"I don't know anything about Wang Yuan. As for why he suddenly assassinated me, I can only rely on Dongchang to tell the truth." Zhu Gaosui said neither humble nor arrogant.
Without Mr. Zhang by his side, Zhu Gaosui became extremely cautious. He thought about every word in his heart for a long time before daring to say it out.
As for the purple-robed captain, before leaving, Mr. Zhang specially told himself to be careful with this person. Even one word could make him passive.
Although he did not know the purple-robed captain personally, Lin Shangli asked this person to come out to investigate, and he was willing to be the person behind it. The young man in ordinary school uniform in front of him should be the feared purple-robed captain.
He was thinking this in his heart, but Zhu Gaosui would never say it out loud. It didn't matter who the other party was. If everyone in the East Factory was treated as a purple-clad captain on the spot, there would be no big problems.
"May I ask, Your Highness, did Wang Yuan rush in directly from outside?" Xiao Chen asked calmly.
"No." Zhu Gaosui shook his head, "He said he wanted to meet with me for something. After getting permission, he walked in through the gate openly."
"Jinyiwei, do you have other contacts with His Highness?" Xiao Chen pretended to be startled and asked a little surprised.
"Never. Jin Yiwei is one of the palace guards, how could he have any contact with me. At that time, I thought so too. However, as the only prince with my father during this 'hunt', since he has something to do
How could he be turned away when he asked for an audience? However, I never expected that his purpose was to use my trust to assassinate him. A Qianhu, a member of the Jinyi Guards, will work hard for a few more years and make something.
It is not impossible for him to be promoted to commander with his achievements. To ruin himself like this, to be honest, I am frightened and feel sorry for him even more."
Shaking his head, Zhu Gaosui let out a long sigh.
With this expression, in everyone's eyes, he looks like a good prince who is dedicated to serving the world.
However, to Xiao Chen's ears, these words were full of loopholes.
There is no hatred for no reason in the world, let alone the kind that does not hesitate to take one's own life. And Zhu Gaosui deliberately guided his thoughts in directions that had nothing to do with the case, trying hard to show his generosity and concern for the country.
Zhu Gaosui seems to be smart, but in fact he is completely stupid.
"Your Highness, did Wang Yuan draw his knife and stab him as soon as he entered the living room?" Xiao Chen asked in detail.
"Yes." Zhu Gaosui nodded, and the expression on his face instantly changed to one of great fear, "Without saying a word, he took advantage of the king's unpreparedness and suddenly pulled out the Xiuchun knife from his waist.
Like me, I am here to chop you down. If I hadn’t followed my father in the north-south expeditions and developed some skills in reaching out, I would have been unable to dodge, and blood would have been spilled on the spot."
Having said this, Zhu Gaosui turned pale and looked frightened.
Not to mention anything else, just looking at Zhu Gaosui's appearance, one can imagine how critical the situation was at that time.
"At that time, after hearing the cry, the nearby Huailaiwei soldiers also rushed over and witnessed with their own eyes the scene where Wang Yuan was about to assassinate King Zhao. These soldiers, the subordinates can call them one by one to question them face to face." It has been removed.
Dong Chao, the commander of the Huailai Guard in the helmet, hurriedly followed.
"Shut up." Xiao Chen shouted loudly, which seemed to burst everyone's eardrums. "Are you eager to express the quick response of the Huailai Guard soldiers and shirk the responsibility for your lack of vigilance? When I should ask you, I will naturally
I’m asking you. If I haven’t asked you, don’t interrupt.”
Everyone, including King Zhao Zhu Gaosui, was shocked by Xiao Chen's sudden explosion.
Everyone stared, not knowing what to do.
Lin Shangli understood in his heart that Xiao Chen's shouting was actually aimed at King Zhao.
He indirectly told Zhu Gaosui that when Dongchang handles the case, everyone has no choice but to cooperate.
However, Dong Chao was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with a "pop" sound: "The official talks too much, the official will never dare to speak again."
"The helmet has been taken off, how do you still have the right to call yourself a lower official? The dignified Huailai Guard is the host guard of this 'hunting' event. If something as important as the assassination of the prince happened, you can't escape the blame.
While Dongchang was handling the case, he interrupted at will and slapped his own words." Xiao Chen put his hands behind his back and spoke in a stern tone that left no room for doubt.
From the perspective of outsiders, even if he is just an ordinary captain who is handling a case, it is ridiculous to let a commander slap him in public.
Even if he is reduced to a prisoner, the dignity of the commander cannot be trampled on at will.
But Dong Chao knew in his heart that although this man was wearing the uniform of Dongchang's school captain, he was not an ordinary school captain of Dongchang. He was the former purple-robed school captain who was famous all over the world, the real uncrowned king.
"The guilty minister deserves to die, the guilty minister talks too much." Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Dong Chao lowered his head and muttered softly, raised his right hand, and slapped his mouth hard every time he said a word.
The expression on his face was not the despair that everyone thought he should have, but one of resignation and fear that he did not dare to refute at all.
Even the emperor's son, Zhu Gaoxu, the King of Han, had his right hand chopped off by him. He was just a third-rank imperial guard commander, and having his head chopped off by him was just a thought in his mind.
Dong Chao was both afraid and secretly happy.
Compared with losing one's life, it was just a slap in the face, which is something to be thankful for.
But the guards of King Zhao around them all opened their mouths, as if they couldn't believe what they were seeing.
As the bodyguard of King Zhao, after staying at Huailai Guard, what I saw was Dong Chao's majesty. Even the high officials in the court nodded and greeted the commander Dong Chao.
After all, living here, eating, drinking, and having sex, all rely on the Huailai Guard. The most important thing is that the emperor chose to hold the "hunting" activity in Huailai Guard. The Huailai Guard must also be the emperor's trusted army.
But now, because of one sentence, he knelt on the ground and slapped his mouth. Apart from being surprised, everyone was shocked.
The one who was most shocked was undoubtedly Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui.
After all, he was the prince of the dynasty, the majestic King Zhao. This man loudly scolded Dong Chao in front of him. This was not scolding Dong Chao, but he was clearly scolding himself.
No matter how dissatisfied you are in your heart, you can't turn away in face.
Seeing Dong Chao slap him more than ten times in a row, Zhu Gaosui looked at Xiao Chen: "Actually, Commander Dong just wants to provide some clues for Dongchang's investigation. The starting point is good, but the timing is not right. He slapped him more than a dozen times.
, it’s almost enough to let him have a long memory.”
"For the sake of His Highness interceding for you, I will spare you today. Remember from now on, when Dongchang is handling a case, don't interrupt casually." Xiao Chen's loud voice echoed in the living room.
Lin Shangli nodded, feeling very satisfied.
Xiao Chen, with one move, suppressed King Zhao's momentum. At the same time, he did not forget to raise Dongchang's status a little more.
