After four days of marching, all the southbound troops arrived at Chang'an City.

As soon as the city gate opened, the crowd of people who welcomed them warmly greeted them, watching the grand scene of the triumphal return to the court.

However, this spectacle had nothing to do with me, and I sat in the carriage and watched the crowds of people on both sides of the road through the curtains, and the soldiers walked with their heads held high, and looked more energetic than they had been in battle.

Although King Yu did not die for the night general to win the battle, but in the eyes of this group of naïve people, what was lying in this coffin was nothing more than a heroic warrior.

The prince sat on his horse and said nothing. There was not the slightest joy or cheerfulness, not at all like his previous style, although the people on both sides of the road were praising the prince's bravery, and even I could hear it clearly as I sat in the carriage. This war did not lose a single soldier or general, and all returned to Chang'an, and Chang'an City has never been so beautiful in the war for so many years.

However, a war has changed the fate of too many people, but they don't know what happened in that land.

The soldiers returned to the barracks, and all the generals had to enter the palace to meet them.

White flags and couplets have been hung on the noon gate, and all the guards in the palace are wearing white filial piety clothes, standing at the gate of the palace waiting for us. King Yu's coffin was carefully lifted by the group and walked towards the palace. The palace maid carried a bamboo basket in her hand, and the white paper money was sprinkled in the air, like pieces of falling snowflakes, cruel and cold.

Everyone followed the coffin of King Yu and walked to the palace of King Yu, where the saint and the queen mother, as well as several concubines were already waiting in the palace, they were all dressed in white plain, describing mourning.

By the time the coffin was carried to the middle of the room, several mothers were already sobbing softly.

"Knock on the Holy One!" Lord Night and several generals knelt on the ground and saluted, and I knelt on the ground with me. The prince knelt beside me, and since he entered the palace, he has stayed by my side, not leaving an inch.

"Get up...... the saint raised his hand, his voice was vicissitudes and aging, and the pain of the white-haired man sending the black-haired man was not something that everyone in this world could bear.

He looked at everyone and said: "The victory in the first battle of southern Xinjiang is indispensable, but my son King Yu died tragically, and it is not appropriate to celebrate in the palace. ”

"The saint is serious, this battle in southern Xinjiang was successfully resolved, it was Princess Qingyi who turned the tide, and the ministers were unsuccessful, I am really ashamed." The Night General knelt on the ground and explained, I knew he was trying to speak for me.

I looked up at the saint, and at this moment his eyes were like empty and emotionless puppets, looking at me for no reason, I could not see the approval or resentment in his eyes, and with such a slight glance, I knew that the concubine had already blown the wind in the ears of the saint, but the saint did not believe me, nor did he believe her.

And the concubine next to her, her face was already gray, she looked at me, with a look of horror and anger in her eyes, I guess she didn't think about it at all, I dare to come back. She looked at me and then at the Holy One, but the Holy One remained silent and did not speak.

Suddenly, the concubine Niangniang plopped down and knelt on the ground, tugging at the corner of the saint's clothes with a sad face, and begged: "Saint, you punish the concubine, the concubine really said two words to her because Qingyi insisted on leaving the palace that day, who knew that she was so short-tempered, and she escaped from the palace with King Yu, which gave the mountain bandits a chance, and this hurt King Yu...... Holy Lord, you punish the concubine, the concubine herself has no prestige in speaking, and when you and the queen are not there, you can't take care of the affairs of the queen's sister in the backyard, and the concubine is useless......"

As she spoke, her eyes were already red, and the pear blossoms brought rain to her pitiful, and anyone who saw it would feel a little distressed.

Mountain bandits? Hehe, concubine, you can really laugh. I sneered twice and didn't speak, because I knew that now was not the time to speak, but I wanted to see what kind of drama the concubine could perform.

The saint leaned down, helped the concubine Niangniang to stand up, and he instructed the large group of people around the palace: "General Ye and General Zhang stay, and the rest of the idle people, let's retreat first!" ”

The soldiers who came to meet slowly withdrew from the palace of King Yu, and several concubines who did not love right and wrong also retired first, and after a while, only the saint, the queen, the concubine, the prince and the two generals were left in the whole room.

I have been standing by the side of the prince, looking at the coffin of King Yu, really, I don't want to see anywhere else at the moment.

The eunuch brought a chair, and the saint sat on it, stared at me with a serious face for a long time, and said sharply: "Kneel!" ”

I was taken aback by his sudden annoyance, but I only shook a little and didn't kneel, "Why does the Holy One want me to kneel?" ”

"Apologize to King Yu!" He said coldly.

"It is estimated that I am not the only one who should kneel down for King Yu here!" I said confidently, staring at the culprit of the concubine Niangniang, the death of King Yu, I must get justice!

The concubine seemed to be frightened by my anger, and she hid behind the saint pitifully, "Qingyi, I really didn't know that your temper was so big, you can not take me seriously, but I can't let you out of the palace anyway, it's my duty!" However, you have to get involved with Brother Yuwang, who has always hurt you...... Yes, I'm at fault, I'm ......"

As she spoke, she began to cry again, and the Holy One could not bear it and shook her hand.

She is really good at acting, everything she does seems to be reasonable, and King Yu's death is all because of me?

"Guifei Niangniang, do you think it's strange to see me?" The prince stood beside me and asked softly.

"What do you mean by this?" The concubine pretended not to know anything.

"This man is not the crown prince." Ryosheng stood behind me and said softly.

His sudden voice made everyone's eyes focus on him, but Liang Sheng looked calm and did not have the slightest fear.

The saint looked cold and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Liang Sheng continued: "This is just a soul person, his seven spirits are all gone, but the soul is still in the body, so it looks like a living person. ”

Everyone was in an uproar, and even I was stunned, what happened? On the way back, the prince has been with us, he has been fine, now, what? What does Ryosheng mean by that?

I looked at Liang Sheng in surprise, but his expression was calm, not like he was lying.

"I used Gu magic to help him fix his soul, he is not a living person, just like it." Liang Sheng said, took out a wooden villain from his arms, he put the villain on the ground, the wooden villain seemed to have a consciousness, and walked up vividly!

Oh, my God! Everyone was stunned!

"You...... You...... You...... You put that thing away! The concubine exclaimed.

Hearing this, Liang Sheng gently put away the wooden figure and put it in his sleeve, and at this moment everyone in the hall was already shocked, including me.

Sheng Shang stood up, his eyes widened, and he looked at the prince, as if he wanted to find any evidence that could prove that the prince was not the soul man that the Gu master said.

"You, you say, is the prince still saved?" The saint pointed at Liang Sheng and asked anxiously.

Liang Sheng still said unhurriedly: "I don't know about this, under normal circumstances, there is only one possibility that the soul of a person will not disperse after death, he has gathered too much resentment, he is back to seek revenge!" ”

"Revenge? What revenge is he seeking? The saint's face turned pale.

"I don't know about this," Liang Sheng looked at the prince next to him, the prince stood there, raised his eyes and looked at the concubine, "I'm here to ask for the concubine's life, why?" Why are you killing me? ”

The concubine Niangniang was already trembling, her face was pale, she stretched out her hand to point at the prince, and stammered: "You...... You...... You don't have to act like that...... You...... You slandered me......"

"Then I'll go and kill Yucheng first." The prince's voice was still wooden.

"Don't!" The concubine Niangniang suddenly rushed out from behind the saint, "It's not that I want to kill you, it's the people of Southern Xinjiang who want to kill you, the people of Southern Xinjiang!" Holy Lord, quickly ask someone to arrest the prince! Lord Night, you can find a way......"

She is completely messy at the moment, and the queen mother is relatively quiet, compared with the queen, the situation of the concubine is indeed a little strange.

"Guifei Niangniang, how do you know that the people of southern Xinjiang want to kill the prince?" General Night asked rhetorically.

At this moment, the prince had already started gently, moving towards the concubine Niangniang step by step, the concubine's face was pale, and she retreated step by step.

"Don't come here! Don't come here! Don't come here! The concubine was already close to collapsing, "I didn't mean to!" I was also forced to be helpless! ”

As soon as she said this, the prince's footsteps immediately stopped, and everyone's eyes looked at the concubine again!

Could it be that the assassination of the crown prince was really her idea?

The saint looked at the strange prince, and then looked at the frightened concubine, everything was so weird and incomprehensible at the moment, making it difficult for normal people to make a judgment, the emperor and the queen looked at each other many times, and there seemed to be no definite conclusion.

The queen mother looked at the concubine who collapsed on the ground and asked, "So, you really planted a killer next to the prince to kill the prince?" ”

"Sister Queen...... Please, arrest the ghost prince first...... Arrest him first...... "The concubine is already crying.

At this moment, the pregnant concubine was calmer than her, the concubine bit her lip, stared at the man in front of her with big eyes who didn't know if it was a person or a ghost, that was her lover, the person she was thinking about.

I once promised to help her rescue the prince, but now, this is the situation, and I am also very confused!
