Lu Mingwei was too lazy to pay attention to Lu Zhiyue. He frowned and ordered the two young eunuchs to help Lu Zhiyue to rest in the side hall.
Lu Zhi took a few steps up the mountain, bowed and said to Lu Mingwei: "Father, please forgive me, but the princess has been seriously injured and is still in a coma. I am really anxious and angry in my heart, so I can't wait to ask. I don't know if I can do it now." Have you caught the assassin?"
"I summoned you to the palace because I also want to let you know the ins and outs of today's hunting ground," Lu Mingwei said, looking at Zhao Ruhai, "Go and call Deng Jingfeng in."
"Yes, I obey your orders." Zhao Ruhai bowed down in a hurry and then quickly ushered in Deng Jingfeng.
"The general has met Long Live Lord, Prince Ning, Prince Gong and Prince Bao." Deng Jingfeng came in and was busy saluting everyone.
"Okay, tell me, what are the results of today's case regarding the assassination of the princess?" Lu Mingwei waved his hand to Deng Jingfeng impatiently.
"Yes, long live your grace," Deng Jingfeng bowed and continued, "After the princess was assassinated, the general followed the order of long live Lord and quickly put the hunting ground in the western suburbs under martial law. No matter whether it was a noble son, noble daughter, or a bodyguard, The generals all ordered to search one by one, and sure enough, a suspicious guard was found in Prince Yuanjun's tent. His subordinates ordered people to interrogate him on the spot. Sure enough, the guard couldn't stand the torture, and the whole story was revealed. The guard was originally from the prince's palace many years ago. One of the guards was rejected by the prince because of unclean hands and feet and was expelled. From then on, he lived in poverty. The guard was narrow-minded and always held a grudge against the prince. After the prince entered the East Palace, the guard came to the door and begged the prince to consider his old relationship and take him in. , the prince was unwilling, and ordered his servants to beat him out, which made the guard hate him even more. Later, by chance, the guard joined the Yuanjun Palace as a guard. This year was also the first time to accompany the young prince of the Yuanjun Palace. I went down to the hunting ground, and I met my old master again on the hunting ground. I felt uneasy and couldn't help but attack the prince."
Lu Zhishan asked in a cold voice: "Where is the guard? Commander Deng, please bring him over. I have a few questions I want to ask him on the spot."
Deng Jingfeng looked embarrassed and said, "I'd like to inform Prince Ning that the guard just committed suicide by taking poison."
"You bastard! You can't even keep a guard under control!" Lu Mingwei suddenly smashed the tea bowl in his hand into Deng Jingfeng's face and shouted coldly, "What do I do with this useless thing like you?!"
"Long live the Lord to calm down!" Deng Jingfeng didn't bother to wipe the blood on his forehead, he was too busy knelt down and kowtowed, "The guard embedded the poison in his teeth. He was obviously running to die. He was incompetent. When he found out, the guard The poison had penetrated into his lungs and he died within a short time.”
"Since the guard is already dead, it's the same thing to call up the guards from my palace. They were all here when the incident happened," Lu Zhishan said again, looking at Deng Jingfeng's hesitant expression, Lu Zhishan sneered and said, "What? Could it be that all the guards in my palace also committed suicide by taking poison?"
"The guards of Prince Ning's Palace and the guards of the East Palace are in trouble. I have ordered them to be executed." Before Deng Jingfeng could reply, Lu Mingwei looked at Lu Zhishan and said calmly, "Does Prince Ning think I handled it improperly?"
Lu Zhishan froze, then knelt down on his knees and said respectfully: "Father is wise, and that kid's bodyguard is not good enough to protect the Lord, so he deserves to die. Father handled it very well, but..."
