Early the next morning, Bigan suddenly came to Shouxian Palace to ask the Son of Heaven to discuss urgent matters.

Because of the hangover, the Son of Heaven felt tired, but he couldn't resist this Uncle Wang, who was the prime minister, and finally reluctantly came to the Nine Halls.

When the official of the Ministry of Rites saw the Son of Heaven, he hurriedly played the incident: "The official of the Huanghua Post House came to report that after the return of the son of Xibohou, Bo Yi Kao, for some reason, got drunk in the post house, and even became animalistic, and forcibly raped a beautiful woman who was originally paid tribute to His Majesty......"

When the ministers heard the news, they were in an uproar. Yesterday, although only one important minister was present at the national teacher's defeat of Boyi with his natural skills, it had already spread. After failing to fight the piano, this person is known as virtuous and filial, but he did such an ugly thing by getting drunk!

This matter can be said to be big or small, Bo Yi Kao is the son of Xi Bohou, in this era, even if you rape a beautiful woman, it is not a big deal. The problem is that this beautiful woman who was abused by Bo Yi Kao was originally a tribute to the Son of Heaven. Although the Son of Heaven returned all those tributes and ordered Bo Yi to leave the court and return to Xiqi within a limited date, those beauties were nominally dedicated tributes to the Son of Heaven after all, and it would be reasonable for the Son of Heaven to punish him for a felony of bullying.

The Son of Heaven really showed an angry face: "The matter of Ji Chang's assassination is unknown, and his son Bo Yi Kao actually did such an ugly thing! Those beauties should have been the things of the widow's harem, if it weren't for you...... Hmph, although it has been returned, it is not allowed to be desecrated, come on! Immediately take down Bo Yi Kao and punish him for the crime of bullying the king!"

Fang heard that Tianzi was extremely dissatisfied with his proposal to return the beauty yesterday, and there was a hint of anger, so he didn't dare to make a sound at the moment, holding his teeth and bowing his head silently. Some courtiers who were on the right side of Fang on weekdays couldn't help but gloat when they saw this.

The first minister said: "Your Majesty, Bo Yi Kao is known for his virtuous name and filial piety, and this time he came to the court to sing in order to pay tribute to atone for Ji Chang's sins. Why would they rashly do such a thing? Acting in this way will not only fail to make Xibohou Ji prosperous. And he also fell into it, which is really suspicious, and I hope that His Majesty will see it. ”

Among the courtiers, there were also many jealous and hateful people, and Mei Bo immediately played: "Although Boyi is famous, he was defeated by the national teacher with the piano in the Xianqing Hall yesterday. His Majesty and his ministers all witnessed with their own eyes, and it was not impossible for this Boyi to be depressed and commit bestiality when he was drunk. Besides, the beautiful woman was a tribute. To be blasphemed today is really a criminal who deceives the king, and it must not be tolerated!"

The Son of Heaven pondered for a while and asked, "Where are Bo Yi Kao and the victim woman now?" ”

Fang replied in a trembling voice: "Back to Your Majesty, the post house official came to report, then...... The woman ** seemed to be humiliated. He hanged himself in a post house this morning......"

The Son of Heaven was furious: "What a Bo Yi test, he even forced that woman to death! Where is the criminal department?

Jiang Wenhuan, who temporarily took over the affairs of the Criminal Department, came out and said: "Your Majesty, Bo Yi Kao has been taken into custody by the Criminal Department, but this person not only refuses to admit his guilt. He also swore an oath, saying that this matter was not what he said, and someone must have framed him. ”

Doctor Yang Ren asked Jiang Wenhuan: "May I ask General Jiang, is there any evidence in this matter?"

Jiang Wenhuan shook his head and said, "I went to the post house to check in person, and there was no one else present at that time. There is only one broken piano and one white-faced ape. Bo Yi was full of alcohol, and the woman was dead. The clothes are disheveled, and there are a lot of blood stains on the bottom, and there are obvious rope marks on the neck. At that time, when the officials of the post house arrived, they only saw Bo Yi Kao holding the woman, but did not see the process of her murder, and Bo Yi Kao insisted that he was wronged, so the criminal department could not convict him, and he specially asked His Majesty to adjudicate it. ”

Yang Ren's face was angry, and he said: "Your Majesty, according to the ministers, this matter is simple and clear, it must be that Bo Yi took the test to kill people and destroy his mouth, and even died without proof! This person looks virtuous and filial on the outside, but in fact he is vicious and insidious, and he will confess only when he is serving in front of the criminal department. ”

Before the Son of Heaven could speak, Fei Zhong hurriedly came out and said: "Xibo Hou Jichang has not yet been convicted, his son is still a prince, how can he be tortured? Since the woman is dead and there is no evidence, then this matter may also be framed by others." ”

Yang Ren said angrily: "The Son of Heaven has ordered Bo Yi to leave Chaoge, who else will frame him?

All the ministers knew that Fei Zhong was greedy for money, and when they saw him speaking for Bo Yi Kao like this, he must have been bribed by Bo Yi Kao beforehand. Fei Zhong saw that Yang Ren was splashing him with dirty water in front of the Son of Heaven, and now was the time to rectify the rule of officials, how could he admit it?

Seeing that the Son of Heaven was impatient, Bigan came out and said: "The two doctors, when the court quarrels, what kind of system will it become! It is better to bring all the physical evidence of the Na Bo Yi examination and the present to the temple, and the Son of Heaven will judge it." ”

The Son of Heaven nodded, and allowed the performance of the bigan, so Bo Yi Kao, along with the female corpse, the broken qin, and the ape, were all taken to the nine halls, and the female corpse was parked far away at the door of the main hall for fear of the holy drive.

When Bo Yi Kao saw the face of the Son of Heaven, he hurriedly bowed down and shouted "wronged".

The Son of Heaven glanced at the female corpse placed at the door of the main hall, showed regret on his face, and said angrily: "What a bold Bo Yi Kao! You boast that you are unparalleled in the piano, but yesterday you were defeated at the hands of the national teacher, and the widow did not cure you of the crime of deceiving the king, but let you go back to Xiqi, but you did such a thing!"

Bo Yi Kao hurriedly explained, saying that he was defeated by the national teacher in the piano yesterday, although he was depressed, he was convinced, and after returning to the post house, he did drink a few cups, but even if he fell asleep, there was absolutely no violence. When he got up in the morning, he found that the woman was hanging herself on the beam of her room in disheveled clothes, and she couldn't be rescued in a hurry, and when he hurriedly found a table and chair to save her from the beam, it was too late, and the woman was already dead. The officials of the post house, who were alarmed by this movement, rushed in, and there was this misunderstanding.

Yang Ren came out of the column and shouted: "Bo Yi Kao! You are simply nonsense, could it be that we are all childish! The evidence of this matter is conclusive, it is clear that you were drunk and violent, and after you sober up, you were afraid that this matter would be exposed, so you killed people and killed people, if it were not for the fact that it was broken by the officials of the post house, I am afraid that it would not be known! Your Majesty, this person is loyal and virtuous on the outside, but he is extremely wicked on the inside, and his behavior is so bad that the real crime is unforgivable, and he should be beheaded to show the public to make an example to the world. ”

Fei Zhong hurriedly came out. It is said that there are still doubts in this case, and the woman is dead. There is no evidence left to convict him. Bo Yi Kao glanced at Fei Zhong gratefully, and secretly said that the generous gift was not in vain. But this time, the hundred officials were even more suspicious of Bo Yi Kao, Fei Zhong was a snob, for no reason. Why is he so biased in favor of Bo Yi Kao?

Bo Yi Kao followed Fei Zhong's words and took the opportunity to say: "The subordinate forgives his father's sins, and he has come thousands of miles away, how can he commit such a crime? Isn't this a self-defeating event? This matter must have been devised by someone, and His Majesty was asked to make the decision for his subordinates. ”

Yaxiang Jiang Ziya also raised his own question: "This white-faced ape was originally locked in a cage, how could it appear at the scene of the murder?"

This is indeed a big suspicion, as soon as this statement came out, everyone turned their attention to the white ape, the white ape seemed to be very timid, seeing that everyone was looking at it, they couldn't help but show a look of fear.

Fei Zhong said: "Bo Yi Kao has made a statement. The white ape has practiced for thousands of years and can sing and dance. It's a pity that I can't speak, otherwise I would have been able to tell the truth of the matter. Even if the evidence is insufficient, it should not be convicted rashly. ”

Bo Yi Kao hurriedly said yes. Bigan said: "Since this white ape has been practicing for many years, it must be very spiritual, Your Majesty is the supreme in the world, caused by virtue, and all sides are served." Why don't you give it a try......"

The Son of Heaven listened to Bigan's advice. Suddenly became interested, and walked down the Danqi in person. came to the white ape and asked: "White ape, since you are a thousand-year-old spiritual creature, you must understand the language of people, and if you ask you, do you know what happened last night?"

The white ape glanced at Bo Yi Kao in fear, nodded, and shook his head again.

The ministers were amazed when they saw that the white ape was acting like this. Seeing that it was so cowardly, the Son of Heaven said, "As long as you help the widow find out the truth about what happened last night, the widow can pardon your free body and return to the mountains and forests." ”

The white ape really understood people's words, and he knelt down and bowed again and again, and when Bo Yi saw this, hope was also ignited in his heart.

I saw the white ape squeaking, pointing for a while, as if he wanted to express something, but unfortunately no one could speak, although everyone knew that it was explaining the truth, but they were confused.

Seeing that everyone didn't understand, this white ape was very anxious, scratching his head and scratching his cheeks, after all, it was a thousand-year-old spiritual creature, with abnormal intelligence, and it was so clever that it expressed its words in the form of song and dance.

The white ape first looked very annoyed, sang a heavy tone, made a forceful movement to open the door, pulled something out of the air, and then made the appearance of stroking the piano while pouring it into his mouth, as if he was desperately drinking, and the thing he pulled out was forced to sing and dance to the sound of the piano. Even if the white ape didn't point at him later, everyone understood who was the one who was opened and pulled out, Bo Yi Kao only felt cold all over, and he couldn't believe his eyes.

After the white ape pretended to caress for a while, it revealed a fierce light, and his tone suddenly turned higher, and he smashed the "qin" in his hand into the ground.

Soon, it was drunk, hazy, and unsteady in its footsteps, pulling someone all the way, and it played the role of someone who was being pulled struggling, and made a terrible sound.

Immediately afterwards, the white ape showed everyone present what the crime of "rape" was, with a crying and vivid singing voice and vivid body language. Even worse was still to come, after this beastly walk, the white ape opened his sleepy eyes, as if startled, and then found a rope, gritted his teeth and made a tightening appearance, and then made a hanging shape in the air.

This series of dances and singing interprets a "wonderful" process of drunkenness and rape, followed by murder and silence, and Bo Yikao was stunned. He never expected that this white-faced ape, who had been docile and slave for many years, would actually buckle such a big basin on his head.

Seeing the contempt, anger, and sudden gaze of the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials on him, Bo Yikao knew the plan, and couldn't justify it for a while, and under the mixture of anger, he couldn't support it anymore, spurted out a mouthful of blood, and suddenly fainted.

At this point, the truth has been revealed, and no one raises any more doubts. The fact is that Bo Yi Kao was very drunk in the post house yesterday, pulled the white ape out, and forced him to sing and dance to help the piano, but remembering the failure of the piano fight, he jumped like thunder, smashed the piano, and dragged the beautiful woman out of the room not far from the next door, and raped him with the intention of drinking. When he woke up on the second day, he found that a big mistake had been made, and in order to kill people, he strangled the poor woman to death, pretending to hang herself, so that there was no proof of death. Unexpectedly, the sky net was restored, and I forgot about the only witness, the white ape. It just so happens that this white ape can sing and dance well, showing the whole process vividly.

This time, even Fei Zhong, who "had the heart" to help Bo Yi Kao, didn't dare to speak anymore, this fat man was extremely quick in thinking, and immediately changed his position, and in turn scolded Bo Yi Kao for his human face and beast heart, lost Xi Bohou's face, and asked the Son of Heaven to punish him severely, which made the ministers despise him for a while.

This truth also made the Son of Heaven angry with thunder, and in the name of Bo Yikao's deception of the king, he wanted to order the punishment of cannon burning. At this time, the prime minister came out to intercede, saying that although Bo Yi Kao had committed a serious crime, the Son of Heaven had returned the tribute as a beautiful woman and had ordered her to leave, so the most serious "crime of bullying the king" should be reduced as appropriate. Considering the merits and good name of Xibohou Jichang in the past, he hereby requested that Bo Yi be left to take his life and be punished separately.

The Son of Heaven seemed to deplore the death of that beautiful woman, and resented Bo Yikao's repeated sophistry and hypocrisy before, and insisted on refusing to forgive, but he couldn't resist the request of Bigan and the officials, hesitated for a long time, and finally agreed. At Bigan's suggestion, the Son of Heaven decreed that the remaining nine beauties and the two treasures should be returned to the harem and the treasury as retribution, and at the same time, the meritorious white ape would be released into the mountains and forests, and no one should be hunted and killed. The death penalty for Bo Yi Kao was exempted, and the specific punishment will be discussed later, and he will be temporarily imprisoned in the custody of the criminal department.

As a result, the warriors of the main hall dragged the unconscious Boyi examination down, and after the Son of Heaven solved the matter, he was not interested, and reluctantly insisted on dealing with a few current priorities, and announced the dissolution of the dynasty.

After dispersing, Zhang Zixing went straight to the Star Picking Tower, and before he could go upstairs, he finally couldn't help laughing.

The white-faced ape's performance was really wonderful! The white ape first pretended to be unable to speak, eager to express himself, and his form was realistic, setting up suspense, and everyone could see that he knew the "truth" but could not confess it.

Next, the white ape used vivid body language and a singing voice with a variety of tones to vividly interpret the unwarranted plot of drunkenness, violence, and murder in a short period of time. Although there is only one person, he can use a variety of expressions and tones to perfectly complete the transformation of each character, and the effect is N times better than that described in pure language, which is convincing.

The whole script from creation, rehearsal, to actual performance, but only three days, can achieve such an effect, it is indeed rare. This kind of acting skills even surpasses Yuan Hong, who pretended to be Jiang Huan at the beginning, and it is impossible to do it without many years of "acting career". Of course, the poor woman that Bo Yi Kao saw in the morning was not the original body, but Yuan Hong, otherwise how could she willingly hang herself and "die"?

Zhang Zixing laughed for a while, walked upstairs, pointed to Yuan Hong and the white ape waiting in front, and praised sincerely: "The two monkeys are both at the actor level!"
