Quick Travel: Cannon fodder, she always encounters yandere and paranoid people

Chapter 400: The Social Terror Princess and Her Secret Guards 24

*

The atmosphere seemed a bit solemn during the morning court session the next day. Xiao Che, wearing white clothes and looking very sad, stood where his father had been.

His eyes were a little hollow, his expression was sad, and his hands were clenched tightly.

It wasn't until that bright yellow figure appeared on the high platform that Xiao Che's eyes became slightly brighter.

The emperor, wearing a dragon robe and a crown, sat on the dragon chair above.

All the officials in the court raised their hands and bowed in salute.

"My ministers, see your Majesty."

"No courtesy, everyone loves me."

The emperor's voice came down lazily. After everyone stood up, Mr. Zheng, who was on good terms with King Jin and had private dealings with him, took the lead in bowing his hands and saying:

"Your Majesty, King Jin's team was ambushed on the way back to the city yesterday. King Jin was assassinated and his body was not found. His death was tragic. All of King Jin's confidants and subordinates were beheaded!"

Master Zheng said with an indignant look, and continued with an expression of regret for the King of Jin.

"The perpetrator also hung the head of King Jin in the countryside to frighten him. Such behavior is a blatant challenge to His Majesty's imperial power. He actually persecuted His Majesty's trusted ministers so cruelly!"

Mr. Zheng looked angry, but General Lu, who was waiting nearby and had just returned to Beijing from the border gate, looked calm.

He secretly looked back outside the hall, as if he was waiting for someone.

"I have already heard about this..."

The emperor's voice was a little softer. He wanted to yawn, but so many people below looked a little embarrassed.

I was busy reviewing memorials last night and I didn't sleep all night. I was still thinking about my daughter Xiaowu's health. I didn't know if her typhoid fever was better.

This morning's morning meeting could be said to be a rush, and he was almost exhausted.

"His Majesty!"

Xiao Che raised his head and said solemnly. He walked out of the line of ministers and knelt down in the center of the court to salute.

"My father has worked diligently for the country and the people over the years, and has never done anything harmful to nature. Now he has suffered such a disaster. I beg your Majesty to investigate this matter thoroughly and catch the murderer! In order to comfort my father's spirit in heaven!"

Xiao Che looked a little excited when he spoke. He looked at the emperor sitting above him, but the emperor did not reply immediately.

Xiao Che gritted his teeth and shouted again in a louder voice:

"emperor!"

"what?"

The emperor shuddered and woke up. He clenched his fists and pretended to cough twice to hide the fact that he had dozed off just now.

"Ahem, I also feel deeply sorry for what happened to Prince Jin..."

The emperor said, but in fact he didn't seem to have much feeling in his heart.

Mainly because he had always felt that King Jin was not too loyal, and he had always been flattering him. But because King Jin had not done anything bad in the past few years, the emperor just didn't like him very much.

However, it was really sad that King Jin and his men died tragically now. He was curious about who did this...

"Your Majesty, I will investigate this matter thoroughly with several adults from Dali Temple, and we will definitely catch the real culprit who killed King Jin and uphold the law of the country!"

Mr. Zheng said righteously, and Xiao Che on the side cast a grateful look at him.

But in fact, Mr. Zheng just wanted to use this incident to show off his face in front of the emperor. If he could catch the real culprit and make meritorious deeds, it would be possible for him to sit in a high position similar to that of King Jin.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the hall:

"You don't need to investigate anymore, I am the one who killed King Jin."

Everyone looked back and saw a tall man wearing military armor and a sword walking in from outside the hall. Behind him was a man in black.

That is Rong Jin and Bai Shu.

Rong Jin was wearing a military armor that was incompatible with the court uniforms of other ministers. The sword on his waist was eye-catching. He had long hair and a high crown, and had a solemn expression on his good-looking face.

Baizhu followed him in. He looked calm on the surface, but in fact his legs and feet were trembling.

Because this is the palace hall, they sneaked into the palace and broke in without notice, and they were single and weak. If the emperor wanted to ask someone to capture them, they would have no power to resist...

Everyone in the court was obviously stunned as they watched Rong Jin and Bai Shu walking to the hall and half-kneeling down to salute the emperor.

"I see you, Your Majesty."

Rong Jin said, the emperor looked at him blankly, and suddenly felt that this person looked inexplicably familiar.

Eh?But why does he claim to be a minister?Is he the son of one of his beloveds?

Hey, hey, hey!The emperor patted his forehead and felt that he remembered.

The handsome man kneeling below, wearing armor and wearing a sword, looks like the tall man next to Xiaowu.

"Bold! Who are you? How dare you go to court wearing armor and a sword!"

Master Zheng was the first to react and scolded Rong Jin for suddenly breaking into the court.

"emperor!"

The minister next to him shouted loudly and looked at the emperor above. Unexpectedly, the emperor didn't seem angry at all.

The emperor stared at Rong Jin closely, then frowned slightly and closed his eyes, then opened them suddenly.

"I'll see again..."

The emperor looked at Rong Jin with wide eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that it really looked like him.

But they are definitely not the same person. Xiaowu is so close to a maid, how could she be a man?What a coincidence.

"Fang, did you hear me right just now? Did you say that you are the one who killed my father?!"

Xiao Che said, looking at Rong Jin with eyes filled with hatred. He had not seen Rong Jin a few times, so he had not recognized her yet.

"Exactly."

Rong Jin said frankly, looking calmly at Xiao Che who looked vicious.

"Crazy, so crazy! Come here! Get the culprit who murdered Prince Jin into custody."

Lord Zheng pointed at Rong Jin's nose and said righteously, then he raised his hand and bowed to the emperor:

"Your Majesty, I propose that this criminal be executed on the spot!"

"Wait a minute..."

The emperor raised his hand and said, his eyes fell on the sword worn at Rong Jin's waist, and then he slowly stood up from the dragon chair.

"This sword of yours looks familiar to me, but is it the one that General Si always uses?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the court was surprised and stunned, and they all started whispering.

"Your Majesty, the sword on your waist is exactly what my father used to use during his lifetime."

Rong Jin said loudly, looking at the emperor with a pair of eyes shining like obsidian.

Suddenly, the emperor seemed to see the shadow of the late General Si.

Mr. Zheng was stunned for a moment, then curled his lips and snorted in disbelief.

"Everyone in the world knows that the Si family has no descendants. You, a sinner, dare to pretend to be the son of the general. You must be trying to get rid of the guilt of killing King Jin."

Rong Jin stared straight ahead in silence, and Master Zheng felt that he was justified.

Seeing that the emperor was still looking at the sword and had come to his senses, Mr. Zheng immediately called the guards outside the palace.

"Come here, take this criminal to the prison first. After interrogation, we will wait for His Majesty's decision!"

The two guards were about to go up and take Rong Jin and Bai Shu off, when suddenly a petite figure appeared in front of Rong Jin.

"Don't move him!"
