Chapter 356: The Game of Life and Death on the Holy One

After being silent for a long time, Jun Wuregret said with a gloomy face: "Zhong Aiqing, now that the palace has been completely closed by me, next, I want to play a game of life and death with everyone. The rules of the game are very simple, I will let you see the edicts and letters brought by Phantom Lotus one by one, and then tell you what you think. Whether you agree or deny, you can also choose not to know. Either way, I will forgive you, as long as you tell the truth, otherwise you will be killed on the spot by the poisoned arrow in the center of your eyebrows! There is only one premise for survival, that is, to say the truest thoughts in your heart, once you talk nonsense, or even lie falsely, or cover up each other, there is only one end! That's death! But if you can tell the truth, even if you have done something rebellious, I will open the net and spare you from death! The reason why I am so angry today, and I don't hesitate to use the palace sealing organ to kill on a large scale, is to completely rectify the unhealthy trends that have accumulated in our dynasty for many years. Remove all obstacles for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to ascend the throne smoothly next month, and help the 10,000-year foundation of our Jun clan to keep it safe. Do you understand everything? ”

Just after Jun Wuregret said these words in front of the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty with a puzzled face, he waved his hand casually, only to see countless poisonous arrows flying around him, flying to the eyebrows of all ministers except Jun Wuregret himself and Jun Buyu, each minister has a poisonous arrow in the center of his eyebrows, and the arrow of the poisonous arrow is less than an inch away from the center of the eyebrows!

Such a close distance is enough for every minister to smell the fishy smell of the poisonous juice on the poisoned arrow, that is to say, Jun Wuregret did not scare everyone, but was really angry, once anyone dared to hide it, this extremely sharp poisonous arrow would unceremoniously pierce the eyebrows.

"Ministers...... Got it! All the ministers of civil and military affairs replied in unison.

It's just that this sudden poisoned arrow and the rules of the game of life and death made many ministers shudder a little when they answered, and they were obviously frightened.

Even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was sitting in the audience on the right, was extremely shocked, because this was still the first time he had seen his father deal with the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty with such a thunderous method.

Actually, not to mention that Jun Wuxian is not met, but the old ministers below who have followed Jun Wuregret for many years are stunned!

Because even they have never seen Jun Wuregret using such drastic means today! They also stared at the poisonous arrow in front of them and swallowed their saliva, and their whole bodies tightened, for fear of moving slightly, which stimulated the automatic killing function of the poisonous arrow.

Although it was the first time for everyone to experience the sealing mechanism, they had already heard of the power of poisoned arrows, and knew that this kind of poisonous arrows were extremely spiritual, and could automatically perceive subtle changes in the human body, such as constriction of pupils, increased body temperature, sweating, and even distortion of meridians due to heart weakness and tension.

Therefore, this poisoned arrow can accurately sense whether the person who is aimed at the center of the eyebrows is lying, after all, the conditioned reflex changes in the body of the person who tells the truth and the person who lies are completely different.

Although no one has witnessed the lie detector legend of the poisoned arrow, under the psychological effect of believing it or not, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty all understand that the next test is extremely difficult and must be treated carefully, otherwise the slightest mistake will be a catastrophe!

At the same time, I was even more curious about the edicts and letters that Phantom Lotus brought, and of course, more fear! After all, what is now in their eyes is a matter of life and death for everyone, how can it not make everyone's hearts palpitate?

When she saw that every minister of civil and military affairs had a poisoned arrow in the center of her eyebrows, Yanyu who was sitting in the audience on the left also had a fast heartbeat, although the poisoned arrow was not aimed at her eyebrows, but she seemed to smell the smell of near death.

As for the little seagull that stopped on her shoulder, she didn't have the cheerful and excited action she had before, but stood obediently on Yanyu's shoulder, tilting her head back and forth to look at the dense poisonous arrows in the entire hall, obviously for fear that if she moved a little, it would be miserable to attract a poisonous arrow.

What surprised Yanyu even more was that Jun Wuregret actually planned to directly show her edict and letters to all the ministers. If it's just Yizhi Yanyu, I don't care, but the content of the letter is Yanyu's heartfelt words to Jun Wuregret, and her overall plan, how can this be casually shown to all ministers?

In this way, wouldn't everyone know the intentions of the goddess and the empress dowager? That is to use the animals and birds in the whole world to track down the whereabouts of the Five Poisons Sect Base, as well as the location of the other ten Lotus Birth Heavenly Maidens.

There is also a more troublesome issue, that is, Yanyu also mentioned in the letter that Shangguan Zhe colluded with the Five Poisons Sect, and his conspiracy to entrust the Five Poisons Sect to assassinate the other ten Lotus Birth Heavenly Maidens to ensure that his daughter Shangguan Daiyun would eventually become the empress mother without dispute.

And at this moment, Shangguan Zhe is on top of this hall, with his ability to disguise the prestige he has accumulated in the court, as well as his identity as a benefactor who once saved the Holy Emperor without regrets, if there is no conclusive evidence, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military will not easily believe that he will be such a vicious villain.

Moreover, over the years, Shangguan Zhe should have bought off many officials in private, and it is not even excluded that there are many important ministers of the court on his side, these ministers know that they are in the same boat as Shangguan Zhe, both glory and loss, and naturally they will try their best to speak for him and lie to prove his innocence.

Once Jun kills him without regret, it will reduce the loyalty of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military to the saint, and feel that he is a faint monarch who kills innocents indiscriminately.

However, the brilliant Yan Yu immediately guessed Jun Wuregret's intention, that is, to use the deterrent power of the palace sealing agency to force Shangguan Zhe to admit his crimes, and as for the other ministers who had been in good communication with him, in the face of the threat of poisonous arrows that could only tell the truth, they could only expose Shangguan Zhe to save their lives.

Of course, there is an indispensable premise for this, that is, these weak-hearted ministers really believe in the lie detection ability of poison arrows, otherwise they will take risks and insist on lying to defend Shangguan Zhe, and if the poison arrows are not detected, such a deterrent force may not really be able to achieve the desired effect of Jun Wuregret.

If the polygraph fails in the end, and Shangguan Zhe denies the charge, and then returns to the mansion safe and sound, then the next Yanyu's divine favor plan will be meaningless.

Because Shangguan Zhe would definitely immediately secretly notify the leader of the Five Poisons Sect to take measures to prevent any animals and birds from approaching the Five Poisons Sect base, and even not hesitate to kill a large number of animals and birds, it would not be difficult for the Five Poisons Sect to be good at using poison.

Or they can also plan their plans, secretly capture the divine pets, use poison to force them to serve the Five Poisons Sect, and then use them to notify their fellow citizens to help find the whereabouts of the other ten Lotus Birth Heavenly Maidens, then Yanyu's plan will be a complete failure.

And even if Shangguan Zhe admits the crime, the other ministers who secretly communicated with him also confessed, and also identified Shangguan Zhe as the puppet of the Five Poisons Sect on the spot, and was even willing to cooperate with Jun Wuregret to eliminate the Five Poisons Sect, so according to Jun Wuregret's previous statement, he will not be guilty of the past, and if he is lenient, when the palace sealing organ is lifted and Shangguan Zhe and those ministers return to the mansion, the powerful Five Poisons Sect leader will definitely know everything that happened in the hall immediately.

Yanyu believed that the Five Poisons Sect had been deeply rooted in the Lotus Country for many years, and its members were all over the Lotus Country, and it was not uncommon for even the palace maids and royal guards in the palace to have members of the Five Poisons Sect, so as long as Jun Wuregret made the content of her letter public, it would definitely reach the ears of the Five Poisons Sect leader.

Another point is that Yanyu believes that the shrewd Five Poisons Sect Leader will not fully trust Shangguan Zhe, and it is impossible to completely tell Shangguan Zhe about the base, he and Shangguan Zhe are cooperative relations, to be precise, it is just some kind of interest relationship.

In this way, even if Shangguan Zhe is willing to cooperate with the elimination of the Five Poisons Sect, he can at most arrest some inconsequential members, and the real sect leader can't catch it at all, so that kind of purging will become meaningless.

Yanyu is convinced that as long as the leader of the Five Poisons Sect is still there, even if most of the members of the Five Poisons Sect are eliminated and their vitality is greatly damaged, there will still be a chance to make a comeback, and at that time, he will also adopt a new method to deal with the plan of the divine pet to find their base, even if they will not help Shangguan Zhe, who betrayed the Five Poisons Sect, assassinate the other ten Lotus Birth Heavenly Maidens, it will be difficult for Jun Wuregret to find a base and eradicate it in one fell swoop.

Then as long as the Five Poisons Sect still exists, the Lotus Kingdom will never be at peace. In time, the Five Poisons Sect Leader will also cultivate a second puppet like Shangguan Zhe, or even a second ambitious Shangguan Daiyun.

So after Jun Buyu ascends the throne, the palace of Liansheng Kingdom is still in danger, and it is not alarmist that it will be completely subverted one day in the future.

Thinking of this, Yanyu was also a little angry, feeling that she might really overestimate Jun Wuregret, and was very disappointed by Jun Wuregret's impulsive temporary thoughts.

But at this moment, even if she shows up to stop it, it will be difficult to end it, after all, you have no jokes, but it is counterproductive.

So Yanyu had no choice but to continue to wait and see, just to see how Jun Wuregret would continue next?

Let's see what the outcome of his plan will be.

If Shangguan Zhe was really allowed to escape in the end, Yanyu would have to find other ways to fight against the Five Poisons Sect and save the ten Lotus Heavenly Maidens.

It's just that there is really not much time left, because every day in the future, there is a high probability that a lotus birth goddess will be assassinated, so Yanyu suddenly felt a lot of pressure, but there was nothing to do.

I also regret letting Phantom Lian send Yi Zhi and letters over, but I feel that I should personally come and communicate with Jun Wuregret in private, so that there will not be such a passive situation at this moment.

Just when Yanyu fell into deep self-reproach, Jun Wuregret announced loudly again: "Since Zhong Aiqing has understood what I mean, then this game of life and death begins now. First of all, please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to take a look at the edict and the contents of the letter of the goddess and the Empress Dowager. Then, please go to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in turn to check the edicts and letters according to the official position, starting with the lowest official, and after reading it, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will ask questions, and then tell your thoughts truthfully. Once you lie, you do it at your own risk! If, after answering His Royal Highness the Prince's question, the poisoned arrow disappears on its own, it will be considered as passing the test. Just replace the next officer. Let's get started! ”

"Sons obey orders!" Jun Buyu stood up respectfully and said after Jun Wuregret announced the start. After finishing speaking, he motioned to Phantom Lian, who was kneeling on the ground, to pick up the edict and letter on the ground and send it to him.

So, Phantom Lotus hurriedly got up, picked up Yi Zhi and the letter, and carefully sent it to Jun Buyu.

After Jun Buyu took it, he looked at it carefully, but his expression became more and more surprised......
