Chapter 147: Jie, Old Guy, Doesn't Look Like a Good Guy
"Your Majesty, the Governor of Wushan County said, Daohong, to see your Majesty!" His voice was loud and full of energy.
The main hall became quiet, watching a dozen people from Wushan County paying homage.
Emperor Shu waved his hand casually and asked a few people to stand up and speak, but they did not obey. Sheriff Yan knelt on the ground and raised the fold in his hand above his head:
"Your Majesty, you must seek justice for the more than 20,000 lives that were unjustly killed."
The old eunuch came down slowly, took the zhezi from Governor Yan's hand, and then passed it to the Emperor of Shu.
Sheriff Yan knelt on the ground, touched his head to the ground, and burst into tears:
"Your Majesty, I am writing a letter to impeach Prince Jing! Prince Meng Yuanqi of Jing, for his own selfish desires, united with Shuxianmen Shentu City to refine the evil soul-eating beads and practice the devil's way. He opened the Zhennan Pass barrier without authorization and attracted the monsters of Ghost Mother Mountain.
As a result, 20,000 monks in Juxian Town were killed by monsters!"
"This move is outraged by both humans and gods, and it is intolerable to the laws of heaven..."
"What?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible."
Wow - the whole place suddenly burst into exclamations, everyone widened their eyes, looked at Governor Yan in astonishment, and then looked at the protagonist of the incident, King Jing Meng Yuanqi!
Since ancient times, evil spirits have been tolerated by the world, and everyone has to kill them.
Not to mention practicing the devil's way, which can be eliminated quickly and will be rewarded by the court.
Although Prince Jing is a bit sensual, loves curious and rare animals, and spends money lavishly, his nature is not bad, so how could he do such an unconscionable thing?
If he really did it, then even if he is Prince Jing and his brother is Emperor Shu, there will be no room for him in this world.
Besides, Prince Jing also opened the barrier of Guimu Mountain?
If this move is inappropriate, hundreds of thousands of people will die.
Emperor Shu looked at the fold in his hand and frowned, everyone was surprised for a moment.
Could it be that the evidence mentioned above is sufficient and even the Emperor of Shu found it difficult to protect King Jing?
After a moment of silence, the Emperor of Shu looked at Prince Jing: "Prince Jing, do you agree to the charges against you?"
King Jing immediately stood up, raised his hands and shouted: "I'm wronged:"
"Your Majesty, I am really unjust... In the past few months, I have been staying in the capital as my duty and have never been out. How could I go to Juxian Town and do such unscrupulous things?
?”
Sheriff Yan took a deep breath and his eyes turned red: "Your Highness Prince Jing, although you are not present, Shentu City is following His Highness's orders. Your Highness is the mastermind behind this and the real murderer!"
Prince Jing walked down the steps, looked at Commander Yan, and said calmly: "Everything must be told truthfully and with solid evidence. You can't say something that is certain once it comes into your mouth. I admit that I have communicated with Shen Tucheng in private.
, but that is only limited to the exchange of magical passages. I have never ordered Shentu City..."
In short, a brief summary of King Jing’s meaning is:
I know Shen Tucheng, but I didn't instigate him to do anything!
Prince Jing is not stupid either. If this matter is really investigated, Shen Tucheng's several visits to and from Kuishou Street cannot be hidden from others, but as long as he bites him to death and does not instruct Shen Tucheng to do anything evil, the other party will have nothing to do with him.
way.
The two sides were in a stalemate for a while.
At this time, Wei Wushuang, the envoy of the Zhou Dynasty who did not mind that the matter was serious, suddenly said: "Find that Shentu city and ask about it. You will know..."
Emperor Shu waved his hand, and the old eunuch immediately did it.
Shentu City was the red-clothed Shuxian envoy of Shuxian Gate in the capital. He was registered in the capital and was soon summoned to the palace.
The moment Shentu City stepped into the Chengqing Hall, the survivors of the Zhennanguan Battle almost couldn't hold it back and got violent and wanted to beat him up. It was this person who ordered the city gate to be closed, poisoned the wound medicine, and even stopped.
The artillery killed 20,000 cultivators at Zhennanguan Pass.
He killed a total of 23,458 lives!
Lots of blood debt!
Man and God are outraged!
"Old guy Jie, doesn't he look like a good person?"
Wei Wushuang sat on the futon, picking up the wine pot with one hand and eating the dishes with the other, pointing at Shentu City who had just entered the palace.
Lu Ximing was neither happy nor sad, neither worried nor angry, and there was no expression on his face.
But his eyes scanned back and forth among the people in Wushan. When he didn't see the person he was looking for, he said calmly: "When did you start judging people by their appearance?"
Wei Wushuang smacked his lips, waved his hand and said indifferently:
"Hey, His Majesty said that sometimes you have to trust your intuition. Didn't I feel like I was going crazy when I first saw this old guy?"
"Your Majesty said this?" Lu Ximing didn't believe it.
"Of course, I think back when I was a leading soldier in the Forbidden Army..."
"Okay, shut up and concentrate on watching the show."
Wei Wushuang shrugged angrily.
Shen Tucheng walked slowly into the hall, knelt down in the center of the hall, and knelt down: "Shen Tucheng, see you, Your Majesty!"
Emperor Shu looked at Shentu City and asked, "Why did you kill 20,000 monks in Juxian Town?"
Of course, Shentu City immediately denied it: "Replying to your Majesty, I don't have any."
Emperor Shu looked at the old eunuch beside him and ordered: "Go and check."
"Check where did Shen Tucheng go these days? Who did he meet? What did he do?"
The old eunuch immediately accepted the order. Shen Tucheng was a registered red-clothed Shuxian envoy. When traveling, he kept records of who he met and what he did.
Soon, several pages of tissue paper were handed over.
It records where Shen Tucheng has been these days and what he has done.
After seeing the whereabouts of Shentu City on the paper, he had been to Juxian Town, and had only returned to the capital in recent days. Emperor Shu immediately said angrily:
"Shentu City, you haven't done this? How do you explain this?"
Papers flew in the air and floated in front of Shen Tucheng. Shen Tucheng muttered:
"I probably drank too much that day and did it unintentionally! I can't remember."
Sheriff Yan, who was kneeling on the ground, was stunned subconsciously when he heard this rather relaxed answer, and then said sadly: "Shentu City!"
The people behind them roared angrily, regardless of the majesty of the hall:
"Shentu City! You evil thief! You will not die a happy death!"
"Shentu City, you have killed so many people, can you sleep at night? Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
"Shentu City, I'll fuck you..."
Seeing that the situation was out of control, several people became more and more excited and were about to beat up Shentu City. The little eunuch on the side quickly stopped him. But how could the weak little eunuch stop these talented people? A group of forbidden soldiers rushed in.
, held knives to several people's necks, so they didn't do anything too outrageous.
Emperor Shu angrily slapped the desk with a loud bang: "Do you recognize it or not?"
Shen Tucheng thought for a moment, confessed, and said, "I plead guilty!"
"Okay, here we come." The Emperor of Shu waved his robe and said, "Shentu City confessed to his crimes. He was taken out and immediately beheaded to accuse the souls of those monks who died tragically."
With that said, the two Imperial Guards, one on each side, were about to drag Shen Tucheng out and behead him in public.
Things happened so fast that no one had time to react.
After all, it was expected that if Shentu City had Prince Jing as its backer, he would definitely be beaten to death.
Sheriff Yan and others have also prepared sufficient physical evidence.
I just didn't expect that Shen Tucheng would not follow the routine and directly confessed.
"slow!"
Xun Yijian, who had been silent all this time, took a step across and stopped the two Imperial Guards.
The Emperor of Shu stood up and said in confusion: "What do you want to say about the great sacrifice? I won't tell you until I kill this thief. If I don't kill him, it will be difficult to comfort those heroic spirits."
Xun Yijian narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Emperor Shu.
In the past, I had underestimated the Emperor of Shu. I only knew that he was a feasting king who was only greedy for pleasure and had no great talents. But through today's incident, Xun Yijian found that the Emperor of Shu was quite intelligent and had some means. If he was allowed to
If Shen Tucheng was beheaded like this, what else could be used to convict King Jing?
"When Shentu City reveals the person behind the scenes, Your Majesty will not be too late to kill him!"
Emperor Shu was a little displeased when he saw that his plan to cut through the knot quickly was exposed, but he didn't show it on his face.
With a wave of his hand, Shentu City was brought up again.
Xun Yijian waved his hand, and four small flags appeared out of thin air:
"This is the soul summoning flag, used to refine the soul-eating beads."
Everyone heard the sound and looked over, and found that there were rather strange patterns painted on the flag, and there was a faint black air on the flag. It was undoubtedly an evil object. Xun Yijian took off another small bag from his waist and untied it.
Tie the rope and fall down.
Everyone just heard a "pop" sound, and in the center of the hall, a man tied up by Wu Hua appeared out of thin air. Xun Yijian said: "This man is the great disciple of Shentu City. He was captured by us when he was killing people and silenced him. I have destroyed his entire body for cultivation.
Cutting off the tendons of the hands and hamstrings, according to what he said, their master and disciples were following the orders of King Jing."
With that said, Sheriff Yan took out the person's confession from his sleeves and stamped it, and the eunuch handed it to the Emperor of Shu, and then displayed it in front of all the officials.
When all the officials looked at it, they were in an uproar.
All the evidence is there!
Prince Jing can’t escape!
It stands to reason that when the matter has reached this stage, even if the Emperor of Shu wants to protect him, he will not be able to protect him. With all the physical evidence and evidence, even if the King of Heaven comes, he will not be able to overturn the case.
However, at this moment, a powerful word suddenly came.
"Your Majesty, Prince Jing cares about all the people and will never have anything to do with this matter. I can testify for His Highness Prince Jing!" This chapter has been completed!
