Sheng Zhiyao stared at him and pondered: "The place where we parked the carriage is so deserted, how can anyone still pass by? And there's more than one."

"Bu Xing also said the same, but after observing for a few days, they didn't act rashly, until yesterday when the prince took Bu Xing and Shi Wu to leave first, they still didn't make any movement." Merle explained carefully. :

"Oh?" Sheng Zhiyao bowed his head slightly, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed, "Then do you think they are waiting for someone?"

"Wait for someone? Waiting for whom?"

"Do you think it could be us?" Sheng Zhiyao guessed.

Mei'er's eyes widened in surprise: "This ...... Probably not, right?"

"I'm just guessing, it's debatable whether it's right or not, but we have to be vigilant, after all, we don't know if these people are friends or foes."

"Yes, Miss, I see."

"Also, is Gong Jie still near the carriage?" Sheng Zhiyao suddenly thought of this stubble and hurriedly asked.

Meier nodded.

"Tell him to prepare, and we'll leave for Beijing today."

"Yes!"

After Sheng Zhiyao finished speaking, he lay back on the bed and closed his eyes: "I'm going to sleep for a while, remember to call me later."

At three o'clock in the morning, Sheng Zhiyao was woken up by the noisy people outside, opened her hazy sleepy eyes, she looked at the top of the tent in confusion for a moment, turned over and lay back on the bed, and asked lazily, "What happened?"

"Miss, some of the clansmen want to see you."

Sheng Zhiyao sighed, slowly got up from the bed, put on his clothes and got up, and just after freshening up, he saw another commotion outside.

"Miss, I'll go out and have a look." Mei'er went out to investigate the situation, and came back after a while to report, "Miss, there are many clansmen gathered outside in the main hall."

"What? Didn't these people get enough yesterday?" Sheng Zhiyao frowned beautifully, and a sharp glint crossed her eyes.

Mei'er pursed her lips and lowered her head.

"Let's go, let's go see the excitement." Sheng Zhiyao rolled up his cuffs and walked towards the main hall with leisurely steps.

The hall was full of people, and as soon as Sheng Zhiyao walked to the door of the hall, he heard them angrily questioning Nangong Yu.

"Nangong Yu, we believe in you so much, but you unite with others to harm us, what kind of heart do you have?"

"It's just that you don't deserve to be a witch."

Listening to everyone's gossip and insults, Sheng Zhiyao's eyelids jumped: "Which one is this singing?"

"I don't know, my brothers are not here, this Nangong girl is surrounded by them." Mei'er said in a low voice.

Sheng Zhiyao raised her eyebrows, bypassed the people blocking the entrance of the hall, and walked in: "What's the matter, what are you doing here!"

"Prince, you're here." Seeing Sheng Zhiyao, Nangong Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull her, "These people don't say that I betrayed the Wu clan, but also say ......."

Sheng Zhiyao patted her hand and signaled her to be calm.

Sweeping the people in the hall, Sheng Zhiyao asked casually, "Hey, I didn't see you yesterday, are you from the Wu clan?"

"Yes, we are all members of the Wu Clan, and we have come here today to ask for our sins."

"What sin do you ask?" Sheng Zhiyao glanced at them lightly.

"Yesterday, you poisoned and murdered the elders and clansmen of the Wu Clan, how should this account be settled?"

"Witch Elder?" Sheng Zhiyao sneered, his eyes fell on the man who was talking on the side, and sneered, "Do you think he is worth my risk?"

When the man heard this, he immediately retorted, "Nonsense, it's obvious that you poisoned us and framed us."

"Really? You didn't even know I was poisoned, it seems that some people really like to reverse right and wrong! And you are a stupid donkey, you believe what others say, do you have a little brain? I poisoned them, so why didn't those people die?"

The man's face turned red: "Because you didn't poison much, and it was scattered everywhere, so those people survived."

Sheng Zhiyao couldn't bear it

Forbidden: "Heh, you deserve to be used by others, it's not that you don't have a lot of poison, it's me who gives you an antidote."

The man was annoyed: "Then you just admit that you poisoned!"

"That's right! I never said I didn't admit it, it's just that I don't care to lie, especially since I was going to kill those elders in the first place." Sheng Zhiyao looked at the man with a smile after speaking.

Sure enough, as soon as her words fell, the man's whole face turned the color of pig liver, and he couldn't spit out a complete sentence when he pointed at her for a long time.

"You ......"

"What are you? I don't know if I've been taken advantage of!" Sheng Zhiyao glanced at him with disdain, and turned to look at the others, "Since they are all here, let's make it clear!"

Sheng Zhiyao's attitude made everyone stunned slightly, and then they all showed angry expressions.

"Yesterday, it was Elder Mu and the foreigners who conspired to kill us, so we had to sprinkle the poisonous powder, this poisonous powder is also unique to the Wu Clan, it is not fatal but the whole body is weak and weak, we gave the antidote afterwards, and only arrested the offending elder, and the rest of the people were all sent home, you are so eager to come to the door to slander us, what kind of heart is it?" Sheng Zhiyao asked word by word.

"What do you mean by that, that I framed you?"

"Isn't it? You didn't come to the Witch Temple yesterday, but you clearly know what happened in the Witch Temple, so there is only one possibility, the mastermind behind the scenes told you, maybe you have already colluded to frame us."

"It's just nonsense, the Wu people have always been the most well-behaved, how could they collude with outsiders to murder their clansmen?"

Sheng Zhiyao snorted coldly: "If I remember correctly, those black-clothed people were still in the dungeon yesterday, if you don't bring them to us to confront, or do you want to protect them."

"You ......"

"That's enough, I don't care about you." Sheng Zhiyao raised her tone and stared at him mockingly.

was choked by Sheng Zhiyao like this, and the man was immediately speechless.

At this time, there was a commotion in the crowd.

"Then you are really the descendants of the Witch Emperor?"

Sheng Zhiyao looked at the source of the sound, and saw a young man walking in outside the hall, the man was dressed in a white robe, his figure was straight, his appearance was as warm as jade, and his demeanor revealed the elegant temperament of a noble son.

This person's name is Nangong Lin, the eldest son of the Nangong family, and the sacrifice of the Wu clan, it is said that he is a strange person who is good at divination.

"Big brother." Nangong Yu hurriedly greeted him, "You're finally out of the customs."

"Ah Yu, are they really the same as the Witch Emperor?" Nangong Lin ignored Nangong Yu, but moved his gaze to Sheng Zhiyao.

Nangong Yu nodded, and replied respectfully, "Exactly, they are indeed the Witch Emperor's lineage, and they have been verified on the jade yesterday."

Hearing Nangong Yu's affirmative answer, everyone's eyes couldn't help but light up.
