Um?

Everyone who heard this sentence thought there was something wrong with their ears. Five seconds later, Linghu Suting asked half-believingly: "Do you want to go to the Heavenly Prison?"

"Wrong!" Chen Lang smiled slightly: "To be honest, I can't raise any interest in Xu Guotian Prison, but if Xu Guo's army must take people away from the Prince's Mansion tonight, there will be no way."

"Why did your highness say this?" Linghu Suting sat upright on the back of the horse. Although he was respectful, he did not have the intention of dismounting and talking with Chen Langping and discussing well.

Chen Lang took a breath, turned his head to look at Yu Mufei, and other maids and servants of the Prince's Mansion. At this moment, the chef Sun Min was so scared that she was trembling, and the maid Cai'er even held Yu Mufei's sleeves tightly with her hands, her eyes roaring.

It is obvious that if everyone is arrested and thrown into the heavenly prison tonight, they will inevitably suffer from flesh and blood. Under all kinds of torture and interrogation, they may be beaten up.

Are you not afraid of your shadow slanting if you are upright?

Cut ~

That is just a wishful comfort for scholars. If they are tortured to death, how many people can insist on their own innocence and Chen Lang’s innocence?

What's more, there is a huge secret hidden in the Prince's Mansion, the secret about Chen Lang's true identity.

"Catch people!"

Linghu Suting raised the whip and shouted coldly.

"Who dares?" Chen Lang opened his hands left and right to protect Yu Mufei and others. Then he said with a firm word: "I will repeat it again. If you want to catch me, please catch me Chen Lang, and all the others will be left in the prince's mansion."

This bastard!

Linghu Suting's teeth were chewing, and he wanted to take the lead in carrying out the mission. However, Linghu Suting was appointed as the Minister of War. He had long known how to weigh risks and interests. If he took action rashly, he might cause serious political events and would not be able to take it.

Seeing that Linghu Suting did not speak or take action, Chen Lang thought there was still room for maneuver. He tentatively said: "I know very well in my heart why Xu Guo arrested people tonight. I can guarantee 100% that the fire in Zhaixing Tower has nothing to do with me, and assassination of Emperor Xu also has nothing to do with me. Everything is just a frame-up for the assassin before his death."

Upon hearing this, Linghu Suting shook his head slowly: "How can I believe you just by saying a few words? I don't understand these anyway. If your Highness wants to explain, please go to the emperor to explain."

"Yes!" Chen Lang was determined, "So I am willing to go back with you to prove my innocence. But this matter has nothing to do with the rest of the Prince's Mansion. It is not good for anyone to make too much noise. I hope the general will consider it carefully."

Threat me?

Linghu Suting noticed a sharp aura. The current situation seemed to be more difficult. Linghu Suting did not dare to take action. He leaned back and explained to the deputy general. After hearing this, the deputy general nodded vigorously, and then rode his horse.

"Everyone will go back to the house to rest." Chen Lang took the lead in entering the yard.

He guessed that Linghu Suting was unsure of his mind, so he arranged for the deputy general to go back and report to Emperor Xu in order to make a decision. This would take time to go back and forth, so there was no need to wait outside.

Hearing Chen Lang's words just now, Linghu Suting responded to tit: "Everyone obeys the order and keep a close eye on the Prince's Mansion of Liang. Even a moth cannot be let go!"

"Yes!" The Imperial Guards answered in unison, their voices powerful and seemed to be intimidating Chen Lang.

...

Huaining inner city, Zhongcheng government office.

After experiencing the fire in Zhaixing Tower and the sudden assassination, Xu Huang became more and more scared now. However, Xu Huang deserves to be a hero. After escaping, he quickly settled his family, ordered the criminals to be arrested, and strictly investigated the identity of the assassin.

Emperor Xu knew that he couldn't sleep all night tonight, so he did not return to the palace, but came to Zhongcheng Government Office and personally took charge, vowing to find out the truth about the fire and assassination in the shortest time.

Zhongcheng Prefecture Yai is the highest local institution in Huaining, one level higher than Nancheng Prefecture Yai, so Zhongcheng Order Tang Quan, is one level higher than Nancheng Order Teng Qing, and is a third-rank civil servant.

Assassinating Xu Huang, and the Zhaixing Tower fire broke out. This happened during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Officials from Huaining City, all the officials of all sizes, should not sleep tonight. At this moment, Teng Qing led his men to knock on the doors from door to door in the jurisdiction of the Nancheng Prefecture. The order he received was that he would rather catch the wrong one than let go.

Tang Quan was still in Zhongcheng Prefecture. As Xu Guo’s most famous investigator, Tang Quan was facing Xu Huang, sorting out and inferring all the clues currently known.

The focus is Chen Lang, the prince of Liang State.

The Minister of Personnel Ou Jian was also in the lobby of Zhongcheng Government Office. When the fire broke out on Zhaixing Tower, he led a team to put out the fire. As a result, his hair and eyebrows were burned a lot, and his sleeves and trouser legs were burned to incompleteness.

Others advised Ou Jian to go home and change his clothes first, but Ou Jian refused to say anything. He wanted to continue wearing this outfit and shook it in front of Emperor Xu, reminding Emperor Xu not to forget his achievements.

He deliberately shook his sleeves and said with a serious expression: "Since you are sure that you would rather catch the wrong than let go, then you should treat the Prince of Liang equally."

"Yes, the assassins have already proved the Prince of Liang in person. With this alone, he is the biggest suspect and must be listed as a key target." Lu Xuan expressed anger.

"The Prince of Liang is definitely the most worth following up suspect at present, but there is a suspicion: Since the assassin committed suicide, why did he confess the behind-the-scenes envoy?" Tang Quan said cautiously.

He was a middle-aged man with a tall appearance, about 1.75 meters tall, thin and smart and capable. As a third-rank official in a dark green brocade robe, Tang Quan was usually quite powerful, but at this moment he was facing Emperor Xu and the two first-rank Shangshu. Keeping a low profile is the right choice.

Xu Huang gently picked up the teacup: "What the several beloved ministers said makes sense. I have sent Linghu Shangshu to lead the Imperial Guard to the Prince's Mansion of Liang State to closely monitor the Prince of Liang State and capture all personnel except the Prince of Liang State. As for the strange behavior of the assassin to accuse the mastermind after committing suicide, I also feel it is very strange and can't figure it out."

Tang Quan quickly agreed: "Based on the past experience of investigating cases, if a certain criminal decides to die, the reason behind it is likely to be to protect the person related to him. But the assassin's behavior is strange, not only does not provide protection, but instead points to the mastermind, which is unreasonable. Just imagine, if he wants to testify, why kill himself?"

"Maybe the assassin suddenly realized the moment he died. He didn't want to be a abandoned son anymore, but instead launched the final resistance?" Lu Xuan didn't think about it and blurted out.

Emperor Xu frowned: "If the prince of Liang wants to kill me, he can let me stay on the fifth floor of Zhaixing Tower. But he proposed a plan to escape with a rope on the quilt. Isn't this an unnecessary move?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan quickly made a speculation: "Perhaps Prince Liang had already discussed with the assassin and took advantage of the moment when the emperor slid down the quilt rope without any defense to complete a fatal sneak attack."

As soon as he finished speaking, a noisy sound suddenly came from outside the Zhongcheng Prefecture Office, followed by the guards hurriedly: "There is a man who claims to be the deputy general of the Secretary of Linghu, please see him!"
