Dead people.
The fourth prince's face was gloomy, and the eldest princess Leyang stumbled to the ground. Those who were watching felt a chill down their backs. No one thought that this matter would lead to the dispatch of the black-armored guards, but in the face of Canglang, No one spoke to stop him.
At first glance, it seems that someone has set up a trap to set up a trap. At this time, whoever stops him must have something evil in his heart.
The black-armored guards came very quickly. First, the thirty black-armored guards who accompanied Tang Ning into the mountain surrounded the front and back doors of Lingyun Temple. In less than an hour, the sound of horse hooves and the light of fire surrounded the entire Lingyun Temple.
All the pilgrims were invited to the main hall of the temple and stood separately on both sides.
Master Xin Deng was also invited over. At this time, he, Zhuo Wu and several monks from the temple were sitting in front of the temple. Next to them were Princess Ji, the fourth prince, Princess Leyang, Mrs. Fu, Rong Yue and Tang Ning. .
The hall was extremely quiet. After a moment, a black-armored guard came out of the back hall, walked up to the people and said to Canglang: "Commander Cang, all three people inside have been checked and they are indeed poisoned by mountain otter bones."
"Mountain otter bones?" Mrs. Fu frowned.
"It is an extremely powerful poison. It is poisonous and will wither without a partner. The medicinal properties of this medicine are extremely overbearing. After taking it, you have to have sex with someone to save your life. Moreover, the person who gave the medicine is still using lamp oil and incense candles in the Buddhist temple. It is mixed with coriander seeds and datura pollen, which can cause hallucinations and paralyze the five senses."
Everyone was stunned, and someone whispered: "No wonder, the door of the Buddhist hall was knocked open just now. Sun Yi didn't seem to hear such a big movement..."
Princess Leyang said sharply: "I just said that someone framed Yi'er!!"
The black-armored guard ignored Princess Leyang who was shouting to catch the thief, and just continued: "However, among the three people, only the fourth prince and Sun Yi had mountain otter bone poison, and the dead man was There is an aphrodisiac called Trembling Jiao, and the fourth prince's concubine is also contaminated with some of it."
"This substance is not uncommon, and its medicinal properties are not as overbearing as mountain otter bone. It is often used in some fireworks alleys and brothels in Beijing as an aphrodisiac."
Everyone in the palace was in an uproar.
"Why are there two more medicines?"
"Yes, it's enough to harm one kind of person, why do you want to harm two kinds of people?"
When Princess Leyang heard the "trembling voice", her face turned pale, she opened her mouth and said urgently: "Since it has been found out that someone framed Yi'er and the others, I will take him back to Beijing first..."
"The matter hasn't been found out yet, why are the eldest princess so anxious?" Rongyue said coldly.
Qian Qiyue stood behind Tang Ning and said coolly: "I'm afraid it's not a thief with a guilty conscience."
Tang Ning glanced at the pale-faced Princess Leyang, then raised her head to look at the person who spoke: "Has the identity of the dead person been found out?"
The black-armored guard was very respectful to Tang Ning: "If you go back to the county master, we have done an autopsy on him. Although this man is an adult, he is slender and has many marks of whipping and scratching on his body. He had this hidden among his clothes."
He held something in both hands and handed it to Canglang. Canglang glanced at it and said, "The sign of Chun'en Tower."
Everyone's expressions changed, Chun'en Tower? That's not a famous men's style shop in Beijing.
At this time, it was not easy to open a brothel in the capital. It required official approval before it could be operated. Moreover, the prostitutes and brothels in the building were not free because they had sold their bodies, but some of them were allowed to do so. When Yun was walking outside, this sign was equivalent to the "identity book" they left in Beijing.
The people in the hall thought of the dead man who was carried out just now. He was indeed beautiful, with delicate eyebrows. When his slender neck was drooped, he was a little more charming than a man. He was not too charming when he was pressed by Sun Yi. How unconventional, the relationship is actually that of a man?
"How do people from such a filthy place enter Lingyun Temple?!" Princess Ji said angrily.
The monks in Lingyun Temple all looked extremely unhappy. Master Jiwu said solemnly: "Although the temple does not discriminate against them, there are no such people coming to tonight's Dharma gathering."
"Master didn't lie."
Canglang held a thick stack of brochures in his hand: "There are many pilgrims at the Bon Festival. Lingyun Temple is afraid of the crowds and the lack of food in the temple hall, so it has registered all the people who come to stay in the temple. Not only all the nobles, but also the accompanying guards, maids and servants are also on the list."
The black-armored guard who spoke earlier said: "I have been ordered by Commander Cang to check all the people staying overnight in the temple. Except for the four princes and concubines who were involved in the incident, only Princess Leyang is missing one of her attendants. .”
"Eldest Princess, I also asked you where your tall maid went?"
Swish——
Everyone in the palace looked at her. Princess Leyang forced her face and said angrily: "I, I am not used to the food in the temple, so I asked her to go down the mountain to buy it..."
"Really? What's her name? When will she leave the temple? Where will she go shopping?"
"I……"
"The carriages and horses of the eldest princess's palace are still in the temple, and there are even all the slaves driving the carriages. How did the maid get down the mountain and return to the capital on foot? The eldest princess never thought that she would be so mean and let a maid walk down the mountain to buy food for you. Bar?"
The eldest princess turned pale when Cang Lang asked: "I, what does the people in my palace have to do with you?"
"Of course the people in your house have nothing to do with me, but now a manservant who has never appeared in the temple has died inexplicably. The eldest princess is missing one person. Could it be that the manservant was brought up the mountain by the eldest princess?"
"Don't talk nonsense!!"
Princess Leyang was panicked. She wanted to ruin Song Tangning's reputation, but at this time everyone was suspicious of her, but she was at a loss when looking at her.
Her voice was sharp: "What does that person have to do with me? I have never seen him before. Besides, it was my son who was killed tonight. You people in the Privy Council can't even think of slandering me..."
"Then Princess, please explain. As soon as the door of the Buddhist hall was opened, why did you scold Tang Ning for being shameless without even seeing clearly, as if you already knew who the person inside was?" Rong Yue asked coldly.
"I...I..."
"Later, when you saw Tang Ning and Master Wu and the others outside together, your face was full of disbelief, and you blurted out that it shouldn't be Tang Ning inside, so why?!"
Grand Duke Leyang was so open-mouthed that she didn't know how to refute. At that time, she was only happy and wanted to embarrass Song Tangning in front of others. How did she know that the person inside was not Song Tangning? Then she suddenly saw the person who was supposed to be in the Buddhist hall. Outside, she blurted out the words in shock and had no time to take them back.
Princess Leyang pinched her palms tightly and broke out in cold sweat on her forehead.
Rongyue continued to press, "Why didn't the eldest princess speak? With so many people present at that time, wouldn't the eldest princess say that I heard wrong?"
"I...Rong Yue, don't go too far..."
"Am I going too far? I just want to demand the truth. What's too much?"
Seeing Princess Leyang's figure tensed, her lips trembling slightly, her face was whiter than paper.
Rong Yue sneered: "The eldest princess is always shirk- ing and refusing to tell the truth. Is it because she hasn't figured out how to argue yet, or because what happened tonight was that you wanted to plot against my family Tang Ning, but you angered the gods and Buddhas and sent down the punishment from heaven. Are you reaping the consequences?!"
