Chapter 533 Xinyue’s Revenge (3)
Cheng Rong and Baoshang looked at each other, clasped their hands and asked Ming Gong: "My lord, the ministers did not explain who the real culprit is in the file, why did the king arbitrarily deal with the real culprit?"

"Cheng Rong, you said in the dossier that the assassin was trained by the Xirong people and has been captured, so the real culprit is the Xirong people. Why do you bother to find the real culprit?" Mingong smiled.

"But Your Majesty, the assassin is indeed from Xirong. However, during the trial, I discovered some strange details. For example, where did the camouflaged Tiger and Ben army uniform, armor, and tokens for entering and leaving the Xirong assassin come from?" Come here, if there were no spies from our army, we would definitely not be able to sneak in and commit crimes." Cheng Rong reported.

"You mean, the people of Xirong were really brought in by spies? Who are the spies? Tell me quickly!" Ming Gong said in surprise.

"I confirm that this spy must have stayed outside the pass, and has a certain relationship with the Huben Army in Hulao Pass, otherwise, he would never use such a real token to prove his identity!" Cheng Rong reported.

"Could it be that it was King Lu Chuxiu? Among the princes, he was the only one who led troops to fight outside, and his prestige was very high. But since King Lu hated the New Deal, why did he suddenly send troops back to Beijing to quell the chaos at the critical moment when the conservative faction rebelled? Could it be, King Lu thought To usurp the throne?" Mingong suddenly became suspicious and guessed to himself.

"Your Majesty, if you want to quell the rumors that are unfavorable to King Lu and further protect King Lu, then you must appoint another prince, so that King Lu cannot threaten the throne. In this way, the rumors will be extinguished!" Cheng Rong held up the imperial wat , generously offering advice.

"Well, Cheng Rong, what do you think of Li Huien as the crown prince?" Mingong asked Cheng Rong with a smile.

"Your Majesty, we can only make King Song the crown prince for the time being. After the Empress Empress has a son-in-law, then formally make the son-in-law the king. There will be a transition to the throne. Please make up your mind!" Cheng Rong persuaded.

"This?" Mingong murmured in his heart for a while.

"Your Majesty, absolutely not. I am worried that Lord Song Yan was assassinated. Someone deliberately framed His Royal Highness King Lu behind his back in an attempt to usurp the throne!" There was a general thunderbolt.

"Xiao Ruzi, who is yelling outside?" Ming Gong angrily called out to the imperial eunuch Xiao Ruzi.

"My Majesty, it is the cabinet minister Lu Kai who is asking to see you." Xiao Ruzi knelt down and reported.

"Oh? Let him in." Mingong suddenly became surprised.

At this time, Lu Kaiye, who was full of horror, knelt in front of Ming Gong, bowed three times to Ming Gong and said: "My lord, I accidentally found out today that the concubine Xin of Jiangxue Pavilion has something strange, and she is constantly in the harem. Slandering Concubine Jiang, I am worried that what Concubine Xin has done is related to a major case in the court, so I have come here to report."

"What? Lu Kai, why did Concubine Xin get involved in this matter again, you tell me, what's going on?" Mingong asked in bewilderment.

"My lord, when I was handling the case with Lord Cheng Rong, I always thought that only His Royal Highness King Lu could provide the border badge and the armor of the tiger army on the assassin. It's the concubine Xin of the harem." Lu Kai muttered.

"Nonsense, Concubine Xin is just a woman, how can she use tokens and armor to frame her?" Ming Gong suddenly raged.

"Your Majesty, don't forget that when General Diggu was guarding the border, Xin" Lu Kai said halfway, then suddenly stopped.

"Speak! Go on, don't stop without orders from widows!" Seeing Lu Kai hesitating, Ming Gong became even more angry.

"Xinyue used to serve as a concubine in the army with General Jue Tu, and had a lot of contacts with the soldiers under Jue Tu. Later, all the soldiers at the border were incorporated into the Huben Army." Lu Kai rolled his eyes and said catchy.

"Then this does not prove that Concubine Xin is the culprit in this matter." Mingong gave Lu Kai a white look.

"My Majesty, if Concubine Xin has the heart, after today's Shuilong Shuren Palace summons her rightly, she will definitely sue Concubine Jiang and King Lu in front of the King!" Lu Kai resolutely reported.

"Okay, I want to see if what you Lu Kai said is true." Ming Gong glared at Lu Kai and said.

After a few hours, Minggong was about to set off in Jianjia Palace in a sedan chair, when someone suddenly reported that Concubine Xin had something to ask to see the king.

Mingong's face suddenly turned cold.
