Chu Li laughed three times.
Is she stupid?
"No, I admit it!"
She laughed sarcastically, "My Lord, you are so sure that I am the Ninth Prince. Did you go to her coffin and see if she is not lying in it?"
Wang Heng was stunned.
What are you talking about?
"The Ninth Prince is the new emperor. How dare I offend the emperor's mausoleum?"
"The Ninth Prince's body has already been buried. You didn't dig up her coffin. How can you prove that the Ninth Prince is not dead?"
"you!"
It's just far-fetched talk.
"You are the Ninth Prince. I know your appearance, there is no mistake!"
"Where's the evidence?" Chu Li raised his hand. "Bring the Ninth Prince's coffin here and see if there is a body inside. Then come and testify against me. Otherwise, you are just making trouble for no reason."
Wang Heng's eyes turned red with anger.
Generally speaking, when men engage in verbal battles or reasoning with women, they are always the ones who suffer.
Women with long hair are unreasonable.
The dead can be said to be alive.
What is his status? What is the status of the Ninth Prince? How dare he offend the Imperial Mausoleum?
no.
He was clearly the one who was accusing Chu Li, but how come he ended up being the passive party and fell into the trap of self-incrimination?
Wang Heng quickly calmed down, fortunately he had a backup plan for tonight.
three.
two……
one!
After the calculation was over, outside the crowd, there was a chaotic flow of footsteps. A group of guards with swords rushed over, led by the governor of Shuntian Prefecture:
"Who reported the case? They said there was a dispute on the street... Ninth Prince!"
As soon as Chen Fuyin approached, he saw Chu Li and quickly lifted his skirt and knelt down: "I pay my respects to the Ninth Prince!"
The sword-carrying guards also knelt on one knee:
"Greetings to the Ninth Prince!"
This neat and unified picture shocked the people.
This person is the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture!
If Young Master Wang has recognized the wrong person, could the prefect also recognize the wrong person?
Wang Heng curled the corners of his mouth slightly, Now, let’s see how you step down!
Chu Li laughed secretly, facing the countless strange looks from all around, and raised his voice: "It's so late, and the lord hasn't left his post yet? Is there not enough manpower in Shuntian Prefecture? Does a small dispute require the prefect to personally take action?"
The people frowned.
yes!
After hearing this, I realized something was wrong.
The prefect is very busy with official duties and has to take care of the entire Shuntian Prefecture. Why would he need to personally handle a small dispute case?
Wang Heng immediately said:
"Master Chen, please stand up quickly. Don't call the wrong person. The Ninth Prince is suspected of dressing as a man and deceiving the emperor. This matter must not be made public!"
Chen Fuyin raised his head in shock:
"What? The crime of deceiving the emperor?"
At this moment, he seemed to have just reacted and stood up immediately:
"Ninth Prince, you...how could you be a woman! Then...the imperial decree that the Emperor had issued to make you the crown prince is no longer valid, and the imperial decree that you had issued to make the regent king and the eighth prince the idle prince is also invalid!"
Not only that, she must also be held accountable for the crime of deceiving the emperor.
Chu Li watched the two of them acting with a smile on his face.
Wang Heng said in panic, "Master Chen, please stop talking. The Ninth Prince wants to sentence me to death and force me to commit suicide!"
Chen Fuyin was furious.
Is there still any law?
It is not yet her turn to cover the world with one hand in Da Chu!
"Come here, capture her and take her to the Shuntian Prefecture Prison. I will report to the Empress Dowager and then execute her!"
Two guards strode forward, ready to capture Chu Li, but Chu Li took a step back:
"I have a clean identity, but you arrested me on trumped-up charges. Is this how you, the lord, conduct yourself as an official?"
"Whether you are innocent or not, I will find out once you enter Shuntian Prefecture."
"Let me go!"
"Hold her down!"
“Let go… ah!”
Chu Li struggled a few times, and accidentally fell to the ground with his foot twisted. A silver light flashed from his sleeve, and something fell to the ground.
Snap!
A cold light flashed, and the soft sword stood up. When the sharp blade popped out, it directly cut off the tip of Chen Fuyin's shoe, revealing five fat toes.
Liuhe drinks blood!
Buzzing like a python.
The people around subconsciously took a half step back.
What a sharp soft sword!
The slender sword body glowed with silver light, as if wrapped in moonlight, cold and arrogant, without a speck of dust. Even lying on the ground, it was flawless like jade. Near the hilt, there were vertical and horizontal lines engraved, forming two traditional Chinese characters:
"It's Kuni!"
A middle-aged man recognized it:
"This is the personal sword of General Xie, Xie Enhong!"
Several civilians immediately leaned forward to take a closer look: "It is indeed General Xie's sword!"
"I've seen it!"
"More than ten years ago, General Xie returned to the capital in triumph and rode past on horseback. This sword was on his saddle!"
Chu Li's eyes were filled with tears. He struggled to break free from the shackles of the two guards and rushed forward:
"This is the sword my father passed down to me!"
Everyone was shocked.
This woman turned out to be the daughter of General Xie!
"Impossible!" Wang Heng shouted.
She is the Ninth Prince!
"How did you steal General Xie's sword?"
Chu Li glared, raised his sword and placed it across Wang Heng's neck, "You can insult me, but you actually insulted my father. He fought for his country and his people all his life, just to protect a scum like you!"
"Master Chen!"
Wang Heng felt a chill on his neck and dared not move.
"Master Chen, please speak for me and expose her!"
