My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 126 Lost to My Ambition
"He gave it, you definitely can't give it!"

Facing Zhu Di's questioning, Xu Yingxu smiled miserably.

Winner and loser, from the moment his identity was exposed, Xu Yingxu was ready to die.

Zhu Di was also furious at this time, and was about to order Jin Yiwei to take Xu Yingxu down, but Zhu Zhanhe said first, "Grandfather, I have a few questions for him!"

"You don't have to worry about it, son, I don't know some things!"

Unexpectedly, Xu Yingxu sneered at this moment.

He thought that Zhu Zhanhe was going to ask him about Zhu Yunqi's whereabouts, let alone him, even Ye Xixian didn't know where the other party was hiding now?

"Commander Xu misunderstood, I just want to ask, were you planning behind the assassination of me and Zhanxi, and the poisoning of my father?"

Zhu Zhanhe saw that Xu Yingxu had the will to die, and was worried that after the death of the other party, some questions in his heart would not be solved, so he asked first.

"It can be said yes, or it can be said no."

Unexpectedly, Xu Yingxu gave an ambiguous answer.

"What does it mean?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked puzzledly.

"I don't agree with the assassination of you juniors, because I don't think it has much effect, but it will scare the snake, but the people behind me hate your family to the bone, so as long as they are people of your lineage, they should be killed in his eyes." , That’s why Qiu Xingyuan’s assassination happened.”

Xu Yingxu paused at this point, and then explained.

"As for your father's poisoning, it was indeed planned by me. Killing him was not the purpose, but to put the blame on the crown prince, so as to drive a wedge between him and His Majesty, but I didn't expect you to save the life of the King of Han."

"Since it was blamed on Uncle, what happened to the writing on He Hou's bed?"

Hearing this, Zhu Zhanhe asked curiously again.

"That's Ji Gang, an idiot who thinks he's being clever. He thought that leaving those words would make His Majesty think that the Crown Prince was confusing people, and would aggravate His Majesty's suspicions about the Crown Prince. But he didn't know that He Hou couldn't read at all, so he had no choice. Remedy afterwards, but it should be discovered by you in the end, right?"

Xu Yingxu was also very annoyed when he mentioned this matter. When Zhu Zhanhe asked about this matter, he obviously discovered the key clue of He Hou's illiteracy.

"Ji Gang is also one of yours?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked curiously, if even Ji Gang, the leader of Jinyiwei, could be instigated by people like Xu Yingxu, then they would be too scary.

"Ji Gang is not yet one of us, he is more like a cooperative relationship with us, because he has the control in our hands, so sometimes he is asked to do something for us."

Xu Yingxu didn't hide it, after all, even if he didn't say these things, Zhu Zhanhe should be able to guess them.

"No wonder he doesn't know about He Hou's illiteracy!"

Zhu Zhanhe was stunned when he heard the words, this point was similar to his original guess.

"The framing of the third child was also designed by you on purpose, right?"

At this moment, Zhu Di couldn't help but interrupted and asked.

"Haha~, is King Zhao still using us to frame him? For the crown prince, he would do anything. Believe it or not, even if he knows the relationship between Ji Gang and us, as long as it helps him fight for the position, he will definitely do it." Do not hesitate to cooperate with us!"

When Xu Yingxu mentioned Zhu Gaosui, he couldn't help laughing. In some respects, he and Zhu Gaosui are the same kind of people, and they both use whatever means for their own ambitions.

So Xu Yingxu and the others asked Ji Gang to take Zhu Gaosui's money. No matter what the result was, they would be able to successfully divorce the relationship between Zhu Di and Zhu Gaosui's father and son. Another helper beside Zhu Di was missing.

"What a vicious conspiracy!"

Zhu Di said bitterly.

From the moment Zhu Gaosui came into contact with Ji Gang, whether things will be exposed in the end?For people like Xu Yingxu and Ye Xixian, it was already a safe bet.

"Borrowing what the prince said just now, King Zhao didn't lose to us, but to his own ambition!"

Xu Yingxu smiled smugly, and actually returned Zhu Zhanhe's words just now.

"So the main purpose of you doing these things is actually to stir up the royal family's infighting!"

Zhu Zhanhe said again at this time.

"That's right, we can only have a chance if we fight within the royal family!"

Xu Yingxu nodded again, and then he asked Zhu Zhanhe suddenly.

"My son, I have answered so many questions of yours, should you also answer one of my questions?"

"What do you want to know?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked.

"How did you guess that I planned all this behind the scenes just because of Ji Gang's death?"

"Actually, when Hui Hai died, we already suspected Ji Gang, so we also investigated a list of people who had contact with Ji Gang."

Zhu Zhanhe paused at this point, then continued to explain.

"As for Ji Gang's death, it is indeed your big failure, because he exposed some information about you..."

Zhu Zhanhe explained the information he deduced before and how he found Xu Yingxu by comparing the two lists.

"If my guess is correct, you should still have some scratches on the back of your hands and arms, right?"

Finally, Zhu Zhanhe asked Xu Yingxu again.

"The son is really amazing!"

Xu Yingxu couldn't help admiring when he heard the words, and as he rolled up his sleeves, he saw that his arms and the back of his hands were indeed covered with scratches, which were the scars left by Xu Yingxu when Ji Gang struggled before his death.

It was precisely because of these scars that Xu Yingxu was so guilty that he dared not enter the palace, but Zhu Zhanhe still saw through the flaws.

"How did you kill Ji Gang?"

Zhu Di couldn't help interjecting again at this time, although Zhu Zhanhe had already guessed before, but he still wanted to hear Xu Yingxu's confession.

"It's okay to tell you."

Xu Yingxu sneered, and then stopped hiding, and told the story of how he killed Ji Gang in detail.

It turned out that Xu Yingxu and the others did not deliberately frame Zhu Gaosui. He let Ji Gang contact Zhu Gaosui, in fact, he wanted to pull Zhu Gaosui into the water.

Of course, at first Zhu Gaosui only thought that it was Ji Gang who wanted to join him and help him fight for the crown prince, so he also acted very actively, and during this time he often contacted Ji Gang.

However, Zhu Gaosui was suddenly called into the palace yesterday, and Xu Yingxu's spies in Zhao Wang's mansion immediately reported to Xu Yingxu.

Xu Yingxu immediately sensed that something was wrong, so he sent someone to notify Ji Gang, wanting to discuss it with him.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Ji Gang left Jinyiwei, Zhu Zhanhe took people to arrest Ji Gang, and it just happened to be in vain.

Under such circumstances, Xu Yingxu had no choice but to temporarily hide Ji Gang in the Qiuxing Garden, avoiding the first wave of search by Jin Yiwei.

However, Zhu Di has already ordered that Ji Gang be dug out even if he digs three feet into the ground. Jin Yiwei will search all the places Ji Gang has been to, and Ji Gang has also been to Qiuxing Garden in order to investigate the case before, so Jin Yiwei's visit is also a must. It's just a matter of time.

At that time, Ji Gang was also very anxious, and kept urging Xu Yingxu to find a way to arrange for him to escape out of the city, otherwise if he was caught, everyone would end badly.

Under such circumstances, after discussing with Ye Xixian, Xu Yingxu finally decided to kill them.

At that time, Ji Gang had already become a frightened bird, wary of anyone, and he was proficient in martial arts, ordinary people could not approach him at all, even when he saw Xu Yingxu, he was not allowed to bring guards.

Under such circumstances, Xu Yingxu didn't bother to hide his skills any longer. With the help of his usual obesity, Ji Gang didn't have any defense against him.

Speaking of which, Ji Gang's death was really wronged. He probably never imagined in his dreams that Xu Yingxu, a fat man who usually needs help from his servants when he walks, turned out to be a hidden master. Not only was he superb in martial arts, but his strength was even more amazing.

So in the end Ji Gang was strangled to death by Xu Yingxu himself, and before he died, he also scratched Xu Yingxu's arm, which made him afraid of being exposed, so he dared not enter the palace, and his identity as the real murderer was confirmed.

"Although Ji Gang has some talents, he forgets his righteousness when he sees small gains, and cherishes his life when he does great things. At the beginning, I saw that this person cannot be reused, so I asked him to help with some things occasionally, but I didn't expect that it would be his fault in the end. hands."

Xu Yingxu was quite annoyed when he said this,

"It's too late to regret now, second child, put down the knife in your hand, as long as you confess everything you know, I can protect you from death!"

Zhu Di saw that Zhu Zhanhe had almost asked the question, so he persuaded Xu Yingxu to surrender.

Although Xu Yingxu committed the felony of treason, Zhu Di still couldn't bear to kill him because of Empress Xu's face, so as long as Xu Yingxu is willing to explain the movements of Jianwen's remnants, or even help him catch Zhu Yunqi, then he can Spare the other person's life.

Regarding Zhu Di's persuasion to surrender, Xu Yingxu bared his teeth and smiled: "Thank you for your kindness, but it's a pity that I, Xu, have chosen this path since I chose this path, and it is impossible to turn back!"

As Xu Yingxu said, he looked down at the blood-stained long knife in his hand. Although he was already powerless to kill the enemy, he still had the strength to kill himself.

"Wait! Even if you don't think about yourself, don't you think about your wife and children?"

Seeing this, Zhu Zhanhe immediately yelled.

"That's right, you can save your wife and children only if you make atonement!"

Zhu Di also saw that Xu Yingxu had the will to die, so he followed Zhu Zhanhe and shouted.

Sure enough, when he heard his wife and children, Xu Yingxu's hand that raised the knife stopped immediately.

However, Xu Yingxu only hesitated for a moment, and immediately yelled loudly: "The life and death of Xu's wife and children are all in the mind of His Majesty!"

As soon as Xu Yingxu's words fell, the long knife in his hand was also drawn across the neck, and then a stream of blood spurted out, and the body fell to the ground.

Seeing Xu Yingxu committing suicide in front of his own eyes, Zhu Di also remained silent for a long time.

"Order someone to contain Xu Yingxu's body so that he can bury him. As for his wife and children, he will be exiled and demoted to Yunnan!"

Zhu Di finally let out a long sigh. For Empress Xu's sake, he finally decided to spare Xu Yingxu's family.
