Fengwangfu

In the study room, candlelight shines from night to dawn.

I don't know what strategy they discussed.

But the actions on Marquis Wu'an's side continued and did not stop.

Although Marquis Wu'an has the demeanor of a general, his temperament has changed drastically since he returned to the capital. He has no taboos about his methods, whether they are aboveboard or shady. In his world, methods are good as long as they are useful.

He was not kidnapped by the reputation of the God of War that was praised by the people.

He has a perverse temperament and goes his own way.

One day, King Feng went to the palace of his mother-in-law to pay her respects.

The Wind King might have something to discuss with his mother and concubine, so he stayed inside for much longer than before.

But this small detail that people ignore has been attacked by those who are interested.

At this time, Emperor Tianyou was drinking and having fun with the beauties, so the attendants of the Forbidden Palace reported to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I have something that I don't know whether I should report to Your Majesty or not."

Emperor Tianyou's good deeds were disturbed, and he said impatiently, "I don't know whether I should say it or not, so why do you come to me? If you want to say it, say it! If you don't say it, get out!"

The servant of the Forbidden Palace was frightened by the ferocious tone, and quickly said, "For some reason, the Wind King has been in the palace for a long time."

Emperor Tianyou frowned and said, "What's the point of talking more between mother and son? It's so strange if they don't see each other."

Attendant of the Forbidden Palace, "..."

The attendant of the Forbidden Palace calmed down his mood and looked like he was hesitating to speak. Then he broke the jar and said, "I heard recently that King Feng seems to have taken a fancy to a maid in the palace and has always wanted to get her."

Emperor Tianyou himself liked beauty, so it is not surprising that his son liked beauty.

The attendant of the Forbidden Palace said again, "I'm afraid that King Feng is having an affair with that palace maid."

Emperor Tianyou said indifferently, "It's just a palace maid. As a prince, he can have it if he wants it."

Emperor Tianyou immediately waved his hand to ask the other party to leave, and then said to the eunuch next to him, "Give King Feng a few beautiful palace maids."

As a prince, if you want something you want, what is it like to be secretive?

The eunuch obeyed and responded.

King Feng didn't know that he just came back to ask for a favor, but there were actually many more maids in the palace.

In this way, he still has many lecherous labels in his father's heart.

King Feng ordered people to investigate the matter. After learning what happened, he felt even more hatred towards Marquis Wu'an.

He must make Marquis Wu'an disgraced and infamous.

And such small actions did not end with the reward for the palace maid. The informants to the emperor continued and happened one after another in the following days.

Marquis Wu'an sent people to investigate Feng Wang's every move, and did not investigate more hidden matters. He only found faults in daily life and government affairs, and magnified some minor mistakes.

Everyone will make mistakes sometimes. If you don't say it, you will naturally ignore it. Just correct it in time.

But Marquis Wu'an magnified Feng Wang's minor mistakes.

As time passed, Emperor Tianyou became more and more disappointed with the Wind King.

Emperor Tianyou's dragon body became worse and worse, and he had to lie in bed three days out of five.

At this time, a young eunuch who was serving looked at the mentally weak Emperor Tianyou with a grievance on his face and complained, "Your Majesty, this slave is really not worthy of you."

Emperor Tianyou's eyes were almost closed, and he hummed twice but did not speak.

The little eunuch continued, "Just now, I passed by the Yunxue Palace and saw King Feng coming out to greet me. He looked happy. Your dragon body is not in good condition. King Feng is not worried, but you behave like this. It really chills the heart of a slave. Look,

Don’t go down.”

The Feng King knew that there had been a lot of petty actions like this in the palace recently.

He was also careful and tried his best to avoid suspicion.

But he couldn't stop this kind of thing at all.

He can't kill all the eunuchs and maids in the palace, right?

At that time, he will really be inseparable from the crime of patricide and rebellion, and he will really play into the hands of Marquis Wu'an.

Jiang Chong investigated the matter between Nangong Xingsheng and Princess Wanhua, and knew that he and the Feng King had developed a grudge.

So he turned around and took refuge with Marquis Wu'an.

He was afraid that Emperor Tianyou was old and once he passed away and King Feng ascended the throne, he would be killed by King Feng.

So he took advantage of the witchcraft and assisted Marquis Wu An.

On this day, he reported to the God-Blessed Emperor, "Your Majesty, I have been investigating the matter of witchcraft and Gu, and I have seen a lot of things about witchcraft and Gu. I guess that your dragon body is probably inseparable from the trouble caused by witchcraft and Gu."

Emperor Tianyou was very worried about the puppet in his dream. He subjectively felt that his illness was inseparable from the witchcraft, but he had no evidence and didn't know where to start.

Now when Emperor Tianyou heard what Jiang Chong said, Long was very happy and felt that Jiang Chong's words were really in line with his wishes.

In this way, it becomes even more obvious that Jiang Chong is a loyal minister and is thinking about him.

then.

The next day, Emperor Tianyou ordered Jiang Chong to be appointed as the Imperial Envoy, and asked him to lead the witches to dig up the land everywhere to collect puppets, and arrest those suspected of spreading poison and praying at night.

Poisoning: It is to cast mysterious poisonous insects on others using mysterious methods, such as spells, which is called poisoning.

This incident made people in the capital panic and uneasy, fearing that they would be involved in the witchcraft case.

In this matter, Jiang Chong had some room to spare.

He buried the puppet in a place beforehand and sprinkled it with the blood of poultry.

When he led the witch to search, and when he pretended to find it, he asked the witch who had colluded in advance and claimed to be able to see ghosts to come forward to check the blood stains, and then through the witch's words, he dug out the puppet naturally.

Among those arrested were those who had offended Jiang Chong, as well as innocent and unsuspecting ordinary people, but most of them were members of the Feng King.

Jiang Chong used the excuse of searching for puppets to show off his power, forcing those ministers to retreat. This retreat would send him back to hell.

Jiang Chong thus eliminated the political opponents who were dissatisfied or who were in the way of Marquis Wu'an.

Suddenly, people in the capital changed their minds when they heard about Jiang Chong's name.

The people closed their doors tightly and did not dare to go out.

Those arrested were tortured, and while wailing and crying, they all confessed their "crimes" and revealed their so-called "accomplices."

After Jiang Chong got the list of the comrades he wanted, he immediately went to court and declared that the people on the list were treasonous.

As a result, within two months, nearly ten thousand people were executed in the capital.

Later, some people said, "In those days, I didn't dare to breathe loudly. The air was filled with the smell of blood, and my dogs huddled in the corner and didn't dare to make a sound."

Whether the person who was killed was unjust or not, no one dared to tell Emperor Tianyou.

After Emperor Tianyou fell ill, and with the prevalence of witchcraft and Gu, everyone just wanted to protect themselves and had no time to care about others.

Jiang Chong saw exactly this and was ready to take the next step.

Under the escort of Marquis Wu'an, the witches claimed that there was a "poison" in the palace. If it was not eradicated, it would be impossible for the emperor's body to return to its previous health.

Emperor Tianyou was most concerned about his own body at the moment. The more he declined, the more unwilling he became and the more he feared death. As expected, he approved Jiang Chong to enter the palace to carry out his mission.

Jiang Chong led the poison hunting team to enter and leave the palace openly, tearing down walls and digging into the ground.

Jiang Chong first started with the concubines who had fallen out of favor with Emperor Tianyou, and then slowly moved to the palace of the favored concubines.

In each palace in the harem, every inch of the land has been dug up, and there is dirt everywhere, and there is not even room for a bed.
