The farce in the main hall continued.
Feng Linwen just watched all this happen with cold eyes.
What seems to be turbulent now is actually just a prelude before the real storm comes.
The clone entered the Cheng Mansion and did not return for a long time, which gave Feng Linwen an answer.
Not only does the Cheng Mansion contain some kind of secret that must never be revealed, but more importantly, this secret must not have been revealed yet.
So no matter what the secret was, Feng Linhui had to force the shrinking Cheng Penghai out.
Four of the five Gu Ming, who were pulled, beaten, exploited and weakened, have been clearly arranged. Even if they were not knocked down by Feng Linyi, in Feng Linyi's eyes, Their threats are already under control.
A wise king never requires absolute loyalty from his ministers, but absolute control over his ministers.
Only Cheng Penghai never made a sound or showed his face from beginning to end.
He seemed to have been staying away from the situation, without any movement or sound.
It's so quiet, so scary!
Feng Linwen knew very well that Cheng Penghai was the one who cursed the late emperor to death. Both Wang En and Gao Qiang had mentioned this to Feng Linyi in a vague way, not to mention that since the establishment of Dongchang, Sima Liang had been in charge of Dongchang and unearthed too many secrets.
"Convene a court meeting to harden Wang En and stimulate conflicts. In this way, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty who have no choice but to seek help from me will flock to the Cheng Mansion and ask Cheng Penghai to come forward and change the current situation."
"He might not care about one or two, but if there are too many people coming to ask for help, Cheng Penghai may not be able to sit still."
"A venomous snake hiding in the dark is a huge threat, but if it is dragged out into the open, it may not still be so!" Feng Linwen said to himself in his heart.
The courtiers dispersed, and the empty Huoli Palace was still majestic and glorious. Feng Linwen sat alone on the dragon chair, having driven away all the eunuchs and guards, resting his chin on his hand as he gathered his thoughts.
Suddenly, a slightly elastic, round object appeared in the palm of his hand.
He raised his hand and saw that an eyeball with purple pupils was spinning in his hand.
"How is the situation?" Feng Linwen asked directly.
Although the loss of a clone is a pity, it is not too heartbreaking.
Feng Linwen was more concerned about whether he had heard any specific news.
Kruba said in a tone that seemed to be gloating: "That clone of yours... I have to say, it was really tragic to die. I still have the picture. Do you want to take a look?"
Feng Linyi hesitated for two seconds, and then chose to refuse.
If it's just a bloody mess or something, that's fine. I'm afraid someone will be imaginative and use some very inhumane execution techniques.
Although it is just a clone, if you watch it, you will inevitably feel the same...
"Are you so cowardly? I thought you were really a man. You fought against four Ninggang monks and refused to retreat. In the end, you chose to self-destruct. It's so sad... Could you be so brave just because you are a clone? ?" Kruba solved the mystery in Feng Linwen's heart.
"Is there a picture? I want to take a look!" Feng Linwen said this, as if he had forgotten that he was just as clean and neat as he refused.
Kruba did not refuse, but directly from the perspective of a bystander, everything he saw and experienced in the Cheng Mansion was presented in Feng Linyi's mind in the form of a dream.
From the perspective of others, Feng Linwen was just sitting on the dragon chair and taking a nap at this time.
In the dream, it has already been described in the first half, so there is no need to say more.
Until the second half, in the mountains behind Cheng Mansion, among the rockeries.
The clone, together with several Dongchang men, were discovered by people in the Cheng family and were besieged.
They fought and fled all the way, but did not leave the Cheng Mansion. Instead, following Miao Renxing's guidance, they broke into the underground palace in the back mountain.
Cheng Mansion's underground palace is already roughly 70 to 80% complete.
"It doesn't look like it was newly built. It's just undergoing some renovations. Judging from the texture of some wood, there should be traces of decades." Although the clone fought all the way with the monks in the Cheng Mansion, it was considered exciting. , but at this time Feng Linwen paid more attention to the background of the battle from the perspective of a bystander.
Not long after breaking into the underground palace, Miao Renxing and others were captured.
Only the clone is still stubbornly resisting. Although it is said that he is fighting against the four Ning Gang alone, it is actually an exaggeration.
If the clone hadn't originally used the body of a Ninggang monk as its host, I'm afraid it would have been captured long ago.
Even so, the clone is just fighting for its life to gain some breathing space. More importantly, most of the experience of the four Ninggang monks was actually on how to prevent the energy from spreading during the battle and not harm or damage the underground palace.
"It seems that the power of the monks in Cheng Penghai's hands is not only stronger than I expected, but also this weird underground palace, which is almost one to one and exactly the same as the imperial palace, is very important." Feng Linwen then concluded came to such a conclusion.
Although he could no longer communicate mentally with the clone, looking at the clone's escape trajectory, Feng Linhu understood what he was thinking at that time.
"Well done! As expected of my clone. Knowing that he couldn't escape, he took Kruba to see as much of the layout of this underground palace as possible, so that I could find out its secrets later." Feng Linwen couldn't help but Thumbs up for myself again.
In the dark underground palace, the Huoli Palace of the same style is already in sight.
The clone ran all the way and was seriously injured.
After escaping into the main hall, he saw a completely replica of the hall. Not only was there a dummy who looked exactly like 'Zhao Mingxuan' sitting on a dragon chair, but right in the main hall, where the civil and military ministers were standing side by side, he was kneeling Some long-dead corpses also wore dragon robes.
"What's going on?" Feng Linwen was a little confused and couldn't understand the rhythm.
But the scene was coming to an end. As the clone self-destructed, he finally broke a stone pillar in the replica Huoli Palace and collapsed half of the palace.
At the other end of the time where there was no picture and had disappeared, Feng Linwen seemed to hear a roar mixed with anger.
That voice did not belong to any of the four monks who blocked the clone.
The dream dissipated, Feng Linwen opened his eyes, grabbed Kruba, and continued to hold him in his hands and play with him.
Kruba could obviously see more, but without the constraints of the clone and the 'orders' according to the contract, he chose to quit the Cheng Mansion directly and return to Feng Linyi.
As if he was saying to Feng Linwen: "I'm just a prop, I don't have any feelings...!"
"The dummy sitting on the dragon chair undoubtedly symbolizes me. But what is the origin of those corpses? Why are they all wearing dragon robes?" At this time, the first thing that flashed through Feng Linhui's mind was the biggest. This is the doubt.
"Chen Gui!"
"Chen Gui!" Feng Linwen shouted twice.
The great eunuch Chen Gui immediately rolled into the hall. Before he could salute, he heard the emperor's words.
"Go! Call Gao Qiang for me. I have something important to ask him!"
"Also... When the late emperor passed away, some of his old ministers who were officials in Beijing and can still be found today have also been found for me."
"Hurry!" Feng Linwen said three sentences in a row, not giving Chen Gui any room to talk nonsense.
Although Chen Gui didn't understand why, he could hear the urgency in the emperor's tone. After a hasty salute, he rushed out of the palace as if his butt was on fire and arranged for someone to handle Feng Linwen's order.
