The sudden mysterious death of the prince undoubtedly caused a sensation in the imperial city and even the entire Jade Tripod Dynasty.

You have to know who the prince is?!

This is the crown prince of a country, and his status is only inferior to that of the emperor.

But such an important figure died mysteriously for no reason!

"Have the cause of the prince's death been found out?"

In the imperial study room of the palace.

A middle-aged man full of majestic and nobleness sat upright at the desk with expressionless face, staring at the young man with a gentle temperament in front of him with indifferent eyes. He could not hear any emotional fluctuations in his low voice.

"Report to Your Majesty, after our repeated and careful inspection, the prince died of a sudden heart attack."

The elegant man is Xia Mingyuan.

When the prince's death was passed to the palace, the emperor of the dynasty immediately ordered Xia Mingyuan to investigate the cause of the prince's death.

"Sudden heart disease? Haha!"

The middle-aged man couldn't help but sneer when he heard this.

Obviously.

The emperor did not believe that the prince really died of a sudden illness.

After all, I spend all year round.

No one knows his son's physical condition better than him.

The prince was still following him to handle government affairs two days ago, but now he is gone if he says nothing.

This was a great irony for the emperor.

"It's a pity that this is an unquestionable fact."

Xia Mingyuan sighed with a heavy expression.

Not to mention the emperor.

Even Xia Mingyuan didn't believe that the prince died of a sudden heart attack.

It was shown based on the results of repeated autopsy.

The prince did die of a sudden heart disease.

Xia Mingyuan is not unfamiliar with symptoms such as heart disease.

The problem is.

The prince himself is also a practitioner. Logically speaking, common diseases such as ordinary people such as heart disease will not appear in the prince at all.

therefore.

Both the emperor or Xia Mingyuan knew it in his heart.

The prince's death must be someone's secret attack.

only.

Who has such great ability to kill the prince quietly?

The prince lives in the East Palace all year round.

The protection power of the crown prince and the East Palace is second only to that of the imperial palace.

Say something rude.

Even the great saint of the demon clan himself may not be able to kill the prince silently.

"…Have the people in the Eastern Palace discovered suspicious situation before the prince's death?"

The emperor was silent for a moment.

"According to the interrogation results, no one in the East Palace found any suspicious situation before the prince's death. That night, the prince went back to the study after dinner in the East Palace and discussed the relevant political affairs handled in the day with his companions Huang Cheng and others. After Huang Cheng and others left, the prince still stayed in the study and did not leave. According to Taoist Mingzhen, who secretly protected the prince, the prince had been studying the memorials approved by His Majesty in the previous years in the study. It was not until the early morning that the prince returned to the bedroom to sleep. The concubine who served the prince that night said that the prince did not have any abnormalities before going to bed..."

Xia Mingyuan replied slowly, numerically.

"Can you be sure that there is no problem for people in the Eastern Palace?"

The emperor said in a stern tone.

"Yes."

Xia Mingyuan said in a deep voice.

"Because no one can deceive the interrogation of the Demon-Suppressing Department."

After the prince's accident.

Xia Mingyuan, who was ordered to investigate the cause of the prince's death, directly sent someone to block the East Palace.

Then he interrogated all the Eastern Palace.

"...Continue to check! The prince's death must be explained."

The emperor waved his hand expressionlessly.

"yes!"

Xia Mingyuan lowered his head without looking at the emperor and bowed and said he left.

Shortly after he walked out of the imperial study room.

I heard the violent sound of something hitting the ground hard.

There is no doubt.

The emperor finally could not suppress the anger in his heart and lost his composure.

After all, the dead are not only his biological son, but also his carefully trained heirs.

Although he still has sixteen sons.

Among these sixteen sons, there are excellent talents who are comparable to the prince's.

But in terms of character and other aspects.

None of these sons can match the prince.

The most important thing is that the emperor knows that his destiny will not last long, and the Jade Ding Dynasty will face the great enemy of demons in the future.

If the Jade Ding Dynasty had been unable to introduce a suitable heir for a long time.

Wait until after you die.

The Jade Ding Dynasty will inevitably fall into a brief turmoil, and at that time it will undoubtedly give the demons an opportunity to take advantage of.

What the emperor could think of.

Xia Mingyuan could also think of it.

Or rather.

All knowledgeable people know the seriousness of the prince's death.

This means that the court will need to undergo a new round of reshuffle in the future.

Return to the Demon Suppression Department.

Xia Mingyuan, who has always been elegant and gentle, has become a little serious and inhumane.

After looking through the progress of various investigations submitted by each department.

He was all in a long silence.

Who attacked the prince?!

This is something that everyone is curious about.

And who is the most beneficial to the prince’s death?

The answer is obviously a demon.

"Is the death of the prince related to the demon?"

at the same time.

In Chongwen Courtyard.

When Xia Fan was sorting out the latest books in the library.

Meng Yu appeared beside him even though he didn't know when.

"What do you think, Lord Shuzangshi?"

Xia Fan replied seriously and busy with his work.

"Apart from the demons, I can't imagine anyone who will attack the prince..."

Meng Yu didn't care about Xia Fan's attitude, and said with an extremely serious expression.

"Sir Shunzang Shi, do you think that if the demons are alone, there is really a way to kill the prince quietly in the imperial city without anyone else?"
