Chapter 224 Where Are Your Rules and Bottom Lines?

As soon as Yun Chong's words came out, Shen Lingxi's sword tipped slightly, "Dang..." and again "missed" and landed on the floor tiles.

"Ah!!!" Yun Chong screamed while holding his head.

However, the severe pain he expected did not come. He broke out in cold sweat and shivered while holding his head.

There was a trace of ridicule in Shen Lingxi's eyes, she looked at Yun Chong, and said in a very calm tone, "Since you want to help His Highness investigate the case, I am not such an unreasonable person. I will let you go today and let you go You hand it over to His Highness."

She paused, and her voice sank again, "However, if you still want to 'recall' your younger sister who died young in front of His Highness, dare to mention her a word..."

"Don't mention it, don't mention it." Yun Chong held his head and said, "Don't worry, Crown Princess, I will never dare to mention it again in this life."

With a sound of "clang", Shen Lingxi snorted lightly, as if having played enough, she threw away the long sword in her hand.

In every word and deed, the eight characters "beautiful because of petting" and "hate because of jealousy" are played to the extreme.

Seeing Shen Lingxi throwing away the sword in his hand, Prince Rui heaved a sigh of relief, and looked at Shen Lingxi, full of disapproval.

It's just that if you don't agree with it, you don't agree with it. The behavior of the bride just now is too tough, and he will not disregard safety and admonish her aloud.

Therefore, Prince Rui looked eagerly at Chu Yan, and based on his understanding of this imperial nephew, he would definitely not tolerate his crown prince concubine acting like this in public, wouldn't this make him, the crown prince, ashamed.

Not only Prince Rui, but even Chun Jun and Sheng Xie, the two subordinates who had been serving Chu Yan all along, looked at Shen Lingxi with sympathy.

No one knows better than them, His Royal Highness is a person who respects rules.

No matter how much he likes this princess, His Highness still has a bottom line.

The behavior of the Crown Princess just now is extremely staggering even in the previous dynasty where the emperor was in power.

If it gets out...

The consequences could be disastrous.

Prince Rui, Chun Jun, and Sheng Xie all looked at Chu Yan in unison,

Shen Lingxi had a panoramic view of the expressions of the three of them.

She had done enough acting, in front of Prince Rui, she still had to call it a day, she couldn't let Chu Yan, the new crown prince, get the reputation of "fear of internal affairs".

Then she, the fake princess, is really guilty.

Shen Lingxi walked up to Chu Yan, and bowed his knees to him, "Just now, my concubine was stunned by Yun Chong, a treacherous little man, and made a disrespectful thing. Please punish him, Your Highness."

She originally thought that in Chu Yan's capacity, at most she would say "not to be an example", or pretend to be "self-examination for three days" in front of others, and expose the matter.

However, to the surprise of Shen Lingxi and everyone else——
Without waiting for her to bend her knees, Chu Yan directly reached out to hold her arm, and asked gently, "Are you tired?"

Prince Rui:? ? ?
Yun Chong:! ! !
Chunjun and Shengxie: ...

Shen Lingxi also blinked in astonishment.

Although I don't know why he acted like this in front of everyone.

But since he accepted the role in this way, she could only follow him, "It's... okay, but the sword is too heavy, and my hands are a little sore."

"I'll find you a handy sword later on." The corners of Chu Yan's lips curled slightly, and a slight smile appeared at the bottom of his eyes, as if he was very satisfied with her answer, "If you don't calm down, wait until Yun Chong makes a move, and then take it again." He just vented his anger."

"Alright." Shen Lingxi deliberately paused for a few breaths, and asked hesitantly: "Then will he... in order to save his life, tell lies to lie to His Highness?"

"It doesn't matter." Chu Yan replied lightly, "I only give him one chance. If he tells a lie, he will be killed directly. It will save him from being alive, so that he can obstruct your eyes and make you angry."

Shen Lingxi's eyebrows and eyes were curved, and she said happily, "I listen to Your Highness."

The two of you come and go, as if no one else is there, even if it is Chunjun and Shengxie, it sounds staggering.

This is definitely the live-action version of "The Demon Concubine Disasters the Country".

Your Highness, what is the rule that you have always valued the most?

What's your bottom line?
Apart from feeling that his highness is suddenly worthless, Chunjun is still calm.

But Sheng Xie beside him had extremely bright eyes.

Sheng Xie remembered the last time when he saw Shen Lingxi reviewing the official documents of the embroiderer...

Exciting, really exciting.

Not only them, Prince Rui and the desperate Yun Chong were also completely shocked by their conversation.

They originally thought that Chu Yan married Shen Lingxi as his concubine because of her resemblance to the little princess of Yunguo.

did not expect……

Yun Chongyuan relied on Chu Yan's "love" for his late sister, coupled with the fact that he had the truth about the death of Chu Yan's mother and concubine, that he dared to do those things. He expected that Chu Yan would definitely keep him. Life.

Unexpectedly, not only throwing herself into the net now, but also because of Yun Xi, who has been dead for many years, she offended the prince's new love.

Yun Chong is going to regret it right now.

He hated in his heart that even if that dead girl Yunxi died, she wouldn't let him go, making him so unlucky.

Chu Yan's eyes signaled Chun Jun, temporarily stopped the bleeding for Yun Chong, took Shen Lingxi's hand, and returned to the top again.

The spacious couch is more than enough for the two of them to sit side by side.

Chu Yan stared at Yun Chong, his voice became cold and solemn again, "You only have one stick of incense time, how many days you can live with this life depends on whether the news you say is useful to Gu ..."

Now that it's all over, Yun Chong naturally doesn't dare to hide any more, and he doesn't dare to make conditions with Qiao, "It's useful, it's useful, the death of Empress You'an, and the cooperation with my emperor's uncle within a week... "

Empress You'an, after the emperor conferred the title of Chu Yan as the crown prince, was the title given to his biological mother, Xie Zhanghua, the former concubine of the crown prince.

In order to save his life, Yun Chong hastily told everything he knew...

"Yun Hongshan, the king of Yunjiang, has a powerful alchemist by his side, named Wuerda, the son of the former national teacher, who is best at Zhuyou and disguise, and has a lot of research on medicine and poison. More than ten years ago , Yun Hongshan once brought Uerda to Dazhou."

When Yun Hongshan was mentioned, Yun Chong's eyes were full of hatred.

"Yun Hongshan seems to be indifferent and uncontested by nature, but he is actually cunning and ambitious. More than ten years ago, my father's body gradually declined and he neglected government affairs. There were complaints from the government and the public..."

When Shen Lingxi heard this, there was a sneer in his eyes, and he interrupted him sarcastically, "The body is getting weaker? Neglecting the government? How did I hear that Emperor Li was obsessed with the way of longevity, and he arrested women from good families to enter the palace. What are you doing?" The longevity technique of harvesting yin and replenishing yang has caused widespread complaints among the people, Yun Chong, are you sure what you are telling is the truth?"

Now when Yun Chong heard her voice, his whole body trembled subconsciously, and even the bleeding wound was bleeding out.

He who is good at observing words and expressions, how could he fail to hear that Shen Lingxi hated their Yun family to the extreme.

Whenever he said something good about the Yun family, it would surely arouse her taboo.

He hurriedly said with righteous indignation: "Prince Princess is right, Emperor Li is indeed devoid of conscience! He deserves to be pierced by ten thousand arrows! Death is not a pity!"

Shen Lingxi snorted softly, really wishing that the scumbag father in the previous life was in the [-]th floor of hell, listen carefully, the good son he has worked so hard to protect is such a thing who is greedy for life and afraid of death.

Seeing her calm down, Yun Chong felt a little relieved, and continued: "At that time, the former emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty was busy fighting with Di Rong in the north, and had no plans to attack Yun Kingdom. Yun Hongshan quietly took Wuerda, When he came to Da Zhou, he tried every means to encourage Da Zhou to send troops to Yunguo, so that he could secretly connect with Da Zhou and force the palace to rebel."

"At that time, the daughter of the Xie family had just married the prince, and the Xie family was highly regarded by the Emperor of Zhou. Yun Hongshan wanted to get on the boat of the prince, so he went to Donghua Mansion, intending to seek employment through the Xie family."

"Even though Emperor Li is stupid and ruthless, but Yunguo is still alive, and Dazhou is at war with Beidi. If he goes to attack Yunguo again, he will be attacked by both sides, which is not a good thing for Dazhou. Naturally, the Xie family will not agree to Yun Hongshan request."

"After Yun Hongshan hit a wall, he set his mind on the woman from the Xie family..."

"He abducted Xie's daughter, Xie Zhangting, who had a good relationship with Empress You'an, and brought her back to Yunguo, where she was raised in the Tongque Garden. He wanted Xie Zhangting to conceive his child, and then send the news back to Da Zhou."

"At that time, he and the Xie family will be related by marriage, and even brother-in-law with the crown prince. The Xie family and the crown prince will definitely help him succeed."

"It's just that, for some reason, the daughter of the Xie family quietly ran back to Dazhou and was killed."

"My uncle was so frightened that he sent Wuerda to Da Zhou overnight to take care of the empress. Unexpectedly, Wuerda made his own opinions and went so far as to kill Empress You'an in Dazhou..."

When Shen Lingxi heard this, she looked at Chu Yan.

What Yun Chong said, what happened in Da Zhou, and the previous confessions of Xie Zhangting and Xie Zhanghua can probably be matched.

It seems that Yun Hongshan's original purpose of approaching Xie Zhangting was not pure.

First of all, he self-revealed his identity and tried to get in touch with Xie's family privately, so he approached Xie Zhangting as a "pharmacist".

However, Yun Chong's words did not match Xie Zhangting's confession.

For example, he was vague about the details of Xie Zhangting's return to Dazhou.And, when Xie Zhangting saw Wuerda, she was not dead yet, but Yun Chong said, "The emperor was so scared that he sent Wuerda overnight to deal with the aftermath of the Great Zhou."

There is something strange about this sentence.

Shen Lingxi tugged at Chu Yan's sleeve lightly, indicating that she would be the one to interrogate, then turned to look at Yun Chong, and said with a half-smile, "You just said that Yun Hongshan approached Xie Zhangting because he wanted to cooperate with the prince and the Xie family. So, why did he kill Empress You'an? Wouldn't this be an enmity? The preface doesn't make sense, are you trying to fool His Highness?"

"Grandma, if you lend me your courage, I don't dare to fool you."

Yun Chong said anxiously: "Everything I said is true. Na Wuerda used Zhu Youshu to kill people. He has always had a habit of locking the soul of the person who died in his hands."

"This is a rule handed down by the former imperial master. As long as the dead man's soul is locked, they will not go to the underworld to sue him. After a hundred years, he will be able to ascend to immortality."

"The Suohunjing underground palace incident happened. Your Highness has already seen the name of Empress You'an and the black porcelain jar. Your Highness also went to Donghua Mansion. You must have found the same thing in Xie Zhangting's coffin, right?"

Shen Lingxi smiled, "You are so clear about His Highness's whereabouts. It seems that you colluded with Danzhu to kill Mu Xue'e in Yongtai Palace. You also arranged for the person who deliberately hung the body to the Dizang Palace above the soul lock well." The purpose? The purpose is to lead His Highness to discover the secret of the underground palace, isn’t it?”

A look of surprise appeared on Yun Chong's face.

He moved his lips, wanting to ask how Shen Lingxi knew about this.

But on second thought——

Just now when he identified Wuerda's habit of killing people, he had already shown his feet!

Yun Chong looked at Shen Lingxi in amazement, this woman is terrifying when she is crazy, and even more terrifying when she is not crazy!
Shen Lingxi didn't care what Yun Chong thought at all, she glanced at Prince Rui's face from the corner of her eye, and saw that there was no surprise on his face, his almond eyes were slightly deep.

She didn't delve into the matter just now, and looked at Yun Chong, intending to threaten: "But you are the son of Emperor Li, why do you know what Yun Hongshan did so well? You still know Wuer Da Shi The matter of killing Empress Youan years ago, even the contents of the soul lock well in Yongtai Palace, is clear. Could it be...you and Yun Hongshan were once accomplices?"

Yun Chong could tell that the princess really hated him to death, and she wanted to dig a hole for him with every sentence, for fear that he would have to breathe a little more while alive.

"The princess is wronged."

Yun Chong was anxious, and his voice turned into tears, "Ten years ago, Da Zhou and my country of Yun were on good terms, and I was the crown prince of the country of Yun, so how could I be so provocative."

"I can know this because after the country was broken, I was really angry with Yun Hongshan's boss, so I asked someone to investigate. My dead man arrested Yun Hongshan's personal servant, and I personally interrogated him. "

In order to prove what he said was true, he hastily said again: "I brought him to Da Zhou this time, and Prince Lau Rui helped him to be detained in Prince Rui's mansion. If the Crown Prince and Princess Concubine want to interrogate him, they can Bring him back to Beiya, he is the best witness."

Prince Rui, who had been listening quietly by the side, nodded at the right time, and said to Chu Yan in a gentle voice, "I also heard about this from Mr. Yun before my wedding, so I should have told you the first time, but after thinking about it, The wedding and canonization ceremony are the most important, so I rushed to enter the palace today to introduce Mr. Yun to you, unexpectedly..."

After finishing speaking, he sighed silently.

Although he didn't say anything, his expression showed helplessness for Chu Yan treating Shen Lingxi so indulgently.

Shen Lingxi looked at him quietly.

Anyway, she had already lost her mind in front of this Prince Rui just now, so she simply stopped making detours and said directly: "His Royal Highness, I don't know something, can you please give me some pointers?"

Prince Rui didn't expect that Shen Lingxi would come to him suddenly, he straightened his back unconsciously, his voice trembled a little, "You, you say."

"How did His Highness meet Yun Chong? Yun Chong was a criminal committed by the imperial court. His Highness hid him in the mansion without reporting it...Why?" Shen Lingxi asked in a low voice.

Regarding this kind of problem, Prince Rui seems to have a countermeasure long ago, "I only found out about Mr. Yun's true identity this time. Over the years, I have recruited famous doctors to cure leg diseases. It was Mr. Yun who sent the good doctor from the family to him Give me, heal me. He is kind to me, and all he wants is to survive. Naturally, I will help if I can. No, I sent him directly to Liulang's residence."

"What a 'what he wants is to survive'." Shen Lingxi smiled and asked softly, "If it's just to survive, why did he still order people to kill Mu Xue'e, and even send dead soldiers to assassinate the queen?"Moreover, I saw just now that His Highness didn't seem surprised at Mu Xue'e's death? "
