Chapter 256 Luo Zhi's Charge
Hearing this, Shen Liuzhen frowned, turned around and waited to see who the witness he was talking about was.

When seeing the witness walk in, Shen Liuzhen showed a dazed expression, not only not nervous, but also smiled confidently.

And this contemptuous smile didn't even mean to avoid others, so everyone could see it.

Coupled with the unreasonable accusations made by He Languang and He'an earlier, even the soldiers standing guard next to them couldn't help but feel that it was obvious that the Xianbei people banded together to frame the Han people again...

Who is this witness?

He was the one who was sent by He'an to assassinate Shen Liuzhen, but Xie Yuan sent the arrow flying with the palm of his hand.

The witness has no rank or rank, just an ordinary soldier who kneels on the ground and reports: "The villain's name is Liubumu, he is a soldier under the command of Lord Muhe, and he has seen Lord Chongsu."

Prince Chongsu was not very interested, he let out a long breath not obviously, and asked: "What kind of evidence do you want to testify, tell me."

"Yes... I was hunting with the army that day, and I was among them. I was in charge of looking for the white deer with other soldiers. Later, I got separated from them, and when I was hunting a flying pheasant, I accidentally injured the imperial envoy by mistake. Lord Shen."

Upon hearing this, Shen Liuzhen sneered loudly with his sleeves in his hands: "Oh! Accidental injury..."

Liubumu didn't look at him, and didn't look up, as if reciting a book, he continued:
"The villain was frightened and stupid at the time, thinking that he was about to lose his life because he accidentally killed the imperial envoy, but the maidservant who was riding with him swiftly raised her hand and shot my arrow away. Being decisive and quick is definitely not something that ordinary people can do, and the villain can conclude that the maid must be a master of skill."

After hearing this, Lord Chongsu asked a little tiredly: "Okay, let's believe what you said for now, that girl is very skilled, so how did she harm Prince Muhe? Could it be that a girl with extraordinary skill can win the battle against all the generals?" Among them, one person killed a seasoned military general, and those four personal soldiers, and pretended to be an accidental death?"

He An took a step forward and said: "My lord... I don't know exactly how she got it, but there were traces of someone cutting some bloody grass at the scene, so my father was definitely murdered, isn't it?" Why did you fall into a trap by mistake and die? Just imagine, if you fall into a trap by mistake, how could there be blood stains near the trap?"

Prince Chongsu's eyes lit up suddenly, he looked at He'an's expression fiercely, and did not speak for a long time.

He An also had a firm face, looking at him calmly.

After a while, Lord Chongsu returned to his lackluster tone and asked, "Then how can this matter have something to do with the imperial envoy at that time, Shen Shizhong?"

"Liubumu, tell me." He An turned his head and said to the kneeling man on the ground.

"Yes... my lord, at that time I was mistaken for an assassin by the guard of honor dispatched by Shen Qin. I was afraid that I would die, so I ran away in fright. I wanted to ask Lord Muhe to intercede with me. As soon as I arrived, I saw a woman in a red skirt shoot an arrow at the prince, assassinate him, but the shot missed.

But no one else saw her, they only saw me... Coupled with the reminder and pursuit of the guard of honor, I ran away in desperation and didn't pay attention to her whereabouts. Only later did I know that she stayed behind and waited for an opportunity to kill Mu He Lord..."

As Liubumu said, he slammed his head on the ground deeply, and said with regret:

"It's all my fault. I was greedy for life and afraid of death. I didn't warn you in time, so Prince Muhe was murdered by the traitor."

He An was extremely excited when he heard this, and said through gritted teeth: "My lord, besides, our people later discovered that beside those traps, the bloody grass was cut and dropped all the way, and they were able to track down to Shen Liuzhen's rest We were monitoring him, but he set up a screen as a cover, and he and that maidservant could not be seen for a long time. It was he who sent that maidservant to take advantage of the chaos to kill my father! It is absolutely true, my lord! Shen Liuzhen is a wolf with ambition , to assassinate the commander-in-chief of our army, and to overthrow our court of the Xianbei people, he must be cut into pieces!"

Shen Liuzhen's brows twitched, this crime is really big enough.

Moreover, He'an is not stupid. Although he relied on pre-booking the murderer, he was able to understand the general process of committing the crime clearly, and he was also close to each other, which shows that he really worked hard.

But...hehe...fighting with him?

Shen Liuzhen lowered his eyelids, and asked in a calm voice, "Are you finished?" That tone, like the depressing calm before the storm, attracted everyone's attention to him.

Mr. He'an glared at Shen Liuzhen, still unwilling, and said to Lord Chongsu who was seated:
"Your Majesty, this man is treacherous and cunning. He talks nonsense as soon as he opens his mouth, and turns his Majesty around. I beg you, Your Majesty, to eliminate harm for the country!"

"He An Jun!" Shen Liuzhen raised his eyes and stared straight at him, and said in a high-pitched tone with awe-inspiring righteousness:
"When you're done talking, it's up to me!...Could it be that you fabricate accusations to frame others, and don't even give them a chance to defend themselves?!"

"I……"

"My lord!" Shen Liuzhen took a step towards the middle, bowed his hands in salute, and the wide sleeves of the scholar's robe formed a door.He bowed his head and said,

"Your Majesty is going to die wronged by Lord He'an. As an imperial envoy, I patrolled for His Majesty, but someone sent assassins to assassinate me one after another. The first time I was at the Inn in Jiaoliang City, a Xianbei assassin wanted to kill me in the middle of the night. The servant girl blocked the knife for me and escaped by chance, and the assassin was captured and killed by my guards. The local county magistrate and all the governors of the military town know this, and they can all testify to me."

"You spitting blood, what does your being stabbed have to do with me?!" Mr. He'an sneered and said.

Shen Liuzhen ignored him, and then said smoothly:
"At first, I thought it was just a little Xianbei thief, but when I found out from the county magistrate that we had just captured and killed the assassin, the people in the same inn didn't know what happened. Someone went to The county government filed a complaint, saying that I had killed a Xianbei man.

So... Could it be the work of a little thief?I have to think, who is in the way of my status as an imperial envoy? "

"It has nothing to do with me! Do you have evidence?" Jun Hean said angrily again.

Shen Liuzhen suddenly turned his head to look at Shi Yu He'an, and asked in a loud and deafening voice:

"I said it has something to do with you, Mr. He'an?!"

As soon as these words came out, Shi Yu He'an was stunned... He became quiet, and everyone became quiet.

After a long while, He'an finally came to his senses, blushing, and asked in a panic: "Then what do you mean by this? Don't you imply that it has something to do with us?!"

"I didn't know who did it at the time, but now the ironclad evidence is in front of me, which means that you sent someone to assassinate me! The witnesses are all here, how dare you deny it?!" Shen Liuzhen stretched out his hand and knelt beside him The Six Step Wood.
