Qin Ying is furious

Qin Ying's eyes flashed with cold light: "What did you say!"

When he heard what Monk Yan Kong said, the murderous intent in his heart was like adding fuel to the fire, and he couldn't suppress it in an instant.

He strode forward, grabbed Yan Kong's collar with one hand, and directly lifted up the malicious old monk, with his feet off the ground.

"Old bald donkey, do you want to touch my woman?"

Qin Ying was angry and slapped him directly.

Snap!

The crisp sound of slapping resounded throughout the Golden Palace.

At this moment.

All the civil and military officials were dumbfounded.

Even the Han Emperor was stunned for a moment.

Yan Kong didn't expect that the ninth prince Qin Ying would dare to be so arrogant and slap him in the face in public.

Before he came to his senses, blood had seeped from the corner of his mouth.

His kind face also became a little gloomy at this moment, but he did not do anything, but let Qin Ying pinch him.

"Old Nine, you are crazy!"

"This is the presiding officer Yan Kong, how dare you be so presumptuous!"

The eldest prince and the eighth prince both roared, rushed over quickly to push Qin Ying away, and saved Yan Kong.

During the tearing process, Qin Ying pulled off Yan Kong's collar, and at that moment, he actually saw that there was a lotus tattoo on the shoulder of the old monk.

But he only saw it once, and Yan Kong quickly pulled the cassock to cover it.

Tattoo!

How can a monk have a tattoo?

The Han Dynasty and the other six countries are collectively known as the Seven Hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period, but this Spring and Autumn refers to the calendar, not the place name.

The land where these seven countries are located is actually the Central Plains.

The people of the Central Plains do not have the habit of tattooing.

This tattoo was called tattoo in ancient times. The Han people followed the education that the body and skin were given by their parents. Even if they could not cut their hair, how could they tattoo their bodies?

In the Central Plains, only criminals would have tattoos on their bodies, which was considered a lifelong shame.

Huangjue Temple has a history of a hundred years in the Han Dynasty, and all the people there are Han people. How could they have tattoos on their shoulders?

"Ying'er! What are you doing!"

Qin Ying was thinking when a roar interrupted his thoughts.

The Han emperor was furious, and Long Xiao seemed to shake the floor tiles of the Golden Palace loose.

"Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince dared to slap Yan Kong, this is against the law and should be punished!"

"Yes, in this Golden Palace, the Ninth Prince openly did such a stupid thing, which is simply a disgrace to the dignity of the royal family, and he should be punished!"

"Please punish the Ninth Prince Qin Ying, Your Majesty!"

All the civil and military officials accused him.

Especially the civil officials led by Wang Mingsong, who were all red-faced and criticized, wishing to immediately destroy Qin Ying in this palace.

Listening to the scolding, Qin Ying's heart was filled with anger, and his blood almost gushed out.

He yelled, "Shut up, all of you!"

With this roar, Qin Ying used the true energy in his body for the first time, and the whole hall seemed to tremble a few times, and there was even some dust floating in the air.

His tone was full of murderous intent and coldness, as well as the uncontrollable rage.

Qin Ying was not so angry that these people were targeting him.

But they were targeting his women.

Liu Yunxian, Chun'er, or Qingmei, the four sisters Xia Yu, Qiu Shuang, and Dong Xue?

No matter who it was, Qin Ying couldn't stand it.

In the Golden Palace.

Everyone was shocked by Qin Ying's roar.

The Han Emperor looked at him in surprise.

"Your Majesty."

At this awkward moment.

Grand Tutor Chen Songtai stood up and said, "I think the Ninth Prince is not at fault. Although Yan Kong is only interested in catching monsters, his words are inappropriate. Any man would be angry."

"If Yan Kong is targeting the ladies in your majesty's harem, would your majesty be angry?"

The Grand Tutor had just finished speaking.

The court was suddenly silent.

Everyone was amazed at the Grand Tutor's courage.

He dared to compare you with your majesty?

This is very disrespectful.

What is the relationship between the Grand Tutor and the Ninth Prince that he stood up to speak for him at this time.

Qin Ying felt warm in his heart.

It's worth my invitation to you.

It seems that the old Grand Tutor is on his side now, which is a good thing.

"This old minister also agrees with what Grand Master Chen said."

At this time, Song Henian, the dean of Huanzhang Academy, also stood up and said, "It is understandable that the Ninth Prince is young and impulsive. Yan Kong did not know how to speak properly and offended the female relatives of the prince. It is not unfair to be slapped."

The dean's words were even more straightforward.

While speaking, he also glanced at Yan Kong.

The old monk's face was gloomy, and his teeth were almost broken.

Qin Ying looked deeply at the dean.

He didn't think that Song Henian would stand up and speak for him.

Qin Ying didn't have much contact with these ministers. The only one who took the initiative to win him over was Chen Songtai.

There was no communication with Song Henian.

It seems that after this incident, Qin Ying will also go to visit him.

"Forget it."

After a long silence, the Han emperor just snorted coldly.

These are all old ministers, each of whom has worked hard and made great contributions. Although they are nominally the emperor and his subjects, the Han emperor has long regarded them as outsiders.

Only these two dared to speak like this. If it were someone else, the Han emperor would have had them dragged out and punished.

However, the Han emperor's "forget it" made Monk Yankong lower his head, but his eyes were a little more fierce.

"Father, how can this be..."

The eldest prince was a fool and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the eighth prince Qin Zhou's elbow on the waist.

Qin Zhou's eyes were dim.

Father, you still favor the ninth prince.

The identity of the abbot of Huangjue Temple is not ordinary. Just let it go after being slapped? If it were someone else, if they dared to do such an extraordinary thing in the morning court of the Golden Palace, they would have been sent to prison.

It seems that although the father is very concerned about the matter of the demon fox, he still favors the ninth prince in his heart.

"Your Majesty, no matter what, it is imperative to hold a ceremony today."

Wang Mingsong stood up again and made a suggestion.

"The court must give an explanation to the people."

Wang Mingsong continued:

"People in the folk have been harmed by fox demons, and the spearhead is pointed at the ninth prince. If the court does not give a reasonable explanation, I am afraid that the people's resentment will boil and it will be difficult to calm down."

"Especially those refugees who have just suffered from the disaster. They believe in their hearts that this natural disaster is a sign, and it is the work of He Bo and the fox demon."

Hearing this, the Han Emperor also felt very

troublesome. The people's resentment must not be violated. From ancient times to the present, no court can ignore the people's voice and anger.

Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. Once the bottom line is touched, people all over the country will rise up.

Even if it cannot overthrow the entire empire, it will inevitably cause the court to suffer. Wouldn't that be an advantage for foreign enemies?

"Okay, then let's start the ritual!"

At this point, the Han Emperor could only give the order: "Go to Wutong Garden."

After the Han Emperor finished speaking, there was a round of approval in the court.

At this time, Monk Yankong actually looked at Qin Ying with a rather cold look in his eyes, as if announcing his victory.

Qin Ying's face was not very good, and his five fingers were pinched until they turned white.

Damn it! What a vicious plan!

This old bald donkey is definitely in the same group as Wang Mingsong, and their main attack this time is not Qin Ying.

Because they know that no matter how much they frame and smear Qin Ying, the Han Emperor will not execute Qin Ying.

The Han Emperor likes this ninth son from the bottom of his heart.

However, it is not necessarily the case for others.

To make a person suffer, you don't have to kill him.

Killing the important people around him can also make Qin Ying live a life worse than death.

Qin Ying's eyes flashed coldly. He had figured this out, but there was no way to crack it at present.

The key point of this game lies in the superstition in the hearts of the ancients.

If he could break the superstition and make people believe that there are no ghosts and gods in the world, then this conspiracy would be easily broken.

But this is difficult - unless he can catch the person pretending to be a fox demon.

"Ninth Prince, please lead the way."

Monk Yankong smiled coldly.
