"Doing things?" The emperor was stunned for a moment, then slapped his palms and praised, "This is a good idea! Also, there are so many unlucky things in the palace during this time, so I should ask someone to do it."
Xiao Qi smiled and said: "Isn't it true, the prince was really wronged this time, maybe let the master come and see, and the prince's affairs will be resolved."
The emperor sighed: "You are really a kind mother, Qin Yi, he always looks at you in the wrong direction, and doesn't even show you face in front of outsiders. You still think about him like this, it's really hard for you."
Xiao Qi was originally smiling, but when she heard the emperor's words, her face became more and more stiff. Of course she knew that this was all reality, but when the emperor said it so bluntly, Xiao Qi would feel that she was very contemptuous. If it wasn't for knowing that the emperor would not have such a smart mind, Queen Qi almost thought it was deliberately disgusting her.
The emperor didn't know anything about Queen Qi's blockage, and he was still asking: "Empress, in your opinion, who is the right person to let in? Why don't you ask Huguo Temple to come?"
After Xiao Qi made up his mind, he smiled and said, "Why go all the way to find the eminent monk of Huguo Temple, I don't know how much time it takes to go back and forth. According to the concubine's body, it is good to find an eminent Taoist monk. "Your Majesty, do you remember Wang Ming bestowed Daoist Wang?"
The emperor had an impression of Wang Mingci. The emperor kept a lot of alchemists and often took the elixir offered by alchemists. Wang Mingci was one of them. The emperor said: "I remember that Wang Mingci was quite obsessed with alchemy, but I didn't expect him to be quite accomplished in Taoism."
"Of course." Empress Xiao Qi knew the emperor very well, and knew that the emperor was soft-hearted most of the time, so Empress Xiao Qi made a half proposal and half tough decision for the emperor, "Your Majesty, the concubine will send People go to ask Daoist Wang, and ask Daoist Wang to choose an auspicious day to enter the palace to cast spells."
"Okay." The emperor said happily, "You asked him to prepare more magic tools, just to help Lianbi get rid of bad luck. She has lost too much weight these days. She is pregnant, and unlike you, she needs to be extra careful. Precious."
Xiao Qi had another stumbling block in her heart. She swallowed the blood from her throat and forced a smile: "Okay, the concubine can save it."
With the emperor's personal consent, Xiao Qi later arranged the ceremony to be extra grand, and the national treasury spent a huge amount of money on it. On the day of the ceremony, in addition to the emperor and the empress, concubines and concubines in the harem, as well as several princes and princesses, will all appear. Wang Mingci, wearing a large Taoist robe, sat cross-legged in the center of the Taoist temple, muttering words. All of a sudden, he was shocked, the array disk crackled, and his eyeballs moved rapidly, terrifying. The women watching the ceremony were so frightened that they took a step back. It was the first time that Chu Jinyao saw this kind of battle, so she took a half step back vigilantly.
Qin Yi noticed her movement, and although he didn't turn his head, he held her hand precisely, and shook it soothingly. Chu Jinyao's heart calmed down and continued to look down.
Wang Mingci's convulsions finally stopped, he opened his eyes, and the child next to him immediately handed over the handkerchief. Wang Mingci took it and wiped the sweat that didn't actually exist on his forehead, then stood up solemnly, and said to the emperor: "Report to Your Majesty, the Empress, the poor Daoist just cast the spell, and it is true that there are evil things lingering in the palace. , the ominous omens of the past few days are all caused by it. It's just that his way is profound and his nature is cunning, so I am afraid it is extremely dangerous."
The emperor has listened to the sermons for many years, and he also trusts the words of these ghosts and gods. Hearing Wang Mingci say this, the emperor was startled and frightened: "There really is such a thing in the palace? I am the real dragon and emperor, what is this thing that dares to come to the palace?"
Wang Mingci stroked the beard and put on a high-level posture, shook his head and said: "The Holy One does not know, this kind of thing is yin fire, but it is extremely evil. Although the emperor is the honor of the ninety-five, the harem is inherently yin and less masculine, and there are always places where the emperor's dragon can't reach, so this thing is hidden in the harem, and it frequently harms people and provokes Something bad happened."
Most of the people present were female relatives, and now when I heard such a terrible thing came to the place where I lived, I was immediately frightened and pale. The emperor also panicked and asked, "Is there a way to solve it?"
Wang Mingci showed a dignified expression and said, "Take the courage of the poor."
Wang Mingci asked the boy to bring a dao stove and put it on the eye of the Yang fish array, and then pasted three talismans in the Yin fish. Wang Mingci held a peach wood sword, first danced a strange dance, then stretched the sword over the stove, chanting a spell that no one could understand, suddenly he shouted and stabbed the sword towards the talisman paper. Wang Mingci's sudden scream startled everyone, and before the concubines came over, he saw the talisman paper ignite a cyan flame. .
The people outside the dojo were so frightened that they retreated, and even King Su, a man who didn't believe in ghosts and gods, was taken a step back. King Su felt embarrassed, but fortunately, the people around him were all in shock, and no one paid attention to his actions.
A cyan fire suddenly burst out from the talisman, and Chu Jinyao was also frightened. Qin Yi stretched out his hand to protect Chu Jinyao and looked down at her inquiringly. Chu Jinyao calmed down and shook his head gently, Qin Yi then looked at the arena with confidence.
After experiencing the trick of burning fire, the attitudes of the people watching the ceremony have changed greatly. Concubine Shu didn't believe in these god-like things, but when she saw this scene, she also felt hesitant in her heart. As for the emperor, who was originally a believer, she has long since worshipped.
Wang Mingci asked Daotong to bring a urn, and with a loud shout, he held the talisman paper, and the erratic blue flame was held in this way. Wang Mingci made a move to end his work, and the emperor patted his hand and praised: "Okay, the Taoist priest really has a great way."
Xiao Qihou also said with a smile: "Isn't it true, there have been frequent accidents in the palace during this period of time, presumably this kind of thing is at work. Now that the monster has been subdued by Daoist Wang, the Daoist has done a good job in escorting, and it should be greatly rewarded."
The emperor also took it seriously. He has been eating the elixir of the alchemists all these years, but these people are not as capable as Wang Daochang. The emperor immediately decided to disperse those mediocre talents and replace them with Wang Mingci. The emperor asked: "The Taoist leader is indeed a person who has attained the Tao. I don't know how the leader cultivated, but can there be medicinal pills to help?"
The people present were all human beings. As soon as they heard this, they knew that the emperor planned to reuse Wang Mingci. The alchemists had a great influence on the emperor. They often accompany the emperor by offering medicines, and the emperor today is soft-hearted and very obedient. If Wang Mingci really replaces him and becomes the most trusted alchemist around the emperor, then Wang Mingci will immediately become the object of the harem of the previous dynasty.
Wang Mingci refused with the air of an expert, even if he deliberately made a look like a Taoist fairy, he couldn't hide his smugness in his eyes. Thirty years of Hedong and thirty years of Hexi, his luck really came.
The emperor was very excited when he had newly acquired a Taoist immortal. He remembered his ill-fated concubine, and immediately said: "The Taoist priest, come and see the concubine, she has been weakened recently, is she also entangled by something?"
Wang Mingci walked away in response, Xiao Qi squinted at the trembling concubine, and lowered his head to hide the irony at the corner of his eyes.
Wang Mingci looked at it for a while, and with a strange snort, the emperor immediately asked, "Daoist, what's the matter?"
"Concubine Lian has purple energy in her belly, obviously she is pregnant with a dragon seed, but she is still surrounded by yin, and she thinks that she has been entangled by Yin fire accidentally. I can't keep it."
The concubine screamed, and the mist filled her eyes immediately: "Your Majesty..."
The emperor looked at the favored concubine distressedly and asked, "Daoist priest, what solution do you have?"
"It's not impossible to crack it. Niangniangniang drink a few more talismans. However, the yin qi in Niangniangniang's body is not fundamental, even if it is removed, I'm afraid it will entangle in the future."
The emperor was taken aback: "This... Doesn't this mean that no one in the harem will be able to give birth safely in the future? How can this be good?"
"Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry, wait for the poor road to check carefully and find out where the Yin fire hides, and it will naturally be able to eradicate it."
When it comes to descendants, let alone the emperor, the concubines also wish Wang Mingci to watch it quickly. Wang Mingci slowly walked past the masters of the various palaces, and when he entered the East Palace, he suddenly let out a "hey".
"What's wrong?" the emperor asked quickly.
Wang Mingci hesitated to speak, Qin Yi protected Chu Jinyao with one hand, he quietly blocked in front of her, and asked sarcastically, "What Taoist Wang wants to say, just say it."
"His Royal Highness, please forgive Pindao's rudeness. It's just that this is about the emperor's dragon body, as well as the safety of the empress and the ladies in the harem. Pindao can only speak bluntly. What Pindao just caught was the mother fire and a bunch of children. The fire escaped. This fire is yin, the flame is cyan, and the East Palace is the main wood. This fire is hidden in the East Palace! It was concealed by the nobleness of the prince, and this escaped the ancestors of the Fengxian Palace. Blessed by dragon qi, it hides in the palace to do evil things, including pity concubines and concubines who have weak fetuses, and it is also their fault!"
After Wang Mingci said this, everyone's eyes on Donggong changed immediately. Concubine Li couldn't help caressing her lower abdomen, and looked vigilantly in the direction of Qin Yi and Chu Jinyao. Xiao Qi's eyes rolled around, suppressing the joy in his heart, and asked worriedly: "Daoist, the crown prince is the prince, and there is nothing wrong with it, but the son of His Majesty is equally important. What do you say, Taoist priest? ?"
Everyone looked at Wang Mingci eagerly, Wang Mingci stroked his beard and sated his appetite, and then said slowly: "There is a way, but it needs His Royal Highness to cooperate. Pindao painted three talismans with blood and pasted them on the main entrance of the East Palace. On the inner door and the main beam in the house, and then set up a magic circle outside the East Palace, His Royal Highness only needs to stay in the magic circle for seven, seven, forty-nine days, and the fire will naturally be eliminated. However, if it is destroyed in the middle, then the previous achievements will be forfeited. , I'm afraid it will be backfired."
A sneer flashed in Qin Yi's eyes, but he still held his breath and continued to listen to what the ox-nosed old man wanted to do. The emperor firmly believed in Wang Mingci's words. As long as the demon fire can be completely eliminated, it is not difficult to set up a magic circle in the palace, but the prince can't come out, so...
After Xiao Qi watched his words and expressions, he immediately pierced the emperor's mind: "The prince is the heir, and he can't delay the court every day. What if he hides in the East Palace for forty-nine days and delays state affairs? But if the prince is allowed to walk as usual , it doesn't matter to the concubine, I'm just afraid that the emperor will be contaminated by these dirty things. The emperor, what do you think we can do?"
The emperor also frowned, unable to think of anything. Xiao Qi then continued: "Daoist, can this matter be done by others?"
Wang Mingci frowned in embarrassment, and after a while, he seemed to have made up his mind and said: "It can be done, but the poor road has to pay more. The prince can't go wrong with his court affairs, it's better to let the prince and the prince's concubine move away temporarily. In the East Palace, Pindao casts a spell outside the palace, trapping Zihuo, and choosing another person to fast in the place of the prince should be able to resolve this disaster."
As soon as Chu Jinyao heard this, she laughed in her heart, and after talking for a long time, the original purpose was here. How to say it, the empress Sima Zhao's heart is too obvious. He even wanted to force them to move out of the East Palace. Although the Crown Prince lives where the East Palace is, there are already three or four generations of princes living in the Ciqing Palace. Generally speaking, this place has become the representative of the prince. The queen intervened in the passage and asked Qin Yi to move out. Who was the person who replaced Qin Yi after that? It is said that it is seven, seven, forty-nine days. I am afraid that it will be easy for them to move out of the Ciqing Palace. If they come back in the future, things will be troublesome.
When Concubine Shu heard this, she hurriedly said: "It is unheard of for someone to fast on behalf of the prince, but if the emperor and the queen insist, the concubines are also willing to relieve the emperor's worries. Prince Su is the prince's younger brother, and serving his elder brother is what he should do. It's better to let King Su go."
Concubine Shu's words were coincidental. First, she said that this method was unheard of, and she did not propose it by herself, so as not to offend Qin Yi, and then said that she was willing to share the emperor's worries, and recommended that King Su act on behalf of the prince to fast. This sentence not only has both the right and the left, but also won benefits for himself. It is really first-class cleverness.
It's a pity that even if Concubine Shu's reaction is fast, it can't be as fast as Xiao Qi Hou, Xiao Qi Hou said with a smile: "The date of King Su's wedding is just next month, and this... I'm afraid it won't be enough for forty-nine days."
Concubine Shu and King Su were instantly furious, and they couldn't even say anything to refute. In this way, there is only one suitable person.
Qin Yi and Chu Jinyao stood aside and silently enjoyed the big show. Before they agreed to move out, these few people had already bitten about who moved in. Concubine Shu was dissatisfied and wanted to fight for one or two, but unfortunately she was interrupted by Qin Yi before she could even say it out: "Everyone wait for a while, there is one more thing I don't know."
As soon as Qin Yi opened his mouth, all eyes focused on him. The emperor also looked over and said strangely, "What do you want to ask?"
Qin Yi looked at Wang Mingci, and a strange light flashed in his eyes: "Wang Taoist, do you think you have subdued that blue yin fire?"
Wang Mingci didn't expect Qin Yi to ask this, he stroked his beard and nodded with pride: "Exactly."
"That is to say, this kind of yin fire will never appear in the palace again?"
Wang Mingci paused and added: "Except for the cluster of fire in the East Palace that is still lurking, other places are no longer in the way."
"Okay." Qin Yicai didn't care what traps Wang Mingci dug, he accepted the matter in one go, and said, "The surname is Wang, remember, you said it yourself."
Wang Mingci was immediately displeased. The emperor treated him with courtesy. What was Qin Yi's attitude? He secretly said that the prince of this dynasty has not been eliminated by rumors, and his temper is more outrageous than his Laozi emperor.
Qin Yi had a bad face towards Wang Mingci, Wang Mingci endured the attack, and sure enough the emperor couldn't stand it anymore: "Qin Yi, what are you doing!"
Qin Yi ignored it. He asked the people behind him to bring an incense burner from the dojo, and then Xiao Linzi carefully brought a pot of water. Wang Mingci stood on the ground with the winning ticket in his hand, and when he saw Qin Yi come out with water, he suddenly had an ominous premonition.
Xiao Linzi lifted the lid of the pot and looked at the contents in the water, suddenly feeling a little troubled. This kind of thing is hard to come by. Now it is soaked in the water. When they were experimenting, they just fished it with their hands. But now, in front of so many people, it is too unsightly to put your hands into the pot and dig things out. .
Xiao Linzi hesitated for a while, but Chu Jinyao understood after thinking about it. She took the initiative and pulled a hairpin from her head: "Your Highness, if you want to take something from the water, maybe this will be of use."
Xiao Linzi immediately admired Chu Jinyao to the ground, the Crown Princess is simply a talent! After Qin Yi agreed, Xiao Linzi took the hairpin, carefully used the hairpin to pick out the granular things, then took a piece of paper and put the things on the ground. Xiao Linzi bowed to Chu Jinyao, apologized in a low voice, and then used Chu Jinyao's hairpin to burn it in the incense burner, carefully placing it on the pellets just taken out.
Everyone is confused about this, what is this going to do? The emperor also thought it was absurd, Xiao Qi rolled his eyes in disdain, and felt that Qin Yi was crazy, that's why he made these inexplicable actions. Xiao Qihou secretly looked at Wang Mingci with joy, and wanted to exchange joy with his collaborator, but unexpectedly found that Wang Mingci's face was extremely ugly, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying and terrifying.
What's wrong? Xiao Qi didn't know why, and before she could come up with a reason, a low exclamation suddenly broke out in the crowd.
When Xiao Qi turned back, he saw that a green fire was also lit in the dojo, and white smoke was also bubbling up. If it weren't for the ordinary white paper burning, and the person holding the golden hairpin next to set off the fire, Xiao Linzi would almost think it was Wang Mingci casting a spell.
Xiao Qi was stunned for a while, and cold sweat suddenly oozes from his back. How is this going? Wang Mingci clearly stated that this is a secret that is not shared, and no one in the world knows about it except him. Why can Qin Yi burn this kind of fire intact
Seeing this, Chu Jinyao lowered her head and smiled, everything was exactly as planned. Qin Yi also sank his face completely, and shouted at Wang Mingci with solemn eyes: "Wang, what else can you say? It is such a small stone that can ignite such a green fire, how dare you deceive the king and say This is your practice. You first deceived the emperor, then used ghosts and gods to incite people's hearts, and even tried to make Gu move out of the Ciqing Palace and shake the country. Wang Mingci, what should you do?"
Wang Mingci's face was horrified, but he still managed to maintain his high-handedness: "I don't know where His Royal Highness the Prince found this kind of thing, it has nothing to do with Pindao's conquest of demons. Pindao's methods are profound, and it is inevitable that they will be swayed by the same sect. People are jealous, the prince must have listened to the instigation of these people, and this is why he misunderstood the poor way."
Qin Yi sneered: "I haven't pleaded guilty. Come on, find the talisman on him."
This is what he saved his life, Wang Mingci naturally refused, but unfortunately, everyone feared him because of the emperor's attitude, and now the emperor is also suspicious, then Wang Mingci has no power to fight back in front of Qin Yi. The eunuch in the East Palace quickly found something, Xiao Linzi cooked it according to the law, heated one end of the golden hairpin, and then placed it on the talisman paper. Sure enough, the talisman papers were lit one by one, and the shape was exactly the same as when Wang Mingci was hunting ghosts.
What else these emperors didn't understand, he was furious, he threw his sleeves vigorously, pointed at Wang Mingci and shouted angrily: "Bold! How dare you use your tricks to deceive the king!"
What kind of yin fire mother fire son fire, in fact, Wang Mingci prepared in advance, deliberately put it out to scare people. Although I don't understand why this kind of thing burns a cyan flame, but the emperor has been in contact with alchemy and alchemists for many years, and he naturally knows that some things in this world are extraordinarily ingenious. It is not surprising. The emperor believed it with sincerity just now, but now that it is all fake, he is naturally more angry.
Wang Mingci was kicked to the ground by someone, and now he has completely lost his appearance of being a virtuous man. He trembled and crawled towards the emperor without any manners, trying to intercede: "Your Majesty, this is all a misunderstanding. Explanation... Empress Empress, you know what Pindao is capable of, Niangniang, you have to save Pindao!"
Xiao Qi backed away in disgust, avoiding this lunatic. Even if the emperor is good-natured and soft-hearted, he is still an emperor. When the emperor is angry, even Xiao Qi is also flustered. Her top priority now is to remove herself. This time, if Qin Yi fails, she cannot be angered by the emperor. As for Wang Mingci, Xiao Qi didn't care about his life or death at all.
"Your Majesty, this monstrous slander is slanderous, and the concubine cares about it, so he is deceived. Your majesty, the concubine just wants to share your worries, and doesn't know everything about this monstrous way!"
The emperor's anger returned to his anger, and he would not turn his anger on the beloved wife who introduced Wang Mingci. The emperor was about to comfort Lihua's little wife, when Qin Yi suddenly interrupted him: "Wait a minute, this matter is not over yet. Wang Mingci not only pretended to be a ghost today, but he also colluded with the ghosts in the palace before, causing chaos in the palace. The incident of the fire of the palace maid in Nishi in the past few days was the work of him and the ghost."
Xiao Qi was shocked when he heard it. How could it be possible that the matter of the palace maid was different, even Wang Mingci didn't know the reason, how could Qin Yi know
The author has something to say: You should have already seen that this mysterious little particle is white phosphorus (it’s really uncomfortable not to have a scientific name), and the ignition point of white phosphorus is 40 degrees, so in this chapter, after heating it with a hairpin or a peach wood sword Can burn. White phosphorus is actually yellow when it burns during the day, but the production method of white phosphorus here is special, and for artistic effect (green light is so cool), so the burning light is forcibly broken into cyan. To sum up in one sentence, the author takes it for granted throughout the whole process, and the students majoring in chemistry, please forgive me.
Next notice: How to produce the highly poisonous white phosphorus in the backward ancient times, and pretend to be a ghost, pretend to be superstitious, and even use it for military purposes (since writing this article, I have collected some strange knowledge points, such as using saltpeter to make ice Give yourself an alibi, such as making white phosphorus to frame the unpleasant concubine in the palace)
