"A'man, this is a good thing." Murong Kai looked at his beloved girl with sadness in her eyes and couldn't help but raise his hand and touch her hair.
Ah Man looked up, and her eyes, which were once as bright as stars, were now filled with tears.
"Ah Man, your father's attitude is a good thing for us. Let's not talk about his feelings for you for now. Just talking about his attitude, it is obvious that he is protecting you now, so we can rely on his protection to do something."
Murong Kai spoke gently and seemed very calm, but in fact no one knew that when he said these words, he was extremely heartbroken and wished he could be sad for Ah Man.
"Are you talking about Zhen Junran?"
"Well, I've had them brought here. After the interrogation, I'll let them go and fight each other."
"This..." Murong Kai's bold suggestion surprised Ah Man. She made a move to make the general of the Beijing Guard Camp and General An Guo fight each other. Is this really a good idea? And what about the emperor, what will his attitude be
If it was before, Ah Man would not have such concerns at all, because everyone knew that her father loved her the most. But now, she was not sure who was the most important in his heart, her or General An Guo and the Beijing Guard Camp.
"Don't think about it. General Anguo's Mansion must pay the price for the assassination. My girl cannot be bullied by anyone who wants to, even if it's pretending." Murong Kai said softly when he saw Ah Man was still in a daze.
"It's a good opportunity to test your position in your father's heart."
"I'm afraid that if I'm not as good as General Anguo and the others, then..."
"Don't worry, I'm here. No matter what your father thinks, if the General Anguo's Mansion dares to attack you this time, you must be prepared to bear the price."
Murong Kai was confident and had a faint smile on his face, but in fact he had already made plans in his heart. As he said, he must make General Anguo's Mansion pay the price.
If his father couldn't give Ah Man justice, then he would.
"It's up to you. If there's anything you need me to do, just let me know." He hurried back to the palace early in the morning, encountered an assassination on the way, and had several battles with his father. Ah Man felt so tired that he really wanted to be a hands-off boss.
"Xuan'er is asleep, you should go to sleep too. What I need you to do now is to be well." The heartwarming words instantly warmed Ah Man's dry heart. She now felt that bringing Murong Kai into the palace was the wisest thing she had ever done.
With her, she has mountains by her side; with him, she doesn't have to work too hard.
Murong Kai gently coaxed Ah Man to go and have a rest, but he himself was busy all day long. After returning to the palace, Ah Man's things needed to be put away, Xuan'er's things also needed to be put away, and there were also palace matters. Concubine Zhu sent him the golden seal for the palace. After Ah Man fell asleep, he had to finish the things she needed to deal with.
By the time he had taken a look at what had happened in the palace today, the assassin who was going to kill them had already been brought in.
"Tell me, who asked you to assassinate the princess?" Murong Kai spoke slowly, but his words were shocking. One of the two assassins who had just kneeled on the ground was stimulated and stood up.
"What did you say, Princess?"
"If you're not a princess, you can still live."
"We didn't assassinate the princess, but just a young lady from a wealthy family." The other assassin, who was still kneeling on the ground calmly, spoke with certainty, as if the assassination of the princess would not be established as long as they did not admit it.
"A young lady from a wealthy family would use the palace's ceremonial guards? A young lady from a wealthy family would bring you into the palace?" Murong Kai looked at the two stupid assassins in front of him with sarcasm, and his words were full of sympathy.
"The person we assassinated was really a daughter of a wealthy family. Moreover, the family said that we didn't need to really assassinate her, but just pretend to do it, and then someone would rescue the daughter. After the assassination, he would give us three hundred taels of silver."
The assassin stood up and explained with a confused look on his face, but as he explained, he himself noticed something unusual.
