Imperial City, Chang'an Palace, the interior of the Imperial Palace.

The more important officials basically arrived one after another in the half hour after dark, and there was a lot of discussion.

"What the hell just happened?

Why hasn't any news flowed out from Qin Tianjian's side, and it doesn't look like a solar eclipse, do you know, Master Zhang? Have you ever seen it in a book? ”

"The old man has lived for more than 70 years, it is really unseen, unheard of, the last solar eclipse The old man also saw it with his own eyes, and there is no resemblance to this blackening.

A solar eclipse is a gradual dimming of the sun, and there is a gradual process, and the sun does not disappear completely, in most cases, there is still a small circle of light in the outermost part of the sun.

The level of darkness is at most similar to that of night, and those with better eyes can still see people not far away, but this time it is really different, and it is really impossible to reach out and lose five fingers.

There is no light to be seen up and down, left and right.

It's really scary! ”

"That's true, I'm afraid it's not a curse?"

"Let me tell you, the light is not the most terrible, the most terrible thing is that there was a light next to me at that time, so I specially lit the lamp, thinking that after lighting the lamp, the surrounding environment should not be so dark.

But do you know what's going on?

Although the lamp was lit, it did not disperse at all, only the candle flame the size of the tip of the finger was lit, and the place outside the candle that should have been illuminated by the firelight was still dark.

I don't know how to describe that feeling.

It's like seeing a ghost.

It's as if there is an extra candle the size of a fingernail in the dark, and that candle flame can't illuminate the surroundings, nor can it illuminate the candle below, as if it is independent out of thin air.

There is no support for the up, down, left and right.

Evil thieves! ”

"I was far away and was about to go to one of my family's villages, so I could clearly see a large area in front of me, plunged into absolute darkness.

But beyond that darkness everything was the same.

The sun is still the sun.

The light also shines on us normally.

So I think it's probably not a natural disaster, and it may really have something to do with strange forces.

It's so wicked, it's creepy to watch! ”

As soon as the ministers present discussed for a while, Emperor Yuqian hurriedly came, and directly said that he would be polite and flat, and looked at the ministers with a very serious expression and said:

"You should have seen what happened today.

The darkness is not very large, and even from what I know so far, the dark area is almost a circle, and the center is in the execution ground.

And this time the people who should have been beheaded in public.

Most of them have fled now.

Therefore, this sudden darkness must have been deliberately designed by someone to save those rebellious ministers and thieves, although I don't know how the thief did it, but it should be the case.

Therefore, there is no need to discuss this matter too much, you should quickly coordinate the manpower to arrest all those rebellious ministers and thieves, regardless of whether they live or die, and immediately explain the reason to the people, so that they do not speculate wildly. ”

The reason why Emperor Yuqian came relatively late was mainly because he was collecting information and thinking about countermeasures, thinking about how to explain this sudden darkness based on the information.

And when he knew that the dark radiation was not very wide.

Even when the execution ground is in the middle position.

He found the reason for the explanation.

In order to prevent those ministers from speaking first, he specially hurried to explain the situation as soon as he came up, and characterized the matter, lest any more ministers play and say that he will be punished by heaven and inducted by heaven and man, and he will be guilty of his own edict or something.

He wants to be the first emperor of the ages.

How can there be such a flaw as guilt and self-discovery, even if there is a natural disaster, it must be someone else's sin.

When the ministers present heard this, most of them immediately understood that the emperor's determination was very great, and they wanted to deduct this matter from the heavenly and human senses, and it was also very difficult to try to limit the imperial power, and the most important thing was that Emperor Yuqian really dared to kill people, and one kill was tens of thousands.

They dare to use their own heads to spell out their names.

But he didn't dare to fight with his family.

So even if someone has an opinion, no one dares to pick a stab in public at this time, so the final verdict of this matter naturally came out, it was someone who wanted to rob the prison, so he deliberately made such an absolute darkness.

At the same time, the officials in charge of public security in the capital.

It immediately invited a decree to block the gate of the capital, and immediately mobilized the soldiers of the whole city and even the guards of the forbidden army to conduct a comprehensive investigation of the capital.

For a time, there was a lot of noise in the capital, and most of the ordinary people closed their homes, only those who were responsible for the comprehensive investigation of the capital, wandering around the streets, walking, and arresting suspicious people, or those who were still wearing prison uniforms.

You know, the fugitives who escaped this time.

It's not a big thief, and even a large part of them are usually pampered, not to mention the ability to detect and deal with it, just physical strength and understanding of some folk common sense, they are not very good.

Some of them haven't been able to get a change of clothes yet.

It's even more normal.

Such fugitives are not too easy to catch, and it didn't take long for most of the people who escaped this time to be re-arrested, and some of those who resisted were even killed on the spot, and Ding Yun and his family were delayed for a lot of time because of changing clothes and not going to eat, and they couldn't escape from the capital in time at all.

By the time they received the news, the whole city had been put under martial law, and all the gates were closed, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

However, at this time, the original father still didn't think about how to escape, but kept muttering how could this be, muttering that such a big thing had happened, why didn't the emperor make an edict or something?

How can you not forgive the world or something.

The annoyed Ding Yun couldn't help but give him a critical blow: "Father, have you read the criminal law?"

Haven't you heard of the heinous, the rebellion is in the ten unforgivable sins, although we are not directly involved, but it is also because the prince's party rebellion was implicated, what do you think we are carrying on our backs?

Rebellion or auxiliary rebellion? ”

Ding Yun actually wanted to say this a long time ago, but he didn't want to hit them too much before, but they didn't give up at this point, which was really too much.

If they don't recognize the reality clearly, the future will inevitably be more difficult, and they may be killed by personality later.

As soon as Ding Yun's words came out, her father and eldest brother really couldn't hold back anymore, and at the same time, her mother and sister-in-law and other people who had read books basically understood what the so-called heinous people meant, because this word really didn't have any difficulties in understanding, it was completely as the name suggested.

In just an instant, the little hope in their hearts that they had built with great difficulty completely collapsed.

Some even cried out because of this.

Then, a soldier came looking for him.
