"Are you crazy?!"

Luan Chuan's voice spread throughout the inn in an instant, and at the same time, a pair of hands also tightly grasped the placket in front of Gu Changqing, his eyes were red and he gritted his teeth and said, "Could it be that you called me here for this!" ”

"That's right! Let you sigh at this amazing work, and then completely destroy it! Gu Changqing's expression did not change in the slightest.

"Impossible!" Luan Chuan let go of his hand and said loudly, "Isn't this behavior a tyrannical thing!" ”

"What about the tyrannical creatures? Since this painting is a demonic thing, it must be destroyed, otherwise it will only be a disaster for the world to stay! Gu Changqing's momentum is also not lagging behind.

"Nonsense!" Luan Chuan's face had turned pale, "As the owner of the Shensi Building, as the sacrificial official of the Han and Jin Dynasty, I can't even see the demonic things, how do you know, isn't it a joke!" ”

"Is it really a joke?" Gu Changqing sneered, "Could it be that the priest forgot how he felt just now?" The whole person seems to be sucked in by this painting, wanting to get out but can't get out, let you shout loudly but can't make the slightest sound, gradually, your whole body becomes weak, and there seem to be countless voices around you talking to you, over and over again, again and again! ”

"No way, absolutely impossible." Luan Chuan violently refused, but the momentum had already fallen, "This is a joke at all, I have lived for so long, and I have never seen anything demonic, not to mention this painting, there is no problem!" ”

"Sucking people's blood and drawing people into paintings, that's the problem with it, so it has to be destroyed." Gu Changqing paused, "And looking at the entire Han Jin Dynasty, only you, the sacrificial official Luan Chuan, can do this!" ”

"I disagree!"

Gu Changqing looked at him seriously with his cool and clean eyes, and said with no doubt, "I have already discussed with the emperor, on the fifteenth day of this month, when there is something different in the sky, it is the time when you open the altar and try to destroy the monster!" ”

Luan Chuan didn't know how he returned to the Shensi Building from the inn, this way seemed to hear a lot of people talking, extremely noisy, but it didn't seem to see a person, the world was white, only he was walking on a road with no end!

"You have to do it......"

"You are a sacrificial official, in charge of the fate of the Han and Jin Dynasty, you can't shirk or shirk......"

"The emperor has agreed that you will destroy it with your own hands......"

Gu Changqing's voice echoed in his mind over and over again, sometimes clear and sometimes blurred, but without exception, he clearly knew that he could not avoid this matter.

Suddenly, Luan Chuan exhaled a big breath, and then the whole person woke up from the nightmare, and after a short period of confusion, he looked around seriously, Wu Mengliang's "Thousand Miles of Ice Map" was still hanging on the wall, the set of glass cups he liked was still there, and the table was still a good pear blossom wood, yes, it was his own room...... But just now...... Is it a dream?

"Landlord, landlord!" Dongsheng, who was beside Luan Chuan, looked at him who was not completely awake, and said anxiously, "You woke up, scared me to death!" ”

"What's wrong with me?"

"You went out with that Gu Zhuangyuan, we waited for a long time and didn't see you come back, just about to look for it, I saw you staggering back, just arrived at the door, and fainted!" Dong Sheng said with palpitations, "My lord, what are you doing here!" ”

"Dongsheng!" Luan Chuan held Dongsheng's arm tightly, his eyes full of anticipation, "Are you sure I went out with that Gu Zhuangyuan?" Are you sure I haven't been sleeping here dreaming? ”

Dong Sheng shook his head inexplicably, "You did go out with that Gu Zhuangyuan, and you have been there for a long time!" ”

"Oh my God, why don't you take me away!!" Luan Chuan, who had just woken up, fell on the soft collapse again, his eyes were dull, and he was still muttering words that others couldn't understand.

…………………………

Chaoyang City, the capital of the Han and Jin dynasties, is not only a place where economic exchanges are rapid and political personnel change frequently, but also a fermentation place and dissemination place for various gossip and rumors.

Luan Chuan lost his mind strangely for two days, only two days, and on the third day, he left the Shensi Building refreshed and began to find that the streets and alleys were all rumors about himself.

And these rumors only revolve around one thing, that is, the sacrificial officials of the Han and Jin Dynasty were sucked by the demons in the "Palace Night Banquet Map", so that now the three souls are missing one soul, and the seven souls are missing three souls, and they are already delirious, babbling words that people can't understand.

Luan Chuan stayed at home in a daze for two days, and as soon as he came out, he was so shocked that he was at a loss for a while, and wanted to pull someone to explain that he was not like a rumor, but found that no one had come to listen to what he said, and the girl who had surrounded him as soon as he saw him ran away in fright.

Luan Chuan returned to the Shensi Building in a hurry, and before he could get angry, Na Dongsheng had already pleaded guilty, "My lord, I have already told you that the astrological signs that have been in charge of your life in the past few days are reversed, and it is not appropriate to go out!" ”

"It's not good to go out and fart!" Luan Chuan couldn't help but scold, "Say, what is the situation with the rumors outside!" ”

"I don't know what the hell is going on. There was such a rumor after you came back that day with a confused expression. I only heard that at that time, you left an inn alone, and walked all the way back to the Shensi Building, and along the way you talked nonsense, saying that the "palace night banquet map" was a monster, which would eat people, and suck people's souls, and you also said that even if you were crazy, you would take down this monster and so on! Dongsheng said as he moved away from Luan Chuan a little, "Although I heard these things, but now it seems that those people have believed your crazy words, after all, you still have your previous prestige!" ”

"!" Luan Chuan couldn't help but throw aside the things at hand, "What do you say about painting as a demon, casting spells and setting up an altar to drive it away, I think it's the trap that Gu Changqing set for me." ”

After losing his temper, Luan Chuan slowly thought clearly, and then said, "Dongsheng, prepare a car for me, I'm going to see the emperor!" ”

Dongsheng paused and whispered, "My lord, the emperor is already waiting for you!" ”

Seeing that Luan Chuan looked uncertain at this time, Dongsheng moved away from him again and continued, "In the morning, the emperor will send someone to spread the word, and you must enter the palace before the time of today, set up an altar to cast spells, and drive away demons!" Dongsheng paused, "Today is the fifteenth, the sky is different, and it is the most suitable for casting spells to exorcise demons!" ”

Luan Chuan looked at the astronomical watch hanging on his wall, and it was indeed clearly written that on April 15 of the year of Renxu, there is something different in the sky, and there should be a sign of a heavenly dog swallowing the moon!

"What if I don't go?"

Dongsheng shook his head, "My lord, the emperor has already ordered, if you don't go, I'm afraid that our entire Shensi Building will be charged with violating the emperor's order!" ”

Dong Sheng was afraid that this sacrificial official would really take the imperial order as a deaf ear if he was unhappy, so as he spoke, he took out a piece of clothing from behind him, which was the costume of the sacrificial official when he held the ceremony, "My lord, the clothes have been prepared, and the hot water for bathing has been put away!" ”

Luan Chuan thought for a while, and then resigned himself to his fate, "Don't worry, I won't run, if this amazing masterpiece is really inevitable, it is better to die in my hands than in the hands of others!" ”

Dongsheng nodded seriously, "That's what the adults said!" ”

After Luan Chuan's simple bathing and changing clothes, it was already Shen Shi, without much delay, he got into the carriage and headed towards the palace, all the way can be said to be unsettled, thinking about how to dissuade him after seeing the emperor, thinking about how to get angry after seeing Gu Changqing.

However, when Tokatsu parked the carriage outside the palace gate and lifted the curtain to tell him that Miyagi had arrived, he was unusually calm.

Dongsheng, as his assistant, naturally followed in, the two walked in from Zhengyangmen, and saw many people with frightened and excited faces along the way, Luan Chuan knew that there was no room for maneuver in this matter, but it was a pity that the "palace night banquet map" that took five years to complete was about to turn into ashes.

Luan Chuan and the others walked forward for a while, and then they saw the senior father-in-law coming with an eager face, "Why did you come, priest!" The emperor is angry when he waits for you! ”

"I'm not feeling well, that's why I'm delayed! I'm tired of my father-in-law leading the way! ”

At this time, the emperor was not in the imperial study or in the first class, but had already gone to the moon pavilion with a very good scenery to place the best wine.

"Luan Chuan, you're late today, punish yourself with three cups of apology." The emperor looked at him and said quietly.

"The priest will set up an altar to cast spells in a while, I'm afraid I can't drink the bar!" Gu Changqing said faintly, but the hand holding the wine jug poured a full cup in front of Luan Chuan.

Luan Chuan knew that he was set by Gu Changqing when he went to the inn to see the paintings that day, and when he saw him on the other side at this time, he hated him so much, but the emperor was still there, and he couldn't get angry, so he could only warn with indignant eyes.

Gu Changqing didn't care about Luan Chuan's eyes, he drank a little wine by himself, and interjected a sentence from time to time, which seemed to outsiders to be harmonious.

"Your Majesty, do you really have to do this?" After drinking some wine, Luan Chuan, who was slightly drunk, couldn't control his desire to question, grabbed the emperor's hand and said, "This is the "Palace Night Banquet", it is a stunning masterpiece made by the painter for five years, are you really willing to do it?" ”

Dongsheng, who was standing behind Luan Chuan, looked at him like this at this time, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and quickly grabbed his clothes and dragged him over, "My lord, you drink too much, don't talk drunk!" ”

"If I don't say it, if I don't say it, no one will say it, this painting is going to be burned!" Luan Chuan didn't actually drink too much, and at this time, he just wanted to use the strength of the wine to say those words.

Luan Chuan himself understood this situation, Gu Changqing understood, and the emperor also understood, so he didn't get angry, but said, "You drank too much, go down and prepare first!" ”

"I didn't drink much, but this painting was burned so much, I feel distressed!" Luan Chuan patted his chest, and said with tears in his eyes like a woman!

"Demon thing, what's so distressed!"

"It's not a demon!"

"Presumptuous!" The emperor, who was not angry at first, couldn't help but get angry when he saw that Luan Chuan didn't look like a sacrificial official at this time, "I think you're too good a sacrificial official, too idle, you can't help but go to heaven!" ”

The emperor is only five or six years older than the cloud prince, but the two are indeed extremely different, the cloud prince is poetry and wine all day long, a friendly look, the emperor has been on the throne for more than ten years, has long become majestic and steady, at this time, a slap on the table, is the wrath of thunder, even with the people on the moon pavilion platform and the guards below all kneeling, waiting for forgiveness!

"The emperor is angry." Gu Changqing raised his head, "This priest must have loved the "palace night banquet map" to speak like this, and his reason is forgivable, and he asked the emperor to spare him this time!" ”

"Alright, let's all get up!" The emperor glared at Luan Chuan, "If you don't know the height of the sky, it won't be like this!" ”

Luan Chuan knelt on the ground, "The minister knows his mistake!" ”

"Okay, the hour is almost up, don't wait here, see what is prepared for you, if you don't have anything, just let Gao Tang prepare!"

Luan Chuan nodded, saluted, and retreated.

Gu Changqing looked at the hour at this time, turned his head to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the hour is almost up, let's go and prepare!" ”
