Fish swimming around the world

The imperial court of the Great Zhou Dynasty is still majestic and majestic.

Jiang Fan couldn't help but feel filled with emotion when he thought that the cheap old man had now stepped onto the stage from behind the scenes and sat in that seat again.

All this is for yourself.

If nothing else, as a father, he is definitely qualified.

Following the announcement, Jiang Fan stepped onto the imperial steps, passed through the golden armor on both sides, and slowly entered the main hall.

At this time, the court meeting had already dispersed, and there were not many ministers in the hall, but the scene in front of him made Jiang Fan narrow his eyes slightly.

Sitting on the throne was Crown Prince Ji Zongyi, wearing a crown and a four-clawed golden dragon robe. His complexion was indeed much better, but he still looked as pale as snow compared to a normal person.

Under the imperial steps, there were some civil and military officials standing, including the ones I just saw a few days ago.

But what surprised him the most was the man kneeling on one knee at the foot of the royal steps, with thorns tied to his back.

The prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, King Ji Zongyao of England.

Seeing what he meant, he was asking for forgiveness?

Haha, that’s interesting. I don’t know if I specifically chose this time to go up the mountain, or if it was just a coincidence.

In fact, he fully understood that the King of England could have thought since Wu Feng committed suicide that since he recognized Wu Feng, his eyes would definitely be on him. He went to visit him that day, probably to test the rumors. Today, there is a high probability that it will be a performance-style apology.

In fact, he guessed it right. Ji Zongyao was really angry and couldn't figure out why Wu Feng was recognized.

Just because he didn't know that with the prince in court, Paradise City knew all about the Imperial Court of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Every important official of the Great Zhou Dynasty was recorded in detail in the Tianji Privy Palace. Wu Feng was also among them, and Jiang Fan relied on his extraordinary memory. The subtle characteristics of many important figures have been deeply engraved in his mind for a long time. Although Wu Feng was tightly wrapped, unfortunately he still could not escape his eyes.

In a short moment, Jiang Fan had a panoramic view of the main hall. With the support of two strong Dragon Eagle Guards, he knelt down next to Ji Zongyao with his hands clasped together.

"Your Majesty—Jiang Fan from Yuzhou, pays homage to His Highness the Crown Prince."

His voice was weak, and after saying this sentence, he was panting.

After two or three breaths, the prince's soft voice came from above: "Stand flat."

Jiang Fan was helped to stand up and bowed respectfully.

"The king of Zhenxi has not recovered from his illness, so he will be given a soft seat."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Jiang Fan did not refuse.

When the prince saw him sitting down, he asked with concern: "How is King Zhenxi recovering?"

Jiang Fan said hurriedly: "Thank you for your concern, Prince. Fortunately, I am fine. Now I can barely move."

The prince nodded happily, and then said with anger: "What kind of thief is so bold? Under the feet of Taiyue, he openly plots to kill an important minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is really lawless!"

At this moment, Ji Zongyao spoke with a deep voice: "It's all because of my incompetence and my incompetence in commanding the troops. My subordinate Wu Feng ignored the law and was daring to avenge his private revenge. He actually secretly colluded with Yao Chen, the leader of the Ten Fierce Bandits in Cangshan, and almost killed Zhenxi. The king’s life is at stake, and I cannot absolve myself of the blame. I sincerely request you to be severely punished.”

The prince's face turned cold immediately: "Wu Feng, you are so brave!"

Ji Zongyao said angrily: "After the defeat, this thief knew that he could not escape the power of God, so he committed suicide out of fear of crime, which gave him an advantage!"

The prince responded: "What a shame, you thief! Come here, confiscate your home and exterminate your clan!"

He was furious at this moment and was even rude to his own brother: "Ji Zongyao, as the commander of the Imperial Guard and in charge of the Dragon Guard, you didn't notice at all, what crime do you deserve!"

Ji Zongyao leaned on the ground with one arm and lowered his head: "My brother cannot escape the blame for his crime, so I came here to ask for punishment!"

Jiang Fan looked at it and thought, haha, after a month, the performance finally started. Your acting skills are so superb. I owe you two Oscars. Come on, that’s about it. You have to speak up. People are obviously waiting for you.

But Mr. Jiang didn't want to take advantage of him. He rolled his eyes and showed a look of extreme surprise on his face, even an abnormal flush.

"This, this...what? Is General Longwei colluding with the thieves? How could something like this happen? Wu Feng is the general of the Longwei Army, and he is a minister in the same palace as me, but he actually committed such a vicious attack and asked the prince to make the decision for me - —”

At the moment, it would be more troublesome for him to plead for Ji Zongyao. But this reaction is also normal and reasonable. After all, he has just encountered a life-and-death crisis, and suddenly heard about such a thing. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being shocked.

A strange light flashed across the prince's eyes, and he said angrily: "It's really hard to guard against domestic thieves! Wu Feng, the dog thief, is so bold, there must be someone behind him, come and investigate thoroughly!"

Then he stared at Ji Zongyao with an unkind look: "Imperial brother, as his superior, you cannot escape the blame for your crimes. You can tell yourself how to deal with it according to the law!"

According to the law? How to follow the law? According to the law, you should kill, but this is not possible.

Therefore, Taishi Huangfu Zhaoye coughed and spoke.

"Your Highness, I would like to say a few words about this matter..."

The prince glanced at Huangfu Zhaoye indifferently: "Oh, does the grand master know about it?"

Jiang Fan secretly laughed in his heart, this cheap man is really sharp in his words, and he asked questions like this when he came up.

Huangfu Zhaoye hurriedly said: "Of course I don't know, but this matter is indeed too important. There must be a big story behind the assassination of the prince at the foot of Taiyue Mountain. Tingwei has been tracking down the month, and there will be news in the near future. I sincerely ask Your Highness to be quiet." We will make a decision after finding out the truth.”

Ji Zongyi nodded slightly: "What the Grand Master said is reasonable, but it concerns the Dragon Guard Army. Tingwei is afraid that he does not have enough permission, so he should mobilize important ministers to participate. From what the Grand Master sees, who can take on this important task?"

Before Huangfu Zhaoye could answer, Ji Zongyao said in a deep voice: "If you trust me, I am willing to personally investigate the thief and catch the murderer, and give justice to the King of Zhenxi."

Ji Zongyi looked down and looked at him without saying anything.

Seeing this, Huangfu Zhaoye said: "Prince, the Third Prince took charge of the Dragon Guards on behalf of the Dragon Marshal, and he is to blame for this situation. Since this matter is related to the Dragon Guards, why not let the Third Prince investigate it himself, which can be regarded as a redemption."

Jiang Fan sighed in his heart. He didn't know who Huangfu Zhaoye was, but at this moment he was obviously protecting the Third Prince. Letting the thief catch the thief, the only result is to find some scapegoats to settle the matter, but the matter is of great importance, and it is inevitable to pay a certain price.

Ji Zongyi seemed to be in deep thought. At this time, Prime Minister Zhong Houde stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "I have objections."

Ji Zongyi's eyes moved, and he immediately said: "Prime Minister, please speak."

Zhong Houde's face was angry: "The King of Zhenxi of a country was assassinated at the foot of the imperial court. The person who did it was actually a general of the Dragon Guard Army. How bad! This matter must be investigated strictly, and the Third Prince is in an important position. He is not strict with his subordinates. He can't escape responsibility. How can he investigate his own family? I think, choose another important minister and investigate it thoroughly!"

As a prime minister, he was righteous and stern, and every word was reasonable. Even Huangfu Zhaoye frowned slightly for a while.

Ji Zongyi nodded slightly: "What the prime minister said is also reasonable."
