Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

Under the cover of night, on the streets of Kyoto.

When enemies meet, they are extremely jealous of each other. When people from seven or eight forces saw each other, they were shocked at first, and then they reacted.

The sixteenth prince was the first to speak angrily, "Prince Chen, I respect you as my elder, but I never thought you would lead people to search my mansion!"

Just as King Chen was about to speak, the night wind suddenly rushed into his throat and he couldn't help coughing twice.

"Cough cough..."

Prince Chen sighed and said, "Sixteenth Prince, Prince Yan was poisoned and the situation is getting worse. I just want to get to the bottom of this case as soon as possible."

It would have been fine if he hadn't said this. As soon as he said this, Chu Xuan became furious: "Why do you want to search my mansion if you want to investigate the case?"

"Because...I suspect His Highness the Sixteenth." Prince Chen stated the reason calmly.

What a suspicion!

Chu Xuan was furious: "Well, you actually dare to doubt me, if you don't give me an explanation for this matter tonight, you will have to rest and leave this place."

At the same time, Prince Teng on the other side looked at the seventeenth prince Chu Yun and angrily said:

"You are so bold to search my palace for no reason. Do you really think that I won't dare to take action against you just because you are a prince?"

Chu Yun raised his eyebrows: "Prince Teng, I just want to find out the truth, you..."

"Excuses, those are all excuses!"

Prince Teng said coldly without waiting for him to speak: "You just want to show off your own power so that you can be in the limelight."

Chu Yun wanted to think of something else, but King Teng didn't give him a chance and immediately ordered: "Go over there and teach them a lesson!"

If he doesn't express his anger today, once the news gets out that Prince Teng's Mansion has been searched by the Seventeenth Prince, he can't afford to lose face.

At the command, the guards of Prince Teng's mansion immediately rushed towards the seventeenth prince.

Chu Yun was furious: "I only searched your mansion, and you wanted to take action. Do you really think I'm afraid?"

"Come on, take action. As long as no one dies, I will take responsibility for everything!"

At this point, no one is willing to admit defeat.

The guards of both sides immediately started fighting each other, and no one dared to use weapons.

Of course, King Wen on the other side couldn't help it and ordered his men to come forward.

As the fighting went on, the groups became increasingly chaotic.

At the beginning, we could still tell each other apart, but as the number of people increased and visibility was poor at night, by the end of the fight, we couldn't tell who was who.

Prince Teng's men beat the seventeenth prince, the seventeenth prince's men beat the sixteenth prince's men, Prince Wen's men beat Prince Teng's men, Prince Chen's men beat Prince Wen's men, but the fifteenth prince's men started fighting with Prince Chen's men again.

The fight went on and on, causing chaos at the scene.

Chu Ning also received the news at this time.

East Palace, Main Hall.

The sound of hurried footsteps disturbed the peace in the hall, and Zhao Yu came quickly.

"Your Highness, the fight has begun!"

Chu Ning chuckled, not surprised, put down the memorial in his hand and asked, "Who fought with whom?"

Zhao Yu looked solemn: "At the beginning, it was a contest between the princes, but in the end it was all chaos, everyone was fighting their own battles."

Unexpectedly, Chu Ning was not surprised when he heard this, but laughed: "Hahahaha, such an interesting story, it's a pity that I can't see it with my own eyes."

"But it's better this way. If they fight, some people will have an opportunity to take advantage of it."

"Tell me what the current situation is in these people's mansions."

All of this was his plan!

Only when all the princes are transferred out of the palace and delayed by the matter, will the people behind the scenes take action.

As expected, Zhao Yu said in a deep voice: "The Jinyiwei just came to report that King Wu has learned of this matter and has sent people to search the residences of the princes and dukes in batches."

This is wanting to be a fisherman.

Chu Ning raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a hint of amusement: "King Wu is quite smart, he wants to take advantage of the opportunity."

"Let our people keep a close eye on him. I want to see what he can find out."

"Yes!" Zhao Yu responded and went downstairs to make arrangements immediately.

At this moment, King Wu was personally leading his men to King Chen's mansion.

"who?"

When the pair of guards left behind by King Wen saw someone coming, they immediately waved their spears to stop them.

King Wu's figure gradually emerged from the darkness under the light of the torches.

When everyone saw that it was King Wu, their faces changed drastically.

After the incident at the palace gate last time, everyone in Kyoto City knew King Wu.

Many people even think that King Wu is a butcher!

Now seeing King Wu coming here in person with his men, King Wen's guards suddenly panicked.

King Wu glanced at King Wen's guards and sneered, "Why, you bastards think you can stop me?"

"I'll give you two choices, either get out or lose your head!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the guards behind him drew their swords. With a clanging sound, streaks of cold light cut through the night sky.

Suddenly, the atmosphere became tense.

When King Wen's guards saw this, their faces turned pale.

If it were anyone else, they would definitely feel it was intimidating.

But this is King Wu, a king who kills without blinking an eye and who dares to bring heads to the palace gate.

How could they not be afraid?

"King Wu, calm down. We will withdraw now."

The leading captain shouted to the people behind him: "Tell the brothers that King Wu is coming, gather the troops and go back!"

Soon, the small team of guards left behind by King Wen immediately withdrew from King Chen's mansion.

King Wu looked very satisfied and waved his hand: "Search for me, don't let any place go."

At the command, the guards rushed into every room and began to search.

King Wu sat in the living room, drinking tea and waiting for news.

A quarter of an hour later, a guard came to report excitedly: "Your Majesty, we have found something!"

King Wu dropped the teacup in his hand and laughed wildly, "Hahahaha, very good, take me over to have a look!"

Led by the guards, King Wu came to a study.

At this moment, a secret compartment on the bookshelf in the northeast corner of the study was opened, and four guards were guarding it.

"Your Highness, I found a bottle of medicine in this secret compartment." The guard handed over the medicine like he was presenting a treasure.

King Wu's eyes lit up, and he immediately stepped forward and took the medicine bottle. There was a small note attached to it with three big words written on it: Heartbreak Grass!

"It's poison indeed!"

King Wu's eyes were cold, and he sneered, "King Chen, you pretend to be sick on weekdays, but you are so cruel when you attack."

"It seems that I underestimated you and almost missed you. Fortunately, I have nothing to do, so I came here to search in person."

"Humph, with this poison, let's see how you can argue."

"Send the order, call back the others, and do everything in your power to find King Chen and capture him!"

The poison is the evidence of the crime, and King Chen will not escape punishment this time.

Next, he only needs to capture King Chen himself, and the credit will be his alone.

If Prince Chen is the one who poisoned and spread the rumors, then the position of Zongzheng must belong to him!

King Wu couldn't help laughing wildly when he thought of the excitement: "No matter how cunning you are, I will still be the one who benefits in the end!"

The next step will be easy, just capture King Chen!
