Chapter 762: Zhao Zhuang Chen Is Detained

"This…this…"

Words would not come out of his mouth as Zhao Zhuang Chen looked at the body full of blood on the floor.

And the body was of his father…who he had come to kill here.

The shadow guards behind him also saw this scene and were shocked like him.

Li Qiang standing a few steps away frowned when he heard nothing but 'this' from Zhao Zhuang Chen.

Yun Weilan, however, seemed to have a guess what Zhao Zhuang Chen just saw.

She didn't step forward.

"Your Highness, is everything alright?"

It was Li Qiang who asked Zhao Zhuang Chen finally but the latter doesn't even seem to hear him.

On the other hand, General Li who was hiding in the dark heard the familiar voice and his heart shook for a moment.

Xi Ying was hiding at a different spot but now there was someone else by his side and that person was An Shing.

Xi Ying's eyes were deathly cold. An Shing had already told him everything.

An Shing saw his master smiling coldly and couldn't help but shiver for a moment.

Xi Ying was smiling remembering the moment from a few days back where General Li had asked him if he could involve his dear elder brother in this plan of theirs.

Fortunately, he had refused otherwise tonight could have result a great harm on their side. Though Xi Ying was sure that he would still have come out as a winner but he didn't want the bloodshed as well…at least not of his people.

General Li was trying to have a look at the person who had just spoken.

Inside his mind, he was sure that it could not be the person he was thinking of, however, his curiosity won over him as he tried to see who this person accompanying Zhao Zhuang Chen and he even have the same voice as his elder brother.

Zhao Zhuang Chen didn't seem to believe his eyes. He bent down and touched Zhao Wang Lei's stomach.

'It was real blood.'

He said to himself.

For a moment, Zhao Zhuang Chen had thought that this was some kind of plan by Zhao Wang Lei and Zhao Zhang Wei to trap him. Though it was possible but he could not really cross out the possibility that they got to know of his plan and were trying to trap him.

However, the blood was real.

Zhao Zhuang's face was serious. He touched the dagger that was still in his father's stomach and took it out without any expression on his face.

His father didn't even move.

There was nothing in his face except the curiousness to find out who did it.

The dagger looked very ordinary. Zhao Zhuang Chen noticed. 𝒇𝙧𝚎𝐞𝙬𝒆𝑏𝑛𝑜v𝚎𝒍.c𝑜m

However, he suddenly didn't care who killed his so called father.

Ha!

He laughed suddenly.

It was good. He would not have to dirty his hands.

He laughed like a crazy person.

Now only Zhao Zhang Wei needed to be removed from his path.

Li Qiang frowned deeply when he heard Zhao Zhuang Chen's laughter.

With a frustrated sigh, he walked forward and walked to stand beside him trying to check what exactly happened. However, when he saw Zhao Wang Lei's unmoving body, his face was suddenly very somber.

On the other hand, General Li's confidence was shaken when the person moved to stand behind Zhao Zhuang Chen…perhaps to see what shocked the latter.

The light of the candle fell on his face and General Li saw clearly that it was none other than his elder brother.

For a moment, he was unable to believe his own eyes.

It didn't take a long time for his eyes to go wet as he exhaled sharply.

General Li knew that it was time to make a move.

He could see Xi Ying walking out of his hiding spot and walking toward Zhao Zhuang Chen. Even his shadow guards were starting to surround Zhao Zhuang Chen's shadow guard and the soldiers that…that his elder brother had brought with him.

However, his feet seemed to be nailed to the ground.

Xi Ying didn't care if General Li was going to come or not. He alone was enough. He needed General Li's presence for a later time.

Zhao Zhuang Chen frowned when he suddenly felt something sharp against his neck.

He raised his head slowly and was shocked out of his wits when he recognized Xi Ying.

His shadow guards were also shocked as they didn't even get to know when they were surrounded and now they couldn't help their master.

Li Qiang's eyes flashed when he saw Xi Ying. He never said anything when Xi Ying looked at him with a mocking smile on his lips.

Zhao Zhuang Chen was furious seeing how Xi Ying was not moving his sword away.

In his eyes, since Zhao Wang Lei was no longer alive, he was already the Emperor. Hence, Xi Ying's actions were top outrageous.

"You…what are you doing? How dare you, Xi Ying? For pointing your sword at the Imperial Prince, you can be charged for treason."

Xi Ying merely smiled in mockery when he heard Zhao Zhuang Chen's words and said coldly.

"Prince …who is that? This Lord is just detaining the person who killed the Emperor of Xin."

Zhao Zhuang Chen's eyes widened and he said furiously.

"What rubbish you are spouting? I didn't kill anyone. He was like this when I came here."

Xi Ying merely smiled and said

"Your Highness should not lie. Anyone who would see Your Highness would believe what this Lord said…Your Highness must be wise to know that and if …anyone dared to say otherwise, they would be silenced."

Xi Ying glanced at Li Qiang while saying his last few words.

Li Qiang still stayed silent. In fact, he looked completely calm …something that confused Xi Ying for a moment but he put aside this matter for now.

Handling Zhao Zhuang Chen was more important.

"Go!"

Xi Ying said to An Shing who moved immediately while Zhao Zhuang Chen was shocked and confused as he tried to think about what Xi Ying was trying to do.

However, when he looked at his blood-stained hands and the dagger in his hands, he was suddenly more shocked and immediately threw away the dagger.

He took a deep breath and tried to explain to Xi Ying.

"Prime Minister Xi, it is not what you are thinking."

Xi Ying didn't say anything and this made Zhao Zhuang Chen more furious. He tried to move but Xi Ying looked at him with warning-filled eyes and pointed the sword closer t his neck.

Zhao Zhuang Chen flinched when the pointy sword stabbed his neck slightly to draw out the blood and he didn't dare to move again.

This was the scene the Imperial soldiers saw when they stepped inside Imperial chambers.

The head of the Imperial soldiers was about to speak when his eyes fell on the unmoving Zhao Wang Lei on the floor.

His eyes widened sharply and he didn't speak for a moment. When his eyes fell on Zhao Zhuang Chen's hands which were red with blood, and the dagger that was lying close to him on the ground, his face became serious.

Just a few moments ago, a person had appeared in front of him and said that he was needed in the Imperial chamber.

He couldn't even see the face of that shadow guard because the latter left too soon and he couldn't catch him.

However, he soon hurried to the Imperial chambers.

On his way, he was shocked when he saw the Imperial soldiers and Eunuch sleeping on the floor without any consciousness of what was going on around them.

This made the matter more serious for him, however, he had not thought that when he would come inside he would see the Emperor's dead body.

"Prime Minister Xi."

The head of the Imperial soldiers, Wu Dang called out respectfully trying to hide his shock.

Xi Ying acknowledged him and said

"His Highness, the first prince killed His Majesty. Detain him and make sure that he wouldn't run away."

"This is rubbish."

Zhao Zhuang Chen said instantly and Xi Ying looked at him coldly as he asked

"Then would His Highness answer what he is doing here in the Imperial chamber at this time of night? And how would his Highness answer the opening of that tunnel?"

The chambers were now lit by a few Imperial soldiers.

Wu Dang also noticed the opened tunnel. His eyes sharpened more and he looked at his soldiers who stepped forward and surrounded Zhao Zhuang Chen's soldiers.

And Zhao Zhuang Chen who was seeing all this could only open and close his mouth.

He couldn't answer Xi Ying's questions.

After all, he couldn't really tell the truth.

However, he still shouted loudly.

"Benwang didn't kill anyone. If anyone dared to touch Benwang, Benwang will make sure that they would face death."

However, the imperial soldiers also realized the gravity of the situation and didn't feel afraid of Zhao Zhuang Chen. They calmly surrounded him and Wu Dang even said

"It would be better if Your Highness follows this one obediently otherwise this one would have to follow severe methods that Your Highness might not like."

Zhao Zhuang Chen's heart was filled with anger but he couldn't say anything.

He looked at Xi Ying coldly before he silently followed Wu Dang.

He will surely clear everything.

He promised himself…still not realizing in the circumstances he was stuck.
