Chapter 22: The Truth Emerges

When a few people arrived at the main hall of Dali Temple, Ning Wang Xiao Mufeng, Dali Temple Qing Xing Yuan, Zhou Shixiu, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and Zuo Yuhuai, the imperial history of the Imperial Inspectorate, had already arrived, after a cup of tea, the Yang brothers and sisters of Wu Guo also arrived, Princess Singh was wearing a cherry pink brocade dress, when her eyes swept over Lin Qingzhi, her eyes were facing each other, Lin Qingzhi smiled and nodded slightly, a trace of confusion climbed on Princess Singh's face and disappeared, and was replaced by a smile in return, but when Yang Jue's eyes swept over Lin Qingzhi's face, there was a touch of surprise in her eyes.

At three o'clock, a shrill voice shouted, "The emperor has arrived", and after three shouts, the emperor took the throne and the trial began.

Immediately, it was Gu Chengxuan, who was unkempt and his hands were shackled, and he came to the hall under the urging of the two jailers, knelt on the ground with a plop, and wept bitterly: "The villain's crime deserves death, knowing that the capital crime he has committed, it is not a pity to die, but I don't want the real murderer to get away with it, and I don't want the world to fall into the hands of murderers who are like murderers in the future." ”

Hearing this, the emperor slowly changed from reclining on the chair to leaning forward, his eyes shining and unusually sharp, and he said sharply: "What do you mean, who instructed you?" ”

"The villains are all acting on the orders of the prince, if it weren't for the prince's life, he wouldn't dare to assassinate the prince and the important ministers of the court if he gave the villain a hundred dares, but I didn't expect the prince to be ruthless, and in the end he didn't even let go of the villain, killing the villain's brother and wife is not enough, even the villain has to be ruthless, I just hope that the emperor will deal with it with the princess, and the life of the villain and the ants will not be a pity to die, I just want to ask for justice for the villain's wife and brothers." The more Gu Chengxuan spoke, the more sad he became, but he didn't feel pain when he pounded the ground with his hands, and Yin Yin red flowed out of his knuckles.

"Can you conclude that it was the prince who did it just by your words, and who knows if this is a false accusation?" Dali Temple Qing Xing Yuan said loudly.

"The villain knows all the things, if you don't believe it, you can ask the injured prince of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, the poison on the arrow in him is called Drunken Hongyan, which is owned by the royal family of Southern Chu State, and the prince is dissatisfied with the emperor's weakening of the power of his mother Queen Wang's relatives, and secretly agreed with Chu State If he ascends the throne in the future, the three southwestern counties will be owned by Chu State." Gu Chengxuan said in an orderly manner.

Seeing that Gu Chengxuan said that Lin Qingji was poisoned by the drunken red face was conclusive, after all, this matter was indeed unknown to others except for the emperor Xiao Mufeng and the three members of the Lin family, the emperor's face was gloomy as ice, and when everyone was recalling the information in the words of this criminal, they only heard three crisp applause, and everyone couldn't help but look in the direction of the sound.

Lin Qingzhi walked slowly in front of the prisoner, the goose-yellow dress behind her spread out like a blooming flower under her feet, the rose powder in her hair flickered and drew a cold light, staring at Gu Chengxuan and said: "It's really a good show, it's a pity"

Everyone stared at Lin Qingzhi in surprise, and then she suddenly pulled up Gu Chengxuan's sleeves, there was nothing on her bronzed arm, and a subtle sneer appeared on the corner of Princess Singh's mouth on the side. After a moment of surprise, Lin Qingzhi ordered someone to bring iodine powder and sprinkle it on Gu Chengxuan's arm, and after a while, the crescent moon tattoo pattern slowly emerged from the ancient bronze arm, and Princess Singh showed a trace of panic on her face, but after a moment, she adjusted her complexion.

"May I ask Princess Singh, do you recognize this pattern?" Lin Qingzhi's eyes were scorching, and she turned her head to look at Princess Singh in a cold voice, everyone was surprised, how could a princess of Wu have something to do with assassination?

"What does the county lord mean by this, this princess is just an envoy to the Jin Kingdom, how can she know the pattern on his hand, please think twice about it, don't wronged the good people" Princess Singh looked innocent, and her tone was also angry after being slandered.

"Oh? The county lord is willing to prove his innocence, uncover his sleeves, let me wait and see if the pattern on your arm is the same as this pattern" Lin Qingzhi smiled, but his eyes were as cold as iron, and there was no trace of temperature.

"Bold, this princess jade body, how can you say and look at it, I have heard that the county lord of Zhaoning is not only beautiful, but also intelligent, I didn't expect the Great Jin Kingdom to treat the envoys of other countries like this?" Princess Singh looked aggrieved and wanted to cry. It's just that Singh couldn't understand how a daughter of the Hou Mansion who didn't show up very often would know that she had a tattoo on her arm, and after a short period of contemplation under the pretext of crying, she immediately thought of it, no wonder Lin Qingzhi was so familiar at first glance just now, the woman who helped her in Luoyang City that day was obviously easy, why could she know that she was the princess of Wu Kingdom......

"Since the princess doesn't want to, then can the princess know this?" Lin Qingzhi took out a small piece of paper from Guangxiu, and without opening it, Princess Singh and Yang Jue's faces instantly turned as white as paper, but she didn't expect that her careful planning would be seen through by a little woman who was not more than twenty years old, and she was shocked.

"Then it seems that the princess has met" Lin Qingzhi's wide sleeves were gently raised, like a butterfly flapping its wings and flying high.

"Everyone should be surprised, then I'll uncover the fog for you" Lin Qingzhi's face suddenly turned sharp.

"The royal family of Wu has been preparing for the establishment of an organization loyal to the royal family since twenty years ago, and the crescent moon tattoo is the totem of this organization, once it is printed forever, it is equivalent to eternal allegiance to the imperial power of Wu, and the assassin arm of Ning Wangfu is also there, and the secret guard of His Royal Highness King Ning found out that the right envoy of Zoroastrianism in the Western Regions is also a spy sent by Wu State, and the drunken red face is all true to the royal family of Chu State, but it is a noble concubine favored by Emperor Chu who is in charge of this thing, and the brother of this noble concubine is Zeng Yu, the prime minister of Chu State. Zeng Yu and Zeng Guifei also have crescent moon tattoos on their arms, Princess Singh, do you say it's a coincidence? Lin Qingzhi smiled, her eyes rolled slightly, but suddenly a trace of sharpness flashed, and she said word by word.

Princess Singh prides herself on being smart, she has been praised by the people around her since she was a child, and she never thinks that she has lost to her brothers and sisters, but she hates why she was not born as a man, and at this moment she was actually defeated by a petite woman of a similar age, and it will be difficult to accept this fact in her heart for a while, she can't figure out why she, Lin Qingzhi, a woman in the deep mansion of the Hou Gate, can understand everything, why even the Chu Guo Zeng clan is loyal to the Dark Night Gate knows, and there is a cold sweat behind her.

"Wu State has been increasing troops on the border of Wu and Chu two months ago, at this time, if you can cause my Jin State to hate Chu State to the bone, not to mention to help you Southern Wu, it is also the most powerful help to your Wu State, and wait for you to breathe and then fight against my Jin State, at that time, even if my Jin State knows your plan, it is helpless, in addition, if you succeed in assassination, destroy the famous Zhenyuan general of my Jin State, and kill a prince, it is a double eagle with one stone for you, but unfortunately the sky does not follow people's wishes, My father and King Ning have a big life, so you will use this to frame the prince, anyway, the prince will be abolished, and the other princes will be infighting, and your Wu Kingdom can benefit from the fisherman, which is really a good wishful thinking. Lin Qingzhi's voice was sharp, and the cold in her eyes was about to condense into a sharp arrow and shoot straight at Princess Singh.

"Your Majesty is here, can you allow a daughter of Xiangguo to spew people with blood like this?" Princess Singh, who couldn't figure out her thoughts for a while, her eyes were hazy with tears, but her eyes were bright and she defended.

Everyone was still immersed in Lin Qingzhi's terrifying words and did not react, and after a while, after a burst of whispering, they all cast approving and amazing glances, of course, except for the hateful and murderous gaze of the Yang brothers and sisters.

"The evidence is conclusive, I never thought that your Wu country had such wolf ambitions." The old emperor's hair trembled, and he pointed at the Yang brothers and sisters and said angrily, but the people were envoys of the Wu State, and if they were killed according to the laws of the Jin State, it would inevitably lead to a war between the two countries, so this trial was over, but there was never an airtight wall, and what happened that day was still rumored by the streets and alleys, and Lin Qingzhi's tongue battle against the Yang brothers and sisters to expose their true colors was also praised.
