Demoness, Where Are You Fleeing To?
Chapter 544 The culprit
In the Yangshi world, Le Qianqian rode out of Liudaosi and headed towards the Champion Marquis' Mansion, when he found many people burning incense tablets and statues on the streets.
Le Qianqian didn't need to look at it to know that it was the memorial tablet and statue of Du Cheng Huang.
As she traveled, she found that this was the case in every household.
In order to facilitate burning, many people are using knives and axes to chop wooden signs and idols into pieces, and then pile them together and burn them.
This caused plumes of black smoke to rise along the way and fill the sky.
But there are still some people who are trying in vain to stop it.
"——Can't burn! You can't do this."
"Damn it! Hateful! Annoying! The capital city has been safe and sound for three hundred years under the care of the capital city god. Even if the Mongol troops came to the city thirteen years ago, there was no serious harm in the capital. You people are all ungrateful people!"
Some people sighed: "Of course we remember the kindness of Master Ducheng Huang, but isn't there nothing we can do about it? The Six Daosi Division said that Master Ducheng Huang was poisoned."
"Don't burn it? If you don't burn it, someone in the family will die... In Master Li's house next door, three members of the family died yesterday."
Le Qianqian frowned. She couldn't stand it anymore and accelerated towards the champion's mansion.
But just when she came to the gate of the Hou Mansion and stopped her horse, she saw 'Li Xuan' striding out of the Hou Mansion.
That is of course not Li Xuan's true body, but his second spirit.
Le Qianqian was pleasantly surprised when she saw this: "Master Zhonglang, are you ready?"
Just four days ago, Li Xuanchu entered the underworld not long ago. Li Xuan's second spirit, who was left in Liudaosi, suddenly fainted. Le Qianqian and the others had no choice but to send his distracted spirit back to the Champion Hou Mansion and leave it to Jiang Yunqi to take care of him nearby.
"It's okay now."
'Li Xuan' Longxiang strode over like a tiger, then directly picked a ground dragon from the stable and rode on it: "Qianqian, you came back just in time. Now come with me into the palace. I need your help with something."
"Entering the palace?" Le Qianqian quickly mounted her horse, looking puzzled: "What are you doing entering the palace?"
"Go and reveal the truth about the Seven Poisons of the City God." Li Xuan rode galloping while his eyes were like fire: "There is something wrong with that temple priest, he has been replaced by someone else."
Le Qianqian was stunned: "Temple blessing? This is impossible, right? If he is replaced by someone, how can he communicate with the gods? It is impossible for the Lord City God not to recognize his own believers."
'Li Xuan' sneered: "It's very complicated to explain. You'll know what's going on when we enter the palace."
According to Shi Liuru, Duke Wenzhong had to leave the temple three months ago and did not respond to believers anymore. At this time, those who were sitting inside and in charge of the authority of the underworld were only the White Lotus Virgin and the puppet of the big devil, the ignorant and remnant spirit of Duke Zhang Wenzhong.
The person worshiping in the temple was not Duke Wenzhong Lie, but Duke Wenzhong Zhang who had no intelligence.
Interestingly, Deputy Zuo Tianzun personally supervised the case but failed to discover anything unusual.
Zhu Tianzun goes out all year round to clean up demons. Nowadays, the only one within the Six Daosi Division that can suppress the Zuo Deputy Heavenly Lord is the Elders Association.
But the Council of Elders could be convened if Li Xuan wanted to. At this time, he could only start from the palace and block the imperial edict first before talking about anything else.
Just as the two of them were galloping on the street, speeding towards Miyagi.
In the palace city, in the Wenhua Palace,
First assistant Chen Xun, second assistant Gao Gu, Zuo Chunfang University scholar Shang Hong, etc., all cabinet members, as well as the nine ministers and ministers of the six ministries, including Yu Jie, the Minister of War, gathered here.
Also present were Qian Long, the eunuch in charge of the ceremony, and Tianzun, the left deputy of the Six Paths Division.
Just as Queen Mother Sun walked in from outside the door, all the ministers here looked slightly stern and paid her courtesy.
"Did you know that there are many people outside knocking on the door because of the spread of the Seven Poisons in the capital?"
Empress Dowager Sun frowned and glanced at all the ministers present. Finally, her eyes were fixed on Qian Long, the Supervisor of Ceremonies: "What's going on in Changle? Why haven't you made a decision yet? You ministers don't know how to persuade me?"
Qian Long smiled bitterly: "Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, is a very thoughtful person, similar to Xuanzong. I dare not say anything."
Empress Dowager Sun immediately showed a look of dissatisfaction: "It's just a city god. Why is she hesitating? Your Majesty, really, how can you let a woman from Changle supervise the country?"
Duke Wen Zhonglie was a very loyal minister, but was his position more important than the people of the city and the safety of the country? Why can't she carry it so clearly? Go and tell Changle that this time we will temporarily take away Wen Zhonglie's throne, and we will return it to him after Wen Zhonglie has dealt with the poisonous fire. "
After hearing this, many civil servants present could not help but have complicated expressions.
It's not that they don't agree with what Empress Dowager Sun said, but they still can't believe that the Seven Poisons that were plundered in the capital were caused by Duke Wen Zhonglie.
But four days later, the facts were all there, and they could only compromise.
At this time, it was Princess Yu Hongshang of Changle who showed much higher trust than them in the matter of Duke Wenzhong.
The left deputy Tianzun of the Six Paths Division, who had always looked cold, suddenly said: "If His Royal Highness the Supervisor of the Kingdom has been unwilling, can you please ask the Ministry of Rites to issue a proclamation in advance to order the people in the temples around the world to suspend the sacrifices to Wenzhong Lie Gong?"
Everyone looked sideways at the Minister of Rites, because Zuo Deputy Tianzun's proposal was indeed feasible, and the Minister of Rites of the day had this right.
But just before the Minister of Rites made his decision, Yu Hongshang's voice came from outside the palace: "No need."
She was dressed in fine clothes and walked in from outside the palace: "The matter of depriving the throne of God will be decided today."
Everyone's eyes turned to her. Then everyone noticed that there was a person tied up with chains behind Yu Hongshang.
Zuo Fu Tianzun was slightly stunned when he saw this, and recognized that it was Zhu Xieying of the Chenghuang Temple who was supposed to be under house arrest in the Capital City God's Temple.
This man's face was also full of confusion, but his expression was calm as usual, with an air of immortality.
Takatani Takatani, the second assistant, was also puzzled. "Your Highness, Jian Guo, may I ask what this is?"
Yu Hongshang had already walked to the throne of the Supervisor and sat down: "Li Xuan said that Zuo Deputy Tianzun made mistakes in investigating the Seven Poisons case, and this person is the real source. He is already on his way to the palace, and he will arrive later to let him know. The truth about this case comes out.”
Zuo Deputy Tianzun immediately frowned, with a look of displeasure on his face.
Many civil servants present had mixed expressions. Some were happy, some were looking forward to it, some were puzzled, and many were in disbelief.
The temple Zhu smiled bitterly: "The Champion is the re-disciple of Wen Zhong Lie Gong. It must be because he respects Wen Zhong Lie Gong, so he can't accept it. How can I be the source of the Seven Poisons if I thank you? For what Mr. Wen Zhong did, Mr. Wen Zhong would have eliminated Mr. Xie a long time ago, how can we wait until now?"
"That's because you are not a believer at all."
At this time, Li Xuan also walked in from the door with Le Qianqian.
He saluted the princess and the queen mother in the palace, and then looked at the temple to wish Xie Ying: "Time is running out now, and I don't have time to bother with you. How about asking Xie Miao to use the magic of seduction right now."
Upon seeing this, Deputy Zuo Tianzun snorted coldly with a dissatisfied look on his face: "Li Xuan, what on earth are you doing?"
Li Xuan laughed and looked at him with a bit of anger: "Actually, I also want to know, Zuo Deputy Tianzun, what are you doing? You haven't handled the case for too long, and you have done it intentionally? You want me to avoid suspicion. , but turned this simple case of City God's Seven Poisons into the current situation?"
Zuo Deputy Tianzun was stunned for a moment, as if he did not expect that Li Xuan would contradict him in front of everyone.
"That's fine."
Chenghuang Temple Zhu Xie Ying gave a wry smile: "Xie just obeys the order, please forgive me."
Then he kneaded the magic formula with his hands and recited the prayer. And just a moment later, a huge Dharma image of the City God began to appear behind him.
Many civil servants present frowned when they saw this, with disappointment in their eyes.
Li Xuan sneered: "Qianqian, can you see clearly?"
If this case was in his hands, if Zuo Deputy Tianzun had asked him to participate in the trial. At that time, all he had to do was let Le Qianqian take a look and the truth would come to light.
"I can see it clearly!" Le Qianqian's pupils were slightly dilated, and a blush appeared on her pretty face: "This is not the City God at all."
She is extremely talented in seance. Let her see the difference between this god's Dharma form and Wen Zhong Lie Gong at the first glance.
——Although they are both strong and upright, there are still some differences.
Zhu Xie Ying from Chenghuang Temple looked helpless: "Xie couldn't understand what you two said."
Empress Dowager Sun also had a cold expression on her face, and her eyes were stern: "Li Xuan, the court is not a place where you can mess around."
'Li Xuan' turned his head and looked at them with a smile: "Don't worry, you just need to wait for a while."
At this time, in the City God's Hall in the underworld, another Li Xuanzheng picked up a wolf brush and wrote quickly on a piece of dragon skin paper.
"It doesn't matter if you die to be filial to your son, to die to be loyal to your ministers. Since Guangyue's spirit is divided, scholars have no integrity; if the loyalty of the monarch and his ministers is lacking, who will bear the burden? If you scold the thief Zhang Xun, if you love the emperor far away, your reputation will last forever - —”
This is a piece of "Qinyuan Chun" that Wen Zhonglie wrote to Zhang Xun and Xu Yuan before his death to express his ambitions.
As the handwriting was written on the dragon skin paper one by one, Li Xuan's majestic and glorious body resonated with the huge divine body in front of him.
But behind him, Lu Qiluo and Shi Liuru could not hide their disappointment.
Although Wen Tianxiang's poem resonated with Zhang Xun's soul, it was far from enough to make him concentrate.
But after this poem, Li Xuan continued to write.
"The feathers raised up the pavilion, and the beacon fire entered Chang'an.
He sent troops to garrison Yongqiu and divided his troops to rescue Suiyang.
Yan Qiu's muscles and poles are strong, and his formation is strong and refined.
The emperor fled to Shu, and the envoy looked at him from afar.
Geese fly along the stone path, and fish fly across the beams.
The flute and drum are flowing with Han thoughts, and the jingjia is covered with frost.
The strong wind blew up and the gravel blew away.
The horse's hair is shrunken like a hedgehog, its horns and bow cannot be stretched——"
This is Li Xuan's world, written by Bao Zhao of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, "Generation from Jibeimen Xing". Li Xuan's slightly modified version corresponds to Zhang Xun's life.
Green Qiluo's eyes were filled with anticipation and anxiety.
Duke Zhang Wenzhong's reaction has become stronger and stronger, and under the guidance of Li Xuan's majesty, there are already initial signs of condensing soul consciousness.
But judging from the current situation, there is still a lot to be desired.
But then, she saw Li Xuan wrote two more lines.
"——In times of crisis, we recognize the integrity of our ministers, and in times of chaos, we recognize loyalty. Give your life to serve the world, and die in mourning for your country!"
At this moment, there was a roar and explosion in the entire City God's Chamber. Zhang Xun's entire divine body showed signs of turning from virtual to real at this moment.
As Li Xuan stopped writing, the god's eyes and face seemed to come alive, with a bit of agility.
A hint of surprise suddenly appeared on Shi Liuru's face: "He is already concentrating his soul!"
"It's still a little bit worse." Green Qiluo took a deep breath: "Li Xuan, let me do the next step."
She cannot reveal her identity, even if she leaks a little breath in the human world, it will lead to disaster for her.
But now that Zhang Xun is still a little short of concentrating his soul, Lu Qiluo thinks that he can take a little risk.
Li Xuan did not agree, and he actually wrote again.
At this moment, he was filled with awe-inspiring righteousness, which suddenly turned into a purple pillar of air, rushing through the sky and the earth. Then he was guided by Li Xuan and turned into golden handwriting written on the paper.
And inspired Zhang Xun's true spirit to return one by one, reuniting his consciousness.
"How do you feel about today's beheading? Defending the city is difficult and involves many battles.
Go to Quantai to recruit old troops, and kill Yama with a hundred thousand banners.
The war in the North has been going on for three years, and this head must be hung towards the gate of the country.
If you all work harder in the future, good news will come to you as paper money.
If you devote yourself to serving your country, you will become a family, and the bloodshed will end.
Take justice and become benevolent today, in exchange for the flowers of peace in the world——"
Li Xuan wrote the poem, signed his name, and handed the scroll to Shi Liuru: "Can you send this scroll to the Confucian Temple in Yangshi?"
"Can!"
Shi Liuru's eyes lit up. Together with Duke Wen Zhonglie, they could send Li Xuan's people away, let alone a scroll?
It bit the scroll in its mouth, then rushed to the silver mirror and threw the scroll into the mirror.
At this time in Yangshi, as a ray of golden light fell into the Confucian Temple, the 'warning bell' in the Confucian Temple suddenly sounded, and a majestic spirit with a light purple meaning, almost flawless like glass, rushed straight into the void. The students in the Imperial College next to him were all stunned, and UU Reading www.uukanshu.net glanced sideways at the Confucian Temple next to him.
At this moment, in the Wenhua Hall in the palace, Shaobao Yujie suddenly stood up and looked at the Confucian Temple with a blank expression.
"Is this? Is another famous piece of Confucianism published through the ages?" Yu Shiyue, the Minister of Punishment, pinched his beard and looked surprised.
"It's more than that!" Cisuke Takatani said with a solemn expression: "This is the return of the true spirit of one of the seventy-two sages of the Confucian Temple and his reappearance in the human world."
At this time, 'Li Xuan' looked at Chenghuang Temple Zhu Xieying with mocking eyes: "Xie Miaozhu, your Excellency is right about one thing. If Duke Wen Zhong knew what you did, he would have killed you long ago. But now this ,also the same."
Xie Ying's face showed a look of pain, and blood overflowed from his five senses.
At this time, the god behind him was looking down at him with disgust, coldness and murderous intent.
Xie Ying wanted to end the descent technique and expel the gods from the body. Coke Qianqian used a magic formula at this time to stabilize the god's dharma appearance again.
At this moment, Xie Ying couldn't help but let out a scream, and golden flames burned all over his body.
Qian Long, the eunuch in charge of the ceremonial function, couldn't help but be stunned: "Marquis Champion, what's going on?"
"Isn't it obvious? This Xie Miaozhu is not a believer of Lord Wenzhong at all."
Li Xuan looked at Zuo Deputy Tianzun with cold eyes: "He is the real culprit of the City God's Seven Poison Cases."
At this moment, Zuo Futianzun's complexion was as dark as iron.
