The boss always wants to kill me

"It's nothing!" Cangbi turned her head and roared out, even frightened by her decisive voice.

"My lord, you..."

Cangbi raised her elbow and slammed on the window lattice: "This king and his personal guards will try their skills, when will it be your turn to take care of it!"

The guard outside had no choice but to give up: "Yes."

"You..." The nameless hand was almost placed on Cangbi's neck, and after a moment of contemplation, most of the anger subsided, "Why don't you let them escort you?"

"You won't kill me." Cang Bi held Wuming's hand and stroked it gently, as if to comfort a frightened and trapped animal, "You don't want to kill Brother Huang, I will investigate the case of Prime Minister He for you Clear, okay?"

Wuming finally let go, and took a step back dejectedly: "If you don't understand, I'll kill you too."

After the morning court the next day, Cangbi sent someone to send a message to the emperor's palace, saying that she had recovered from her illness and wanted to catch up with the emperor's brother. Yuan followed the guards everywhere and went to the imperial study.

"Here we come." Hearing the report, the emperor saw Cangbi come in, and immediately dissipated his sad expression about political affairs. He put down his pen, got up himself, led her to sit beside him, and looked suspiciously at the person who also followed in. nameless.

After seeing His Majesty's eyes, several big inner guards immediately comprehended, and walked into the room with an ordinary official appearance. There was one person standing next to each red column, and four of the most powerful martial arts blatantly surrounded the room. Less than half a foot away from the desk, another person stood between Wuming and Cangbi, separating the distance between this unknown person and the noble prince.

Looking at the battle, Cangbi naturally knew that the emperor suspected Wuming, so he waved his hand and said, "He Lang, there are so many guards in the palace, you don't need to be so tight with me, just go and wait."

"Yes." Wuming bowed his head and lowered his eyes, walked away silently for two feet, and stood beside a guard. This distance can not only hear the conversation between the two of them clearly, but also not make people overly suspicious.

The emperor nodded slightly, he had long been used to the airtight protection, and in the presence of a room full of dignified guards, he looked at his brother calmly and said, "Maybe I will let the imperial doctor see it again and confirm that there is no serious problem. ?”

"I sent the imperial doctor to see it this morning, and there is no problem." Cang Bi got up, took a step back, and apologized, "Brother Huang, it was Cheng Si's fault this time, which made Brother Huang almost fall into danger."

"When did I blame you?" Zhao Chengyin frowned and helped Cangbi up, "Whether to go to the secret village or not is up to me to decide, besides, no one would expect to meet an assassin, and besides, he saved me, so The one in danger is clearly you."

Cangbi shook her head: "Cheng Si is too capricious."

The original body in my memory was pampered by her mother and older brothers since she was a child, and she didn't need to worry about any political affairs. Although her nature was not bad, she was a bit smug and lustful except for the third character. side.Somehow, these memories penetrated into Cangbi's chest as if they were real, making him seem to have become Zhao Chengsi, and the guilt and uneasiness in his heart flooded.

Zhao Chengyin exposed the self-blame of the two brothers, saying to him: "Have you seen the appearance of the assassin that day?"

"The assassin's face was covered with a black cloth that day, and Cheng Si didn't see it clearly." Cang Bi would not lie, she lowered her eyes.

The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly in displeasure, his eyes were dangerous, and he seemed to glance at Wuming casually, but he still asked Zhao Chengsi: "Do you still remember what that person's eyebrows and eyes look like, black pupils, thick eyebrows?"

"Nine out of ten people in the world have black pupils, and it's not special." Cangbi blurted out in a guilty conscience, and hurriedly made amends, "Then Cheng Si was frightened and couldn't see clearly, so it should be black pupils. "

"Then what kind of character is He Lang?"

"Brother Huang, why did you suddenly ask about He Lang? Cheng Si said before that he saved my benefactor on the edge of a cliff."

Zhao Chengsi did not hesitate, and asked again: "The one who sneaked into Jing Zhaoyin's residence with you that day was He Lang?"

Cangbi was dumb, the huge hall fell silent suddenly, the bright sunlight shone on the ground through the window sash, accompanied by the clear birdsong not far away, Cangbi's heart trembled even more when he heard it.

My thoughts turned sharply, and I searched for all reasonable excuses that could be used without suffering, but in the end it was futile.

Nameless clasps the palm on the hilt of the sword, ready to draw out the sheath at any time.Before the fish died and the net was broken, Cangbi took a deep breath and knelt down on the ground with a plop.

"Brother Huang, this matter is Cheng Si's fault, don't blame He Lang." Cangbi bowed her head, peeked at Wuming's side, and confirmed that his hand holding the sword was released, then turned her gaze, stared at the bluestone floor tiles, thinking about what to say next .

"The majestic prince, dressed as an assassin with an unknown person, broke into Jing Zhaoyin's mansion at night, what is the reason?" The younger brother who has loved him for many years has never done such a big gift to him in private. Zhao Chengyin went to help someone, and his hands stopped. Halfway, he took the form back as if nothing had happened. He already had some inferences in his mind, and he felt that what his brother would say next would be a lie, and he couldn't help but grow up with grudges.

Cangbi guessed Zhao Chengyin's thoughts to some extent, and said bravely: "That day, the officials came to collect taxes and took He Lang's savings for a month. Cheng Si asked again, and they did the same to the surrounding households. Excessive taxation. At that time, I was full of resentment at the behavior of the officials, and I didn't know my identity, so I begged and forced He Lang to accompany me to Jingzhao Yin's mansion to take back the extra money collected. He Lang I've tried to persuade you, but I can't help you."

"Brother Huang, you also know my temperament. I'm straightforward. I do what I want. I never care about the consequences. When I was a child in the secret village, you even asked you to dig out the tree for me as a ninety-five venerable." Luckily, nothing went wrong at that time, otherwise I..." Cangbi suddenly raised her head, her words revealed her true feelings, her eyes were full of apologies to her brother, she lowered her voice after finishing speaking, and continued , "He Lang couldn't help it, so he accompanied me to rob Jing Zhaoyin's mansion."

Zhao Chengyin couldn't help being moved by the old events, and finally helped Cangbi up, but his brows were tightened: "Robbery? Is it the money that was overtaxed?"

The news reported by the Tai Tuo only said that Jing Zhaoyin was broken into, but did not mention the loss. The emperor thought that the purpose of the assassin was to assassinate him. After Cangbi said this, his heart sank a little.

"Where does the stolen money go?"

"I bought food and clothing, and gave them to the villages in the west of the capital, which were plagued by locusts last year." Cangbi no longer felt guilty when she told the truth, raised her head, and looked directly at the emperor with green eyes, "If you have any doubts, brother , but send someone to investigate, when I went out of the city that day, I pretended to be a woman with a scar on my face, and I was stopped by the officials, they should still remember."

Cangbi only knew that this paragraph was definitely not a shameful thing, and could also justify Wuming's name, but she didn't consider that if she interrogated the villagers, she would find out that Wuming had given money and gifts several times before.A commoner who has this kind of money must come from suspicious sources. After investigation, he will find Wuming's previous theft cases, and the disguise technique will make Wuming's identity even more dirty.

Fortunately, the emperor confirmed what Cang Bi said was true just from his eyes, and did not plan to investigate further.

"Brother Huang, there is one more thing..." Cang Bi carefully observed the emperor's expression, considering what to say, "Cheng Si accidentally heard something that was not good for the royal family's reputation among the common people."

"What's the matter?" Zhao Chengyin's brows, which had finally been separated, furrowed slightly again.
