Chapter Forty-Eight: Giving Back to Him in His Way

King Kang pretended to count the number of his guards, then walked to the corpses of the two guards, looked at the deceased's head for a moment, and then came to the front of the dragon, knelt down on one knee, bowed his head, and said: "Your Majesty, these two assassins are not the guards of the courtiers, and the courtiers do not know them. [No pop-up novel network]"

"Oh?" Song Xingtian raised his eyebrows and said sarcastically, "King Kang, since the person rushed out of your guards, how could you not know it?"

"Qi Qi Holy Emperor, the younger brother just counted the number of guards, a total of thirty-two, just right. These two assassins apparently infiltrated the guards of their younger brother in a vain attempt to assassinate the Holy Emperor, and their hearts were really condemnable! His Majesty the Holy Emperor knew that his younger brother was also an innocent victim. King Kang Song Xingyun burst into tears, and seemed to be a mess aggrieved.

The Holy Emperor sneered in his heart, and said in his heart, what are you pretending, how can I not know that these two people are the dead soldiers you sent? But although he understands it in his heart, he can't say that on the surface.

Although Song Xingyun does not have Song Xingguang's military power, he is the number one strategist under Prince Zhong, and he holds the three major secret service divisions, and his power is intertwined. There is no ironclad evidence, and trying to move him will also lead to undesirable consequences.

Song Xingtian waved his hand, and the two golden-feathered knights walked up to Song Xingyun's guards and named them one by one according to the list. According to the Sacred Lion Law, the prince can have his own guards, but there is a certain limit to the number, and the list, portrait and details of the guards must be submitted to the Holy Emperor for review at any time. To put it bluntly, this is an important measure to restrain the armed forces of the prince and protect the imperial power. One of the duties of the Golden Feather Knights is to supervise the prince's guards, so they have detailed lists, materials, and portraits of the guards of each palace. Now they are verifying it according to the information of the guards of King Kang's Mansion. After a little name, the thirty-two guards were really fine, so the two golden-feathered knights came to the two assassins again, checked with the portraits of King Kang's guards, and finally found that the two assassins were indeed not the guards of King Kang's mansion.

The two Golden-Feathered Knights truthfully reported the results of their verification to the Holy Emperor.

Song Xingtian's expression was not the slightest abnormal, but he hummed lightly. In fact, he is like a mirror in his heart, these two assassins must be people from King Kang's mansion, the so-called upper policy, lower countermeasures. If you limit the number of princes' guards, will there really only be so many people around them? Especially a prince like King Kang, who is in collusion with Prince Zhong and has ulterior motives, will not act according to the rules. If the dignified prince travels, if he is not a caring person, who will care that there are two more people in his guard? At the critical moment, these two people can play a role in surprise. And he was able to pick it clean afterwards.

If it weren't for Song Xinghai's quick reaction today, maybe the brocade box would have really been taken away by these two assassins. Whether they destroyed the brocade box at the first time, or flew away with it, it was enough to destroy the game arranged by the Holy Emperor's side.

Thinking of this, His Majesty the Holy Emperor couldn't help but secretly sweat. couldn't help but glance at Song Xinghai, the sixth child, who used to look cowardly and incompetent, actually added a bit of power. Song Xingtian nodded secretly, it seems that his decision to support the sixth child is correct, at the critical moment, the sixth child is definitely a reliable person.

"Forget it, King Kang, since it has been confirmed that the assassin is indeed not your bodyguard, I will naturally not hold you accountable. Song Xingtian waved his hand and motioned for Song Xingyun to get up and speak.

"Your Majesty the Holy Emperor is wise, thank you, Lord Longen. King Kang bowed, and then quickly got up, with a grateful expression.

Song Xinghai was calm on his face, but he was full of emotion in his heart. Only now did he really feel the cruelty of the political struggle, and with his poor political wisdom, he could see that King Jing was killing people and destroying his mouth, and King Kang and those two assassins were absolutely inseparable. But King Jing, who killed people in front of the Holy Emperor, easily got away with it, and King Kang also picked himself up in a situation that seemed unfavorable to him.

Is it because Song Xingtian can't see their tricks? Just kidding, even a political idiot like Song Xinghai can see it, how could the scheming Holy Emperor not see it? The reason why he gave in was not because King Jing and King Kang were well prepared, of course, their countermeasures were almost leakless, and they did play a part of the role, but this was not the fundamental reason for the Holy Emperor's retreat.

The fundamental reason is that the power they control is too large, and it affects the whole body. The Holy Emperor could not afford to take this risk.

At this time, the golden-feathered knight who searched the Yellow Mansion handed over the brocade box to the inner attendant, who forwarded it to the Holy Emperor.

Song Xingtian slowly opened the brocade box, which still contained more than a dozen letters that he had read, and the fire paint seal of the envelope was opened. He pulled out the letters one by one and reviewed them carefully. Everyone's eyes were focused on the Holy Emperor's face, trying to find out the contents of the letter from his expression. The more Song Xingtian looked at it, the tighter his brows wrinkled, Huang Tingxuan's face was blue for a while, purple for a while, and the court clothes on his back were wet with cold sweat.

"It's so unbelievable!" Song Xingtian finally finished reading all the letters in the brocade box, his face was full of anger, he closed the brocade box heavily, waved his hand, and the inner attendant understood his intentions, and shouted loudly: "His Majesty the Holy Emperor has a will, drive back to the court!"

The dragon moved, the music started, the armor of the golden feather knight was distinct, and the Holy Emperor drove back to the court.

A group of civil and military ministers rode horses and sat in sedan chairs, following His Majesty the Holy Emperor's team all the way back to the court. The people along the way avoided one after another, and the streets and alleys were full of discussions, not knowing what major events had happened in the court, and even His Majesty the Holy Emperor had dispatched.

After returning to the Golden Palace, the Holy Emperor sat on the dragon chair and looked down at the civil and military officials. It was not good to have a seizure in front of the minister's mansion just now, but at this moment, when he arrived at the top of the Golden Palace, the Holy Emperor slapped the dragon chair and said angrily: "Huang Tingxuan, I ask you, among the hundreds of civil and military officials above the Golden Palace, is there anyone with a higher official position and greater power than you?"

Huang Tingxuan was already worried in his heart, and when he saw that His Majesty the Holy Emperor was angry, he hurriedly stepped out, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed: "Back to His Majesty the Holy Emperor, Weichen is the head of the five major scholars in the cabinet, and he has the name of the prime minister, but he has the power of the prime minister. In the court, under one person, above ten thousand!"

According to the system of the Holy Lion Empire, the power of the cabinet chief assistant is indeed very large, and he is the executive head of the empire, second only to the head of state, the Holy Emperor. Although the prince and the prince have higher titles, according to the law of the Holy Lion, there is no real power, but the situation in this dynasty is a bit special, the first emperor in order to maintain the balance between the princes, so he gave several princes real power, Prince Zhong, King Jing, King Kang, which are more powerful than the first and auxiliary cabinets, but this is only an exception. According to the system, the first assistant of the cabinet is the second person above the court.

"Very good, you still know your identity!" The Holy Emperor's eyes narrowed, his voice suddenly raised, and he reprimanded: "Since you are already a supreme minister, why are you not satisfied, but you want to have an affair with the prime minister of the Rambis Kingdom, and want to seek my Holy Lion Jiangshan?"

"What?" Huang Tingxuan thought that the situation was very serious, but he didn't expect it to be so serious, colluding with the enemy country and seeking to win the Song family's country, this is a big crime of the Jiu Clan! How could this be? Why did that brocade box appear in his mansion? No need to ask, he already knew what the contents of those letters in the brocade box were, it must be the letters he exchanged with the prime minister of the Rambis Kingdom, this is a forgery, it is definitely a forgery! He had only met Zaire, the prime minister of the Kingdom of Rambis, once, and when the two countries signed an armistice agreement last time, as representatives of their respective countries, and the two of them were still arguing at the time, how could he possibly have a relationship with that damned adversary?

"His Majesty the Holy Emperor is clear, Weichen is wronged!" Huang Tingxuan grabbed the ground with his head and exclaimed: "This brocade box is not a thing in Weichen's mansion, Weichen has never seen it!

"Huang Tingxuan, Huang Tingxuan, you are really a character, in front of everyone's eyes, everyone has obtained stolen goods, and you are still quibbling. You say that someone else planted the blame for you, but who is that person? Do you have any proof? But the evidence I have at hand proves that you have close contacts with the prime minister of the enemy country, and you have discussed the need to cooperate with the outside world to plot against me. There is also a secret decree from King Rambis here, saying that after the plot succeeds, he will grant you the title of Holy Lion Candidate, and take most of the territory of the Holy Lion Empire as your fief, isn't this plot big enough?"

King Kang's face turned green when he heard this, what the Holy Emperor said was exactly the same as the crime he was going to frame Wen Liren, except that the protagonist's name was changed from Wen Liren to Huang Tingxuan.

It's a good trick to use the other way, and to return the poisonous plan of the other body!

They originally wanted to kill His Majesty the Holy Emperor's number one henchman, Wen Liren, in one move, and by the way, clean up the slightly emerging King of Haijun, but they didn't expect the other party to see through the strategy, and even beat it, and blamed Huang Tingxuan with the same strategy. Who is Huang Tingxuan? He is Prince Zhong's most solid ally in the court, the prime minister of a country. If you take this opportunity to eradicate Huang Tingxuan, it will be equivalent to eradicating one of Prince Zhong's most powerful arms, and this loss is not small!

"Your Majesty the Holy Emperor, Wei Chen is wronged! Wei Chen is wronged!" Huang Tingxuan was stupid when he heard His Majesty the Holy Emperor say that, and he said in his heart what kind of holy lion of his uncle, what kind of secret decree of King Rambis, I never even dreamed of such a thing, let alone conspired with others! But he can climb to today's position, his political sensitivity must be top-notch, he knows that his future is completely ruined, no matter how he explains, His Majesty the Holy Emperor will not believe it. Even if he did, he would pretend not to believe. Who asked Huang Shoufu to wear a pair of pants with his nemesis, Prince Zhong?

Therefore, Huang Tingxuan simply didn't defend himself, and he couldn't defend himself if he wanted to, how could he prove that this brocade box was not something in his house? You said that someone else framed it, what about the evidence?

Huang Shoufu only has the share of kowtowing and calling for wrongdoing.
