The next day, when the sky was still dark, there were screams one after another from the Cheng'en Palace, but this was normal. Anyone who got up at night and saw a skinless bloody corpse around him would scream, and the screams Inevitably, others will be awakened, which will then trigger a chain reaction.
After all, normal people, even if they have received some training.
When seeing skinless blood corpses and human skin, it was difficult to calm down, and it was even harder not to scream.
However, no matter how much they screamed, the fact was the fact, and it would not change just because they screamed twice. The relevant news quickly spread throughout the entire Cheng'en Palace amid the panic of the servants, and inside the palace The masters were also awakened one after another.
Even the servants in several nearby mansions woke up a lot and were extremely curious about what happened?
Climbing the wall to snoop is unlikely.
But it’s okay to listen to it while standing next to the wall.
At first, Duke Cheng'en and others were quite angry, and even wanted to severely punish the guy who disturbed their dreams. However, as the servants reported the truth and went to the nearby yard to see the victims in person, they I am not angry anymore, because people are already frightened, and fear dominates the brain, so there is no room for anger.
I won’t go into too much detail about the specific ugliness.
Anyway, I went to change my clothes.
After changing his clothes, he didn't dare to look at him anymore. In panic, he found a dozen strong men for personal protection and sent people to the government office and Dali Temple for help.
Ask them to come quickly and investigate clearly.
Then, of course, they didn't dare to sleep at all. They waited with the lights brightly lit. At the same time, they also began to discuss among themselves what was going on. Are there evil people and gangsters who are seeking revenge, or are there some ghosts and demons who are doing harm to people.
After thinking and discussing it calmly for a while.
From the skinning incident, some people soon thought of the concubine Shu who was seriously ill in the cold palace and her skin was said to have begun to fall off, as well as the cat demon that was rumored to be causing trouble in the palace some time ago, saying that all the culprits would be punished in kind. An eye for an eye retribution thing.
"Verify the identity of the deceased immediately!"
Thinking of this, Duke Cheng'en hurriedly gave instructions. As he gave instructions, his heartbeat began to accelerate. He hoped that his guess was wrong, but was afraid that he was right.
After half a stick of incense, the still-living second housekeeper came back with a frightened look and mentioned the specific list.
He was not frightened by the list, and he did not know anything about the relevant matters. If he had known about it, it would not have been his turn to be alive. His frightened look was mainly because he had to go and see to verify the identity of the deceased, and he could come back after seeing a corpse like that. , It is not easy to stumble and state the specific list. No one who is not a professional can bear it.
However, one by one, the familiar names of Duke Cheng'en came out from the mouth of the second housekeeper. His face became more and more ugly. Cold sweat broke out on his back, and his hands and feet began to become weak. He knew that their family This time I am afraid that I have been kicked on the iron plate. If I offend other people, the emperor can still mediate. He is not even afraid at all. But if I offend a monster, how can I mediate?
And the monster has already taken action against Concubine Shu.
He also killed the servants who actually skinned the civet cats.
How could it be possible to leave them alone, or to spare them alone? The reality is that the other party will either attack them one after another, or have already attacked them, but they haven't felt it yet, just like Shu The concubine gradually became seriously ill.
Thinking of this, Duke Chengen struggled to stand up and rushed out with staggering steps: "Take me into the palace quickly, I want to enter the palace, I want to see the Queen Mother."
"That cat demon wants to destroy my whole family. No, no, the Queen Mother is in danger. I want to enter the palace! Enter the palace!"
As soon as he said this, those who didn't know were still confused, and those who knew all changed their faces. Then they hurriedly drove out the outsiders and their family members who didn't know. The four people who knew got together, with frightened expressions on their faces. After muttering in a low voice for a long time, he hurriedly went out, still worried, and wanted to go to the palace to seek help.
If the emperor is not easy to see, then see the queen mother first.
They even had some hope that the Queen Mother was within the range of the cat demon's revenge. After all, if the cat demon only retaliated against them, Emperor Taikang might not necessarily do his best to help them and save them. Only the Queen Mother was also there with the cat. Within the scope of the demon's revenge, he was also on the verge of death.
Only Emperor Taikang would try his best to use all available resources to deal with the cat demon.
and seek ways to save them.
After all, regardless of the relationship between mother and child, even for the sake of traditional filial piety and face, he couldn't let the queen mother of a country go. His biological mother was killed by a cat demon, and he was helpless. If the news got out, what else could he have? Face, the dignity, dignity and status of the royal family were trampled under the feet of a cat demon.
Although it was still dark at this time, and the Queen Mother probably hadn't gotten up yet, Duke Cheng'en was the Queen Mother's biological father after all, so after going through some procedures, they entered the palace smoothly, and Queen Mother Cien was also awakened by them. Some unknown people summoned them urgently.
Only later did we find out what exactly happened.
Immediately afterwards, the Queen Mother naturally panicked immediately, and sent three female officials on the spot. One went to the Imperial Hospital to ask for the imperial doctor, one went to the Daolu Department to ask for Zixiao, and the other went to Qianqing Palace to ask for the emperor.
However, it was too early after all, and it was far from the time to go to court to work normally, so it was inevitable to delay some more time. By the time Emperor Taikang, Master Zixiao and others arrived, the oldest Duke Chengen had already taken the lead in feeling I feel uncomfortable, my face is flushed, and my whole body aches.
Others waited, including the Queen Mother.
There was also a vague feeling of discomfort.
As soon as Emperor Taikang came, Duke Chengen's family began to cry and complain. The crying cat demon was so bold that he dared to attack them. Emperor, you are the supreme emperor. How could you let a cat demon be so wanton and murder the queen mother and her relatives?
At this time, Emperor Taikang's mood was also very complicated, but after all, the situation was not very clear, so he did not say anything, but asked Master Zixiao to take a look:
"Master, please take a look at my mother first, and let them see if she is really like Concubine Shu!"
"promise!"
After responding, Master Zixiao immediately familiarly inspected the Queen Mother's body, as well as the bodies of Chengen Gong and Chengen Gong's three sons, and then sighed:
"Your Majesty, it seems that I was mistaken earlier. The cat demon was probably not helping Concubine Shu out of kindness to let her live a little longer, but deliberately letting her live a little longer.
Maybe it was to torture her for a while longer.
The Queen Mother, Cheng En Gong and others all have the same strange and destructive aura in Concubine Shu's body.
That breath has completely destroyed the origin of their lives.
And they don’t have cat fairy blood in their bodies. "
