Li Danqing didn't have much ink in his chest, and all the rhetoric he knew that was somewhat appropriate to the situation was brought out by him at this time.
Prince Li was quite satisfied with the story he had made up. At that time, he raised his head high and stretched his neck as if he was waiting for the applause and cheers he imagined.
But obviously, the facts disappointed him.
Everyone in Dafeng Court looked at him, Zhao Quan and his party also looked at him, and Ying Li and others also looked at him.
It's just that the former holds his forehead, and the middle one admires it, while the latter looks like he's looking at a fool.
Of course, everyone in Dafengyuan hopes that Li Danqing can give a convincing reason, so that with the arrival of Zhao Quan, things will become simpler. However, Li Danqing still maintains his usual style of being careless and talkative.
The choice of words, the words...are somewhat unexpressive.
Zhao Quan rushed over as soon as he received the news. He knew Li Danqing's plan, but he still underestimated Li Danqing's shamelessness.
As for everyone in Yingli, they laughed heartily after being nervous for a while.
I thought that Li Danqing had invited Zhao Quan and Qin Chenggu's people again, what kind of big moves would he make, and what kind of irrefutable reasons would he give, but he didn't want it to be just such a nonsense.
"I said Prince Li was living in a dream, and he was really living in a dream." The gloomy look on Ying Li's face dissipated at that time, and he looked at Li Danqing with a mocking look on his face: "
Prince Li doesn’t really think that you can describe the ten Dongqingyuan disciples as spies of the Eternal Life Palace just based on your words, right?”
"Or is it the days when Li Mulin was protecting you that made Prince Li feel that everyone in the world is so easy to deceive?"
"At that time, it wasn't really because of how Prince Li could confuse right and wrong, and he was so eloquent. It was just because Li Mulin was here and no one wanted to argue with you about it. It wasn't because your lies could be confused with the truth!"
Ying Li's sarcasm made Li Danqing's face change slightly, and he said in a panic: "What do you mean by one-sided words? Dozens of people in my Dafeng Academy can testify!"
Although everyone in Dafengyuan also felt that the story fabricated by Li Danqing was a bit outrageous, it was impossible to lose Li Danqing's chain at this stall, so they all nodded at that time.
Ying Li smiled disdainfully: "You all work together in collusion, do you think you can believe this?"
"Prisoner Zhang! Get it for me!"
As soon as he said this, prisoner Zhang did not hesitate. For them, the death of Yingqu and his party was just an excuse for them to arrest Li Danqing. As long as there was no conclusive evidence, no matter how good Li Danqing said or how many testimonies he had,
It doesn't matter.
What's more, they know better that there is no way Yingqu and his party are spies from the Palace of Eternal Life.
Just when Zhang Prisoner took a step forward, Zhao Quan stepped forward and stopped in front of Zhang Prisoner: "Junior Brother Zhang! I'm afraid it's not appropriate to do this until this matter is clarified, right?"
"What? Dean Zhao thinks Ying Qu and his party are from the Palace of Eternal Life?" Before Zhang Qian could say anything, Ying Li asked coldly.
"This is not a question of whether you feel it or not. At least Young Master Ying can't just conclude that Ying Qu and his party are not from the Palace of Eternal Life, right? It is inappropriate to arrest Dean Li and his party so hastily, both emotionally and rationally!"
Zhao Quan also darkened his face and said this.
"Ying Qu is from the Ying family!" But these words seemed to hit Ying Li's pain point. Ying Li's voice suddenly became louder at that time, and anger surged between his brows.
"He was born in the Ying family and grew up in the Ying family! If he is from the Yongsheng Palace! Does that mean that the entire Ying family is from the Yingsheng Palace in your heart, Dean Zhao?"
Zhao Quan was stunned by Ying Li's angry questioning, and his face seemed a little pale, probably because he was frightened by Ying Li's appearance.
After all, he is the eldest son of the Ying family, and with the Qingxia family being slaughtered and the Xu family weak, the Ying family almost holds the power of the entire Wuyang family in their hands, which is enough to compete with the masters of the three palaces.
The power to compete is definitely not comparable to that of Zhao Quan, the dean of a declining sect.
Ying Li saw the change in the expression on Zhao Quan's face at this moment, with a smile on his face, and said: "Since Dean Zhao doesn't want to wade into this muddy water, then..."
"Since Mr. Ying is so sure that Ying Qu is not from the Palace of Eternal Life, and is even willing to use the entire Ying family as a guarantee, then Li Danqing has nothing to say, and you don't need to bother yourself! Xue Yun, please bring some people to take the bodies of Ying Qu and others.
Carry it out and let Young Master Ying and Lord Zhang take him to his grave. I will follow Young Master Ying and just hope that Young Master Ying will let go of these disciples of mine. After all, I am the one who killed the person.
." Li Danqing's voice sounded at this moment, interrupting Ying Li's words.
Li Danqing's compromise came somewhat unexpectedly, and Ying Li didn't expect it.
Everyone in Dafengyuan also looked confused. Although Li Danqing had indeed fallen behind when things had developed to this point, as long as he insisted that Ying Qu and others were spies from the Yongsheng Palace, there would at least be room for mediation in the matter. Li Danqing was so
If you suddenly admit it, wouldn't it be equivalent to handing over your life?
Everyone still wanted to say something, but Xue Yun and Xiwen Jun had already set off to return to the inner courtyard at this time. Although everyone was worried when they saw this, they didn't know how to reverse the situation for a while, so they could only follow Xiwen Jun and Xue Jun.
Yun and his wife returned to the courtyard and took out one by one the stinking bodies that had been lying in a remote area of Dafeng courtyard for a full day and night.
At this time, Ying Li and Zhang Qian also saw the corpses of their own clansmen and disciples, and the anger in their hearts inevitably surged again.
Ying Li gritted his teeth and sneered: "Prince Li! The evidence is conclusive! This time, no one can save you! Take it!"
The disciples brought by Zhang Prison did not hesitate at all when they heard this, and they aggressively stepped forward to take someone away.
"Wait!" But at this moment, another voice sounded.
There were too many changes in today's events, which already made Ying Li a little impatient. He turned around to look for a voice, but saw that the person who spoke was the general named Ye brought by Yang Tong - Ye Chuifeng.
"What do you have to say?" There is a saying that a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. Although Ying Li looks down on the mere governor of Yingshui County, the Ying family wants to control Yangshan and fight with the Yingshui County governor in the future.
I'm afraid Qin Chenggu will have many more encounters with each other. He had turned against him not long ago, so he calmed down and asked in a cold voice.
Ye Chuifeng did not respond to Ying Li's inquiry immediately. Instead, he frowned and looked at the ten corpses that were carried out by the disciples of Dafeng Academy. The more he looked at them, the more seriously he looked. Finally, he simply squatted down and reached out to fiddle with the corpses.
Several corpses, this appearance made everyone murmur.
Ying Li's little patience was exhausted by Ye Chuifeng's strange behavior.
"General Ye! The dead are the most important! If you haven't seen the corpse, go and take a look at the border of Youyun, where the Qingyun Army and the Youyun bandits often fight! Now I want to take my clan brother and the disciples of Dongqingyuan to the grave.
For the sake of peace, by the way, we will bring this evil man Li Danqing to justice. I hope you won’t delay! Don’t regard the Ying family’s good intentions as weakness. Otherwise, Qin Chenggu won’t be able to protect you when the time comes!” Ying Li gritted his teeth and said one word.
A meal of words.
Ye Chuifeng stood up after hearing this. He looked at Ying Li and said with a calm expression: "I'm afraid Mr. Ying can't take away these corpses today."
"What do you mean?" Ying Li asked in a low voice.
Ye Chuifeng pointed to the ten corpses and said: "These people are from the Palace of Eternal Life. According to the order issued by the imperial court, they returned to the governor's palace."
After all, Ye Chuifeng's identity is different from that of everyone present. He represents the imperial court. Although Ying Li also has a similar identity, he does not hold an official position after all. At this moment, Ye Chuifeng's words can't help but shock the hearts of everyone present.
Ying Li was also a little surprised. After being stunned for a moment, he suddenly laughed loudly: "Okay! Very good!"
"I underestimated Prince Li! I asked you, Li Danqing, where did you get such courage? It turned out that you had managed to get through to General Ye and sing with me here. Do you think you can scare me, Ying Li, like this? I
I’ve said it! Ying Qu is from my Ying family. I know best what kind of person he is. If the general says he is a spy from the Palace of Eternal Life, it would be better to say that we are all from the Ying family! Wait until I report this matter to the court! You
No matter Li Danqing, Zhao Quan, or even this General Ye who abused his power, you cannot escape, frame Zhongliang and kill people! That is a capital crime!" Ying Li said with a cold face.
But these words obviously irritated Xiwen Jun beside Li Danqing. She suppressed her anger and said at that time
: "False against Zhongliang? Who in the world of Wuyang can do it better than your Ying family!"
"Seeking death!" Upon hearing this, prisoner Zhang narrowed his eyes and was about to take action.
But Ye Chuifeng said at this time: "Ye is just a martial artist, not as fancy as Mr. Ying thought. He only came here in the name of the county guard. Mr. Ying has no dissatisfaction with what he does.
Report to the court, but if Young Master Ying wants to use the Ying family as a guarantee for this Ying Qu, I suggest that Young Master Ying first take a look at these corpses before talking..."
Ye Chuifeng's tone was calm and his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, but it made Ying Li's heart skip a beat and he secretly felt bad.
He and Zhang Qian glanced deeply, and saw that the corpses, including Ying Qu, had more or less cyan scales on their feet, arms, cheeks and chests.
Such things are definitely not forged, they are connected with flesh and blood and grow from the inside out.
The case of the Palace of Eternal Life is very involved. Both Ying Li and Zhang Qian knew some of the characteristics of the disciples of the Palace of Eternal Life. The most important point is that after death, these disciples will have cyan or black scales on their bodies.
Such an incident caused Ying Li and Zhang Qian's expressions to change, and they immediately stood there blankly. There was a roar in their heads, and for a moment they didn't know what to say or what to do.
"Oh!" At this moment, Li Danqing on the side suddenly slapped his thigh, with a look of surprise on his face, and said: "How is this possible?"
"Didn't Young Master Ying say that? If Ying Qu is a spy of the Eternal Life Palace, then the entire Ying family is a spy of the Eternal Life Palace! The Ying family is a meritorious minister who has gone through life and death for our Wuyang Dynasty? Could it be General Ye who saw it?
wrong?"
Although Ye Chuifeng was an upright man, he was not stupid. Of course he understood the sarcasm from Li Danqing's words, but Ying Li's previous attitude was not good. Naturally, he did not try to save Ying Li, and just said in a deep voice.
He said: "Ye looked carefully. If there is any mistake, Ye is willing to be punished."
"That's it."
Li Danqing said very distressedly, but there was a clear smile between his eyebrows: "I have a lot of people in Dafeng Academy, and my dean does things carelessly. He always likes to talk about whatever comes to his mind. These disciples and servants under my disciples,
Count them all, and they are all talkative women. I am afraid that Mr. Ying’s words today will soon reach the ears of people who should not hear them. At that time..."
Ying Li's expression was ugly. He was absolutely convinced that Ying Qu was not a spy from the Palace of Eternal Life. But at this moment, the evidence was conclusive. He had made some gaffes before. If these words were spread, they might not cause much substantial damage to the Ying family.
But it is enough to shake Ying Li's position in Ying Xiangjun's heart. After all, Ying Li may not be the only candidate for the head of the Ying family...
Although Ying Li was unwilling to think of this, he still had to turn to look at Li Danqing at that time, lowered his high head, and said softly: "Yes... Ying Li made a mistake, please ask Mr. Li Shizi...
The adults do not remember the faults of the villain..."
Li Danqing narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Of course. Brother Ying and I are family friends, so Li Danqing has no choice but to take responsibility for this."
"but……"
As he said that, Li Danqing looked distressed and looked at the courtyard gate that was stepped on by Ying Li.
"But my Dafengyuan family is surrounded by walls, and this gate is the only valuable property, but it was damaged by an unknown thief..."
Considering what Li Danqing said, how could Ying Li not understand what he was thinking? His heart sank and he said: "Don't worry, Prince Li, how much does this courtyard cost? I, Ying Li, will definitely compensate you according to the price."
Li Danqing blinked, looked at Ying Li strangely, and said, "Didn't I just say that? It's only thirty thousand taels."
When Ying Li heard this, his body trembled, and he suddenly remembered that when he just entered the door, Li Danqing's first sentence mentioned to everyone was that the courtyard gate was worth thirty thousand taels. At that time, he was only focused on settling accounts with Li Danqing, and he didn't even think about it.
He ignored the matter. Now that he thinks about it, it seems that he has been plotted by Li Danqing from the moment he stepped into the courtyard. From the beginning to the end, he was led by Li Danqing...
A sense of frustration surged into his heart, Ying Li's chest felt tight, his face turned pale, and a mouthful of old blood spurted out from his mouth...
