One second to remember [Brushstroke Pavilion] [Free of charge, read the wonderful novel!]

There was a monstrous fire burning in Baili Qing Cang's eyes as he glared at Wu Chen, "Wu Chen, is what Lady Wang said true?"

Cold sweat covered Wu Chen's forehead. He could not maintain his demeanor as a high monk. "Reporting to the Emperor, I would not have a son if I did not know this woman."

"He lied!"

Just as Wu Chen finished speaking, a stern shout came from outside the door. A woman, dressed as a woman, walked in with an eight to nine-year-old child.

"This humble woman pays her respects to the Emperor and the lords." She was wearing an extremely simple and unadorned blue skirt. It looked very old and worn out, but it was very neat and tidy.

Baili Qingqing's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, "Who are you?"

"This humble woman is this fake monk's wife, Lady Li!"

What? This time, everyone was not stunned. They were all shocked. It's fine if you have a wife and children, but there's more than one?

Madame Li knelt on the ground and said with a sharp voice, "Reporting to the emperor, this humble woman originally had a good family background. Later on, this fake monk came to my house to shelter from the rain, and after my father talked with him and admired him, he asked if he had a wife. After hearing that he had no wife or children, he intentionally betrothed this woman to him. Who would have thought that not long after we were married, he would leave with all the money and possessions in his family. My father was so angry that he fell into bed and left within a few days. "My mother chased me out of the house. She never would have thought that this heartless thing would actually become a monk!"

"You're slandering me." Wu Chen's face turned purple. "I've already been away from home for more than twenty years. How could I be related to you?"

"Haha, you have been a prostitute for over 20 years? Who outside would not know that you have lived in seclusion for over twenty years. Who knows where you have lived in seclusion? As long as you have a good reputation, don't you usually do whatever you want? "

Lady Wang was so angry that her face turned pale. She covered her chest, unable to utter a word, "Ding Haoyun, you already have a wife and children, but you actually married someone else?" A man could have three wives and four concubines, but he could only have one principal wife. In the future, no matter how many concubines he entered, they would all be concubines.

Madame Li turned her head to look at Lady Wang and directly asked, "This sister, you also want to settle scores with this fake monk?"

Lady Wang gritted her teeth and nodded. "Little sister, I didn't expect that you would be deceived by this unscrupulous bastard."

Madame Li immediately stood up and grabbed Wu Chen's monastic robe. She raised her palm to slap him in the face. Seeing her actions, Lady Wang also became angry from the bottom of her heart. She got up from the ground and went to help Lady Li.

"Let go of me, you two!" Let go of me! Seeing Wu Chen's surprised look, Lady Li made a 'shua' sound on his face as he scratched his face three times. His kasaya was messed up and his buddhist beads were torn off. Wu Chen fell to the ground while Lady Wang and Lady Li continuously used their feet to kick him.

"Pui!" "I was blind to fancy you, a beast with a human's face, and you even have a high status as a monk. Even a monk like you, who can't even control his own lower body, wouldn't be afraid of the lightning strike you down when you enter the temple?" Lady Li clutched her waist as she spat on Wu Chen's face.

"I've been blind for a while, I can't be blind for the rest of my life. Today, in front of the emperor and all the other lords, you write me a piece of paper. I brought my son to live a good life, but before that, I was bitten by a dog."

Everyone was shocked by this scene. When had they ever seen such a spicy woman?

After pausing for a long while, only then did someone harshly shout, "How dare you, how can you be so disrespectful in front of the emperor?"

"Stop right now!"

Lady Wang and Lady Li held their hands and pulled their sons along as they knelt on the ground. They kowtowed to Baili Qing Cang and said, "Your majesty, please uphold justice for this humble woman."

Upon seeing the scratches on Wu Chen's face and neck, Baili Qingfeng turned his head away, "How unbecoming!"

Bu Yun smirked, "Your Majesty, although Madame Li and Lady Wang's actions are a little inappropriate, it's only because of anger. He could do whatever he wanted, but this Wu Chen …. "On Prince De's wedding day, the imperial concubine who framed Duke Yi said that she wanted to take away the pregnant Ning Hua. She's simply stepping on the royal family's face!"

Baili Qingfeng's face turned ashen, "The governor of the Capital's Residence. He arrested Wu Chen and sent him to the Celestial Prison to frame the Royal Princess. His crimes are unforgivable. After you've properly dealt with the matters between Lady Wang and Lady Li, write them down. "

"Yes."

The expression in Shen Ninghua's eyes flickered slightly. Royal father did not immediately dispose of Wu Chen, probably leaving some resentment in his heart. After all, the thunderbolt earlier was not a child's play.

At this moment, Wu Chen ignored the pain in his body and immediately got to his knees. "Your majesty, this humble monk is innocent. There must have been someone who framed this humble monk. Duke Yi and Princess Zhao Hua, you can't just ignore the dangers of this world just because of your selfish desires."

Bu Yun was filled with hatred as he coldly scolded, "Grandmaster Chen, you're still trying to bite me. Others might respectfully call you Grandmaster, but you should be an example to monks of the world. Who would have known that you wouldn't even know how to conduct yourself!? "You're still thinking about deceiving the masses at a time like this? Did you really think the emperor was going to deceive everyone!"

"Your majesty, please trust this poor monk. Otherwise, you will definitely regret it."

Baili Junyi stepped forward. "Imperial Father, it's not difficult for Madame Li and Madame Wang to investigate the matter. Besides, they have two children by their side. The easiest way is to bind them together by blood."

Wu Chen's righteous shout was abruptly cut off as if someone had grabbed him by the neck. He just stood there in a daze, his face ashen.

Some of the officials immediately began to laugh. They were all too guilty about this. They thought Wu Chen was an esteemed monk, but who knew he was a monk.

Baili Qingfeng frowned and shouted, "Drag him away!"

The Prefecture Overseer did not dare to hesitate and immediately ordered his guards to drag Wu Chen away.

Baili Qingfeng looked at the silent Baili Jinchuan, "Jinchuan, your good days have been disturbed. You can rest for three days before you return to court."

"Yes, thank you royal father for your understanding." Baili JinChuan respectfully saluted. The corner of his eyes glanced at Shen Ninghua, who was standing on the spot with an indifferent expression. The color in her eyes unknowingly deepened. After a long while, he finally forced his gaze away from her.

Right after he was captured, Zhao Hui Ying received the news. The Jade Bone Fan he was holding in his hand suddenly dropped to the ground, and with a crack, it split into two: "Mei Xue, you said Wu Chen was captured?"

"Yes, the Emperor has already locked him up in the Sky Prison."

Zhao Hui Ying suddenly slapped the table, and the exquisite armor immediately split into two: "Wu Chen, Wu Chen! He actually had a wife, didn't he know what he had done? He had actually left his wife and children to come knocking on his door. He ruined my plans! "

"Please calm your anger, Empress."

Zhao Hui Ying's chest violently heaved up and down, and he suddenly swept the items on the table to the ground: "Today, my time in the sky, my land, my people and everything else have all been taken, but I still failed. Shen Ninghua, could it be that she really received the blessing of heaven and was able to escape from me time and time again?"

"Esteemed Empress, although Wu Chen has been captured, the Emperor didn't immediately punish him. I presume that he isn't without grudges in his heart, and there is still room for retaliation in this matter."

Zhao Hui Ying took a deep breath and slowly calmed down, "The chess piece, Wu Chen, can no longer be used. Let the people from the Jade Cloud Pavilion and the Green Cloud Pavilion take action, since the Emperor has a seed of doubt in his heart, we should seize the opportunity to let the seed take root and sprout. In these two days, both the outside and the inside of the Imperial Court have been stirred up.

"Yes." As long as he was not at peace, he could push this matter towards Shen Ninghua's fate. At that time, the Emperor would definitely feel a huge rift in his heart.

Bu Yunqing was carefully examining the items dug out from the willow tree's ashes. He frowned slightly and said, "Send these items to Duke Yi's Mansion."

Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua sat at the head of the table, watching as the craftsmen rummaged through the items delivered from the palace.

"Reporting to Duke Yi and Princess Yi, these are all fragments of iron. It's summer now, and thunderstorms are frequent, so the trees of the Sesame Spring Hall are tall. If you insert some flammable medicinal powder into the trees, it'll definitely be able to draw down the lightning."

"Alright, This King knows. You can go down and receive your rewards." After the blacksmith left, Baili Junyi sneered. "The empress sure is confident. She didn't even bother to clean her butt."

Shen Ninghua looked at the jet-black fragments on the floor and said, "It's hard to say what other abilities Wu Chen has, but his observation skills sure are accurate."

"Mhm. There's a message from the palace. Imperial Father had the imperial overseer inspect the constellation these few days. I'm guessing that there's still some doubt in his heart."

"That is unavoidable. People are also talking about it."

Baili Junyi took her hand in his and held it carefully. "Rumors outside are easy to deal with. The most important thing is Father's opinion."

Shen Ninghua raised her head to look at him. When she saw the smile on his lips, her eyes turned slightly cold. "You have an idea?"

"Could it be that my wife and husband have different thoughts?"

Shen Ninghua retracted her hand and looked at him with a hint of provocation, "Who said it would be the same?"

Baili Junyi took a pen and paper. "How about writing it down and see if your wife and your husband share the same thoughts?"

The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Then, they each took a pen and quickly wrote a word on a piece of paper. Then, they covered it up with their hands in unison.

Shen Ninghua said, "Show me first."

"Hmm? "Why?"

"Because the baby wants to see it first." Shen Ninghua was righteous and unreasonable.

"Alright then," she responded with a smile. "I'll show the baby first." After he finished speaking, he looked at Shen Ninghua's stomach with a mischievous gaze. "Right now, I don't dare to bully you and your son."

Glancing at the words he wrote, Shen Ninghua smiled and took his hand away as well.

On the paper, there was only one word written: Thunder!

A profound light flashed in Baili Junyi's eyes. "This matter started because of the thunderstorm, so let's end it with the thunderstorm." In the current weather, it's very normal to be struck by lightning from time to time. If we split the willow tree in the Sesame Spring Hall today, then maybe we will split the pine and cypress in the Ning Kun Palace tomorrow. "

Shen Ninghua nodded his head, "En, I'm sure the Empress will have a very good look at that time." "Right, there's also that Wu Chen."

"I'll deal with Wu Chen's matter. You don't need to worry about him. Monk has a wife and children. This matter is enough for the people to discuss for a long time."

"Yes, Lady Wang, Lady Li, and the sons of the two make people look after you more. After all, you are an innocent person."

"Don't worry, I've already given the orders." They had no leeway towards their enemies, but they did not kill innocents.
