C2778 Target of Suspicion

1In the main hall of the Great Lu Dynasty Emperor, all the ministers had arrived. As usual, before the Emperor came, they would gather in twos and threes and chat. However, the noise and intensity of the conversation in the main hall today... Furthermore, when they were chatting... Their eyes would occasionally look at the place at the front of the dragon throne. That place belonged to Wu Yan. Standing there represented the position of one person above ten thousand people, and even... In the current situation of the Great Lu Dynasty Emperor, that was the status of a person above ten thousand people.

However, the Emperor had already arrived, and Wu Yan, who was in that position, had yet to arrive. Most of the people who were chatting and discussing with each other were related to Wu Yan.

"Is that news true? This is unbelievable. Who did it? " A minister whispered to another minister beside him.

"It should be true" The minister looked at Wu Yan's position and also said in a low voice, "I got this news at dawn, just like what you did just now. They couldn't believe it, but the news shouldn't be fake. The Wu family's guards and family servant were all looking for people on the street. All the city gates had been sealed off, although ordinary people might not be able to sense anything. However, as long as one was more careful, they would be able to notice that something was not right."

"That's right, I heard about this before coming to the Imperial Palace. On the way here, I saw the Wu family's guards, although they kept a low profile. However, I've been to the Wu residence a few times. So... I was able to recognize those guards. " Another official also echoed: "I really didn't expect that there would be someone who would dare to do so. Is he not afraid of death?"

"Maybe it was done by those people from the Rebellion Army?" The first official who spoke said, "They are very arrogant now. They have already conquered a few cities. They are very imposing. Kidnapping Minister Wu will be a good blow to the prestige of the Imperial Court. It will also raise the morale of the bandit army. "

"I don't think so." The minister next to him shook his head and said, "Most of the rebels are mud, how capable can they be? I don't need to say how heavily guarded the Wu residence is, you should all know that, right? Those mud men were able to sneak in so easily... Furthermore... And kidnapped Minister Wu under the watchful eyes of so many guards? How could they have such an expert?"

The few people beside him nodded their heads, although Wu Yan had just lost to those Rebellion Force not long ago. The Rebellion Force's momentum had skyrocketed, and they had conquered several cities in a row. However, in the hearts of these ministers, they still looked down on the people of the Rebellion Force. They felt that they were not worthy to be mentioned in public. They felt that they were just a bunch of scumbags. It was impossible for them to succeed.

In fact, in the Rebellion Force, other than Wang Cheng, there were indeed some who were not successful. Most of them were farmers and had not undergone any training. There were also no rules. When they were fighting on the battlefield, it was even more chaotic. At the same time, they lacked weapons, armors, and so on. As a result, those people were still able to fight with the wind, but if they encountered any setbacks... It would be very easy for the situation to collapse.

However, Wang Cheng was different. He was a general in the Great Lu Dynasty army. He had read military books and had the experience of leading an army to war. In addition, he had extraordinary skills. In addition... He had also received a lot of financial aid from outside the pass... Therefore... It was only now that he had truly developed, that he had truly become a climatic person.

However, even so, these ministers still did not put Wang Cheng in their hearts. In their hearts, Wang Cheng was just a low-class person who had a little knowledge. Compared to them, Wang Cheng might have some ability. He might be able to shine for a while, but in the end, he would definitely be defeated by them. The rebels would be suppressed in the end. As long as the Imperial Court could catch their breath, that would be enough.

Therefore, none of them believed that there was such a capable person amongst the rebels who could freely enter and exit Wu Yan's mansion, and even successfully abduct him.

"However, if it wasn't for those bandits, who could it be? In our Great Lu Dynasty, besides those bandits, who else has a grudge with Minister Wu? Furthermore, who has the guts to do so?" Someone asked doubtfully.

"I think of someone." At this moment, one of the officials said hesitantly.

"Who?" Everyone looked at him, waiting for his answer.

"Princess Qi!" The man said slowly.

"Princess Qi? the man asked. Impossible, right?" Everyone was shocked and immediately felt that it was impossible.

Indeed, Princess Qi did have the courage to attack Wu Yan. After all, her status was higher than Wu Yan's. Although she had already married off, she still had the status of a princess.

Furthermore, the one who was in charge of negotiating with the Fengjue Country was Wu Yan. Therefore, it was normal for Princess Qi to feel resentful towards Wu Yan for not being able to negotiate with him. Furthermore, everyone knew that Princess Qi and Noble Consort Wu's relationship had never been good. In that case, she naturally wouldn't have a good impression of Wu Yan.

However, although Princess Qi had the motive and reason to do so, she did not have the ability.

Princess Qi was originally a female and did not have much ability. The reason why her status was so noble... Furthermore, her position in the Imperial Palace was extraordinary. That was because the previous Emperor doted on her. Now, the previous Emperor had passed away. No one was backing her up, so she wanted a higher status... That was definitely not easy.

With Princess Qi's current ability, it was absolutely impossible for her to sneak into the Wu Prefecture and kidnap Wu Yan.

"I think it's possible." The official who just said Princess Qi's name continued, "Princess Qi has returned to the court. You all know about this, right? She was at the border. She must have known that the previous emperor had passed away. The new emperor did not like her. However, under such circumstances... She still went back without hesitation, saying that she wasn't prepared... I don't believe it. "

The people beside her didn't say anything, but listened attentively.

"Everyone should know that the late emperor doted on Princess Qi. And the previous emperor had no choice but to marry Princess Qi out of the pass. He must feel guilty in his heart. In this situation, the late emperor would send some experts to protect Princess Qi. That's very normal." That person continued, "How many experts have the Imperial Family secretly nurtured to what extent? Outsiders like us do not know. It is hard to guarantee that a few very powerful ones will be sent to protect Princess Qi. This way, it would not be so strange for Princess Qi to have experts by her side. Although she cannot enter the Wu Mansion by herself, the guards by her side are okay. "
