Chapter 190: Accountability
The fourth prince looked at the third prince with a stunned face, just let this guy continue to live in a dream, he didn't bother to debunk it.
It's good to talk about this matter in private, as long as the third prince really dares to say in front of his father how many assassins he has killed, how brave he is.
Then the four princes are willing to call the three princes the strongest, as long as he dares to say it, his father will definitely be able to smash his head.
This is not a conspiracy in the court, this assassination can be regarded as a small war.
For everything in the war, the father is very strict, and the slightest fraud is not allowed, and the third prince just talks about it in private.
If he really wants to talk nonsense in front of his father, it is lying about his military exploits, and his father will not slap his face swollen.
The fourth prince thought about it, he was fooling the third prince. Anyway, this guy has also calculated this king.
The fourth prince smiled and spoke, "What the third brother said is extremely true. This king can't compare to the third brother. But as for what the third brother said about giving me credit, then forget it. ”
The third prince was just about to say something, but the fourth prince directly interrupted, "The third brother really doesn't have to be like this. As the third brother said, this king didn't even protect his own princess, and it would be a shame to say this. How can it be like the third brother, his princess is with him to protect, if he should say that he wants to ask for credit, it is still the king to ask for credit for the third brother. ”
This flattering remark made the third prince's heart bloom, but he always felt that what the fourth prince said had some sarcasm.
This is what the third prince thinks right, and the fourth prince is secretly mocking this selfish guy.
The expressions of the three princes and princesses next to him at this moment, he couldn't see it. I was about to faint with fear when I saw such a scene. On the other hand, the third prince did not react at all, which doesn't explain everything.
The third prince didn't think about it so much, he just took the words of the fourth prince as true.
At this moment, he was still thinking about whether to agree to the matter of the fourth prince helping him ask for credit.
In the end, he was not bold enough and gave up.
He pretended to kill a lot of assassins, and it was good to talk about this matter secretly, if it was really put on the surface and was found to be fake, it would really be impossible to eat and walk around.
Looking at the four princes, they also understand this truth.
The third prince looked at the fourth prince and waved his hand, revealing a look that you understand.
"Fourth brother, please take credit for this matter, forget it. After all, it was only a matter of killing a few assassins, and there was nothing to be proud of. ”
The fourth prince snickered inwardly, it seems that the third prince is not stupid. If you really ask for merit, the third prince will definitely be unlucky.
"Since the third brother has said so, this king is not reluctant. But the third brother's credit is really big, and it's a pity not to say it. ”
"Low-key, low-key. You know, this king is not a flamboyant person. ”
The third prince waved his hand, signaling that the fourth prince didn't need to say much.
The crown prince and the second prince next to him glanced at each other quietly, you and you are still low-key, and the voice is so loud, I am afraid that I don't want everyone to hear it.
Besides, they all saw the blood marks on the three princes' bodies.
I was a little speechless for a while, if you fake, you should be more serious. Just that piece of bloodstain, you can see something, and no one who has really been on the battlefield will believe that they have experienced battle.
The second prince looked at it and saw that it was fake.
As for why the fourth prince only had a scar on his right arm, although he had some hostility towards the fourth prince, he had to accept it.
The battle of the master is chic, after a battle, the clothes are intact, this is the real master.
Of course, this is also the reason why the fourth prince and princess hugged Luo Ying, if he really had blood stains on his clothes, he would not hold his princess like this.
Although the battle was over, all the dead Assassins were either killed or captured alive.
Even the guy who was called the young master was caught by the Night Walker.
However, Emperor Chu still stood in place, without the meaning of speaking, and his majestic gaze scanned the surroundings.
This made the officials who rushed over a little confused, and they didn't dare to speak, not knowing what Emperor Chu meant at this moment.
At this time, most of the officials were here, but the smell of blood was in the air, which made everyone a little uncomfortable standing here.
Right now
Not far away, a man and horse ran over in a panic, and was about to go to Emperor Chu's side, but was stopped by the royal forest guards.
The leader broke out in a cold sweat and explained to the guards. However, the guards did not buy his account and did not let these people go.
"Let him come!" Emperor Chu's voice sounded.
It reached the ears of the guards over there, and the guards took orders.
However, he was only allowed to go alone, and as for the people he brought behind him, they were stopped by the Royal Guards.
After all, what Emperor Chu said made him pass, and the leader breathed a sigh of relief, but he was also more nervous.
He hurriedly ran to Emperor Chu.
snapped, and knelt down directly.
"The governor of Chencheng Defense, Zuo Feng, came to escort him. The minister is late, and I ask Your Majesty for forgiveness. ”
The person who came was the city guard Zuofeng, and at this moment he knelt directly on the ground, and he didn't dare to gasp.
When the officials not far away saw this state, their faces were all different. But he didn't say anything.
But they all know that Zuo Feng is going to be unlucky.
Emperor Chu's majestic gaze swept coldly across the left seal. This made Zuo Feng shudder, and his body couldn't help but tremble.
"Left seal, left seal. Do you know that the assassins here have long been defeated by the Imperial Forest Guard and many good sons of the Chu State. Why did Bendi stand here for a long time and didn't leave? ”
"Wechen... Ignorance. Zuo Feng said stubbornly.
Emperor Chu laughed angrily, "I don't know." Bendi told you that Bendi just wanted to see the dignified city defense of Chudu, and how long it would take for this kind of thing to happen in Chudu. You're really late enough to come here, the defense of the city is so unbearable, is there still a need for this to exist! ”
As soon as these words came out, the many city guards who were stopped by the royal forest guards also turned pale and fell to their knees one after another.
"Please also ask Your Majesty for forgiveness."
Zuo Feng was also trembling, "Your Majesty, at this time, it is all the fault of Weichen, and it has nothing to do with the city defense." Wechen listened to the rumors of the city defense commander and sent the city defense to the north of the city, so Wechen was late. This matter is all the fault of Wei Chen, and I ask Your Majesty to forgive the city defense. ”
Emperor Chu's eyes froze, "Where is the commander of the city's defense, did he come?" ”
Zuo Feng said with a little weakness, "Just now I sent someone to check on his house, and found that his house was empty. Estimate... It's an escape. ”
Emperor Chu pondered for a moment, "This matter will be handed over to Yexing to investigate." But even if it's true, you can't escape the blame, you will be punished for one year, you will be guilty of meritorious service, if anything goes wrong this year, come and see you!"
When Zuo Feng heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness, the guilty minister will definitely wear the crime and make meritorious service, and he will definitely not make a mistake."
