"You're talking nonsense!" Xia Wanli said harshly, "You're a fugitive. The people from the Eagle Magistrate's Office will definitely arrest you when they see you. Do you think you can turn resisting arrest into self-defense with your glib tongue?"
"This is the second reason why I came to see you, Your Highness." Yan Li said.
"Speak." Ji Wuji said.
Yan Li cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, I'll let you know that I've been persecuted by the Dragon Emperor's Mansion with groundless charges ever since I came to this world. Until now, all the charges are completely unfounded. Someone abused his power to achieve his goal …"
Speaking of this, he frowned and hurriedly covered his mouth, coughing a few times.
Ji Wuyu's eyes flickered when he noticed the dark red blood seeping out from the gaps between his fingers.
"I'm sorry, I caught a cold a few days ago …" His face was as pale as a piece of paper. It didn't look as simple as a cold. However, no one cared about whether he was suffering from a cold or an injury. They only wanted to know who he was accusing.
At this moment, Lone Eagle's expression gradually changed.
Yan Li looked at him and said coldly, "And the one who abused his power is this God Arrester, Lone Eagle. In the beginning, he tried to use me to steal the Witch God's Mirror from Fei Peng Fort, so he accused me of being a pervert. Because I refused to submit, a series of conflicts occurred. Of course, you can deny it. It doesn't matter anyway. Now, I'd like to know what crime the Dragon Emperor Mansion has accused me of. "
Of course, no one would believe a one-sided story. Even if what he said was true, no one would be stupid enough to take it seriously.
"What Witch God's Mirror? I've never heard of it. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I'll charge you with slandering an official of the imperial court!" Lone Eagle shouted sternly, "Listen to me again. The entire Jian Clan was killed. Someone saw you traveling with Huang Tianba, the leader of the Greenwood Gang. The Dragon Emperor Mansion suspects that you colluded with the Greenwood Gang to commit murder, arson, and robbery. Mansion Head Liang went to catch you, but you're still missing. He said that you didn't do it!"
This question was extremely absurd. Hearing it, everyone couldn't help but feel that Lone Eagle was trying anything in a hurry. Although the truth was just as the Lone Eagle had said, the truth was often the most easily overlooked.
Just like the truth of Yan Li killing Liang Wen, in their hearts, it was something that was impossible to happen.
Yan Li mockingly said, "You said that I colluded with the Lulin people, you only need to find someone to accuse me, isn't that right? In that case, I will also accuse you of colluding with the people of the Underworld to massacre the Jian family. In any case, I just need to find someone to testify for me. "No," Yan Li said, "I don't know."
"Speaking of Manor Lord Liang, I have been seated since the beginning of the birthday banquet and have not left once. May I ask if the person Manor Lord Liang is going to capture is really me, Yan Li?"
Yan Wuyu said. "Ji" Yan, "Ji said," If Yan, "Yan, Yan, Yan," Yi, "Yan Yan," Yan.
"Yan," Ji, Ji King said, "Yan.," Yan Yan Yan, "Yan, Yan Yan King Don., King from Wu, Feng," King.
Ji Wuyu smiled and said, "This is the Eastern Palace. Everything should be decided by Imperial Brother."
He turned to Ji Wuji, "What do you think?"
Ji Wuji's expression was still calm, "I don't care about the Residence of Dragon Emperor and I don't want to know how it works. If he's guilty, he'll be interrogated. If he's innocent, he'll be released. It's not that complicated."
Yan Li's heart sank. He realized that he was too simple-minded. The conflict between the Crown Prince and the Second Prince was not as serious as he had imagined. He was afraid that he couldn't achieve a win-win situation. No matter how he calculated, he still missed a step.
In the chess game of life and death, one mistake was enough to be fatal.
Lone Eagle slowly smiled and said in a deep voice, "Yan Li, there's a path to heaven but you don't want to take it. There's no door to hell but you barge in! Whether he's guilty or not, follow me back to the Eagle Yamen and interrogate him. Then the truth will be revealed. "
He stared at Ji Wuji, but the latter didn't look at him anymore. His heart gradually cooled down.
What should he do?
Resist?
He would be killed on the spot!
He was only one step away!
After the examination, even if he couldn't get into the top three, he could still get the qualification to be enlightened. At that time, he would have a bright future.
He didn't expect to fail at the last step.
His eyes slowly turned to Ji Wuyi.
Ji Wuyi was still arrogant and seemed to have no intention of getting involved in this matter.
Feeling the mocking eyes of Xia Wanli and Liu Xiangxiu, the disdain and contempt of the royal descendants, and Lone Eagle who was approaching, he took a deep breath and forcibly restrained his impulse to draw his sword.
A little impatience would spoil great plans!
"Humph! I heard that Xiao Wang's lackey is causing trouble here. Where is he? Where is he? How dare he make trouble at the Crown Prince's birthday banquet? Let's see if Xiao Wang breaks his legs! "
At this moment, a group of three rudely pushed aside the guards who were blocking them and strode up from downstairs. The person in the lead was a young man who was about sixteen or seventeen years old. He had delicate features, red lips, and white teeth. He had a pair of cunning and quick-witted eyes. When he saw Yan Li's back, he showed a happy expression.
Ji Hyun-woon appeared in the attic just in time.
Yan Li was startled. Soon after, he slowly smiled.
"You're a lackey!" Ji Hyun-woon laughed and scolded, "So he's here. What are you two waiting for? Take Xiao Wang down!"
"Yes!"
The two people behind him were the black-faced Lu Hanqing and the old man Yuan Fulun.
They were familiar with Yan Li. They directly walked to his left and right and held him down while looking at Lone Eagle threateningly.
Lone Eagle frowned and had to look at Ji Wuyu.
"Xuan Yun, what are you doing?" Ji Wuyu's face darkened. There was a frightening aura brewing on his face.
"Second Brother," Ji Hyun-woon said with a smile, "I'm catching my lackey. That's right, it's this Yan Li. "
He casually cupped his hands at Ji Wuji and said, "Brother Crown Prince, this guy dared to make trouble in the East Palace behind my back. He's making me lose face. I can't take it anymore. I'm going to take him back and teach him a lesson. You don't mind, do you?"
Only he dared to speak to Ji Wuji like this because he had Wei Wangjing behind him.
Even though he was only a Crown Prince, he had two Perfected Earth Immortals as guards. Even Princess Duanyang did not have this kind of treatment.
Ji Wuji said coldly, "If it's yours, it's yours. If it's not yours, it's not yours."
What he meant was, "Don't play dumb in front of me. We all know whether this guy is yours or not."
"Then let him say it himself." Ji Hyun-woon nudged Yan Li. "Hey, pig head, tell them, are you my lackey?"
