The king behind the empress

Chapter 203 This King Can Do It
Mo Zizai stayed in the imperial prison, and only entered the imperial prison after all the people in the five-army governor's mansion were imprisoned and the imperial prison calmed down.

Although many dead men under Du Xing were arrested, there are still some who slipped through the net.

In order to interrogate the whereabouts of those dead men, Du Xing had already been tortured when he was interrogated, but it had no effect. After being arrested, Du Xing almost refused to say a word.

"Master Du is the Secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. I have never seen any criminal laws. Don't show off these pediatric things in front of Mr. Du."

After Mo Zizai walked into Du Xing's cell, two guards were whipping Du Xing, and Du Xing's body was dripping with blood, but he didn't seem to feel anything, if he didn't see the cold sweat dripping from his forehead Mo Zizai really thought that the whip was not on him.

"I have seen the king."

Seeing Mo Zizai coming in, the two guards who were tortured stopped quickly, and said, "Since entering the cell, Mr. Du has not said a word, and we will only be sentenced if we have no other choice."

"It's okay."

Mo Zizai waved his hand, indicating that he didn't mean to blame them, and then said: "You go down first, and let the king and Master Du have a chat alone."

After the jailer left, Mo Zizai couldn't help but shake his head slightly when he saw the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment who tried to kill him again and again, "Master Du, I have a question, I wonder if you can answer it?"

Hearing Mo Zizai's words, Du Xing opened his eyes, glanced at Mo Zizai with his bloodshot eyes, and said in an indifferent tone: "That depends on what question you are asking."

"This king wants to know, in the past three years, how many times have you assassinated this king?"

Mo Zizai moved a stool and sat in front of Du Xing, and asked, "I always think that you should assassinate me more than these two times?"

"Oh, it's really more than that."

Enduring the pain, Du Xing smiled and looked at Mo Zizai, "I have sent people to assassinate you since you entered the imperial mausoleum, probably more than 70 times."

"However, it's not all for assassinating you. Most of the time, it's just to let some disobedient people go to die. If you really want to say that it's aimed at killing you, it's only seven or eight times."

"Nima!"

Hearing the number of more than 70 times, Mo Zizai's face turned black. He has only lived in the imperial mausoleum for three years, and Du Xing has sent more than 70 killers, an average of twice a month. What a bloody hatred! !
"Lord Du, what kind of grudge does this king have against you? Why are you so persistent in trying to kill me?"

"No enmity or resentment."

Du Xing shook his head lightly, and said: "But you were born in the emperor, whether you have the appearance of an emperor or not, but the late emperor forcibly helped your majesty up to take care of you. If this is the case, the Great Zhou will be defeated!"

"Then co-author, are you still thinking about my big week?"

Mo Zizai was almost amused, "Is that why you killed me?"

"I'm not thinking of you Da Zhou, I'm thinking of the people of Da Zhou."

Speaking of this, Du Xing was a little emotional, "You are not suitable to be an emperor, and your majesty is even more dishonest. Even if she has some talent, she is always hindered in doing things."

"Coupled with her lack of courage, you can't control the situation in Dazhou now."

"So, the only plan for now is to welcome back the fourth prince. He also holds the military power in his hands. As long as he can enter the capital, the problems that Dazhou is currently encountering will naturally be solved."

"Hehe~ welcome back my fourth uncle."

Mo Zizai sneered, then looked at Du Xing seriously and said: "If this king asks him to return to the capital, can you guarantee that he won't kill me and Weiyi?"

Hearing Mo Zizai's question, Du Xing hesitated for a moment. He really wanted to say yes, but this was undoubtedly an insult to Mo Zizai's IQ, so he hesitated for a while, and directly changed the phrase, "For the sake of the people of Dazhou, personal life What else can it count?"

Hearing Du Xing's answer, Mo Zizai was speechless immediately, "You're quite happy, it's not your life that you're going to fight together, right?"

"Didn't Du's life have already been risked?"

Du Xing smiled miserably, "My son Hui was beheaded by the prince, and now I have also been arrested by the prince and sent to jail."

"Now, no one in my Du family is spared except my son Yuan, does the prince still think that I didn't risk my life?"

"Uh, that's true..."

After taking the act of assassinating himself, Du Xing didn't even move his family. It was obvious that he had made a plan that he would be benevolent if he failed. From this aspect, Du Xing was really willing to let go.

It's just that just because he was able to spare it doesn't mean that he has to spare it too. He is a good prince, and he doesn't want his fourth uncle to come back and chop off his head.

"Forget it, for the sake of being so tolerant, Master Du, I won't let them torture you, just let you die quickly."

"Then thank you, my lord."

Although Du Xing can bear those punishments, but being able to bear it does not mean that he will not be in pain. It is best if he can avoid the pain of flesh and blood.

"Don't be in a hurry to thank me. As a price, it's not too much for you to hand over the list of those dead men to me."

Mo Zizai looked at Du Xing and said, "After all, once you die, their stay in the capital will be a factor of instability. It's better to let the king arrest them and restore the stability of the capital."

"Huh~"

Du Xing sneered, the reason why he was punished was because he didn't hand over the list of dead men, and now he was asked to hand over the list just because he was exempted from punishment, it didn't make sense.

"Hey, Master Du, you are making it very difficult for me to deal with this."

Mo Zizai sighed and said, "I don't want to make things difficult for you, but you want to make things difficult for me, isn't that bad?"

"If you want to kill or slash, please listen and respect."

Du Xing closed his eyes, obviously too lazy to talk to him anymore.

"Lord Du, the reason why you want to kill me is to give my fourth uncle an excuse to enter the capital so that he can become emperor and have a safe and secure life, right?"

Mo Zizai asked, and seeing that Du Xing didn't answer, he didn't care, and continued: "But now my fourth uncle doesn't have enough troops. Although he has 10,000+ frontier troops in his hands, those troops still have to guard against the northern barbarians. , cannot be easily mobilized."

"So, under the condition of ensuring the stability of the northern border, the number of troops he can mobilize is only [-] to [-], are you right?"

Hearing what Mo Zizai said, Du Xing opened his eyes with some doubts, "What does the prince want to say?"

"It's nothing." Mo Zizai said indifferently: "You said that if I say that my fourth uncle conspired against him and brought [-] Yulin troops to attack him, do you think there will be any results?"

"Um?!!!"

Du Xing looked at Mo Zizai suspiciously when he heard this, "What do you want to do? Although the Yulin Army is elite, the frontier army is not easy to mess with, not to mention that the Fourth Prince has 10,000+ people under his command, you are simply hitting a stone with an egg."

"This king knows, but this king doesn't care."

Mo Zizai nodded, and said indifferently: "After the [-] Yulin army has been defeated, how can we fight for [-] to [-] frontier troops?"

"At that time, even if the king is gone, do you think my fourth uncle still has a chance to be the emperor?"

Mo Zizai looked at Du Xing, with a smile on his calm face, "Anyway, my fourth uncle is now accumulating troops, and when he gathers up, he will come over sooner or later, and I will definitely be defeated by then."

"Since this is the case, I might as well take the initiative to attack. Even if I lose, my fourth uncle will not win. At that time, everyone will fall apart and don't be the emperor."

"Lord Du, trust me, I can do this."
