After autumn, things happened one after another. The Holy Emperor had just ordered Xue He to be executed, and General Gao's investigation results came out again, pointing the finger directly at King Zhuang.

However, the chain of evidence was still incomplete, so General Gao only reported part of it and left the rest to the Holy One to decide.

Since Prince Zhuang was able to send out these assassins, he would do everything in a trivial manner and leave no fatal clues, so Gao Wenxi did not expect to use this to bring him down.

However, the Holy Spirit is suspicious. Under such circumstances, who knows the subsequent development?

"This matter will be discussed later."

After saying that, the Holy Master asked again: "I heard that Prince Zhuang and Taifu seem to have the idea of ​​​​marriage?"

At this juncture, the Holy Master suddenly asked such a question, causing cold sweat to break out on their foreheads.

Mr. Li was the first to reply.

"Back to the Emperor, I had this intention a few days ago, but Prince Zhuang and my daughter didn't see eye to eye, so I gave up."

It was because they didn't look at each other right. It was clearly Li Wanqing who was causing trouble.

Thinking of Li Wanqing, Taifu got a headache.

Her heart and eyes are full of Lin Yishan. Now let alone Prince Zhuang, marriage with other families is a problem.

The Holy Master nodded and asked General Gao: "So, Yan'er should also be of age to talk about marriage."

General Gao was stunned and said respectfully: "We are away from the capital all year round, and we would like to keep my daughter for a few more years so that she can accompany us."

"Even so, it's not good to delay for too long."

He glanced at Chu Xu from the corner of his eye and saw that he lowered his eyes. Quan regarded this as a topic that had nothing to do with him, which was his usual behavior when General Gao replied.

The Holy Emperor nodded with satisfaction and announced his retreat.

Gao Wenyan went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to wait before his father and brother went to court, so naturally he didn't know this.

After entering the mansion, Chu Xu hurried to the attic without even changing out of his official uniform.

"you are back?"

Just as he was about to stand up to greet her, he was suddenly embraced into a warm embrace.

"What happened?"

"nothing."

Gao Wenyan only thought that he was in a bad mood, so he hugged him for a while.

After a long time, Chu Xu let her go and asked, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"Well, a little bit. But now that you can see Dongshi, it's not boring."

After listening to Chu Xu's retelling of King Zhuang's story, Gao Wenyan suddenly remembered the story of Qiu Lie.

She asked: "Although Prince Zhuang cannot be convicted, he is suspected of assassinating the Holy Emperor."

"And the prince just had a dispute with you and tried to harm you. How could you set up such a trap in the first place?"

The difference between the two is still quite far. I don’t know why Chu Xu came up with this strategy to balance the struggle between the prince and King Zhuang.

However, Chu Xu shook his head and told her something extraordinary.

Before the autumn hunting, many people knew that Chu Xu wanted to hunt a deer this year. However, they did not know that Chu Xu had also said this to the Holy Sage.

There were only two of them at that time. After discussing the state of affairs, Chu Xu mentioned it "casually".

When the Holy Emperor heard this, he said: "So, I haven't hunted a deer for two or three years. Let's see who can hunt it first this year or the Prime Minister."

Only Chu Xu knew this, and the prince might have accidentally heard it.

Because as soon as he finished speaking, the prince asked to see him at the door.

"Did you specifically pick that time?"

"Ah."

Chu Xu smiled and said, "I tried to lure him here."

So he picked the right moment to lure the Holy One to say this.

In this way, the scene where the deer was used to murder Chu Xu was not necessarily a trap set against Chu Xu.

The character of the Holy Emperor will definitely arouse suspicion, so the prince will be suspected of intending to murder the emperor.

No different from King Zhuang.
