I will not be king in the Spring and Autumn Period

Chapter 23

At this moment, Ji Sunsu already knew what Li Ran was going to say next.But the other courtiers present were stupefied, and even Shu Sunbao looked at Li Ran very puzzled.

This is because he only knew Li Ran's plans for the first and second stages, but Li Ran didn't tell him about the plans for the next third stage.

Of course he didn't know why, because Li Ran didn't intend to let him know why.

The fake prince looked at the assassin on the ground, and then at the calm expression on Li Ran's face. He understood for a moment, and immediately raised his hand to signal Li Ran to continue talking.

"Hehe, do you adults want to know who is the mastermind behind arranging this person's assassination?"

"After capturing this person alive, I have already interrogated him. I brought him into the palace today, in fact, I just want to seek justice for myself."

As Li Ran said, his eyes were full of calmness and calmness, and his confident tone made the courtiers present even more puzzled for a while.

Who is behind the assassination of Li Ran?
What does it have to do with the assassination of the prince?
Could it be…

When some courtiers thought of this, the expressions on their faces suddenly became more astonished, and their eyes turned to Ji Sunsu.

That's right, everyone would take it for granted that if Ji Sunsu was the mastermind behind the assassination of Li Ran, wouldn't the person who assassinated the prince for the first time be Ji Sunsu? !

You must know that these two assassinations were carried out almost at the same time. If they were not arranged by the same person, how could it be such a coincidence?

Rao Meng Sunjie was also extremely shocked at this time, he never expected that Ji Sunsu would leave such a huge opening!

This is simply killing me!

"Now, while all the ministers are here, let's talk about it. Who is the person behind the scenes who arranged for you to assassinate me that day?"

In fact, this person, Li Ran, has already been interrogated.

Fortunately, Sun Wu rescued him that day, and Li Ran escaped safely from that alley. At that time, there were many assassins who fell on the ground, and only one or two survived.

And one of them was brought back by the person arranged by Li Ran, and died of excessive bleeding.Therefore, there is only this single seedling left.So for the past two days, this person has been under strict supervision by Sun Sushi.

Right now, as long as this person can speak, it will be a big deal.

"What? Are you afraid to speak in front of your lord?"

The assassin obviously knew that if he opened his mouth, it would be a dead end. Instead of exposing his master, he might as well bite him to death and keep his mouth shut, so that at least he could save his family's life.

These days, among warriors who come out to make a living, who doesn't have a wife and children at home?If they were not forced to make a living, why would they come out to do such a thing?If you are just wandering around alone, you can live anywhere.

Confucianism uses literature to disrupt law, while chivalry uses martial arts to ban it.

Facts have proved that no matter how great a literary hero is, once he has a family, he will eventually become a reality.

And the assassin was lying on the ground trembling now, his eyes full of fear.It seems that he can't bear the word "Xia", but at the same time, he only wants to protect his family, which is also true.

Therefore, he had no choice but to keep silent, even though he had already confessed to Li Ran the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Bold madman! How dare you despise the widows so much!"

"Come on! Find out the identity of this person immediately and kill his three clans!"

If the real Prince Ye was sitting in the top position, he would definitely not be so tyrannical.But this is a fake after all, and although this fake prince's performance is a bit too much, it is just right now.After all, how to get this assassin to speak now has become the most critical point.

When the ministers in the palace heard this, they were all terrified and couldn't help shivering.

It can be seen that if an assassin does this job well, he will be a fearsome hero who has been passed down through the ages.If you don't do well, you will be ants buried with your family.It has always been like this in the 5000 years of Chinese civilization.

Ji Sunsu's expression was serious, and he seemed very nervous. His eyes kept wandering on the assassin and Li Ran, but he never dared to speak.

At this time, Shusun Bao suddenly stepped forward, came to the side of the assassin, knelt down and whispered something in the assassin's ear.

The next moment, the assassin suddenly raised his head, glanced at another "assassin" who was also kneeling on the side, and then looked at Shu Sunbao with an unbelievable look, unable to recover for a long time.

Seeing this, Li Ran raised his eyebrows slightly, and said very calmly:
"Go ahead, tell me everything you know."

"His Royal Highness can save the lives of his whole family, and naturally he can also save the lives of yours!"

Although Shu Sunbao didn't know Li Ran's plan for the third stage, after the assassin entered the hall and after listening to Li Ran's words, he reacted and spoke with confidence.

Sure enough, the assassin heard the sound, hesitated for a moment, then turned his head slowly, looked at Ji Sunsu suddenly, and begged in a pleading voice:
"Doctor Ji Sun!..."

It's over, this time it's completely hammered.

"you!"

Ji Sunsu didn't have the power to argue at this time, his snow-white beard trembled with anger, and the fire in his eyes was about to burst out, he gritted his teeth and became angry from embarrassment.

The courtiers present had already been mentally prepared. It could be seen that the assassin looked at Ji Sunsu, and everyone couldn't help but turn pale in shock and gasp.

This thing is too big!
The mastermind behind the assassination of Li Ran was Ji Sunsu, so the mastermind behind the assassination of the prince was also Ji Sunsu? !

Everyone hastily looked at the fake prince sitting upright.

But what they didn't expect was that the prince laughed at this time, and the ironic laughter echoed in the hall for a while.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

This kind of laughter was so creepy that even Shusun Bao felt his hairs stand on end for a moment, his scalp tingling.

"His Royal Highness! The minister has absolutely nothing to do with this person! This person framed the old minister so much, His Royal Highness must be the master of the old minister!"

What these ministers didn't expect was that Ji Sunsu was still asking the crown prince to make decisions for him.

This made Meng Sunjie on the side stunned: You sent someone to assassinate the prince, but you still let the prince decide for you, do you think the prince is a son or something?Playing like a monkey?

Shusun Bao also looked at him with a frown, wondering if this person has lost his mind and gone crazy. At this time, asking the prince to call the shots, isn't this a blatant humiliation of the prince?

But how did he know that Ji Sunsu's move was the most brilliant move at the moment!
Even Li Ran couldn't help admiring the old fox.

Li Ran knew in his heart that with the assassin's identification, it was almost revealed that Ji Sunsu was the mastermind behind the assassination of the prince.

But at this time, if Ji Sunsu used his power in Lu State to forcibly deny the matter and not give the prince any face, then in the eyes of these courtiers, he would be a complete treasonous act.

After all, putting the facts first, even if you want to deny it flatly, you can't completely disregard the prince's face.

Obviously Ji Sunsu is not stupid.

He did not use his power in Lu State to coerce the court, but lowered his posture and begged the fake prince to be the master for him.

In this way, even if he is really the mastermind behind the assassination of the prince, even if all this is true, as long as he begs for mercy in every possible way and refuses to admit it in every possible way, the prince will not be able to force him to do anything.

After all, the first one is fake, and the second one is not the culprit who assassinated the prince.

Therefore, neither he nor Li Ran had conclusive evidence to prove that he had indeed assassinated the prince.

When the whole matter developed to this point, Ji Sunsu showed weakness to the prince and begged the prince to make decisions for him. This was already the best result that Li Ran could control.

And at this moment, the second assassin who was brought in, knowing that he had no chance of surviving, took one last look at Shusun Bao, and then rushed straight to the pillars in the hall without saying a word , He hit the pillar directly and died!

Because he knew that just when he was flustered for a moment, that "Doctor Ji Sun" that seemed to be in heat was already a catastrophe for his lord.But at this time, he could not escape the word "death".

At this time, committing suicide in fear of crime is the best ending for him and Ji Sunsu.

This time, the courtiers present were really surprised, and they all froze in place, at a loss.

But Ji Sunsu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and his nervous expression suddenly eased.

The fake prince was a little confused. After all, this person is the most critical witness. If he committed suicide at this time, how could they continue to accuse Ji Sunsu of committing a riot?So he hurriedly looked towards Li Ran.

"It seems that this person would rather die than keep the person behind the scenes."

Li Ran's voice sounded very disappointed.

The fake prince understood and immediately sighed:

"Doctor Ji Sun, no matter who sent this assassin, the doctor is still suspicious today, so don't go out for the next few days."

There is no proof of death, big things are turned into small things, and small things are turned into small things.

The counterattack against Ji Sunsu suddenly came to an abrupt end.

Uncle Sunbao was about to speak when he heard the sound, but seeing the look on Li Ran's face, he immediately chose to shut up.

He was very puzzled, why he let Ji Sunsu go so easily, today is the best time, if he misses, there will be endless troubles!
But Li Ran didn't give him a chance to speak, only listening to Li Ran say:

"Lord Jisun, I am just a white traveler with no status and status. It is really ridiculous to say that he was able to enter this Hantai Palace thanks to this assassin."

"However, even though he is white, he has eyes and limbs, and his understanding of mind is no less than that of other adults. The adults have some means, which can be used to deal with others, so let's not use them to deal with them in the future, right? As the saying goes, to be a man Stay on the line, so we can meet again in the future, right?"

Thus, the third phase of the counterattack finally came to an end.
