Chapter 250: Midnight Trial
I was thrown into the prison by the Heavenly Soldiers. The four walls were tightly closed, and I fell to the ground.
It was another prison sentence, and I couldn't take my mind off it.
There was a lot of chaos in my heart, and I shook my head vigorously and began to organize my thoughts.
The white fox stabbed the Heavenly Monarch's heavenly eye, and the white fox killed Ying Li's child, and then I was taken to the heavenly prison as a white fox. It seems that I suffered a calamity and carried the black cauldron for the white fox, but in fact, I also benefited from one thing, that is, the Heavenly Monarch can see me when he opens his eyes, and I will no longer show the grass body in front of him. It seems that an unsolvable curse has been broken because of the destruction of the Heavenly Eye, but what kind of future will the Heavenly Monarch face if he loses the Heavenly Eye? The scene of him falling from the dragon chair is still faintly recognizable.
In the prison, I was a mud bodhisattva who crossed the river and could not protect myself, but I didn't spend too much time worrying about myself, but more worried about the heavenly monarch.
Sitting on the ground, I couldn't help but laugh self-deprecatingly. I'm afraid that at this moment, Tianjun Longyan is furious, and he can't wait to skin and eat my flesh, where do you need my worries?
I was stunned when the door of the cell slammed open, and Yang Jian walked in. I hurriedly got up from the ground, "General Yangβ"
"Zhu!" Yang Jian walked up to me and said with his eyebrows condensed, "How could Tianjun recognize the wrong person?" β
"It's good that you're not mistaken, and I have a witness."
Yang Jian said: "The best witness is the Shenying attendant. As long as he explains to Tianjun that the fairy daughter on the painting is you, not the white fox, and the white fox pretending to recognize you, then things will take a turn for the better. Jiangzhu, you stay in the cell first, and I'll go to the Shenying waiter. β
Yang Jian said and hurried away.
Yang Jian left. Then the Queen Mother of the West came. She stood gracefully in front of me, and made the whole cell shine.
I knelt at her feet, tilted my head, and said eagerly: "The Heavenly Monarch doesn't know that I am Jiangzhu, but the Queen Mother knows!" I'm not a white fox, I'm a Zhu, and I asked the Queen Mother to make a proof for the Zhu. β
The Queen Mother of the West looked at me incredulously, with a playful smile on her lips, "The mourning family has long told you that the white fox is a conspiracy of the mourning family. The purpose is to deal with you. How can you expect the mourners to testify for you? β
I was stunned and looked at the Queen Mother of the West in confusion, "You actually sacrificed the Heavenly Monarch's Heavenly Eye in order to deal with me?" β
"It was an accident. The mourning family didn't expect the white fox to be so bold! So the white fox originally had merit. Now it is a great sin. Don't let you live! The Queen Mother of the West's eyes were cold, and her voice was also chilling.
I smiled bitterly, "After all, the white fox is just a pawn of yours. It's just that you didn't expect you to be used by your own pawns. You used the white fox to deal with me, but the white fox borrowed your hand to avenge her sister, you and the white fox, you can't tell who is the operator. β
The Queen Mother of the West's momentum was a little weak, but soon she became sharp and bitter, "No matter who wins or loses between me and the white fox, you are the one who suffers." β
Why not? I sneered: "Is it really worth it for my mother to do this?" In order to deal with me, he did not hesitate to sacrifice the Heavenly Monarch's Heavenly Eye, and if he knew this, it would be better to let himself fend for himself on the Forgotten Worry Plain that day. β
"The benevolence of the mourning family, brewing today's tragic situation, is that the mourning family is too confident and underestimating the enemy, the mourning family will clean up the mess, but for now, get rid of the white fox first, and then clean you up."
"Niangniang wants to get rid of the white fox, why don't you get rid of the beads together?"
Queen Mother Xi's eyes swept over my face, indescribably arrogant, "The mourning family to remove the white fox is to cut off your back road, you must know that now in the eyes of the Heavenly Monarch, you are not a pearl but a white fox, you have blinded the Heavenly Monarch's Heavenly Eye, can the Heavenly Monarch still let you live?" β
What a sinister mother-in-law. My body shook slightly, but I still forced myself to calm down: "It's not a pity that Jiangzhu died, but can the Heavenly Monarch's Heavenly Eye be restored?" β
"You don't have to worry about this." The Queen Mother of the West said and walked away.
************************
I spent a day worrying in my cell, and finally waited for Yang Jian. When Yang Jian appeared in front of me again, he looked sullen. I looked at him with an inquiring gaze, and only listened to him, "Do you know what the Shen Ying attendant said to me?" β
"Say what?"
"He said that the fairy daughter he painted was indeed a white fox, not a pearl."
I'm completely ignorant, hasn't Shen Ying always claimed to be my good friend? Why didn't you help me at a critical moment? I suddenly remembered that the Queen Mother of the West had said that the white fox was a conspiracy of hers, and so was Shen Ying.
I felt like I was falling into an ice cave, and I was completely cold. Maybe I fell for a scam from the beginning. My reunion with Shen Ying, and the subsequent painting and learning of music and rhythm were all designed in advance, and I myself just empathized with the people and things in the ancient love tribulation to the heavenly court in this life, and I didn't realize that the heavenly palace was already a human being. It is very likely that Shen Ying taught me the rhythm of music and the white fox at the same time, otherwise how could the white fox summon the divine dragon and play the "Jade Pot Dark Incense" like me?
My heart flashed even more: the white fox and Shen Ying had actually known each other for a long time, and they accepted the task of the Queen Mother of the West together, and their affection was deep, maybe the white fox disappeared because Shen Ying hid her traces.
I suddenly remembered that Shen Ying's behavior in the ice cellar of Xiaoxiang Pavilion was a little suspicious that day, and I hurriedly said to Yang Jian: "If the general has the heart to rescue Jiangzhu, he might as well sneak into the ice cellar of Xiaoxiang Pavilion in the middle of the night to explore again, maybe there will be gains." β
"You mean the white fox might be hiding in the ice cellar?" Yang Jian frowned.
I nodded, "The general also wants to avenge his son, and Jiangzhu wants to get revenge as soon as possible." β
Yang Jian pursed his lips and walked away.
Watching Yang Jian's long black cloak disappear at the door of the prison, I could only pray silently in my heart, hoping that Yang Jian would find the white fox before the Queen Mother of the West killed people.
*********************
Sitting on the bed of the prison, I took out the colorful shellfish and played it sullenly. The sad tune of "The Dark Fragrance of the Jade Pot" permeated the entire cell, and I heard the sound of sobbing from the colorful shells, it was the golden dragon.
I stopped playing and blew seven notes, and the golden dragon flew out of the colorful shells. The golden dragon scales shimmered, and the golden dragon flew in front of me. He looked at me sadly: "Master, you are very sad. β
How can you not be sad? Ill-fated, I want to seek a place to live and live, but it is so difficult. I gave the golden dragon a bitter smile in return.
Jin Long said: "Master, I will go to Tianjun to intercede." β
Jin Long swam to the door of the cell as he spoke, and I called out to him, "Little Jin, come back!" β
The golden dragon obediently swam back in front of me, his body floating in the air, his eyes looking at me innocently. "The host ......"
I stroked his head. gave him a perked smile, "If you come, you will be safe, the Heavenly Monarch is angry, and he won't believe what you say." β
"The hosts. So what do we do? If the Heavenly Monarch keeps us locked up......"
"What we need to do is wait." My hand was on the horn of Little Gold. I need to wait. Wait for Yang Jian to find out the white fox. Then go to court with the white fox and let her make all her crimes and the ugly deeds that blame me public.
Yang Jian didn't let me wait too long, in the middle of the night. The door to the prison was opened. The Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals lifted me out of the Heavenly Prison, and the public hall was not set up on the Lingxiao Palace, but went to the Queen Mother's Palace.
I know why. Tianjun can no longer sit on that dragon chair, and this secret cannot be known to the civil and military immortals for the time being. So the Queen Mother of the West sat in the Queen Mother Palace, and the Heavenly Monarch and the immortals were invited to the Queen Mother Palace.
On the top of the main hall, the Heavenly Monarch and the Queen Mother of the West sat high, the immortals were on both sides, and Yang Jian knelt in the center of the main hall.
When the heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals escorted me to the palace, Yang Jian knelt down and asked: "The white fox stabbed the heavenly monarch and caused my child to be stillborn, which is really a great crime, and please ask the queen mother to uphold justice and punish the white fox!" β
"Jian'er, you don't need to ask, the mourning family will execute the white fox."
As soon as the Queen Mother of the West spoke, the heavenly soldiers and generals escorted me into the main hall: "The white fox is brought!" β
I was kicked by someone, and I fell to my knees beside Yang Jian. Yang Jian lowered his eyebrows and glanced at me, and then reported to the Queen Mother of the West and Tianjun: "Tianjun, Queen Mother, this is not a white fox, it is a pearl!" β
I raised my eyes to see the immobile expression of the Queen Mother of the West and the suspicious gaze of the Heavenly Monarch. I looked at the Heavenly Monarch with prief, wondering if he would believe me.
The Queen Mother of the West smiled indifferently, "In the entire Heavenly Court, except for the Mourning Family, only the Heavenly Monarch has seen the face of the white fox, and the Heavenly Monarch knows best what the white fox looks like." β
I was a little desperate, and the ardent hope for the Heavenly Monarch in my eyes gradually faded.
Isn't the white fox that Tianjun sees every day look like me? The first thing he said when he opened his eyes was to let the heavenly soldiers and generals take down my white fox.
Yang Jian said unhurriedly: "The white fox has another person!" As he spoke, as soon as Yang Jian waved his hand, a heavenly soldier and a heavenly general walked up with another me. The fairy daughter had the same clothes and the same face as me, but she seemed to be wounded and had not yet healed, and she walked a little staggeringly. That's the real white fox.
The white fox walked up to me and knelt down, and gave me a gorgeous smile with a sideways look.
The hall was full of astonished eyes. Tianjun looked at me and the white fox kneeling on the ground, and frowned slightly, but his lips were pursed and he didn't speak.
I secretly wondered where Yang Jian found the white fox, was it in the ice cellar of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion?
The Queen Mother of the West looked like she was holding a bamboo in her chest, and said with a silent smile: "This is strange, there are two white foxes kneeling in the palace, and it is difficult for the mourning family to distinguish the true from the fake." β
"I'm not a white fox, I'm a pearl." The white fox said decisively.
I looked sideways at the white fox beside me in surprise, her face was calm and unfazed.
The white fox actually snatched my lines, which made me speechless for a while.
"White Fox, you are so brazen, first assassinated the Heavenly Monarch, and then pretended to be a pearl to hurt my wife and harm my child, at this moment you are still ashamed to continue to pretend to be a pearl, unrepentant, the crime is extremely evil, and please ask the Queen Mother and the Heavenly Monarch to deal with it impartially and severely punish the white fox!" Yang Jian took a deep look.
The white fox smiled coldly: "General Yang, there is a debtor who is wronged, and the crimes committed by the white fox are free for the white fox to bear, but I am Jiangzhu, and I can't ask me to take the blame for the white fox because I have the same face as the white fox, right?" β
"If you're a bead, who am I?" I looked at the white fox aggressively, and the white fox was stunned.
Tianjun finally spoke, "I was in the same room with the white fox and the pearl, but I didn't know that the white fox and the pearl actually had the same face. The two of you both say that you are Zhuzhu, what is the evidence? β
"In the past, the Zhuzhu could only show the Heavenly Monarch with a grass body, but now the two of them can transform into human forms in front of the Heavenly Monarch, and the mourning family doesn't know which one is the real Zhu." The Queen Mother of the West said hypocritically.
Tianjun was still not in a hurry, and said calmly: "There is a colorful shell on the body of the pearl, and it can summon the divine dragon by playing seven musical notes, I don't know which of the two of you has such a ability?" β
When the Heavenly Monarch put forward this condition, my heart became depressed, how can the white fox summon the divine dragon? She can also play "Jade Pot Dark Incense". So when the white fox and I each took out the colorful shells, each blew seven musical notes, and each summoned two golden dragons, Tianjun's brows twisted into a big pimple.
The Queen Mother of the West still smiled and said, "It seems that it is still impossible to judge which is the real Zhu." β
As soon as the Queen Mother of the West finished speaking, the Heavenly Monarch suddenly raised his hand, and two hidden weapons flew out of his sleeve, shooting at me and the white fox respectively. Caught off guard, neither I nor the white fox had time to dodge. The two golden dragons flew towards me and the white fox respectively, and they fell to the ground in response to the magic weapon, and blood splattered on the spot.
"Little Kimβ" I shouted in panic and pounced on the golden dragon.
The white fox over there behaved exactly like me.
Xiao Jin twitched in pain on the ground, and after a while, he lost his breath and whimpered. My teary eyes blurred with a glimpse of the white fox's equally weeping smug gaze.
"The two golden dragons also protect the master, it seems that these two pearls are really difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake." As soon as the Queen Mother of the West finished speaking, the golden dragon in front of me writhed again and came back to life.
I was surprised and delighted, but also ignorant, as soon as I looked up and saw the kind and tender eyes of the Heavenly Monarch, my heart trembled: It is the Resurrection Pill! (To be continued......)
