Today, the news about the rampage of monsters and beasts in Kyoto has become more and more intense, causing people to panic. The most exaggerated rumor is that Su Zhen is colluding with the monsters.
Originally this was just a rumor, but last night many people saw with their own eyes that Su Zhen was carrying a black civet cat back home. Its shape was very similar to the one that escaped in front of Jiyue Square a few days ago.
At the same time, it was also heard that Xiao Chuhong, the son of Xiao Mohan, the Luo Qi God of War, was about to return to Beijing, which triggered a new round of frenzy of discussion.
Royal Palace.
Shang Yu frame sat upright on the dragon throne, with all the civil and military officials standing below, their heads lowered and not daring to say anything.
Su Zhen adjusted her breathing and rested for only an hour before someone came to the palace. She washed up briefly and changed into clean clothes before following him into the palace.
Holding Lexu in his arms, he stood in the center of the Jinluan Palace. His figure seemed thin and frail, but he could not conceal his charming appearance and proud grace.
He raised his head and looked at Shang Yuzhen with piercing eyes, cupped his hands and clasped his fists, "Your Majesty, Su Zhen, pays homage to the Emperor!"
"Bold! You don't kneel down when you see the emperor!"
Su Zhen glanced sideways at the minister behind him who spoke out, then smiled at Shang Yu and asked, "Your Majesty, you once said that if you can catch the traitor, you don't need to kneel down to anyone! Your Majesty, you keep your words.
Can it still count?"
"Natural, but what I want is a trick, but what you and Gu Yunshu gave me was a dead civet cat. If you can't give me a reasonable explanation, it will be the crime of deceiving the emperor! This crime can punish the nine tribes.
!”
Shang Yuzhen deliberately stressed the last few words, wanting to take the opportunity to test Su Zhen's reaction.
She smiled lightly and said, "Your Majesty, can you bring up the civet that Master Gu sent back?"
Shang Yujie raised his hand, and the housekeeper lowered his head and took a few steps back, giving some instructions to the young father-in-law below.
After a while, several guards carried a wooden box into the palace, opened the lid in front of all the ministers, and revealed the dead Lesha inside.
Su Zhen sighed and said to Shang Yuzhen, "Your Majesty, there was a group of monster beasts named Tingli ten thousand years ago. They were not at fault at all, but they were sent to hell. As for the one you see before you,
, his name is Lesha. He has committed countless sins and has been reincarnated to suffer thousands of calamities. In this life, due to a combination of circumstances, he was led to demonize and commit murder again. Now that he has been executed, the case should naturally be closed."
Su Zhen succinctly recounted Lesha's past and said nothing about Si Li's hairpin and the magic pill.
"But I heard from King Qin that you brought back another raccoon dog. How do you explain this?"
Su Zhen was not afraid of his oppression and said word by word, "It's called Lexu, and he is my sister's best friend."
Shang Yuji's eyes unconsciously looked to the upper left, and the knuckles of his right hand subconsciously bent, "Sister? I remember that you only have one concubine?"
"I'm not talking about my sister-in-law Chang Huan. That girl's name is Si Li, and she has passed away. Therefore, I will do my best to keep Lexu alive! If even Lexu is gone, it is equivalent to erasing any trace of her remaining in the world.
think."
Su Zhen's eyes flashed with tears, and she stubbornly forced a smile on her face.
Lexu stretched out his paw and rubbed her face twice to comfort her, and her smile became more genuine.
Shang Yici saw Shang Yuzhen's expression moved and didn't want to pursue it further, so he interrupted, "Su Zhen! The Leshu you talk about is a monster! It may harm the people!"
"Your Highness King Qin, there is no demonic power in Lexu's body. On the contrary, it is a spiritual beast!"
After Si Li used the secret method of sacrifice on them, Lexu had escaped from the demon clan, and his body contained the spiritual power of Si Li's hairpin, so what Su Zhen said was not entirely a lie.
"Spiritual beast? How do I know that you are not just talking nonsense?"
Su Zhen smiled mockingly, lowered her head and whispered a few words into Lexu's ear. Then, everyone saw Lexu leaping from Su Zhen's arms and falling to the ground. Although it did not transform into a human form, Sanskrit symbols glowing with golden light were surrounding it.
"Is this Buddha's light?"
"It turns out to be a spiritual beast!"
Not only the ministers were shocked, but also Shang Yujie stood up from the throne suddenly.
After Shangyu Chen was surprised, he turned his eyes to Su Zhen and found that the fingers under her sleeves also had a golden shimmer, which disappeared in a flash.
The moment the light on her fingertips dissipated, the golden light on Lexu also quickly faded away.
Su Zhen knelt down and hugged Lexu back into her arms very naturally.
"Your Majesty, facts speak louder than words. You will know at a glance whether Lexu is a monster." Su Zhen suddenly smiled tenderly at Shang Yici, "I remember His Highness said last night that I colluded with the man in black to rescue Gu Yun.
Shu. I'm sorry. Actually, I really let Gu Yunshu go on purpose! As for where he is, I really don't know. After all, if I let him go, there is still a way to survive. If he is locked up in a cold and damp sky prison by your highness, who will
I wonder if he can survive last night."
Shang Yici's expression suddenly stiffened. If she said it herself, it would be difficult for him to make a fuss about this matter.
Su Zhen faced Shang Yuzhen and asked, "Your Majesty, I found out something yesterday. Although it is ridiculous, I thought about it and still want to tell you."
Shang Yuzhen vaguely guessed something and raised his eyebrows to look at Shang Yici. His eyes were calm and showed no signs of panic.
"explain."
"My ministers heard that this Lesha was not actually the mastermind behind the scenes. There was someone else behind him. It was this person who ordered him to kill the whole family of the Duwei Mansion on the pretext of doing harm to the people."
"Oh? Who is that person?"
"This... I don't know, I don't know... Lesha died before he finished explaining. Oh! What a pity!" After she finished speaking, she shook her head pretending to be regretful.
Although Su Zhen didn't say it clearly, she clearly pointed the arrow at King Qin. The more ambiguous it was, the more it aroused people's imagination.
Originally, in the name of conspiracy, the death of Xu Jingman's family would not have anything to do with King Qin, but what Su Zhen said before was confirmed to be true. Now that he said this, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were even more skeptical.
Shang Yu suddenly became dissatisfied with Shang Yi Ci, but Su Zhen didn't say it clearly and there was no evidence, so he could only turn a blind eye and hold him accountable in other ways later so that he could grow up.
lesson.
Su Tingye stood at the front of the civil servants, watching Su Zhen silence King Qin and couldn't help laughing.
Su Zhen turned her head and blinked her bright obsidian eyes at him, and Su Tingye smiled fondly in return.
"I still don't understand one thing. How did you and Yunshu kill the monster Lesha? Could it be that you have practiced the Xuanhuang technique?"
"Back to the emperor, I have indeed practiced some small magic, but it was only minor magic. Thanks to Captain Bo, we were able to go so smoothly. As for Mr. Gu, it was more miserable. He was involved inexplicably and almost lost his life.
"
Su Zhen had already mastered lying without changing her expression, and she did it all by herself.
After all, it was a white lie. A big tree attracts the wind, and she still wanted to live a peaceful life.
"Where is Captain Bo?"
Bo Yixuan walked out of the generals' team, knelt down on one knee and cupped his hands, saying, "The general is here."
"You and Su Zhen, the young master of the Su family, have made great achievements. What reward do you two want?"
