Chapter 103
Shangguan Cheng was waiting outside the camp. Hearing this, he stumbled in and rushed in.

"Shangguancheng, Prince Mu's Mansion was suspected of assassinating the emperor. The Ai family surrounded Prince Mu's Mansion and arrested Liu Mu's son."

The Empress Dowager shouted an order.

"What? Prince Mu's Mansion?"

Shangguan Cheng said in horror.

"Yes, it's Prince Mu's Mansion!"

The Queen Mother roared angrily.

"But, sister...sister, Liu Mu from Prince Mu's Mansion has an army of 30 men!"

Shangguan Cheng is not a fool either.

"What happened to the 30 troops? The empire has 300 million troops. Are you still afraid of him? The Ai family asked you to arrest people. Can't you hear the Ai family's decree?"

The Queen Mother roared at the top of her lungs.

"Sister...Empress Dowager, please think twice! If there is no conclusive evidence for this matter, I will think..."

Shangguan Cheng hasn't finished speaking yet.

Shangguan Fengyi stepped forward and kicked him hard.

"What do you think? Do you think the Ai family will be afraid of Liu Mu? Do you think the Ai family will be afraid of the 30-strong army?"

The Empress Dowager was so angry that she aimed at Shangguan Cheng again.

"Old minister, I obey my order! I obey my order..."

Shangguan Cheng was so frightened that he crawled and rolled out.

Liu Yi is the young prince of the Mu Palace and the eldest son of Beiyuan King Liu Mu. He will be the one who will take over the Beiyuan Palace in the future.

This time, he also came to participate in the Autumn Hunting Ceremony. His performance in the first two days was not bad, and he was appreciated by the emperor.

However, due to the assassination of the emperor, the Autumn Hunting Ceremony was interrupted, so he was also preparing to return to the imperial capital tomorrow with the large army.

Shangguan Cheng and his guards rushed into his tent and arrested him indiscriminately.

What he didn't expect was that this time it was actually a serious crime of assassinating the emperor with the intention of treason.

This is completely inexplicable!

"Sir Shangguan, the Mu Palace is loyal to the emperor and will never assassinate the emperor, let alone rebel! What an injustice!"

Liu Yi shouted loudly.

"My young prince, I am acting under the orders of the Queen Mother. Even if I have any grievances, I will personally tell the Queen Mother when the time comes."

Shangguan Cheng said with a grimace.

"Sir Shangguan, what is going on? Can you reveal a little bit?"

Liu Yi asked in a low voice.

"It is said that the assassin of the emperor hid in Prince Mu's Mansion and was later killed and burned."

Shangguan Cheng revealed a little bit.

"What? Is there such a thing? But, I have been hunting!"

Liu Yi felt that he was really wronged.

"I also think there is something fishy about this matter. Young prince, you don't have to worry. Send someone to send a message to your father and ask him to find a way to save you."

Shangguan Cheng is also kind.

In fact, he was just helping the angry sister deal with the aftermath. After all, Liu Mu had an army of 30 men and guarded the northern territory all year round.

Since the late emperor trusted this person so much and even granted him the title of King with a different surname, his loyalty to the royal family must be no problem.

As for the assassin who went to Mu Wang's Mansion today, his tactics were too obvious.

In fact, Eunuch Yan also had doubts about this. He just reported what he saw to the Queen Mother.

What he didn't expect was that the Empress Dowager lost control of her emotions and wanted to surround Prince Mu's Mansion and capture Liu Yi.

This matter really wants to develop in an unpredictable direction.

In the middle of the night, such a big thing spread throughout the camp in an instant.

Yu Qian and six officials immediately asked to see the empress dowager to find out the ins and outs of the matter.

After all, Liu Mu has an army of 30 men. If he really rebels, the empire must have corresponding countermeasures.

If Liu Mu didn't rebel, then come up with a solution.

After Lu Hao finished communicating with Sister Yi, as soon as he returned to the camp, he was attracted by the noise outside.After learning that Liu Yi was arrested, Lu Hao was dumbfounded.

The emperor is still in a coma, and the empress dowager is acting arbitrarily. Arresting Liu Yi will inevitably anger Liu Mu, the king of Beiyuan.

Liu Mu had guarded the north for many years. Although he was loyal to the court, it would be a different matter if his son died.

……

The far west, the west of the empire, is the rich Baofeng Plain.

This is Chen Lin's family fiefdom.

As the general marshal of the empire, the late emperor granted two states, one was Ruzhou and the other was Binzhou.

The two major states are basically located in the rich Baofeng Plain.

This is the empire's famous grain producing area, the largest wine-making base, and the largest silkworm hometown.

After the Chen family returned, they symbolically buried Chen Xiang's coffin, then closed the door to thank guests, hid in their home, and kept a low profile.

The Chen Family House is located at the foot of Pingding Mountain, covering an area of ​​more than 200 acres.

Classical architectural style, retro decorative materials, luxurious and majestic layout, and hundreds of pavilions and pavilions, it looks like a palace standing in the west.

Deep in the courtyard, Chen Lin stood on the main building on the central axis, looking to the east.

"Father, it's so late and you're still not asleep?"

Chen Xiang appeared behind him.

Wasn't this kid assassinated?How come it appears here?
It turned out that Chen Lin had already predicted the empress dowager's little tricks and asked Chen Xiang to pretend to be dead and take the opportunity to leave the imperial capital so that he could plan everything.

Murong Yuan killed his own daughter. As a father, how could he possibly swallow this?

Not to mention, the empress dowager teamed up with Shangguan Yuehua to kill her grandson.

In his opinion, he was loyal to the Murong family, but what he got in exchange was two corpses and two lives, which was unclear.

The blood debt must be paid in blood!
This is the battlefield rule of "Wise Commander" Chen Lin.

Since the Murong family killed their daughter and grandson, they have to wait to bear his wrath.

"Child, your Uncle Ghost and Uncle Five will not come back again!"

Chen Lin said in a deep voice.

He had just received news that all the dead soldiers led by Gui Yi and Long Wu had died, and no one survived, and no one was left alive.

To his relief, the two men did not die in vain and succeeded in dragging the Mu Palace into the water.

"Mission failed?"

Chen Xiang frowned.

"It's not considered a failure. At least the dog emperor is still in a coma due to poisoning, and your two uncles gave him a big gift!"

Chen Lin's eyes were filled with cold light, deep and restrained.

At this moment, Shen Youtu appeared behind him and bowed slightly.

"Commander, there is definite news from the imperial capital that Liu Yi has been arrested! The charge is to assassinate the emperor with the intention of treason!"

Shen Youtu reported.

"Since the news is conclusive, Gui Yi and Long Wu's deaths were not in vain!"

There was a little heaviness hidden in Chen Lin's deep eyes.

"Commander, we will avenge them sooner or later!"

Shen Youtu consoled him.

"Since the Mu Prince's Mansion has been set on fire, let's work harder and make the fire burn brighter! Burn it longer!"

Chen Lin's eyes lit up, shining with the light of wisdom.

The name "wise and handsome" is definitely well deserved.

Until now, in the several confrontations with the Murong family, they have never been defeated.

Even if Chen Xiang was assassinated and took the opportunity to fake his death, it was still part of his overall plan.

"Butcher, notify the Imperial Capital to kill Liu Yi quietly!"

Chen Lin ordered coldly.
