The Devil's Coming [Quick Transmigration]

On the second floor of Zuiyun Tower, in a private room adjacent to Su Ying, a group of people were discussing the Second Prince's Mansion.

"Is it really haunted?"

"... How could it be false? Several servants saw with their own eyes that the Second Prince's wife was possessed by an evil ghost."

"The Second Prince wanted to block the news, but unfortunately, such a thing could not be concealed at all. I heard that the Second Prince's wife's personal maid wanted to save the master, but was beaten to death by the evil ghost on the spot!"

The sound of gasping for air suddenly rang out in the private room.

Some people also put forward different opinions: "I haven't heard of anyone being possessed by evil ghosts in those haunted places before. I think this matter is strange. It may not be the work of evil ghosts, right?" As he said, the man pointed in the direction of the Second Prince's Mansion, "Who doesn't know the temper of the Second Prince's wife? Rather than saying that the evil ghost possessed and beat people to death, it is better to say..."

The tone of the person who spoke was somewhat sarcastic.

"——There has never been any evil ghost."

When he said this, everyone couldn't help but agree.

"That makes sense. Even if there is no evil ghost, I don't think that person can do such a thing."

"Thinking back then, Miss Mingyue of Hongxiu Tower was redeemed by the second prince and returned to the mansion less than two months ago, she died of illness..." The person who spoke was full of regret and a little indignant, "I don't believe there is nothing strange about this!"

"That's why I think this time it's really haunted." Someone shook his folding fan, "With the status and temperament of the second prince's wife, there is really no need to pretend to be ghosts. Those things in the past were never pretended to be ghosts. This time, it's just a maid who died, so why pretend to be ghosts?"

As he spoke, the man's tone became more meaningful: "——Once some things are related to ghosts and gods, it will be troublesome."

The royal family is more taboo than others, and it is easy to make use of ghosts. Even if the Second Prince's wife used ghosts as an excuse, the Second Prince would not allow it.

The people who were originally listing the Second Prince's wife's past misdeeds and mocking her stupid and vicious methods were immediately shocked and couldn't help trembling when speaking.

"So, is there really a ghost looking for the Second Prince's mansion?"

"If you do too many bad things, it is reasonable for evil ghosts to come to your door!"

"But, after all, it is the prince's mansion, where the dragon energy is, how can the demons and ghosts be unrestrained? Didn't it say in ancient times that dragon energy and official energy can overcome ghosts..."

"Eh? Is there such a saying?" A hand suddenly rested on the shoulder of the person who spoke silently, and then a head suddenly popped out from behind him. Under the dark long hair winding down like a dark cloud, a smiling face of a young man was revealed. He blinked curiously, "Useless but interesting knowledge has increased. Can you tell me in detail?" ! ! !

Just when they were discussing the topic of evil spirits, Su Ying's sudden attack really frightened people. The person whose shoulder he put his hand on almost stiffened and almost jumped up. Others stared with eyes wide open, looking at the red-dressed boy who suddenly appeared from behind him as if they had seen a ghost.

The people who were almost scared out of their wits were like frozen statues, motionless for a few breaths. The lucky person who encountered the "evil spirit behind the back" at close range finally calmed down his rapid heartbeat. The culprit had walked away from him as if nothing had happened and sat on an empty chair.

Everyone's eyes moved with him, and someone swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Xu, Xu Shizi... So it's you, you are also interested in this matter?"

"Well, can't I?"

Su Ying looked back with a smile, and in each pair of eyes, he saw displeasure, disgust, resistance, resentment... and a faint fear that even the owner himself did not notice.

Before this, most of the eyes looking at him were contempt or pity. Even in the eyes that tried to please him, there was contempt hidden, as if saying "If it weren't for the Duke of Wei's Mansion, how could they please someone like you?" But now, after receiving the imperial plaque, and after the "Secrets of Shangjing" spread throughout Shangjing and even beyond Shangjing, a group of court officials' reputations were ruined and their futures were cut off. Now that almost all officials in the court regarded the Duke of Wei's Mansion as an enemy, those who originally despised and pitied him now felt fear in their anger.

Su Ying's smiling gaze made everyone fidget, and they felt that the chairs under them were hot.

——Who made this Duke of Wei so crazy?

Jingzhao Yinzhong and the Duke of Wei's Mansion reconciled, and a group of people who sincerely gave gifts, the Duke of Wei's son wrote them into the storybook right after he accepted the gifts; people who had been friends with the Duke of Wei's Mansion for many years and stood in the same camp could not escape the storybook, and were stabbed in the back by the Duke of Wei for no reason, turning friends into enemies; and people in the opposing camp, not to mention... In just two months, this Duke of Wei's son became famous in Shangjing, and attracted the hatred of all the court officials and nobles.

The most outrageous thing is that the Duke of Wei's Mansion seemed to not care about the hidden dangers of offending all officials at all, and actually indulged this country boy. The emperor also praised him and rewarded him every now and then, as if he really regarded him as a well-behaved nephew, at least, more favored by the emperor than the three adopted princes.

With the emperor's attitude, the three princes were also very friendly to the Duke of Wei's son. No matter what they thought deep in their hearts, they actively approached the emperor and the Duke of Wei's Mansion on the surface.

No matter how unwilling the many courtiers with full hatred were, they targeted the Duke of Wei one after another, but they could never find much evidence of guilt. As for some trivial incidents, Emperor Huiming directly acted like he was partial to others - Of course, they were the ones who listened to the rumors, and the Duke of Wei was the one who was believed by the emperor.

They can only continue to secretly think of ways to cause trouble for the Xu family, and at the same time activate the spiritual victory method, secretly laughing: Wei Guogong has been wise for half his life, but now he is so confused! These courtiers and nobles should be in the same camp, but the other side is acting as the emperor's lackey. Do they really think that with Emperor Huiming's favor, they can have no taboos? Not to mention whether Emperor Huiming was really favoring the Duke of Wei, or whether he was using him as a sword. After Emperor Huiming is gone, the Xu family's current prosperity will become retribution!

Oh, just wait!

But no matter what the future holds, they really have nothing to do with Su Ying now. Instead, they can only watch the Duke of Wei walking sideways in Shangjing City, arrogant beyond measure.

Even though this man was not an evil ghost, the expressions on the faces of the people in the private room were even more terrifying when they saw him than when they saw an evil ghost.

Fight with him, lest you follow in the footsteps of Xue Ji and others; try to win over him, don't say they are unwilling, just say that this person took the sugar-coated, accepted the gift, and tried to please him, but then used the back foot to please others. When I write it down in my storybook... I can't even burn bridges across rivers so quickly. It's too unscrupulous.

No matter how you look at it, this is a troublesome figure. But this trouble is right in front of them.

Everyone did not dare to ignore him, so they all glanced at the organizer of the party. When the friends looked at him, the other party had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Look, aren't we confused? The prince runs a bookstore and publishes story books. , must be interested in such rumors, in fact we just heard some things about the Second Prince's Mansion..."

In order to invite Su Ying, the giant Buddha, away, they decisively sold the Second Prince's Mansion. Anyway, even they knew about the haunting. Even if the Second Prince's Mansion was blocked, sooner or later it would spread. This made them more confident. .

The so-called haunting came from the second prince and concubine.

Over the past few days, the second princess often woke up in the middle of the night, confused, crazy, scratching and beating randomly. At first, she just screamed that there were ghosts around her. There were invisible ghosts everywhere. When she was emotional, she would beat the invisible monsters around her. She had a ghost that would huddle in the corner and tremble when she was depressed. Even the doctor could not cure her, and the servants in the mansion secretly suspected that she was haunted by something unclean.

As time went by, her condition became more and more serious. Sometimes she would have an attack, as if she was possessed by an evil spirit. After she woke up, even she herself did not know what had happened. The servants who served her became more and more frightened. Finally, someone I couldn't help but reveal it while having a drink with my fellow countrymen, so the news that the Second Prince's Mansion had been sealed off for more than ten days could no longer be concealed.

In the past, what happened in the Second Prince's Mansion was just an isolated case, but during this period, there were many rumors of hauntings in Beijing, and many people died because of it, which made the listeners immediately connect them together. Grouped into one category.

As for the second prince's concubine not dying like the others, maybe it's because the royal family is different from mortals and has the blessing of dragon energy, right?

In the lobby of the restaurant, a drunken scholar slapped the table and sighed loudly. His voice was heard even on the second floor: "... there are frequent traitors in the court, and wild ghosts are causing trouble. I don't know when the capital became so restless. !”

A group of descendants of "treacherous ministers" in the private room: "..."

The innocent person who was cueed went to the capital: "..."

Su exposes the treacherous minister, the messenger of justice, and the mastermind behind the resurrection of the ghost. Shang Jing is the culprit of unrest. Ying: "Eh?"

He pondered for a second, then slapped the table and stood up: "That's right, before I came here, I thought that the Imperial Capital of Da Qi must be the most stable, prosperous, and desirable place in the world."

The others immediately looked at him silently: ... Why is there no peace in Shangjing? The "Secrets of Shangjing" that causes trouble every day accounts for at least 50% of the factors. Don't you have any self-knowledge at all?

At the third watch, the sound of the clock broke the soft night, and a woman's scream came from the corner of the backyard of the Second Prince's Mansion.

"Get out of here, get out of here, don't come here, get out of here!"

"Someone, come quickly, protect me!"

"I'm going to kill you, kill you!"

"Death! Die to me! I can kill you the first time, but I can kill you the second time!"

No matter how the woman's voice rose and fell, the yard was still dark and empty without a single person. And outside the locked courtyard door was the maidservant who looked panic-stricken.

Not long after, a woman's frightened voice came from inside, knocking on the door: "Ghost! There is a ghost! Help me! Let me out!"

The maids and chambermaids outside looked at each other with expressionless faces, and respectfully repeated the second prince's original words: "My dear, be patient, there are no ghosts, you are sick..."

"I'm not crazy, I'm not crazy! Let me out, bitch, I'm going to kill you-"

"His Highness said, guard the courtyard and don't worry about anything. It will be fine as soon as dawn comes." The second prince's personal attendant came in a hurry and left again, as if just to convey the instructions and see if they followed him. You can do it.

Everyone quickly bowed their heads in response. Afterwards, the place fell into silence for a long time, and there was no response to the woman in the yard. Only the chaotic female voice stirred in the night.

The people standing outside were quiet and silent. Amidst the increasingly crazy curses, the corners of their mouths rose silently.

Paired with their stiff, respectful and expressionless faces, this scene was like a silent and terrifying puppet show.
