Chapter 246: Repair the Body, Rebuild Trust

Xiao Yuanfeng heard Shen Lingxi's words, and then looked at her appearance, and suddenly remembered that this princess was none other than the entourage who was in front of the palace that night, holding the stump of Yunhong Mountain, and screaming in fright.

Xiao Yuanfeng had a faint bad premonition.

Not only her, but even Yun Chao beside him recognized Shen Lingxi, "Mother, this person ......"

Xiao Yuanfeng gave Yun Chao a slightly calming look.

She looked at Shen Lingxi: "Why can't I understand what the crown princess said?" What is the dream, what is the help? The prince and the crown princess have never met, even if they want to dream, they should dream for me and the prince. The crown princess is now saying this in front of everyone, is she planning to emulate the real murderer that night and pretend to be a ghost in public? ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone on the field looked at her strangely.

I'm afraid this isn't a fool, is it? Don't even know the name of the Wonderful Spirit Heavenly Master?

Miao Ling Heavenly Master can only "summon ghosts", why do you need to pretend to be a god and make ghosts?

Xiao Yuanfeng frowned, and for a moment he didn't understand what the meaning of these eyes suddenly cast on him was.

Shen Lingxi smiled, too lazy to say more to Xiao Yuanfeng.

She walked over to a stretcher and reached out to lift the white cloth that covered it.

Under the white cloth, there is Yun Hong's stump full of "tentacles".

If it was said that it was night before, the light was too dim, and many people did not see Yun Hongshan's body clearly.

At the moment, in broad daylight.

Everyone clearly saw the true face of those stumps in Yunhong Mountain.

Everyone on the field gasped in unison.

The stumps were on stretchers, in the shape of a human being, and the lower limbs and the right arm had been stitched together.

The head and the left arm are still the same as they were that night.

Whether it is a sutured or unsutured joint, there are a large number of silver threads stacked on top of each other.

Those silk threads made Yun Hongshan's corpse look like a monster covered with tentacles.

Many of the onlookers had seen the corpse in the barbarian fang that night, and the corpse was dismembered, and now they saw it again, and they were all frightened and frightened.

"This corpse won't be cheated again, right? It's so long that if it gets into the crowd......"

"Say no more, stop talk! I regret coming here! ”

"Shhh I won't let the ghosts show up. ”

"What about me? What about the talisman I have with me? Why is my charm missing? ”

The crowd couldn't help but make a commotion, and there were already some people who began to walk out when they saw Yun Hongshan's body.

Shen Lingxi took in everyone's reactions, and said loudly: "You don't have to be afraid, the reason why this corpse is like this is because there are craftsmen from the Yunjiang puppet sect who made the corpse into a puppet. Each joint of the King of Yunjiang was made into a special bracket, which was then threaded with silk threads, and was specially controlled by the puppeteer. ”

She picked up the arm on her left that had not yet been stitched, and used a tool to remove the brackets at the joints, showing them one by one.

Last time in the Yunjiang Palace, Shen Lingxi let Yun Hongshan's body be self-extricated in front of everyone, in order to expose the people of the palace to manipulate the body.

At this moment, she showed the opportunity in public to dispel the fear in the hearts of the people.

Let them know that the reason why Yun Hongshan's corpse is like this is because it is man-made, not the power of ghosts and gods.

Stitching up the body is the first step in rebuilding the trust of the people.

At the same time, Shen Lingxi didn't forget to look at Xiao Yuanfeng, and asked unceremoniously, "Princess Xiao said that the prince was killed on the night of the fraud seven days ago. But if you want to make a corpse into a puppet, you can't get it in three or five days, how can you turn a living person into such a sophisticated puppet in just a few hours? ”

"Moreover, according to the examination of the body of the prince, the body has been specially embalmed, and the time of death should be more than 20 days. For so many days, the princess and this corpse went to Beijing together, getting along day and night, why didn't they find the strange appearance of this corpse? ”

The people who had originally retreated to the periphery stopped their steps when they heard Shen Lingxi's words, stretched their necks and looked in the direction of Shen Lingxi.

Because Yun Hongshan's body has been embalmed, his stump has a neat incision and does not look hideous.

Shen Lingxi used scissors to remove the silk threads one by one, fixed the joints on the corpse, and then sewed his arms on the corpse.

She was wearing a snow-colored Taoist robe, her expression was extremely focused, and her white fingers quickly threaded needles and threads at the joints.

The faint look of compassion in her eyes seemed to be stitched under her hands, not a terrible corpse, but a poor man who had been brutally destroyed after death.

The people who came to see the excitement were all ordinary people.

In their eyes, nobles will always be dressed in brocade clothes and look high. How have anyone ever seen that the princess of a country is a princess and concubine, and she does this kind of work in front of people.

It is not shy to say that this kind of thing is such a thing as burying people's corpses, even among ordinary people, it is a work that cannot be seen and makes people feel extremely unlucky.

But Shen Lingxi not only did it in front of the public, but also was so focused and calm, people couldn't help but stop and admire.

Because of this, when everyone looked at Princess Xiao again, they all cast questioning glances.

Xiao Yuanfeng obviously didn't expect that this crown princess would have such skills, and she was more vigilant in her heart.

However, for Shen Lingxi's questioning, she had already thought of countermeasures in her heart, and she was not afraid at all.

"What? You said that the prince died more than 20 days ago? ”

Xiao Yuanfeng knew that the facts were in front of him, but he couldn't deny it, so he deliberately made a shocked appearance.

Suddenly, she seemed to think of something, and there was a sudden look on her face.

"The prince favored a little servant before his death, named Pei Nineteen, he entered Beijing this time, and ordered that all things in daily life should be taken care of by Pei Nineteen. Even I couldn't get close along the way. If it is really as you said, the murderer who killed the prince must be Pei Nineteen! ”

When Yun Chao heard this, he hurriedly agreed: "What the mother concubine said is right, Pei Shijiu is a disciple of the Yunjiang Puppet Sect, and he must have done it!" ”

His words were conclusive, as if he was not the one who wept and repented in front of Yun Hongshan's body in public that night.

Shen Lingxi sewed the gap between the corpses, raised his eyes, and glanced at them with a smile, "What the princess and the prince said is not unreasonable, Pei Shijiu is indeed a disciple of the puppet sect. It's just that he was killed in the palace that night, and there is no proof of his death. ”

She stretched out her hand and pointed to the white cloth stretcher next to her, "Well, there it is." ”

In the past few days, Xiao Yuanfeng has been with Yun Chao, and has been locked in the courtyard by the embroidered clothes envoy, and has never stepped out of the courtyard gate.

As for the news from outside, they only knew what the embroidered messenger had intended to let them know.

Xiao Yuanfeng held Yun Chao's hand, walked to the stretcher, and asked Yun Chao to lift a small piece of the white cloth.

When she clearly saw that the body on the stretcher was indeed Kui Nineteen, her expression became even more relaxed.

Sure enough, there is no proof of death.

It's good to die.

Urda is indeed reliable.

"Right...... It's him. Xiao Yuanfeng covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, raised his eyes to look at the prefect of the head, and took out the princess's style, "Prefect Wang, it seems that the prince is indeed the victim of Kui Nineteen, since the culprit has been ambushed, then the case can be closed." ”

"No, no."

This time, Shen Lingxi didn't raise his head, and seriously sewed Yun Hongshan's head onto the corpse.

"The princess just wanted the plaintiff to show up, and no matter what, the plaintiff has to show up today. Moreover, the princess also personally identified the murderer. Since it is a three-hall trial, what is required is conclusive evidence, and if the murderer does not admit his guilt in court, how can the case be easily closed? ”

Xiao Yuanfeng couldn't guess what medicine was being sold in Shen Ling's rhino gourd.

She said in a deep voice, "What does the crown princess mean by this? ”

Shen Lingxi carefully cut off the last thread on Yun Hongshan's corpse.

Make sure that there are no signs of manipulation of the body anymore.

She smiled and said to Su Xian, who had been waiting for a long time: "Dao Chief, the body of King Yunjiang has been repaired, and you can raise the altar to summon his soul......"
