Hide And Cultivate In The East Palace, Only To Find The Prince Is A Girl

Chapter 174 - 174: Yin Guoping’s Death



Therefore…

Not only did he want to catch the culprit behind the scenes, but he also wanted to do it beautifully.

There was limited information.

Zhang Ronghua shook his head, unable to guess who the mastermind was.

Ma Ping ‘an pretended to be relaxed and asked curiously,””l heard that you and

Ding Yi went to the palace to meet His Majesty last night?”

Zhang Ronghua was very vigilant. He heard another meaning from this sentence.

This was not what he wanted to ask. It was probably the Crown Prince who had instructed him to investigate and find out why he had met the Xia Emperor last night.

Facing his gaze, her expression did not change as she said naturally, “Ding Yi wants to see His Majesty. His body is not good, so he asked me to accompany him.’

“I still want to drink with you? You’ve been staying in the Scholar’s Hall for two days. ”

The scapegoat came and pushed the blame onto Qian Wenli.

Zhang Ronghua continued,” Qian Wenli set a trap for me. He sent the abandoned old books from the miscellaneous hall over and even set a time limit to tidy them up. Seeing that the time is approaching, I can only work harder. ”

Ma Ping ‘an nodded and didn’t ask further.

It was reasonable and everything made sense.

They continued on their way.

Zhang Ronghua thought about many things. Considering Emperor Xia’s behavior, Wei Shang’s repeated instructions to Ding Yi, and the Crown Prince’s request for Ma Ping ‘an to question him, why didn’t he do it himself?

Regardless of whether it worked or not, it would cause him to be disgusted.

However, Ma Ping’ an was different. His status was low, and he was close to Zhang Ronghua. He pretended to ask casually and wouldn’t cause any discomfort. From this point of view, it was likely that the Empress was also involved. It was even more likely that she had sent someone to deliver a message to the Crown Prince, which led to this scene.

His heart was heavy!

As his status rose, he knew more and more secrets. He realized that the waters of the imperial family were really too deep.

In the Eastern Palace.

Xuanhe Hall.

The Crown Prince wasn’t around, so Chen Youcai was the only one in the hall. He was sitting on a chair, drinking tea and waiting. At this moment, hurried footsteps came from outside. His eyes lit up, and he stood up from his chair. Looking at Zhang Ronghua and Ma Ping ‘an, he quickly went up to them and said, “Coming! ” “Where’s His Highness?” Zhang Ronghua nodded and asked.”

“Inside. ”

Hearing the voices outside, the crown prince knew that Zhang Ronghua had arrived. He walked out with Qing ‘er and Shuang’ er and waved his hand for them to sit down.

Zhang Ronghua sat on the first seat on the left, Chen Youcai sat on the first seat on the right, and Ma Ping ‘an sat beside him. Zheng Fugui was not around, so he was not taking a bath today.

Shuang ‘er served the tea and placed the poured tea in front of them.

No one moved, allowing the tea to steam up and float in the air.

The Crown Prince’s expression was solemn as he asked in a deep voice,””Have you heard?”

“On the way here, Ma Ping ‘an already told me.”

“Ping Bo wants to fight for this position. I’ve thought about it, it’s not realistic to take this position!”

Chen Youcai was not in a hurry. He had not been a county magistrate all these years for nothing. He knew that the Crown Prince still had something to say, so he waited quietly.

“Although we can’t get the position of magistrate, we can fight for the position of judge and magistrate. With his experience, we have a 70% chance of catching the culprit.”

Zhang Ronghua understood that he had asked Ma Ping ‘an to call him over so late at night to catch someone.

The Crown Prince continued,” If it’s an ordinary matter, with Ma Ping ‘an’s ability, you can just leave it to him. You don’t have to come forward.” However, this matter is of great importance and cannot be taken lightly. Once you miss this opportunity, it will be harder than ascending to the heavens to take another piece of meat from the Shangjing government. As for Zheng Fugui, he could still kill and guard the Eastern Palace, but he wasn’t good at such things.”

“I will do my best!”

“I don’t worry about you!”

After giving a few more instructions, the Crown Prince brought Qing er and the others away and entered the palace.

Chen Youcai stood up from his chair and did not hide anything. He bowed solemnly to him. “Qing Lin, I’ll leave everything to you!”

“Wait for my news! ” Zhang Ronghua replied.”

After leaving the Hall of Proclamation and Harmony, he brought a battalion of Flood Dragon Guards and rushed towards Yin Guoping’s home.

Ma Ping ‘an continued to patrol and was in charge of the Eastern Palace’s defense. Chen Youcai wanted to help, but he did not have the power. He could only go back and wait for news.

It was clearly late at night, after dawn, but the streets were filled with people from the government or the patrolling officers of the Fifth Division of City Defense.

Other than them, there were also some guards. It seemed that they were people from other forces. They had the same idea as them. They wanted to find the culprit behind the scenes and reach into Shangjing government.

Tomorrow’s court would be even more exciting.

According to Chen Youcai, Yin Guoping’s body was still in the residence. The Yin residence had been sealed off and heavily guarded to maintain the scene.

However. it could only be delayed for one night- At dawn tomorrow. his body

had to be transported back to the government office for burial.

He rushed over to the Yin Manor with the Flood Dragon Guards.

The leading officer was a military officer. He stepped forward and stopped them, driving them away with a cold face.”The crime scene has been sealed off. Leave quickly!”

Zhang Ronghua’s eyes turned cold as he shouted, “Get lost!’”‘

Sima was about to speak, but before he could, Zhang Ronghua grabbed his collar and threw him aside.

The surrounding soldiers wanted to rush up, but the Flood Dragon Guards stepped forward and blocked them. He pushed open the door and walked in.

The thick smell of blood wafted over. Dozens of members of the Yin Clan, including the servants and maids in the manor, as well as the two large wolfdogs that they had raised, were brutally killed. The ground was littered with corpses, and blood flowed all over the ground..
