Huamo

Chapter 156

Gu Qingyin seemed to be able to hear Lian Heng's words.

Lian Heng couldn't help but raised the corners of his mouth, showing a smile as bright as the sun shining, he carried Yunli back to the room, the ancient nanmu door was slowly closed, and the spring breeze was blowing all over the floor.The promise of staying in love and staying together will eventually come true, just like iris and red sandalwood have experienced millions of years of twins, love is like seeing you for the first time, never forget the original heart, never forget the deep affection.

Why live with each other, why die with each other, why worry about parting.Why risk your life, why don't you know each other, why don't you love each other.

Accompany the king to stay with each other, Xu Jun will accompany him to death, and I will never leave my promise.He spared his life for Qing, Fu Qing knew each other and fell in love with Qing Nuo.

a few days later.

Not long after midnight, the sound of the beating watch seems to be still lingering in the southern suburbs, lingering on the ruins of King Jing's Mansion for a long time, lingering and refusing to disperse.It has been nearly ten days since the King's Mansion was destroyed, and Yan Bo ordered to level the original site of King Jing's Mansion and rebuild it into a post station in the southern suburbs.

"Hurry up, hurry up, don't even think about resting tonight!" the overseer shouted harshly, his voice echoing in the empty ruins, which made the coolies feel chilling.

At this time, a slave ran over in a panic, his face pale and frightening under the light of the torch, and sweat was all over his face.He stumbled over and almost knocked the supervisor down, and was immediately scolded: "Don't you have eyes?! Or do you think you live too long?!"

The man's eyes were still wide open, his expression was terrified, and his tone was trembling: "Report, report to the supervisor... There are ghosts... There are ghouls..."

"What the hell? Say it clearly!"

"A ghoul...a walking corpse..."

"What a mess!"

"It's, it's inside..." He pointed at the ruins of Prince Jing's Mansion, "It seems...it's the ghosts in the Palace... Several of us...were all killed..."

Just as he was pointing, a hoarse scream suddenly came out from the palace, followed by the voices of the workers one after another.

"Wh... who is it?!" The supervisor shouted: "Quick, the guards go in and have a look!"

The drowsy guard immediately picked up the guy and rushed into the ruins, while the head guard kept urging the other guards not to be lazy.

One after another, the screams have not stopped since the guards entered, like waves after waves, pouring into the overseer and the surviving guy who have been standing tremblingly outside the mansion.With pale faces, they stared closely at the unknown darkness, as if their bodies were nailed to the ground and could not move.

Until the voice quieted down, the night returned to peace, and no one walked out of the ruins of Prince Jing's Mansion.

"Run... run!"

The two desperadoes yelled, and ran outside in a staggered manner, leaving a strange darkness behind.

What they couldn't see was that black blood gradually left behind on the plaque of Prince Jing's Mansion, gradually staining the engraving that should have been luxurious and dignified: Gongsun Dahua's life should end in 500 years.

The next day

"Bewitching words to confuse people, monster words to confuse people!"

Yan Bo angrily threw the minister's memorial to the ground, trembling all over, his face distorted, startled Gongsun Ke who was sitting on the dragon chair, woke up from his lethargy, and watched all this with big gray eyes.

"What is the wronged soul of King Jing and Lu Shizi, what is 'Gongsun Dahua's life should be terminated in 500 years', it is simply absurd!" Yan Bo shouted angrily: "What the hell did those guards do?!"

"My lord," Huang Tao was also sweating coldly: "I went to check in person in the morning. On the unburned plaque in King Jing's Mansion, this line of words was indeed written in blood. But...but the strange thing is that the work of those guards No one is seen, no dead body is seen..."

"Ridiculous!" Yan Bo yelled, "They must be soldiers and horses conspiring to rebel, deliberately playing this show to sway the hearts of the people!"

"And, moreover... that bloody character cannot be erased, even if I try my best..."

"Master Yan," Ling Tun said before Yan Bo began to scold, "The news has spread all over Bian Ling, and the people are terrified, saying that Dahua's strength is exhausted..."

"Shut up!" Yan Bo interrupted: "Your Majesty is young, how can you make threats like this!"

But seeing Gongsun Ke's pale face, his head was blank under the silent waiting of the officials, and it took him a while to force himself to calm down. Maybe he had grown up a little, but his little head still wanted to maintain the emperor's position. demeanor.

But seeing him speak slowly: "Everyone, what else have you discovered..."

Huang Tao immediately said: "Your Majesty, I found the supervisor and a slave who survived last night, and the latter also saw the so-called 'ghoul' with his own eyes."

"Let them come up." Yan Bo frowned.

I saw the guards brought up the two trembling people, one of them was the supervisor, his face was like paper, he knelt down with a plop and said: "Qi, Your Majesty, I supervised the work last night, and suddenly someone came to report the situation in the ruins. Haunted, even the guards are gone after entering..."

"Have you ever seen that wight with your own eyes?"

"My, I'm not, but this, he..." said the overseer, pointing to the dull-looking slave.

The slave seemed to have been so frightened that he lost his mind, until the guards at the side pushed him and said: "Q... Your Majesty... That ghoul is a walking dead... Can hold a knife... Can kill people..."

"Are you sure you saw it with your own eyes?" Yan Bo snapped.

"Don't dare to lie..."

Gongsun Ke held the dragon chair tightly with his small hands, and said timidly: "How many ghouls are there?"

"Many... groups... They say they are the souls of the dead from 500 years ago... Now Dahua is exhausted... wanting to claim his life..."

"It's nonsense." Yan Bo said coldly: "My great glory has been flourishing for thousands of years, how come I have exhausted my vitality? You must be a daredevil sent by the rebels!"

"Wrong...wrong..."

"What is the origin of this slave?"

The officer supervising the jailer replied: "This man is a businessman in Bian Ling. He killed people because of a debt dispute with others. The slaves who worked in King Jing's mansion last night were all prisoners on death row who were about to be beheaded."

"Sure enough." Yan Bo said with a smile, "You bastards of your family and country are not willing to be punished by Dahua, and you even have the idea of ​​hurting nature and justice. You should give everyone a hand and punish them!"

"No... the grassroots did not lie!" The slave became excited: "Those ghouls have blue eyes, and their bodies are as white as paper. They all hold weapons, and they say they are dead souls, dead souls!!"

Gongsun Ke's face was pale, with fine beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, and his gray eyes were full of panic.Hearing this, his blood coagulated, almost turning into a stone statue, and his mind went blank.

"Put it down and behead it immediately!" Yan Bo ordered loudly, and the slave was forced out by the guards, still yelling nonsense.

And the supervisor still knelt on the ground in panic, looking at Yan Bo tremblingly at a loss.

Yan Bolang said: "Listen up, all ministers, those who want to plot rebellion now intend to confuse the people and disturb the hearts of the people. Therefore, from now on, all the troops in the capital area will be on standby. All the generals in charge must be on high alert to protect His Majesty's safety!"

All the ministers knelt down one after another and obeyed the regent king who was under one man and over ten thousand people.

Seeing this, Yan Bo turned back satisfied, and said to Gongsun Ke, who was still looking miserable, "Your Majesty, don't panic. This matter is nothing more than rebellion against bandits. Dahua has had such disturbances since ancient times. We just need to strengthen our defenses and use our troops to suppress them."

Gongsun Ke looked at him with a relaxed expression.

"What else is there for Your Majesty? If you have nothing to do, you can leave the court." Yan Bo said as if he didn't see anything.

"Retreat—"

The officials scattered like birds and beasts, and the hall of Qinzheng was empty.

【Imperial Palace Siting Hall】

The blue sky was clear and flawless, perfectly reflected in Li Jinsha's pupils. In the past ten days, he waited in front of the window again and again, and came back disappointed again and again, and finally understood the feeling of looking through the autumn water.

What Gongsun said was absolutely true, and he was just a key son in the power struggle between father and son, let him be manipulated, and in the end he was so stupid that he couldn't help himself.Maybe Gongsun Lu has already returned to the grassland of the Xiongnu, found his rich biological mother, and is still happy and romantic outside the territory of Dahua.

Even so, he still stubbornly stood in front of the window day after day, trying to see the letter from Asuka from the untraceable sky, as if this generation would wait so long until he became a stubborn stone statue. No complaints or regrets.

A knock on the door brought him back to reality: "Admiral Li, Your Majesty is here."

I don't know when, Gongsun Ke's arrival has become very natural, and there is no longer the pretending emperor, but it is just an ordinary report.

Hearing that the footsteps were getting closer, but not in the usual rush, he turned around with some doubts.

The door opened suddenly, and the extremely pale face he saw at the first sight was reflected on the young and immature face of the dragon.But seeing the other party stumbling towards him, he grabbed his sleeve: "What to do... what to do..."

"What's wrong, Your Majesty?" Li Jinsha helped him sit down and asked.

Those gray eyes were full of fear, but Wen trembled and said: "Jing Wang's mansion is haunted... There are ghouls who want to destroy Dahua..."

Li Jinsha was puzzled, and kept asking what happened, but Gongsun Ke still couldn't answer clearly.Then it was Xiao Guizi who came up and told the story of today's court in a complete way.His heart trembled when he heard it, and the premonition that had been lurking all along seemed to surface now, coming to him with incomparable clarity.

Gongsun Ke held onto his sleeve robe tightly, and said in a panic, "I don't believe Yanbo...there must be a corpse...there must be a ghost who wants to destroy Dahua..."

"There are no ghosts and gods, Your Majesty, don't talk nonsense." Li Jinsha planned to calm his emotions first, and said: "Although Mr. Yan is radical, there is some truth in what he said. Your Majesty should respond now."
