All the ancestors in the capital begged me to be a substitute

Chapter 346 Soul Leaving Shock (Two in One)

"I have never seen it with my own eyes, so how can I know what their fetuses look like?" the queen said calmly.

Shen Lingxi took a few steps forward and approached her, "The other concubines don't live in Kunning Palace. It's understandable that the queen doesn't know about it. But Shen Yuyao in the queen's palace, if she is carrying Mu Huaijie's A posthumous child, so it has been more than four months."

"A fetus that is more than four months old has all four limbs and has slipped out of the abdomen. It should have a fetal body and a placenta anyway, right?"

The queen's face was expressionless: "Those filthy things were naturally disposed of as soon as they fell."

"Then I dare to ask, how did you deal with it?" Shen Lingxi asked again.

"How could I know about this kind of thing?" The Queen looked at her coldly, "The Crown Princess is looking at him, is she trying to confuse everyone? I..."

The queen hasn't finished speaking yet——

Shen Lingxi suddenly grabbed her wrist.

The first thing he felt was the warm touch of his skin, which made Shen Lingxi's eyes flash slightly.

I originally thought that the queen possessed by Sheng Kun was a corpse that had died long ago.

Unexpectedly, he was still alive.

interesting.

Shen Lingxi's eyes were fixed on the queen's face, "When the empress was young, she also gave birth to a four-month-old fetus. She even had someone put it into a pottery jar and send it to Taiyi Mountain for salvation. How come it's the niece's turn now?" A miscarriage, how can it be done so carelessly?"

"If my prediction is correct, those pregnant concubines, even Shen Yuyao, are not really pregnant, but took the fake pregnancy pills specially given to them by the Queen, right?"

The queen's pupils suddenly tightened.

All the ministers in the court looked sideways at the queen.

Especially the emperor looked at the queen in disbelief.

Before the queen could speak, the dead soul of Mu Huaijie beside her was already beginning to worry, "Wrong, wrong. What are you doing to trouble my aunt? You should go to the emperor. Sheng Kun is in the emperor's body, not the aunt's body."

This covert explanation is simply ridiculous.

Shen Lingxi smiled and said deliberately, "Look, Mu Huaijie is very anxious next to him. Did you know that yesterday he let it slip and accidentally said that the queen was not the real queen, but was possessed by evil spirits? Fake Queen.”

As soon as these words came out, Mu Huaijie was shocked.

He subconsciously looked at the queen, "I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything!"

All the civil and military officials present looked shocked.

The emperor frowned.

With what Shen Ji said before, even though he had never seen the stillborn fetus of the concubine and Shen Yuyao, he now didn't believe a word of what Shen Lingxi said.

Shen Lingxi was not interested in the emperor's attitude at all. Her eyes never moved away from the queen's face from beginning to end.

I was very happy to appreciate the process of the queen's livid face instantly due to Mu Huaijie's words, and the process of quickly throwing a murderous look at Mu Huaijie.

Not afraid of god-like opponents, but afraid of pig-like teammates.

At this point, Sheng Kun, who was possessed by the queen, knew that he had been seen through by Shen Lingxi, so there was no point in pretending to be in front of her.

The queen deliberately raised her voice, "Princess, you have overstepped your bounds. What fake pregnancy pills, what real queen, fake queen, those concubines and Shen Yuyao are indeed miscarriage miscarriages, I am standing here, how can I allow you to pretend to be a ghost and turn things upside down? Black and white!”

As she said that, she raised her hand and was about to shake off Shen Lingxi's hand——

A cold dagger suddenly pressed against the side of her neck.

There were gasps throughout the hall.

"Prince, what are you doing!" the emperor shouted in a deep voice.

At this moment, Chu Yan had a cold face and held a short sword.

The sharp sword blade was pressing against the side of the queen's neck. "I also feel that she is not the real queen. I did this to prevent him from doing harm to the emperor."

"Nonsense! Ridiculous!" The emperor pointed at him angrily, "She is my queen or your aunt. You dare to point your sword at my queen in front of me. Are you trying to rebel!"

"I don't dare." Chu Yan said expressionlessly.

But the dagger in his hand showed no sign of relaxing.

No one would doubt that if the Queen dared to make a rash move, the sword would definitely make her blood splash on the spot.

If an ordinary woman encountered such a scene, she would be so frightened that her face would turn pale.

But now, the core in the queen's body is Sheng Kun.

Sheng Kun was naturally not afraid of Chu Yan's threat, "Is the prince feeling distressed? Or are you and your wife because your plan failed and you became angry from shame?"

"We shouldn't be the ones with guilty consciences." Shen Lingxi asked with a smile but not a smile: "Can you tell me, your Majesty, you like to use osmanthus-flavored hair oil to comb your hair on weekdays. When you use this Nine Dragons and Nine Phoenix Crown, you also You only wear the pair of Dongzhu earrings that the emperor gave you on your wedding. Why don’t you use hair oil now, don’t wear earrings, and don’t even apply the kodan on your nails?"

"After I have recovered from a serious illness, I have become indifferent to these external things and don't want to wear them anymore. How do you treat them?" the queen said righteously.

Shen Lingxi smiled meaningfully: "Shouldn't you ask me when the emperor gave you a pair of Dongzhu earrings?"

The queen's face changed slightly.

The emperor's expression also condensed.

Shen Lingxi calmly added: "Besides, the Queen never likes the smell of osmanthus, so she only uses toilet oil."

"You can't even tell the difference between osmanthus oil and floral oil, right?"

As she spoke, she raised the queen's hand again and said, "The empress would touch up the nails on her nails once a month, even when she had a miscarriage. This has been her habit since she was a child. How can you stop just when you say stop?"

"No wonder Mu Huaijie never closed his eyes and kept saying that you were not a queen at all. He said that not only were you not a queen, you were also a man."

Mu Huaijie looked anxious: "I didn't say anything, I really didn't say anything."

"He said it, he said it." From a distance, Liu Mei and the two concubines floated in, watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously. "He said a lot, it's all what he said."

Mu Huaijie:...

Liu Meiren winked at Shen Lingxi.

Seeing this, Shen Lingxi let go of the queen's hand and gently pushed away Chu Yan's dagger pressed against the side of the queen's neck.

Chu Yan put the sword in his sleeve and stood behind Shen Lingxi again, with a cold and alert look on his face.

Shen Lingxi glanced at everyone and said loudly: "The last time I was in Kunning Palace, I found it strange that the Queen was gentle and dignified. Even when she was ill, she always looked decent and generous in front of others. She is good at embroidery. The clothes she wears are always embroidered by herself, but this one only wears plain clothes without embroidery. She doesn't like to use her daughter's home spices, and she doesn't apply cinnamon. If she hadn't come to the court today, she would I have been facing the sky for months..."

"It's relatively easy for a woman to pretend to be another woman. But if a pretentious man wants to pretend to be a gentle and elegant queen, he will definitely be full of loopholes..."

At this point, Shen Lingxi turned to look at the queen and changed the topic, "If I predict correctly, those servants of Kunning Palace who died in the cold palace should be the ones who saw your flaws and talked about you behind your back. Isn’t that right, National Preceptor Sheng Kun?”

Her voice was neither loud nor quiet, enough for the people in the court to hear clearly.

Sheng Kun!

This name made all the courtiers change their expressions.

No one knows that Sheng Kun was a famous national teacher in the previous dynasty.

It has been decades since the previous dynasty fell, but the legend of Sheng Kun, the master of the country, is still circulating in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

In the past few days, there have been endless cases of corpse fraud in the capital, not to mention the previous incident where the King of Wei used a kite to attract thunder from the sky and pretended to be resurrected under the guise of destiny.

True and false, false and true, now in this court, the minister of civil and military affairs who previously scorned ghosts and supernatural things is not as arbitrary as before when he hears this kind of thing again.What's more, according to what Shen Lingxi said, the evil spirit attached to the queen's body at this moment is the former imperial master Sheng Kun!
Everyone looked at the queen, and some people who were close to the queen even took a few steps away calmly.

The emperor looked surprised and uncertain.

Even though he didn't want to admit it, the habits Shen Lingxi mentioned were indeed the Queen's.

In recent days, he went in and out of Kunning Palace every day, and he did notice that she was slightly different from before.

The emperor felt a little hesitant in his heart.

Chu Yan reported everything that happened in Yunjiang to him in detail.

Naturally, the emperor had heard about Sheng Kun's abilities.

But even so, when he thought about how Chu Yan had lied to him before - what Shen Lingxi knew was only the "mechanism" puppetry technique.

See Chu Yan’s reaction today again.

The emperor no longer believed in what Chu Yan had reported in the past.

Either that, what happened with Sheng Kun was a lie from beginning to end.

or...

When the emperor thought of what Shen Ji had just said, the second possibility was strangled in his heart.

"Queen, I know that you have been exhausted physically and mentally these days due to the affairs of the Mu family. What do you say to what the Crown Princess said?" he asked.

The light tone, without questioning the Queen at all, seemed to remind her that she only needed to give an explanation to stop the crowd.

In the face of such clear evidence, the emperor could still make such a biased decision, which really surprised Shen Lingxi.

With the emperor's attitude, the queen obviously felt confident.

"Back to the Emperor, I don't understand what the Crown Princess is saying at all."

She looked at Shen Lingxi and said solemnly: "I didn't expect that because of the death of my late mother, I deliberately wore plain clothes and did not apply makeup. In the eyes of the Crown Princess, it turned out to be evidence of evil spirits. Princess, you are a good example of embroidered clothes. Inspector, can you tell me what the crime is for slandering the queen of the dynasty!"

Her righteous attitude also made the emperor calm down.

Seeing Chu Yan's expression of concern again, the emperor stepped down from the high platform, stood beside the queen, and said to him in a protective manner, "Prince, you also heard that the princess slandered the queen's Qing Dynasty with unfounded things." reputation."

"Now I will give you another chance. You personally kidnap the Crown Princess to Beiya. According to the "Dazhou Law", she will be tried as she should be, until the evidence that she murdered the emperor's heir is found. I will no longer pursue the case. You are responsible for disobeying the order today, shielding the criminals, and bringing weapons into the palace. Otherwise, you will go to the heavenly prison with her!"

The emperor's majestic voice made no secret of his murderous intention towards Shen Lingxi.

The back-and-forth defense had worn away the last bit of his patience.

All he wanted now was to put Shen Lingxi, a woman of unknown origin and possessed of witchcraft, into prison and to be executed on a certain day.

Only in this way can he ease the pain of losing his son today.

Chu Yan stood behind Shen Lingxi, looking directly into the emperor's eyes, his feet motionless.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, his refusal was already clear.

And Shen Lingxi didn't expect the queen to admit it on her own initiative.

Now, since the emperor wanted to kill her, she didn't mind and let the emperor taste the consequences himself.

"I have finished what I have to say. If the emperor insists on believing in this false queen, you can kill or scrape her as you wish. However, before I am taken to trial, I have one more thing that I would like to ask for the emperor's permission. "

The emperor frowned.

In the current situation, it was best for her to consciously go to Dali Temple, otherwise there would be a stalemate, and he, a nephew with strong martial arts skills, would do something else.

"What's going on? Let me tell you." The emperor said coldly.

Shen Lingxi took out a brocade box from her sleeve and placed it in the palm of her hand.

"This brocade box contains the Ming Yin jade passed down by the first generation saint of Yunjiang. The empress only needs to put the Ming Yin jade into the palm of her hand. If the empress is not possessed by evil spirits, the Ming Yin jade will naturally not hurt her in the slightest. But if the empress has evil spirits..."

Shen Lingxi said meaningfully: "I believe that everyone with eyes can see Sheng Kun, the most beautiful man in the former dynasty. What kind of virtue is he now? Do you dare to do it?"

The queen's eyes darkened slightly.

Before she could say anything, the emperor had already agreed on her behalf, "Okay, I'll do as you say."

Seeing this, Shen Lingxi raised her lips slightly, opened the brocade box, and handed it to the queen.

There is a crystal clear jade ring in the brocade box.

Living people couldn't see what was mysterious about this jade ring, but the three undead present could all see that the surroundings of the jade ring exuded a gentle and bright luster.

This is undoubtedly Ming Yin Jade.

The underworld jade can exorcise the soul.

Shen Lingxi was originally worried that if Sheng Kun possessed a dead person, the underworld jade might not be able to drive him away.

But now, knowing that this body is alive, she feels relieved.

As long as the queen's hand touches this jade ring.

Sheng Kun's soul will be driven away immediately.

Previously in Yizhuang, Mu Huaian, Su Xian and Chu Yan could all see the two black lines.

Then, when Sheng Kun was expelled from the queen's body, everyone present would definitely be able to see Sheng Kun's black soul.

Then everything will be revealed.

"Queen, should you take this jade yourself, or should I take it for you?" Shen Lingxi looked at her and said with a smile.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the queen.

How could Sheng Kun, who was hiding in the queen's shell, not know what Shen Lingxi was planning.

She looked at the Ming Yin jade in the brocade box with uncertain eyes, suddenly thought of something, and smiled lightly, "I walk upright and sit upright, so naturally I am not afraid of these things."

As she said that, she quickly reached out her hand, picked up the jade ring... and then rushed towards the emperor.

"No, the queen wants to harm the emperor!" Shen Lingxi pretended to change her expression and shouted, "Inner guards, save the emperor!"

However, everything happened in a blink of an eye. The queen pressed the jade ring to the side of the emperor's neck through the brocade box.

The moment the jade ring stuck to the emperor's skin, the emperor's soul was driven away from the body bit by bit by the jade ring.

At the same time, a strange smile appeared on the queen's face. She stretched out her hand and placed her palm on the jade ring.

Hundreds of pairs of eyes of all the civil and military officials above the court saw a huge black shadow slowly rising from the queen's body, drifting towards the emperor's body little by little.

In mid-air, the emperor's living soul looked at this scene in disbelief. For the first time in his life, he felt an extremely chilling chill coming from the depths of his soul.

It turns out... everything Shen Lingxi said was true.

Seeing the black shadow about to squeeze into his body——

"Save me...save me quickly!" The emperor shouted to Shen Lingxi in horror.

Shen Lingxi glanced at him, turned her head and shouted behind her: "Su Xian, start the formation!"
