Chapter 179 The Frenzy of Horror
This year is destined to be uneventful.

After the early dynasty, the ministers sent by King Xuan began to visit one after another, but King Xuan's mansion closed its doors and saw no visitors.

Everyone has lived in the court for many years, so how can they not understand the strangeness revealed behind this unusual situation, plus the slightly abnormal behavior of Emperor Yuanchang during the court meeting today, if the ministers do not respond Well, the officials these years have really been for nothing.

What's more, there are still some people surrounding Xuan Wang's mansion, who are clearly guarding Xuan Wang's mansion without any concealment.

After Prince Xuan's Mansion, Prince Jiang's Mansion also closed its doors and saw no visitors.

Just when the ministers of King Xuan's faction were anxious about this, news finally spread from the palace: King Xuan, King Jiang, and the Twelve Princes were fined and confined in the mansion for three months because they disrespected the Holy Majesty and angered Longyan. .

No one knows how to offend Longyan and why he disrespected His Majesty on this big Chinese New Year day, but since Emperor Yuanchang said so, those courtiers who originally wanted to inquire about the news naturally stopped thinking, not to mention, the emperor therefore As for punishing his own son, no one can say anything about it.

But now, Yu Wulin and the others are indeed imprisoned in the Prince Xuan's mansion. Before the court meeting on the first day of junior high school, Emperor Yuanchang just ordered someone to take Yu Wulin and the others back to the mansion and put them under strict supervision. No one is allowed to enter or leave. Outside of Prince Xuan's mansion, no other punishments were imposed on Yu Wulin, but Ruan Fu still remembered that after Emperor Yuanchang gave the order, there was a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

After a whole night of tossing last night, Emperor Yuanchang only called Yu Wujue into the imperial study room after the court meeting, and Yu Wujue came out of the imperial study room half an hour later.

After Yu Wujue came out, although his expression looked normal, Ruan Fu knew that his eyes were serious and did not dare to relax, so he said, "How is your Majesty?"

Yu Wujue looked at her, his face subconsciously gradually became a little serious, but he shook his head and said, "Too many things happened last night, Father needs some time to recover."

Seeing this, Ruan Fu just hummed and nodded. In fact, how could Emperor Yuanchang be fine? Not to mention the first fainting last night, followed by assassination and Gu incident. Without a few days of recovery, I'm afraid it won't work.

She still had some thoughts in her heart, but Yu Wujue looked down at her, with a soft smile on her lips, and said, "Who are you going to meet with?"

Knowing that Emperor Yuanchang entrusted this matter to Yu Wujue, Ruan Fu only nodded and followed Yu Wujue out of the imperial study.

At the same time, in the imperial study room, Emperor Yuanchang was leaning back in the chair with a tired face, and his eyes were full of exhaustion.

An Cheng stood behind him, saw this and said cautiously, "Your Majesty, you should go to rest for a while."

Emperor Yuanchang sighed after a long time, and was standing up, when he came across a sachet belt hanging around his waist, he couldn't help being startled, picked it up and looked at it for a while.

Seeing this, An Cheng said from the side, "Your Majesty, this is left over from Ruan Tongzhi. It is said that it is a medicine made by Linyuan, a folk genius doctor, that can make Gu insects unable to get close."

Emperor Yuanchang naturally knew what it was, even though he was not in a good state at that time, he was still conscious.

Seeing this, he just glanced at An Cheng lightly, but didn't say anything. Seeing this, An Cheng laughed and bowed his head.

Emperor Yuanchang walked slowly, walked out of the imperial study step by step, and headed towards the sleeping hall, followed by a long line of palace people, including Liang Yu, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, followed closely behind.

"Liang Yu, captured King Xuan and others back to Prince Xuan's mansion yesterday, what did they do?"

Liang Yu was suddenly nominated, and he usually said respectfully although his face was expressionless, "His Royal Highness Xuan Wang and His Royal Highness Jiang Wang have been struggling at first, but after struggling, they stopped struggling. However, they have always wanted to see His Majesty, and they have been crying for grievances." , Said that the matter of regicide has nothing to do with them. They were framed."

"Heh! Framed?" Emperor Yuanchang let out a chuckle from his throat, and said because of his weak body, "What do you think?"

Liang Yu was still expressionless, as if nothing could trigger his facial expression except when Emperor Yuanchang was in danger, "I'm stupid and don't understand, but I feel that His Royal Highness Xuan No such thing."

This is a fair sentence. He is the commander of the imperial forest army, and he often needs to follow behind Emperor Yuanchang. He, a warrior, will not think about the temperament of these many princes, but there will always be conflicts over a long period of time. Intuitive impressions of some people.

When Emperor Yuanchang heard the words, he just shook his head and glanced at Liang Yu, "Can't do it? Liang Yu, you still don't know my sons very well."

Liang Yu pursed his lips and remained silent. In his opinion, he was naturally a brave and foolhardy person.Compared with those who were intriguing in the court, he only knew to protect Emperor Yuanchang. When danger came, Emperor Yuanchang took the lead, and King Xuan, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that no matter it was compared to Chu Whether it is the king or the king of Jin, there are really too many things to do, but it is not likely that he can do it well. As for killing the king, how can he be possible based on the character of a warrior?

Emperor Yuanchang didn't care what Liang Yu was thinking, Liang Yu was by his side, he could see many things, he said in a deep tone, "It's just that yesterday's situation didn't make him put all his eggs in one basket, that's all. My son, how could I not know that among these sons, the second son has the coldest temper, but he has a little more of a gentle personality. This is not quite similar to me. The fourth son is also The only one who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside is only the fifth child, who looks mediocre and mediocre, in terms of ability, he is not as good as the second and fourth child, but when it comes to cruelty, sometimes the second child can't match it."

Emperor Yuanchang suddenly commented on his son in front of him, and Liang Yu suddenly felt uneasy, and almost knelt down, "Your Majesty, I am afraid."

Emperor Yuanchang looked back at Liang Yu, "Why are you so afraid, I won't do anything to you, it's just..."

When he said this, he paused again, but he was a little disappointed. He said, "I don't need to look into the matter of the assassin last night. I can see that it was not the original intention of the fifth brother. All the fifth brother can think of is just thinking about it." It's just to intensify the conflict between me and the fourth child. In this palace, it has been quiet for 20 years and now some disturbances have finally arisen. Liang Yu, hold my token, and I want you to watch carefully, this inner palace Among them, how many people are related to the events of the year."

"Yes!" Liang Yu said in a deep voice.

Emperor Yuanchang nodded and said no more. Although he said so about Yu Wulin, Yu Wulin didn't know how to respect the holy will anymore. On weekdays, when these people were fighting openly and secretly, he always turned a blind eye. Close your eyes, there is only one throne, and they are fighting for it. This is the only way for the royal family, just like he did in the past. However, fighting is one thing, if even he, the emperor, is used Such blatant use is not what he wants to see.

He walked towards the sleeping hall. After entering the sleeping hall, Liang Yu waited outside the hall. An Cheng accompanied Emperor Yuanchang into the inner hall. Are you asking yourself, or are you talking to someone, "That girl has the blood of the Gaoche people on her body. Over the years, because of the queen's affairs, and also because of the matter with Jue'er, I have treated the Gaoche tribe, especially its witches, I hate it deeply, I wish I could deal with it quickly, but..."

Emperor Yuanchang looked forward with some old eyes, and he didn't know where to focus his eyes, "If the queen is still here, I don't know how to persuade me..."

He murmured, but he seemed a little lonely in this large inner hall. Seeing this, An Cheng just stood quietly aside and didn't talk to him.

-

On the other side, after Yu Wujue and Ruan Fu left the imperial study, they went to the place where Meng'er was detained.

Although there was a lot of commotion in the palace last night, this incident did not become known to everyone outside. At least, the courtiers did not know the news. If they knew, some people with ulterior motives would not know how to use this matter The incident caused a storm, and the settlement of the people involved is still low-key.

Nearly three hours have passed since the maid named Meng'er was knocked unconscious by Yu Wujue last night. During this time, she woke up once. The person in charge of taking care of her tapped her acupuncture points every hour. Let her wake up, even if she can't move, don't dare to let her speak easily, this girl knows those witchcraft techniques, no one can guarantee that she will do something if she can speak or move.

After seeing Ruan Fu and Yu Wujue coming, the person in charge of the guard immediately said respectfully, "My lord, Ruan Tongzhi."

Yu Wujue nodded, "How is it?"

"Back to the prince, he was seriously injured, and he woke up once during the period, but his subordinates have followed the instructions and tapped the acupuncture points, and there is no problem."

Yu Wujue hummed, and Ruan Fu walked into the place where Meng'er was imprisoned.

Menger's condition is really not good, her face is pale, Yu Wujue used [-]% of her strength in the palm that was split by Yu Wujue last night, although she avoided it in the end, but Menger endured it. I'm afraid there are [-] to [-]% of her body, and she can persist until now without dying on the spot, which shows that Meng'er still has some skills.

Hearing a sound of "咻", Meng'er, who was still in a coma, let out a muffled snort, moved her body slightly, and then slowly opened her eyes, seeing Yu Wujue and Ruan Fu standing in front of her, There was a look of vigilance in the eyes, and it became very sharp in an instant.

Seeing this, Ruan Fu chuckled, "Such a high level of vigilance, being a palace maid who has been hiding beside Concubine Zhen for more than ten years, is really a waste of talent."

Although Meng'er was still not feeling very well, she had already recovered a lot in just such a short period of time. Hearing this, she said in a hoarse voice with some firmness, "Now it is in the hands of King Jin and Ruan Tongzhi. In this way, if the prince wants to kill or cut, it is up to you."

"It's hard-spoken." Ruan Fu said.

Meng'er pursed her lips, she was injured, and she was still sitting on the ground leaning against the wall, she just raised her eyes when she heard the words, and her eyes looked at Ruan Fu firmly, there is no such thing as a servant girl in the deep palace who looks humble or submissive, she doesn't seem to be afraid of Ruan Fu at all What Fu and Yu Wujue would do to her was ordinary.

"Who are you that old man with the surname Gongyang?" Ruan Fu squinted at her for a while, then asked suddenly.

When Meng'er heard the words, her expression changed slightly at first, almost unnoticed by others, but she immediately said, "Meng'er doesn't know what Ruan Tongzhi is talking about!"

Ruan Fu naturally didn't miss the unexpected and surprised look on Meng'er's face when she spoke. Meng'er knew how to use Gu, although the Mr. Gongyang she knew was far from Meng'er. That Mr. Gongyang has never even been close to the imperial palace, but once he thinks of Gu insects, Ruan Fu will never forget that Mr. Gongyang who used the technique of controlling Gu to perfection.

This temporary question was only a temporary decision, and I didn't expect to have such a harvest.

Her face darkened immediately. Obviously, Meng'er knew that Mr. Gongyang. If so, this person must have contact with the palace, but the possibility of how to contact him depends on Ruan Song. No matter how powerful Ruan Song is, he can't Helping an apparent outsider get into the palace makes contact with these people who are working undercover.

A flash of light flashed in Ruan Fu's mind, and he said in a deep voice, "You have already had contact with Mr. Gongyang before entering the palace!"

She asked so suddenly that Meng'er didn't even react for a while.

But Ruan Fu didn't even wait for her to react, and continued, "Is he your master outside?"

"Not the master, but someone you respect."

She asked three times in a row without Meng'er's answer. From the first question, after Meng'er's eyes flashed surprise and surprise, the last two questions left only an expression of disbelief and staring at Ruan Fu. Some sinister eyes.

But even if she didn't say anything, Ruan Fu immediately got the answer when he saw the look in her eyes.

"Sure enough!"

But Meng'er seemed to have realized something suddenly, looking at Yu Wujue and Ruan Fu's eyes with a bit of sinister, "Jin Wang and Ruan Tongzhi are really powerful!"

Yu Wujue and Ruan Fu looked at each other, Shen Mou obviously felt that he was hiding a dream that was no longer necessary.

Meng'er looked at the two of them, her pale face, her eyes with a hint of madness, she curled her lips and smiled, "The Gaoche people are proficient in the art of witchcraft. But what exists, we can use the art of witchcraft to control everything in the world, control people's hearts, and even control grass and trees, birds and beasts, so that everything can be used by our Gaoche people, establish a kingdom belonging to our Gaoche people, and become The gods who rule the world, neither live nor die, teach other people of other races not to dare to look down on us! Since Ruan Tongzhi has the blood of the Gaoche tribe, why do he help the evildoers!"

As she spoke, there was a frenzied look in her eyes, as if following her words, she could see the Gaoche people break through the jungle in the northeast, walk from the jungle to the vast Central Plains, become the masters of the land, and surpass all of them. above all else.

When it got to the end, Meng'er's eyes were red, and the madness in her eyes was even more serious. Seeing this, Ruan Fu felt that Meng'er had a madness that she couldn't understand and agree with. Immortal, just stupid!"

But Meng'er seemed to be insane, as if she couldn't allow others to refute what she had insisted on since she was a child, "The Gaoche tribe is the oldest nation, and the nation most qualified to stand on the earth, and the rest are all Slaves of the Gaoche tribe! We Gaoche tribe have worked hard for this for generations, this is the most sacred order given by the daughter of the witch saint, it is to awaken the most mysterious power of the Gu king, and it is the best way for the Gaoche tribe to live forever!"

When Ruan Fu heard the words, she felt as if something had been gambled in her heart, and she couldn't get up or down. For the first time, she had a thought of destroying a group of people, and sneered, "The ambition is big. If that's the case, the palace There must be many of you."

Meng'er's eyes are full of madmen, staring at Ruan Fu and Yu Wujue fiercely.

Ruan Fu suddenly said coldly, "Who was responsible for the Queen's affairs back then, and who is your master in the palace?"

Meng'er gasped and looked at Ruan Fu, and took it for granted, "The daughter of the witch saint of the Gaoche tribe is the master of all Gaoche tribe members, and what we believe in is the holy envoy who can communicate with the Gu king!"

Meng'er is obviously a pawn placed next to Concubine Zhen from the Gaoche family. Ruan Fu looked at her for a long time, and a coldness gradually appeared in his eyes, and Meng'er's expression seemed to have undergone a subtle change in his eyes.

Yu Wujue pursed her lips and stood aside, watching this crazy scene, the coldness in her eyes gradually gathered.

"Who is the daughter of the witch saint, and who is the holy envoy?"

Meng'er suddenly crossed her hands, and the enthusiasm in her eyes gradually faded into incomparable piety. She put one hand on her heart, raised her head slightly, and said in a pious tone, "The witch saint's daughter lives in the hearts of every Gaoche clansman. There is a witch saint's daughter living in the hearts of people of the family blood, and the witch saint's daughter will use the power of supernatural powers to give us the most sacred orders." Suddenly, she suddenly looked up at Ruan Fu, "Ruan Tongzhi is also considered a high-ranking man. People from the Che tribe, Ruan Tongzhi also has a daughter of the witch saint in his heart, and one day the daughter of the witch saint will be awakened, and it will be time to punish the traitor!"

Speaking of the last sentence, she instantly became hideous again.

Yu Wujue's complexion changed, Ruan Fu only felt that Wufeng was automatic, as if a bit of evil spirit had arisen, she grabbed Yu Wujue's hand and tugged at his sleeve.

If ordinary people listened to these words, they might feel terrified and even trembling in their hearts. Ruan Fu just looked at Meng'er quite calmly, closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes were still full of clarity.

Ruan Fu took a step back, and whispered next to Yu Wujue, "I once heard Lin Yuan say that the Gao Che tribe's Gu skills can be used to control a person's mind and make them become loyal to one person. Or a kind of unconscious person, these people are no different from ordinary people, they only do things arranged by the person who controls the Gu when the Gu is touched, but if the Gu is not perfect, perhaps, when receiving some stimulation But it can be suddenly aroused, and the instinct is to protect everything that you are loyal to."

Obviously, Meng'er's situation at this time may be enough.

Yu Wujue's eyes froze for a moment, and with a sudden movement, it was as if he had squeezed Meng'er's neck with all his strength, and Meng'er's face turned red instantly, with a pained look on his face.

Yu Wujue narrowed his eyes and said, "How did the queen's matter happen?"

His voice was cold, and it seemed that he had been holding back for a long time since last night. Seeing this, Ruan Fu felt worried, but he still didn't stop Yu Wujue from making any moves.

Meng'er was approached to death, but she couldn't break free, and she couldn't make a sound. Seeing this, Yu Wujue shook her hand suddenly, and Meng'er fell to the ground beside her.

"Emperor, the Queen's matter is none of my business...the daughter of the Witch Saint, no, she didn't give me orders..." she said intermittently.

Yu Wujue looked at Meng'er on the ground and said, "You Gaoche clan's dream is very lofty, but you have been poisoned by Gu insects, there must be many people like you in the palace. , I am not afraid that I will not be able to find them. They must be like you, they all regard the Gaoche clan as more important than their lives. The king's trap!"

Meng'er, who was almost unconscious after being thrown on the ground, suddenly looked at Yu Wujue, her face was pale and bloodless, obviously this threat was more important to her than killing her.

A hint of coldness rose on Yu Wujue's lips, and said, "This king thought that after a hundred years, you have withered a lot, but unexpectedly, you have secretly walked out of the jungle and entered the Central Plains. Very good, but I want the Gaoche clan to treat you The replacement of the Central Plains is just wishful thinking! It is just a nation that is good at Gu, and it is also trying to use such dirty things to control the Central Plains, daydreaming!"

But Meng'er seemed to be stimulated suddenly, especially the dirty word, which made her eyes widen instantly, and she retorted sharply, "Witch Gu is the most sacred thing in the world!"

"Witch Saint's Daughter, Gu King?" Yu Wujue stared at Meng'er with some disgust, and the words uttered from her thin lips made Meng'er terrified, "If this king cuts out your heart, you, the witch saint's daughter , but will it still live in your heart?"

Meng'er seemed to be choked by the throat in an instant, and the enthusiasm in her eyes was instantly extinguished, leaving only fear and uneasiness, as if she was really afraid that Yu Wujue would really gouge out her heart.

For such blind and mad worshipers, such an approach is undoubtedly a hit.

Seeing this, Ruan Fu pursed his lips and said, "Tell me, if this is the case, each of you will no longer have a witch saint's daughter in your heart, and the Gu king will also disappear with it. Will this Gaoche clan disappear with it?"

This kind of flower can only be effective when Meng'er is so close to collapse.

Meng'er's face became paler.

Yu Wujue said, "I'll say it again, who knows much about the Empress back then?"

Meng'er looked at Yu Wujue and Ruan Fu in panic, feeling as if her heart had been grabbed by something, and what was lost from her was the daughter of the witch saint and the Gu king who were extremely revered by them.

"I, I don't know, I didn't do the Queen's affairs, I, I was in charge of following Concubine Zhen, someone secretly followed the Queen, we, we don't know who it is..."

"Why did you highlight the killer last night?"

Meng'er raised her head abruptly, "I heard the order of the witch saint's daughter, and the request of the Gu king..." As she spoke, enthusiasm gradually rose in her eyes.

"Who is your master?"

"Witch Saint's Daughter, we believe in the Witch Saint's Daughter..."

"Who is the daughter of the witch saint?"

Meng'er's original uneasiness and panic seemed to have gradually disappeared, and she only murmured, "The daughter of the witch saint, the daughter of the witch saint is the most sacred person of the Gaoche clan..."

Ruan Fu narrowed his eyes, "How do you get in touch with the witch saint's daughter?"

Meng'er was crazy, and now she was a little excited and said, "Only by practicing the most brilliant witchcraft can I understand with the witch saint's daughter. I want the most brilliant witchcraft in Liancheng, and I will not live or die!"

Ruan Fu and Yu Wujue looked at each other, and they both frowned. At this time, Meng'er, they were not sure whether they had been controlled or had really become what they are now, but they also knew that someone was behind the scenes to control everything. That's it.

Meng'er intermittently murmured about the witch saint's daughter, the Gu king, etc., as if she had lost consciousness. Although she was seriously injured, she struggled to bow to the ground, her palms pressed tightly to the ground, facing the darkest place in the room. In the direction of the witch, she bowed to the ground and whispered in her mouth, "The daughter of the witch saint will always be honored as the daughter of the witch saint."

Seeing this, Ruan Fu turned his head and glanced at Yu Wujue, Yu Wujue's eyes moved slightly, seeing Meng'er's appearance, he also knew that there was nothing left to ask, and with a slight movement of his palm, he saw that he was bowing down. Menger who was on the ground spit out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.

This time, there was really no breath.

Ruan Fu was pulled out by Yu Wujue, after going out the door, Yu Wujue's footsteps paused slightly, but Ruan Fu heard a soft sigh.

"Wujue?" She stretched out her hand to hold Yu Wujue's hand, and suddenly felt heavy in her heart. The matter of the queen has been lingering in Yu Wujue's heart for nearly 20 years, and he has been looking for the answer for so many years. It is close to the answer, but it is still full of fog and even digging out such a big thing. In her eyes, Ruan Song's enthusiasm at the beginning didn't feel much, but now seeing Meng'er like this, she just felt terrified.

If there are many people like Meng'er in this deep palace... the more the matter is revealed, the more confusing it becomes. She originally thought that her rebirth was already an unbelievable thing, but seeing such a scene now, just now I feel cold all over.

Even if she is like this, she can still think that there are murderous intentions hidden in the tranquility of the deep palace, and there are many dangers. Such a fanatic person is more terrifying than a dead man.

Feeling even more uncomfortable at the moment, Yu Wujue held her hand back, and said, "Ruan'er, don't worry."

Ruan Fu hesitated to speak, most of the time it was Yu Wujue who comforted her, but the time when she really comforted Yu Wujue was very rare. Feeling more at ease, he pursed his lips for a while before saying, "We will definitely find out about the matter of the Empress, the matter of the Gaoche clan..."

But Yu Wujue interjected, "Fanaticism, worship, loyalty, these cultivated things may not be their fatal blow, I will let people find them."

His tone was calm, but only Ruan Fu, who was holding his hand, knew how the master who was holding his palm hard should feel in his heart at this moment.

It is not certain whether the daughter of the witch saint mentioned by Rumeng'er is a real person, or just a certain status respected by the Gaoche tribe, but one thing is at least certain, that Mr. Gongyang is the same as today's The situation is inseparable, and those of them who hide in the inconspicuous corners of the palace must have a master, but it is unknown who this master is.

She looked at Yu Wujue and nodded heavily, bringing the strength to make Yu Wujue feel at ease.

Even if he didn't say anything, Yu Wujue felt at ease with her around.

The corners of Yu Wujue's lips raised slightly, and he said, "This Meng'er's words are not unbelievable. They are second to each other, and they are obviously working very well. The most careful arrangement is that they don't know who each other is. They just need to be themselves." For the matter, just follow orders, I never thought that I could find out the news about the queen mother from her, this matter will not be resolved so quickly."

After a pause, his voice faded to the point where he could hardly hear him, "I have been searching for the truth for nearly 20 years, so what can I do if I wait..."

Although the voice was low, Ruan Fu was beside him, so why couldn't he hear it, and immediately felt as if he had been stung hard in his heart, and the pain was so painful that he couldn't control himself.

Those people, those people, she will make them pay the price!
