Chapter 290 Invite a Big Buddha
He secretly regretted that if he had known this would happen, he should have brought Lu Zheng, that honest and simple-minded guy who was inflexible, with him.
This way, even if he encountered such a difficult situation, there would be someone to discuss countermeasures with. Now faced with such a complicated situation, he couldn't help but feel at a loss.
Lang Ming knew very well that in the capital, where power struggles were fierce, any slight move could trigger a chain reaction.
If he is not careful, not only will his official hat be in danger, but even his life may be threatened. At this moment, he is filled with anxiety and uneasiness.
Lang Ming ordered the patrolling soldiers to strictly control the entire mansion and not allow anyone to enter or leave.
He thought to himself that only a great Buddha could suppress this matter! He, a small Jingzhao Yin, couldn't afford to offend both sides!
Lang Ming and his teacher arrived at the gate of Prince Xian's mansion. Lang Ming took a deep breath and walked forward to knock on the door.
There were footsteps coming from the door, and then the door slowly opened, and a guard appeared at the door. When the guard saw Lang Ming, a puzzled look appeared on his face: "Lord Lang! What are you doing here so late at night?"
Lang Ming looked at the guard with a serious expression and said in a serious tone: "Please inform the virtuous king that I have encountered some difficult things that I cannot handle. I need the virtuous king to help coordinate!"
After hearing this, the guard nodded slightly and responded, "Okay, Lord Lang! Please wait a moment, I will report to the butler." After that, the guard turned and walked into the mansion.
The guard hurriedly went to find the butler, who couldn't help but feel depressed after hearing what the guard said. This matter was probably very serious, and even Jingzhao Yin didn't dare to deal with it lightly, most likely because it involved members of the royal family.
So the butler hurried to the wing of the virtuous king. He stood cautiously under the window and called softly, "The virtuous king! The virtuous king! Lord Lang wants to see you!"
Inside the room, the virtuous king had his eyes tightly closed. After hearing the voice, he slowly opened his eyes and responded, "Yes!"
At this time, the Xian Wang Fei beside him was also awakened. She frowned and said to the Xian Wang in a low voice: "Lang Ming's visit to the prince must be bad news! How about we just send him away?"
The virtuous king also replied softly: "Don't worry, Langming came to see me, and this matter will definitely reach your majesty's ears. If I don't go to see Langming, your majesty's suspicious heart will probably flare up again! You go back to sleep!"
After saying this, he patted Princess Xian's shoulder gently, then stood up, put on his clothes, and prepared to meet Lang Ming.
Lang Ming and his master stood outside the door waiting quietly, their hearts were heavy.
Lang Ming knew that if he could not get the help of the virtuous king, the matter might become more complicated. The master silently prayed that the virtuous king would agree to their request.
After a while, the guard returned to the door and said to Lang Ming, "Lord Lang, the butler has informed the virtuous king of this matter. The virtuous king is waiting for you two in the study. Please follow me."
Lang Ming thanked him quickly, and then followed the guards into the Xianwang Mansion with his teacher. They walked through the courtyard and came to an elegant study.
The guard knocked on the door gently, and a deep voice came from inside: "Come in."
The guard pushed open the door and motioned Lang Ming and the teacher to come in. The two walked into the study and saw the virtuous king sitting in front of the desk, looking at them seriously. Lang Ming stepped forward, saluted respectfully to the virtuous king, and then explained his purpose.
After listening to this, the wise king frowned and thought for a moment, and finally nodded to show his willingness to help.
Lang Ming and his teacher immediately felt relieved, and they thanked the wise king with gratitude!
The wise king led everyone to the official's residence. When he stepped into the yard, a strong bloody smell hit him in the face, and blood all over the ground came into view.
He could not help but frown, pursed his lips, and said in a heavy tone: "Did the woman really see Xuanhu and Xuanbao killing people? This..."
The wise king seemed a little bit unbelievable, but the scene before him forced him to face reality.
The wise king hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to take action.
He turned around and ordered the guards behind him, "Take my token and invite the prince over. Tell him the situation here and ask him to bring Black Tiger and Black Leopard with him!"
The guard took the order and left, and the virtuous king prayed in his heart that he would find the truth. However, just as the guard was about to leave, the virtuous king suddenly changed his mind.
He shouted loudly: "Wait! I will go there myself!"
He realized the importance and sensitivity of the matter and felt that he had to get involved personally.
So the wise king led a group of people to leave the official's residence and headed towards the palace. Along the way, his mood became heavier, thinking about how to deal with the upcoming situation.
The virtuous prince walked into the palace with steady steps, but surprisingly, he did not go to the East Palace, but went straight to the Qianqing Palace and found Eunuch Gao.
The virtuous prince told Eunuch Gao everything that happened in the official's mansion, and then lowered his voice and reminded him: "After His Majesty wakes up, please report this matter to Eunuch Gao. This matter involves the Crown Prince and the Third Prince, and I hope they can solve it privately. If His Majesty gets angry, I hope Eunuch Gao can mediate and say a few good words for me!"
Eunuch Gao frowned, his face showing worry: "I understand! You have worked hard, my lord!"
The virtuous king sighed softly and said firmly: "After all, they are all my nephews. I must do my best to protect them no matter what!"
Eunuch Gao replied respectfully: "Farewell, my worthy king!"
After saying this, he turned and left, leaving the wise king standing there quietly, his eyes revealing a hint of fatigue and helplessness.
The wise king sighed and thought to himself, "What sin have I committed?" Then he turned around and went to the East Palace.
At this time, Kong Boda was standing in front of Emperor Wen's bed, respectfully reporting to him what happened tonight. After hearing this, Emperor Wen snorted coldly and said, "Lang Ming is also a coward! However, the wise king did a good job this time! Since he is here to handle this matter, I am too lazy to care about it anymore!"
Kong Boda hesitated for a moment, but still spoke: "Your Majesty, the official who was killed tonight, our people have obtained solid evidence to prove that he is actually Yuewu's secret agent! Moreover, he is an official of Da Zhao and Lao San's man!"
Emperor Wen was extremely shocked when he heard the news. An angry voice came from behind the curtain: "What? Yuewu's secret agent turned out to be an official of Dazhao! And he is Lao San's man! Is he planning to rebel?"
Kong Boda secretly sighed in his heart, it seems that Emperor Wen attaches great importance to this matter and has doubts about the third prince. He knows that the situation may become more complicated and tense.
