Chapter 461 (1/2)

”Your Majesty, this is by no means the work of your father. Who knows that your father is confused, how can you have this courage? Besides, why did your father assassinate your majesty?” there is no reason at all.

”If you say no, you don't?”

”Of course, it is not the minister has the final say, but the father is loyal to his majesty, and can never do such a thing.”

”What if?” emperor Xiao asked, ”what if King Rui did it?”

Gu Changyan lowered his eyes: ”if it was really done by the father, the minister must kill his relatives in righteousness, and then apologize to his majesty.”

Xiao Huang smiled: ”then you should remember what you said.”

”Your Majesty.” at this time, Chu Xi, standing beside the fourth prince, suddenly opened her mouth and said with a smile, ”my daughter-in-law thinks that this matter has nothing to do with Gu Shizi!”

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience's eyes fell on Chu Xi.

The fourth Prince's face changed slightly: ”Xi'er, shut up, what do you know!”

He wanted to save Gu Changyan, but not now.

”Father, Xi'er, a woman in the backyard, doesn't understand anything at all. I hope your majesty will forgive her rashness for the sake of her courtiers.”

The fourth prince was sweating anxiously for fear that Xiao Huang would blame Chu Xi.

Chu Xi didn't expect that the fourth prince would interrupt himself, and a touch of anger crossed her eyes.

People with a clear eye know that what happened tonight is from Gu Shizi. Xiao Yide is good. He keeps saying that Gu Changyan is his military division. What's the result? At present, something happened to Gu Changyan. Xiao Yide gave up Gu Changyan in order to protect himself. In the past, he only thought Xiao Yide had no brain and was a fool. Today he knows that he is so powerful!

Chu Xi really wronged Xiao Yide. No one knows more about his father's temperament than him. Gu Changyan was too impatient and jumped out. Xiao Huang was too suspicious. He naturally wanted to kill Gu Changyan. If he begged again, he would naturally annoy his father. Not only can he not help Gu Changyan, but also harm him. The only way is not to say anything first and discuss it carefully tonight.

But Chu Xi didn't know Xiao Yide's good intentions. As soon as she saw that Gu Changyan was deeply involved, she was anxious and wanted to excuse Gu Changyan.

After a moment of silence, only the faint voice of the Xiao emperor sounded, ”you say.”

”Father! Xi'er, she -”

”You shut up.” emperor Xiao's turbid eyes were a little violent. ”I'm asking her, what are you talking about!”

Chu Xi hurriedly said, ”back to your majesty, my daughter-in-law thinks the assassination doesn't care about the son of God.”

”Oh?” asked emperor Xiao, ”how can you see it?”

”Please listen to your daughter-in-law slowly. First of all, everyone knows that Gu Shizi is deeply loved by your majesty. King Rui has only Gu Shizi, who is naturally loved in every way. Moreover, in the future, Prince Rui's house will depend on Gu Shizi. How can King Rui delay Gu Shizi's retreat at this juncture? You know, assassination is a capital crime involving nine families. Where does Gu Shizi have the courage ”Secondly, although King Rui is the king, he can...” Chu Xi coughed softly, ”the capital knows that King Rui is fooling around and has long been hollowed out by wine and meat. Where can there be such a strategy.”

Xiao Huang picked his eyebrow: ”according to your opinion, this has nothing to do with Prince Rui's house?”

”The father misunderstood his son's meaning. It has nothing to do with Gu Shizi, but Prince Rui's house...” Chu Xi dared not say anything about it. After all, she knew Gu Shizi's ambition. Besides, according to Xiao Yide, King Rui was not as cowardly as he seemed and only indulged in wine and sex. Therefore, when Emperor Xiao asked, she left room in case the assassin really had something to do with King Rui, She could still leave herself a way back, so she turned her voice, ”Your Majesty can find out whether this matter has anything to do with Prince Rui's house.”

Emperor Xiao suddenly smiled and said, ”I understand. You're pleading for Gu Shizi.”

I don't know why, Chu Xi's heart jumped at the penetrating eyes of emperor Xiao, as if all her secrets were exposed under the eyelids of emperor Xiao.

Chu Xi was about to speak when he heard emperor Xiao say, ”I used to know that Lao Si and Gu Changyan had a good relationship. Today I know that their relationship is more than good.”

The meaning of this remark was so much that people present changed their faces one after another.

Chu Zhi took a veil to cover his mouth, smiled secretly, and then recovered a quiet appearance.

Chu Xi is really affectionate. In order to excuse Gu's long banquet, she even did so. She didn't hesitate to pull the fourth prince into the water. Should she say that Chu Xi is smart or stupid!

Hearing Xiao Huang's question, Chu Xi smiled and pointed out: ”my son didn't plead with anyone, just didn't want the real murderer to go unpunished.”

”Listen to you, do you know who the murderer is?”

”I can't guarantee it either.” Chu Xi smiled and turned her head to Chu Zhi, ”what's the situation? I have to ask the imperial concubine to explain one or two.”

Yes, that's Chu Xi's purpose.

Her plea for Gu Changyan is only one of them. Her real purpose is to burn the war to Chu Zhi.

Chu Zhi, who had been standing in the corner to eat melons, was given a cold arrow by Chu Xi. Her eyes were slightly cold and opened slowly.

”What does concubine Chu mean?”

”Just before the dancer came on the stage, the princess quietly left. Before leaving, the dancer disguised as the assassin was looking at you, and you looked back at him. Shortly after you left, the dancer assassinated your father. It was not until the assassin caught you that she came late. Just now there was a mess in the hall. Everyone heard the news and came, but there was no trace of the princess. Dare you say this is the same Have nothing to do with you? ”Chu Xi smiled gently, but her words were like poison tongue.” if I guessed correctly, the imperial concubine just left the table to deliver the letter and deal with the handle at the same time? ”
