Chapter 119
Everyone was in a state of apprehension and fear. They didn't know why the regent sent heavy troops to surround Fuyun Mountain and forbid them to enter or leave?
Rumor has it that the regent intends to rebel and claim the throne himself. Is it time to act?
At this moment, someone came from the palace.
"Prince Regent, the assassins have all been killed. Prime Minister Chu said, you can go back to the palace without worry, and the dinner is ready." This little eunuch is Fang Hai's apprentice. Carved out of the mold, it is very smooth.
"Assassin?" Both Yan Cong and Yan Hui were startled, and glanced in Qin Shiyu's direction.
Yan Jinyu didn't bother to play riddles with these people, Guoguo was hungry, "Then I will go ahead."
In the palace and at the dinner party, no one dared to mention the assassin. They greeted each other in a polite manner, and only Yan Jinyu concentrated on watching Tang Guo in his arms eating.
In the middle of the dinner party, Chu Weiran just finished dealing with the assassin and walked in calmly.
"My Majesty, these assassins have all been professionally trained. Once they are captured, they will kill themselves immediately by swallowing poison. There are no marks on their weapons or clothing, so their identities cannot be traced."
Chu Weiran's words made Yan Hun and Yan Cong beside him somewhat relieved.
The emperor nodded, and just about to let Chu Weiran take his seat, Fu Guifei suddenly said, "Chu Qing is known as the number one prime minister in the world, as famous as the sick Zhuge, I don't believe it, this small thing can stump you , if the Prime Minister has something unspeakable to hide?"
The emperor was not happy when he heard that, you found out the identity of the assassin, but you just don't want to say it?
"Ai Qing would rather hide from me than reveal the true identities of those assassins. Could it be that you are afraid of offending him because the people behind them are powerful?"
While speaking, the emperor scanned all the people present with scrutiny, except Yan Jinyu.
He was clear in his heart, if the regent really wanted to kill him, there would be no need for such a sneaky method, not to mention that he asked Zhuge Ye and his disciples to refine life-prolonging elixir several times, how could he want to kill him?
At least, not yet.
Chu Weiran's face was slightly startled, and then he knelt down on the ground with a look of shame and fear that his mind had been exposed, "I have indeed concealed something, Your Majesty is wise."
"Say." The emperor's expression was not very good. You must know that if the prime minister hadn't rushed back in time, he might really have died at the hands of those assassins.
Chu Weiran hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at the seat on the right, "There is a word 'Qin' engraved on one of the assassin's headbands."
All eyes turned to Qin Shiyu and Qin Muqing in unison.
Qin, that is the surname of West Qin.
What's more, in the early years of Western Qin Dynasty, there was indeed a custom of wearing headbands engraved with the surname of the master on the servants and hidden guards.
Qin Shiyu was very calm on the contrary, "Where is the headband? There is no basis for empty words. Does Chu Xiang want to directly put the shit bowl on the prince's head?"
Chu Weiran asked someone to bring up the headband directly, "Among the 158 assassins, only this one had engraved words on his headband, that's why it took so long."
Qin Shiyu frowned. He did indeed send people to attack Emperor Dayan in order to blame Yan Jinyu, but there were only twenty or thirty people, how could there be so many?
Thinking about it, Qin Shiyu glanced at Qin Muqing beside him, could it be that the emperor's sister did it?
Until the headband was delivered to him, Qin Shiyu looked at the writing on the inside and burst out laughing.
