The next morning, Feng Qing Yang walked into Chu Xuanchen's study and reported, "Your Highness, from the weapons used by the assassins, I found out that the assassins who tried to assassinate the princess were members of the Ravengale, an assassin organization in Jiangzhou. The one who used the Qilin Horn Saber was the leader of the Ravengale Hall, Hei Feng. Hei Feng and Zhang Shifan have always been in cahoots. I'm guessing that Zhang Shifan ordered Hei Feng to assassinate the princess! "
Chu Xuanchen narrowed his eyes deeply. With a "bang", he crushed the cup in his hand.
He gritted his teeth with a murderous look on his face. "Zhang Shifan again? Good, very good! "
"Your Highness, I also found out that Zhang Shifan wanted to kill you after he saw you kill Chen Xi and the others. He spent a lot of money to bribe Hei Feng to assassinate you again. This time, he wants to kill you and the princess as well! "Feng Qing Yang said.
"Good! Since he wants to die, Wang will send him on his way. Wang will beat him at his own game and send him on his way! "Chu Xuanchen's eyes were filled with murderous intent. He looked like he was plotting a strategy.
"Your Highness, what should we do?" Feng Qing Yang asked.
"Go and get Su Cheng!" Chu Xuanchen said.
。
Soon after, Feng Qing Yang called Su Cheng over.
After Su Cheng saw the results of the flood-control mission, he was glad that he did not work with Zhang Shifan against Chu Xuanchen.
Now that he was summoned by Chu Xuanchen, he was so scared that his forehead was covered in sweat. His heart was pounding, and he felt uneasy.
"Greetings, Your Highness." Su Cheng quickly bowed when he walked into Chu Xuanchen's study.
Chu Xuanchen glanced at him and suddenly slammed a stack of letters in front of him. He said angrily, "How dare you, Su Cheng! Look at these!"
Su Cheng was so scared that his fat jiggled. He quickly glanced at the letters and his face froze. His body trembled. "Your … Your Highness, how … how did you get these letters?"
These were all the letters he had exchanged when he was colluding with other people, when he was embezzling and accepting bribes. He didn't expect that they were all in Chu Xuanchen's hands.
Chu Xuanchen's eyes were cold and furious. "This was presented to Wang by someone else. It's full of evidence of your corruption and bribery. And this stack of documents is also evidence of you accepting bribes and bending the law. Su Cheng, do you know your crime? "
Seeing the evidence, Su Cheng was so scared that his legs went soft. He immediately knelt in front of Chu Xuanchen. "Prince, please calm down. This official knows his mistake. This official has been doing good deeds every day and has almost finished donating all of my family's property. I hope that Your Highness can forgive this official once on account of this official's repentance! "
"Forgive you? Then who would forgive the people who starved to death? Since you committed such a heinous crime, your fate should be even worse than Chen Xi's. At the very least, your entire family will be exterminated! "Chu Xuanchen shouted angrily.
"Ah …" Su Cheng was so scared that his body went soft and he sat down on the ground. "Your Highness, please spare my life. I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"
"You don't want to die? Then Wang will give you a chance to atone for your crimes. If you can help Wang and take something from Zhang Shifan, Wang will spare your life! "Chu Xuanchen said coldly.
"Ah? Your Highness, take … take what? "Su Cheng was stunned.
Zhang Shifan looked so ferocious that it seemed like he wanted to eat someone alive. Su Cheng didn't dare to take anything from him.
Chu Xuanchen's lips curled up coldly. "Take something that can topple him!"
After leaving Chu Xuanchen's study, Su Cheng hurriedly went to Su Ziye's courtyard and found Chun Niang. He wanted her to carry out the task that very night.
Chun Niang originally didn't want to seduce Zhang Shifan, but she heard from her eunuch that it was a task given by The Emperor of Li.
