This was actually unfavorable to the Qin court. The court also had a competitive relationship with the Taoist Lei Sect.
The Great Qin court has always wanted to reduce the strength of these large sects, but those powerful secret cultivation methods have always been in the hands of a few sects, and the court can only obtain a few secret methods.
Therefore, we have to rely on these large sects.
But the imperial court is also on guard against rebellion by these large sects, and has been balancing the forces of all parties.
It would undoubtedly be of great benefit to bring someone like Meng Xing, who knew the art of formations, back to the imperial court, or to put it under the control of Princess Yangping herself.
Princess Yangping was thinking about how to take Meng Xing into her own hands.
Not long after, Meng Xing came back and sat down again.
Princess Yangping stared at him for a while, making him a little confused.
[1. Ignore Princess Yangping’s gaze.]
[Two, say to Princess Yangping: "Your Highness, do you like me? If you like me, I will stay here tonight as your consort and serve you."
[Three, take action immediately, stretch out your dirty hands, and tease the princess.]
Meng Xing: "..."
I am seeking death, so I would say these things to be a man's favorite and do things like teasing the princess before the other party takes a fancy to me.
After choosing the first option, Meng Xing picked up the tea cup and took a sip, ignoring her stare.
[The mission has been completed, and you will receive a random reward: Hide 1]
Zhuo Lingyan glanced at him. Although her teeth were itching with hatred and she couldn't help but want to bite him, she still looked like a fairy, with a calm expression and an unparalleled figure. From a distance,
But don't play with it.
The three of them chatted casually for a while and drank tea for a while, but then they heard noisy sounds coming from outside.
Princess Yangping frowned and said to the maid standing next to her: "Go and see what's going on."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the original guard running in and said hurriedly: "Princess, the chief arrester of Jingzhao Mansion and the people from Soul Angel Yamen are here, saying that they want to take Mr. Meng for interrogation."
"Didn't I say that Mr. Meng couldn't be the one who killed Ding Hai and them? Why do they still come to take him?" Princess Yangping said with some displeasure.
"They said that Mr. Meng is extremely suspicious and must be arrested and interrogated according to the law. What the princess said is against the rules. They still need to interrogate him clearly before they can be sure," the guard said.
"These people are bullying others too much!" Princess Yangping was a little angry. She stood up and said, "Let's go out and have a look together."
She glanced at Meng Xing and saw that he was very calm, as if the matter had nothing to do with him, and he looked more calm than she did.
Zhuo Lingyan knew even more clearly that this could not be done by Meng Xing, because he slept in the Zhenwu Sect thousands of miles away last night. How could he kill someone in the capital?
The three of them walked out of the princess's mansion together, only to see the chief constable of Jingzhao Mansion and a silver-level soul angel negotiating with the guards of the princess's mansion. Behind them stood a dozen police officers and bronze-level soul angels.
Meng Xing took a look and found that no one in Jingzhao Mansion knew him, but that silver-level soul angel was Xing Yixuan, who had a conflict with him and had been trying to kill him yesterday.
Xing Yixuan also saw Meng Xing at a glance, murderous intent flashed through his eyes, and then looked at Zhuo Lingyan and Princess Yangping standing next to him, but there was a hint of surprise and greed in his eyes. The man he wanted to kill yesterday
Meng's guy is really lucky to know two such beautiful women, one of whom is a princess.
"Your Highness Princess! Xing Yixuan, who holds the rank of silver-level soul angel, is working with Mr. Zhong of Jingzhao Mansion to catch the criminals who killed three students from the Imperial College."
A humble and courteous look.
Princess Yangping said calmly: "I have already said that Mr. Meng Xing cannot be the criminal who killed three students from the Imperial Academy. Why are you still here to take them?"
Xing Yixuan said: "Your Royal Highness, yesterday this person had a conflict with a student of the Imperial Academy and a student of Qingfeng Academy. We cannot rule out suspicion. Only through a clear interrogation can we determine the case and eliminate this person's suspicion."
Princess Yangping said coldly: "I have made it very clear that yesterday there was a conflict between the Imperial College and some students from Qingfeng Academy. In order to resolve the conflict, I personally took Master Meng Xing to confront them. Who is the real one?"
The poet's author."
"Mr. Meng Xing originally didn't want to pay attention to these shameless people who plagiarized other people's poems. I asked him to do it. Now you actually say that he has conflicts with these people. This has become my responsibility. It's because
It was me who made him a suspect. If I don’t care about this matter, wouldn’t it mean that I am unkind and unjust?”
Xing Yixuan cupped his hands and said: "Beizhi understands what the princess means, and is just interrogating Meng Xing. This is a necessary step, because Beizhi and others cannot let go of any suspicion, which leads to the prisoner being free and easy after killing someone, regardless of the Qin court.
law."
"Well, I will go with you to the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen in person to see how Mr. Fu Yin interrogated Mr. Meng. I want to see if you want Mr. Meng to get rid of suspicion, or if you are deliberately trying to beat him into submission.
Just find a scapegoat to cause trouble."
"This..." Xing Yixuan didn't expect that the princess would be so protective of Meng Xing. In this way, it would be difficult to kill him. There must be conclusive evidence. If he kills easily, he will definitely offend the princess. In the future, under Soul Angel
The government office is also struggling to move forward.
"Damn! I actually let this guy find a backer!" He was hating in his heart.
"Let's go! Go to Jingzhao Mansion." Princess Yangping said with a cold expression.
Soon, a guard pulled a top-notch luxurious golden nanmu carriage. Princess Yangping and Zhuo Lingyan got on the carriage. Meng Xing rode a horse alone, followed by the maids and guards, and the group headed for Jingzhao Mansion in a mighty manner.
go.
Xing Yixuan and Mr. Zhong had no choice but to follow the princess carriage. Xing Yixuan was so jealous that his eyes almost killed people.
Xing Yixuan sent people to search for news about Meng Xing. He accidentally learned that he was related to the murder case in the Imperial College this morning, so he took the initiative to ask for help and went with the chief arrester of Jingzhao Mansion to arrest him.
Murder cases in the capital are also under the jurisdiction of the Soul Angel Yamen. Things that the Jingzhao Mansion does not dare to take care of, the Soul Angel Yamen can take care of, and its power is much greater.
As long as the guilt is determined, the Soul Angel Yamen can directly kill people and then report them. The so-called beheading first and reporting later.
However, the officials of Jingzhao Prefecture cannot directly kill people when arresting people. They need to go through layers of interrogation and the evidence is conclusive before execution can be carried out.
This is why Xing Yixuan dared to attack Meng Xing directly outside Soul Angel's Yamen yesterday. After he killed the other party, he could fabricate a crime at will. Ordinary people would die when they died, and there would be no way to redress their grievances.
Half an hour later, the group arrived at Jingzhao Mansion. Zhao Fuyin of Jingzhao Mansion immediately went to the court for interrogation, and asked the princess to sit aside and watch.
Meng Xing was a little speechless. From his past life to the present, this was the first time he had encountered this kind of litigation in court, apart from seeing it on TV.
"Who is there?" Zhao Fuyin patted the gavel tree and asked.
"Zhenwuzong disciple, Meng Xing!" Meng Xing said with cupped hands.
Da Qin treats monks who practice the system the same as scholars taking imperial examinations. They do not need to kneel and can be interrogated standing up.
"Last night, Ding Haishi, a student of the Imperial College, and three other people died in a rented house. Where were you at that time?" Zhao Fuyin asked.
"I stayed overnight in the newly purchased house. Because I had an appointment with the princess to meet today, I went to the princess's mansion this morning." Meng Xing said.
