Chapter 33: Could it be that the emperor forbids the verdict to be reversed?
The Fire Demon is the person under Zhu Rong, the God of Fire. As for why he comes out to do evil, you have to ask God Zhu Rong.
Long Chuxia heard Bu Shangshu's question and replied: "If you don't wake up tomorrow, you will wake up the next day. You don't need to ask him. There is only one reason why the fire demon does evil, and that is that he angered the fire demon."
He is irritable and holds a grudge. As long as he resents someone, he will try his best to deal with him. Now the Fire Demon has not been captured by me, he just escaped. According to the Fire Demon's character, he will definitely come back to find him."
Bu Shangshu couldn't help being frightened when he heard this, "Isn't he very dangerous?"
Long Chuxia pondered for a moment, "I'll stay here tonight!"
Concubine Ying was slightly startled, "Stay here? But I must return to the palace!"
"You go back and I stay. Don't worry. What the emperor cares about is whether you go back or not. It doesn't matter if I don't go back!" Long Chuxia looked at Concubine Ying's beautiful face and said.
Concubine Ying hesitated for a moment, looked at Bu Shangshu, and said with pleading eyes: "Father, why don't you go to the palace and say that your daughter is unwell and cannot return to the palace tonight. Please allow the emperor to stay overnight at her parents' house.
, go back tomorrow!”
Naturally, Bu Shangshu couldn't get what he asked for. He said: "It's okay to ask the emperor to enter the palace for my father, but I don't know if the emperor will grant it!"
"The Emperor is kind-hearted and will definitely grant permission!" Although Concubine Ying said so, she was still unsure because as far as she knew, there had never been a time when a concubine could go home and live there. Apart from the palace etiquette, she
Knowing that there are many other factors, especially what happened to Liang Cairen before, the Emperor is probably worried.
In fact, what is there to worry about? He should know that her heart is tied to him, and she can even risk her life for him, so why would she do something to feel sorry for him?
Long Chuxia ordered the servant to move back to the room, pierced a small hole in the palm of his hand, and planted a charm. He looked up and Master Bu looked at her puzzled, and said: "This is a blood charm. Blood can be used in the body."
It's running, so the blood talisman can temporarily protect him!"
"Why is it temporary?" Master Bu asked again.
"Human bone marrow has a hematopoietic function. Now that he has lost blood, the body's hematopoietic function will create new blood for him, which will dilute the power of the blood talisman. If the blood talisman cannot withstand the fire demon, it will be destroyed," Long Chuxia explained
road
Master Bu nodded, "I understand, it's like two armies confronting each other. The fire demon is like the enemy, and our army is the blood talisman. If our army has always been brave and good soldiers, it can naturally compete with the enemy. If a group of new soldiers are replaced,
It will soon be annihilated by the enemy. The good and the bad will be mixed, and naturally it will not be able to withstand the powerful enemy."
Long Chuxia smiled and said: "The metaphor is very appropriate."
Two servants came in and moved the servant back to his room. Master Bu also hurriedly entered the palace to report to the emperor. The emperor had already received a message saying that there was something unusual in the Shangshu Mansion and that he did not know about Concubine Ying's leaving the palace.
(Because Concubine Ying invited the Queen Mother, and the Empress Dowager approved it, there was no need to tell him anymore. Since he was busy with political affairs, the matters in the harem were basically coordinated by the Queen Mother and the Queen.) Later, he went to the Queen Mother to ask An Fang if he knew Concubine Ying and Shu.
He was not surprised after hearing that the concubine left the palace and returned to her parents' home. Because the Queen Mother did not mention the old case twenty years ago to him, he just thought that Concubine Ying and Concubine Shu had returned from the disaster. They missed their relatives very much and wanted to go back and talk to them.
The person who followed Concubine Ying back to the palace was one of his cronies. He received a letter saying that something strange happened in the Shangshu Mansion. As for the strange method, he also wanted to learn more about it from Lord Bu, so he entered the palace when Lord Bu entered the palace.
When the time came, he immediately summoned
But I didn't expect Master Bu to come here for Concubine Ying. He said calmly: "I heard that something strange happened in Shangshu Mansion, right?"
Master Bu was not surprised, because the person who came back with his daughter would definitely report it to the emperor, so he did not intend to hide it, and said: "Actually, the matter is not clear yet. Miss Long said that a servant in Weichen's family was possessed by an evil spirit. That servant
I was rescued, but I still haven’t woken up.”
"Miss Dragon? What Miss Dragon?" The emperor did not know that Long Chuxia also accompanied him out of the palace. The people accompanying him only told the whereabouts of Concubine Ying and Concubine Shu, but did not mention Long Chuxia!
Mr. Bu was slightly startled, "Miss Long, she is the Dragon Doctor in the palace. Concubine Ying took her out of the palace with her."
The emperor was stunned, "It's her? What is she doing?"
Mr. Bu did not dare to talk about the reversal of the verdict, so he only said cautiously: "Wei Chen wants to meet the savior of Concubine Ying, so that he can solemnly thank you."
"How did she know that the servant was possessed by evil spirits?" The emperor seemed to be somewhat interested in this and did not blame Long Chuxia for leaving the palace.
Master Bu shook his head and said: "This little minister didn't know. At that time, the servant rushed in like crazy and said there was a ghost, and then hurt himself. It was Miss Long who restrained him and fought off the fire demon!"
"She fought off the fire demon? Were you there?"
"Besides Wei Chen, there are also Concubine Ying and Zhuo Jing present. They all saw it with their own eyes!"
"What does the fire demon look like?" the emperor asked
Master Bu was stunned for a moment, and said with a look of shame: "Wei Chen can't see this."
"Aren't you there watching? Why can't you see it?" The emperor looked at him and asked in surprise.
"Although they are present, Wei Chen cannot see what the fire demon looks like, because in Miss Long's words, the fire demon exists in the blood, so Wei Chen and others cannot see it!" Master Bu said, and then
Feeling something was wrong, I added: "Just look at the servant's appearance, he really seems to be possessed by evil spirits!"
The emperor was silent and looked at him for a while before saying, "Long Chuxia would not follow Concubine Ying out of the palace for no reason. Why did she leave the palace?"
Mr. Bu was slightly surprised, why did the emperor say this? Could it be that the Queen Mother had already revealed it? Now, if he didn't say it, the emperor would be furious, and the consequences would be unbearable for him. After considering it again and again, he still felt that he had said it, "No."
Do you know that the emperor still remembers the black whirlwind twenty years ago?"
"I know about this matter. I was only nine years old at the time. I remember that my father was very worried about this matter. Why did he talk about it for no reason?" The emperor asked with a frown.
"It's like this. Miss Long feels that the black whirlwind incident and the murderous maniac case are involved, so she wants to ask about what happened back then for further investigation!" Master Bu said bravely.
The emperor sneered: "What did Miss Long say? Who is Miss Long? She overturned the case when she said it was overturned? The emperor sealed the case with his own hands back then, and decreed that the case should not be brought up again in the future. Bu Qing family, do you want to resist the order?"
When Master Bu heard this, he was shocked and quickly knelt down and said: "Wei Chen doesn't dare, but Wei Chen wants to track down the missing child. As for the case of the murderous maniac, it may not be related to the Black Whirlwind!"
"This matter is a great pain in my father's heart. You were with the late emperor back then, and you know how humiliating this matter was to him." If the emperor had pointed out that back then, the murderous maniac had clearly been proven guilty.
But because of the black whirlwind incident, the late emperor had to release him. This was a great shame to the late emperor. After releasing the murderous maniac, he still sent people to hunt him down, but the murderer maniac escaped.
There was no trace, and no trace could be found again. In desperation, the late emperor had no choice but to order the case to be sealed, and decreed that the case of the murderous maniac would not be mentioned again in the future.
