"Lord Wang, the Lord of Shouyang has come to ask for a meeting." Just as Li Yuntian was pacing back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, wondering which guy had poisoned Li Jue, a guard entered the door to report.

"Let him in." Li Yuntian groaned for a moment when he heard this, nodded to the guard, and then walked to the desk and sat down, picked up an official document and pretended to look at it.

"Lord Wang, someone wants to frame the lower officials, please ask the prince to call the shots for the lower officials." Soon after the guards left, Li Jue hurriedly came in from outside the door, knelt down in front of the desk with his legs bent, touched his head to the ground, and said loudly.

Cui Li followed behind Li Jue, and after entering the door, he shook his head slightly at Li Yuntian, indicating that he did not know about Li Jue's assassination, which meant that this matter should have nothing to do with Li Jue.

Since the news of Li Jue's poisoning is now secretly sealed, Cui Li now suspects that this assassination incident is a bitter ploy by Li Jue.

"Shouyang Lord, you come to tell this king, who would want to frame you?" Li Yuntian noticed Cui Li's actions, so he put down the official document in his hand and asked Li Yu quietly.

"This ......" Li Yao's face showed a depressed look, and after a wry smile, he raised his head and said, "Lord Wang, the lower officials don't know who is behind their backs, but His Royal Highness the Prince has always been jealous of the lower officials in his heart, so the lower officials suspect that this assassination is actually aimed at the lower officials." ”

"There is one thing you may not know yet, the knife that injured Shizi's arm was smeared with poison, and Shizi is now passed out, and his life and death are uncertain." Li Yuntian understood what Li Jue meant, Li Jue was saying that this assassination incident was deliberately designed by Li Jue in order to frame him, so he said after a deep sigh and told Li Jue about Li Jue's situation.

"How...... How so? Hearing this, Li Jue was suddenly stupid, looking at Li Yuntian with a shocked face, he didn't think that Li Yuntian was joking with him, did Li Jue want to frame him with his life?

But how is this possible? Judging from the current situation, Li Jue and Li Yao are fighting for the king of Joseon, and they have not yet reached the point of dying together with Li Jin.

Besides, even if Li Jue died, Li Jue would not necessarily be implicated as he wished, so how could Li Jue be desperate at this time?

At this moment, Li Jue's mind is in a mess, Li Jue's poisoning is in danger, which makes him incomprehensible for a while, if it is not Li Jue's self-directed and self-acting bitter plan, then who wants to kill him?

Not only Li Jue, but Cui Li was also stunned, never expected that Li Jue's situation would be so bad, which means that there are third-party forces in Seoul who covet the throne of the king of Joseon, so he used the trick of killing people with a knife to get rid of Li Jue and Li Jue, and then he could ascend to the throne of the king of Joseon.

"What is the truth of the matter, this king will find out, you go back and wait for the news for the time being." Seeing Li Jue's helpless look, Li Yuntian groaned for a while and said quietly, the most important thing now is whether Li Jue can be saved.

Once Li Jue is dead, then things will be a big problem, no matter how Li Jue is also the son of the Korean State, he needs to report to the Ming court, so that the entire Ming Dynasty will know that the situation in the Korean State is like a mess.

Moreover, Li Jue's death was also a loss of face for Li Yuntian, after all, Li Jue was sent to Seoul by him, but he failed to protect him.

"Thank you, Lord Wang." Hearing this, Li Yao hurriedly got up from the ground and left the room backwards, facing Li Yuntian, he could feel an invisible pressure, and after going out, the whole person became much more relaxed.

"Maharaja, it seems that things are not what we thought before, someone wants to murder you and the prince." Cui Li walked a few steps quickly to catch up with Li Jin, who was wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, and whispered with a serious expression.

"What kind of bastard guy is going to want to kill me and the world." Li Jue had already reacted at this time, and said with a cold gaze, if Li Jue died, then he wouldn't be able to tell clearly anyway.

"Most likely, the Maharaja who have the right to inherit." Cui Li pondered for a moment, looked at Li Jue and replied with a serious face, other than that, he really couldn't imagine anyone to deal with Li Yao and Li Jue.

"Ben Dajun has been good enough for them, and they still want to stab Ben Dajun in the back, which is really hateful." Li Yao's face suddenly sank when he heard this, and a killing intent flashed in his eyes, if he found the main messenger behind the scenes, he would definitely kill the other party.

"Maharaja, it is imperative that we find that sinister guy, only in this way can the maharaja clear the suspicion, otherwise the Ming Dynasty will never let the maharaja who is suspected of murdering the prince inherit the throne." Cui Li frowned and whispered, he now also wanted to know which guy secretly planned all this, and actually hid him and Li Yuntian.

"I'll leave this matter to you, find a way to find that bastard." Li Yao nodded when he heard this, and said with a gloomy face, this kind of guy who hurts people with secret arrows is the most hateful.

"Don't worry, the lower officials will definitely find out about this matter and give the prince an explanation." Cui Li bowed to Li Yao, solemnly accepted the task, and prepared to call his subordinates to investigate in Seoul.

At night.

"Lord Wang." When Li Yuntian was walking in the courtyard, Yun Na rushed over from Li Jue and bowed down to report, "After the emergency treatment of our accompanying medical officer, Shizi's condition has been controlled, but I don't know what the medicine applied on the murder weapon is, so Shizi is still in danger." ”

"The local roots are born together, why not be in a hurry to fry each other!" Hearing this, Li Yuntian couldn't help but look up at the bright moon in the sky, and said slowly in his mouth.

"Lord Wang, who will be the murderer behind the scenes?" Yun Na also guessed that Li Jue's assassination must be related to his younger brothers, but it was not clear who was the most suspicious.

"I can't see it yet, but sooner or later the fox's tail will show up." Li Yuntian shook his head, now that he had too little information in his hand, he couldn't make a judgment at all.

"The trees want to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop!" Yun Na didn't expect the situation in North Korea to become gradually complicated, and couldn't help but think of a sentence, and said secretly in her heart, it seems that the struggle for power will make a simple matter confusing.

"Tomorrow a notice will be posted to collect information about those assassins, and this king will not believe that they have come out of the ground, as long as they have come into contact with people, then they will leave relevant clues." After Li Yuntian's brows furrowed, he opened his mouth and told Yun Na in a deep voice, he was going to start with the identity of those assassins to investigate the case, and there must be someone to take them into Seoul.

"My subordinates understand." Yun Na knew what Li Yuntian meant, nodded solemnly, and then remembered something and asked Li Yuntian, "Lord Wang, do you say that there will be spies planted by others around the prince, otherwise how would they know the path of the prince?" ”

"Check the people around the prince carefully, and don't let anyone go, especially those who know the itinerary of the prince." Li Yuntian couldn't help but glance at Yun Na approvingly when he heard this, Yun Na was becoming more and more mature, and her thinking about problems was becoming more and more thoughtful.

In fact, don't look at the suddenness of Li Jue's assassination, but it is not without a trace, the people who know Li Jue's itinerary must be the people around Li Jue, as long as they start from them, they can find relevant clues.

Li Yuntian believed that as the investigation unfolded, the main messenger behind the scenes would definitely gradually surface, and he wanted to see who had the courage to fish in troubled waters under his nose.

Early the next morning, the streets and alleys of Seoul were plastered with reward notices, saying that if anyone could provide clues related to the assassin, they would be rewarded with 100 taels of silver once it was verified, and 200 taels of silver would be rewarded once they were found to be true.

Originally, Li Jue's assassination caused a stir in Seoul, but now coupled with Li Yuntian's heavy reward, it suddenly set off an uproar, and one hundred taels of silver is definitely a huge amount of money in Seoul, and everyone wants to get this reward to change their fate.

Therefore, the identities of those assassins became the most concerned thing for the people of Seoul, and they inquired about each other's news, and relevant information related to the assassins continued to reach Li Yuntian.

According to the reports of the people, someone once saw the assassins appear in a grocery store, so the people in the grocery store were immediately arrested by the Ming army.

Unfortunately, the owner of the grocery store disappeared after the assassination, and by the time he was later found, he had become a carrion corpse, apparently murdered.

As a result, the clues of the assassin came to an end for the time being, and Li Yuntian asked people to start with the grocery store owner, although the other person is dead, but the daily interpersonal relationship will not disappear.

To Li Yuntian's gratification, with the unremitting efforts of the medical officers accompanying the Ming army, the antidote to Li Jue's poison was finally prepared, which made Li Jue's condition gradually improve.

Li Yuntian felt that Li Jue's life was really hard enough, if it weren't for his physique being stronger than ordinary people, he would have been poisoned a long time ago according to the words of the medical officer accompanying the Ming army, and it would have been impossible to hold out until the antidote was prepared.

After learning that Li Jue had passed the dangerous period, Li Jue, who was worried in his heart, could finally breathe a sigh of relief, in case Li Jue died, he might not be able to say it clearly in his life.

At the same time, Li Jin is also cooperating with the Ming Army to investigate the assassination case of Li Jue, although Li Yuntian knows in his heart that this matter was not done by Li Jin, but the reason for it cannot be solved, he can only know it.

Judging from the current situation, Li Jue is the first suspect in Li Jue's assassination case, so Li Jue will definitely be investigated by the Ming army, which can be regarded as an explanation to Li Jue and the outside world.

Because Li Yao knew that his investigation was just a routine matter, he maintained a good attitude to meet the Ming army's inquiry, and was very cooperative with the Ming army's investigation, anyway, this matter was not done by him, so he was not afraid of the Ming army's investigation.

With the assassination of Li Jue, Li Jue naturally became the main messenger behind the scenes in the minds of the people of Seoul, and after tea and dinner, groups gathered together to discuss this matter, no one thought that Li Jue would be so ruthless, and even sent someone to assassinate Li Jue on the street, after all, Li Jue is still the son of the Korean state, and his move is tantamount to committing chaos.

Therefore, under the bewitchment of some people with ulterior motives, those scholars who studied in Seoul took the lead in raising up to challenge Li Jue, and several young and vigorous scholars with strong blood and strength actually jointly wrote to Li Yuntian, identifying Li Jue as the murderer and asking Li Yuntian to severely punish Li Jue, which gradually made Li Jue's assassination gradually complicated.
