Chapter 220 Prince Ning is murdered
Chapter 220 Prince Ning is murdered
Dingguohou Mansion.
At this moment, the entire mansion was in chaos.
"What's going on? It takes so long to hire a royal physician!"
"If anything happens to Rui'er, I want all of you to be buried with him!"
After Duke Dingguo had vented his anger, he continued to pace back and forth in the room.
Who is so bold as to do such a cruel thing to the Sixth Prince and his beloved grandson?
"Come here, have you found out who did it?"
"My Lord, His Highness is currently investigating the Crown Prince's assassin. Did he find out something? That's why he was silenced? Could it be that..."
Marquis Dingguo's heart trembled after hearing this, but after thinking about it, he said firmly: "No!"
"I'm not dead yet. He can only get what he wants through me."
The man quickly lowered his head and said, "I have an urgent matter to report to you."
"Stop talking too much. Why don't you just tell me what's urgent?"
These strategists are smart, but their slow nature is really maddening.
"Zhou Xu is not dead..."
"what?!"
"What are you useless people for? You can't even kill someone!"
"The killer definitely hit the vital spot. I didn't expect that guy to be so tough..."
"My Lord, what should we do next?"
At this moment, Marquis Dingguo just wanted to kill the man in front of him with a sword.
"Damn it, I asked you to be my advisor, and you actually asked me what to do?"
"Then what's the point of keeping you?"
The man quickly knelt down and said, "My Lord, spare my life!"
"I believe Zhou Xu must die first. If it didn't work the first time, there will definitely be no problem the second time."
Marquis Dingguo stopped, stroked his beard, and nodded. "Then where is Zhou Xu now?"
The counselor shook his head, "I don't know..."
"The killer reported that he wasn't completely dead, but escaped, and we lost him in the end..."
Marquis Dingguo covered his face with his hands, not wanting to look at this person at all.
"Then why are you still standing here?"
"Hurry up and find him! In any case, get rid of this person immediately!"
Who the hell introduced this person?
"Yes, my lord, I will do it right away!"
This person is still saluting slowly...
However, this person reminded him that the person said he would help him help Ruier become the crown prince.
After all, human hearts are unpredictable. You can help him today, but he may turn against you tomorrow.
It’s better to be careful.

After seeing Xin Youran off, Mu Yuan did not delay any longer and soon returned to the East Palace in secret.
"What about people?"
"Your Highness, when our people found Zhou Jialing, he was already dead."
"The body was placed in the secret room."
"The news has already been released. It says that he escaped to a medical clinic and was able to save his life."
After Jiemie finished his report, Mu Yuan just nodded without saying anything.
He was wondering what to do next, but the prince didn't tell him anything.
"Well done. Before today, the people over there should arrange a second assassination."
"Be sure to prepare well and entertain well."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
"There is one more thing I need to report to you. His Royal Highness Prince Ning is injured, and the injury is quite serious."
Mu Yuan got anxious when he heard this, "How could he get injured for no reason?"
"How is your injury? Why are you telling me now?"
"Where is the person now?"
"Your Highness, he was rescued by Marquis Dingguo's men, and the imperial physician is on the way."
"Look..."
Mu Yuan interrupted him directly, "Prepare the car and go to Dingguo Marquis Mansion immediately."
"Also, let Ji Feng go and invite Doctor Qin."
"Yes, Your Highness."
He was careless. He didn't expect that the man would be so bold as to attack Arui.
It seems that he found out something extremely important and had to kill the person to silence him.
For now, it is safest to stay in the Dingguo Marquis Mansion.
On the way to the Dingguo Marquis Mansion, Jiemie continued to report to Mu Yuan: "His Royal Highness Prince Ning was killed on the way to the Eastern Palace."
Sure enough, just as he guessed, A Rui should have wanted to tell him as soon as possible.
result……
Just when Mu Yuan was thinking about something, the carriage suddenly stopped.
"Your Highness, the person who just flew over the roof looked like Mr. Xin. No, it should be Miss Xin!"
Xin Youran changed from men's clothes back to women's clothes, and the people around her were not quite used to it.
Mu Yuan quickly lifted the curtain and looked at the rooftops on the street.
It flew very fast and disappeared in the blink of an eye. I couldn't even see the person clearly.
"It's okay, as long as Jixue follows me."
"Go faster."
If A Rui wakes up, Marquis Dingguo will definitely stop him.
Mu Yuan quickly arrived at the Marquis Dingguo's Mansion. After the housekeeper went in to report, he stood alone at the door of the mansion.
When he accidentally smelled the familiar scent of gardenia, his heart trembled.
Did she run here?
What nonsense!
Marquis Dingguo is not a good person.
At this time, the housekeeper had come to invite him in. Mu Yuan looked around the yard but did not see her.
"What is your Highness looking at?"
"Imperial Physician Qin just came to see him, and His Highness Ningxia is now fine."
"But he is still unconscious, Your Highness..."
This is to persuade him to leave.
"I must see Sixth Brother before I can feel at ease."
"No need to say more, just lead the way!"
Seeing Mu Yuan's expression change, the housekeeper nodded in agreement and led people to the room where Xia Hou Rui was.

Xin Youran got an address from her second brother, and without thinking much about it, she went all the way to the Dingguo Marquis Mansion.
Could this be Xia Hou Rui’s home?
Oh my god!
After all this time, it turns out that Xiahou Rui is the young marquis of Dingguo Marquis Mansion!
Knowing that his identity should be extraordinary, I didn't expect it to be so extraordinary.
She had just flown to a courtyard wall and took a quick look inside the courtyard, only to discover that there were soldiers guarding the place, but there was no one guarding outside the gate.
This Marquis Dingguo must be no simple person.
Xin Youran was in a dilemma. She had expected to see Leng Yue and Xia Hou Rui when she got there, but she didn't see anyone...
She is wearing women's clothes now. What reason should she have to meet Xia Hou Rui? She must inform him.
Just when she was at a loss, she suddenly felt someone patting her shoulder. She was so scared that she screamed, and then someone covered her mouth from behind.
"Shh, don't make any noise, it's me."
It was Leng Yue's voice.
Seeing that Xin Youran stopped screaming, Leng Yue quickly let her go.
"How did you come?"
"Go back quickly!"
Xin Youran looked puzzled, "Why do you want to go back?"
"I heard from Xiao Er that you came early, why didn't you go in?"
"How is Xia Hourui doing now?"
Leng Yue shook her head. "You can't get in. Ever since Xia Hou Rui was brought here, the Dingguo Marquis Mansion has been on alert, and no one is allowed to enter..."
Uh, then Leng Yue just kept waiting on top of this courtyard wall?
Looking at her tired and worried face, eh, she is really persistent.
Xin Youran couldn't help but ask, "Yueyue, are you really in love with Xia Hourui?"
As soon as Xin Youran finished speaking, Leng Yue elbowed her. "What nonsense are you talking about!"
"How could I like him?"
"I just came to see if he was dead."
