Chapter 263

Emperor Jianxi did not speak, and after a while, he let out a series of shocking sneers.

Qiu Shi's hand holding the candlestick trembled a little, and he looked at Emperor Jianxi with a somewhat dazed gaze - he couldn't remember the last time he saw Emperor Jianxi fly into such a rage.The emperor has always talked about self-cultivation and self-cultivation. Over the years, although he looks majestic, he rarely gets angry.

Today, this is nothing more than the nonsense of some of the underlings...how could it make the Holy Majesty so unhappy?

Emperor Jianxi stopped looking at Bo Ling, and turned his gaze to the four trembling palace servants on the ground. With a terrifying smile, he shouted loudly, "Yuan Zhen! Where is Yuan Zhen? Call Yuan Zhenlai!"

Huang Chongde was the first to react, turned around and walked out. After a while, Yuan Zhen trotted into the house with his head down.

"The servant is here."

Emperor Jianxi pointed to the tearful palace servants on the ground, "Take these four bullying slaves to the Punishment Division! Let them explain sentence by sentence what each word they said just now means!"

The two palace servants who had been recording behind the screen stood up at this moment, and handed the confession in their hands to Yuan Zhen. Yuan Zhen put the confession in his sleeve directly, and glanced at the four palaces of Chuxiu Palace behind him. The man replied in a very soft voice, "Yes."

Lin Jieyu let out a sudden sigh at this moment, and called out "Your Majesty" in a low voice.

"Shut up! Don't call me!" Emperor Jianxi suddenly turned his head, "Do you still think you don't have enough things on your body?"

This sound was as sharp as thunder, but Ning Bi's heart turned cold when he heard it.

After the fire at Donglin Temple, the emperor did not take any action on Chuxiu Palace. She thought that the emperor probably didn't know that Lin Jieyu had placed an eyeliner in Chengqian Palace, and the fire happened the day before the imperial concubine sent Bai Ling up the mountain.

But now it seems that the emperor should know.

He just pretended not to know, pretended not to see how many suspicious clues there were.

"Your Majesty, what does this have to do with my concubines?" Lin Jieyu's voice was a bit sad, "It is obvious that Bai Ling cast a demon to make these people in the concubine's palace lose their minds and talk nonsense in front of the imperial court. Yu, you saw the situation just now—”

Emperor Jianxi breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head to look at Zhang Shenxian, "Tianshi, what do you think?"

At this moment, Bai Ling really saw the black-robed Taoist standing next to Emperor Jianxi—the Taoist robe he was wearing was very similar to the one that Emperor Jianxi wore every day, except that it was not hemmed with gold thread.

This Taoist, honored by Emperor Jianxi as "Tianshi", has a solemn face. He has a long black beard and soft eyebrows, but his eyebrows are very light. Those eyes that are neither sad nor happy are always half-opened, only revealing in a few moments. A little bit sharper.

In front of Emperor Jianxi, Zhang Shenxian always hunched his back slightly. Emperor Jianxi was already tall and straight among men, but he was a few inches taller than Emperor Jianxi.

Such a body shape, such a face, supplemented by the unique reserve of a Taoist, made him look like an outsider.

"Your Majesty, this pharmacist is not using any demonic techniques." Zhang Shenxian said indifferently, "It seems that it is the 'Zhu Youshu' of my Taoist sect."

"Zhu Youshu...?" Concubine Ning frowned slightly, "What is that, can the celestial master explain it again?"

Immortal Zhang said in a calm voice, "The so-called 'blessing' is a curse; the 'from' is the root of the disease. Wishing you is to wish for the cause of the disease, and to cure the disease with the curse."

"curse……?"

"In ancient times, witches and doctors originally came from the same source." Zhang Shenxian said softly, "Your Majesty, don't be too nervous."

Everyone in the room listened quietly. According to Zhang Shenxian's narration, Zhu Youshu is a kind of secret technique originated from witch doctor. It was gradually separated from witchcraft in the inheritance and became a unique healing method in the Taoist sect. method.

However, more than a hundred years ago, this technique was banned by the Taoist sect because it was abused by some people for profit. Only a few disciples with high moral character and talent were allowed to practice it.

As he spoke, he slowly turned to Bai Ling, "Pin Dao sees that Si Yao has already practiced Zhu Youshu so well at such a young age, which shows that he has a deep relationship with Dao... I don't know which expert mastered this technique. To teach medicine?"

Bai Ling looked at the person in front of her, and didn't know how to respond for a moment—she hadn't heard a single word from this Taoist's mouth.

After a moment of hesitation, Bo Ling still decided to remain silent, lest his timid words would make the situation worse.

Qiu Shi was a little anxious watching from the side, and reminded softly, "Hey, why are you shaking your head? If Zhang Shenxian asks you, just say it."

"No need." Zhang Shenxian had already withdrawn his gaze, and he said softly, "Everyone has their own destiny, if the expert is unwilling to disclose his whereabouts, but this pharmacist has spoken his name, this fate That's all for now."

Bo Ling nodded along the way, and looked at Zhang Shenxian with emotion.

Sure enough, if you give the expert some clues, the expert can tell the story by himself.

At the side, Qu's heart was really relieved at this time, she looked at the Taoist devoutly, and said sincerely, "... I have been taught, and the celestial master is well-informed."

Zhang Shenxian's face was as usual, but she just bowed slightly to show her humility.

After identifying Bai Ling's hypnotism, Zhang Shenxian quickly asked Emperor Jianxi to resign. Before leaving, he asked about Bai Ling's name and the way it was written. Everyone watched Zhang Shenxian go out together.

Things became clearer.

Concubine Ning looked at Lin Jieyu in the corner with a mocking smile, waiting for Emperor Jianxi's disposal.

"What else do you want to say?" Emperor Jianxi asked in a low voice.

Lin Jieyu shook her head and knelt down in front of Emperor Jianxi.

Tears slowly rolled down her smooth cheeks, she looked at the ground in a daze, and said softly, "...it is the concubine's lax discipline that made Jin Zhi make such a big mistake. Please the emperor... punish."

Concubine Ning suddenly felt her ears tingling—annoyed.

She stared at Lin Jieyu's pretty face, and just wanted to step forward and slap her hard.

"Is it because the discipline is not strict, and Jin Zhi is also sent to the Punishment Department for interrogation, and then everything will be known!" Ning Concubine said coldly from the side, "Now you want to get rid of yourself in a hurry? Lin, what are you doing?" You can't live without committing crimes! Do you think you can escape?"

Lin Jieyu smiled sadly, "Where is the Punishment Department... The person who sent it there, didn't the lady just say what she wanted her to say?"

She lowered her head to wipe away her tears, then looked up at Emperor Jianxi, her voice filled with infinite fatigue and sadness, "But Jin Zhi's crimes are serious and I cannot escape the blame. Embarrassing..."

Emperor Jianxi did not speak.

Lin Jieyu looked at Concubine Ning again, "The concubine just doesn't understand, why is my sister so anxious to throw trouble on me? The servants do some shady things behind their master's back, there are too many in the palace... Every time you Are you all so righteous?"

Concubine Ning laughed angrily, and said coldly, "I don't have any tolerance for sand in my eyes, did you just hear about it today?"

"That's good," Lin Jieyu nodded, with stubborn grievances in her eyes, "This concubine wanted to save some face for the imperial concubine, but since the concubine Ning is so hard-pressed, I also You don’t need to be too sentimental anymore—ask Ning Concubine, is it also the imperial concubine who instigated Bai Ling to have an affair with the guards in the Imperial Garden, and to have a private meeting with his lover in Donglin Temple?”
