Chapter 264: The Scourge of Witchcraft

"I see...... Wait, his prince is dead, and the teacher knows that it is the scourge of witches", Feiyang suddenly realized that he remembered a major event in history.

"What is the scourge of witchcraft".

"The witchcraft obtained by the human race through the witch tribe is divided into white witchcraft and black witchcraft, and the "Feizi Zhuyou Chapter" compiled by the teacher is white witchcraft, which is mainly used to cure diseases and save people, and the black witchcraft is extremely vicious, specifically for the sake of harming people, at this time, I am afraid that it is black witchcraft that troubles the court, causing this Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to be riddled with diseases, he knows that he is proficient in white witchcraft, so he will bring people to worship me and pray for my protection."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was obsessed with women all his life, and there were many beauties in the harem who fell out of favor one after another, in order to regain the favor of the emperor, the concubines of the harem invited witches into the palace, trying to regain the favor of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty with witchcraft, and at the same time the black witchcraft of the people he was jealous of, for a time the harem was confused, and from time to time there were incidents involving the ministers of the court because of the witch Gu of the harem, and at this time the queen Wei Zifu was old and decrepit, and lost the favor of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and at the same time, the power of the Wei family in the court was growing day by day.

Once, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty lived in Jianzhang Palace, saw a man with a sword into the Zhonglonghua Gate, suspected that it was an unusual person, he ordered someone to capture, the man abandoned the sword and fled, the guards chased after him, failed to capture, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was furious, the door in charge of the entrance and exit of the palace gate was executed, the cavalry was recruited to conduct a large search on Shanglin Yuan, and ordered the Chang'an City Gate to be closed for searching, eleven days later the martial law was lifted, and the witch Gu incident began to appear.

Prime Minister Gongsun He's wife Wei Junru is the sister of Empress Wei, Gongsun He was favored because of this, Gongsun He's son Gongsun Jingsheng succeeded his father as a servant, arrogant and extravagant, and did not abide by the law. He used 19 million dollars of the Northern Army without authorization, and was arrested and imprisoned after the matter was exposed.

At this time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was ordering the urgent arrest of Moxia Zhu Anshi in various places, so Gongsun He asked Emperor Wu of Han to put him in charge of hunting down Zhu Anshi to atone for his son Gongsun Jingsheng, and Emperor Wu of Han approved his request. Later, Gongsun He really arrested Zhu Anshi, but Zhu Anshi smiled and said, "The prime minister is about to bring disaster to the whole family!" So he went to the court from prison and revealed that "Gongsun Jingsheng had an affair with Princess Yangshi, and he learned that His Majesty was going to Ganquan Palace, so he asked the wizard to bury the puppet on the special galloping road of His Majesty, curse His Majesty, and speak evil words."

This Zhu Anshi is a member of the Mo family. And the mechanism of the Mo family is not much worse than that of the public loser, after he was arrested, he made a puppet and went to collect Gongsun Jingsheng's handle, and wanted to use this handle to blackmail Gongsun He to release himself, and then he knew about it.

He is a member of the Mo family, advocating both love and non-attack, and knows that if Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is killed by witchcraft. It will inevitably cause chaos in the world and make life difficult for the people. Therefore, he informed Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty about this, which could not only take revenge on Gongsun He, but also avoid turmoil in the world.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent people to dig the ground, and sure enough, he found the puppeteer, and immediately, Gongsun He was arrested and imprisoned. After investigation, the charges were true, both father and son died in prison and were exterminated, and Princess Zhuyi, another daughter born to Princess Yangshi and Empress Wei Zifu, and Wei Qing's eldest son Wei Yan were also implicated, so that they were all killed. Wei's political allies within the Han court were also completely lost, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty appointed Liu Quyu, the Taishou of Zhuojun, as prime minister and made him the Marquis of Peng.

At this time, the world's scholars and all kinds of gods and witches gathered in Chang'an, the capital division, most of them were to confuse everyone with the fantasy magic of the left side door, do everything, some witches came and went to the palace, taught the beauty in the palace to avoid the disaster, buried wooden people in each room, sacrificed, many concubines were jealous and quarreled with each other, they took turns to accuse each other of cursing the emperor, great rebellion, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was furious, and the person who was accused was executed, and the harem concubines, palace maids and implicated ministers killed hundreds of people.

After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty became suspicious, once, taking a nap during the day, he dreamed that there were thousands of wooden people holding sticks and wanted to attack him, Huo Ran woke up, and since then he felt unwell, in a trance, and his memory has been greatly reduced.

Jiang Chong thought that he had a suspicion with the crown prince Liu Ju and Empress Wei, and seeing that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was old, he was afraid that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty would be killed by Liu Ju after his death, so he made a conspiracy, saying that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's illness was caused by witchcraft.

So Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent Jiang Chong as a messenger, responsible for finding out the witch case, Jiang Chong led the Hu people sorcerers to dig everywhere to find the wooden people, and arrested those who used witchcraft to harm people, prayed at night and claimed to be able to see ghosts, and ordered people to sprinkle blood stains in some places in advance, and then interrogated the arrested people, and pointed out those bloodstained places as the places where they harmed people with evil magic, and applied iron tongs to burn them, forcing them to confess, so the people falsely accused each other of using witchcraft to harm people, and the officials always participated in the impeachment of others for great rebellion, from the capital of Chang'anTens of thousands of people have died as a result of the three auxiliary regions to the counties and countries.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was very old, and he suspected that the people around him were cursing him with witch Gu, and those who were arrested and punished, no matter what the real situation was, no one dared to tell that they were wronged, Jiang Chong spied out the suspicion of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, so he instructed the Hu sorcerer Tan He Yan to say, "There is Gu Qi in the palace, if this Gu Qi is not removed, the emperor's illness will not be cured."

So, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent Jiang Chong into the palace, until the depths of the palace forbidden, destroyed the emperor's throne, dug the ground to find Gu, and sent many people to assist Jiang Chong.

Jiang Chong first started from the rooms of the concubines in the harem that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had paid little attention to, and then searched in turn, until he searched the queen's palace and the palace, and the ground everywhere was turned vertically and horizontally, so that the prince and the queen didn't even have a place to put their beds.

Liu Ju was very scared and asked the young master what Shi De should do, Shi De was afraid that he would be implicated and killed because he was the prince's teacher, so he said to Liu, "Previously, Gongsun He's father and son, two princesses and Wei Yan were all accused of using witchcraft to harm people and were killed, and now the wizard and the emperor's envoy dug up evidence from the palace, I don't know if the wizard placed it, or if there is."

We can't explain it clearly, you can fake the holy decree, arrest Jiang Chong and others in prison, and thoroughly investigate their treacherous plots, besides, Your Majesty is sick and lives in Ganquan Palace, the queen and the people you sent to ask for peace have not been able to see Your Majesty, whether Your Majesty is still there, it is not known, and the traitorous ministers dare to do this, have you forgotten the matter of the prince of the Qin Dynasty Fusu!".

Liu Ju then said, "How can I, as a son, kill the minister without authorization! It is better to go to Ganquan Palace to ask for guilt, maybe I can get away with it." Liu Ju planned to go to Ganquan Palace in person, but Jiang Chong seized on Liu Ju's matter and persecuted him very urgently, and Liu Ju couldn't think of any other way, so he acted according to Shi De's strategy.
