After passing the imperial edict, Wei Zhongxian came to Shen Muqing and said,""His Majesty also said that this old servant will listen from the side. After this matter is investigated, I will return to report.”
Shen Muqing knew that he couldn't offend Wei Zhongxian, so he said,""Then it must have been hard on Eunuch Gong. Someone come and take a seat for Eunuch Gong.”
Wei Zhongxian bowed respectfully and retreated to the side, sitting down on a small embroidered stool.
At this moment, someone outside began to sing,"The Wise King has arrived!"”
Wei Zhongxian had just sat down but did not stand up. He looked at the door and saw the Eighth Prince Zhu Yuanzhang walking in with big strides. Behind him were the East Military Hall's Factory Duke Liu Xi and the Second Military Governor Cao Zhengchun. They followed behind him like two bodyguards.
When he saw Shen Muqing, Zhu Yuanzhang had a smile on his face as if he was very close to him."Ninth Brother, today is also your first time attending a court interrogation, and it's such a difficult case. Father was worried that you wouldn't be able to take care of him alone, so he asked his brother to come over and help you. You just have to ask questions boldly.”
Shen Muqing smiled at Zhu Yuanzhang and said,""Oh, I see. I thought it was Eighth Imperial Brother who requested to come over!”
Without waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang to speak, he returned to the main seat and ordered his subordinates,"Give up your seats to the eight kings and the two eunuchs of the East Chamber.”
Zhu Yuanzhang's face flashed with a trace of embarrassment. He looked for a seat and sat down. Liu Xi and Cao Zhengchun looked at each other and said to Shen Muqing,"Thank you for the seat, Your Highness."
At this moment, the temperature in the room suddenly dropped by more than ten degrees.
Immediately after, a figure transformed into a ray of blue light and arrived in the hall. A woman wearing a veil walked in. She had gray hair, but her figure was graceful and extremely mysterious.
The woman whispered to Shen Muqing,""Yin Yang School's Underworld God greets Jiu Wangye.”
The Yin-Yang School that Ying Zheng controlled was a super powerful organization that was proficient in mystic arts and possessed the power of ghosts and gods.
When Human Emperor Xuan Yuan abolished the Hundred Schools of Thought and monopolized the imperial power, the Hundred Schools of Thought suffered a great loss. Only the School of Yin Yang had a unique vision and invested in the King of Qin, Ying Zheng. Not only did they not get destroyed, but they also absorbed the books of the Hundred Schools of Thought and gained a huge increase in their power.
The most profound impression that the Yin-Yang School gave people was that it was very mysterious and unpredictable. Even the East Chamber, which was also in the imperial court, could not find its source. Even if they knew everything about the families of the court officials, they did not know much about the Yin-Yang School.
Liu Xi glanced at the God of the Underworld. He felt that the God of the Underworld's cultivation was deep, but he could not tell his realm at all. Moreover, the gaze that bloomed in his eyes made people not dare to look at him. They also revealed solemn expressions.
Shen Muqing nodded and said,""Bestow your seat!"
After everyone was ready, Shen Muqing patted the gavel and said,""Bring Yue Nu to the palace."
The Moon Slave walked over leisurely, wearing mourning clothes and a sorrowful expression. He said,"The widowed Yue Nu of the Jiang family greets the ninth prince and all the lords.”
A pitiful look flashed across her face, making people feel that this woman was really pitiful. At the same time, the people sympathized with her and hated the murderer who had killed the Barkers.
Shen Muqing said to Mother Jiang,""Do you recognize this woman? Is she the wife of your son, Jiang Feng?”
Mother Jiang sized up the Moon Slave and nodded.""Wangye, I'm sure she's my daughter-in-law.”
Shen Muqing nodded." That's good. Moon Slave, tell me the whole story!"”
"Yes, sir."
