The middle-aged Taoist nun never expected that things would turn out like this. After spitting out a mouthful of blood, she fainted and died, not knowing whether it was intentional or accidental.
Xu Yu and Yu Ke's faces were ashen, and they stared at Chen Chao, the murderous intent in their eyes was too strong and they could not hide it.
Chen Chao also looked at the two Qi Masters with a smile on his face, seemingly unconcerned.
He turned to look at Han Pu and asked, "How long will I have to carry this thing with me?"
Han Pu smiled, waved someone to unshackle Chen Chao, and asked, "Would you like to go to Dali Temple to sit down?"
"I've stayed in that place long enough. I'm going to go somewhere else." Chen Chao scratched his head and glanced at Xie Nandu.
Han Pu sighed: "You know that's not what I meant."
Chen Chao chuckled and did not answer.
Han Pu said no more and left with the three monks. They might have to stay in Dali Temple for a while.
Du Yushi stood up and looked at Chen Chao, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he thought about it and shook his head. He left here on his own and disappeared from everyone's sight.
Li Shilang also wanted to leave, but he suddenly remembered that this was the lobby of the Ministry of Justice, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Chen Chao looked at Xie Nandu and said, "There is nowhere to go."
Xie Nandu smiled and said, "I can ask someone to find you a house in the capital of the gods."
This kind of thing is not difficult for Xie.
Chen Chao pretended to be dumbfounded and said, "I heard that the scenery of the academy is very good."
"I live on the bank of Nanhu Lake. I have a small courtyard. When I sit by the window and look out, I will see a wonderful scenery."
Xie Nandu glanced at him and took the initiative to invite: "Would you like to sit down?"
"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey." Chen Chao smiled and nodded, looking a little happy.
Xie Nandu nodded, then looked at Wei Xu.
Wei Xu said: "Since I sent the little junior sister, I will naturally send the little junior sister back."
After saying this, Wei Xu saw that Xie Nandu was still looking at him, and then smiled and said: "The academy has never said that outsiders are not allowed in."
…
…
The joint trial of the three judicial departments that took place in the Criminal Department finally came to a conclusion before sunset.
But when the results came out, tonight was destined to be another sleepless night.
If it were just a story about a young guard who killed a monk without permission, then no matter how big the incident was, it would just be a story about the young man taking his life or the evidence he produced to wash away his grievances, so that the monks gave up.
But now that the boy is innocent, things are getting bigger and bigger.
The line of Southern Qi Practitioners dared to covet the dragon veins of the Liang Dynasty and sent out disciples to steal the dragon veins of the Liang Dynasty. This kind of thing was damaging the destiny of a dynasty. It would be fine if not too many people knew about it, but This matter is now well known to everyone.
What happened in the lobby of the Criminal Department cannot be covered up.
The moment Chen Chao took out the demon bead, the news had already spread.
That matter has gone from a guard envoy killing a monk from outside to a major issue between the Southern Qi Refiners lineage and the Liang Dynasty. If you are not careful, it may even become a major issue between the monks from outside and the Liang Dynasty. .
Therefore, when the brief news reached each mansion, no one could fall asleep.
Some people think further and are even more worried.
Many dignitaries with official status were thinking of waiting until tomorrow morning to go to the court meeting in person to see what His Majesty the Emperor's decree was.
They were so worried that they couldn't sleep all night, wondering what kind of turmoil the Liang Dynasty would suffer.
The Emperor Liang was indeed not asleep either.
But he was not worried about those so-called big things, but he felt that the moonlight was pretty good today, so he spent some time looking at the moon.
No matter how beautiful the moon is, you will actually feel a little lonely when you look at it alone.
So the queen is accompanying Emperor Liang.
As we all know, the Emperor and Empress of Liang had a very deep relationship. They met when they were young and stayed together all the way. From the princess to the queen, their deep relationship was known to everyone in the Liang Dynasty.
It is no accident to enjoy the moon tonight. In his spare time, the Emperor of Liang mostly stayed by the Queen's side.
The queen took the lantern from the female officer's hand, stepped back, picked up the lantern with her own hands, and walked forward with Emperor Liang.
In fact, the moonlight was enough to see the road ahead clearly, but the queen liked lanterns and would carry one whenever she could.
After walking a few steps, the queen said softly: "I heard that the dean's close disciple is not only good-looking, but also extremely smart. I really want to meet him."
Emperor Liang, who had been with her for all these years, naturally knew what she was thinking, and said with a smile, "That girl is pretty good, but it's not that easy to make her his daughter-in-law."
She was born in the Xie family and was now accepted as a close disciple by the dean. For such a girl, even if he promised to make her the future Empress of Liang, I am afraid that neither the Xie family nor the dean would agree easily.
"Then what is Your Majesty going to do?"
There was a gust of wind, and the candle light in the lantern held by the queen swayed. She looked down with a smile on her face.
The Emperor of Daliang naturally knew that she was not asking about the girl, so he smiled and said: "Empress, Qin Tianjian said before that the national fortune of Daliang Dynasty is prosperous and prosperous, far exceeding that of the previous dynasty."
The queen nodded and said: "When it comes to world peace, my country, the Liang Dynasty, is naturally far superior to the previous dynasties."
Emperor Daliang glanced at the moon hanging in the sky, and his expression became colder, "But they still think that I, Daliang Chao, are weak and can be bullied at will."
The queen was silent for a moment and said softly: "Where in the Liang Dynasty can I be bullied at will?"
After being together for so many years, how could the empress not know what Emperor Daliang wanted. Now that Emperor Daliang had made up his mind, she naturally only had support.
"This time, I will let the Southern Qi Refiner lineage bleed properly."
Emperor Liang took a deep breath and raised his arms, as if trying to break free from some shackles, "If I weren't the emperor..."
He hesitated to speak, but when he saw the queen's smiling face, Emperor Liang was too lazy to say the rest of the sentence. He just changed the topic and said: "That young man is quite good. He has already set foot in Shenzang at a young age, and he is quite thoughtful. Even I don’t know whose family he belongs to, so I’m a little embarrassed.”
The queen said: "He made a big fuss this time. He seems to be a smart man. Logically speaking, he still has merit, so why not reward him?"
"I have read his files. He has done very well in Tianqing County in the past few years. Even if this incident had not happened, I could have let him climb up. Although he is a little younger, it is not a big deal, but If I dare to throw him out of the divine capital at this moment, he will die a violent death in less than half a month."
Emperor Liang rubbed his brows and frowned: "Why don't you throw him into the Northern Territory Army and train for a few years? I hope this kid's life is long enough."
The queen smiled and said: "Since you can't make up your mind, just take a look. Now that he has survived, there should be many people in this divine city reaching out."
Emperor Liang was not satisfied and said: "The one in the north is already old. None of the generals in the army can match him. If I don't make some preparations, it will be troublesome for the north to fester in the future. However, the life experience of that young man is unknown. I I really don’t feel reassured.”
The queen was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Emperor Liang already valued him so much before even meeting the young man.
"How about we meet?" the queen suggested.
Emperor Liang thought for a while and snorted coldly, "Forget it, let me see if it is what I want first."
The Queen nodded, naturally having no objection.
She suddenly remembered something and said, "It seems like the time has come again this year."
Speaking of this matter, Emperor Liang frowned slightly and said, "When you get there, you'll get there. Just do whatever you want."
The queen knew that Emperor Liang was already irritable at this moment, but she still reminded him: "This year we are in the capital of God."
Emperor Liang looked indifferent, "It doesn't matter if you are in the capital of God, just do what you have to do."
He almost said what he said before again.
The queen thought to herself and said: "That Xie family's girl has just started to practice. I don't think she will be able to participate when she comes. There should still be a few talented people in the academy. As for Tianyuyuan, they can't go by all these years and still haven't cultivated them." A nice guy, right?"
Her expression was very serious, like a hardworking peasant woman counting how many chickens she had.
Emperor Liang looked at her, his irritability disappeared and he was in a good mood.
The Queen looked at him and said unhappily: "This is a big deal, do you really not care about it at all?"
Emperor Liang reached out and took the lantern. At this moment, the sky was not good, and the bright moon in the sky was blocked by clouds. If it weren't for this lantern, there would be only chaos between heaven and earth, and nothing could be seen clearly.
"That's right. It wouldn't be shameful to be embarrassed and left at your doorstep."
The queen said: "Then your majesty must be well prepared."
Emperor Liang waved his hand and said with a smile: "I understand."
…
…
The gods are not asleep at night, and there are so many things happening in the evening, so even at night, there are still many people busy.
The messages were passed around the mansions, and a thin piece of paper was passed into the small house next to Xie's ancestral hall.
The visitor stood in front of the willow tree for a moment and then left.
There was no sound in the room for a long time.
The old man in front of the ancestral hall was lying on the old chair, squinting at the moon tonight, feeling a little emotional.
"How about it?"
Suddenly, an old voice sounded, coming from the house.
The old man responded casually: "Of course it's good, he has enough thought and talent, but there are some problems with his background, and even we can't find it out. It's not a small problem."
"Actually, it's easy to guess if you can't find it. I guess it's one of those run-down houses. I just don't know if it's the biggest one."
The old man's voice was somewhat nostalgic, as if he was thinking of some old friends who had passed away while speaking.
The old man sighed: "If that family comes out, it will actually be very troublesome."
"Maybe not. After so many years, I guess they don't have any means anymore. Even if they have these means, do they have the dignity?" This time the old man's voice was full of sarcasm.
The old man chuckled and said, "What kind of face do you need if you can become a poor person? What kind of face do you need if you have already become an unlucky person?"
