Chapter 55: Panic Again

"The king orders a thorough investigation into the matter!" Mu Jiu retracted his gaze and said coldly: "You are limited to find out the truth within seven days and give an explanation to this king and the Guogong Mansion, otherwise Master Li will be your fate in the future." ”

As soon as Mu Jiu's words fell, before the soldiers on the ground could respond, Zhou Gonggong, who was waiting beside Mu Tianchen, ran in from outside the Gyeonggi camp in a hurry.

Gonggong Zhou ran in front of Mu Jiu, but before he could speak, he was frightened by the scene in front of him, and his old face turned pale.

However, Gonggong Zhou was the one who served in front of the emperor, but he returned to normal in the blink of an eye, and said to Mu Jiu with a pant: "Nine princes, you really make it easy for the old slave to find." ”

Mu Jiu turned his head and glanced at Gonggong Zhou, but his mind was not on him: "What's wrong?" ”

Father-in-law Zhou gasped twice, and was about to speak when he noticed Li Hao on the ground, his face was startled, and he hurriedly said, "Oops! It's scared to death. ”

After a moment's pause, Gonggong Zhou looked at Mu Jiu again and asked, "Nine Princes, Master Li, what's wrong with him?" ”

Mu Jiu glanced at the corpse on the ground, and said casually: "This king killed it!" ”

When Gonggong Zhou heard this, his complexion changed instantly, "Nine Princes...... How can you kill him? ”

Mu Jiu was quite puzzled by Zhou's father-in-law's words, "What are you doing with this useless scrap?" It's better to kill. ”

"That's true, but the emperor just heard about the assassination of the regent by the assassins, and now he is worried about it!"

Speaking of this, Gonggong Zhou glanced at Mu Jiu with a little grievance in his eyes: "The emperor sent the old slave to find the ninth prince for this matter, and originally this Lord Li was also going to enter the palace with him." ”

Mu Jiu's expression was indifferent, and he didn't take Mu Tianchen's intention to summon Li Hao into the palace: "It's okay, I'll talk to him about the imperial brother." ”

Gonggong Zhou nodded when he heard this, and then he was a lot relieved: "Then the ninth prince will go into the palace with the old slave!" ”

"Hmm." Mu Jiu nodded, but his gaze swept around the many soldiers in the Gyeonggi camp, and only after a moment did he withdraw his gaze and walk out with Gonggong Zhou.

As soon as Mu Jiu left, the soldiers who were kneeling on the ground all breathed a sigh of relief, and one by one their legs and feet fell to the ground weakly, and they were wearing a lot of rough clothes, and their foreheads and even their backs were all wet and clicky, all of which scared Mu Jiu out of cold sweat without exception.

After Mu Jiu left, although they relaxed for a while, it didn't take long for them to remember that Mu Jiu had ordered to solve the case in seven days, and as soon as they thought of this, their hearts that had just relaxed fell into panic again.

……

The Imperial Study.

"What do the two Aiqing think about the assassination of the regent?" Mu Tianchen looked at the folds presented by his subordinates, and asked the people in the hall aloud.

When the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, Wu Jun, and Yin Mo Zhengran of Jingzhao Mansion heard this, they looked at each other, and they were equally at a loss.

After a moment of silence, You Wujun stood up and replied to Mu Tianchen in a loud voice: "Back to the emperor, according to the minister, there are many strange things about the regent being assassinated by the dead soldiers, and the ministers dare not make a conclusion for a while, and this matter has to be investigated in-depth to know the details." ”

"What do you think?" As soon as Wu Jun's words fell, Mu Tianchen asked Yin Mo Zhengran of Jingzhao Mansion.

Mo Zhengran arched his hand, stepped forward and said, "Back to the emperor, the old minister's opinion is the same as that of Master Wu. ”

When Mo Zhengran's words fell, Mu Tianchen put down his hand and raised his eyes to look at the two.
