Chu Ning wrote the letter and sent someone to Zhao State to give it to Han Xing.

At this moment, the sky gradually darkened, and lanterns and candles were lit in the courtyard.

"Ran Ming, prepare the horses, take a team with you, and go out with me."

"Where are you going, Your Highness?"

"You'll know when you go there!"

Chu Ning did not answer, but asked Ran Ming to prepare the war horse as soon as possible.

Soon, the war horses were ready, and Chu Ning led everyone on horseback towards the city.

The sound of horse hooves disturbed the peace of the place.

The further he walked, the more familiar this road seemed to Ran Ming.

But he didn't dare ask.

With doubts, Ran Ming followed Chu Ning to a huge manor.

Ran Ming has been to this place before.

"Your Highness, isn't this the Daqin Inn? Is this where Princess Changping lives? Are you going to look for Princess Changping?"

"Can't you?"

Chu Ning got off the horse and said calmly, "You and the king go in, and the others stay outside."

After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the mansion.

Ran Ming hesitated for a moment, but still followed and reached out to stop Chu Ning.

Chu Ning raised his eyebrows: "Why are you stopping me?"

Ran Ming touched his huge bald head and said with an embarrassed look: "Your Highness, although I know you have needs, you can't do anything to let the princess down."

Chu Ning was stunned, not understanding what this guy wanted to express.

Seeing Chu Ning didn't say anything, Ran Ming plucked up his courage and whispered: "You came to see Princess Changping in the middle of the night. It's a man and a woman alone together. What if..."

"Ouch~"

Before he could finish his words, the bald man was hit on the head by Chu Ning.

"What are you talking about? Am I that kind of person?"

Chu Ning glared at him fiercely: "I have something important to discuss with Princess Changping!"

After saying that, he pushed Ran Ming away and walked forward.

Ran Ming grinned, touched his bald head, curled his lips, and followed.

It was obvious that he didn't believe Chu Ning's words.

He even felt that Chu Ning had been out for too long and had no woman around him, so he came to find Princess Changping late at night.

But Chu Ning was the master, and he had no way to persuade him, so he could only follow behind.

After being informed, the two were welcomed into the living room by a guard.

Ran Ming naturally didn't dare to go in, so he just waited outside the door of the hall.

Chu Ning came to the living room and saw a beautiful woman in purple tights, staring at him with a smile on her face.

Who else could it be but Princess Changping!

"Your Highness the Prince of Chu is a rare guest. Why did you suddenly come to see me tonight?"

Without waiting for Chu Ning to speak, Princess Changping asked with a smile.

Chu Ning laughed: "Why, can't you come to see Princess Changping if you have nothing to do?"

"Okay, put away your tricks!"

Princess Changping sneered: "We have known each other for such a long time, who are you? Don't you think I don't know?"

"You came to see me so late at night. If it's not an emergency, then you did it on purpose."

Although he was pretending to be angry, his look looked quite different under the candlelight.

After being used to seeing the gentleness of women, meeting a heroic woman like Princess Changping really makes people want to conquer her.

But who is Chu Ning? He has seen so many women, not to mention Feng Mulan, whose personality is similar to that of Princess Changping.

Soon he came back to his senses, grinned, and said, "I came here tonight for something important!"

"I knew it!"

Princess Changping stretched out her hand and rolled her eyes: "Sit down and talk."

Chu Ning did not delay and sat down on a chair nearby.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Princess Changping asked straight to the point without wasting any words.

Chu Ning, who had originally looked cheerful, suddenly fell silent.

This abnormal behavior seemed to make Princess Changping realize something, and her face gradually turned cold.

The two people who were originally talking and laughing suddenly fell silent.

The hall was completely silent.

Outside the hall, Ran Ming couldn't hear any sound and couldn't help but turn his head to look inside the hall.

Seeing that both of them were sitting in their chairs without talking, he couldn't help scratching his head, looking puzzled.

Fortunately, the two people in the hall did not remain silent for long. Princess Changping took the initiative to ask, "Why, you just sit here and don't say anything?"

Chu Ning suddenly sighed: "Princess Changping, it's been half a month, don't you plan to plead guilty?"

"Confess?"

Princess Changping narrowed her eyes, and a strange look flashed across them: "What crime do you want me to confess?"

"Of course it's the crime of murdering the King of Wu!"

Chu Ning's face suddenly darkened, and he said in a cold voice: "In Chang'an City, there are not many people in the Zhao Kingdom's imperial army who are capable of killing the King of Wu. Princess Changping, you are one of them!"

But these words made Princess Changping sneer.

"Even if I have the ability to kill him, you can't prove that I killed him, right?"

Princess Changping stared at Chu Ning: "Speaking of which, the person who has the ability to kill the King of Wu, you, the King of Chu, are one of them!"

Of course she denied being the murderer.

Not only do they refuse to admit it, they even fight back.

Women's desire for revenge is so strong!

But since Chu Ning dared to come, he must have evidence.

"Princess Changping, there is no need to quibble. Just listen to what I have to say."

Chu Ning was not angry at Princess Changping's rebuttal, and said calmly: "First of all, the motive for murder. The King of Wu provoked you, which was the most direct reason for your action."

But this made Princess Changping sneer again: "If you want to talk about provoking, it seems that you have more conflicts with him."

"As for the motive for murder, you are more suspicious than this princess."

After all, she was born into a royal family and received education since childhood, so Princess Changping's wisdom is far beyond that of ordinary people.

Moreover, facing the charge of murder, she certainly would not plead guilty easily.

But Chu Ning shook his head and snorted coldly: "This is just your motive for murder. What I want to talk about next is the time of the crime."

"That night, you and some of your men were not in this inn, but went out secretly."

"Although you did it very covertly, you were still discovered. This is the only clue I have found in the past half month."

Princess Changping frowned and was about to retort, but Chu Ning said coldly: "Why, Princess Changping, do you want me to capture your people and torture them?"

"you dare!"

"Do you think I dare to do it?"

Chu Ning snorted coldly and raised his eyebrows, saying, "I don't know why you want to kill King Wu, but King Wu and I don't get along, and I wish he would die."

"So, I can help you with this matter!"

"As long as you do what I say, I believe the Emperor of Han will not dare to do anything to you."

"Now, you have two choices. Either you refuse to confess, or I will bring people to capture you and torture you severely."

"Either you cooperate with me and confess your guilt, I will ensure that you leave the Han Dynasty safely."

In fact, from the very beginning, Chu Ning suspected that King Wu was killed by Princess Changping, but he had no evidence.

In the past half month, he finally found out the movements of Princess Changping and some of her soldiers that night.

This is enough to prove that Princess Changping had enough time to take action.

However, the King of Wu was a native of Zhao, and now that Zhao had been destroyed, it was impossible for Chu Ning to offend Princess Changping for this man.

But on the surface, we must give an explanation to the Han Dynasty.

So, he chose to cooperate with Princess Changping.

If successful, even if Princess Changping confessed her guilt, Liu Che would not dare to do anything to her.
