Chapter 457
Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to look at him.
Except for the one hanging on the door.
"Elder...eldest princess..."
Zhang Jin, whose chest was pierced by the Fire Moon Spear and hung on the cell door, said these words in a trembling voice, and blood suddenly poured out of his mouth.
Then his body went limp and he died!
He probably would never have thought until his death that someone in this palace would dare to attack the Jin Yiwei!
"My subordinate Wu Bei, the Jinyi Guards School Captain, pays homage to Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
After Wu Bei's brief shock, he immediately bowed to worship. The sword he pulled out in his hand was quietly inserted into the scabbard.
Although the eldest princess is now in the palace, she still has the title of general on her head. Although the royal guards belong to the imperial army, they also belong to the army, so they are naturally called subordinates.
"Greetings to Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
Seeing this, the cell guards and jailers sheathed their weapons and bowed down.
Nangong Huoyue turned a blind eye, trailing the fiery red skirt behind her, and walked quickly to the young man surrounded in the middle, stretched out her hand to grab his wrist, and said sincerely: "Sir, I have shocked you, this is me I apologize for your negligence."
Qin Wenzheng and Qin Chuan, who were standing next to them, quickly looked down at the ground and said respectfully: "Greetings to Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess."
Only Xia Chan stood motionless next to her, looking coldly at the majestic girl who suddenly appeared in front of her.
Wu Bei and other guards in the cell were shocked when they saw this scene.
Luo Qingzhou glanced at his grabbed wrist, broke away calmly, and said with his hands raised: "Your Highness is serious. Your Highness arrived in time, I should be grateful."
Nangong Huoyue reached out and grabbed his wrist again and said, "Sir, my family, why should I be so polite? Come on, I will take you back to the palace to talk."
As soon as these words came out, Wu Bei's expression suddenly changed, he hurriedly raised his head and said respectfully: "Your Highness, Princess, no! I have been ordered to..."
"Uh-huh!"
There was a flash of cold light and the words stopped abruptly.
Yueying's sword suddenly came out of its sheath, flew out, and returned to its sheath instantly.
Wu Bei opened his mouth and froze on the spot.
After a few breaths, his head suddenly tilted and rolled down from his neck!
The headless corpse stood there, blood spurting out...
The other guards and jailers nearby were so frightened when they saw this scene that their legs weakened and they knelt on the ground.
In less than a moment, the two imperial guards were killed!
"In front of me, those who dare to say no will usually not survive."
Nangong Huoyue glanced coldly at the headless corpse spurting blood, her tone cold, but when she turned back to look at the young man in front of her, a trace of gentleness appeared on her face.
Her hand, still holding the young man's wrist, said warmly: "Sir, would you like to come back to the palace with me to have a chat?"
Luo Qingzhou glanced at her hand holding his wrist again, and at the headless corpse. He didn't struggle or hesitate anymore, and said respectfully: "It's an honor."
Qin Wenzheng and Qin Chuan next to them turned pale with fear.
"Thank you sir."
Nangong Huoyue had a smile on her face, turned around, and pulled him to leave.
The other Jinyi guards in the field were all kneeling on the ground, their heads lowered, trembling, and they didn't even dare to raise their heads, let alone stop them.
But at this moment, a tall man wearing a unicorn suit suddenly walked out of the passage behind.
The man walked closer and took a look at the corpse hanging on the cell door and the headless corpse that had fallen on the ground. His pupils shrank slightly, then he lowered his head and cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, the Holy One will be here shortly. Please wait a moment, Your Highness.”
Nangong Huoyue sneered: "Luo Changtian, do you dare to stop me?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Changtian immediately stepped aside to get out of the way, lowered his head and said respectfully: "I don't dare. I am just following orders and doing things in accordance with the official duties. I have no intention of offending His Highness. I don't know what made His Highness so angry today that he actually asked His Highness to do it himself."
Nangong Huoyue stretched her right hand back, and the Huoyue gun inserted into the cell door suddenly extinguished and disappeared like a flame, and then reappeared in her hand instantly.
"You arrested one of my own, and you still used knives and guns on him. People that I can't bear to touch, but those blind things like yours still dare to touch them. Do you deserve to die?"
Nangong Huoyue had a powerful aura and a majestic face. The gun in his hand was pointed in front of him, and the flames jumped from the tip of the gun.
Luo Changtian lowered his head, remained motionless, and said after a moment of silence, "It is true that he deserves to die. Your Highness, please calm down and I will explain to you when the Holy One comes."
Nangong Huoyue sneered: "Are you threatening me with the Holy Shang?"
Luo Changtian said respectfully: "I don't dare. It's just that this case was handled by the Holy Lord. These people are all suspects. It's natural for Your Highness to take them away, but I hope that Your Highness can wait for the Holy Lord to come up." Take it away before you get it, otherwise it will be difficult for my subordinates to do business."
"Bang!"
Nangong Huoyue swung the spear in his hand, and the tip of the spear suddenly hit his chest hard.
Luo Changtian was knocked away and fell to the ground in a panic.
Then, he immediately got up again and continued to stand bowed, motionless and silent.
"You think I don't know? You applied for this case to the Holy One yourself, right? Your Luo family wants to avenge a private vendetta and kill someone with a borrowed knife, right?"
Nangong Huoyue said with a frosty face.
Luo Changtian still lowered his head and said nothing.
At this moment, from the corner not far away, a eunuch's sharp voice suddenly came: "The Holy One is here!"
Immediately, a large group of father-in-laws and guards, surrounded by a young man of about fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing a yellow robe, hurriedly came from the passage.
Luo Changtian bowed to the side and knelt down to kowtow: "Your Majesty, Luo Changtian, pay my respects to the Holy One."
The young emperor glanced at him, ignored him, and walked quickly past him. Then he quickened his pace, with a bright smile on his face, and said kindly: "Sister, why are you here? I was there just now. I looked for you, I thought you were at my mother’s place.”
Nangong Huoyue glanced at him, and the Huoyue gun in his hand suddenly shrank and disappeared. He said calmly: "Your Majesty, your Jinyi guards have no evidence and arrest people randomly, and they arrest people of this palace, so I come here to take a look. look."
While speaking, one of her hands was still holding Luo Qingzhou's wrist.
Nangong Yang glanced at the young man behind her, then smiled and said: "I thought it was a big deal, but it turned out to be this small matter. Why does the emperor have to come in person? Just find someone to tell me."
Nangong Huoyue said: "This is not a trivial matter. There is no evidence. After arresting a hero of Dayan without authorization, he is going to be imprisoned and tortured. If word spreads, everyone in Dayan will be in danger. Your Majesty, what Jinyiwei has done recently can be Nothing good."
"oh?"
Nangong Yang smiled, turned his head and said, "Luo Changtian, come here."
Luo Changtian immediately bowed and came closer.
Nangong Yang asked with a smile: "Tell me, what's going on? Why do you want to arrest the emperor's people?"
Luo Changtian lowered his head and said respectfully: "Luo Yu, the capital of the Chengcheng Kingdom of Mocheng, was admitted to the Dragon Tiger Academy this year, but on the last day, he was brutally murdered, and he was brutally murdered in front of his parents. Your Majesty. Bring back all those with a motive I came here for interrogation. Because the Qin family has a special relationship with the Chengguo Mansion and is a meritorious family, I finally found them. I brought them back today just to ask them. It was not about torture to extract confessions as the eldest princess said. minister……"
"Crack!"
Nangong Yang suddenly slapped him hard on the face, and his face instantly turned gloomy: "What do you mean by what you just said? Are you saying that the imperial sister slandered you?"
Luo Changtian immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said, "I don't dare."
Nangong Yang snorted coldly and said: "Let me tell you, I got the throne today only because of the emperor sister. Without the emperor sister, who can conquer and fight well, without the emperor sister's ability, my father would never pass on the throne to him. Me. So, what do you mean by arresting the emperor’s people? Are you trying to embarrass me?”
Luo Changtian immediately kowtowed and said, "I'm wrong, I'm wrong."
Nangong Yang turned his head, with a friendly smile on his face, and said: "Sister Huang, for my sake, please let him go. Since they are her people, she can just take them away." As for this case, let’s end it here.”
Nangong Huoyue gave him a complicated look and said: "Of course the case cannot end here, but he is the eldest son of Luo, so naturally he should not be left to investigate, lest people gossip. Moreover, this is also my Dayan law Clearly stipulated.”
Nangong Yang immediately lowered his head and said: "Yes, what the emperor taught me is that after I go back, I must read the Great Yan Etiquette carefully and memorize it thoroughly, and I will not miss every word."
Nan Honghuoyue's tone slowed down: "I don't mean to lecture you. You and I are siblings. I just want to tell you that as an emperor, you cannot do whatever you want. You must care about the people, lead by example, and..."
"Yes, everything the emperor said is right!"
Nangong Yang lowered his head and admitted his mistake, with a sincere expression on his face.
Nangong Huoyue was silent for a moment and said: "Okay, I won't say more, then I will take the people away. If there is evidence, you can send people to arrest them. When the time comes, I won't say anything anymore Any words."
Nangong Yang lowered his head and said, "Sister Huang is joking, how dare I arrest your people."
Then he raised his head again and said with a smile: "I will never forget that my imperial sister helped me fight for this throne. My father made it clear before his death. Ministers, uncles, both inside and outside the palace, all Know."
The tip of Nangong Huoyue's eyebrows twitched slightly and said calmly: "Don't mention this matter again. My father passed you the throne naturally because you have the ability to sit on it. Okay, I'm going back."
After saying that, he pulled Luo Qingzhou away from the side.
Qin Wenzheng and the others immediately followed behind.
Outside the cell, silence suddenly returned.
The guards, father-in-law, and maids in the field all lowered their heads and were silent, as silent as a cicada.
Nangong Yang stood there, motionless, with the friendly smile on his green and pretty cheeks that didn't disappear for a long time.
