Jie teaches the Immortal Sweeping Heaven’s Cultivation of All Heavens

Chapter 597 Anle Hou 16
Liu Shu moved his ears. No matter how softly the palace maid spoke, Liu Shu could hear clearly what she said.

It turned out that Concubine Pang had someone secretly replace the Queen's medicine with an abortion pill.

After all, the queen and the emperor had done something, what if she was lucky enough to get pregnant?

Considering the child's status, Zhao Zhen had no choice but to accept it and let the queen continue to stay in her position.

But this is not good for Concubine Pang. Concubine Pang is obsessed with the position of Queen. Now there is such a good opportunity, how could Concubine Pang allow it?
Even if the queen was really pregnant, she would have to abort it.

Liu Shu heard it but pretended not to hear it.

Compared to whether the child really exists, the sister is naturally more important.

After talking with Concubine Pang for a while, Liu Shu said goodbye and left.

Walking on the streets of Bianliang City, Liu Shu saw Zhan Zhao again and greeted him.

Zhan Zhao also greeted Liu Shu in a friendly manner.

The last time he competed in martial arts and drank with Bai Yutang, Zhan Zhao and Liu Shu also became friends.

At this time, a group of people passed by them.

The one riding in the front was a young man, who looked very excited, as if he was very proud of something.

Zhan Zhao saw Liu Shu staring at the man and said to him, "That is Yang Zhuangyuan, the top scorer in the gold exam."

Liu Shu: No wonder the horse gallops so fast in the spring breeze.

Liu Shu withdrew his gaze, chatted with Zhan Zhao for a few more words, and then returned to Pang Mansion.

The next day, Liu Shu heard the news.

The top scholar is dead!
It seems like he died because his blood was sucked out!
Liu Heng: "..."

Being the top scholar in Zhao Zhenchao's dynasty was truly a dangerous profession.

A Chen Shimei was beheaded by Bao Gong.

A Zhou top scholar, a real or fake top scholar, was blind, his tendons were cut and he became mute.

Another top scholar was sucked to death by someone...

The gossiping servant said, "It is said that the murderer is a man named Zhang Zhen, who was kindly invited to his home by the number one scholar. But who knew that he had evil intentions and killed the number one scholar."

Liu Shu felt that the name sounded familiar.

He didn't think much about it. Zhang Zhen was not the murderer. Mr. Bao would definitely find out the truth.

But not long after, Zhan Zhao came to find Liu Shu and asked Liu Shu to go to Kaifeng Prefecture for help.

"Ask me for help?" Liu Shu was surprised.

Zhan Zhao nodded: "Before in Shicheng, thanks to you for distinguishing me from Mr. Bao. This time, Mr. Bao wants you to distinguish between two people."

Liu Shu was puzzled: "Who is it?"

Zhan Zhao: "The young lady from Lord Jin's house."

Liu Shu: “Huh?”

Miss Jin? Zhang Zhen?

Liu Shu suddenly remembered, isn’t this the same plot as “The Mermaid”?
In order to repay Zhang Zhen, the carp spirit transformed into the appearance of Zhang Zhen's fiancée Jin Mudan to meet Zhang Zhen, encouraged Zhang Zhen to study hard for the imperial examinations, and developed a human-demon love affair with Zhang Zhen.

Liu Shu has seen two versions of The Mermaid, and the ending of the Mermaid played by Bao Gong is relatively good.

Another version of the plot that claims that true love is invincible makes Liu Shu want to complain.

The carp spirit transformed into the golden peony to have a secret meeting with a man. Doesn't this ruin the reputation of a young lady from a noble family?

In the end, the carp spirit gained a good reputation for being loyal and righteous, while Golden Peony's reputation was completely ruined.

How cruel this was for an ancient woman!
Anyway, Liu Shu didn't like that version of the mermaid.

He didn't have a very good impression of the carp spirit.

It is true that this carp spirit is naive and simple, but being too naive is not suitable for this society and will only bring trouble to others.

Liu Shu followed Zhan Zhao to Kaifeng Mansion. Now, the two Jin Mudan stood on each side of the lobby, staring at each other.

Zhang Zhen and the people from the Jin family stood next to the two people respectively, and both believed that the Jin Mudan next to them was the real one.

"Meet Mr. Bao."

Liu Shu bowed slightly to Mr. Bao.

Mr. Bao hurriedly said, "Young Marquis, there is no need to be so polite. Please help me see which of these two Miss Jin is the real one."

Liu Shu didn't even need to look carefully, just look at whoever Zhang Zhen stood next to, that person was the fake Jin Mudan.

But he still gathered his spiritual energy into his eyes and looked carefully.

The evil aura on the carp spirit is very light, but it does have a bit of fairy air.

Liu Shu said to the woman next to Zhang Zhen: "You are a carp spirit, right? Why don't you quickly change back to your original appearance? Do you want me to help you return to your original appearance?"

The carp spirit was shocked.

Who is this young man? How could he tell my identity?

She didn't want to believe that Liu Shu had the ability to make herself visible, so she forced herself to say, "What nonsense are you talking about? I am Miss Jin Mudan of the Jin family, not some carp spirit. Don't slander me."

Seeing that the carp demon refused to repent, Liu Shu sneered and took action.

He struck out with a palm wind containing spiritual power, and the carp spirit hurriedly dodged.

Wouldn't this dodge expose her identity?
Miss Jin is a lady from a wealthy family and she doesn't know any martial arts at all.

The carp spirit is not a demon fairy like Master Roshi, and its magic has not been fully mastered. It is not Liu Shu's job at all.

However, Liu Shu only made that one strike and did not take any further action. After that, it was the turn of the guard Zhan to take over.

Guard Zhan was very powerful and the carp demon was no match for him and was captured by Guard Zhan.

Only then did Zhang Zhen realize that the person she was dating was a fairy. She was so scared that she stepped back and hid behind Zhang Long.

Seeing Zhang Zhen's reaction, the carp spirit was not disappointed. Instead, he shouted, "Mr. Zhang, I don't want to harm you or lie to you. I just want to repay you. I want to encourage you and help you as Miss Jin."

Zhang Zhen was somewhat moved by what he heard and couldn't help but walk out from behind Zhang Long.

The carp spirit was moved: "Mr. Zhang."

Zhang Zhen: "Miss, thank you for all you have done for me. Don't you know your name?"

Carp Spirit: "My name is Xiaolian."

Zhang Zhen: "Miss Xiaolian."

Jin Mudan was so angry that she almost vomited blood.

If you want to repay a favor, use your looks.

What to do with my looks?
You're having a secret meeting with a man in the middle of the night. Do you want me to be drowned?
And Zhang Zhen, what’s that expression on your face?
If you really think that fairy is good, then you should marry her.

Jin Mudan now agrees with her father's decision to cancel the engagement.

She doesn't want a husband like this.

Here, the housekeeper of the top scholar showed up and said, "The one who testified for Zhang Zhen was a monster, so her testimony is unreliable. Our master must have been killed by Zhang Zhen. Please ask Master Bao to make the decision for our master."

Bao said solemnly: "Although Miss Xiaolian is a monster, it does not prove that her testimony is unreliable."

Mr. Bao didn't think that Zhang Zhen was the one who killed the top scholar. After all, the way the top scholar died was not something that an ordinary person could do.

And Zhang Zhen is a weakling who can't even tie a chicken.

Liu Shu spoke up: "Can I see the corpse of the top scholar?"

"Of course." Mr. Bao agreed.

Mr. Bao trusts Liu Shu's eyes more.

Since he can see through the disguises of monsters, he should be able to see some clues from the bodies of the dead that others cannot see.
