Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne
Chapter 912 It’s you!
"Boom~boom~boom~"
Zhao Yu walked into the hall with firm steps.
He first exchanged a glance with Chu Ning, then looked at Ying Zheng and bowed, "Greetings to His Majesty the Emperor of Qin!"
Ying Zheng nodded slightly: "No need to be polite, just tell me what you found out."
Zhao Yu frowned, hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Chu Ning.
Judging from the situation, he won't reveal any clues without Chu Ning's permission.
This scene made Ying Zheng angry and envious.
What made him angry was that Zhao Yu didn't take him seriously.
What I envy is that Chu Ning actually has such a loyal person.
Chu Ning nodded slightly when he saw this, and said calmly: "Go ahead, today I will reveal the true face of that person!"
Princess Changping immediately became interested and asked quickly, "Tell me what you found out."
Zhao Yu said solemnly: "Following the order of His Royal Highness the King of Chu, while you are all here today and the post house is empty, I will lead my soldiers to sneak into the post house secretly."
When these words were spoken, the envoys had different expressions.
A look of dissatisfaction appeared on Cao Zhang and Yan Wuji's faces, while Huo Quji had a gloomy face and looked unhappy.
Wu San Tong looked angry, while Ji Yinghao looked calm and had a clear conscience.
Li Ping of the Tang Dynasty twitched the corner of his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but seeing that no one spoke, he finally did not say anything.
Chu Ning took in everyone's expressions, and a hint of amusement appeared at the corner of his mouth.
At this time, the eleventh prince Chu Feng couldn't help but ask: "What did you find out?"
Zhao Yu shook his head: "Nothing was found in the posthouses of Great Yan, Great Han, Great Tang, Great Jin, Great Wei and Great Zhou."
When these words were spoken, everyone at the scene had different expressions.
Yan Wuji sneered: "Of course you can't find out anything that I haven't done."
Cao Zhang snorted coldly: "If you don't find the murderer today, I will make you give an explanation."
Huo Quji was full of impatience: "Since no clues have been found, the murderer is not one of us. Then when you first reported, you said you had found clues. Isn't this contradictory?"
Ji Yinghao narrowed his eyes, a hint of surprise flashed across his face: "If no clues are found among us, does it mean that the murderer is not among us?"
Wu Santong snorted coldly: "Of course we are not the murderer. Who would assassinate the prince of Chu when they have nothing better to do? Isn't this asking for trouble?"
Among all the envoys, only the Tang Dynasty envoy Li Ping did not speak.
But Zhao Yu shook his head: "Don't worry, everyone. I haven't finished what I said. Although the murderer was not found in several post houses, clues were found in other people's residences."
"other people?"
Princess Changping's eyes lit up: "In other words, they are not the murderer, but someone else?"
His eyes rolled and scanned the crowd, finally settling on Bai Zong.
He pointed at Bai Zong and asked, "Is it him?"
Bai Zong's face was gloomy: "Your Highness, I..."
"Not the Marquis of Songyuan!"
Zhao Yu interrupted Bai Zong before he finished speaking, "We've been to the Bai family before, but we didn't find any clues about the assassin."
"We finally found clues at the Chu State Inn. As we approached, I realized there were many experts inside."
"I went to investigate personally, and with my strength I was almost discovered. Fortunately I left in time."
When these words were spoken, everyone looked surprised.
Da Chu Inn?
Doesn't that mean that it was something that the princes of Chu did themselves?
At this moment, Yan Wuji suddenly burst into laughter: "What a joke, are you pointing fingers at Chu Ning?"
Chu Ning chuckled, "Of course not. My people were indeed in the post house at the beginning, but after I was injured, I moved into the palace, and my people also left the post house."
"So, now the soldiers in the post house belong to Eleventh Brother!"
After saying that, he turned to look at Chu Feng and asked calmly: "Eleventh Brother, am I right?"
Chu Feng's eyes were a little evasive, and he said in a low voice: "The posthouse is empty anyway, why can't my people move in?"
Chu Ning raised his eyebrows and was about to speak, but Chu Kuang suddenly rushed up, stared at Chu Feng, and asked angrily:
"You and Brother Twelve didn't live with us when you came to Yangcheng. Now we live in the palace, but you have stationed your troops in the post house!"
"Tell me, did you plan this? In order to prevent the assassins from being found, you placed these assassins in the post house?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Yan Wuji and others reacted immediately.
When such a big thing happened, both Qin and they were secretly investigating and sent people to look for each other's troops.
It was just that Chu Ning was injured and arranged to stay in the palace at that time, the Da Chu Posthouse was empty, and a prince of the Chu State died as a victim, so no one thought about investigating the Da Chu Posthouse.
Now it seems that it must have been the Eleventh Chu Feng who arranged those assassins in the Da Chu Inn!
"I see!"
Yan Wuji sneered and said, "What a great drama! I never thought that the mastermind behind this is actually someone from your Chu State."
"nonsense!"
Chu Feng was furious: "I just arranged my troops at the post house. How can you conclude that the assassination was done by me based on this alone?"
"You have no evidence, yet you want to make random accusations. Humph, you are simply wishful thinking!"
He turned to look at Chu Ning and said coldly: "Eighteenth brother, I know you are always ruthless, but I didn't expect you to be so cruel!"
"I am your elder brother. Even if you want to become the crown prince, you cannot deliberately put the blame on me for this matter."
"Humph, if the emperor knew that you wanted to eliminate your brother after becoming the crown prince, he would definitely deprive you of your position as crown prince!"
Once these words were spoken, he denied everything and instead put the blame on Chu Ning.
Upon hearing this, all the ministers started talking about it.
"This is indeed a good excuse. If we can use this to get rid of Chu Feng, then Chu Ning's position as the crown prince will be as stable as Mount Tai."
"Yes, this move is really vicious!"
"But this doesn't make sense. Why did Chu Feng place his troops in the post house?"
"Yes, the whole city was searched at that time, except for the Da Chu Posthouse. Maybe he was using this incident to avoid the search!"
For a moment, everyone was talking at once, expressing their thoughts.
Princess Changping couldn't help but frown when she heard this.
In fact, she believed in Chu Ning.
But now there is no solid evidence, so she can't make a statement.
Sitting on the dragon throne, Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes and a strange look flashed across them.
I have to say that what Chu Feng said does make sense.
What if Chu Ning was deliberately using the assassination as an excuse to harm Chu Feng?
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng took a deep breath and said with great momentum:
"There is insufficient evidence in this matter. If the King of Chu wants to identify Chu Feng, he needs to produce more evidence, otherwise this matter can only be put on hold for the time being."
He is not a fool and does not want to be used by Chu Ning.
"As for the evidence, of course there is!"
Chu Ning said calmly, "Those assassins have fought against the City Defense Battalion before. We just need to let the City Defense Battalion surround the Great Chu Posthouse and test the skills of those people in the Posthouse!"
