Several wizards dressed in black robes and colorful ribbons with strange patterns on their faces came out from all directions. They held straws and a bowl of unknown liquid in their hands. They dipped the straw in the liquid and sprinkled it in turn. On everyone present.

"This is the great wizard invited back from the Western Regions. In order for Princess Huaining to have a quiet and peaceful way home, the great wizard needs to wash away the remaining sins of everyone present." Eunuch Zhou introduced the identities of these wizards to everyone. .

Ye Tantai and his wife frowned at the arrival of this group of wizards. Neither of them had the temperament to believe in such evil ways.

Apparently they were not the only ones dissatisfied.

"I'm not telling you why the emperor's grandfather has been studying these weird witchcraft all day long." The emperor's grandson was obviously unhappy, and his expression when he looked at the wizards was full of disgust.

"Keep your voice down," Lu Xuerou looked serious and stretched out her hand to hit him. "There are a lot of people talking here. If someone overhears it and spreads it to the ears of the emperor's grandfather, it will be no small matter..."

It was not surprising that Su Qingcheng liked the emperor. Emperor Nanye was suspicious by nature and did not trust anyone around him. He spent his whole life searching for the method of immortality. He searched for many witchcraft and secret methods in the world.

That's why she chose to take action on this day...

While she was thinking, several wizards had already walked up to a few people. The Crown Prince and Lu Xuerou were reluctant, but they still stood obediently and let the wizards sweep straws over them.

The wizard muttered certain spells, completely ignoring the identity of the person in front of him, and his actions were very rough.

A piece of straw swept directly into Lu Xuerou's eyes, and the emperor's grandson spoke out and wanted to stop him: "You..."

The great wizard glared back at him fiercely. He felt guilty, but he took back what he was about to say and said, "I hope the wizard will act more gently."

"Everyone else can bear it, why can't she? Unless she is the descendant of the devil!"

The great wizard showed no mercy to the two of them. His dark eyes opened as wide as possible, as if they were about to bulge out. The whites of the eyes were yellow and covered with red bloodshot eyes.

"Wizard, I can bear it." Lu Xuerou noticed that some eyes were already gathering in their direction. In order to avoid more disputes, she could only endure the discomfort and wait for the wizard to end.

Su Qingcheng had a panoramic view of what was going on here not far away. Nowadays, Nanye's atmosphere is declining day by day. A wizard with no official position and unknown birth can be so disrespectful to Nanye's grandson...

It's exactly the same as in the previous life.

"Close your eyes."

The great wizard had already come to the two of them and gave orders coldly. There was an ivory hanging around his neck, indicating his extraordinary status.

Su Qingcheng didn't want to cause a dispute, so she closed her eyes expressionlessly. She didn't notice the sudden change in Ye Tantai's eyes behind him, and the dangerous aura radiating from the inside out.

The great wizard glanced at the two of them contemptuously, and when he saw Ye Tantai, he felt inexplicably frightened. He didn't know the identity of the man in front of him.

The man was dressed in dark blue robes, with an upright posture and a handsome face. He only had a pair of black eyes looking at him. Those eyes were deep and dark, like a cold pool, which made people feel panicked.

There was a voice inside the wizard telling him to stay away from this man.

He swallowed nervously, hinting to himself that this was just an illusion.

Su Qingcheng closed her eyes and her ears were extremely sensitive. She heard the sound of straw being swiped in the bowl, and the sound of the great wizard picking up the straw and shaking it...

Ye Tantai stood imperceptibly close. Although his eyes were closed, for him with extremely deep internal energy, he could use his nose and ears to "see" the things in front of him clearly.

He hid his palms in his sleeves and exerted slight force when the wizard raised his hands. Every ear of rice on the straw deflected in the same direction.

In the past, because of his leg illness, he no longer wanted to show off his peerless martial arts in front of the world. Now that his leg illness has recovered, he can still control his martial arts as freely as before.

The wizard was obsessed with chanting spells and kept moving his hands, but he didn't realize that the wheat ears in his hands didn't even touch the corners of Su Qingcheng's dress.

Su Qingcheng was very confused. After waiting for a long time, she didn't hear the sound of the straw touching her clothes.

"All right."

After hearing the wizard's words, Su Qingcheng opened her eyes. She subconsciously looked at Ye Tantai aside. The man was closer to her than just now, and their arms were almost overlapped.

She looked down and saw that there were no water stains on her clothes at all.

The wizard had already turned around and left, and she asked softly, "Does Your Majesty think this witchcraft is useful?"

"If you believe it, you have it. If you don't believe it, you don't have it." Ye Tantai's answer was very general. He still looked as calm as ever, looking down at the woman affectionately.

His eyes were like deep pools, but just one glance was enough to make people addicted.

Su Qingcheng looked away as if nothing had happened and focused her gaze on the center of the hall. The wizard had finished the so-called work of clearing away the remaining evil, and they all formed circles in front of Princess Huaining's coffin.

The emperor and the empress had serious faces and sat on one side of the coffin, carefully watching the ceremony for Princess Huaining to rest in peace.

The wizard danced and sang, and lingered in front of the coffin for half an hour.

Then they caught a rooster from nowhere, stood in front of the coffin, took out a dagger and cut off the rooster's neck. Blood spurted out from the neck. The wizard took out a bowl to collect the blood.

The scene was so bloody that many concubines and princesses covered their faces and mouths, retching.

The wizard came to the emperor with the bowl of chicken blood.

"Holy Lord, you need to drink this bowl of heavenly gift."

The imperial guard beside the emperor immediately drew his sword and pointed it at the wizard, saying: "Bold! How could the Holy Lord drink such a noble thing!"

He kicked the commander of the Royal Forest Army and roared: "How dare you be so rude to the wizard!"

The commander of the Royal Forest Army knelt on the ground and said: "I understand my mistake, but..."

"No need to say more," the emperor waved his hand impatiently to let him go away. With the help of Eunuch Zhou, he stepped down from the dragon chair and picked up the bowl of chicken blood. "I am the body of a dragon, and this bowl is a gift from heaven. No one can drink from it except me."

He picked up the chicken blood, and the rich and pungent smell rushed into the emperor's brain. He frowned and resisted the desire to vomit.

corner.

"If he drinks it, won't the princess's plan fail?" Ye Tantai looked at the farce in front of him coldly without any expression.

Su Qingcheng said firmly: "He won't drink."

Sure enough, as Su Qingcheng finished speaking, the emperor suddenly became unsteady on his feet, and the chicken blood that had just reached his mouth instantly fell to the ground and flowed freely on the ground.

"Ah, this is a gift from God!" The wizard panicked, as if something big had happened, and their faces turned black and blue.
