Chapter 87 The prince is looking for trouble
On the way, Song Yi also introduced the situation to Ye Liuyun. .\\nCOM
The Ninth Prince now lives in a villa of Beiwang, which is usually the residence of Beiwang's son Zhou Quan. Although the Northern King has no military power, his influence in the dynasty is not small, and he is a confidant of the Ninth Prince.
In order to compete for the throne, the princes of the royal family secretly wooed the princes and ministers. The prince does not belong to any faction and holds military power, so he is inevitably ostracized.
"I guess these people are ostensibly sent by the dynasty as governors, but in fact they are here to cause trouble for the prince! The royal family has always been eyeing the prince's military power, hoping that the prince will make some big mistake!" Song Yi finally said.
Ye Liuyun nodded, knowing something in his mind. Anyway, just asking questions about the situation at that time would not cause any trouble to the prince.
When they arrived at the other courtyard, they saw rows of imperial troops standing inside and outside the mansion. After being informed, they were allowed in.
"This Ninth Prince's airs are really quite big!" Ye Liuyun thought to himself.
When he arrived at the main hall, Ye Liuyun saw a middle-aged man in rich clothes, sitting high on the main seat. He looks pretty good, but with his eagle eyes, he is not an easy person to deal with.
Sitting on the side was an old man who looked like a minister, with a fake smile on his face. There were several young people standing behind the man.
Presumably these are the Ninth Prince and the Northern King.
Next to the Ninth Prince, stood an old man and two guards commanders. There were also two rows of guards in bright armor standing on both sides of the hall, adding to the majesty and solemnity of the atmosphere in the hall.
In the entire hall, the old man had the highest level. Ye Liuyun could not see through his true level. The ninth prince and the two commanders of the imperial guards were both at the ninth level of true energy.
Song Tao, Li Mengxi and others stood neatly in the main hall. Shoto is telling the story of the battle.
Ye Liuyun frowned when he saw this scene. Why does this scene look like a prisoner interrogation! It's worth finding a bunch of Imperial Guards here to scare people!
But he didn't say anything and just stood at the back.
At this time, Songtao also finished describing the whole process and stopped.
Song Tao spoke in detail, and the Ninth Prince didn't have anything to ask, so he looked at Bei Wang.
King Bei said with a smile: "You are all heroes of my great Zhou Dynasty, thank you for your hard work!"
Then he asked: "The last one to come in is the great hero this time, Holy Son Ye Liuyun?"
When Ye Liuyun saw him and asked about him, he had to stand up and said, "Ye Liuyun, I have met the Ninth Prince and the North King!"
The Ninth Prince said nothing. King Bei still smiled and said: "Why did you come so late? I originally wanted you to tell the story of the battle."
His words sounded like he was saying them casually, but they actually meant he was complaining.
Of course, Ye Liuyun couldn't be caught by him, and immediately said: "I have been on vacation since I came back from the battlefield. I just went out, and I didn't know that the Ninth Prince was going to summon us."
"Oh! That's excusable!" King Bei didn't bother him too much about being late. After all, the person they convened was also temporarily decided, so it was not good to use this excuse to attack Ye Liuyun.
"But I'm curious, how did you discover the enemy's conspiracy? As far as I know, the enemy camps were dozens of miles away at that time, right? Ye Shengzi has such good eyesight!" King Bei seemed to be praising him.
"I have practiced a kind of pupil technique, which allows me to see far away." Ye Liuyun replied.
There was a hidden secret in every word of King Bei, so he had to deal with it carefully.
"That's it!" King Bei nodded, as if he recognized him.
Then he continued to ask: "I heard that a man in black robes appeared on the battlefield. He seemed to be the mastermind of this incident. And do you know him?"
"We can't talk about knowing each other. We encountered and fought a battle before when we were encircling and suppressing ferocious beasts. Everyone can testify about that." Ye Liuyun replied.
This King Bei set traps for him at every turn, obviously targeting him. Everyone else could hear it and sweated for Ye Liuyun.
King Bei looked at Ye Liuyun with a smile and said, "What a coincidence. The same person was encountered by you twice and escaped from your hands twice!"
"That man is in the realm of sea transformation, and we are no match for him. When the bandits were suppressed, the prince was in seclusion at the time, and the dynasty sent people to deal with it. I don't know the specific situation.
This time, all of us were injured and there was no fighting force in the city, so the prince did not pursue us. For specific circumstances, King Bei can also ask the prince again. "Ye Liuyun said.
Ye Liuyun's answer didn't leave any clue for them. Even King Bei looked at him seriously.
But without a handle, they may not be able to do anything about it.
The Ninth Prince said: "There are many doubts about this matter. You are not allowed to leave without permission until you return to the palace for the time being. You are waiting for investigation at any time! Ye Liuyun stays, and I will continue the interrogation."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed. If Ye Liuyun is left behind, then let them do whatever they say. Even if they killed the person and then said that Ye Liuyun had confessed, they would not be able to do anything.
Ye Liuyun couldn't help it at this time. This was obviously aimed at him!
He asked loudly: "Interrogation? Does the Ninth Prince have evidence to doubt me? What right does he have to interrogate me?"
King Bei then changed his kind smile and shouted: "Bold! As the governor, doesn't the Ninth Prince have the right to interfere in the war?"
Now that he has broken his skin, Ye Liuyun is no longer polite when he speaks.
"Since I am a military governor, I only have authority when I go to the battlefield. I am not in the army now, and I only follow the orders of the palace. The ninth prince has no right to interrogate me! If you want to interrogate me, ask the prince first!"
"You dare to disobey me?" the Ninth Prince said coldly. The Imperial Guards on the side also roared and surrounded Ye Liuyun and the others.
But that didn't scare him at all. "I am a member of the royal family, and I only obey the prince's orders! Even the ninth prince cannot be lawless, right?"
The Ninth Prince had a gloomy look on his face when he heard this. Some things can be done, but they cannot be done openly. He also understands this truth.
He is indeed just a military governor and has no right to interfere with the palace's personnel affairs.
It's just that he didn't expect that Ye Liuyun was so courageous that he didn't restrain him. He originally thought that these little people could be manipulated at will.
King Bei shouted coldly again: "Ye Liuyun, you are so brave, how dare you slander the Ninth Prince!"
Ye Liuyun smiled contemptuously and said: "I'm just stating the facts! Even if you are the Northern King, you can't frame people in my palace at will, right?"
Seeing that he could not scare Ye Liuyun and the others, King Bei had no choice but to say: "How could you misunderstand His Highness the Ninth Prince? He just wants to ask clearly. What's the big deal if he keeps you here for a few days!"
Ye Liuyun also said directly: "You're welcome! Everything we know has been said. If the Ninth Prince still wants to ask, just ask now in front of everyone. Everyone can be a witness.
I'm not used to living in other people's homes, so I won't stay here. "
"You..." King Bei also didn't expect that Ye Liuyun, at such a young age, would refuse to take soft and hard advice, and would dare to confront them tit for tat.
"Okay! You're fine! Ye Liuyun, please go back first and wait for my summons!" the Ninth Prince said through gritted teeth.
"Sorry, Ninth Prince, we are usually very busy and cannot wait all the time. If you have anything to do in the future, you can go to the prince first! Let's take our leave!"
After speaking, Ye Liuyun led everyone back to the palace.
