Everyone loves Bai Yueguang, but he only loves me

"The poor monk was also present at the time. Why don't we go to the palace with the Imperial Master and serve as a witness." Master Xuanzheng got off the carriage.

"And Xuanji Pavilion..."

Then Xumizi also came out with the Xuanji Pavilion disciples.

A group of people marched toward the palace in a mighty manner.

In the palace, facing the aggressive envoys of Beihuang, Emperor Tai'an, the current emperor of Dongzhou, felt particularly uncomfortable at this time.

"What do you, Dongzhou, want to do by detaining me, the Prince of Beihuang, for no reason?"

"If you insist on provoking a war, I, Beihuang, are not vegetarians!"

"If we can't give an explanation today, then we will fight to the end!"

"..."

The envoys of Beihuang were as angry as a volcano on the verge of erupting, while the Minister of Rites was like a firefighter, constantly pouring water to put out the fire.

"What did the envoy say? Isn't this matter still undecided?"

"I, Dongzhou, have always been on good terms with you, Beihuang, how could I deliberately provoke a war?"

"There must be a misunderstanding, envoy, please don't be impatient..."

The two of them were going back and forth, quarreling with each other, and when the argument was heated, a heavenly voice came from outside the hall, "The Master of the State led the abbot of Kudu Temple, the elder of Xuanji Pavilion and others to come to the audience——"

All the civil and military officials in the court breathed a sigh of relief.

Emperor Tai'an, who was sitting on the dragon throne, quickly raised his hand and said: "Quick, hurry up and announce that the Imperial Master has entered the palace!"

Bai Chu entered the palace, bowed slightly and said, "See your Majesty."

Jing Sheng and the others followed and saluted, "See your Majesty."

Emperor Tai'an said quickly: "Master, please forgive me!"

Bai Chu was not polite and said straight to the point: "Your Majesty, I am here just for the matter of the Crown Prince of Beihuang."

As he said that, he casually glanced at the palace, and the envoy from Beihuang, who was still so aggressive just now, immediately withered.

"I know that some of you are making irresponsible remarks in front of His Majesty, not to mention baseless remarks about humans, demons, devils, etc. You all have eyes, so you might as well see with your own eyes who the Crown Prince of Beihuang is. What a cause of death!”

Standing in the ranks of nobles, Yuan Xinhou lowered his head in embarrassment.

The attendants of the Imperial Prefect's Mansion quickly carried the body to the palace.

Even though the corpse had long since lost its vitality and was shriveled and deformed, the envoy from Beihuang could still recognize it at a glance and immediately rushed towards it, crying: "Prince, Prince... How did you become like this... Wuwuwu..."

Then he pointed the finger at Emperor Tai'an, "Emperor Dongzhou, my prince was killed in your country, what else can you say!"

"This..." Emperor Tai'an was still lucky, thinking that maybe the Crown Prince of Beihuang was just seriously injured?

I didn't expect that Bai Chu would directly carry the dead person to the temple. He didn't know how to deal with it for a moment, so he could only look at him for help.

Bai Chu's eyes were slightly cold, pointing to the corpse on the ground, and said: "Who said he was killed in Dongzhou? He is clearly possessed by a monster, caused by being sucked out life for a long time!"

When Emperor Tai'an heard this, he immediately became excited, "Yes, if he was killed yesterday, well... how could it have turned out like this!"

The envoy of Beihuang raised his head and argued: "Of course ordinary people would not do this, but what if it was someone from the Demon Sect who did it? Don't forget, the murderers of the Prince of Beihuang, Changfeng Guan, are human beings." Demons and demons!"

Before he finished speaking, Jing Sheng had already led the little Taoist boy out of the row, glared at him, and asked loudly: "Master and disciple Pindao have never met you, and we have no grudges. Why do you slander Master and disciple Pindao as demons?"

Then he turned to Emperor Tai'an in the palace and said aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, although our Changfeng Temple is unknown in Xuanmen, it is also a formal Taoist temple registered with the imperial court.

The poor Taoist and the young disciple both have certificates issued by the imperial court, and are of pure family status. They are not the demons or devils described by the envoys! "

The ministers in the palace were talking a lot.

"Aren't these just two ordinary Taoist priests?"

"Yeah, how can you tell it's a demon?"

"Is there something special about them?"

"I'm sorry for my poor eyesight, but I really can't tell the difference between their masters and disciples and us!"

"..."

Emperor Tai'an glanced at the handsome young Taoist priest in front of him and the little Taoist boy with red lips and white teeth beside him. They obviously looked like humans, but how could they have anything to do with the devil?

He glanced at Yuan Xinhou in the honorable queue with confusion, and asked the envoy of Beihuang, "Did you admit the wrong person?"

Jing Sheng took advantage of the situation and asked: "I am young and have a shallow Taoist teaching. There is a huge gap in strength between the tall and powerful Crown Prince of Beihuang, and my apprentice is a child who cannot tie a chicken with his hands.

Even if my master and apprentice together are no match for the prince, how can we hurt him in public?

Envoy of Beihuang, did you see it with your own eyes at the scene? "

Naturally, he couldn't answer, and said hesitantly: "This...I didn't see it with my own eyes...but...but, someone present saw it!"

Jing Sheng stared at him with burning eyes, "I wonder who the person who spread the rumors is? Do you dare to stand up and confront Pindao master and disciple on the spot?"

The envoy from Beihuang suddenly fell silent, his eyes drifting towards Yuan Xinhou as if nothing at all.

Marquis Yuan Xin lowered his head even lower, as if he wanted to dig a hole and bury himself in it.

Master Xuanzheng clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, the poor monk was also present at that time, which can prove that little friend Yunlai did not harm the Crown Prince of Beihuang.

However, the prince became demonized, so we had to force him to stay.

Unexpectedly, the prince suddenly lost his life in the middle of the night yesterday, and the prince Yuan Xinhou who was traveling with him was nowhere to be seen. "

"What a coincidence?" Emperor Tai'an looked more and more confused.

Master Xuanzheng looked at Yuan Xinhou and asked, "I wonder if your son will return safely?"

Yuan Xinhou hummed slightly, closed his eyes, and continued to pretend to be deaf and dumb.

Master Xuanzheng stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Amitabha! This way, the poor monk will feel at ease."

Xumizi took over the conversation, "When we examined the prince's body, we found no fatal wounds. Considering that he had shown signs of demonization before, I used a demon-removing talisman to remove the remaining demons in the prince's body. The energy was gone, and then he became like this.

We just dared to conclude that he had been possessed by a monster, and the monster moved to a new target after his identity was exposed. "

After saying that, his eyes fell on Yuan Xinhou.

Emperor Tai'an on the dragon chair was thoughtful. After a moment, he suddenly realized: "I understand, the monster must have transferred to Yuan Xiang's body!"

He clapped his hands and asked excitedly: "Envoy of Beihuang, was it the Prince of Yuanxinhou who informed you that master and disciple Changfengguan seriously injured the prince?"

The envoy's face turned pale, his lips murmured a few times, but he did not say anything to save his face.

But the attitude says it all.

Emperor Tai'an turned his attention to Marquis Yuan Xin again, "Marquis Yuan Xin, what do you say?"

His body trembled, and he replied bravely: "Report to your Majesty, this matter is too ridiculous, I really can't believe it!"

Then he looked at Jing Sheng, "There is no evidence to prove that Master Yunlai and his disciples are demons, and there is no evidence to prove that the minister is a demon. Your Majesty, please be clear!"

Emperor Tai'an was startled, then held his chin and said, "What Yuan Xinhou said is quite reasonable. Yun Lai, do you have any evidence to prove that Yuan Xi was possessed by a monster?"

Jing Sheng was waiting for his words. He took out a talisman from his sleeve and handed it to Yuan Xinhou. He said with a smile: "This is the demon and evil talisman produced by Xuanji Pavilion. Yuan Xinhou will try it when he returns home." It’s clear that what Senior Xumizi said is true or false!”

Seeing that he didn't answer, he added, "Don't wait too long, otherwise when the monster sucks all its life away, it will turn into that ghost!"

Marquis Yuan Xin was doubtful at first and glanced at the corpses on the ground. It was really sad to think that the Crown Prince of Beihuang looked high-spirited and arrogant just a few days ago, but now he has turned into a withered skeleton!

If it were my beloved son...

Unable to help but shudder, he took the talisman and said to Emperor Tai'an: "Your Majesty, I will return home to verify it right now."

He hurriedly left the main hall and went straight to Yuan Xinhou's mansion.
