After the Imperial Guard brought the assassins in, the eldest prince's face became completely embarrassed.

Logically speaking, professional killers will commit suicide after failing to assassinate the target.

This will achieve the goal of making people unable to check it out!

But the eldest prince did not expect that the assassin he sent was not only not dead, but was also taken to the hall by Chen Xiao!

At this moment, Chen Xiao looked at everyone, then smiled and said to the emperor

"Your Majesty, these assassins are some of the living people who assassinated me during this period. Your Majesty can ask the Imperial Capital Prefecture's identity of these people."

The emperor's face was not very good either, so he looked at the imperial prefect and said:

"Who are these people?"

The imperial capital prefect said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, these people assassinated Mr. Chen that day, and were taken down by Mr. Chen, and sent them to my imperial capital prefecture. After my investigation, I found that these people were border soldiers."

The eldest prince frowned and said, "So what does this have to do with me?"

Chen Xiao smiled and then said, "Interestingly, after investigation, these assassins are not only border soldiers, but also subordinates of the eldest prince. How should you explain this matter?"

The eldest prince sneered and said, "What evidence do you have?"

As soon as the words fell, the imperial capital prefect took out a list and said:

"There are all information about the household registration of these assassins, their military, etc. Whether they are the eldest prince or your subordinates is clear at a glance!"

The eldest prince snorted and said:

"Even if I am my subordinate, what can it mean? Can it mean that you, Mr. Chen, who I sent them to assassinate?

Mr. Chen and you have no grudges or grudges. You just have some verbal conflicts. You won’t let me send someone to assassinate you, right?

Even if it was me this time, it was because of a little conflict, what did it have to do with the corruption of the Arsenal Corporation?"

"Your Highness the eldest prince is so eloquent. Do you mean that you admit that this assassination has something to do with you? Of course, you don't have to rush to refute it.

As the eldest prince said, this time you sent someone to assassinate me, maybe it was because of some of our verbal conflicts. So what about the last time?

Last time I was ordered by His Majesty to investigate the corruption of the Arsenal Corporation, I happened to be assassinated by an assassin.

And after the assassin's identity was confirmed, he was still a soldier on the border. He was still your subordinate!

This is a coincidence. I have never seen you and I have seen you before. We should have no conflicts, right?

So why, you would send someone to assassinate me at that time? Can the eldest prince give me an explanation?"

Hearing Chen Xiao’s words, the eldest prince was stunned. He thought for a long time, but he didn’t say anything else.

The reason is very simple. The matter of the assassin being his subordinate has been found out.

He can't defend himself!

That is to say, Chen Xiao was sent to assassinate these two times.

The second time he could be said to have a verbal conflict with Chen Xiao, so he felt resentful and wanted to kill Chen Xiao.

The last time I sent an assassin to kill Chen Xiao, I really couldn't explain it. The only possibility was that Chen Xiao's investigation into the Arsenal and the eldest prince had something to do with his investigation into the Arsenal.

Therefore, the eldest prince did this!

The emperor has already understood it, and the ministers have also understood it.

The eldest prince is not a fool either. Now any rebuttal or explanation is useless.

No smart people can believe his words, and as a smart person, he will no longer be stupid enough to say these things to defend himself.

He simply sighed.

He knelt slowly on the ground and said to the emperor:

"Father, my son is calm, my son is guilty, please punish me!"

He said that and fell to the ground!

Chen Xiao was even surprised that he could be so suddenly calm about his crime.

Shouldn't you justify it? Is this a bit too fast?

Of course, this also proves from the indirectly that it is the eldest prince who is quite bold in his actions, and it may be that he is very scheming.

But after his words were finished, the emperor above was so angry that his face turned red.

The prince he values ​​most is actually corrupt?

This huge world may be his in the future, but he is still corruption under such circumstances?

This made the emperor a little confused.

After a long time, the emperor spoke, "Why?"

The eldest prince below was silent. What is there to explain such a thing? To be honest, I can't explain it.

But the more he did this, the more difficult the emperor was, because the emperor had no choice but to decide how to deal with this matter.

After a long silence, the emperor spoke:

"From now on, you are confined! Without my permission, you are not allowed to step out of the house."

The eldest prince paused and then spoke, "Yes~"

Then the eldest prince looked up and looked at Chen Xiao calmly, without any concealment of the hatred in his eyes.

Today's morning court ended in this depressing atmosphere.

The emperor left and returned to the imperial study room.

Chen Xiao wanted to see him, but the emperor refused.

Chen Xiao had no choice but to go to Jiutian Palace and have a good chat with the Ninth Princess.

The Ninth Princess sighed and said:

"I can understand the discomfort of my father. After all, the prince he is most optimistic about actually did such a thing, which must be heartbreaking for him."

"These princes are not good, there is no way!" Chen Xiao smiled, not very concerned about this matter.

Long Jiuling sighed and said nothing.

Until the afternoon, when Chen Xiao was planning to leave the palace, a eunuch suddenly came to invite Chen Xiao to the imperial study room.

Chen Xiao knew that the emperor must have something to explain, so he went to the imperial study room.

In the imperial study room, the emperor adjusted his state and restored his majestic appearance.

After seeing Chen Xiao, he nodded slightly and said:

"I regret that you went to investigate this matter!"

Chen Xiao curled his lips and said nothing.

"I am extremely disappointed in these princes." The emperor spoke.

Chen Xiao smiled and said, "Your Majesty, how many more will you give birth?"

The emperor glared at Chen Xiao and said, "I asked you to come because I wanted to talk about your marriage with Jiuer!"

"What's wrong? There is any change?" Chen Xiao was anxious!

The emperor shook his head: "No, I decided that you and Jiuer will get married soon!"

"Well? Why is Your Majesty even more anxious than me? The eldest prince's matter is not uncomfortable?" Chen Xiao felt strange!

The emperor spoke seriously: "I believe in you. I want you to get married so soon, so of course there is a reason. After marriage, you will be my son-in-law. I hope you can help me and assist the prince!"

"Prince?"

Chen Xiao was puzzled and asked, "Which prince?"

"The eldest prince has no country in his heart, he only covets the throne, and does not hesitate to destroy the weapon foundation... It is not available!"

"The second prince is only scheming, has no courage, and has no chance of a high position."

"The third prince is brave but not wise, let alone."

"In order to achieve his goal, the fifth prince is willing to harm the interests of the country and cannot be overestimated."

"Only the seventh son... is relatively moderate. But compared with them, although they are not very talented, they have no such great mistakes as they do!"

Hearing this, Chen Xiao understood and said:

"Your Majesty wants to establish the Seventh Prince?"

The emperor did not directly answer:

"Although he is heartless and even a little confused on weekdays, he can't be much bad. If a talented person and some loyal ministers assist him, he will never be worse than other princes inheriting the throne!"

Chen Xiao nodded, thinking it made sense!

"But Your Majesty, I am in the court. After marrying Jiuer, I just want to be a free and carefree person!
Chapter completed!
