Chapter 65 Arresting King Xin
The moonlight is over, and I don't realize it's time.

Inside the capital, thousands of alleys are like washing, but some people have already lit up their lights and started a new day's livelihood.

In Hulong Villa in the south of the city, Zhu Wushi was wearing a python robe and sat quietly in the main hall, with Duan Tianya and the others standing below.

Duan Tianya frowned, looked at Zhu Wushi above the throne, and said, "Father, why don't you let us intervene in tonight's battle? Those gangsters dared to break into the capital, block the roads and kill people, this is trampling my Ming law, It has already affected the stability of my Ming Dynasty, so it is under our control according to the law."

Tonight, Xichang and Jinyiwei fought bloody battles with thousands of Jianghu masters on the street, and there was a lot of commotion, and it was not far from Hulong Villa, so it was impossible for them not to know about it.

But Zhu Wushi ordered the gate of Hulong Villa to be closed tightly, and no one was allowed to intervene in this battle, which made them very puzzled.

Shangguan Haitang also frowned and said:

"Father, although we have a disagreement with Xichang, it is related to the case of the emperor falling into the water, and the enemy is those people from the rivers and lakes who often oppose the court. We should join hands to deal with them and maintain my dignity. What's more, when things happen In our Nancheng District, we have stood still, isn't it a little unruly?"

Guihai Yidao didn't speak, but he also looked at Zhu Wushi with a pair of indifferent eyes, obviously having the same doubt.

Cheng Shifei was still grinning, looking heartless, he couldn't understand what Duan Tianya and the others said for the time being, he just felt that after joining Hulong Villa, the imperial court would take care of food and housing, and he would no longer be hungry. That's pretty good.

As for the fact that the strange man who passed on his martial arts in the prison told him to give him a chance to come to Zhu Wushi for revenge, now he has figured it out.

Shenhou's martial arts are so strong that even he is no match for him. If he has a chance in the future, he will take revenge. If he doesn't have a chance, forget it. He will not take risks for a weird person whose name he doesn't even know, and he may lose his "iron" rice bowl'.

And Zhu Wushi met the gazes of Duan Tianya and others, although his expression was still majestic, but his eyes sank, and said:
"Are you questioning the king now?"

"Tianya dare not."

Duan Tianya lowered his head and cupped his hands, and said in a deep voice, "We just want to know why the foster father didn't let us participate in the South Street battle tonight?"

Guihai stared at Zhu Wushi coldly: "Also, why does Yuhuatian suspect that you are colluding with those gangsters?"

Zhu ignored him and said indifferently:
"Yuhuatian will suspect this king, it's not because of you! You have offended him before, this time he took the opportunity to suppress this king, trying to frame this king as an accomplice with those gangsters, and shake the guard The status of Longshan Villa in the court is to strengthen the prestige of Xichang."

"You are not allowed to participate in tonight's battle to suppress Xichang. The power of Xichang is too great now, and I, Ming, can no longer let eunuchs take power. Have you forgotten the harm of Wei Zhongxian ten years ago?"

"As for those thieves, they are nothing more than low-class people. Even if Yuhuatian can't deal with them, there are still hundreds of thousands of imperial guards guarding the capital. They can't make any trouble..."

Gui Hai said coldly with a sharp knife: "But the Imperial Army didn't move at all tonight, it seems that they didn't make any moves on purpose."

Zhu Wushi frowned, took a deep look at him, and said coldly:
"This is not something you should care about. What you have to do now is to improve your strength as soon as possible. I don't want to work hard to train you for more than ten years. In the end, you are not as good as an eunuch who got to the top by flattering the emperor!"

Seeing that Zhu Wushi was angry, Duan Tianya and others were silent and did not dare to say any more, but for some reason, some strange things tonight left some cracks in their hearts.

Tonight's adoptive father's arrangement contradicted his teaching philosophy of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism to them for more than ten years.

Moreover, Na Yuhuatian kept saying that his adoptive father hid the imperial convicts in private and plotted against him, which obviously meant that his adoptive father wanted to endanger the Ming Dynasty.

They suddenly don't know who to trust...

"Tap-"

At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps sounded from outside the hall.

Immediately, a spy from Hulong Mountain Villa walked in quickly and said anxiously: "My lord, the battle on the South Street is over. The people from Xichang and Jinyiwei will wipe out all those gangsters, and then the Xichangchang Gongyu will melt away." Tian, ​​took people to Prince Xin's Mansion overnight again!"

Hearing this, Zhu Wushi frowned slightly:

"He suspects that King Xin planned the emperor's fall into the water, but there is no evidence, what is he going to Xin Wang's mansion for?"

The spy shook his head: "I don't know. But not only the West Factory, but Cao Zhengchun, the governor of the East Factory, also brought people to Prince Xin's Mansion."

"Cao Zhengchun?!"

Zhu ignored the slight change in his complexion, and suddenly felt something was wrong, got up and looked in the direction of Prince Xin's Mansion, and said in a deep voice:
"Follow me over to have a look."
-
tata tao~
shhhhh~
As the night gradually dispersed, dense figures came along the street, with awe-inspiring aura, surrounding Prince Xin's Mansion.

Even on the surrounding walls, many Jinyiwei armed with crossbow arrows appeared, aiming at the Xinwang Mansion.

With such a formation, I'm afraid not even a bird can fly out.

Outside the main gate of Prince Xin's Mansion, Yu Huatian was walking slowly in the street, wearing a python robe with his waist hanging against the sky.

Yan Shisan and Ding Xiu followed beside them, one holding a sword and the other carrying a saber, majestic and majestic, like guardians on both sides.

Both sides of the gate of Prince Xin's Mansion were also surrounded by people, staring at the gate of Prince Xin's Mansion with vigilant expressions.

Yu Huatian stepped forward, looked at the closed gate, without any hesitation, and said indifferently: "Break the door and take people, and those who resist will be killed!"

"Crash-"

"Bang!!"

The crowd immediately rushed forward, smashed open the gate of Prince Xin's Mansion roughly, and then filed in with swords in hand.

"who?!"

"There are thieves, hurry up and protect the prince..."

"Ah... it's Xichang's fanzi, and Jin Yiwei!"

"Do you know where this is? How many heads do you have if you even dare to break into Prince Xin's Mansion?!"

...

The movement disturbed the guards of Prince Xin's Mansion, and a group of guards came immediately, but when they saw the clothes of Xichang and Jin Yiwei, their expressions suddenly changed, and then they scolded sternly.

"laugh--"

A flash of silvery light flashed, piercing the neck skin of the head guard.

Ding Xiu strode forward and said coldly:

"The king of Xin murdered the emperor and conspired to rebel. Our Xichang was ordered to arrest the rebels. Whoever dares to resist will be punished as the same crime and killed without mercy!"

King Xin murdered the emperor? !
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the guards changed drastically, and they dared not speak out for a while.

At this time, Zhu Youjian also heard the movement and rushed over.

He was still wearing obscene clothes, and he looked like he had just woken up, but when he saw the scene in the courtyard, his pupils shrank slightly, and then he quickly returned to normal, forcing himself to calm down, strode forward, and looked at the rain among the crowd. Huatian cupped his hands quite politely and said:
"I don't know what this king has done? Why bother Mr. Yu to make such a big scene?"

Yu Huatian calmly said: "I can't afford to be a lord, but you really don't know what happened to the lord?"

Zhu Youjian said lightly:
"I also ask Mr. Yu to speak clearly."

I really don't cry without seeing the coffin.

Yu Huatian sneered, waved his hand, and said:

"My lord forgets things a lot, and I don't know what I have done. Please remind him so that he won't be unclear."

Zhu Youjian frowned slightly, a little puzzled, but soon, his expression changed!
"Tap-"

Following the sound of crisp footsteps, four figures walked out from the crowd of Jin Yiwei.

It was Lu Wenzhao and Ding Baiying, the three masters and apprentices.

"You...you!" Zhu Youjian didn't understand what was going on at this moment, and stared at Lu Wenzhao and the others.

Lu Wenzhao looked complicated at this moment, bowed his hands to Zhu Youjian, and said:
"See the prince for a humble position."

Zhu Youjian gritted his teeth and said, "I want to know why?!"

A trace of guilt flashed across Lu Wenzhao's eyes, and he didn't answer.

"It's easy!"

Ding Baiying stepped forward and said indifferently:

"Because the lord's ideas are wrong, we can't afford to sacrifice everything for your own selfish desires."

Since Zhu Youjian asked them to kill Guo Zhen, she figured it out.

Like them, Guo Zhen is Zhu Youjian's confidant.

But in order to erase the evidence, Zhu Youjian can kill Guo Zhen without hesitation, so when it is their turn one day, Zhu Youjian will definitely not soften his heart.

She is different from Lu Wenzhao.

Lu Wenzhao turned to Zhu Youjian because of his ideals and ambitions, but she only worked for Xin Wang because of her senior brother Lu Wenzhao.

She didn't want to risk her and her senior brother's life just because King Xin wanted to be emperor, and it was still unknown whether the world would become better after King Xin became emperor.

Therefore, at the last moment, she chose to listen to her apprentice Ding Xiu's persuasion, took refuge in Xichang, and came forward to testify against Zhu Youjian.

Zhu Youjian's face was gloomy, and he stared at Lu Wenzhao and the others, killing intent flashed in his eyes, and at the same time, he felt a little regretful.

He didn't expect that he would be betrayed by the people around him in the end.

But since Lu Wenzhao and Ding Baiying appeared here, he knew that it would be useless to say more.

He looked up at Yuhuatian, and his face had returned to calm:
"Master Yu wants to handle the case. It is impossible to arrest people based on a few people's one-sided words. There should be evidence, right?"
