Ning Shiqian's expression changed drastically when he saw that the person being brought into Longxiang Palace was Bai Jiuxiao, who was being pointed at by a group of imperial guards with weapons pointed at them.

how come?

How could she be captured even though she was wearing a human skin mask?

She said she would go back to the inn and wait for news about him. How could she be captured?

Bai Jiuxiao acted as if she didn't recognize him. She didn't look sideways or give him a look. Even if she was pointed at by many swords, she showed no fear. She walked in casually and stared directly at Emperor Jing.

Ning Shiqian had a thought in his mind, walked towards him, and said in surprise: "Outside the dark clouds, what are you?"

Bai Jiuxiao then turned to look at him.

Eyes facing each other.

Bai Jiuxiao said: "I don't know, they insisted on bringing me here."

When Ning Shiqian heard this, he looked at the sword-wielding guards with confusion.

Finally, he turned to look at Emperor Jing in surprise, and asked in confusion: "Father, when Heiyunwai first came to Sanglin, he shouldn't have done anything illegal or disciplinary, right?"

"Don't be nervous. I just have a few questions to ask her. It's probably because she was unwilling to cooperate that they faced each other with swords."

Ning Shiqian became even more confused: "Heiyunwai is just an orphan that Erchen took in in Great Zhao. When Erchen saw that she was good at martial arts, he stayed with him for his use. What questions can Father have to ask her?"

Emperor Jing looked at Bai Jiuxiao with an unpredictable look in his eyes.

"I received a secret letter from Da Zhao, saying that you have a lot of contacts with a woman. She saw Bai Jiuxiao's portrait in the past two days, and she found that this woman looks very similar to Bai Jiuxiao. It is possible that Bai Jiuxiao is disguised as a woman and lurking in your presence.

He is around you, but you are still in the dark, so Fei Ge sent me a letter, asking me to check it out and remind you to pay attention."

Ning Shiqian's eyes narrowed slightly, a little surprised.

Which hidden pile?

In my impression, the only one who knew about his dealings with Heiyunwai was Niannan Liyuan.

And Xue Gui had known that Hei Yunwai looked like Bai Jiuxiao, and he would not have gone overboard to contact his father.

"I asked someone to take the portrait to Sang Lin's dock and ask. The people on the dock said that they did see a woman who looked like Bai Jiuxiao getting off the boat with you, which means that this woman also came to Sang Lin, but I

No one found her in Sanglin."

Emperor Jing pointed at Bai Jiuxiao: "I was wondering if she had disguised herself? So, I wanted to summon her into the palace to find out."

Ning Shiqian pursed his lips slightly: "Father, she is definitely not Bai Jiuxiao. In Da Zhao, Erchen has dealt with Bai Jiuxiao several times and is already familiar with her. If Heiyunwai is disguised by her, Erchen

I don’t know.”

"You wear a human skin mask, right?" Emperor Jing asked Bai Jiuxiao without paying attention to what Ning Shiqian said.

Bai Jiuxiao narrowed her eyes: "Yes!"

Even now, she can't deny it.

He already has the person in his hands, and he can find out if he lets someone investigate.

"The mask was given to her by Erchen. Because she looked like Bai Jiuxiao and might cause trouble, Erchen made her wear the mask." Ning Shiqian explained immediately.

"Take off the mask and let me see." Emperor Jing motioned to Bai Jiuxiao.

Bai Jiuxiao didn't hesitate and raised his hand to tear off the human skin mask on his face.

The picturesque features are vivid.

Emperor Jing was stunned.

Several sword-wielding guards were also stunned.

They are all people who have seen Bai Jiuxiao's portrait.

It does look like.

so similar!

"Bai Jiuxiao." Emperor Jing even unconsciously clenched the armrests of the dragon chair, and his nerves became tense.

Ning Shiqian frowned: "Father, she is not Bai Jiuxiao."

"Then why do they look so similar?" Emperor Jing stared at Bai Jiuxiao for a moment.

Then he ordered loudly: "Come here, take off her clothes and see if she is a man disguised as a woman."

Bai Jiuxiao's expression changed.

Ning Shiqian was even more shocked. He didn't expect the emperor to suddenly do this, and he quickly lifted his robe and knelt down.

"Father, no, she is a woman, she is definitely a woman. If someone takes off her clothes like this, how will she be allowed to live in the future?"

Emperor Jing was silent: "Then let grandma test it."

He raised his sleeves to signal to the eunuch Wende.

Wen De nodded and ordered to call the nanny.

Ning Shiqian had no reason to refuse anymore, so he glanced at Bai Jiuxiao from the corner of his eye, fearing that she would cause trouble.

After all, she is Bai Jiuxiao. How can a superior like her accept such a thing as having her body tested?

"Beyond the dark clouds, you will go to the side hall with grandma for them to check it out later. Don't be afraid."

Bai Jiuxiao looked at him.

He also looked at her deeply.

After looking at each other for a moment, Bai Jiuxiao looked away and remained silent.

He just stood there silently and didn't do anything else.

Ning Shiqian felt slightly relieved.

The two nuns and Wen De entered the hall and knelt down to salute.

"Go to the side hall and check this person's body to see if he is a woman or a man?" Emperor Jing ordered.

The two took orders.

Bai Jiuxiao walked towards the side hall with a stern look on his face.

While waiting, Ning Shiqian raised his heart again.

Of course he knew how to check the body, both the upper body and the lower body, but he was afraid that the woman would kick the two nuns away.

Fortunately, no, the three of them came out not long after.

"Your Majesty, she is a woman."

Ning Shiqian felt relieved.

Emperor Jing's face was obviously relieved.

He raised his hand to signal the two nuns to leave.

And signaled Ning Shiqian to stand up.

"Thank you, Father." Ning Shiqian got up from the ground.

Emperor Jing looked at Bai Jiuxiao, still worried.

And the more I looked at it, the more uneasy I became.

Shouldn't the average person be scared to death when encountering such a scene?

But she has no timidity, and even has a faint aura, the kind of aura that spreads around her without doing anything.

Also, her eyes were so sharp that he didn't even dare to look at her.

How could an orphan do this?

No, the opportunity is so rare, I would rather kill three thousand by mistake than let one go!

Then he said: "It is impossible for two people to look so alike in this world. Even twin brothers, one boy and one girl, cannot look so alike. Therefore, there is only one possibility. You are Bai Jiuxiao. Bai Jiuxiao is the one who looks so similar."

It’s a woman!”

Bai Jiuxiao's pupils shrank.

Ning Shiqian's breathing stagnated.

I thought this calamity was over, but it turned out to be even more dangerous.

He didn't know if his father had really suspected that Bai Jiuxiao was a woman, or if he was just looking for such a reason. He only knew that his father was determined to kill.

"I'm not her. If I were her, would it be my turn to be humiliated here?" Bai Jiuxiao said coldly.

Ning Shiqian didn't want Bai Jiuxiao to speak, because when she spoke, no matter the content, the tone of her voice, or her posture, it all made people suspicious.

Then he quickly took over the words: "Why would my father think that a regent who monopolizes power, controls the government and approves the public, a god of war who conquers all directions and stirs up bloody storms, can be a woman?"

Emperor Jing was speechless.

Ning Shiqian continued: "If she were Bai Jiuxiao, do you think she would be willing to hibernate next to his son? Would you be willing to let my father test her body?"

Emperor Jing said nothing.

"Erchen guarantees with his life that she is not Bai Jiuxiao. Because her face was transformed into what it is now because of Erchen's face-changing technique. Originally, it was only a three-quarter image, and Erchen is

Seeing her resemblance, I came up with the idea of ​​changing her face, thinking that turning her into Bai Jiuxiao's face would definitely come in handy in the future."
