Chapter 195 Who Goes to Wild Wolf Mountain

The imperial court searched Wild Wolf Mountain for seven days and finally found the body of the Third Prince...

The whereabouts of the King of Northern Frontier are still unknown.

Suddenly, there was turmoil throughout the government and the country.

One is the son of Concubine Hu who has the greatest hope of ascending the throne, and the other is a prince who commands 100,000 border troops.

The King of Northern Frontier is missing, but the news of the Third Prince's death is real, and even his body is on the way back.

Concubine Hu and the Hu family were devastated.

"No! That's impossible..."

Concubine Hu sat in the hall in disbelief, holding the news from the Hu family's secret guards.

"Yao'er was clearly going to take over the Northern Army, how could he..."

Even if it didn't work, how could he die in Wild Wolf Mountain!

He was a prince, yet he ended up being torn apart by wild wolves and his body was mutilated!

Suddenly, Concubine Hu's trembling shoulders paused, and her eyes became stern:

"No news yet about Xiao Yan?"

The man kneeling on the ground bowed his head and answered:

"The people from the Ministry of War and our people are all looking for him, but there is no trace of the King of Northern Frontier in Wild Wolf Mountain."

"No trace... Ha!"

What a traceless one!

Concubine Hu's eyes turned red, and she gripped the armrest tightly. The armor broke with a "crack", and bright red blood oozes from her fingertips.

When the palace maid saw this, she almost screamed out in shock and hurriedly found medicine to treat her master, but was opened by Concubine Hu.

"check!"

"Investigate them one by one to find out who murdered my son! Since they've done something so extreme, no one should have an easy life..."

The Hu family began to go crazy, and the fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh princes, who had been suppressed by the third prince and the Hu family, emerged one after another and began to fight for the power that originally belonged to the third prince.

Only the eldest prince Ming Wang, who was like an invisible man in the court, actually proposed to personally pick up his two younger brothers and bring them back to the capital.

The ministers in the court still had high praise for the eldest prince who had left the court early.

The current emperor has no legitimate son. Prince Ming is the eldest son and the only prince besides the ninth prince to be crowned king. However, he obtained the throne at the cost of nearly losing his life.

Prince Ming blocked poison for Your Majesty in his early years, and since then his health has deteriorated and he has been bedridden. As the eldest son, he has no chance of ascending the throne.

But the good thing is that no matter which prince comes to the throne, he will not suppress this sickly elder brother.

Now the Prince of Ming is ten years old, and he is both civil and military, so the Prince of Ming’s Palace has a successor.

After King Ming proposed to go and pick up his two younger brothers, the court and the people had a much higher opinion of him.

The emperor finally recovered some of his spirit and planned to summon several ministers to the imperial study.

Before the people arrived, the leader of the secret guards reported to him the movements of several princes in the past few days.

The third brother died.

The brothers below were not only sad, but also jumped up and down, only concerned with gathering power and suppressing their brothers.

"Minister Yuan met with a steward from the Third Prince's residence at Baoyue Tower yesterday."

"Duke Dingguo's Mansion sent a team of death squads to Wild Wolf Mountain last night."

"Your Majesty the Prince of Ming began mobilizing the imperial guards yesterday to head towards Wild Wolf Mountain, and they are currently on their way to the palace..."

The emperor sat there with his eyes half closed, not saying a word.

The old eunuch took a look and then just stood there obediently looking at his eyes and nose.

Your Majesty's health has been deteriorating over the years, and several older princes have been taking turns to take power in the court.

Tsk, now even His Majesty the King of Light has gotten involved.

He had followed His Majesty his entire life, yet he still couldn't figure out what this person was thinking...

"Old Nine defeated the Northern Barbarians this year. I heard that he has food?"

Suddenly, the emperor turned the topic to the person from the northern border.

The old man and the leader of the secret guards were both stunned.

The latter bowed his head and replied, "Your Majesty, at the beginning of this year, the King of Northern Frontier purchased a large amount of food and fodder from the merchants of Wushuang City."

"Wushuang City, merchant?"

The emperor raised his lips and said, "Over the years, Wushuang City has had close exchanges with the Northern Frontier."

As early as the beginning of the year, he issued an order that due to the severe drought this year, the trade of goods, especially grain, between the north and the south was not allowed. The garrison commander of Wushuang City was quite courageous.

Neither the old eunuch nor the leader of the secret guards spoke.

The emperor asked again, "Last year, Lao Jiu went south and stayed in a small town for several months. Is that the place with high-yield crops?"

"Exactly."

The leader of the secret guards replied.

Just as the two continued to ponder the deeper meaning of His Majesty's questions, His Majesty waved his hand and asked the commander of the secret guards to withdraw.

The old eunuch saw several figures appear at the door and reminded:

"Your Majesty, Minister Chen and others have arrived."

"Xuan."

The old eunuch bowed and went out.

After a while, the six ministers and two dukes came in.

After several ministers paid their respects, His Majesty asked them to stand up, but nothing else happened.

Seeing His Majesty's haggard face, several ministers looked at each other in confusion.

Finally, Duke Dingguo stood up. Just as he was about to say something, he heard the eunuch announce that His Royal Highness Mingwang had arrived.

The emperor opened his eyes and watched his eldest son walk in, coughing every three steps and panting every two steps.

"My son, I have met my father."

The emperor looked at the top of his eldest son's head and spoke calmly.

"Stand up. You're not feeling well. Why did you come to the palace instead of staying at home to recuperate?"

Ming Wang coughed twice and knelt down directly.

"I shouldn't have come when Father summoned the ministers. I was just worried about my third and ninth brothers..."

"I also ask for your permission, Father, to allow me to personally go to Wild Wolf Mountain and bring back my third and ninth brothers!"

The King had already said this during the morning court session, but Your Majesty did not agree at that time.

Several ministers did not expect that King Ming would actually come to the Imperial Study to ask for help.

You know, His Majesty Ming Wang's body looks even more fragile than His Majesty's current body.

If I leave Beijing, I might not even be able to come back alive...

Duke Dingguo immediately stood up:

"Your Majesty! Although His Majesty is concerned about the two princes, he cannot disregard his own safety!"

"In my opinion, it would be better to send the Sixth Prince. Firstly, to investigate the missing King of Northern Frontier, and secondly, to welcome the Third Prince back to the capital."

That’s right, Duke Dingguo’s granddaughter is the Sixth Prince’s wife.

When the Sixth Prince sent people on the way for the Third Prince and others to return to the capital, the Duke Dingguo's Mansion was involved.

Although the later incidents involving the Third Prince and the King of Northern Frontier had nothing to do with them, the final outcome was not bad.

Although no one knew why Ming Wang suddenly appeared at this time, he was just a sickly person and there was nothing to be afraid of.

They also wanted to know whether the King of Northern Frontier was dead or not...

In addition to Duke Dingguo, two other ministers also recommended the fourth prince and the seventh prince.

However, His Majesty kept all the ministers' suggestions to himself and did not give any definite answer.

Instead, he asked about the riots in the south, the drought in various places, and this year's spring plowing...

……

On a mountain two hills away from Wild Wolf Mountain,

Xiao Yan and the others, who had recovered most of their strength, successfully reunited with the people sent by the military advisor.

Fei Yu asked, "Master, the Third Prince is dead, and Wild Wolf Mountain is now full of people investigating from all sides. When can we leave?"

They were forced into that situation by a pack of wild wolves, and Feiyu couldn't swallow this.

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that those wild wolves are controlled by humans!

Xiao Yan did not answer.

He had news from the capital in his hands.

These days, not only Yelang Mountain is bustling, but also Shangjing.

What surprised him was not only his father's attitude, but also the eldest brother he had only met a few times...

After thinking about it, Xiao Yan said:

"Go over there and set up a cave. We'll go there tomorrow and throw the man we capture into Lao Liu's mansion."

Since they want to find it, let them find it!

But what on earth does his father, the emperor, want to do...
