Ye Jingyu turned around, raised his eyes and asked, "King Anping? Is he dead?"

Li Defu raised his orchid finger and pointed outside.

"It was General Sun Moutong who said that he died beside Tianjie. General Sun is waiting outside the palace to see the emperor."

Ye Jingyu picked up the tea cup and took a slow sip.

"Let him in."

Guan Mengting couldn't help but feel restless.

Ashlan's matter can be faked, but Sun Moutong is a member of King Anping's party, so it is impossible for him to joke about such a thing.

When he thought about the emperor inviting him to play chess, he already understood that this was not a chess game at all, but a warning.

The emperor is warning himself that he is the only one who plays chess!

And besides the emperor's secret guards, who else could kill King Anping so blatantly?

Thinking of this, Guan Mengting couldn't help but shudder.

Sun Moutong had already rolled in from the outside and crawled in. His face, which was originally black, now showed a burst of blue.

"Your Majesty, King Anping has been assassinated."

Ye Jingyu sat on the mahogany faucet chair and asked in a deep voice: "I have heard about it, what is going on?"

"I don't know what happened. I just heard a commotion outside the school grounds. When I got out, the prince was already lying in a pool of blood."

Sun Moutong's face was livid, she was worried and panicked, and she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

"waste!"

Ye Jingyu was furious and slapped his palm on the table.

"Are you all just freeloaders? You can't even protect a prince."

The tea cup on the table was knocked to the ground, and the hot tea flew down, splashing Sun Moutong in the face.

Sun Moutong grinned, but did not dare to hide, and lowered his head a little.

Ye Jingyu said coldly: "I asked you to go to Huainan County with Prince Anping. You should be responsible for protecting the prince. I didn't want you to neglect your duty. When the prince was assassinated, General Sun, what crime should you be responsible for?"

Guan Mengting on the side was also trembling with fright, always feeling that the emperor was asking questions for his own benefit.

If he sent someone to assassinate Yin Zhong at this time, wouldn't he be asking for death?

This matter must be put on hold until we find Aslan first.

Sun Moutong was trembling on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly.

Although he usually speaks freely, he is also confused when it comes to human life, especially the person who died was the prince of Zhou Dynasty. Who can not be afraid of taking responsibility.

"I know I'm guilty, I deserve to die."

Ye Jingyu glanced at him with disgust and turned his eyes to Guan Mengting.

"What did Prime Minister Guan say?"

"This……"

Guan Mengting did not dare to go too far when he thought that Sun Mutong's uncle was an official in the same court as him.

He organized his speech and said: "General Sun was unfaithful in protecting the prince and deserves to be punished. The old minister thought that he could be removed from his military post and join the army for training."

Ye Jingyu nodded.

"Then I will go online for the sake of the old Prime Minister. I will also hand this matter over to Prime Minister Guan. My younger brother was innocently killed. Those involved must be held accountable."

Guan Mengting said hurriedly: "I obey the order, I will handle this matter well."

Knowing that he only had to serve in the army and not lose his head, Sun Moutong breathed a sigh of relief and knelt down to thank him.

Ye Jingyu sighed and said, "Everyone, please go down. I will go to Prince Anping's Mansion to express my condolences."

At the same time, the palace's secret guards had arrived at Xiantian.

Everyone connected the ropes together and arrived at the foot of the misty cliff.

After several searches, several blood stains were indeed found, and the last blood stain extended all the way into a deep pool.

Live to see people, die to see corpses.

Several secret guards with good water skills immediately went into the river. After a search, they couldn't find Ashlan, and their minds couldn't help but sink.

Less than a hundred miles away from here, a group of people were rushing to the capital.

The leader was a man in his late fifties. His appearance was not old, but his hair was gray. From the hand with bulging veins, it was not difficult to tell that he was a man who practiced martial arts all year round.

Following him was a man in his twenties. The man had a handsome face and a pair of peach blossom eyes that always seemed to be smiling. He looked somewhat similar to Yin Qingxuan.

Behind them was a carriage, in which sat a woman in her thirties and a little girl of fourteen or fifteen years old. The two hugged each other tightly, with joy on their faces.

Seeing the familiar scenery, the old man couldn't help but feel excited. After waiting for more than a year, they could finally come back.

He immediately said to the driver: "Run faster."

The young man following him smiled and said: "Dad, don't worry, if you go any faster, the car will fall apart. It's not a joke to knock off the second mother and sister. Even if dad wants to see the eldest sister, he won't do it." It’s urgent at this moment.”
