"We owe Head Chief Chu too much this time." Leng Shoushi shook his head.
Leng Shoushan asked, "He knows everything?"
"It's hard to say." Leng Shoushi looked at the two middle-aged men.
The round-faced middle-aged man said, "Zhu Wu didn't know how he was captured. He fainted, he didn't see the person who captured him, and no one asked him anything."
"… It's hard to say that he doesn't know." Leng Shoushi shook his head. "He's in the Secret Guardians Hall, he's more well-informed than we are. Furthermore, he's very capable. Never mind, let's put this aside for now and stop investigating."
Leng Shoushan said hatefully, "Does that mean Fifth Brother died for nothing, Ninth Brother?"
Leng Shoushi looked at his stubborn expression. "Then there's only one way, let Uncle Kang handle this."
He was hesitant, he couldn't be sure if Prince Kang was involved in this.
Logically speaking, if Prince Kang was involved, he should be able to protect Fifth Brother. However, it could be a warning to Prince Kang, threatening him not to do anything rash. In short, this matter was complicated and unpredictable, it was not advisable to delve too deeply into it and cause trouble for oneself. Fifth Brother's death was the best warning.
Leng Shoushan sighed. "Then I'll talk to Father."
"You talk to Uncle Kang, I'll talk to Father too. They're all schemers," Leng Shoushi said. "We're still too young."
"Alright." Leng Shoushan nodded.
Leng Shoushi looked at the two middle-aged men. "You two go, be careful."
"Don't worry, Imperial Crown Prince." The two closed fist saluted and left the house.
Leng Shoushi rubbed his eyebrows, he felt that this short moment of brainstorming was more than a year.
"We'll go back first and let Father decide," Leng Shoushi said. "If they don't make a move, we'll do it ourselves!"
"Yes," Leng Shoushan said. "Should we kill Zhu Wu first?"
"We must kill him, but we'll have to think about how to kill him," Leng Shoushi said. "We'll ask Father for their opinion."
"Alright." Leng Shoushan nodded.
"Be careful on the road," Leng Shoushi reminded.
Leng Shoushan closed fist saluted and left in big strides.
Leng Shoushi shouted, "Snow Ji!"
Snow Ji gracefully entered the house.
Leng Shoushi said, "Go and tell Chief Hua to send Miss Yu Qing's contract to Head Chief Chu. Do it quietly, don't let anyone find out."
Snow Ji responded and asked in surprise, "Sister Yu Qing is going to redeem herself?"
Leng Shoushi nodded.
"It's still Head Chief Chu?" Snow Ji pursed her lips and smiled. "Head Chief Chu has already redeemed three of our sisters."
Leng Shoushi smiled, "Do you want to redeem yourself?"
He was in a good mood when he was with these pure girls.
"Of course I want to," Snow Ji said with a smile. "But I haven't found anyone I like. What should I do?"
"Then let's wait." Leng Shoushi said, "There will be."
Snow Ji secretly rolled her eyes at him. Acting dumb!
Leng Shoushi brought along a few Protectors and carefully returned to Prince Bao's Imperial Residence. When he arrived at the martial arts field in the backyard, he saw his father, Prince Bao, slowly practicing a set of fist techniques.
Leng Shoushi waved his hand.
The surrounding maids and guards all retreated.
The huge back garden was empty, and only the chirping of birds could be heard.
On the surface of the lake not far away, a few sparkling golden fish leaped out and fell back, splashing water everywhere.
"What's the matter?" Prince Bao was dressed in a bright yellow robe. His expression was solemn and he was not angry.
"Father, I've encountered a difficult matter." Leng Shoushi said.
"Tell me about it." Prince Bao glanced at him indifferently and said casually.
Leng Shoushi looked around again.
Prince Bao scoffed, "Sneaky! Luo Qi, all of you leave too! "
"Yes." Someone in the dark replied, then there was no more movement.
Leng Shoushi was finally relieved. He told his father what happened in a low voice.
Prince Bao's brows furrowed even tighter. He glared at him.
Leng Shoushi's face was cold in front of others, but he was relaxed in front of his father. He said in a low voice, "I regret this too. But since it has come to this, I can't stay out of it. I can only ask for your opinion, father."
"You're worried that your Fourth Uncle is involved?" Prince Bao saw through his thoughts.
Leng Shoushi nodded lightly.
Prince Bao did not say anything. He slowly practiced his fist technique.
In the empty backyard, there was suddenly a clear cry. It was a Golden Eagle that swooped down and landed on the octagonal pagoda. It stood on top of the pagoda and looked majestic.
Leng Shoushi floated to the top of the pagoda and took the bamboo tube from the Golden Eagle's leg. He then patted the Golden Eagle's wings and floated back to Prince Bao's side. He handed the bamboo tube to him.
Prince Bao kept his fist technique and opened the bamboo tube to take a look. He shook his head and did not say anything.
The Golden Eagle spread its wings and flew. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the sky.
"Father, I'm worried about King Ping." Leng Shoushi sighed. "His military power is too heavy. Everyone knows that the Emperor will reduce his power. He might not be willing! At that time, it will be chaos! "
"The matter of reducing King Ping's military power should be kept as far away as possible." Prince Bao said in a low voice, "Whoever touches it will die! As for this matter, let's leave it to your Fourth Uncle. He will most likely tolerate it. "Prince Bao said.
"Uncle Kang can tolerate it?" Leng Shoushi was surprised.
He knew that he was a shrewd person and could control his emotions well. However, this matter could not be tolerated no matter what. His son was killed. This kind of pain was a hundred or a thousand times more painful than the death of his parents. Who could tolerate it?
"Your Fourth Uncle's forte is his forbearance." Prince Bao scoffed. "He can tolerate what others can't. However, this revenge will be avenged sooner or later. It depends on how it is done. We don't have to worry about it anyway!"
"Then what should we do with Zhu Wu?" Leng Shoushi asked. "We have to be very careful."
"Leave it to your Fourth Uncle. Let him think of a way. You have to get yourself out of this!" Prince Bao scoffed.
Today it was Leng Shoujiang. Tomorrow it might be Leng Shoushan or Leng Shoushi. Such a daring assassination, if they did not retaliate fiercely and make the enemy pay a huge price, the life of an Imperial Crown Prince would be too cheap!
Prince Bao's face did not change, but his heart was boiling with anger.
"Father, this Head Chief Chu is indeed worthy of your praise. He is indeed a genius!" Leng Shoushi said. "If it was someone else, who would be able to find the murderer? It was a flawless assassination, and it was coordinated by many parties. There were no flaws! "
Prince Bao replied with a 'hmm' and started practicing his fist technique again.
"I've always been curious. How did he find out?" Leng Shoushi said. "He could find Zhu Wu just by listening to their conversation? Among the six people he invited, there was the Minister Counsellor from the Ministry of War, Gu Qi! … This person looks ordinary, he is easily overlooked. How did Fifth Brother become friends with him? "
Leng Shoujiang was just a playboy. He only knew how to play and play. He almost never participated in the affairs of the imperial court. Logically speaking, he would be looked down upon by the people in the imperial court. It was impossible for Leng Shoujiang to become friends with him. However, they were friends. That was why Prince Bao suspected that Leng Shoujiang was involved.
"We'll know once we investigate," Prince Bao said. "But be careful, don't get found out. This case …"
"Should we report this to the Emperor?" Leng Shoushi asked.
Prince Bao shook his head. "It's best to pretend that you don't know."
"Yes," Leng Shoushi said.
"Send an invitation to Chu Li. Invite him to the residence," Prince Bao said.
Leng Shoushi was shocked.
Prince Bao said, "Such a person, you should get closer to him."
