Hongzhu's face was flushed with red, and his body was stiff. He nestled in front of the knife and didn't dare to move.
"Relax and sleep for a while, you will be tired tomorrow." Dao soothed Hongzhu like a child and whispered softly in her ear.
Perhaps the movement of the knife was too gentle, perhaps his voice was too gentle, or perhaps his embrace was too safe. Hongzhu's body miraculously relaxed, but his heart in his chest was still beating fast.
In fact, Hongzhu didn't feel that sleepy. Maybe it was because she had slept for a while before. Hongzhu thought a little ashamedly. How could she have fallen asleep without realizing it before?
The two of them just lay hugging each other, the red candle was burning quietly, the room was quiet and peaceful, waiting for time to pass slowly...
At dusk the next day, all the wedding procedures were finally completed.
Dao brought Yun Jingchu and others the news about the true and false Xuanyuan Xi from the Zongren Mansion.
The clan order was held by Dao's fourteenth uncle, who was also his grandfather's fourteenth younger brother. He was titled King Jin and was very serious about his work.
The answer given by King Jin was that he could not tell the real Xuanyuan Xi from the fake one. Based on the descriptions of Xuanyuan Xi by the elders in the palace, he observed and interrogated the two people in detail and found that they even had the same moles on their bodies.
Originally, he wanted to confirm the authenticity of the two of them by asking them some things about Xuanyuan Xi, but the two refused to answer.
Similarly, the two of them also refused to answer questions about the remnants of the Qinglian Sect.
Also, Princess Xian has not eaten or drank since yesterday. She doesn’t answer any questions and just mutters Buddhist scriptures.
Xuanyuan Xi was a member of the royal family and was not suitable for torture, so King Jin asked Dao for his opinion.
"I asked my uncle to tell those two people that the real Xuanyuan Xi can be given a glass of poisonous wine, and the fake one can be executed by Ling Chi. If they don't admit it, then they will all be executed by Ling Chi." The sword said in a harsh voice.
"I think they will be very active in proving that they are Xuanyuan Xi's." Yun Jingchu said with a smile.
Unfortunately, Yun Jingchu guessed wrong. In the afternoon, new news came from the clan, but the two of them remained silent.
"If necessary, I will go and ask for you personally. If not, just execute them all in Lingchi." Wu Jiu said with an indifferent expression.
"Let's first find out who Xuanyuan Xi is. Only by finding out who is Xuanyuan Xi can we find out whether there are any remnants of the Green Lotus Sect." Yun Jingchu replied.
Dao thought for a moment and nodded.
So, that night, Dao, Yun Jingchu and others went to the clan's mansion in person.
King Jin, who served as the sect's order, had been waiting at the door early. When he saw the sword coming, he quickly saluted and stepped forward to hold the sword.
Although he is Dao's imperial uncle, King Jin is less than fifty years old and younger than Dao's father.
King Jin walked in with a knife and a group of people, and then pointed to a room, "Your Majesty, both the real and fake Xuanyuan Xi are inside. I will take you in right now."
After entering the room, they found two Xuanyuan Xi sitting on chairs, their hands and feet tied, and two people watching. To distinguish them, one of them wore a green robe and the other wore an khaki robe.
When the two people in the room saw the knife coming in, they quickly knelt down and saluted.
"Hahaha, my good nephew, you are finally here." Xuanyuan Xi, who was wearing a green robe, laughed wildly.
"I heard from the emperor's uncle that you want to execute us Ling Chi and your nephew to execute our uncle. Aren't you afraid that the world will poke your spine?" Xuanyuan Xi, who was wearing a khaki robe, said with a sneer.
