In the private room of the governor's mansion, the brazier in front of the table was burning, and the room was so quiet that only the sound of the flames devouring the firewood could be heard.

After reading the biography in her hand, Leng Xiurong threw it into the brazier. The scorching heat did not melt the frost in his eyes at all.

— Still haven’t found that person.

Even if he searched the entire capital, he couldn't see the figure of that person, and he didn't leave any clues for himself.

Perhaps to that person, he is just a dispensable "friend".

Thinking of this, the chill in his eyes deepened, it was an abyss that could not be illuminated even with the scorching fire.

Even the heart fell slowly, and slowly stopped beating.

"It's not good! Princess!"

Holding the hem of her skirt, Han'er ran all the way into the room, her little face was already flushed by the cold wind.

"What's wrong."

The calm tone without ups and downs is the magnetic voice unique to men.

"Just now, I heard Lin Zhu outside saying that the county horse is back!"

Leng Xiurong was startled, before she had time to ask a question, she was pushed back by Han'er's call.

"Because of the rumors in the capital, the Holy Majesty suspected the identity of the county horse, so he appointed the prime minister's mansion to interrogate the county horse! Now everyone has rushed to the front of the court!"

His heart palpitated and started beating violently, his frosty expression finally relaxed a little, and even his fingertips couldn't help trembling slightly.

In front of the arena is the place where Dong Yaoguo has always publicly tried criminals.

...Is the matter so serious to the whole point!

Leng Xiurong got up quickly and asked Han'er to prepare the carriage. He wanted to go to the field to see the situation.

The carriage drove towards the front of the field at high speed. Inside the carriage, Li Qin was wearing an official uniform, clutching the hem of his clothes with some unease in his heart.

Just after the morning court, he boarded the carriage returning home and returned to the Governor's Mansion. Before he got out of the carriage, he heard Lin Zhu running from a distance and shouting.

"Young master! It's not good!"

Knowing from Lin Zhu's mouth that Li Yu had an accident, he immediately asked the coachman to turn back and drive to the front of the field.

In Mingling Palace, the doors and windows were tightly closed, and the temperature inside was comfortable. The thrush squatted in the fluffy blanket on the man's lap, nodding its head wearily.

The man gently covered the thrush with the corner of his clothes, lost in thought.

For some reason, it was extremely noisy outside, Shen Yixuan raised his eyes silently, "What's the noise outside?"

"Return to Your Highness, it seems that the young master has been escorted to the front of the court." The attendant outside replied softly.

"……Who?"

As if thinking that he had heard it wrong, Shen Yixuan confirmed it again, with an indescribably stunned tone.

"The young master was escorted to the front of the court, waiting for the prime minister's trial."

The door was slammed open, and the attendant saw his Highness standing behind him with a gloomy and displeased face, and spoke in a cold voice.

"Prepare the carriage and prepare to rob people."

……Why?The attendant was a little dazed. He had never seen such a weird behavior from his highness. After a second of stunned, seeing his highness's displeased eyes, he couldn't help but frightened.

"Yes Yes!"

In the palace of Yu Shi, Leng Muqing sat on the couch wrapped in a quilt, looking at the snow outside with some boredom, how the winter in Dongyao Kingdom is much colder than that in Xishu Kingdom.

Even Chi Chi, who is more resistant to freezing than other similar ones, has already hibernated.

——I don't want to go out at all, she has been in the palace for several days.

Just as she was counting the snowflakes on the leaves outside boredly, she saw her brother open the door and come in.

"Just now, everyone in the palace is spreading..."

Knowing about Li Yu from Leng Yuanhan, Leng Muqing opened her eyes wide in surprise, exchanged a glance with Leng Yuanhan, then got up and went to the front of the field.

The matter became more and more serious, one spread to ten, ten spread to a hundred, and the people in the capital were all talking about it.

"What? Let the prime minister's mansion deal with the young master of the prime minister's mansion? Surely he will be partial? That dude has done a lot of evil, and because he is the young man of the prime minister's mansion and won the favor of the empress, how could he be punished?"

"No! I've heard that that dude was possessed and eaten by an evil spirit. That is to say, he is not a young master at all. The empress and the prime minister's wife want to pluck that evil spirit's skin!"

"Hurry up, hurry up, go to the front of the court, the Holy Majesty is going to punish that evil spirit!"

Shen Zirui wanted to go to the front of the field, but was stopped by Empress Li halfway and locked into the Prince's Mansion.

"Wait a minute, what is the empress doing? Let me out!" Shen Zirui knocked on the door, a little angrily, "Empress!"

Empress Li ignored Shen Zirui's shout, but said coldly to the people next to her.

"Let people be optimistic about the prince, and not let him come out. If the prince comes out, they should all be pulled out and beheaded."

"……Yes!"

The attendants kneeling underneath were trembling.

Shen Zirui, who had never been treated like this before, knocked on the door angrily, "Let this prince out!"

Now Li Yu has been escorted to the front of the court, but he was actually locked up by his mother.

What evil spirits descended into the world and disturbed the laws and order, Shen Zirui thought it was all rumors, so he ignored it.

After all, he has never believed in ghosts and gods, so this rumor is just a joke to him, just listen to it.

Unexpectedly, someone would use this to frame Li Yu.

How could that guy who would hurt himself in order to save others be some kind of evil spirit?

Shen Zirui vaguely remembered that day at the hunting ground, Li Yu stood in front of him in order to save him, with hidden weapons in his shoulder and back.

——Just kidding, how could he get hurt again!

Recalling the painful expression on his face, Shen Zirui clenched his palms worriedly, and kicked the closed door viciously.

With a bang, the door lock was kicked and crumbling.

The guard guarding the gate looked at Shen Zirui in astonishment, and saw him smiling viciously.

"I'll see who dares to stop me."

The killing intent was so terrifying that all the attendants could only kneel on the ground and dare not obstruct it.

The front of the arena was crowded with people, all of them were the people of the capital watching the excitement.

Your Majesty, Empress Li is in the upper seat, the prime minister and his wife are on the left, and the rest are on the right.

In order to prevent anyone from taking the opportunity to assassinate, the front of the arena was surrounded by heavy fences and attendants.

Shen Haoran looked at Li Yu who was kneeling on the stage, and unconsciously clenched his hands covered by the cloak.

Li Yu was escorted to the front of the arena, knelt on the stage, and calmly looked at the tight defense around him, as well as the spectators outside the heavy fence.

From those pointing people, the eyes fell on the prime minister's wife on the left side in front of the stage.

Seeing the incomparably disgusting expression on that beautiful face, just like what he saw in a dream, made Li Yu feel a little dazed.

For a moment, I didn't know whether it was a dream or reality.

The crowd of onlookers pointed and pointed.

"It's really young master! That scum still has today! Retribution!"

"What the hell is going on?"

"This evil spirit really deserves to die!"

With the sound of the chopping board, everyone stopped talking in low voices and watched the situation on the stage.

The prime minister recounted the crimes of the evil spirits, just like what he had heard in the hall, there was no difference.

— is a well-crafted lie.

The people outside the fence listened and couldn't help talking in low voices.

Those harsh words rode the wind and squeezed into Li Yu's ears.

"Look! This guy is really an out-and-out evil spirit! Why didn't God take him in!"

"That's right! You should do justice for the sky!"

After the prime minister sternly reprimanded Li Yu for his crimes, he paid attention to the reaction of the crowd around him and asked mockingly, "What else do you want to say?"

Li Yu opened his mouth to defend, "There must be someone..."

But before he could utter a complete sentence, he heard the anger outside, and the voices of people talking overwhelmed his defense.

"This fellow is a scourge! Burn him!"

"Yes! That's right! The evil spirit should be burned to death! Burn him to death!"

Someone mingled with the crowd and started a conversation.

Li Yu's voice of defense was overshadowed by the crowd's louder voices.

Even I couldn't hear my own justification.

Those people tried to cover Li Yu's discourse with sharp voices.

There was no one to stop the troublesome crowd, even the Holy Majesty could not have predicted that the crowd would be so angry.

Perhaps they were provoked by the angry words of those people, and the others also shouted more angrily.

"Burn him! Burn him! Burn him! Burn him—"

Shen Haoran frowned, staring at the first few people in the crowd who provoked the conversation, as if thinking of something, looked at Empress Li.

He has already prepared his manpower, as long as the situation is not clear, he will directly rescue Li Yu.

——Even if everyone misunderstood him as an evil spirit, he still had to protect him and leave.

Li Yu knelt on the stage, listening to the deafening sounds around him, covering everything else.

The people were furious and shouted repeatedly, demanding that he be punished.

He originally planned to defend himself, but when he heard the crowd around him, and he was not given a chance to speak at all, he couldn't help but calm down and stared at the crowd outside.

Seeing that the Prime Minister had no intention of controlling the field at all, the Holy Majesty could only cough a few times to signal the audience to be quiet.

But the crowd still ignored it and continued talking instead.

"This evil ghost is bullying people! Cheating in the autumn test! Robbing the women of the people! Disrupting the law! I implore the Holy One to kill him!"

"This evil spirit can even eat people! Everyone in the alley has been eaten! If you don't kill him! We will be the next to die!"

"Your Majesty is clear! Kill this evil spirit! Eliminate harm for the people! Your Majesty! Burn him to death!"

Punish the heart.

Shen Haoran on the stage was already shaking his fingertips with anger, but he still had to restrain his emotions, in order to avoid making things more complicated.

Seeing Li Yu looking at the crowd calmly, he felt even more uncomfortable. He wished he could rush up to the stage, hug that man in his arms, and cover his ears to prevent him from listening to these vicious words.

Li Yu looked at those people for a long time, then slowly moved to the prime minister's wife in front of the stage, recalling the scene in his dream, he couldn't help asking softly.

"You...do you hate me so much..."

Whether it is the last life or this life.

But no one heard his words, only saw his mouth move slightly.

The voice was overwhelmed by the overwhelming vicious words.

Shen Haoran finally couldn't help it, and patted the armrest on the side of the chair to stop the crowd from shouting.

"--Quiet!"

Seeing the angry appearance of the usually gentle and indifferent second prince, people were really startled, and their voices gradually subsided.

The Holy Majesty was already unwell, and after being made such a fuss by the crowd, he became even more upset and irritable, breathing slowly and impatiently wanting to end everything quickly.

"Li Yu, do you have anything else to say?"

Li Yu hesitated for a while, and was about to speak when he was interrupted again by voices outside.

"What else is there to say! Needless to say! Kill him quickly! Kill him—"

"Burn him! Burn him! Burn him! Burn him—"
