My husband married a concubine? I turned around and married the cold prince.

Chapter 276: Just a Prince of a Different Surname

He was so angry that he overturned the table in front of him and cursed at the group of people kneeling on the ground.

"Useless, all of you are useless! After so long, there is still no clue at all. What is the point of me keeping you?!!"

"Your Highness, please forgive me. It's all my fault for my incompetence." The secret guards knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously, their bodies trembling.

"Get out, all of you, get out!" King Dingyuan swung his sleeves fiercely.

When the room became quiet again, his chest was still heaving violently.

“Who is it?” King Dingyuan clenched his fists, his eyes turned red with anger.

Ever since he returned to the capital, nothing has gone well for him. Every single thing seemed to be targeted at him.

Wu Tiancheng was severely injured, the thief who read the secret letter, and now Wu Tai were killed.

All this made Prince Dingyuan feel very uneasy.

However, he is not a person who backs down when faced with difficulties.

He must find out who the murderer is. Anyone who dares to attack his people will have to bear his wrath!

At the same time, Prince Yong was also getting angry in his study.

Because of the Ministry of Revenue's disaster relief money incident, he not only lost several capable subordinates, but even his previous plan to marry Liu Xinnuan, the daughter of the Minister of Revenue, had to be temporarily shelved.

In this moment of public opinion, he absolutely dared not reveal this matter.

"Are you all useless? How did the matter of the disaster relief money get exposed? And it was discovered by Prince Dingyuan's people!" Prince Yong once again smashed the porcelain in the room and sat on the chair in anger.

"In reply to your Highness, I did not expect that Prince Dingyuan's hand would even reach the Ministry of Revenue." The person who reported the situation also looked helpless.

"Hmph, does Wu Fu really think that everyone in the capital is afraid of him? He is just a prince of a different surname, yet he is so arrogant." There was a sinister flash in Prince Yong's eyes.

"Your Highness, I don't understand. Why would Prince Dingyuan target us and do such a thing?" The subordinate looked at Prince Yong cautiously.

"Humph, he is unwilling to cooperate with me. I guess he has already reached a cooperation agreement with King Cheng. He is doing this just to help King Cheng suppress me."

Prince Yong guessed in his heart that when Prince Dingyuan first came to the capital, he and Prince Cheng both extended olive branches to Prince Dingyuan.

However, he waited for a long time for a reply from King Dingyuan. Presumably, between him and King Cheng, King Dingyuan chose to cooperate with King Cheng.

Prince Yong didn't know that Prince Dingyuan was targeting him not because of this incident, but because he found out that the people who beat Wu Tiancheng and read the secret letter were related to Prince Yong.

He was avenging his son.

"Your Majesty, what should we do? We can't just wait like this, right?"

"Humph, of course not. Since King Dingyuan has chosen to oppose me, don't blame me for being rude."

"But, Your Majesty, most of King Dingyuan's power and assets are far away in Yicheng. Whatever we want to do, it is out of our reach." The subordinate said in embarrassment.

"I'm asking you, what does King Dingyuan care about most?"

"His own fiefdom, and that of Crown Prince Wu Tiancheng." The subordinate replied.

"So what do you think, does he value his son more or his fiefdom more?" Prince Yong sneered.

"This..." Several people in the hall looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Both of these should be very important.

"I remember that after Wu Tiancheng was beaten last time, my father arranged for an imperial physician to go to the hospital. Go and find that imperial physician."

"Yes."

Within an hour, the guards who had gone out hurried back.

"Your Majesty, I didn't find the doctor. According to the people at the Imperial Hospital, the doctor went to the hospital and never came back. I went to the doctor's home, but only the servants were there, and the master was nowhere to be seen.

After several inquiries, I finally found out that the family of the imperial physician had been secretly detained by Prince Dingyuan."

"Oh? Why is that?" Prince Yong raised his eyebrows.

"I don't know, but the person in charge of monitoring the Dingyuan Prince's academy said that the imperial physician is still alive and in the academy. But I don't know the details of what happened. We don't have anyone in the academy, so we don't know anything about what's going on inside."

"Go check it out. There must be something fishy going on here. Who knows, Prince Dingyuan's weakness may lie here." Prince Yong had a hunch.

He felt that perhaps this was an opportunity.

Such a long time has passed, and Wu Tiancheng's injuries should have almost recovered. What is that imperial physician still doing there?

There are undercurrents in the capital, but the surface is unusually calm.

Both the Prince Xian's Mansion and the General's Mansion were busy preparing for the wedding.

Although An Zhenyuan was in the capital, he did not dare to show up and could only stay in his study every day.

Few people knew that he had returned to the capital. No one else knew except his personal guard, An Qingqian, the housekeeper, the wise king and Shi Qiuwu.

Time flies and it is already late February.

There are more green buds on the trees and the weather is warmer.

Although the charcoal brazier in the room had not been removed, the clothes everyone was wearing had become thinner.

King Cheng has been in a very good mood these days.

Prince Yong was punished by the emperor repeatedly, the crown prince was quiet and did not make any movement, and Prince Cheng helped the emperor deal with several matters and received a lot of rewards and praise.

Many ministers in the court began to secretly show goodwill towards King Cheng.

King Cheng was handling some matters in his study when his subordinates came to report, "Your Majesty, the person who went to the border to check Liu Yiyi's identity is back."

"Oh? Ask him to come in."

Upon hearing this, King Cheng’s eyes lit up.

"Your Majesty, I have already found out that Liu Yiyi is the daughter of Liu Qian, a military doctor in the border army. Liu Qian has a high reputation in the army and is a skilled doctor. Therefore, the people over there respect him very much.

Liu Yiyi is his only daughter. It was because Liu Yiyi often worked in the army that she met Lin'an Marquis Xue Wanxian. "

"Military doctor?" King Cheng narrowed his eyes and thought quickly about the guard's words.

"That's right. Moreover, General An thinks highly of Liu Qian."

"An Zhenyuan respects Liu Qian, but Liu Qian's daughter is having an affair with his son-in-law." King Cheng sneered.

"Liu Qian is really bold. He actually allowed his daughter to compete with the general's daughter for a man. Is he crazy?"

The guard didn't say anything, but stood there quietly.

"Go down and call my staff over."

King Cheng's aide soon arrived at the study, and he recounted what the guards had just investigated.

An aide spoke first, "Your Highness, I think it would be better to say that Prince Yong knows Liu Qian than to say that he knows Miss Liu."

As soon as these words were spoken, the room suddenly became quiet, and everyone knew what this meant.
