Chapter 770: Big Case - Assassin?
"I know that there are still some real monks who have not come, and Yang Dongzi of Sanyuan Palace has not come. But I'm still worried. Yun Xi lowered his head, completely lacking the momentum of driving out the Taoist priests and monks just now, and said very dejectedly.
Needless to say, Yunxi also understands that there are three Taoist temples and three temples registered in the imperial court near Guangzhou City, and there are many private temples that have not been registered in the imperial court. Most of these Taoist monks who came today are such people who have a private temple and private view, just to avoid 'inspection' and pay money in the big temple and Daguan to put their names on the list, and according to the regulations of the Ming Dynasty, they should be ordered to return to the world; most of the most famous real people and Zen masters who know magic will wait until tomorrow because of the long journey, so that Xiyi has not been awakened today does not mean that she will not be awakened.
But Yun Xi is still worried, very worried. He never knew that he would be so worried about Xiyi.
Seven years ago, Xiyi entered the palace three days after he and Xiyao got married and became his concubine. Because she was selected as the concubine of the imperial grandson with her sister, she looks exactly the same, even if her temperament is not much different from Xi Yao, from the beginning, she seems to be Xi Yao's trumpet, and she does not have a strong sense of presence in the palace, and the other concubines and palace maids and eunuchs are all talking to her when they want to say something to Xi Yao but don't dare, and they can't think of her on weekdays.
Yun Xi would not be like this, and because of her temperament, she was very fond of her, but she always thought that just like ordinary emperors doting on their young and beautiful concubines, they might empathize with women with similar temperaments when they meet more young and beautiful women with similar temperaments, until today.
It wasn't until today that he found that he had already fallen in love with Xiyi, a woman who seemed a little naΓ―ve on weekdays, was not easy to calm down when encountering things, but was very sensible, rather than a young and beautiful woman who might be replaced by a younger and more beautiful woman. Her eyes and smile have been deeply imprinted in his mind, and she has become an irreplaceable person in his life.
Yun Xi sat on the chair and looked back on his past with Xi Yi, from the time she just entered the palace seven years ago, to the birth of Wen Qi, and then to yesterday, he thought about their time together from beginning to end. Before he knew it, he was already in tears.
The palace maids and eunuchs around who saw this scene immediately showed an incredible expression, and they were all stunned for a while, staring at Yun Xi in a daze.
It was Wang Xi who reacted first, took a step closer to Yun Xi to block the eyes of others, and softly woke him up who was immersed in his thoughts.
Yun Xi immediately reacted, wiped her face lightly, turned her head to look at Xi Yi's still unconscious face, whispered a word, and then stood up and walked out of her dormitory.
At this time, the other palace maids and eunuchs reacted and broke away from the stunned state; But they still have some distractions.
Early Spring looked at Yun Xi's back, then looked back at Xi Yi, and thought, "Second Miss, it is not in vain that you can marry someone like Your Majesty in this life." β
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
After that, Yun Xi had dinner under the persuasion of Li Sha'er, Wang Xi and others, and went to Xiyi's bedroom to watch her. However, he is the emperor after all, although he is really worried about Xiyi, but intellectually he also understands that it is useless for him to worry about it; More importantly, he understands very well that if he is sick, no one will care about Xiyi, everyone will revolve around him, and he will take care of his body whether it is for himself or Xiyi.
So Yun Xi came out of Xiyi's dormitory after arriving at the beginning of the year and went to rest on his weekdays.
But although he went to rest, he lay on the bed and couldn't sleep, thinking about the evil art in Xiyi's place, and also thinking about the case of harvesting and cutting.
There is a matter of collecting the souls of the living beings in the case of harvesting and mutilation, and today's Qian Minglin's report also mentioned that the appearance of them mutilating the corpses of those victims is also a magic trick.
Therefore, Yun Xi deduced that the evil art in Xiyi's house and the mastermind behind the Caisheng torture case are inseparable.
But there are also problems with this. Because from common sense, it is useless to hurt a concubine next to the emperor, except for a very few cases in history, few emperors will be in a coma or near death because of a concubine. Although he Yunxi is good to Xiyi, he doesn't look like a favorite, so the person who falls into this evil spell in Xiyi should not put a spell on her in order to hurt him.
But if it's not for him, then for whom? It's all for Xiyi herself? The enemy of the Xue family? That's not right, the enemies of the Xue family should deal with Xue Ning or Xue Xiran and Xue Xiyang, they are not only members of the Xue family, but they are also much easier to deal with outside the palace, as long as they have to deal with Xiyi, they can deal with them.
Yun Xi even wondered if it was a competition for favor among the women in the palace. But he didn't think so. First of all, the queen is Xi Yao, and it doesn't make much sense to kill her sister; Secondly, his concubines are not from high families except for Miaojin, and this is Guangzhou, even Miaojin's maiden family, the Xu family, cannot have the power to order people to perform evil arts.
'There is only one exception,' Yun Hee looked sideways? br/>

But it doesn't make sense. Yun Xi pondered: "She is just a concubine now, and she should understand that she can't be the queen no matter what, and there is no need to get rid of Xiyi." β
Yun Xi couldn't think of a clue when he was lying on the bed and turned backwards, so he turned around and said to Li Sha'er beside him: "Sha'er, do you say that Xiyi's evil spirit and Caisheng's torture case have anything to do with it?" β
Li Sha'er didn't want to discuss the problem of covering up at night, she still wanted to sleep; But she didn't dare not answer the emperor's question, so she could only say: "Your Majesty, the concubines think that most of them have something to do with it, but the truth is not clear, and they always feel that something is wrong." β
Li Sha'er also thought of what Yun Xi thought of in the afternoon: no matter what the purpose of the person who performed the evil magic behind the scenes, there was no need to target Xiyi, unless this person only had a blood feud with Xiyi. But regardless of whether there is a person who only has a blood feud with Xiyi, Xiyi, who has never left the capital before, cannot have such an enemy in Guangzhou. Besides, it's impossible to have a blood feud with her.
The two of them talked for a while, Li Sha'er looked at the moonlight coming in through the glass window, estimated that it was already time, and said to Yun Xi: "Your Majesty, let's think about these things tomorrow." β
Yun Xi was also a little sleepy, and when she heard Li Sha'er's words, she knew that it was late, so she stopped talking, closed her eyes and began to sleep.
But that night he had another nightmare. Probably because he was talking about the mutilation before going to bed, he thought of the many mutilated corpses with mutilated limbs, even though he had not seen the bodies of the victims with his own eyes.
Then he dreamed that Xiyi was lying unconscious on the bed, and dreamed that she suddenly opened her eyes like Jia Baoyu was meeting five ghosts and said, "Your Majesty, our fate in this life ends here." β
Yun Xi dreamed of this and suddenly woke up, with cold sweat on his forehead.
He immediately realized that he was dreaming, not what was really happening, sighed, picked up the handkerchief beside the bed, wiped his sweat, and closed his eyes to go back to sleep.
But he couldn't sleep after that, not because he didn't want to sleep, but because of external reasons: the window kept 'banging', like something wanted to break the window and get in.
And the sound is completely irregular, sometimes it is very dense, then it suddenly disappears, and after a while it starts again.
The sudden sound puzzled him, so he gently left the bed and put on his clothes, first looked out through the window, but found nothing, and then opened the door and let the eunuch who was in the outhouse go out into the courtyard.
The eunuch was very frightened and went to the outer courtyard to take a look, but said nothing in return. However, even when he said, "Your Majesty, there are no people or livestock in the courtyard," he was very afraid, apparently thinking of something that did not conform to science.
But since he didn't say anything, the sound of hitting the window stopped at this time, and Yun Xi went back to the back room to continue sleeping.
But soon there was another 'thud' on the window, and it stopped and stopped, which made his nerves tense again.
Yun Xi couldn't help but think of 'ghosts' like the eunuchs guarding the outhouse. β
Because science has theoretically deduced that it is possible to travel through time and space, as long as he passes through the 'wormhole', so although he came to Daming abnormally, he does not believe in the theory of ghosts and gods very much, and can only say that he believes in one point and doubts in nine points, which is similar to most people who have read books in this era.
But today, he had already believed in the theory of ghosts and gods because he couldn't wake up when he saw Xiyi lying on the bed with his own eyes, obviously because he had fallen into evil magic, coupled with the strange scene outside the house at this moment, the point of believing in the theory of ghosts and gods in his heart suddenly expanded to five points or more.
He could only continue to comfort himself: "According to the traditional Chinese Taoist thought, the person who sits on the throne has the luck of the whole country, the ghosts and gods dare not approach, the gods cannot be injured, and even if there are ghosts, they cannot be hurt." β
In order to feel more at ease, he even took out a short tong from the side of the bed. This is a very exquisite gun made by the craftsmen who studied firearms under him under the command of the imperial superintendent, which is very powerful, and can be aimed within twenty or thirty zhang, but because it is purely handmade, and some small parts even the most skilled craftsmen take a long time to grind out, so it does not have promotion value.
Yun Xi unwrapped the holster of the gun and held the gun in his hand with a lot of peace of mind - it is said that weapons such as knives, guns, swords, halberds and other weapons have the effect of suppressing evil spirits.
But the 'thump' from the window kept on disrupting his spirit and making him more and more nervous.
At this moment, "stinging...... The sound of stabbing ......" sounded again in the window, like the sound of a sharp blade cutting through glass; And from his point of view, there was no one outside the window, and Yun Xi immediately shouted, "There are assassins!" βjs3v3
