one step closer to the end

Most people were stunned by the news, the crown prince and Prince Duan also pricked up their ears, and even pushed their wives and concubines over to eavesdrop.

"Nonsense! Who dares to go to the bath when the emperor is not here..."

A well-informed lady said: "Didn't you realize that none of them came? Concubine Qian Gui is so beautiful that she took a box of golden melon seeds and gave rewards to the servants, saying that King Zhao rewarded her with a bunch of treasures. The imperial concubine was also abolished, and she was thrown as a slave!"

"Then the noble concubine is not allowed to hang herself..."

A concubine said in horror: "Wang Guifei usually bullies her a lot, and slapped her ears in public. This time, being a slave in her hands must be worse than death, mother! Bless the gods, I am not a queen!" Party, it has nothing to do with me!"

"What happened, why did Zhao Yunxuan go to Yulongchi..."

Prince Duan looked at the little princess in astonishment, and the little princess curled her lips and said: "The emperor treats him like a toilet, and throws all the junk he doesn't want into his mansion. Anyway, he has too many lice and is not afraid of being bitten. Go to his mansion and kowtow a long time ago!"

"Hey! Prince Yongshi is here..."

All the ladies showed obedient smirks, only to see that Zhao Guanren came over in a red dragon robe with two big sleeves swinging, Tan Qingning and Commander Duan followed behind him, but at this moment no one dared to approach him, Nodding your head is a way of saying hello.

"It's almost time! Let's start..."

Emperor Shunyao came out from the back of the hall with his hands behind his back, Jin Wuming and Eunuch Tian followed behind, concubines and princes all stepped forward to greet him, but Emperor Shunyao just raised his hand slightly and walked straight to the altar on the square .

"Everyone! Please quickly enter the circle..."

Celestial Master Xuanyang changed into an authentic seven-star bronze sword. Four men, four women and eight disciples were holding dustpans, using lime powder to draw a large circle around the altar, and finally sprinkled the remaining lime powder on the steps of the main hall Before, even the steps of the main hall were not spared.

"Your Majesty! Please sit here and don't get up..."

Emperor Xuanyang invited Emperor Shun Yao to sit down on the armchair on the left, and said loudly: "Everyone, listen carefully. Virgins without personnel stand on the right side of the emperor, boys stand on the left side of the emperor, men stand on the left side of the altar, and women stand on the right side of the altar. If you are not a man or a woman, please stand outside the circle!"

"Hmm~ Eunuch Tian! Please..."

Commander Duan coughed in embarrassment, and walked out of the circle side by side with Eunuch Tian.

"Grandfather! I'm here to accompany you..."

The little princess happily jumped to the emperor's side, Princess Yaoyue also walked over, and dozens of widowed concubines stood at the right hand of Emperor Shunyao, but there were only four boys, all of whom were half-educated princes and grandson.

"Hmph~ Look at how you discipline your children..."

Emperor Shun Yao snorted displeasedly, but Zhao Guanren also came over without saying anything, a group of women and the emperor were all stunned, and Yaoyue scolded angrily: "How shameless are you?" , you have the nerve to pretend to be a boy?"

"I have to be believed in my impersonation, but the matter is very important, and I can't let people impersonate..."

Zhao Guanren grabbed a ten-year-old imperial grandson and kicked him on the ass. The little boy ran away red-faced. The prince was so angry that he cursed at him, and the old woman who grabbed the brat slapped him several times.

"Young boys and girls here are listening! Kneel up and reverse Yin and Yang..."

Celestial Master Xuanyang waved the seven-star bronze sword and shouted, and the eight disciples immediately sat down, male and female, and knelt in the front, but Zhao Guanren stepped forward and grabbed the two female disciples, and said with a wry smile: "You two What kind of virgin do you want to commit the crime of deceiving the king?"

"What? When did you break your body and dare to deceive you as a teacher..."

Celestial Master Xuanyang walked forward in shock and anger, the faces of the two women turned pale in an instant, and they kowtowed on the ground in horror to admit their mistakes.

"Xuanyang! Can you do it? I don't think you are as good as Yunxuan..."

Emperor Shun Yao looked over very unhappy, Xuanyang Tianshi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said: "Your Majesty! The poor Taoist was also deceived by these two evildoers, can you please call the two virgins to help out? Just kneel on the ground, there will be no danger!"

"Yongning! Yongtai! You two stepped forward and knelt..."

Emperor Shunyao raised his finger slowly, the faces of the little princess and Princess Yaoyue changed slightly, Prince Duan also hurriedly shouted: "Father! This matter is extremely dangerous, how can I let them both kneel forward, my son Help you call two palace maids!"

"How about you also go forward and kneel down to see if that evil ghost recognizes you..."

Emperor Shun Yao gave him a cold look, Prince Duan immediately dared not speak, the little princess and Yaoyue could only bite the bullet and walked forward, kneeling with the two female disciples.

"Don't move! The poor Taoist will protect you well..."

Celestial Master Xuanyang picked up a bowl of cinnabar water, stepped forward and drew a ghost-killing talisman on Princess Yaoyue's back, but just as it was the little Princess' turn, she heard a "click", and the fine porcelain bowl suddenly split into four petals , a bowl of cinnabar water was poured down, causing everyone to change their faces.

Chapter 0498 surfaced

"Dang bang~"

The porcelain bowl was neatly shattered into four petals, and a bowl of cinnabar water was spilled on the ground, not only splashing the little princess's veil red, but also making all the people present change their expressions. A woman exclaimed: "There is something weird about Yongning. , I don't want the talisman to fall on her!"

"Fart your mother! You are the only one who is weird..."

The little princess jumped up angrily and cursed, but Emperor Shun Yao slapped the chair hard, and scolded: "You kneel down for me, don't get up, Xuanyang! Yunxuan! What's going on here?"

"I was lighting a cigarette, I didn't see it..."

Zhao Guanren held a cigarette and walked over in surprise, while Xuanyang Tianshi took two steps back and said solemnly: "An external force smashed the porcelain bowl in my hand, it was not a hidden weapon or something, but an invisible force , it should be because I don’t want me to drop a talisman on the Princess!”

"Yongning! Don't be afraid, take out everything on your body and throw it on the ground..."

Zhao Guanren stepped forward and patted the little princess on the shoulder. The little princess was also frightened. With a pale face, she took out all her belongings, but they were all bits and pieces, either girls' rouge powder or strange things. Quirky little toy.

"Master! You readjust the bowl and continue to drop the talisman, and draw a line on me..."

Zhao Guanren didn't see anything wrong, and Xuanyang Tianshi quickly mixed another bowl of cinnabar water. Unexpectedly, Zhao Guanren took off his robe, revealing his strong muscles, and said, "Draw a picture on my back." , let me see the power of your Ghost Killing Talisman!"

"it is good!"

Xuan Yang walked up behind him and recited Fajue, and drew the ghost-killing talisman like flying, but after finishing the drawing, Zhao Guanren smiled wryly: "Master! This thing of yours is a psychological comfort, nothing can stop it , it will be called hell if it works!"

"The grievance has its head, and the debt has its owner. Draw a talisman to tell them not to find the wrong person..."

Xuan Yang walked forward in embarrassment, and continued to draw on the back of the little princess, but this time nothing more happened, and all eight people were painted with ghost-killing charms.

"Woo~"

A gust of wind suddenly swept across the square, causing goosebumps all over everyone's body. Emperor Shun Yao straightened up, and the concubines huddled together in fright. Someone asked in horror: "Master! Is the grieving ghost gone?" coming?"

"Don't be afraid! They have already felt the power of the poor..."

Master Xuanyang confidently picked up the seven-star copper sword, stood behind the altar and said loudly: "Kids, close your eyes and don't look at it. No matter what happens later, you can squat or kneel, but you just can't leave." White circle, they have already begun to test!"

"..."

The women all huddled together in fear, and the princes bit the bullet and pretended to be heroes. Although Emperor Shun Yao seemed to be calmly crossing his legs, he said to Tan Qingning: "You are very good! You are still a virgin at such an age. For meritorious service, I will reward you well!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Tan Qingning clasped her fists in embarrassment and saluted. The emperor was clearly saying that she was an old lady, but before she finished speaking, she heard the sound of clappers. The time officially reached twelve o'clock in the middle of the night. The guards surrounding the square turned around collectively, facing the wall and listening carefully.

"Well, well, coax..."

Xuanyang Celestial Master danced his sword like jumping a big rope. Zhao Guanren estimated that if he was asked to recite the spell again, he would not be able to recite exactly the same spell. Was blown away.

"Woo~ I'm afraid! I don't want to kneel anymore, I didn't do it..."

The little princess cried out in fright, Princess Yaoyue's face was also livid, but Zhao Guanren shouted loudly: "If you don't do anything wrong, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. Ghosts will only seek revenge from their enemies. Don't do anything wrong." Afraid, the more you are afraid of it, the more fierce it will be!"

"Boom~"

Heavenly Master Xuanyang suddenly sprayed out a pillar of fire, picked up a copper bell and shook it desperately, bouncing up and down behind the eight people and jumping wildly on the big rope.

"Xuan Yang!"

Zhao Guanren suddenly squinted his eyes and shouted: "What the fuck, can't you see such a big guy? He's already come out, at the entrance of the main hall!"

"It won't be so fierce, right? You took the initiative to come to the door..."

Xuanyang Celestial Master took two steps back in shock, and quickly cut his palm with a copper sword, and smeared blood on his eyes, but his disciple suddenly exclaimed: "Master! Come, come, this time it's true!" Come on, look at the lime on the steps!"

"Escort! Hurry up and escort..."

Emperor Shun Yao jumped onto the chair suddenly, and pulled Tan Qingning in front of him. The women immediately screamed in horror, only to see that the limestone on the steps kept showing depressions, and it was obvious that something came out of the hall. , but the gravure that appears is not a footprint.

"Mother!"

Xuanyang Tianshi suddenly leaned back in fright, and fell to the ground with his buttocks. The little princess twitched in fright, urinated down her thighs and wet the ground, waving her hands and crying: "I don't Kneeling, quickly pull the owner up, help!"

"Kneel and don't move! You can't get up at this time..."

Zhao Guanren took two steps forward slowly, looked at the open space in front of the steps, and said with a sneer, "Jinbao! Don't you feel tired of kowtowing all the way here? Do you want to seek revenge from the emperor?"

"Jinbao! Jinbao is kowtowing..."

The concubines were so scared that they almost didn't blow up on the spot. Concubine Liu Gui, who was fooling around with Jin Bao all day, rolled her eyes and fainted on the ground with a "plop". Did not squat down.

"Xuanyang! You are waiting to die, and you still don't get up to slay demons..."

Emperor Shun Yao suddenly hugged Tan Qingning by the waist, and Tan Qingning sat on his lap in embarrassment, but she didn't dare to resist, but the crowd suddenly heard a "plop", and suddenly there was a person on the limestone ground. Deep forehead imprint.

"Why, why is there no knee print..."

The women squatted on the ground in horror, some didn't dare to open their eyes to look at it, and some hid under their skirts with their buttocks pouted.

"Sigh~"

Heavenly Master Xuanyang suddenly took a deep breath, stared at a pair of blood-smeared eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Jin Bao is not kowtowing, it, it lost its head, and picked it up all the way, who will kill it?" It’s too cruel to be chopped like this, isn’t it?”

"Puff~"

Several empresses were frightened and fainted one after another, and those who didn't fainted were not much better. Almost all squatted down and cried softly, and the few little princes were even more frightened and cried. None of them had the courage to straighten their backs.

"Don't talk nonsense, Jin Bao is just kowtowing, how can the servant not kowtow when seeing the master..."

Zhao Guanren took another two steps forward and said loudly: "The emperor's words! I'm safe, if you have something to say, get out if you have nothing to do. I will give you a set of shrouds with eight treasures and a coffin made of nanmu wood. They will be buried in the best Fengshui place in the capital. Reward reincarnation!"

"You can add some more, a beautiful funeral..."

Emperor Shunyao muttered subconsciously, but Zhao Guanren walked quickly to the front of the circle, frowned and said, "If the queen hurts you, go to the queen. The emperor does not control the affairs of the underworld. What? Someone else, who is it?" I buried you in the imperial garden, hurry up!"

"Wow~"

Zhao Guanren turned around abruptly, and took two steps back in shock to scan the crowd. They all trembled in shock, and all stared at him with fear on their faces.

"not good!"

Tianshi Xuanyang suddenly pulled out his bronze sword, and shouted: "Get down! Jin Bao rushed in to take revenge, anyone who has nothing to do with you, get down!"

"Ah~"

The two disciples suddenly screamed and fell out, Master Xuanyang even rolled his eyes and passed out, the crowd exploded with a "buzz", no matter whether they were men or women, they all lay on the ground and screamed.

"Bang~"

Zhao Guanren was also knocked to the ground suddenly, and shouted: "Run, don't let it catch up with you!"

"Don't chase me! I didn't harm you..."

Concubine Liu started running crazily, and the little princess was so frightened that she cried and ran wildly with the two concubines, but Zhao Guanren suddenly jumped up and stopped the little princess, and shouted: "Don't run away, there is no Jin Bao, I'm here scare you!"

"Puff~"

Concubine Liu ate shit and fell to the ground, she turned her head in disbelief, the two concubines also stopped in shock, only four of them ran out of the circle.

"It's ugly!"

Xuanyang Tianshi suddenly stood up from the ground, clasped his hands energetically and said with a smile: "Everyone! Pindao was entrusted by the county prince to perform a play with him. Lime powder is just a trick, and it hasn't arrived at this time." Ziye, just knocked on the clapper ahead of time!"

"..."

Emperor Shun Yao was so angry that he almost jumped up and scolded his mother. He was lying on the ground in embarrassment, almost carrying Tan Qingning on his head, but he immediately jumped up and laughed: "Haha~ you group of smoky things, I knew the harem Your evildoer is you!"

"Your Majesty! Go back..."

Jin Wuming stepped forward with a cold face, and carried back the concubine Liu who was paralyzed on the ground. The other two concubines also looked desperate as if the situation was over.

"Mother Concubine! You, what are you doing? What is Jin Bao's relationship with you..."

Prince Duan was dumbfounded as he sat on the ground, but he didn't know whether he was really stupid or fake, while Zhao Guanren picked up the little princess who was streaming down his face, and sighed, "Oh, it's not good for you to lie to anyone, why did you lie to me? I really thought of marrying you!"

"Woo~ I didn't know that things would become so big, I dare not tell you..."

The little princess cried and said: "I didn't do any sorcery, I just imitated an appearance, and wanted people to find the heads of the queen and prince, but I don't know why their heads disappeared, and the corpses shouldn't be in the dark ditch. I could have found it out once I checked, but someone is hurting me!"

"Damn things!"

Emperor Shun Yao was startled and said angrily: "If you haven't learned sorcery, how would you know what sorcery looks like, and how would you know how to bury your corpse at the poles of yin and yang? If you don't tell the truth, don't blame me for not thinking of family ties!"

"Grandpa! I really haven't learned magic, it's all told by the old queen..."

The little princess knelt on the ground and cried: "She said that the former prince set up an evil formation in the imperial garden and murdered the emperor. You found out in time that you killed the rebellious prince and told me about the yin and yang corpse. I imitated a The appearance of framing the queen is not really engaging in sorcery!"

"Sure enough, it's that old temptress, she's so wicked..."

Emperor Shun Yao looked deeply at Zhao Guanren. Only the two of them knew the secret, but Zhao Guanren squatted down hastily, supported the little princess and asked, "Yongning! Who is the headless female corpse?"

"Someone really killed me, we didn't kill the female corpse..."

The little princess was sobbing and refused to tell the truth, but Zhao Guanren knew at a guess that it was definitely evidence that could kill her father, and once he told it, their family would be ruined.

"Heh~ heh heh..."
