Entertainment of Spring and Autumn

Chapter 507 Controversy

All the important officials of the imperial court, including Ji Wuyou and Liu Wanxi, gathered around Ji Qingyuan's bed, and everyone's face was ashen.

Xia Houdi's eyes were red with no tears, only boundless anger.

As she said to Xue Mu, no matter what bad intentions Ji Qingyuan had towards her, she had always been raised by Ji Qingyuan since she was a child. Ji Qingyuan was not bad to her and had a real father-daughter relationship.

Ji Qing was originally her father, and no matter whether he gave birth to a favor or nurtured it, it could never be erased.

Ji Qingyuan was poisoned. She kept investigating but found nothing. It can be seen that Liu Wanxi and Eunuch Li don't want to investigate...or maybe they think it's Ji Wuyou like Xue Mu...

It's not that she absolutely trusts Ji Wuyou, but this kind of thing requires evidence and cannot be based on speculation, right? So she is still investigating diligently.

But Liu Wanxi and Eunuch Li didn't want to investigate the matter in the inner palace. What could she do if she had no one to cooperate with her at the six gates? There was really nothing she could do.

It would be fine if the poisoner could not be found... but now he was actually assassinated... Looking at Ji Qingyuan, who was completely exhausted, Xia Houdi clenched his silver teeth and trembled all over.

Prime Minister Su Duancheng was angrily scolding Eunuch Li: "Eunuch, you hid it well. The magic power of Xingyue is the same as heaven and man. I didn't expect that our chief internal officer is actually the direct descendant of Xingyue!"

Eunuch Li was expressionless: "What Xiang Guo said is so funny. Shen Tu Zui was yelling and blaming, but Xiang Guo took it seriously? It seems that Xiang Guo and Shen Tu Zui had some communication."

Su Duancheng said angrily: "Xue Mu's alliance with the Demon Sect is known to the whole world. What else can we rely on if Xingyue Mieqing joins forces to kill the king?"

Eunuch Li said calmly: "The one formed by Xue Mu's alliance is the Six Paths, among which the Path of Destruction happens to be absent."

Su Duancheng sneered: "Who knows? I still have evidence here. Someone come!"

Following the words, several guards outside the door carried a person in. Everyone turned to look, but it was Ji Wuyong who had become a vegetative state.

Eunuch Li didn't even raise his eyes: "What does this mean?"

Su Duancheng said lightly: "King Yong was harmed by Xue Mu, and his brain was destroyed by poisonous gas. He cannot move or speak, but it does not mean that he has no hearing and memory. Just search the soul and explore the memory, and you will know that there were three people on his bed. On the side, plotting something to borrow seeds..."

Eunuch Li's eyelids twitched, and Liu Wanxi narrowed her eyes.

The atmosphere was quiet for a moment, and no one went to search for the soul, but almost everyone knew that if Su Duancheng dared to say this, it would definitely not be false.

Three people, borrowing seeds... who are they? You know it without asking.

In the silence, Liu Wanxi said calmly: "It's interesting that the Prime Minister would search for the soul of King Yong. What's the reason?"

"This is because I accidentally noticed it, and I did not deliberately search for souls." Ji Wuyou said calmly: "After my father was poisoned, I never visited my mother and concubine, and I never interacted with the two of them. This is because I have never been We know who the murderer is. It was just for my father's safety and I didn't dare to expose it easily... But now that my father has passed away, it's time for you two to reveal your true colors."

Everyone was whispering, a little horrified. No matter why Ji Wuyou went to search for Ji Wuyou's soul, it is no longer important. What is important is, is this the case?

Liu Wanxi and Eunuch Li looked at each other, feeling calm.

Xue Mu was thinking about the person who was his biggest imaginary enemy. He was indeed not easy to deal with. He seemed to be doing nothing and motionless, but in fact he knew everything and was just waiting to use it on the blade to launch a fatal blow.

But they weren't nervous either. Li Gonggong is dignified and invincible here. At least it is not difficult at all to run away with Liu Wanxi. But Liu Wanxi, who had been hanging up the curtain for several months, had her own magnanimity and was no longer easily panicked. What's more... she didn't borrow any seeds, so she could completely brush off such words.

"I don't know who the three people in the conversation that King Yong heard were. King Yong must be blind, and anyone can tell lies in his ears. Whoever claims to be is who he is. How can I prove it?" Liu Wanxi said lightly: "Yes. He said that I am plotting something, so where is the borrowed seed? The prince would bring one out for me to see."

Ji Wuyou smiled and said nothing.

Chen Qianzhen said: "The imperial concubine does not appear to be pregnant. This is nonsense."

The medical sage spoke, and everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Regardless of whether what Ji Wuyong heard was true or false, since there was no borrowed seed, the matter was not established. Liu Wanxi was deeply grateful that Xue Mu had never adopted the suggestion of borrowing seeds. Otherwise, everything would have been ruined by this trump card, but at least she could still handle it now.

Li Yingqing frowned and said: "It makes no sense to blame the imperial concubine for this matter. As everyone knows, the imperial concubine can only hang up the curtain when your majesty is sick. What good will your majesty's death do to the imperial concubine?"

"Who knows?" Su Duancheng said slowly: "I have been ordered by my manager, so I have to do it no matter how unwilling I am."

Liu Wanxi's willow eyebrows stood up, and she pointed out: "I have no cultivation, and it is known to the whole world. Why does Su Xiangfei want to drag me to the Demon Sect?"

Su Duancheng smiled, others don't know, as long as someone knows, they will naturally have ideas.

No one realized that the people on Ji Wuyou's side were so aggressive and even Ji Wuyou moved out. Naturally, everyone's minds were focused on whether Liu Wanxi and Eunuch Li were Xue Mu's. The arrangement was at most a question of whether the evidence was solid or not. No one even thought about Ji Wuyou, who should have benefited the most.

That's the purpose.

Eunuch Li could see it and said sadly: "I'm sorry to say this, but if I wanted to kill the king, I would have done it long ago. Why wait until now? There are some people who collude with the Qing Dao and intend to pour the sewage into this country." Pouring water on the seat is probably to cover up your ulterior motives, right?"

Su Duancheng said coldly: "Some evidence is very easy. I wonder if Eunuch Li dares to take a full blow from everyone here?"

"Why should I take a hit? You, Su Duancheng, give me a slap?"

Xia Houdi's brows furrowed as he saw the endless and evidence-free arguments.

"That's enough." Xiahou Dimuran said: "The shouting and shouting about the crime of massacre and throwing sewage can't be relied upon. King Yong's memory may also be a show. These things will be investigated slowly. The urgent need now is to issue an order to punish the devil. Let’s gather the righteous path, government and the public, to kill the path of love together, instead of causing trouble for each other here.”

Ji Wuyou immediately said: "The chief is right."

Xia Houdi glanced at Yu Qingchen, the commander of the shadow guards, and said calmly: "Eunuch Li failed to protect him well, so he was removed from the post of general manager and returned to the head of the worship hall. Eunuch Yu is responsible for the affairs in the palace and is preparing to hold the ceremony."

Yu Qingchen asked cautiously: "What code..."

Prime Minister Su Duancheng said: "A country cannot be without a king for a day, so naturally it is the ceremony for the crown prince's enthronement."

Xia Houdi was furious: "I'm talking about a funeral!"

Ji Wuyou said softly: "Of course the funeral should be held first, and the enthronement will be discussed later."

Several people praised: "The prince is thoughtful."

Xia Houdi felt a little more comfortable and said in a hoarse voice: "You go ahead and take care of the matter first. I will keep vigil for my father."

The important ministers had their own thoughts and slowly dispersed. Xiahou Dimuran stood beside Ji Qingyuan's bed, holding the handle of the knife tightly with his delicate hands, and the back of his hand was full of veins.

Liu Wanxi stood beside her and said nothing.

"It's not you." Xia Houdi whispered: "Neither Xue Mu nor you will destroy the great advantages of hanging curtains."

"Of course not me." Liu Wanxi said calmly: "I hope your father is alive more than anyone else. Xue Mu has told you this several times, right?"

Xiahoudi was silent.

Xue Mu's words echoed in my ears - I only hope that your father will live well, but your brothers may not.

Liu Wanxi said: "The prince never shows any traces in his actions. He uses the crime of massacre and the demon door... plus the so-called memory of Ji Wuyong's brain... everyone in the world will only fall into suspicion of whether Xue Mu is the mastermind. Here. His rise to power is the general trend. If he is not successful, no one will think about his problems."

Xiahoudi was still silent.

Liu Wanxi looked at her side face and knew that no matter how suspicious the world was about Xue Mu and her problems, at least Xia Houdi was really suspicious of Ji Wuyou. This was the result of Xue Mu's constant indoctrination in her ears.

The prince didn't ascend the throne for a day, and something happened just one day later. There are not many people who can really influence the change of the throne, and Xiahou Di, as a princess and the chief arrester of the six gates, is one of the most important influences. Neutral people like the three sects of the imperial court probably follow her inclinations. It is said that whoever wins Xiahoudi wins the world, even Wentian can see it...

Once Xia Houdi becomes really suspicious, there may still be changes in Ji Wuyou's ascension to the throne, but it is not such an inevitable trend.
