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

"Who is Wang Yunfei?"

Faced with this sudden name, Chu Ning was completely confused.

Chu Ning knew all the important figures in Kyoto.

But since Wang Yunfei dared to assassinate Mo Yushan and put the blame on him, he must be no ordinary person.

Besides, the Jinyiwei are no pushovers. If there really is such a powerful figure in Kyoto, they would definitely report it.

As soon as the words fell, the leader who was hung up said hurriedly: "Let us down, let us down, and I will tell you his identity!"

As they spoke, beads of sweat the size of beans kept dripping down their foreheads. Their patience had reached its limit.

If I don't let it go, I'm afraid I'll lose my life.

Chu Ning nodded slightly to Ran Ming, and Ran Ming reluctantly let the group of people go.

The five murderers breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath.

If it was any later, they would definitely not be able to hold on!

"Don't delay, speak now!"

Ran Ming, who was already unhappy, glared and kicked him.

The leader said quickly: "Wang Yunfei is the younger brother of Concubine De. We were instructed by him to assassinate Mo Yushan and put the blame on His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu."

Chu Ning suddenly understood.

Concubine De, the mother of the Fourth Prince, was the concubine in the palace who was favored by the Emperor.

It is precisely because of the existence of Concubine De that the Fourth Prince is so favored.

But I didn't expect that Defei's brother would be so bold and presumptuous that he dared to kill someone outside the city of Kyoto and put the blame on him!

I'm afraid this matter is not as simple as it seems.

How could a mere brother of Concubine De be so courageous?

Thinking of this, Chu Ning's eyes turned cold, and he asked in a deep voice: "Does Wang Yunfei hold any position in the court?"

The leader shook his head and said, "No, although Wang Yunfei is the younger brother of Concubine De, he is arrogant and domineering. Concubine De is worried that he will bring trouble to the Fourth Prince, so she did not ask for an official position for him.

However, the Empress Defei relied on the favor of His Majesty and gave him a title of Marquis, a large house in the city, and some fields outside the city. "

Chu Ning's mouth twitched.

Although he knew that some people in the city were corrupt and nepotistic, he did not expect the emperor to be the same.

Just because he doted on Concubine De, he conferred the title of Marquis on her younger brother.

You have to know that this prince was only conferred the title of a prince at the beginning.

But Wang Yunfei had no military achievements and no talent, and he was made a marquis only because his sister was favored!

At this moment, even Chu Ning couldn't help but feel murderous!

"I see!"

Chu Ning sneered: "In that case, Wang Yunfei was instructed by Concubine De, otherwise how could he dare to kill Mo Yushan and even put the blame on me?

Concubine De was afraid that it was because of the matter of her fourth brother that she thought Mo Yushan was under the command of the Crown Prince, so she wanted to kill him.

Moreover, if I kill Mo Yushan now, I can also put the blame on this king, killing two birds with one stone!"

The coldness in his tone and the murderous intent in his eyes could no longer be contained.

Since the other party wanted to kill him, there was no need for him to show mercy.

This time, he not only wants to capture Wang Yunfei, but also Concubine De!

Otherwise, considering how favored Concubine De is, if she were to whisper in the emperor's ear in the future, the emperor, who already dislikes her, would probably take action against her!

However, if you want to take down Concubine De, you have to plan carefully.

After all, she is one of the four great concubines and the most favored one in the harem. It is not easy to take her down.

Thinking of this, Chu Ning made a prompt decision: "Take the five of them away and keep them under strict guard. No one can see them without my order!"

"Yes!" The palace guards immediately pulled the five killers out.

"Ran Ming!"

"exist!"

"Send someone to invite Jia Yu here immediately!"

"Yes!" Ran Ming responded and immediately went down to make arrangements.

Half an hour later, Jia Yu came as ordered.

"See His Royal Highness the King of Chu!"

"You know everything."

Chu Ning said calmly: "De Fei is now the most favored person, but she is hostile to this king. Do you understand what to do?"

There are some things he doesn't need to say explicitly. With Jia Yu's intelligence, he will definitely understand what he means.

Jia Yu remained calm and said slowly, "Your Highness, have you made up your mind? If you really want to take this step, it would be like telling His Majesty that you want to seize the throne!"

Attacking someone in the harem, especially the most favored Concubine De, is no small matter.

The one who dotes on Concubine De is the Emperor, and attacking Concubine De is a provocation to the Emperor.

If this matter is not handled properly, it will definitely cause the emperor's anger.

But Chu Ning chuckled when he heard this: "Of course I know this, but now that things have come to this, if I don't get rid of her, she will definitely find ways to get rid of me in the future.

With such a dangerous enemy around, this king can't sleep at night, so naturally I have to strike first.

As for the consequences you mentioned, I am naturally aware of them, otherwise I would not have asked you for advice."

He won't show mercy just because she's a woman.

Anyone who wants to harm him, and has the ability to harm him, must not be allowed to stay.

However, this matter involved too many things, and he was not very confident that he could kill Concubine De without letting the emperor take action.

That's why he invited Jia Yu to discuss the matter.

Wouldn't it be a waste to leave such a top strategist unused?

Seeing Chu Ning's firm attitude, Jia Yu narrowed his eyes, flashed a cold light and said:

"Since Your Highness has already seen the situation, then I will tell you straight away. If you want to kill Concubine De, you have to let her leave the palace!"

Chu Ning nodded slightly, agreeing very much.

Given the emperor's favor for Concubine De, it was not easy to kill her in the palace.

But here comes the problem.

If it is impossible to kill Concubine De in the palace, then she can only be killed outside the palace.

However, Concubine De was a member of the harem and it was impossible for her to leave the palace without special circumstances.

Looking at Jia Yu who was bowing his head, Chu Ning's eyes lit up: "It seems that Lord Jia has already made a plan. Tell me about it."

Jia Yu chuckled and slowly told his plan.

The more Chu Ning listened, the wider his eyes widened.

After listening to it, he couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Others say that this king is despicable and shameless, but compared to you, this king is just an honest man."

Jia Yu laughed awkwardly and didn't dare to respond.

You must be kidding. If you, the King of Chu, are an honest man, then there will be no honest people in the world.

Of course, he didn't dare say this out loud.

Seeing Jia Yu didn't say anything, Chu Ning shook his head and said, "Okay, this plan is good, let's do it as you said.

However, if this succeeds, our next plan to seize the throne will have to be advanced!

Have the Royal Guards keep a close eye on us and be careful that our father does not contact the major families and nobles in the city."

"I understand!" Jia Yu bowed and turned to leave.

What happens next is of great importance. If it succeeds, it will be a great achievement.

Even a figure like Jia Yu couldn't help but get excited at this moment.

Chu Ning looked at Jia Yu's departing back, a look of satisfaction appearing on his face.

As expected, he is a poison expert who was brought back with great effort, his brain is really useful!

Next, we just have to wait for tomorrow’s show.

Concubine De, you won’t live long!

Of course, he won't let Wang Yunfei go either.
