Chapter 562 Li Zhong
[Changed to four-update mode starting today]

"It's the duty of a villain to share the prince's worries!" Chen Dongyi stood up and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

"Listening to Sir, it is better than studying for ten years, but... I am going to the court now. How can I help Zhu Xiuyuan? Sir, please teach me!"

Chen Dongyi smiled slightly and said a lot to King Jinling like this.

King Jinling nodded repeatedly, praised Chen Dongyi angrily, and then left the palace and entered the palace, preparing to participate in this court meeting.

Forbidden City.

Be careful.

All the ministers gathered together, and the civil and military officials stood on their left and right.

On the imperial steps, Emperor Chen and Concubine You were also sitting there.

In addition, Liang Guo's deputy envoy also came. At this moment, he was standing in the middle of the hall, impassioned, saliva flying, his voice and gestures were very loud.

It feels like being at home.

"...At the entrance of Wuyi Lane, in front of Dong Yulou's gate, I, King Qian of the Liang Kingdom, as an envoy of the Liang Kingdom, was almost assassinated! Fortunately, there was no danger, and the assassin failed to succeed, but I, the King Qian of the Liang Kingdom, are still unconscious. !”

"As we all know, the Dong Yu Tower in Wuyi Lane is the property of Uncle Jiang Cheng in your country, and that place was also brought there by Uncle Jiang Cheng!"

"If this is a coincidence, it is too much! Uncle Jiang Cheng colluded with assassins in an attempt to assassinate our envoy from the Liang Kingdom. His crime is grave! The foreign ministers should arrest Uncle Jiang Cheng and bring him to justice, and escort him to Daliang and hand him over to His Majesty the Liang Kingdom. Deal with it!"

Liang Guo's Deputy Envoy spoke fiercely, but insisted that this was Zhu Xiuyuan's conspiracy.

Under the main hall, all the ministers did not move and kept their heads bowed.

However, the minds of many ministers have begun to become active... This is really a godsend opportunity.

But now, it's not the time to pounce on them and bite them. They still need a leader, and they also need to choose a good time.

As for the candidate for the leader, the ministers looked at it privately, and finally converged on the King of Jinling...

On the imperial steps, Chen Huang and You Guifei exchanged glances.

Chen Huang patted the armrest of the dragon chair, sighed slightly, and then looked at Zhu Xiuyuan below: "Zhu Aiqing, what do you have to say?"

Zhu Xiuyuan came out to pay homage and said, "Your Majesty, I didn't know anything about the assassination in advance. I went to Dong Yulou for a short break. It was just a temporary decision. How could I collude with the assassin?"

"Furthermore, in that assassination, I was almost killed on the spot. Even if I colluded with the assassin, there was no need to kill myself!"

"The envoy from the Liang State, King Qian Li Jiye, has a very good personal relationship with me, and I am also the receptionist for the envoys from the Liang State. Several kings were assassinated, and no matter what, I will not be able to get away with it!"

"If it is said that the minister colluded with the assassin, there is no reason at all! Right now, we should urgently find out the truth and give an explanation to Liang Guo's envoy and His Majesty Liang Guo. Instead of yelling at the minister, so as to delay the opportunity to capture the assassin!"

Zhu Xiuyuan bowed again to indicate that he had finished speaking.

"What nonsense!"

Just after Zhu Xiuyuan finished his worship, another voice suddenly sounded from above the main hall. The voice was loud and metallic, which made people feel uncomfortable when they heard it.

However, this voice did not come from the deputy envoy of Liang Guo, but from the Prime Minister Li Zhong who rarely spoke in court!
Li Zhong finally took action.

"Your Majesty, if the envoy from the Liang Kingdom is ill, there will be a big fight between Chen and the Liang Kingdom. And at that time, who will be reaping the benefits? I believe everyone has guessed it, it must be the Yan Kingdom!"

Li Zhong was old and strong. In just two sentences, he elevated this matter to a serious "international incident" involving the three kingdoms of Liang, Yan, and Chen.

"Uncle Jiang Cheng, it was you who accompanied the Liang envoy, and it was you who took the Liang envoy to the gate of Dong Yulou! No matter how you argue, this is an indelible fact!" "Your Majesty, in my opinion, Jiang Chengbo is a spy of the Yan State, and his purpose is to incite the hatred between me, Da Chen, and the Liang State, and to use weapons, so that he can reap the benefits of the Yan State!"

"Your Majesty, I am determined to destroy the Yan State! In order to thwart the Yan State's plot, I sincerely ask your Majesty to agree to the request of the deputy envoy of the Liang State and take away Uncle Jiang Cheng to calm the anger of the Liang State."

Li Zhong held his hand again, then returned to his original position, standing there quietly, as if the person who just came out to speak was not him.

As soon as Li Zhong finished speaking, the eyes of those active ministers suddenly lit up.

Finally a heavyweight "leader" has arrived!
Originally, they wanted to wait for the King of Jinling to come out angrily and scold Uncle Jiang Cheng for harming the country, and then they would all pounce on him and bite him.

Unexpectedly, the Prime Minister of the State came out. This leader was much more senior than the King of Jinling.

Therefore, the excitement in their hearts was beyond words, and they were ready to jump out and second the proposal.

"His Majesty!"

But at this time, the deputy envoy of Liang State suddenly spoke, disrupting the rhythm of the ministers.

They couldn't help but stop and listen to what Liang Guo's deputy envoy said.

"I am the king of the Liang Kingdom, and His Majesty the Liang Kingdom values ​​it very much. If your country does not give a reasonable explanation, the foreign ministers think that my Majesty the Liang Kingdom may not hesitate to send troops south. Even if the people are dying, they must ask for an explanation!"

The words of Deputy Envoy Liang contained a strong sense of threat.

As we all know, the military power of Liang State is the strongest among all the countries in the world.

With the power of one country, Liang State not only resisted the Northern Yuan Dynasty in the north and resisted Tibet in the south, but also suppressed the countries in the Western Regions in the west...

With such military strength, even if the ten Chen Kingdoms put together, they probably wouldn't be able to match it!

Chen Huang, who was high up on the imperial steps, couldn't help but change his expression. He grabbed the armrests of the dragon chair with both hands and couldn't help but squeeze them tightly, with veins popping out.

No matter what, he is still the dignified emperor of the Chen Kingdom and the king of a country!
As a result, in the court hall of his own court, he was actually threatened by a foreign minister...

What makes people crazy is that after being threatened, he didn't dare to yell and reprimand him back, but he still had to be careful... Is this the dignified king of a country?

No, this is a coward!
At this moment, Chen Huang's heart was burning.

But Liang Guo’s military strength... eh!

Chen Huang had veins popping out in his hands. He grasped the armrests of the dragon chair and closed his eyes hard...

"Your Majesty, Uncle Jiang Cheng colluded with assassins to murder the envoy of the Liang Kingdom. He is guilty of an unforgivable crime!"

"Uncle Jiangcheng is a spy of the Yan State, intending to incite the swordsmanship of Liang and Chen. He should be deprived of his title and demoted to a commoner, and then sent to the Liang State to calm the anger of His Majesty the Liang State!"

"I am still determined to destroy the Yan Kingdom. Your Majesty, I must not fall into the Yan people's tricks!"

"Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to agree to the request of Liang Guo's deputy envoy to take Jiang Chengbo away and let Liang Guo dispose of him, so as to calm down the swords and smash the conspiracy of the Yan people!"

"I second the proposal!"...

In an instant, most of the civil and military personnel in the court jumped out.

Zhu Xiuyuan was criticized verbally and sharply. He not only accused Zhu Xiuyuan of "colluding with assassins", but also labeled him as a "spy of the Yan State".
