Chapter 183 Princess Xiao Jinger

The sudden scene made everyone present at a loss.

After a brief moment of astonishment, everyone immediately understood what Li Lingyue did.

Although King Yu could not speak or write with his hands, he could convey signals by blinking his eyes under the guidance of outsiders.

Li Lingyue took advantage of the opportunity and quickly asked the next question:
"My lord, if you are being murdered, just blink three times in a row!"

The paralyzed Li Fengyang seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw. As soon as Li Lingyue finished speaking, he immediately blinked his eyes, no more, no less, exactly three times, and the onlookers immediately started to boo.

"Oh my god! Look! The prince really blinked!"

"Sure enough, he blinked three times in a row. It seems that the prince was indeed killed by an adulterer!"

"If you dare to murder the old prince, we will find out the murderer and punish him severely."

"Silence, silence!" Zhao Weiting calmed down everyone's voices with some excitement, then looked at Li Fengyang and opened his mouth to hit the point.

"My lord, is your murderer... the princess?"

When the word "princess" was uttered, the whole place was silent. Everyone's eyes were focused on King Yu's eyes, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn and terrifying.

The next moment, Prince Yu looked directly at Li Lingyue, keeping his eyes wide open without blinking. His neck twisted with difficulty, as if he was shaking his head in denial.

After about ten seconds, the answer was very obvious. The princess was not the murderer of King Yu.

The tense atmosphere was like a glacier thawing. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. He Shan immediately jumped out and shouted:
"Hahaha, let's see. King Yu personally proved the princess's innocence. If anyone dares to slander the princess again, I will take him back to Dali Temple to await trial!"

After He Shan threatened him like this, the minor scholars and officials apologized to Li Lingyue with fists in their hands.

"I listened to the rumors and misunderstood the princess. Please forgive me!"

"Yes, if it weren't for the prince's proof, I would still be kept in the dark. Princess, forgive me!"

"..."

Li Lingyue smiled and nodded calmly to the guests. She looked calm and relaxed, but in fact her palms were already dripping with cold sweat.

If she hadn't been forced into a desperate situation and had to clear away the suspicion, she wouldn't have been willing to take the risk and use this killer move.

Because in her opinion, Prince Yu was unreliable. After all, he had sent someone to assassinate her. She and Prince Yu's palace had already formed a relationship. She did not dare to be 100% sure whether Prince Yu would bite her back. She could only take a gamble.

I bet in King Yu's heart that the real culprit who murdered him was more important than framing him. I bet that the way King Yu looked at me was not as sinister and hateful as before.

Fortunately, she won the bet.

With King Yu's proof, Li Lingyue no longer had any scruples, and immediately asked Li Changxiao, who had a gloomy face:

"Prince, you should be satisfied now. If you still believe that Pindao is the murderer, I'm afraid I can only falsely accuse Pindao of using sorcery to control Prince Yu's mind. I wonder what the reason is?"

After saying that, he looked at Yu Zhenzi again and continued: "Senior brother, does our Tiandao Sect have this kind of magic? Tell the prince quickly, lest he slander me again." In one sentence, all excuses were blocked. Dead, Tiandao Sect is the state religion appointed by the Tang Dynasty. Who dares to slander them for using sorcery? No matter how despicable Li Changxiao is, he would not dare to throw dirty water on Tiandao Sect. Furthermore, Yu Zhenzi, as a Taoist Celestial Master, will never She would not admit that her fellow disciple Li Lingyue had used sorcery, which would be detrimental to her and the sect.

When the words came to this point, Yu Zhenzi had to stand up and clarify face to face: "Our Tiandao Sect only has the magic of hanging pots to help the world, and there is absolutely no magic to seek wealth and harm lives. Since the princess is my Taoist disciple, it is better to be cautious. !”

When Yu Zhenzi said this, Li Changxiao had to keep it in his heart no matter how unwilling he was. He tried to calm down his anger, forced a smile, and apologized to Li Lingyue:

"Just now, I was eager to find the murderer and save my father, so I believed the rumors and accidentally injured the princess. Now that the truth has come to light, please don't blame the princess!"

Li Lingyue, who successfully cleared away the suspicion, accepted Li Changxiao's apology magnanimously. After the other party finished his salute, he pretended to be polite:
"The prince has killed Pindao. Pindao is used to being falsely accused. He won't be able to see the same level as a young man. The top priority is to find the real culprit!"

After her reminder, everyone focused on King Yu again. Zhao Weiting cupped his hands towards King Yu and continued to ask:
"My lord, is your murderer in this hall?"

William Chan's questions were extremely precise and he narrowed down the scope immediately. King Yu's eyes blinked three times in a row, and everyone gasped when they saw this. Everyone knew that as long as they asked one by one, the murderer would definitely surface.

Li Changxiao turned pale and hurriedly winked at Xiao Jing'er who was beside King Yu. The latter picked up the medicine bowl on the table and hurriedly poured the medicine into King Yu's mouth. Then his hand slipped and all the medicine in the bowl poured onto King Yu's chest. In front of him, Xiao Jing'er's face changed, and she quickly took out her handkerchief to wipe the soup.

"My lord, please forgive me. It's all my fault for being clumsy!"

Seeing this, Li Changxiao quickly ordered loudly: "Quick! Take my father down to change clothes quickly, don't catch the cold again!"

The sudden change made Li Lingyue's heart tremble, and she immediately realized that there must be something fishy going on.

Before she could speak, He Lanmin, who was behind her, took two steps forward and hurriedly interjected before Prince Yu was carried off:
"My lord, the murderer who murdered you was Princess Yu!"

King Yu's fat cheeks trembled, he hesitated, and finally blinked his eyes three times.

Good guy, it turns out that the real murderer is the princess who is accompanying King Yu.

This result shocked everyone in the hall.

"How dare you, you convict Mrs. Xiao, plot to murder the prince of the dynasty!" Zhao Weiting shouted angrily and directly called the princess "Ms. Xiao".

When the others saw this, they were filled with indignation and furiously attacked Xiao Jing'er.

Xiao Jing'er has been pampered since she was a child, and she has never seen such a scene of being accused. When the guests scolded her, she was so frightened that she turned pale with horror. She waved her arms in panic and cried: "It's not the slave's fault. The slave's family is wronged!"

After saying that, he looked at Li Changxiao in the audience and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, tell them quickly, the slave family is not the murderer, Your Majesty!"

Li Changxiao's shoulders slumped and he almost collapsed on the ground. Fortunately, the chief steward Kang Shun had quick eyesight and quick hands to support him. Regardless of Li Changxiao who was in despair, he rushed to the guard outside the door and ordered:

"Come here, take down the convict woman who murdered the prince!"

Li Changxiao was awakened by Kang Shun's voice and immediately echoed: "Yes! Lock me up in the back house and keep you under strict supervision!"

Li Changxiao understood Kang Shun's intention. As long as the princess was in Prince Yu's palace, it was not up to Prince Yu's palace to decide how to interrogate him. At that time, he could just make up a reason to cover up the crime of patricide, sacrifice a woman, and ensure the safety of the prince. Reputation, that's the key.

At this moment, two voices sounded at the same time, Li Lingyue and Zhao Weiting shouted in unison:
"Wait a minute!"
