Chapter 802: Confronting the court
Majestic, cold, unapproachable, as always.
Will the hearts of those who have lived here change over the years?
"Where are we going?"
Maybe Xiao Mi has a special explanation, and the palace is very polite to him: "The king and all the princes are waiting for Yan Gongzi in the side hall." ”
Sounds like a lot of people.
Yes, the Si family seized such an opportunity to make trouble, and they must need to make trouble in public.
Yan Saburo followed the palace to walk through the palace gates before entering the side hall of the Tianqian Palace.
The side hall is smaller than the main hall, and it can only accommodate thirty people at most, and it is not full at the moment, obviously Xiao Mi does not want to deal with this matter in front of hundreds of officials, so he only gathers the parties and a few witnesses.
Han Zhao stood under Xiao Mi, and when Yan Saburo walked in, the two sides looked at each other and looked away. Han Zhao was absent from Si Daguang's banquet last night on the grounds that he was staying in the suburbs to relax, but he appeared in Tianyao Palace this morning, which was not very face-saving for King Huai. But at this moment, no one has the heart to think about this.
The boy saw solemnity in his eyes.
Han Zhao was reminding him that this level was not easy.
Then, he saw Starlight.
This big man's face was full of strong grief, his eyes were bloodshot, and his gaze at Yan Saburo instantly erupted with amazing hatred!
The hatred was too full and too undisguised, and Yan Saburo's footsteps were stunned.
Huai Wang's hatred, it seems to be true?
Otherwise, this guy's acting attainments are much more powerful than those of the Su family.
Yan Saburo stood still and bowed to Xiao Mi: "Your Majesty." ”
He had the permission of the king, and he did not have to kneel down in front of the saint.
The eyes of all the ministers were focused. This is the first time he has appeared in the royal court, and there are many legends about this young man, and now if you look closely, although he is handsome, he is too young.
Xiao Mi leaned forward: "Qingle Bo, the prince of Huaiwang was killed by the weasel demon this morning." King Huai caught the murderer on the spot and identified it as a monster raised by Jingyuan's family. He clarified the incident in a few words, "Do you have anything to say about this?"
Yan Saburo groaned slightly: "I don't know where the weasel demon is?"
"Prison. "Han Zhao, "It's also a repeat offense. King Huai sent it, and Tingcha was put in prison. ”
Yan Sanlang's eyes moved slightly: "The murder is only an hour and a half ago, and King Huai sent the murderer to the prison?"
King Huai's cheek jumped: "Yan Shichu, what do you mean by this?"
"King Huai is impartial and law-abiding, admire. Yan Saburo turned to Xiao Mi, "Your Majesty, can I take a look at the murderer?"
This is also the purpose of Zhao Yanshi's first visit, Xiao Mi ordered: "Bring that thing to the front of the hall." ”
After a short time, the two guards carried an iron cage to the bottom of the steps of the side hall and did not move forward.
The iron cage is very large, and the fence is so dense that people can barely reach into their hands on their sides. A weasel was held in a cage, dying with his eyes closed.
It shrunk into a ball, with an iron ring around its neck, and the occasional flash of light.
Yan Saburo knew that it was a magic weapon for sealing cultivation.
He took two steps forward and crouched down to take a closer look.
The weasel's tail was cut in half, its hind legs were also discounted, its flesh and blood were blurred, and its originally smooth and fluffy fur was also severely burned. Yan Saburo's brows furrowed when he saw this, and anger flashed in his eyes.
Obviously, King Huai used lynching, and he didn't spare Huang Da in that hour and a half. If it had to be left to confront Yan Saburo in one breath, I am afraid it would have been executed long ago.
King Huai said loudly: "At the beginning of Yan Shichu, when it committed the murder, it was caught by me with my own hands, and countless civilians on the spot were witnesses! Take a good look at it, is this the weasel in your family!"
He shouted Yan Saburo's name, the weasel moved, opened his eyes and looked at King Huai, fear flashed in his small eyes, and then he saw Yan Saburo with a turn of his eyes.
To everyone's surprise, it did not show joy and cries for help when it saw its owner, but only dragged its injured leg and limped into the corner, and then shrunk its body tighter.
It's as if the two don't know each other.
This little thing is quite protective of the lord, King Huai sneered in his heart.
Xiao Mi said: "Qing Lebo, have you identified it? If this weasel demon is not raised by your family, I will order Wang Tingwei to continue to investigate." ”
Yan Saburo looked at Xiao Mi and saw that his eyes were calm with a little advice, and immediately understood: Xiao Mi wanted him to deny it.
If he denied it, perhaps he would be in much less trouble.
But Yan Saburo also understands that King Huai must be prepared to sue the royal court today, even if he and Huang Da don't recognize it, King Huai may have a way to plant it on his head.
What's more, it is not easy for the royal court to give an explanation to King Huai.
All kinds of thoughts flashed through Yan Saburo's heart, and he remembered what Chitose had just said in the Invitation Garden:
The best thing to do is not to admit it!
"Your Majesty. He turned to Xiao Mi, and his voice was clear, so that everyone in the side hall could hear it clearly, "This is indeed my domestic weasel demon." ”
Huang Da, who was curled up in the cage, opened his eyes, grateful and frightened.
After causing so much trouble for the young master, does the young master still want to recognize it? Push it out to fend for itself, it's safer for the Invitation Garden, right?
It can't even affect the father, the second sister and the two younger brothers who can't be transformed, as well as Xiaocui......
It raised its head and said, "Who are you? I don't recognize you!"
It was actually the weasel demon who opened his mouth to deny it? Everyone looked at each other, and the expressions on their faces were very subtle.
King Huai said coldly: "Your domestic monster still knows how to protect the master?
He always clenched his fists, it seemed that if it weren't for the public court here, if it weren't for King Wei sitting on it, I am afraid that he would have rushed to Haibian Yan Shi Chu for a meal.
Yan Saburo ignored his cynicism, leaned over to the weasel and said, "Huang Da come here, it's okay." ”
Huang Da looked at him fixedly, and found that the little master's eyes were gentle and resolute. He has been following Yan Saburo for many years, and he knows that the little master rarely makes any bold statements, but the decisions he makes are never easily overturned.
The little master wants to keep it, and this will is very clear, and he can't even tolerate Huang Da refusing.
The weasel walked over with difficulty, and Yan Saburo reached through the fence and gently rubbed its neck.
There seemed to be a glitter in the weasel demon's eyes.
"Okay, let's get down to business!" Things went more smoothly than King Huai imagined, Yan Shichu did not deny that this was his own weasel, so the rest was easy, "Yan Shichu, give me an explanation, why did your domestic weasel demon attack my son?"
"I only met Shizi last night, and I have never known each other. Yan Saburo shook his head, "There is no reason to harm him." He looked back at King Huai, "When it attacked the Son, was it in human form or in its original form?"
"Protomorph. ”
"There are a lot of weasels in Shengyi, why can King Huai think of me at the first time?" Yan Sanlang stared at King Huai, "Have I offended the Si family?"
Han Zhao pursed his lips before he could stop the corners of his mouth from turning up. Yan Shichu's sharpness has not diminished, and the current situation is obviously unfavorable to him, but he still remembers to fight back.
This is like a little friend who overthrew the rule of the avant-garde king with him.
Yan Saburo pointed at the weasel and said, "In people's eyes, weasels all look similar, right?
