Everyone in the palace didn't expect that at this moment, the emperor actually talked to Xiao Lingwei with a pleasant face, as if he had forgotten that the assassination was being tried.

Everyone was dumbfounded, especially the third prince and the fifth prince, who were greatly surprised in their hearts.

Xiao Lingwei didn't forget her business, she said: "Your Majesty, these black-clothed people pretended to be the guards of the Yang Mansion to assassinate His Majesty, their hearts are condemnable, but the people who planned all this behind the scenes are even more hateful.

"Your Majesty, these men in black belong to a killer organization called the Mingyang Sect."

"Mingyang Sect?"

The emperor pondered the name, and did not ignore the panic in the eyes of the man in black, it seemed that what Xiao Lingwei said was true.

Master Tang continued: "It is explained that the Yang Sect was originally a robber in the southwest, but later I don't know who co-opted them, and from then on, they no longer blatantly burned and looted, but changed to assassination.

"As long as you can afford it, they will do anything for you.

"It's just that these people should be in the southwest, when did they come to the capital?"

At this time, Lu Mian said: "Recently, Long Wujun did find some strangers in the suburbs of Beijing, their whereabouts were secretive, and when they wanted to investigate deeply, they fled again. ”

Xiao Lingwei said: "Your Majesty, since my grandfather was imprisoned, my mother has been unable to sleep and eat, and she is very worried, so she sent my eldest brother to investigate the origin of this group of men in black.

"The emperor has paid off, my eldest brother has finally found their traces and found one of their strongholds."

"Oh~" The emperor showed an interested look in his eyes and asked, "Where is it?" ”

Xiao Lingwei said an address.

The next moment, the man in black on the ground shouted, "No, you are talking nonsense. ”

Everyone's faces changed, and they all showed surprised expressions.

Xiao Ling said with slight joy: "Your Majesty, he is not recruiting himself, he is a member of the Mingyang Sect." ”

The man in black lowered his head, and the remorse in his eyes still made the emperor look right.

The emperor immediately ordered: "Lu Mian, you take someone to this address." ”

"Yes."

Lu Mian left, and the man in black fell to the ground in a dejected manner, the wounds on his body were torn, and blood flowed out, exuding a rotting fishy smell.

Perhaps the doubts in his heart had dissipated, and the emperor was in a relaxed mood at this moment, and when he saw that Xiao Lingwei was also getting more and more fond of it, he chatted with her.

I asked questions such as "I have read those books", "What have I learned from Mr. Pei", "What do you do on weekdays".

When they heard Mr. Pei's name, the courtiers in the palace were shocked again, it turned out that this was the closed disciple that Mr. Pei had received.

The next moment, their eyes when they looked at Xiao Lingwei became hot, and some people even secretly calculated in their hearts that although they were a little younger, it was good to decide to be a daughter-in-law first.

Xiao Ling didn't notice the eyes of the courtiers, but the emperor did, and glanced at them fiercely with cold eyes.

The Son of Heaven was angry, and everyone hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to look at it again, but the thoughts in their hearts changed again.

What does this mean, Your Majesty?

Could it be that you want to match Xiao Ling to which prince?

In terms of age, the equivalent of the princes should be the seventh prince and the eighth prince.

I heard that the eighth prince and Xiao Lingwei are still cousins and brothers, probably because they want to kiss each other.

The emperor above and Xiao Ling had a good conversation, and the courtiers below were thinking about it one by one, but the eyes of the two princes invariably looked at the assassin on the ground.

At this time, Wu Sikong came back first.

"Your Majesty, the minister has already verified that the corpse is indeed a guard of the Yang Mansion, and this token is also his token.

"As for the cause of his death, I'm afraid it will take some time to investigate."

The emperor waved his hand: "No need to investigate. ”

He looked at the assassin again: "Say, who instructed you to assassinate General Yang and blame him?"

"Or should I say who made a deal with your Mingyang Sect and assassinated me?

"How many other accomplices do you have, and where are they?

"As long as you confess, I will leave you a whole corpse."

The assassin squirmed his feet, trying to straighten his body, but his whole body was in severe pain, and he had no strength, so he had to give up and said weakly: "I... I..."

"What did he say?" The Emperor looked at Wu Sikong.

Wu Sikong hurriedly leaned over and listened carefully, only to see the black-clothed man's two dry mouths flipping up and down, he was saying, "Three... Emperor... Son..."

"The Third Prince?" Wu Sikong was shocked.

Not only him, but everyone else also showed incredible expressions, and they all set their eyes on the three princes.

The third prince was uncomfortable under everyone's gaze, and pointed at the assassin angrily: "You are talking nonsense, I don't know you at all, don't try to slander me." ”

Wu Sikong saw that the assassin was having difficulty speaking, so he asked, "I'll ask you one last time, if yes, you will nod, if not, you will shake your head." ”

The hall fell silent, and he looked with bated breath at the Assassins, even the Emperor.

Wu Sikong asked: "You just said that the third prince made a deal with the Mingyang Sect, instructed you to assassinate His Majesty, and blamed General Yang, right?" ”

Countless eyes rang out, and the assassin nodded slowly, as if he hadn't seen it.

Suddenly, there was an uproar in the court.

It is estimated that no one expected that there would be such a big change in the circumstances of the case.

And the emperor's gaze at the third prince at this moment was extremely cold and unfamiliar, as if this was the first time he knew his own son.

When the third prince touched the emperor's gaze, he was horrified, and immediately knelt down, took a few steps on his knees, and shouted: "Father, you can't believe his words."

"He is a treacherous and cunning assassin, he has slandered General Yang before, and now he slanders his sons, but he just wants to pull two more backs.

"My father doesn't know, this may be the true intention of the murderer behind the scenes, that is, he wants to put his son to death.

"Father..."

The Emperor shouted: "Shut up. ”

The third prince closed his mouth and kowtowed heavily to show that he had been wronged.

Xiao Ling's eyes widened slightly, her mouth opened slightly, she was in great shock, and she hadn't shaken her senses yet.

Did the three princes really do it?

She remembered that she overheard Yang Gang and Feng Wu's words, and the third prince may have vented his anger because he couldn't win over his grandfather, so he did this.

This is not unreasonable, but is the third prince really so stupid?

She looked at the three princes who were prostrate on the ground.

The fifth prince quietly glanced at the emperor's face, and suddenly knelt down and said, "Father, this matter is strange, and the truth is not clear, so it is not appropriate to draw conclusions too early.

"Erchen believes that the third emperor brother is in awe of his father, and will never do such a rebellious thing."

These words sounded like they were pleading for the third prince, but after hearing it, they always felt weird, and Xiao Lingwei looked at the fifth prince again.

The Emperor did not speak, as if thinking about the matter.

In the face of sudden changes, the ministers in the palace did not dare to speak easily, for fear of disaster coming out of their mouths, and even more afraid of being angered by the emperor.

As a result, the hall became extremely quiet for a moment, and Xiao Lingwei could clearly hear the sound of their restrained breathing and their hearts beating faster...
