Di Xin had an impression of Concubine Huang, but it was only an impression, not a deep understanding. He was still a prince when he accepted the concubine. He only remembered that she was a shy girl who always liked to close her eyes and blush. It looks like it’s up to you to pick and choose.
Compared with the passionate and unrestrained, mature and intellectual Jiang later said that he did not like such a shy and introverted woman. Once the novelty wore off, he almost forgot about Huang Fei's existence.
But with the little girl in front of him, whose eyes were dull and her mouth was drooling, he couldn't match the blurry figure in his mind.
"Why is she doing this?"
Huang Gun couldn't answer and could only look at his son Huang Feihu. He was usually stationed at Jiepaiguan and rarely returned to Chaoge for several years. The person who usually had the best relationship with Huang Fei was his eldest brother Huang Feihu.
"Half a month ago, Feihu came to visit, and my sister-in-law You Lian did not...not become like this."
Di Xin's eyes were majestic, as if he wanted to see a trace of disguise in the grief of the father and son. However, based on his understanding of the two of them, Huang Feihu was somewhat cautious, but Huang Gun was not. He was a real straight man. At this moment It's not like pretending.
After thinking about it, Di Xin slapped Huang Fei on the face, just like Huang Gun slapped Youhun.
"Your Majesty!" Huang and his son exclaimed.
"Back off!"
Few people could remain calm under Di Xin's aggressive gaze. Di Xin drew out the sword from his waist and walked towards Concubine Huang step by step. His strong momentum oppressed this weak woman.
Huang Fei's dull eyes were focused, and her confusion finally turned into panic. She crawled behind her with hands and feet, trying to get away from this vicious man. While crawling, she read at the same time, and the words in her mouth made everyone panic.
"Don't come here, don't come here! Oh my child, my child! You died so miserably! It was Empress Jiang, that vicious woman who killed you."
"I'm going to make you pay with your life, I'm going to make you pay with your life!!"
After saying that, Huang Fei took out a shriveled straw man from her arms and threw it to the ground.
Everyone was shocked, this idiot...
The art of witchcraft, the legendary art of witchcraft, the art of nailing the head of a straw man!
Upon seeing this, You Hun immediately possessed himself and turned himself into a flesh pad, catching the straw man, as if his hand was not an inanimate object, but what he caught was Empress Jiang's life. You Hun, who was gentle and gentle, gently held the straw man, Then he checked hurriedly.
"this……"
Looking at the huge bloody hole in the scarecrow's abdomen, which was almost exactly the same as Queen Jiang, You Hun got goosebumps all over his body, fearing that this ghost thing would do something wrong in his hands. Behind the scarecrow was a piece of white silk cloth, between the velvet A few long hairs were tied around each other, and the word "ginger" was written on them.
"Your Majesty, this is the art of witchcraft. The Curse King is none other than Concubine Huang!" You Hun handed the straw man in his hand to Di Xin in horror.
Looking at the rough-made object in his hand, Di Xin's eyes instantly turned red, and he stabbed Huang Fei straight with the sharp sword in his hand, showing no mercy.
When Huang Gun saw this, he burst into tears and stood directly in front of Huang Fei, using his body to block the sword. The sharp sword pierced Huang Gun's shoulder blade, and the bright red blood It dripped bit by bit, but Huang Gun didn't care about the pain at all, looking at Di Xin sadly and begging for mercy.
"Your Majesty! For the sake of my forty-seven years of service to Great Shang, please spare my daughter! She is not such a person, she really is not such a person."
"Feihu, Feibiao, Feibao, come on, come to the king and beg for mercy. Your sister doesn't even dare to kill a chicken, and even if a rabbit dies, she will cry for several nights. She is evil. Yes, yes, she must have been bewitched by someone, your Majesty is aware of it! Your Majesty is aware of it!"
Di Xin gritted his teeth, turned the sword in his hand, and said bitterly: "Old man, this is the second time you have stood in front of me. If it happens a third time, I will definitely kill you!"
Everyone was shocked and looked for the Prime Minister in the crowd. But the strange thing was that Bigan was not at the scene when such a big event happened. Without the Prime Minister and Shang Rong, they would not dare to go up to dissuade him, so they all turned their attention to the benevolent Meng. Uncle, and the majestic Master Wen.
I saw that Uncle Meng, who had always been brave enough to take responsibility, seemed to be out of nowhere, staring at You Hun with his eyes wide open. It was even more strange. With such a big thing in front of him, Uncle Meng seemed to be unknown, staring at a sycophant. very?
Seeing that no one came forward, Grand Master Wen finally stepped forward, grabbed Di Xin's shoulders and pulled him back.
"Your Majesty, have you forgotten what I once said to you? The more critical the situation is, the more calm you must be."
"Teacher, you have watched Zitong grow up. Now she is bedridden and her life hangs by a thread. How can you tell me to calm down?"
Don't call him a lonely Taoist, this is Emperor Xin's respect and admiration for Grand Master Wen.
"I know that you are suffering in your heart, so you have to calm down. There are many reasons for this matter. What is the use of killing Concubine Huang? She is a weak woman who lives in the West Palace and never goes out. How can she learn the art of witchcraft? ?”
"However, the people behind the scenes may not have thought that there happens to be a Jiuli priest in our Chaoge City. When it comes to Gu, if they are ranked second, no one in the world would dare to be ranked first. Your Majesty, you might as well let her give it a try Concubine Huang followed her lead to avoid killing the wrong good guy, but instead let the real culprit behind the scenes go free."
Di Xin wanted to raise his hand several times, but heard that the Grand Master was holding his body firmly down.
"Die Wu!"
Hearing the call of the Grand Master, Diewu walked out of the crowd of ministers with a smile. There were wings on his back and his gray complexion attracted everyone's admiration. Diewu saluted Emperor Xin and then walked to Huang Fei. Gun nodded under his gaze, and then a bright green light appeared in his hand, wandering around Huang Fei's body, detecting the fluctuations in mana and changes in the soul.
The further the black mist moves away, the heavier Diewu's heart becomes.
"Grand Master, the technique he used is indeed a voodoo technique, but it is not the voodoo poison of our southern border, but a witchcraft technique."
"What's the difference between the two?"
Die Wu gently pointed out the hair from behind the straw man, showing everyone the doorway, but tried his best to protect the hair from being touched. Currently, Empress Jiang was dying, so she could easily break the spell, fearing that something might happen.
"Witchcraft is not the first creation of the Jiuli tribe in southern Xinjiang. In ancient times, each clan and tribe had several witches who could communicate with the gods of heaven and earth. The witchcraft used by the people in southern Xinjiang is the science of pharmacology and its essence is derived from " "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" ①, hundreds of medicinal herbs are refined into voodoo, and the voodoo on Huang Fei's body is not pharmacological, but a kind of evil magic, a magic method, a forbidden magic that borrows the power of the evil gods of heaven and earth."
Di Xin was very impatient. He had no interest in understanding the so-called voodoo and evil arts.
"How does this relate to the abnormality in Concubine Huang?"
"Reporting back to the king, of course it is related. Since it is a black magic or forbidden magic, mortals must pay some price if they want to use it. People have three souls and seven souls. The soul is spirit and the soul is essence. Huang Fei has lost two souls and six souls. This is the price for being left with an empty shell!"
Wen Zhong also narrowed his eyes when he heard this, and asked softly: "You mean, since Huang Fei lost most of her soul, she has paid the price for forcibly performing evil spells?"
"This is just Die Wu's guess. If a person in the ghost realm performs such a magic, he should know how much it costs. Usually, he will pre-set the enchanted ghost to prevent disasters in advance. If Huang Fei does not know the dangers of the magic and hastily uses it, it will be very dangerous. It's possible that he uses his own soul to drive the spell."
Huang Gun was furious, grabbed the sharp sword that pierced his shoulder blade and threw it at Die Wu, but he easily dodged it by dodging lightly.
"You are lying when you are slanderous. My little girl is not that kind of person."
Die Wu apologized: "This is just a guess, it cannot be true. Maybe there is something hidden in it."
After saying this, Diewu returned to the crowd of ministers. When he passed by Mengchang, he looked at his surprised and confused expression, lightly patted Mengchang on the shoulder, and then said nothing.
Everyone looked at Huang Fei lying on the ground like a soulless corpse with gloomy faces, and their hearts were in confusion.
Huang Gun's words are credible but not entirely trustworthy. People's hearts have been fickle since ancient times. They were pure and kind before, but they may not still be that pure and kind after being left out for several years. At least most of the people present believed that they might not be able to uphold their true nature. Heart.
But there were two most critical things in this witchcraft that left everyone, including Di Xin himself, puzzled.
First, Concubine Huang had no children, but she kept saying that she had a son, and she was killed by Empress Jiang.
Secondly, everything is too coincidental, so the magic seems to be completed based on coincidence. Huang Fei accidentally obtained the magic, and then unexpectedly was able to get Queen Jiang's hair without leaving home. Unexpectedly The evil magic backfired, and he and the queen died together. Unexpectedly, Huang Gun knew about it, allowing this reckless man to expose all the hidden artifacts and evidence.
However, what really troubles Wen Zhong, Fei Lian and everyone who already understands the whole incident is the biggest headache.
On one side is the Huang family, who has been loyal for seven generations. Who is Huang Feihu? General Zhenguo! On the other side is Empress Jiang. She is not only the favorite of Emperor Xin, but also the queen of Dashang. The most terrible thing is that his father is Dong Bohou Jiang Huanchu.
If someone dares to say that Huang Fei is not guilty and was framed, how will Jiang Hou explain it?
This is an unsolved case. Huang Fei has lost her soul and there is no way to find out the whole story. If she is framed and prevaricated, once Dong Lu is separated...
The pillar of Dashang, the world-famous Grand Master Wen Zhong leaned over Emperor Xin and spoke his opinion on the whole incident. Hundreds of people stood in the entire West Palace, including ministers, generals, and soldiers, with countless pairs of eyes staring at him. Regarding this matter, no one dared to come forward and answer the question.
Di Xin's face was uncertain, and his anger was as if it had been doused by a basin of cold water, but he still had no trace of hatred for Concubine Huang. At least one thing Di Xin understood clearly, no matter who framed the Huang family, in the end The knife that stabbed the straw man was pierced by Huang Fei herself. No matter what, the sin of this knife existed, and he couldn't let go of the anger in his heart.
The king and the grand master whispered, but everyone remained silent.
Mengchang was also constantly thinking about the logic of this matter in his mind, and looked at Die Wu frequently. This woman always looked arrogant, and her words just now did not seem like what a neutral should say. Point out the best escape route for Di Xin.
Everyone is weighing the pros and cons, except Di Xin. What he cares about is emotion, and he is really sad.
"Teacher, I'm so tired, I'm really tired."
"Your Majesty, why do you say this?"
"I always thought that after getting the throne, I would be happy and have nothing to worry about. I had many ideas in my mind. I wanted to use the Nine Emperors to conquer the Eastern Yi, sweep away the Quan Rong, expand the southern territory, and defeat the rise of the Western Zhou Dynasty. , but, teacher, when I really came to rule the world, I realized that there were all constraints around me, this was not allowed, that was not allowed. I really don’t understand, obviously as long as everyone works together, even if there will be all kinds of problems, We can all overcome things, but why are there so many overt and covert fights and intrigues?"
"I'm really tired. Zitong is already like this. I'm really scared. I'm afraid of losing her. I'm also afraid that one day my ancestor's foundation will be destroyed in my hands. I can understand what you mean. It's not that I can't understand. The situation is just that I am really tired. I am also a human being with my own emotions and joys. I really want to be willful. Teacher, can you help me?"
Wen Zhong looked back at the ministers, frowned and pulled Di Xin to the side hall, and said softly: "My child, this is what the king means. Why does the king call himself a widower? Why does he say that he is an orphan? This one The road is not easy. When I asked you, had you thought about how you would answer me?"
"But for the sake of Yin Shang and Ji, I will not regret it even if I die!"
"Your ancestors all came here like this, and you are no exception. My child, you are the king, you are not a mortal. You should be the sun in the sky. The sun should have the power of the sun. How can you be like the weak moonlight? The love between sons and daughters? Sitting in this position, you can only be a powerful king. Once you show timidity, the whole Dashang will be in danger."
"Then what should I do?"
The monarch and his ministers in the side hall were whispering to each other, but something unexpected happened outside the court.
Only two sounds of children wailing could be heard coming from far and near. Princes Yin Jiao and Yin Hong came running crying all the way covered in blood.
"Father, oooh, father! Where are you, father?"
"Father, please go back and take a look. Queen Mother is dying. Queen Mother is going to die!"
Yin Jiao's wailing caused a stir among the ministers, and the bad news of the collapse of the sky shocked everyone's nerves. Some people cried with sadness, and some were thinking about the queen's hard work and kindness for twenty years. In short, the shocking bad news It made the officials pale, made the soldiers sad, and made Huang Feihu couldn't help but cry while hugging his sister.
With a "bang", the side door of the side hall was kicked away by Di Xin. At this moment, he no longer had the powerful and wise image of the past. His bearded face was soaked with tears, and he had no trace of the dignity of a king. , and ran all the way towards Zhongting.
"Zi Tong!!"
The situation took a turn for the worse, and all the ministers hurriedly followed the king and ran all the way.
At this time, Kuang Cheng, an expert in casual cultivating who was following Yin Jiao, grabbed Yin Jiao's figure and pointed at Concubine Huang who was lying on the ground.
"Your Highness, have you seen that sleeping woman? Your queen mother is dead, she killed her, but your father doesn't want to avenge your queen mother."
"Nonsense, my father loves my mother the most, he will not do this."
"But she's not dead, isn't she? Did you see the two people next to that woman? One is Huang Gun, the patriarch of the seventh-generation Zhongliang Huang clan, and the other, you don't need to introduce me, you should know it! General Huang Feihu , that will be the future pillar of the country of Dashang!"
Looking at the hateful eyes of the little man in front of him, two swords appeared out of thin air in Kuang Cheng's hands and gently handed them to Yin Jiao.
"Do you want to take revenge? This is the male and female sword I passed on to you. It is a sharp weapon. Just the sharpness of the sword is enough to kill someone. It is perfect for revenge. Do you dare to take it?"
Yin Jiao gritted his teeth, took the two swords, and walked forward slowly.
Meng Chang, who had not yet left, immediately stood up to dissuade him, but unexpectedly, You Hun beside him grabbed him tightly.
"Second brother!! This is the best result, don't create any complications!"
"Sure enough, it's you, Meng Hun!!!"
The two of them were confronting each other in low voices, while Yin Jiao walked faster and faster, and finally charged all the way. The remaining generals of the Huang family, Huang Feibiao, and Huang Feibao lowered their heads and did not move. Huang Feihu hugged his father's body tightly, crying uncontrollably. .
"Witch, the one who killed you is Yin Jiao! Give my mother her life back!"
With a flash of sword light, Huang Fei's eyes widened, blood flowed from her chest and abdomen, and she stared blankly at the sky, which was all blue!
"Shuzi, a bunch of Shuzi, I want to kill you. She has become like this, she is useless, and you still want to kill her, why?! Yin Jiao, I swear to kill you!"
Huang Gun's body was surging with heat and blood. Yin Jiao was shocked and stumbled towards the central court.
"Alas!" Meng Chang felt a little uncomfortable and pointed at Meng Hun, or You Hun, with a sore feeling in his eyes.
"Okay, very good, Lord Youhun, are you satisfied now? Do you feel comfortable?"
"If you want to scold me or hit me, you can just leave. Follow the others and leave quickly!" You Hun looked at the furious Huang Gun and the murderous Huang Feihu. He hurriedly pulled Meng Chang and followed a group of ministers to the central court. Run.
This time, everything is in chaos.
The furious Huang Gun overthrew his more powerful and mighty son, and beat Huang Feihu with his fists and kicks, venting his anger.
"Ah...Father, no...don't hit big brother."
As if she was having a flashback, Huang Fei's eyes were clear, she looked at her father with a smile, and she stretched out her slender hand towards Huang Gun.
"Father is here!" Huang Gun and several brothers stepped forward one after another, with tears rolling in their eyes.
"Little sister, big brother swears that I will avenge you. No matter who is behind the scenes, I will go to hell. I, Huang Feihu, swear that if I cannot kill this thief, I will not be worthy of being a human being in this life."
"No, big brother, no need, I'm so tired, I want to take a nap."
"Father, eldest brother, if there is an afterlife, can you...can you not force me to get married again, I just want to..."
Polygonum is used by Curcuma, and those who steal Curcuma and Artemisia are bandits. I feel sorry for my parents, who worked so hard to give birth to me.
Polygonum is used by Curcuma, and Curcuma is bandited. I'm sorry for my parents, who made me exhausted.
Meng Chang followed You Hun and unknowingly thought of the song "Polygonium". This is the era. Every era has its pain. Even if it is moved a thousand years later, this kind of absurd The sacrifices never end.
It's a blessing to know, but not to blame. If there is a thief in the trap, it will be fine if you suppress it.
Even the families of emperors and princes are in such precarious situations, so how are the people in such dire straits? Maybe dying without knowing anything is actually a kind of happiness.
PS①: Shen Nong’s Materia Medica is said to have been written by Shen Nong, but it is generally accepted that the book was compiled during the Qin and Han Dynasties. It is quoted in advance here and is purely fictitious. Please be informed.
