At this moment, all eyes were on the king.

"Dad, I just said nonsense with a short-circuited brain, this matter has nothing to do with me! Dad, you must believe me!" Prince Shalai said eagerly.

Although the facts are already obvious, Prince Shalai does not intend to admit it, he will definitely deny it to the end.

The king glared at him with a grim look.

The king was not a fool, he was like a mirror in his heart, and he knew that a leader of the guard, without the command of others, would not dare to do such a thing.

However, Prince Shalai is his son, and he is also his son-in-law, and he is also the heir he identifies, and he must protect it.

So the king looked at the chief of the guard.

"In the recording, you said that my son and Ibri instructed you to do the right thing?" the king asked with a straight face.

"Yes...... Yes, the king. The head of the guard could only nod.

"Smack!"

The king slapped the head of the guard in the face.

"I see that you have clearly failed to take revenge, and you are afraid of taking the blame, so you are making things up, even if it is in the recording, you are lying, aren't you!" the king shouted.

After the head of the guard received this slap, he was immediately stunned.

"I'm ...... King, I'm not lying, I'm ...... What I said was true, it's really none of my business!, I'm just doing what I'm told!" said the head of the guard eagerly.

"Smack!"

"Dare to lie!"

The king slapped them in the face again.

"Come, drag him out for me at once!" said the king.

"Yes!"

Several guards immediately rushed forward, restrained the leader of the guard, and drove out.

Such a drastic change in the situation made Lin Yun and Yige's faces change drastically.

"No, help, Prince Ig, I've told you the truth!" the leader of the guard called for help.

"Dad, he's the only witness who knows the truth, he can't just kill him!" Iggy immediately stepped forward to plead.

If the leader of the guard is killed, there will be no witnesses.

"He committed an assassination in the palace, and his crime deserves death, and I am here to uphold justice for you and Mr. Lin Yun. The king put his hands behind his back and said slowly.

Lin Yun couldn't help but shake his head.

Lin Yun knew very well in his heart that the king was in such a hurry to execute the head of the guards, just to die without proof, to help Prince Shalai, and to let the head of the guards bear all the people in this matter.

Lin Yun understood that the king definitely knew that this matter was instigated by Prince Ige behind his back.

But he wanted to impose this guilt on the body of the chief of the guard, and his purpose in doing so was very simple, it was clear that he wanted to protect the prince of Sharai, and the chief of the guard became a scapegoat.

Even the family patriarchs and upper-class nobles present also knew this, but they would not be stupid enough to say it.

Lin Yun made a lot of calculations, and even kept all the evidence recorded, thinking that he could make Prince Shalai's army!

But Lin Yun ignored one point, ignoring King Shalai's determination to favor his eldest son.

Even if the evidence is ironclad, King Shalai can shirk the blame for the crime in one sentence.

In the blink of an eye, the leader of the guards was dragged out of the main hall.

If the patriarchs of the six major families present and the nobles stood up to speak for Igge, there might be a little chance to turn around, but no one spoke for Iggy.

The faces of Eagle and Lin Yun were not very good-looking.

Prince Sha Lai looked very happy, and even looked at Lin Yun and Yi Ge with provocative eyes, as if to say, 'What's the matter, you still can't help me'!

King Shalai looked at his second uncle, Ibri.

"Ibri, you are in charge of the security of the palace, but this kind of thing happens, from now on, you will be demoted to a knighthood, to a marquis!" said King Shalai with a straight face.

Ibri was originally a duke, the highest rank of knighthood.

"Yes!" Ibri could only nod.

King Shalai looked at Eagle and Lin Yun again.

"Yige, Mr. Lin Yun, your murderer, I have already executed, Yige, you were frightened this time, it just so happens that I also have the intention of giving you a knight, I will crown you as a marquis, and then give you a set of marquis' mansions outside the palace. King Shalai said.

King Shalai did this for a simple reason, and he also knew that he could not make decisions for Iger, so adding a knighthood to Iggy was regarded as compensation for Iger.

You must know that before this, Iggy was only an earl, which does not match his identity, which is enough to show how much he is not taken seriously.

Including the reduction of Ibri's title, it can be regarded as compensation for Iggy, just to eliminate the resentment in Iggy's heart.

"Thank you, father. ”

Although Eagle was unwilling to accept such a result, there was no way to do it, and the addition of a first-level title could be regarded as barely recovering a little loss.

"You're frightened, so go back and rest. King Shalai waved his hand.

"It's Father!" Iggy bowed.

Immediately after, Eagle and Lin Yun left.

King Shalai also dismissed the patriarchs and nobles present and told them to go back to rest.

After Lin Yun and Iger walked out of the main hall.

"Brother Lin Yun, do you want to treat your wound?" asked Iggy.

"It's okay, I'll just go back and deal with it myself. Lin Yun waved his hand.

This skin trauma, as long as Lin Yun takes out the bullet, the wound will be healed tomorrow morning, the healing power of the monk is much stronger than that of ordinary people, and the higher the realm, the stronger the healing force.

"Brother Lin Yun, I really didn't expect that the result would be like this. Eagle shook his head in frustration.

"Now it seems that we are still in a hurry, and it is not so easy to defeat your brother. Lin Yun shook his head and said.

Lin Yun originally thought that he could rely on this incident to take Prince Shalai's army.

Now it seems that Lin Yun still thinks too simply, and still underestimates King Shalai's determination to protect him.

"Yes, it is enough to see from this incident how important my father's support is, if it were me who instructed the assassination to be exposed today, even if I was not punished, I would have been stripped of all my identity and expelled from Shalai, and what happened to my brother would have exonerated him. Eagle laughed bitterly to himself.

"Of course, it's not without gains, at least let us understand how important your father's support is, and it can even be said that whoever he supports can determine whose success or failure, and you add a knighthood, which can be regarded as a harvest. Lin Yun said.

After a pause, Lin Yun continued: "So our next goal is to gain the support of the six major families and many nobles, as well as your father's support!"

"I'm just a concubine, and my dad is partial to my brother, so it's even more difficult to get his support. Eagle shook his head.

"Ig, don't forget, we are on a path of great difficulty, believe me, although no one supports you now, no one speaks for you, but it will slowly get better. Lin Yun patted Eagle on the shoulder.

"Hmm!" Iggy nodded vigorously.

After so many things, Eagle didn't know why, he inexplicably believed Lin Yun......
