Conan's physique? The Crown Princess is involved in a murder case again

Jing Zhichen glanced at Prince An coldly, with a hint of disdain at the corner of his mouth.

"Prince An is so arrogant. You might as well think about how I got in just now if your army of 10,000 people was stationed outside?"

Prince An was stunned, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes briefly, and then he quickly denied it.

"You are just making a feint to the east and attacking in the west. You are just making up stories. I have already seen this happen with your Crown Princess today. Now Your Highness is using the same old trick again. Do you really think I will be fooled again?"

Hearing Xu Xingyin, Jing Zhichen was obviously in a good mood and chuckled.

"My wife is no less capable than me. She is more than capable of dealing with you."

Prince An did not realize that some people were trying to show off in their words. He just thought that Jing Zhichen was mocking him and said angrily.

"Do you think you can scare me with your words? No matter how brave your East Palace's Black Tiger Cavalry is, they are no match for my army of 10,000!"

Jing Zhichen was too lazy to say any more words. He waved his hand lightly, and the surrounding soldiers immediately dispersed and surrounded Prince An and his remnants in a fan shape.

Then, trumpets sounded outside the execution ground, accompanied by the roar of horse hooves, and a huge army rushed in from the other side of the execution ground with fluttering flags and great momentum.

The Black Tiger Cavalry, the Embroidered Uniform Guards, the Inner Guards, and elite troops from various departments were all among them, including a small team of former Chen family soldiers.

Prince An opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief.

"This...how is this possible!"

The Jinyiwei and Neiwei were both directly under the emperor's jurisdiction, not to mention the elite troops of each department. It was impossible for Jing Zhichen, a deposed prince, to mobilize them, unless...

This was instructed by Emperor Yan Ning!

When Prince An realized this, his heart sank to the bottom in an instant.

Prince An asked straight to the point, "Is my father still alive?"

There was no need for Jing Zhichen to hide anything any longer, so he directly told Prince An the whole story.

"My father and I have long known that you have been raising private soldiers. We thought you would not do such a foolish thing, so we turned a blind eye to it. Who knew that you would be so bold as to lead your troops to surround Longxiang Palace and demand that my father personally issue an edict of abdication. So my father and I decided to use your trick against you. My father would rather die than surrender, so he drank your poison and fell into a coma. I followed the clues to find the place where you hid your private soldiers and captured them all in one fell swoop to prevent future troubles."

When Prince An heard this, he realized that he might really be in trouble this time, and laughed.

"So, the 'Jing Zhichen' in prison was not you from the beginning. So, the 'Jing Zhichen' who died was naturally not you either."

Jing Zhichen raised his eyebrows and did not comment.

"Yes, the person you killed was a prisoner on death row. At that time, I had already traveled to Liuzhou and recruited all the private soldiers you had hidden."

Prince An sat on the ground helplessly like a lost dog. Facing the dark army, he laughed with his head raised like a madman.

Then he said in a trembling voice, "Hahaha! I am not as skilled as you. The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. There is nothing to say. But Jing Zhichen, do you really think you have won the glory? You are where you are now only because of your father's love! I have never been worse than you! I am just unlucky and was not born in the womb of the late queen!"

Jing Zhichen remained calm, listening to Prince An's shouting, without a trace of emotion in his eyes.

"Although Xiao Lu is not a good person, she is at least a good mother. Anyone can blame her, but you shouldn't. Moreover, you have only known how to fight for the throne over the years, but have never thought about how to govern the country and how to seek welfare for the people. You don't care about responsibility or accountability. All you want is a crown that is second only to the emperor. But you were born in the royal family and are supported by the people. If you only know the temptation of power and don't know how to work for the people, then you don't deserve to be in this position. The so-called 'luck' is just an excuse for you to deceive yourself."

Prince An could not listen to Jing Zhichen's truth. He just screamed and refuted subconsciously, and refused to listen.

Jing Zhichen was too lazy to argue with him. He reached out and deftly pressed several acupoints on the opponent, sealing his martial arts. He then waved his hand and the soldiers came forward, picked up Prince An and dragged him out.

"No! No! It's not like that!"

Prince An was still roaring as the sound of footsteps gradually faded away.

King An's roar gradually faded away, leaving only the neatly lined-up elite soldiers on the execution ground. The Dayan flag fluttered in the wind, silently announcing victory.

Jing Zhichen stood on a high place, directing the soldiers to deal with the aftermath in an orderly manner.

At the same time, the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground. After explaining everything in detail, he hurriedly left the execution ground and rushed towards the teahouse where Xu Xingyin was.

There were heavy casualties in today's battle. Xu Xingyin didn't even care about his own injuries. He called on the imperial physician to treat the injured soldiers and also requisitioned a nearby teahouse for everyone to rest and heal.

After the war was under control, people from the Zhenguo Mansion and the Eastern Palace quickly rushed over, helping Xu Xingyin to settle the wounded while surrounding Xu Xingyin.

Chen has always known that her daughter has always been different from other rich girls. Although she is dignified and decent on weekdays, she can always turn the tide at critical moments.

Such a heroine is her, Chen's daughter. Just thinking about her makes Chen feel proud.

But besides being honored, I also feel more heartbroken.

Xu Xingyin's hair was now disheveled, and his clothes were stained with blood. He looked so miserable, how could he look like the half-master of the Eastern Palace?

I'm afraid that any random woman on the street nowadays would look more decent than Xu Xingyin.

Therefore, when Chen saw her daughter's appearance, she couldn't help feeling anxious, and hurriedly pushed Xu Xingyin inside.

"Okay, your mother and your brother will watch over you outside. You should take care of your injuries, wash yourself, and change into decent clothes. The Crown Princess' every move is related to the reputation of the royal family, so you must not be careless."

Chen said this with good intentions, worried that Xu Xingyin would not care about his own body, but she didn't know why these words touched Xu Xingyin's sore spot.

Xu Xingyin's face darkened and he said in an unhappy tone.

"Crown Princess? How can my daughter be called a Crown Princess? Has His Highness ever considered me as a wife he can spend his life with and treat honestly? His Highness didn't even bother to inform me of such a big thing. I am the only one who is worried so much that I can't eat or sleep well. It's better not to be such a Crown Princess!"

When Chen heard this, she knew that Xu Xingyin was ready to settle the score later. She sighed, patted Xu Xingyin on the shoulder and advised him.

"Silly girl, you only know that the prince didn't tell you, but you have never seen how much pressure the prince has endured alone. He doesn't want you to know because he is protecting you. This way, no matter whether things succeed or fail, you still have a way out and don't have to gamble everything with him."
