Bamboo horse is king

Chapter 132
Seeing that the emperor believed Chiyuan's slander, the abbot of the Huguo Temple couldn't help feeling sorry for the misfortune of the country, and spoke out to persuade him, "Your Majesty, the Taoist priest Chiyuan is guilty of sins, and his words cannot be trusted!"

Chiyuan felt dissatisfied, looked at the abbot, and said in a deep voice, "Master is a well-educated eminent monk, the poor Taoist has always respected you, but the master will not tolerate any slander."

"The poor Taoist has been cultivating for many years, and has been eliminating demons and defending the Tao. If it is the work of a monster, you can tell at a glance."

"Amitabha! My old man..."

"Master!" The emperor interrupted the abbot's words in a deep voice, his eyes were sharp, "Every palace in the palace is repaired by a special person every year, and it is impossible for it to collapse suddenly."

"If you want to destroy a huge palace in an instant, you can't do it without human power. If it wasn't for the evildoers, I really can't think of anyone with such great ability."

The emperor looked at Chi Yuan, "Master Taoist, according to what you said, where is that evildoer located? Is there anyone who doubts it?"

A gleam flashed across Chi Yuan's eyes, and he felt a little proud in his heart.

"Back to the emperor, not long ago in the prince's mansion, Pindao fought against that evildoer, but he didn't want to be pinned down. The prince happened to be pinned down yesterday, so Pindao suspects that the evildoer is Master Shen's daughter."

Everyone looked at Shen Shiyun with different expressions.

The emperor's eyes sharpened, and his face was gloomy, "Master Chen, what else do you have to say?"

Shen Shiyun smiled, as if hearing some funny joke, his eyes met the emperor calmly.

"Your Majesty, if my minister's daughter is really an evildoer, then my minister must be too. Chi Yuandao has profound skills. You might as well take out the demon mirror and let this minister show her original shape."

The emperor's face froze, his brows furrowed.

A trace of gloom flashed across Chi Yuan's eyes, "Your Majesty, there are some monsters with profound morals, and it is impossible for them to show their true colors by looking at them!"

Shen Shiyun couldn't help laughing, "Evidence is the key to everything, and Taoist priests can't convince the public just by guessing!"

"As far as I know, if you want to destroy a palace, in addition to the ability of demons, some people who are favored by heaven can also do it."

"In the past month or so, a large number of unfamiliar faces have appeared in the capital. According to investigations by the King and the official, most of those people are from Chaoyang Kingdom."

"As we all know, the people of Chaoyang Kingdom have always been blessed, and they are different from ordinary people."

Everyone was shocked and looked at each other. People from Chaoyang Kingdom came to Beiyu Kingdom?

The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, his face thoughtful.

Shen Shiyun continued, "Those people acted in a low-key manner, but for some reason, they broke into King Zun's mansion at night. King Zun has been investigating secretly in order to know his purpose."

"This investigation found that His Royal Highness has close contacts with those people, and the officials don't know about the various reasons."

"Everyone present should know that the people of Chaoyang Kingdom are capable of destroying a palace."

"Master Chiyuan suspects that my daughter is an evildoer, and I also suspect that His Royal Highness is colluding with people from other races with evil intentions!"

Shen Shiyun's words made everyone sigh, and all eyes turned to Mu Qizhen.

The emperor's eyes on Mu Qizhen also became sharp.

"Father! Don't listen to Shen Shiyun's nonsense..." Mu Qizhen hurriedly defended, his expression showing panic.

"Whether this official is talking nonsense, the king can testify!" Shen Shiyun said lightly, his tone not hurried or slow.

"Before entering the palace, I didn't know that someone was going to frame my daughter, so naturally it was impossible to collude with the king."

"Right and wrong, it is more convincing for the king to say it!"

"People from Chaoyang Kingdom are still staying in the capital for unknown purposes. The people who honor the king are spying on them secretly. All of us should pay attention!"
