"Prime Minister, something bad has happened!"
That night.
Qin Chuan and others were still waiting for news in the study. They didn't see Qin An come back, but they heard the servants in the mansion banging on the door.
"What's wrong?" Qin Laosan was frightened by the knock on the door and walked forward to open the door with an angry look on his face.
"Oh no! Lord Prime Minister, Second Master, Third Master, many soldiers have come outside the palace and have surrounded our Qin Mansion!"
"What?"
Several people looked at each other.
"Could it be? Qin An was caught?" Qin Er couldn't believe it. He knew Qin An's skills, so how could he be caught so easily.
Qin Chuan thought: "Don't panic, let's go and see what's going on first?!"
Outside the house.
Gu Qingchen was sitting on his horse in a black robe. As soon as Prime Minister Qin came out of the mansion, he saw this and knew that something was wrong.
"Your humble servant greets His Majesty. I wonder why Your Majesty has come here so late at night?"
Mo Jiu, who was released after being punished for speaking up for Bai Mo last time, was severely punished by his brothers during the few days he was locked up in a small dark room. They said that he usually took the princess's magic medicine and then went to flatter others, which was something only a treacherous and evil person would do.
Therefore, after thoroughly understanding the princess's position in the prince's heart, he felt deeply ashamed. Now that he had finally had the chance to show his ability, he immediately stepped forward angrily, sword drawn, and shouted, "How dare you frame the princess? You, the Qin family, are so bold!"
"Who are you? Do you have the right to speak here?"
Qin Laosan happened to be standing next to Qin Chuan, and Mo Jiu's sword was facing him. Normally, everyone treated him as a guest of honor, but now he was being scolded by a guard. The more he thought about it, the more indignant he became. Qin Laosan just took a step forward to scold Mo Jiu, and the next moment, he heard a "Ah--" sound.
Mo Jiu actually kicked Qin Lao San away.
"You! You guys!"
Qin Chuan was furious. "Your Highness! What do you mean by this? Your Highness, are you deliberately bringing people here to humiliate me?"
"Bullying?" Gu Qingchen held the reins, leaned forward, with a smile in his eyes, but there was an unstoppable chill in his eyes. Qin Chuan was speechless for a moment because of the opponent's momentum.
"He tried to sneak attack me, but the guards only kicked him. If I had taken action, it would have been more than that."
Qin Er was about to retort when Qin Chuan stopped him.
He took a deep breath and said after a while, "Your Highness is absolutely right. It is my brother's fault."
"Then I wonder what brings you to the Qin Mansion, Your Majesty?"
"Lord Qin."
Bai Zhou took two steps forward and waved his hand. Qin Chuan heard a bang and looked closely. The person thrown to the ground was actually the secret guard of Bai Ya Tower.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they didn't see Qin An.
Following the previous orders (threats) from the Moyun Pavilion, Queshan, the White Crow Tower's secret guard, hurriedly said, "Sir, spare my life! I was forced to do this! They were the ones who told me to kill those two old men!"
He kowtowed and regretted it. If he hadn't had no food to eat, he wouldn't have become a secret guard. He was also told that he would receive training after joining. In the end, he didn't get any benefits. As soon as he arrived, he was assigned an assassination mission.
At first, Queshan thought he was being valued by the higher-ups and that good things were coming for him! Who would have thought that he would actually go against the royal family? This was like sending him to his death!
The people from Moyun Pavilion said that if he pointed out the real mastermind behind the incident, he could save his life.
Thinking of this, Queshan was about to say something when he heard a "puff" sound.
When he looked down, he saw a cold sword stuck straight into his chest, with red blood on the tip of the sword.
"Qin Er!"
Bai Zhou had no time to stop him, and could only watch the secret guard kneel straight on the ground and fall forward.
"Hmph, a nobody dares to frame my Qin Mansion!" Qin Er threw the sword in his hand to the ground. "Master Bai, investigating a case requires witnesses and physical evidence. If you just find someone to frame my Qin Mansion, we won't admit it!"
"you!"
Bai Zhou was almost angry to death. This Qin Lao Er is such a bastard!
"Your Highness!" Bai Zhou turned and looked at Gu Qingchen, not knowing what to do next.
Gu Qingchen actually laughed, "Prime Minister Qin, you don't really think that I will come looking for you just because I captured a secret guard, do you?"
Hearing this, the three Qin brothers were stunned.
Since they didn't see Qin An just now, they guessed that Jiang Li pretended to agree and then gave the murderer to Gu Qingchen.
That's why Qin Er dared to go all out and kill the man directly.
But if we follow his words——
"Bring him up!" Gu Qingchen opened his thin lips and uttered three words coldly.
"Master..."
Qin An had a dejected look on his face, and he lowered his head, not daring to look at his master.
I've fallen into a trap! Qin Chuan frowned and gritted his teeth.
He also said that Jiang Li wanted to divorce him, it turned out that they were all trying to lure him into the trap!
Glancing at Qin Chuan, Gu Qingchen smiled coldly, "Now that we have all the evidence, what else do you want to say, Sir Qin?"
The man's deep eyes reflected a chilling cold light. Qin Chuan took a deep breath and was about to say something when he heard Qin Er burst into laughter. "Hahahaha, good, no wonder the prince made such a big fuss. In that case, I will take the blame for my actions alone. These matters were all ordered by me alone and have nothing to do with anyone else. Prince, Lord Bai, I am willing to go with you and await your decision!"
"Second brother!"
“Second brother!”
"Second Uncle!"
The three people present did not expect that Qin Er would take all the responsibility on himself.
Qin Er looked at Qin Chuan and shook his head. Now that things had come to this, it would be better for him to take the blame than to lose the entire Qin Mansion.
"When Jiang Li broke off the engagement, it brought disgrace to the Qin family's reputation. I've never gotten over it. So, I instigated Jiang Sheng to manipulate Jiang Li's background and then charged her with murder, making it impossible for Jiang Li to recover."
