Because the death of the lady brought such a huge blow to them, to the alliance, and even to the soldiers below.
In that year, Emperor Zun almost disappeared and ignored political affairs. At that time, it was even rumored that Emperor Zun was deeply affected by his wife's death and was unable to recover.
If it were not for the elders and a few seniors taking charge of the overall situation, I am afraid that the last hope of mankind would really be extinct.
It wasn't until a year later that Emperor Zun appeared, revitalized the alliance, and led the Lion Iron Army to officially begin to exterminate the ghoul army, which was what later generations called the Battle of Recapture.
They repelled the army of corpses and regained the homeland of mankind, which led to the revival of mankind today.
"It's hard to put it into words, but in short..." Ling Xuewei thought for a while, "The reason why I'm like this now must be related to my ability."
"Ability? Could it be the Pure Lotus Glass Fire?" Yan Beisheng quickly reacted, "It is rumored that the Pure Lotus Glass Fire has the power of Nirvana. Is it true?"
Yan Beisheng and Jing Jie'an looked shocked again.
Is there really such a magical power in this world? Can it bring people back to life?
Then everything will be explained.
Ling Xuewei's current change should also be caused by the power of nirvana.
"But why is there no spiritual energy fluctuation in the girl's body?"
"Only temporary."
Ling Xuewei didn't explain too much, and Yan Beisheng also realized that he had asked too many questions, so Jing Jiian next to him changed the subject, "Girl, over at Haotian Sect..."
"When I opened my eyes, I appeared in Xingluo Forest. It was the ancient master of Haotian Sect who saved me..."
Ling Xuewei briefly told what happened.
"Right now, I need your help."
Yan Beisheng and Jing Jie'an looked at each other, stood up, and knelt down on one knee, "I will listen to Madam (Empress)'s instructions."
…
After a stick of incense.
Yan Beisheng and Jing Jiean came out.
Soon, Ling Xuewei also walked out and returned to the third floor.
As soon as she came up, she saw Xuezhi walking towards her in a hurry, "Miss, where have you been? It's easy for me to find you. My wife and the sect master are worried about you!"
"Go out and get some air. I'm lost. Go back."
"Yes, girl, you should bring your slave with you next time you go out, in case the slave can't find you again..."
When she returned to the private room, Ling Xuewei found that only the Shen family was left in the private room. The ancient sect master and Nanfeng Jue were no longer there. It turned out that she had gone to the main hall. Shen family did not ask her where she had gone, so the two of them were very confused.
As soon as we got downstairs, everyone was seated in the hall.
The person sitting at the top is naturally Yan Beisheng.
One on the left and right is a fat man, and the other is Nanfeng Jue.
Ling Xuewei and the others were sitting next to the female relatives. She glanced around the audience and soon saw Jing Jie'an, who nodded at her from a distance.
Ling Xuewei withdrew her gaze and sat quietly in her seat.
She could feel the gazes falling on her from time to time, including those from above.
Ling Xuewei didn't look sideways. There were people around her who wanted to talk to her, but she always looked indifferent. After a few words, the other party found it boring and stopped chatting with her.
At this time, Yan Beisheng above began to speak.
The hall gradually became quiet.
"Thank you all for visiting us. It's a great honor for Yan..."
It was a scene-like speech that was done in a proper way, without losing the etiquette of the Eastern Region, and at the same time, it expressed the welcome to the distinguished guests...
But at this moment, a sudden change occurred!
He suddenly convulsed and fell down.
Wow!
The crisp sound of cups breaking on the table woke everyone up!
"What's going on?!"
"City Lord!"
…
Ling Xuewei's expression also changed!
The people closest to Yan Beisheng have already surrounded him!
Seeing black and blue color quickly gushing out from his face, black blood began to pour out of his mouth...
"It's poison! The city lord has been poisoned!"
"Who is it? How dare you poison the city lord?!"
"Someone is coming!"
…
In an instant, countless people poured in and surrounded the venue!
"Someone wants to poison the city lord. Everyone present please stay where you are. If anyone dares to make any move, he will be captured immediately!"
The person who spoke was the second head of the Yan family, Yan Beixiong.
His face was ashen and he shouted for the medical officer to come in.
Soon, the medical officer appeared.
"The Lord of the City is indeed poisoned, but as for what kind of poison it is... I am too old and incompetent to diagnose it."
The medical officer was trembling with fear and sweating.
"Trash! You can't even diagnose the poison, so what use are you!"
"Second Master, please don't get angry. Right now, we still need to find a way to detoxify the city lord and find out who is behind the poison..."
"That's right, invite the pharmacists and doctors from all the pharmacies in the city. I don't believe that no one can cure this poison! Go down and seal all entrances and exits, check for suspicious persons, and take down any suspicious persons immediately!"
"yes!"
The atmosphere suddenly became tense!
People outside watched countless soldiers suddenly appear and block all entrances and exits, wondering why.
"What happened?"
"Don't know?"
"Where did so many people come from? Look over there, they seem to be the people around the city lord?"
…
Soon the soldiers came over, and the leader stepped forward, "If we find someone poisoning the city lord, everyone stays where they are and is not allowed to move around, otherwise, they will be killed!"
"What? Poison the city lord?"
"The city lord was killed?"
The crowd was in commotion and couldn't believe it.
In the hall.
The city lord's confidants were interrogating the people below, and the medical officers quickly found out that the poison on the city lord's body should have been inflicted half an hour ago.
"Half an hour ago? Go and check immediately! Who was near the city lord half an hour ago!"
Half an hour ago...
Ling Xuewei frowned slightly when she heard this.
For some reason, I felt an ominous feeling in my heart.
"I reported back to the second master, they have been checked, and there is nothing suspicious."
"Nothing suspicious? How is that possible? By the way, Deputy Lieutenant Jing called my eldest brother out half an hour ago. The time... coincides with the time when my eldest brother was poisoned!"
"Lieutenant Jing?"
Everyone subconsciously looked at the corner, and Jing Jiian stepped forward, "It is true that my subordinates have important matters to leave with the City Lord, but I have never done any harm to the City Lord."
"What evidence do you have? Prove that you didn't do it? That time was exactly the time when my eldest brother was poisoned, but he left with you. Only you had this time to poison your eldest brother. Tell me! Did you do it to your eldest brother?"
poison!"
"Second Master, don't jump to conclusions so quickly before the matter is fully investigated. Deputy Lieutenant Jing is a member of the military and a decent man. He has no reason to poison the city lord."
"Who else can there be besides him? Someone, take him down!"
"Wait a minute!"
The confidant stopped the people below and walked down immediately, "Deputy Lieutenant Jing, was there a third person present when you were with the city lord?"
Jing Jiian's eyes flashed slightly.
"If someone else can prove your innocence, that's okay."
Jing Jie'an's character is still clear to his confidants. What's more, the city lord also admires Deputy Lieutenant Jing very much. What's more, he is a member of the army and the person responsible for the safety of this banquet. Why should he do this to him?
