Chapter 98 How Innocent I Am
Shen Mansion.
Shen Zhiyi was playing chess with his left and right hands. When he heard the servant report this, he picked up the black piece in his left hand and played with it on his fingertips.
"You said you saw the eldest prince coming out of the palace?"
The servant replied yes.
The corners of Shen Zhiyi's lips curled up, and his slender jade-white fingers pinched the black piece and placed it on the chessboard.
There was a crisp "click" sound.
He stopped with satisfaction.
"It seems that Her Royal Highness the Princess has also made some efforts in this matter."
As Shen Zhiyi spoke, he held a white piece in his right hand, his eyes never leaving the chessboard.
"Go down and check where the eldest prince has been recently."
"yes."
The servant left, leaving Shen Zhiyi alone in the room. He raised his eyes and looked at the empty seat opposite the chessboard.
Your Highness, you are so smart.
He was the one who arranged the Sixth Prince's move, but based on that little evidence, at most the Emperor would dislike him, and at worst he would be placed under house arrest for a period of time.
After all, he is the emperor's son. How could the emperor kill his own son for the daughter of the previous emperor who was forced to abdicate and kill the emperor by him?
So, how did he manage to get the emperor to order the fifth prince to be beaten to death?
…
Only after returning to the princess's mansion did Shang Xi let out a deep breath.
Furong still hasn't recovered, "How could His Majesty..."
"You beat your own son to death for me?"
Fleur nodded.
Shang Xi chuckled, his eyes mocking: "Even if I die, it's not worth it for him to kill his own son."
“Then…” why?
Shang Xi said, "It was the Fifth Prince who hurt his most cherished reputation and exposed the dark thoughts he had tried so hard to hide."
The fifth prince was really stupid, even more stupid than he expected.
As the emperor's own son, even if he was sent to the imperial mausoleum, after a few years when the matter faded, he could write a letter to the emperor to express his filial piety and cry his heart out, and maybe he could return to Beijing to continue being his prince... or even a prince.
pity……
In order to prove his momentary pride, he spoke without thinking, which angered the emperor and he was beaten to death at the palace gate, an extremely ignominious death.
Furong understood, then asked worriedly, "Your Highness, do you think His Majesty will regret killing the Fifth Prince... and blame you for it?"
Shang Xi's fingers tapped lazily on the table, his posture languid and elegant. "How could it be? I am so innocent. First, I was assassinated by the Fifth Prince, and then I was instigated by the Sixth Prince to file a complaint. I am just a floating leaf, allowing them to manipulate me and drift in the direction they dictate."
Furong: “…”
Yes, yes, yes, master, you are the most innocent.
It's all their fault. They like to kill each other.
Shang Xi propped up his chin and looked at the fallen leaves in the yard. He couldn't help but think of Xiao Ning and murmured, "I wonder what he's been doing lately?"
Furong was speechless.
The prince consort had been gone for less than two days and the master already began to miss him.
Then these days will be hard to endure!
Xiao Ning, who is missed by others, is fighting with Xu Chong.
She created her own set of marksmanship by combining some moves she had seen in movies and TV dramas in her previous life with situations she might encounter in actual combat.
The two spears were like swimming dragons, and sparks flew when the weapons collided.
The spear tips collided and retreated, and the two men's movements were first-class, which made the soldiers watching the battle dazzled.
In the end, Xiao Ning made a comeback and won the game.
Xu Chong panted, leaning on his gun, and said in shock: "You have only practiced for a few months, and you have mastered such a pistol skill!"
Xiao Ning raised his lips, put away his gun, and snorted, "There's nothing I can do. Who says your captain is a genius?"
Although Xiao Ning was being cocky, everyone agreed with his words and shouted, "Captain, you are mighty!"
The roar shook the sky.
Xiao Ning quickly stopped them, "No, why are you yelling? I'm just joking, can't you hear me? If the other camps hear us, they'll laugh at us!"
Xu Chong slammed the spear in his hand to the ground and shouted, "Whoever dares to laugh at us, I will destroy him!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Ning slapped him on the head, "Why are you being so violent? When will you control your temper?"
Xu Chong: “…”
Xu Chong felt wronged, why did you hit him?
He did this for the captain and for their big family.
"Want to learn?"
Xiao Ning asked everyone.
Everyone nodded and looked at Xiao Ning with admiration.
From the initial submission due to status and position, to now, everyone submits to Xiao Ning from the bottom of their hearts, not only for her strength, but also for her broad mind.
The captain never kept anything to herself. She was willing to teach them military tactics and martial arts as long as they were willing to learn.
Not only that, they have a small competition every week, and the top ten contestants can receive a bag of flour.
Although it is not a very valuable thing, it can at least allow the family to have a few more full meals.
The generals above only saw that their small team was able to match the team that had been trained for three years in the main camp in just one month, but they did not see how much effort they had put in and how much effort the captain had put in.
How fortunate I am to meet someone like Xiaowei in this life.
If possible, they really want to follow the captain for the rest of their lives.
Xiao Ning demonstrated a set of simple moves to them in slow motion, asking them to practice first. After they had learned them, they would practice in pairs, and he would teach them new moves another day.
Xu Chong had a high talent for martial arts. When Xiao Ning was practicing with a gun, he followed him and when everyone started practicing, he moved closer to Xiao Ning.
"Captain, please teach me the rest. I've already learned it."
Xiao Ning: “…”
You kid won't let me rest at all.
Xiao Ning drank two sips of water and then stood up to instruct Xu Chong on the next steps.
Xu Chong learned quickly. After practicing twice with Xiao Ning, he was able to use this set of spear techniques smoothly.
Xiao Ning applauded, "Not bad, not bad. Practice a few more times and teach them later."
Xu Chong snorted, "Push it to me again?"
Xiao Ning clenched his fist and nudged his shoulder, "What do you mean by pushing it to you again? I trust you, so I entrusted such an important matter to you. Otherwise, why wouldn't I give it to someone else?"
Xu Chong: "Because others are not as good as me."
Xiao Ning: "...How could you miss your captain so much? It makes me so sad."
As he said this, he held his chest with a sad look on his face.
Xu Chong: “…”
Why do I feel like I'm being forced into a condom?
But he still couldn't stand the captain looking at him like that, scratching his head and saying, "Alright, alright, I'll teach them, that bunch of rubbish..."
Before he could finish his words, Xiao Ning slapped him on the back of the head, "What a piece of crap! He's your comrade! The brother who carried your back on the battlefield!"
Xu Chong: “…”
Hit him again!
Beat him every day!
Why don't you hit others!
Xu Chong touched the back of his head and glared at Xiao Ning with a fierce look on his face.
He muttered, "I'm just a loser to begin with. I spent so much time learning how to shoot and I haven't even mastered the basics..."
This cute contrast really made Xiao Ning laugh.
She thought he was going to fight with her, but this is what happened?
Make the most ferocious expression, use the softest tone, and say words that are not so soft.
Xu Chong didn't understand why she was laughing, so he asked, "What are you laughing at?"
Xiao Ning smiled and replied, "I laugh because you are cute."
Xu Chong: “…”
