The Great Han Dynasty: From Feng Lang Juxu to the Eternal Emperor

Chapter 513: The assassin of the emperor,
Chang'an Avenue fell into chaos. Liu Huan immediately heard the news that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had been assassinated, and came anxiously with the imperial army.

The scholars were all controlled by the imperial army, and Liu Huan hurriedly went to see Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the sedan chair.

"Father!"

Liu Huandao: "Are you okay?"

Seeing that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was intact, Liu Huan was relieved.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty looked livid and sullen, and roared angrily: "Arrest all these scholars and take them to the Ministry of Punishment!"

"Have you caught the person who assassinated me just now?"

Liu Huan hurriedly shouted to the outside world. After several forbidden soldiers came over, they all shook their heads.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty snorted and said: "Catch me no matter what!"

"Go back to the palace!"

"Here!"

Today he planned to go to Wuliang Taoist Temple to participate in the prayer ceremony, but he is not going now.

Along the way, Liu Huan looked extremely worried.

The fact that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty left the palace to participate in the blessing ceremony was kept secret. Who would know about these things?
Who leaked the secret?

How did those scholars know?
And who was the scholar who assassinated Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty? Was he a real scholar? Why assassinate Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty?
Will Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty doubt Gongsun Qing?
Everything seems to be a layer of fog, making it unclear what is going on, but Liu Huan knows that someone may be in trouble, and this matter will never be ignored.

Sure enough, when he arrived at the Qilin Hall, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked sternly: "I went to the Wuliang Taoist Temple to know that very few people knew about this!"

"Who revealed it?"

The only people who knew that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty went to Wuliang Taoist Temple to pray for blessings today were senior officials from the three provinces and six departments of the imperial court, as well as senior officials from the Detective Department.

There must be no problem with Qi Bin. Neither Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty nor Liu Huan would suspect the Detective Department.

That leaves only the senior officials from the three provinces and six ministries, and... Gongsun Qing!

"Find out for me, find out who revealed my whereabouts!"

"besides!"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty clenched his fists and said angrily: "Who is the scholar who assassinated me today? Go and interrogate the captured scholars yourself!"

"You must ask!"

Liu Huan nodded and said, "Okay! I'll go do some work now."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is still angry. How dare these unruly people murder me?
I went to Wuliang Taoist Temple to pray for blessings, wasn’t it for their own good?
Liu Huan came to the Ministry of Punishment with a solemn expression. The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment looked worried. The prison was simply not enough to hold so many people. He also arranged for so many scholars to be imprisoned in the county government office of Chang'an Sanfu and the prison of the Detective Department.

With so many scholars imprisoned, the pressure from public opinion was too great for him to withstand.

Seeing Liu Huan's arrival, the Minister of Punishment hurriedly asked: "Your Highness, what should we do with these scholars?"

"Now there are thousands of people standing outside every day asking the Ministry of Punishment to release him. I... can't stand the pressure!"

"Furthermore, these scholars did not participate in the assassination of His Majesty. Imprisoning them is really a sign that the law has collapsed!"

Liu Huan nodded, pressed his hands and said, "I know, don't worry yet."

"Please help me ask two things. Who told them that His Majesty is going to Wuliang Taoist Temple today."

"Second, who was the scholar who assassinated His Majesty?"

"If anyone knows about it, give them high-ranking officials generous rewards, money, and silk to induce them!"

"be quick."

"Your Majesty has a fire in Weiyang Palace. You must ask about it today. I am waiting for you at the Ministry of Punishment." The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment clasped his fists and said, "Here! I will go on errands now."

Liu Huan sat in the duty room of the official of the Ministry of Justice with a serious face, waiting quietly for the Minister of the Ministry of Justice.

From morning until evening, when the lamp was turned on, the Minister of Punishment came dragging his tired body. Liu Huan stood up suddenly and said, "How about it!"

The Minister of the Ministry of Justice took a sip of tea, swallowed hard, and said with a dry mouth: "Wei Chen asked for a long time, and finally caught the person at the source. The scholar at the source told me that it was a fortune teller Taoist priest who told me His Majesty is leaving the palace today."

"Taoist priest?"

Liu Huan looked stunned and said in shock: "Are you sure? Could the other party be lying?"

The Minister of Punishment shook his head and said: "I will definitely not lie. I used all means, and even used the method of interrogating the former prince with dripping water."

"No one can bear it. The other party is not lying."

Is it really Gongsun Qing?
What is he going to do? !

Liu Huan suppressed the anger in his heart and continued to ask the Minister of Punishment: "Who was the scholar who assassinated His Majesty?"

The Minister of Punishment said with a sad look on his face: "It was also found out that he is a student of Dade, named Wang Zhen."

Liu Huan breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he knew who the person was, it would be easier. He could also communicate with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He immediately said to the Minister of Punishment: "I know, you can go and rest."

"Thank you, His Highness King Jiaodong."

Liu Huan narrowed his eyes and led a group of forbidden troops directly to Wuliang Taoist Temple. He ordered the forbidden troops to surround the Taoist temple, and then walked quickly to the middle hall of the Taoist temple.

He immediately asked Gongsun Qing, "Did you do it?"

"Did you reveal to the public that His Majesty is coming to pray today?"

Gongsun Qing had already known what happened today, and said with a frightened look on his face: "Your Highness! Pindao is not a fool. How could Pindao be so stupid for such a serious crime of decapitating a clan?"

Liu Huan said coldly: "The Ministry of Punishment found out and said that a Taoist priest informed the scholar that His Majesty will come to Wuliang Taoist Temple today."

"Who else is it if it's not you?"

Gongsun Qing said with a mournful face: "Your Highness! It's unfair! It's really unfair!"

"I can't argue with you, I've never done anything like this!"

Liu Huan stared at Gongsun Qing seriously and saw that he didn't look like he was lying.

Liu Huan could not lose Gongsun Qing as a chess piece. Only with him could Liu Huan control Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Therefore, regardless of whether Gongsun Qing did it or not, he could not let anything happen to Gongsun Qing.

"You come into the palace with me!"

"I will go to His Majesty first to plead for mercy. As for what His Majesty thinks, I don't know."

Gongsun Qing said nervously: "Your Majesty, your Majesty is so angry now, will he kill me?"

Liu Huan said angrily: "How do I know!"

"It seems like someone is going to deal with us?"

Liu Huan squinted his eyes. These facts were too coincidental. It was impossible to say that no one would deal with them.

Weining?
But Qi Bin has been monitoring Weining, and Weining can't do these things.

Gongsun He?
Gongsun He went to see Wei Qing. Could it be that he and Wei Qing colluded to do these things?

Liu Huan thought a lot for a while, but he didn't think Gongsun He and Wei Qing would be so bold. The Detective Department monitored them closely, how could they do these things secretly?
Until now, Liu Huan had never suspected that there was a problem with the Detective Department, nor did he think that there would be a problem with the Detective Department!
Liu Huan didn't think about these things for the time being. He knew that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was still waiting in Weiyang Palace, so he took Gongsun Qing and walked towards Weiyang Palace anxiously!

It was late at night, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was still sitting cross-legged in the Qilin Hall of Weiyang Palace, waiting for Liu Huan's report!
