54 Let the spirits kneel and prostrate
When a son said this, everyone was in an uproar. Although he was bold and reckless, when he thought about it, it was a big truth. With the suspicious and suspicious character of the current emperor, once he hears that King Heng died in Bifu, he will definitely be such a conjecture. That Chang Daren's heart was shocked, and he couldn't care about the ugly words of this son, so he hurriedly asked: "The lower official is willing to hear the details." ”
De Yizi under the cloak said coldly: "The emperor has long believed that this prince of his own has entered Shu without permission to win over the Bi family to rebel, even if you can come up with conclusive evidence that King Heng's trip is not unjust, the emperor will not believe it in his heart, not to mention that it is a random bluff, saying that the deceased of Bifu is not King Heng, do you think the emperor can believe it? So the key to this case lies in the life and death of King Heng." If it is certain that King Heng is dead, the emperor will be able to put his mind at ease, no matter who he wants to condemn or whose sins he wants to pardon, it is easy to say anything; if he cannot determine the life and death of King Heng, the emperor will not be at ease after all, but will suspect that the Bi family and King Heng are secretly colluding, and they have also colluded with you officials who are handling the case to plan something wrong. ”
Hearing this, Xie Yixiang and Master Chang were shocked into a cold sweat in their vests, and they were even more ashamed in their hearts. To say that both of them are veterans in the officialdom, after a little thought, they know that Yizi's words are not bad at all, and he only hates that he failed to think through before. I only heard Nade Yizi continue: "If you want to end this case now, let the people of Bifu get rid of their crimes, King Heng must die, so that the emperor can put his heart down." As long as the emperor breathes a sigh of relief, even if the murderer of King Heng is really a member of the Bi family, the emperor may be able to open the net. ”
When Xie Yixiang heard this, she couldn't help but say in her heart: "That's right, even we all know that King Heng has bad intentions, and of course the emperor knows it. So now that King Heng died in Bifu, most of the people who did not recognize the emperor's six relatives were more happy than worried, and even thought that the people of the Bi family were loyal and unwilling to join the same stream with King Heng, so they killed King Heng. In this way, the reason why the emperor appointed Chang Daren and Xian Jingyue, two officials who were related to the Bi family, to come to investigate openly and secretly, was not necessarily to take care of Bi Wuzong's exploits in the past, but because of the Bi family's 'commendation' for removing his confidants? Therefore, if the case is really closed as he proposed before, saying that the deceased is not King Heng, but will make the emperor more distracted, then it will harm the Bi family, and also harm himself and Chang Daren. ”
Thinking about the key to this, Xie Yixiang secretly called for luck, and was extremely afraid in her heart. Fortunately, Bi Changxiao, a straw bag, repeatedly opposed and insisted on finding out the truth of the case, which made his proposal fall through. She immediately said to Na De Yizi, "Thank you for your advice." Now that we have found the head and body of King Heng and confirmed the identity of the deceased, then the so-called death of King Heng in Bifu is naturally an unchangeable fact. So what we need to do next is to find out who killed King Heng that night and arrest the real culprit in this case. As for who this murderer is, I wonder if the Taoist chief may give me some advice?"
But when he heard that, he snorted coldly and said, "Even now, you still come to ask me who the murderer is? It is really ridiculous! This case was very clear from the beginning, and even the world knew that it was Guan Gong who appeared in the Bifu and cut off King Heng's head with a knife. Now that even Guan Gong's outfit and the Qinglong Glaive used have been found, it can be seen that this case is indeed inseparable from Guan Gong's god. As for whether the murderer is Guan Gong, for now, you just need to invite his old man out and ask him clearly in person. ”
Although the words of Deyizi were a little crazy, they also reminded everyone that General Song had already led people to find things to dress up Guan Gong in the "Fengwu Pavilion", as well as the Qinglong Yanyue Knife that matched the statue of Guan Gong in the front yard and had been lost many years ago. But in the end, these things are just props for the murderer to pretend to be Guan Gong, how can they really involve any ghosts and gods, and ask Guan Gong to come out and ask for clarification?
Xie Yixiang is becoming more and more suspicious of this son in his heart, if he wants to say that his words broke the emperor's intentions, it can also be said that he is quick to think and can see more clearly than himself and Chang Daren. But he just asked him to point out the real murderer, but he was just making a temptation, and the crazy sentence he replied clearly meant that he knew a lot of inside information about the case. If this mysterious boy is just an outsider, how can he know more than everyone present?
However, at this moment, Xie Yixiang knew that none of the people in the front hall who were related to this case could be trusted, even Lord Chang and General Song could not be trusted, so this son was willing to jump out now, and he could only choose to believe in him temporarily, otherwise he would be completely isolated. At that moment, Xie Yixiang said respectfully: "Xiaodao Chief, Teacher Zhao said that on the night of the murder, there was a woman who hid in the 'Fengwu Pavilion' in Bifu and dressed up as Guan Gong, and then went to the 'Longyin Pavilion' to kill the visiting King Heng. Your so-called Guan Gong is referring to this woman who pretends to be a god?"
How do you know that Yizi suddenly asked: "Let me ask you, who is Guan Gong?" Xie Yixiang didn't understand what he meant, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and immediately said: "Guan Gong is Guan Yu, a famous general in the Shu Han period of the Three Kingdoms, his original character is immortal, and later changed to Yunchang, he is a person from Xie County, Hedong County, who has followed Uncle Liu Huang all his life to make meritorious contributions, and shocked China, but in the end he was defeated and killed by the enemy in Jingzhou. After his death, he was gradually deified by the people, and he was called 'Guan Gong', or 'Grandpa Guan'......" Nade Yizi was already impatient to hear it, and asked again: "According to you, Guan Gong is a person, but that rat who dares to be a rat?" Xie Yixiang was puzzled and blurted out: "Naturally not." ”
Nade Yizi said lightly: "Now everyone in the world says that it is Guan Gong who appeared and killed the emperor's eleventh prince, King Heng, if this case is really Guan Gong's doing, he will naturally not deny it; So as long as you can invite Guan Gong out and ask clearly, everything will come to light. ”
Hearing him mention again that he wanted to invite Guan Gong out, everyone present was a little inexplicable, could it be that this strange young man under the cloak turned out to be a madman? Then General Song couldn't hold back even more, and sneered: "To solve this case, why do you need to ask Guan Gong? Just invite King Yama out and ask him to find King Heng's ghost to ask, and naturally you will know who the murderer who killed him that night is." ”
Song Shenjiang was naturally joking, but no one present could laugh. Na De Yizi said coldly: "How easy is it to invite the king of Hades, but it is easier to invite Guan Gong now. Just kneel down and kowtow to the statue of Guan Gong in the front yard, call out 'Grandpa Guan', and ask his old man to come out to explain the murder in the house, and he will definitely show up. ”
When everyone heard him say it, they couldn't help but sigh secretly, it seemed that there was really something wrong with this young man's brain. Xie Yixiang heard it in a fog, and hurriedly opened his mouth to ask, who knew that the son seemed to be asleep again, but he didn't pay attention to Xie Yixiang's question. Nabi Changxiao immediately shouted: "Where did this little madman come from, he actually dared to come to my Bi Mansion to spread wildness!" That Chang couldn't help but ask: "Miss Xie San, is this friend of yours joking with us, or is it his brain...... Is his thinking different from that of ordinary people?"
You must know that since King Heng's head rolled out of Ouyang Cha's medicine box, Xie Yixiang's heart has already been in a mess, and now she has to find out the real culprit who killed King Heng, she has no clue at all, and she doesn't know where to start. Although this is ridiculous, recalling that he did take himself out of the "Broken Delusion Array" in the woods last night, it can be seen that although this mysterious boy likes to pretend to be a ghost, he still has some real skills. Now he just wants to kneel and kowtow to the statue of Guan Gong in the front yard, if he is joking, then he should worship Guan Gong's soul, what does it matter how many kowtows?
At that moment, Xie Yixiang no longer hesitated, walked straight to the threshold of the door of the front hall, and knelt down with a "poof" outside the door, just facing the statue of Guan Gong in the front yard. She said sincerely: "Emperor Guan's grandfather is heroic, and the little woman Xie Yixiang kowtows." Now that the murder of King Heng happened in Bifu, everyone in the world is rumored to be the murderer of Emperor Guan's grandfather, as for the truth in this, I and other mortals are at a loss and helpless. Just as the Taoist chief said, if this case is really committed by Emperor Guan's grandfather, your old man will naturally dare to act boldly, and if it is not done by Emperor Guan's grandfather, then others will not be allowed to slander your old man's prestige. Therefore, I also asked Grandpa Guan to show the Holy Spirit and tell the key. ”
After that, she really kowtowed to the statue of Guan Gong, and then kowtowed two more, making up three rings. When she raised her head, she saw that the statue of Guan Gong in the front yard was still standing motionless, holding the long knife that Bi Wuzong used before his death, and there was no change in his body.
Xie Yixiang knew that he was being teased by that son, and was about to get up to ask him for an explanation, but he heard a man's voice suddenly come from the front hall behind him, and shouted: "Ignorant child, dare to disturb me!" The sound sounded like a bell, almost resounding throughout the entire Bifu.
