That night, when Shuangxie, Fudozi, and Linghuxiang rushed to Han Yu's house, it was already too late.
They only found a dead body in the study with a frightened face and cold body.
And on the ground next to Han Yu's body, there was an array - it was not the Bagua array, but a strange eight-sided array that looked very evil.
No one knows where Han Yu learned this formation, and there is no way to investigate.
In this way, Han Yu, the powerful young master, was found strangely dead at home in the summer of the 20th year of Yongtai. The cause of death... in our current words, myocardial infarction.
Since Mr. Han did not have any signs of trauma or poisoning on his body, and there were a large number of people who could testify to the "secret room environment" when he died, the case was concluded very quickly. The final statement announced to the public was that he "died due to sudden illness" die".
Han Yu left no children in his life, and his wife died early. However, he had many concubines, most of whom were young and beautiful.
Thinking about it, everyone can guess that these girls, who are very different in age from Han Yu, don't have much affection for Han Yu as a "person". At most, they are quite nostalgic for the luxurious life in the young master's house.
Therefore, none of Han Yu's concubines would stand up and express any doubts about the cause of his death; when they were mourning their master and mourning him, even if some of them were really crying, it was because they were mourning. I feel worried and sad about my future destiny.
Let’s talk about the emperor’s side...
Zhu Qi did not pursue anything further about Han Yu's frame-up of Sun Yixie. After all, everyone was dead. In addition, Han Yu was also the prince's teacher, so preserving his reputation would save a lot of trouble.
Of course, I can save face for you, Lizi, the emperor is not polite to you.
During the years that Han Yu was in the court, he had done everything from selling his official position to seizing titles, deceiving his superiors and concealing his superiors, lining his own pockets, and killing people... Anyway, he had done most of the things that traitors deserved to be punished, so his legacy after his death was worthy of "a great family and a great business". "These four words.
In that age of cannibalism, how could he maintain such a large family fortune with his concubines?
There must be a lot of people eyeing this piece of fat, so instead of it falling into the hands of others, it would be better for the royal family to accept it with a smile.
Therefore, at the emperor's instruction, the task of "settling Han Yu's family and property" was handed over to Yun Shili.
Yun Shili's mission is also very simple: to see if the concubines and servants of his Han family are still decent enough, and arrange for them to live a stable life in the future. It's up to you, Mr. Yun, to deal with it as you please. In short, after everything is settled, it will be a great achievement to hand over all the remaining property to the national treasury.
Even the Great Immortal Jade Tail did not expect that she had been working as a "guardian spirit" with Yun Shili for more than a year, but she had never been able to find a chance to defeat Han Yu. In just a few days after encountering Shuangxie... In a series of incidents that were not directed at him, he self-destructed by mistake.
It can be said——
It is difficult to seek power and commit crimes within a year. People are lucky and God is unlucky. Why is the boat overturned in the gutter? They are all caused by causes and effects.
At this point, Han Yu, as well as the grievances and grievances he was involved in, are considered dead, and people can go and have some tea.
However, the crisis in the capital has not been resolved.
Mr. Han's death is just that Shuang Xie and the others have one less person to cause trouble in front of them, and it is not a victory worth celebrating; for Shuang Xie, this wave is just like "there is a guy who loves to find trouble and comes here on his own." "I blew myself up" almost.
The real powerful enemy they have to face is not Han Yu, but the Thirteen Dead Animals.
At this stage, except for the three animals that were "annihilated": the Monkey, the Ox, and the Rooster, as well as the severely damaged Quail-tailed Snake, the other nine animals are still alive and well.
There is still half a month before the Ghost Festival. If everyone cannot find and eliminate as many dead animals as possible during this period, the situation on the night of the Ghost Festival will become quite dangerous.
When you see this, some people may ask, what exactly will happen on the Hungry Ghost Festival? Could it be that with a master like Fudozi sitting in charge and all kinds of formations, do they still feel unstable?
Yes, it's really unstable.
According to Taoism's "Three Yuan Theory": the Heavenly Official ascends to the Yuan Dynasty to grant blessings, the Earth Official to the Yuan Dynasty forgives sins, and the Water Official to go down to the Yuan Dynasty to relieve misfortune; and on the half day of July, it is the Earth Official who opens the door to hell and lets the ghosts return to heaven. The days of returning to the human world.
According to folklore, on the night of Zhongyuan, ghosts who have family members and descendants will return home to accept sacrifices. Those who do not have ghosts will wander around the world "looking for food."
This is one of the times of the year when the yin energy is at its strongest and the ghosts and monsters are most powerful. Under this climate, even an area like the Forbidden City, whose architectural pattern is like an "enchantment", cannot stop it. Those foreign "things".
If that night, a certain dead animal invades the Fengxian Hall, causes trouble in the royal ancestral hall, and makes the next generation of your royal family have a prince who is the reincarnation of a dead animal, you will say that you will not subjugate the country, right?
Of course, although this kind of situation has happened before in this parallel universe, the number of times is not many. After all, the previous dynasties often had national advisors in charge. Furthermore, the thirteen dead animals rarely broke the seal collectively. …
Generally speaking, only a few of the dead animals will escape according to the weather in certain specific eras... As far as changing dynasties is concerned, these few are enough.
Moreover, the dead animals do not like to cooperate that much. There is also a certain restraint relationship between them, so they almost all work on their own. Even if there are multiple dead animals active outside, they will not choose to stay together.
But this time, due to an "accident", all thirteen escaped and gathered in the capital on the eve of the Chinese Yuan Dynasty.
Obviously, in this peaceful and prosperous age, all these guys want to take advantage of this "Zhongyuan Heavenly Hour" to rush to Fengxian Palace to grab the crown prince... If they can't grab it, they will go their separate ways.
If this really allows them to succeed, even the Imperial Master may not be able to stop Dashu from being destroyed a few years later, because the reincarnated prince is indeed of royal blood, and even if people from the Taoist sect can tell that this is the reincarnation of a dead animal, You can't do anything to him.
Seeing this, I think all readers have probably understood that on the night of the Zhongyuan Dynasty, everyone from the Hunyuan Star Gate, as well as Fudozi, Yandanzi, Liang Jingshuo... were going to have a similar game in the Forbidden City. The defensive battle of "Protecting Athena" can only succeed and cannot fail.
Therefore, in the remaining half of the month, in addition to actively setting up defenses, it is best for them to seize the time to find and "eliminate" a few more dead animals; every time they kill one more dead animal before half July, When defending at night, you will have one less enhanced version to face.
However, I thought that without Han Yu and with the imperial gold medal in hand, the next two things would be very smooth. However, just on the third day after Han Yu's death, he encountered new troubles.
Let’s talk about that day, when Liang Jingxuan was walking peacefully on the street, he had an inexplicable conflict with a monk from the Zhihua Temple in Beijing; both of them said that the other person had a very strong evil spirit and that there was something wrong with him... ...and neither of them wanted to let the other go.
Just like this, the two of them became angry and started fighting in the street.
How nice is it to see these monks quarreling together in the street? Can the common people not watch this excitement? It didn't take long for a crowd of onlookers to gather.
The news soon spread to the ears of everyone at Hunyuan Star Gate and the monks at Zhihua Temple... Both sides also sent their own people to rush to the scene.
This will lead to that - the five heroes in double harmony fight against the seven evil spirits, and the two monks and the three Taoists fight against the four figures.
