"Report!" The guards outside the door broke into the palace.

"What's wrong?" the emperor asked with a frown.

"Your Majesty, Guard Xie and Princess Qingyang requested to see you. They said they caught an assassin. This person might know who the evildoer is."

"Oh? Come to see me quickly!"

"Yes!"

As soon as the words fell, the ministers were all worried.

Prince Fenyang broke out in cold sweats. He felt that something was wrong. Could it be that Zuo Teng had been captured?

It doesn’t matter. Even if the assassination plan failed, Zuo Teng, as Deadpool, would never dare to reveal a single word.

He kept comforting himself in his heart.

Prime Minister Liu glanced in his direction, as if with worry, and also as if warning: You old man, you'd better not cause any trouble.

The emperor was in a very good mood at the moment. He silently watched the eyes of his younger brother and the prime minister, expecting Zhihan to give him a big surprise in a while.

A moment later, Yun Zhihan, Xie Bochen and others walked into the court.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!"

"Please get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Princess Qingyang, I heard someone was trying to assassinate you, are you okay?"

"Your Majesty, thanks to Guard Xie and the Crown Prince's elite soldiers, I was able to escape. There is another guard hiding in the dark, I wonder who he belongs to?"

The emperor was happy in his heart, but pretended to be calm on the surface and said, "It's okay, I will go and ask in person later."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Then, Yun Zhihan pointed at Zuo Teng who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, this man is the mastermind behind the assassination of me."

Prince Fenyang and Prime Minister Liu were stunned for a moment. Yun Zhihan appeared in the lobby intact.

More importantly, Zuo Teng was captured alive? He'd better not say anything, otherwise Prince Fenyang's plan to seize power would be ruined.

The most nervous person was Prime Minister Liu. He had just joined forces with the prince for a few days, and he was about to face a catastrophe? Wasn't this too fast?

The emperor saw that the assassin was covered in blood, but his injuries did not seem to be very serious.

"Take the cloth out of his mouth. I want to interrogate him personally!"

"Yes!" Bo Chen tore off the cloth and pressed him to the ground.

"Who is this person in the audience? Tell me your name! Who instructed you to assassinate the county lady?"

Zuo Teng shook his head, but his eyes kept glancing at the prince. Prince Fenyang didn't dare to look at him at all, and kept cursing in his heart: This bastard, what are you looking at him for at this time? Do you want to kill him?

The emperor also noticed his look and pressed him, "If you tell the truth, I can save your life."

Zuo Teng didn't want to say anything, but he didn't know what kind of pill these people had fed him. His consciousness began to get out of control, and as soon as he heard the other party's questions, he wanted to blurt out what they said.

At first, he struggled desperately, but after the emperor questioned him several times, he finally succumbed to consciousness.

"I am Zuo Teng, the dead servant of King Fenyang. The assassination mission was assigned to me by the prince."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the ministers present looked at King Fenyang.

Even Yun Zhihan couldn't help but admire in his heart: Isn't the effect of Uncle Wen's pill amazing?

This fluent dialogue was beyond her expectations.

Not only her, the emperor, the prince, and Bai Yuan were all shocked. They had thought that severe punishment would be needed to pry open his mouth, but they didn't expect that he confessed everything after the emperor asked just a few questions?

Prince: Is there a trick here? Why did this guy confess so quickly? Is this a conspiracy by the Emperor's uncle?

Bai Yuan and Bai Chen: Mom is so powerful, she is the god in their hearts!

Emperor: Zhihan always gives him surprises, the Xie family must reward him handsomely.

Prince Fenyang immediately knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, I am innocent! I have never seen this person, let alone raised a Deadpool!"

Then, he angrily scolded Zuo Teng, "Who are you? Who asked you to frame me?"

Zuo Teng saw that the prince had no intention of saving him and was instead ready to put all the blame on himself, and anger instantly surged in his heart. In addition, the effect of the drug affected his thinking, so he completely gave up struggling.

"Your Majesty, I have worked hard for you for more than ten years. Not to mention my achievements, my hard work alone is too numerous to count. How can you pretend not to know me?"

"How dare you! My fiefdom is far away from the capital. Even if I train a Deadpool, it is impossible for him to go to the capital. You are clearly framing me!"

Prince Fenyang felt that Zuo Teng was crazy. He actually dared to openly contradict him in the court? Was he ready to die?

"Your Majesty, please make the decision for me!"

The emperor ignored him and asked, "Zuo Teng, you should use evidence when speaking. What is your purpose in framing the prince without any reason?"

"Your Majesty, please investigate! The evidence is in my house. If we send someone to search, we will find evidence of Prince Fenyang's collusion with the enemy and evidence of his murder of the Xie family."

For a moment, the ministers stared at him with wide eyes as if they had heard some shocking gossip. It would be perfect if he had a plate of melon seeds and a pot of wine.

Yun Zhihan couldn't hide his excitement. Uncle Wen's pill was simply magical. He must give Uncle Wen more money when he gets back!

When the emperor heard this, he immediately sent people to search.

"Thank you, guard!"

"Wei Chen is here!"

"Take people to search, check it carefully for me!"

"Wei Chen accepts the order."

Seeing Xie Bochen leading his men away, King Fenyang, who was kneeling on the ground, broke out in cold sweat and his clothes were soaked with sweat.

He didn't expect that Zuo Teng, this bastard, actually kept the evidence in private? Who gave him the courage?

"Zuo Teng, I order you to confess everything you know. If it is verified to be true, I can spare your life. The opportunity is before you. What is your choice?"

When Zuo Teng heard that he would not die, his eyes were full of fire. When he thought of King Fenyang's ruthlessness, he became even more unscrupulous.

Even if he died, he would drag this person down with him.

"Your Majesty, Prince Fenyang has been planning to seize power for more than ten years. He has trained countless deadbeats in Shangjing and the vassal states."

"It's just that a group of them were wiped out by the prince a while ago. Now there are no more Deadpools in the capital."

"Are you talking about the people in the dungeon?" the emperor asked.

"Exactly!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Zhihan knelt on the ground and cried, "Your Majesty, please make a decision for me. My daughter and I almost died in there, and my daughter almost lost her virginity."

The emperor was furious and looked at his younger brother, "Prince Fenyang! What else do you have to say?"

"Royal brother, this person has no evidence, all of this is fabricated by him. Is it possible that this is a conspiracy directed and acted by the Xie family?"

His principle is: unless there is sufficient evidence, he will never admit it.

The prince saw that he didn't cry until he saw the coffin, so he stepped forward and reported, "Father, I have evidence."

"Say!"

"My son's spy came back from the emperor's uncle's fiefdom and informed him that he was training private soldiers. There was a suspicious thing: there were Deadpool's clothes in the fiefdom's army."

"The clothes look like they are made of the same fabric and pattern as the clothes worn by the deadpools I took away."
