"This mark appeared between the eyebrows of Marquis Ru Yin, and it was not released by me."
Huo Qubing said: "Her Royal Highness the Princess should also have seen the flash of fire between his eyebrows."
Princess Pingyang said calmly: "You should also know that our clan members have been affected by the fate of the country. Apart from Your Majesty, there are at most one or two people in each generation who have the Qi to practice to a high level.
The rest of the side branches may be able to practice, but we, the main clan members, have almost no practice, so we are deceived by foreign officials like you. "
What she meant was that she didn't practice cultivation and she couldn't see the reality of the situation at that time. She relied solely on what Huo Qubing said.
"Now my husband Ruyinhou is lying there, unconscious.
And you broke into my mansion last night to commit murder. If I hadn't sent the guards over in time, you might have ended up lying here like Xia Hou. "
Princess Pingyang dared to gather so many clans, she had already considered everything, and then said:
"The people who rushed into my house last night were all the people I led.
I only ask you, why do you rush into my mansion and approach the inner chamber of a clan princess? What do you want to do?
Even if Xiahou really made a mistake as you said. His identity, before His Majesty said anything, in what capacity did you attack him and break into my house? "
Princess Pingyang said that Huo Qubing brought the people there, which meant that if Cao Qiao and others came forward to testify, it would not be credible, so Huo Qubing's escape route should be blocked first.
And the key point she focused on was asking Huo Qubing why he broke into her mansion.
As long as this was confirmed, Huo Qubing had something to do with what happened last night.
Princess Pingyang's voice was slow but powerful: "Huo Qubing, if I hadn't allowed you to be born, would you be where you are today?
In the past few years, you have become increasingly arrogant and arrogant. I don’t care about you, but you think I am easy to bully?
I was thinking of your mother's affection in my house, so I didn't want to meet you as a descendant, but you took my kindness as weakness and wanted to kill my husband-in-law. Today, I will try my best to let His Majesty see clearly what you are! "
After Princess Pingyang finished speaking, Liu She also glanced at the flame mark in Huo Qubing's hand.
This matter must not be allowed to happen again... Liu She's thoughts flashed away and he paused on his crutches, as if he could not suppress his excitement:
"Your Majesty, please allow me to say a few more words."
He turned his attention to Huo Qubing: "Your military power is granted by the emperor, from my Liu family clan!
As a minister and a general, it is your duty to conquer foreign tribes and protect the stability of the Han Dynasty. The merits you have made are all due to His Majesty’s grace and regard.
You should exercise power based on merit, shouldn't you? "
Liu She's momentum was overwhelming: "Let me ask you again, did I give you the power to use it to deal with my clan?
You alone want to humiliate a clan princess? "
Dong Zhongshu, who was sitting quietly aside, couldn't help but feel a little angry after listening to this for a long time.
Because Liu She's insinuations were not only aimed at Huo Qubing, but also at the entire vassal system.
The implication behind the words is that the world belongs to the clan, and it is the duty of ministers to do good things and know their own position.
Gongsun Hong, Zhang Tang, Li Cai and others also heard the meaning of Liu She's words, their brows furrowed imperceptibly, and they all looked at the flame mark in Huo Qubing's hand.
Based on their understanding of Huo Qubing, he has always acted decisively.
The mark in his hand must be of vital importance, and there is an inside story that no one knows. Otherwise, he would not let things develop step by step and let himself be so passive.
This is not the plan and means that a military strategist should have.
What secrets are hidden in this flaming mark?
Liu Jue, Liu Yan and other members of the clan were also paying attention to the mark on Huo Qubing's hand.
Liu Yan, an old hermaphrodite, suddenly said: "Everyone knows that the champion has excellent talent in the practice of cultivation.
He is a little arrogant, which I think is understandable. You see, he knows that we have no practice, so we created such a weird flame mark.
I don't know what this mark does, but as Ping Yang said, he brought all the people last night, and they have advanced cultivation, so there are too many opportunities to do anything. "
The implication is that no matter what evidence Huo Qubing presents, it cannot be trusted.
The few people talked to each other, and they were sure that Huo Qubing would have no chance of recurrence, so they said: "I will ask His Majesty to judge!"
"Your Majesty, please make the decision... severely punish this disrespectful and ungrateful minister."
"Everyone has finished speaking."
Only then did Huo Qubing push the flaming mark in his hand to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty will know what's going on at a glance.
If I were to activate this mark directly, the elders would probably say that I was using secret methods to deceive their sharp eyes, and they would have to trouble Your Majesty to take action. "
The emperor stretched out his hand to hold it, and the mark fell into his hand.
His eyesight is unfathomable, and he can see through the reality with just a glance, and his pupils shrink for a moment.
"This is an array of marks formed by intertwining mantras. Once it is activated, the soul will be damaged at the slightest, and if the time is longer, it will kill the person. If Ru Yinhou fainted, it was because he was invaded by the power of this mark." The emperor said.
The imprint is in a state of countless intertwined and rhythmic lines, intricately coiled.
After examining it carefully, the emperor added: "The qi contained in this mantra must not only be formed by an artifact close to the immortal level, but also must be cultivated to at least the seventh realm of heaven and human beings before it can be stimulated to be derived and hidden in the world." There is a very exquisite arrangement in Ru Yinhou's body.
This is not something of Ru Yinhou himself. "
Liu She and Princess Pingyang exchanged glances:
"Your Majesty, please don't trust what Huo Qubing has presented. No matter how much he defends himself, he is just trying to confuse right and wrong."
"The fluctuations contained in this mark require the assistance of specific artifacts. And even with such artifacts, Qubing's level of practice is not enough. He can suppress this thing only with the help of a hundred thousand forbidden troops.
What's more, making this thing requires dividing the soul to do it, and the fluctuations and breaths within it are not exclusive to Qubing.
The fluctuation of the soul cannot be faked. "
After the emperor finished speaking, he suddenly sacrificed the mark in his hand.
I saw the mark falling on Ruyinhou Xiahou Po, who was lying on his back on the low couch motionless.
When Huo Qubing made his move last night, the symbol was inspired by Xiahou Po and emerged from between his eyebrows. Then it exploded and flames poured out.
At this moment, controlled by the emperor himself, it returned to the center of Ru Yinhou's eyebrows, but it did the opposite, showing a state of contraction.
A strange scene appeared.
There are other marks in Ru Yinhou's body. From the center of his eyebrows, he was pulled out by that mark.
The emperor stretched out his hand to grab it, and the mark slowly retracted and fell back into his hand.
Subsequently, as many as seven or eight marks were pulled out from Ru Yinhou's eyebrows, forming a complete array of marks in the emperor's hand, shining brightly.
"Your Majesty, this mark...did you know it wasn't Huo Qubing's method?"
Liu She reminded: "He dared to do the following sinful things, so it's not surprising that he had prepared in advance. And even if he couldn't do it himself, couldn't he find someone else to arrange it?
I heard that Dong Zhongshu’s cultivation reached the late stage of heaven and human realm. "
Dong Zhongshu snorted lightly, and someone sat next to him, and disaster came from the sky.
Suddenly he was dragged into the dispute and took the blame.
"The aura of this mark and the changes it contains are not my Confucian practice at all." Dong Zhongshu said that he was innocent and could not bear the blame.
The emperor ignored Liu She and looked down at the mark:
"Last night, you saw this kind of arrangement in Ru Yinhou's body. You didn't attack him, but you wanted to prevent him from triggering this kind of mark arrangement?"
This was what the emperor said to Huo Qubing.
"That's right."
Huo Qubing said eloquently: "My analysis is that there are probably two people in the Marquis of Ruyin. One of them is the real Marquis of Ruyin, and the one who meets His Majesty is the real one every time. Otherwise, given His Majesty's cultivation, even though his internal arrangements are exquisite, Facing His Majesty’s face may also expose you.”
"There is also a fake Marquis of Ruyin, who cooperates with the real one. He has been dormant beside Princess Pingyang for many years and wanders around the clan as a foreign relative.
Only in this way can some things be explained. "
At that moment last night, it was the spirit weapon talisman in Huo Qubing's body that presciently caught some changes and gave him an early warning.
The ancient well at that time even reflected a picture in Huo Qubing's consciousness.
Among them is the scene where a certain qi mechanism in Ru Yinhou's body is induced, exploding into flames, and burning like self-immolation.
Huo Qubing made a sudden move, stopped Ru Yinhou, and absorbed the mark between his eyebrows induced by it, ending this change and holding the evidence in his hand.
"His Majesty……"
Princess Pingyang said sadly: "Your Majesty, please watch carefully, this man is so eloquent.
I am very familiar with my husband-in-law, Marquis Ruyin. The theory that there are two of them is pure fiction. He is plotting against you, Marquis Ruyin, and he is plotting against me. If it is true as he said, wouldn't I...have two husbands-in-law, talk nonsense, and slander me and the Han clan?
If your majesty still misses the friendship between my sister and brother over the years, don't protect him. "
The emperor sighed and said to Huo Qubing: "Go on!"
"At that time, I discovered that there was something strange in Ru Yinhou's body, and took action to prevent him from committing suicide."
"Marquis Ruyin is fine, why do you set fire to commit suicide?" the clan members asked in unison.
"Xiahou was fine before you came, but he committed suicide when you came? What you said, Huo Qubing, makes no sense, how can you convince others?" Princess Pingyang's face turned pale, and she realized that something was wrong, so she argued forcefully.
Huo Qubing looked at the fainting Marquis Ruyin: "Because he is someone else's pawn, and you, Princess, are also being plotted."
Huo Qubing stretched out his hand and sent out a breath from the air, towards the center of Ruyin Hou's eyebrows.
The next moment, Ru Yinhou showed a twisted and painful expression on his face, showing signs of waking up.
"Marquis Ruyin, what have you done in these years? To practice magic, you need to have sex with different women, steal women's souls, etc. You must do this from the real point of view!" Huo Qubing said.
"I don't think it's appropriate for Huo Qubing to send his breath into Marquis Ru Yin's body..." Liu She shouted.
The emperor looked sideways and said, "Liu She, do you think he is stupid enough to do something in front of me? Or do you think I am so stupid that I only know how to protect him?"
Sit down for me. If you dare to say random things again, slap your own tongue. "
Liu She pursed her lips.
Relying on his seniority, this was the first time that he was scolded by the emperor in public.
At this time, Marquis Ruyin almost murmured in his sleep: "The method of charming the soul that I have cultivated can allow the soul to enter the dream, seize the power of a woman's essence at the most exciting moment, and achieve her own success.
It took me twelve years to practice the art of enchanting souls to the stage where I can transform my soul into form, without leaving any trace. There are countless women who have been picked off by me.
Back then, Princess Pingyang's husband was newly deceased, and I used the technique of falling into a dream to make her happy, which made her feel close to me invisibly, and then she took the initiative to ask to marry Marquis Ruyin..."
Princess Pingyang screamed: "Shut up... Huo Qubing, you are slandering me!"
At this time, the study was completely quiet, and breathing could be heard.
What Huo Qubing said is coming true one by one.
Princess Pingyang’s big melon burst.
Liu She, Liu Yan and others looked at each other.
They began to realize that what was in front of them was like a hole dug by Huo Qubing. And they voluntarily jumped into the pit and buried themselves in it.
Their original intention was to use this incident to suppress foreign ministers.
But the current development has obviously deviated from the original intention... I don't know what else will be exposed in the future.
Huo Qubing continued to ask Ruyinhou: "Are you really Ruyinhou? What is your hidden identity?"
"I am Marquis Ruyin, and I am not..."
As soon as these words came out, Dong Zhongshu let out a sigh of relief.
Zhang Tang's stern face relaxed slightly.
Li Cai smiled.
The old Prime Minister Gongsun Hong stretched out his hand and stroked his beard, feeling relieved.
