Chapter 679: Was the assassination done by the eldest princess? Debauched!
In the end, Zhaoming left with a gloomy look on his face.
Seeing this, Showa followed.
She herself is in trouble, so it’s best not to provoke Baili Moqing anymore.
After the two princesses left, only Shu He, Baili Moqing, Baili Moqi, Shen Chuan and Shen Yao were left in the wedding hall.
Yi'er was coaxed away by the Third Princess and Baili Rushu and others. They knew that the Seventh Master and his wife still had something to discuss.
Before leaving, Yier looked at "Uncle Ghost Face" worriedly.
Zhenli, Nanqi, Xizhu and Beiji stood together outside the courtyard in the distance, their eyes fixed on the situation in the hall.
On the other side stood the guards of Shen Yao and Shen Lanzhi, also four people.
"What do you think is Shen Chuan's purpose in coming to Beijing this time?"
Nanqi stared at the ghost mask inside and didn't believe that he was just here to attend the wedding.
Xi Zhu's face showed a bit of solemnity, "This morning, the prince asked me to investigate the Three Killing Sect, and I have made some progress."
After hearing this, the others looked over with frowns on their faces.
Nan Qi asked excitedly, "What did you find out? Did you find out who's behind this?"
Last night, someone unexpectedly came to General Zhenhe's residence to assassinate him! If the master hadn't been sober, they would all be dead by now!
Xi Zhu shook his head. "He's not the mastermind behind this. But the people from the Liangce Camp found out that one of the leaders of the Three Killing Sect is from the Northern Di royal family."
"The Northern Di royal family?" Nanqi's eyes involuntarily fixed on Shen Chuan. "Are you saying that the person who went to the general's mansion to assassinate last night might have been Shen Chuan?"
After hearing what Nanqi said, Beiji said in a deep voice, "It shouldn't be Shen Chuan."
"Why do you think so?" Xi Zhu asked him with his head tilted.
He felt that it was Shen Chuan.
"The princess has many businesses in Beidi, and the person who benefits the most is Shen Chuan."
"If Shen Chuan kills the princess, his income in Beidi will be greatly reduced. And right now, Beidi is unstable. He needs money the most now, so he won't choose to cut off his own source of income!"
Zhenli nodded, thinking that what he said made sense.
Shu He is a cash cow for Beidi, and her Qi Condensation Pill is also very important in the Beidi army.
Although Tianqi is not afraid of Beidi’s Divine Armor Army, it does not mean that other countries are not afraid!
Yunlai, Natu, Qingzhu, these countries have been coveting the Qi Condensation Pill for a long time!
However, Shu He did not make the Qi Condensation Pills available to the outside world in large quantities, so apart from Tianqi and Beidi, no one else could use the Qi Condensation Pills in the army in such large quantities.
In the past six months, Beidi has conquered all the tribes in the north, south, and northwest of Beidi because of the existence of the Divine Armor Army, and its strength is now growing little by little.
If it wasn't Shen Chuan, who else could it be?
Nanqi remembered something and said to the others, "Today, I was driving the carriage for my master and heard him and the princess talking in the carriage. From what they said, it seemed like the child in the eldest princess's womb might be the son of a prince from Beidi!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all shocked eyes fell on Shen Yao, who was wearing a black wolf-patterned robe.
These people are all smart. Even a thick-skinned person like Nanqi can guess without thinking who is the person most likely to be involved with the eldest princess.
"So, you suspect that the assassin yesterday was sent by Shen Yao? Is it because you're afraid that the princess will reveal the news that the princess is pregnant?"
Xizhu now feels that this possibility is the one closest to the truth.
"Shen Yao is out!"
Zhenli, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke, shutting up the others.
Several pairs of eyes looked over and saw Shen Yao shaking his sleeves and leaving the table angrily.
In the wedding hall, Baili Moqi, dressed in red, sat in the main seat with a faint smile on his face, but that smile was obviously lacking some warmth.
Baili Moqing and Shu He both looked normal, while Shen Chuan, wearing a mask, sat motionless, showing no emotion at all.
When Shen Yao passed by Zhen Li and the others, his sharp gaze almost pierced through them.
These are all Beidi's powerful enemies. Perhaps, he should find someone to clean up all of Baili Moqing's right-hand men!
Zhenli felt the murderous intent from him, and the eyes under the silver mask also revealed a strong murderous intent.
He stared at him, as if warning him not to act rashly, otherwise, he wouldn't mind letting Beidi lose a prince!
Shen Yao understood the threat in his eyes, snorted coldly, and walked away from them.
Zhenli gave Xizhu a look, and he immediately understood and quietly retreated.
In the wedding hall, Baili Moqing stood up, took Shu He's hand and turned to leave.
In response to this, Baili Moqi's face stiffened slightly, but his smile remained perfect.
Seeing them coming out, Nanqi went to greet them, "Master."
"Let's go and attend Lao Ba's wedding banquet." Baili Moqing smiled lightly, as if nothing had happened.
"Write down what delicious food you find. When the king gets married in a few days, have someone make an upgrade on these dishes."
His wedding banquet will have to be several times more spectacular than Lao Ba’s!
At the dinner, the front yard of Prince Zhao's mansion was filled with banquet tables. Those of higher rank sat at a table alone, while those of lower rank sat at tables of four or eight.
At the banquet table, everyone was talking and laughing. Except for the fact that the eldest princess was pregnant, they did not dare to mention it, but they talked about everything else with great interest.
Almost everyone was talking about the dispute between Shu He and Prince Li, as if this marriage was not between Baili Moqi and Shen Ziyan, but between Baili Moqing and Shu He.
Although Baili Moqi had issued a gag order regarding the eldest princess's pregnancy, no matter how closely the news was kept, it could not escape the emperor's ears.
Inside the Taiji Hall, the emperor was painting a landscape painting in his inner study.
There are green mountains and lush forests above, and an old pavilion with a vicissitudes of life in the lower right. A person is standing in the pavilion, with his hands behind his back, looking up, as if envying the waterfall rushing down the mountain.
After hearing Liu Qin's words, the slender wolf-hair brush in his hand stopped, and his expression became a little stagnant.
"You said Zhaoming is pregnant?"
Liu Qin lowered his head and said softly, "Although I can't confirm it, it was Princess Li who said it herself."
They had all heard that Shu He was a doctor. Since she said such words in public, it should not be a joke.
Suddenly, there was a loud thud of a pen slamming down, causing Liu Qin to fall to his knees. "Your Majesty, please calm down!"
"debauchery!!"
With a curse, Liu Qin fell to the ground.
He didn't dare to listen to this!
This is the emperor’s biological sister!
"Let her come to see me! Now!"
The exquisite painting was torn into countless pieces by the raging anger. Liu Qin hurriedly stood up, but he didn't know that a piece of rice paper was stuck on his back, which was exactly the corner of the old pavilion.
"I will go and pass on the order right away!"
Just as he was about to leave, he heard the emperor say again, "Ask Zhang Qiong to prepare a bowl of medicine!"
When Liu Qin heard this, his frightened eyes trembled suddenly, and a hint of fear appeared in the depths of his eyes.
"Slave understands."
