As Luo Lingwei's words came out, Daoist Master Yuan Zhen's face began to heat up. At the same time, Zen Master Wu Xin's expression also turned ugly. In this area of several dozen miles, no one knew that Yuan Zhen was the disciple of Zen Master Wu Xin, and that he was the true successor. Now, with a few casual words from the messenger, not only did the monk return to his original form, but he also dragged Zen Master Yuan Xin and the entire Enlightenment Heart Temple down with him.

”Amitabha, esteemed wangfei, what we discussed today was our temple's Shamei's bizarre death. May esteemed wangfei uphold justice for our temple's futile death!”

At this time, Zen Master Wu Xin stood up appropriately and said this sentence.

Upon hearing this, Luo Lingwei knew that this monk was about to change the topic. She shook her head and said, ”I have my own way to adjudicate this case. Could it be that if I don't investigate this matter thoroughly, as long as I burn incense and pray for blessings, the Buddha will tell me who committed the murder?”

Everyone in the county knew that this Zen Master Wu Xin was a renowned monk. Now that he was ridiculed by Luo Lingwei in such a manner and was so disrespectful to the buddhist faith, even if she was the imperial concubine, everyone still somewhat detested her.

”Amitabha, this is a sin. Esteemed wangfei ridiculing me as a Buddha is truly a sin.” At this moment, when Zen Master Wu Xin said this sentence, he seemed to be hinting at something. When everyone heard this, he couldn't help but lead them away.

”What is it? So what if I taunt that elusive Buddha? Could it be that the clay statue will stand up and hit me? Let alone having no Divine Buddha, even if there really was a Divine Buddha, he would still be a b * stard. Why else would so many people suffer? ” Luo Lingwei's words hit the nail on the head. Zen Master Wu Xin was stunned and didn't know what to say. However, there were many commoners who started to agree with Luo Lingwei's point of view.

”Empress, I must trouble you to continue the trial.” In order to help out her old friend, the county magistrate at the side stood up and reminded Luo Lingwei to bring the case to trial as soon as possible.

Luo Lingwei glanced at him, but did not say anything. She did not waste any more words with Zen Master Xian Xin, but instead directly slapped the wooden log on the table and said to the monk: ”Monk, please call for the actions of the Enlightenment Will Temple all these years. If you actually call them back, then I'll let you have a taste of my new punishment!”

Upon hearing this, the monk was stunned, he did not expect Luo Lingwei to interrogate him like this. Logically speaking, if someone on the side had told her to skip the round and investigate the death of Shamei, they would have already agreed. But who was Luo Lingwei? She was not afraid of anyone's pressure. Moreover, in this Great Xuan Empire, no one dared to even touch a single hair on her head!

”Amitabha …” Before Wu Xin finished reciting his Buddhist prayer, he was stopped by Luo Lingwei.

”You shut up. If you dare to disturb the court again, I'll send you to jail as well!” Luo Lingwei pointed at Zen Master Wu Xin and shouted.

Zen Master Wu Xin was somewhat shocked. He had never seen a person like Luo Lingwei who did not follow the rules and was unreasonable, so he choked on those words.

Zen Master Wu Xin looked at Yuan Zhen and thought for a moment. He thought that if he continued to stay, he would have to make a fool of himself. Thus, he flung his sleeves and left without looking back.

Seeing that his master had given up on him, his mind went blank and he didn't know what to say.

”True Yuan monk, I advise you to confess soon, otherwise, it will be too late if you regret it later!” Luo Lingwei looked at Monk Yuan Zhen and said.

Luo Lingwei saw that Monk Yuan Zhen was still silent, so she became angry and said: ”Someone come! ”A great punishment!”

As soon as her voice fell, she saw Xiaoqing walk up with ten sharp bamboo sticks in her hand, followed by Zhang Long and Zhao Hu. Carrying a wooden table, Xiaoqing waved her hand and the two of them placed the table on top of the court.

”Empress, everything is ready.” Little Qing cupped her hands towards Luo Lingwei.
