The imperial doctors secretly swallowed saliva, and sweat had been seen on their foreheads.

People familiar with Nie Hong know that when he is angry, there is often room for maneuver, but if he looks calm, it proves that he is really angry.

The "meritorious" Wen Xiao has fainted in Nie Hong's arms. One second before she lost consciousness, she had only one idea.

It's not human's job to block the emperor's knife

Half an hour later.

The palace on fire had long been enclosed, and the fire was extinguished, leaving only scorched wood where it burned badly.

Most of the assassins were captured by the imperial guards. Unfortunately, they frothed and died in a quarter of an hour. Finally, the only thing left was the fake bodyguard who hurt Wen Xiao.

The imperial doctor also saw it and said that he had not taken the poison. I think the people behind the scenes were afraid that he would poison himself before he could take action.

The assassin was put into a firewood room. The imperial forest army on the third floor and the third floor surrounded the small firewood room like an iron bucket, waiting for the king to judge it in person.

"Look, don't let him die," the little leader of the imperial forest army guarding the firewood room remembered His Majesty's dark eyes and his voice that sounded calm but actually surging. "First break the hamstring, wear the lute bone with black iron, and give him what to eat. Don't starve people to death. He has to live until I interrogate him in person."

It was a hot summer, but the little leader shivered.

——

Capital, King's mansion.

King Jing walked back and forth in his study with a gloomy face.

"By Nie Hong's means, it's sooner or later to find out about the king," he said with a overcast face. He didn't even bother to call, and his expression was obviously a little restless. "How's the assassin? Did he kill him?"

"If you return to your highness, the imperial guards have been around. Even the food is made by the people in the imperial dining room. The imperial doctor has carefully seen it and then brought it in by a specially assigned person to try it. There is no way to start," said the staff standing in front with a bitter face. "Now I can only hope that he will take into account the lives of his family and don't give the prince out."

King Jing clenched his teeth, obviously not very satisfied with this statement.

"What about that woman? Does she mean that she has a lot of eyeliner in the harem?" King Wang sat on the chair, her fingers thumping against the handle. "My snake man was brought in by her. Under scrutiny, she did not want to get rid of the relationship."

"I went down to inquire. Now in the harem, imperial concubine Wen's family is the only one, and the Miss Su's family is just a concubine. I don't think she can help us," the staff swallowed his saliva and said, "That day, after she led the snake keeper in, she left in a hurry. Now the palace is heavily guarded. Your majesty personally ordered that any palace man with suspicious behavior be thrown into the Department of careful punishment for interrogation. Now it's not easy to contact her again."

King Jing's face was black and black, and his knuckles were pale because he held them too hard.

"Your Highness, don't be impatient," the staff hesitated and said, "my subordinates have another way, but it's risky..."

King Jing raised his head and looked at him directly, "say!"

"Now your Highness has torn the skin with your majesty. With your Majesty's temperament, you can find a hundred reasons to deal with your highness only by doubt. Moreover, he has human and material evidence in his hand. His subordinates think that since he has reached this point, it's better not to do two things... Let go!"
