"Lawless, outrageous! These bandits are really not to be jealous!" The first to react was a middle-aged official with a bookish aura. At this time, he was quite indignant and slapped the case several times, almost shaking up the wine glasses and dishes on his head.

With this opening, the others also came back to their senses and agreed. Another gray-haired old man sighed: "We have indeed underestimated the harm these thieves have to the people in the capital. Now it seems that it is indeed urgent to eradicate them. And the fact that Your Highness can decide to clear the Wuyou Cave is indeed a blessing for countless people!"

For a moment, there were many praises of praise in the hall. After hearing this praise, Zhao Heng showed even more joy on his face. He also felt that he had done a great thing for the country and the people, and his whole body was excited. After a moment, he smiled and said, "Teachers don't have to praise it so much. After all, people like Yue Hou are still doing things, and they have made great contributions. Moreover, in my opinion, although those bandits should be killed, the people in the court who defended them and covered their crimes are even more unforgivable. Yue Hou, what do you think?"

Sun Tu coldly watched these monarchs and ministers praising each other like acting, and suddenly found that the prince Zhao Heng was not as wise as he thought. Perhaps he had some ambitions, but just looking at the so-called close ministers gathered around him, he knew that his ability was limited. In addition, his irresponsible performance just now made him look down on the other party a lot.

At this time, when the prince was asked, Sun Tu was stunned at first, then nodded and said, "Your Highness is very saying. The bandits in Wuyou Cave are hateful, but it is even more damn to use them and instigate them to gain more benefits."

"It's well said, so I plan to take this as an opportunity to reveal the true faces of these people, and hope that Yue Hou can help me." Zhao Heng said, staring at Sun Tu with a bright look: "As long as you can hold the leader of the bandits in Wuyou Cave and let him explain the person behind the scenes and make it public, I believe that even if the father favors him, he will be severely punished. And all this will be entrusted to Yue Hou."

Feeling the other party's earnest expectations, Sun Tu finally fully understood the true purpose of the other party's secret helping him and using his own hands to eliminate the bandits in Wuyou Cave. This made him suddenly feel a little funny. The prince and his gangsters in front of him were so frustrated. He had to hide his feelings so much that he wanted to do something, and he looked completely shameful.

However, he did not investigate the whole story, but just nodded, and then asked: "Why do you think about how to deal with the bandits who fled into the underground waterway?" He had not revealed their evil deeds just now, but now he had a definite result. I wonder what the prince planned.

"This..." Zhao Heng hesitated again. But the old man just now looked down and looked at Sun Tu and said, "Mr. Yue, what do you mean? Are you trying to use such a thing to force Your Highness to take risks? Do you still have a little respect for Your Highness in your heart?"

"Marty Yue, you're not saying this. Can't you see the difficulties of Your Highness? If such a large-scale massacre really arises in the city, the government and the people will probably be shocked, and Your Majesty will investigate it to the end. By then, Your Highness will be blamed, and you and I can't afford to take it!" Then the middle-aged official agreed.

Others immediately spoke out, either tough or tactful. Even Di Huchen said in a hint: "Thousand miles away, this matter is very important, please think twice. Although these people are extremely guilty, they are not the culprits and evil. If they do not ask about everything, they may hurt your nobles' reputation of benevolence. Moreover, once this matter is done, it will inevitably attract a lot of obstruction and attention. Where will the crown prince be placed?"

Sun Tu listened to these people's refusal expressionlessly, and slowly, the corners of his mouth began to curl up and became a little ridiculous. These people actually meant that they did not want to take any responsibility. Whether it was the prince or themselves, they were just bystanders. All the charges were done by Sun Tu. Moreover, the situation could not be too big, otherwise they would be out of control and would be implicated.

He also wanted to get benefits by sweeping away the bandits in Wuyou Cave and use them to attack the political enemies in the court. He did not want to take any responsibility, so he only let Sun Tu stand in front and attracted all his attention. These people really had a good plan!

This made Sun Tu a little unable to understand why they dared to do this. After he was determined, he would definitely do what they said. Just in the name of a prince? Perhaps some foolish and loyal people would be willing to use it for them, regardless of all gains and losses, but Sun Tu never sacrificed himself unconditionally for others.

Until they said almost everything, Sun Tu spoke slowly: "If Your Highness really has no intention of eliminating all evil, then I have nothing to say. Anyway, some of the bandits in Wuyou Cave have been taken away, and it is impossible to do evil in the capital in a short period of time. I have an explanation to myself and others, so let's stop here." As he said that, he suddenly stood up, bowed to Zhao Heng, and then acted to leave.

"You...what are you?" Zhao Heng was a little stunned and asked anxiously. The others were even more stunned. Okay, after he said so much, this guy actually planned to give up?

However, Sun Tu ignored the prince's inquiry at all, but looked at Di Huchen: "Do you know why I was going to kill all the bandits this time?"

"Why?" Di Huchen was also curious. After all, Sun Tu really didn't have much interaction with those people, at least he thought so.

Of course, Sun Tu couldn't tell him the truth, and only revealed one of the reasons: "I just wanted to give up a vent for Ya'er. Back then, it was because of the thieves in Wuyou Cave who kidnapped Ya'er from the Di family, which made her suffer a lot. For many years, it was difficult for her family to go back and have relatives. Since I was her husband, I had the responsibility to vent her anger."

Di Huchen was stunned. The others were also stunned after understanding Sun Tu's words. This must be a willful person who can do such a big deal for a woman. But at the same time, they also gave them a further understanding of Sun Tu. This guy is a real person of intent. Once he makes a decision, he will do whatever the consequences!

Sun Tu looked at everyone again, and finally his eyes fell on the prince: "Actually, at this point, my purpose of revenge has been achieved. It doesn't matter whether the thieves and bandit leaders can be arrested. Anyway, they cannot be the culprits of the abducting Yaer more than ten years ago, so it doesn't matter whether they take it or not. Since Your Highness wants to let people go, then I will naturally obey the orders and stop."

"You..." Zhao Heng's face changed instantly, and he was angry, but when he spoke, he didn't know what to say.

Then, several other ministers shouted, "Sun Tu, you are so brave! You dare not obey Your Highness's orders and dare to use such things to threaten Your Highness. Do you know what you are doing?"

Facing the scolding, Sun Tu's sarcastic smile became even stronger: "Why can't I understand a single word of what you said? I have never had any legitimate orders for this matter. I just asked someone to help me, so why didn't I follow the order?"

This made everyone feel a little confused about how to answer. In fact, this is true. They have never participated in this incident against the thieves in Wuyou Cave on the surface. Everything was done secretly. After all, such things are not enough.

Sun Tu's words continued, but his words became more and more unacceptable: "Although the crown prince is the crown prince, he is not the king after all. How could I have to obey his wishes? We are just using each other and taking what we need. Since you are unwilling to help me, why should I take the risk of being pursued by Your Majesty later to help you make a big deal?

"By the way, now only those who know the whereabouts of the thieves and the brothers under me, the Ministry of Justice Street Division and Kaifeng Prefecture don't know the exact location. So even if the prince wants them to help take the thieves' head, it's hard to do so. Moreover, the news is about to reach them. Maybe when the thieves there will be escape, leave Tokyo, or they will also escape into the waterway below like others. But I wonder if you can still catch him from it!"

Without any cover, Sun Tu just used the most straightforward words to tell them, "Yes, I'm just using this matter to threaten you to follow my request and cooperate with me to eliminate the bandits below. At worst, it's just a matter of apart!"

Di Huchen was shocked. Sun Tu was too brave. The crown prince was also a king. Even if Zhao Heng had no real power connections in the court now, a few years later, once the official family died, he would become the new king? How should Sun Tu handle himself?

But he didn't know that Sun Tu really didn't take Zhao Hengtai in front of him to heart, because he didn't even take Zhao Ji seriously, let alone a fallen country-Zhengjun who could only merge with his father to become a shameful Han people. If he threatened, he would threaten, and if he offended, he would offend him. What's there to be afraid of?

Zhao Heng's body began to tremble violently, and he was really angry. No one dared to despise or even despise himself so much. Even the powerful ministers in front of Cai Jing and other fathers, although they were not in the same position as him, their surface respect and respect were still there. After all, the status of the monarch and the ministers were always there. But Sun Tu, at this time, no matter whether he spoke or demeanor, he had no intention of talking to the monarch, and his strong sense of threat could not be blocked.
