Chapter 643 Search
The emperor was skeptical about Kong Chan's words.
But whether it is true or false, you will know it by just checking.
So the emperor immediately gave orders to start the investigation from inside the palace, and then to investigate outside the palace.
It would be best if no one used the art of exorcism.
But if there is, he will definitely cut that person into pieces!
Inside Qingge Palace.
In order not to disturb Concubine Xiao who was taking a nap, everyone tried to move as quietly as possible and not make any noise.
But at this moment.
Suddenly, Concubine Xiao's voice was heard from the bedroom.
"Baoqin!"
Baoqin quickly put down the work in her hands and ran into the bedroom.
She saw Concubine Xiao sitting on the bed, with disheveled hair and a face as pale as paper.
Baoqin asked hurriedly, "What happened to the queen?"
Xiao Xixi's voice was a little hoarse: "I just had a nightmare. I dreamed that someone dug out some bad things from the palace. I also dreamed that many people died."
If someone else said this, Baoqin would not take it seriously, but it was different for Concubine Xiao. Her dream might very well be a warning.
Baoqin immediately became nervous: "What should I do?"
Xiao Xixi jumped off the bed: "We have to find all the things in the East Palace before those people take action."
Baoqin quickly helped her put on her clothes.
There was no time to wash up, so Xiao Xixi rushed out of Qingge Palace in a hurry, followed by Baoqin and Qingsong carrying hoes and cloth bags.
Xiao Xixi ran to the Linde Hall in one breath.
When Mo Hua saw her coming, he hurriedly greeted her.
"Your servant pays respects to the Majesty."
Xiao Xixi didn't have time to pay attention to Mo Hua. She hurriedly ran to a sweet-scented osmanthus tree.
She pointed at the foot of the tree and said in a deep voice.
"dig!"
Qingsong and Baoqin started digging the soil with hoes without saying a word.
Seeing this, Mo Hua wanted to stop him, but Xiao Xixi pushed him away.
Xiao Xixi asked her to stand still.
Mo Hua was confused: "What are you doing, Madam? If you want this osmanthus tree, just tell me and I will have someone move it to you. Why are you..."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Baoqin's cry.
“Found it!”
Baoqin and Qingsong threw away their hoes, squatted on the ground, dug up the soil with their hands, and dug out a red cloth bag from the pit.
Open the red cloth to reveal a strangely shaped clay sculpture.
This thing makes people feel uncomfortable just looking at it.
Even though Mo Hua didn't know the art of exorcism, he was still shocked when he saw such a strange thing.
"W-What is this? Why is it here?"
Xiao Xixi took the clay sculpture and said, "This is called the evil spirit. If you bury it in the ground, it will make people sick and shorten their lifespan."
There is a piece of paper on the back of the clay sculpture with a string of birth data written on it.
As the head maid of the prince, Mo Hua naturally knew the prince's birth date and horoscope. She was sure that the horoscope on the straw man was not the prince's.
This shows that this evil god is not targeting the prince.
However, Mo Hua did not feel relieved, but became even more frightened.
She asked timidly, "Whose birth date is this?"
Xiao Xixi uttered two words faintly.
"emperor."
She actually didn't know the emperor's birth date, but the nightmare just now told her that these things were all directed at the emperor.
When the other three heard this, their faces turned pale with fear.
Qingsong's legs went limp and he just collapsed to the ground.
Mo Hua reacted the fastest: "We didn't make this thing. Someone must have been plotting to frame the prince!"
Xiao Xixi threw the clay sculpture into the cloth bag and then threw it to the ground.
There was a crisp clang sound.
The clay sculpture in the cloth bag was smashed into pieces.
Baoqin asked with difficulty: "Will everything be alright now?"
Xiao Xixi shook her head: "This is just one of them."
She strode towards the bedroom.
Baoqin pulled Qingsong to chase after him.
This time Mo Hua didn't dare to stop him and followed with a pale face.
Xiao Xixi walked into the bedroom and drove out the palace maid who was cleaning.
She opened the door of the closet, carried all the clothes inside to the bed, and searched through them.
Soon she found a straw man from her clothes.
The straw man had a headband on his head and an iron nail stuck in his body.
This thing is full of evil at first glance.
Xiao Xixi threw it into the cloth bag.
Baoqin's hands were shaking as she held the cloth bag.
She asked in a tone full of trepidation.
"My lady, can these things really kill people?"
Xiao Xixi glanced at her and said, "What are you thinking? If you can kill people with these broken things, wouldn't the world be in chaos?!"
After hearing what she said, Baoqin was no longer so scared.
This kind of witchcraft is simply used to fool people, but some people are willing to believe it.
Then they found three more straw men from other places in the Linde Hall.
Mo Hua didn't dare to ask any more questions and simply stuffed all the straw men into the stove in the small kitchen and burned them all.
As for the clay sculptures that were broken into pieces, they were thrown into the pond.
Mo Hua thought that everything would be fine, but then he heard Concubine Xiao say.
"There are some elsewhere."
They left the Linde Hall and began searching the East Palace.
Based on the scenes in her nightmare, Xiao Xixi found the places where the lucky charms were buried one by one.
Just as they destroyed all the lucky charms they had found, the Imperial Guards rushed into the East Palace.
Xiao Xixi's heart sank when she saw this.
The other party came too fast.
She didn't even have time to check the entire East Palace.
Although she had nightmares as a warning, the fragments in the dreams were too confusing and she was not sure if she had missed anything?
If anything is missed, they are done for.
The leader this time was none other than the commander of the Imperial Guard, Xiao Lingfeng.
When Xiao Lingfeng saw his daughter, he immediately stopped and bowed to her.
"This humble general pays respect to the Concubine."
Xiao Xixi asked: "What are you going to do by mobilizing so many troops?"
Xiao Lingfeng said vaguely, "Something was lost in Weiyang Palace, and His Majesty ordered a palace-wide search."
The emperor has issued an edict, and Xiao Xixi, as a concubine of the crown prince, certainly cannot stop it. She can only make way and let the imperial guards search.
The first place to be searched was the Linde Hall.
Fortunately, all the lucky charms in the Linde Hall had been found and cleared away by Xiao Xixi. The guards searched twice but found nothing, so they withdrew.
They then went to the Jinfeng Palace where Concubine Li was.
Concubine Li was startled when she saw the guards who suddenly broke in.
"What are you doing?"
Xiao Lingfeng repeated what he had just explained to Xiao Xixi.
The guards searched again.
Still nothing was found.
Then came the Jade Lotus Palace and the Wanhe Palace...
Finally it was Qingge Palace where Xiao Xixi lived.
Xiao Lingfeng first took a look at the situation inside the house, and it turned out that this was where his daughter lived.
It looks quite warm.
He said to the guards.
"Be gentle, don't break anything."
The guards responded in unison: "Yes!"
With Xiao Lingfeng's reminder, the guards indeed slowed down their movements a lot.
They first searched all the places in the house where they could hide things, but found nothing.
Then they went to the backyard.
When they saw the vibrant vegetable garden in the backyard and a large group of lively chickens, ducks, pigs and geese, they were collectively petrified.
Come, say it out loud with me: Empty Zen is trash!
……
It's the end of the month again. If you don't use your monthly tickets, they will be invalid. If you still have unused monthly tickets, use them quickly. Xianyu thanks everyone for their support~
