Chapter 12: The Grace of Saving Lives

This is a fatal thing, if this matter is known to His Royal Highness the Prince, then he will not want to be in the position of Dali Siqing.

Fortunately, Zhou Yang's voice was very small when he said these words, and only the two of them could hear them.

"Your Highness the Seventh will definitely save me!"

Liu Ke said in an almost pleading voice.

If you can't find this traitor, then your Dali Temple will be abolished in the future.

"Think about it, who has been with you all this time!"

Zhou Yang said lightly, his voice was extremely small, only he and Liu Ke could hear it.

Hearing Zhou Yang's reminder, Liu Ke immediately understood.

His eyes also casually glanced at the deputy who had been following him.

What he does every day, this person is clear, it seems that this person has been secretly reporting to the four princes.

If Zhou Yang hadn't brought them here tonight in the name of entertaining them, I'm afraid that this operation would have been easily mastered by the four princes.

Maybe the four princes will succeed and transport the assassin directly out of the city.

The most important thing in front of us was the Assassin who had just been captured.

This was the biggest fish caught tonight.

After escorting the assassin back to Dali Temple and imprisoning him, Liu Ke went to deal with the affairs of the spies.

Zhou Yang sat leisurely in Liu Ke's duty room in Dali Temple.

Now that the assassin has been caught, the case is considered to have made a major breakthrough, so there is no need to be so anxious.

Let Liu Kexian dispose of the traitors in Dali Temple.

Or half an hour's effort, Liu Ke hurriedly entered the duty room.

Although he looked like he had cleaned up, there were still a few traces of blood on his official robe.

It seems that the traitor suffered a lot before he died.

As soon as he saw Zhou Yang, Liu Ke knelt in front of him with a plop.

"Xiaguan, thank you for the grace of the Seventh Highness for saving your life."

"Such kindness, the lower official is ten lives and ten lifetimes, and it is difficult to repay it, and in the future, if His Royal Highness the Seventh has any orders, the lower officials will definitely do their best."

Liu Ke said this honestly.

Although Zhou Yang only reminded him briefly tonight, it allowed Liu Ke to avoid worrying about his life.

Otherwise, the prince alone will definitely not be able to spare him, and when the time comes, not only will he lose the position of Dali Siqing, but I am afraid that his life will not be saved.

"Okay, you get up, this palace is just a reminder in passing."

Zhou Yang waved his hand lightly.

Liu Ke's performance made him very satisfied, although people like Liu Ke can't get into his eyes, but it is also necessary to carry the next step of idle chess.

After another thousand thanks, Liu Ke stood up with a flattering face.

"Your Highness the Seventh, now that this assassin has been caught, he is not an official, so he will take someone directly to the Four Princes' Mansion to bring the Four Princes as well."

There was a bit of excitement in Liu Ke's words.

Tonight's incident was obviously the fourth prince's instigation, wanting to take advantage of Zhou Yang's banquet to the officials of Dali Temple to secretly send the assassin out of the city.

Now that this matter has been deducted from the head of the fourth prince, it can be said that there is a lot of evidence, and he cannot deny it.

However, Zhou Yang shook his head gently.

"Don't spend that effort, we don't have enough evidence now, and there is no way to take the fourth child."

"How is this possible, the carriage and the coffin all came out of the four princes' mansions, and the most important thing is that the four princes' personal guards are responsible for transporting them."

"With such conclusive evidence, how can the four princes escape from it?"

Liu Ke said in disbelief, he couldn't figure out what the Seventh Highness in front of him was fighting for.

Zhou Yang glanced at Liu Ke with an idiot-like look.

"It's a shame that you're still sitting in the position of the secretary of the Dali Temple, haven't you noticed the words that those guards shouted loudly when they were dying?"

After such a reminder, Liu Ke also reacted, and suddenly there was a depressed expression on his face.

He hadn't taken to heart the words the guards had shouted before they died.

Now it seems that the reason why they see it that way is to send a message to the outside world.

That is, these things tonight have nothing to do with the four princes.

It was all because they had privately accepted other people's money in order to earn extra money, and only then put the assassin in a coffin and shipped it out.

With just those words, all the suspicions of the four princes were directly cleared.

"It's so cunning!"

Liu Ke blew his beard angrily and glared, and said viciously.

Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and came to Zhou Yang's side.

"Your Highness the Seventh, anyway, there are only our people at the city gate tonight."

"As if you didn't hear these words, anyway, the corpses of those guards are still there, and with these corpses and that assassin, you can bring the four princes back to Dali Temple for interrogation."

"As long as you get to Dali Temple, then everything is easy to say!"

Hearing these words, Zhou Yang rolled his eyes fiercely.

I don't know what kind of ability Liu Ke, a fool, relied on to achieve the position of Dali Siqing.

"Only our people? You're thinking too much! ”

"Those few shouted so loudly before they died, could it be that the defenders on the city wall are deaf, and the residents near the city gate."

"With such a big movement, even if the fourth prince doesn't use means at that time, he can find a lot of witnesses casually."

Liu Ke completely wilted.

I thought that I had finally caught the assassin and could involve the four princes, but I didn't expect that in the end, I would be busy in vain.

"Looks like we're only going to get something from the assassin's mouth!"

Zhou Yang seemed to be talking to himself there.

This is also the only way at present, so if the main envoy behind the confession is the fourth prince, this matter will be simple.

However, Liu Ke next to him was a little deflated.

"Your Highness the Seventh, that assassin's mouth is very hard, and according to His Highness's orders, a poison sac was also pulled out of the assassin's mouth."

"They are all ready to die at any time, if His Highness hadn't found out in time, I'm afraid this assassin would have committed suicide......"

Zhou Yang didn't want to listen to Liu Ke's discouraged words, and before Liu Ke finished speaking, he threw him in front of him.

leaned into his ear and whispered something to Liu Ke.

Hearing Zhou Yang's command, Liu Ke's face, which was still a little depressed, suddenly became energetic, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.

It's like hearing something, a clever plan.

"Don't worry, Your Highness the Seventh, the next official will definitely do what His Highness the Seventh said."
