All the ancestors in the capital begged me to be a substitute

Chapter 252

Shen Lingxi put her hand on the tip of Wuerda's nose.

There is no breathing.

At the same time, a white shadow was emerging from the top of the corpse's head.

Shen Lingxi took advantage of the time when Wuerda's soul was separated from his body, checked his body, and his forehead twitched.

It was death.

Was mad at her.

She didn't expect such a way of death.

Shen Lingxi turned to look at Chu Yan, "He's dead."

Chu Yan supported his chin with his hands, and his hearing was not weak, so he naturally heard the movement inside the prison the whole time.

He was not surprised by Urda's death.

"Shall I go there?" he asked.

Shen Lingxi glanced at Wuerda's dead soul and shook his head at him.

Seeing this, Chu Yan continued to wait outside, but there was a little more concern in her phoenix eyes, "If anything goes wrong, call me anytime."

He was worried that Wuerda's dead soul would disrespect Shen Lingxi.

Shen Lingxi smiled and nodded.

While the two were talking, Wuerda's dead soul had already floated up from the corpse, looking blankly at the scene in front of him.

Now that the person is dead, the eyes are naturally healed.

Just now, the dead souls following Shen Lingxi saw her and Wuerda confronting each other back and forth, and they only cared about eating melons, so they didn't make a sound.

At this moment, seeing that Wu Erda's old life died in just a few words, and the dead souls finally became active again.

Liu Meiren and a group of former and later concubines circled around Uerda.

It was related to the previous dynasty, and that was the old calendar they were most familiar with.

Unexpectedly, after so many years of death, he could still eat the melons from his previous dynasty.

Liu Meiren and the concubines had a great time.

"Who are you, the national teacher? His apprentice?"

"No, this age is not right."

"Is it an illegitimate child?"

A concubine boldly guessed: "I heard that the national teacher raised many women in the back house to bear him a son. Maybe this is his son. Otherwise, how could he be so filial and keep calling for his soul?"

"No, no." Liu Meiren shook her head and denied: "The national teacher's appearance was also the most beautiful man in the capital at our time. Can he give birth to such a crooked melon?"

"That's right, his appearance is definitely not the seed of a national teacher."

This discussion of several people acting as if no one else was there was not very harmful, but extremely insulting.

It made Urda abruptly skip the link of "how can I die?" and "I'm already dead?" This new soul cognition.

"Who are you? I have never met you, why do you slander me so much?" He asked in a deep voice.

"They are your master's masters." Shen Lingxi explained in a good voice: "If your master is alive, if you see them, you have to say 'Master Jin'an' to them."

Liu Meiren giggled and said, "That's right, that's right, when I was favored, I used to sit in the emperor's arms and listen to the national teacher sing a little song. Don't tell me, the national teacher is handsome. That good voice, let's sing a tune... Tsk, fairy!"

Wuerda has regarded the national teacher as his respect all his life, how could he tolerate such insults from others.

"Bold, presumptuous!" Wu Erda rushed in front of Liu Meiren, and was about to slap her in the face with his hand.

But Yun Hongshan stood in front of him: "Presumptuous, bold! How dare you hit a woman in front of me?!"

When Wuerda first saw Yunhong Mountain, he was startled in astonishment.

Liu Meiren raised her hand unceremoniously, and slapped Wuerda hard in the face.

Even though that slap passed through Wu Erda's soul body and did not cause any substantial impact, Liu Meiren's aura was very strong.

Urda stretched out his hands to cover his face in disbelief.

It doesn't hurt.

But in front of so many people, he felt greatly insulted.

When the three souls were arguing, the Xie sisters, Mrs. Xie, and Kui Jiu all surrounded him.

Coincidentally, they all died at the hands of Urda.

At this moment, everyone stared at him resentfully.

Ling Wu Erda, a new mourner who has not yet adapted to his identity, felt a slight chill rise from the soles of his feet.

"You, your souls are still alive?" Wuerda looked at Sister Xie with a pale face, "Since you are alive... then everything I have done these years is in vain..."

Except for Kui Nineteen, the rest of them were all locked in that strange magic circle by Uerda.

Shen Lingxi's eyebrows moved slightly.

It seems that, just as she swindled out just now, Wu Erda set up that weird soul-locking formation everywhere, really to summon the soul of the rumored national teacher.

Shen Lingxi did not forget that after discovering the secret room in the small courtyard of Yunjiang Prince's Mansion that day, she destroyed the magic circle and those black porcelain altars inside.

He also specially asked Xie Zhangting to stay in the secret room, and told her that if any ghosts appeared, she would pick them up.

Unexpectedly, until the end, Yun Hongshan was the only dead soul that appeared in that secret room.

This means that the dead souls in other jars have been "refined".

Could it be that the magic circle is really useful and can bring back the dead souls of the so-called national teachers?
Shen Lingxi couldn't believe it, and didn't dare not believe it.

After all, she is a lonely ghost who "resurrected".

She secretly kept this matter in her heart, but she replied to Wu Er on the face: "Yes, I can prove that what you did before was useless."

The last time Shen Lingxi spoke, Wuer Daxin had died not long ago, and was angry with Liu Meiren for slandering the national teacher in his heart, so he had no time to think about why Shen Lingxi could talk to him.

It was only at this moment that he suddenly realized what it was and looked straight at Shen Lingxi.

"Can you see me?"

Shen Lingxi had heard too much about this question, so she was too lazy to answer it.

Liu Meiren said with a smile: "Not only can she see you, but now that you are dead, she can also become you. Even if you don't want to say, she can say for you, surprise or not?"

Urda's face was gloomy.

He thought of the scene in front of the Yunjiang Palace.

At that time, he was hiding in the dark, and he could see clearly that it was the damned little girl in front of him who controlled Yun Hongshan's body with Yun Hongshan's broken arm.

He originally thought that this little girl knew how to manipulate puppet machines.

At present, it seems that he is thinking too shallowly.

"Who are you?" Wu Erda stared at her with sharp eyes: "You know the secret medicine of Yunguo Medicine Palace like the back of your hand, you know how to pull puppet with silk, and you have supernatural powers. Who are you?"

As soon as he asked this question, Yun Hongshan and Kui Nineteen, who knew Yunjiang very well, could not help but cast their eyes on Shen Lingxi.

They also wondered why this young woman from Da Zhou knew Yun Jiang so well.

Shen Lingxi looked at Wu Erda with a half-smile, "If you tell me where you obtained the secret medicine of 'Enchanted Heart' ten years ago and used it on Queen You'an, I will answer your question, how about it?"

Ten years ago, Yao Gong was still under the firm control of Da Si Ming.

The secret medicine of the Medicine Palace, not to mention Wu Erda, even if Yun Hongshan came to the Medicine Palace to ask for it, he might not be able to get it.

But Wu Erda not only got the "Drunk Heart", but also used it on Queen You'an unscrupulously.

Even until now, he still carries a large amount of secret medicine from the Medicine Palace.

Shen Lingxi also wanted to know.

Who is Yao Gong's internal response?

After her death, everyone in Yaogong died on the holy mountain. Does it have anything to do with him?
Urda pursed his lips and remained silent.

Although he is dead, Shen Lingxi is alive.

Some secrets can never be known to the living.

Shen Lingxi had already expected such a reaction from him, so she smiled and did not continue to ask.

In short, as long as Wuerda's dead soul is there, he will show his feet one day, and she has enough patience to wait.

Thinking so, she turned around and walked towards Chu Yan...

*
The news of Wuerda's death was reported to the emperor by Chu Yan in person that night.

Along with it, there was also Wu Erda's "personally" written statement.

The confession confessed in detail how Wu Erda, as a remnant of the previous dynasty, got into Yunjiang, how he encouraged Yun Hongshan to approach Xie's family, and how he teamed up with Xie Wenlang to kill Xie Zhangting and harm Xie Zhanghua.

In the confession, he also used Xie Zhanghua's death to threaten the Mu family, and how he cooperated with the Mu family to get Xie Wenlang to hand over Mrs. Xie's blood book, so as to provoke a dispute between Xie and Mu. , clearly.

Emperor Longyan was very happy, and it happened to be early in the court, so he ordered someone to read this confession in public.

In order to protect himself, Xie Wenlang naturally refused to admit it.

There are also officials who have a good relationship with Xie Wenlang, who risk their lives to question the authenticity of this confession.

After all, Wu Erda is dead, so how can the confession of "painting and arresting" be taken seriously when there is no proof of death.

They were all thinking of denying it, but they forgot that the newly promoted prince and princess are masters who rule "no evidence of death".

Chu Yan sent the Embroidered Clothes Envoy to Tongwuguan to find out the thug who was instigated by Xie Wenlang to beat Xie Zhangting ten years ago, and brought him to the hall to testify against Xie Wenlang.

At the same time, Shen Lingxi's record of Xie Zhangting's coffin examination outside Qixia Town was also presented to the officials as evidence.

With all the witnesses and physical evidence, Xie Wenlang still wants to quibble——

Chu Yan simply asked for Wuerda's body to be carried up to the Hall of Qinzheng, with the intention of asking Su Xian and Shen Lingxi to make Wuerda's corpse confront Xie Wenlang again.

After all, Xie Wenlang didn't have the guts to confront the corpse.

The white cloth on the corpse had not been removed yet, Xie Wenlang knew that the situation was over, so he bowed his head and confessed.

The emperor's imperial pen, Zhu Zhu, dismissed Xie Wen from his position as the magistrate of Langhai Prefecture. He was sentenced to death by hanging for the crime of hiring murderers and mutilating brothers and sisters.

The third house of the Xie family did not report what they knew and was exiled for three thousand miles.

With the blood letter handwritten by Mrs. Xie as evidence, and Chu Yan finding out the sachet that Mrs. Xie gave to Xie Zhanghua back then, the Mu family colluded with Uerda before Dazhou and Yunguo started the war.

The Mu family indirectly killed Empress You'an, deceived the emperor and concealed the report, the emperor Nian Zai, the old Duke Cheng'en, was dead, and ordered the deprivation of Duke Cheng'en's title and relegation to a commoner.

Mu Huai'an made great achievements in capturing Wu'erda, and he was named General Xiaoqi, and led the Mu family army to garrison Yunjiang.

The spiritual seat of Queen You'an was placed in the Taimiao, and the coffin was buried in the imperial mausoleum.

Xiao Yuanfeng was hanged for murdering her husband and committing adultery.

Yun Chao let others destroy his father's body and was hanged.

The emperor also personally named Yun Wang, the eighth son of Yunhong Mountain, the king of Yunjiang.

So far, the death of Xie Zhanghua and Xie Zhangting has been settled.

Although the Mu family was deposed, at least the queen was saved, and Mu Huai'an was still leading the Mu family's army.

The Xie family had three families and one branch, and the first and second families hibernated, and still had a bit of strength to spare.

The Mu family and the Xie family are aristocratic families who made great military exploits when they fought with the Taizu.

Urda tried his best to set up a ten-year overall situation. Although he did not completely overthrow them, it also seriously injured his vitality.

It's just that this result is far from what Wu Erda planned.

He turned sullenly in front of Shen Lingxi: "If you hadn't spoiled my good deeds, how could it be just today's situation!"

No one knew that when he killed Xie Zhanghua, he specially designed for the young Chu Yan to witness Xie Zhanghua's death with his own eyes, and since then he has buried his demons.

If Shen Lingxi hadn't intervened.

Not only can he manipulate the Mu family, but he can also cause disturbances in the court and eradicate the families that harmed the national teacher one by one.

He could even take advantage of Chu Yan's inner demons and play with him in the applause.

But now, his grand plan and great cause have not even begun...

Shen Lingxi looked at Wuerda insightfully and smiled.

Too lazy to talk to him, when he was angry and unprepared, and wandering around him, he directly brought him within a foot of Chu Yan.

"what!!!"

With a "bang", Wu Erda's soul body was bounced hard like a ball.

It was completely quiet.

Xie Zhangting's case is closed.

Shen Lingxi invited Su Xian to save Xie Zhangting.

At the request of Xie Zhangting and Xie Zhanghua, the magic circle was set up in the East Palace, the place where Xie Zhanghua jumped from the rockery and fell to pieces.

Xie Zhangting saw Xie Wenlang being imprisoned with her own eyes, and she had completely let go of her worries. After saying goodbye to Xie Zhanghua, she entered the magic circle, and her soul and body disappeared into little stars.

From the beginning to the end, she never went back to Xie's house to take a look.

The third grandpa Xie and the third old lady may not have been ignorant of what Xie Wenlang did back then.

They are also accomplices.

The pain of being murdered by a close relative will never be forgiven, and will never be forgiven.

Xie Zhanghua also used Shen Lingxi's mouth to bid farewell to Chu Yan, "Now that I have avenged my grievances, and I see that you two are deeply in love as a husband and wife, you trust each other, and you can work together to overcome difficulties, and you have no regrets."

"May I go here to take away your inner demons and help you let go of your knots. From now on, you don't have to be trapped by the nightmares of the past. I only hope that you will be safe and happy for the rest of your life, and grow old with you..."

"Okay." Chu Yan followed Shen Lingxi's gaze, looked towards the direction of nothingness where Xie Zhanghua's soul was, and lowered his eyebrows to promise: "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely grow old with Lingxi."

Xie Zhanghua smiled with tears in his eyes, walked into Su Xianchao's magic circle, his soul also turned into little stars and disappeared into the air.

After Xie Zhanghua's soul disappeared, Chu Yan held her broken bracelet and stood in Su Xian's magic circle with her eyes downcast, without saying a word for a long time.

Shen Lingxi has done so many white things for so many years, knowing that this is Chu Yan's deep heart, bid farewell to Xie Zhanghua, and his demons who witnessed Xie Zhanghua's death in childhood.

From ancient times to the present, regardless of whether the funeral ceremony is complicated or simple, it is essentially a farewell to the deceased.

The dead are gone, the living are like this.

Only by saying goodbye well can we let go of our sadness and look forward.

Shen Lingxi turned and left silently. She knew that what Chu Yan needed most at this moment was not the comfort of others, but the space to be alone.

She went to look for Yunhong Mountain.

Originally, Yun Hongshan knew that Su Xian was going to save Xie Zhangting, and planned to go with Xie Zhangting, but was stopped by Liu Meiren in a cool tone:
"Don't add bad luck to others, harm others for a lifetime, and continue to follow shamelessly, be careful of being sent to the animal realm, and be a pig and dog prince in the next life."

Yun Hongshan's soul trembled.

He can't go to the beast way.

So, he hid at the highest place and watched Xie Zhangting's salvation ceremony from afar.

Xu is Yun Hongshan's heart, after all, he still has true admiration and guilt for Xie Zhangting.

Seeing that Xie Zhangting's soul dissipated, the color of his soul became much lighter.

This is a sign that the soul is starting to dissipate.

Shen Lingxi asked quietly behind him: "Back then, when the soldiers of the Great Zhou came to the city, you were the one who tricked Emperor Li into treating Yun Xi as a human sacrifice and pushing him down the tower?"

"After Yunxi's death, the holy mountain was destroyed, and everyone in the Medicine Palace died tragically. Who is the one who really gave the order?"
