Chapter 66: The Scumbag Princess(1/2)
"Master, Tang Feng has already asked. He said..."
"say what??"
"Say hell!"
The voice of Xiang Gongbao's personal attendant became softer and softer as he spoke, as if he noticed that his master's face was getting uglier, and he hurriedly said: "Master, this matter is too strange. Tang Feng is also a killer we have trained for many years, and there has been no such incident in so many years.
Chazi, you have also seen Taro Saoi’s strength, but his death is unknown, and the boy named Ma is probably not a fuel-efficient lamp..."
"Snapped!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiang Gongbao slapped him in the face with a big slap.
"It's up to you to say this."
Xiang Gongbao sat on the chair angrily, with two walnuts in his hand. The thing he was most worried about now was not Ma Hongwen, but Ma Qi.
Who is Ma Hongwen??
How could Xiang Gongbao watch him grow up and not know that compared with his own sons, whether it was Xiang Kecheng or Xiang Keding, both of them were eight miles ahead of him.
However, he sent two capable assassins, and one of them died and the other went crazy.
Xiang Gongbao was worried that Ma Qi secretly sent experts to protect his son.
This explanation is the most reasonable. After all, March is such a precious son, and a master is sent to protect him secretly to prevent this kid from being assassinated while walking on the street.
If this is really the case, will his actions today be obvious to others? If Ma Qi guesses that he wants to use his son as an excuse to stir up trouble...
Thinking that Ma Qi now had 80,000 forbidden troops in his hands, Xiang Gongbao instantly became extremely irritable.
"Go prepare some gifts and go to Ma's house tomorrow."
Xiang Gongbao made up his mind and waved to follow him.
"Sir, Tang Feng..." the follower cautiously tried.
"If you fail to succeed, you will fail! Drag him out and behead him. Tomorrow he will be sent to Ma's house together with his head."
The follower lowered his head, silently regretting in his heart that after all, the killers he had trained for so many years were wasted like this.
Just as the entourage was about to leave, there was a sudden commotion outside.
"Bang bang bang bang..."
A bullet penetrated the door panel and directly broke the tea cup in Xiang Gongbao's hand into pieces.
"The old dog of the Xiang family came out to die..."
Early the next morning, there were a large number of officers and soldiers searching the streets again.
Ma Qi also dragged Xu Tong to Xiang's house with his wounds that had not yet healed.
In front of the main door of the Xiang family, all the festive red lanterns were replaced with white ones.
Last night, the Xiang family suffered revenge from the new school. Xiang Gongbao was fine, only injured one hand, but his son was brutally murdered by the thieves.
Xiang Keding was wearing a white robe, holding the coffin of his eldest brother Xiang Kecheng in the mourning hall, crying so sadly.
Seeing Xu Tong, Xiang Keding limped over and cried heartbrokenly. Xu Tong could smell the strong smell of garlic on this guy's hands from a distance.
Ma Qi repeatedly complained to Xiang Gongbao. After all, Admiral Jiumen was responsible for the safety of the capital. If such a big thing happened, the blame would definitely fall on him.
Ma Qi was already prepared to be reprimanded by Xiang Gongbao on the way here. However, surprisingly, Xiang Gongbao did not blame him for this incident, but only demanded that those disciples of the new school must be eradicated.
"My condolences to Uncle Xiang."
Xu Tong brought the tea to him. Xiang Gongbao took the tea and looked at Xu Tong deeply, but finally said nothing.
Soon someone came from the palace, and they simply gave Xiang Kecheng a title of nobility and allowed him to be buried as a first-class public servant.
To others, these are rare honors, but to Xiang Gongbao, everyone is dead, so what is the use of leaving these false names.
Not long after, Prince Gong also came, personally offered incense to Xiang Kecheng, took Xiang Gongbao's hand and comforted him softly, speaking with deep affection.
Ma Qi also comforted her at the side.
Xiang Gongbao felt extremely uncomfortable. According to his original plan, this scene should have happened at the Ma family, and the person lying in the coffin should be Ma Hongwen.
But at this time, he didn't care so much anymore. People can't be resurrected after death. Although there are some discrepancies in the plan, the general direction has not changed.
Then a farce that had been prepared for a long time began to unfold.
Just when the Xiang family's mansion was filled with mourning, a servant hurried in and whispered a few words into Xiang Gongbao's ear. Xiang Gongbao's face instantly darkened.
The others still didn't know what was going on, but Xiang Gongbao picked up the tea cup in his hand with a cold face and said to Prince Gong: "Prince Gong, I am in charge of the military forces of the court, and I only want to protect my family and country.
Who the new emperor is, I don't care about."
These sudden words made Prince Gong stunned for a moment, and others present were also stunned.
The people who come here to pay their respects are all ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government, and all of them are fine people. Who would say what they say openly?
Just like not long ago, the minister of household affairs brought a group of veterans to see Prince Gong, apparently complaining that the new school of thought was causing harm to the country and the people, and wanted Prince Gong to uphold justice.
What kind of justice can be done, and in what capacity can one do justice?
Don't forget that the man behind the new school of thought is the Emperor.
Prince Gong needs to understand these words himself and must not say them out loud.
We support you as emperor, as long as you kill the new school of thought.
When this was said, Prince Gong would be the first to kill the Minister of Household Affairs, otherwise he would be in big trouble if word spread.
But now Xiang Gongbao suddenly said these words, and Prince Gong's face was full of embarrassment. He didn't accept the words, and it didn't matter if he didn't.
At this time, Prince Gong's housekeeper also ran in in a hurry. As soon as the housekeeper entered the door, he noticed that the atmosphere was not right, so he hurriedly walked to Prince Gong and whispered a few words in his ear.
Prince Gong wanted to get angry when he saw that the housekeeper was so ignorant. I have never seen so many people staring at me. Why are you chewing on my ears?
But after listening to the butler's words, Prince Gong's expression suddenly changed.
"Brother Xiang, this matter definitely has nothing to do with me. It must be framed and framed by someone. Brother Xiang must be aware of it."
Others began to get the news one after another. Just an hour ago, the government really caught an assassin.
The assassin was injured and went to the drug store to see a doctor. After the doctor discovered that it was a stab wound, he thought of what happened outside today where the officials were searching everywhere.
So he used anesthetic to stun the opponent, and then reported the opponent to the official for his backhand.
After the assassin was caught, he was naturally tortured to extract a confession. As a result, everyone was devastated. This guy actually bit out Prince Gong.
Now the government officials are also numb, no matter how hard they beat the other party, they refuse to change their tune. Even after they were beaten to death, it was Prince Gong who sent them to assassinate Xiang Gongbao.
It is said that Prince Gong has made the final plan to seize power by force if Empress Dowager Shengci does not give up the throne.
Now that the news has come, Prince Gong is also dumbfounded, even though he had this intention in his heart.
At this moment, Prince Gong felt more uncomfortable than eating a fly. He couldn't explain the reason for the yellow mud falling off his crotch, so he could only try his best to distance himself from the relationship.
But Xiang Gongbao just replied coldly that he was feeling ill and had gone back to his room to rest.
Now Prince Gong could only leave the Xiang family with a dark face and dejection.
Although everyone said that the assassin must have been framed by someone with intentions, everyone knew that this matter could not just go away.
The Empress Dowager Shengci would not miss this opportunity.
After Xu Tong followed Ma Qi home in a hurry, Ma Qi asked people to start packing their things and asked everyone in the family to go out and hide in Wangzhuang.
Ma Qi, who has always been very insensitive to politics, now smells the smell of danger, which means that the capital city is about to change.
"Dad, I can't leave, I have to go back to the palace as an errand."
Xu Tong stepped forward and said to Ma Qi.
"Go away, why are you causing trouble now??"
Ma Qi scolded with a dark face, the person he was most worried about was his useless son.
Surprisingly, Xu Tong did not show fear towards Ma Qi as usual today, but instead brought Ma Qi a cup of tea with a smile.
"Dad, everyone else can leave, but I can't leave. If I leave, everyone will see that something is wrong. Besides, at this time, do you think I can leave? I am your only son.
"
As soon as he said this, March was stunned.
Yes, everyone can leave, but this little bastard can't leave.
If he dared to leave the city, he might be captured and taken hostage the next day.
"Dad, if I leave, no one in the family will have a good time. There is no one to protect me outside. It's better to be comfortable at home. Can't you just send more people to protect me?"
Ma Qi frowned. Although as a father, he really wanted to reject his son's proposal, but he had to say that this brat who was usually unconventional, what he said today made it impossible for him to refute.
"This...Master, let Hongwen stay alone? Then I won't leave either."
When the eldest grandma saw that Hongwen refused to leave, how could she, a mother, be willing to leave?
"Mom, you guys still have to leave. It's okay for me to be alone. What's the trouble? If I hide myself, the capital is so big, I can hide anywhere. If you guys stay here, I can't even run away.
"
