Chapter 261 I need to help my brother with this wealth.
The prince was assassinated.
This incident spread throughout the world.
But the sensation it caused did not occur at all.
The world's response was mediocre.
It's as if this thing didn't happen at all.
For this kind of situation to occur, it can only be said that too many major events have happened recently.
During the Buddha Bathing Festival, evil spirits from outside the realm appeared, immortal weapons collided, and Landa Temple was removed from the temple, until the Buddha finally returned to his throne.
Any one of these things that happened was not an earth-shattering event. If it happened normally, it would be a big deal, and it would affect people for who knows how many years. But this time they all happened together.
In the eyes of the world, the assassination of the prince was just a continuation of the Florida incident.
So other times, events that should have caused uproar in the world are now just sighs.
After all, the prince was not dead when he was assassinated. As for the prince's concubine and son being kidnapped, not many people cared.
There was not much reaction from the people, but there was an uproar in the court, because this was a major political event, and it was a storm that could tear everyone to pieces.
Since the assassination of the prince, the imperial capital has fallen silent.
The dignitaries who used to walk on the streets have now disappeared without a trace.
Some of the dandy boys have had their legs broken, cutting off the possibility of them going out.
Some people have even closed the gates of the mansion and will not see anyone who comes. They cut off all outside contact except for necessary outings, buying daily necessities, or going to court.
An assassination incident made many people panic.
These people are the soldiers who guard the East Palace.
The ordinary soldiers were weak and desperate, and the commanders and generals among them were even more sad.
The prince has not died, so it is impossible for all the soldiers to be implicated and beheaded. At most, they will be demoted and transferred from the East Palace Guards, who have good treatment and great potential, to other places.
After going to other places, this level is basically over.
After all, no one will keep pursuing these little soldiers. They can't protect the East Palace, and now they are just implicated.
But the commanders and generals among them are different. They will be held accountable, and the best result is to be demoted and marginalized.
And now.
The atmosphere in the Six Rates in the East Palace was depressing, and everyone looked bad.
The prince is fine, but the princess and her son have disappeared.
They were unlucky in protecting the East Palace and were destined to be held accountable.
The disappearance of the Crown Princess is not a big deal to the world, but to them, it is a big deal that could bring down the world.
They gathered here, in silence, and finally left.
Now they are all building relationships and starting to build connections. They are no longer colleagues, but competitors.
If one person is guilty, others are guilty.
If there are good people who collude with the enemy, then they will really cry to death.
Of course, if there is no such kind person, they can create one.
After finally ascending to the throne, they became the top six leaders of the East Palace. These were the prince's team. When the prince ascended the throne in the future, they would naturally start to rise to the top and become important ministers.
Therefore, the East Palace has never lacked supporters, and there are countless people who want to follow the dragon and bet their fate on the prince.
After the deputy leader of the right guard of the prince walked out of the room, his face was expressionless and his expression was gloomy. No one would feel that something was wrong with this look of bitterness and hatred, because this is the current normal situation of the six leaders of the East Palace.
It wasn't until the sky turned dark that the prince's right-wing deputy led his errands and returned directly to his mansion.
The six rates of the East Palace are the left and right guard rates, the left and right Siyu rates, and the left and right Qingdao rates.
Each commander has two officers, the chief and the deputy commander. It is not easy to be the prince's right guard and deputy commander.
Although his official position is not high, and there are many people above this position in the court, he is a close minister of the prince, with a bright future, and I don’t know how many people are watching him.
I finally got to the position, and I have been working hard, for fear that something would go wrong and someone would push me down.
But this time disaster strikes from the sky, and I don’t know how many people will be able to stay in office.
Even if a eldest prince appears, as the eldest son, the prince has already been decided, and there are still many people who are optimistic about the prince.
Many people are staring at them eagerly, trying to pull them down and take the position themselves.
He did the same thing back then.
After returning to the mansion, the prince's right guard led the deputy leader to consider which path he should take to protect himself.
Even an opportunity.
After all, he is the second in command. If the prince's right guard takes over, he will be able to take charge of the first army.
When the prince holds a banquet, his seat can be moved forward a lot.
But when I returned to the mansion and opened the door to the front hall, I saw a man with a sallow face, and his expression suddenly changed.
There was a bang.
The door closed immediately.
The front hall windows were also lowered, as if the moment had been sealed off.
The prince's right guard took the lead and took a step forward, directly grabbed the sick man, grabbed his neck, and said fiercely: "Prince Xiao."
"Anyone can do it."
"Why did you come to me?"
Xiao Wangzhi stretched out his hand and pushed the prince's right guard deputy leader away. He slowly arranged his clothes and smoothed out the wrinkles on his clothes, especially the poppy flower embroidered on the cuffs. After touching it three or five times, Then he chuckled and said, "I'm looking for you."
"But it's because we drank together not long ago."
"Our families are family friends."
"I have to call your father Uncle Shi."
"We've known each other since childhood, but you look down on me. I'm a prodigal, and you're a genius."
"You have lived up to the reputation of the Wu family in Huazhou. Step by step, you have become the deputy commander of the crown prince's right guard and the grand master of the Yuanshen realm."
Before Xiao Wangzhi could finish his words, Wu Junyi coldly interrupted and said, "My thirteenth brother has made good friends with you and is as close as a brother. This is how you repay me."
"You deliberately asked him to invite me for this drink, just for today."
Xiao Wangzhi did not shirk the blame, he nodded openly and said: "Not bad."
"As long as something happens to me, you will be implicated."
"After all, the Crown Princess is missing, and they want an explanation, and you, who drank with me, are the best scapegoat."
"The Wu family of Huazhou can be on good terms with my Lanling Xiao family, so naturally they are not weak."
"And you are the next generation of the Wu clan leader. As long as you worship His Highness as your master, the Huazhou Wu clan is already in control."
"Don't show such an ugly look. His Highness is the eldest son, and he is very talented. He will definitely ascend the throne and become emperor in the future. The prince is just a flower of the past, and his defeat is not far away."
"Your thirteenth brother and I have always been on good terms, as close as brothers. If I didn't help you, you would have missed out on this incredible wealth."
"Excited, are you excited?"
"Don't deny it, your face is turning red."
"No need to thank you."
"This is what good brothers should do."
