Inside the Daming Palace.

The hundred officials raised their heads one after another, and the roof tiles above their heads seemed to be indestructible, and they let out bursts of wails.

The officials were dumbfounded, their faces even more ugly than the sky outside the window.

The song and dance also stopped, and the dancing girls shrank aside and secretly looked at the emperor of the Northern Han Dynasty who was sitting on the throne.

Emperor Han had a cold and calm face, his five fingers clasped the handrail, and he remembered the strange text - Liu's heroic soul, holding grievances, within three days, ice and snow will fall.

Ridiculous, ridiculous!

Outside the hall, the Praetorian Guards stationed nearby retreated into the corridor one after another, and the palace people who couldn't dodge were hit by hailstones, and some people were severely injured by the falling tiles.

The magnificent palace became a mess in an instant.

In the face of such natural disasters, officials privately exchanged heads and talked about the strange things that had happened in recent days:

"I heard that the case of the Liu family being tried in Dali Temple, overnight, the charred corpse turned into dry bones, and the dry bones were scarred, as if they had been abused by something, and they died miserably, maybe there were resentful spirits."

"Didn't you kill yourself out of fear of sin?"

Everyone subconsciously looked at Dali Siqing, Lord Fang.

At this moment, there was a deafening loud bang overhead.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of tiles fell in the air, and the hall was broken through a gap, and the cold wind whistled in, and the sound of the wind sounded terrible, just like the cry of a baby.

In the gap, the hail kept smashing.

The hall was suddenly in chaos, and suddenly, a desk was hit by hailstones, and there was another loud bang, and the sawdust shattered to the ground.

When the dust settled, I saw that among the debris was a hailstone the size of a horse's head, which was very infiltrating to look at.

"Quick, fast escort!"

The armored Yulin Guard poured into the hall and protected Emperor Han in it, dozens of pairs of eyes staring at the top of his head until a slight crack sounded in his ears.

The voice was inaudible, but the ears and eyes of those who practiced martial arts were clear.

They all looked at the source of the crack, and at the end of their eyes, it was a pitch-gold dragon.

Emperor Han turned his eyes to look.

The crack cracked open from the stone pillar, and in an instant, it snaked down through the entire dragon's claw, as if it had been slashed from the middle, and the dragon's claw peeled off from the stone pillar and fell straight to the ground.

The dragon lost its claws, and the sky was furious!

The thunder hail came and went quickly, but the effort of half a pillar of incense was completely eliminated, leaving the ground full of messes.

The officials were secretly glad that there was no danger this time, and next, they would be able to live for the rest of their lives.

Only Emperor Han still had a cold face, looked at the officials below, and shouted: "Si Tianjian!" ”

Lord Cao, the superintendent of the heavens, had a numb scalp, stood up against the coercion, and bowed down in the main hall: "This natural disaster is a dereliction of duty by the ministers, and the ministers are ......."

He bowed down and bowed again, but listened to the Han Emperor who was sitting on the top of him reprimand: "What's the use of me keeping you!" ”

"Please forgive your majesty!" Lord Cao shook his head to the ground, and was frightened by this formation.

"Your Majesty, please stop your anger." The civil and military officials bowed down in unison.

"Saint-" Yu Shi Zhongcheng said at the right time, "natural calamity, fortunately today is Chinese New Year's Eve, according to the custom, the people are staying at home to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, the casualties should not be large, and I hope that the saint can read the prison for the sake of the great Han and open the net." ”

"I beg Your Majesty to open the net!" Hundreds of officials say goodbye.

Emperor Han looked at the officials pleading below, and stood with his hands in his hands: "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and Cao Jian is demoted to the main book, but there are complaints. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Han looked at the lacquered gold dragon: "Dali Temple, Criminal Department Shangshu!" ”

Dali Siqing and the Criminal Department Shangshu were immediately listed.

"I heard that the Liu family's case was unjust, so that Tianwei was furious." Emperor Han looked at Dali Siqing, "Lord Fang has found any suspicions when he tried this case?" ”

"It's really suspicious." Dali Siqing truthfully reported, "Liu Hanquan was seriously injured in front of him, and there were many scars on his sternum and leg bones, so he did not commit suicide in fear of crime. ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar.

Emperor Han also fell into a long silence.

The Liu family has always been loyal to the country and has won his trust, but collusion with the Zhou army does not seem to be a fraud.

Could it be that there is really something hidden in this?

"From now on, Dali Siqing, the Criminal Department Shangshu and the Imperial History Zhongcheng will retry this case." After careful consideration, Emperor Han opened Chrysostom again, "At this time next year, I will see the closing file." ”

The three ministers stepped forward: "Minister, command!" ”

Jinyang Bazaar.

The vendors who set up the stalls sighed again and again, today's hailstorm has smashed them with no money, and once returned to the poverty line, which is really unfavorable.

After looking at the sky, and going back to catch up with a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the vendors simply began to close their stalls.

Until outside the bazaar, a team of people rushed in, which was the forbidden army in the city.

The leading soldier ran to the sign and covered the original wanted notice with a letter.

"Official, who has committed the crime again?"

The soldier jumped on horseback, looked down at the people gathered around, and said loudly: "The imperial court has ordered a retrial of the Liu family's treason!" ”

It was the first time that the people who had lived in Kyoto for a long time had a case retried, but anyone involved in treason would rather kill a thousand by mistake.

It seems that this holy will is also like the sky in the capital, and it will change when it is said.

After the crowd, Shen Yanchu stood tall and tall, and his eyes showed relief: "You would have thought that there would be hail today, so you performed such a play, but the Liu family can be regarded as saving." ”

Liu Ruyan was still melancholy: "It's too early to say this, Emperor Han only gave one year to solve the case, and those people in the Criminal Department may not be able to count on it." ”

"So you're going to hunt down the killer yourself?"

Liu Ruyan thought for a moment, but gave him a military gesture.

"What do you mean?"

"Break and then stand, and turn it into steel." She said, "This murderer who is hiding behind the scenes, I will arrest him." ”

"Now that you've made up your mind, do you know where to find the real culprit?"

She shook her head: "There are not many clues at the moment, I only know that the other party is a white barbarian." ”

White barbarian?

Shen Yanchu lowered his eyes, thoughtful.

Several people returned to the inn again.

Tonight is Chinese New Year's Eve, and there is no rush to get out of the city.

Bai Zhi prepared a lot of good wine and good dishes in the store, which was used as a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in the evening, the difference is that they are all alone, and the only ones who can hope for warmth are each other.

A glass of sake went down, and the stomach began to warm up, Liu Ruyan drank to herself, and somehow, her eyes couldn't help but pantothenic acid.

She tilted her face up and looked out the window at the night.

At this time, there are usually 32 dishes on the table, and everyone huddles in the hall, pushing cups and changing lamps, and listening to the sound of firecrackers outside the house......

Time has passed, and it is still those dishes, those wines, and the friends who used to accompany each other day and night are nowhere to be seen.

There was a flash of light in his eyes, and gorgeous fireworks bloomed outside the window, which were brilliant to the extreme, but they were also fleeting.

Fireworks are easy to cold, and personnel are easy to separate.

She picked up the wine in the cup, walked to the window, turned the cup in her hand upside down, and the gurgling sake fell to the ground into sorrow: "The soldiers of the Liu family will not die in vain." ”

Shen Yanchu and Bai Zhi invariably turned their eyes and looked at her by the window: Dangerous along the way, I will protect you.
