Since the little palace maid found Wushisan, she attacked Shen Qianxue for no reason just now, presumably because she became delirious after taking Wushisan and suddenly went crazy.

In this way, Shen Qianmo's suspicion of demon magic will naturally be cleared.

So, did you fail in this trick? Is this hairpin for nothing? Shen Qianxue saw that Shen Qianmo had solved the game she had designed for so long so easily, and she was really unwilling in her heart, but even the emperor seemed to protect her, not to mention King Xuan, she was simply protected without leaking, which really made her envious, jealous and hateful.

Seeing that Shen Qianmo was easily out of trouble, and seeing that Meng Yuanheng took care of her in every way, his heart seemed to have knocked over the five-flavor bottle, which was sour and astringent, and he said to Emperor Mingde in a hurry: "Your Majesty, I heard what Mrs. Shizi said just now, King Xuan had met assassins on the way back to Beijing, and when interrogating the assassins, Miss Shen only glanced at those assassins a few times, and the assassin knew everything and confessed everything to her. Isn't this sorcery? ”

Meng Tianluo heard the words of the county lord of Anping, and there was a moment of panic on his face. The killer of the Shadowless Gate is not easy to hire, and it took a lot of financial resources and energy to assassinate him last time, but who knew that he was easily extricated by Meng Yuanheng, a cripple.

It's just that Meng Yuanheng hasn't seen any movement these days, he originally thought that this matter was unaware, but now it sounds like those assassins have confessed, so Meng Yuanheng will find out about himself sooner or later.

It seems that his plan needs to be stepped up.

Emperor Mingde was skeptical. "How can there be such a thing in the world? Anping, you don't have to hearsay. ”

Shen Qianxue climbed forward and desperately echoed: "Your Majesty, what the county lord of Anping said is true, there is indeed such a thing, and the concubine is willing to guarantee with her life." ”

After a pause, she felt that her life seemed to be not enough, she suddenly blessed her heart, glanced at Gonggong Li beside Emperor Mingde, and said eagerly: "If the emperor doesn't believe it, you can ask Gonggong Li." The last time he returned to Beijing, Gonggong Li walked with King Xuan all the way, and he must have witnessed it with his own eyes. ”

Seeing what Shen Qianxue said, Emperor Mingde turned his head to look at Gonggong Li and asked, "Li Yuan, is there such a thing?" ”

Gonggong Li fell to his knees with a thud, and he really wished that a crack suddenly appeared on the ground, so that he could get into it and not have to face such an embarrassing situation again.

King Xuan's warning was still in his ears, but he couldn't afford the crime of bullying the king. This...... What should he do?

Gonggong Li's forehead was sweating, trembling all over, he had long lost his usual sharp teeth, and his words were not good.

"Back to the emperor, indeed...... It was true that no matter how severely the assassins tortured them that day, they would not say who had instigated them, but Princess Xuan only glanced at the assassin a few times, and the assassin told the truth. ”

After speaking, he glanced at Meng Yuanheng, whose face was pale, out of the corner of his eye, and instantly lowered his head between his legs, and his whole body trembled.

King Xuan is not easy to mess with.

When everyone heard what Shen Qianxue said just now, they didn't believe it. It's just that I've heard that the two sisters have always been at odds, so naturally they won't say anything good. But now even Gonggong Li has confirmed it, so this is true!

There was an exclamation of surprise around them, and even Ning Wu and Fu Yuechan's faces were faintly flashing with fear.

Just by a few glances she will be controlled by her, what kind of terrible magic is this?

This girl of the Shen family is so evil, and she still has a good eye for her. Emperor Mingde's face was a little unbearable for a while, and he angrily asked Shen Qianmo: "Shen family girl, what do you have to say?" ”

Shen Qianmo's face was as usual, and she knelt down to Emperor Mingde calmly, and said in a steady tone: "Back to the emperor, as Gonggong Li just said, the assassin had a very hard mouth that day, and the courtiers were worried about the safety of King Xuan, so they had to use the technique of Mingzhao. This technique of illumination is one of the pupil techniques, and it is a means of interrogating prisoners. This technique has been its own since ancient times, and it is not a demon art, and the emperor is also invited to learn from it. ”

This is the countermeasure that Meng Yuanheng has prepared for her since the last interrogation of the assassin incident, just in case. I didn't expect it to come in handy so quickly.

Hitomi? Although Emperor Mingde had never heard of it, but when he heard Shen Qianmo say this, if he denied it, it seemed that he was very uninformed, so he pretended to be deep and said: "Even if this pupil technique has existed since ancient times, how can you, a young lady who has lived in the boudoir for a long time, learn this technique?" ”

Shen Qianmo had expected this question, and still responded unhurriedly. "There are many ancient books in Bishan Academy, and the last time the courtiers went to Suzhou to celebrate their grandfather's birthday, they happened to find an ancient book in the academy, which happened to contain this technique. The courtiers were curious, so they learned some fur according to the ancient books. ”

With a hundred years of history of Bishan Academy, it is naturally normal to have one or two ancient books, and this girl from the Shen family is smart and beautiful, and it is reasonable to be able to learn this strange art.

For the sake of Meng Yuanheng's face, Emperor Mingde was about to calm things down and turn big things into small ones, but he was interrupted by a cold snort from Princess Zhaoren.

"Your Majesty, this eldest lady of the Shen family is a good woman who is not a good woman, but she is interested in these strange arts, crooked and evil ways, this palace heard that she also likes to deal with corpses, and now she is studying this kind of strange magic, and I don't know what the intention is. Dasheng Dynasty is the most taboo thing to pretend to be a god and a ghost, this so-called pupil technique is so weird, the palace is already unstable, if this matter is not investigated, how can I rest assured? ”

This...... Emperor Mingde was also in trouble. He can not listen to anyone's words, but he has never dared to disobey the words of his imperial sister.

Emperor Mingde's biological mother died early since he was a child, and he has been struggling in the open and secret struggle of the princes, walking on thin ice, only this imperial sister takes care of herself and supports her. Speaking of which, he was able to sit on this throne, partly because of the merits of this imperial sister.

Shen Qianxue, who had been kneeling on the ground, also interjected at the right time: "Your Majesty, the concubine can prove that the concubine's sister has been not normal since she was hit by the fire that day, and she always does things that she usually doesn't know at all, and even her temperament is very different from before. ”

Shen Qianmo really obeyed Shen Qianxue's imagination, and even thought of the possession of evil spirits, which made up her mind to position herself as a demon girl.

However, when Shen Qianxue said this, everyone felt that it made some sense. Originally, they thought that Shen Qianmo, as a young lady raised in the depths of the boudoir, knew those autopsy and autopsy techniques, which was a bit different from ordinary people, and now they saw that she knew these strange techniques that they had never heard of, and it was reasonable to explain them with evil spirits.

For a moment, everyone looked at her with even more horror.

Emperor Mingde is not stupid, he naturally knows that his imperial sister grabbed Shen Qianmo's pigtail and didn't let go, it must be because of last year's Qixi Festival, Meng Yuanheng mercilessly refused to marry Anping, which made her lose face. He glanced at Meng Yuanheng, whose face was getting more and more ugly, and then at Shen Qianmo, who was still light and breezy, muttered for a long time, and asked out loud: "According to the emperor's sister's wishes, how should this matter be handled?" ”

"Hmph, the meaning of this palace has been said very clearly just now, you are the emperor, naturally everything is subject to the emperor's discretion." Eldest Princess Zhaoren said in a cold voice.

She has always been used to being domineering, and seeing that she couldn't even take a little girl, she was already depressed in her heart, not to mention that this girl was still the future princess of King Xuan. Thinking of the humiliation she suffered last year, she was furious.

She didn't believe that with her identity and status, she wouldn't be able to solve a little girl. What about Xuan Wangfu, if it weren't for her daughter's deep affection for Meng Yuanheng, she would have shown Xuan Wangfu the color a long time ago.

Emperor Mingde heard the impatience and anger of the eldest princess Zhaoren, and in desperation, he had no choice but to follow her wishes and order Shen Qianmo to be taken to the heavenly prison for temporary detention, and then make a decision after verifying the pupil technique.

Hengzhu was only temporarily detained for a few days, which first eliminated the anger of the eldest princess Zhaoren, and the others could be discussed in the long run.

Emperor Mingde felt that he was benevolent and righteous to this second son, but Meng Yuanheng obviously did not appreciate his affection. Seeing that several eunuchs were about to step forward to set up Shen Qianmo again, he protected Shen Qianmo with a frosty face, and did not retreat half a step.

"As long as this king is here, no one will want to touch her in the slightest."

This is the rhythm of the clear resistance.

Some of the unmarried women present looked at Shen Qianmo with envy, and thought to themselves: This eldest lady of the Shen family is really lucky, if there is a man who can openly resist the decree and challenge the authority of the Son of Heaven in order to protect himself, even if he is a cripple, what does it matter.

The eyes of the county lord of Anping, which have always been cold, seem to be able to breathe fire at this moment. This woman, how can she let the cold-hearted and ruthless King Xuan do this? Where is he not as good as her, in terms of background, talent, and appearance, he doesn't lose to her, why does King Xuan not even look down on himself, but he has a soft spot for this woman?

"Presumptuous, King Xuan, are you going to openly rebel?" Meng Tianluo stood behind Emperor Mingde and accused him sternly.

Only he knows how much he wishes that Meng Yuanheng could really rebel, so that he can justifiably beat him to the bottom, and there will be no day to turn over.

"This king only wants her to be safe." In the face of Meng Tianluo's deliberate provocation, Meng Yuanheng's face did not change, but he grabbed Shen Qianmo's hand and stepped up a little force, as if announcing to everyone that in order to protect this woman, even if it was a rebellion, he would not hesitate.

When Emperor Mingde saw this, his heart sank, and his brows furrowed. This second child is so affectionate to the girl of the Shen family, looking at this posture, he really did the rebellion.

Meng Yuanheng doted on and maintained himself unprincipledly, and Shen Qianmo was of course moved in her heart. She also knows Meng Tianluo's fanning of the flames.

So, let her be the one who puts out the fire. As an emperor, of course, he doesn't want to see someone under him who will be angry at the crown, which is an invisible threat to his throne.

And she will never let Meng Yuanheng fall into such a dangerous situation, and she will never give those who are waiting to fall into the well a chance to hurt him.

She held Meng Yuanheng's hand back, wrote the word "peace of mind" on his slightly rough palm with her fingers, and then said indifferently to Emperor Mingde: "Your Majesty, the courtiers are willing to go to the prison, the pure ones are self-purifying, and the emperor will be able to return the innocence of the courtiers." ”
