Chapter 134 These two idiots are so stupid that they anger both heaven and man
Jiujiu saw the suspicion of the group of people in front of her, she stamped her feet and snorted coldly in dissatisfaction.
Just wait and you will see how powerful I am.
Jiujiu's method of finding the people who bullied the Thirteenth Prince was very simple, that is, to do it in the dark.
What does it mean to grope in the dark?
Just use a box that can hold your hand to test who bullied the Thirteenth Prince?
Anyone who does not bully the Thirteenth Prince will have their fingers turn black when they put their hands into the box.
Anyone who bullies the Thirteenth Prince will not see any changes to their fingers after they put their hands into the box.
This is what is called groping in the dark.
Jiujiu stood with his hands on his hips and explained the smearing rules to the students sitting below, and then asked someone to bring a box.
An ordinary wooden box that is only big enough for one hand to fit into.
It doesn't look anything special.
Even a little shabby.
Xu Ran and the Fourteenth Prince went forward to take a look, and after looking at it, they clicked their tongues.
"It's just a broken box. How can it tell who bullied the Thirteenth Prince?"
“What a joke.”
Jiujiu crossed her arms over her chest and said proudly, "An ordinary box cannot tell who bullied my Thirteenth Brother. But, what if it is not an ordinary box?"
"What do you mean it's not an ordinary box?"
Everyone was puzzled.
Jiujiu opened his eyes and lied, "This box of mine is the relic of the Holy Maiden Jiaoyan."
"Who is the Holy Maiden Jiao Yan? I don't need to explain more, right?"
There is really no need for Jiujiu to say more.
The Saint Maiden Jiaoyan was a founding hero of Western Chu and the only person in the history of Western Chu who could bear the title of Saint Maiden.
She was born in the Xuanmen sect, knew how to drive wild beasts to fight, and could draw talismans, chant spells, and make some strange things. For example, the box that Jiujiu mentioned was used to test who was the evil spirit.
Rumor has it that many years ago, the Mermaid Saint used such a box to catch the traitor in the imperial city who assassinated the emperor.
The method used is similar to Jiujiu.
This story has been circulating for a long time, and almost all people in Western Chu have heard of it.
Who would have thought that after so many years, this type of box would make a comeback?
This box must have been looted by Emperor Zhaoning because he loved his daughter so much that he gave it as a reward to his daughter.
After Xu Ran and the Fourteenth Prince thought about this, they finally became afraid and could no longer remain calm.
The two looked at each other and saw deep uneasiness in each other's eyes.
Jiujiu has already called people, blindfolded them, and started the test.
Jiujiu also emphasized many times that anyone who did not bully her Thirteenth Brother would have their hands turned black after putting them into the box.
Black is proof of their innocence.
Don't worry if your hands are dirty.
Those who have done nothing wrong should not worry.
Those who have done nothing wrong naturally have nothing to worry about. If you are blindfolded, you are blindfolded. If you are tested, you are tested. Those who are innocent have no guilty conscience.
But people who have done something wrong don’t think so.
Xu Ran and the Fourteenth Prince were the ones who caused the Thirteenth Prince to be stung by a bee. They were already thinking about how to make their hands black and then put them into the box to test so as to avoid disaster.
Otherwise, they just avoided the damn test.
But it's obviously unavoidable.
Jiujiu is a princess, and the most favored princess. Who dares to disobey her? Do you think your life is too long?
Even the teachers who taught in the study room did not dare to offend Jiujiu.
By now the class time had arrived and the teacher had arrived a long time ago, but seeing Jiujiu trying desperately to catch the murderer, he did not interrupt but waited quietly at the door.
The teacher is a great scholar of the time, with many students all over the world.
He didn't even dare to interrupt the little princess, so what could they do?
Xu Ran and the Fourteenth Prince gritted their teeth and resigned themselves to their fate. They chose the first method at the same time, which was to make their hands black before testing again.
Thinking of this, they took advantage of everyone's inattention and touched the inkstone where the ink had not yet dried with their index finger before blindfolding their eyes. The index finger instantly turned black.
They were afraid of being seen, so they quickly put their hands into their wide sleeves.
They plan to show their skills after the test.
In this way, it will not be tested.
The two of them smiled triumphantly.
So much so that I forgot to think about one question: why blindfold?
Jiujiu blindfolded people in order to prevent everyone from seeing the final test results and thus make them feel guilty about cheating.
The test has begun.
Led by the maid, the students in the upper study room put their hands into the box prepared by Jiujiu one by one to test it.
About an incense stick later, the test was over and the results came out.
Except for Xu Ran, the Fourteenth Prince, and their servants, whose left index fingers were black, the fingers of the rest of the people were clean without a single speck of black.
The blindfolds on the students were also removed.
Everyone looked at each other curiously. Whose hands turned black? Who was the one who really bullied the Thirteenth Prince and caused him to sit on the stool coated with honey and eventually be stung by a bee?
Unfortunately, all we see are clean hands.
"Ah, I didn't bully the Thirteenth Prince. How come my hands are clean and not black?"
"Isn't it true that only those with black on their hands are innocent?"
"Mine don't have any."
"Who has it?"
"I don't even have any."
"Neither have I."
The students looked at their hands with panic on their faces.
Only Xu Ran, the Fourteenth Prince, and their servants were not panicked at all.
The two looked at the black on their fingertips, smiled, and then smugly stretched out their hands to show everyone.
For fear that others might not see, they deliberately raised their arms high and slowly moved the black finger across in front of everyone's eyes.
"Look, I have black on my hands."
"I have, too."
"This proves that we did not bully the Thirteenth Prince. We are innocent."
Innocent?
Hehehe.
Those who had clean hands looked at Xu Ran, the Fourteenth Prince, and their servants with suspicion.
On weekdays, these people bullied the Thirteenth Prince the most harshly, and they also instigated everyone to bully him together.
Many people are in cahoots with them.
Do they have the nerve to claim innocence?
Don't be afraid of slipping your tongue when you brag.
Jiujiu also looked at the black on the hands of several people and clenched her small fists that were white with a hint of pink.
Xu Ran and the Fourteenth Prince had no idea what Jiujiu was thinking. They looked at the hands of the people around them with smugness, with frivolous smiles in their eyes.
Xu Ran also pointed at the people with clean fingers and said, "You, you, and all of you, your hands are all clean, there is no black on your hands, you must be the bad guys who caused the Thirteenth Prince to be stung by a bee."
"Little princess, punish them quickly, punish them severely."
"The Thirteenth Prince must not be stung by a bee in vain."
"We need to teach these people a lesson."
"It would be best if they were severely beaten with fifty sticks and then expelled from the palace."
Xu Ran was thinking that he didn't like any of the people around him, so he might as well take this opportunity to instigate the princess to get rid of them all, so that he could put his mind at ease.
Anyway, the little princess looks a little silly and seems easy to use.
It’s a waste if you don’t use it.
Jiujiu: “…”
These two idiots are so stupid that they are infuriating to both God and man.
