The daughter of the emperor is beautiful and holds the power over the world
Chapter 117 Getting burned
Prince Chen said unconvincedly, "How did I get used? Jia Zhongchun openly opposed the Prime Minister's Office. Doesn't he deserve to die? I learned this trick from Mr. Wei and my uncle."
Qi Shuoyu was very confused. He had recently made the acquaintance of a chivalrous man. Today, when he saw Jia Zhongchun and Yan Longyi walking and talking on the street, he remembered that Jia Zhongchun had betrayed his uncle, and he became murderous.
He said that he had a grudge against Jia Zhongchun, and the knight immediately helped him assassinate Jia Zhongchun.
"Your Highness! You have caused us so much trouble!" Wei Shu almost vomited blood in anger.
The emperor was already keeping an eye on them, and now Jia Zhongchun had just switched sides to Prince Yong. Even if they didn't do it, everyone would think they did.
He only had people destroy Jia Zhongchun's daughter so that Jia Zhongchun would have no way to express his grievances and would not dare to reveal them to the outside world.
Prince Chen, on the other hand, directly ordered people to assassinate him openly on the street, which was tantamount to spreading the arrogance of the Imperial Noble Consort and the Prime Minister's party everywhere.
Qi Shuoyu snorted coldly: "I don't understand what Mr. Wei is talking about."
Wei Shu was too lazy to explain to Qi Shuoyu, and just asked coldly: "Where is the killer now?"
Qi Shuoyu said angrily: "I had someone hide him."
Wei Shu said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, please deal with it immediately, otherwise you will bring disaster upon yourself."
"No!" Qi Shuoyu said expressionlessly, "I have already released him."
That was a knight he had finally met, much more powerful than those masters under Wei Shu. He couldn't bear to see that knight die.
Wei Shu was filled with anger: "Your Highness, do you know that it is very likely that Yan Longyi let him go on purpose? It will be too late if we delay any longer."
Qi Shuoyu was very angry. This was his Prince Chen's Mansion, but it was made to look like Wei Shu's residence. He didn't even have a say.
Qi Shuoyu irritably shook his hands: "I don't care about that. You don't let me deal with Si Yan, and you don't let me deal with Jia Zhongchun?"
Wei Shu growled, "Do you think you can assassinate Jia Zhongchun in front of Yan Longyi? You've fallen for a trick. It's very likely that Jia Zhongchun was deliberately tricked, and Yan Longyi deliberately let him go. If you don't clear yourself of the matter now, it will be too late."
Qi Shuoyu: ...
"Where are the people?" Wei Shu asked sternly.
"It's in this palace." Qi Shuoyu said dissatisfiedly.
"Knock, knock, knock! Knock, knock, knock!" Suddenly, there was a sound of knocking on the door outside Prince Chen's mansion.
King Chen was shocked, and Wei Shu's face was gloomy.
The housekeeper of Prince Chen's mansion opened the door and saw that the commander of the Shangjing City guards Feng Yu and the deputy commander Ling Mohan were both outside the door. The black armored guards outside showed that a large number of troops had been dispatched.
"My lords, what is this?" The housekeeper of Prince Chen's mansion tried his best to remain calm.
Ling Mohan said calmly, "Someone saw with their own eyes that the assassin who assassinated Lord Jia escaped into Prince Chen's mansion."
"Please wait a moment, my lords. I will go and report to King Chen." The housekeeper said as he was about to close the door.
Ling Mohan had already stepped inside. He glanced at the housekeeper of Prince Chen's Mansion and said, "Time is running out. Let's search first."
Outside the gate of Prince Chen’s Mansion, the Shangjing City Guards and people from the Zuowei Mansion rushed forward.
At this moment, with a "bang", a person was thrown out of the mansion and fell at Ling Mohan's feet.
Wei Shu then stepped out. "My Lords, is this the assassin you're looking for? He attempted to escape into Prince Chen's mansion, but we caught him."
There are many assassins in Prince Chen's mansion. Si Yan had mentioned this to His Majesty before, and His Majesty turned a blind eye and did not pursue the matter.
But if Ling Mohan and Feng Yu find out today and report it to His Majesty again, it will be troublesome.
"According to Lord Jia's description, this person is not an assassin."
Ling Mohan examined the man's appearance, slowly took out a painting from his sleeve and handed it to Wei Shu.
Wei Shu didn't expect that they would get the portrait so quickly, and the portrait was extremely strange. It was the killer he had sent to kill Jia Zhongchun's daughter.
Prince Chen was puzzled: "Is this a killer?"
"Your Highness," Wei Shu shouted, and Prince Chen immediately shut up. Wei Shu said calmly, "No such person has ever appeared in Prince Chen's mansion."
Ling Mohan said indifferently, "Whether this person is in Prince Chen's mansion or not, we will find out after we go in and search. His Majesty has ordered that the assassin who assassinated Lord Jia must be caught."
Wei Shu's face turned cold. "General Ling, if you want to search Prince Chen's mansion, you need His Majesty's permission. Otherwise, if His Majesty blames you, General Ling won't be able to bear the consequences."
Ling Mohan also grew up in the General's Mansion, and he has the temperament of a nobleman. He doesn't buy into Wei Shu's tricks.
"Mr. Wei, His Majesty has already said that the assassin who assassinated Lord Jia must be apprehended at all costs. If Mr. Wei interferes with our official duties, His Majesty will blame him, and Mr. Wei will not be able to bear the consequences."
As he spoke, Ling Mohan waved his hand to the brothers behind him and ordered coldly: "Search!"
The capital guards and people from the Zuowei Mansion rushed in quickly, and Wei Shu's face was gloomy.
The guards soon discovered that there were many strange people in Prince Chen's mansion.
These people were wearing the clothes of servants in Prince Chen's mansion, but they looked strong and powerful, with murderous intent in their eyes.
The guards found a number of swords in the backyard wing. Ling Mohan walked up to King Chen and asked, "Who are these people? And why are they carrying weapons?"
"These are the guards temporarily hired by Prince Chen's Mansion." Wei Shu said in a deep voice.
"Guards? These people don't look like guards by the way they're dressed."
At this time, they found many black night clothes from the rooms where these people lived.
"They are my guards," King Chen defended.
Ling Mohan said coldly: "Capture these suspicious individuals and report to His Majesty for disposal."
"Who dares to take action?" King Chen stood up and stood in front of Ling Mohan.
"Catch him." Ling Mohan and Feng Yu gave the order and arrested the black-clad killer from Prince Chen's Mansion.
The killer in black looked at Wei Shu's reaction, but Wei Shu said nothing.
Wei Shu glanced outside the door. Thousands of guards from the capital were dispatched. If they resisted, they would only die, and their abilities would be exposed.
Wei Shu closed his eyes and could only let Ling Mohan and Feng Yu take all these people away.
Fortunately, only one-fifth of their killers are in Prince Chen's Mansion. Even if these people are exposed, he still has plenty of people.
Si Yan and Prince Yong left the palace, while the genius doctor Yun Ya stayed in the palace.
Now that the Imperial Medical Service has been completely reshuffled, the news that the genius doctor Yun Ya treats the emperor is no longer a secret.
Qi Ziyu experienced Si Yan's superb skills for the first time today.
A Yan's tactic of retreating to advance not only made his father more vigilant and disgusted with the Imperial Noble Concubine and the Prime Minister's party, but also planted a landmine.
As long as someone steps on this landmine, his engagement with A Yan will naturally be cancelled.
Qi Ziyu was extremely impressed by Si Yan's move.
"Your Highness, I didn't tell you about the cancellation of the engagement..."
"Ah Yan, you don't need to explain anything to me. I promised Ah Yan a long time ago. Now that I can get what I want, I am very happy..."
Qi Ziyu had a smile on his face, and his eyes, as tolerant as the sea, concealed all emotions.
Si Yan replied softly, "Whether we are engaged or not, the fate of the Situ Mansion and the Prince Yong Mansion are linked together."
"I know." Prince Yong smiled slightly, "Whatever Ah Yan does, I will support him."
Si Yan nodded: "How is the prince's health recently?"
"I feel much better." Qi Ziyu said, then after a pause, he continued, "Yu Nie failed to protect Lord Jia. If you are not used to her, you can replace her..."
"No need, it's not her fault this time." Si Yan replied softly.
Today's events are not simple. Yan Longyi and Jia Zhongchun are together. Si Yan will know the truth as soon as he goes back and asks.
