Chapter 199 Hunting and Counter-Hunting (2)
"I, I just asked for the peace charm in the temple, just to keep everything going smoothly. I didn't do anything else."
The handsome men were obviously a little panicked. Xie Yujin's visit came so unexpectedly that they were not even mentally prepared and were looking for excuses.
Xie Yujin raised her hand gently, picked up the small tea can, tilted it slightly, and dropped the green tea leaves into the purple clay pot: "Indeed, praying to gods and worshiping Buddha was a custom in Jingguo in the past, but your Majesty now hates it very much. Since you are willing His Majesty’s future harem is successful, but he does not know the Sacred Heart.”
He sighed in disappointment, then poured the hot water into the pot accurately. The aroma of tea overflowed instantly, and the tea leaves rolled and stretched in the water.
"I, I will hand over my things immediately. I no longer deserve to carry these."
"Me too, I was confused and put my hope on this thing."
Because they were afraid that they would miss out on the palace election, even if they were reluctant to give up, the handsome men all made a decision.
Xiu Nan decisively pulled out the talisman bag and embroidery bag that he had "worked hard" for and threw them aside. If it weren't for the inelegance and propriety of doing so, they would all want to trample them a few steps to show their firm attitude.
They thought they could escape this disaster by doing this, but in the end they underestimated Xie Yujin's intentions. He went to all the trouble to get rid of dissidents and control all the people in the show under his control. in hand.
"If you are loyal to your Majesty, you should investigate more carefully."
Gather the pure tea soup in the fair cup, pick up the fair cup, and evenly divide the tea into the exquisite tea cups. The fragrance of the tea will rise and refresh your heart and mind.
Xie Yujin's eyes fell on the teacups for dividing tea, and his eyes were like a deep pool with no bottom visible.
"The next step is to check whether anyone is using sorcery to seduce Holy Grace with ulterior motives."
At this time, Nangong Fei was among them, pretending to be the cousin of King Shou. He secretly thought: Your Majesty is the number one person in magic nowadays. Who else in the world can bewitch her?
Is Xie Yujin’s behavior probably due to ulterior motives?
But this suited him just fine.
If they want to find out the clues, they can only detect the methods of ordinary magicians. They must not be able to detect the magic on him, so Nangong Fei is not nervous at all.
Instead, it was as if he were watching a play, watching the handsome men present being fooled around by Xie Yujin, panicking and feeling uneasy.
Seeing that the deterrence was as expected, Xie Yujin asked the palace guards to organize the people into seven rows and line them up one by one for inspection.
He stood up and walked forward, his eyes passing over them one by one.
Wei Ting clasped his fists: "Young Master, we have searched them all. This is what we found on them."
More than twenty handsome men were pushed out by the guards. They were unwilling to do so, with their heads lowered and their hands and feet stiff.
Looking at the pile of miscellaneous things on the ground, he knew there was definitely something wrong without having to investigate.
"What is this?" There was just the right amount of confusion on his perfectly proportioned face.
A handsome man quickly explained: "This is, it's a jade pendant. It's definitely not a magic spell."
"This is just a sachet."
"This thing is not mine, I don't know how it appeared on me."
In short, they all started arguing. Xie Yujin looked calm and seemed to be listening patiently without any interruption.
Seeing his calm expression, the handsome men felt uneasy for some reason, and their voices gradually became quieter and quieter until they stopped.
"Are you done?"
They didn't dare to say anything, but looked at him anxiously.
"These objects are all vessels that have been enchanted by others. You went to Wanbao Weapon Shop and everything you bought and sold was recorded. Now this list is in my hand and I need to read it out one by one. ”
Their expressions changed when they heard this, and they were immediately horrified. "The most taboo thing in the palace is to use witchcraft on His Majesty. You have made a big mistake now, and you must accept the punishment."
Xie Yujin sighed deeply, showing the most genuine sadness.
欻!
The guards all had cold faces, unsheathed their sabers, and pressed them against the bewildered Xiu Nan's neck. They didn't even have any room to react, and blood spilled on the spot.
"Ah——"
The handsome men who were not executed were frightened and fell to the ground, kicking their legs to escape.
Nangong Yu also turned pale and was stunned on the spot.
When the guard's knife was placed on his head, the cold blade touched the warm skin. Cold sweat broke out all over his body. He closed his eyes in fear and his eyelashes trembled violently.
He subconsciously shouted: "Xu Shanshan, save me——"
"Wait a minute."
Xie Yujin immediately stopped the guards who were preparing for the execution. He stepped forward with great interest, and his ethereal voice was very gentle: "Who were you calling to save you just now?"
Nangong Yu opened his eyes suddenly, his heart still pounding. When he met Xie Yujin's clear spring eyes that were seeking knowledge, he couldn't help but shudder.
He knew that if he couldn't answer Xie Yujin correctly, he would definitely be doomed.
But in fact, he didn't know who could save him just now, so he just instinctively called out that name.
"I, I..."
"If you don't answer properly..." Xie Yujin took the knife from the guard's hand, put it against Nangong Yu's chest, and kindly reminded: "Maybe you won't have a chance to speak again."
Among the crowd, Gu Yue Jiarong did not react to the killing at first. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen bodies of Xiu Nan who had been tried and found guilty fell on the ground, and he was shocked to realize how crazy Xie Yujin was.
Seeing that he was forcing another trembling showman to answer, he immediately wanted to step forward, but the next second, a strong hurricane blew up behind him.
Ten yellow talismans painted with cinnabar turned into huge fireballs in mid-air and rushed towards Xie Yujin. Tingwei reacted in time and immediately struck down a fireball with his scabbard.
"There are assassins, protect Mr. Xie."
"Just you?"
A man with handsome features jumped up. There was a bead chain hanging on his wrist. When he shook it, it made a clear sound of water. The guard who rushed forward immediately had a splitting headache and covered his head and groaned.
The next second, a needle-like blue light shot out, and the guards in the front row screamed and died.
Seeing the chaos, Gu Yuejia Rong took the opportunity to rush forward and quickly pulled Xiu Nan away, who seemed to be frightened.
Nangong Yu actually knew Gu Yue Jiarong. He had met him when he followed Xu Shanshan in Sheyuan, and he also knew that he was Xu Shanshan's fiancé.
For some unknown reason, Nangong Yu felt uncomfortable being rescued by Gu Yue Jiarong, so he forcefully withdrew his hand and distanced himself from him.
Gu Yuejiarong was confused by his actions and looked at him with frowning eyebrows.
At this time, the situation on Xie Yujin's end was not good. The magicians mixed in the crowd of handsome men were besieging and chasing him. One of them clasped his hands together and spoke a series of mysterious spells. In the blink of an eye, the man's pupils suddenly changed, and one of his eyes It was normal, but one eye turned into a beast pupil.
Half of his body also changed. His hands were like animal claws, and his jumping ability was amazing. He jumped up and went straight for Xie Yujin's throat.
Seeing these people's confident looks, Xie Yujin wanted to laugh, but he didn't hide anymore, but stood calmly and calmly.
At this time, a mysterious and powerful wave of power came from his body, and a huge ice-blue curtain rose from Xie Yujin's feet, blocking all murderous intentions for him.
