Chapter 198: Liu Concubine's sudden death

When King Xian returned to the palace, he claimed to have an acute illness. Since then, the gate of King Xian’s palace has never been opened again.

6 Qingyun didn't understand and asked Zhu Jingfeng, "Why did Your Highness save the wise king again? Then have we done everything we made before?"

At that time, the three of them were sitting in the garden of Fu's mansion drinking tea. Fu Wenchang smiled but did not say anything when he heard this, while Gu Shaolan poured each of them a cup of tea.

Zhu Jingfeng held up a teacup and looked at the birds singing and flowers all over the yard. Thinking of what Zhao Yawei told him, he said lightly, "My mother asked me to let the wise king go. I have the truth of my mother. Besides, our original intention was to create a gap between King Fu and King Xian. Without the will of the father, who could kill a prince?"

Gu Shaolan said, "I thought King Fu would not let King Xian go, but I didn't expect that he still had this mind."

Fu Wenchang said, "It's not that he has a broad mind, but that his counselor is powerful."

"I always heard you talk about King Fu's master before, but who have you ever seen his master?" 6 Qingyun looked at the three of them curiously.

All three shook their heads.

Zhu Jingfeng said, "When King Fu made great contributions to eradicating Wuhua Palace in the Demon Sect in Jianghu, his father asked about his master. However, King Fu said that the man was a knight in Jianghu, who had been invisible for many years, and his figure was uncertain. He politely declined his father's wish to reward his master on the grounds that his master had traveled all over the world. Now it seems that the man has been giving advice to him behind King Fu."

"I don't know where the Master Fu recruited such an expert." 6 Qingyun expressed his gratitude.

Zhu Jingfeng lowered his eyes halfway and said something unrelated to each other, "Do you know Taoist Master Wen Hengwen?"

Gu Shaolan nodded, "I've heard of it."

Fu Wenchang looked at Zhu Jingfeng with doubts in his eyes.

6 Qingyun shouted, "Isn't it your father's first favorite minister? He has refined the immortal pill for your father. Now he is running away, why do you ask him?"

Zhu Jingfeng replied calmly, "It's nothing. I heard that King Fu sent someone to look for him everywhere, and I was just curious."

But Wenchang frowned slightly, "King Fu looked for Taoist Master Wen? It shouldn't be for the purpose of arresting him."

At this time, Fu Gongjin, the Minister of Justice, walked towards the four of them from afar. Except for Zhu Jingfeng, the other three stood up and saluted.

After Fu Gongjin bowed to Zhu Jingfeng, he sat down beside Zhu Jingfeng as he said. Zhu Jingfeng poured him a cup of tea, and Fu Gongjin hurriedly took it over.

Zhu Jingfeng said with a smile, "Thank you, Lord Fu, for your help this time."

Fu Gongjin repeatedly said, "It should be, this is the responsibility of the Wei minister."

Zhu Jingfeng said, "What does Lord Fu think about this matter?"

Fu Wenchang thought for a while and said, "If you can't do anything, it's better to help you in time. It's better to be grateful than to make people hate you."

Zhu Jingfeng smiled, "Mr. Fu is wise and tells the secret of heaven in one word."

Fu Gongjin was humble and asked again, "I didn't expect that this time it would be Lord Lang who submitted it to the Ministry of Justice for investigation. Isn't he the one of King Fu? Logically, if King Fu directly asked King Fu to investigate this matter, the King of Virtue would probably not be able to turn it over."

Several people were puzzled, and Fu Wenchang said, "Can Lord Lang want to sell His Highness one?"

Fu Gongjin said, "Lang Qi is very treacherous and will not do things that make people lose their word on that occasion. His purpose will definitely not be simple."

Zhu Jingfeng didn't say anything, if he could use it for his own use...

Rongwang Mansion

Zhu Jingyu and Bai Hongling saw Bai Haotian away at the door of the royal palace. Yu Guang glanced at the street and said to Bai Hongling, "I will go out."

Bai Hongling asked, "Can you want to keep food?"

Zhu Jingyu thought for a while and shook her head.

The carriage stopped at the back door of Qingfeng Academy, and Zhu Jingyu went up to a private room on the second floor from another staircase.

When the middle-aged man in the private room saw Zhu Jingyu coming in, he stood up and saluted him, "Yan Chi meets the Lord."

Zhu Jingyu waved his hand and said, "Why shouldn't Lord Lang be busy with this disease every day? Why are you so idle now that you come to see me in broad daylight?"

Yan Chi also made a clear journey and said frankly, "It is always extremely calm before the heavy rain."

Zhu Jingyu and Lang Qixing sat face to face, "Don't King Fu doubt you?"

Lang Qixing chuckled, "I am good for the good King of Fu, so as not to blame him for killing his brothers and sisters on his back. He should be grateful to me."

Zhu Jingyu glanced at him with a smile, "You have done all the good people."

He was clear about his actions, "I am just a little smarter than some people and know how to figure out the prince's thoughts."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Hu came out of nowhere, "Who are some people?"

He laughed loudly and did not answer Yan Hu.

Zhu Jingyu's face was slightly dark, and she looked at Yan Hu and asked, "What's wrong?"

Yan Hu looked cold and approached Zhu Jingyu and said, "Half an hour ago, Liu Meng died suddenly, because she was taking poison."

Zhu Jingyu and Lang Qixing were shocked, and Lang Qixing hurriedly asked Yan Hu, "Has the Virtuous King been acquitted? Why did Liu commit suicide?"

Yan Hu spread his hands and said he was unaware of it.

Zhu Jingyu was quite surprised.

Lang Qixing said, "Is it because of Concubine Wen and King Fu?"

Zhu Jingyu disagreed with Lang Qixing's view, "No, let go, there is no need to do this more, and the demographic is actually done."

"Why did Concubine Liu commit suicide? The Virtuous King was completely helpless when she died." Yan Hu said.

Zhu Jingyu pondered and said, "It's the Imperial Concubine Shun."

"Imperial Concubine?" Lang Qixing and Yan Hu were shocked again.

"Yes, Fu Gongjin is now the King of Jin, so he must have been ordered by King Jin to escape the crime of the King of Jin. After King of Jin has made such a big plan, it is impossible for him to let the King of Virtue go so easily. Unless it is the Imperial Concubine, why should the Imperial Concubine save the King of Virtue? It must have been that Liu Peng took out something of the same value to make a deal with her, and this thing or secret took Liu Peng's life."

Lang Qixing asked, "What would be the secret that would make Liu Ben rather give up his life?"

All three of them fell silent for a moment.

Yan Hu suddenly said hesitantly, "The night before the wise king was released, Liu Ping took off his hairpin and apologized for guilt outside the Palace Palace of Concubine Wen and fainted. He happened to meet Ru Ying, a great palace maid next to the Imperial Concubine. Will these two things have anything to do with each other?"

Zhu Jingyu suddenly realized, "There are not so many coincidences in the palace, but they are all man-made. It seems that the imperial lady and Liu Concubine have reached some kind of deal, one has saved the wise king, and the other has given what the imperial concubine wants."

Yan Hu still didn't understand, "Then Liu doesn't need to die? The wise king has been released, and Concubine Wen will not attack her for the moment. She reached an agreement with the imperial concubine. Wouldn't it be better to save her life?"

Zhu Jingyu drank tea, Lang Qixing glanced at Yan Hu, and then explained to him kindly, "This shows that the things Liu Concubine gave to the Imperial Concubine is very important, so important that the Imperial Concubine was afraid of Liu Concubine. It is also possible that Liu Concubine used her death to prove that everything she said was true. No matter which one it was, it means that this must be a shocking secret. I am very curious about this secret now, and it must be related to Concubine Wen and King Fu. Now King Jin made a profit, designed the Virtuous King and King Fu, and was regarded as the life-saving benefactors, and got the handle of his opponent. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk

Zhu Jingyu was in a complicated mood, and Zhu Jingfeng had already begun to show his methods.

"Pin Liu committed suicide, which has another effect." Zhu Jingyu looked down at the cup in his hand, "Stimulating the wise king with death, so that he can remember hatred forever."

"But King Xian is... He has no backer, so what big waves can he make?" Yan Hu asked.

"Maybe it was, but it may not be the case in the future. But seeing the fact that King Xian was behind closed doors to recuperate, it was not like his usual behavior. I guess Concubine Liu must have said something to him before his death." Lang Qixing said.

Zhu Jingyu nodded in agreement, "If King Xian really had a memory, King Jin might not have taken advantage of it. The first thing King Xian would do was to count Liu's death on the Zhao family's mother and son."
