Chapter 30
"Lord Huai, why are you here?" King De frowned, although he knew that it was his birthday that King Huai came to the mansion to celebrate his birthday, but he didn't want to be alarmed by something in his mansion.

Nangong Ling has always been known for being cruel and ruthless in the court, and he is indifferent to other things, let alone his family affairs.

I'm afraid that apart from the emperor, no one in the court can make Nangong Ling look down on him.

Even for a prime minister like Su Chao who holds the military power and overwhelms the court, there are not many in the whole court that he can look up to, even the princes and nobles, except Nangong Ling.

"I heard that the palace has undergone major changes, so I came here to take a look. I don't know if my uncle is safe?" Nangong Ling first asked about King De's situation. After all, King De is the uncle of the current emperor, and Nangong Ling is the son of the current emperor. Although the throne is the same, But how to say De Wang is also his elder, so he should also greet De Wang first.

"Oh, I'm fine." De Wang's expression returned to normal, but he was thinking about why Nangong Ling came at this time.

His intuition told him that this was definitely not a coincidence.

Although he came to the palace to celebrate his birthday, basically all the nobles in the royal capital came, and Nangong Ling came here just out of politeness, he had no contact with Nangong Lingke.

Moreover, he had also heard the rumors about Nangong Ling outside, and knew that this junior should not be underestimated.

What's more, there is no such thing as a simple person who can be valued by Su Chao.So thinking of this, De Wang naturally became more vigilant towards Nangong Ling: "I didn't expect this to alarm even you."

"Where is the uncle, as a junior, naturally he must pay attention to the safety of the uncle, otherwise the emperor will blame me if he finds out."

Although Nangong Ling's answer was reasonable, but for some reason, King De always felt unnatural when he heard his words, and subconsciously wanted to take precautions.

"Actually, it's not a big deal." King De really didn't want Nangong Ling to intervene.

But I heard Nangong Ling say: "Uncle is out of touch when he says that. Since there is a bold assassin who dares to assassinate uncle, it will not be a big deal. The reason why I came here today is to bring this assassin to uncle. here."

As soon as he said this, everyone present was shocked.

However, before anyone else could speak, Nangong Ling ordered his servants: "Come on, bring me here."

As soon as he finished speaking, several servants immediately brought in a drenched man in black.

"Look, uncle, is this the one who assassinated you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the servants immediately tore off the face scarf of the man in black.King De had never really seen the face of the man in black, but he nodded immediately when he saw this: "Yes, this is the man."

Nangong Mingxuan never expected that things would turn out like this, and was anxious: "How is it possible, the assassin has already been found."

After finishing speaking, he didn't care too much, and went over to lift the clothes off the back of the black man who had fallen on the ground, and sure enough, he saw a terrible wound on his back.

Nangong Ming said: "Look, at that time, the thief was stabbed by my father, and there was still a wound on his back."

"A wound?" Nangong Ling came over, leaned over to check the wound on the corpse, and then asked De Wang, "Dare to ask uncle, what kind of weapon was that thief stabbed at that time?"

"It's the sleeve arrow."

"That's wrong." Nangong Ling used two fingers to separate the wound on the back of the corpse on the ground, "Everyone, please see that the arrow on the sleeve is pointed, so the wound must be wide on the outside and narrow on the inside, and this wound is obviously consistent inside and outside. Injured by a sharp weapon like a knife. And the sleeve arrow is narrow, the wound is wide, obviously it doesn't match. If my uncle still has the same sleeve arrow, then you can use it for comparison and see if I'm right wrong."

Hearing this, De Wang immediately asked his subordinates to bring the sleeve arrows, and after a simple comparison, he found that it was exactly as Nangong Ling said.

"It's really different." King De asserted.

As soon as King De's words fell, Nan Gongcheng broke free and dragged him to his subordinates, and came to hug King De's thigh: "Father, my son said that my son was wronged, so now we can prove my son's innocence."

King De naturally ignored him.

Nangong Ling also said: "This shows that this person is not the one who assassinated my uncle tonight. As for why he was caught, I can only ask my uncle's son."

King De's complexion darkened. In fact, it's not that he didn't think that Nangong Mingxuan was playing tricks on today's incident, but he had solid evidence, so even if he had doubts, he really couldn't say anything more.

It's not that he doesn't know that his son is different from Nangong Cheng. He has always thought deeply about the city. If he really wants to fight, Cheng'er will definitely not be his opponent. But because of this, King De hates this son. .

Raising tigers is a danger, so it's not about his own parents and children.

What's more, he can design and frame his elder brother for his own benefit, so he is not sure whether he will deal with his biological father for his own benefit in the future.

"Tell me, what's going on here?" De Wang asked sharply, from the tone of his voice, it could be seen that he was really merciless.

Nangong Mingxuan knelt on the ground all of a sudden, although it was a little unexpected, he was not at a loss, but replied: "If you go back to your father, the son did find this person in the elder brother's room, why did Prince Huai also bring an assassin?" , My son doesn’t understand that.” He glanced at the person Nangong Ling brought, and said, “Besides, is it true that Prince Huai brought the person who assassinated Daddy?”

"So you doubt me?" Nangong Ling's eyes were cold. As expected, Nangong Mingxuan was indeed difficult to deal with.

Nangong Mingxuan was not afraid of his gaze, but said confidently: "Then please show me evidence to prove that it is this person, so that everyone can feel at ease, and I am willing to be punished."

With a "bang", something was thrown in front of Nangong Mingxuan.

Nangong Mingxuan was taken aback, but quickly saw that what was thrown on the ground was a bloody sleeve arrow, and the blood on it had solidified into black, and it seemed that it had been stained for some time.

Nangong Ling didn't even look at Nangong Mingxuan, and said directly to King De, "I found this from this assassin. Please, uncle, take a closer look to see if it belongs to uncle."

"bring here."

Immediately, a servant picked up the sleeve arrow and handed it to King De, who only took one look and made a conclusion: "That's right, this is exactly what I shot at the assassin."

King De glared at Nangong Mingxuan: "What else do you have to say?"

Although Nangong Mingxuan was shocked, he also calmed down, and could only insist that he didn't know: "Father, my son doesn't know what's going on. If Dad can't do it, lock him up. My son is willing to accept investigation , I believe that justice is at ease in people's hearts, and one day the truth will be revealed."

Nangong Mingxuan decided to retreat, but De Wang said "huh", now there is no evidence, and it is inconvenient for him to really lock up this son.But since Cheng'er is fine, let's make a note of this matter first, and check it later when I have a chance.

He said to Nangong Mingxuan angrily: "Let's forget about this matter in advance. If you let me know that you still dare to make trouble like this in the future and wrong others indiscriminately, then I will definitely not let you go."

"Yes, my son knew his mistake, and my son resigned." Nangong Mingxuan felt chilled when he heard this. Although he was not locked up, his father already suspected that he did it after thinking about it.

The matter had developed to this point, and it was inconvenient for him to stay for a long time, so he could only let his own body carry the corpse away.

Before leaving, he glanced at Nangong Ling, but Nangong Ling didn't look at him.

This matter was going smoothly, but He Zeng wanted to kill Cheng Yaojin halfway.Nangong Mingxuan and Nangong Ling had only met each other a few times, and he had never paid much attention to him before, but after a closer look today, he seemed familiar.

Where did you see it?
He thought about it carefully, wasn't it the day when he took Yanran and Ruiran to go boating together, and then met the two people on the other boat?

Originally, he ordered the lake to be sealed off that day and no other boats were allowed to pass, so he also found it strange that these two people suddenly appeared. It is not clear what identity it is.

Nangong Mingxuan has always remembered this matter, and he has doubts in his heart, but now that he sees Nangong Mingxuan, he understands it.

But why did he suddenly show up today?It's not that he has never heard of Nangong Ling's reputation. If Nangong Cheng has Nangong Ling's help, then even if he marries Su Ruiran, he has no [-]% chance of winning with Su Chao's help.

Su Chao and Nangong Ling are the only two forces in the court who can fight against each other.

The two also have military merits, and they also hold military power when they enter and exit the battlefield.

Although the number of troops in Nangong Ling's hands is far less than that of Su Chao, Nangong Ling has a fearsome army in his hands, famous assassins, with only 3000 people, but each of them is a master who can defeat a hundred with one.It's more like a killer organization than an army.

It is said that there are many things that are not convenient for the current emperor to come forward, and all of them are handed over to Nangong Ling and his subordinates. It is precisely because of this that Nangong Ling is deeply valued by the current emperor.

And Nangong Ling and Su Chao are equivalent to two forces that restrict each other in the court. Su Chao is the prime minister. If no one can compete with him, then the prime minister who holds military power can completely change the court and usurp the throne.

So the two of them, no matter which one is a headache opponent.

But no matter who it is, as long as they block their own way, they will die.

"Now that the truth has come to light, then I will take my leave first." Nangong Ling turned around and left after speaking, but he had expected that King De would definitely stop him, and as expected, King De said as soon as he turned around, "Wait a minute. "

Nangong Ling turned around: "Uncle, what else do you want?"

"I don't dare to obey the order, but I just have a few words to say to you, I wonder if you would like to honor me."

"Uncle is too polite."

And at this moment, Su Chao who was sitting on the side also stood up: "In that case, then I will retire first."

Doesn't he also have something to say to himself?Nangong Ling watched Su Chao salute and leave, the whole process was neat and tidy, and he didn't take a second look at himself.

"You all should step down too, Duke Huai and I have something to say alone."

King De gave an order, and all the servants in the room retreated immediately, including Nan Gongcheng.

It's just that Nangong Cheng was still a little dull when he left, and it seemed that he hadn't completely recovered from the panic.I'm afraid he still hasn't figured out who planned to murder him.

De Wang could only sigh at this, and when everyone left and closed the door, he said to Nangong Ling in a very helpless tone: "You have also seen that my son really does not live up to it at all."

"But my uncle always intended him to be his son."

"It doesn't matter if it's intentional, after all, he's not that material, I just hope that someone will help him in the future." De Wang sighed, his tone suddenly softened, "I seldom tell people what I say from the bottom of my heart. Since I told you today, I thank you for your help. No matter what your plan is, I will remember your favor."

"What did Uncle say, I just don't understand one thing, Uncle has always had no disputes with others, and who will send someone to assassinate Uncle?"

De Wang was silent for a while, and finally shook his head: "As you said, I also find this strange."
