“The second prince, the queen’s youngest son!
It is said that he was smart and smart since childhood and was loved by civil servants. Just because he loved literature and abandoned martial arts since childhood, he was disliked by Emperor Xuyang!
But I’m afraid everyone has got it wrong!
Not only did Emperor Xu Yang not dislike this son, but he loved him the most.
Even...even if he makes a big mistake, he may not be punished with death! "
Duke Guo of Qin sighed and said leisurely.
At this time, the murderous intention in him had dissipated, and all he had was a sense of disappointment.
Liu Xin got off the desk and came to Qin Guogong's side.
In fact, he could feel that Duke Qin really valued him and supported him in every way.
But, some things just happen.
"Qin Guogong, I..."
Just as Liu Xing was about to speak, he was interrupted by Qin Guogong raising his hand.
"Liu Xin, I always thought you would be my successor.
I'm always good at judging people! "
Someone sees it better than me.
Duke Guo of Qin paused and added something in his mind. He looked at Liu Xinda:
"It's a pity that you are still too young!
The emperor's son was not killed by anyone who wanted to. Even if he committed heinous crimes, the final power of life and death was still in the hands of the emperor.
No one can rob the emperor of this right!
Otherwise, no matter what your purpose is, you will be regarded as a thorn in the emperor's side and a thorn in the flesh! "
Qin Guogong's tone was extremely deep.
"Qin Guogong, do you know something?"
Liu Xin heard some other meanings from the other party's words.
Duke Guo of Qin took a deep look at Liu Xin and said nothing more.
There are some secrets that Liu Xin is not qualified to know yet.
Of course, I won’t be qualified to know in the future.
Duke Guo of Qin sighed deeply again, he didn't expect such a good young talent to be ruined like this.
But the next moment he was startled by Liu Xin's words.
"Does Duke Qin also know that the second prince is involved in this rebellion?"
Duke Qin looked at Liu Xin in disbelief.
"How did you know?"
Did anyone else reveal this news to him?
This was the thought in Qin Guogong's mind at this time.
It was also the only idea that he thought made sense.
Only five people in the entire court knew about the second prince.
But apart from him, the others have nothing to do with Liu Xin.
Could it be that Liu Xin guessed it on his own?
Or did he get some information when he killed the second prince?
"Qin Guogong, I think you need to take a look at this thing."
As he spoke, Liu Xin handed a crumpled piece of paper to Qin Guogong.
Qin Guogong took it and opened it, and an inexplicable look suddenly appeared in his eyes.
I don’t know if it’s surprise or anxiety.
Liu Xin has not opened this piece of paper since he found it.
As soon as he found the piece of paper from the rafter, Duke Guo of Qin appeared.
Along with Qin Guogong, there was also an attribute frame.
[Congratulations on completing the current node task.

Because of the appearance of the attribute box, Liu Xin didn't need to open the note to know that the person behind the scenes was the Minister of Rites!
Holding such a high position, no wonder he can stir up the turmoil in the imperial capital.
Duke Qin raised his head and looked at Liu Xin.
"Have you read this note?"
Liu Xin shook his head.
“I just found this note in the rafters and you showed up.
Because why was this note crumpled into this shape and thrown on the rafters.
It is estimated that someone was furious here at that time, and then crumpled this paper or many such papers into a ball, and finally raised it in the air like a vent!
Only in this way can it be explained. "
Duke Qin nodded subconsciously.
After reading the contents on this piece of paper, this person must have been in a very bad mood at that time.
It is indeed in line with what Liu Xin said.
And it doesn't matter if Liu Xin has read this piece of paper.
With this piece of paper, Qin Guogong is actually equivalent to getting clear evidence.
If the Minister of Rites still dares to show up, he can use this evidence to arrest him. The other party has nothing to deny, and this note also involves the second prince.
This piece of paper also became evidence that the second prince had committed a heinous crime.
Thinking of this, Duke Qin looked at Liu Xin.
If it weren't for the second prince's status as a prince, if it weren't for the fact that he was the prince whom His Majesty loved the most.
Maybe this piece of paper can save Liu Xin.
"You go to Jianghu!"
After being silent for a long time, Qin Guogong suddenly said to Liu Xinda.
Liu Xin was a little surprised. For such a serious crime, Qin Guogong didn't even think about questioning himself?
Also, what does it mean to go to Jianghu?
"Qin Guogong, what do you mean?"
"I said it before.
This is the second prince after all.
He is the prince whom Your Majesty loves the most.
Now he has been beheaded by you, even though he did commit a heinous crime.
But don’t guess what the emperor is thinking. "
"Well……"
Liu Xin didn't expect that Qin Guogong could still play tricks at this moment.
"The emperor was so angry that he laid his body thousands of miles away.
Some things are not right or wrong in front of the emperor.
You will definitely not be able to cover up this matter, and I will definitely report it to the emperor.
But I also don’t want your life to be in vain.
To me, your life is far more important than this useless second prince. "
Liu Xin did not expect that Qin Guogong would think so highly of him.
After all, he was a prince.
"Actually, I also had a mission here, and I needed to send someone to the world.
But I kept thinking that there was no suitable candidate.
If something like this hadn't happened to you, I might never have let you go.
But this is the only way that can save you now.
Of course, I know that even if the real emperor wants to kill you, you are sure to be able to escape.
But once you get to that point, you will never be able to return to the court.
So you think about it, whether you are willing to go to Jianghu.
It shouldn't be difficult for you to get to and from anywhere. "
Liu Xin thought about what Duke Qin said.
That seems to be the case.
As Qin Guogong said, if he is captured in his current situation, it is very likely that the emperor will pursue him out of anger.
And he must run away.
Of course he couldn't leave his name here.
For a second prince who sparked a rebellion.
But what should the Holy Sect do once he escapes?
Could it be because he was implicated in the Holy Sect?
Thinking of this, Liu Xin asked.
"Qin Guogong, if I accept your mission to go to Jianghu.
Then what's behind me..."
Before Liu Xin finished speaking, Qin Guogong already knew what he meant.
There are some things that everyone knows but remains silent about.
Qin Guogong did not intend to reveal all the details at this time.
“If you promise me to do that mission, I won’t be the only one who will protect you.
Because that mission was not my own mission.
With that person's help, the emperor shouldn't be so determined to kill you to vent his anger.
But if you want to come back, you must at least make some achievements.
And it will take at least a few years for the emperor to calm down.
Or when the emperor needs you by some chance.
By that time, he probably won't be angry with you because of this little thing. "
Liu Xin always felt that what Qin Guogong said was not that simple.
"Qin Guogong, can I ask who the other person who issued this mission is?"
"Don't you still believe me?
That's all, it doesn't matter.
Looking for someone to perform tasks in the world, Mi Yusong, the admiral of Dongchang, was raised from the beginning.
I just added to his ideas and made a little adjustment.
As a result, this old shameless thing put this task on my head.
Fortunately, I was smarter and kicked this task back. We argued for a long time and finally decided that the two of us would jointly perform this task.
Of course, I can’t tell you the specific content of this task yet. What I need is you. Agree or not. "
"Qin Guo Gong, there are some things you know that I cannot agree to."
What Liu Xin means is that he has his bottom line.
Duke Guo of Qin nodded.
"I know you have certain requirements.
What we ask you to do is certainly not something that will embarrass you.
The main thing is to investigate some people and things! "
"I understand. As long as it doesn't violate my bottom line, I'm obliged to do so."
In fact, when Liu Xin said this, he was very grateful to Qin Guogong.
This is also the main reason why he chose to come back and confess to Qin Guogong.
If it's someone who makes him feel uneasy, he won't come back.
"Let's wait until we return to the Imperial Capital to discuss the specific matters."
Qin Guogong said that he noticed a puzzled look in Liu Xin's eyes, and he immediately explained.
“I will ask someone to arrange for you to enter the city secretly.
There are some things you need to see because you can't bring them out, so you have to venture into the city. "
After finishing speaking, Qin Guogong looked at Liu Xin with burning eyes.
This is actually a test for him. He wants to see how much Liu Xin trusts him.
Liu Xin nodded without hesitation.
Just kidding, there is a covert investigation team in the city that can help him.
On the contrary, it was Qin Guogong who let him fend for himself in the wild, which made him even more afraid.
For Qin Guogong who has a heavy cavalry, he can easily catch up with him and kill him even if he runs out with his meager skills.
Because Qin Guogong has got what he wants.
Those civil servants were all executed on the spot under his order.
Even if these people don't have conclusive evidence, they don't have any fear for Qin Guogong.
Anyway, their backstage has collapsed, so they are nothing.
Liu Xin had some understanding of Qin Guogong's decisive killing.
In contrast, Qin Guogong really has nothing to say to himself.
Soon, Duke Guo of Qin left the fortress with his heavy cavalry.
At this moment, a group of scouts hurriedly arrived from afar.
After receiving the summons from the scout, Qin Guogong's expression immediately relaxed.
"Your Majesty, they are fine.
The Marquis of Jin led 20,000 cavalry and wiped out all the rebels.
The remaining small groups of rebels are also being strangled.
His Majesty's chariot has returned to the Imperial City. "
This news was delivered by someone from the Marquis of Jin State.
The faces of several veterans suddenly showed a look of relief.
They are old and can no longer carry the knife.
If something happens to His Majesty this time, a war will definitely happen.
At that time, they couldn't go to the battlefield, and they didn't know how aggrieved they felt.
Yes, this is their true heart.
In fact, there is not much respect for the veterans like today's emperor.
If anything, it's just awe of the imperial power.
After all, Emperor Xuyang grew up under the eyes of these veterans.
General Qin even peed on Emperor Xuyang...
After the news spread, the atmosphere within the heavy cavalry immediately became better.
It's just that the veteran didn't even see Liu Xin.
"Dong Qin, what about Liu Qian?"
"Huh? I don't know either."
The Duke of Qin replied like this.
Half an hour later, Weng Bingliang, who went out to hunt, returned without success.
But when he learned that Qin Guogong had found evidence of that person's crime, and that Liu Xin had found the evidence, Weng Bingliang smiled and said:
"The commander-in-chief has good judgment. As long as this kid wins the first place in the Zhengyang Wushu Competition, he will even get second or third place.
If the commander wanted to accept him as his disciple, no one else would say anything. "
To Wen Bingliang's surprise, Qin Guogong shook his head.
Wen Bingliang didn't know what he meant and didn't ask any more questions.
Because he saw a bad look on Qin Guogong's face.
Logically speaking, His Majesty's safety is guaranteed at this moment, and evidence of the person behind the scenes has been captured.
Based on Wen Bingliang’s understanding of Qin Guogong.
Normally at this moment, Qin Guogong should be laughing.
As an old subordinate of Qin Guogong, he knew the significance of Qin Guogong's every move.
So he remained silent.
Half a day later, because I was not in a hurry, it took me a long time to finally return to the imperial capital.
All the city gates in the imperial capital have been opened at this moment.
King Qin's army gathered outside the imperial capital.
At this moment, even if the Northern Barbarians had 100,000 cavalry heading south, there would still be enough power near the imperial capital to resist.
Duke Guo of Qin hurriedly entered the palace.
It was almost evening.
Duke Guo of Qin stayed in the palace until late at night.
From a certain hall in the palace, the emperor's angry roar and the sound of smashing were heard.
A series of not-so-good news spread from the palace.
The eldest prince rushed to the emperor's palace overnight.
But he couldn't even get through the door.
In the queen's bedroom, all the doctors from the imperial hospital appeared here.
Suddenly these situations in the palace were revealed.
The government and the public were once again plunged into various suspicions.
The matter with the rebels outside the city has only just been resolved, and it is not yet completely over.
As a result, something happened again in the palace.
According to some well-informed people.
It seems something happened to the second prince.
Because someone saw the second prince's carriage appearing at the side entrance of the palace.
On the Second Prince's bicycle frame, the bright yellow satin was replaced with white.
Although it was only a quick glance, those who were interested could already guess a lot from these traces.
However, the death of a second prince did not attract too many people's attention.
He is just a bookworm.
Maybe the civil servants would be a little disappointed, because the second prince they had so much hope for was gone.
However, there was not much regret among the civil servants.
Because those who had been really close to the second prince were all taken advantage of by Qin Guogong.
And it was a piece of news that was revealed by some thoughtful people, which completely attracted everyone's attention.
The mansion of Du Weizhong, a bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion and the Minister of Rites, was raided!
The leader of the team is Touchang Senhuhara of Dongchang.
Dai De'an of Jin Yiwei also led people to guard the perimeter.
The joint action of Dongchang and Jinyiwei also dispatched two senior officials.
The person who ransacked the house was one of the six great bachelors in the cabinet, the top minister in the court.
Such news is far more shocking than something happening to a mere prince.
Duke Guo of Qin's face was ashen, and there were several footprints on his clothes.
These were all kicked by the current emperor.
When he brought the evidence to the emperor that the second prince colluded with the Grand Scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion to create this rebellion.
The emperor roared angrily.
He even threatened to kill this bastard.
But when he learned that the second prince was dead and no longer needed to be beheaded, he became even more angry.
All the bottles and cans he had collected were smashed to pieces.
He even kicked Qin Guogong several times.
Of course, Qin Guogong's mission ends here.
Mi Yusong took over.
After all, if he wants Liu Xin to work, he has to put in some effort, right?
But Mi Yusong's actions are very methodical.
First, a piece of information was given, and these things were what Emperor Xuyang wanted to see eagerly at this moment.
They didn't hesitate to sacrifice the overall situation, not just for this information.
In the face of major issues of right and wrong, the emperor still chose to put national affairs first.
It was precisely because of his attitude that the queen cried and fainted in her bedroom.
Even though his son was gone, he still had the mind to care about national affairs.
I have to say that this is the difference between men and women.
After the emperor digested all the information, the anger in his heart towards the second prince's knowledge had actually been suppressed for a long time.
At this time, Mi Yusong still did not throw the biggest bomb in his hand.
Instead, Du Weizhong was taken out and criticized.
Then he brought out his past years of bending the law for personal gain and indulging in crimes committed in his family.
Of course, in the eyes of the emperor, these are just trivial matters.
Therefore, the emperor looked at Mi Yusong as if he were watching a funny joke.
Are you just telling me this?
However, out of trust in Mi Yusong, the emperor listened carefully.
As a result, I listened until midnight.
And Mi Yusong really keeps talking nonsense.
"That's enough, that's enough. Just let your people handle these things."
The emperor waved his hand and finally interrupted the other party.
And the implication behind the words is that only your subordinates need to know about this kind of thing. Why should you report it to me?
This is already a hint of blame.
Of course, Mi Yusong doesn't care about this.
Until this time, he still had not told Liu Xin about the serious crime he had committed.
Instead, they took Du Weizhong out and whipped his corpse.
Only this time the emperor showed a little interest.
"Okay, okay, now that we have found his whereabouts, let's capture him.
It must be alive! "
Emperor Xuyang was really excited again.
