Jingzhao Prefecture Yamen.
With the persistence of Yu Jian and other Jinwu Guards, the matter was finally uncovered.
"The Du family is said to be courageous, but they only dared to blow up the tombstone of the late emperor, and did not dare to touch other people's tombs. They are said to be timid, but they dared to touch even the emperor's mausoleum." After a Jinwu guard finished muttering this, he saw the boss turned over and rode on the horse, looking anxious to leave, and hurriedly called him: "Boss, where are you going?"
"I suspect Du Qingke has rebellious intentions, and I will report it immediately."
"Today, your majesty and the crown prince are attending the Grain in Ear sacrificial ceremony outside the city. The surrounding areas are heavily guarded. We are just small Jinwu Guards. How can we meet your majesty?"
"The news has been passed from Jingzhao Prefecture to the six ministries. What we have to do is to fight." Yu Jian touched the sword at his waist: "If we can make merit, it will be the merit of our ancestors. If we can't make merit, it will be a wasted trip. Do you want to fight with me?"
“Let’s fight!”
The Jinwu Guards mounted their horses one after another. Yu Jian's confidant rode up to Yu Jian and whispered, "Boss, I think this is a bit strange."
"What's so strange about that?"
"The housekeeper of the Du family said that he did all this in order to cause trouble for the crown prince at the ceremony of enthroning him. But after the incident came to light, not only did the crown prince not get into any trouble, he also gave His Majesty a reason to lock up the other princes in the palace." The Jinwu Guards almost said it clearly. This was not framing the crown prince at all, but clearly helping him.
What is even more puzzling is that after they captured the Du family's housekeeper and brought him to Jingzhao Prefecture, the Du family not only did not send anyone to take the housekeeper away, they did not even kill him to silence him.
Is this the arrogance of the aristocratic family, or is it just a desperate move?
"Your Highness." Sitting in the spacious carriage, Jiuzhu saw that both sides of the road were covered with yellow cloth, and guards stood every few steps.
There was no noise from the people, and except for the sound of carriages and horse hooves, there was no other sound.
"I'm not used to being so serious and quiet."
"That's why father rarely rides the imperial carriage out of the palace on weekdays." Yun Duqing reached out and took Jiuzhu into his arms. He lowered his head and was about to speak when his chin was almost pierced by the nine-tailed phoenix hairpin on her bun. He turned his head to the side, missing her bun a little.
Jiuzhu lay on his knees and laughed out loud.
"You heartless Crown Princess, I was almost stabbed by your hairpin, and you still laughed." He looked at the various hairpins on her head: "These hairpins are beautiful, but if you pull one out, you can kill someone."
"Don't move, Your Highness. These hairpins are very beautiful." Jiuzhu protected her hair full of pearls and jade: "All of them were specially picked for me by my mother."
Yun Duqing thought about the various jewels sent by his mother and felt a headache. If his mother continued to send so many jewels, he, as a husband, would not know what to give Jiuzhu in the future.
"This is your first time attending the Grain in Ear sacrificial ceremony. You will be standing next to your mother in a moment. Just follow her instructions." Yun Duqing lifted the curtain and took a look. "We are almost at the altar in the suburbs."
When they arrived at the place, Jiuzhu was unable to get off the carriage immediately. He sat in the carriage until there was a period of majestic drum and trumpet sounds, and then the ceremonial officer came to invite them to go to the altar.
Princess Huai and Princess An were already waiting outside the carriage. When they saw Jiuzhu getting off the carriage, they greeted her. After Jiuzhu returned the greeting, she looked around and asked in a low voice, "Why isn't my third sister-in-law here?"
Princess Huai smiled and saluted Yun Duqing. After he and the ceremonial officer left, she lagged behind Jiuzhu by half a step and whispered, "My third brother and his wife made a big noise last night. This morning, my third brother said that his wife was not feeling well and could not go out."
For such an important sacrificial ceremony, if the prince and the princess had not torn their faces, it would be impossible for the princess not to appear. I didn't expect that the third brother seemed to be gentle, but he was ruthless in doing things.
"Hello, Crown Princess, Hello, two princesses." Xiang Xian walked over and saluted to the three of them: "Crown Princess, the Queen asked me to take you over."
Seeing this scene, Princess Huai was filled with emotion. The Queen really treated the Crown Princess like her own daughter. In such an occasion, bringing the Crown Princess to her side was undoubtedly an announcement to everyone in the world that the Crown Princess was the second most noble woman in the world.
There are always more mothers-in-law who oppress their daughters-in-law than those who lift them up, let alone lift them up to this extent.
"Jiuzhu, come here." Su Hou saw Jiuzhu coming and waved at her. When she came closer, he asked in a low voice: "This is your first time to participate in a sacrificial ceremony. Are you nervous?"
Jiuzhu shook her head: "It's lively and crowded."
Su Hou laughed: "There are indeed a lot of people."
She told Jiuzhu a few things to pay attention to and patted her on the back of her hand twice: "From now on, you stand by my side. As long as I am here, all your words and actions will be good, and no one will dare to criticize you."
The horn sounded, and the sacrificial ceremony was about to begin.
The civil and military officials, as well as the princess' wives, lined up below the altar, holding their breath in concentration.
Su Hou felt something touching the back of her foot. She looked down and saw that it was a peach wood gourd that Jiuzhu had carved for her herself.
Before leaving the palace, she had clearly tied it tightly around her waist, so how could it fall off?
Seeing the round gourd about to fall down the steps, Su Hou bent her knees, reached out and grasped the peach wood gourd that had rolled to the edge of the altar in her palm.
whoosh.
When the sound of breaking air rang in her ears, she didn't notice anything unusual, she only heard a ding.
She raised her head and saw Jiuzhu holding the gold-bronze hairpin and half of the arrow she had given her in her hands, and the other half had fallen to the ground.
"Father, mother, there is an assassin." Jiuzhu picked up Empress Su and pushed her into Emperor Longfeng's arms, standing in front of the two of them. She also took off a golden hairpin from her head and stuffed it into Yun Duqing's hand: "Your Highness, take this to protect yourself."
No one except the ceremonial officer could go up to the altar. The dragon guards sensed something was wrong and rushed over to protect the chariot, but the ceremonial officer was faster than them and pulled out a flying knife from his hat and aimed it at the Queen's throat.
Emperor Longfeng held Empress Su in his arms without a second thought, using his body as a shield in an attempt to protect her.
The one who was faster than him was Jiuzhu. At the moment when the "ceremonial officer" threw the flying knife, she seemed to predict the direction of the flying knife and threw the bronze hairpin in her hand.
The bronze hairpin and the flying knife collided in the air and fell to the ground simultaneously.
The ceremonial officer seemed to have not expected such a sudden change. He was stunned for a moment, and then Jiuzhu kicked him off the altar.
The civil and military officials were frightened by the sudden change. Just as they had time to call for protection, they saw one of the assassins being kicked off the altar by the petite Crown Princess.
Fortunately, Jiuzhu reacted quickly, giving the Dragon Guards a chance to rush over, surrounding the four people and protecting them tightly.
In the blink of an eye, Yun Duqing saw Jiuzhu pull out another hairpin from her hair and looked around vigilantly. At this moment, she was also a little wary of the Dragon Guards.
The most dangerous thing now is the arrows that come from nowhere.
Logically speaking, the area within two kilometers around the altar had been strictly checked, and the identities of all people had been examined, unless someone in a high-ranking position colluded with the assassin and allowed the assassin to sneak in.
Looking at the hairpin in Jiuzhu's hand and the crooked bun, Yun Duqing suspected that what he had just said in the carriage was not auspicious enough.
Why did he mention that hairpins can kill people?
At this moment, arrows flew from all directions. The dragon guard held a shield in one hand and protected the four people as they walked down the altar.
Some loyal ministers tried to go up to the altar to protect the emperor, but the dragon guards were worried that they might be involved with the assassins, so they did not let them get close.
The six ministers reacted and immediately arranged for the officials and ladies to evacuate. Ming Jinghai took out the sword from a guard's waist and guarded the outer circle majestically. The officials of the Ministry of Personnel hiding behind him suddenly felt infinitely safe.
"Boss, look at that tree over there, is someone shooting arrows?" When the Jinwu guards rushed to the perimeter of the altar, they found something was wrong. Several guards had fallen to one side, and two archers in gray clothes and masks were squatting on a big tree.
"Hurry up." Yu Jian pulled out the knife from his waist and threw it towards the tree. One of the archers fell from the tree: "Catch the assassin!"
"Brothers, the opportunity to make achievements has arrived!"
Upon hearing this, the Jinwu Guards rushed forward and threw their knives at the same time. The remaining archer on the tree was instantly stabbed into a hedgehog.
"Something must have happened at the altar." Yu Jian pulled the knife from the assassin. Seeing that the assassin still had a few breaths left, he asked his brothers to tie him up and prepared to go to the prince to take credit for the crime.
"These assassins are sneaky and definitely have bad intentions. Let's look around. There must be some who have slipped through the net."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the Golden Armor Guards riding their horses towards this side. Although they were all guards starting with gold, the Golden Armor Guards were of much higher status than the Jinwu Guards.
The Jinjiawei had not expected that the Jinwuwei who usually patrolled the streets would appear here. He thought they were just passing by here to hunt down criminals. He took out his badge and said, "We are doing our duty. Please help us, brothers of the Jinwuwei."
Yu Jian glanced at the armor on the golden guard with envy and asked politely, "Are you going to catch the assassin?"
The Golden Armored Guards immediately became alert, fearing to cause panic among the people. What happened at the altar had not been announced to the outside world, so how did these Golden Armored Guards know about it?
They put their hands on the hilts of their knives. The atmosphere was extremely tense and the fight was about to break out.
"Please don't misunderstand me, sirs." Yu Jian saw that they had misunderstood and quickly explained, "This is the archer assassin we captured."
He pointed at the bound assassin and then at the tree nearby.
The golden armored guards were silent when they saw the assassin, who was impaled on the tree like a hedgehog with his eyes wide open.
"My Lords, we brothers are all experts in the Jinwu Guards. In this critical moment, we are willing to lend a helping hand to you, my Lords."
The Golden Armor Guard was also afraid that they would talk nonsense outside after leaving, so he agreed after a brief thought.
"Then there are the brothers of Lao Jinwuwei."
"We are all citizens of Dacheng. It is our duty to be loyal to His Majesty."
The dragon guards were right to worry, as there were assassins in disguise among the officials. In the chaos, these assassins tore off their official robes, revealing their powerful clothes underneath.
The officials adjacent to them were stunned. No wonder this colleague had been silent today. It turned out that he was an assassin in disguise!
At this moment, he pulled out a dagger from his boot and swung it at the official closest to him. Suddenly, a stone flew over and hit his arm.
The dagger fell with a sound.
The assassin looked at the person who threw the stone with cold eyes.
Ming Jingzhou, looking frail and weak, had a pale face, and was still holding some stones in his hands that he had not thrown yet.
"Minister Ming, hurry up." The rescued official came to his senses and rushed over to hug the assassin's thigh: "You are our humerus, you must not get hurt."
Unexpectedly, Ming Jingzhou not only did not run away, but also rushed over and hugged the assassin's other thigh with both hands.
"You and I are both officials in the same court. How can I abandon you and run away?"
"Want to die?" The assassin sneered: "I'll grant your wish."
He clenched his hands into claws and attacked the two men's necks, ready to break their necks.
“Crack.”
A piercing pain came from his ankle, and the assassin screamed and fell to the ground.
"He, he, he, he...what happened to him?" The official stepped back in fear, then remembered that Ming Jingzhou was still sitting on the ground, so he quickly pulled him up: "Minister Ming, are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Ming Jingzhou brushed off the dust on his sleeves. "This assassin may not be in good health. I just hugged his leg and his leg bone broke."
"Your bones are so fragile, how can you be an assassin?" Seeing that the assassin was still wailing, the official bent down, picked up a stone on the ground, and smashed the assassin with the stone.
"Master Ming, come, let's tie him up together." He said as he untied the assassin's belt.
Ming Jingzhou couldn't help but look at him twice more. He didn't expect that Prince Huai's father-in-law would act in the same way... without paying attention to details.
The official rescued by Ming Jingzhou was none other than Princess Huai's father, Minister Wu of the Ministry of Works.
Why did the assassin want to kill Princess Huai's biological father?
Ming Jingzhou bowed his head to help Minister Wu tie up the assassin, and he had a vague guess in his mind. He stood up and looked in the direction of the emperor and empress, and then saw his daughter tear off a hairpin and use it as a dart. The hairpin flew out in the blink of an eye and stabbed an assassin unconscious.
"Minister Ming, the Crown Princess is really amazing." Minister Wu stood beside him and said in admiration, "She was able to stab the assassin unconscious with the golden hairpin."
"That girl has learned some superficial medical knowledge and has some knowledge of acupuncture points on the human body, so she has some skills." Ming Jingzhou coughed dryly and said, "Minister Wu, please don't praise her."
Except for the nine-tailed phoenix hairpin, Jiuzhu had already thrown away all the hairpins in her hair. She took off the nine-tailed phoenix hairpin and put it in the queen's hand, letting her long black hair fall loose. "Mother, wait for me."
Her throwing skill of flying knives was not very good, and half of the golden hairpins she threw could not hit the acupuncture points she wanted to pierce, so she had to go to other concubines to borrow some hairpins.
"Wait..." Before Yun Duqing could stop her, he saw her flash away.
She always said she was born in the year of the dog, and now he believes it.
Because she runs faster than a dog.
Several high-ranking concubines were hiding together. When they saw the Crown Princess run up to them and say "excuse me", they took off some of their hair pins.
When Jiuzhu was about to pull out her hairpin, Concubine Wei hardened her heart and reached out to grab the hem of Jiuzhu's skirt, intending to trip her.
With a thud, Concubine Wei was dragged to the ground, her face rubbed against the ground, causing a burning pain.
"I'm sorry, Concubine Wei." Jiuzhu threw down an apology and ran away like the wind.
Concubine Wei lay on the ground, unable to recover for a long time.
Is she pulling a cow?
Why was she the one who fell?
This doesn't make sense.
With a bunch of hairpins in her arms, Jiuzhu felt less stressed, but she always pierced the wrong acupuncture points. She felt guilty, but also relieved.
Fortunately, the two masters were not there, otherwise they would say that she had no talent.
Seeing an assassin rushing towards her, he was stabbed five or six times by her flying hairpin before falling down. Jiuzhu covered her face and hid behind Yun Duqing.
She couldn't afford to lose face because she didn't work hard when she was young and didn't master her skills well.
Under the strict defense of the Golden Armor Guards and the Dragon Guards, all the assassins were subdued. Two of the three assassins who intended to harm officials were chopped to the ground by Ming Jinghai's knife, and one had his leg bone broken for unknown reasons and was tied up by Ming Shilang of the Ministry of Rites and Wu Shilang of the Ministry of Works.
Princess Huai felt relieved to hear that not only was her father fine, but she and the Crown Princess's father also captured an assassin.
The worst was the assassin who was killed by the Jinwu Guards' random swords.
What was more embarrassing were the assassins who had several women's hairpins stuck in their bodies, who wanted to die but couldn't, and whose whole bodies were unable to move. They stared at Ming Jiuzhu, who was still holding a bunch of hairpins in his hand, and their eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
If hatred could turn into knives, Jiuzhu would definitely be stabbed with knives all over his body at this moment.
"Crown Princess, we obeyed your orders and avenged the previous dynasty for you, why did you betray us?!"
The one assassin who was still able to speak shouted angrily, loud enough for everyone to hear.
The whole morning was filled with laughter.
Revenge of the previous dynasty?
Crown Princess?!
Everyone looked at the Crown Princess in astonishment, but all they saw was the Crown Prince protecting her behind him without hesitation.
"Now that your plan has failed, you are trying to discredit the Crown Princess. How ridiculous." Yun Duqing swept his eyes over everyone fiercely, and everyone quickly retracted their gazes, not daring to look again.
"No one has tortured you yet, but you are already eager to say that it was the Crown Princess who ordered you. This is such an obvious frame-up, even a fool would not believe it." Yun Duqing kicked the assassin: "You are slandering the Crown Princess, which is an even greater crime."
"If the Crown Princess had not sworn to us that she came to the capital to avenge her master's fall from power, how could we have obeyed her and stormed the altar?" The assassin said hatefully, "Ming Jiuzhu, you betrayed your master and us for the sake of glory and wealth, and you will be..."
Before he could finish his words, Yun Duqing kicked him in the front teeth, breaking them.
"Nonsense, drag him away and chop him off." If he still couldn't see that this was a conspiracy against Jiuzhu and the Ming family, he would be a fool.
"Your Highness..." Before Jiuzhu could say a word, Yun Duqing grabbed her hand and said, "I don't believe what these people say."
The hairpins in her hands all fell to the ground. Jiuzhu looked at Yun Duqing, who had a resolute expression on his face, and his hand tightly clasped with hers. Her big eyes smiled into a pair of crescent moons.
At this time, no one in the court, whether civil or military, stood up to speak, and no one blamed the Crown Princess.
They all saw and remembered how hard the Crown Princess tried to protect the Emperor, Empress and the Crown Prince.
The previous dynasty has been destroyed for one or two hundred years. Even if there are bloodlines left from the previous dynasty, they no longer have the energy to fight.
So there is only one truth: someone wants to frame the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess.
All the court officials turned their attention to the three princes, who were the three most suspicious candidates.
Prince Huai and Prince An felt very embarrassed by the looks given by the court officials, but they couldn't jump out and yell. They knew they really had nothing to do with the matter, so they could only force themselves to keep their heads down and pretend that they knew nothing.
Concubine Wei turned her head and looked in the direction of the ministers, hoping that the person arranged by Du Qingke would stand up and say a few words.
But the court officials were completely silent.
No one spoke, no one even doubted Ming Jiuzhu.
The royal family was suspicious, and when it came to the emperor's safety, the court officials were also cautious. According to common sense, even if they suspected Ming Jiuzhu was slandered by an assassin, they would still ask Ming Jiuzhu some questions.
For example, what she has done in Lingzhou in recent years and what is the identity of her master.
But Ming Jiuzhu broke this common sense.
Because she used her body as a shield to block the emperor and empress behind her, she kicked the assassin off the altar, she cut off the flying arrows with a gold and bronze hairpin, and she also used a hairpin to block the assassin's attack.
Her great uncle saved the lives of court officials, and her father joined forces with Princess Huai's father to subdue an assassin.
In this assassination attempt, if Ming Jiuzhu hadn't been there, the empress would have died, and even the emperor might not have survived.
This is not revenge at all, it's clearly repaying a favor.
"Don't worry, Crown Princess. The Empress and I will not believe the nonsense of these assassins." Emperor Longfeng said, "Please convey my order. The Crown Princess saved me and the Empress from danger with her own life, but we are family, so we should not thank her. The Crown Princess's father, Ming Jingzhou, taught his daughter well and was extremely talented. From now on, he will be given the title of the Crown Prince's Tutor and the title of Duke of Fuguo."
The emperor's attitude told everyone directly that not only did he not doubt the Crown Princess, but he also wanted to make use of the Ming family.
Concubine Wei covered the wound on her face with her hands in panic, watching everything that happened in a daze.
How could things be like this? It shouldn't be like this.
"Report! Your Majesty, Jinwu Guard Captain Yu Jian has important matters to report."
Who is Yu Jian?
The court officials were puzzled.
"Father, I have seen this man before. He is a smart man with some abilities." Yun Duqing said, "It's okay to meet him."
Emperor Longfeng nodded and said, "As the Crown Prince said, announce it."
As soon as Yu Jian arrived, he gave Emperor Longfeng a great gift, and then told him about the incident in which the housekeeper of the Du family blew up the tombstone of the previous emperor.
The aristocratic Du family?
Everyone looked at Du Qingke, but there was no panic on his face, and he even had a hint of smile on his face.
"Du Qingjia, do you have anything to say?"
"Your Majesty, what Lord Yu Jian said is not false at all." Du Qingke took off his official hat and knelt down: "I plead guilty."
"Concubine Wei, why are you sitting on the ground?" Seeing Concubine Wei suddenly staggering and sitting on the ground, Lu Zhaoyi reached out to help her up, but saw that her whole body was shaking violently.
"Mother." Princess An pulled her aside, away from Concubine Wei, and whispered, "Don't get close to Concubine Wei. I think something is wrong with her."
"What's wrong? Are you having an epileptic seizure?"
I've never heard that she has this problem before.
"Your Majesty, I found the mark of the Du Family Ironwork Shop on the weapon carried by the assassin."
Du Qingke was still kneeling on the ground, not defending himself.
Everyone felt that something was amiss, but no one dared to speak.
"Your Majesty, the weapons used by these assassins were indeed provided by me, but they are not my men." Du Qingke took out a few letters from his pocket: "My crime is unforgivable, and I am willing to be punished."
When Wei Jieyu saw the letter Du Qingke took out, she trembled even more violently. Is he crazy? What good will it do him?
Prince Jing saw that the situation was not right, and while others were not paying attention, he turned around and disappeared into the crowd, hurriedly leaving the place.
After Yu Jian finished his meeting with the Saint, his legs felt weak as he stepped back. When he reached a quiet place, he excitedly clenched his fists and jumped a few times on the spot.
After the jump, it was discovered that the third prince, King Jing, walked stealthily to a corner alone, as if he was preparing to crawl into a grass hole and leave.
The assassination had just happened, why did the Third Prince run away instead of staying to accompany the Emperor and Concubine Wei?
He narrowed his eyes and followed.
At this moment, the sacrificial venue was filled with a great deal of commotion.
Du Qingke actually admitted that today's assassination was a conspiracy arranged by him, Concubine Wei, and Prince Jing and her son.
Divorce the Ming family?
Let the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess become enemies, and let His Majesty doubt the Crown Prince?
Kill Princess Huai's father during the chaos and make Princess Huai hate the Crown Princess?
Everyone was confused by what they heard and didn't know how to react for a long time.
If the queen had not suddenly bent her knees and squatted down when the arrow flew over, the conspiracy might have succeeded.
If the Crown Princess had not kicked the assassin and risked her life to protect the carriage, the conspiracy might have succeeded.
But the queen bent her knees at the most critical moment.
The Crown Princess...
Um……
The Crown Princess is extremely skilled in martial arts, and is nothing like her frail father and brother.
No wonder the Ming family didn't like to mention the things about the Crown Princess being fostered in the Taoist temple. It turned out that they trained their daughter to be a master, who stayed by the Crown Prince's side in a low-key manner to protect the royal family.
The Ming family's loyalty to the royal family is truly touching.
Ming Jingzhou didn't know what was going on in the court officials' minds, but he felt that the way they looked at him was a little... too bright.
"Father, my sister is so amazing." Ming Jiyuan whispered in his ear, "The two immortals are really great."
Ming Jingzhou remained silent and lowered his head to straighten his official robe.
Don't ask him, he's just a powerless civil servant.
Emperor Longfeng took the letters presented by Du Qingke and could tell at a glance that some of the handwriting on the letters was written by Prince Jing, while others, with beautiful handwriting, should have been written by Concubine Wei or Princess Jing.
"I am aware of my grave sins. I do not ask for forgiveness from Your Majesty, but only for death." Du Qingke knelt on the ground, like a dying old man, without any hope of life.
He wants to die.
Jiuzhu saw in him the determination to die, as well as a trace of madness that dragged others to be buried with him.
As if noticing Jiuzhu's gaze, Du Qingke raised her head and met her eyes.
"I was born into a family of noble birth, and everything this family gave me was beyond my control." Du Qingke laughed sarcastically, "My manners have turned into rotten mud, weighing heavily on me."
"In this kind of family, people are not human, but puppets of the family's respectability." The twisted smile on Du Qingke's face disappeared, and he looked at Emperor Longfeng: "I can't choose what I want, and the women around you betray you because of interests. How much more glorious are you than me?"
"That's too much. You are incomparable to my father." Jiuzhu said in a fair and just manner, "My father is loved by my mother, respected by His Highness, and deeply loved by the people. He is also supported by the court officials. He is definitely much more glorious than you."
Emperor Longfeng coughed lightly and pretended that he heard nothing.
Du Qingke was silent.
Concubine Wei, who was brought over by the eunuch and kneeling on the ground, even wanted to tear Ming Jiuzhu's mouth.
She turned her head and looked at Du Qingke: "Did you do all this to deliberately frame me?"
"You are joking, Madam Concubine. Aren't you also trying to frame me?" Du Qingke laughed sarcastically, "You locked Princess Jing in the palace, isn't it to prevent the matter from being exposed and to cut off ties with the Du family?"
"What kind of person is a stupid and greedy woman like you?" He sneered, "You think you can use me?"
"If you didn't want to let the world see a concubine and a prince betraying the emperor, what rights do you think you have to order me to do things?" Du Qingke looked at Emperor Longfeng: "Your Majesty, your son wants your life, are you sad?"
Emperor Longfeng did not say anything, Jiuzhu whispered: "Your Highness, where is Prince Jing?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." A powerful voice came from outside.
"King Jing was sneaking around and trying to run away, but I caught him back!"
