Chapter 39: Long Xu's decision
The next day, Gou's ......
The Gou family is no longer majestic, the house is gloomy, and those family members are kneeling in the lobby to pay tribute to Gou Yan and the others.
Long Xu looked at everything with a gloomy face, someone actually killed people in his empire, and the one who killed him was still the left minister, didn't he slap him hard?
As soon as he heard the news that Gou Yan had been killed, Long Xu rushed over as soon as possible, and the second prince beside him followed closely. The Gou family was a bargaining chip for the second prince to compete for the crown prince, and now it was ruined, which made him angry.
He didn't have a good relationship with the other princes, and this time he would definitely be ridiculed by those people, which was a result that he couldn't accept.
"Your Majesty, your subordinates have ascertained that except for him and his second brother, the rest of the people in the Zuo Xiang's family were not poisoned. It seems that this assassination was premeditated......"
"Father, this person is so bold and dares to kill Zuo Xiang in the imperial capital, he must not be let go, otherwise how can we have the face of the Silver Dragon Kingdom, and how should others view us?"
The second prince's words said to Long Xu's heart, it was originally a good thing for Ao Yan to come as an envoy, but now there are many people from other empires, if this matter reaches the ears of those people, I am afraid that his dignity will not be preserved.
"Your Majesty, my husband has always been loyal to the emperor, and his heart and brain are all over the place, please ask the emperor to find out the murderer......"
The person who spoke was Gou Yan's wife, and at this time she was pleading with tears in her eyes, her son was killed, her husband was killed, and she really wanted to cry without tears now.
At this moment, an entourage came to report and said, "Report, the slave found a painting in the place where Lord Zuo Xiang was killed"
"Painting?" Everyone was puzzled, Long Xu took a look, his pupils contracted sharply, and his hands trembled slightly. It's him, it's him, although he can't see all the faces, but the body shape is very familiar to him.
Long Xu frowned, and walked out silently, followed by a group of people.
When he walked to the gate, a trace of determination flashed in Long Xu's eyes, and he quietly made a certain decision, and then returned to the palace, and called the second prince to the study as soon as possible.
"Father, are you looking for a child?"
Looking at his second son, Long Xu flashed a complicated look.
"Yu'er, you know better than me what the Gou family has done in the imperial capital. I know that you have been secretly covering for the Gou family, and I don't blame you. But now, if this news reaches the ears of other empires, it will be a great disadvantage for our empire. If this happened on weekdays, it would have been forgotten, but it happened at such a critical moment, you must know that it is an extremely glorious thing for the Aoyan Empire to send an envoy to our empire, so this matter must not spread to the Aoyan envoy, I mean...... Do you understand?"
Long Ziyu's eyes were cold for a while, and he was silent for a moment and said, "The child doesn't understand, please ask your father to make it clear!" Does he really not understand? No, he knows it very well in his heart, but if Long Xu's decision is made, it will also have a great impact on himself.
"I mean...... Extinguish the mouth. ”
Sure enough, Long Ziyu's heart was cold for a while, and once the courtiers who were loyal to him lost their effect, they were completely abandoned.
What Long Xu meant, even if he didn't say Long Ziyu, he understood that the Gou family might completely disappear in the imperial capital this time. The Gou family will be destroyed when it is destroyed, but this news has long been known to the people in the palace, especially those princes and ministers, once they think that their prince can't even protect the forces that support him, then who will support him?
Although he was unwilling in his heart, Long Ziyu did not dare to disobey his father, and immediately said, "Listen to your father's idea!"
Patience, he must endure. His hole cards have been ruined, and he is now weak, and he must wait for an opportunity......
Long Xu nodded with satisfaction, and said, "I will arrange this matter, I have one more thing to call you here this time, and there is another thing, that is, about the day after tomorrow."
Long Ziyu's eyes flashed, and he didn't reply.
Long Xu didn't care, and said to himself, "There are few of you in the entire emperor who can compare to you, even your eldest brother is slightly weaker than you, this time I hope you can win a place, and then the reputation of our Silver Dragon Kingdom will be greatly enhanced, and then let those small countries bow down to me......"
"But don't take the enemy lightly, as far as I know, a few of the younger generations sent by other empires are not bad, do you understand?"
"Yes, Father, the child understands!" Having said that, the trace of disapproval in his eyes did not show on his face.
"Well, you go out first!Prepare well, don't disappoint me!" Long Xu waved his hand, and Long Ziyu walked out obediently.
It's just that Long Ziyu's originally calm face became very distorted as soon as he went out, and the killing intent in his eyes Ling Ran, if it weren't for the fact that he didn't want to bear the name of killing his father, he would want to slap him to death with one palm.
Looking back at the closed gate, Long Ziyu's face gradually returned to calm, and then an inexplicable smile appeared.
Wait, one day, this throne is my Long Ziyu......
And Long Xu, who was resting in the study, naturally didn't know that his son actually had murderous intentions towards him. At this time, he was holding the scroll, and his expression was complicated.
He naturally recognized that the culprit who killed Gou Yan was Long Zifeng, but in addition to anger, he also had this doubt in his heart.
It stands to reason that his seventh son is a well-known waste, how could he kill Gou Yan in a short period of time, you must know that although Gou Yan's strength is not good, Long Xu knows very well that the Gou family has a good strength to chat.
Could it be that the worship just watched Gou Yan being killed?
He guessed right, the old man was indeed watching Gou Yan being abused by Long Zifeng to half death, and he didn't even dare to let out a fart.
Thinking that his son had become so powerful, for no reason, Long Xu's heart swelled with a thought of regret, if he had been patient and listened to his explanation, the result might not have been like this. If you are decisive, keep him under pressure......
His indecision not only caused him to lose a son himself, but now he also lost an arm.
Long Xu sighed slowly, and said to the empty surroundings, "Compulsory Elder, can I trouble you to do something for me?"
A figure appeared in front of Long Xu, and Long Xu was not surprised, as if he knew who the person in front of him was.
"Your Majesty, please command. What do you need to do with your subordinates?"
A resolute look flashed in Long Xu's eyes, this was the second time he had made a similar decision today.
"Find the right opportunity to ...... him for me Kill it!"
The scroll was held in the hand of the compulsory cultivator, and without too many words, the compulsory cultivator disappeared into the room again, silently.
For Long Xu, what can't be obtained, others don't want to get.
"You don't blame me...... Your presence threatens not only the dignity of the royal family, but also me, and I will not tolerate such an existence, which will make it difficult for me to sleep......"
In the silent room, only Long Xu's voice echoed.
