Ghost King's Peerless Poison Concubine

Chapter 127 Inviting Cloud Vulture Liuli to the Ministry of Punishment (4)
"After all, Miss Bai played chess with me in the Xiao Mansion last night. No matter what the reason is, I should prove it for Patriarch Bai." Mrs. Xiao's peaceful eyes were extremely hard to detect, "I dare not say I want to take in an apprentice, but I really want a companion who can often play chess with me."

Yu Shiran gritted his teeth in his heart, and looked at the Wang Shi who seemed to be unresponsive beside him, with deep contempt in his heart, looked at Bai Liuli and said sadly: "In that case, Patriarch Bai, please go, don't let Concubine Mingui take a long time. Wait, I don't want to see Patriarch Bai suffer unnecessary flesh and blood."

"Heh..." Bai Liuli sneered softly, "Thank you for your concern, Prince Consort, I will definitely walk out of the gate of the Ministry of Punishment safe and sound."

Since Mrs. Xiao is willing to set foot in the White Mansion and give false testimony for her, it is enough to prove that she will definitely let her come out of the Ministry of Punishment in peace, because Mrs. Xiao herself is probably in a hurry.

Bai Liuli smiled meaningfully at Yu Shiran when she walked by Yu Shiran, and lowered her voice so that only Yu Shiran could hear it, "Next, who is the son-in-law looking for as a stepping stone?"

When Yu Shiran's eyes were filled with surprise, Bai Liuli had already passed him by with a slight smile. At that moment, Yu Shiran felt a sense of regret in his heart. Why didn't he find Bai Liuli so beautiful and charming?If he had found out earlier, maybe he would not have let Xiahouluo kill her and marry Xiahouluo.

Bai Liuli, this woman, perhaps it would be good to keep her by my side again——

Cloud Palace.

The officers and soldiers brought by Prince Xia Houchen and Minister of Justice Li Zaidong all stayed outside the gate of Prince Yun's mansion, not without Baili Yunjiu's permission, but because of their own fear.

People in the city, I am afraid that few people dare to step into this mansion, let alone after seeing the ten dead bodies that were killed by the eyes of the ghost prince hanging on the execution ground at the west of the city this morning, they dare not approach this mansion. The mansion, let alone stepping in.

If there are still a few people who dare to enter this mansion that looks like death, then their Lord Li and His Highness the Crown Prince are two of those few people. Fortunately, Lord Li and the Crown Prince His Highness did not order them to accompany them into the mansion, but asked them to wait outside the mansion, otherwise they might be able to enter but not come out.

I only hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Li can successfully capture the murderer, Prince Ghost, who regards human life as nothing. Nothing unexpected happens. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the proud son of heaven. Your Highness is.

Xia Houchen has never believed the rumors about Baili Yunjiu's eyes killing people, and this is not the first time he has entered Prince Yun's mansion, so he has a steady pace, and Li Zaidong is an upright official who never believes in gods, ghosts and Buddhas, and is over fifty years old , with a thin stature, he looks like an old scholar, but his downcast eyes are piercing like a young man, his waist is straight every step he takes, and he is completely unaffected by the rumors in the market. Because of the influence of the current Prince Yun's mansion, he had no sense of fear, so he followed Xia Houchen with his head high and his chest high, and walked to the reception hall under the guidance of the dumb servant.

When the guard led Xia Houchen and Li Zaidong into the reception hall, Baili Yunjiu was already sitting on the main seat and waiting for their arrival. Seeing the two of them stepping through the threshold, he stood up slowly and greeted them With a hand gesture, he said politely: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Shangshu came to our residence. We are far away from welcoming you. I hope His Highness and Lord Li will forgive me. Please sit down, listen to the wind, and serve tea."

Today's Baili Yunjiu wears a silver-lined dark floral narrow-sleeved robe, a faceless mask that is completely black and has no facial features, and his black hair hangs down his shoulders. The feeling of a headless ghost made Li Zaidong frown slightly when he first saw him.

"Lord Yun, I think, you should know why I and His Royal Highness are here today." Li Zaidong seemed very dissatisfied with Baili Yunjiu's reaction, and refused to sit down, only staring at Baili Yunjiu's face His mask was extremely serious, and his voice was thick and powerful. It was completely impossible to imagine that a thin, bookish little old man with a half-blond beard would have such a powerful voice comparable to that of a samurai.

His voice is cold and cold, every groove on his face is written with unsmiling seriousness, the awe-inspiring righteousness that belongs only to an upright official is revealed from his old but not muddy eyes, which is completely different from Wang Shi's Minister of Punishment. It feels like seeing people like him makes Zeguo's temples so clean.

Li Zaidong was upright and unwilling to sit down, but Xia Houchen sat down generously. He reached out to take the tea handed by Tingfeng, opened the lid of the cup and took a sip of the hot tea, and then looked at Zheng calmly sitting at the table with a smile. Baili Yunjiu who was being questioned by Li Zaidong.

The world only knows that Baili Yunjiu is an incompetent prince who is dangerous to the people and powerless to the country, but almost no one knows that Baili Yunjiu is not just a useless prince with a different surname, his power may be so terrifying that it is impossible to guess , although he still doesn't know what kind of power Baili Yunjiu has, but he knows that his power must not be underestimated, because it is unheard of for someone who can make his father jealous.

This is also what he accidentally learned from his father two years ago, or his father pretended to reveal the words to him unintentionally, so in the past two years, he has always been paying attention to Baili Yunjiu and even the people in Yunwang's mansion. Every move, and then he discovered that the Baili Yunjiu was indeed not simple.

Rather than saying it is not simple, it is better to say that it is dangerous. For the Xiahou clan, it is a very dangerous existence. Therefore, it is a good opportunity for him to find out the existence of the Baili Cloud Vulture and find out what he thinks is dangerous. .

If he could successfully bring Baili Yunjiu to the Ministry of Punishment, those ten humble lives would be worthy of death.

It's just that if you want Baili Yunjiu to obediently confess his guilt and catch him without a fight, I'm afraid it's not that simple.

"I don't know what crime I have committed, so please tell Master Li." Baili Yunjiu said calmly, without the slightest surprise, as if what he was talking about was not about him.

"Today, just before dawn, ten dead bodies appeared on the abandoned execution ground at Caishitou in the west of the city. Everyone suspected that Prince Yun had killed them. It was the servants who came to your mansion to ask the princes to accompany the officials to the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Assist the lower officials in investigating this case." Li Zaidong clasped his hands deeply at Baili Yunjiu, saying neither humble nor overbearing.

Xia Houchen's long and narrow phoenix eyes stared closely at Baili Yunjiu, as if he didn't intend to say anything, because he was observing, and because he hadn't used his opening yet, since Baili Yunjiu had The unexpected power will definitely not obediently go to the Ministry of Punishment, and only then will he need to speak.

"In that case, let's go." However, Baili Yunjiu's reaction was far beyond Xia Houchen's expectations. Even Li Zaidong was amazed. He has been an official for decades, and he has never seen such a reaction. The person who clarifies a word by himself and obediently follows him to the Ministry of Criminal Justice!You know, few people can come out after entering the Ministry of Criminal Justice!
