In fact, even if Hong Tianren wanted to hear it from the emperor's mouth, he did not believe that Qianhu, the Jin Yiwei, would assassinate King Zhao.
Regardless of whether there was any hatred between the two, even if there was hatred, this place should not be chosen for the assassination at this time.
What's more, Wang Yuan, a member of Qianhu in Jinyi Guards, was split in half from head to toe by his guards.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that not only was this not an assassination, but it was very likely that King Zhao was killing someone to silence him.
However, the majestic King of Zhao can fight with a thousand households, why should he have to make such a big noise and kill people?
There is only one possibility, that is, Wang Yuan should have discovered something that he should not have gotten involved in, and was killed and silenced. Moreover, it was only discovered recently.
That means that King Zhao has an ulterior secret in Huailaiwei!
The emperor must have thought of this, but he just didn't want to admit it.
"Well, since the emperor said so, he must have his own difficulties. I won't ask any questions." Hong Tianren raised his head and looked at Ming Chengzudao.
Today, it can be said that he has tried his best, even risking his life. In the end, the emperor still refused to express his thoughts.
It seemed that Dong Chao, the commander of the Huailai Guard, could not be saved by himself.
After all, Daming is the Emperor's Daming. Whatever the Emperor wants to do, he can do it. He has done his best, and it can be said that he has a clear conscience.
As long as the emperor does not kill Dong Chao, it means there is room for relaxation. Perhaps, all this requires is a little time.
"Don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation after Dongchang investigates this matter." Turning around, Ming Chengzu turned his back to Hong Tianren and said softly.
I don’t know if he doesn’t want to see Hong Tianren, or he feels guilty and can’t face it!
"Your Majesty, you don't have to think too much. Just do everything as you wish. It's getting late, so I'm going to take my leave." With that said, Hong Tianren slowly stood up from the ground.
"Well, go ahead!" Ming Chengzu turned around and nodded to Hong Tianren.
The capital city was shrouded in darkness.
Except for a few inns and pubs that were still open, there were almost no lights on the street.
The captain of Jin Yiwei pushed out the defense line against Dongchang Prison for about two miles.
At the outermost edge of the defense line, a few feet away, stood a military captain in royal robes. He held a torch in his hand, illuminating the surrounding area.
After several days of guarding, there was no disturbance.
Those Jinyiwei Baihu who led the patrol no longer knew where the patrol road had gone. Qianhu had never seen them in the outer areas of this group.
The two captains, who were relatively familiar with each other, moved a step towards each other so that their whispers could be heard.
Standing here like this with nothing going on around me is really boring.
If you talk, time will go by faster.
On a cold day, changing the guard every two hours, it would be too much torment to stand motionless like this.
"That's good. We will be transferred to the East Factory to stand guard. In the past, we only had to stand guard in one shift a day. Now it's better, there will be one guard shift during the day and one guard shift at night." The slightly shorter school captain looked at him with his eyes.
Ahead, he was muttering.
"No, if it were normal, we would have gone to bed by now, and we still have to stand here and suffer." The tall captain also agreed.
"We don't know what the higher ups mean. Just come here and stand guard. Aren't the princes locked up in the Dongchang Prison? Is there any need to mobilize troops like this?" the little captain continued to complain.
"You should keep your voice down, don't let the hundreds of households who are patrolling over hear it. We will do whatever is told above. If we talk too much, we won't feel good. But whether we feel good or bad, we still have to stand here?"
The tall captain hurriedly pointed at the opponent.
"Hey, we, Mr. Baihu, also have a lot of opinions on this operation. Yesterday, he happened to meet another patrolling Baihu here. Listening to their chat, he also felt that it was a bit too much for so many people to guard the Dongchang Prison.
It's a waste of manpower and material resources." said the little captain.
"They said it was them, but they didn't want to hear our dissatisfaction. I guess the people from Qianhu above also had complaints, but they also didn't want the people from Baihu to complain. However, there is nothing.
As mentioned above, someone wants to harm the prince."
"No, I've been standing here for several days. How could anything unexpected happen? Who knows when this stop will last."
"I guess Huailaiwei's hunting activities have ended." The tall captain said smoothly, not knowing where he heard the news.
"So long? Huailaiwei hunting activities require at least a few months. How can we just stand here for a few months? I was still thinking about going back to my hometown while the guard station is not busy." The little captain complained again.
Got up.
"Go back to your hometown? Isn't your hometown in Shandong? There must be something important going back to your hometown so far away?" The tall captain looked around and found no movement, so he started to ask again.
"Hehe." The little captain smiled, and his childish face blushed slightly under the firelight, "My mother said, go back to your hometown and arrange a marriage for me."
"Hahaha." The tall captain stared at the other person's little face and couldn't help but laugh. He was not afraid of disturbing the captain next to him. "Young boy, how old are you this year? Are you planning to find a wife?"
"I didn't, it was my mother who told me to go back for a blind date." The little captain's face became even redder.
This little captain was only fourteen or fifteen years old. His father lost his life in a mission, so he naturally stepped up and became the youngest captain among the Jinyi Guards.
Logically speaking, it is not too early to go on a blind date on the 14th or 5th. However, when everyone said this, the little captain thought it was really too early, and his face suddenly turned red to the root of his neck.
"A blind date is a blind date. Wouldn't it be enough to just find a girl from someone else's family in the guardhouse, and you have to run all the way back?" The tall captain looked at the other party's embarrassed look and couldn't bear to tease him any more, so he changed
a topic.
"In half a month, it will be the anniversary of my father's death. My mother said that she wanted to go back and burn some paper on his grave. There are not many people in my hometown anymore, and she is afraid that my father will be buried alone in his hometown." said the little school captain.
At this point, my eyes are a little red.
"Okay, let's not talk about it. Your father died for the country and died a worthy death. When you go back, tell me that I will also buy some paper money and you can bring it to him. Your father and I have performed many missions together. He is a good man.
." The tall captain seemed to be recalling the past and said softly.
"Yes." After a low voice, the little captain stopped talking.
As a child without a father, it is already a good thing to be able to get military pay from Jinyiwei to supplement the family income.
For other things, do it slowly.
After all, this family still expects to be able to support itself.
