Chapter 81 Interrogation

On Wanshou Mountain, Li Zilong walked up the mountain as if he had walked into his own garden.

Li Zilong was dressed in his dark robe, and his hands were shaking with dust. The eyes open and close, and they look at it for a long time.

At this time, it happened to be Zhu Jianshen to swim here, and when Zhu Jianshen stood aside and watched, he suddenly saw a Taoist priest on the mountain.

"Who is that?" Zhu Jianshen pointed to the top of the mountain and shouted.

Behind him, all the palace servants and guards looked up the mountain, and Wei She also squinted his eyes, and was flustered: Why is he here! Why not wear palace clothes!

Wei She secretly complained in his heart, and at this time, the guards had already rushed up the mountain to arrest Li Zilong.

Washer was about to stop him, but he didn't know what to say, and almost collapsed on the ground. My heart was already half cold: this time it's over!

From time to time, the guards escorted Li Zilong to Zhu Jianshen.

Zhu Jianshen looked at the Taoist priest in front of him carefully, and suddenly raised his eyebrows and asked, "Where are you from?" ”

Li Zilong raised his eyes to look at Zhu Jianshen, and found that Wei She behind him was waving his hand towards him, and his color was very serious.

"Poor Dao ......" Li Zilong said these two words, Wei She hurriedly shook his head gently, Li Zilong glanced at him a few times, but Zhu Jianshen looked back, and Wei She was stunned.

"What are you doing!" Zhu Jianshen asked Li Zilong again, "Answer my question!" ”

"Poor Dao is a Taoist priest on the top of Kunlun Mountain! Common name Li Zilong! Li Zilong didn't seem to put down the shelf at all when he saw Zhu Jianshen.

Zhu Jianshen saw that he was a Taoist priest but was so angry, and he was disgusted in his heart: This old Taoist is so arrogant!

"How did you get into the palace, do you know it's a capital offense!" Zhu saw a deep dragon's eyes and asked.

Li Zilong was not in a hurry, and Wei She was already half frightened to death.

"The poor road is not so far, how to say the word 'mixed'!" Li Zilong was safe.

Zhu Jianshen suddenly laughed: "You Fang! Do you know that this world is my world, and this land is my land! ”

"The emperor laughed! When I traveled to Siam, the extreme region north of the Kunlun Mountains, above the desert, and in the grassland, it was still the territory of the Mongols...... How does the emperor say that it is your world! ”

Zhu Jianshen's pupils shrank slightly: "What a Taoist priest with sharp teeth!" ”

"The emperor has won the award!" Li Zilong smiled brightly.

Wei She heard the two of them answer at this time, Li Zilong's words really angered Zhu Jianshen. Immediately remorseful and secretly complained.

"Even so! Then this palace is my territory, how can you explain it, a Taoist priest! ”

Although Zhu Jianshen was furious in his heart, he wanted to convince people with reason.

Li Zilong said: "Although this palace is said to be the emperor's, but I am born for the common people in the world, and the emperor should understand!" ”

"What do you say?"

"Recently, there are demon foxes in the capital, and the poor road should take it as its own responsibility to subdue demons and eliminate demons! After looking at this Wanshou Mountain dragon qi gathering, it can help the poor Dao to cultivate immortal arts to get rid of that monster! ”

Li Zilong said that the head was the Tao, and the guards were secretly convinced.

Zhu Jianshen was furious when he heard the word "demon fox", how can this rumor in the capital be trusted!

"Demon fox, monster! I see you're a demon! Zhu Jianshen pointed at Li Zilong and shouted angrily, "I'm afraid that the demon fox rumors are also your trick to spread confusion among the people!" ”

Wei She saw that Zhu Jianshen was furious, and hurriedly knelt down and prayed: "The emperor is angry!" The emperor is angry, I think what this Taoist priest said has some truth! Besides, there were no demon foxes that broke into the palace that night......"

Zhu Jianshen squinted at Wei She: "You don't have to be deceived by this demon!" He turned to the guards and said, "Tie up this demon path to me!" Put yourself in the prison first, this demon is determined to plot against him! ”

Some of the guards also knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, what this Taoist priest said is not unreasonable. And tell him to get rid of the demon fox, it's not too late to kill him if he doesn't succeed! ”

Zhu Jianshen's eyes became fierce: "When do I need you to persuade me!" ”

The guards knew that Zhu Jianshen was already furious, and they were afraid that this anger would affect them, so they hurriedly arrested Li Zilong and escorted him to the prison.

In the meantime, Li Zilong's face did not change color, and he calmly faced it, and he looked at Wei She like an ant on a hot pot.

"I don't believe in this evil! Order someone to interrogate him strictly! Zhu Jianshen flicked his sleeves and left angrily.

Wei She sat down on the ground abruptly after Zhu Jianshen left, and muttered in a stunned look: "It's over, it's all over......"

Zhu Jianshen angrily pushed open the door of the hall and walked into the Wenhua Palace, sat on the dragon chair and scolded: "What a demon way!" It's just a matter of demagoguery, and it's still here to confuse the public! ”

Zhu Jianshen's chest fell together for a while before it eased down, and then he thought carefully about the matter of the demon fox in the capital, which made people panic, could it really be that this was really done by evil spirits......

Early the next morning, Zhu Jianshen came to the main hall early, and at this time, the ministers had already gathered in the hall to wait.

"Kneel!" The eunuch made a long tune, and all the courtiers knelt on the mountain and shouted "Long live"!

"Up!" The eunuch said a long tune again, "If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat!" ”

As soon as these words fell, I saw the waiter of the criminal department come out of the class and said, "Your Majesty! Yesterday, I heard that a Taoist priest was caught on top of Wanshou Mountain! ”

"The news of the Qing family is still very smart!" Zhu Jianshen's implication was to blame the courtiers for inquiring about the palace privately.

At this time, the waiter of the Criminal Department didn't care if he didn't hear Zhu Jianshen's words, and continued: "The minister heard that this Taoist priest has a lot of ability to subdue demons and eliminate demons among the people, and I implore the emperor to let Daoist Li go!" ”

Zhu Jianshen said: "That demon Dao broke into the inner garden of the palace privately, and collided with Yu Yu and did not respect the elder king's law!" How could I not cure him! ”

"Your Majesty, Daochang Li once relieved Weichen from the siege and eliminated the demons, and it is definitely not an evil demon!"

Master Wei of Dali Temple in the class admonished.

"How does the Qing family know that you are not deceived by that demon way, how do you know that it is not that demon way that persecuted you?" Zhu Jianshen asked rhetorically.

"Wechen has no grievances with him, why do you want to persecute Wechen!" Wei Daren.

"That's what he's for! Ulterior secrets! Zhu Jianshen's words made Master Wei speechless.

Zhu Jianshen never thought that these ministers would play in the court's advice for the demonic matter, and argue for it.

It's no wonder that Zhu Jianshen is so suspicious, Zhu Jianshen has lacked father's love since he was a child, and was deposed as a vassal king by his uncle Jingtai Emperor Zhu Qiyu, suffering in other places, and his mother has no chance to see him! Only Wan Guifei has always been by her side. Of course, Concubine Wan at that time was just a palace maid beside Zhu Jianshen.

His insecurity from an early age made him suspicious.

"Your Majesty ......" Several courtiers stood up in the class and said nonsense, which made Zhu Jianshen pinch his eyebrows and be silent.

Zhu Jianshen is paranoid, and this matter must be fought with the courtiers to the end.

He slapped the table and shouted, "You don't have to make noise!" I have my own decision! The matter of the demon Li Zilong has to be mentioned again, retreat! ”

Under the joint siege of the courtiers, I didn't expect Zhu Jianshen to end up in this way.

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do. Only Murong Wuji stood aside and said nothing, he faintly felt a bad premonition in his heart, but he couldn't say it......

Murong returned to the mansion worriedly, he hadn't returned for a long time, and there was just nothing to do on this day, plus Zhao Ling'an's mansion had no clue about the destruction of the door, so he returned to the mansion.

Qin Shuang heard the sound of horses' hooves outside the gate of the mansion early and greeted him.

"Why did you come back today?"

"Jinyi Mansion is back without business!" Murong said, untied his cloak and handed it to Qin Shuang.

At this time, Ning Wuwu also came out and said, "Why don't you notify me when you come back, so that the kitchen can be prepared!" ”

"It's all as simple as it gets!" Murong walked straight into the main hall.

Qin Shuang handed over a cup of hot tea and said, "Is there anything going on lately?" ”

"A case, but no clue yet......"

"And the case of you breaking out of prison and worrying about it!" Qin Shuang said with a smile.

Ning Wuwu said seriously: "I heard that the demon fox in the capital caused a lot of trouble, but this matter! ”

"Exactly!" Murong nodded.

"Let's eat first! It's rare to go home once, let's not talk about these things for now......" Qin Shuang pulled up Murong and then Ning Wuwu and said.

After the three of them had eaten, Murong asked, "Everything was okay when I wasn't there?" ”

Ning Wuwu and Qin Shuang looked at each other, and listened to Ning Wuwu say: "Everything else is fine, it's just that a Taoist priest came to the mansion a few days ago!" ”

Murong was stunned: "Daoist! ”

Ning Wuwu and Qin Shuang both noticed that Murong's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "Yes! A Taoist priest came to the house and said that he had something important to discuss! ”

Murong thought in his heart: Today, the court just debated the matter of Li Zilong's Taoist priest, but a few days ago, a Taoist priest looked for me, could it be Li Zilong!

Ning Wuwu continued: "I invited that Taoist priest to the main hall, and he said that you promised to give him one thing and let me go to your room to find it!" ”

He said it was a purple box. I left him alone in the main hall and searched for him in your room. ”

"But I couldn't find the purple box after searching for a long time, so I had to go to the main hall to explain it. By the time I got to the front hall, the priest was gone! ”

Ning Wuwu's words were heard by Murong Yunyun. He never knew any Taoist priests, let alone picked up any purple boxes.

Murong faintly felt in his heart that there was some secret in this.

Qin Shuang said: "I see, it's just a charlatan who doesn't need to pay attention to it!" ”

Murong shook his head slowly. Qin Shuang asked, "What did you think of!" ”

"I always feel restless these days......"

"It must be caused by your overwork in the past few days, just rest well today and don't think about official business anymore!" Qin Shuangdao.

At night, Zhu Jianshen hurriedly went to the prison accompanied by the guards.

The rancid smell in this prison could not make Zhu Jianshen disgusted, and his heart was extremely anxious, and he was even more anxious.

He quickened his steps again, passing through the curfews and cell cells.

"Your Majesty!" In the prison, the jailers knelt down and saluted, but Zhu Jianshen raised his hand to signal everyone to be exempted.

"What's going on!" Zhu Jianshen asked.

The cool official lowered his head and said, "The emperor should ask himself!" ”

Zhu Jianshen looked at the cool official with wide eyes, and the cool official stretched out his hand to signal Zhu Jianshen to go inside.

Inside is the Taoist priest Li Zilong who was beaten to the point of breaking flesh!

"What do you want to enter the palace privately?"

Li Zilong woke up slowly, and said weakly: "Assassination...... Assassinate the Emperor! ”

Zhu Jianshen looked at Li Zilong expressionlessly, and the cool official asked again: "Who are you instructed by!" ”

Li Zilong paused for a long time: "Mu ...... Murong Wuji! ”

Zhu Jianshen was stunned, like five thunderbolts, obviously unable to believe what he heard. He stepped forward again and asked, "Say it again, who asked you to assassinate me!" ”

Zhu Jianshen looked at Li Zilong, who had a blue nose and swollen face, and slowly spoke.

"Commander of the Jinyi Guard...... Murong Wujiren! ”
