Chapter Forty-Five: A Chance Encounter with Jun Shocking
Bai Xuanyue walked towards the Octagonal Pavilion, and the Red Sky Little Flying Tiger hung on Bai Xuanyue's shoulder, looking at Jun Jinglan with round eyes.
Outside the octagonal pavilion, Bai Xuanyue didn't move forward, and saluted unfamiliarly: "Bai Xuanyue has seen the emperor!"
If it was just the first time they met, Bai Xuanyue would definitely sigh that Jun Jinglan had a good skin that was intolerable to heaven, so she couldn't help but step forward to talk.
But at that time in the Ming Shang Palace, the handsome emperor in front of him was a fox demon who killed people without blinking, like a beast, without humanity at all, and almost killed her.
For the bloody scene before, Bai Xuanyue still had lingering palpitations, and she just wanted to stay away from this emperor.
"White girl, excuse me!come in and sit down!" Jun Jinglan stretched out his hand and pointed to the stone bench opposite.
He wore a simple black robe today, with no embroidery and no accessories, but the coercion on his body did not diminish in the slightest.
The face is not as pale as in the past, although the complexion is not as ruddy as ordinary people, but there is no sign of disease, and with this black dress, the skin is as white as jade, handsome and abnormal.
"Could the emperor be ...... Did you come to Baizhu Mountain to arrest me?" Bai Xuanyue was unmoved, raising her eyes and secretly looking at Jun's shocked expression.
"Oh?"
The corners of Jun's mouth twitched slightly, and the tips of his lips curled up in a good-looking arc, "White girl, why do you say this?"
"This road is the only way for the Star Moon Palace, the emperor doesn't go to the early dynasty, he came to guard this road early in the morning, isn't he here to arrest me, is there any other reason?" Bai Xuanyue replied.
"This road does not only lead to the Star and Moon Palace, the National Teacher also lives in this White Bamboo Mountain, I came here to thank the National Teacher in person, but I am a little tired from coming here, so I came to the pavilion to rest.
When I saw you coming, I remembered something related to you, and wanted to ask the girl. ”
Jun Jinglan wore a white jade ring on his middle finger, and there was a crisp crashing sound with the fingers that knocked on the stone table.
Invisibly, it added a sense of oppression to Bai Xuanyue.
Something to do with her?
Bai Xuanyue suddenly remembered the murder of the noble concubine, and she was the murderer who was identified in this matter!
thought that he had become a disciple of the national teacher, but this matter had already turned the page, Bai Xuanyue suddenly felt that she was actually a little simple, the emperor's woman died, how could the emperor let her go easily?
Others can still hinder the power of the national teacher and dare not speak up, but the emperor's authority is higher than that of the national teacher!
Bai Xuanyue raised her head vigilantly: "I really didn't kill the concubine!"
"As for what you said, it reminds me.
When I woke up, I heard that my beloved concubine had died a terrible death, and all the essence of her body had been sucked out, like a white bone, and her heart and clothes had been hollowed out, leaving a bloody hole......"
When Jun Jinglan said this, he paused deliberately, looked up at Bai Xuanyue, and pointed to the stone bench opposite, "Sit down and listen!"
Sure enough, the high-sounding thing is to go to the national teacher to thank you, but it turned out that she didn't come to settle accounts with her after the autumn?
The complicated emotions in Bai Xuanyue's eyes flashed by, and she sat down along the place Jun Jinglan pointed to.
Since she mentioned this matter, then she should make it clear, she is not afraid of shadows, and what she has not done, don't want to rely on her!
Chitian Little Flying Tiger felt Bai Xuanyue's emotions, his pupils gradually narrowed, and his pitch-black pupils gradually turned brown, staring at Jun Jinglan with hostile eyes.
Bai Xuanyue's expression was awe-inspiring, and she said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, I didn't kill your concubine, if I am a murderer, why do I have to take my heart to my own room and wait to be discovered?"
"It's not impossible, after all, you only had the only way to 'die' at that time, and since you have to die, why should you care about anything else?
What's more, judging from the death of the noble concubine, it must have been done by the goblin. ”
Jun Jinglan's hand knocked on the stone table suddenly, and continued to speak in an undulating voice: "And you are the only one in the palace......"
"Your Majesty, what you said is not right, you seem to have forgotten something. Bai Xuanyue meant something.
If it is said that night, there is not only one demon in the palace.
"Shut up!"
Jiang Hong, who was listening, hurriedly scolded when he heard this, squinted his phoenix eyes, and glared at Bai Xuanyue.
"What??, deliberately covering up?" Bai Xuanyue raised her eyebrows.
"The white girl can ignore him and have something to say. Jun Jinglan glanced at Jiang Hong and motioned him not to speak.
"On that day, the emperor demonized and killed two guards, these Jiang Gonggong and Master Yun are human witnesses.
Maybe the death of the noble concubine was done by the emperor himself, but you don't remember it. ”
As soon as these words came out, the surroundings were empty, and only the sound of bamboo leaves being blown by the wind could be heard.
Jun was silent for a long time, and then said: "Jiang Hong! The crime of bullying the king is unforgivable, you can tell me whether what the white girl said is true." ”
"The Emperor's ......"
Jiang Hong's face was vague, as if he didn't want to mention the matter, and changed his head: "On the night when your concubine Niangniang was killed, you were unconscious, there were heavy guards outside the Ming Shang Palace, and I didn't see you leave the Ming Shang Palace, and the national teacher was also sick for you in the Ming Shang Palace, so it was impossible for you to kill your concubine Niangniang." ”
Jun was shocked with a smile in his eyes and asked, "White girl, are you satisfied with this explanation?"
"What is the explanation for the emperor's demonization and killing of two guards that day? Could it be that in the eyes of the emperor, the life of the noble concubine is the life, and the life of the guard is not the life?"
Bai Xuanyue was very dissatisfied with Jiang Hong's evasion, and she didn't expect the emperor to keep silent about the killing of the two guards.
When Jiang Hong heard this, his face suddenly darkened, and he hurriedly opened his mouth and explained to the monarch: "Your Majesty, at that time, you took the elixir of the national teacher, and the sudden appearance of the demon form was because of the side effects of the medicine, so you lost your mind, and it was their blessing that the two guards died for the emperor." ”
Jun nodded thoughtfully: "Order, bury those two guards, posthumously crown them martyrs, and allocate five hundred taels from the treasury to their families!"
Bai Xuanyue frowned, carefully recalled the scene of that day, Jun Jinglan was indeed delirious at that time, and the death of the two guards could not be completely blamed on him, on the contrary, the culprit who caused the death of the two guards was herself.
Jun's voice came from overhead, interrupting Bai Xuanyue's train of thought.
"As for the White Maiden......"
Jun Jinglan stood up, straightened his clothes, and said, "I will go and ask the national teacher for an explanation!"
"Wait a minute!" Bai Xuanyue suddenly stood up, apparently flipping the Red Sky Little Flying Tiger to the ground.
The Red Sky Little Flying Tiger snorted in a low voice: Stupid woman......
Jun raised his eyes in shock: "What else is the matter with the white girl?"
"I don't know if the emperor knows that there is a black cat in the palace?"
