Chapter 566 You are a slander

Yun Lin's words were sonorous and powerful and had great meaning. Yes, Song Xinghai was stripped of the king's title, but Yun Lin was not affected at all. There were two forces behind her that no one wanted to mess with, one was the Yun family represented by the Holy Elixir Master Yun Hengtian, and the Alchemist Guild, which was a giant. In fact, from the standpoint of the Holy Emperor, after the design and frame-up, he wanted to immediately put Song Xinghai and his wife on the spot. Only by cutting the roots can he eliminate future troubles forever. The reason why he didn't do that was not because he was so concerned about brotherhood, but because he was afraid of these two forces behind Yun Lin. If he really killed Song Xinghai and his wife, I'm afraid the Yun family and the Alchemist Guild would have taken action long ago.

This is also the most headache for the Holy Emperor. Song Li's family has a deep roots and is harder to deal with than Prince Zhong!

The civil and military ministers in the court look at me, look at you, no one comes forward to respond to Yun Lin's words. The Alchemist Guild's status in the empire is too special, and no one dares to challenge this behemoth.

The Holy Emperor said: "Yun Aiqing doesn't have to be angry. I will try this case impartially and will not accuse the good people, but I will never let the bad people go!"

Although Yun Lin is no longer a princess, she still holds the title of a palace alchemist, so the Holy Emperor still calls her "Love Queen".

"It's best to handle it impartially. I'll wait for Your Majesty to return justice to my son." Yun Lin snorted coldly, without giving the Holy Emperor any face.

"Come on, Xuanren Zhengzheng went to the palace!" The Holy Emperor's voice came out from afar.

The eunuch who was attending the service outside conveyed the Holy Emperor's will with a sharp voice. Soon, four guards walked in with two women and one man and three witnesses.

"Look at His Majesty, His Majesty, Long live His Majesty!" The three of them came in and lay on the ground, shouting long live his head, and didn't even dare to raise their heads.

"Raise your head." The Holy Emperor said majestic.

The three witnesses raised their heads. The two beautifully dressed girls were both ten years old and had a fair appearance. The other man was about the early thirties, with beards under his jaw, and his appearance was quite vulgar.

When Song Li arrived, the dancers who accompanied Zhao Yuan to drink and have fun had already escaped, so he didn't know if these two dancers had seen him last night.

"Report your name, residence, and what kind of profession you are engaged in."

The three witnesses answered the Holy Emperor's question tremblingly. The two dancers were dancers bought by Zhao Yuan for money, and the man was the housekeeper in Zhao Yuan's mansion.

The Holy Emperor asked Tie Luming: "Is their identities true?"

Tie Luming replied respectfully: "According to my investigation, it is completely true."

"Okay, I ask you, did you see or hear anything you have seen on the night of the incident? Even if there is a lie, I will remove your head!" The Holy Emperor said harshly, and scared the three witnesses' faces as if they were earth-shaking and their bodies were shaking like sieve.

"Report... Your Majesty, last night, Cao Min... was performing a dance for the Count. At this time, someone broke in outside. The Count... suddenly went crazy and killed a sister. Cao Min was scared away at that time, but Cao Min heard the Count say something while running..." One of the dancers shook and spoke a little unscrupulously.

"What words did he say?" The Holy Emperor stared at the frightened dancer with a burning look.

"Caomin heard the count say, "Uh, it turns out to be His Highness, the King of Ming... At that time, Caomin was scared and ran very fast, and he couldn't hear the words behind..." The dancer gasped, pointed to his companion beside him, and said tremblingly: "She... she ran with me at that time and heard this sentence..."

The dancer nodded like a chicken pecking at rice and said tremblingly: "Yes, yes, yes,... the grass people also heard..."

"Have you seen this person look?" the Holy Emperor continued to ask.

"No, we were so nervous when we ran out that we didn't dare to look at it anymore. He was still in the yard and didn't enter the house. Caomin just glanced inadvertently and couldn't see his appearance..." The dancer answered respectfully.

Song Li laughed to the sky and said, "That's all evidence? I just heard the count say 'Oh, it turns out it's His Highness Ming...', so he didn't even see anyone, so he forced himself to put it on me?"

Tie Luming refuted: "Is there a second person besides you, your noble, who has been granted the title of Ming Dynasty?"

Song Li's expression remained unchanged and he talked: "Two ten-year-old girls, facing the scene of their companions being beaten to death, may have their souls be scared away. During the escape, their spirits must be in extreme panic. At this time, it is normal for them to experience auditory hallucinations and other situations. I ask you, was your ears filled with screams from your companions?"

Song Li turned to one of the dancers, with a bright look, and a force that penetrated people's hearts. The dancers didn't even dare to breathe, and only felt that the legendary King of Ming was a little more terrifying than His Majesty the Holy Emperor.

"Yes... it's true... the sisters were all frightened and cried while running..." The dancer did not dare to look straight into Song Li's eyes anymore and answered the question honestly.

"In such a noisy environment, you can still hear a irrelevant word from Zhao Yuan when you are extremely panicked? If you weren't lying, you were hallucinating..." Song Li's expression suddenly darkened and he said coldly: "Are you sure you heard it clearly? Zhao Yuan really said this?"

The two dancers immediately shrank into a ball and said in panic: "It seems that I heard it...and it seems..."

Song Li spread his hands and laughed mockingly: "Mr. Tie, if this is what you call evidence, it would have disappointed me too much!"

The Holy Emperor sighed secretly, but he remained calm on the surface and said in a slightly reproachful tone: "Iron Aiqing, their testimony may not be used as direct evidence of conviction. He only heard the sound of his voice and did not see the person, so he could not explain anything."

Tie Luming said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I naturally have other witnesses." He looked at the middle-aged man who had been silent and said, "Zhao Yongnian, it's your turn to speak."

The middle-aged man named Zhao Yongnian glanced at Song Li, hurriedly lowered his head, and said tremblingly: "Report to Your Majesty, Caomin is the housekeeper of Zhao Mansion Zhao Yongnian, and the Count is my distant nephew. Because I am a little knowledgeable about writing and knowing how to settle accounts, the Count arranged for me to be the housekeeper in his mansion. At the time of the incident, Caomin happened to be near the hall where the Count was enjoying dance. Seeing the murderer breaking in, Caomin hid in the bushes next to him, and thus witnessed the face of the man. The two dancers heard the words. Caomin also heard. The Count was standing at the door, and the man was standing in the yard. The Count seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said, Oh, it turned out to be His Highness Ming..."

Lord Saint Emperor nodded and said lightly: "If you say so, those two dancers should not be hallucinating."

Zhao Yongnian said respectfully: "Your Majesty, they are not auditory hallucinations, because the grass people hide in the yard, so they can hear clearly."

Song Li was in Zhao's mansion last night. With his late-stage spiritual sense of the Golden Pill, the entire Earl Mansion could not hide the movements of him. Naturally, he knew that someone was hiding nearby, but he was an ordinary person based on his breath, so he ignored it at all. Otherwise, not to mention that Zhao Yongnian was hiding in the bushes, even if he was hiding in the mouse cave, Song Li could accurately locate and capture him.

"Since you see this person's face, then you might as well talk about who this person is?" The Holy Emperor said calmly.

"Report to Your Majesty, he is wearing a mask on his face, so the grass people cannot see his facial features. However, the Earl calls him His Highness the King of Ming, and he did not deny it." Zhao Yongnian's head lowered.

"Then what?"

"Then they went in. Caomin had poor cultivation talent, so his cultivation was low and he couldn't say he had any ears. I didn't hear a word of their conversation indoors. Later, I could hear the sound of fighting and violent explosions. After the sound subsided, Caomin dared to go in and check it out for a long time. Only then did he realize that the Count was gone."

"Absent? Do you mean Zhao Yuan is missing?"

"Report to Your Majesty, yes. Lord Zhao is missing. My subordinates searched every corner of the Earl's Mansion, but they did not see the adult. I asked the people in the mansion, and they all said that they had not seen the adult leave the mansion. So the small judgment was that the adult might have been killed by the murderer."

Song Li felt funny inward and thought to himself that Zhao Yuan's dog slave was burned by my Emperor Fire so that there was no residue left. It would be strange if you could find it.

Tie Luming said sternly: "The evidence is conclusive, what else does Your Highness Ming have to say?"

"What do I have to say? I have nothing to say." Song Li curled his lips disdainfully, "I thought the Minister of Justice was so capable. With this so-called evidence of catching wind and shadow, I concluded that I was the one who broke into the Earl's Mansion? Then Lord Tie, a murder case happened in our mansion, and it has not been solved yet. It seems that the murderer who killed the maid is Lord Tie."

"All nonsense! What does the death of the maid of the mansion have to do with Tie?" Tie Luming scoffed at Song Li's remarks.

"Later when I was investigating, a servant recalled that he heard the maid calling out 'Shistor Tie, why is it you'? The next day, he found that the maid drowned in the well. According to your logic, isn't Lord Tie the murderer?" Song Li said nonsense. It is true that there was a maid in Prince Rong's mansion who died, but she died of illness and had nothing to do with others.

Tie Luming pointed at Song Li and said in a trembling voice: "You...you...you are accusing! How could Tie, a dignified official of the court, have anything to do with your maid?"

Song Li said slowly: "It is difficult to talk about the matter between men and women. Maybe Lord Tie fell in love with my maid's youthful and beautiful maid, and went forward to try to hook up and try to get along. He became angry and killed someone in anger."

"Nonsense! It's simply nonsense! Tie is doing things right and right, how can he do such a despicable thing?" Tie Luming was so angry that his beard was pouted.

"I only came to the conclusion based on the logic of Lord Tie's case handling. Why did Lord Tie react so much? Could it be that he is guilty of being a thief?" The more angry Tie Luming was, the more innocent Song Li looked. The more he did this, the more angry Tie Luming was.

Speaking of selflessness, cruelty and ruthlessness, iron laws and regulations are unscrupulous, but when it comes to fighting strategies, ten of them are not Song Li's opponents.
