When Su Xuan woke up, Li Mu had not returned yet.

He waited for a while, but seeing that Li Mu was nowhere to be seen, he said hello to the housekeeper and left.

Walking on the streets, you can see patrolling soldiers everywhere. Without thinking too much, the whole city must be under martial law.

I just don’t know whether they have blocked this news. If it really gets out, Zhao State will definitely lose face.

If we do not send troops to attack Qin, we will inevitably become a shame for the Seven Kingdoms.

But now their strength is far from being a match for Qin. They can still compete with the Qin army in guarding the city, but if they really take the initiative to attack, the Qin army will be more than happy to help.

Among the seven kingdoms, who doesn't know the bravery of the Qin people? In field battles, they are almost invincible, and it is difficult for any army to compete with them.

Besides, the reason why Su Xuan took the initiative to find Li Mu was to create an alibi.

He even thought about changing the time on the gnomon to achieve a perfect alibi.

He had seen many elementary school students of the God of Death in his previous life, so he knew this little trick.

But in the end he gave up. As long as he had done it, there would be traces. The more he did, the more mistakes he would make. Why leave himself a loophole?

Killing in a dream, killing in a dream.

The murderer was the one who covered the sun. What does it have to do with Su Xuan?

He felt at ease, as if nothing had happened, without any guilt at all.

Soon, he arrived at Linglong Pavilion.

"Why is there a sudden curfew? Do you know what happened?" Xue Nu knew that Su Xuan went to the General's Mansion last night, so she asked this question.

"Zhao Qian is dead." Su Xuan answered casually. His face was calm, as if he was narrating the most ordinary little thing.

"What's going on?" The Snow Girl was surprised and happy.

"I killed him." Su Xuan calmly poured himself a cup of tea and took a sip.

The Snow Girl opened her mouth slightly and looked at him in disbelief.

When he said let him handle it, he meant to just kill Zhao Qian directly?

But this is indeed the fastest and most effective method.

But isn't he too bold?

This is the crown prince of Zhao State, and he will become the king of Zhao State in two days.

But he killed Zhao Qian directly as if he was killing a chicken or a duck.

The calmer he acted at the moment, the more shocked the Snow Girl was in her heart.

When she thought that all Su Xuan did was for her, her heart trembled, and her eyes seemed to be full of stars and countless tenderness.

Before Su Xuan could react, a soft body came up to him. She hugged Su Xuan tightly and rested her chin on his shoulder.

"What's wrong?" Su Xuan patted her back gently.

"nothing."

She turned her head slightly and became a little shy.

Whispering softly in Su Xuan's ear, "I can try the things you mentioned before."

After she finished speaking, her face turned bright red, even her earlobes were red.

Su Xuan was stunned for a moment before he reacted.

He quickly took a sip of water to cover up the action of swallowing saliva.

Why do I suddenly feel like a devil is whispering in my ear?

hiss~

He took a deep breath and saw the snow-white head buried.

A highbrow piece of music is being played quietly.

......

The court of Zhao State encountered an unprecedented earthquake.

The crown prince and king of Zhao were actually killed. The means were so cruel that it was appalling.

And we don’t even know who the murderer is, it’s ridiculous!

Of course, this only applies to ordinary court officials.

Li Mu, Guo Kai, Chunping Jun and others had already known the truth, but they joined forces to suppress the news.

Chunping Jun was the son of the royal family of Zhao. There were rumors in the palace that he had an affair with Queen Zhao Daochang. He had the support of the elders and formed a clique in secret. He was ambitious and wanted to replace Guo Kai.

"Everyone, hunting down the murderer is important, but the country cannot be without a ruler for a day. Only when King Zhao ascends the throne can the people be stabilized and the country be at peace." Chunping Jun looked around and expressed his opinion.

Zhao Qian’s death was certainly shocking, but it was also an opportunity.

An opportunity to support a new monarch and seize more power. In the past, King Zhao Daoxiang favored Guo Kai, and the power of state affairs was in his hands, so outsiders had no chance to interfere.

But now that Prince Qian is dead, there will no longer be any king standing up for him. The power he holds will be like a tall building without a foundation, which will collapse in an instant with just the slightest push.

"I agree with Chunping Jun's opinion. Zhao State needs a wise monarch to preside over the government. I think Prince Jia is the best choice."

"I agree with you."

......

More than a dozen people spoke up in the court, and the number was still increasing. Guo Kai had a gloomy expression on his face, and he wanted to say that Gongzi Jia was the biggest beneficiary of this incident, and the assassin was most likely sent by him.

But he knew that even if he said it, it would not have any impact on the result, but would instead make him hated by Gongzi Jia.

King Zhao Daoxiang had two sons. After the death of Crown Prince Zhao Qian, the only heir was Prince Jia.

This is an indisputable fact and an established fact.

Unless someone is crazy enough to assassinate Prince Jia, the Zhao court will be in complete chaos.

Guo Kai didn't have the courage to do that.

Who is it!

Guo Kai was furious. His life had just reached its peak, but someone had ruined his plans. If he were to find the person, he would cut the person into pieces to vent his hatred!

For him, Zhao Qian's succession to the throne and Zhao Jia's succession to the throne were two completely different concepts. He had supported Zhao Qian all the way, and they had a close relationship, and he trusted Zhao Qian almost blindly.

As for Zhao Jia, in the beginning, he was the crown prince of Zhao State. It was he who conspired with Queen Zhao Daochang to make him make a mistake, which led to the abolition of his crown prince position.

Although he was respectful and looked weak every time I saw him before, will he still be like this after he becomes King of Zhao?

The biggest difference between him and Zhao Qian is that he has already been crowned and can personally manage state affairs. He has no reason to keep the regency power in his own hands.

It can be said that because of Zhao Qian's death, his power is no longer as great as before.

"I also agree. Let Young Master Jia take charge of the government and stabilize the overall situation." Li Mu stood up, and his words had the final say.

This matter was finally finalized at this court meeting.
