Du Gou was pushed away by a soldier of the Xuanjia Army.
Almost fell to the ground.
The Du Fu servants holding weapons on the side did not dare to move at this moment.
The group of Xuanjia troops in front of them was not something they could provoke.
"Really rushed in."
"This is the Duke of Lai Kingdom. What happened?"
"You haven't recognized it yet. The man standing in front of you is the former Wannian Duke Zhao. About a month ago, weren't all his properties confiscated?"
"There are also a few shopkeepers, guys, who disappeared inexplicably."
"I guess he was killed by someone."
"What Zhao Chen did when he came to Laiguo's residence today was probably Du He's doing."
"He came for revenge."
"revenge?"
"This is the Duke of Lai State. Because of a few ordinary shopkeepers and guys, they offended the Duke of Lai State and made such a big fuss."
"does it worth?"
The people's discussions can still be heard.
Qin Huaiyu and Li Ke both looked at Zhao Chen, but they were thinking the same thing as these common people said.
For the sake of several dead shopkeepers and clerks, they went to such great lengths to go to war, even at the cost of completely offending a prince.
does it worth?
Zhao Chen seemed to have heard nothing.
Standing at the door of Laiguo Duke's Mansion, he looked at Du Gou in front of him with indifferent eyes.
…
"Your Highness, do you really not want to go and take a look?" Chai Lingwu looked at Li Tai, who had a gloomy expression in front of him, and urged him in a low voice.
They had received news that the Xuanjia Army had surrounded the Lai Kingdom Palace.
If Li Tai had not come forward, Du Gou alone would not have been able to stop Zhao Chen.
"What will happen if I go away?"
"Will Zhao Chen listen to me?"
"Is it possible that this palace wants to lead an army to fight with the Xuanjia Army?" Li Tai looked at Chai Lingwu with a stern look on his face.
It's not that Li Tai doesn't want to save Du He.
But the key is how can he save him?
Although the queen did not clearly state Zhao Chen's identity, she did not deny it but affirmed it.
Li Tai was also in a state of confusion at the moment.
He couldn't figure out why the rumors outside could be true.
Zhao Chen is really the son of the emperor and the queen.
When he thought of this, Li Tai had nothing to think about.
Li Tai was worried that one day, the prince himself would be deposed by the emperor?
Just like Li Chengqian?
Is this the reason for the expedition to Goguryeo?
"Prince, has something happened?" Chai Lingwu and Li Tai asked.
After Li Tai came back from Li Zheng Palace, something looked wrong.
"It's okay, I'm just thinking about Du He and I'm worried!" Li Tai shook his head.
He would not tell Chai Lingwu the news that he had almost finished verifying.
Chai Lingwu's father, Chai Shao, is currently on the front line, and he himself gave him such an important task.
But what if Chai Lingwu knew Zhao Chen's identity from his own mouth.
Li Tai couldn't guarantee whether Chai Shao would have other thoughts!
Chai Lingwu just felt that things were not that simple.
But even if Li Tai didn't tell him, he wouldn't be able to guess.
Just thinking about Du He being surrounded by Zhao Chen in Du Mansion today.
If it were me after this, would I end up in the same situation?
I can't help but feel a little unmotivated.
"Lingwu, go and invite Kong Yingda and me." Chai Lingwu was thinking in his heart when he suddenly heard Li Tai ask him to invite Kong Yingda.
"Yes." Chai Linwu was stunned for a moment, then nodded and left.
…
"Mr. Kong, Zhao Chen acted so recklessly that he led the Xuanjia Army to openly surround the Duke of Lai Kingdom."
"How can we easily spare him such a perverse act?"
Confucius Mansion in Chang'an.
Today's Confucius Mansion is no longer as lively as it was back then.
Since the incident in Wannian County, Kong Yingda has been embarrassed several times.
With the opening of schools in various places, the status of the Confucius family is slowly declining.
Kong Yingda saw all this.
But what can he do?
Then Zhao Chen is simply a lunatic.
When you were in Lingyan Pavilion, you killed two fifth-rank officials in front of hundreds of officials?
Such a serious crime is only as simple as dismissal from office and reduction of rank.
If it were other people, they would have been sent to prison long ago, or at least three thousand miles of exile.
But Zhao Chen not only lived a good life, but was also appointed by the emperor to follow him to the south of the Yangtze River.
Kong Yingda used to think about cleaning up Zhao Chen to save face for himself and the Kong family.
But seeing how tolerant the emperor was to Zhao Chen, Kong Yingda knew that as long as the emperor was around, trying to deal with Zhao Chen would be a dream!
Seeing the official in front of him talking about Zhao Chen.
Talking about Zhao Chen’s perverse behavior.
Kong Yingda laughed secretly in his heart.
If Zhao Chen could really be dealt with, would he still be saying these words to himself here?
It's ridiculous that these people always naively think that just because they are officials in the court, they can influence the emperor's thoughts.
"Mr. Kong, are you listening to what I'm saying?" The official looked at Kong Yingda and said in a deep voice.
"Master, Chai Lingwu came over and said that the prince has invited you." The servants and Kong Yingda outside shouted.
"Got it." Kong Yingda responded, his eyes falling on the official in front of him.
"The situation in the court is in turmoil, and the prince is diligent. Now that the prince is called, I dare not disobey him."
"Go first, don't be surprised." After Kong Yingda finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the study.
A bunch of disgruntled officials were left behind.
…
"Zhao Da, the man has been captured." The soldiers of the Xuanjia Army said to Qin Huaiyu, and Qin Huaiyu said to Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen nodded and looked at Du Gou in front of him.
"Du Gou, I'll give Prime Minister Du some face and I won't make a big fuss in your Du family."
"Take the person away." Zhao Chen said to Du He and asked Qin Huaiyu to take the person away.
Du He was escorted out and his clothes were torn. The moment he saw Zhao Chen, a look of deep fear flashed across Du He's face.
The moment he killed Huang Zhi, he had already thought that he would be dealt with by Zhao Chen.
But what he didn't expect was that no one came forward to help him.
Li Tai.
Du He glanced at everyone in front of him, but no one saw Li Tai appear.
At this moment Du He became restless.
"Where is the prince? Where has the prince gone?"
"Didn't he say he would keep me safe?"
"Liar, Li Tai, you liar."
Du He broke down emotionally and cursed in front of him.
When Du Gou saw his brother acting like this, he hated Zhao Chen to the extreme.
Du Gou never expected that things would evolve to such a step.
"Take him outside the city." Zhao Chen glanced at Du Gou and didn't say anything to him.
He waved his hand and asked Qin Huaiyu to take Du He outside the city.
"Zhao Chen, he is my biological brother." Du Gou shouted to Zhao Chen from behind with a cold voice.
Zhao Chen stopped and looked back at Du Gou.
He pushed Huang Hui beside him forward and said, "The person Du He killed was his father."
Du Gou looked at Huang Hui in front of him who was full of hatred, and for a moment he didn't know how to refute.
"Du He didn't mean it. If this child wants any compensation, our Du family is willing to give it." Du Gou and Zhao Chen said, their arms shaking slightly from clenching their fists for a long time.
"Do you want compensation from him?" Zhao Chen looked at Huang Hui.
"No, I want him to pay for my father's life." Huang Hui looked at Du He and said slowly.
"Haha - haha -" Du He laughed like crazy from the side.?
