On one side, there was a weak teenager who was crying and almost suffocating with fear. On the other side, there was a noble princess who didn't care at all and seemed to be listening to a story.
Everyone had a big question mark in their hearts.
He Tian looked at Lin Mengya and suppressed the urge to question her. After all, she was not his little apprentice, and he couldn't ask her at will.
At least, he couldn't ask before there was definite evidence.
The four imperial physicians quickly exchanged glances. In the end, it was Su Tong, who was the most respected, who spoke.
"Xiaofeng's words are not enough to believe. Imperial Physician He, why don't you find your apprentice? If we confront him on the spot, no one will be wronged. "
Everyone nodded in agreement with this proposal. After all, with Lin Mengya's identity, how could they easily convict Lin Mengya based on Xiaofeng's words?
Lin Mengya looked at them quietly, but her mind was working rapidly.
For Xiaofeng to be so fearless, it was likely that the expert behind him had already arranged everything long ago. As long as she took a wrong step, she would be thrown into the abyss.
Therefore, she had to be careful everywhere. Now, it was better to see what tricks the other party was going to use. She could only deal with it as it came.
"Yes, go and find Liu Yi. If you find him, we will know the truth."
He Tian must have believed it a little, so he looked at Lin Mengya with a little suspicion in his eyes.
Su Tong immediately asked someone to find Liu Yi, but Lin Mengya knew in her heart. Since the other party could be so certain, if this Liu Yi was not dead, he would be imprisoned by someone.
Xiaofeng just knelt on the ground and cried, looking very pitiful. Lin Mengya looked at him coldly, waiting to see how far this good show would go.
The imperial physician of the imperial harem was definitely not allowed to go in. Soon, a disciple who went out to look for him came back to report. They just glared at Lin Mengya, and Baisu stared back rudely.
"Judge, I've found Senior Brother Liu Yi, but … but …"
Someone immediately reported back to the judge, but he hesitated as if he was very embarrassed.
"Say it!"
Su Tong immediately glared at him. The person with his head down gritted his teeth and looked at Lin Mengya with hidden anger in his eyes.
"Senior Liu Yi is dead! The corpse is just outside the yard! "
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked. Only Lin Mengya remained calm. The show had reached its climax.
Liu Yi was dead, so she had become the number one suspect in everyone's eyes.
Xiao Feng immediately cried out in grief, and a few people outside carried the corpse in. Liu Yi was a young man in his twenties with delicate features. But now, his face was deathly pale. His expression was serene, and his eyes were closed.
Liu Yizai's relationship with these young disciples was quite good, so as soon as he entered, many of them covered their faces and wept.
"Liu Yi! Liu Yi! My disciple, how … how did you become like this! Princess Yu! Return my disciple! Give me back my disciple! "
The pain of losing his disciple caused He Tian to temporarily lose his rationality. Like an enraged lion, he shouted at Lin Mengya with hatred in his eyes.
Now, all the apprentices in the yard were united against a common enemy. Lin Mengya suddenly became the target of public criticism.
"Avenge Liu Yi! Punish the murderer severely! "
No one knew who shouted in the crowd, but everyone shouted at Lin Mengya.
Lin Mengya, who did not refute a word from the beginning to the end, just glanced at them lightly. Her cherry lips slightly opened, and her gentle and elegant voice did not even raise its pitch.
"Even if I did it, who among you here is qualified to punish me? How dare you accuse me of being a murderer with just your mouth? Could it be that this is a show that the Imperial Hospital has put on together? In that case, I would like to see how you are going to slander me and force me to be the scapegoat. "
Like a basin of cold water, Lin Mengya's cold tone instantly made Su Tong and He Tian, the two old guys, sober.
She was right. With her identity as Princess Yu, even if she killed them, no one dared to punish her easily. They were all people who had been in the officialdom, so they naturally knew the seriousness of it.
"So what if you're the princess? You're the princess, so you can take advantage of your identity to disregard human life? Punish the murderer severely! Avenge Senior Brother Liu Yi! "
Hatred was the best way to blind a person's eyes.
Some people claimed to be righteous, but they did not know that they were the ones being used.
"If you want to know whether this person was killed by me or not, you have to carefully examine the body and find out the cause of this person's death. But one thing you have to know is that I won't kill Liu Yi. Especially at this time, the identity of Princess Yu can make many people work for me. If I want to cover up the crime, I have a hundred ways to make this body disappear without a trace. "
Lin Mengya did not explain in a pure and seductive tone. Instead, her domineering and a little disdainful look made everyone dare not act rashly.
"Humph, maybe you were interrupted and acted in a hurry!"
There were different opinions in the crowd. Lin Mengya did not pay attention to this unreasonable behavior, but walked to the side of the body.
"What else do you want to do to Senior Brother Liu Yi!"
Someone came out to stop her, but after Lin Mengya's sharp eyes flew over, the other party was no longer so confident.
"What are you nervous about? There are so many people present. Will I destroy the body to get rid of the evidence? Or are you afraid that I will find out some clues, so you stop me here? "
Anyway, it was not the first time that she had done an autopsy. On such an occasion and with so many imperial physicians present, she was not afraid that someone would deny it.
After hearing Lin Mengya's words, the man choked. He just stared blankly, but could not say anything to refute.
Lin Mengya bypassed him and examined Liu Yi's body.
Everyone gradually surrounded her. Fortunately, with Baisu's presence, no one dared to come up and make trouble.
On the surface, Liu Yi did not seem to have any external injuries. Through his clothes, she also pinched his stiff limbs. His limbs were stable and there was no sign of breaking.
Lin Mengya raised Liu Yi's hands again. His fingers were spread apart, not clenched into fists, and there was no blood. There was still a faint smell of herbs on them.
Liu Yi was He Tian's beloved disciple, so he naturally piled up herbs all day long. There was nothing unusual about this.
His chest and abdomen were still a little soft. The time of death should be last night. A silent smile rose in Lin Mengya's heart. But the murderer must not have thought of it. Yesterday, the 10th prince suddenly had an attack, and she stayed by his side.
This matter was not only seen by the people around her. In Concubine Xian's palace, the eunuchs and palace maids who came and went also saw it clearly.
But fortunately, she did not let the imperial physicians enter the palace last night, so now there should be no one knowing.
She already had the evidence to exonerate herself. But it would be a pity to say it now.
She already had the mood to tease the murderer in her heart. Lin Mengya deliberately made the expression on her face a little serious.
"Judging from the degree of stiffness, he did die last night. But I can't find any wounds, and he doesn't look like he was poisoned. To be fair, it's better to invite Imperial Physician Su and Imperial Physician He to come and have a look. "
Lin Mengya seemed to avoid arousing suspicion. Su Tong and He Tian were naturally duty-bound.
They nodded and looked at each other. Then, like Lin Mengya, they began to check Liu Yi's body. And the two of them also acquiesced to Lin Mengya's words.
Just when everyone fell into silence, blood slowly flowed out of the top of Liu Yi's head. And dark red blood suddenly flowed out of his seven orifices and five sense organs, which had been closed.
"It's … it's Senior Brother Liu Yi's ghost that hasn't gone far! That was why he shed tears of blood! Teacher, you must punish the murderer severely! "
Xiaofeng pointed at Liu Yi's body in horror, and Lin Mengya turned to look. Sure enough, it was just as he said. The originally clean corpse had now become bloody and terrifying.
"Teacher, teacher, Senior Brother Liu Yi's ghost should not go far at this moment. He … he must have heard Princess Yu's words, so he feels so wronged! "
Xiaofeng's embellishment immediately made the emotions that had just calmed down rise again.
"Oh? Really? Let me have a look. "
But Xiaofeng ran over like crazy, stretched out his arms, and stood in front of her. He looked at her with hatred in his eyes, as if he wanted to eat her alive.
"Don't desecrate Senior Brother Liu Yi's body anymore! We all saw it clearly just now. If you hadn't touched Senior Brother Liu Yi's body, he wouldn't have shed tears of blood! "
His words stirred up quite a number of disciples.
Lin Mengya's face darkened, and she didn't want to talk nonsense with him anymore. After exchanging a look with Baisu, Baisu instantly put everyone on the ground.
"You …"
These people didn't expect that Lin Mengya dared to hurt them without saying a word. Although they were all men, compared with Baisu, who was highly skilled in martial arts, they were just trash with a fighting capacity of five.
"If you're not afraid of death, come and have a try."
Baisu's face was as cold as ice, and she stood behind Lin Mengya to protect her. For a moment, no one dared to come forward.
Lin Mengya sneered in her heart. Look, this is the justice these people talked about. In the face of absolute power, they still chose to be a coward.
Lin Mengya squatted on the head of the body, and she just thought of a possibility.
