Chapter 29: Suspicions
Although there is a difference between demons, but it is only mortals and demon clans, if people with cultivation and demon clans love each other, except for some guardians, no one in the cultivation world will think of breaking up or saying bad things behind their backs, after all, they have pets.
"Your Majesty Emperor Xia, since she no longer has the memory of the demon clan, it is okay for the demons to fall in love with each other, not to mention the relationship for so many years." But it was Huo Lexuan who rarely spoke long, probably because he couldn't bear to see the relationship between Emperor Xia and Zhaoyi break down.
Emperor Xia was silent.
Xia Guifan explained: "Xuan'er, you are still not mature enough, she would rather lose the memory of the demon clan than enter the harem, I am afraid that there is a huge conspiracy, and the demon clan may have a way to awaken her memory, and then it will be troublesome, no matter what, Emperor Xia has left a mustard in his heart, and he no longer favors Sheng Zhaoyi." ”
"Oh, by the way, I haven't read the secret letter, I'll see." The atmosphere was solemn again, Xia Guifan changed the topic, not to mention that there were still doubts about this matter, and it was not ruled out that someone quietly put these two things in her palace to blame her.
The approximate content of the secret letter is that the upper echelons of the demon clan asked Sheng Zhaoyi to break into the palace, secretly use power to lead the demon clan into the human realm, and secretly control Great Xia.
The secret letter is also stamped with the seal of the demon clan, the spirit snake and the demon country, Xia Guifan doesn't feel like the breath is fake, the seal does reveal a demon king's breath, and there is a trace of the country's luck inside.
The evidence is so complete, and there is still a suspicion, that is, Sheng Zhaoyi has not been to Yongle Palace and Forget Worry Palace, which can also be interpreted as her kind of visit.
At this time, Sheng Zhaoyi came to her senses, looking at Xia Guifan and the two looking at her with a pensive face, Emperor Xia's face was full of anger, his eyes were sharp, and he exuded the majesty of the Son of Heaven pressing on her, and she was about to lose her breath.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong? Is the concubine innocent? Obviously feeling that something was wrong, Sheng Zhaoyi hurriedly asked.
"Humph!" Emperor Xia didn't reply to her, but said to Xia Guifan and the two guards and eunuchs outside the door: "I guess you have also seen it, the evidence is conclusive, come here, put this demon woman in prison, ask and behead her after three days, send someone to thoroughly investigate the imperial capital and palace, arrest her comrades, and ask Xuanqingzong to help determine the trace, so that there will be no more half of the demon clan inside and outside the imperial city." ”
Two guards grabbed Sheng Zhaoyi and dragged her out of the imperial study. She shouted: "Your Majesty, the concubine is wronged." Seeing that His Majesty didn't react again, he said to Xia Guifan and the others: "Two masters, concubines are innocent, why are they like this, slandering me." ”
Xia Guifan was silent on the surface, but he said: "Under the Dafa of Ecstasy, your answer is no problem, but unfortunately, conclusive evidence was found in your palace......
"The concubine doesn't remember anything that can stain my innocence, so I bother the two masters to check it again, and return my innocence, I must be grateful!"
"There are still some mysteries about this matter, and I will find out. Division...... Brother, let's check again! Huo Lexuan stepped in to transmit the sound, and there was pleading in her eyes after speaking.
Xia Guifan bowed his head silently, he also felt that there was something strange, everything was too coincidental, he just asked Emperor Xia to call Zhaoyi for questioning, and soon he searched for the finalized evidence, and these two pieces of evidence are paper evidence and can be destroyed, why does she still keep it?
And outside of the questioning, she said that she is not a demon clan, if the Heavenly Demon Transformation Dafa has made her lose the memory of the demon clan, but without the memory of the demon clan, she will only think that she is a person, how to do things for the demon clan, can that secret letter inspire her to think of the identity of the demon clan, and she hasn't seen it yet?
If you haven't seen it yet, it makes sense why she said she hadn't been in contact with the demon clan.
And another guard half-knelt and clenched his fists and said, "There is no more half of the demon clan...... Your Majesty, can you catch a demon pet that has been raised? ”
"Those who have no owner and those who are not registered can be arrested."
Seeing that Sheng Zhaoyi was about to be dragged out, Xia Guifan blurted out: "Wait!" I have something to verify, and I would like to leave someone for a moment. ”
Emperor Xia frowned: "I'm upset, I don't want to see this demon woman again, you should do it as soon as possible." ”
"No need to delay." Xia Guifan took the secret letter and the "Heavenly Demon Transformation Dafa" to Sheng Zhaoyi: "You read it again." ”
"This ...... There must be someone who wants to murder the concubine, the concubine is not a person incarnated by the demon clan, and she has not communicated with the demon clan, please Your Majesty and the two masters to make my decision. As she spoke, she knelt on the ground
Xia Guifan used the Ecstasy Dafa again, and after asking about it, she still believed that she was a human and had no dealings with the demon clan.
That's really weird, the evidence points to her, and she asks with the Dafa of Ecstasy, but it's all innocent.
Xia Guifan: "This matter is still inconclusive, Your Majesty Emperor Xia, you can allow a few more days to investigate, should you ...... after these three days?"
Emperor Xia's eyes were cold: "I only give seven days, and after seven days, I would rather kill the wrong one than let it go." ”
Xia Guifan pursed his lips, it was you who asked Xuanqing Sect to investigate this matter thoroughly, maybe now there is seemingly conclusive evidence, in your opinion, the truth is already the truth, but for me, the truth has not been ascertained, so I am in a hurry to kill, sure enough, the companion is like a tiger, my emperor's nephew is still a little anxious, I don't know if it is a faint monarch or a tyrant.
"I know what you're thinking, kings are suspicious, but the longer the time drags on, the deeper the demon clan penetrates, and I just strangle all the people who are really suspicious, if they have been killed, it doesn't matter who the real demon is, and after seven days, even if I kill this demon woman, I don't think it's over, and if the two find out the truth within seven days, it's not her fault, I will give her a Danshu iron coupon, and add her to the list of concubines, and I hope the two of you will bear more."
Ruthlessness is the most emperor's family, and this sentence is not wrong at all.
Xia Guifan no longer tried to persuade him, and could only try to find out the truth within these seven days. But no matter whether it is found out later or not, Sheng Zhaoyi's seven-day life will not be easy.
"I'm tired." Emperor Xia touched his eyebrows and said, everyone understood, and they all retreated.
And on the night that Sheng Zhaoyi was imprisoned, someone robbed the prison, and there was a strong demonic aura left at the scene, this time there was no hidden aura, which was obviously so obvious that people in the Qi Gathering Realm could see it, which further confirmed her crime.
The robbers, or demons, did not succeed and fled outside the palace, and the demonic spirit spread to the imperial capital, and finally disappeared in a certain street.
The next day, Xia Guifan and Huo Lexuan naturally heard about it, which is why they left the palace and returned to the capital, it was also at the Hejiang Inn, according to the news, the demon who robbed the prison disappeared on this street at that time.
Of course, before coming, Xia Guifan also investigated the situation in the prison, and came up with a clue that the demonic aura in the prison was similar to the demonic aura remaining in the palace, and Sheng Zhaoyi was discovered by the patrol prison guards without talking to the robbers.
