Chapter 859: Haunted incident in the palace that shocked Chang'an
After Queen Wang finished saying the "bizarre" words, she suddenly felt that lying is actually very simple and not difficult at all. Just tell the "appearance" of the matter, and then let everyone guess the "essence" and guess what it is. It has nothing to do with me!
Wang Ping'an naturally didn't believe it, but he said first: "Something bizarre happened. No wonder you had to place a clean bucket in the hall. It was really necessary to drive away evil spirits. Hey, why are you still standing there? Why don't you bring in a few clean buckets!" He said to the palace maid Xiu'er.
Xiu'er hurriedly ran out and went to find the toilet again. She was afraid that the small toilet would not be effective in expelling evil spirits, so she specially found a large toilet, and it was the kind of super-large public one.
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "Shi Zhongchen took care of me in advance and actually gave it to the queen. This means that he had a plan long ago. Killing Concubine Xiao Shu was just an excuse to lead to this matter. Why did he want to harm the queen? I can't figure it out!"
He knew it in his heart, but Li Zhi and Changsun Wuji were still confused. After Wang Ping'an's guidance, Li Zhi said: "Is it possible that the ghost of Xiao's family was caused by it? She died as soon as she died, why did she refuse to leave? Is this a grievance?"
People in this era believed in ghosts and monsters, and most of them were superstitious, and few did not believe in these things. Li Zhi was nothing special, he also believed in them. But Changsun Wuji did not believe in such things, but according to what Queen Wang said, he could not come to a normal conclusion that had nothing to do with ghosts.
Changsun Wuji said in confusion: "Injustice? This is unlikely! Isn't that case settled? Even if there is an injustice, it should be...well, it may be the injustice of Xiao."
He remembered that the case was not very authentic. Some unjust souls might be nonsense. Someone should have done anything bad to avenge the little eunuch who was "small matters". People like eunuchs also form gangs, and they are different from ordinary people and have different ideas. Maybe they have a good relationship with that little eunuch, who is unable to think about it for a while, want to make some trouble and avenge your friends. Not to mention others, if Shi Zhongchen is harmed, Shi Aiguo will also take revenge. No matter whether you are the queen or the queen Hong, you still have to do it.
Changsun Wuji did not believe in the wronged soul, and he was more or less superstitious, but he did not believe in ghosts in this matter. If you want to talk about grievances, then during the Xuanwu Gate Incident, all the families who killed Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were all resentful women and ghosts, and why didn’t they see these ghosts coming to do anything? It was pure nonsense.
Wang Ping'an said again: "Man is a man's fierce man, and ghost is a woman's fierce man. There is a saying. If it is really caused by Concubine Xiao Shu's ghost, then why? What is she worried about? She wants to stay in the hall where she lives and refuses to leave, and she is still a disaster after sorting out?"
His words had strong psychological hints, which were completely guiding others to think about something. However, nowadays, no one understands psychology, and he is not sure about his guidance. He thought that his great sage was happening and was analyzing the characteristics of Xiao's ghost!
At this time, someone came outside to report that the imperial physicians had arrived. Li Zhi quickly called in, but they didn't have to treat Queen Wang. With Wang Ping'an there, of course it was not their turn.
Wang Ping'an was not idle, so he immediately found paper and pen to prescribe the prescription. When the imperial physicians came in, he handed the prescription to the imperial physicians and asked them to prepare medicine and decoct them, and sent the imperial physicians out. He prescribed an ordinary prescription for calming the spirit, which is a nourishing effect.
The imperial physicians came in and went out again. The imperial physician ordered Tao Judong to come in person. He took the prescription and turned it on it with the light. The prescription said that it was deer antler, Polygonum multiflorum, epimedium, dried ginger, licorice, jujube and other items.
Let other imperial physicians come around and see him. Tao Judong said: "This is a medicine to invigorate qi and nourish blood, strengthen the brain and calm the mind. It is the best to treat dizziness and insomnia. Isn't it said that the Queen's throat hurts, why did she prescribe this medicine? Is the Queen's throat hurting, unable to speak, or unable to sleep?"
The imperial physicians looked at me, and I looked at you, and they shook their heads together, but they couldn't figure out why, but Wang Ping'an prescribed medicine, there was no mistake, and it was done as soon as they were decocted. They took the prescription and rushed to decoct the medicine for Queen Wang.
In the hall, after Wang Ping'an's guidance, Changsun Wuji was still indifferent, but on the surface he was full of contemplation and seemed to be deeply convinced, but Li Zhi thought he understood!
Li Zhi said: "Xiao has something that I can't bear to leave? It's not necessarily true, but there is one person. Could it be that she can't bear to leave Sujie? Seeing that we re-arranged the palace, we were unhappy, so we came back to entangle people and refused to go to the underworld and reincarnate?"
Queen Wang said, although she knew that this was not the case, she was not afraid of not mentioning her, but she was also afraid of her. Women were already timid, and what Li Zhi said was indeed somewhat "reasonable". What if the ghost of Xiao's family really didn't leave, and what Shi Zhongchen also turned into a ghost and refused to leave, then will it be possible for people to live in the palace?
She said, "What should I do? Should I do it? Should I be a court of justice to save the dead? Otherwise, Xiao would not leave, and Shi Zhongchen was killed by her and became an unjust soul. Wouldn't it be bad if they fought in the palace?"
Li Zhi nodded quickly and said, "Yes, yes, that's true!" He said, he did have concerns about this, and he was still thinking, what if there was no one living in the palace, Wu Meiniang would do? He had to think about his little lover!
Changsun Wuji frowned and thought to himself: "It's really nonsense. It's just rain. If you want to talk about the wronged souls, you can scare you to death. Do you know what is under the foundation of the palace? It's a big cemetery. Emperor Wen of Sui killed a large group of people who opposed him, and blood flowed into a river. The bodies were buried under the palace. He was not afraid of living there or caring. If the dynasty changes, what are you afraid of?"
This palace is also the Daxing Palace, which was later renamed Tai Chi Palace. There was indeed a cemetery under the foundation, with countless corpses under it. When the new palace was built, it was said that it was special Feng Shui and there was nowhere to be reached, so Queen Dugu was not willing to build it here, but when she moved in, she found it was quite comfortable. She didn't mention it, so she pretended to forget it.
Where can the population be buried in the reproduction and reproduction of countless years? Where can there be no ghosts? There are definitely more ghosts than living people, and countless times more. Can you be afraid?
Changsun Wuji knew history. Seeing that Li Zhi and Queen Wang were afraid of being like this, he was angry and told the past of the former Sui Dynasty. It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t say it, but as soon as he said it, it was amazing. He almost scared Li Zhi and Queen Wang to faint, and even Wang Ping'an was creepy!
Wang Ping'an said: "No wonder that since the construction of this palace, strange things have happened. It turns out that there is a reason!"
For a moment, everyone began to think of the strange things that happened in the palace. From the past, Sui Dynasty, I have always thought of it until now!
Emperor Wen of Sui built this palace, but he did not die well; Emperor Yang of Sui also lost his country; Emperor Gaozu of Tang was forced to the palace, so he would not have had much pleasure before he died; and the late emperor, to be honest, did not have a good end!
All the emperors living in this palace did not die well, without exception!
Li Zhi and Changsun Wuji and others were thinking about the past, but Wang Ping'an not only thought about the past, but also the future. Li Zhi was plagued by all kinds of illnesses in his later years. In fact, to put it more realistically, he was also the king of the country who was destroyed and was taken away by his wife; and Wu Meiniang was also forced to resign. After her son Zhongzong ascended the throne, she suffered a lot and was killed by his wife and daughter. After his younger brother Ruizong ascended the throne, he was even more deadly. He lived a coward all his life and spent much longer as a prisoner than he was an emperor.
If Li Longji became the emperor, he would have caused an Anshi Rebellion, and he would not die well. Emperor Suzong of Tang ascended the throne, but how did he die? He was scared to death by the eunuchs. Before he died, the queen was dealt with by the eunuchs in front of him. If Emperor Daizong of Tang was the emperor who beat the golden branch, his daughter was beaten, and his son-in-law said that the emperor was nothing. Your father was willing to be, but my father didn't want to be! He had to pretend to be open-minded and pretend not to hear it. Emperor Dezong of Tang, a famous tragic figure in the Tang Dynasty, failed in reform and valued eunuchs, but he ended up completely in a depressed way. He was struggling to die.
Shunzong, Xianzong, Jingzong, and Wenzong all died directly or indirectly by eunuchs; while Tang Xuanzong was considered a wise ruler, but he died of poisoning after taking too much golden elixir; as for the future... he could not be considered an emperor; in the future, the country would be destroyed!
Thinking of this, Wang Ping'an couldn't help but turn blue and said, "It seems that there is really something wrong with the feng shui of this palace!"
Li Zhi and Changsun Wuji didn't know what happened next, but they thought about what happened before. They said, "It's true that there is a problem with Feng Shui!"
Queen Wang thought to herself: "Hey, aren't you talking about the danger I was in in the Enlightenment Hall? Why did it turn out to be a problem with the feng shui of the palace?" She didn't know much about history, and some things in the palace were taboo. She was not particularly clear about it, and she only cared about her own affairs and not about other things. So when the three ideas of the monarch and his subjects changed, she became confused.
This is called a breaking up the topic. It was originally a difficult thing to explain, but it was very twists and turns, which would involve many people. But when Wang Ping'an guided him, he talked about ghosts and gods, and now he talked about Feng Shui again. As a result, all the strange things in Shi Zhongchen's case were covered up. No one paid attention to the death of the old eunuch, nor did anyone pay attention to the fright of Queen Wang. At least now, no one pays attention to this clue!
Li Zhi remembered the former Sui Dynasty and the princes of the dynasty. Except for himself, they seemed to be not very good! He said: "It must be a problem of Feng Shui, otherwise it would not be like this. It must be yes, absolutely!"
Wang Ping'an and Changsun Wuji said with a head, "What the emperor said is extremely true, it seems that this is true!"
Queen Wang looked at the three of them and looked at the row of large toilets that were just moved in by Xiu'er. She said with a muddy head: "What should I do? If this is the case, there will be no one in the palace. Do you need to build a new one?"
Wang Ping'an and Changsun Wuji shook their heads together. With the current national strength, it is unrealistic to build a new palace. Wherever they are built, how big they are, it is all money. The Tang Dynasty is still resting and recuperating, not as rich as the Sui Dynasty. If you say you can build one, you can build one. Not to mention the palace, you can even build a city!
Li Zhi said, "It's better to build a new one. Just spend some money. This is for the sake of the country and country of the Tang Dynasty!"
Wang Ping'an grinned and thought, "Okay, if Shi Zhongchen dies, he will build a new palace. It's too exaggerated. Do you want to do your grandson's life together?"
The palace maid Xiu'er was guarding the toilet. She didn't dare to get too far away from the toilet, and was afraid of being disturbed by ghosts. She had a very long hair and short knowledge. Of course, she couldn't blame her. Anyone who had been in the world since she was a child would have to do this.
She knew some inside information about the case of Concubine Xiao, but she didn't know about the case of Shi Zhongchen. In her heart, she was afraid that there was a ghost that really caused trouble. The queen killed Concubine Xiao. Concubine Xiao wanted to seek revenge on her, but she found the wrong person and found Shi Zhongchen. But what if she came to look for it again, she would have a share. If she found her head... she wouldn't dare to think about it!
Seeing that everyone was hesitating, Xiu'er couldn't bear it anymore and said ignoring her identity: "How about doing a great ritual first, let Master Wang do it himself, and then find Master Xuanzang, which would be even safer!"
Queen Wang immediately rebuked, "I'm talking too much, there's no place for you to talk here!" After a pause, she said, "Your Majesty, why don't you do that?"
Li Zhi nodded immediately and said, "It's right that the new palace cannot be built immediately. This old palace still has people. Just do a great ritual. During the ritual, I went to hunt outside the city and left it to Wuyan."
Changsun Wuji frowned and thought to himself: "I won't really build a new palace, can you be rich?"
Wang Ping'an pressed his temple and thought, "What a mess. A case happened in the palace. Not to mention solving the case, but I asked me to do rituals with the monk. This is too foolish! Alas, if I had known this, I wouldn't guide the ghost, so I directly said that Shi Zhongchen could have spontaneously burned, saying that he had eaten his stomach and ate some weird insects, but it turned out that it was spontaneously burned. Everyone should remove insects in the palace. At worst, I could ask my younger brother Di Renjie to come to Tongtian Empire. Why bother to put such a lot of effort?"
Wang Ping'an swallowed and said, "Where is Li Ke's business? Who should be sent to announce the imperial edict? Shi Zhongchen spontaneously ignited... No, he was killed by a demon, who should be sent?"
Li Zhi shivered when he heard this. Shi Zhongchen was asked for his life by the evil ghost, but he was cooked and eaten. It was so scary! He said, "What do you think, who should I send?"
Changsun Wuji shook his head. Shi Zhongchen was a difficult person to replace, and it was really hard to find someone who was comparable to him.
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "Anyway, I have offended you, so it's better to offend me to the end. I don't know how I offended Shi Zhongchen, but he actually wanted to plot against me. This is confirmed. Maybe his brother knows this, maybe he wants to harm me too. I can't eat it too and I have to protect myself."
Wang Ping'an said: "It's better to send an old man in the palace and be the next chief executive!"
Changsun Wuji and Li Zhi said in unison: "Shi Aiguo?" The two nodded at the same time.
It's okay. Although Shi Aiguo can't match his brother, he is also qualified and even more considerate to the emperor's caring person. If he can't be fooled, he will not feel sorry for any accident!
