Chapter 1 The prince fights back, takes out the token
Chapter 858 The prince counterattacks and takes out the token
"The White Tiger Commander is actually Jiang Bailin, the leader of the Jiang clan!"
"The identities of the four commanders of the Dragon Guard have always been a secret. No one knows about it. But this Li Hao actually knows it so well. It seems that the third prince has been planning to fight for the throne for a long time, so he is so well prepared."
"The prince actually suffered a big loss in front of the third prince. Not only did he lose a leader of the Dragon Guard, but even the Rong family left Tianlu City."
At this time, many people in the court also guessed the identity of Commander Bai Hu, and they were all shocked.
Qinglong and Xuanwu were even more frightened, wondering if Xie Feng had grasped their identities.
At this time, Lu Yu, who looked gloomy, winked at a middle-aged man below who was wearing the robes of a second-grade general.
Lu Yu had lost face, so he naturally had to fight back. Otherwise, after today, Lu Jin's momentum would inevitably rise, and countless forces would join him.
"My minister Hong Xianze sued the third prince Lu Jin for killing my son Hong Chang in Wanhua Tower.
My son was in Wanhua Tower that day and did not know the identity of the third prince, so he made some offensive remarks, but the crime would not lead to death."
The middle-aged man was Hong Xianze. After he came out of the queue, he knelt on the ground and said angrily: "But the third prince was so ruthless that he killed my son on the spot and then fled."
After Hong Xianze finished speaking, many courtiers were shocked, knowing that Prince Lu Yu's counterattack was coming.
It's hard to say which side can take advantage of what happened today.
"Chen's son is a good friend of Hong Chang and was also in Wanhua Tower that day. He can prove that Hong Chang did not know the identity of the prince at that time!"
"There is an ancient saying that the emperor's violent methods are as guilty as those of the common people.
Although our Luyue Empire does not have such rules, Lu Jin, as a prince, killed the son of a second-rank general in the court in public, which is really an act that shakes the morale of the army and must be severely punished!"
"Even if he does not die, he must be demoted to the position of prince and removed from the royal family. Otherwise, it will be difficult to convince the public!"
"The prince slaughtered the son of the imperial general. If there is no explanation, there will be chaos in the army. Please also ask the prince of the supervising country to kill Lu Jin to stabilize the morale of the army!"
As soon as Hong Xianze finished speaking, several giants came out and spoke impassionedly.
There is even a first-grade general among them, a veteran who has made great contributions to the Luyue Empire.
For a time, many officials attacked Lu Jinqun.
These civil and military officials all have new family members. If the prince can kill them at will, they will definitely be threatened.
Therefore, many courtiers who had not been contacted by Hong Xianze beforehand stood up and spoke out.
"Haha, I was originally going to mention this matter next, but unexpectedly someone complained first!"
Xie Feng sneered, looked at Hong Xianze, and asked, "Is Hong Chang your son?"
"Exactly."
Hong Xianze's complexion changed slightly and he said bravely.
Since Xie Feng entered the Jinluan Palace, he has been suppressing the crown prince Lu Yudu to death. He is only a second-grade general, and it is inevitable to be afraid of Xie Feng.
"Hong Chang not only threatened to kill Lu Jin that day, but also my son and Gu Cang Ning.
The person who killed him was also Gu Cangning, did you know?"
Xie Feng asked.
"I do know, but my son does not know the identities of the third prince and the two core adults, so the crime should not lead to death."
Hong Xianze already had a way to deal with it, and said with a sneer: "I have no intention of pursuing the two core adults. After all, the disciples of the Holy Religion have noble status and can only be dealt with by the Holy Religion.
I only hope that His Highness the Crown Prince and the Empire can seek justice for my son and severely punish the Third Prince."
"As for how the Motian Holy Sect will handle this matter, I don't know, general."
After speaking, Hong Xianze glanced at Cao Zhuwu and others.
Naturally, the Luyue Empire did not dare to take action against Xie Feng, but since the true disciples of the main skyscraper peak were here, as long as these two true disciples gave orders, there would be no problem.
Anyway, after the Motian Holy Sect investigates the case, these two true disciples and the Xuan Dao Party will be responsible for everything.
However, before Cao Zhuwu and Luo Shen could speak, Xie Feng started taunting them.
"So, because Gu Cangning killed Hong Chang, your Hong family sent experts to collude with the Rong family and enter the prince's mansion, hoping to kill Lu Jin and us to avenge Hong Chang?"
Xie Feng asked with a sneer.
"What, how is it possible? How is it possible for our Hong family to assassinate the prince!"
Hong Xianze was shocked, "You want to wrongly accuse our Hong family! You have a vicious heart!"
"It turns out that the Rong family sent clan members to assassinate the third prince but failed. Knowing that something bad was going on, the whole family evacuated Tianlu City!"
"The Rong family has several strong men in the Martial God Realm, and their strength is terrifying. If they are determined to kill Lu Jin and others, how can they fail? I don't think that may be the truth!"
"Yes, what Li Hao said is not logical at all. If the Rong family takes action, why join forces with the Hong family."
Everyone in the court was also extremely shocked. Only then did they realize the reason why the Rong family evacuated Tianlu City.
Many people have also set their sights on Lu Yu, and Rong Ling is the crown prince. The Rong family even stood on Lu Yu's side before Lu Yu succeeded in seizing the throne. They can be said to be die-hard princelings.
As for Rong's move against the third prince Lu Jin, it would be almost impossible without Lu Yu's consent.
It turns out that Lu Yu has something in Lu Jin's hands. No wonder he is so tolerant today and even sacrificed Commander White Tiger.
Lu Yu's face was as dark as water. Although he had expected it, Xie Feng still made him extremely angry when he said this.
"Li Hao, what evidence do you have that the Hong family and the Rong family attacked Lao San's mansion?"
Lu Yu still held on to a glimmer of hope, because when the Rong family evacuated, no news was sent to him.
So when he heard Xie Feng say that the Hong family also participated in the attack on Lu Jin's mansion, he still imagined that maybe Xie Feng just got the Hong family token that the Rong family deliberately left behind, and there might not be evidence of the Rong family.
"This token is the evidence left behind by the warriors who entered Lujin Mansion."
Xie Feng took out a token and held it up to show it to everyone. One side was engraved with the word "Hong", which was exactly the token that elite warriors of the Hong family could hold.
"Li Hao, you are so slanderous. It is clear that after you killed my son Hong Chang, you wanted to get rid of the crime and framed our Hong family!"
"I, Hong Xianze, can guarantee it with the life of my entire clan. If I, the Hong family, do this, I will pay for it with the life of my entire clan!"
Hong Xianze was shaking with anger. Although he hated Xie Feng and Lu Yu deeply, he did not have the courage to mobilize the powerful members of the family to take revenge.
Because this is an absolute crime committed by the Yi people. He is only a second-grade general, how could he have the courage to do so.
Seeing that Hong Xianze was so determined and even dared to bet the whole family, many people showed doubts.
Based on everyone's understanding of Hong Xianze in the DPRK, he indeed did not have such courage.
"So, is it possible that someone deliberately framed your Hong family?"
Xie Feng also showed doubts, "But this token was indeed found from those captured warriors."
"Brother, why don't we release the captured people so that they can be identified.
Those people are all rare martial arts masters. If they are from the Hong family, someone will definitely recognize them."
