Chapter 175 Stupid Killer
Chapter 175 Stupid Killer
After this news came out, everyone in the imperial city was shocked.
Even the ministers in the court were shocked.
They didn't expect that it would only take two days to find the murderer in such a big case.
Moreover, the murderer's background was so powerful, he was actually the son of the emperor's personal eunuch.
Although he is not his biological son, this son is the old eunuch's favorite one.
But now he has become the murderer who assassinated the prince.
The emperor did not say what kind of grudge there was between this eunuch and Mo Rongshi.
When Mo Rongshi and Song Yunchu learned the news, they both laughed.
They had already foreseen that the emperor would find a scapegoat to cover their sins.
I originally thought that all I needed to do was find an important minister.
But I didn't expect that the person I found was the old eunuch's son.
And the most favored one.
"I guess the old lady's heart must be bleeding right now."
"Who says it's not true? But he should be punished for not doing his job properly, and he knew this result in advance."
"It's true that living with the king is like living with a tiger! My brother is really thoughtful." Mo Rongshi sighed leisurely.
He never thought about competing with his brother for the world.
Ever since his brother became emperor, he wanted to build an impregnable Xuanyue Kingdom for his brother and the royal family.
However, he did not expect that after years of fighting, he would be suspected.
They are brothers.
Even brothers are suspected of each other, let alone other people.
By now, Mo Rongshi was very disappointed with the emperor.
If necessary, he will still choose to fight back.
A day later, the eunuch was taken to Caishikou and beheaded.
There weren't many people, but there were a lot of people watching.
Mo Rongshi and Song Yunchu also stood in the crowd, ready to watch.
The eunuch was not wearing a hood. His face was very calm and his eyes were looking into the distance, as if he had accepted what was going to happen next.
Without any extra words or unexpected circumstances, the eunuch's head was cut off with a sharp knife and fell to the ground.
After seeing this, Mo Rongshi suddenly lost interest.
When I was playing in the mansion in the afternoon, the old lady suddenly came to visit.
But the old eunuch had a gloomy face and there was not a trace of smile.
Although it was just verbal words, the old lady still told Mo Rongshi what the emperor said.
"Brother, the murderer who assassinated you this time has been found. He was beheaded just two days ago. I hope you can adjust your mentality and continue to fight for Xuanyue Kingdom."
After hearing the emperor's oral order, Mo Rongshi smiled and said nothing.
The old lady looked gloomy, as if she didn't want to stay here any longer. After she finished speaking, she left without even saying hello.
After all, it was his most beloved son who had to take the blame. The old eunuch's heart was still bleeding.
The people he had trained for more than 20 years were used as scapegoats.
No one will be in a good mood.
After the old eunuch left, the two men had no other thoughts and continued to play leisurely.
At this moment, the little prince was already preparing to start his plan with his men.
He decided to put on a big show.
Since the murderer who assassinated Mo Rong before has been found, he can still arrange a murderer now.
It’s just that the killer was not hired by the emperor, but by the little prince himself.
He wanted the murderer he found to disguise himself as being sent by the Emperor, and then assassinate Mo Rongshi.
If things succeed, then he can complete the task assigned to him by his father.
If the plan fails, he can also take the opportunity to shift the blame and put the blame on the emperor.
The little prince felt very smart for killing two birds with one stone.
Moreover, he could take advantage of the night outing to go near Mo Rongshi.
If he fails, he can still pretend to discover the murderer and save Mo Rongshi's life.
In this case, his plan would be perfect.
Waiting for the night to fall, there was no moon in the sky, only the chirping of insects.
There was just a breeze blowing through the leaves, causing them to sway gently.
Mo Rongshi and Song Yunchu were enjoying the cool air in the yard.
And Tiexue was guarding the road not far from the gate.
At this moment, her eyes suddenly lit up.
As he scanned the area, he saw two men in black sneaking outside the wall and preparing to climb over it.
Seeing the actions of these two people, she went straight to Song Yunchu and told him the news.
When he learned that another murderer was coming to assassinate Mo Rong, Song Yunchu smiled and told the news on the spot.
"If that's the case, let's catch the turtle in the jar."
"Our defenses here are already strong, so let's talk about it if the two of them can get in."
Things turned out just as Mo Rongshi had expected. As soon as the two murderers climbed over the wall and landed on the ground, they were surrounded by a large group of soldiers.
They had no idea how they were exposed.
"What the hell is going on? We might as well fight now."
One of the killers was very decisive and rushed forward waving a dagger.
But the disparity in power meant there was no suspense at all, and the killer was stabbed to death by the spear.
The other killer was much more timid. Upon seeing his companion die tragically, he simply threw away the dagger in his hand and raised his hands above his head.
This group of soldiers had already received Mo Rongshi's order that if there was no resistance, they could capture the person alive and bring him to them.
The group of soldiers surrounded the killer and brought him directly to Mo Rongshi.
Mo Rongshi found it interesting to see that the killer did not commit suicide.
"A group of assassins were executed just two days ago. How come there are assassins again today? Tell me, who sent you? If you tell me, I can spare your life."
"I was sent by His Majesty."
The killer said this without any hesitation.
Hearing this, Mo Rongshi was stunned for a moment, then he laughed.
He had never seen such a stupid killer.
"You said you were sent by His Majesty. Which His Majesty?"
Mo Rongshi asked with a smile.
"It's His Majesty the Emperor of Xuanyue Kingdom." The killer didn't know why Mo Rongshi asked this, and said it subconsciously.
"That's interesting. Aren't you from Xuanyue Country?"
Song Yunchu asked with a smile.
After hearing these words, the killer finally reacted and nodded quickly.
"I am from Xuanyue Country, and I am the current emperor. Emperor Xuan asked me to assassinate you. I have explained all these things. Can you let me go?"
The killer naively thought that he could survive as long as he followed the previous script.
But he had no idea how stupid and ridiculous these words sounded to Mo Rongshi.
