In just six days, the dismemberment of the corpse of the king of Yunjiang in front of the palace of the Barbarian Fang has been widely spread in the capital.

In front of everyone's eyes, the stumps of the King of Yunjiang were scurrying around, and the scene was too weird, far beyond ordinary people's understanding of gods and ghosts.

The matter was already terrifying, and under the impetus of well-intentioned people, the people of the capital closed their doors and locked their homes, and the rumors were heard.

For fear that if you wander outside, you will get into trouble with something unclean and attract ghosts to the door.

Don't say that no one dares to go to the streets at night, even during the day, the east and west markets, which have always been the most lively, are crowded with people, and business is unprecedentedly deserted.

The only thing that can be called lively is the palace temples all over the capital, and the exorcism charms of the Golden Immortal Temple are about to be fried to one or two pieces of silver.

In this situation, there are faint rumors that "after the prince enters the East Palace, the demons and ghosts will come out, and it must be because this prince is not blessed by heaven, so that the dragon qi in the capital cannot suppress the demons." ”

The rumor reached the emperor's ears, and the emperor was furious.

The embroidered envoy, Dali Temple and the prefect of the capital were ordered to try the case in public.

In front of the people, we must investigate and understand the matter of Yunhongshan's deception of the corpse.

So, the time was neither early nor late, and it was set on the seventh day that Chu Yan had said early in the morning.

Seven is a meaningful number.

Taoists believe that everything in the world is born with the qi of yin and yang, supplemented by the five elements, in order to derive and even prosper.

Yin and Yang two qi plus five elements, exactly the number of seven.

Therefore, seven is contained in all things, determines the changes of all things, and has the meaning of reincarnation.

The first seven days are the days of returning to the soul.

In order to rectify the atmosphere in the capital, Chu Yan ordered the prefect to open a court for interrogation directly in front of the government yamen.

Considering that the people were in awe of ghosts and gods, he also specially invited the senior monks of Huguo Temple, the Taoist priests of Shangqing Palace, and the Kun Dao of Jinxian Temple, and set up water and land dojos on both sides of the public hall.

This was the first time for Chu Yan, the crown prince who had never believed in ghosts and gods.

The people of the capital surrounded the field in front of the prefect's house, and the officials stood on both sides, and the monks and Taoist chiefs were lined up on the left and right.

The emperor, empress and empress dowager all sent their cronies to watch.

The case was tried by Wang Yuanchang, the prefect of the capital, and the embroidered envoy and Dali Temple observed.

Everyone saw the crown prince Chu Yan, dressed in dark embroidered gold, with a jade crown and tied hair, sitting on the east side with dignity and majesty.

Beside him, sat a woman wearing a snow-colored robe and a lotus crown on her head.

The woman's eyes are bright and her teeth are bright, and her posture is clear and beautiful.

The wide Dao robe was worn on her, and there was a feeling of Dao bone fairy wind.

"Who is this woman? can sit next to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, his status must not be low, how come he has never seen it? In the crowd, everyone asked questions.

No wonder they don't recognize it.

In fact, on the day of the wedding, on the jade chariot of marrying the crown princess, Shen Lingxi was dressed in the crown dress of the crown princess, and her temperament was majestic and noble, giving people the impression that she was a noble girl who was high above and was at the top of power.

It is far from the appearance of the unapplied fat powder in front of him, like a fairy descending to earth, not stained with the dust of the world.

"Look...... How is it like the crown princess newly married? ”

"That's right! That's right! Isn't it the crown princess! ”

"Since you are married to the royal bride, you should abide by the palace rules and women's virtues, live in the East Palace, and open up branches and leaves for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince as soon as possible. Why do you have to dress up like this and show your head in front of people? This is the queen of the world who will be the mother of the world in the future of my Great Zhou, what kind of system will it become! ”

"Hey, don't forget, this one is not only the crown princess, she is also a wonderful spirit heavenly master given by the emperor. Today, if she wants to try this kind of ghost case, looking at the entire capital, who can have a more profound Xuanmen spell than her, she naturally wants to come out to administer justice for the prince. ”

"Who said that a woman must have a husband and children in the deep palace? Don't forget, Empress Wulie, the founder of the previous dynasty, ruled the world with Emperor Wende, fixed the border and Anbang, and ruled martial arts, creating a generation of prosperity, that is, the first emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty praised Empress Wulie as a heroine among women. If this crown princess can have the talent of Empress Wulie, even if she shows her head, why not? ”

"Heh, in the final analysis, it's just a kun dao, just engage in some evil magic and deceive people. Relying on some tricks to grandstand, it is not called a heroine among women, it is called a demon queen. ”

The case has not yet been tried, and the onlookers have already made a lot of noise about whether Shen Lingxi, the new crown princess, should pretend to be Kun Dao and appear in the court.

Those imperial historians will not miss such an opportunity, and keep the remarks of each family in their hearts one by one, and a considerable number of people have already begun to fight the draft, sharpening their knives Huo Huo is ready to participate in Shen Lingxi's crime of "Chicken Sichen and Troubled Dynasty".

Although Shen Lingxi didn't have any martial arts, his ears were much sharper than ordinary people, so he naturally listened to the words of those people.

She originally planned to come here in disguise as Chu Yan's entourage as before.

But at Chu Yan's request, he showed his true face and sat beside him.

Shen Lingxi originally thought that the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty were civilized and did not resist the appearance of women.

I didn't expect it to be like this.

She looked at Chu Yan and asked thoughtfully, "Why don't you ...... Shall I go for a change of appearance? ”

Chu Yan's slender eyebrows raised slightly, "Do you care about them talking about you?" ”

"Not really." Whether in her previous life or in this life, Shen Lingxi only followed her heart and responsibilities in doing things, and never cared what others thought of her, "I'm not worried about causing trouble to Your Highness, at this time, it's better to have more than one thing to ......."

"You and I are husband and wife, and husband and wife should advance and retreat together. In the future, in this Great Zhou Dynasty, no matter who you are, you have to accept that I have you by my side. Chu Yan looked at her and said meaningfully, "They will slowly get used to it." ”

Shen Lingxi was slightly stunned.

She moved her lips, tempting to say, "Fake couples don't have to be like that."

But when she saw Chu Yan staring at her with serious and uncompromising eyes, she swallowed the words that came to her mouth again.

Shen Lingxi turned his face to look at the crowd, deliberately avoiding his gaze, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, as long as you don't feel troublesome, we are used to being pointed at for doing white things, and I never care what others think of me." ”

She was telling the truth, but Chu Yan heard something else.

"It was my lack of thought that caused you to suffer this kind of criticism in public, and this kind of thing will not happen again in the future." Chu Yan said in a deep voice.

As soon as Shen Lingxi heard this, he knew that he would be wrong.

She turned her head to explain.

saw Chu Yan's eyes lightly glanced at the prefect.

The prefect's expression was solemn, and he slapped down with a "snap", and said in a deep voice: "Silence! ”

"Wei ...... Military! "The yacha sang majestically," he said...... Hall! ”

The scene immediately fell silent.

The trial began.

"Bring the culprit suspected of killing the King of Yunjiang up!"

As soon as the words fell, a yacha led the princess Xiao of Yunjiang and Yun Chao, the prince of Yunjiang, and walked out.

All the people present saw that the yacha had brought two people to the court.

But in Shen Lingxi's eyes, Xiao Shi was not only followed by the ghost of Yunhong Mountain, who was full of "tentacles", but also followed by Kui Nineteen, Xie Zhangting, Xie Zhanghua and a group of former and later concubines.

What's more, even the soul of Old Madam Xie, who was not staying in the mourning hall of her own house, came here to watch the excitement.

It's really a big group of ghosts.

Because they wanted to avoid Chu Yan's range, they had to fill the space vacated for the public court.

Shen Lingxi still has to stare at these ghosts and find the living.

Fortunately, Princess Xiao should have no fear, and she is still dressed gracefully and luxuriously today.

The red gold hairpin in the hair swayed, shining brightly in the sun.

Princess Xiao is an edict, and Yun Chao is also an official, so naturally she can not kneel in court.

Princess Xiao's maiden name is Yuanfeng, and she is the sister of Xiao Rui, the general of Yunjiang.

Xiao Rui is in charge of 100,000 soldiers and horses in Yunjiang, which is the remaining elite after Yunguo returned to the Great Zhou.

With such a brother, Xiao Yuanfeng Mo said that in Yunjiang, even in Da Zhou, he is extremely dignified.

She was dressed up gracefully and luxuriously, and as soon as she went to the hall, she first greeted Chu Yan: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Jin An, my brother wrote a letter yesterday and asked the concubine to ask His Highness to say goodbye to His Highness on his behalf, and my brother said that he looked forward to His Highness going to Yunjiang again and having fun with him." ”

She never left the word "brother", as if reminding Chu Yan of the reliance behind her.

Shen Lingxi heard the familiarity in Xiao Yuanfeng's tone, and his eyebrows moved slightly.

This reminded her of the holy mountain that she had heard from Mu Huai'an when she was in the nineteenth year of the trial that it should be Chu Yan who ordered Yun Hongshan to instruct Xiao Rui to destroy the holy mountain.

More than 100 people in the Medicine Palace died here.

If he is really familiar with Xiao Rui......

Shen Lingxi didn't want to think about it.

When the case is closed, she has to ask Yun Hongshan about it.

"If Princess Xiao really cares about Brother Ling, she should truthfully confess the cause of King Yunjiang's death, so as not to let Brother Ling be deceived and make a big mistake under impulse." Chu Yan said coldly: "Gu has ordered the prince of Zhenguo to wait for him, and the princess should know that there are not many Yunjiang soldiers left under Brother Ling." ”

When Princess Xiao heard this, her face froze.

Seeing Chu Yan's attitude, Governor Wang already had a bottom in his heart.

"Smack!" After a while, he slapped the shocked wood again, and said to Princess Xiao: "Xiao Yuanfeng, someone accused you of murdering your husband on the morning of the first day of October, and making his body into a puppet, pretending that he was still alive, and using Shangjing to ask for the seal for the prince, but the facts?" ”

Xiao Yuanfeng's pupils suddenly constricted.

The first day of October.

The people who knew this day were all dead before they came to Beijing.

How could the government know the real time of Yun Hongshan's death?

"Please also ask the prefect to be aware that night in front of the palace, when the prince was killed by someone with evil magic, the traitor tried to blame me and the son."

Xiao Yuanfeng said, took out the handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped the corners of his eyes, and made a mournful appearance: "Now that someone has reported this matter to the official, such a conclusive statement must be an accomplice to the person who killed the prince." Our mother and son are also bitter masters, the prefect may wish to bring the person who reported to the official to the court, I am willing to confront him face to face, and return my mother and son's innocence. ”

Yun Hongshan's death happened in Yunjiang.

Xiao Yuanfeng was already fearless about this, so why was he afraid of confronting others.

In her opinion, this so-called "reporting official" must be a person who does not have a need.

She is also a dignified princess, if Xiao Xiao dares to make a false accusation in person, she can sue him for the crime of "committing the following crimes" with her backhand.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yuanfeng was shocked for a while.

Governor Wang pretended to hesitate and looked in the direction of Chu Yan.

Although he was ordered by the emperor to preside over the trial of this case today, it was only because it was about the crown prince, and it was inconvenient for the embroidery to appear in public.

At best, he was just a mouthpiece, and even the two sentences just now were instructed by His Highness to say them.

Xiao Yuanfeng's eyes have been fixed on the Wang Governor's Mansion.

Seeing that he looked uncertain and cowering, she became more and more calm.

is used to being a superior person in Yunjiang, Xiao Yuanfeng's pitiful and weak appearance, he only pretends to be too lazy to continue pretending.

She said aggressively: "The prefect has not called the plaintiff for a long time, but he knows that he has no substantiated evidence, is it purely a false accusation?" If this is the case, I will definitely go to the palace to see the emperor and ask the emperor to administer justice for my mother and son! ”

When the prefect Wang heard this, he seemed to have made up his mind, hurriedly stood up, walked in front of Shen Lingxi, and saluted her: "Please also ask Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess to take action and invite the plaintiff to the court." ”

Shen Lingxi nodded in response, stood up, and waved his hand at the people waiting outside the field.

At the sign of her, four embroiderers immediately walked up carrying two stretchers covered with white cloths.

Behind them, there was also a young man wearing the Qing Palace's magic robes.

That young man is none other than the now well-known in the capital, the second son of the former Wu Anbo family, a prodigy who became famous as a young man, and the only closed disciple under the seat of Ming Zhenzi, the eighty-eighth generation of the Qing Palace on Taiyi Mountain, Su Xian.

Since the first seven soul nights of Wu Anbo's old ancestor, Su Xian and Shen Lingxi's "soul return technique" has become a legend in the capital.

When everyone saw him playing, they had already vaguely guessed what they were going to do this time.

It's also strange to say.

The people heard that the king of Yunjiang was dismembering the corpse in front of the palace, and they were so frightened that they closed the door and locked the house.

But for Su Xian and Shen Lingxi's "Soul Rejuvenation Technique", it was regarded as a miracle, not only was he not afraid at all, but he was also faintly excited and looking forward to it.

Probably because people are always more likely to be afraid of things they don't understand.

And Su Xian, the disciple of the Shangqing Palace, and Shen Lingxi, the name of the "Heavenly Master", have the background of Taoism, which is easy for the people to accept.

Xiao Yuanfeng first came to the capital, and he didn't know much about the "magical powers" of Su Xian and Shen Lingxi.

She was only surprised by Shen Lingxi, the crown princess...... How do you look familiar?

Shen Lingxi's identity is a head higher than her, so condescending to come out to stir up the situation, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with this time.

"I have lived in Yunjiang for a long time, and I have lived with the crown princess, why did the crown princess falsely accuse me?" Xiao Yuanfeng went out and took the lead in making a difficulty, "I heard that the crown princess has a close relationship with my concubine Yun Yu, could it be that the crown princess wants to fight for the throne of Yunjiang for my unfilial concubine, so that she will frame our mother and son?" ”

Shen Lingxi's apricot eyes were slightly raised.

She didn't expect that even Xiao Yuanfeng, who was far away in Yunjiang, knew about her admitting that Yun was a righteous brother.

From this point of view, Xiao Yuanfeng's choice to kill Yun Hongshan in early October was not a whim.

Shen Lingxi's apricot eyes looked at Xiao Yuanfeng's eyes and smiled.

"The princess misunderstood, this case has nothing to do with me, but when I was meditating in front of Venerable Sanqing a few days ago, King Yunjiang asked me in a dream to avenge him."

"As you said, Yun Yu is my righteous brother, his father has something to ask for, for the sake of my righteous brother's face, I naturally want to help."

"Therefore, I came today to borrow some strength to the King of Yunjiang, let him be the plaintiff himself, and avenge his own grievances......"
