Chapter 105: Investigation
At this time, Gan Luo's mission to investigate the assassin had returned.
Gan Luo managed to suppress the assassination attempt on him single-handedly.
This matter did not reach the palace.
"Your Highness, I have already investigated and found out."
"Why don't you tell me about it?"
Gan Luo stared at Lin Fengmian with a cold expression.
Lin Fengmian could sense Gan Luo's anger at this moment.
"These three are indeed from the Assassination Pavilion, and they were all acting on the orders of Official Li."
"Ha, I never expected it was official Li who did it."
Gan Luo decided to personally visit Official Li at his residence.
Now, this official Li is already terminally ill, yet he still has the mind to deal with Gan Luo.
This really made Gan Luo laugh.
The official's full name is Li Shan.
He has served as an official in the government for more than ten years.
He could be considered a veteran official in the imperial court.
Unfortunately, this so-called veteran official has now offended Gan Luo.
The only one to blame is this old official who brought this upon himself.
In that case, who else can you blame?
Gan Luo brought the divine physician with him to Li Shan's residence.
Unexpectedly, Li Shan's situation was quite miserable.
Only a few servants remained in the mansion.
Upon seeing Gan Luo's arrival, these servants all knelt on the ground.
"Greetings to Your Highness, may Your Highness live a thousand years!"
Li Shan was lying in bed when he heard that Gan Luo had arrived.
He naturally carried a cane and came outside to meet Gan Luo.
But this time, Li Shan did not bow to Gan Luo at all.
"I never expected that the princess would have time to visit this old minister. This truly makes this old minister feel overjoyed."
Gan Luo looked at Li Shan with a half-smile, and walked lightly up to him: "Is it a surprise or a shock? Only the official himself knows."
Gan Luo crossed his legs and sat down in the chair without a care in the world.
It seems that Ganluo was a Ganluo person here.
"Your Highness, you really are very impolite."
Gan Luo then dispatched all the servants around him.
The servants left while cautiously discussing the matter outside.
"Why did Her Highness suddenly come to see the Master, when she was perfectly healthy? Now she's already terminally ill..."
"Yes, yes, the princess sent us all away. Could it be that she wants to kill the master to silence him?"
They were all discussing this quietly.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew past, and Lin Fengmian appeared in front of everyone.
When they saw Lin Fengmian, they were all startled.
They all collapsed to the ground.
"you……"
"I advise you not to say anything you shouldn't, otherwise you won't even know how you died."
These lackeys all lowered their heads and crawled away like dogs.
Lin Fengmian leaned against the locust tree with his arms wrapped around himself.
Why do you have a problem with me?
"Does Your Highness not wish to become an empress?"
Gan Luo had little interest in the Empress.
"I only wish to properly support His Majesty in becoming a wise and benevolent ruler."
Unexpectedly, this was met with ridicule from Li Shan.
"Why does Your Highness pretend to be an emperor here? Your Highness clearly wants to become a female ruler."
Gan Luo had no intention of wasting words with Li Shan and the other man.
"Considering your many years of service in the court, I have taken pity on you and allowed the divine physician to save your life. I only want to tell you one thing: I have said that I have no ambition for the throne, and that means I have none."
Gan Luo grabbed Li Shan by the neck and said this.
Li Shan was already having some difficulty breathing.
However, it can be seen from Gan Luo's eyes that he truly had no interest in the throne.
If that's the case, what's the point of all that I've done?
I found it incredibly funny at that very moment.
Li Shan laughed loudly for a few moments before spitting out blood.
Upon witnessing this scene, the renowned doctor immediately applied pressure points to Li Shan's acupoints.
"how."
"Your Highness is unaware that this official already had some old ailments, and now those ailments have relapsed. Even if he is saved, he will only have a few years left."
Actually, the divine doctor didn't quite understand Gan Luo's intentions.
"He truly loved the court; such a loyal minister deserved a good old age."
As for those people from the Assassination Pavilion, Gan Luo will naturally send people to deal with them.
The Assassination Legion has killed countless people over the years; how much blood is on their hands?
These individual cases alone are enough to make them die a thousand times over.
Moreover, the existence of the Assassination Pavilion itself poses a danger to the imperial court.
Although officials in the imperial court would seek favors from these people.
But in the end, they all paid the corresponding price.
At this moment, Lin Fengmian sensed that the Li residence was in danger.
In that instant, he drew his sword.
Lin Fengmian stood on the roof beam, drawing the attention of the enemy.
But unexpectedly, the danger disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Under the treatment of the miracle doctor, Li Shan has regained consciousness.
Li Shan was somewhat incredulous at that moment.
I never imagined I could actually come back to life.
Li Shan turned his gaze to Gan Luo and asked him a question.
"I have already sent men to kill Your Highness, why do you still want to save me now?"
"Everyone makes mistakes."
These few simple words suddenly changed Li Shan's opinion of Gan Luo.
An arrow shot towards Gan Luo.
Li Shan saw this and immediately saved Gan Luo, but the sword pierced right through Li Shan's body.
Gan Luo was lost in thought and did not notice anyone in the shadows.
"you……"
"Your Highness, this old minister was wrong. This old minister should not have misunderstood Your Highness. I hope that Your Highness can assist His Majesty well and help His Majesty become a great ruler."
How could Gan Luo not know this?
Gan Luo instructed the divine physician to take good care of Li Shan.
Unexpectedly, Li Shan grabbed Gan Luo's hand.
He handed Gan Luo a note.
At this moment, Gan Luo drew his sword and leaped onto the roof.
I saw three men in black here.
Gan Luo knew they were from the Assassination Pavilion.
What would happen if the assassination agents killed the buyer?
"This is all the official's own fault. He insisted on saving you, which is why he died. If anyone is to blame, it's that he brought this upon himself."
I never expected the people in the Assassination Pavilion to be so cold-blooded and ruthless.
Gan Luo thought he had done enough, but now he realized that they were not even worth a hair on his head.
The weapons they carried were all poisoned.
Gan Luo needs to be careful.
Hearing the sounds of fighting, Lin Fengmian hurriedly entered the inner courtyard.
After a fight, Gan Luo and Lin Fengmian successfully defeated the three men.
The official was already on his deathbed.
Officials kept apologizing to Gan Luo here.
The news of the official's death naturally spread.
The prime minister was puzzled by this. Why did this official want Gan Luo's life, but now he saved Gan Luo?
What exactly happened?
