Chapter 712: Tough!
Princess Changping couldn't help but frown as she looked at Chu Ning, who had a calm expression on his face.
This guy was so confident and came to persuade her in person. Could it be that he had something on her?
She narrowed her eyes and snorted coldly, looking at Chu Ning provocatively: "If this princess doesn't agree, do you really dare to arrest someone?"
"Even if Ran Ming is powerful, you only have so few people around you. Do you think Ran Ming can beat a thousand people alone?"
"This princess has a thousand guards around her, and Ran Ming's two fists are no match for four hands!"
She felt that Chu Ning was trying to scare her.
She wanted to see what Chu Ning had up his sleeve!
Chu Ning laughed out loud when he heard this, shook his head and said, "Princess Changping may have forgotten one thing."
"what's up?"
"Because of the murder of King Wu, Li Shiming, Ji Yinghao, Di Ying, Ren Wenxuan and the king are all trapped in Chang'an City and cannot return home."
Chu Ning said with a playful smile: "If I say that you are the murderer and ask them to send people to arrest you, do you think they will do it?"
"This……"
Princess Changping was stunned on the spot.
Of course, those messengers were eager to get to the bottom of the matter and leave the place as soon as possible.
Once Chu Ning really asks those people to borrow troops, the other party will definitely agree.
By then, the thousand men under her command would have to face the siege of thousands of people.
The advantage in numbers is not on her side.
While thinking, Chu Ning smiled and said, "There is one more thing. If I tell this to the Marquis of Guanjun, do you think he will lend me soldiers to capture the people?"
Worried that Princess Changping would remain stubborn, Chu Ning dealt her another hard blow.
Princess Changping, who had originally wanted to back out, suddenly became like a deflated ball. All her energy disappeared and a look of helplessness appeared on her face.
Although she has a straightforward personality and never likes being forced, she knows that she has no power to fight back when faced with Chu Ning's endless tricks.
"That's it!"
Princess Changping took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, glared at Chu Ning fiercely, and snorted coldly:
"I will listen to you this time and take the initiative to find the Emperor of Han, but you must go with me!"
After all, it was a serious crime of murder. If Chu Ning was not around, she couldn't guarantee that Liu Che would let it go.
Even though the State of Zhao was destroyed, when she killed someone, that guy was still the King of Wu.
The Han Dynasty couldn't afford to lose face.
We must find a third person to persuade them on the spot.
"Don't worry, since I came here on my own initiative, I will naturally take responsibility for this matter to the end."
Chu Ning stood up and gestured with his hand: "Let's go, I will accompany Princess Changping on this trip."
"That's better!" Princess Changping walked out with a proud look on her face.
Chu Ning laughed and followed.
Outside the hall, Ran Ming saw the two people coming out and finally he felt relieved.
He thought the two would end up chatting in the backyard house.
Patting his chest, Ran Ming calmed himself down and immediately followed.
The group rode towards the palace.
Under the cover of night, the hurried sound of horse hooves was like heavy rain hitting the ground, making a clattering sound.
Imperial Palace, Weiyang Palace.
The flickering candlelight illuminated the stern face of Liu Che in the hall, who was sometimes writing furiously, and sometimes holding the pen in deep thought.
There were mountains of memorials on the desk, all waiting for Liu Ce's review.
Suddenly, an official's voice came from outside the palace: "Your Majesty, Princess Changping of the Great Qin State and His Royal Highness the King of Chu of the State of Chu request an audience."
It's so late, what are these two people doing here?
Liu Che raised his eyebrows, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He put down the hand holding the pen, took a deep breath, and tried hard to suppress his inner emotions.
"Let them in."
"Creaky~" The palace door was pushed open, and Chu Ning and Princess Changping stepped in at the same time.
"Greetings to His Majesty the Emperor of Han!"
Liu Che glanced at the two of them and said calmly, "No need to be so polite. You came to visit me so late at night, so I guess you must have something important to tell me!"
Chu Ning said with a serious face: "I have found the murderer who killed King Wu!"
As soon as these words came out, Liu Che's eyes lit up, and he stood up excitedly from his seat and asked quickly, "Who did this?"
Chu Ning turned to look at Princess Changping, the meaning was self-evident.
Liu Che seemed to be stunned.
is her!
How could it be her!
He had originally made up his mind that he would severely punish anyone who killed the King of Wu unless it was Princess Changping.
But things went against one's wishes, and the person who killed King Wu happened to be Princess Changping.
This is the most beloved princess of the Qin Emperor!
Not only was he proficient in military tactics and had superb martial arts, he also enjoyed a high prestige in the army.
He did not dare, and could not, severely punish Princess Changping.
But if the murderer is found and not punished, where will the face of the Han Dynasty be?
Thinking of this, Liu Che's eyes turned, and suddenly his eyes turned cold, staring at Chu Ning and scolded:
"What nonsense!"
"Princess Changping is a princess of the Qin Dynasty. Why did she want to kill the King of Wu?"
"King Chu, is it because you can't find the murderer that you deliberately slandered Princess Changping?"
As long as she doesn't admit it, Princess Changping won't be punished.
At this moment, Liu Che couldn't help but feel secretly happy.
My mind works really fast.
As long as he doesn't admit it, who dares to say that Princess Changping is the murderer?
Upon hearing this, Chu Ning shrugged and turned to look at Princess Changping, indicating that it was time for her to speak.
Princess Changping did not go back on her words and said proudly, "Your Majesty, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, it was indeed me who killed the King of Wu!"
"This……"
Liu Che was dumbfounded on the spot.
Someone actually confessed to murder?
Did I hear it wrong?
Liu Che's mouth twitched, and he frowned and asked, "Princess Changping, do you know what you are talking about?"
"This princess is responsible for her own actions!"
Princess Changping snorted coldly: "It was indeed me who led people to kill the King of Wu!"
It's over. It's all over.
She actually admitted it on her own initiative!
Liu Che clenched his hands, suppressed his anger, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why do you want to kill the King of Wu?"
Princess Changping snorted coldly, "That guy has repeatedly provoked me. Taking advantage of the night when Cao Zhi was killed and everyone let down their guard, I will take my personal soldiers to kill him!"
"That guy repeatedly offended me with his words. I hated him so much that I cut off his head."
Not to mention Liu Che was frightened by this, even Chu Ning's mouth twitched.
Good man, someone just cursed at you a few times and you chopped off his head.
What a violent woman!
It’s better to avoid provoking her in the future.
When he secretly made up his mind, Liu Che took a deep breath, stared at Princess Changping, and asked coldly:
"You killed a prince just because of some trivial matters? Did you know that he was an envoy? How can I explain this to the people of the Han Dynasty?"
Princess Changping's eyes turned cold, her whole body burst with momentum, and she sneered: "If you don't accept it, you can just order me to be arrested!"
"This princess cannot give you the explanation you want."
"Either this matter ends here, or you choose to fight this princess!"
With the Qin Dynasty behind her, Princess Changping's words were full of confidence.
Even Liu Che was shocked by his momentum at this moment. He stood there for a moment, not knowing what to do.
