Shen Luoxi frowned slightly. What the man said was both surprising and reasonable.
She met Cang Yunxuan's eyes calmly, and Cang Yunxuan raised his eyes to look at the emperor.
"Your Majesty, there is no need for the princess to do such a thing."
"The princess and Deputy General Zhou have no grievances, and they even rescued the poisoned soldiers. On the contrary, Deputy General Zhou has been blocking the princess from rescuing people, trying to delay time and let the soldiers die."
The emperor did not listen to a word he said, but continued to ask other soldiers, and they all got the same answer.
He looked at Cang Yunxuan and Shen Luoxi calmly, and his voice was a little colder.
"What else do you want to say?"
Shen Luoxi glanced at Cang Yunxuan and saw the warning in his eyes, signaling her not to talk nonsense.
She rolled her eyes in her mind and raised her eyes to look at the emperor, "I have a question to ask them. Please allow your permission."
The emperor nodded, and then Shen Luoxi spoke.
"You said I framed Vice General Zhou, but tell me why I did this?"
Those soldiers didn't dare to look at her at all. They just lowered their heads and replied stiffly as if they were giving an endorsement, "His Royal Highness Xuan Wang has long disliked Vice General Zhou and has been looking for opportunities to get rid of him."
"Although Vice General Zhou poisoned everyone, it was not a fatal poison. The crime will not lead to death. In order to avoid future troubles, His Highness Prince Xuan colluded with the princess to make Vice General Zhou irrecoverable, and this is why he was killed."
When Shen Luoxi heard this, his eyes turned cold.
King Lian really knew Cang Yunxuan's purpose very clearly.
She looked at the few people who came to testify, her hands clenched into fists, and her expression was unconceivably tangled, which showed that she was not willing.
Mr. Li immediately echoed: "Your Majesty, these people are all soldiers who have gone to the battlefield with His Highness King Xuan and experienced life and death! Even they said this, it must be because they can't stand what His Highness King Xuan and the princess did. !”
"I sincerely request the Emperor to take back His Highness King Xuan's military power. We can no longer allow His Highness King Xuan to dominate the military camp!"
The emperor looked at Cang Yunxuan with a stern face, but Cang Yunxuan still defended himself unhurriedly.
"This is not the first time I have experienced such slander. I have always fulfilled my duties and have never exceeded my limits, but I have been targeted again and again."
"I fought on the battlefield for the sake of the emperor and the world, and narrowly escaped death. However, Mr. Li fabricated an unfounded crime to pin on me. No matter what, I will not admit it."
Even though Cang Yunxuan was kneeling, her body was still as straight as a pine, and a trace of evil flashed in Mr. Li's eyes.
He knew that Cang Yunxuan was not easy to deal with, so he didn't expect to make Cang Yunxuan bow his head, but Shen Luoxi was a weak woman and might not be able to withstand it.
A woman raised in a boudoir has never experienced anything like this.
Mr. Li's eyes flashed, he looked up at Shen Luoxi, his voice was a little more oppressive.
"Princess, so many soldiers have identified you. If you continue to deny it, when the emperor finds out, you and His Highness Prince Xuan will not be as simple as being scolded."
"The emperor is aware of everything and will clear my name and the prince's innocence." Shen Luoxi said calmly: "It's just that judging from the current situation, there will be many obstacles for the emperor to investigate."
"Master Li, do you think so?"
Mr. Li was stunned for a moment, and his face turned red when he came to his senses.
Shen Luoxi actually dared to criticize him in front of the emperor!
He looked at the emperor with his peripheral vision and saw that the emperor's expression had not changed. He was slightly relieved. As long as the emperor did not doubt him, he would still have a chance!
"Is the princess falsely accusing me? I didn't expect that the princess's ability to beat someone up is really great. No wonder Vice Zhou will be forced to death."
Shen Luoxi ignored him, but looked at the emperor, "I have something to ask of you, please grant your permission."
"Say." The emperor said calmly.
"I want to feel the pulse of those soldiers."
As soon as Shen Luoxi finished speaking, the soldiers suddenly stiffened and said hurriedly, "I'm okay!"
The emperor turned to look at them, his emotions invisible, "That's right."
The soldiers panicked and subconsciously looked at Mr. Li, who also had a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.
When he saw Shen Luoxi getting up and walking towards the soldiers, he immediately stopped him, "In front of the Emperor, will the princess do what she did to Vice General Zhou again?"
"Or maybe the princess wants to kill them so that they die without any evidence?"
Shen Luoxi looked at him with a half-smile, "Why are you so nervous, Mr. Li? Is it possible that Mr. Li is afraid that I will find out something?"
Mr. Li's expression was distorted for a moment, "I'm just worried that innocent people will suffer again, so I'm more cautious!"
Shen Luoxi smiled and said, "Master Li's worry is not unreasonable. In that case, I won't get close."
"Please also ask the emperor to prepare silk thread for me. I will hang the silk thread to diagnose the pulse, and I can also feel the pulse for them."
Master Li sneered, his tone full of ridicule, "Even the palace doctors, only two of them can diagnose the pulse with silk thread. Is the princess exaggerating too much?"
He looked at Shen Luoxi with contempt, not believing that Shen Luoxi could do this.
Shen Luoxi raised his eyebrows, and before the palace maid could get the silk thread, he lowered his head and tore the cuff of his sleeve and pulled out a piece of silk thread.
She held up the silk thread and said to the emperor: "In order to avoid Mr. Li's suspicion, I will use this thread to diagnose my pulse soon. However, I want to make a bet with Mr. Li. If I can use the silk thread to diagnose my pulse and accurately say solve their problems..."
"I want Mr. Li to kneel down and apologize!"
Master Li frowned, Shen Luoxi said in such a loud tone, why didn't he realize that Xiang Shen, a woman, was so arrogant before?
He squinted his eyes and looked at Shen Luoxi, "What if the princess loses?"
"Then we will accept what you have told us." Shen Luoxi said coldly: "But the prince and I are clean and honest, we have a clear conscience for what we do, and we will never allow anyone to frame us up!"
After saying that, she handed the silk threads to the eunuchs and asked them to tie them on the hands of several soldiers.
Mr. Li smiled, turned around and saluted the emperor, "I am willing to make a bet with the princess!"
Cang Yunxuan also spoke at this time, "I and the princess will advance and retreat together."
The emperor glanced at them expressionlessly and nodded slowly.
Everyone focused their attention on Shen Luoxi. Shen Luoxi wrapped a few threads around his fingertips, closed his eyes and quietly felt the pulses of several soldiers.
When she opened her eyes, her eyes became sharp.
As she expected, these soldiers were indeed poisoned, otherwise they wouldn't have come here to testify against her and Cang Yunxuan.
Shen Luoxi lowered his fingertips and saluted the emperor, "Your Majesty, all of them have been poisoned by the poison called Xue Ku San. If there is no antidote, they will die of blood exhaustion."
"All it takes is a cut on their fingertips to prove whether my words are true or false."
The emperor frowned slightly and turned to look at them.
The next moment, the soldiers suddenly fell to the ground.
Mr. Li seized the opportunity and shouted, "Come on, take down the princess quickly!"
