Chapter 413: Who Shot Whom?

"Hahahaha, Your Majesty really had a foresight, and he was able to think of such a long-term plan to let the tiger return to the mountain, and now, these assassins are afraid that they will not be able to escape at all, and even the old nest will be destroyed by us."

Among the courtiers, several generals couldn't help laughing, and between their words, they were full of admiration for Li Cao.

Wang Anjun's face changed instantly, and a shocked look appeared on his face.

And Cui Yu and other people with five surnames and seven hopes, their expressions instantly changed extremely strange...... It's as if I've heard shocking news!

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty......"

"How?"

Li Cao showed a meaningless look on his face, and said, "Wang Aiqing, could it be that you didn't even give me time to find the assassin's lair, and you were so anxious to let me make an edict against myself?" ”

"This ...... This...... Your Majesty, the strength of the assassin is too high, and it is impossible for us to catch him......"

"Hahahaha, Wang Aiqing's words are false, the old monk is the master of the Brahma Monastery Sanzang, even if the hateful Taoist cultivator is strong, can he still be stronger than the old monk, Your Majesty, why don't you let the old monk help you wait and arrest that guy?"

Sanzang was enthusiastic at this time and took the initiative to ask for help.

It's just that what he said made Wang Anjun's face even more sluggish, and he was shocked: "You...... You are ...... Release ......"

Sanzang smiled slightly and said: "The old monk has been abandoned, you can call the old monk Sanzang now!" ”

Wang Anjun's face instantly became extremely ugly.

stared blankly at this Sanzang......

It turned out to be him!

He actually appeared here, but he didn't even get any news, this ......

He smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, now that the people of Fanbang are waiting for your reception outside, but you go to arrest the assassin, it is inevitable to put the cart before the horse, it is better to do this, first meet with foreign friends, and then I will carefully discuss the matter of capturing the assassin, wouldn't it be better?" ”

"The ministers seconded it!"

"The minister also seconded the ......"

Cui Yu also knelt down and shouted, "Weichen also seconded it." ”

The officials who were already kneeling on the ground also shouted!

"You ...... Don't you want me to catch the assassin? ”

Li Cao's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said lightly: "Could it be, those assassins were actually sent by you, right?" ”

"This ...... This...... His Majesty laughed, how could this be possible. ”

"No...... I suddenly felt that it was possible! ”

As if he had suddenly come to his senses, Li Cao said seriously: "Taking advantage of the fact that I have set up a banquet for all peoples, you have sent assassins to attack, sending a few people to entangle my guards, while others have rushed into the crowd of people and slaughtered them wreakingly. Unless...... If it weren't for this Cheng Gongzi to help, I'm afraid that this banquet of all people would become mourning for all people, and once these people die, everything will be counted on my head, which makes me quite passive! Well, Wang Aiqing, we have always fought with each other, but I think, your five surnames and seven wangs are also deep-rooted nobles in my Tang Dynasty, and nearly seventy percent of my Tang officials are talents from your clan, so you shouldn't do such a dehumane thing in order to hit my reputation among the people, right? ”

"This ...... This ......"

A few drops of cold sweat slowly dripped from Wang Anjun's forehead, and he said with a dry smile: "Slightly ...... Wechen naturally won't be like this! ”

Li Cao smiled and said loudly to the seriously injured or frightened people below: "Folks, you have also heard, Wang Aiqing has promised that the people of their five surnames will not do such a thing that loses their conscience, and I hope it is not them, but we still need evidence in the end, so let's go and arrest the assassins, if it is really not their doing, then I will personally issue an edict to all the villagers, as well as the people of Chang'an City and even the entire Tang Dynasty, admit that I am doing something wrong, and I am willing to apologize to the world, But if Wang Aiqing and the others do not hesitate to sacrifice your lives in order to undermine my reputation, then it is impossible for me to turn a blind eye to them as before! ”

When it comes to the last five words, it is already a powerful word!

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty......"

Cui Yu said eagerly: "Your Majesty, don't be impatient, don't be impatient, let's think about it in the long run......"

Li Cao ignored their words, and said loudly: "Junxian, the exercises you are cultivating are the ice system, go ahead, take the guards to track the traces of that assassin, he must not know that his traces have been exposed, and he will definitely go back to his lair, let's just follow the vine, but ...... But this matter needs a witness, this uncle ......"

"Ah...... Yes...... Decaying ...... No, the grass people are here! ”

An old man who was pointed at was called out!

Someone in the crowd exclaimed, "Old man! ”

"It's Zhao Lao!"

"Zhao Lao...... Does Your Majesty want Zhao Lao to be a witness? ”

"Zhao Lao Wanjia gave birth to a Buddha, but even His Majesty has received him and helped many orphans, if it were him...... I believe it! ”

"Uncle Zhao!"

Li Cao had a smile on his face and said, "I used to follow my father and see you back then...... Since the death of your son, you have treated the entire orphans of Chang'an as your own children, even if you are a beggar and a thief, when you come to you, there is always a bowl of hot rice to eat. ”

"Grass...... Grass Folk ......"

"Uncle, you can call yourself old!"

Li Cao said softly: "This matter is related to my reputation and the innocence of the five surnames and seven wangs, so I need a trustworthy person to testify...... Uncle...... I'm up to you! ”

"Old ...... The old man will definitely tell what he has seen with his own eyes! ”

Looking at the lovely young girl, the high Majesty looked at him pleading like a helpless little girl, and the old man who was called Zhao Lao suddenly burst into tears and choked up: "The old man will definitely tell what he sees in his own mouth, and there will be no lie!" ”

"Then please!"

"The old man is gone!"

Elder Zhao followed Li Junxian's side and said, "General Li, the old man is slow to ......."

Li Junxian smiled and said: "Uncle, we are waiting for you, anyway, we are not afraid of someone to report the news!" ”

As she spoke, she glanced at Wang Anjun coldly, and carefully helped Zhao Lao to walk out.

Li Cao thought for a while, and then said: "Wang Aiqing, I'm afraid that only Zhao Lao is not enough, or among these many people, you can choose a few people to be witnesses at random?" ”

"This ...... No...... No need, Your Majesty, Wechen wants to follow ...... in person."

"No way!"

Li Cao said solemnly: "It's about the innocence between me and the five surnames and Qiwang, and the people here, except for Junxian, no one else can get out of this palace......

Wang Anjun: "......................................................"

It's amazing!

Su Jing was already completely stunned, he was probably the only one who knew everything among the people present, except for Li Cao.

originally thought that it was the five surnames and seven hopes who attacked Li Cao, and wanted to make her prestige suffer a lot and destroy her dependence, but now it seems that in fact, she is making a move on the five surnames and seven hopes!

Is this former sister Cao so powerful?
