At this moment, the Chunfeng Pavilion was ablaze. After a while, Mo Yan and Mo Wen came out with their men, carrying only Zi Yan, with grim expressions on their faces, "Your Majesty, the others are dead."

Chu Tianze looked at the King Xiang and the King Qi who were looking puzzled, and sneered, "Take her back, and treat Miss Zi Yan well."

Chu Tianling said calmly, "Seventh Brother, it would be inappropriate for you to take the person away. This person tried to assassinate me, so it would be better for me to take him back for questioning."

For some reason, Prince Xiang also spoke up, "This is about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. In my opinion, it would be more appropriate to hand it over to the Jingzhao Prefecture Governor or the Ministry of Justice."

Chu Tianze raised his eyebrows, "Don't worry, my two brothers. My father sent me to reorganize the defense of the capital, but now something like this has happened. Naturally, I will take this person back, so that I can give my father an explanation, right?"

After saying that, he didn't want to listen to what they were saying, so he chuckled and said, "It's not safe tonight either, Mo Yan, take your men to personally send Brother Sifang and Brother Zuian back."

Zhao Sifang and Bai Chuxiao chuckled, "Thank you, Your Highness Prince Yan."

The King of Qi and the King of Xiang could not say anything more, so they hurried away with their few remaining guards.

Bai Chuxiao quietly returned to the Liuli Courtyard and took off her disguise, but did not go to rest. Instead, she sat in the yard and waited quietly. After a while, a dark figure landed in the yard.

Looking at the smiling woman sitting in the courtyard, the visitor chuckled helplessly, "You, have had enough fun today."

Bai Chuxiao snorted coldly, "I heard that our Prince Yan went to visit a brothel, so I naturally want to go and see how fun this brothel is."

Chu Tianze said in a gentle voice, "Is Xiaoxiao jealous?"

Bai Chuxiao held up her chin and said, "Humph, I won't be jealous. If you are really the kind of person who visits brothels, I will just quietly destroy you."

Chu Tianze said lovingly, "Don't worry, Xiaoxiao, your husband will keep himself clean."

"It's good that you know. How did you recognize me?"

"Although your face looks different, your body shape has not changed. I know you and have never seen you in Kyoto before. You came here with Zhao Sifang. I know your relationship with Zhao Sifang, so it is not difficult to guess."

Thinking about the playboy look of the woman next to him in Chunfeng Pavilion just now, he smiled helplessly, "You, don't go to that kind of place again, you seduce those girls to lose their souls."

"Seriously, I'm afraid it's not just Chu Tianling's doing today. King Xiang is also involved?" Bai Chuxiao said with a faint smile

At first, she only suspected Chu Tianling, but later, Prince Xiang suddenly wanted to send Zi Yan to the Ministry of Justice, and she also became suspicious of Prince Xiang. If Prince Xiang had nothing to do with this matter, wouldn't he just have to watch the show?

"You guessed it. That's right. Lao Liu thought Zi Yan was his person, but in fact, Lao Wu was behind Zi Yan. But he should have figured it out later tonight," Chu Tianze said in a deep voice.

"I didn't expect that the King of Xiang, who usually keeps a low profile, would make such a big move today."

Chu Tianze chuckled, "Xiaoxiao, don't underestimate my fifth brother. He is very scheming. If we really talk about scheming, the sixth brother can't match him. Moreover, the fifth brother has the support of the right prime minister, who is a real old fox. The left and right prime ministers in the court monitor all officials, and they have many officials they can use. Otherwise, why do you think my prince brother is so determined to get in touch with your father?"

Bai Chuxiao nodded. She admired martial arts, so she naturally valued military commanders more. However, the world was relatively peaceful now, so civil officials played a more important role in most of the time.

"So it seems that the Ministry of Justice and the Jingzhao Prefecture Governor are the Prince of Xiang's men?"

Chu Tianze shook his head. "The Ministry of Justice is theirs. The Jingzhao Prefecture Governor should be a cover he made up. For an official like the Jingzhao Prefecture Governor, my father would only release someone who is loyal to him."

"You should have made arrangements for tonight in advance, otherwise the Beijing Guards wouldn't have come so quickly."

"Of course, if Chu Tianling really succeeds tonight, the prince will die, and I, who has just taken over the defense of the capital, will also be punished. But the show must go on, so He Yan and the others cannot come too late or too early."

Bai Chuxiao sighed inwardly. Sure enough, everyone in the royal family was cunning. Otherwise, how could they have grown up safely?

The prince has always been gentle but he is not stupid. He went to the banquet tonight even though he knew something was wrong, because he knew that as long as he brought Chu Tianze along, he would not be in real danger. If he could find out something about the King of Qi and the King of Xiang, even if he couldn't, His Majesty would always have doubts about his other brothers. Why not do it?

The King of Qi's move was so blatant that if it succeeded, he could get rid of both the Crown Prince and the King of Yan. Moreover, the assassins tried to kill him first, and then there was a fire, which destroyed most of the evidence, so they couldn't find anything about him.

The King of Xiang was the one who benefited the most. Zi Yan was his servant, and no one knew about it beforehand. Even if someone discovered something, it was all the work of the King of Qi. He did not order anything, but just asked Zi Yan to cooperate with the King of Qi.

"Zi Yan is the King's man, she will probably blame everything on Chu Tianling."

Chu Tianze smiled faintly, "Yes, but now Old Six has realized what's going on and will not let her live, so my Prince Yan's Mansion should be very lively now."

Chu Tianling never doubted Zi Yan, otherwise he would definitely have left her a backup plan and let her die directly, instead of intentionally keeping her alive to let her identify other people. What a pity, he miscalculated.

"Will Chu Tianling be mad to death after being tricked by King Xiang?" Bai Chuxiao smiled. After all, she was very happy that Chu Tianling was in trouble.

"Zi Yan won't say it easily. During this period, Lao Liu won't sit still and wait for death. This matter will ultimately depend on the attitude of the emperor..."

Bai Chuxiao sighed slightly. It seems that it is not so easy to see Chu Tianling in trouble.

Chu Tianze looked at her and patted her head, "Xiaoxiao, are you a little disappointed?"

"No, it's just that the more I interact with Chu Tianling, the more I feel he is like a poisonous snake. It would be great if he could step down soon."

Chu Tianze had arranged everything before, so he came directly to Bai Mansion without worrying about the situation in Yanwang Mansion.

At this time, the Prince of Yan's Mansion was surrounded by archers from the Beijing Guards, and a group of men in black kept trying to rush in.

Yu Fengyang stood in the courtyard holding a sword and watching all this, cursing, "You damn Chu Tianze, you went to have fun by yourself and left me here to watch the door for you, how ridiculous!"

Mo Yan and Mo Wen stood beside him and pretended not to hear him scolding their own prince. After all, this was indeed something their own prince did that was not right.

At this time, a middle-aged man in a black robe rushed in with some people. The black-robed man in the lead shouted, "Yu Fengyang, if you don't want to die, get out of the way!"

Yu Fengyang sneered, "Oh, you know me, sir, who are you? Why are you hiding so much?"

Although he said this, he was on high alert. The man in front of him was definitely an expert, but...

The leader in black robe said in a deep voice, "You are looking for death, so don't blame me. Remember to choose a good master for yourself in your next life." After saying that, he rushed up with a sharp sword energy.

Yu Fengyang laughed a few times, waved his hand, and suddenly many people and horses appeared in the dark.

The black-robed man was shocked, "Xuanjia Army, you are so bold to dare to move Xuanjia Army without permission!"

Yu Fengyang snorted coldly, "What you just said is right, remember, choose a good master for yourself in your next life."

Unexpectedly, the man in black robes abandoned the people he brought with him and ran away. He couldn't let himself be caught again...
