Emperor Xu's face darkened, thinking that something had happened? He waved his hand gently, and Eunuch Jia, who was standing next to him, immediately understood and said, "Let him come in."

The deputy general had already taken the initiative to hand over his carry-on weapon. When the guards went out to convey Xu Huang's orders, the deputy general immediately rushed forward as quickly as possible.

"What the hell is there?" Xu Huang asked impatiently.

"Reporting to the emperor, the last general and Shangshu Linghu went to the residence of the Prince of Liang. The Imperial Guard surrounded the residence of the prince. It was originally very smooth, and all personnel except the Prince of Liang were about to be arrested, but at the most critical moment, the Prince of Liang obstructed him."

The deputy general knelt on the floor tremblingly. Perhaps because of fear, he spoke very quickly. After all, he had not completed the task, and if Emperor Xu was angry, he would not have any good results.

"Why did he obstruct? Did you obstruct the people who took away the prince's mansion?" Xu Huang's face was obviously angry.

"Yes." The deputy general nodded vigorously, "He said he did not set fire or assassinate, and the person Xu Guo was going to arrest had nothing to do with the whole matter."

"Bah!" Xu Huang was furious, "The assassin personally pointed out that it was considered to be the end of his kindness and righteousness if he didn't kill him. Unexpectedly, he would still dare to be more arrogant and prevent you from arresting other personnel from the Prince's Mansion!"

Hearing this, Lu Xuan immediately said, "Hmph, it's really a dog biting Lu Dongbin, but he doesn't know the good people's hearts. If it weren't for the relationship between Xu and Liang, and the prince Aili, who was in Liang, I would like to lead the troops myself and throw the prince of Liang into the Heavenly Prison, let him cry in the Heavenly Prison, begging us to let him go."

"It seems that the Prince of Liang is really a waste. He is not responsible and cannot be considered a man at all." Ou Jian pursed his lips and said while waving his sleeves that were half burned by the flames.

He wanted Emperor Xu to remember the firefighting effect of the fifth floor of Zhaixing Tower tonight, but he himself forgot that it was Chen Lang who taught everyone to lie down to avoid the invasion of thick smoke; Chen Lang also proposed to twist the quilt into ropes and use the special structure of Zhaixing Tower to escape from the exterior wall.

Lu Xuan's eyes rolled: "I'm afraid the fire and assassination are really related to Prince Liang."

"That's right!" Ou Jian said with a brow raised, "Prince Liang was worried that we would find out the whole story, so he could only escape."

They said and said something, belittled Chen Lang as if it were dust under their feet. The deputy general who was kneeling on the ground wanted to interrupt, but he couldn't insert it several times in a row.

Finally, the deputy general controlled his panic, straightened his thinking, and found an opportunity to muster up the courage and said: "The Prince of Liang obstructed Shangshu of Linghu to arrest people, and at the same time he proposed another plan."

"Bang!"

Xu Huang patted the table with a single palm: "The assassin pointed out that the prince of Liang was assassinated by me. I showed my greatest sincerity. Not only did he not appreciate it, he would also propose another plan to me?"

"He told Linghu Shangshu..."

Xu Huanglongyan was furious, and everyone present was so scared that they trembled. The deputy general wanted to answer, but just now he spit out the first few words, and his tongue was instantly tied and he couldn't say anything.

Emperor Xu calmed down and calmed his tone: "Don't be anxious, you can speak slowly. What exactly is the Prince of Liang proposed?"

The deputy general buried his head to the lowest point: "He proposed to keep the rest of the prince's mansion, and he was willing to go to heaven to jail so as to prove his innocence."

ah?

In the lobby of Zhongcheng Government Office, Xu Huang, Lu Xuan, Ou Jian, Eunuch Jia, and Tang Quan were all well-informed people here, but no one among them expected that Chen Lang would put him in prison.

Is this the Prince of Liang who is greedy for life and fears death?

Is this still the ignorant Prince of Liang?

Is this the prince of Liang who is still drunk and slutty?

"Your Majesty, what should I do?" the deputy general urged carefully.

Emperor Xu pursed his lips and held his forehead with one hand. In fact, from the bottom of his heart, Emperor Xu did not believe that it was Chen Lang who instructed the arson and assassination, but before he died, the assassin pointed out Chen Lang. This factor alone could not completely eliminate Chen Lang's suspicion.

Moreover, even for the sake of face, Emperor Xu must take measures against the Prince's Mansion. Otherwise, in the eyes of the people of Xu, where is Emperor Xu's majesty?

The original plan was to arrest the people around Chen Lang and strictly monitor Chen Lang, but now Chen Lang requested to turn around, arrest himself, and strictly monitor other personnel in the Prince's Mansion.

I won’t talk about anything else. Just Chen Lang can propose this plan to protect his servants, which will make Emperor Xu look at him with admiration. You must know that his servants will definitely be severely tortured after being arrested, but Chen Lang, as the prince of Liang, no one dares to touch him.

Unless Emperor Xu personally orders.

How to deal with it?

Emperor Xu fell into a brief meditation. If we talk about face and case handling effectiveness, it would be better to directly arrest Chen Lang. If Chen Lang was thrown into the prison, would Liang Guocheng take revenge...

Although the prince of Xu State Ai Yang was not favored, he was the eldest son of Emperor Xu after all, and was born to the queen. If Liang State retaliated against him, with Ai Yang's fragile personality and body bones, he would probably not be able to stand it in the heavenly prison.

"Is his attitude very firm?" Xu Huang asked suddenly.

"Yes, it looks like a temporary intention, but the attitude is very firm." The deputy general told the truth.

Emperor Xu said slowly: "This way, I can agree to the request of Prince Liang, but I must ask him to compile a letter to Emperor Liang, which proves that Prince Liang voluntarily entered the Xu Guotian Prison, and Xu Guo did not force him."

After hearing this, the deputy general quickly kowtowed: "Abide by the emperor's order."

...

In front of the Prince's Mansion, Linghu Suting was impatient, but he must not have an attack to avoid affecting the morale of the army. The mansion was silent at this moment, and Chen Lang asked Yin Baichuan and others to go back to the house to rest, leaving only Yu Mufei with him.

The moon was bright, and the gentle light shone on the earth. Chen Lang and Yu Mufei sat in the yard, waiting for the horse's hooves to go from far to near.

"Have you really never seen the assassin who framed you before?" Yu Mufei asked softly.

"No." Chen Lang answered without hesitation. He had repeatedly thought about the related questions. In his impression, there was indeed no face of an assassin.

"You didn't have to go to the Heavenly Prison." Yu Mufei said with concern.

"Don't worry, I'll be back soon, just treat me as a vacation." Chen Lang said with a smile.

Da da ~

Suddenly, the sound of a horse galloping outside came. Chen Lang knew that it was the deputy general who took the order and returned. He stood up and pressed Yu Mufei's shoulder: "Go to rest early, I'll go out alone."

"Are you alone?" Yu Mufei gritted his teeth and watched Chen Lang's back disappear into the night.

Chen Lang was now tight, but he still had to pretend to be relaxed. He opened the door with his head held high and his chest raised. At this time, Linghu Suting had already dismounted and bowed with both hands: "Your Highness, Emperor Xu asked you to compile a book to prove that we did not force you. His Highness voluntarily entered the Heavenly Prison. He also asked to explain it in the book. Please don't be too dissatisfied."

Humph ~
