Chu Yan frowned invisibly and forcibly endured the discomfort in his heart.

Seeing that the fire was almost over, he said indifferently: "In this case, for the sake of the safety of the crown princess, today's burning ceremony will simply be stopped for the time being." ”

However, as soon as the words fell-

Shen Lingxi, who was outside the king's tent, heard the souls of Taishu Mei and Xiang Zhou, and said in unison: "No!" ”

Shen Lingxi's eyebrows raised slightly.

Tai Shumei only refused because of Xiang Zhou's previous instructions.

But Xiang Zhou's expression was obviously a little certain.

has reached the point of "sacrificing to the sky", and Xiang Zhou is still unwilling to give up the matter of destroying her body, which shows that he has a way to break the current situation.

As a dead soul who has been dead for five years, if he can break this situation, he will definitely move the nails he planted before he died.

This is exactly what Shen Lingxi wants.

The more cards he leaks, the bigger her chance of winning.

"Oh? Why is that? ”

Chu Yan seemed a little surprised, and asked in a surprised tone, "Isn't the crown princess afraid of arousing public anger?" Today, the people are outnumbered, far more than the soldiers brought by General Gu and Xiao, if they are really angered and riot, it will be difficult for you and me to end, it is better to quietly destroy them another day, wouldn't it be more secure? ”

Tai Shumei thinks that she, a cheap husband, is very reasonable.

But she was not good at making claims, so she had to look at Xiang Zhou for help.

Xiang Zhou's gaze swept around the crowd, and a gleam flashed in his eyes, "Even if you stop today, these people are instigated, and they will kill you to sacrifice to the sky in the future, it is better to solve this matter once and for all, so that it will help you ascend to the throne of God in the future." ”

It's about the future, and Uncle Tai's eyes lit up.

Xiang Zhou instructed, "From this moment on, whatever I do, you will follow it, and nothing will go wrong." ”

When Shen Lingxi heard this, he also came to his senses, and his black eyes looked straight into the king's tent.

Mu Huai'an noticed her reaction and was about to ask-

Suddenly, I heard that in the king's tent, the "Shen Lingxi" who was ghosted on the body, said to Chu Yan in a delicate voice: "Husband, the concubine has already thought of a way to appease those people." He also asked the husband to send a few people to instruct the concubines, and this time he will definitely be able to turn the danger into a disaster, and he can also let the burning go on as usual. ”

Mu Huai'an raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of surprise.

He lowered his voice and asked: "What is the origin of this person who is on you, and he is still mourning and crying, and he will be able to break the situation now?" ”

Shen Lingxi didn't intend to hide it from him.

"The emperor and queen who died in the previous dynasty, too uncle."

Mu Huai'an's eyes widened, the previous dynasty had been dead for more than 30 years, and the soul of the emperor and queen could be resurrected, which was far beyond his cognition.

"It's amazing...... Mu Huai'an sighed, "Just because she's so old, and she can still call His Royal Highness 'husband', I have to worship her anyway." ”

Shen Lingxi glanced at him and continued to look into the king's tent.

At this moment, Chu Yan's voice came from the king's tent: "Go and call Mu Huai'an and let him listen to the dispatch of the crown princess." ”

Mu Huai'an: ......

"Here's your chance." Shen Lingxi looked in the direction of the king's tent and lowered his chin, "Go and worship." ”

Mu Huai'an: ......

Mu Huai'an pulled the rope tied to Shen Lingxi's waist and left Shen Lingxi on the side of the tent covered by Su Jin.

And he himself walked into the tent and saluted respectfully, "Your Highness, the minister has just caught the accomplice of the assassin who assassinated the crown princess, and he is being interrogated at this time, he really can't leave, why don't you let Chunjun go?" Otherwise, General Xiao can do it, General Xiao brought a lot of people up the mountain this time, so it would be good to atone for his sins, right? ”

"General Xiao can't!" Uncle Tai Mei didn't wait for Chu Yan to speak, and categorically refused: "I can't say that these Diao people were instigated by General Xiao, and the concubines can't trust him." ”

Xiao Rui knelt on the ground, and a touch of anger flashed in his eyes.

Chu Yan raised his eyes, swept his gaze over the rope in Mu Huai'an's hand, and looked at the other end of the rope.

The so-called "Assassin accomplices" in his mouth were standing beside the tent covered by Su Jin.

Although I can't see the other party's appearance, I can faintly see that the other party is a thin woman.

Chu Yan's eyes suddenly darkened, he looked at Mu Huai'an coldly, and said lightly: "Chunjun has other important matters, this matter must be yours." As for the suspect in your hand, stay here for the time being, and go. ”

Mu Huai'an choked hard.

If it weren't for Shen Lingxi, he hadn't appeared in Chu Yan's line of sight from beginning to end.

He was afraid that he really thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did it on purpose.

Seeing Uncle Tai Mei looking at him.

Mu Huaian knew that if he refused to continue, it would only attract the suspicion of the other party, so he had to respond.

He turned in the direction of Shen Lingxi and pulled the rope, "Little blind man, don't come in quickly." ”

Shen Lingxi, as before, walked into the king's tent tremblingly with a bamboo cane.

She groped her way and knelt down in front of her, looking like she was genuinely afraid.

The moment Chu Yan saw her, his pupils shook slightly, and his thin lips pursed into a straight line.

Mu Huai'an saw that he had a displeased look on his face, and said to Shen Lingxi in a timely manner: "She is a blind person, she is still a mute, staying here is afraid of hindering Her Highness's eyes, it is better to let Chunjun ......"

"Chunjun, give the seat." Chu Yan said with a faint expression, "General Xiao should also get up." ”

Chunjun was a little confused.

Bestow a seat?

Give a seat to a suspect?

Even though he had doubts in his heart, Chunjun still followed his words and moved a chair behind Shen Lingxi.

Shen Lingxi chuckled in his heart, hurriedly made a panicked appearance, kowtowed again and again, and trembled with fright.

Chu Yan's unprecedentedly abnormal behavior also attracted Uncle Tai's incomprehensible questioning: "Your Highness, why are you so courteous to this suspect?" ”

"It's just a suspect, and he can't be a real murderer until the government convicts him." He replied lightly: "General Xiao knelt down in the king's tent, and it has already caused a lot of discussion among the people...... The blind and dumb people kneel in the tent, and those people outside do not know the inside story, and they will say that they are lonely and unkind, which will damage the reputation of the lonely. ”

Chunjun was almost shocked when he heard this.

When did His Royal Highness become such a person who "cherishes feathers" and "cherishes reputation"?

It's outrageous.

Mu Huai'an also heard that something was wrong, and guessed that he must have noticed that the "little blind man" was Shen Lingxi, so he suddenly had mixed feelings in his heart.

On the contrary, it was Tai Shumei and Xiao Rui, two people who didn't know much about Chu Yan, who didn't notice anything unusual.

Chu Yan's gaze swept over Uncle Tai Mei and fell on Xiao Rui's face, "Since the crown princess has a way to calm the resentment of the people, General Xiao might as well go to study with the crown princess, lest after returning to Beijing alone, encounter this kind of scene again, General Xiao can't hold it down, so don't you have to let the prince of Zhenguo transfer the soldiers to help you?" ”

Xiao Rui heard the displeasure in his words, implying the meaning of beating, and hurriedly said yes.

And Uncle Tai Mei heard the meaning of her maintenance from the words, and was overjoyed, glared at Xiao Rui fiercely, and walked out with her head held high.

Since she left, Mu Huai'an and Xiao Rui naturally wanted to follow Chu Yan's intentions and follow her closely.

Only Xiang Zhou was left, and he only told Uncle Mei to wait for him at the altar first.

He himself floated in the king's tent, and his scrutinizing gaze fell on Chu Yan's face.

Although Xiang Zhou didn't know much about Chu Yan, he had an innate intuition.

He knew that this person who could decisively order the destruction of the altar and the imperial tomb five years ago would not easily let go of a suspect because of people's words.

Although Chu Yan couldn't see it, there was a ghost staring at him faintly.

But that didn't affect his judgment.

"Why, Gu Fang has already made it very clear, you haven't gotten up yet, are you going to let Gu personally help you?" Chu Yan said in a calm voice and displeasure.

Shen Lingxi knew that Xiang Zhou was still there, so he kowtowed in horror, stood up with his hands and feet, and sat down nervously next to the edge of the chair with a bamboo cane in both hands.

Her dark eyes were facing Xiang Zhou's direction.

Chu Yan casually glanced at the void as far as her eyes could see.

He said to Chunjun next to him: "The king of Yunjiang and the deceased saint, the sister and brother are in deep love, and the king of Yunjiang knows that the king of Yunjiang can't bear to have the remains of the saint destroyed, you go to the tomb to find him, and the widow will personally enlighten him, so as not to hurt him when the crown princess orders the coffin to be burned later." ”

Chun Jun responded and turned around.

Xiang Zhou listened to Chu Yan's words, and then saw that there was no communication between him and the "little blind man", and finally felt a little relieved, and turned around and floated towards the uncle on the altar.

After he left, Shen Lingxi finally put away his panicked look and turned his head to look at Chu Yan.

"He's gone." She asked in a hoarse voice, "How did Your Highness recognize me?" ”

Chu Yan's gaze was firmly fixed on her dark and godless eyes.

I have been nervous for days, but I want to be calm, and I finally put it into practice.

"Mu Huaian will not tie up a female suspect for no reason." He rolled his Adam's apple and said rather sourly, "Unless that person is you." ”

"That morning, I realized that she wasn't you, and I was going crazy......"

"It wasn't until the black armor guard came to report that Yun Yu had placed a woman in the house that I knew you were safe."

"I know that you must have other plans, and Xiang Zhou's ghost will definitely be around me, so I don't dare to show anything."

"I've been waiting for ......"

In his deep voice, there was a hint of indescribable and restrained effort, and although it sounded like it was only a few words, it seemed to be saying a lot.

Shen Lingxi didn't know why, in the empty chest of this corpse, he suddenly had the illusion that his heart was beating.

She tightened her hands and was silent for a few breaths, "When I was going up the mountain, an assassin attacked the crown princess, I dodged for a while, and he saw the flaw, so he recognized me, and I asked him to tie me up so that I could find out their details." ”

As a party to the contract, she explained to him in this way, lest he misunderstand, it was also ...... It's normal.

The haze in Chu Yan's eyes disappeared in an instant because of this intentional explanation.

"Only you are the crown princess." He corrected earnestly in a tone: "She's not. ”

When Shen Lingxi heard this, the corners of his lips pulled out an arc similar to a smile, "After all, that's my body, and when the time is right, I'll take it back." ”

While the two were talking, there was a sudden commotion outside.

Shen Lingxi turned his head to look out, and saw Mu Huai'an with his soldiers, under the command of Tai Shumei, from among those people, one after another was constantly arresting people out......
