Lin Ze has been caring about and inquiring about Father Lin these past few days. Even martial arts training can't arouse much interest in him. Every time a young eunuch comes in from outside and hands over a note, Lin Ze is in a hurry.
I was the first to open it and read it, but I became more and more disappointed.
Hu Hai and Huang Banban comforted him when they had free time, telling him not to be too anxious, and told him that for now, no news might be good news.
Wang Li was a little anxious, and several people secretly urged him to take action, telling him that now was the best time to take action. Everyone knew that something had happened to him at home and he was not in good condition. In this case, he missed the shot.
If you hurt a child who is a first-level martial artist, no one will blame him too harshly. At most, you will blame him verbally.
As for Lin Ze's question about how the investigation into Lin's father was going, he was fooled by the fact that he was having trouble finding it and was still searching.
Finally, Lin Ze sneered: "It seems that Lao Lintou is not here. I really have no one to rely on. I can only rely on myself."
Lin Ze asked the young eunuch who was responsible for inquiring about the news about the mansions of Marquis Wucheng, Marquis Zhongxin and Lord Wu'an.
The young eunuch reported to him: "The three palaces initially used part of their forces to investigate for a few days. Later, except for the Zhongxinhou Mansion, which still had some people continuing to search, there was no movement from the other two palaces."
"Why is this so?" Lin Ze murmured.
Lin Ze then found Huang Banban and Hu Hai and told them what Wang Li wanted him to do. Huang Banban was shocked when he heard this, but Hu Hai said angrily: "They dare."
Lin Ze responded calmly: "The battle for the reserve position is so important. How could they not dare? If it weren't for my move, they might have succeeded."
After hearing this, Hu Hai nodded in agreement: Fortunately, you had the foresight. Now their plan must have failed.
Huang Banban next to him was not so optimistic and asked worriedly: "Since they have this idea, they will definitely not give up just because Lin Ze doesn't take action. They will definitely think of other ways to attack Zhang Han and Li Xin. It seems that they must
They just need to stay in Ganquan Palace and not go out."
Lin Ze shook his head: "It's useless. No matter how well we protect Zhang Han and Li Xin, it won't be of much use. The other party can always think of other ways. Besides, if something happens to their family, we can't stop them."
The two of them took the initiative to leave Ganquan Palace, and if they try to stop them forcefully, it will only make them resentful."
After saying that, he glanced at Hu Hai hesitantly: "I have a plan. Taking the initiative can not only resolve this crisis, but also create a gap between Fusu and Wang Li. Master Hu Hai really needs to take some risks."
After hearing this, Hu Hai's eyes lit up and he quickly asked: "What kind of clever plan is it that has such an effect?" Lin Ze lowered his head and muttered a few words next to Hu Hai and Huang Banban. Hu Hai looked excited and Huang Banban looked excited.
He looked overly frightened, as if he was getting to know Lin Ze all over again.
Huang Banban expressed strong opposition to this, thinking that it was too dangerous for Hu Hai, but Hu Hai looked determined. After confirming that the strategy was effective, he decided to implement it immediately, and asked Lin Ze to explain the details to him one by one, and finally kept silent.
Remembered it.
In the darkness, Wang Li walked back and forth, waiting for Lin Ze anxiously. Suddenly, familiar footsteps were heard in the distance. Wang Li couldn't help but let out a breath and complained: "Brother Ze, why are you here so late today?
The assessment date is getting closer and closer, why don’t you take action?”
He saw "Lin Ze" who was wrapped in his robe and said to him quickly: "Brother Li, lend me your dagger." After hearing this, Wang Li took off the dagger and handed it over, confused.
asked: "Why do you want a dagger?".
He saw "Lin Ze" in front of him holding a dagger and drawing it out. The sword light flashed, followed by the sound of fine iron entering his body. Wang Li was stunned by the scene in front of him.
Just listen to "Lin Ze" in front of you shout: "Wang Li, how dare you harm me." As soon as the voice came out, two guards jumped out from behind and quickly rushed to "Lin Ze", one person at a time.
He hugged him and shouted: "Master, Master, are you okay? Call the doctor quickly."
Another person immediately took action and shot Wang Li repeatedly, splitting his muscles and bones, and stopped him on the spot. Huge pain spread all over his body before Wang Li reacted, and shouted in realization: "Young Master Hu Hai" Then he remembered something, and a look on his face
panic.
In Ganquan Palace, the imperial doctor stopped Hu Hai's bleeding and changed his dressing and came out to report to Emperor Qin: "Your Majesty, although Mr. Hu Hai's wound was deep, it did not hurt his internal organs. I have applied bandages to stop the bleeding and he is no longer serious. His current coma is just due to blood loss."
"Yes, I have already prescribed a prescription for nourishing qi and replenishing blood. I will prepare the medicine according to the order and I will be fine after a month and a half of cultivation."
Emperor Qin looked at Hu Hai who was still unconscious, waved his hand to ask him to step back, and then said to Zhao Gao next to him with a livid face: "You are so audacious, even my son dares to attack, Zhao Gao, I order you to hurry up
We will thoroughly investigate this matter and send another imperial guard general to lead two hundred-man teams to guard Ganquan Palace day and night, and notify me when Hu Hai wakes up." After that, he set off back to the palace.
Zhao Gao, who was standing next to him, bowed and saluted "Nuo". After sending Emperor Qin away, he shouted loudly: "Come here, please control everyone in Ganquan Palace and Qiyang Palace and wait for questioning."
The two guards commanders hurriedly clasped their fists and said "promise". Immediately, teams of guards surrounded Ganquan Palace and Qiyang Palace where Fusu was located, and were not allowed to enter or leave.
Lin Ze was also pulled over for questioning, mainly because Wang Li insisted that he was asking to meet, but he didn't expect that it was Hu Hai who came out, and he didn't know why Hu Hai would hurt himself with his dagger.
When Lin Ze arrived at the main hall of Ganquan Palace, Zhao Gao threw other people's confessions on the case and asked, "Is this the son of Lin Dong, the commander of the Imperial Guard, under the stage?"
Lin Ze quickly bowed and saluted and responded: "That's right, young man. I'd like to pay my respects to Lord Zhongshu Ling."
"According to what Wang Li said, he originally made an appointment with you this time, and he suspected that it was you who informed Hu Hai and ultimately framed him. Is this possible?" Zhao Gao asked.
Lin Ze hugged Zhao Gao's fists, and then said: "I do have some friendship with Wang Li. My father and Wang Li's father are sworn brothers. I have met him several times before, but this time I did not receive his message.
I wrote a letter, but I know nothing about this matter. I hope you will find out."
Zhao Gao laughed and suddenly shouted: "Lin Ze, you are so brave. You dare to scheme against the young master, so aren't you afraid of your own death and the annihilation of your clan? If you don't tell all this truthfully, or do you think everyone else is a fool?
?”
Lin Ze broke into a cold sweat when he heard this. After all, they are a group of people with the highest IQ in the world. No matter how flawless they are, they can't hide it from everyone. He then smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, I know this, but I can't say it. Please forgive me."
"Well, I understand. For the sake of your honesty, please go down," Zhao Gao replied lightly. Lin Ze glanced at him in surprise, and then shouted back: "Thank you, sir." After speaking, he calmed down.
Exit the hall slowly.
"Wait a minute," Zhao Gao suddenly stopped him, "but what you did this time was not very good. Apart from offending the Wang family, I didn't see anything else that was beneficial to you, but I don't know what you are doing."
Thought."
Lin Ze stopped and hesitated: "Actually, there is a follow-up, but I don't dare to tell you now. With your wisdom, you can probably guess it."
When Zhao Gao heard this, he thought thoughtfully: "Really? If you can think of this, it is indeed not easy. Okay, let's go down."
Lin Ze then continued to walk out. When he was leaving the door, Zhao Gao suddenly said: "Did you know that when His Majesty first asked, I was the one who strongly advocated keeping you with Young Master Hu Hai. From this point of view,
It didn’t disappoint me too much.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Ze saluted Zhao Gao again, but retreated without saying a word.
When Hu Hai regained consciousness, he immediately screamed for his father and had to be carried to the Yangxin Hall. The guards looked at Zhao Gao for help, but Zhao Gao nodded and followed him to the Yangxin Hall.
.
When Hu Hai and the others arrived, Fusu was already explaining to Emperor Qin in the palace: "Father, I believe that Wang Li will not harm Hu Hai's brother. There may be some misunderstanding. I hope my father will find out clearly."
Hu Hai happened to see this scene when he came in. Thinking of Lin Ze and Huang Banban's instructions, he immediately started wailing: "Father, I almost lost my sight of you. Someone is trying to harm my life. I hope my father will do something for me."
Oh God."
Fusu looked disgusted when he heard this and said, "Brother Hu Hai, no one wants to kill you. You should know the truth yourself."
Hu Hai was stunned when he heard this: "Why did Brother Fusu say this? Just because Wang Li is Brother Fusu's bodyguard, Brother Fusu will stand up for him, but he doesn't even care about his brother's safety?"
?”
After questioning Fusu, he cried to the Qin Emperor: "Please let me make the decision for my son. The son is my father's son. How can the family of the most noble and supreme emperor in the Qin Empire be bullied for nothing?"
Can’t do it?”
But it annoyed Emperor Qin for a while: "Shut up, Zhao Gao, first tell me the results of your investigation. Is there anything fishy about this matter?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Gao walked to the middle and bowed first, then replied: "I have asked all relevant people about this matter. According to Master Hu Hai, he received a secret letter from Wang Li and asked him to come out to discuss some matters in secret.
Unexpectedly, he was almost killed by Wang Li when he arrived. The guards who arrived later rescued him and restrained Wang Li. Wang Li's sword was found at the scene, stained with the blood of Master Hu Hai."
"According to what Wang Li said, he made an appointment with Lin Ze, the guard of Young Master Hu Hai, but unexpectedly it was Young Master Hu Hai who came. Young Master Hu Hai deceived him into getting the sword, injured himself, and then asked the guards to arrest him.
to frame him. Both sides insist on their own opinions."
"Oh, what did the others say?" Emperor Qin asked.
Zhao Gao continued to answer: "I first asked the two guards. According to what they said, the guards secretly discovered that Master Hu Hai secretly left Ganquan Palace in disguise. They wanted to follow him directly, but they were afraid of ruining Master Hu Hai's important event.
, discussed with each other, and arranged for two of them, who were more advanced in martial arts, to be secret guards. Unexpectedly, as soon as we followed them to the place of the incident, I heard Master Hu Hai shouting, 'Wang Li, how dare you harm me',"
"The guards realized that something was wrong, so they rushed to Master Hu Hai. They found that Master Hu Hai had a sword in his belly, and Wang Li was right opposite him. I also asked other guards, and they could prove what the two guards at the scene said.
Correct."
"Then who gave the note to Hu Hai?"
"It is said that he was a young eunuch. When we found him, he had been poisoned and died, but we don't know whether it was suicide or homicide. In addition, I have checked the handwriting on the note, and it is indeed written by Wang Li."
Everyone retreated as instructed, and even Hu Hai was carried out of the hall.
Outside the hall, Hu Hai endured the tingling feeling of flesh and blood growing in his body. He groaned a few times and said to Fusu: "Brother Fusu, does he regard me as a thorn in his side? Didn't he mean that he doesn't want to be with him?"
Do you want to fight? Why did my brother do this cruel thing?"
Fu Su looked disgusted. I believe you. Before this incident, I would have believed what Wang Li and the others said. Now that Wang Li has fallen into trouble, you are still acting hypocritically, but you are not at all.
I didn't want to pay attention to him and watched his performance coldly.
In the palace, Emperor Qin looked at Zhao Gao with a half-smile: "Why, is this the result of your investigation?"
Zhao Gao then smiled and returned the greeting: "Your Majesty, it is clear that those are all appearances. Huang Jing of the Dahuang Gate of Ganquan Palace, the son of Hu Hai, is one of my godsons. I took him out alone, and after some intimidation, I made it clear.
.”
"It turned out that Wang Li's guard Lin Ze who coerced and lured Young Master Hu Hai secretly eliminated one of the other two first-grade guards to ensure victory in the assessment. However, in turn, Young Master Hu Hai and others plotted against Wang Li and used self-mutilation to kill Wang Li.
Pulling them down will always dampen their arrogance."
"Oh, killing a thousand enemies and damaging yourself by eight hundred is not too clever. It was one of them who suggested it, but Hu Hai is determined and dares to kill himself. His performance is remarkable."
"The strategy was exactly what Lin Ze had in mind. It can be seen that he was forced to the extreme. I heard that they had a back-up plan to expand the effect, but I didn't ask in detail. I only wanted to see what your Majesty's intentions were."
"That's strange. Don't you have a great-nephew who is also a guard beside Fusu? Why don't you expose them directly?"
"I will always stand by Your Majesty's side. His Majesty's will is my direction, so it all depends on His Majesty's judgment."
Emperor Qin nodded with a smile and scolded: "You old guy is very cunning. Let them come in and see what they say next."
