It was snowing in Chang 'an, drop by drop, covered in silver.
Liu Jin sat in the clinic's residence and drank tea quietly.
After Ah Qing finished speaking, Liu Jin frowned and said,""You said that the one who injured Ah Nu was the Yang Ling hero Zhu Anshi's aide?”
Ah Qing nodded with a solemn expression."" Your Highness, don't be rash."
"Do you know what kind of place the Sun Tomb is?”
Ah Qing's usual giggling expression had faded away. Her delicate brows were tightly knitted, which was enough to show how troublesome this matter was.
"I don't need to know. I know that his henchman and aide injured Anu. That's enough."”
"Not enough!" Ah Qing said anxiously.
She hurriedly said," Yangling was the cemetery where Emperor Jing and Empress Wang were buried together. Later, it was changed to Ling County. Zhu Anshi was a commandant who guarded the tomb. He was also a famous local chivalrous man. He had done many good deeds in the local area, and the local people respected him very much.”
"I know that Your Highness is very angry now, but dealing with Zhu Anshi is not something that Your Highness can do.”
"We have already arrived in Chang 'an. Zhu Anshi is in Chang' an now, so he can't escape. The most important thing now is to return to the palace as soon as possible and report everything to His Majesty. His Majesty will definitely deal with it fairly.”
Liu Jin shook his head with a sneer and said,"As you said, Zhu Anshi is very famous in the local area and is highly respected by the people.”
"His aides and henchmen tried to assassinate me. According to the Han law, if it's not a crime committed by his immediate family, he won't be implicated. Even if my grandfather were to hand Zhu Anshi over to the Supreme Court for trial, not to mention whether Zhu Anshi could be executed or not, even if he was convicted of not being strict with his subordinates, he would only be exiled in the end.”
"Your Highness, exile is already a very serious crime. It's very likely that you'll die on the way," Ah Qing hurriedly said.”
" It's possible that he won't die on the way," Liu Jin said expressionlessly." Is that what you mean?"”
Ah Qing stammered, not knowing what to say. She said anxiously,""Your Highness is currently favored by the Emperor. If you rashly kill someone, I'm afraid it will leave an impulsive impression in His Majesty's heart.”
"Moreover, Zhu Anshi has the support of many great Confucians in Yangling, and this matter isn't really his plan. If Your Highness were to act rashly now, I'm afraid you'll be condemned by the Confucians.”
"If they say that His Highness despises the law, despises the imperial power, and impeaches him, what will you do? What should Your Majesty do?"
Liu Jin stood up calmly, glanced at Ah Qing, and said gently,""There are many things in this world that cannot be done. Only a small number of people can do these things.”
"I'm a mortal, I can be impulsive and crazy too. Have you ever been crazy?”
Liu Jin's question stumped Ah Qing.
In her 18 years of life, she had always followed the rules and had never done anything out of line.
Even though she was favored by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, she was still cautious in the palace.
While Ah Qing was still in a daze, Liu Jin had already flicked his sleeves and left.
"Hey!"
"I really envy her."
Ah Qing stomped her foot fiercely. So be it if I die. I'll go all out!
She hurriedly followed Liu Jin out.
At this moment, Liu Jin had already found the commandant of the Jianzhang Cavalry. His handsome face had a hint of killing intent and coldness as he said sternly,"Follow me to do something."
The Jianzhang Cavalry were hesitant. They were only responsible for protecting the safety of the Emperor's grandson. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did not give them the authority to work for Liu Jin.
"If you are still men and soldiers of my Great Han Dynasty, follow me!”
"I will bear all the consequences. It has nothing to do with you!”
These men gripped their weapons tightly. A moment later, the commandant of the Jianzhang Cavalry shouted,"Today, we will go crazy with the world!”
"Ah Qing, lead the way!"
Liu Jin shouted.
"Good!"
Crazy, they were all crazy!
Ah Qing walked on the official road of Chang 'an with Luo Qun in her hand. In a moment, they arrived at a high-gate mansion in the south of the city.
"Smash open this door!"
Liu Jin pointed at the red painted door in front of him, which symbolized power.
The cavalrymen of the Creation Chapter Battalion were all agile and vigorous, pushing open the red painted door in a barbaric manner.
This action immediately alarmed the servants in the mansion.
"Who dares to act so rashly? Do you know that this is the Yang Ling Commandant Zhu Manor?”
Not long after, Zhu Anshi, whose hair and beard were all standing up, also walked out.
Zhu Anshi stared at Liu Jin, and he had an ominous feeling in his heart.
Last night, he and two other people had discussed the assassination of the imperial carriage of the imperial grandson, Liu Jin, in the temple near Weiyang Palace.
To be on the safe side, he didn't do it himself. Instead, he let his henchmen and aides do it.
Even if he failed in the end, he could completely extricate himself from this matter.
After all, he was just his advisor. The worst outcome would be that he did not manage his subordinates strictly, so he would not be implicated.
"Who are you? Why did you come to my Zhu Estate?"
Zhu Anshi suppressed the panic in his heart, even though he had already guessed that the youth in front of him might be the emperor's grandson.
This meant that the assassination attempt by the aide had failed.
He was truly shocked by the power of the Great Han Imperial Family. It had only been half a day, and they were actually able to follow the clues and find him.
However, he had already prepared for it, so he was not flustered.
Coupled with his prestige over at Yang Ling, no matter what, his life should be worry-free.
This risky move was proportional to the cost and reward.
If the assassination was successful, the Eastern Palace would never recover.
If the assassination failed, it was very likely that he would be implicated.
He had already thought of all the ways to escape. Even if the chief justice of the Supreme Court was responsible for the investigation of this case, he could also escape by relying on the relationship between the other two people in the court.
Liu Jin squinted at Zhu Anshi.
He knew who Zhu Anshi was, one of the instigators of the curse of witchcraft.
He didn't want to think about why Zhu Anshi would assassinate him. He wouldn't be able to figure it out even if he thought too much. It would be very tiring.
"My name is Liu Jin."
Liu Jin clasped his hands behind his back and said expressionlessly,"My grandfather is called Liu Che, my grandmother is called Wei Zifu, and my father is called Liu Ju.”
Zhu Anshi saw the killing intent on Liu Jin's face and suddenly shuddered.
"When I returned from patrolling Xianyang, I was assassinated near Chang 'an.”
"I found out that the person who tried to assassinate me was one of your aides.”
Zhu Anshi suppressed the panic in his heart and said,"There's actually such a thing. I'm not strict with my subordinates, so I'll definitely investigate and hand over this person's family to His Highness.”
Liu Jin shook his head and smiled.”
"Now, I suspect that you were the one who ordered me to kill you.”
Zhu Anshi was stunned." Your Highness, you're just suspecting. This matter hasn't been investigated yet. I'm not…" he said nervously.
Liu Jin interrupted him and turned to the Creation Chapter Cavalry,""Do it. Leave him and everyone here alive!”
With that, Liu Jin waved his long sleeves and said,"Kill them all!"”
