Chapter 8: Assassin

Li Tai stood on one side and looked at Gao Huanquan coldly. The only surviving assassin had been brought back to the Wei Palace by him, and there was time to interrogate him who sent them.

His Majesty Li Er frowned and looked at Gao Huanquan who was kneeling in front of him. He couldn't help but feel angry. It was not Gao Huanquan who was sent by Gao Guli to assassinate Gao Huanquan, who dared to assassinate Prince Rongliu in broad daylight in the Tang Dynasty. If Gao Huanquan really made any mistakes in Chang'an, how the court explained to Gao Jianwu even if he had a hundred mouths, he could not tell.

"Father." Li Tai stood up: "Xizi is still taking care of Xiaojing in the clinic. This time, Xiaojing was injured and unconscious in a coma in order to protect Yizi. Now I don't know what the situation is."

"Jing'er is injured?" His Majesty Li Er turned his eyes from Gao Huanquan to Li Tai, and his heart skipped a beat, but his expression remained calm: "It's very heavy?"

"When I went back to my father, I was just slashed by the assassin and had too much blood. However, Xiao Jing was already weak. After such trouble, looking at Master Sun's appearance, it might be a bit difficult."

Although Li Tai said seriously, it was the truth. At least Xuan Shijing was still unconscious before leaving. When Li Tai saw the solemn expression on Sun Simiao's face, he felt a little worried.

His Majesty Li Er narrowed his eyes, and a trace of murderous aura flashed in his eyes, passing by Gao Huanquan.

Gao Huanquan was already quite frightened on the pleasure boat. When he came into contact with His Majesty Li Er's gaze, his whole body became shaking in an instant and his body began to tremble.

"Your Majesty...My..."

"Gao Huanquan, do you know who is going to harm you?" His Majesty Li Er asked in a deep voice.

"My...I don't know..." Gao Huanquan was uneasy at this time. After learning that Princess Jinyang was not in trouble, the Emperor of Tang seemed to focus on the man named Jing'er. Is it the young man who fought with the assassin on the pleasure boat? What is his relationship with the Emperor of Tang...

Gao Huanquan secretly looked up and glanced at the two people standing next to him, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the prince, and began to guess Xuan Shijing's identity in his heart.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is here~~~" The loud shouts from the small yellow gate came from outside the Ganlu Hall.

Li Chengqian was alone and walked into the Ganlu Hall quickly. Seeing his fourth brother standing aside, the two of them had their eyes intersected and nodded slightly.

"My son has met my father." Li Chengqian bowed his fists.

"Forgive." His Majesty Li Er waved his hand: "I heard of Chengqian."

"Yes." Li Chengqian replied neatly: "Jingzhao Yin Mansion sent someone to the palace to repay him. Wei Zi was still in Qianjin Clinic. Xiao Jing had woken up, but he had lost too much blood and would probably have to take care of him for a while."

Upon hearing this, His Majesty Li Er breathed a sigh of relief: "Well, Jing'er is fine, Deyi."

"The slave is here." Deyi bowed in front of him.

"I will bring back Yizi, and then pick some top-quality blood-enriching and qi from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and send them all to the Marquis' Mansion, so that Jing'er can recover from the injury at home. I will deal with the assassin matter myself!" In the end, the majesty emitted by His Majesty Li Er's body had already suppressed Gao Huanquan, who was kneeling on the ground, and could not raise his head: "Gao Huanquan, you get up first."

Deyi received the order and withdrew. Deyi was very efficient in what His Majesty Li Er ordered.

His Majesty Li Er has not yet thought about how to deal with Gao Huanquan. Gao Huanquan is also a victim of such a thing. Although the incident occurred because of him, in Chang'an City, such a large number of assassins were discovered, which was also the fault of the Jinwu Guard. Since Gao Huanquan was in Chang'an and was an envoy sent by Rongliu King Gao Jianwu, then in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty had the responsibility to protect his safety, especially in the Chang'an imperial capital.

"Father, my son brought a knocked assassin from the pleasure boat. I don't know what my father would do about him." Li Tai heard that his father was going to ask about this matter himself, so he told the only living mouth.

"Send someone to the hall and I will interrogate it myself." His Majesty Li Er glanced at Gao Huanquan, and then said to Li Tai.

"Yes, Father." After saying that, he walked out of the hall and ordered the small yellow gate guarding outside the hall for a few words, and then returned to the Ganlu Hall.

Gao Huanquan, who retreated aside, was even more confused. Judging from His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, if the "Jing'er" was not injured, he would not have planned to personally ask about this matter. What is the origin of this "Jing'er".

Could it be the illegitimate son of His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty who was wandering outside...

Gao Huanquan was shocked by the idea that came out of his mind. He figured it out in his heart. Looking at the father and son in the hall, he felt even more guilty...

Gao Huanquan still didn't know His Majesty Li Er enough. If His Majesty Li Er really had an illegitimate child outside, he would have admitted it with great fanfare. His Majesty Li Er never cared about his poor reputation in this regard.

"Gao Huanquan, how have you been in Chang'an during this period?" asked His Majesty Li Er.

"Go back to Your Majesty, everything is fine." Gao Huanquan quickly stood up and answered.

"Who has anyone ever had a dispute?"

"No." Gao Huanquan thought seriously, then shook his head.

Since that's the case, the origin of these assassins remains to be investigated.

The palace fell into silence again.

After Deyi completed the matter that His Majesty Li Er explained, he returned to Ganlu Hall, walked to His Majesty Li Er, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Dai from Dali Temple is asking for a visit outside."

"Prince."

"No." Deyi responded, then shouted loudly: "Xuan, Dai Zhou, Dali Temple, meet him~~~"

When Dai Zhou, who was outside the hall, heard Deyi's voice, he adjusted his clothes and walked into the Ganlu Hall seriously.

"My minister Dai Zhou, please see Your Majesty." Dai Zhou bowed and bowed.

"I'm fine, Dai Qing comes to meet me. What's the point?" His Majesty Li Er looked at Dai Zhou.

"Report to Your Majesty, the attack on the Yanlailou Painting Boat in Xuanwu Lake in Chang'an City by assassins has already been related to the diplomatic relations between our Tang Dynasty and Goguryeo. Moreover, the young minister of Dali Temple, Xuan Shijing, was seriously injured and implicated Princess Jinyang. The Jingzhao Yin Mansion has been transferred to Dali Temple in this case. Now all the bodies of the assassins are parked in Dali Temple. I am here to report to Your Majesty the clues found by the coroner."

"speak."

"These assassins are extraordinary. They should be said to have been strictly trained. Everyone has a very poison hidden in their teeth. Moreover, their appearance and figure are not like me, the Tang Dynasty." Dai Zhou said.

When His Majesty Li Er heard this, he narrowed his eyes and felt a poison hidden between his teeth? The assassin probably lost his breath when the living mouth brought back to the mansion by Qing Bird.

"What else is there?" His Majesty Li Er asked.

"I have sent someone to inquire near Xuanwu Lake. No abnormalities have been found in the surrounding people, so there is no way to know when these assassins were ambushed in Xuanwu Lake..."

"Isn't these assassins a man from me, a Tang Dynasty?" His Majesty Li Er thought about it... It's not a Tang Dynasty man...
