The hall continued to be quiet.
The monk looked up at Li Yi, sighed lightly, and slowly lowered his head.
Some timid women had already turned pale from the fright of the scene just now. The glazed statue was more than a foot high, and it was smashed so hard. If it really fell on the head of the monk, it would probably splatter blood today. Chongyuan Hall!
Then they thought of something, just now the monk clearly said that he doesn't know martial arts, but he doesn't know martial arts, how could he smash the glazed statue with his sleeves
The scene just now surprised them even more than what the eldest princess Xiaolu did.
However, how did Li Xianbo know that the monk knew martial arts
If he really couldn't, wouldn't he kill someone just now
And—he smashed it just now, but it was another glazed statue!
"Amitabha..." Several monks who had already spent money to buy the glazed statue looked at the debris on the ground and sighed, with expressions of hopelessness.
The corners of Emperor Jing's mouth twitched, and his face showed pain. This is another glass statue. After being thrown by him like this, at least 20,000 taels will be wiped out...
Chen Chong was stunned for a moment, pointed at the monk on the ground, and said angrily: "Old monk, you still said you don't know martial arts!"
"Take it!"
Emperor Jing waved his hand, and immediately two guards stepped forward to arrest the monk.
Concubine Cui's face turned cold, she looked at Li Yi and asked, "Who told you to smash that glazed statue!"
Only then did everyone realize that the old monk's lie had been exposed, but—the price paid was too high, right
A glazed statue, if they remember correctly, this glazed statue was sold for nearly 30,000 taels of silver just now, that is to say, 30,000 taels were lost after Mr. Li Xianbo smashed it like this...
Even if the glazed statue has nothing to do with them, I can't help but feel a little distressed at this moment...
Before Li Yi could speak, Jing Zhaoyin and Dong Wenyun came out and said, "Your Majesty, in order to expose the monk's lies, Li Xianbo smashed this glazed statue in a moment of desperation. It's justifiable..."
"Uncle Li is quick-witted, Shen admires..." the man surnamed Shen said just now.
"My lord Dong is right, and Li Xianbo is also in a hurry. In the final analysis, the responsibility is still on this monk."
If Dong Wenyun and Shen Xiu stood up because Li Xianbo helped Shen Su out of the siege just now, then what Chen Qing said surprised everyone.
Chen Qing, representing the Chen family, openly contradicted the imperial concubine
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, this monk is the culprit. The two Buddha statues should be blamed on him." Another person walked out of the crowd and said with a smile.
Seeing that even the Patriarch of the Wang family stood up, the expressions on the faces of many people were a little shocked.
Old General Xue's rough voice came later: "Your Majesty, it's better to ask this old monk first what kind of bad intentions he had, and then punish him, and let them pay compensation."
As soon as General Xue finished speaking, Yan Bing, Minister of the Ministry of War, stood up.
Qin Huan, Minister of the Ministry of household affairs.
Minister of the Ministry of punishment.
Minister of Dali Temple.
Another veteran...
…
…
Concubine Cui Guifei's face was gloomy and terrifying, and the officials belonging to the lineage of King Shu opened their mouths in astonishment.
It's not surprising that the Shen family came forward, nor was it surprising that Yan Bing, Minister of the Ministry of War, spoke for him. Jiangmen had a tendency to protect him a long time ago, but...
The Luochuan royal family, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and the officials and dignitaries related to them... When did they have such a close relationship with him
Everyone knows that Li Yi, the uncle of Chang'an County, is at odds with the King of Shu, and even more so with the officials of the King of Shu. Everyone only thinks that he can maintain the current situation by relying on His Majesty's holy family. Time, sooner or later...
But who would have thought that his influence in the court would be so great
Doesn't it mean that if he supports a certain prince, with the support of these people behind him, all the advantages of the King of Shu will disappear, and the advantages will immediately become disadvantages...
For a while, the old monk was ignored by everyone...
Li Yi was also a little stunned. What kind of fun is the Chen family joining in on? Qin Huan, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, came to him specifically last time to ask him to train more talents that the Ministry of Household Affairs could use. This time, is he paying back favors
Dali Siqing, last time Li Xuan said that they were his own people, what happened to the other people, they are completely unfamiliar...
Oh, by the way, among the people who gave gifts to the family a few days ago, some of them seemed familiar...
The people around were still whispering, Emperor Jing glanced to the side, Chang De nodded, stepped forward and asked: "Say, why did you do this?"
The monk looked calm and silent.
"Why doesn't this monk talk anymore?"
"It's tens of thousands of taels of silver, can he afford it?"
"I'm also curious, does this monk have enmity with the Chen family?"
…
…
While everyone was whispering, Li Yi suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I seem to have seen just now that the master and... the princess said a few words..."
He spoke very lightly in the first half of the sentence, except for the word "Princess", which he bit heavily.
"What?" Emperor Jing didn't hear Li Yi's words clearly, and asked suspiciously, "What did you just say?"
"Amitabha..." The old monk finally spoke, and said, "The poor monk and Princess Hui have never met before, this lord may have misunderstood it."
Chang De glanced at Li Yi, and with his master's ear strength, he couldn't hear what Li Yi said about the princess just now, so he looked at him and asked, "You just said that the monk talked to Princess Hui?"
"No..." Li Yi shook his head, and said, "I thought about it, I seem to have misjudged the person just now, what did Mr. Chang say about Princess Hui?"
The old monk looked up at him, with an expression of disbelief in his eyes, and finally lowered his head.
"The Bo of Li County is so wise that the poor monk has nothing to say."
After saying this sentence, the old monk was speechless.
After a short period of silence, the crowd silently gave way to the road, and Princess Hui stood at the end of the road with a pale face.
"Queen, let you handle this matter." Emperor Jing said lightly, glanced at Li Yi, and said, "You come with me."
Seeing Emperor Jing walking towards the apse, Li Yi shook his head and followed.
"This time, I, the Chen family, don't owe you anything." When walking past Chen Chong, he glanced at Li Yi and said in a low voice.
Li Yi turned to look at Miss Chen Jiasan, and said, "Remember to ask the imperial doctor to treat the wound again, and don't touch the water these few days."
Watching his back disappear, some officials gathered together in the crowd, their faces slightly gloomy.
"I didn't expect that he would have such an influence in the court..."
"If he is allowed to develop, there will be future troubles!"
"Hmph, if it's not like today, it's okay to make friends and violate His Majesty's big taboo. Do you think his holy family can continue?"
There was a sneer on one person's face, and after the rest of the people were stunned for a moment, smiles appeared on their faces.
In the apse, Emperor Jing sat on the main seat, looked at Li Yi, with a look of pain on his face, and said, "If you fall, the treasury will lose 20,000 taels of silver..."
"Your Majesty, it's 10,000 taels." Li Yi reminded him, "Did you forget that there is still half of the subject..."
The expression on Emperor Jing's face twitched, and he changed the subject: "How do you know that old monk knows martial arts?"
"I don't know..."
"..." Emperor Jing was slightly stunned, and asked, "Then you dare to smash it like that?"
Li Yi looked at him and said, "Didn't I slip my hands, besides, I have apologized..."
"Last question." Emperor Jing took a deep breath and asked, "How do you know it's Princess Hui?"
Concubine Cui Gui is too scheming to do such a thing. To be able to set up such an idiot game on such an occasion, her IQ must be low to a certain extent. Princess Hui obviously agrees with this condition, and she is not Do it for the first time.
Chen Chong broke Duanyang County King's ribs. She had a motive for revenge. Of course, when he and the eldest princess came in just now, that Princess Hui gave him a cold look, which made him very uncomfortable. This is also an important reason one…
All in all, all in all, Li Yi thought about it, looked at Emperor Jing and said, "Guess..."
