Chapter 492: Slashing with a Knife
Gao Zilun looked up and saw a man standing up angrily: "Gao Zilun, if you want to die, don't involve me! And you want to lead the Jinyiwei away? Do you really think that the Jinyiwei are just here to eat? It's ridiculous!"
He left after saying this.
No one stopped him.
Gao Zilun had a sinister look in his eyes and muttered something. He retracted his gaze and looked at the people next to him: "You ignorant thing, let's continue. Where were we just now?"
"..."
There was a long silence, and then another person stood up: "I have some things to do at home, so I'll be leaving now."
Another person followed closely: "I suddenly remembered that my little bitch is about to give birth, and I have to go back to see her."
"Bye."
"See you another day, see you another day."
In the blink of an eye, most of the people on the pleasure boat had left, and Gao Zilun went from being disdainful at the beginning to being at a loss: "Brother Song, Brother Han..." In the blink of an eye
, only Gao Zilun and the servants who served him were left on the pleasure boat.
His expression suddenly changed, he clenched his teeth, and his anger surged: "You are all a bunch of greedy and cowardly bastards! The Xu family has already lost power, how many times do I have to tell you?!"
"You are so timid, no wonder you can't accomplish anything big!"
"Didn't you say it before? When it comes to doing it, everyone is scared!"
He waved his long arm, and the plates and bowls on the table fell to the ground one after another, with a crackling sound.
The servants were terrified.
When he finally calmed down, the servant dared to come forward to serve him: "Oh my lord, don't you just want to lure away the Jinyiwei? A big reward will always bring brave men. Find a few country folks and give them money, isn't it done?"
"What do you know! How long can the country folks hold them back? The Jinyiwei will just hack them one by one."
Gao Zilun frowned impatiently.
"Then find some martial arts masters. There are many people in the capital."
Gao Zilun seemed to be thinking about something.
...
Xiao Lingyu slept less than Jiang Kangan, and recovered his spirit overnight.
Thinking of what he said to the emperor when he was dazed, Xiao Lingyu's eyes went dark.
Why wake up? It's better to just sleep and die!
Before he could calm down, the emperor came in and saw Xiao Lingyu who had woken up. He said softly, "Are you awake? Are you feeling unwell?"
Xiao Lingyu shook his head and got out of bed, "Father, I..."
"Okay," the emperor raised his hand and signaled him to stop.
He knew what Xiao Lingyu was going to say, which was nothing more than some words of apology.
"It's not your fault. I didn't think it through."
Hearing the emperor say this, Xiao Lingyu was stunned and a little frightened.
"Recover your health in the palace in the next few days. I'm afraid he will take action against you next."
When Xiao Lingyu mentioned this, he nodded seriously.
The emperor looked at him and turned to leave.
The captain of the Jinyiwei stepped forward a few steps and said, "Your Majesty, Gao Zilun, the eldest son of the Minister of Rites, went to the Sixth Prince's Mansion. I don't know what they talked about there, but he was thrown out by the people in the Sixth Prince's Mansion."
"After that, he went to the pleasure boat and summoned many young masters of aristocratic families. Not long after, all the young masters of aristocratic families came out with angry faces."
The emperor pursed his lips slightly. There was no such person as Gao Zilun in his mind, but...
"I seem to have said that no one is allowed to visit the Sixth Prince during his house arrest? This Gao Zilun is very bold."
The captain's heart skipped a beat, and he heard the voice above his head asking, "What does he want to do?"
"He, he..." The captain hesitated, "He wants to divert the Jinyiwei in front of the Xu Mansion and go, go and defile Miss Jiang."
The only Miss Jiang in the Xu Mansion now is Jiang Sulan.
The emperor chuckled.
"The son raised by the Minister of Rites is really extraordinary. There was Gao Yan in front and Gao Zilun in the back."
"By the way, what happened to Gao Yan?"
The captain said in a deep voice: "After the confrontation in front of the palace, he hanged himself when he returned home. The Minister of Rites was worried that the emperor would be angry, so he seemed to have sent people to take the body back to his hometown to bury it overnight."
As for whether it was a real burial or a fake burial, he didn't know.
The emperor nodded slightly.
The captain said cautiously: "Then this..."
Do you care or not?
"Let him lead the way, and when the evidence is confirmed, bring him directly to see me."
The captain kowtowed and disappeared in an instant.
After leaving the palace, he remembered that he forgot to ask the emperor whether to tell Jiang Kang'an.
He hesitated for a long time, and finally rushed towards the direction of the imperial prison.
...
After searching day and night for several days, the King of Nanlong finally believed that there was no more gunpowder in Nanlong.
His face seemed to be covered with a layer of clouds, and it was terribly cold.
After this incident, he not only hated Jiang Zhiyu and Jiang Wenjing, but also hated the Great Elder.
If the Great Elder had not said that they were strong on the outside but weak on the inside, how could he allow his subjects to test them? !
Instead, they stole the limelight, and he lost a capable general!
The King of Nanlong was unhappy, and he had a bad face for several days. He also contradicted the Great Elder in front of everyone. The eyes of the other four elders looked at the Great Elder gradually became deep.
Nanlong is now in a stormy situation. The one who is most happy to see this scene, besides Jiang Wenjing and Jiang Zhiyu, is Casas.
The gloomier the Nanlong King's face is, the brighter Casas's face is.
Jiang Wenjing can't help but sigh in his heart every time:
What a filial son, he is really filial to his father.
The rain in Nanlong also showed a tendency to stagnate. It was impossible to bring in all the troops with so many people, but nearly 500 elite soldiers were brought in in the past few days, so it was possible to catch them by surprise.
Moreover, because of the gunpowder incident, the King of Nanlong's patience with them had almost reached its limit.
No monarch could tolerate the existence of uncertain threats on his territory.
I believe that within a week, the King of Nanlong would kill them all.
However, at this time, Casas came again, and brought a message.
"The high priest wants to see you."
...
In the imperial prison, Qianhu told the whole story, and Xu Yanli's hands were already clenched into fists.
Jiang Kangan's face was not good either.
Even without the Imperial Guards, with Ah Fu in the Xu Mansion, he was not worried about the safety of his grandmother and Sulan.
But not worrying is one thing, and being angry about this is another.
"Don't worry, the two of you, the Imperial Guards are just pretending to be led away. I will protect Miss Jiang's safety in secret."
Thinking that they were worried about Jiang Sulan's safety, the captain hastened to assure.
Jiang Kang'an was silent, and then he spoke a little: "Master, can I ask you for a favor?"
The captain was flattered: "Just tell me what you want to say."
Although Jiang Kang'an did not have a real official position, his weight in the emperor's heart was greater than any other minister.
Of course, the captain did not dare to neglect it.
"After catching him, beat him to death, but don't let him die for real."
