Cen Wendao's face showed an extremely sad feeling, mixed with a little helplessness.

King Qi Li Xiang's eyelids twitched and he sighed: "It seems that this assassin is completely prepared. In this case, Master Cen has to be more careful. What I am worried about is that he will come back. If he comes again.

The second time, Mr. Cen needs to be even more careful."

At this moment, Qi King Li Xiang was very concerned about Cen Wendao's safety.

After all, Cen Wendao is the leader of King Qi's party. If such a powerful general is missing, who will charge into the battle for King Qi, and who will cheer for him?

What's more, it is not that easy to find a high-level official like Zuodu Yushi as a confidant.

Qi King Li Xiang was quite cautious at this time.

He knew that the absolute safety of Cen Wendao must be ensured, so he suggested: "How about this? I will allocate some guards from the palace to garrison at Cen Aiqing's residence, so that Master Cen can rest in peace and recover from his injuries."

"His Royal Highness King Qi, you must not do this!"

At this moment, Cen Wendao said hurriedly: "At this point in time, you must hold back. This assassin is obviously targeting me, but in fact it is to target His Highness. If Your Highness really does this, it will be a violation of your authority."

People are used as leverage. If the other party criticizes your personal relationship with a powerful official, the consequences will be disastrous. Your Highness, you must think twice."

At this moment, Qi King Li Xiangfang calmed down a bit.

What Cen Wendao said just now is actually very reasonable.

"Who can have such a deep scheming mind? After much thought, I am afraid that it is only the one from the East Palace."

There is no one else here, so Qi King Li Xiang no longer hides and tucks in.

In his opinion, if he could explain the matter thoroughly to Cen Wendao at this time, he could avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Otherwise, if Cen Wendao is stupid or he himself is stupid, it will be very troublesome.

"Prince? Your Highness, Prince Qi, is it definitely the prince who did this?"

"The assassin has not even been caught. How can I be sure that it is the prince? However, I do think that the prince has enough motives to do this."

At this moment, Qi King Li Xiang could only infer.

As he said, even the assassin has not been caught, so everything can only be speculated.

But purely from a motive analysis, the possibility of Prince Li Xiankun is indeed very high.

"Well, actually, I have thought that the prince is the person behind the scenes. However, I have never dared to say for sure."

At this moment, Cen Wendao sighed and said: "Actually, this matter is indeed a coincidence. I just impeached the prince, and then he was assassinated. No matter from any point of view, the prince is extremely suspicious."

"Yes, but everything depends on evidence. If we don't have evidence, it won't be enough to bring down the prince. So we must collect as much evidence as possible, whether it is human evidence or physical evidence."

"Your Highness, King Qi, I will definitely obey your orders."

"Cen Aiqing, don't think about this for now. I will arrange for people to do it. Just go and recuperate your injuries now. Only if you can recover from your injuries will the future things be meaningful. You must not have any accidents."

Qi King Li Xiang held Cen Wendao's hand and said earnestly.

In his opinion, Cen Wendao is his right-hand man and there is no room for any mistakes.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. If Your Highness treats me like this, I will definitely take care of myself and live up to His Highness's trust."

Cen Wendao said very moved at this time.

"As for whether the prince is the mastermind, I will definitely investigate clearly."

Qi King Li Xiang clenched his fists at this time and said fiercely.

...

...

Daming Palace.

In the Zichen Hall, Emperor Xianlong was waiting for a message.

He rarely has such a leisurely and elegant mood. The main reason why he is so elegant today is because Master Huiyan helped him resolve a huge doubt.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

At this time, Emperor Xianlong's personal servant hurriedly ran to Emperor Xianlong.

Seeing him like this, Emperor Xianlong couldn't help but frown and said: "How can you behave so well if you are so flustered? Wouldn't it be ridiculous if you were seen by others? You are the person around me, so you must pay attention to your manners."

"What your Majesty taught you is..."

The waiter quickly slapped his mouth.

"That's all."

Emperor Xianlong shouted quickly: "Tell me, what is it? You are usually a steady person. Something must have happened to make you so panicked."

"Your Majesty, it is His Royal Highness Prince Qi who is kneeling in front of the main hall of Zichen Palace, saying that he wants to complain to you."

"call..."

After hearing this, Emperor Xianlong took a deep breath and said, "If this is the case, then my son is really going to be successful."

"Actually, among my sons, King Qi is the one who is most like me. Whether it is martial arts or other aspects, King Qi is impeccable. But what is he doing today? It is rare to see him so reckless on weekdays.

of."

Emperor Xianlong became confused at this time.

Emperor Xianlong could only understand the temperament and temperament of his sons.

Therefore, whenever such a phenomenon occurs, Emperor Xianlong will try his best to dig as deep as possible and strive to dig out more things.

"I heard it was related to Master Cen's assassination..."

The chamberlain whispered.

"Cen Wendao was assassinated?"

Emperor Xianlong raised his eyebrows and looked very surprised.

"Back to Your Majesty, that's what happened just now."

"That's all, let's have an audience with King Xuan Qi."

At this moment Emperor Xianlong probably understood something and waved his hand.

The chamberlain quickly promised and took the order and left.

Emperor Xianlong's face was as dark as water and he returned to the throne.

At this moment, he was actually thinking about many things deep in his heart.

Who is the most likely murderer in the assassination of Cen Wendao?

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that the East Palace is very suspicious.

But was it really Donggong’s doing?

Could there be many other things hidden behind this appearance?

Emperor Xianlong was really confused.

But as an emperor, he should have the ability to peel off cocoons.

Therefore, even if something seems confusing, Emperor Xianlong still needs to explore it as much as possible.

Not long after, Qi King Li Xiang was brought to the presence of Emperor Xianlong.

But when he saw the King of Qi pushing down the golden mountain and knocking down the jade pillar, he knelt down and saluted.

"My sons and ministers see my father. Long live my father. Long live my father."

King Li Xiang of Qi had perfected the etiquette, and Emperor Xianlong was naturally very happy in his heart.

His son really paid attention to etiquette, which made Emperor Xianlong feel extremely gratified.

"Come and give King Qi a seat."

At this moment, a chamberlain carried the Jindun to behind King Qi Li Xiang and put it on the ground respectfully.

"Thank you, Father, for your grace."

King Qi Li Xiang quickly thanked him and then carefully sat on the Jindun.

He was really afraid of the person in front of him.

This man is his father and his king.

When one person simultaneously holds the position of king and father, the sense of power that comes from being pampered and pampered in daily life is indeed very satisfying.

Of course, the purpose of Qi King Li Xiang entering the palace today is still very clear.

Li Xiang was still able to overcome the fear in his heart when his purpose was clear.

"Tell me, why did you come to the palace to see me today?"

Emperor Xianlong was not angry and assertive, but as soon as he opened his mouth, King Qi Li Xiang felt a strong sense of oppression.

"Replying to my father, I came to the palace because of the assassination of Lord Cen. Lord Cen was a high-ranking official of the imperial court, but he was assassinated by an assassin in broad daylight. Where is the face of the court? Where is the face of my father?"

"I'm afraid he's your subordinate?"
