When Chu Boxiong heard this, he put down the cinnabar pen in his hand and glanced at Hou Sizheng. His eyes suddenly became cold, as if they were in a cold cave for thousands of years, which made people shiver.

"You mean I asked someone to do this?" Chu Boxiong suddenly asked.

When Hou Sizheng heard this, his heart was filled with confusion. He hurriedly knelt down and said, "I don't dare, I don't dare."

"Then why are you telling me this?" Chu Boxiong looked coldly at Hou Sizheng who was kneeling on the ground and asked coldly.

"I just heard that Mr. Zhou was killed, and I felt sorry in my heart, so I wanted to tell His Majesty." Hou Sizheng's voice was trembling, for fear that he might say something wrong and offend the man in front of him.

"I knew that Zi Ya admired Zhou Kui, and I also knew that he was wooing Zhou Kui. I didn't stop him. It's just that Zhou Kui shouldn't have secret connections with Zizhan. I let him resign and return to his hometown, which is considered a mercy."

Hou Sizheng didn't know why Chu Boxiong said this for no reason, but since His Majesty had already said it, as a slave, he could only listen. Of course, Hou Sizheng was listening on his knees. Until now, he didn't even dare to raise his head, for fear of

It was seeing those eyes that made people feel like they had fallen into an ice cave.

Chu Boxiong changed the topic and changed his cold aura before saying: "But I didn't expect that Zhou Kui would meet the robbers, which is a bit regrettable. I sent people to bury Zhou Kui alive and sent people to his hometown at the same time.

Good luck with the pension."

"Old slave, take your orders." Hou Sizheng kowtowed, then followed up with this seemingly ineffective order.

What kind of result was this? They only said that they would provide for their family members and give them a good burial. They didn't even mention the incident of the group of robbers they met on the road. Anyone with a discerning eye would know that there must be something to this.

"Is there anything going on at Zizhan?" Chu Boxiong picked up the cinnabar pen on the table again, carefully corrected the memorial on the table, and asked Hou Sizheng at the same time.

"The eldest prince has been ill recently. I heard that he has been staying at home behind closed doors to thank guests. Even a few days ago, His Highness the prince also visited the eldest prince, but he went into the mansion. I heard that the one who stayed for a long time before coming out was the eldest prince's.

Old housekeeper, sent by Uncle Wu

He came out, but he seemed to have encountered an assassin yesterday, and the eldest prince was stabbed again. Now there is quite a big fuss about this matter outside. I heard that the assassin is Deng Yue and..." Hou Sizheng is not

If I dare to speak further, I am only afraid of myself

Your Majesty did not want to hear it.

"The other one is probably that boy from Qijiazhuang." Chu Boxiong said what Hou Sizheng didn't dare to say.

"Exactly, now the two of them are on the wanted list. The eldest prince is really hurt this time. He has already declined many people who came to visit him."

Chu Boxiong glanced at Hou Sizheng noncommittally, and then said: "Are you injured? Recuperate at home? Why did I hear that the eldest prince left the city last night?"

Hou Sizheng pretended to be confused, as if it was the first time he heard about it, and then said: "This old slave has never heard of it."

"Humph, this traitor, do you really think that I, as my father, don't know what he is doing recently?" Although Chu Boxiong said harsh words, he still did not change his movements in correcting the memorial, "What a good method.

I got all Bai Fengtang into my hands and made Deng Yue stumble. Wow, I really underestimated him before."

After finishing speaking, Chu Boxiong actually laughed, as if he was very happy, and then said: "They all say that Zizhan looks like me, hahaha, it is true, it is true!"

Hearing this sentence, Hou Sizheng's whole body trembled. This is not a small thing. In other words, Chu Boxiong's words can be big or small. To say it is small, it is just a casual saying, but if it is big

He said that there was a suspicion of changing the prince.

At this time, the little eunuch waiting outside sent a message, saying that Master Twelve requested to come in.

Hou Sizheng also knew that there were some things that he couldn't listen to, or that he deliberately didn't listen to certain things. What's more, he seemed to have heard a lot of things that he shouldn't have heard today. If he really stayed here any longer, he couldn't guarantee what he would hear again.

Only a fool would continue to stay here if he did something wrong. Thinking of this, Hou Sizheng hurriedly got up and left.

Chu Boxiong did not keep him, but just asked him to bring Twelve in before leaving.

Hou Sizheng left, seemingly to make arrangements for pensions for Zhou Kui's family, but Twelve stayed.

"Did you do what happened to Zhou Kui?" Chu Boxiong asked Twelve when he saw Hou Sizheng leaving.

"I don't know why your majesty said this. I just heard that Mr. Zhou died after encountering robbers. Why did you blame the matter on me again?" Twelve said to Chu Boxiong, neither humble nor arrogant.

Chu Boxiong smiled, and then said to Twelve: "Zhou Kui is also the head guard of the palace, and his level is considered to be top-notch among high-level martial arts masters. How could he be killed by a group of robbers?

"

Chu Boxiong and Twelve explained the suspicious aspects of this matter, but his attitude was not to question the other party, but to simply talk about a very common thing that had nothing to do with him.

After hearing what Chu Boxiong said, Twelve did not hesitate at all, but replied: "I do know some reasons for this."

Chu Boxiong stopped approving the memorial. Instead, he looked at Twelve with interest and asked, "Oh? What's the reason?"

"Because before Mr. Zhou left Kyoto, I had a glass of wine with him and passed on a message." Twelve said, that cold mask looked particularly cold in the study.

"Is there poison in the wine, or is there something behind the words?" Chu Boxiong became more curious and asked at the same time.

"There is no poison in the wine, and there are no words in the words." Twelve said, just paused, and then continued, "I told Mr. Zhou that your Majesty does not want him to live."

After hearing this, Chu Boxiong was not angry, but laughed, and then suddenly shouted to Twelve: "When did I ask you to spread this?"

Although Twelve was wearing a mask, Chu Boxiong did not feel a trace of fear from his aura.

"Where are those robbers?" Seeing Twelve being so calm, Chu Boxiong changed the topic.

"Because I knew Master Zhou's identity, I committed suicide out of fear of crime." Twelve replied.

Chu Boxiong seemed very satisfied with Twelve's answer and nodded. At the same time, he just changed the topic. He seemed to no longer want to worry about Zhou Kui's matter, but pushed a secret letter on the desk to Twelve.

Pushed, and then said to him: "This was delivered this morning with the three-hundred-mile express delivery to Yecheng."

Twelve did not step forward to take a look, because he knew that there were some things that he could not see if he wanted to, even if the person in front of him took the initiative to push the secret letter to him.

When Chu Boxiong saw Twelve not moving, he smiled again and said lightly: "Are you afraid that I will kill you?"
