Chapter 152 The Third Prince's Death

In fact, it was not only Xue Xing who did not quite believe it, almost everyone present did not quite believe it. The palace was heavily guarded, and there were many soul masters on duty. The prince's food and clothing were all taken care of by his trusted men sent by Xue Ye himself. Even the prince's meals were tested for poison.

Only after it is confirmed to be non-toxic will it be given to the princes.

How could Xue Luochuan be poisoned to death?

Seeing that everyone didn't believe him, Di Hong had to explain: "Look."

"The Second Prince's face was calm, as if he was asleep. This shows that the poison that the Second Prince was poisoned with was not an ordinary poison, and the Second Prince must have died in his sleep."

"If it was an ordinary poison, he wouldn't be so calm."

"What kind of poison is that?" Xue Ye asked. He was getting more and more scared now. His own son actually died in this heavily guarded palace. If his son died today, would he be the one to be poisoned to death tomorrow?

Di Hong said: "The Second Prince was harmed by the spirit master's spirit poison."

"Martial Soul Poison!" Xue Xing and others were shocked, and Xue Qinghe even broke out in a cold sweat. He was now afraid that Di Hong would guess who poisoned them.

"Then who do you think poisoned the martial soul?" Xue Ye asked coldly. He was now on the verge of exploding with anger.

Di Hong shook his head: "Then I don't know."

"Among the people I know, the only one who can use martial spirit poison besides Senior Poison Douluo Dugu Bo is Pope Bibi Dong."

"But Senior Dugu is my man, and he is also a Titled Douluo. He lives in Sunset Forest all year round and rarely comes to Tiandou City. The palace is heavily guarded, and even a Titled Douluo cannot sneak in."

"He doesn't bother to do such a thing, and it's not good for me either."

"Besides, his poison is the Jade Phosphorus Snake King Poison. It is impossible for it to let people die so peacefully."

"As for Bibi Dong, she is the Pope, and her every move is under people's attention. How could she come all the way here to poison the prince?"

"What else can she do?"

"Besides, the Death Spider King's poison cannot kill a person in their sleep."

Xue Ye closed his eyes to hide his sadness. To be honest, he had doubted Di Hong. After all, Di Hong had just implicitly expressed his support for Xue Qinghe, and then Xue Luochuan died. After all, Dugu Bo, a subordinate of Di Hong, was almost the best in the continent in using poison.

In his opinion, Di Hong had the greatest motive, but he had also investigated and found that Dugu Bo had not left the Sunset Forest in the past few days, and no one had contacted him, while Di Hong had been staying in Yuexuan and had not gone anywhere.

And if his son had been poisoned by a snake, it would have been impossible not to see it.

So he ruled out Di Hong. As for Bibi Dong, not to mention Di Hong not believing it, he wouldn't believe it either. Would the Pope come all the way to kill a child?
If it gets out, you’ll lose face.

"From today on, the palace is under martial law and everyone will be strictly checked."

"Di Hong, from today on, you will stay in the palace."

Xue Ye is becoming more and more worried. Now he has a feeling that there are always villains who want to harm him, so he has to let Di Hong stay by his side.

"Yes." Di Hong bowed.

The investigation of Xue Luochuan's death was handed over to Xue Xing. Xue Qinghe looked at his brother's body in sorrow, and then a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, but it was fleeting. Only the six-year-old Xue Beng noticed it inadvertently, but he felt a little puzzled.

Although Xue Qinghe looked very sad, Xue Beng always felt that he seemed somewhat happy.

Maybe he was wrong, but he had also planted the seeds of doubt in his heart, because he felt that his eldest brother seemed to have changed a little.

At Xue Luochuan's funeral, all the ministers were extremely sad. The most outstanding prince had died like this. Those ministers who supported Xue Luochuan to be the crown prince were especially sad.

Now that Xue Luochuan is dead, the ministers suddenly split into two factions. One faction chose to support Xue Qinghe, while the other turned to support Xue Haizang. Xue Haizang was not very old, but he had great talent, and his innate soul power had reached level eight.

He is the one with the most martial spirit talent among the four princes.

If he practices diligently, the probability of becoming a Titled Douluo in the future is very high. Xue Ye also has high hopes for him. Originally, Xue Ye planned that after his death, Xue Luochuan would become the emperor, and Xue Haizang would become the Protector of the Nation Douluo.

After all, Di Hong was an outsider and a member of a vassal kingdom; he couldn't completely trust him.

In fact, it's not that he didn't consider Xue Qinghe, but Xue Qinghe used to be reserved and had no desire for power, so he basically didn't consider her. It was only in the past year that he began to participate in the fight for the position of crown prince, but it was not obvious.

After the funeral, the martial law in Tiandou City ended and the people returned to their normal lives, but the martial law in the palace did not end. Xue Xing had been investigating, but to no avail. She already knew that Xue Luochuan died of the martial soul poison.

But no one knows who poisoned him.

Even Dugu Bo's son Dugu Xin joined the investigation, but still found nothing. Dugu Xin was still a little inferior to his father Dugu Bo. However, even if Dugu Bo came, he couldn't find anything useful.

The investigation had no results after a long time, so we had no choice but to stop the investigation.

Xue Luochuan’s death became an unsolved case, with no clues at all.

The ministers also began to take sides. Xue Haizang stepped to the front and appeared in everyone's sight. In comparison, Xue Qinghe seemed much more ordinary. Most of his supporters were marginal figures, and the only one who could stand out was Wang Shen.

However, the commander of the Imperial Guard supports Xue Haizang, which means that Wang Shen is useless.

You are in charge of ten thousand people, and the commander of the Royal Guard is in charge of you.

Therefore, the commander of the Royal Guard Corps did a lot of things to make things difficult for Wang Shen during this period, but fortunately he was very steady and no one was able to catch him. This made him feel uncomfortable, but it didn't matter. He just had to endure it.

Di Hong secretly sent him a message, asking him to be patient and not let anyone catch him, because Xue Qinghe would definitely become the crown prince, so when his superiors tried to make things difficult for him, he just endured it again and again, and backed down again and again, and refused to argue with others.

He just looked like, "Oh, yes, yes, what you said is right," and it made it impossible for people to do anything to him.

The same goes for other people who support Xue Qinghe, who just want to be Ninja Turtles.

They did not endure for long, because just one year later, Xue Haizang also died in the same way as Xue Luochuan. This immediately confused those who supported Xue Haizang.

How could a healthy person die?

After Xue Luochuan's death, Xue Ye strengthened the guards of the imperial palace and protected the prince more closely, even sending out many soul masters. However, Xue Haizang still died.

Xue Ye was angry again. Two sons died in such a short time, how could he not be angry? So Di Hong went into the palace again to protect Xue Ye. At the same time, Xue Xing investigated again, but this time it was the same, with no results.

It is still an unsolved case.

But the only difference is that this time Xue Xing placed his suspicion on Xue Qinghe.

After all, the second prince and the third prince are dead, so how come only you, the eldest prince, are okay?
