"Hahaha, this is delicious and sour."
"Your Majesty, the little one has been bullied."
"Who dares to bully you?"
"It's a boy named Chen Ke. He brought human practitioners to bully me. You see, he beat me so hard that my heart was almost broken."
"It's quite miserable. I'll take revenge on you, my lord."
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty."
"Ha ha……"
…
…
In Jingzhao Mansion, Chen Ke was only restricted from freedom and was not imprisoned.
Long Tu led people to look for evidence. When he found the officer who took the dagger, the clues were completely broken.
The officer committed suicide in the toilet, and the clues were lost. The officer entered the government office not long ago and only had two days. Long Tu could immediately conclude that this was a conspiracy against Chen Ke.
The only key witness died, turning the case of the princess' assassination into the opposite direction.
Long Tu brought several guards to Chen Ke's room. When Long Tu saw Chen Ke reading a book, he smiled and said, "I'm in a good mood."
Chen Ke said: "Enjoyment in suffering, Princess Jinde framed me like this, I have already figured it out."
The white guards and others behind Long Tu widened their eyes slightly. Chen Ke's words had some meaning and they figured it out. Should he admit defeat, or fight to the death with Princess Kinder?
Long Tu said: "What I said is still true. Even if the real culprit cannot be found, you are not the assassin who killed the princess. As long as His Majesty does not think you are an assassin, the princess said you are an assassin, but there is insufficient evidence."
Chen Ke said: "I have always believed in you, because I think you may be the last honest official in Zhao State."
"Haha, I'm not an honest official. I'm very satisfied if I can do something worthy of my conscience." Long Tu said with a smile.
Chen Ke asked Xiang Longtu: "Why did you come to see me?"
Long Tu raised his sleeves and said, "I want to let you go, but you can't stay in the capital."
Chen Ke asked: "Sir, what do you mean?"
Long Tu said: "According to the information, Princess Jinde has joined forces with the people of Ansheng Palace. If they want to deal with you, I will not be able to protect you. Now you can only leave the capital and wait for us to find out. The relationship between Ansheng Palace and the cross tattoo, and the crime of Princess Jinde framing you, will be cleared up for you by then!"
Chen Ke is a living target of Princess Jinde in the capital. Princess Jinde and the practitioners of Ansheng Palace join forces to plot against Chen Ke. Even Long Tu cannot protect him. Long Tu wanted to let Chen Ke leave first, and then take advantage of Princess Jinde and An Shenggong's slack to find out all this secretly and give Chen Ke justice.
Chen Ke frowned and said, "Sir, I can become a practitioner in less than two months."
Long Tu shook his head and sighed: "I can give you two months, but Princess Jinde will not give you two months. Some people in Ansheng Palace will not give you two months either."
Guard Bai also nodded and said: "Brother Chen Ke, keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood. Just listen to what the adults say, there is really no harm to you."
Chen Ke said: "Of course I will listen to what you say, but I want to give the princess a big gift before I leave."
"Chen Ke, don't mess around." Long Tu said.
Chen Ke said: "Don't worry, sir, I won't mess around."
I will only do it forcefully!
Long Tu and a few guards left, letting Chen Ke rest in the room.
In the afternoon, another government official came to inform Chen Ke that someone was visiting him.
Although Chen Ke couldn't go out, he could invite the other person in and ask him about his identity. Chen Ke was very surprised.
Is it Gu Lanshui? He came to visit me?
Chen Ke was slightly surprised. Now that he was imprisoned, he thought that the Gu family would stay away from him. Chen Ke has already seen the character of the Gu family. When he first came to the capital, Chen Ke, the victim of the well-known cross tattoo case, was well known to everyone, and no one from the Gu family came to see him.
Chen Ke already knew a little about the character of the Gu family.
Chen Ke was obviously surprised when Gu Lanshui came.
"Brother Gu, sit down."
Inviting Gu Lanshui into the room, Chen Ke smiled and asked him to take a seat.
Gu Lanshui did not sit down first, but bowed and apologized to Chen Ke: "Brother Chen, I'm really sorry. Because of your matter, my father and little sister are a little... please don't be angry, brother Chen. They are just scared." It’s broken. I believe that after Brother Chen is reinstated..."
Gu Lanshui's voice was barely audible during the words.
Even if Chen Ke didn't listen to what Gu Lanshui said, he could guess it. He smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. If he can meet such a loving and righteous friend as Brother Gu, Chen Ke's visit to the capital is not in vain."
After Gu Lanshui sat down, he shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Brother Chen, in fact, my father was not like this originally. He just lives in the capital. It's not easy. If he hadn't been careful, he would have been criticized by political opponents and resigned."
"I can understand."
Chen Ke said that when Chen Ke came to the capital, he could feel the pressure of one level even in Jingzhao Mansion. However, he made good friends with Long Tu when he came up, and he had a good relationship with Bai Guard Zhang Huwei and others. There were not many in Jingzhao Mansion. It's just someone who dares to bully him.
Gu Lanshui said: "As for the marriage between our two families, I personally think it can continue. If Brother Chen can't stand my little sister's character, I can terminate the contract on behalf of my father. If Brother Chen wants to continue, I will definitely restrain my little sister. , as long as Brother Chen can come out about this, I will preside over your marriage."
Chen Ke looked at Gu Lanshui and was even more surprised: "Brother Gu, why do you pay so much attention to me? I am already a guilty person and I don't deserve this from you."
Gu Lanshui sat up straight, looked at Chen Ke and said, "No, I have always felt that Brother Chen Ke is upright, affectionate and righteous. Especially knowing your past, I admire you very much. What happened to the Qin family made me Brother Chen admires me even more. As long as Brother Chen is willing, you will be my brother-in-law!"
After hearing this, Chen Ke smiled and said: "Brother Gu, I recognize you as my friend, but I'm afraid your sister won't recognize this brother-in-law. I'm the one who's got the upper hand, and I'm already guilty, so maybe I'll get rid of it." Kill it, it’s better not to mention it again.”
Chen Ke walked aside, glanced at Gu Lanshui, and said: "As for the baby kiss, it's just a joke, why take it seriously, forget it."
"Oh... okay."
Gu Lanshui sighed quietly, secretly regretting that in Gu Lanshui's view, a kind and righteous person like Chen Ke was still valued by the Prime Minister of the dynasty, Mr. Long Tu. Even the emperor was optimistic about Chen Ke, so he was the most suitable person. brother-in-law.
It's a pity that Gu Lanshan went too far and was about to end his relationship with Chen Ke before he saw Chen Ke beheaded. Without vision, she is just a fool.
As for the banquet in the evening, Gu Lanshui said that he could send it to the house, but Chen Ke refused and sent the disappointed Gu Lanshui away, and Chen Ke returned to the room.
"Ansheng Palace, Princess Jinde!"
Chen Ke speculated about the whole conspiracy, and first sent someone to assassinate him. The assassination failed, and he left the dagger behind, using it to plot against him.
This step by step cannot be figured out in a day. The person behind this is really good at calculating.
Turning around and walking out of the room, no one from Jingzhao Mansion was guarding Chen Ke. Long Tu had already said that Chen Ke was not guilty and was just imprisoned in Jingzhao Mansion.
Chen Ke walked towards the corner of Jingzhao Mansion's outer office with clenched fists, with murderous intent in his eyes: "Since you have wronged me, I can't let you be wronged in vain."
Chen Ke smiled, looked around and climbed over the wall. Since Princess Jinde plotted against him, he would show Princess Jinde what an assassin was.
Chen Ke headed towards the princess mansion.
The leaves are falling at dusk, the autumn wind is rustling, and there are very few people who are not on the main roads.
When he came to the alley next to the princess mansion, Chen Ke took a running start and climbed up the wall in three steps. The wall was less than one foot high, and Chen Ke climbed over it as if he were climbing over a normal low wall.
Coming over easily, he saw no one around and walked quickly towards the main hall.
Having already been to the princess mansion, Chen Ke was familiar with it. At least he knew where the princess lived.
The Princess Mansion is very big, no smaller than Jingzhao Mansion. If you have never been here before, you will get lost in it even if you come in to assassinate the princess.
Chen Ke walked towards the main hall and came face to face with a guard from the princess's mansion: "What do you do?"
The guard saw that Chen Ke was dressed in ordinary clothes and did not look like someone from the princess's mansion, so he took the initiative to ask.
Chen Ke smiled and said: "I am a friend invited by the princess. I have something important to see the princess."
"The princess is having a visitor, please wait a minute, I will help you pass the message. Where is the person who brought you in? Why didn't I see it." The guard looked around and didn't see who Chen Ke came in with.
Chen Ke said: "The adult had diarrhea and went to the toilet. He asked me to wait here."
The guard had no doubt after hearing this, and he did not think that anyone would dare to assassinate the princess at this time.
The princess and Gong Si were having a secret conversation, and Chen Ke was waiting outside. There were no maids around to prevent anyone from eavesdropping on their conversation. There were only two confidant guards, but they hadn't seen Chen Ke yet.
Chen Ke clenched his fist, walked up behind the guard, and punched the back of his neck. The guard fainted on the spot.
When the other guard saw this, he was about to shout, but Chen Ke followed closely with his second punch, hitting the guard's neck. The guard fainted on the spot.
Chen Ke had been preparing for a long time, how could he give these two unsuspecting guards a chance. After two punches, the two men fell directly to the ground.
"who!"
A jade ball suddenly shot out from the room, penetrated the thick door and window, and shot directly at Chen Ke.
"when!"
The jade ball was not strong enough and failed to penetrate Chen Ke's clothes.
In order to deal with this group of practitioners, Chen Ke has put on the breastplate that can only be worn by the guards of the third-class palace.
Even so, the jade ball was set on the breastplate, which made Chen Ke feel cold in his heart. He really couldn't use common sense to infer the power of the practitioner.
The breastplate of the guard in front of the third-class palace can protect against powerful crossbows in the army!
But he almost missed a jade ball.
The door opened, and a middle-aged man in yellow-green brocade clothes came out. Next to him stood Princess Jinde, who had a white cloth wrapped around her waist.
Chen Ke looked over and saw that Princess Jinde looked relaxed and casual, not like a person who had been stabbed in the abdomen.
Is she also a practitioner?
Chen Ke had great doubts in his heart.
