The prince of heaven only wants salted fish

Li Yuzhi was stunned: "Not dead? How is that possible?!"

"How is it impossible?" Li Heng looked at his son coldly, "Everything in the world is subject to change. Are you so sure that an assassin can kill Li Ji?"

"Think twice before you act. Where did you remember what I taught you?" He looked angrily, "The assassin sneaked into Li Ji's bedroom. Not only did he not kill him, but he ended up there himself - this is what you said." Take that step completely'?"

Li Yuzhi was shocked and said: "The assassin is dead?"

He quickly asked: "How did you die?"

Li Heng became even more angry when he mentioned this: "I would also like to know!"

"When I received the report and rushed over, I saw the assassin lying dead not far from the dragon bed. He was dead with a dagger stuck in his chest." Thinking of the scene he saw at that time, Li Heng still felt a little suspicious, "He... The posture of holding the dagger in one hand is very strange. "

"And according to what the guards said, the assassin sneaked in from the top of the palace, and all the palace servants inside the dormitory were also brought down in advance - you should have done this, right?"

Li Yuzhi nodded and said: "I have done some tricks in the food of these palace people. They are usually fine, but if they inhale the incense in the little emperor's chamber again, they will gradually become sleepy and fall into coma."

——In addition to today's palace banquet, most of the palace people are busy at Baofu Hall, and there are fewer manpower available in the emperor's chamber. If the assassin sneaks in, the possibility of being discovered will be minimized.

Everyone knew this kind of calculation, so Li Yuzhi did not explain too much, but asked anxiously: "Father, what happens next?"

The assassin he selected was extremely skilled, so why did he die inexplicably?

Li Heng said coldly: "Then I don't know what's going on - the guard guarding the door was outside the palace, and the palace servants in the palace were knocked down by your hands and feet. It stands to reason that there was only Li Ji left in the palace at that time. If there was anyone If the assassin is killed, then it’s only him.”

"But until I rushed over, he was still sick and in a coma."

So in summary, no one knows what happened at that time.

Li Yuzhi guessed: "Could it be that the little emperor is pretending to be faint?"

Li Heng glanced at him: "You think I haven't thought about it? The timing of his coma and waking up was too coincidental. I was also wondering if he was pretending, but his reaction when he woke up... didn't seem like it. He's cheating. Secondly, do you think that with his skills, he can kill the assassin so neatly?"

That kid Li Ji had grown up under his nose. Li Heng was quite aware of how much his martial arts skills were.

Li Yuzhi also knew this, and he said immediately: "Impossible! That assassin was carefully selected by me. If he fights alone, the little emperor will never be his opponent!"

Li Heng: "So now no one can tell how the assassin died - the little emperor may know, but if he is really pretending, then we, father and son, will have to be more careful in the future."

Li Yuzhi suddenly remembered something, and asked nervously: "By the way, father, how were the assassin's bodies disposed of?"

According to his original expectation, it would be fine if the little emperor died, but now not only is he not dead, if the assassin's identity is traced...

Li Heng said sarcastically: "Now that you think about it, what will you do if you are tracked down?"

Li Yuzhi's expression was stern: "This time my son was reckless..."

Li Heng snorted coldly: "Don't worry. When Li Ji woke up and saw the assassin, he was very angry and shouted that he wanted to investigate to the end. However, I have already taken care of the minister responsible for the investigation. He should know what to do."

"It's just that no matter how you talk about it, it's just a handle," he glanced at Li Yuzhi, "I hope you can learn some lessons and be more cautious in everything you do!"

Li Yuzhi nodded repeatedly: "Son, please remember your father's teachings!"

After he finished teaching his son, Li Heng sat down. He rubbed his brows tiredly, and there was a rare hint of worry on his already wrinkled face: "But I can't blame you completely for this matter. After all, the assassin It’s so strange to die.”

He recalled the previous scene and sighed deeply: "If someone is helping the little emperor, who is that person? How dare he?"

"What's more, I didn't get the news beforehand, so how did the other party show up in time? This is all so weird."

"I couldn't help but wonder before, could it be that there really was some supernatural power that protected Li Jie? That's why the assassin died so mysteriously..."

"Father, you are thinking too much!" Li Yuzhi immediately interrupted Li Heng, "There is no power of gods and ghosts in this world. Even if there is, aren't we also descendants of the Li family?"

He said with emotion: "Then Li Ji is the late emperor's only child, and they are the direct descendants of the Li family. Do we deserve that we, the descendants of the branch, will never get ahead? But you have become the regent with all the power in the world?"

"We not only have to stand out, but we also have to put pressure on their direct descendants and tell them that this great treasure position should be ours!"

Li Heng paused and was about to speak when there was a burst of anxious footsteps outside, followed by the sound of someone slamming the door anxiously: "Prince, Crown Prince, are you there? It's not good!"

When Li Yuzhi stopped talking, Li Heng frowned and said, "Come in."

A man dressed as a guard opened the door and walked in. He was a confidant that Li Heng trusted. When Li Heng saw him, his eyebrows jumped: "Why are you so panicked?"

The confidant said quickly: "Your Majesty, there was news from Lang Zhongling just now that the palace is haunted!!"

Li Heng and Li Yuzhi: "...?"

W-what the hell?

The confidant took a deep breath and then explained: "The doctor was previously appointed by His Majesty to investigate the identity of the assassin. He first took the assassin's body away, and then received your order. He was originally going to throw the body into the mass grave, and then find a scapegoat to fool the assassin's identity."

"But just when the guards were about to carry the body out of the palace, the assassin suddenly resurrected!"

When he said this, the confidant swallowed his saliva, obviously he was also quite scared.

Li Heng's temples throbbed twice: "Resurrected?"

"It's not completely resurrected," the confidant said, "It's just that the guards put the body on a stretcher and carried it out. When it was about to leave the palace gate, the body suddenly sat up by itself!"

"There were many witnesses at the time, and there were several officials working under the doctor..."

Li Heng asked: "Then what? How did they deal with it?"

The confidant almost cried: "Actually, it's not so bad if it's just a 'resurrection'. According to people at the scene, the corpse sat up inexplicably and fell down again within a few breaths. A few brave guards went up to feel the pulse and breathing, and confirmed that it was really dead. The body began to stiffen, but, but..."

Li Yuzhi said sternly: "Just what? Tell me!"

The confidant said: "Just that after all the trouble, a token fell out of the corpse's arms, and it was engraved with the emblem of our Regent Palace!"

Li Heng's heart jumped suddenly, and he turned his head Looking at Li Yuzhi: "Did you let him take the palace token?"

Li Yuzhi nodded in panic: "The guards in the palace are strict. I'm afraid he will be delayed by some checkpoints. It will be much smoother with the palace token... Father, what should we do now?"

Li Heng almost laughed out of anger: "What else can we do?"

He turned his head to look at his confidant, and said fiercely: "Go find the doctor and find a way to stop the spread of the news. On the one hand, try to find those witnesses to keep their mouths shut, and on the other hand, announce to the public that someone in the palace has defected!"

"That assassin just wants to frame us father and son!"

The confidant nodded and left quickly.

Li Yuzhi was still panicked: "How could this happen?"

At this moment, even he couldn't help thinking-Could Li Ji really have the help of ghosts and gods?

Otherwise, the assassin's inexplicable death could be someone's action, but how could this resurrection be artificial?

At this moment, the "ghost" who killed the assassin and resurrected the corpse had loosened his hand seal and retracted his hand into the quilt.

Facing the horrified eyes of the ministers in the Xuantian Mirror, His Royal Highness shrugged: "I really learned puppetry."

The thing in the sea of ​​consciousness doesn't allow him to control the living, so why not move the dead?

The concentration of spiritual energy in this small world is not very good, and the spiritual power injected into the assassin's body is also limited, which is only enough to control him to sit up and toss out the token in his arms - otherwise, let the assassin's body dance in front of the ministers to see who scares the other to death.

Ministers: "..."Facing the ministers who couldn't speak for a long time, Ji Cheng didn't want to say much to them. He turned over in bed and gradually fell asleep in accordance with the body's self-repair instinct.

Don't say it, this silk quilt is still quite comfortable.

It smells really good.

——

The little emperor is young after all. He was obviously still seriously ill before, but he will be almost healed after more than a day of rest.

On the third day, Ji Cheng got up refreshed and heard that the Regent had been dealing with "rumors" for the past two days.

In the morning court, the doctor reported his findings tremblingly - that is, someone defected from the Regent's Palace and the assassin wanted to frame the Regent.

Other ministers who heard the report had different reactions. Half of them were excited and thought that such evil thieves should be killed, and the other half were strangely silent and dared not say anything about the result. Needless to say, what they were thinking during this period.

Ji Cheng summarized the report of the doctor: "Oh, so the assassin is from the Regent's Palace."
