Douluo: Catch Zhu Zhuqing at the beginning

Chapter 49 The Emperor's Mind (Ask for a Monthly Ticket!)

boom!
A fist hit the table hard.

"Davis is dead! He died in my Xingluo Royal Academy! How dare that thief be so bold!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall lowered their heads silently, without saying a word.

Although the speaker was speaking angry words, there was not much expression on his face, just a cold face.

In other words, he has long been accustomed to not showing his emotions.

He is the emperor of this star - Dai Yi! (Did the name of the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire appear in the original work? I couldn’t find it, so let’s call it this for now.)
After the two of Davis died, the person Jiang Qianhai felt was him.

Earlier Davis came to him and begged him to help Zhu Zhuyun leave a backhand. If Zhu Zhuyun died, this backhand would be discovered in an instant.

He didn't know why at first, he never thought that someone would dare to assassinate the prince in the imperial capital!

The one who killed the eldest prince Davis who had the most hope of becoming the prince!

Of course, he was not angry that his son died, but that that man dared to kill people in the imperial capital!
You know, killing an ordinary person in the imperial capital is slapping him in the face, let alone a prince?

If the murderer can't be found, his royal family's face will be ruined. At that time, what else can he use to control the empire?
Even if no one dares to say anything on the face, they will definitely get stabbed in the back!
If someone can kill the prince in the imperial capital without being caught, will their emperor be assassinated sometime?
This is not to mention those nobles, they will definitely secretly condemn the incompetence of the royal family, and even have thoughts that they shouldn't have.

Dai Yi glanced coldly at the courtiers, and had expected this scene.

He didn't do any useless work, just ordered a courtier at random.

"Go and call the head of the Zhu family!"

"Yes!"

The man bowed, and then heaved a sigh of relief after turning around.

He had never felt that kind of atmosphere since he took office, and he was really flustered.

Dai Yi saw this man's performance in his eyes, and didn't express it, as if he didn't see it.

"The murderer must be found, and he must be found quickly, otherwise, what is the majesty of the royal family?" Dai Yi looked down at the officials: "I will reward anyone who can provide clues to the murderer!"

The people in the audience looked at each other in blank dismay, and no one stood up for a while.

"Vice President, this happened not long after you left. Tell me, has the First Prince provoked any enemies recently?"

The vice president of the plant martial spirit who fought against Davis before had a bitter expression, and he was just a training partner. Who knows what enemies the eldest prince has?
Isn't this embarrassing him?

But he had no choice but to step forward: "Go back to Your Majesty. At that time, I was summoned by Your Majesty, so I don't know the clue."

"Go back."

Dai Yi remained expressionless, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.

"The head of the Zhu family has arrived!"

"See Your Majesty!"

The head of the Zhu family, dressed in black heavy armor, came to the ministers, and then began to salute.

"Aiqing is flat, do you know why I summoned you?"

"I don't know."

"Your eldest daughter is dead."

The Patriarch of the Zhu family was shocked, with an expression of disbelief.

"Zhuyun died? How did he die?"

"It was burned to ashes by the assassin, and the eldest prince was also killed in this attack." Dai Yi looked at the face of the head of the Zhu family: "Does Ai Qing know the news of the murderer?"

The head of the Zhu family quickly lowered his head: "I don't know."

"No, I think you know."

Dai Yi showed a smile on his face, looking inexplicable.

The Patriarch of Zhu's family turned his mind quickly, and looked up at Dai Yi's expression, and his heart skipped a beat.

He got it!

The point this time is not to find the murderer at all!
Although his daughter's death made him a little sad, it didn't seem to matter now.

The head of the Zhu family considered his words, and then said:

"Returning to Your Majesty, I suddenly remembered that I seem to have some impressions, which may be a clue."

The smile on Dai Yi's face was somewhat real: "Please tell me, Ai Qing!"

"The minister did not catch a few travelers a few days ago, suspected to be spies from the enemy country. I don't know if it is related to the assassination of the prince today."

"Oh? Did you know which country's spy it is?"

Hearing the emperor's further question, the Patriarch of Zhu's family thought that sure enough, he was going in the right direction.

"Return to Your Majesty, the interrogation came out, most of those people were sent by the Heaven Dou Empire, their purpose is unknown."

"Hmph! What a Heaven Dou Empire!" The Star Luo Empire shook his sleeves angrily: "With so many spies, they must have prepared for today's assassination! If you don't ask for an explanation for assassinating the crown prince of our country, our planet What face does Luo have to call himself an empire!"

The courtiers looked at each other again.

Courtier A: Is this really the case?
Courtier B: What Your Majesty says is what it is. Is the truth important?
Courtier C: You idiot, you're still in a daze!
Courtier B was taken aback for a moment, and looked around, all he could see were those who complained about the Heaven Dou Empire. Some said that Xing Luo had been suffering from Tian Dou for a long time, and others said that when Heaven Dou died, my heart of Xing Luo would never die, and he was ambitious. It's obvious!
"I have seen and heard the sufferings of all my lovers. I will definitely seek justice for us, Xingluo, if we fought against the great empire that day and did such a villain's deeds!"

"But it's getting late, I think all the lovers are tired, let's retire today."

Everyone says yes.

"Patriarch Zhu stays."

······
The officials withdrew, and only Dai Yi and the head of the Zhu family were left in the hall.

In the silence, the Patriarch of the Zhu family spoke first: "I don't know what His Majesty wants me to do?"

Dai Yi sighed, walked to the head of the Zhu family, and patted his shoulder sadly.

"Do you think I'm too cold-blooded?"

The Patriarch of the Zhu family expressed no expression: "No, I know that what His Majesty does is for the sake of the empire."

"Look, you're all sullen, don't you think I'm cold-blooded?" Dai Yi seemed to take off his disguise: "My son is dead, and I know how you feel, but in my position, I have to put my son and daughter to death." Forget personal affairs, if you want to hate me, then do so."

"It is possible to quietly assassinate a prince in such a heavily guarded place in Xingluo City. Even under my protection, the other party can escape safely without even catching the shadow. Do you know how difficult it is?"

The head of the Zhu family pursed his lips: "Chen, I can't do it."

Dai Yi shook his head: "Not only you can't do it, but I can't do it either. The opponent's strength is probably higher than mine."

"Is there no clue at all?"

The head of the Zhu family frowned and asked.

"The assassin's martial spirit is related to fire."

"Gone?"

"Gone."

Dai Yi shook his head, he didn't want to talk about this sad matter, so he skipped the topic directly.

"Do you have any other questions?"

The Patriarch of Zhu's eyes flashed: "Your Majesty, are we going to fight Tiandou?"

Dai Yi laughed: "Do you think so too?"

But then his tone changed: "Of course not, Tiandou and we are on equal footing, and it would be of no benefit to anyone to start a war."

"Then why..."

Dai Yi's face suddenly turned cold: "For self-protection! Let's try to see if Tiandou Empire has also noticed that Wuhundian is too ambitious!"
