บท 89: Kill the Scapegoat

Gu Shenwei had been suspicious of Guard Ju for murdering the prince when he had first met Guard Ju. Due to a lack of evidence, he had maintained his silence at that time. Now, he was accusing the guard of murder, which disappointed Tie Hanfeng very much. He was worried that his apprentice might not be able to solve this matter as he had just promised.

"How dare you?" The guard took a step forward and unsheathed half of his scimitar.

The minister stopped the guard in a hurried manner and turned to face Zhong Heng. He asked, "Commandant Zhong, what's going on? Accusing the prince's own guard of killing the prince! This is an insult to the Stone Kingdom. I hope..."

"I have evidence," Gu Shenwei announced loudly, drawing everyone's attention back to him.

Zhong Heng was the only person whose facial expression remained unchanged. "Let him finish," he suggested.
