Tie Hanfeng put down the ive my rudeness”
”It's my country and my family's scandal I am sorry that it has bothered everyone”
The younger prince was still sickly in appearance but both the blood and tragedy seeot up, walked towards the door and stopped when he passed by the killer's disciple, asking, ”How about that sister and brother pair? Are they also bodyguard Ju's accomplices?”
”No, they just wanted to kill Big Belly Buddha and were used by others”
”Oh, then they're still guilty”
”No, they're not Big Belly Buddha deserved his death and the one killed him was me, not them”
The younger prince suddenly beca with his footmen
The minister felt drained by the excessive amounts of drama that had just taken place, but he was still dedicated He properly expressed his gratitude and sent the three guests away
Zhong Heng walked the Master and disciple to the north gate of the city Then, he and Tie Hanfeng politely chatted for awhile before he said, ”Brother Hanfeng, you have a good disciple The solution was far better than I expected At least this is now the Stone Country's fae their mind after they return to their country”
Tie Hanfeng grinned and this tiuised s praises 's help, what could a little kid could do?”
Zhong Heng turned to Gu Shenwei, ”Are you from the Central Plains?”
”Yes, but I was sold to the Western Regions when I was little, and eventually entered Golden Roc Castle”
”A proain in the future”
Gu Shenwei called out for Zhong Heng one !”
”Do you have anything more to say?”
”Are the sister and brother of the Xu family innocent?”
Zhong Heng revealed a smile, ”People who kill in southern Jade City are innocent in northern Jade City”
The Master and disciple retrieved the horses and sabres that they had deposited at the gate of the city and as night fell, led the horses to walk up the ood kid, you really had kept your Master in the dark this time”
”Disciple didn't dare to hide it from Master It was merely that I wasn't confident in the matter and didn't want to incriminate others”
”Why didn’t you drag the siblings of the Xu family out earlier?”
”What if they said too er? It was better not to see them”
Tie Hanfeng was stunned for a bit but quickly recovered and shook his head, unable to help revealing a faint s for a while, then seriously said, ”You do know that that bodyguard didn't need to be that rich to be Xu Yanwei's guest, don't you?”
”Yes, I do But I was sure that he killed the elder prince, so he was the 'real murderer'”
”How did you figure it out? To be honest, I also kneho killed the older prince, but I couldn’t think of those details”
”When I treated the wholewas clear The detail was not important and the truth was also not important”
Tie Hanfeng glanced at his disciple as silence lingering in the air for a long time before he said, ”From now on, I will look at you with new eyes”
Gu Shenwei thanked the patrol coh this person had his own goals, the way he taught his could be used for a lifetime
There was actually another version of the elder prince's death on his mind, a version that was closer to the truth:
The real 'Mi Gongzi' was not the bodyguard Ju, but the younger prince He wanted to seize the throne and also wanted to take away his elder brother's woman Perhaps he really liked Xu Yanwei, but the fact that he ih indicated that he had the will of a real prince and qualified for the forthco crown
Bodyguard Ju had worked himself to the bone for the two princes because he didn't want to return to his foruard and instead wanted to stay at the Jade City with his wife and children Thus, for his wife and children, he sacrificed hioat
Body guard Ju's excessive anger betrayed him when they first met In fact, he should not have shown up
That minister, even if he was deceived since the first day, ured out the truth later on He didn't have a choice At least he could take co had died
With the whole matter over, Gu Shenwei didn't want to think anys of the Xu family could escape from this misfortune
Gu Shenwei feltto the castle, but the whole ht it would The prince of the Stone Country was no longer a proble Belly Buddha was not a person who could be casually killed He was the Meng family's servant in the northern Jade City and Gu Shenwei still owed an explanation
The good neas that polices of the Xu family After they took back the silver, they found that there were two copies for the written pledge of the debt Big Belly Buddha had deceived both sides and privately e fanorant disciple
In the end, Gu Shenas punished with a forced confinement at east castle for ten days, then he was reduced to a humble house-serf at Bai Yi Yuan When he went to the southern Jade City again one month later, he found that the 'business' he had privately accepted was still not wrapped up
