Royal daughter-in-law makes money
Chapter 259 The Escaped Assassin
Chapter 259
"Dongsheng, pay close attention to the movements outside the mansion. If anyone approaches, arrest them immediately!" Qiao Anan ordered coldly.
Do you really think Joan is a soft persimmon?
"Second...Miss, there are secret guards outside the mansion." Bai Lu originally wanted to call her the Second Prince's Consort, but then she thought, Qiao Anan treated her as her own, so calling her Miss would definitely be more intimate, which meant that she was Qiao Anan's person.
"The secret guards are the secret guards, and our own people are our own people!" Qiao Anan naturally knew that there were secret guards watching outside the mansion, but what if the secret guards didn't care?
"Yes!" Bai Lu didn't say anything else. Anyway, all the secret guards had to do was obey the orders.
"Qiuju, go and see if the master and the mistress are in the mansion, and ask them to stay out for the next two days." Qiao Anan ordered again.
After Qiao Anan finished giving the order, she still felt that it was not enough. She must make sure that the Liu family received the punishment they deserved.
When Chu Yuanming heard the report from the secret guard, he was so shocked that he almost fell off his chair.
"You said the Liu family wanted to kill the Qiao family to silence them?" Chu Yuanming couldn't believe it. How could the Liu family be so bold?
This is the capital, right here under the feet of the emperor, and the Liu family is so bold as to kill the prince's wife and his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Is he too gentle in his actions?
If he can't even protect his daughter-in-law and in-laws, then he shouldn't sit on the throne and should just find a place to grow sweet potatoes.
"You said that the Liu family has prepared kerosene?" Chu Yuanming was so anxious after hearing this. His son was running around for him outside, and his wife was at home, and she was about to be burned to death.
Just thinking about it makes me sad.
"Yes, we have prepared quite a lot. I guess we don't intend to leave anyone alive." Liu Feng replied.
"The Liu family is really great. Have you found out who is behind the Liu family?" Chu Yuanming felt a pang of fear in his heart. The small Liu family dared to be so arrogant. The person behind them should not be underestimated.
"Liu Yucheng's daughter entrusted someone, and you, Your Majesty, also know that person." After Liuyun finished speaking, he lowered his head. After all, this person's identity was not simple.
"Who?" Chu Yuanming asked coldly, wondering in his heart who that person was.
"Wang Ye." Liuyun said coldly.
"What? How could it be him?" Chu Yuanming frowned. He never expected that the man would be Wang Ye.
"According to Miss Liu, all the money Liu Yucheng extorted was given to Wang Ye, who then gave it to another person. As for the people they abducted, they didn't say where they sent them. I think Miss Liu has been living in the capital and doesn't know what's going on in Liucheng." Liuyun analyzed carefully.
"Send someone to keep an eye on Wang Ye." Chu Yuanming said, tapping the table lightly.
Then he thought, if Liu Yucheng really burned down the Qiao family tonight, it would cost a lot of money to rebuild the Qiao family, and that money might have to come from his pocket.
Considering that the only princes outside now are Prince Dong'an and Prince Lin'an, and Prince Lin'an is currently on his way back to the capital, there is no guarantee that he may not still have his minions in the capital.
"Liuyun, send someone to deliver a letter to Liu Yucheng and Wang Ye." Chu Yuanming said again.
He waved casually, asked Liuyun to come over, and told him to do it.
"Wang Dong!" Chu Yuanming watched Liuyun leave, and felt that this was not enough, so he called in Wang Dong, the leader of the imperial guards.
"Your Majesty, I am here!" When Wang Dong heard Chu Yuanming's words, he quickly knelt in front of Chu Yuanming, waiting for Yang Yuanming's instructions.
"You lead your men to search for people all over the capital, and tell them that an assassin has escaped. Anyone found to be acting strangely will be arrested and thrown into jail. Be extremely careful with the things you transport, especially dangerous items like kerosene. Once discovered, they will all be confiscated." Chu Yuanming added.
"Yes!"
As soon as Prince Dong'an arrived in the capital, he found that guards were everywhere searching for something in the city.
"Zheng An, go and find out why the security in the capital has been strengthened?" Dong'an King Chu Hongyuan frowned and asked Zheng An to ask why there were guards everywhere.
Prince Dong'an wondered in his heart, could it be that the news of his secret return to the capital had leaked out?
"Brother Xiaoer, this capital city is different. I see guards everywhere on the streets. Are they like this on weekdays?" Zheng An asked the waiter beside him casually.
"I heard that there is an assassin who escaped from the capital. Look, the imperial guards are searching the capital for the assassin. Sir, you are from another place, right? Don't worry, just stay out of the streets." The waiter kindly advised.
"Thank you, Brother Er." Zheng An returned to the box after hearing that.
"Your Highness, it is said that an assassin entered the palace and escaped. He is being hunted throughout the city." Zheng An came back and hurriedly said to Prince Dong'an.
"What a coincidence?" Prince Dong'an said with a frown.
"Your Highness, should we contact Liu Yucheng and Lord Wang as soon as possible?" Zheng An asked.
"Has the message been delivered?" Prince Dong'an frowned, thinking to himself that Liu Yu didn't know what was going on. Recently, fewer and fewer people were delivering the message.
Wang Ye hadn't sent any money for a long time, which was why King Dong'an had to go to Beijing to find the two of them.
"I will deliver the letter to the two governments right away." Zheng An said, then quietly retreated.
When Liu Yucheng received the letter, he was both excited and nervous. He did not expect that Prince Dong'an would also come to Beijing.
Liu Yucheng also didn't know whether the prince would punish him when he found out that all his money was spent by his good-for-nothing daughter.
However, since the prince summoned him, he had to go. It seemed that the plan to massacre the Qiao family tonight would have to be postponed.
"Master, this is bad. There are a lot more guards outside today. Our people were captured as soon as they went out." Dongjin ran in and said anxiously.
"Why arrest them?" Liu Yucheng frowned. How could this be such a coincidence? Could it be that the Prince of Dong'an had been discovered?
"I heard that an assassin escaped from the palace. Guards are searching everywhere in the capital. Any suspicious person they find will be locked up first." Dong Jin said quickly.
"If that's the case, then let's just ignore it for now. Those people will be released eventually." Liu Yucheng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. They were not assassins, so there would be no problem.
At most, he may be locked up until the assassin is caught.
"But, sir, all the kerosene we prepared has been taken away." Dong Jin said in a low voice.
"?" Liu Yucheng didn't react for a moment. It would be fine if he just arrested the person, but he even took the things away. This was a bit suspicious.
"Let everyone be careful first. Don't go out if there's nothing wrong. Let's wait until this storm is over." Liu Yucheng thought for a while and said. After all, Prince Dong'an is in the capital. If they get into trouble, there is no guarantee that they will not drag down the prince.
When the time comes, he will say that the situation has been very tense recently and it will take some time to return the money.
