Nine thousand years old [rebirth]

During the chaos, Concubine Wen Gui was quickly invited out.

On the other hand, Master Ziyuan was hurriedly invited over from the Xuanqiong Palace.He won the trust of Emperor Longfeng, and he was carried here by the sedan chair. After getting out of the sedan chair, he straightened his clothes, shook his wide sleeves, and walked into the Qianqing Palace in a fairy-like manner.

When Emperor Longfeng saw him, his cloudy and old eyes flashed brightly. He just thought about what the imperial physician said, and he didn't dare to have too much emotional ups and downs. He only took a deep breath, but his eyes were fixed on Zi Yuan.

Master Ziyuan walked a few steps in front of the dragon couch, counted for a long time with his eyes downcast, and then said solemnly: "There is an evil spirit in the palace, Your Majesty is haunted by the evil spirit."

It really is Concubine Wen!He pityed him for a while, but instead he was haunted by evil spirits. Emperor Longfeng's eyes showed hatred and remorse.

It is true that he loves Concubine Wen Gui, this woman has been with him for many years, no matter in appearance or character, she is very suitable for him, and the bed is even more charming.Moreover, she does not have a strong mother's family. Even if she has a son, she can only cling to him firmly, and he can pamper her without any worries.

There have been so many beauties in the harem over the years, but none of them suit him as much as Concubine Wen Gui.

So he is willing to indulge this woman.

But the premise is that this indulgence won't affect him!

Since the last time he stayed in bed for a long time, Emperor Longfeng paid special attention to his body. He was fed up with the feeling of weakness. After he recovered from his illness, he didn't even invite beautiful women to sleep with him. He only practiced Taoism with Master Ziyuan every day. , taking the pills, I managed to recover a little bit of energy, but now it's all ruined!

Thinking of the possibility of apoplexy that the imperial physician said, Emperor Longfeng felt endless panic spread in his heart. He struggled and raised his finger to point to the door, hissing: "Concubine Wen Gui, Jingren Palace!"

Immortal Ziyuan got his advice, and was soon led to Jingren Palace to investigate.

After half an hour, he just turned back.

Emperor Longfeng had already used the decoction at this time, although his body was still weak, he was not as weak as before. He leaned sickly on the pillow and asked eagerly: "What can the real person see?"

Master Ziyuan nodded, with a look of compassion: "There are evil spirits hovering above Jingren Palace, and the imperial concubine is even more bloody... I am afraid that there may be unresolved karma."

"Maybe expel?" Emperor Longfeng asked.

"It's enough to set up a dojo and do a ritual. It's just that the evil spirits are easy to get rid of, and the karma is hard to solve." Zi Yuan hesitated for a while, but said bluntly: "Your Majesty's body has not yet recovered and he was hit again. Before the karma is lifted, it's best not to get too... close."

Emperor Longfeng's face turned red and then turned pale when he heard it, and he felt very regretful in his heart.

"Then there will be Mr. Lao."

With Emperor Longfeng's order, Immortal Ziyuan soon had someone set up a dojo altar in front of Jingren Palace.

Because of this incident, the haunting of Jingren Palace could not be suppressed completely, and rumors spread wildly.Many rumors spread in the palace, saying that the eunuch who poisoned and murdered the queen was actually sent by Concubine Wen Gui, and the dead palace maid Fei Cui was actually silenced.

Otherwise, why did Jingren Palace become haunted just after these two people died?

Concubine Wen Gui stayed in Jingren Palace, Emperor Longfeng decreed that her feet were forbidden, and she was not allowed to leave Jingren Palace until the ritual was finished.

Those uproarious rumors in the palace were spread to her ears by the female officer who served her personally, and when she hated her teeth, an unspeakable panic rose from the bottom of her heart.

She suddenly had an inexplicable feeling, as if she had stepped into the mud, and she couldn't help but sink deeper and deeper.

The date of exorcising evil spirits was set three days later, and it was said that it was the day with the highest yang energy selected by Master Ziyuan, which was the most suitable day for exorcising evil spirits.

The day of the ceremony was a rare sunny day.The sun, which hadn't appeared for a long time, came out from the thick clouds. Although it was still cold in the winter, it shone warmly on the body.

On the square in front of Jingren Palace, Emperor Longfeng and the Empress sat side by side, with the concubines and palace people accompanying them to watch the ceremony behind them.

On the Dharma altar in the center of the square, Zi Yuan, who is wearing a gossip costume, holds a mahogany sword and steps on Tiangang steps, and performs the ritual of exorcising evil spirits while muttering words.

As the master of Jingren Palace, Concubine Wen Gui, who was "ridden by karma", was forced to sit on the altar and chant sutras to get rid of darkness.

Her lowered gaze swept across the faces under the altar that couldn't hide the gloating face, and she clenched her teeth in humiliation.

However, this is not the most embarrassing situation.

Just when Master Ziyuan was halfway through the practice, thick dark clouds suddenly gathered, covering the sunny day, and the bright sky darkened within a short while, as if a storm was about to come.

There was the faint sound of billowing thunder in the dark clouds.

The sudden change in the weather made everyone present feel a little panicked. The master Zi Yuan said "not good" in a deep voice, and immediately bit his finger, smearing blood on the mahogany sword, and his steady footwork became hasty.

Almost at the same time, there was a sudden thunderclap in the sky——

Master Ziyuan knelt down on one knee as if he couldn't bear the heavy pressure, and suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood!

He looked up at the dark clouds gathering above his head, and murmured, "How can there be such strong resentment?"

This sudden scene shocked everyone, Emperor Longfeng got up abruptly and said anxiously: "What happened?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me, this evil spirit's resentment is too strong, I'm afraid it's...not enough." In just one sentence, Master Zi Yuan spoke out of breath.

"Where is the evil spirit so tyrannical?" Emperor Longfeng was anxious and afraid.

"A man and a woman become yin and yang, mutually reinforcing each other. I am afraid that there is unresolved hatred, so the resentment is amazing."

The emperor's face was ugly, and when he was about to ask "what to do", he saw a man kneeling in front of Jingren Palace suddenly shouting in panic: "I didn't kill you! It wasn't me!"

Seeing that she was dressed as a female official of Jingren Palace, she seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying, and she was about to run away: "It's not me! It's the order of the empress, and it has nothing to do with me!"

In the silence, her voice was particularly sharp.

Emperor Longfeng's complexion darkened, and he ordered unhappily: "Bring me over here."

Xue Shu, who was serving at the side, gave him a look, and two Jinyi guards immediately escorted him over.The female officer was still struggling endlessly, and she was still yelling wildly. When she was pushed to kneel on the ground, her body shook like chaff: "I don't want to kill you, and I don't want to...don't come to me..."

Emperor Longfeng's expression was already extremely displeased, Xue Shu caught a glimpse of his expression, and approached him wisely to interrogate him and asked, "Who did your empress ask you to kill?"

"Emerald." The female officer's face was paper-colored.

Fei Cui was the dead Jingren Palace maid.

"Why did your empress ask you to kill Fei Cui?" Xue Shu continued to persuade.

The thunder in the sky has not stopped yet, the female officer seems to be frightened mad, and said incoherently: "Because Jade is Wang Shi's counter-food, Wang Shi is dead, and Jade has to die too. The empress said, they are all going to die!"

Wang Shi was the eunuch who poisoned the pastry.

When asked here, some things are self-evident.

Xue Shu stopped asking questions, but looked at Emperor Longfeng with a gloomy complexion inquiringly: "Your Majesty?"

Emperor Longfeng didn't see much surprise on his face. He glanced coldly at Concubine Wen Gui on the altar, and before she could speak, he turned to Master Ziyuan, who was meditating and adjusting his breath: "Can this evil spirit be eliminated?"

Master Ziyuan said: "The resentment is too strong, you have to dissolve it first. The bones of the two people also need to find a place to suppress it, otherwise the resentment will grow and the consequences will be disastrous."

Emperor Longfeng was silent for a moment, looked at Xue Shu and said, "I will leave this matter to you."

Xue Shu bowed his head and waved to Jin Yiwei, and the female officer was taken down.

As for Concubine Wen Gui... she was still confined in the Jingren Palace before the matter was completely settled.

Dongchang was very efficient in handling affairs. The female officials and eunuchs around Concubine Wen Gui all went to the prison for a while, and they didn't see any torture on their bodies, but they all looked like gold paper and angry.

Concubine Wen Gui, who was confined to Jingren Palace, lost her eyes, eyes and claws, like a wild animal whose eyes had been gouged out and its claws cut off. She could only struggle in vain and anxiously wait for her end.

She desperately recalled, when did this trap start?

Did it start from the moment she stepped into the Qianqing Palace?

wrong!It should be that since Jingren Palace was haunted by ghosts, she stepped into the trap set by the enemy and couldn't get out.

She didn't even know when the female official who came out to identify on the day of the ceremony was bribed.

This can't be the work of that trash Yin Ciguang, it's the prince!

Only he has the ability.

Concubine Wen Gui gritted her teeth with hatred. She tried her best to see the emperor, but if the emperor was willing to see her and aroused a little pity, he would not have the heart to blame her too much.

But now the guards guarding Jingren Palace are all Xue Shu's people, no matter how much money she throws out, it is like a mud cow falling into the sea, without any response.

But in just three days, the whole case was sorted out clearly and plainly, and it was compiled into a book and presented to Emperor Longfeng.

The eunuch Wang Shi and the court lady Fei Cui are from the same hometown. After entering the palace, they take care of each other and love each other, so they secretly get married.When the two of them had a tryst outside the Jingren Palace, they were smashed by the female officer next to Concubine Wen Gui, and the matter was brought to Concubine Wen Gui's face.

Concubine Wen Gui did not deal with the two of them immediately, but instead took a fancy to Wang Shi's identity.

She threatens Fei Cui's life and asks Wang Shi to work for her.Although Wang Shi didn't fall into the eyes of Emperor Longfeng, he was serving in Qianqing Palace, and his size was also useful, and occasionally he would accompany him to serve.

On the day when Concubine Rong was poisoned, Concubine Wen Guifei learned that Empress Yu and Concubine Rong had gone to the banana garden to enjoy the scenery, so she specially invited Emperor Longfeng to play near the banana garden. Empress Yu and Concubine Rong in Jiaoyuan.So Emperor Longfeng gave two plates of pastries, and the person who sent them was Wang Shi.

Threatened by Concubine Wen Gui, Wang Shi poisoned one of the dishes of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, intending to murder the queen.

Concubine Wen Gui promised Wang Shi that if he committed suicide afterwards, he would let Fei Cui go.

After the incident, Wang Shi really committed suicide in fear of crime, but Concubine Wen Gui did not keep her promise. Two days later, she ordered her confidant female officer to strangle Jade to death and throw it into the dry well of the cold palace.

Murdering the empress, spying on the emperor, disregarding human life... The crimes listed one after another, Concubine Wen Gui's crimes are unforgivable.

"The tomb of the repression has been explored, and the bones of Wang Shi and Fei Cui will be moved there in a few days." Xue Shu stood in front of the couch, his tone was unhurried, without any bias: "What should Concubine Wen Gui do with it?"

According to Master Ziyuan, to resolve the grievances of Yin and Yang, the culprit must be punished.

Emperor Longfeng hesitated, the word "kill" stuck in his throat, and he couldn't vomit it out for a long time.

When he was stalked by evil spirits, of course he hated Concubine Wen Gui, but when he really wanted to kill her, he couldn't bear it.And without Concubine Wen Gui, wouldn't the harem be dominated by the queen alone?

Just when Emperor Longfeng was having a hard time making a choice, the previous dynasty uncovered the past of the Wen family.

Emperor Longfeng was most jealous of his relatives being in the imperial family, so Concubine Wen Gui's mother's family was not prominent, so she only got a glamorous title, but she had no real power in the court.Over the years, the Wen family has been favored by imperial concubines in the palace, and they have no ability to commit major crimes, but they have committed small crimes such as forcibly occupying women, occupying land, and lending usury.

In the past, no one dared to take care of them, but now they have been dug out one by one and joined the imperial court.

However, the more people participated in the performance, the more hesitant Emperor Longfeng became, and he was still undecided.

And at this moment, news of the funeral came from Yongxi Palace—Concubine Rong died.

After being hanged for so long by the imperial medicine's precious medicine, she couldn't hold on.

When Yin Chengyu heard the news and rushed to Yongxi Palace, there were already palace people confiscating Concubine Rong's body.Yin Ciguang knelt in front of the couch with a blank expression.

Yin Chengyu called him, but he didn't seem to hear it, there was no wave in his eyes, and his whole body was depressed.

His throat suddenly choked, and he walked around, but Concubine Rong didn't survive.

In the previous life, both mother and son were wronged and died. Their names were full of stigma, and even their names became taboos in the palace.Seeing the end of the hard days in this life, hope is broken before my eyes.

Fate was too ruthless, he didn't know which ending would be more cruel to Yin Ciguang.

"I will never let Concubine Wen Gui go." Any comfort was too weak at this moment, Yin Chengyu was silent for a long time, and could only give such a promise.

Yin Ciguang's eyes flickered, he turned around slowly, and suddenly asked him: "Did I do something wrong?"

"What?" Yin Chengyu didn't know what he was asking.

Yin Ciguang didn't seem to need an answer, he stood up and staggered towards the outside of the hall.

This year's winter has been extremely long and cold, and the wind is howling before March.

The wind filled his loose robes, and Yin Ciguang raised his head and looked at the gloomy sky for a long time, looking like a ghost.

His mother taught him to be patient since he was a child.

People with low status are not favored, so they have to be tolerant; men disguise themselves as women every day for fear of being exposed, so they have to be tolerant; Concubine Wen Gui is arrogant and domineering and targets her everywhere, so she has to be tolerant...

The four high walls of the palace were like a mouth full of blood. He and his mother lived in it tremblingly, not daring to fight or grab it, so they could only swallow their anger and live with difficulty.

It's not that he didn't hate and complain, but his mother always said that it would be fine when he grew up, and that it would be fine to bear it.

He believed it, he really thought everything would be fine.

The fact is that fate gave him a slap in the face when he was at his best, telling him that he would always be an ant in the high walls of this deep palace, and that life, death, honor and disgrace were controlled by others.

His body trembled slightly, Yin Ciguang gritted his teeth, his eyes were red, but he didn't shed a single tear.

He looked down at his hands, which were too pale to protect his mother.

He slowly clenched into a fist, sinking his fingertips into his palm.

The funeral of Concubine Rong was very grand, and all the specifications followed the imperial concubine's ritual system.

He was not favored during his lifetime, but full of honor and honor after death.

Probably out of compensatory psychology, after the funeral, Emperor Longfeng ordered Yin Ciguang to be King An, and he went to the Ministry of Households for a rotation - the old rule of the Dayan royal family, the prince gave the ceremony of the weak crown before he was crowned king.Although Yin Ciguang was the biggest among the several princes, he hadn't performed the ceremony of the weak crown yet, this time being crowned king was considered an exception.

As for Concubine Wen Gui, it is an unforgivable crime for her to count the crimes and punish her, but after several considerations by Emperor Longfeng, he finally failed to kill the woman he once loved. Into the limbo.

However, in just half a month, the situation in the former court and the harem has changed.

After Yin Ciguang became king, he was going to officially move into Prince An's Mansion—his mansion had been under renovation a few years ago, and it is now ready for occupancy.

On the day he left the palace, he went to Ciqing Palace to bid farewell.

When Zheng Duobao led him to the Hongren Palace, he felt that the taciturn eldest prince in the past looked more and more lonely now, like a deep well, all emotions sank to the bottom, and he lost his vitality.

He sighed twice in his heart, and led him into the hall before he retreated.

Yin Chengyu heard Tong Chuan welcome him out, looked at his expression, tried his best to be the same as before and said: "I thought there were a lot of things to do to move the house today, and I thought I would go to the palace to ask for tea in a few days, but I didn't expect the emperor to come first."

"In the past, my concubine and I took care of His Highness a lot. Today I came here to tell His Highness that I don't believe the rumors outside, and neither can Your Highness."

Yin Ciguang was dressed in plain clothes, without much sadness on his face, he spoke calmly and slowly, as if he had come out of the pain of losing his mother.

Never thought that he came here on purpose to say such a thing, Yin Chengyu was slightly taken aback.

"After I sort out my mood, I will invite His Highness to drink tea." Yin Ciguang said.

Yin Chengyu looked at him, trying to find something in his eyes, but found nothing.

He paused and said "OK" in a gentle voice.

After finishing what he wanted to say, Yin Ciguang took his leave and left.Yin Chengyu sent him to the door, and when he turned to leave, he whispered, "The guards around the Leng Palace have all withdrawn."

Yin Ciguang's footsteps paused slightly, and he continued to move forward without looking back.

After walking a long distance, he just looked back.A crimson figure came out of the hall and stood side by side with Yin Chengyu.Although the posture is not too intimate, there is an atmosphere that others cannot penetrate.The two bowed their heads and said a few words, then turned around and entered the hall together.

Yin Ciguang stopped and stared for a moment, then turned and left.

Xian Qingshan has thoughts, Baihe forgets the machine.

God was stingy to him, he couldn't be his fellow traveler after all.
