Chapter 133: Protecting the Calf

There was a majesty in his voice that could not be ignored, and his handsome face was like ice at the moment, which made people feel cold in their hearts.

The officials who suspected Ling Ling were startled by Huo Yun who suddenly stood up to protect the calf, and reluctantly refuted Ling Ling. And the official, who was still red-faced before, turned a little pale at the moment, and staggered back to his previous position.

Huo Yun looked coldly at the group of officials who were busy sitting on Ling Ling's charges, and said coldly,

"Ling Ling is the young master of my Longyun Sect, the people of Longyun Sect will never take someone else's life because of a trivial matter, everything needs to be verified. If you wait for such a thoughtless way to tell the truth, Huo will definitely accompany you to the end! ”

The words landed, and he returned to his position, facing everyone with a dark face.

The commentator guards were a little hesitant because of Huo Yun's appearance. He turned his eyes to Bai Yixiu for help, Bai Yixiu's eyes turned slightly, looked at Ling Ling, and nodded to the guard.

"City Lord Ling, before and after Prime Minister Shangguan was killed, I don't know where you were? Can anyone prove it? ”

Ling Ling slurred,

"I ...... In the hunting grounds,"

Then he looked hesitantly at Murong Xue, who was calmly watching the play beside Bai Yixiu,

"No one...... Seen me. After speaking, he hurriedly withdrew his eyes.

She did it so obviously, no matter how stupid a person was, she understood that Ling Ling Fang should have wanted to mention Murong Xue, but she didn't say it when the words came to her lips.

Murong Xue, who had just taken off her veil, looked confused and received everyone's puzzled gaze. She shook her head at Bai Yixiu without knowing it, she didn't understand why Ling Ling would look at her at this time and say that.

"Since no one has ever seen City Lord Ling, how can City Lord Ling convince us that what you say is true?" The guard continued.

"This ......"

"If you can't prove it, then City Lord Ling, you still can't get rid of the suspicion of killing Shangguan Prime Minister."

The guard's words made Ling Ling look even more entangled, she frowned and bit her lip, only to see her slowly raise her hand, her delicate and slender fingers pointing straight at Murong Xue,

"At that time, Xue Guifei saw me."

Everyone's eyes instantly shifted from Ling Ling to Murong Xue. The fair-skinned and soft little face was full of surprise, her eyes widened and she shook her head gently, her voice was cold,

"Hongu has never seen her, and has never even entered the hunting grounds."

Ling Ling lowered his eyes and smiled helplessly, looking a little helpless and pitiful,

"That's right," she sighed softly, "how could Xue Guifei have ever been to the hunting grounds?" Everything was my bad luck to come across these things. ”

"Please ask City Lord Ling to speak clearly, don't be vague and suspicious."

A sense of irritability gradually rose in Murong Xue's heart, she hadn't seen her since she went out the night before yesterday, she had been very confused for a day and a half, she fell into a coma for some reason, and after waking up, she found herself in a small room more than a mile away from the tent area!

And when she returned, she asked the guards guarding outside her tent if anything unusual had happened, but the guards didn't know anything!

"Niangniang, Ling Ling naturally didn't dare to talk nonsense in front of the emperor, but there was no one around when you and I met, as long as Niangniang said that she hadn't seen me, then no matter how much I said, I couldn't confirm it."

Ling Ling's face was harmless, pitiful, and her slightly pale little face made her look a little distressed.

Murong Xue was even more angry, she tried her best to keep herself awake, her face was full of innocence, but her eyes were like blades, she looked at Ling Ling, and said aggrievedly,

"City Lord Ling, this palace neither recruited you nor provoked you, why are you spewing blood like this?"

"At the dinner the day before, Ling Ling borrowed Niangniang's palace maid for use, but she didn't expect Niangniang to send someone to assassinate me, but the assassination failed, and Niangniang went to the hunting ground yesterday to find me and tried to shut me up. Could it be that this is what the mother said that she did not provoke? ”

Ling Ling's words made everyone present gasp, and the voices of discussion came one after another, big or small, into Murong Xue's ears, she was shocked, thinking that Yun Wan's disappearance must be inseparable from Ling Ling, her hand hidden in her sleeve tightened, just asked Yun Wan to check a little entourage, I didn't expect her to be so useless!

"Why did the Ling City Lord say this, the former Japanese Palace had an accidental allergy, and after returning to the camp, he took the medicine and rested, and he never sent someone to assassinate you as you said!"

Murong Xue retorted.

"Really?" Ling Ling sneered. "Niangniang is the emperor's favorite concubine, a high and powerful position, I didn't want to mention this matter at this time, for fear of disturbing the emperor's autumn hunting Yaxing, but I didn't expect the unexpected death of Shangguan Prime Minister, everyone pointed all the signs of suspicion at me, in order to prove my innocence, Ling Ling had to offend the concubine Niangniang."

She changed her previous hesitant attitude, straightened up, and looked determined,

"Dare to ask Niangniang's personal palace maid Yunwan, where is she now?"

Murong Xue's eyes flashed slightly, "This palace may not have seen her for a long time, and said that someone was sent to look for her!" ”

"There's no need to look for it," the corners of her naturally raised lips were slightly hooked, "After the banquet of the palace maid Yun the night before, she quietly infiltrated my tent, took advantage of my bathing and neglected her precautions, and waited for an opportunity to assassinate me, but fortunately I noticed it in time, so I was not murdered." Now Yunwan is in the big cabinet behind the bed in my tent, and the emperor can send someone to bring her over. ”

"Someone . . . Go to the camp of the city lord of Ling to bring people. ”

Bai Yixiu motioned to the guards, with a faint smile on his elegant and jade-like face, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking at the moment.

Although Murong Xue was a little uneasy in her heart, she was not worried about how much damage Yun Wan's matter would cause to her, after all, she didn't let Yun Wan assassinate Ling Ling, and there was evidence written by her on the rice paper in her tent! Moreover, Yun Wan's parents are in her hands, and Yun Wan has no reason to drag her into the water.

Thinking of this, she calmed her heart, and her fair and delicate face returned to a noble and elegant expression.

Yun Wan, who was dressed in black, was brought into the tent by the guards, her hands were tied, and under her somewhat messy hair were divine eyes and a ruddy complexion.

Ling Ling glanced at Jinrong, who was blocked by glory behind Huo Yun, this girl took good care of Yun Wan!

Yun Wan knelt beside Ling Ling, her eyes were clear, without the slightest fear.

"Palace maid Yunwan, why did you appear in the camp of the Ling City Lord?"

Bai Yixiu asked coldly. The clear and melodious voice exudes a majesty that cannot be ignored.

"Back to the emperor, after the dinner the day before yesterday, Niangniang thought that she would be allergic because the entourage next to Lord Ling was secretly making trouble, so she ordered the slave maid to go and check." Yun Wan replied lightly.

"What's the matter with assassinating City Lord Ling?" Bai Yixiu continued to ask.

"After the slave sneaked into the main tent of Lingcheng, she found that she was bathing, and remembered what Niangniang had said to the slave before, so she moved."

Bai Yixiu's eyes narrowed slightly, "What did Xue Guifei say to you?" ”

Yun Wan raised her eyes to look at Murong Xue, who had a somewhat complicated expression, and slowly spoke,

"Niangniang said that if there is a chance, it will cut off the life of the Ling City Lord."

"Cloud Night!" Murong Xue let out a low roar, a layer of anger appeared on her face, "You think clearly, when did this palace say this?" ”

Yun Wan lowered his head and was silent.

Murong Xue's heart burned even more angrily, she looked at Yun Wan's eyes with murderous intent, and in the blink of an eye, she grabbed Bai Yixiu's arm with an innocent face, and argued,

"The emperor clearly investigated, the concubine couldn't speak that night due to allergies, and she kept writing to convey her thoughts, and the concubine swore to heaven that she had never given such an order."
