"Weary of Victory" is an ancient witchcraft. As the name suggests, it is a spell that uses curses and spells to defeat those who hate it.
This spell process has a standard version and a deluxe version.
The mahogany plaques and jade plaques that people wear in daily life, as well as the villains in horror movies with needles and soles, etc., are all anti-win techniques.
As for the deluxe version, the process is more complicated. You need to ask a Taoist priest to open an altar to perform rituals, recite mantras, draw talismans, and a series of other processes.
You get what you pay for, and the deluxe version is of course more powerful in terms of winning, hitting wherever you point it, and glaring at whoever gets pregnant.
However, the art of hating victory is essentially a curse. Regardless of whether it has any effect or not, as long as it is implemented, it is a very taboo thing, especially in the palace. It is no different from treason.
It is a serious crime, no matter how kind the emperor is, he will never let it go.
An inexplicable letter of remonstrance was thrown under the corridor outside the Tai Chi Palace. When the trembling eunuch handed it to Li Zhi, the whole Tai Chi Palace was boiling.
Li Zhi was so furious that he almost fainted again. After trying hard to suppress his rage, he immediately issued an order to investigate.
An hour after burning incense, the Yulin guards in the palace captured Fan Yunxian and Guo Xingzhen who were involved in the case.
The matter is not over yet, these two people are the executors, and what Li Zhi is looking for is the mastermind behind the scenes.
After receiving clear instructions, Yu Linwei immediately went to the palace and captured all the palace officials, both male and female, who had interacted with Fan Yunxian and Guo Xingzhen.
The Tai Chi Palace was filled with clouds early in the morning. Li Zhi even ordered the court meeting to be suspended for the day and sat in the palace with a livid face waiting for the result of the final interrogation.
Empress Wu didn't know about the great changes in the palace until the morning, and hurried from the harem to Anren Hall.
As soon as she entered the palace gate, she saw Li Zhi sitting at the top with a sinister expression, staring at her with cold eyes.
Empress Wu's heart trembled, and she hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, what happened? Why are you asking Fan Yunxian and so many other people in the palace?"
Li Zhi didn't speak, but still stared at her coldly.
After a long time, Li Zhi handed over the letter of remonstrance. Empress Wu took it and glanced at it hastily. Suddenly her beauty turned pale and she knelt down.
"Your Majesty, I have never participated in this matter. I swear to God!"
Li Zhi said coldly: "Fan Yunxian beside you has been involved in the matter, don't you know anything about it?"
Empress Wu's eyelids twitched.
This was her biggest crisis since she was crowned Queen. Even when she was fighting with the Queen, her situation was not as dangerous as it is now.
Practicing witchcraft within the confines of the palace, especially when the object of the witchcraft is the emperor, is a real act of treason.
Fan Yunxian, who was next to Empress Wu, was questioned. She didn't know whether Li Zhi had the evidence, but she knew better that if she made a mistake in dealing with the matter in front of the emperor today, it would be an irreversible outcome.
This matter has touched the emperor's objections. He will not let anyone involved in the case go.
When Li Zhi was able to depose Empress Wang, would he mind deposing another Empress Wu?
"Concubine, no! Really no!" Empress Wu said with tears streaming down her face. She didn't know whether she was frightened or wronged.
Li Zhi was noncommittal, his face still gloomy.
This incident is not only a major palace case, it is also a marital crisis for the Tian family couple.
If it is finally confirmed that she is involved with Empress Wu, Li Zhi will destroy her no matter what.
It's acceptable for husband and wife to have different dreams in the same bed, but if the person next to you has the intention of murdering your husband, who can sleep there?
I can't even wash it.
"It's an anonymous letter of advice that hides its beginnings and ends, with only a few words and no evidence. Your Majesty would rather believe it than the relationship between you and your concubine for many years? Your Majesty, this is clearly someone who wants to separate you and me!" Empress Wu cried bitterly.
road.
Li Zhi's expression softened slightly. After all, he was a person who valued emotions. Although there had been some friction and intrigue between the couple since he became ill and Wu's descendants approved the memorial, in general, he and she were still a couple.
, is a family.
After hesitating for a long time, Li Zhi said in a deep voice: "I...actually don't believe this remonstrance, but I must investigate the remonstrance. This bad thing happened next to the bed, and I can't pretend to be deaf and dumb.
"
Empress Wu lowered her head and sobbed: "I really don't know how to prove my innocence..."
Li Zhiqiang smiled and said: "I was so angry just now that my tone was a little irritable. Queen, don't blame me. I believe you are innocent. Whether Fan Yunxian is involved in the case or not will be revealed after I verify it."
With murderous intent suddenly appearing in his eyes, Li Zhi said slowly: "No matter who is involved in the case, I will punish them severely. I want to be a benevolent king, but if others bully others too much, I will also teach them that benevolent kings can also kill people."
Empress Wu trembled and whispered: "Yes, I will also prove my innocence."
Li Zhi suddenly smiled and said: "Fan Yunxian has served the queen for many years. Do you think he has the courage to do something in the palace and curse me?"
Empress Wu's eyelids twitched, it was difficult to answer this sentence.
If it is finally confirmed that Fan Yunxian is actually involved in the case, and she is defending Fan Yunxian at this moment, wouldn't she be involved in it herself?
But it would be even more inappropriate to say to his face that Fan Yunxian has bad intentions and has already shown signs of dissatisfaction with the emperor. You have shown signs that you have not dealt with him for a long time, which is obviously harboring evil intentions.
Neither the left nor the right. For the first time, Empress Wu found it so difficult to answer a question.
Seeing the struggling expression on Empress Wu's face, Li Zhi was silent for a moment and then smiled: "Well, maybe the Empress doesn't know this person's loyalty and treachery, so we'll just have to wait for the final result."
After Empress Wu retreated tremblingly, a cold breeze blew inexplicably in the empty hall.
Li Zhi sat alone in the hall, his eyes half closed and his brows furrowed.
After a long time, Li Zhi let out a long sigh and raised his voice to the palace door: "I declare my promise to Jingzong, Shangguan Yi to see you."
After a pause, another familiar face appeared in Li Zhi's mind, so he added: "Xuan Li Qinzai is here to see you."
Empress Wu exited the main hall, left the palace gate tremblingly, and disappeared from Li Zhi's sight. Empress Wu suddenly straightened up and restored her graceful demeanor.
Looking sideways at a palace maid who was following closely beside her, Empress Wu said coldly: "Quickly leave the palace and send a message to Li Yifu, asking him to find a way to see Fan Yunxian and Guo Xingzhen in prison. I want to know the truth. Fan Yunxian and Guo Xingzhen
Are you really using my name to practice the art of being tired of winning?"
The palace maid hurriedly responded.
Looking at the palace maid's retreating figure, a trace of fear flashed in Empress Wu's eyes.
Yes, this time, the arrogant Empress Wu was also scared.
The art of aversion to victory has been notorious since ancient times and is an unpardonable sin.
In the palaces of past dynasties, if an alchemist practiced witchcraft and an incident occurred, it would inevitably be a major event involving millions of corpses and bloodshed for thousands of miles.
Empress Wu was afraid that she would become a victim of this major case.
Until now, she still didn't know whether Fan Yunxian was really involved in the case, and she couldn't even imagine whether Fan Yunxian would bite her out after being put in prison.
After all, if someone manipulates Fan Yunxian to use any torture device and beat her into submission, everything she has in this life will be destroyed.
