Chapter 88
General Lin felt Chenxi's anger, and hurriedly looked at the latter and explained, "Your Royal Highness the princess is angry, Gonggong Cao and I have indeed come to arrest the important culprit on the order of the emperor, and this person is the murderer who poisoned King Han."
"What, the murderer who poisoned the emperor's brother" Chenxi's face was full of confusion "What nonsense are you talking about, how could the murderer who poisoned King Han appear in King En's Mansion, are you sure it's not a mistake" Chenxi said angrily, he was sprinkling the anger that had been suppressed for a day on Cao Zhang and General Lin, and more importantly, she felt that there could be no important criminals in the court in King En's Mansion at all, let alone a murderer who assassinated King Han
General Lin was embarrassed and was about to explain something, but the old eunuch's yin and yang strange voice sounded outside the Enwang Mansion, "Princess Chenxi, we came to arrest the key criminals by the emperor's will, as a princess, do you want to resist the decree" Cao Zhang's words are not good, Chenxi is not the king of En, he will not give the latter too much face, otherwise he would not dare to make things difficult for Chenxi so much when he was in the tiger prison, not to mention that he came to take people at the emperor's behest this time, and it can be said that he acted reasonably and legally under orders
There was anger burning in Chenxi's eyes, she looked at the latter and responded coldly, "My imperial brother's bones are not cold, I will never allow anyone to disturb him, and this is King En's mansion, no one dares to spread wild in this place, you lead troops to surround King En's mansion, do you really think that King Enwang is easy to provoke" Chenxi scolded sharply, and also did not give Cao Zhang any good face, she had long seen that this old eunuch was not pleasing to the eye, coupled with the frequent accidents today, Chenxi's mood had already been extremely irritable, where could she endure Cao Zhang's arrogance
General Lin frowned, he could feel Chenxi's violent temperament today, after all, he had just experienced the pain of losing his brother, he could understand the princess's mood at the moment, but after all, he came to get people on the order of the emperor, if this trip was in vain, how would he explain to the emperor when he went back, thinking of this, he looked at Chenxi and asked cautiously
"Princess, then how can we let us in, after all, we are also under the will of the emperor, if we can't arrest the assassin, it's not easy for my subordinates to go back, or princess, you can make it convenient for us to go in, and your subordinates promise to find the assassin and leave immediately, and will never disturb His Royal Highness King Han" General Lin said in a humble tone, looked at Chenxi and politely asked, he is the commander of the forbidden army guarding the palace, and his duty is to protect the royal family, so in his opinion, the princess is the princess, He would never be as rude as Cao Zhang
Chenxi was expressionless, looked at the latter and replied coldly, "I repeat, there are no important criminals in the Enwang Mansion, let alone assassins who poisoned King Han."
Cao Zhang sneered, looked at Chenxi Yin Yang and said strangely, "Princess Chenxi, I think you have the intention to shield that assassin, I can see that your relationship is extraordinary as early as when the Tiger Prison is closed, but after all, he is a wanted criminal in the imperial court, or the murderer of your brother, the old slave still hopes that you can focus on the overall situation and hand over this person."
"What, you mean Ling Cang", Chenxi's face was full of surprise, and she couldn't believe her ears
Cao Zhang's face was full of disdain, and he looked at Chenxi and said in a weird manner, "Otherwise, Princess Chenxi, you and King En's have been deceived by that person, he deliberately approached you just to use you to enter the prison, and then assassinate King Han, he is a wanted criminal in the imperial court, you won't think that he really likes you, right" Cao Zhang's tone was contemptuous, and his words were full of cynicism
"Shut up, Cao Zhang, if you dare to slander Ling Cang again, be careful that I cut your tongue" Chenxi was completely furious, Cao Zhang was disrespectful to her, she endured it, but if someone slandered her sweetheart, she would never agree
Seeing Chenxi's anger, General Lin hurriedly stood up and explained, "Her Royal Highness the princess is angry, what Gonggong Cao said is true, his subordinates have an impression of this person, the last time King En ordered me to save him in the hands of the masked man, but princess, do you know who that person is, he is the son of the thief and the thief, and he has a common enmity with the royal family, he must have ulterior motives for approaching you and King En."
"What are you talking about" Chenxi's face was full of surprise, "You said that he is the son of the general of Zhenxi, Win Wuxian" She couldn't believe her ears and looked at the latter in surprise
General Lin replied, "That's right, the emperor has already verified it clearly, we came here on the order of the emperor to arrest the important criminal wanted by the imperial court for 16 years, and he is also the murderer who poisoned King Han."
Chenxi was still immersed in shock, and felt incredible about what was happening in front of him, but if you think about it carefully, everything on Ling Cang's body coincides with what General Lin said, he was born in the Tiger Prison Pass, and his family was forced to run away when he was young, and he was kicked out of the Tiger Prison by his father Not long after his father suffered a change, his original mansion also disappeared into the Tiger Prison Pass, and Ling Cang's life experience was also covered with layers of fog, and that time when he worshiped at Valhalla, Ling Cang's eyes were empty, and his face showed sadness that he had never felt before, If he really has nothing to do with Win Wuxian, how can he behave so abnormally, is he really Ying Wuxian's son
Chenxi was still thinking about it, and the old eunuch's extremely soft voice sounded in her ears again, "How is it, Princess Chenxi, now you should believe what I said, this person is the son of the great thief and the culprit who poisoned King Han, do you still want to protect such a person" Cao Zhang's yin and yang said strangely, his tone was a little impatient, he didn't have much patience with Chenxi
Chenxi's emotions were a little out of control, she shook her head again and again, "No, this is impossible, even if he is the son of Win Wuxian, Win Wuxian is Win Wuxian, he is him, not to mention that he and King Han don't know each other at all, why poison him"
Cao Zhang sneered, looked at Chenxi and said angrily, "Princess, don't be naïve, the emperor killed his father back then, and ordered someone to behead the whole house of the winning mansion, he has a common enmity with the royal family, he approached you just to poison King Han to avenge the destruction of the winner 16 years ago."
"That's impossible, he doesn't know anything about the past, he doesn't know his life experience at all, how can he take revenge" Chenxi said fiercely, regardless of whether Ling Cang was the son of Win Wuxian or not, but he never believed that he would be the murderer who poisoned King Han
Cao Zhang had lost his patience, and he sneered at Chenxi, "Then how do you know that he is not lying to you, the winner is a wolf, and the winner is ambitious, and Win Wuxian colluded with Xirong to plot a rebellion, what else can his son do" Cao Zhang's words were sharp, and after speaking, he stopped talking nonsense, and ordered in a deep voice to the Imperial Forest Army behind him, "Rush into King En's Mansion and capture Win Wuxian's son alive"
Chenxi was still thinking about it, she didn't expect Cao Zhang to dare to directly order someone to rush into King En's mansion, "Who dare" Chenxi's eyes were cold, and he reprimanded the Imperial Forest Army in a deep voice, "Those who trespass on King En's mansion are guilty of capital crimes", Chenxi's words fell, and dozens of government soldiers behind him also immediately stood up and drew their swords against the Royal Forest Army
Chenxi looked at Cao Zhang, and asked in a deep voice, "Cao Zhang, aren't you really afraid of King En?"
The old eunuch frowned, looked at Chenxi and said helplessly, "Princess Chenxi, do you really want to stop us and disobey the emperor, do you know that if you do this, you will not only harm yourself, but also harm King En."
Chenxi didn't say anything, just looked coldly at the group of royal forest soldiers in front of her, and she didn't know where the impulse came from, she didn't want Cao Zhang to step into King En's mansion today no matter what
Seeing that the scene intensified for a while, General Lin hurriedly stood up to reconcile, he first ordered the Imperial Forest Army to put away his weapons, and then looked at Chenxi and said respectfully, "Your Royal Highness Princess, you still don't embarrass us, the emperor ordered us to come here to get people, we must enter the Enwang Mansion today."
Chenxi didn't say anything, just stood coldly, didn't speak or let go
"Imperial Forest Army, rush in for me" Cao Zhang no longer endured, looked at the Royal Forest Army behind him and ordered in a deep voice, and the Royal Forest Army in the front row stepped forward, preparing to forcibly enter King En's Mansion
"I'll see who dares," Dawn scolded
"Stop, what are you doing" Seeing that the scene was out of control, General Lin hurriedly stood up to stop it, he couldn't make a move on Chenxi and the soldiers of Enwang's Mansion no matter what, but ...... He also had to complete the things that the emperor had explained, but Princess Chenxi stopped him for no reason, and he fell into a dilemma for a while
Just when the two sides were at a stalemate, a person in the distance hurriedly ran over, and the person who came straight to Cao Zhang's side, hugged his fist at Cao Zhang, and said, "Father-in-law Cao, don't go in, the person you let us stare at has already run away, and he left Chang'an last night" This person is the eunuch who Cao Zhang ordered to monitor Lingcang before, and he has been guarding near King En's Mansion, and when he saw Cao Zhang's Royal Forest Army coming to leave, he rushed over to report the situation
"What, the thief ran away", Cao Zhang was shocked when he heard this, and randomly looked at the latter and reprimanded in a deep voice, "Then what are you doing to eat, didn't I let you keep an eye on him, why don't you stop it when you know that people are going to run away?"
Seeing that Cao Zhang was angry, he hurriedly explained, "Gong Cao is angry, we have been staring at him, you ordered not to startle the snake before, so we didn't dare to start rashly, yesterday I saw him turn out of the Enwang Mansion and left Chang'an, our people followed, I stayed here to report to you, our people left a code on the road, I know his whereabouts" The little eunuch explained in a panic, for fear that Cao Zhang would blame
Cao Zhang snorted coldly, and reprimanded in an extremely feminine voice, "A group of waste, don't you know how to report earlier", the little eunuch lowered his head and didn't dare to speak
Cao Zhang thought for a moment, and instructed the eunuch under him, "Inform our people, do it immediately, we must arrest this person back to Chang'an, remember, to live"
The eunuch answered, and hurried to prepare
General Lin looked at Cao Zhang with a surprised face and asked, "Father-in-law Cao, is this ...... What's going on."
Cao Zhang didn't answer, just looked at the latter and said in a deep voice, "No need to go in, the thief has already left Chang'an, let's hurry back and report to the emperor."
"What, the people have already run away" General Lin was shocked and hurriedly gathered his troops to prepare to return to the palace
Chenxi's eyes were cold, and he looked at Cao Zhang and scolded angrily, "Cao Zhang, you are so bold, you dare to send someone to spy on King En's Mansion."
Facing Chenxi's questioning, Cao Zhang was disdainful, just looked at the latter and said coldly, "The princess atoned for her sins, I just sent someone to monitor the winner's remnants," and then turned around and left the Enwang Mansion without looking back
Chenxi stood alone in place, her expression was numb, her eyes were blank, looking at the gray sky, Chenxi Nannan said to herself, "Ling Cang, are you really the son of Win Wuxian" A trace of pain flashed in Chenxi's eyes, and her expression became painful and hideous, "If that's the case, then we are enemies who don't share the sky, we ...... How can we stay together for a lifetime" Chenxi muttered to herself, as if she was dreaming of Yi, and unconsciously, sadness slipped in her eyes
