The common people who had seen that scene with their own eyes started boasting about it after returning home.
"Did you see what happened on the day of the temple fair?"
"Are you talking about the saint's body being protected by golden light? I've heard this hundreds of times, but I always feel like I'm bragging..."
"It's true! I saw with my own eyes that the murderer took out a dagger from his arms and stabbed the saint who was still a milk baby..."
"At this critical moment, dazzling golden light suddenly flashed from the saint's body, instantly illuminating the entire world..."
"Take it easy, the sun is so bright on the day of the temple fair, no matter how bright the golden light is, it won't be able to illuminate the heaven and the earth!"
"I'm getting into the mood, don't interrupt! As soon as the golden light appeared, the murderer's eyes flashed with disbelief, but he still boldly stepped forward and stabbed him..."
"Then what?"
"Then he was knocked unconscious by the golden light bomb!"
"The murderer didn't seem to be fainted, right? I remember that he seemed to have fallen to the ground..."
"This is not important. What is important is that the saint said thank you to us in the end!"
"Yes, the saint really cares about the people! She was afraid that something might slip through the net and be detrimental to us, so she even told us to go home quickly!"
"Really? I remember the saint said this, it seemed that she was trying not to hinder Jing Zhaoyin's investigation..."
"Oh, shut up! You just listen to what others say. Why do you keep interrupting me?"
"That's right, don't disturb us from listening to the saint's deeds!"
…
Because of word of mouth from the common people, more and more people know about the saint, and only those who respect her more.
The saint must have been blessed by God, otherwise how could she have the ability to protect her body with golden light?
With her in Dachu, their lives will definitely get better and better in the future!
Some of the civil and military officials who heard about this quietly put their thoughts aside.
Because since the saint came to court, her inner voice would often burst out, and everyone could still hear it.
Those who had evil thoughts in their hearts were frightened all day long, and even had evil thoughts towards the saint.
Now that I heard that the saint has a golden light to protect her body, no one dares to do anything about it, fearing that the chicken will be stolen but the rice will be lost.
When Emperor Chu Ming learned that his niece had been assassinated, his heart tightened and he was very angry.
He immediately issued an order: "This case must be investigated strictly, and anyone involved in the assassination of the Saint must be dealt with severely!"
He regretted not sending someone to protect Chu Siqing before.
Although his niece's voice can help him identify loyalties and provide advice, it can also easily arouse hatred!
Now, although Emperor Chu Ming knew that his niece had a golden body to protect her, in order to prevent accidents, he still sent her a female guard, who was responsible for protecting the saint on weekdays.
The emperor gave his daughter a bodyguard and carefully selected a girl. King Yu and Princess Yu accepted it with satisfaction.
Chu Siqing was so happy to know that Uncle Huang specially sent a young lady to follow him.
She ran to the front hall to see people, her face full of impatience.
When he arrived at the front hall, Chu Siqing saw that his parents were there, so he said hello first: "Father, the king, mother and concubine."
King Yu smiled and introduced: "Siqing is here. This sir is the bodyguard assigned to you by the emperor."
Princess Yu also joked: "Look at how anxious you are."
Chu Siqing looked up.
I saw a sassy woman in black standing in the hall. When he saw her, he solemnly worshiped: "I have seen the saint!"
Chu Siqing hurriedly helped her up with her chubby hands, smiling so hard she couldn't see her teeth: "Get up, what's your name?"
Her nymphomaniac disease relapsed, and her eyes gleamed with excitement.
What a beautiful lady! The temperament is also very unique!
The woman said respectfully: "My subordinate Yaozhen is the bodyguard given to the saint by the emperor. From now on, Yaozhen's master is you, the saint."
Yao Zhen is not scornful because Chu Siqing is a baby.
At this time, the system suddenly started buzzing in Chu Siqing's head.
[Host, you have found a treasure! This Yaozhen is one of the four great guards of the palace, with top-notch intelligence and martial arts! 】
[The emperor sent her to you, which shows how much he values you. If you have anything to do in the future, leave it to her! 】
Chu Siqing's eyes lit up, she held Yao Zhen's hand and said affectionately: "Then I will call you Sister Yao from now on, okay?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Yaozhen's eyes, and he hesitated: "This is against the rules, the saint should call me by my name..."
Chu Siqing hurriedly shook her hand and said in a sweet voice: "I'm still so young, you come and protect me. There's nothing wrong with me calling you Sister Yao!"
Yao Zhen heard the words and said: "Then follow the instructions of the saint."
Seeing that their daughter and the imperial guard were getting along well, Prince Yu and Princess naturally had no objections.
…
Within a few days, the person behind the assassination of the Saint was also found out.
Most of the people in this group were members of the Li and Yao families who had previously been sentenced to beheading and exiled for dereliction of duty and joint loan sharking.
There were also a few who fished in troubled waters, and some court officials were even implicated.
Because the suspects were so involved, the case was transferred to the Criminal Department.
Du Muqing, the Minister of Punishment, got the emperor's order and strictly investigated the people involved to pursue the matter to the end.
Many people were brought down in this case and sentenced to beheading regardless of their status.
For a while, no one dared to have evil intentions towards the saint.
When the Saint Assassination Case was transferred to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Jingzhao Yin Lu Huaiying also began to try Huang Manxiang's case.
When he was taken to Jingzhao Mansion, the head of Zhijinyuan named Pang Ming was still confident and arrogant.
Pang Ming glanced disdainfully at Huang Manxiang who was kneeling aside, and said to Jing Zhaoyin: "Master Lu, you arrested me, a sixth-rank official of the imperial court, without any evidence or evidence?"
After the bitch ran away, he sent people to look for her privately, but to his surprise, there was no news.
Even if he ran away, this Huang Manxiang was just a pariah. Is it possible that Jing Zhaoyin could do anything to him?
Lu Huaiying sneered and said: "How can it be without evidence? Come here, bring me the passerby certificate!"
Several women were brought to the church.
They all testified: "Huang Manxiang lives with Huang Manxiang in Pingan Lane. She often teaches textile skills to the neighbors on weekdays. We also care about her very much."
"That day, an adult came to Ping'an Lane and specifically wanted to see Huang Manxiang. The women heard a quarrel coming from her house, and then the adult came out angrily."
"The women immediately asked Huang Manxiang. It turned out that the gentleman wanted to buy out her loom and skills and not allow her to teach her skills to us."
"When they heard about this, the women were extremely sad. Then one day, Huang Manxiang suddenly disappeared. The women even reported it to the official, but there was no news."
Lu Huaiying pointed at Pang Ming and asked, "Is that the person in front of you?"
The women looked at him for a few times and confirmed: "Sir, it is indeed this man."
