Hearing the sudden arrival of Grand Scholar Huo Shi outside, Kublai's heart sank. He thought to himself, "I'm afraid this is not a good time to come."

While Kubler was thinking, Huo Shi had already arrived at the main hall.

Although he hated this person, Huo Shi was, after all, the grand teacher of Mongolia, so normal etiquette still needed to be taught.

Kublai hurriedly stood up to welcome them, saying, "Grand Imperial Adviser has come to visit today's case, it is our honor."

After the formalities were over, the Imperial Protector was ordered to bring over a chair for Huo Zhi to sit down. He then asked, "What matter has the Imperial Advisor come here to instruct this king?"

"This Imperial Advisor knows that this case is complicated and confusing, so I came to lend you a hand." The Imperial Advisor Huo Zhi said to Kublai.

Upon hearing Huo Zhi's words, Kublai thought to himself, "Who are you? This King still doesn't know. Who knows, maybe you were the one who secretly manipulated this matter, and even said something to help me. What a joke."

However, on the surface, Kublai still said politely, "That's great. With the help of the Imperial Advisor, this case will soon be brought to light."

"We were arguing just now, and it was difficult for us to come to a conclusion with just the words of the steward. But at this very moment when things were difficult, you, the Imperial Advisor, arrived. This is truly our timely arrival." Prime Minister Zuo observed and praised the Imperial Advisor Huo Ziche.

Huo Zhi smiled, "Master Cha He is too polite. We are all subjects of the eldest concubine in this matter. We should do our best."

Then he continued, "The assassin who tried to assassinate the Grand Concubine was severely injured by the Imperial Advisor. Everyone knew that, but fortunately, after the Imperial Physician and Imperial Advisor's combined efforts, the man's injuries had recovered by about forty to fifty percent. After being interrogated by the Imperial Advisor, the person who usually contacted him was precisely the butler Sticky Pillar. Although the assassin said so, in order to ensure that Brother Meng and Jiang Hao were not falsely accused, the Imperial Advisor set a plan. Let's see if the assassin's words are true or false. "

"What is the Imperial Advisor's plan?" Kublai asked.

Huo Zhi replied, "Since the Assassin claimed to have interacted with Sticky Pillar Housekeeper many times, then this Assassin must have known about Sticky Pillar, so we should get a few more people dressed up to look like Sticky Pillar Housekeepers. If this Assassin is able to find the real Sticky Pillar Housekeeper, then it would mean that the Assassin really knows Sticky Pillar Housekeeper, so naturally what he said is believable."

Although the people who were feeling sorry for Meng Ge and Pudu Khan did not understand the purpose of Huo Shi's actions, they were very clear on the character of this Huo Zhi. It was absolutely impossible for this person to help Mongolia and Kublai.

However, the idea that Huo Shu came up with was also flawless. It was really difficult to deal with.

However, Kublai was the presiding judge of this case. Huo Shi's argument was reasonable, and as the chief judge of Mongolia, he could not refuse. Thus, he immediately ordered his men to do these things according to the request of the Imperial Advisor, Huo Zhi.

After Huo Shou was done, he let his trusted aide bring the Assassin up to let him know which one of the people in the hall was the real pillar of support.

In the main hall, the assassin looked up. After his severe injuries, the assassin looked haggard and his gait was frivolous, as if he would fall to the ground if he touched him.

The assassin looked at the few people before him seriously, before bowing towards Kublai. He said, "Reporting to my lord, this little one has already recognized you."

"Then hurry up and point it out." Kublai ordered.

The assassin pointed his right index finger at the real sticky pillar. "That's him."

Seeing that this assassin actually recognized the real pillar, those who did not know the inside story were truly shocked. They thought to themselves: This time, Brother Meng and Kublai are really done for.

Prime Minister Zuo, Cha He, hastily jumped out and said, "Prince Kublai, the words spoken by Sticky Pillar are proof."

At this point, Kublai had nothing to say. Let the guards tie up Mongol and the sweat.

However, before Kublai Lie could give the order, Xin Xiuxuan suddenly stood up and said, "Hold on, I have something to say."

"It's already decided. Does your husband still want to stop us?" Prime Minister Zuo asked.

"Lord Cha He, please do not charge anyone with a crime. After all, Mr. Xin is a guest of our Mongolia."

"Heh heh, everyone knows that you, the daughter of Prince Kublai, and Mr. Xin have an extraordinary relationship. Don't openly protect him in the court." The Prime Minister shouted.

Ku Bi Lie slapped the table angrily and said, "Lord Cha He, this case has been decided by the grand concubine and her orders have also invited Mister Xin and the other martial artists to participate. Now, Mister Xin has something to say, shouldn't I let Teacher speak?"

"Sir Cha He, please let Mister Xin speak." Great Master Huo Zhi said confidently.

Xin Youxuan said, "Ladies and gentlemen, the witnesses for the crimes of Brother Meng and Badu Khan are the Viscous Pillar and the Assassin standing here."

"Mister Xin is right." Huo Zhi said.

Xin Youxuan asked, "But this pillar is the pillar. Is the assassin the assassin?"

"What does Mr. Xin mean by this?" Everyone asked curiously.

Xin Youxuan walked in front of the assassin and the pillar. Suddenly, she reached out and grabbed their faces. Then, she actually took off two human skin masks.

Everyone looked again and saw that the assassin and Sticky Pillar's expression changed greatly. They did not see the real assassin and Sticky Pillar's butler at all.

Seeing this, everyone was extremely shocked and didn't know what was going on.

In fact, he already knew that the assassin who tried to assassinate the first wife, Torrigo, was already seriously injured. Therefore, the first wife and he had come up with a plausible scheme to frame Meng Ge and make him sweat. As for the real pillar of resistance, it had long been secretly poisoned to death by the Sect Leader of the Five Immortal Cult.

Then, the Imperial Advisor Huo Shi said to the crowd in a hypocritical manner, 'What's going on? They were all locked up in the cell. Why did they become fakes now?'

"Exactly, who did this, we must investigate it strictly." Prime Minister Zuo, Cha He followed the Imperial Advisor Huo Zhi's words.

Although everyone didn't know what was going on, they knew that Brother Meng and Jiang Han were the accomplices of Huo Shi's group. They had a faint feeling in their hearts that this was a conspiracy planned by Huo Shi and the others, but they didn't dare to say it out loud.

Kublai knew that he had to take it when he saw it, so he immediately went to report the case to the grand concubine together with the Imperial Advisor Huo Shi, in an attempt to get Big Brother Meng and Big Khan free from the crime as soon as possible.
