Chapter 221: Counting 3

"Lord Taishou's loyalty, let's stay with the criminal department to explain to the king."

At this moment, Wang Taishou was put on his neck with swords by two soldiers, he was stunned at first, but he didn't want to laugh arrogantly.

Yes, there are all the human and material evidence, and he was searched by the general of the dynasty for the missing national seal, but I am afraid that his family, old and young, dozens of people, are all unreasonable.

However, was Emperor Cheng dizzy that day? Thinking that he is the prince who has inherited the country for him, and has worked hard for half his life, if he wants to be a thief of the national seal and an emperor, does he have to wait until today? After all, his eldest son is also a general guarding the border.

"Hahaha, just because the national seal is here with the old man, the general will detain the old minister in the criminal department for trial! Hahaha, the old minister is not convinced! General, you are just a military general, why can you be lawless when you hold the power of the army in your hands?! ”

"Lord Wang, General Ben is still obsessed with seeing that you are in trouble!"

"Humph! If King Tiancheng cures the old man's sin because of the national seal, he can only be blamed for being incompetent and not distinguishing between right and wrong! However, just a little martial artist, you want to condemn the old man, and the old man would rather die than accept it! ”

The Lord Wang said hatefully, this matter is clearly that someone framed him, but he has no evidence now, and there is no way at all. But what kind of place is the criminal department, if he goes at this age, he will probably not be able to come back......

Therefore, he was deadlocked, even if he was put on the neck with a knife, he did not want to go to the punishment department. Perhaps in his opinion, he is also a minister of heaven and a high power. However, he ignored the character and character of the great general.

"Not convinced?" The general strode towards the prince, staring at him with cold eyes, and then he said in a rhetorical way:

"Lord Wang, the private possession of the national seal and other complicity in rebellion, if you feel unconvinced, then please come up with evidence to prove that you are innocent! Otherwise, don't blame my subordinates, I don't know how serious it is, and I hurt your old man! ”

"Take away--"

"How dare you—"

Wang Taishou was furious, and as soon as the words fell, a light suddenly flashed in the room, and several hidden guards killed the two soldiers who captured Wang Taishou in the blink of an eye, and at a very fast speed, raised their swords and attacked the general.

The family members of the Taishou Mansion present were all frightened and screamed.

The general was also stunned, as if he didn't expect that the prince would cultivate such a skilled secret guard in the palace, and dare to launch a counterattack against him after being found to have a private national seal.

The secret guards of the Taishou Mansion are not weak in martial arts, and their surprise attack overwhelmed everyone present.

The general's face sank, and he was about to draw his sword to meet the enemy, but he didn't expect the speed of those secret guards to be so fast, and in the blink of an eye, several sharp cold lights flashed, and they were already stabbing towards his chest.

It seems that he is still a cultivator who is not weak.

The general looked frightened, he didn't expect that the Taishou Mansion would dare to make a move at this time. Seeing those cold long swords, he was about to sink into his chest, and he didn't want a huge sword to suddenly fly out from a tricky angle.

The broad blade immediately flew out of the sharp long swords with lightning speed.

At the same time, a spiritual rune paper flashed, and it exploded with a bang on the bodies of those dark guards.

Wang Taishou's secret guards were hit by that beam of light almost instantly, and they flew out violently.

Everyone present was amazed, because in today's world, only cultivators whose strength was above the Four Heavens Realm could achieve the ability to extract their spiritual power and refine it into rune paper. Therefore, the person who just rescued the general must be a master.

The general also looked back behind him in surprise, but saw a woman in red carrying a huge knife on her shoulder, which looked like a knife, but was actually a sword, and slowly walked in. And in her hand, there was also a large handful of rune paper with a cyan halo.

Wang Taishou looked at the red-clothed girl who walked out slowly, his face was shocked, and the whole person was decadent in an instant, as if he had aged dozens of years in an instant.

This feeling of the coming end made all his struggles collapse in an instant.

Because, the girl in red in front of her was none other than Xia Yu, the daughter of Xihou Mansion in Meizhuang, ten miles away. However, judging from the move she had just made and the cyan spiritual power of the rune paper in her hand, her current strength had at least entered the Fifth Heaven Realm.

Although Wang Taishou is old, his brain is not confused. Thinking of everything that happened just now, he suddenly felt cold, he finally knew that he was being calculated, and the person who calculated himself was none other than Xia Yu, who he told King Tiancheng to take.

Looking at the girl who appeared in front of her, after all, she was a little older, and she had eaten for decades, but it was not enough for this fright.

"It's you—"

Wang Taishou looked at Xia Yu, his mouth kept trembling, and then his body was weak and slowly softened. But before he fell to the ground, he was still unwilling to lean towards the general, and stammered:

"General, the old minister really has no intention of rebelling......" As soon as the words fell, Wang Taishou spit out a mouthful of blood, and he swallowed his breath on the spot.

Xia Yu looked at Wang Taishou who fell to the ground with an innocent face, and then looked at the general, and said very ignorantly:

"Mentor, I don't know him, and mentor, you just saw it, I didn't even touch him, I vomited blood and died."

A pair of watery eyes, blinking. Xia Yu doesn't look innocent, but in fact, in everyone's opinion, she just didn't do anything to that Wang Taishou except for saving the general's life in danger.

"Mentor, ......?" Xia Yu looked at the people present at a loss, all of them looked at themselves like ghosts. Then the great general was heard saying the same to those present:

"The prince kept the national seal privately, knew that he was guilty, and committed suicide on the spot. All the family members of the Taishou Mansion were temporarily escorted to the Criminal Department for investigation, waiting for the king's whereabouts. ”

In a simple sentence, it directly announced the defeat of the entire Taishou Mansion. Although, the general said that he was waiting for the king's fate, but since ancient times, how many of them have a good end for such a big crime as privately possessing the national seal?

"Xia Yu in Xihou Mansion? It's you?! A face that had long been unable to see its original appearance, and Wang Yifan, who was blind in one eye, looked at the girl in red in front of him, as if he had seen a ghost, and couldn't help but tremble. But at this moment, in the face of the summer rain in front of him, he was not only afraid, but also resentful.

After all, the reason why he ended up like this person today is not a person, a ghost or a ghost, all because of Xia Yu.

"What, Taishou Gongzi, do you know me?!"

Standing the dragon slaying sword beside him, Xia Yu frowned slightly and looked at the disfigured Wang Yifan. She said that why was Wang Taishou so bold, and he would admonish in front of King Tiancheng, saying that he would invite herself into the palace to investigate the assassination of the prince.

This has been done for a long time, but it is because she destroyed other people's sons in order to save Shui Lan before, and she seized the opportunity to take revenge on her.

Yes, when there is a chance to clean up the summer rain, then Wang Taishou will naturally not let go of this opportunity. It's just that what he didn't expect was that because of his advice, he lost the entire Taishou Mansion.

"Acquaintance? I don't just know you! Xia Yu, I can't wait to kill you now!! ”

Wang Yifan gritted his teeth and said, and then rushed towards Xia Yu excitedly. However, before he could get close to Xia Yu, the soldiers on the general's side had already captured him and pressed him to the ground.

"Tsk, why do you seem to have a grudge against me? But have I sinned against you? Xia Yu asked innocently in front of everyone. Of course, she knew that Wang Yifan hated herself, but Xia Yu also expected that he didn't dare to be in front of so many people, especially in front of the great general, saying that he was disfigured by Xiao Fengfeng because he molested Shui Lan, a female disciple of Wanling Academy.

However, knowing that something like today would happen, Xia Yu should not have softened his heart in the first place and let Wang Yifan have a chance to live.

"You--"

Sure enough, Wang Yifan glared at her hatefully, daring to be angry but not daring to speak. However, he didn't dare to speak, but it didn't mean that Xia Yu wouldn't add fuel to the fire.

"Mentor...... No, General! Xia Yu went out yesterday, and when he came back, he didn't want to hear about the assassination and injury of the prince, because he didn't know whether it was true or not, Xia Yu wanted to go into the palace to visit. I don't want Edgeworth to pass by, and I see that the Taishou Mansion is so lively. The corners of his mouth hooked coldly, his eyes fell on the national seal in the hands of the general, and then he said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has the sword of the emperor, and he will definitely reign over the world in the future." At present, the situation in the four countries is unstable, and it is inevitable that people will be jealous and hateful, but this missing national seal is now appearing in the Taishou Mansion, can that explain...... The previous injury of King Tiancheng and the assassination of the prince also have something to do with the Taishou Mansion? ”

The general was stunned, and the soldiers present couldn't help but look at each other.

After all, what Xia Yu said makes a lot of sense.

It's just that a small Taishou Mansion shouldn't have that much ability to hurt King Tiancheng and the crown prince. However, this does not deny whether the Taishoufu had an alliance with one of the other three countries and thus rebelled.

Wang Yifan was stunned, and after hearing Xia Yu's words, he was completely stupid. However, it is also true that the national seal was found in their Taishou Mansion. Although he still doesn't know what happened in the middle, they can't escape the blame for what is happening now.

Could it be that the last time the seal of the Tiancheng Palace was stolen, the injury of the King of Tiancheng and the assassination of the crown prince were really related to his father?

But right now, his father has been to death by Xia Yu, and now there is no proof of death, what should they do?

The whole person was depressed, Wang Yifan and those in the Taishou Mansion gave up struggling, and could only be slowly taken out by those who were slowly escorted. But at this moment, Xia Yu stood up and stopped:

"General."

With a completely different face, the general was thinking about the matter in the middle, how to tell the current matter to King Tiancheng, but he didn't want Xia Yuqing's voice to ring in his ears.

The general was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but seriously look at the woman in red with bright eyes in front of him. In front of her, she is no longer the waste that everyone can bully. She even gives a sense of wow at any time.

Moreover, just because she had just saved her life, he couldn't help but have a little more respect when he looked at Xia Yu's eyes. At a young age, not only was he slim and had a summoning sword, but he also went to the demon world to inquire about the emergence of the red star for the people of the world.

Talents like Xia Yu are worthy of everyone's respect and support in the entire Tiancheng.

"What advice does Miss Xia have?"

As a general, he had called her Miss Hou Mansion before, but this time, he was a corporal and called her Miss Xia. His attitude, this is also enough capital for Xia Yu to be proud of.

Xia Yu looked at him and smiled slightly:

"I don't dare to give advice, but the little woman feels that the general really took down all the Taishou Mansion at this time and blamed King Tiancheng, and those forces who colluded with the Taishou Mansion behind his back will definitely not be able to help it. And now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is injured, those hidden forces may not attack him in groups, and kill Tiancheng by surprise! Therefore, for the sake of Tiancheng's great cause of realizing the unification of the four kingdoms, as well as the safety of the people and the crown prince, it is really not appropriate for the general to imprison them in the criminal department."

The general was stunned, and couldn't help but glance at Xia Yu, and was immediately impressed.

Xia Yu, this little girl, is only sixteen years old, not only has her strength improved by leaps and bounds, she has a summoning sword, and she is very skilled, but what is even more rare is that she looks at the problem so calmly and thoroughly.

Yes, the current situation in the four kingdoms is unstable, because the sword of the emperor is in the hands of the prince of Tiancheng, and the other three kingdoms are eyeing each other. The survival of a small Taishou Mansion is nothing, but because of a small loss, let those who can't sit still make trouble at this juncture, it will be worth the loss.

"Then in Miss Xia's opinion, how should this matter be handled?"

"It's easy! The matter of the Taishou Mansion, let your people not leak half a sentence out, and then the general secretly found out that the Taishou King had a private national seal, and he wanted to ascend to the throne without hesitating to harm the prince, and privately reported it to the king. And on the grounds of Lord Wang's critical illness, the other forces of their family will be brought out, and everything will only be until His Royal Highness the Crown Prince recovers his health and regains control of the overall situation of Tiancheng. ”

Xia Yu gently twisted a strand of hair hanging down his shoulders and said.

After hearing this, the general felt that this matter was feasible, after all, on the side of the border pass, this Wang Taishou also had a son with a lot of power. So, he immediately ordered to block the affairs of the entire Taishou Mansion, and warned his soldiers not to leak half a word about today's affairs, and those who violated the military order were dealt with.

Countless soldiers surrounded the Taishou Mansion, and in the eyes of outsiders, this Taishou Mansion is still prominent and wealthy, and it looks no different from the past. But the reality is that the king of the Taishou Mansion has died, and all the family members and subordinates of the mansion have been imprisoned.

"Miss Xia is smart and clever, and her skills are so good. With your ability, you will inevitably get the king's importance in Tiancheng, I don't know if Miss Xia wishes me Tiancheng to realize the unification of the four countries as soon as possible. ”

In front of Xia Yu, the general did not directly ask her why she refused the invitation of King Tiancheng to go to the banquet. But in the eyes of outsiders, Xia Yu's refusal to marry and his refusal to go to the banquet after returning from the Demon Realm are all provocations to the dignity of a country's kings!
