Among the crowd of onlookers, there was a man wearing white clothes, a big hat on his head, a short sword at his waist, leather boots on his feet, a small oval face, a pair of clear almond eyes, and fair skin.
This person is Bai Tingting, Bai Qiulian's daughter. She disguised herself as a man and blended into the crowd to listen to the interrogation.
Bai Qiulian is tall, but compared to some tall men, he is still not tall enough.
Bai Tingting looked around and saw the cornice of a restaurant next to her. She stepped on someone else's shoulders and jumped up, landing on the cornice.
Condescendingly, Bai Tingting finally saw the dead eunuch in her mother's mouth. ??
"He looks good, but it's a pity that he is a eunuch."
Bai Tingting hates Bai Qiulian, so she has a good impression of Long Chen.
In the square, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the empress nodded and agreed to announce the autopsy results of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Bai Qiulian was overjoyed and urged: "Yushi Bai, it hasn't been announced yet!"
Bai Anning turned around helplessly, and everyone fell silent.
"Yesterday, the coffin was opened and an autopsy was conducted. It was found that General Shui Han's mandible was shattered by a heavy blow, and there were traces of puncture marks on the xiphoid process of the sternum. There were no recent fight scars on other parts of the body."
"So. The Metropolitan Procuratorate determined that General Shui Han was hit in the head and died at the same time as his heart was pierced by a sharp blade."
After Bai Anning finished speaking, the ministers and people were still silent, and everyone was shocked.
They have all read the inquiry documents from the Metropolitan Procuratorate. According to Di Luoxi and Long Chen, Shui Han died in the battle of Shangguan Wei.
Since it was a battle, there must have been other injuries, but the autopsy results were completely opposite.
Therefore, Di Luoxi and Long Chen lied.
Bai Qiulian asked: "Bai Yushi, did you miss something?"
Bai Anning bowed his head in silence, and Bai Qiulian said loudly: "One more thing, according to the autopsy results, General Shui Han had his hands and feet tied when he died!"
Roar.
The quiet square suddenly exploded!
This news is so exciting.
Being tied hand and foot, this means Ming Shuihan did not die in battle at all, but was executed.
"His hands and feet were tied? Who tied them?"
"General Shui Han's cultivation level is not low, how could he be tied up?"
"Could it be that General Shui Han was captured by Shangguan Wei?"
"It's impossible. Shangguan Wei was defeated, but we won and captured Caishi City."
"That means."
Everyone's eyes turned to Di Luoxi and Long Chen, and they already had guesses, or rather answers, in their minds.
At this time, Jing Tianlie stood up from his seat and walked to the middle of the square. Immediately, soldiers wearing red flame armor came in dragging a coffin.
boom!
The coffin fell heavily to the ground, making a dull sound.
The empress frowned, and Yingfeng stood up and asked: "General, what are you doing!"
Jing Tianlie bowed to the empress: "Your Majesty, forgive me. I brought General Shui Han's coffin because I wanted General Shui Han to hear today's trial!"
The court became silent again.
The empress looked solemn, but said nothing more.
Jing Tianlie walked to the coffin and said to Di Luoxi and Long Chen: "You two, come out and talk!"
Jing Heng looked at Long Chen with gloating eyes and said, "Long Shangshu, please!"
Di Luoxi and Long Chen were sitting on their seats, looking at each other from a distance, neither of them speaking.
There was a buzz of discussion among the officials and people below, saying that there was something wrong with the two of them.
Seeing that the time had come, Jing Tianlie added: "That day in Linjiang City, someone saw Shui Han being brought into the room by Long Chengen, and then the fourth princess also entered the room. Soon Shui Han died suddenly!"
"So, Shui Han was murdered by the Fourth Princess and Long Chengen! He was not killed in battle!"
boom.
Officials and people were outraged. This news was so shocking.
Di Luoxi slowly stood up from her seat, and Long Chen also stood up and walked to the coffin.
Everyone is waiting for Di Luoxi and Long Chen's explanation. ??
"you say?"
"Let me tell you!"
Long Chen signaled Di Luoxi to go back and stayed while Di Luoxi returned to his seat and sat down.
Long Chen stood next to Jing Tianlie, with helplessness in his eyes, and said in a low voice: "General, I am doing this for your own good, and of course for Da Zhou, you have to force me."
Jing Tianlie's cold and arrogant expression suddenly changed slightly, and he asked in a low voice: "What do you mean?"
Long Chen ignored Jing Tianlie, but bowed to the empress, then turned to all the officials and people and said: "Everyone, there are no problems with the autopsy conducted by the Metropolitan Procuratorate!"
Everyone was shocked in their hearts, but they didn't make any move and looked at Long Chen quietly.
"Shui Han didn't die from injuries in the battle, he was executed!"
After Long Chen finished speaking, the quiet officials and people below finally couldn't help but explode.
"Execution? That means Shui Han is guilty, and it is a capital crime!"
"Why is this? Shui Han is obviously the hero."
"What's going on? What's going on?"
The officials and the people were making a fuss, and the crowd was also in a commotion.
The empress stood up and shouted: "Long Chengen, tell me clearly why you are being executed? Why don't I know!"
Di Yuwei and Di Xingwan looked at Di Luoxi at the same time.
Bai Qiulian immediately jumped up and shouted loudly: "What is the execution? It is to use lynching to murder the general! Please kill this thief!"
Long Chen bowed and said, "Jing Heng, the Minister of Revenue, knows best about this matter! Please ask him to speak!"
Officials and people were confused by Long Chen, why did they jump to Jing Heng again?
The empress looked at Jing Heng, Jing Tianlie's back Breaking into a cold sweat, he sensed danger.
Jing Heng's whole body trembled, his feet became weak, and he shouted in horror: "How do I know? Don't climb randomly!"
The empress turned around and asked Long Chen: "What's going on? Don't show off!"
Long Chen walked up to the empress, took out a burned secret message from his sleeve, and presented it to the empress.
"Because Shui Han collaborated with the enemy, and the one who ordered Shui Han to collaborate with the enemy was Jing Heng!"
"This is a secret letter written by Jing Heng to Shui Han, asking Shui Han to reveal Linjiang City's defense plan to Shangguan Wei."
"Because Shuihan collaborated with the enemy and Shangguanwei attacked the west gate, 40,000 of our Zhou soldiers were killed!"
Long Chen's roaring voice exploded like spring thunder, and everyone looked at Jing Heng with incredulous eyes.
Things keep turning around today, making it hard to wrap your head around it.
Shui Han was originally a martyr, but now he has become a traitor.
Originally, Long Chengen was committing murder, but now he is committing rape.
Originally Jing Tianlie was the judge, but now he is the one being judged.
Jing Tianlie was stunned and instinctively shouted: "Nonsense!"
With a loud shout, Jing Tianlie suddenly punched Long Chen.
Long Chen was on guard for a long time. When his fist came, Long Chen took the blow with all his strength.
boom!
Long Chen's sleeve burst, leaving only a bare arm. His left arm had split open and blood was dripping down.
Long Chen was injured, but he took Jing Tianlie's fist.
Upstairs in Banyue, Ji Ba's eyes widened and he said in surprise: "Caught it? What a miracle!"
Jing Tianlie was at the pinnacle of the Martial Emperor, and his cultivation ranked second in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Long Chen was just a eunuch who appeared out of nowhere, and actually received Jing Tianlie's punch.
"Sedum Lie!"
Di Luoxi was furious and ducked in front of Long Chen. Zhang Qian and three others drew their swords at the same time and surrounded Long Chen.
The empress shouted sternly: "Jingtianlie, what are you doing!"
