Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

As soon as Chu Ning captured Wei Kangping and Su Wenguang, the Fourth Prince came impatiently to demand the people.

Everyone knows that these two people are not only robbers, but also very likely related to the person who assassinated the seventh prince.

If we can get clues from these two people, we will definitely be able to accomplish great things.

This is the death of a prince. Even though the emperor has many sons, this matter must be taken seriously.

As long as you find the person behind the scenes, you will definitely be able to improve your status and reputation.

Chu Ning looked at the Fourth Prince who came to ask for someone, with no surprise on his face, and said calmly: "Fourth brother, these two people have special identities, I'm afraid they won't confess easily."

Seeing that Chu Ning did not refuse immediately, the Fourth Prince's eyes lit up: "Don't bother me, Eighteenth Brother, to worry about this. As long as you give these two people to me, I will naturally find a way to make them speak."

Ran Ming was furious when he heard this: "We captured the person, why should we give him to you!"

The fourth prince's eyes turned cold, and he was about to start scolding, but Chu Ning took the lead and said with a smile: "Today's matter is all thanks to the help of fourth brother.

However, it is impossible to hand over both of them to you, so how about this, you choose one person, and we can interrogate them separately, and at the same time we can see if the information they say matches. "

The Fourth Prince thought about it and decided that it would not be a bad idea to bring one person back with him. It was better than having no one at all.

Besides, Chu Ning let him choose first, so he has the right to choose!

There is no point in persisting any longer, so it is better to go with the flow.

"In this case, I will take Su Wenguang away!" The Fourth Prince gave his answer without hesitation.

The Fourth Prince felt that as the commander of the city defense camp, he should know more than Wei Kangping who was guarding the city gate!

Chu Ning was not surprised by this, and nodded with a smile: "In this case, Su Wenguang will be handed over to you, fourth brother.

Come, bring Su Wenguang over here!"

The white horse cavalry took Su Wenguang over, and the Fourth Prince's personal guards immediately went up to take over this person.

"Fourth brother, my palace has been attacked and I need to return to the city immediately. Bye!"

Chu Ning didn't want to waste time talking, so he immediately bowed and left quickly with his men.

The fourth prince looked at Chu Ning's departing back, with a hint of amusement on his face: "He's in a hurry to go back, just to interrogate Wei Kangping as soon as possible!"

After saying that, he turned to look at Su Wenguang and sneered, "If you fall into my hands, you will only have two choices. Either tell the truth or suffer torture!"

Su Wenguang gave the Fourth Prince a fierce look and said, "Want to get information from me? Dream on!"

"Really? It seems like you have a very tough bone!"

The Fourth Prince's expression changed, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Come here, fight for me!"

He did not wait to return to the city, but tortured people on the spot, wanting to find out who was behind Su Wenguang as soon as possible.

But since Su Wenguang was caught, he was naturally prepared. Facing the beatings from everyone, he actually laughed wildly.

"Fight, keep fighting for me!"

The Fourth Prince's hands were shaking with anger, and he ordered the fight to continue.

At this moment, Chu Ning brought Ran Ming and others back to the palace. On the way, Ran Ming couldn't help but ask:

"Your Highness, why do you want to hand over Su Wenguang?"

Chu Ning galloped on his horse and said calmly, "If you don't hand the person over, he will never give up. At this moment, the palace in the city has been attacked, and we don't know what's going on. We must rush back as soon as possible.

In addition, handing Su Wenguang over to the fourth brother can also share some of the pressure and attract the attention of the people behind the scenes.

This person was able to unite Wei Kangping and Su Wenguang. He must be extremely capable and have considerable power in the court.

Although I am not afraid of this person, we don't have many soldiers in the city right now, wouldn't it be better to have someone share some of the pressure?"

The long speech made Ran Ming touch his head and curl his lips, unable to listen at all.

In his opinion, it would be enough to just bring the two back to the city, there was no need to go through so many twists and turns.

But this was Chu Ning's order, he had no right to refuse and could only obey.

But the matter of Prince Chu's Palace made his eyes light up: "If we go to the palace now, maybe we can catch up!"

Chu Ning's mouth twitched, knowing that what he had just said was in vain.

Explaining to this big guy is like playing the lute to a cow.

Soon, the team arrived at the city gate. The guarding soldiers here had been brought out by Wei Kangping and were wiped out outside the city, leaving this place unguarded. Chu Ning and others entered the city smoothly.

Prince Chu's Mansion.

After Deng Hongwen killed all the masked men, he asked Shen Wanying to come out and take charge of the situation.

Looking at the wounded who were being helped down, Shen Wanying showed a look of distress on her face: "The injured must be taken care of. In addition, their salary this month will be tripled!"

No matter what, these people were injured while protecting the palace, and she couldn't just sit back and watch.

"Lord Deng, what are our casualties?" She was most concerned about the losses.

Deng Hongwen said in a deep voice: "Princess, please rest assured. Our losses are not great. The follow-up matters will be handled by Lord Liu Shouren."

Liu Shouren was in charge of the Ministry of Revenue and was also responsible for the financial management of Chu Ning's entire industry.

The purpose of doing this is to separate money and power so that one person does not control both the troops and the money.

Just like Deng Hongwen now controls the intelligence agency, but has no money.

Although Liu Shouren had money in his hands, he had no soldiers under his command.

Shen Wanying felt relieved when she heard that Liu Shouren would handle it.

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves was heard outside the mansion, and everyone suddenly became nervous, thinking that someone was coming to kill them again.

At this moment, a voice came from the gate of the mansion: "Your Highness!"

Who else except Chu Ning could come here at this time and be addressed as Your Highness?

Chu Ning walked over and glanced around the scene. He found that most of the bodies were those of men in black, and then he showed a look of satisfaction.

"My beloved, are you okay?" Chu Ning came to Shen Wanying, took her hand and looked her up and down and asked.

Shen Wanying rolled her eyes at him and said, "Thanks to you, I can't even leave the house. How could anything happen to me?"

Chu Ning touched his nose and said with a wry smile: "I am also worried about your safety. Fortunately, we caught a big fish this time. I believe we will be able to find the person behind it soon."

Deng Hongwen narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, hand the man over to me for interrogation."

Chu Ning nodded slightly: "This is what I meant, but you have to be careful. Wei Kangping is the general guarding the city gate. He has been in the army for many years and has experienced hundreds of battles. He is not comparable to ordinary people.

Today, I used Su Wenguang to lure this person out. Now let’s see if we can get any useful clues from him.”

"It's him!"

Deng Hongwen raised his eyebrows and said, "I didn't expect this person to be involved in this matter. And Su Wenguang, the commander of the city defense camp, is also an accomplice. It seems that the power behind this is far beyond our imagination.

By the way, Your Highness, there is news from Yunzhou that Yan State suddenly sent out troops, catching Lord Feng off guard. Your Majesty is currently trying to figure out how to deal with this matter."

Chu Ning's face changed slightly when he heard this: "Yan State actually still has the ability to send troops and even defeat Feng An State?"

After thinking for a while, Chu Ning made a prompt decision: "Go and interrogate Wei Kangping immediately. Ran Ming, immediately spread the news that Wei Kangping is in my hands and Su Wenguang is in my fourth brother's hands!"

He couldn't take care of Yunzhou's affairs for the time being, so he could only see if he could lead out the mastermind behind it.

Once the news of the arrest of these two people spreads, will the people behind the scenes remain indifferent?
