Chapter 178: The Case
In the blink of an eye, dozens of forbidden army soldiers in the Wude Palace, the imperial guards had already unsheathed their blades and surrounded the woman, even so, everyone was still on guard.
Many students spontaneously formed a human wall and firmly protected the emperor behind them.
The ministers were also shocked and discolored.
The ring match was held in the Wude Palace, everyone had to bring weapons, and the emperor was very interested, but in fact, the imperial guards and forbidden troops, as well as the people in the Imperial City Division, were very nervous.
Although the people who can appear here have been investigated by the eighteen generations of their ancestors, who can guarantee that there will be no accidents when they are beaten all day long and are pecked blind?
The people of the forbidden army had already surrounded the Wude Palace, and the guards around the emperor had been strengthened more than five times.
The emperor behaved as a corporal of courtesy, happily buying people's hearts, and when he was a subordinate, he had to work hard for days and nights.
If there is any way, if you eat the court, you have to share your worries for the king.
This is what to be afraid of, everyone is most worried about accidents, but there is an accident!
asked people to bring the crossbow arrows to the Wude Palace, and the commander of the forbidden army came down in a cold sweat at that time, and decided to turn around and not die, and cut these little rabbit cubs first.
The guards of the Forbidden Army rushed over in two steps, searching the woman three times before and after, but did not find a crossbow or anything like that.
Yang Yuying said: "This person has amazing arm strength, and the arrow just now was thrown by her hand......"
Before the words fell, the woman screamed miserably, and her limbs were broken.
Yang Yuying: "......"
The woman screamed bitterly, and while shouting, she yelled at Xia Zhiming: "You are a humane thing, kill your grandfather, you should go to eighteen layers of hell, why don't you die, why don't you die!" I won't let you go, and I won't let you go! β
She howled like mad, and her screams were terrible.
Everyone in the hall couldn't help but look sideways.
The cadres of Changping Academy immediately instinctively made a protective posture and protected Xia Zhiming.
Liu Guogong's body trembled slightly, his face was pale, and he roared angrily: "Where did you come from, crazy woman, talking nonsense!" My son is fine, who will I kill? β
Before his words fell, the emperor was also furious in his heart, his face sank, and he said coldly: "Drag it down!" β
The guards of the forbidden army were not rough people who would not perceive the holy will, so they hurriedly gagged their mouths and dragged people out in a hurry.
But I never thought that this woman had great strength, although her limbs were broken, she could breathe in her chest, and she actually squirted out a gag sweat towel and cried: "Xia Zhiming, you know that you are the son of my father Zhou Chong, and you dare to kill my grandfather, are you not afraid of retribution?" Oh, too, your mother is the eldest princess of Dashun Anle, the most beloved sister of the emperor, you even killed your own father, and no one dared to say that you were not, right? β
There was an uproar in the hall.
The emperor was furious: "What is the use of keeping her for such a fool of the people, kill!" β
The guards of the forbidden army were about to start, and several old ministers hurriedly knelt down and pleaded: "Your Majesty think twice." β
The emperor was stunned, but in the end he still listened to the persuasion, closed his eyes, waved his hand, and the guards stopped.
The ministers all lowered their heads and breathed a sigh of relief, this woman is the granddaughter of Zhou Zhao, and she is also an envoy of the country, although it is not a pity to die, but the relationship between Dashun and the country is precarious, and when it comes to matters related to the country, you must always be a little more careful.
What's more, if she is killed, then the words in her mouth will come true immediately.
The noble minister's mind didn't know how many turns he had turned for a moment, and the emperor's performance just now was a little wrong.
Xia Zhiming stood under the ring, and the words of the crazy woman just now were still swirling in his mind, but he couldn't understand those words for a while, his eyes were blank, and his limbs gradually cooled down.
The emperor took a deep breath at this time, calmed down a lot, and turned his head to signal left and right.
"Report - Dali Temple Qing Wang Zhao, Criminal Department Shangshu Guo Huai, Jingzhao Yin Gaolin to meet you!"
The three ministers brought their respective subordinates, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, the two waiters of the Criminal Department, and the famous king of the capital was not easy to enter the main hall.
The emperor stared at them for a long time, and said sharply: "There is a woman today who accuses Zhou Zhao of being killed, can you know about this matter?" β
Wang Buyi silently raised his head and looked at Xia Zhiming, as a well-known god in the capital, he has handled countless big and small cases, this time the case is very obvious, but he always feels that something is wrong in his heart.
But at this time, on the top of the main hall, His Majesty is on the throne, and hundreds of civil and military officials are in the ranks, he is not sure to say anything, he was silent for a moment, or said: "Back to Your Majesty, Zhou Zhao, the master of the organ, was killed in Liangshuipo, three miles outside the Yongji Mausoleum, yesterday, and some witnesses said that the murderer was Xia Zhiming, the son of the Duke of Liuguo. β
The hall was silent.
Wang Buyi stopped, looked up and asked Xia Zhiming: "Where was Xia Gongzi yesterday?" β
Xia Zhiming looked at him quietly, but he didn't say a word.
The mad woman suddenly looked up: "Phew! β
A mouthful of blood spitted at Xia Zhiming's body.
Xia Zhiming was motionless, and just as the dirt was about to fall on his green robe, a folding fan happened to fly in and block it for him.
At this time, Xia Zhiming seemed to wake up and slowly turned his head.
"If you want revenge, please don't find the wrong person."
The silent Wude Hall was suddenly broken by a voice.
Among the many students in the hall, a young man slowly walked out.
The young man looked a little weak, so much so that some people recognized itβthis was not the Lin official of Changping Academy?
Lin Guan did not seize the position of the champion, and the winning rate was not very high, compared with Zhao Yan, Yang Jingze and other masters, the results were bleak.
But among the masters of the major famous academies, there are always some people who notice that there are not many famous masters who have lost under him.
Xia Zhiming turned his head and followed Lin Guan's figure lightly.
Lin Guan didn't look at him, walked straight to His Majesty today, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Zhou Zhao was killed by Lin Guan." β
A group of students in Changping: "......"
Yang Yuying was also a little surprised.
Only Xia Zhiming was expressionless, just turned his head slowly and didn't look at him again.
Lin Guan said again: "Last night, Lin Guan went to Cuixiang Building for recreation, and on the way back, he happened to bump into Zhou Zhao and the master of Lanyuan. β
"Lin overheard them talking, those people in Lanyuan have stolen my Dashun Dengzhou garrison map, and it will be handed over to Zhou Zhao in a few days, Lin was shocked, and he couldn't help but show traces and be discovered by Zhou Zhao."
There was no expression on his face, he was silent for a moment, and said word by word, "I can only fight up, but I didn't expect to miss him and kill him by mistake." β
Zhou Zhao's granddaughter had not been dragged away, and she was stunned when she heard the words, and then she howled: "Nonsense, I saw it, I heard it, my grandfather was with Xia Zhiming at that time, how could I not recognize that face!" β
Lin Guan sighed softly, brushed his hand lightly on his face, his face was suddenly exactly the same as Xia Zhiming, and when he spoke again, his voice was the same as his.
"I've loved pretending to be him since I was a child, what's so difficult about pretending to be him."
Zhou Zhao's granddaughter was stunned and speechless, and was dragged away by the guards after all, and the gaze of Long Live Lord was so gloomy that these guards were a little frightened.
The people in the main hall had not paid attention to these things for a long time, and almost everyone was shocked when they heard that the other party had stolen the garrison map.
