Chapter 273: Capture this demon
Concubine Wang was the first to break down: "Bai Wei, isn't this mirror mine?"
She spent a lot of money to make this mirror. It is big and bright. She loves it very much. Now Bai Wei has used some kind of magic on it. Isn't this bad luck?
Bai Wei was a little surprised and looked at Lin Qing.
Lin Qing said calmly: "Lin Qing is following the orders of the Emperor to fully cooperate with General Bai in finding the items he needs. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Concubine Wang gritted her teeth and was about to make trouble, but Bai Wei immediately said, "What are you talking about, Commander Lin? You are following the orders of the Emperor. How could the Concubine disobey the Emperor's orders?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Concubine Wang vaguely.
Although, she didn't know that the only bronze mirror in the entire palace that met her requirements would be in Concubine Wang's bedroom.
But... seeing Concubine Wang was angry, her mood suddenly became cheerful.
Not only did Lin Qing diligently help her find things, he also indirectly helped her vent her anger, so of course she had to protect him.
Not only Bai Wei looked at her, but even Ouyang Ming looked over there.
The words of punishment from Concubine Wang were abruptly blocked in her throat. She suppressed her anger and even had a suppressed smile on her lips: "Yes, since it is the Emperor's order, I will not blame you."
Lin Qing knelt on the ground: "Thank you, Imperial Concubine."
Concubine Wang's face turned red as she suppressed her anger, but she still gritted her teeth and said, "Stand up."
Lin Qing stood up.
Ouyang Ming looked at the mirror beside Bai Wei and said calmly, "Are you sure you have turned this mirror into a magic mirror?"
Bai Wei said calmly and confidently: "Of course. In order to prevent Taoist Qinglian from accusing me of using magic, I asked the Imperial Guards who followed me to participate in the entire process of modifying the mirror."
Xiao Minglou patted his chest and said, "Your Majesty, I saw it too."
Ouyang Ming said calmly: "Major General Minglou's testimony does not count."
When Xiao Minglou heard this, he immediately became furious. Just as he was about to step forward to argue, Ouyang Ming asked again, "Lin Qing, were you all there watching?"
Lin Qing stepped forward and replied, "I and my subordinates have indeed been watching from the side and have never left. We are sure that General Bai did not use any strange spells. She only used some...ordinary tools in life."
After finishing speaking, Ouyang Ming said calmly: "Okay. Anyone here, is there anyone willing to come forward and give it a try?"
Compared to the eagerness of everyone to try out the magic mirror brought by Taoist Qinglian, no one was interested in trying out the mirror brought by Bai Wei. Ouyang Yi was the first to walk up and stand in front of the bronze mirror.
His face is clearly visible in the bronze mirror.
Feng Lin saw this and said: "This bronze mirror is clearer and more beautiful than the previous mirror. This prince also wants to take a look."
After saying that, he stood beside Ouyang Yi.
Ouyang Yi felt him approaching and turned away.
After that it was Xiao Mingyu and Xiao Mingcheng, and then some other people came forward to take pictures.
Ouyang Ming finally stood in front of the mirror and looked at it: "Isn't this mirror the same as the one in the imperial concubine's bedroom? There is no difference. Lin Qing, did Bai Wei really modify this mirror?"
Lin Qing clasped his hands together: "It is indeed true."
Bai Wei: "Your Majesty, the greatest benefit of this mirror after its transformation is that the person who transformed it can identify whoever is a demon if he wants. First of all, as long as True Man Qinglian stands over here, I can guarantee that I can find her in the shape of a demon!"
Ouyang Ming took the opportunity to look at Master Qinglian.
True Man Qinglian no longer had the initial calmness, but he still held on: "Monster, what on earth are you doing? Why should I cooperate with you, a monster? Have you bewitched all the imperial guards to frame me?"
Ouyang Ming frowned slightly.
Bai Wei did everything openly and honestly, and she was accompanied by so many imperial guards, but Qinglian Zhenren was dragging his feet and refused to cooperate. Now, he trusted Bai Wei even more.
Bai Wei raised her eyebrows: "This general knew you would say that!"
The moment she finished speaking, she turned the mirror vigorously, allowing it to reflect her outline. The next second, the mirror began to weep blood, and then a big turtle appeared on the bronze mirror.
Everyone looked at this scene, unable to recover for a long time: "This scene is exactly the same as the feeling just now when the magic mirror revealed that General Bai was a fox demon."
"Could it be that General Bai is also a cultivator and can make a magic mirror?"
"Are you stupid? How is it possible? Didn't the commander of the Royal Guards just say that the mirror was modified? That's human power, not witchcraft or magic."
"But what does General Bai mean by this?"
"What does this mean? It probably means that if True Man Qing Lian said she was a fox demon, then True Man Qing Lian is a turtle demon."
"Haha, General Bai is quite humorous. I can't help it, hahahaha..."
"..."
Qinglian Zhenren looked at this scene, angry and panicked: "Fox demon, you used magic to transform yourself!"
Bai Wei raised her eyebrows: "I am not a demon, how can I use magic? Commander Lin Qing just watched me complete it. General Lin Qing, please explain it to the emperor."
Lin Qing said calmly: "Your Majesty, General Bai first asked us to find a mirror with more space on it, preferably with hollows. Then we sealed the holes with lard and filled them with chicken blood. After that, one person secretly heated the bronze mirror with a hand warmer on the side. As the temperature rose, the lard melted and the chicken blood inside flowed out.
She also used a brush to dip honey on the mirror and drew a turtle on it. The chicken blood left a mark after passing through the turtle she drew, forming the pattern of the turtle. This is what Qinglian Zhenren said before, that the prototype of the monster was revealed! "
Bai Wei said calmly, "Although I was angry just now and poured some wine on the so-called magic mirror of Qinglian Zhenren, Your Majesty can go and check the so-called magic mirror that Qinglian Zhenren just brought out. There are still traces of lard on it, and traces of honey where the fox demon pattern is."
Ouyang Ming probably understood what was going on and went forward to check.
Sure enough, everything was consistent with what Bai Wei said.
That is to say, True Man Qinglian deliberately set up such a situation in order to deliberately identify Bai Wei as a fox demon, and even burned a person to death in front of everyone.
So, the pill she gave herself...
"How dare you, a wicked demon, to deceive people in the East Qin Palace and frame the ministers of East Qin. What are your intentions?"
True Man Qinglian looked at Ouyang Ming coldly without saying a word.
Ouyang Ming was filled with anger.
Originally, he thought he had found a hermit who could help him prolong his life and bring prosperity to Dongqin, but he didn't expect that he was actually a liar.
And he also took the elixir of this liar. Although he asked the imperial physician to check it and was told that most of the ingredients were tonic medicines and were non-toxic and should not harm his body, he now could not help but worry whether there would be other adverse effects.
"Come here, arrest this evil Taoist priest and wait for his punishment!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the Royal Guards headed towards True Man Qinglian.
Qinglian stood in the middle, watching the royal guards gradually approaching her, without moving.
Just when everyone thought that True Man Qing Lian was going to surrender, she suddenly moved. Her ferocious face was exposed. She pulled out a dagger from the side of her thigh and stabbed towards Bai Wei, shouting: "Evildoer, you are a disaster to the country, you deserve to die!"
