Yong Rong frowned and said: "Zhenren Yun Zhongzi is deeply favored by Emperor Ama. How dare he, the fifth uncle, dare to be so arrogant in Ziyun Temple and lead troops there? And Agui, he is simply crazy!"
Wei Xiuyan swallowed her saliva and said in a horrified voice: "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it. I'm afraid many more people have died in Ziyun Temple at this moment."
"Uncle Wu really made a big fuss this time. Once this matter reaches the ears of Huang Ama, he will definitely not spare him." Facing Yongrong's words, Wei Xiuyan shook her head and said: "No, I listened to their conversation, this matter
The emperor seems to know that, Taoist Master Yun Zhongzi also said, 'The emperor has turned into a demon with one thought, but the prince is still awake', which is incomprehensible."
Yong Rong said in disbelief: "Huang Ama knows? This is impossible. In the past ten years, Huang Ama has loved and trusted Master Yun Zhongzi and Kongjing. I have seen it with my own eyes. It is impossible..."
Halfway through, he suddenly remembered something and said, "You said that Uncle Wu asked Yun Zhongzi to cast a spell. Do you know what it is?"
"They didn't say it clearly, but it seems to be related to the nearly 100 boys imprisoned in Ziyun Temple."
"Boys..." Yong Rong said thoughtfully: "When did they appear in Ziyun Temple?"
Wei Xiuyan thought about it carefully and said: "If I remember correctly, it should be three days ago that so many people suddenly appeared and were locked in the wing. Judging from their age, they were only about ten years old.
.”
"Three days ago..." Yong Rong muttered and repeated these three words, with a strange look on his face: "Yong Cang also happened to get smallpox three days ago, how could it be such a coincidence."
"Brother Twelve?" Wei Xiuyan said strangely: "Since he is ill, he must not be related to this matter. It's just a coincidence..." At this point, her expression suddenly changed and she said hurriedly: "I remember
Now, I have been in the palace for ten days, and the emperor once asked me to pray for a person. That person's name starts with the word "love". Do you think he is the twelfth elder brother? And now, it is also for ten years.
Second elder brother?"
Yong Rong frowned and said: "But at that time, Yong Cang didn't have any illness. He was fine. Why should he pray for blessings? Also, Yong Cang had smallpox. To save him, he should have asked a doctor. Yun Zhong
What can a Taoist do?"
"I heard that Prince He has been asking Yun Zhongzi to cast spells. Maybe he has some way to save the twelfth brother, but the price is those children, so Yun Zhongzi has been unwilling to agree."
Yong Rong thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It still doesn't make sense. Where did so many children suddenly come from? And... is there really a way to cure smallpox?"
"I don't understand either. I just know that the current Ziyun Temple is too scary. I... don't dare to go back. Brother Six, can you help me?" Seeing her showing fear, Yong Rong felt heartbroken.
, hugged her quickly and said: "I know, I won't let you go back. Just stay here with peace of mind. I will tell the servants to keep their mouths shut. No one will know that you are here." As he said, he became more serious.
He said in a serious tone: "No matter what happens, I will protect you!"
His words calmed the fear in Wei Xiuyan's heart. She nestled against his chest and whispered softly: "It would be great if you and I could always be like this!"
Yong Rong hugged her tightly and said warmly: "Don't worry, this day will definitely come true."
After settling Wei Xiuyan in the wing and asking people to go out and inquire about it, Yong Rong just changed his clothes and went to the Forbidden City. After entering the Shenwu Gate, he did not go to the Yangxin Palace or the Kunning Palace.
, but went to Yongshou Palace; now all the eyes of the palace were focused on Kunning Palace, but no one paid attention to him.
Wei Jingxuan was quite surprised when she saw him coming. When she found out the purpose of his visit, she was even more surprised, "Did Xiuyan really say that?"
"It's absolutely true. I always feel that this matter is related to my twelfth brother, but there are many places where I can't connect it. I think that your empress is always resourceful, so I came to discuss it with her to see if I can figure this out."
As he spoke, he added: "Before I entered the palace,
, I specially ordered people to inquire about the situation in the capital. Three days ago, many people indeed suddenly disappeared. Most of them were kidnapped in their sleep without anyone knowing. They could not be found. They had already gone to Shuntian Mansion.
I reported the case, but so far there has been no progress.”
When Wei Jingxuan lowered his head in meditation, Mao Gui said softly: "Master, speaking of which, early this morning, there was news from Kunning Palace that the condition of the twelfth prince has worsened. Do you think the emperor is seriously ill?
He went to the doctor randomly and asked Yun Zhongzi to use some evil method to save the twelfth elder brother."
Wei Jingxuan glanced at him and said, "How do you explain the hundreds of boys imprisoned in Ziyun Temple?"
Mao Gui thought for a while and tentatively said: "Perhaps... the emperor started to prepare as early as three days ago. Now that the condition of the twelfth brother has worsened, the imperial doctor is helpless. The emperor can only place his hope on Zhenren Yun Zhongzi and let He
The prince forced him to cast a spell!"
"What you said makes some sense, but nearly a hundred boys of the same age cannot be found by searching, let alone kidnapped overnight, unless..." Wei Jingxuan suddenly stopped talking and turned to
And said: "Sixth Brother, do you still remember when the emperor began to believe in Buddhism?"
Yong Rong lowered his head and thought for a while, then said: "I remember it should be ten years ago."
Wei Jingxuan said quietly: "Ten years ago, not long after the twelfth elder brother was born, it seems... everything has gone against the twelfth elder brother."
Yong Rong's eyelids twitched and he said with a hint of trembling: "So, is it really because of the twelfth brother that the fifth uncle went on a killing spree in Ziyun Temple?"
"It's almost the same; but I'm more curious about what happened to the twelfth elder brother, which made the emperor start preparations ten years ago, even at the cost of killing innocent people." At this point, she said again: "Yun
Is Neutron willing to cast spells?"
"I heard from Xiuyan that before she left, Yun Zhongzi didn't want to kill those innocent children, so he refused to cast the spell. As for now, we don't know." His answer made Wei Jingxuan's lips curl up with a cold arc.
, "Killing hundreds of people to save one person is too cruel. No wonder Yun Zhongzi refused to agree."
Yong Rong hesitated and said: "What will happen to the twelfth brother?"
Mao Guidai replied: "If Brother Twelve can survive smallpox, he will naturally turn the corner. However, judging from the current situation, I'm afraid it is unlikely."
Yong Rong was silent for a while and said: "Mother, I want to go see my twelfth brother." Although he and Yong Rong were estranged because of Wei Xiuyan's incident, and they were no longer as close as before, but after all, he looked at Yong Rong.
Growing up, there was still some affection for Yong Cang. Now that I learned that Yong Cong was likely to die of smallpox, I couldn't help but feel a little sad.
