Li Xiu sighed: "Where is the assassination of the emperor? When Mr. Lin Liu came, the emperor had already been away for a long time."
This sentence is like pouring a ladle of cold water into a hot oil pan and it explodes immediately.
The people buzzed and talked a lot.
Bailiyuan snorted coldly: "Lin Chu, you are really good at it. You can even bribe Li Xiu!"
"Don't insult this old slave!"
Before Lin Chu responded, Li Xiu stiffened her neck.
"The old slave has done something wrong, but it does not mean that the old slave is a fool who never knows how to get back."
He sniffed and suddenly his eyes turned red: "This old slave has served the emperor all his life, but he couldn't resist the temptation to confuse right and wrong, allowing the real culprit to go unpunished, and almost killed the hero."
Glittering tears rolled down his cheeks. Li Xiu beat her chest and screamed: "Old slave...he committed a heinous crime and will bear the blame even if he dies!"
He was filled with righteous indignation and burst into tears. The scene was silent for a while, and everyone was shocked to death by his beating on the chest.
A man of such an age can be so cruel. So, are you sure his tears are not caused by pain?
"Eunuch Li." Lin Chu raised his eyebrows: "Old people should not get too excited."
The mixture of sadness and anger can indeed arouse empathy. But...such exaggerated acting is a bit...awkward!
Li Xiu stopped crying, wiped her tears carelessly, and raised her head.
"My lords, I will forgive you for coming here today. Your Majesty, please take a step slowly before I come!"
Whoosh!
No one would have thought that while Li Xiu was talking, he suddenly slammed into the pillar of the court hall.
"ah!"
Amidst the exclamations of everyone, a stone was as fast as lightning and hit the big hole behind Li Xiu in the blink of an eye.
Poof! Bang!
Li Xiu's body suddenly stiffened when the stone hit him, and when he was about to touch the pillar, he fell softly to the ground and gasped for breath.
In the hearing room, Lin Zhi put away his long jade fingers and looked coldly: "When the case is still unclear, how can you be allowed to seek death and survive like this?"
It took a long time for Li Xiu to get up from the ground. Qiqi Ai Ai wiped her tears and said: "Sect Master Lin, why did you bother to save the old slave? The old slave deserves death."
"If you want to die, you have to speak clearly first."
Yu Zifu had a dark face and started to yell in a hurry. The most annoying person was always looking for death and life. If he just wanted to die, he would be able to solve the problem.
Are there any living people in this world?
"Let me ask you, what did you mean when you said the real culprit was at large? If Xiao Chu was framed, who was the real culprit?"
Li Xiu took a deep breath: "The emperor is in his prime. Although he has been on the sick bed in the past, he definitely should not die like this."
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... he was poisoned to death!"
"What?!"
The crowd was in an uproar.
Yu Zifu suddenly stood up and looked at Li Xiu, his whole body trembling. He completely forgot about the chief judge Fu Ranjiu.
Fu Ran lowered his head for a long time and was secretly happy. He didn't mind at all that Yu Zihu had become the center of the trial.
"Tell me clearly, what's going on?" Yu Zifu shouted angrily.
"The emperor has been very angry recently and often cannot sleep at night. When night fell on the day of the accident, the regent personally sent a bowl of lotus seed soup over, saying it was to clear the emperor's heart."
Li Xiu paused for a moment, glanced at Bailiyuan quickly, and quickly looked away. As if remembering something frightening and unforgettable, fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
"The emperor drank the lotus seed soup and soon... then..."
His voice stopped suddenly, he raised his hands and cried loudly.
"Do you really mean what you say?"
Yu Zifu's voice was low and his breath was unstable: "Do you know how much weight your words carry?"
