"Your Majesty."
"Just now."
"Not only did Xiao Xun want to rape Princess Li Xiu, but he also killed more than a hundred people from the East Chamber.”
Cao Zhengchun said through gritted teeth, his face filled with killing intent.
Zhu Houzhao was a little confused.
Xiao Xun wanted to rape Princess Li Xiu?
And killed more than a hundred people from the East Chamber?
What was going on?
Zhu Houzhao furrowed his brows, and a sense of dignity gradually appeared in his eyes. He asked in a deep voice," Zhuge Littleflower, tell me, what exactly happened?”
"Let Xiao Xun, Shangguan Haitang, and Governor Cao explain the details.”Zhuge Zhengwo said softly," As for the truth, His Majesty should be the one to tell it himself.”
"Humph, you saw that bastard kill my East Military Hall's Black-Clothed Arrow Squad with your own eyes. Did I make it up?”Cao Zhengchun sneered.
Zhuge Littleflower's expression remained the same." I did see Xiao Xun kill a group of East Chamber barbarians with my own eyes. However, there should be a reason for this.”
"What reason?" Cao Zhengchun said angrily," He wanted to rape Princess Li Xiu. The evidence is conclusive. We sent people to arrest him, but not only did he resist arrest, he even killed everyone from the East Chamber. This is the truth!”
Zhu Houzhao frowned and his face turned cold." Enough. Pass the message to Shangguan Haitang."”
He remembered that Zhuge Zhengwo had just mentioned Shangguan Haitang.
"Yes."
Very quickly.
Shangguan Haitang also walked into the Martial Arts Hall and was startled to see Zhu Houzhao sitting cross-legged with his back to everyone.
"Shangguan, tell me, what exactly happened tonight?”Zhu Houzhao ordered coldly. He knew that Shangguan Haitang was the Black No.1 secret agent of the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa, and that the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa had been secretly investigating Princess Li Xiu's group.
Shangguan Haitang collected her thoughts and began to slowly narrate what had happened tonight.
From the time she and Duan Tianya were sent to spy on Princess Li Xiu, to the time they were accidentally hit by the Soul Severing Incense, to the time they were rescued by Xiao Xun, to the time Pi Xiaotian came to arrest them, and in the end, they were killed by Xiao Xun…Everything was described in detail.
As soon as Shangguan Haitang finished speaking, Cao Zhengchun sneered,""Even if what Shangguan Haitang said is true, it can only prove that Duan Tianya and Shangguan Haitang have no ill intentions towards Princess Li Xiu.
But why would Xiao Xun appear in the embassy? Could it be that Zhu Bujue, the Iron-guts Deity Marquis, had also sent them?”
As soon as he finished speaking…
"Oh, Xiao Xun was indeed sent by Zhu Bujue to investigate Princess Li Xiu.”Zhuge Zhengwo said gently," Regarding this matter, this minister and the Empress Dowager both know.”
"Hmm?" Cao Zhengchun suddenly looked at Zhuge Zhengwo with a gloomy expression.
He knew nothing about this!
Zhu Houzhao was deep in thought. He guessed that after he tested Xiao Xun, Zhu Bujue, Zhuge Xiaohua and the others were still worried about Xiao Xun, so they arranged for Xiao Xun to investigate Princess Li Xiu and test him further.
"If he didn't have any ulterior motives, why would he resist arrest? And you killed more than a hundred people from the East Chamber?" Cao Zhengchun said in a deep voice," Your Majesty, this Xiao Xun's master is unknown. The timing he chose to save the Empress Dowager was also very deliberate.
Tonight, he wanted to rape Princess Li Xiu and kill more than a hundred people from the East Chamber. We can't let such a person live!”
"He killed more than a hundred people from the East Chamber?" Zhu Houzhao asked.”
"Not bad!"
Cao Zhengchun nodded and said," Many people, including Zhuge Xiaohua, saw it with their own eyes.”
"One against a hundred…"
Zhu Houzhao secretly assessed Xiao Xun's battle prowess, and felt that with his own strength, he should be able to fight against a hundred.
"Your Majesty, let's listen to Xiao Xun's explanation.”Zhuge Zhengwo said.
Zhu Houzhao paused. He actually believed what Zhuge Zhengwo and Shangguan Haitang had said. However, more than a hundred people from the East Military Hall had died, so they had to give Cao Zhengchun a reasonable explanation.
"Zhen is a little cold. Bring Zhen a robe.”Zhu Houzhao ordered.
"Cold?"
Cao Zhengchun and Shangguan Haitang were stunned.
With Rank-4 strength, he probably would not feel cold even in a world of ice and snow.
Zhuge Zhengwo smiled. He knew that His Majesty didn't want Xiao Xun to recognize him.
"I'm afraid that they've already recognized you.”
Zhuge Zhengwo thought to himself.
Even if he didn't recognize it during the battle, he would have guessed it after thinking about it.
Not long after.
Zhu Houzhao was fully armed. Not only did he put on a loose cloud satin robe, but he also wore a Yi Shan hat.
"Pass it to Xiao Xun."
Zhu Houzhao placed his hands on his hips, opened his robe, and ordered.
Moments later.
Xiao Xun walked into the Martial Arts Practice Hall and recognized Zhu Houzhao at a glance.
"It really is him."
Xiao Xun thought to himself, his expression unchanged.
"Zhen has already disguised himself like this. He definitely won't be able to recognize Zhen.”
Zhu Houzhao's heart was beating faster as he thought to himself. He felt a little uneasy.
"Thousand Households Xiao, tell the Emperor what happened.”Zhuge Zhengwo said.
Xiao Xun nodded slightly and then began to explain.
His story was basically the same as Shangguan Haitang's.
After Xiao Xun finished speaking…
"Your Majesty, he admitted it himself.”Cao Zhengchun sneered." Even if he isn't a pervert, he should still be punished for killing the head of the East Hall's main branch, Xiao Tian, and more than a hundred people from the Black-Robed Arrow Team!”
Zhu Houzhao frowned. He gradually realized the bad influence of killing more than a hundred people from the East Chamber.
"Thousand Housekeeper Xiao, Pi Xiaotian and his men went to arrest you because of Princess Li Xiu's accusation.”Zhuge Zhengwo said," Even if you were wronged, you didn't have to kill anyone. Why did you kill so many people?”
Xiao Xun's expression was calm." The East Chamber isn't here to arrest people. They're here to silence them.”
"Hmm?" Everyone was stunned. Except for Zhu Houzhao, everyone else looked at Xiao Xun.
