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

"A fight broke out? Who fought with whom?"

inside the house.

When Chu Ning heard the voice of Thirteenth Prince Chu Kuang outside, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Princess Changping's eyes lit up and she shouted, "Come in and talk!"

Chu Kuang rushed in with excitement on his face and shouted, "Eighteenth brother, the Bai family's people and Yan Wuji's people are fighting!"

Why would they start fighting for no reason?

Chu Ning asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Aren't they united to deal with me? Why are they losing their composure?"

Zhao Kuang had a wicked smile on his face: "I heard that Bai Zong sent someone to meet Yan Wuji, but he didn't expect to be discovered by Yan Wuji. The two sides had a disagreement and fought each other."

"Eighteenth brother, don't worry about this matter. Just focus on recuperating and I will go over to take a look."

Princess Changping also looked curious: "It's really unexpected that these two people fought, but Bai Zong sent people to monitor Yan Wuji. Does he think that Yan Wuji sent people to assassinate you?"

Chu Ning raised his eyebrows: "This possibility cannot be ruled out. After all, Yan State and my Chu State have a grudge against each other, and there is still fierce fighting on the front line. If there is a chance to get rid of us, he will definitely seize the opportunity."

Most of the people from other dynasties who came this time had good relations with them, except for Yan and Wei.

But Cao Zhang of Wei was just an ordinary man with a personality similar to that of Chu Kuang, so it was impossible for him to arrange such a meticulous assassination plan.

However, Yan Wuji usually keeps a low profile and no one knows his character.

Maybe, this person really did it.

Thinking of this, Chu Ning said in a deep voice: "Eleventh Brother, go over and take a look, but don't cause any trouble. Just watch from a distance. If you have any news, send someone back to inform me immediately."

Chu Kuang chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I'm just going over to watch the fun."

Princess Changping frowned and said, "Forget it, I'd better go with you to prevent you from causing trouble."

Chu Kuang is the only one among the three princes who is not injured, and she doesn't want anything to happen to Chu Kuang at this time.

Although Chu Kuang was reluctant, he could only curl his lips and leave together.

Chu Ning looked at the two of them as they left, a thoughtful look on his face.

This assassination was so strange, yet so meticulous. Who was the mastermind behind it?

All four brothers were attacked, which was clearly aimed at Da Chu.

Now, the only countries that have grudges against Great Chu are Yan and Wei. Could it be that Yan Wuji and Cao Zhang did it?

Or, could it be that these two people worked together?

Until there is solid evidence, everyone is a suspect.

Even the Qin Emperor Ying Zheng was a suspect.

After all, Yingzheng never wanted Princess Changping to marry someone from another dynasty, but after seeing his battle with Bai Zong, perhaps the other party felt that he was a threat, so they wanted to get rid of him.

However, as the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, Ying Zheng did not dare to send troops to encircle and suppress the rebellion blatantly, so he had to resort to this inferior strategy.

After all, such a meticulous plan must have been planned in advance.

The person who got the news in advance that Bai Zong was entertaining other people and dared to take action in Yangcheng was none other than Ying Zheng.

Judging from the timing and strength of the crime, it is entirely possible that Ying Zheng was the mastermind behind the crime.

The only doubt is that this incident in Yangcheng had some impact on the Qin State.

However, the suspicion of wanting to send Ying Zheng is also very simple.

Now that he is in the palace, if Ying Zheng wants to kill him, he has a hundred ways to do it.

So, next we just have to see whether Ying Zheng will take action against him!

If you don't enter a tiger's den, you can't get a tiger's son.

He chose to stay in the palace just to see whether Ying Zheng would take action.

But now it seems that Yingzheng shows no signs of taking action.

If Ying Zheng wanted to kill him, he only needed to ask the imperial physician to tamper with the medicine, or ask the maid to add something to the medicine.

But from last night till now, everything has been fine.

"Who is this murderer?"

This was the first time Chu Ning felt the pressure. The other party was hiding too deeply.

While he was deep in thought, Zhao Yu's voice came from outside the room: "Your Highness, the eldest prince of Jin is here."

"Let him in."

A moment later, Ji Yinghao came into the house with some supplements.

Looking at Chu Ning who was bandaged, he couldn't help but frown and asked, "How is the injury of His Royal Highness Prince Chu?"

Chu Ning sighed and shook his head: "I won't die, but I'm afraid I need to rest for a few days."

Ji Yinghao narrowed his eyes, his face full of confusion: "I don't understand. You have a brave general like General Zhao Yu and the Thirteenth Prince by your side, and you have white horse cavalry by your side. Even if you were ambushed, you shouldn't be injured."

This guy is actually also suspicious.

Chu Ning chuckled: "Does the eldest prince think that this matter was arranged by me?"

Ji Yinghao's expression changed slightly: "Your Highness, Prince Chu, please don't misunderstand me. I just want to find out the whole story."

"This time Princess Changping is seeking a husband, and this prince is determined to win. If I can marry Princess Changping, this prince will definitely become the crown prince."

"Therefore, I must investigate this matter thoroughly so that I can show my face in front of the Emperor of Qin and Princess Changping."

It turned out that he was investigating the matter so actively because he was looking for a wife.

This is human nature. After all, being able to get to the bottom of this matter is also a favor to the Qin Dynasty.

When choosing a wife, the Emperor of Qin would definitely show favoritism.

Moreover, if he could get to the bottom of this matter, it would mean that he was capable, and maybe he could even gain the favor of Princess Changping.

"I see!"

Chu Ning smiled and said, "It seems that the eldest prince wants to use this as a springboard. Use your own ability to find out the truth about this matter."

"But I can tell you clearly that this matter was not arranged by me. Besides, my twelfth brother was killed. No matter how cruel I am, I can't kill my own brothers, right?"

Ji Yinghao fell silent.

Although he was skeptical about Chu Ning's words, he knew that Chu Ning's personality was indeed not something Chu Ning would do.

If it was really Chu Ning who did it, he would not give the Eleventh Prince a chance to survive and would definitely kill him together.

With a long sigh, Ji Yinghao showed a helpless look: "In the opinion of the King of Chu, who could have done this?"

Chu Ning pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Although Yan Wuji and Cao Zhang are the most suspicious on the surface, I always feel that this matter could not have been done by them."

"After all, they are not fools. They are not on good terms with our Chu State. How could they dare to take action at this time? Those who are too suspicious may become scapegoats."

"The one who is really likely to win is the Han champion, Hou Huo Quji. This man is very thoughtful and has many elite soldiers and generals under his command!"

"If Huo Quji takes action, he won't be suspicious, and Yan Wuji and Cao Zhang can also take the blame."

"On the other hand, I played a trick on Liu Che during the Han Dynasty. Huo Quji may want to avenge Liu Che this time."

Ji Yinghao's eyes lit up: "That makes sense. It seems that I should investigate this matter first and put Cao Zhang aside for now."

After saying that, he bowed to Chu Ning and said, "Thank you, King Chu, for your advice. Without further ado, I will go and investigate right away!"

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left without waiting for Chu Ning to speak.

But he didn't know that Chu Ning looked at his departing back with a playful look on his face.
