Chapter 238 The spy was caught
In fact, she was not afraid of assassins, but she was afraid that her reaction ability was slow and she might be assassinated by the assassin accidentally.
After Xu Yingying came up, Li Siqi felt a little strange. He was actually not used to this feeling. He was used to sleeping alone on weekdays, and now a living person suddenly appeared.
Not only Li Siqi was not used to it, but also Xu Yingying. Xu Yingying was very careful when sleeping in bed. She didn't dare to turn around for fear of touching Li Siqi.
In an instant, the atmosphere became weird.
The temperature in the air seems to be rising constantly.
Xu Yingying forced herself not to think about these messy things and tried her best to fall asleep.
After struggling for most of the night, Xu Yingying finally fell asleep at dawn.
Li Siqi on the side was not so lucky. He basically did not sleep all night since Xu Yingying went to bed.
Morning the next day.
"Recently, the people of the Western Regions have not taken our Dafeng seriously at all, and have repeatedly created unrest in our Shangjing to destroy the stability of our Shangjing. Now I order the Ninth Prince to deal with the rebellious thieves in the Western Regions in the capital."
The emperor looked at the civil and military officials and announced.
"Your Majesty." Li Siming subconsciously stood up and prepared to stop this.
"Hmm? Your Highness, do you have any objections?" The emperor's eyes stared at Li Siming like an eagle staring at its prey.
Li Siming thought that the emperor had been somewhat distant from him during this period of time. If he continued to stop Li Siqi from investigating the case in front of everyone, wouldn't that make the emperor even more suspicious?
Thinking of this, Li Siming immediately changed his tone and said, "Your Majesty, I think your decision is very good."
The emperor nodded with satisfaction when he heard what Li Siming said, "Okay, then I'll leave this matter to Lao Jiu. Lao Jiu, please don't let me down!"
Facing the emperor's instructions, Li Siqi immediately knelt down and saluted, saying: "I will not let you down."
The emperor nodded with satisfaction and announced the end of the court session.
As soon as the morning court session ended, Li Siqi immediately summoned all the officers and soldiers in the capital to conduct door-to-door interviews, and then prepared to check each house one by one to see if there were any suspicious people.
Li Siming acted decisively and ruthlessly, and instantly shocked everyone in the capital.
For a time, even the rebellious ministers and villains in the Western Regions did not dare to act rashly.
At the same time, Li Siqi's plan was seriously hindered.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince means that as Your Highness the Crown Prince, you don't know where you will fight bandits next time?"
A man wearing a sheepskin coat and a beard looked at the prince and asked.
"Yes." His Royal Highness gave a bitter smile and began to explain: "My father entrusted the task of eliminating the spies in the Western Regions to my ninth brother, so I cannot interfere."
When the people from the Western Regions heard this, they looked at each other in confusion.
Some even said dissatisfiedly on the spot: "Then what is your highness going to do with us?"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thought for a moment and then tentatively said, "Why don't you guys just hold off on taking any action for the time being and wait until the storm has passed."
The Western Region leader was immediately displeased when he heard this, and immediately slammed the table and denied it, "No."
When the prince saw the man from the Western Regions slamming the table in front of him, he immediately became unhappy and his face turned unsightly.
"Sir, since we are cooperating, I hope you can respect me. I am a prince after all. Since I promised you what I did, I will definitely do my best to do it. You don't have to doubt it. But since we are on an equal footing, I naturally hope you can understand and respect me."
The leading Western Region assassin saw that Li Siming was a little angry, and was afraid of angering Li Siming, so he hurriedly said to the subordinate who had just spoken: "Zat, why don't you apologize to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Zat glanced at his head, then reluctantly lowered it and said, "Your Highness, please forgive me and don't care about my offense just now. I'm sorry."
Li Siming's angry face softened a lot when he heard this. "Since you have nothing else to do, I will leave first. The situation has been tense recently. If there is nothing important, I suggest you don't come to me. Otherwise, it will be bad for both you and me if it is exposed."
After saying that, Li Siming left without waiting for the other party to reply.
Watching Li Siming's leaving back, the people from the Western Regions could no longer sit still and began to accuse Li Siming.
"Sir, this Crown Prince Dafeng seems to be very unreliable in doing things."
"Yes, yes, yes. He originally said that if we cooperated with him, he would be able to cover for us. But what happened? Now he suddenly said that he can no longer cover for us and can no longer give us inside information."
"That's right, what a loser. No wonder he can't beat his brother."
……
A group of people denounced Li Siming.
They were chattering non-stop and didn't notice that Li Siming, who was paying the bill, was gradually approaching them.
Not a moment.
With the sound of horse hooves, Li Siming surrounded the people from the Western Regions.
Li Siming, who had just taken a few steps, also spotted Li Siqi.
"Oh no! If Li Siming finds out we are here, my position as crown prince will be in jeopardy."
Li Siming cursed and ran away with his servants.
At this moment, Li Siqi's entire attention was on the Western Region spies in the tent, and he didn't notice Li Siming running away behind him.
Just like that, when Li Siqi went to search whether there were any accomplices of the Western Regions spies nearby, Li Siming had already run far away.
"Come here, take all the people in the tent away." Li Siqi gave an order, and most of the spies from the Western Regions were locked up in jail by Li Siming.
Morning the next day.
The emperor was immediately overjoyed when he received the news.
"Great! Great! As expected of my Ninth Prince, you are so efficient in doing things."
"Ninth Prince has made great contributions in killing the Western Regions spies. Tell the Emperor what you would like as your reward?"
The emperor looked at Li Siqi expectantly.
Li Siqi answered without hesitation: "Reporting to the Emperor, I want to ask for a team of death warriors to protect my fiancée's safety."
Everyone in the court was shocked after hearing this.
The emperor was also a little surprised. He was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but teasing Li Siming, "I didn't expect that my son is such a romantic man. He is so deeply in love with his fiancée. Why didn't I see it before?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire court burst into intense laughter.
Even Li Siqi himself couldn't help blushing and lowering his head.
