Niu Lu's original respect for Liu Yu was only out of respect for Liu Zhao, the Marquis of Dingguo, but when he saw that Liu Yu captured the assassin on the spot but acted so calmly, his awe of Liu Yu deepened a little.

Liu Yu sat there and sipped tea peacefully, until Ling Hui was invited over after learning that something had happened in the palace.

"Lord Lin, Niu Duwei, what happened in the palace to send this official so solemnly?" At this time, Ling Hui still looked domineering, and when he walked in the door, he didn't salute Liu Yu, so he asked with a slashed face.

Niu Lu had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Ling Hui, he immediately stood up and scolded: "Good old man Ling, you dare to live up to the emperor's grace and send assassins to assassinate Your Majesty, I, Niu Hui, want to strangle you, a rebel!" ”

Because Niu Lu's weapons had been confiscated before the palace, he could only pinch Ling Hui with his bare hands at this time. When Ling Hui heard Niu Lu's accusation, he was shocked in his heart, but at the same time, he didn't understand why Niu Lu would be so conclusive, in the face of Niu Lu's rough martial artist, he could only dodge as a Wenchen.

Liu Yu crossed Erlang's legs and held the teacup, looked at the two people fighting in front of him like watching the play, and said in surprise: "Yo! The two of you, why bother to be so angry, there is something to discuss. ”

Niu Lu was originally indignant, and when he heard Liu Yu's words, he couldn't help but turn around and look at Liu Yu, not understanding why Liu Yu was still talking and laughing so much at this time, he said in his heart, could it be that the assassination was made up of nothing by Liu Yue?

Ling Hui was pinched by Niu Lu and pressed to the ground before, but at this time he had to take it off, still panting in his mouth, tidying up his clothes and saying, "Lord Lin, but there are assassins in the palace?" ”

"Hmm." Liu Yu put down the teacup and nodded.

"Your Majesty is well?"

"The assassin was discovered before the attack was carried out and was able to be stopped in time." Liu Yudao.

Ling Hui said cautiously: "Bold man." Dare to stab under His Majesty in the territory of Dongning Mansion. It seems that there must be someone behind the scenes. I also asked the prince to hand over this person to this official for interrogation and find out who was behind the scenes. ”

Niu Lu snorted and said: "Okay, you old Ling, you are still sloppy with the prince, don't you know that the traitor has confessed that you instructed him to assassinate?" ”

Ling Hui finally knew why Niu Lu was so excited, it turned out that from the beginning when he entered this door, he had already fallen into the trap.

Liu Yu nodded again and said, "The assassin's confession does say that Ling Taishou sent someone to instruct him to do so. ”

Ling Hui said sternly: "This official is absolutely worthy of His Majesty's affairs. Lord Lin, you can't be framed! ”

Liu Yuxin said that this Ling Hui was very smart, and he hadn't seen the assassin yet, so he insisted that Liu Yu was "framed" rather than the assassin "biting", and the difference between the two was very big, which essentially explained what position Ling Hui put Liu Yu in his mind. When something happened, he accused Liu Yu of framing him, which already showed that he had a ghost in his heart.

Liu Yu got up with a smile and said, "Ling Taishou doesn't have to be excited, that assassin is still being interrogated in the palace, and he said that it was Ling Taishou's instructions, and it can't stand scrutiny." How could Ling Taishou do such a rebellious thing in his own realm? Moreover, the Assassin said that Ling Taishou had sent someone to instruct him, which was even more implausible. The king will not take anything that is undocumented and unsubstantiated seriously. ”

Ling Hui's mood calmed down a little, and he saluted: "What Lord Lin said is extremely true. ”

"Although Ling Taishou may not have anything to do with this matter, since the assassin said that you Ling Taishou conspired against him, it is inevitable that others will be suspicious, I am afraid that Ling Taishou will have to rest assured that he will not go out in the mansion in the next few days, and the government affairs of Dongning Mansion will be temporarily handed over to the following for disposal."

Ling Hui was stunned for a moment, and then felt that this matter was not simple. Originally, he had a bad attitude towards Liu Yu, but now Liu Yu encountered an assassin, and there seems to be conclusive evidence, but Liu Yu still let him go and only let him temporarily resign, and he can't guess what the conspiracy is.

"What's the matter, Ling Taishou has an opinion?" Liu Yu saw that Ling Hui was silent, and said with a displeased face.

"This official obeys the order of the prince is ......" Ling Hui knew that it was useless to say anything at this time, so he had to compromise for the time being, and said goodbye and went home first.

Originally, he thought that Liu Yu would send guards or people from the garrison camp to surround the Taishou Mansion and ground him, but he didn't expect Liu Yu to even send a guard with him, as if it was all up to him.

Waiting for Ling Hui to leave, Niu Lu looked at Liu Yu with some surprise and asked, "Lord Wang, you just let him go?" ”

"How else? Undocumented, unsubstantiated, an assassin can be convicted just by a few words of nonsense? No matter how much he Ling Daoqi said, he is also the magistrate of Dongning Mansion, not for the sake of the imperial court, but also for the sake of the stability of the local people, Niu Duwei, what this king said is the truth? ”

Liu Yu's last sentence was obviously with a somewhat aggressive tone, Niu Lu was shocked, could it be that King Lin suspected me?

"The subordinates think...... What the prince said is reasonable. ”

"That's right, you can go back first. His Majesty only stayed in Dongning Mansion for two days, and if the matter could not be ascertained within two days, he would have to ask Niu Duwei to investigate diligently. Come, send off. ”

Niu Lu felt that he had been stuffed with a stick, and his head was mushy, and he didn't understand the purpose of Liu Yu calling him and Ling Hui to come.

If it was really Liu Yu who framed him, it would not be said that something had happened, and Liu Yu would let Ling Hui go so easily. There is only one explanation, the assassin's assassination of the emperor actually happened, and Liu Yu can only temporarily suppress his anger and prepare for a closer investigation before he finds real evidence. And called him Niu Lu to come, just knowing the contradiction between him and Ling Hui, and was ready to use his strength to rely on him to help investigate this matter.

After sending Niu Lu away, Liu Yu was still drinking tea there with peace of mind, Qu Zhu walked in and asked puzzledly: "General, what is going on?" ”

Qu Zhu's implication is that we use a fake assassin to frame Ling Hui, and we still want to let him go like this?

Liu Yue smiled coldly and said, "Old Qu, didn't you notice that Niu Lu was so impulsive just now that he pretended to be it?" ”

"Pretended?" Qu Zhu smiled dumbly, "Isn't Niu Lu having a vendetta with the surname Ling?" Does he need to pretend? ”

"What kind of old grudge, it's just to cover up people's eyes, just say that you are not competent, these things are not yet clear." Liu Yu sighed, "Niu Lu and Ling Hui are at odds with each other, but in fact, they have a tacit understanding behind their backs, as soon as they enter the door, the two of them act in disaster relief, Ling Hui's play is good, but Niu Lu is not good at disguise." ”

Originally, Liu Yu was suspicious of Niu Lu and Ling Hui's suspicions, but when he saw Niu Lu and Ling Hui meeting today, he was excited and rushed up, and he understood that they were simply singing and harmonizing. Niu Lu went up not to pinch Ling Hui, but to tell Ling Hui what was going on, and then he told Ling Hui that it was an assassin who confessed, and he was even more enthusiastic than Liu Yu to let Ling Hui be careful.

Qu Zhu asked, "Then what happens next?" ”

Liu Yu smiled: "What else, since the pits have been dug up, just wait for them to jump, do you really think I just use this little Ling Hui to be angry?" What I want is the string of people behind him, who dare to think crookedly, so that you don't have a head! (To be continued......)
