Zhang Sannian responded, took out a delicate and small warm cyan jade seal from his pocket, and then input his magic power.
The cyan jade seal vibrated slightly, emitting a faint cyan light. After a breath, the cyan light gathered and turned into a stream of light, flying away without a trace.
This jade seal is the private seal of Emperor Xuanqing. It contains prohibitions and is connected with the imperial palace and the Tianxing Formation. When the emperor wants to summon, he only needs to activate the private seal to pass the message to the person summoned.
There is no need to send someone to notify you.
In the world of cultivation, because of the magical powers, spells, and formation restrictions, many things have become very convenient, even more convenient than on earth and in the modern technological world.
"Your Majesty, I have already sent your summons, and His Highness Eighty-sixth is receiving it simultaneously. It is estimated that she will be able to arrive at the Tianji Hall to meet the Holy Spirit in just a cup of tea."
Zhang Sannian bowed and said.
Emperor Xuanqing groaned: "Then just wait."
He glanced at everyone: "Don't waste time. If you have anything, just take the time to talk."
"yes."
The royal family could no longer hold it in any longer. Concubine Zhang, Concubine Yun and Prince Chang Ersanliu had occupied the entire half day, while they themselves were left alone without saying a word.
So I went through the memorials one by one in order of ranking.
There's nothing much to say about the content, it's all the same old routine, nothing more than cultivation progress, application for assessment, reporting on achievements and so on.
Emperor Xuanqing also returned to his usual minimalist style, and only one or two words popped out of his mouth like gold: "Yes."
"Accurate", "Good" and so on.
Soon, the time for a cup of tea passed.
The young entourage came in for the fourth time and hurried up to the palace: "Your Majesty, the Eighty-sixth Princess Du Xueqing has received the summons and requested an interview."
Emperor Xuanqing said: "Xuan her in."
"yes."
The young entourage went out, and after a while, he walked in with the eighty-six princesses.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on her.
Compared with the last court meeting, the Eighty-sixth Princess has not changed. She still maintains the appearance of the person who was taken away from her. However, her temperament, demeanor, and style have improved. She looks more majestic, more radiant, and full of indescribable
the breath.
Obviously, this is a sign of diligent cultivation.
"It's only been a few days... Eighty-six's progress can even be seen on the outside. The top-grade spiritual roots are truly extraordinary."
All the royal family were amazed.
Du Xueqing had not attended the court meeting for at most a month. For a monk, this amount of time could not even be considered a nap. However, Du Xueqing could see significant changes in her body.
It really makes people envious and jealous.
Concubine Zhang, Concubine Yun and Prince Chang Er San Liu also looked at the Eighty Six Princess, their eyes were different, but full of negative emotions such as haze, hatred and anger.
The Eighty-sixth Princess looked at everyone as if she had not seen them, and looked calm. She walked to the front of the Tianji Palace and slowly saluted: "My son is here to see my father. I wonder what urgent matter my father has summoned for me?"
Emperor Xuanqing looked her over a few times: "Eighty-six, I know you are practicing diligently and should not interrupt, but several major events have happened recently, all related to you, so I summoned you.
Of course, it won’t take much of your time, it’s just a few words.”
Du Xueqing said: "It doesn't matter. Since it is the father who is asking the question, the son and minister will naturally tell you everything they know."
At this moment, she was still being controlled by Chen Hao.
After all, the real Eighty-sixth Princess has been practicing and knows nothing about Chen Hao's revenge.
Emperor Xuanqing said: "Okay, I ask you, do you know that three horrific murders occurred in the palace the night before yesterday?"
"First, in the harem of my concubine, Concubine Zhang, except for Concubine Zhang herself, the other monks including the maids and attendants were all killed cleanly and their bodies were destroyed without leaving any trace or evidence."
"Secondly, your biological brother, Prince 152, who was the one who challenged you to a showdown in the various arts of cultivation, and his disciples, as well as his maids and attendants, were all killed. Their bodies were also destroyed without leaving any traces.
.”
"Thirdly, my younger brother, the Ninety-seventh Prince, you should have heard that the monks in the integration stage, the top figures in your royal family, also died. At first we thought that the Ninety-seventh Prince was in
He died outside, but his father, Prince Chang 236, pointed out that Prince Chang 97 came back in the past two days and died in his palace, and the way of death was the same as the first two, with no bones left. What?
None were left.”
"Today at the court meeting, Concubine Zhang herself, Concubine Yun, the mother of Prince 152, and Prince Chang 236, the father of Prince 97, have arrived one after another to testify that you are the murderer of these three murder cases."
"In addition to Concubine Zhang's speculation that you are the murderer, Concubine Yun and Prince Chang 236 both clearly pointed out that before the incident, Prince 152 and Prince Chang 97 tried to kill you, but failed, and you fought back and retaliated. Analysis
It makes sense, it's logical, and there are no other suspects."
"In addition, there are a number of unidentified monks who have been lurking near your palace these days, secretly monitoring them. However, just before dawn on the eve, they all suddenly died suddenly. After investigation by the court, there was no sign of any struggle or
There are traces of hands, and the cause of death is still unknown, and I suspect it was your hand."
"What's your explanation for this?"
Chen Haodao: "Excuse me, Father, is there any evidence to prove that these incidents were committed by my son?"
Emperor Xuanqing said: "No."
Chen Haodao: "Then what should I explain?
I have been practicing in seclusion in the palace, and I don’t hear what is going on outside the window. I don’t know what is happening in the outside world.”
Emperor Xuanqing said: "But how do you explain the analysis and identification of Concubine Zhang, Concubine Yun and Prince Chang 236?"
He turned to gesture to Zhang Sannian.
Zhang Sannian understood, took out the warm cyan jade seal, called up the records of the Tianji Palace court meeting, and replayed the scenes mentioned by Concubine Zhang, Concubine Yun, and Prince Chang Ersanliu in front of Chen Hao.
Chen Hao finished reading with an expressionless face: "Father, I'm still saying the same thing. I've been practicing recently and don't know anything. If you want to prove that I killed someone, then provide evidence.
And I don’t understand. This is the first time that Concubine Zhang, Concubine Yun, and Prince Chang Er San Liu and I have met each other. We have no grudges in the past, and we haven’t even exchanged a word. Why do you three want to do this?
Are you making things out of nothing and slandering me?"
He looked at Concubine Zhang, Concubine Yun and Prince Chang Er San Liu aggressively.
When the three of them heard this, their lungs almost exploded with anger.
Concubine Yun said angrily: "Eighty-six, what are you pretending to be?
If you really don’t know anything, shouldn’t you be shocked after listening to what Concubine Zhang, Concubine Zhang, and Prince Chang Ersanliu said?
Shouldn’t we try our best to defend ourselves?
Why do you look so calm as if you already knew it? This only proves that you already knew that you are the murderer."
