"Oh? Are you the son of the lantern criminal?"

Emperor Jing's eyes narrowed slightly, and the fatigue he had felt just now seemed to have gradually dissipated. He straightened his body and spoke with dignity.

"The Cao Min is... no, no! The Cao Min's father is not the real criminal!"

As soon as You Zining heard the word "criminal", her thin little body trembled slightly, and her face turned pale again. She first responded, and then immediately retorted, as if she mustered up great courage, even if she was killed

Even if the calamity of the head befalls this body, he will not hesitate to do so.

She squeezed her tightly clenched fists, and her knuckles rubbed back and forth on the ground, leaving bloody traces.

Lu Chengfeng's little heart darkened along with her face. When he saw the blood stains on the ground, he felt even more heartbroken. He couldn't help but take a step forward, bowed and saluted, and shouted loudly:

"Your Majesty! There is indeed a hidden secret in this case! We can testify!"

"Oh? Do you want to hear it?"

The emperor said calmly, with a thought-provoking smile on his face.

"On the night of the Lantern Festival, after the large dragon and phoenix lanterns were burned, I immediately rushed to the scene, inspected the remains of the lanterns, and interviewed the people present. They all said that that night, the fire came from below.

, what suddenly ignited was a blue flame, burning very fast, and in a short time the lantern was burned down to only an empty black skeleton."

Lu Chengfeng tried his best to recall what happened that night and recounted it.

Seeing Emperor Jing narrowing his eyes and listening carefully, he continued:

"That kind of blue flame is extremely rare! There is still a blue-purple scar on the dragon's foot and chicken's claw of the wreckage, shaped like lightning! It's extremely weird! Ordinary fire weapons will never be able to burn this.

Such unique purple lightning comes!"

"There is such a strange fire in the world? What is it called purple lightning? What is that?"

He Xuzhi couldn't help but interject and asked.

"No, no! That strange fire is not called Purple Lightning. As far as I know, there is only one mysterious technique in the world that can have such weird power! That is the fire control technique of the Northern Eagle!"

In Lu Chengfeng's last sentence, he emphasized the emphasis and raised his tone.

"North end country? The eagle never stops?"

In You Zining's heart, a wave of loneliness and anger surged through her blood. She suppressed it, looked at Lu Chengfeng, and asked.

Lu Chengfeng nodded silently, giving him an encouraging and comforting look.

Emperor Jing raised his right eyebrow

, wrinkled slightly again, suddenly took a breath of cold air from his nose, and asked with a livid face:

"But Ying Bubo, one of the four great masters in the world?"

"Returning to the emperor, this matter is caused by the spy sent by Beiduan to deliberately cause trouble to our court! As for the eagle that never stops, he established the Huolei Sect in the Beiduan Kingdom, which is also a major sect in the world. This matter is the Huolei Sect.

The disciple deliberately set fire! That night, he also deliberately sent charlatans to roam the streets and spread rumors and rumors! His lies were misleading to the public!"

Lu Chengfeng made an impassioned speech, and in an instant, everyone in the Gongyuan was excited!

Everyone present, ranging from imperial officials to unknown officials, including tribute students from all over the world, were all whispering to each other. Everyone was scolding the people of Beiduan for their misery, and some were chanting for the wanderer who was the top scholar in this department.

Unfair:

"The traitor at the north end! You are determined to destroy me, Dajing!"

"These barbarians from the north cannot defeat us on the battlefield, yet they have come up with such insidious and cunning tricks!"

"In a barbaric land, civilization has disappeared! Don't blame us Jingren for calling them barbarians!"

"If that's the case! It's not because the craftsmanship of their lanterns is bad! I think this Jinke family is really unjust!"

"Isn't it true? Have you learned all the criminal laws of Dajing in vain? The case of dragon and phoenix presenting auspiciousness is related to the country. If it is burned overnight, the crime may be repeated?"

"Then if this case is confirmed, wouldn't the current number one scholar become the shortest-lived number one scholar in our dynasty?"

"How pitiful and pitiful!"

"It's no wonder that he would rather stop the emperor alone than complain about injustice!"

…

Emperor Jing was obviously a little displeased and glanced at Feng Xianfu.

I heard Eunuch Feng swinging his fly whisk, raising his voice and shouting:

"Quiet! Silence! The Holy Master is here! Who dares to make noise again!"

The Gongyuan, which was noisy and impetuous like a pot of boiling water, finally gradually became quiet.

It was like the ground that had just been scalding hot from the sun on a summer day, but finally returned to a quiet coolness after nightfall.

The air was suddenly too quiet, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

You Ziyin had already hunched over, listening to people's chatter and endured it in silence for a long time.

At this moment, she finally raised her face again, her eyes were red, as if she might exert force at any time, she gritted her teeth, forbearing and calmly, and said:

"Your Majesty, the reason why ordinary people insist that my father is wronged is not

It’s empty talk, but the common people have evidence!”

"Send it forward!"

Emperor Jing still cherishes words like gold and the power of heaven like thunder, saying.

"Okay! Could you please help me pick up the package I carry with me?"

You Ziyin looked around him and begged.

"I'll go!"

Without saying a word, Lu Chengfeng stood up without hesitation and volunteered to find the package for Wanderer Yin.

According to the rules and conventions of Dajing, after Gongyuan candidates pass through Longmen, all the packages they carry with them will be collected by Gongyuan officials and taken care of. They will be replaced by a small bamboo basket with no cover and cover, which is also in a unified style, and will be distributed to the candidates uniformly.

Only necessary pens, inks and inkstones are allowed to be placed in the bamboo basket.

This is also done to prevent fraud.

"Sir, why bother you to go there in person for such a small matter? Why don't you let me send someone to do it for you?"

The young official in green robe from before said with an apologetic smile on his face.

"No need!"

Lu Chengfeng rolled his eyes at the man unceremoniously and sneered in his heart, "This man again, he is really troublesome!"

The green-robed official failed to flatter him, but instead slapped him on the horse's leg. He was so angry that he had no place to vent his anger. He pointed at the small officials standing beside him and said angrily:

"You! Go and lead the way!"

"Yes!" The little pawn respectfully accepted the order, quickly trotted to Lu Chengfeng's side, bent half of his waist, and led the way diligently:

"My lord, please come this way!"

Lu Chengfeng nodded and smiled at him to thank him, then turned around and asked You Ziyin, saying:

"I wonder what the evidence for the number one scholar in this subject is? Can you tell me that you know it so I can get it alone?"

As Lu Chengfeng spoke, he winked at You Ziyin subtly, naturally and understandingly. Anyone who didn't know that the two of them were friends would never notice it.

The reason why Lu Chengfeng had to do it himself was because he was afraid that when others went through You Zining's package, they would inadvertently find any clues about her identity.

For example, a hair comb used by a woman, or any soft object that a woman likes.

Furthermore, how can one allow those stinky men with dirty hands and feet to mess around with the personal package of their sweetheart?

Lu Chengfeng secretly laughed in his heart, where did this small official come from? He was so stupid!
