Chapter 6 The messenger of the underworld (1)
It was already evening when Feiyi was sent back to the Shangshu Mansion.
When Shaoqing saw her haggard face, which was almost sunken on her cheeks, she could hardly believe her eyes.
That night, outside the prince's bedroom.
The number of guards with twice the number of guards completely surrounded the bedroom into a wall of iron. Moreover, these guards were masters of the masters in the palace, and they all followed the emperor's orders. Without the imperial edict, even the prince could not order them.
The guards' order was to take care of the prince and limit his access. If someone wanted to see the prince, unless it was the emperor himself, they would need a jade plaque given by the emperor.
The prince knew that he had been under house arrest in disguise.
After the hunting incident, he thought about seeing his father, but he was rejected.
It is said that he wants to take a good rest, but... the prince knows it is not that simple.
The secret of Luoying Pavilion... The prince knew that his father was afraid that he knew the secret of Luoying Pavilion.
He is the father's biological son and respected as the crown prince. He will inherit the throne sooner or later. Logically speaking, the father should not hide anything from him.
If the father really has a secret that he doesn't want him to know anyway, then... would he say...
Will that secret be bad for you? If you know that secret, what actions will you take against your father?
In the study, he asked all the eunuchs and palace maids to leave. They sat alone in front of the desk, holding the four treasures of the study and writing some poems, but their hearts were filled with great excitement.
If you want to find out the secret of Luoying Pavilion, then... the first thing you need to do is to get out of your current state of confinement.
The prince was outlining the way to get out of here in his mind.
He is currently in the palace, who is trustworthy?
Not one person.
His mother and queen have passed away, so there is no need to say about his father. Although Huan Zhen has a good relationship with him, he is too young after all, and his mother must also covet his position as the crown prince.
So... the only person he can believe is Shaoqing.
He planned to let Shaoqing enter the palace and discuss with him.
Shaoqing is a good friend to him, will he help him?
No matter what, he is the future emperor. As long as he promises to ascend the throne in the future, Shaoqing will be a hero. He should agree?
The prince doesn't want to sit and wait for death.
Thinking of this, he had plans.
He kneaded the paper on the table into a ball, spread another piece of paper, and then wrote a letter to let Shaoqing enter the palace.
Of course, considering that the letter is intercepted very high, he did not mention the core content in the letter, but just said that he hoped Shaoqing would enter the palace and play a few games with him. The two were friends and everyone in the palace knew about it, so the emperor probably wouldn't be suspicious.
The moonlight today is very bright.
The guards outside the prince's bedroom stood upright, and they could not hide any movement around them.
Because a eunuch was killed, the guards were on guard and did not dare to slack off at all. The emperor had already given them an order that anyone except him who would break into the prince's bedroom without a token could be killed on the spot!
As for the prince, he was not allowed to leave the bedroom. Even if he was respected as the prince, the guards would not have to obey his orders.
The emperor's orders were so strict that the guards naturally understood them.
The prince...is probably going to lose his power.
At present, the three guards outside the bedroom are all waiting in the corridor in front of the gate, with a solemn face and holding scabbards at any time. As long as an assassin comes, no matter which direction they come, they have the confidence to unsheath instantly and kill the other party's lives.
Originally, the guards did not look at their companions, so they would not look at them.
However, at this time, a guard suddenly heard the sound coming from beside him and turned his head toward the other party.
The scene in front of him shocked him...
How is that possible!
The companion also had a series of shocked expressions at this moment.
He is obviously dead.
A thick and black spike completely penetrated his head, piercing from the back of his head and out of his forehead, without a drop of blood flowing down.
and……
A short dwarf with a body winding like a snake was riding on the shoulder of the guard, holding one end of the nail in his hand.
Such a strange phenomenon made the guards who saw all this feel as if they were in a dream. They had been coming back to their senses for a long time. Just as they were about to draw their swords, they suddenly felt a pain in their hearts. Before they could shout, black nails were already penetrated into their hearts.
At the same time, none of the guards outside the prince's palace survived.
All of their bodies were pierced by black nails, and they were killed almost at the same time.
The door of the bedroom was pushed open.
They crawled along the dark corridor.
The prince has finished writing the letter.
Putting the brush on the inkstone, he picked up the letter paper again, looked at it several times, confirmed that there was no problem, folded the letter, and shouted: "Comeone! Came one!"
However, there was no reaction.
The corridor was filled with the bodies of guards, eunuchs and palace maids.
All of them were distorted and penetrated their bodies by black nails.
The intense blood soon spread to the prince's room.
At the same time, in the Shangshu Mansion outside the imperial palace.
Feiyi suddenly woke up.
"No...no! No!"
Her screams soon alarmed the servants.
As soon as a maid entered the room, she saw Feiyi saying to her in horror: "Hurry up... hurry up! Go wake up Lord Shangshu! Let him come to see me immediately... No, let him enter the palace immediately! Something terrible is going to happen..."
At this time, Feiyi was thinking about only one thing...
You must never let the dead soul be born!
Absolutely not possible!
Otherwise, it means the arrival of a real disaster!
No one entered the study.
The prince felt strange. He put the letter away, put it on his body, slowly came to the door, and opened it.
He leaned forward to look into the corridor ahead, but it was pitch black in front of him.
Suddenly, a dark shadow with a dwarf-like appearance quickly passed by the end of the corridor!
The prince almost screamed out...
That was the black thing I saw in Dongshan that day!
Like a dwarf...
No, it's not just a dwarf...
The prince felt that it was more like a baby!
Shaoqing and Feiyi sat in the carriage and rushed to the palace.
"Are you sure? The dead soul is really going to be born?" Although Shaoqing had expected such a day, he didn't expect it to be so soon.
"Yes...yes!" Feiyi pulled open the curtain of the carriage from time to time, and hated that the speed was still too slow.
"The so-called death-rewarding spirit is the evil spirit that declares the birth of a curse, and is also the messenger who brings evil signs to this world. As long as there is no death-rewarding spirit, the curse cannot be fully established. However, if the death-rewarding spirit is really born..."
Feiyi knows...
It must be stopped as soon as possible! It must be stopped!
The prince slowly walked towards the darkness of the corridor.
The bloody smell became stronger and stronger.
"Why...how is it so dark?"
The prince didn't dare to make a sound when he walked, and he didn't dare to even call the guards.
After walking for a while, he suddenly felt something was wrong...
how so!
The corridor he is walking in now...
There is no end!
He generally remembers the location of the bedroom very clearly. This corridor is definitely not that long!
At this moment...
He noticed a black dot appeared on the wall ahead.
That point suddenly began to rotate.
Soon, it gets bigger and bigger.
A vortex formed.
And the vortex suddenly split into two halves.
Finally, it became...
A black door!
Chapter completed!
