The capital, the capital that has been peaceful for ten years, has happened today that shocked the government and the opposition, and Ling Yan, the king of the town, was assassinated.
How terrible it is that a generation of feudal kings was assassinated by hundreds of assassins in the heavily guarded and forbidden state of the capital.
Countless officials were so frightened that they bounced out of their chairs when they heard the news, they never imagined that someone would dare to kill the prince in the capital.
Among them, the strongest reaction was the crown prince of the East Palace.
Everyone knew that earlier today, King Zhen Shi was still talking for a long time with the prince under the prince's door.
People will always wonder if it would be because they were on the opposite side of the prince and thought that King Zhenshi was standing behind the prince, so they killed King Zhenshi in advance.
But in the East Palace, the faces of the crown prince and a group of strategists and cronies were ugly, and the outside world thought that it was someone else's hand, but it did not mean that His Majesty the Emperor would believe it.
His Majesty the Emperor may think that his son did not win over King Zhenshi, so he decided to kill King Zhenshi, at least focusing all his attention on the other princes.
Of course, His Majesty the Emperor would not necessarily be angry at his son's actions, but the Emperor would definitely wonder how those assassins had come to be, and how they had lurked into Lane Six or Seven without a word.
The Prime Minister's Mansion in the capital, the courtyard of the Prison Division, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and several fathers-in-law all stayed awake all night, how could they sleep when such a big thing happened.
On the second day, before dawn, hundreds of civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty gathered in a row of rooms under the walls of the imperial palace, and the officials who used to greet each other did not say a word.
The assassination of King Zhenshi, although it was serious, at least the person survived in the end, but behind this incident will cause countless people to be suspicious.
Hundreds of assassins entered the capital in broad daylight, and may have been in the capital all the time, but in either case, it may indicate that His Majesty the Emperor's control over the capital is not as good as before.
This is a dangerous signal, especially now that the crown prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince are all competing for that chair, this signal is undoubtedly fatal.
Therefore, the ministers are not afraid to speak, and speaking more now may attract some inexplicable power.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please enter the palace!"
The eunuchs in the palace passed the word, and the civil and military officials sorted out the court clothes and entered the center of the power of the Taizheng Kingdom, the palace.
Returning to the heart hall, the hundred officials greeted His Majesty the Emperor on the imperial chair, the hundred officials lowered their heads and did not dare to raise their heads, and everyone could feel the anger that existed under the emperor's silent appearance.
"Just kneel for me!
Think about what I do to nurture you.
The emperor didn't seem to want to talk to this group of ministers, so he opened his mouth coldly and walked away.
"The ministers are guilty!"
Baiguan was even more afraid, as a high-level official of Taizheng Kingdom, he actually watched King Zhenshi being assassinated by the capital and did not find out the slightest news in advance.
At the same time, the civil and military officials were trembling and constantly speculating about what kind of force was so powerful that they could launch such a terrifying attack through the terrifying state apparatus of the Taisho Kingdom.
The hundred officials knelt in the Guixin Palace, but His Majesty the Emperor had already returned to the Yangxin Palace, where the emperor changed into a Minghuang-colored civilian clothes, and his hair was tied in part by a gold belt.
His Majesty the Emperor sat on a soft couch with an incense burner emitting sobering smoke, and the head of the eunuch in the palace was standing respectfully on the side of the soft couch.
Chang Gonggong, the head of the eunuchs in the palace who was over fifty years old, had his hands flat, his eyes were sharp, but he was also full of awe for His Majesty the Emperor.
"Your Majesty, the Grand Director, the Prime Minister, and the Master of the Criminal Department are already waiting outside."
Eunuch Chang whispered to the emperor, who nodded, looking at the many pieces beside him, a trace of tiredness flowing from the corners of his eyes.
But this exhaustion was immediately suppressed by the emperor, who was the emperor of the most powerful country in the world at all times.
Outside the Yangxin Palace, when the prime minister of the dynasty wore a purple official mansion, the official mansion was embroidered with a fierce tiger, which was the official mansion that only the first rank of the Taizheng Imperial Court was qualified to wear.
Duan Ping, the prime minister of Dazheng Kingdom, is in his fifties, with a lock of white beard on his chin, and some gray hair on his temples, and the whole person looks ordinary.
At this moment, the prime minister was talking to a man who was even older than him, this old man was full of gray hair, pale skin, and there was not much blood at all.
The body is skinny, the height is not more than an ordinary person, and the body is wearing an all-black robe, and the clothes are embroidered with two scimitars on the chest, which looks terrifying.
The old man is Hong Luoyu, the chief of the Heavenly Supervision Division, the most terrifying spy leader in the Taizheng Kingdom, the darkest person in the world, and the camp owner of the Ghost Face Camp.
Therefore, when the old man stands in one place, there will be some dark aura around him, really like a ghost on his side.
Prime Minister Duan Ping, Chief Director of the Heavenly Supervision Division Hong Luoyu, these two people with supremacy in the Taizheng Kingdom were talking, and there was a middle-aged man standing behind the two.
This person is the secretary of the criminal department, and his status as a first-class official is terrifying enough, and no one can ignore it, but for the two people in front of him who have neglected him, Yang Sihai, the secretary of the criminal department, is very happy.
Yang Sihai understood that although he was very powerful in the court, he was still much worse than the two in front of him.
"Grand Director, Prime Minister, Lord Yang, Your Majesty declares ......," a eunuch who had delivered the decree walked out of the Yang Xin Hall and said to the three people who were standing at the pinnacle of power in the Taisho Kingdom.
In the Heart Nourishing Palace, His Majesty the Emperor was correcting the recital, regardless of the three people standing at his feet.
However, he gave the greatest treatment to the chief of the Heavenly Supervision Division.
"Give Director Hong a seat."
The eunuch brought up the chair that had already been prepared, and he could only envy the prime minister's criminal department Shangshu for such special treatment.
"Tell me, yesterday's events can be found out today to see who did it."

His Majesty the Emperor put down the piece in his hand and said to the three of them.
Hearing this, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department suddenly knelt down, "The minister is incompetent!"
The Emperor seemed dissatisfied with the result, and he turned his head to look at the Prime Minister.
"Your Majesty, two of those assassins are the eighth and ninth sons of the Sword Tomb, and the other assassins are some criminals who have been wanted by the imperial court, but the murderers behind the scenes have not yet been found."
The prime minister is indeed capable and knows a lot of things.
"Your Majesty, the assassins do have eight sons and nine sons who have not yet come out of the sword tomb, and the identity of the rest of the assassins is indeed as the prime minister said."
Before the emperor could ask him, Hong Luoyu said first.
"Sword grave?
I really got bold, thinking that by controlling a few small countries in the south, I would be able to compete with my Taizheng Kingdom.
The Emperor didn't seem surprised by the answer, but he liked it.
Because this accident will mean that he can conquer another country, so that the territory of the Taisho Kingdom will expand again. …… The emperor and several people in the Heart Cultivation Hall talked a lot, but in the end, only the prime minister and the criminal department Shangshu came out, and only the emperor and Hong Luoyu were left in the Heart Cultivation Palace.
"Sword grave?
When will the people of the Ghost Face Camp be able to act as the people of the Sword Grave?
After everyone left, His Majesty the Emperor said coldly to his closest comrades.
Hong Luoyu was not surprised that the emperor could guess everything, after all, no one would doubt the horror of the golden silk clothes.
"Tell me, why did you do that?"
It was precisely because he knew everything that His Majesty the Emperor made an unexpected choice.
"Your Majesty, the camp owner of the Killing Camp needs to take action to deter some people, otherwise I'm afraid that child will encounter more difficulties in the future."
Hearing Hong Luoyu mention the killing camp, the emperor's face also changed, but he soon recovered.
"Then there is no need for such a big battle, hundreds of assassins, you are making this capital completely chaotic."
The emperor was not pleased.
"With His Majesty here, Taisho Kingdom will never be in chaos.
Besides, some of the Sword Tomb assassins hidden in the capital are not killed earlier, and I am afraid that there will be problems in the future. ” There was silence among the monarchs and ministers for a while, and the emperor finally agreed to this approach.
Hong Luoyu left the Heart Cultivation Palace, but there was a trace of coldness in his heart, and in today's conversation all day, the emperor did not mention a word about Ling Yan.
"The Son of Heaven's family is really the most ruthless one."
The old man sighed in his heart and returned to the Heavenly Prison Division.
And as the injured Zhenshi King, Ling Yan was lying in the mansion and had not yet woken up, when the will of the palace came.
