Guo Zhiyuan knew it was broken as soon as he spoke. Who is Zhu Changluo? That is the future emperor. Although he is not favored now, since he can set up this meticulous demon bookstore, it is not enough to kill him. I believe he has already been tempted to kill people and silence him, so he will let these masked assassins lie here in advance. He is really an old birthday star - he is so impatient!

However, Guo Zhiyuan knew that the more he was, the more he could not panic. He pretended not to see the masked assassins, picked up a pawn on the chessboard, slowly pushed it across the Chuhe Hanjie, and laughed: "Your Highness is joking. How dare you threaten the prince? For the prince, the boy is like this little pawn, not worth mentioning. I believe that Zhao Sheren has reported to the prince that he had gone to Zhao Sheren's mansion to investigate the case today. If the boy was to be unfavorable to the prince, he would not appear here at all. The boy did not go alone in the investigation of the case. If the boy entered the Ciqing Palace today and did not go out, it might be a little hindering to the prince..."

Guo Zhiyuan's words were soft and hard, which made Zhu Changluo feel a little worried. His face was gloomy and clear, and then he waved his hand. The masked assassins disappeared silently like ghosts.

But the murderous intent in Zhu Changluo's eyes did not disappear. He picked up the "car" on the chessboard and put it heavily on the chess world, and said coldly: "To be a pawn, you must have the awareness of being a pawn. You are a smart person. You should know that some words are rotten in your stomach. If you accidentally say them, you will be dead!"

Guo Zhiyuan had figured out Zhu Changluo's character. He was a cold-hearted person and was scheming. If he wanted to save his life, he could not show weakness too much. He pushed the cross-river again and said calmly: "Your Highness the Prince, don't underestimate this pawn too much. Once this pawn crosses the river, there will be no way out. For it, the only thing he can do is to rush forward. As for whether to live or die, he has already left it aside! Only if you are not afraid of death can you survive in death!..."

A cold light flashed in Zhu Changluo's eyes, and he pushed the 'car' in his hand forward into a row, and said in a cold voice: "The pawns are pawns, can they still be a mantis chariot? I have a 'car' in my hand. No matter how many small pawns are, are you still afraid of not being able to kill them all!" A terrifying murderous intent enveloped Guo Zhiyuan again!

Guo Zhiyuan suddenly picked up an inconspicuous "horse" in the right corner of the chessboard and quickly landed next to the Han boundary of Chu River, forming a protective force of horses stepping on the "Sun". He laughed and said, "If the prince wants to kill me, a small soldier, it may not be easy. Since I, a small soldier, dared to cross the river, I naturally had a "horse" here to protect him, otherwise it would not be a soldier crossing the river, but a "dead soldier"!..."

"To be honest, your Highness the Crown Prince, you have already met Shen Xiang before coming to Ciqing Palace and made a three-day appointment with him. The original murderer of the demon book case will be found within three days. The most critical evidence of the entire demon book case is that I have long been hidden in the capital that you will never find. Once I cannot leave the palace alive, these evidences will be sent to Shen Xiang! I believe Shen Xiang will be very happy to see such a situation!..."

Zhu Changluo was stunned when he heard this. He could kill Guo Zhiyuan and Zhao Shizhen, and even find Zhang Cheng and others who accompanied Guo Zhiyuan to investigate the case one by one. However, it was impossible to kill Shen Yiguan. Shen Yiguan was the pioneer of Concubine Zheng's desire to abolish him and establish Fu Wang. Once the evidence of his behind-the-scenes planning of the evil book case fell into Shen Yiguan's hands, his position as crown prince would be completely unavailable!

(Note: In history, Chen Yiguan originally advocated making Zhu Changluo the crown prince, but because the Donglin Party members who were hostile to him supported Zhu Changluo as the crown prince, his position also changed)

Thinking of this, a hint of panic flashed in Zhu Changluo's eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said, "What do you mean?"

Guo Zhiyuan knew that he had finally taken the initiative, pointed to the chessboard and said proudly: "For big names like His Royal Highness and Shen Xiang, I am a small pawn on the chessboard. If I were not afraid of death, I was just a chess piece that was slaughtered by people on the chessboard. Once I was not afraid of death, I might become the decisive force to change the winning or losing of the entire chess game! I said earlier that if I wanted to be unfavorable to His Royal Highness, I would not appear here at all. As for my purpose, His Royal Highness should have already known it, so why should I ask it clearly..."

Zhu Changluo closed his eyes, rubbed his eyebrows with his fingers, and after a while, he slowly opened his eyes and said: "Even if I am willing to exonerate Mr. Guo and recommend Chen Ju to preside over the case, my father is so angry about this matter and will not give up easily. This matter is still difficult to be good! What should I do?..."

Seeing Zhu Changluo's series of subtle actions, Guo Zhiyuan knew that his life had been saved. He secretly wiped the sweat from his hands and pushed the young master forward again, and said calmly: "This demon book case is like a chess game with the world as the bet! Since Concubine Zheng and others' conspiracy to depose the crown prince has been exposed, their plan to depose the crown prince will inevitably be unable to be implemented again. From this point of view, His Royal Highness has won, and the truth of the demon book case is actually not important. Continuing to confuse will only cause turmoil in the court and hurt the country. The priest cannot understand such a principle, but the priest cannot be dispelled for a moment. Now we only need to provide a step for the priest to make the matter settled early, and naturally everyone will be happy!..."

Zhu Changluo's eyes lit up. He was also confused by the authorities and was guilty of being a thief. He was afraid that Emperor Wanli would suspect him, so he stayed up and broke Guo Zhiyuan so much. He suddenly became clear and relaxed. Seeing that Guo Zhiyuan was much more pleasing to him, he clicked the crossing river jerk on the chessboard and said with a smile: "It seems that your crossing river jerk is really useful. Judging from your confidence and you are sure to win, why don't you finish this endgame and discuss it carefully?..."

This was actually another test of Zhu Changluo. Through the confrontation just now, he saw Guo Zhiyuan's talent. He wanted to recruit him, but was worried that this guy was difficult to control, so he deliberately spoke out to test him.

Guo Zhiyuan naturally also heard Zhu Changluo's intention to recruit Zhu Changluo. In theory, the recruitment of the prince was a good thing that many people could not afford, but he did not want to embrace this thick thigh. Zhu Changluo was a cold-hearted person, and was really not a good master. He also gave himself a crown prince early. The imprint of the party may not be a good thing for his future development. You must know that Emperor Wanli has been in power for nearly twenty years. In the past twenty years, Zhu Changluo could only be a turtle with his head. He would instead recruit Concubine Zheng, Chen Yiguan and others and the crown prince. The party's hostile forces have all their strength to suppress it.

On the other hand, Guo Zhiyuan, who is familiar with the history of the Ming Dynasty, deeply knew that the demise of the Ming Dynasty was largely due to the party. The struggle was too fierce, and once he was involved in the party and was in the struggle, his destiny would be difficult to control himself. Therefore, from time to time to this era, Guo Zhiyuan decided not to surrender to any force easily and not to become a victim of party struggles.

But Guo Zhiyuan did not dare to refuse. He was helpless in confronting Zhu Changluo just now to save his father's life. He really offended Zhu Changluo. After all, Zhu Changluo will become the emperor in the future. Although he is the "Son of January", Zhu Changluo will be more than enough to kill him in a month. Thinking of this, Guo Zhiyuan was also a little embarrassed.
