"Ahem, madam, that's it... let's go to Wende Palace first."

Wei Wuji quickly coughed dryly, and while walking out quickly, he pretended to be stupid, "If you don't set out, I'm afraid you will be late later!"

Why did Chu Wushuang look so weird? There was no need to guess at all, Wei Wuji knew it in his heart.

It must have been last night's incident, and Chu Wushuang has already known about it.

Therefore, he had to avoid this "lift" for the time being.

While leaving these words, Wei Wuji walked very fast along the way, vigilantly keeping a few meters away from Chu Wushuang.

This also led to Chu Wushuang having no chance to talk to Wei Wuji.

"Mr. Concubine, why are you doing so fast?"

Seeing Wei Wuji deliberately avoiding her, Chu Wushuang covered her jade hand lightly and said with a smile, "Why do you think you look like you have done something wrong and are deliberately avoiding me?"

"How is that possible?"

Wei Wuji immediately retorted with a righteous look, "Madam, do you think I look like that kind of person? Let's go to Wende Hall quickly, so as not to let everyone wait for a long time and lose our Chu etiquette."

"Okay!"

Chu Wushuang couldn't help but nodded with a smirk, and also accelerated his pace, and came to Wende Hall with Wei Wuji.

Inside the hall.

All the civil and military officials in the court had already settled down, and the three envoys from Zhao State had already entered the seat.

After all, Emperor Chu was the king of a country, so it was not surprising that he had not arrived at this time.

But today, what made Wei Wuji a little puzzled was that he glanced around the hall and did not find Chu Yanran's figure.

"Why didn't my little sister come today?"

Wei Wuji turned his head suspiciously and asked Chu Wushuang softly.

Could it be that Emperor Chu had other arrangements?

"What's wrong, the prince consort?"

Chu Wushuang smiled slightly when she heard this, and then she stared at Wei Wuji with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a day, and the prince-in-law is concerned about the younger sister?"

"Ahem, no, it just feels a little strange."

Wei Wuji twitched the corners of his mouth, his face turned red and his heart was not beating, "Like today's banquet, according to his delicious temperament, he shouldn't come."

Since Chu Wushuang has known about yesterday, Wei Wuji has not explained it.

Wei Wuji is very clear about the truth that ‘explanation is concealment’.

Especially in front of women, it has no effect.

It's better to pretend that you don't know anything.

"Haha...it's the best!"

Chu Wushuang laughed sweetly, and did not answer Wei Wuji's question, but sat quietly and waited.

Not long after, Emperor Chu Shanshan arrived.

Wei Wuji also stood up and bowed with all the civil and military officials: "Welcome to Your Majesty!"

When the Emperor Chu who entered the palace passed by Wei Wuji, he couldn't help but pause, looked at Wei Wuji meaningfully, and then looked at the envoy of Zhao, and then entered the dragon throne.

"No gift."

With a slight wave of his hand, Emperor Chu ordered, "Let's have a meal for everyone."

"Thank you, Lord, Long!"

Wei Wuji thanked the officials and then sat down.

After three rounds of wine.

Emperor Chu raised his wine cup, took a sip, and asked calmly: "Enter Zhao, do you know if you have heard that an assassination happened in my Chu Palace last night?"

When Zhao Envoy heard this, the three of them were stunned.

He looked at each other with a vigilant look and said to himself, "Can this assassination be successful? The little princess is now dead?"

However, they waited nervously for a night, but they did not wait for the death warriors sent to return.

And no Chu Yanran was found in the hall now.

Everything became a little confused.

"Is this happening?"

One of the leaders, Zhao Envoys frowned fiercely, pretended to be surprised, then stood up and folded his fists, and asked the Emperor Chu, "Do you dare to ask your Majesty, do you doubt it, is this what our State of Zhao?"

Without waiting for the Emperor of Chu to respond, he said with great force, "His Majesty the Emperor of Chu, our State of Zhao has always been open and honest, and will never do such despicable and shameless things!"

"If Your Majesty doubts in his heart, this is what our State of Zhao does. Your Majesty can order people to investigate thoroughly."

"We Zhao State cannot bear this suspicion!"

"That's true, Your Majesty the Emperor of Chu."

Seeing this, another Zhao envoy also stood up and explained, "We, Zhao, came here with full sincerity when we visited your country. How could we do such a despicable thing to our allies?"

"Perhaps, it may be that Yan State, who knew that our two countries were interested in forming an alliance would be detrimental to them, so he sent an assassin to challenge us."

The third envoy Zhao immediately explained, and his expression was solemn, "Their intention was obviously to take this opportunity to sow discord and make the alliance between our two countries fail."

Seeing this, Emperor Chu smiled calmly and narrowed his eyes to Wei Wuji.

"Wuji, do you think this matter was done by Yan State?"

Emperor Chu said grimly, "If I hadn't ordered you to treat Yanran last night, I'm afraid Yanran would have died long ago."

"Since you have arrested and interrogated the assassin, what results have you found?"

When Zhao and the other two saw this, a hint of undetectable panic flashed through their eyes.

"The dead soldier we sent was actually captured alive?"

"And, have you been questioned?"

"What the hell is going on?"

When the officials in the court heard the news, they also widened their eyes in surprise and began to mutter softly from left to right.

"The little princess was actually assassinated?"

"Can't it be... we really guessed that it was these Zhao people who secretly made the matter behind their backs..."

"It's very possible!"

"Indeed, this incident was a coincidence. The Zhao people came yesterday and the little princess was assassinated!"

"In my opinion, their suspicion is even greater than that of the Yan people!"

However, Wei Wuji, who was drinking silently, suddenly heard Emperor Chu say this and he was stunned.

As expected, His Majesty had known about this last night.

However, the Emperor Chu gave him such a cover, which made Wei Wuji feel strange.

When he looked up, he looked at Chu Wushuang with a cold expression, and then at the Emperor Chu who looked unhappy, Wei Wuji understood instantly.

Emperor Chu was also suspicious of Zhao State, and the purpose of this trip was not simple!

I even want to use him to see through the true face of Zhao State!

"Ahem, your majesty."

Wei Wuji coughed dryly, put down the wine cup and stood up, bowed to Emperor Chu, and said with a serious expression, "I have investigated it thoroughly after being interrogated overnight."

"oh?"

Emperor Chu was slightly surprised and said, "Then tell me in front of everyone, who did this!"

While speaking, Emperor Chu also looked at the three Zhao envoys meaningfully.

The faces of the three envoys Zhao and the other two couldn't help but change.

All the officials of the cultural relics also looked at Wei Wuji, waiting for Wei Wuji's results.

At this time, Wei Wuji's face suddenly sank.

"Your Majesty, the real murderer is their Zhao State!"
