However, the next moment, Liu Rushi grabbed his arm with one hand. Wei Zeng's whole body stiffened. He turned around and saw Liu Rushi slowly raising her head and looking at him. A strange smile appeared on her face, which suddenly became stiff and blue.
Then, a familiar voice uttered a chilling sentence through that stiff mouth: "Wei Zeng, you killed me twice."
Wei Zeng's body seemed to be frozen almost instantly, unable to move for a while.
He will never forget this familiar voice.
Because the owner of this voice comes from the real Liu Rushi...
Wei Zeng stared at the pieced-together body of Liu Rushi in front of him for a long while before finally speaking with difficulty: "Brother?"
Wei Zeng married Liu Rushi's sister and always followed his wife in calling Liu Rushi "Big Brother".
At this time, Liu Rushi's soul was living in this body.
Sometimes things in the world are so unpleasant.
"This is clearly my body, but I can't bring it back to life. Wei Zeng, tell me, why is this happening?"
Liu Rushi's voice continued to be heard.
Wei Zeng felt his scalp tingling and soon he was sweating profusely.
The next moment, Liu Rushi suddenly raised her hand and grabbed his neck tightly, making breathing extremely difficult.
"I really want to kill you, to avenge my sister, my father, my nephew, and myself."
Liu Rushi's cold voice came out continuously from this body.
Wei Zeng couldn't tell for a moment whether Liu Rushi was really alive or all this was just an illusion?
But at this moment he was completely unable to tell the difference.
Liu Rushi pinched his neck, making the air he breathed thinner and thinner. His face turned red and his eyes began to roll back. He was almost dying.
"If you don't let go, he will really die, and then this princess will have no choice but to capture you."
At this moment, a childish voice suddenly came.
What followed was that Liu Rushi finally let him go.
Wei Zeng was immediately thrown to the ground by Liu Rushi in disgust like a piece of trash.
Then, a small figure appeared in front of Wei Zeng.
He looked at Xiao Shuangbao, his eyes slowly beginning to focus, and he finally realized that the person in front of him was the legendary Princess Lingfu.
Following behind her was Zhou Xu, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple.
"Come here, take him down!"
Zhou Xu waved his hand, and the guards behind him immediately tied up Wei Zeng.
"Wait."
Before Wei Zeng was taken away, Xiao Shuangbao suddenly spoke.
The guard stopped immediately and looked at her respectfully.
Little Shuangbao walked up to Wei Zeng, looked at him, and asked, "Was it Yun Wuchen who helped you harm Liu Ru's family?"
Wei Zeng still felt a little dizzy.
But this question made him wake up immediately.
Wei Zeng pursed his lips and refused to answer the question.
However, Xiao Shuangbao smiled. "If you don't deny it, I'll take it as your admission. It makes sense. The secret recipe for face-changing was originally from him. Moreover, who else could have devised such a scheme to escape and plot against the ministers in the court?"
After saying this, she raised her hand and placed a talisman on Wei Zeng's body, and instructed the two guards, "This talisman must not be touched. If anyone tries to peel it off, they will be immediately attacked by the magic.
"As for the backlash effect, I don't know yet. This is a new talisman paper I've learned, and I haven't tested it yet."
As Xiao Shuangbao spoke, he looked at Wei Zeng and raised his eyebrows, saying, "Including yourself, if you dare to take it off, your life will be in danger."
When Wei Zeng heard this, a hint of fear appeared on his face.
After all, although he had never seen Xiao Shuangbao's abilities, he had heard of them.
"Alright, take him away for questioning."
Little Shuangbao waved his little hand.
Wei Zeng was taken away, and only then did he realize that he seemed to have walked into a trap!
But, did Liu Rushi really come back to life?
This question has been lingering in Wei Zeng's mind.
"Little Princess, there is one more matter I need you to decide."
At this time, Zhou Xu suddenly asked.
"What's the matter?" Xiao Shuangbao looked at him curiously.
"There are two solutions to this case. One is for Wei Zeng to be convicted, still under the identity of Liu Rushi. However, Liu Ruying will probably still be implicated. After all, in name only, he is still Liu Rushi's illegitimate son."
Zhou Xu said, "The second option is to make the truth known to the public. But little princess, this is too difficult. I'm afraid the people won't believe it."
Xiao Shuangbao listened and naturally understood what he meant.
Liu Rushi's case has now been full of twists and turns.
At the beginning, Liu Ruanying wanted to overthrow Wei Zeng who was pretending to be Liu Rushi and avenge his mother, uncle and grandfather. This matter was a big deal. Liu Rushi, who was pretending to be Liu Rushi, was directly ordered to be imprisoned by Emperor Chengxuan, and the General's Mansion was also confiscated.
But not long after, the Dali Temple suddenly announced that Liu Rushi was not guilty, he remained the general, and Liu Ruanying was sentenced instead.
This has been causing the people of the capital to complain for several days about the officials protecting each other.
However, if the Dali Temple were to tell the people that the so-called Great General Guarding the Nation had actually been pretended to be the Liu family's son-in-law who was rumored to have died long ago... then the people would definitely discuss the matter and suspect that this was a lie fabricated by the court to protect Liu Rushi.
