Wei Ying secretly thought it was bad luck and let out a depressed breath, worrying secretly in her heart: "To be in the spotlight, to be in the limelight! Go crazy first, then make a U-turn! I, Wei Ying, am probably not far away from making a U-turn! Alas, it's going to rain, and my mother is getting married. Go to hell, just take one step and say the other!"
He glanced around with a sullen face, and said in a cold voice: "A thief entered the palace last night. Fortunately, His Majesty's great fortune, and the brothers of Jinyiwei are loyal and capable, most of those rebellious bastards They were all killed on the spot, and only a few remnants escaped by chance. Now, a city-wide manhunt for these remnants of thieves and bandits begins! From today onwards - the whole city is under martial law! Within the palace, twelve guards perform their duties, patrolling and patrolling. All the people are doubled! The city defense within the nine gates is in charge of the generals of the Siwuying, Siweiying, Siyongying and Twelve Battalions. If you have anything, you can report it directly to me. From now on, there will be a continuous search in the capital for three days. Suspicious idlers can be killed first and then reported! Now except for the Jin Yiwei, everyone else is here to perform their duties and take action immediately!"
The guards and battalions of each department responded and slowly dispersed outside the Meridian Gate. After the teams of each department and guard were gone, there were still one or two thousand Jin Yiwei standing in front of the Meridian Gate!
Wei Ying took a few steps and asked: "Now, there are corpses of demon comrades and some corpses of eunuchs and maids everywhere in the imperial garden and palace. Who will lead the team to remove all these corpses and cremate them?"
Wei Ying usually doesn't make friends, doesn't cultivate connections, doesn't do people's affairs, and doesn't speak people's words. Everyone in Jinyiwei is his enemy. Now that he is different, he has to send something. Unfortunately, there are only a few of these people who are a little bit different. No one with an official position wanted to take advantage of him. He was just a small member of a hundred households with a very low official rank. Anyone in this group of people would be several levels higher than him, so he asked tentatively first if there was really no one. If you are willing to take the initiative to go, it will not be too late for him to call your name!
After hearing this, Zhao Qingsong felt that it was exactly what he wanted, and he hurriedly agreed loudly: "I would like to report to Wei Baihu, I am willing to lead people to do this errand!"
Wei Ying looked up in surprise and saw Zhao Qingsong from a distance. She was a little confused. She didn't know why Zhao Qingsong would rush to do this dirty, tiring, smelly and useless job of cremating corpses? Has he lost his mind?
However, since someone was rushing to do this job, and he knew that Zhao Qingsong was smart and capable, not a careless person, he nodded and agreed: "Okay! I have long seen that you are the pillar of the country, and I didn't notice it as expected. Come on, come on! Come to the front now and I'll say a few words to you."
Zhao Qingsong didn't know what Wei Ying wanted to tell him, so he jumped out of the queue and followed Wei Ying into the Meridian Gate.
Wei Ying looked back and forth and saw no one nearby, so she whispered to Zhao Qingsong: "Zhao Qingsong, although this job is a bit tiring, it is not difficult. Take these corpses as soon as possible to the Jingle Hall outside Xizhimen and burn them." That's it. The only thing you need to pay attention to is - no matter how weird or strange the corpse you see is, you are not allowed to publicize it to the outside world, let alone talk about it in private. Try not to let irrelevant people see all the corpses, and all the corpses must be covered with white cloth. Wrap it up and burn it. After everything is burned, you immediately come to the West Factory Command Post to listen to the next instruction! This matter is of great concern. You must do it as quickly as possible. Do you understand? ?”
Zhao Qingsong blinked and thought to himself: "It seems that there is another story in this matter. Broken corpses hacked by swords are commonplace for most Jin Yiwei, so what is there to publicize? What is there that cannot be told to outsiders? ? And being so anxious to burn these corpses is obviously not only the intention of Wei Ying, but also the intention of the above. From this point of view, there must be a big problem with these corpses! "
It seems that what happened in the Royal Garden is very interesting!
Zhao Qingsong hurriedly agreed: "Yes! I obey my orders!"
Wei Ying gave Zhao Qingsong a very meaningful look and said: "You lead three hundred captains, and you should go and do this immediately!"
Zhao Qingsong agreed, ordered 300 people, took the token issued by Wei Ying, and led the team towards the Royal Garden!
When I arrived at the place, I saw that the imperial garden, which was originally lush with vegetation and countless flowers and trees, had already turned into a tree withered and thousands of flowers withered in just one day!
For some reason, all the plants turned into a dehydrated, yellowed, withered state, as if they had been roasted by an extremely high temperature flame!
And the imperial garden was filled with corpses of eunuchs, palace maids and imperial guards in strange poses in various costumes!
When Zhao Qingsong asked people to take the white cloth he received to wrap the bodies of these eunuchs and maids, he immediately discovered something unusual.
The death conditions of these eunuchs and maids were very strange. Most of the eunuchs and maids' bodies did not have any external injuries, and their expressions before death were with their mouths wide open, their eyes widened, their whole bodies tightened, and their hands Distorted, showing a terrifying appearance of extreme panic!
It was as if he had seen something extremely terrifying before he died and was frightened to death!
The corpses of the Ouchi guards who died in the imperial garden were quite different. They all had external injuries. Some of them were injured by blunt objects, and some were stabbed to death by swords, spears, and halberds. But they The situation when he died was the same as that of those palace maids and eunuchs. The muscles on his face were all distorted and did not resemble a human shape. It was obvious that he had suffered great terror before dying and was killed in extreme fear!
Zhao Qingsong has seen many corpses in the past few years of handling cases and arresting people, but he has never seen such a uniform and strange death like this!
All living people are afraid of death, but when things come to pass, they are often not so afraid. Those who are scared to death are, after all, a minority among the minority.
A military captain in Jinyi couldn't stand the excitement, and suddenly opened his mouth wide and vomited wildly!
Others were also affected by this weird and disgusting scene, and started to vomit after the captain.
Zhao Qingsong saw the captain trembling while vomiting, as if he was extremely afraid of these corpses. He walked over and patted the man on the shoulder and asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you sick?"
The captain raised his head with difficulty and saw Zhao Qingsong. His teeth clashed and he said with extreme fear: "Last night... I saw those monsters with my own eyes last night. They... they are not human, they are all ghosts." ! They’re all ghosts!”
Zhao Qingsong was stunned and asked: "Everything is a ghost? What do you mean?"
"Fengdu Ghost City, the judge checked his name, the King of Hell nodded, and the ghosts asked for their lives! These people are Fengdu...the ghosts who came from Fengdu Ghost City to ask for their lives. The ghosts of these dead people were all taken away by these ghosts. !”
Zhao Qingsong's pupils shrank slightly.
He has heard the rumors about King Yama in Fenggui Ghost City for a long time!
But most of these rumors are so bizarre, bizarre and unbelievable!
But after seeing the appearance of these dead bodies in the imperial garden, Zhao Qingsong couldn't help but believe these rumors!
He also vaguely guessed the methods of this Fengdu ghost town!
The people who come out of this ghost town in Fengdu are probably not only highly skilled in martial arts, but they also probably know some special methods that can disturb people's minds!
These eunuchs and maids originally believed in gods and ghosts. I am afraid they believed the hallucinations that appeared in front of them at that time. This is why many eunuchs and maids were scared to death by the so-called monsters!
And he has evidence to prove it!
That is - all the dead Ouchi guards had fatal trauma on their bodies, and a small number of eunuchs and palace maids also had injuries caused by sharp or blunt objects!
Only some of the eunuchs and maids had no external injuries at all, and they looked like they were scared to death!
This incident further proves the correctness of Zhao Qingsong’s judgment!
If it is really the king of hell who names the little ghosts and demands their lives, then just let the ghosts take away the souls of these people. Why bother to use knives and sticks to attack these people's corpses?
Does it look good if you poke a hole in it?
If you smash it into pieces, you will die more completely?
This kind of behavior is obviously taking off your pants and farting - it's unnecessary, three noses and eyes are venting - take an extra breath after eating, scratching an itch with six fingers - what a trick you have!
Zhao Qingsong has never believed in ghosts and gods, so he immediately deduced the methods of Jia Daoshi and his group from a realistic perspective!
He was very sure that his speculation this time was absolutely correct, just like he had speculated from the beginning that Jia Daoshi and his gang would definitely be up to something evil!
Obviously, this haunting method is not enough to scare everyone to death, because some people are more courageous after all, so they need to use swords and sticks to finish off these more courageous people!
But what Zhao Qingsong didn't understand was - what was the purpose of Taoist Jia running into the palace to kill so many people - and then running away?
It can't be said that they were so full that they had nothing to do, or that they just came to the palace to get addicted to killing people?
Whatever you do, you must have a plan!
Jia Xiu and his gang spent so much effort, put in so much effort, and killed so many people, their plan is definitely not small!
But so far, Zhao Qingsong has not found any clues that can indicate the destination of this group of people!
However, Zhao Qingsong had some vague guesses - this group of people was obviously not reckless. To do such a big thing, they must have gone through extremely careful planning. Jia Xiu and his gang probably came to the palace to murder some big shot!
Either he came to assassinate the emperor, or he came to assassinate someone in the harem!
The power struggle within the palace has been fierce since ancient times and has never stopped.
Power makes people addicted, power makes people crazy, and power makes people's blood boil!
Maybe some powerful person couldn't outsmart others, so he just resorted to destroying them physically!
When it comes to power struggles - the things involved will become intricate and extremely complicated!
If anyone is accidentally involved in this matter, he will definitely die without a burial place!
Zhao Qingsong has no intention of doing this, so he is not going to continue to study it in depth!
Knowing too much can sometimes lead to extreme pain. There are some things in the world that are better off knowing nothing about.
What he is most concerned about now is whether Zhu Miaoying was involved in last night's disaster. Is she okay now?
Zhu Miaoying lives in the extremely remote side room of Jingyang Palace. All the unimportant people living there live there. She must be safe and sound there, right?
Zhao Qingsong turned his head and was about to give an order when he turned around and saw that all the captains looked livid and terrified!
It was probably what the captain said just now, "The king of hell calls his name, and the ghosts claim their lives" that frightened these people.
Zhao Qingsong looked at the face of the captain who had just finished vomiting and gave the order with a fierce mouth: "Stupid pig! Bastard! Anyone who talks nonsense about the devil will be sent to prison and tortured! Big guy! Shut your mouth tightly and hurry up and get on with your errands! If you let me hear that idiot talking nonsense again, don’t blame me, Zhao Qingsong, for being cruel! This is your intention, so be careful! Do you understand?"
"clear!"
After hearing this, all the captains agreed and hurriedly started wrapping the body in a shroud!
