Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Demon Exterminator (1)
late at night
Ye Xinghuan quietly walked out of the palace with Yin Huan, and the two came to the dry well outside the city, and after a closer look, there was nothing wrong with it, "I want to go down and have a look." ”
Ye Xinghuan wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he pursed his lips, "You are waiting here, I'll go down and explore first." With that, he flew down to the bottom of the well. After half a pillar of incense, he came up, "The bottom of the well is nothing unusual except for the blood that gushed out before. After speaking, he handed the scabbard in his hand to Yin Huan, "I know that you must not be at ease, I want to go and see the blood water, and I also brought it to you, but there is nothing to hold the water." ”
Yin Huan smiled and looked at Ye Xinghuan, although he was a killer, he was meticulous everywhere, but Ye Xinghuan pretended not to see it and turned his face to the side. Yin Huan took the scabbard, and a smell of blood had already surged up, and he couldn't help frowning slightly.
"I have looked carefully, the bottom of the well is flat, there are no loopholes, unless this blood water is like the Taoist priest said, it is the work of unjust souls, otherwise, it is impossible to come out of the ground."
"Do you believe that there are ghosts in this world?" Yin Huan walked around the dry well and asked casually.
"Hmph, there are countless people who have died under my sword, and if there were any ghosts, I would have died no less than a hundred times." Yexing said coldly and arrogantly.
"That's right." Yin Huan chuckled, but her cold eyes revealed doubts, of course she was relieved to do things at night, but there was no hole, where did all this blood come from? Sniffing the blood again, his eyebrows stretched slightly, "Ye Xinghuan, you can take me down for a trip, I have found some problems, and they need to be verified again." ”
Yin Huan looked at Ye Xinghuan quietly, signaled with his eyes, and put the blood on the side of his nose, Ye Xinghuan was used to smelling blood, first his eyebrows tightened, and finally, he looked at Yin Huan with some surprise, seeing that he finally knew what the problem was, she raised her lips and smiled, and her son could be taught.

"Your Majesty, the Taoist priest is still shouting outside with the people, and he also threatens to ask the emperor to receive him, otherwise, the catastrophe will inevitably continue to come. If the emperor refuses to meet again, two days later, he will set fire to the palace gate**, hoping to ...... alleviate the sins of the emperor...... Let...... The innocent people are less punished. "Xiao Jian was originally investigating the case of Concubine Wan, but he was urgently transferred by the emperor to the city gate to guard. The people were in turmoil, and if the situation became more serious, he would suppress it with military force.
"Bastard, gossip confuses the public." Cang Linchen shouted angrily.
"Your Majesty, the people have gathered more and more, and they have been guarding the palace gate for two days and one night, and there are a lot of rumors in the market. I heard that there were three girls in Yanyulou who died violently in bed last night, and the death was terrifying. Also, a lame beggar named Zhang Ergou suddenly ran hundreds of feet this morning when he was begging for food in the west of the city, and his legs were all right, and finally suddenly burst and died......
"What burst and died?" Cang Linchen roared a little irritably.
Xiao Jian paused, and looked up at Cang Rinchen, "Zhang Ergou's whole person was broken into several pieces, and there was no corpse in his body. ”
Cang Rinchen slammed his hand on the table, the bookcase was suddenly broken in half, his eyes stared at Xiao Jian widely, the most taboo among the people is that there is no corpse, no matter whether this Zhang Ergou has relatives or not, it can make the people of the entire capital panic and panic. "There must be someone behind these things, Xiao Jian, you immediately send someone to investigate, and within three days, you must give me an answer."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Xiao Jian retreated.
As soon as he came out of the door, he was swept into the dark by a black shadow, Xiao Jian was about to draw his sword, and immediately felt a little numb in the tiger's mouth, looked up at the other party in surprise, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Night guard? ”
Ye Xinghuan withdrew the hilt of his sword and gave way to some positions, Yin Huan walked out from behind him, squinting and smiling at Xiao Jian, "Isn't it a little choked?" ”
Xiao Jian was taken aback, "Yin Huan? Hurriedly took a few steps forward and walked in front of Yin Huan, "The last time you were assassinated by an assassin, I have always wanted to see you, but the emperor didn't allow it, and asked me to investigate Concubine Wan's case, you are better now." ”
"Much better. I know that the emperor has an accident here, and he also asked Ande to probe the truth, but he can't find out at all, it is very different from the previous situation, it seems that this time the matter should be very serious, otherwise, I would not have transferred you from there. ”
Xiao Jian sighed and said the general story of the matter, "This time the matter is getting bigger and bigger, and the people and courtiers are all in a panic. The emperor was annoyed by the courtiers and had a headache, and it was difficult to sleep and eat. These cases are so bizarre, could it be that there are really ghosts and gods? ”
Yin Huan's eyes darkened a lot, and he tried hard to raise a smile, "I believe you must have been forced by the emperor too, hurry up and get busy, and when the matter is done, we will get together again, by the way, you have to be careful in everything." ”
Xiao Jian looked at Yin Huan quietly and said softly, "You too." Recently, there has been chaos inside and outside the palace, so don't walk around and stay in the East Palace as much as possible. ”
"Well, okay, I got it. Go ahead, it's important to get down to business. ”
Xiao Jian nodded at Ye Xinghuan, turned around and left.
Yin Huan sighed heavily, "Let's go to the Palace of Tranquility." She looked at Ye Xinghuan and said softly: "In this situation, I have to let the Queen Mother come forward to say that I can move Cang Rinchen." ”
Ye Xinghuan clasped her hands around her chest and followed behind Yin Huan, she glanced sideways slightly, and sure enough, as he said, as long as it was her decision, he would do it and would not say another word.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of Anning Palace, although Ye Xinghuan's expression was as usual, Yin Huan looked carefully, and the knuckles of his sword were a little white, indicating that now the combat effectiveness of his whole body had been improved to the extreme, and Ye Xinghuan's heart was to regard the Queen Mother like a wolf and a tiger, and these abnormalities were all after the incident in the Cold Palace.
While thinking about it, Mo Li walked out quickly and blessed Yin Huan, "See the queen mother." ”
"There is something important in this palace to meet the Queen Mother." Yin Huan said coldly.
"I'm sorry, Niangniang, the Queen Mother has a life, she wants to chant the scriptures in the Buddha Hall for three days, pray for the blessings of the Great Qing Kingdom and the Emperor, hoping to avoid this catastrophe. No one is to be disturbed. "Mo Li's words are relaxed, not only will not offend Yin Huan, but also forcibly turn her away." The slave will tell the Queen Mother on behalf of the mother, just wait for the Queen Mother to finish chanting, and she must inform the mother immediately. ”
Yexing Huanjun's eyebrows were furrowed, and he was about to speak, but he saw Yin Huan's hand raised slightly, "Well, that's good, then you tell the Queen Mother for the palace, if you don't want to have something to do with the country, it's useless to rely on the Buddha, but I'm afraid that after three days, the wood has already been completed, even if the Daluo Immortal descends to earth, he can't help the emperor." After speaking, Yin Huan turned around and left.
Mo Li was secretly shocked in her heart, she knew that although this queen was not favored by the queen mother, her intelligence and intelligence should not be underestimated, and she called softly behind Yin Huan, "Niangniang, the slave maid will go in and spread the word now, but if the queen mother ......"
Yin Huan turned to look at her and smiled faintly, "This palace knows your difficulties, go ahead." ”
*
"I heard that you want to see the mourning family, is there a way to tide over the difficulties for the Great Qing Kingdom?" The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows and looked at Yin Huan, and asked slowly.
Yin Huan smiled, "The concubine asked herself that she didn't have such a great ability, and it was up to the Queen Mother to be able to tide over the difficulties for the Great Qing Kingdom." If the Queen Mother wants the Emperor to survive this catastrophe, ask the Queen Mother to persuade the Emperor to let the Taoist Elder enter the palace. ”
The Queen Mother smiled coldly, looked at Yin Huan with sarcasm, and thought that she could come up with a good idea, "Joke, that demon bewitches the people and incites the people, it is precisely because of him that he made this incident cause the whole city to be stormy, and the grass and trees are all soldiers, if the emperor let him enter the palace, doesn't he agree with his statement?" ”
"Queen Mother, now those people have already regarded this Taoist chief as the reincarnation of immortals, coupled with the fact that strange cases have occurred in many places in the capital this time, the people's hearts are unstable, if the emperor lets this Taoist enter the palace at this time, the concubines have their own ways to break this catastrophe. The emperor is now anxious, and he decreed that no one should ask to see him, so the concubines came to bother the queen mother to go this way. ”
"Why do the mourners believe you? Are you the remnant of the winning country, why don't you take this opportunity to harm me? ”
Yin Huan was not angry or angry, and said softly with a light smile as usual: "The concubine just cares about a truth that is both prosperous and ruined. If that long doppelganger has skills, how can the concubines be able to go out of the palace conveniently? However, if the concubine wants to leave the palace, please also ask the queen mother to hide it, and the concubine also needs to borrow someone from the queen mother, and within ten days, this demon will definitely be eradicated. ”
The Queen Mother stared at Yin Huan's cold eyes tightly, she knew that this time there was really no one to solve, as the king of a country, if even the people's hearts were unstable, how could it be possible for the country to be stable? Now the demon matter has already made people panic, if Xia Yinhuan can do it, of course, it is the best, if it can't be done, there is just a chance to cure her crime, "Okay, the mourning family will agree to what you want, but if you let the mourning family know that you are talking wildly, the mourning family will definitely not spare it." ”
"Expected, however, concubines have never liked to give people the opportunity to rectify me. Time is pressing, please forgive the concubines for retiring first, Queen Mother, the key person in this bureau has to rely on Shangguan Yunlong. You sent someone to order Xiao Jian to come to the East Palace to see the concubine. Yin Huan saw that the Queen Mother was puzzled, and said with a smile: "Xiao Jian is the emperor's person, this time he was ordered by the emperor to investigate this case, and with him and his concubines working together, maybe they can find out the answer faster." ”
Let Xiao Jian come to help, she has her own plans, this time the matter is so big, the slightest carelessness will cause fire**, and it will even affect Cang Linchen, she must not let this kind of thing happen. And the best thing is to find someone you trust to help you.
Walking out of the Anning Palace, Ye Xinghuan said in a deep voice: "I asked Tianlang to secretly monitor that demon road, according to Tianlang's reply, he has not left the palace gate for the past two days. ”
"That shows that they are still a gang, division of labor and cooperation, in order to disrupt our sight, these people's courage and strategy are not simple." Yin Huan frowned and said: "Now we can only wait for the news of the Queen Mother, by the way, you will remember to send medicine to Concubine Rong later......" Speaking of this, Yin Huan couldn't help but sigh, although she had found out the real culprit, but she went to tell Cang Rinchen, how could he believe that the Queen Mother, who had always eaten fasting Buddha, would be so ruthless, and she had no solid evidence.
Lian Rong's body is weak, and if she stays there any longer, I'm afraid she will ......
"I know how to do it, don't worry." Ye Xinghuan only thought that Yin Huan was worried that Lian Rong was afraid of staying alone in the cold palace, feeling guilty and blaming herself. And her body is so weak, if it weren't for saving them, she wouldn't have to suffer this kind of suffering at all, and she was also worried about Lianrong.
Yin Huan nodded and didn't speak again.
