Chapter 019: Sharp Turn!
When the words fell, the man's fingers kept swinging, and in the dark night, the silver silk threads were pulled, and each finger seemed to be dancing, which was addictive to watch.
With the movement of his fingers, he kept reading something in his mouth. And the little puppet in front of him never made much movement, just levitating.
But if you look closely, you will find that this little puppet seems to be losing its life little by little, which also proves that the life of the Queen Mother seems to be being threatened little by little!
Qiao Qi added his own blood to the puppet that was casting, and the meager light emitted by the puppet just now suddenly turned blood red. And as Qiao Qi's mind became restless, the puppet also began to shake violently.
Long Zeye watched from the sidelines, and he never stretched his brows. He didn't know how to do witchcraft, but he wasn't stupid. From Qiao Qi's series of actions just now, he had already guessed that Qiao Qi was definitely invincible to the other party, and now he was making the final struggle.
He didn't care about Qiao Qi at all. All he cared about was his imperial grandmother.
At this moment, an uncomfortable moan suddenly came from the veil. Long Zeye immediately stood up and walked towards the veil.
When I saw the Empress Dowager lying on the bed, she was sweating profusely, and her hands were unconsciously clutching the blanket under her, as if she was suffering this great pain.
Long Zeye's face was full of anger in an instant, and he walked out from behind the veil angrily, looked straight at Qiao Qi, and just wanted to give him a palm, but Qiao Qi suddenly opened his eyes and spit out a mouthful of blood.
Almost at that moment, all the silk threads in Qiao Qi's hands were broken, and the puppet used for casting spells was also broken in half. Qiao Qi immediately fell into a coma because of his physical weakness.
Before falling unconscious, Qiao Qi seemed to hear it coming from the other side. The man said coldly and sarcastically: "With your unpopular ability, you will not be my opponent for another ten years!" ”
With Qiao Qi's coma, the Empress Dowager lying on the bed suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood. His face turned pale and fainted, and there was no more movement.
Long Zeye returned to the Empress Dowager's bed with an arrow step. Immediately took out the hand of the Empress Dowager and carefully checked the pulse. With this pulse, Long Zeye's face became even more ugly. Just now, the Empress Dowager was only under the control of witchcraft, and there was no damage to her body.
But after the battle between Qiao Qi and the other party just now, and the Empress Dowager herself is old, her body is now extremely weak, and her pulse has become very disordered and weak. Prompt treatment is essential.
"Doctor Chuan!" Long Zeye immediately yelled loudly outside.
Although he knew that those imperial doctors would not play a big role, but with so many people, it should still be possible to save the life of the empress dowager.
Fan Chengfu had been waiting outside, and when he heard Long Zeye's roar suddenly coming from inside, his legs weakened in fright, and then he immediately ran out in a hurry.
Qiao Qi fainted immediately because he was devoured by witchcraft, and fell there unconscious. But at the moment when Qiao Qi fell, Ai Gaoyi's face suddenly became extremely ugly.
"Ye Yan, drag this dog slave down. Kill it on a certain day! Long Zeye put the Empress Dowager's hand back into the quilt, and pointed at Qiao Qidao, who had fallen there, with great anger.
"Subordinates obey!" Ye Yan took the order. With a wave of his hand, two Kingsmen came up. dragged Qiao Qi down.
Ai Gaoyi just wanted to speak, but Long Zeye's fierce eyes had already shot over, and he said coldly: "Does the Prime Minister have any other explanation!" Now that the Empress Dowager is even more damaged, what should you be guilty of! ”
"Your Majesty, Old Minister" Even if he is as cunning as Ai Gaoyi, such a sudden thing happened, and he couldn't find a reasonable explanation all of a sudden.
Ai Duoer watched from the side, extremely anxious, and hated Qiao Qi even more in her heart. There was little time for her to think about it. Suddenly, he knelt at Long Zeye's feet, crying and pleading: "Your Majesty." The emperor is gracious! This qiē is all the fault of Qiao Qi's dog minion, and it has nothing to do with the concubine's father! ”
Long Zeye almost unceremoniously gave Ai Duoer a kick. Full of anger, he said, "It's okay? What the Prime Minister said just now, I haven't forgotten it! ”
Ai Duoer has been pampered since she was a child, and she is a very boudoir woman, where can she stand Long Zeye's kick. was kicked to the ground all of a sudden, covering his aching chest, and looked at Long Zeye with a tearful face.
Long Zeye looked at Ai Duo'er's face, and his heart was even more disgusted. With a full warning in his tone, he said, "And you, the first one I can't spare is you!" ”
"Your Majesty, this matter is really wronged! The concubine is even more innocent! Ai Gaoyi immediately knelt down a few steps, grabbed the hem of Long Zeye's dragon robe, and tried his best to justify.
"Come on, take Ai Guifei down and take strict care, and within a month, you must not take half a step out of Huaqing Palace!" Long Zeye shook off Ai Gaoyi, who was grabbing the hem of his clothes, didn't even look at Ai Duoer, and gave an order.
"No, Your Majesty, the concubine is wronged! The concubine didn't do anything, you can't do this to the concubine! When Ai Duoer was about to be taken down by the guards, she suddenly endured the pain in her chest, stood up and quickly ran over and grabbed Long Zeye's arm.
Long Zeye slapped the wind, and Ai Duoer flew out directly and fell heavily to the ground.
"Pull it down!"
Soon, a guard stepped forward immediately, and he didn't care about any noble concubine or not, so he walked out of Ningshou Palace with Ai Duoer and went in the direction of Huaqing Palace. Now that the emperor is angry, no one dares to take it lightly, for fear that one will be killed by accident.
Ai Gaoyi watched his daughter being taken down like this, and he didn't react much, but his heart relaxed a little. If the emperor really has evidence to prove that they murdered the empress dowager, I'm afraid Duo'er will not be grounded for a month.
Long Zeye's handling of it like this made him feel a lot more at ease. The current emperor does not have any evidence at all, and there will be no evidence. And according to his current power in the court, Liang Long Zeye didn't dare to do anything to himself!
"Come on, Ai Gaoyi deceived the monarch and intended to murder the Empress Dowager, and he will be imprisoned immediately, waiting for his fate!" Long Zeye clearly saw the smugness that flashed in Ai Gaoyi's eyes just now, sneered in his heart, and ordered directly.
Ai Gaoyi was still in his own thoughts and didn't come back to his senses, and when he heard Long Zeye's words that he was going to take him into prison, he immediately said to Long Zeye: "Your Majesty, the old minister is wronged, you have no evidence to arrest the old minister like this, how to face the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty?" ”
"I don't have to worry about this to the Prime Minister. Hold on! Long Zeye's face didn't show the slightest hesitation, and he directly faced the Imperial Forest Army who came in.
After Ai Gaoyi was escorted down, Fan Chengfu also rushed over with a group of doctors from the Tai Hospital. Fan Chengfu knew that the matter was urgent, so he directly took the imperial doctor into Ningshou Palace.
"Weichen and others see the emperor, the emperor is auspicious!" All the imperial doctors knelt on the ground and saluted.
"Your Majesty, the imperial doctors from the Tai Hospital are here, look" Fan Chengfu walked in front of Long Zeye, bowed and asked carefully.
"Let's all get up, the first-class imperial doctors will all go in to check the pulse of the empress dowager, and the rest are waiting in the outer hall." Long Zeye waved his hand and commanded the group of imperial doctors.
Aunt Hebi took advantage of the time just now, went down to make a cup of tea for the emperor and King Xiang, and presented it respectfully.
Although he knew that at this time, the emperor was in a bad temper, He Bi still stubbornly said: "Your Majesty, the slave is brave, please let the emperor send the people of Ningshou Palace lightly." ”
Long Zeye was originally drinking tea with a cup, and when he heard Hebi's words, he covered the teacup and glanced at Hebi.
He Biyuan was nervous, and when Long Zeye saw this, his heart was even more drumming, and his head was lowered all of a sudden.
"Brother Huang, although the people of Ningshou Palace are guilty of dereliction of duty, a huge Ningshou Palace cannot be served without one. Especially when you are in urgent need of someone to serve your grandmother, it is better to take it lightly! Anyway, let a few people out and wait. Long Zening also looked at Long Zeye and said.
Just now, when he saw Aunt Bi enter the inner hall to hang the veil, he wanted to mention it, but at that time, he had been taking care of the matter of breaking witchcraft, and he really didn't have time to talk about those little things.
Long Zeye twisted his eyebrows and said, "All the people in Ningshou Palace are not good for serving the Empress Dowager, and they will all be punished with twenty rods and fined for three months. ”
After speaking, he glanced at He Bi, and said lightly: "Aunt Nian Zai and Aunt Bi are old, and because you have to serve the Empress Dowager, you will be punished by half and fined for half a year!" ”
"The slave and maid thank the emperor for the grace of everyone in Ningshou Palace!" Hebi knelt on the ground gratefully and thanked him.
"Get up."
The imperial doctors were still treating the Empress Dowager in the inner hall, Long Zening looked at the direction of the inner hall, and asked a little worriedly, "What is the imperial brother going to do next?" But what about agreeing to their request and giving Jian Ning a three-day reprieve? ”
Thinking of this, Long Zeye's heart instantly sank to the bottom. Originally, he didn't believe in witchcraft, thinking that even if he did, it was just some tricks to confuse the world. But now that he saw it with his own eyes, there was a sense of crisis in his heart that he had never felt before.
That person was able to control the Empress Dowager so lightly, and when Qiao Qi tried to break his witchcraft, he seriously injured Qiao Qi, which can be said to be able to kill people invisibly.
If one day, when his target is no longer the Empress Dowager, but himself, will he be able to overturn Yuan Chu's country like this? How powerful is witchcraft?
"Brother Wang, now you take my token to the Criminal Department in person and bring Jian Ning to me." Long Zeye's thoughts turned a thousand times, and finally decided to interrogate Jian Ning again. The source of all this thing is because of this woman, how can she stay out of it!
"Yes, brother will go." Without the slightest surprise, Long Zening took the token in Long Zeye's hand and immediately left the palace. (To be continued) R861
