Chapter 391 Everyone Dies
Three months ago, King Sheng first made his fifth son Xiao Lin the King of Xuancheng, and then granted him a marriage to Ye Bingshang, the eldest daughter of the Ye family, as his concubine.
Finally today, Xiao Lin will marry Ye Binning at Xuancheng Palace.
Because he was the civil and military man of the Sheng Kingdom, and even King Sheng was optimistic about the heir to the throne, so even though Ye Bingshang was just a concubine, her status was only a concubine.
But at Xiao Lin's request, this marriage was far more grand than marrying a royal concubine.
Today, gongs and drums were rising to the sky inside and outside the Xuancheng Palace, firecrackers were blasting, and the capital was covered with red makeup.
Carriages lined up from the street to the end of the street in an orderly manner, and countless red flowers were spread along the roadside.
Even the trees all over the city are tied with countless red ribbons, and the roads are lined with soldiers maintaining order. There is an endless stream of people, shoulder to shoulder, everyone stretching their heads to watch this rare sight. grand wedding.
The atmosphere in the Xuancheng Prince's Palace was very lively, with prominent figures from all over the capital gathered, and they were chatting with each other in groups of two or three.
At this time, Yang Jiao was still wearing a gray and white floral robe. This slightly elegant dress looked particularly cold and cold when worn on him.
He stood quietly in a corner, silently watching the guests coming and going in the mansion. Now, there was no figure of King Sheng on the court.
Since Yang Jiao planted a demon seed in his body before, he knew why he didn't come.
What I thought was that since my son used such grand etiquette to marry the daughter of the Ye family, he would not show up. Anyway, he was only a concubine, so as to prevent the Ye family from being arrogant and spoiling her even more. Think of it as knocking.
"Tantai Jin, I finally found you. It turns out you were hiding in this corner. No wonder I didn't see you after searching for a long time."
Suddenly, Li Susu walked over quickly. When she saw that Yang Jiao didn't pay any attention to her, she directly pulled her arm and walked towards the lobby, and said with a smile:
"It's really lively today. All the dignitaries in the capital are here. Don't hide aside, come and feel the warm atmosphere."
Yang Jiao said calmly:
"Ye Xiwu, haven't you heard this saying? People's joys and sorrows are not the same, so I just think they are noisy."
Suddenly, the smile on Li Susu's face froze.
"This little devil is really determined."
Not long after the two entered the lobby, a fat-headed, arrogant young man walked in swaggeringly.
When people on the field saw him, they all saluted.
When Li Susu saw this plump young man, he immediately thought of something:
"He is the fifth prince Xiao Liang who has been bullying Tantai Jin."
Suddenly, Xiao Liang seemed to see something and walked over arrogantly:
"Hey, Tantai Proton is here too, as well as Miss Ye Er."
"Since Miss Ye Er married Proton"
After a pause in his tone, he revealed a hint of vulgarity, looked at Li Susu with a squinting look, and then said:
"Miss Ye Er is even more charming!"
After hearing this, Li Susu narrowed her eyes slightly and calmly asked Yang Jiao to block most of her body, saying:
"My maid sends my regards to His Royal Highness King Wu Ning,"
Xiao Liang raised his eyebrows slightly and said with an indifferent expression:
"No gifts, no gifts."
He glanced at Yang Jiao again and said seriously:
"Proton, Jingguo respects black, but you are dressed like this today. What does it mean?"
"Maybe he has a different opinion towards Xiao Lin, or maybe he has resentment in his heart."
Xiao Liang looked like he suddenly realized something:
"I have remembered it. I have seen you show your attentiveness to Ye Bingshang. Now that the woman you love has become someone else's bride, she must be both."
He clicked his tongue and shook his head:
"Xiao Lin is a prince, and you are also a prince. He has both power and sex, but your life is worse than that of a dog."
"Oh, you must be feeling extremely uncomfortable at this moment."
Li Susu on the side heard this and couldn't help looking at Yang Jiao, secretly saying:
"The little devil won't get angry."
Immediately, she firmly grasped Yang Jiao's arm with both hands and said sarcastically:
"His Royal Highness King Wu Ning must have eaten too many pickles today, and his mouth is so smelly."
No one dared to offend anyone. Xiao Liang, who was domineering and arrogant, could not hold back and trembled with anger:
"Ye Xiwu, you, you. How dare you talk to me like that."
The sudden movement immediately attracted the attention of everyone around them. It was only because of Xiao Liang's identity that they maintained due etiquette. After that, they naturally continued to chat and laugh with their good friends.
After all, everyone present had heard of King Wu Ning's distasteful temper.
After a while, Yang Jiao said calmly:
"Your Majesty Fifth Highness, today is a major event for Your Highness Sixth Prince's marriage. If you want to continue making trouble, even if His Highness Sixth Highness is a good-natured person, he will still get angry."
"When the time comes, are you sure you can really stand the accountability from His Highness the Sixth Prince, the Ye family, and even King Sheng?"
Xiao Liang's eyes flashed and he snorted coldly:
"Hmph, you are a coward who relies on human power. No, any dog in Jingguo is smarter than you."
After he finished speaking, he turned and left.
"Tantai Jin, don't get along with him. He is just a despicable and dirty person."
Li Susu looked at Yang Jiao's indifferent expression and quickly comforted him.
Yang Jiao said lightly:
"I once saw this sentence in the library, if the heart does not die, the Tao will not arise; if desire is not quenched, the Tao will not exist."
"Don't get entangled with bad people and bad things, and don't get too entangled with yourself."
"Free and leisurely outside the three realms, free and happy in the five elements."
After he finished speaking, a hint of darkness flashed through his eyes.
"This is quite clear. It would be great if you think so."
Li Susu's face relaxed.
Five days later.
In the back house of Ye Mansion, there is a pavilion.
Chuntao said to Li Susu with fear on her face:
"Miss, when I was out today, I heard people in the streets saying that the prince-in-law Gao Jie, the Marquis of Jinling Qiu Yu, Cheng Peng, the son of the eldest princess Yongxing, and the fifth prince Wuning Wang Xiaoliang."
"These people all died of illness two days ago, and they died miserably."
Li Susu frowned slightly:
"I heard from my eldest brother that they had some kind of strange disease a few days ago for some unknown reason. Not only were their bodies weak, they would vomit whatever they ate, and their internal organs seemed to be biting by something, causing them to moan in agony all the time. wailing."
"Later, I first invited the imperial doctor, but when he saw that the imperial doctor was helpless, he thought it was a witchcraft, and then asked Pang Yi to come and exorcise the evil."
"As a result, nothing wrong was found."
"Finally, from what Pang Yizhi said, I'm afraid it's not just some monster causing trouble, but it's more likely that the devil secretly cast an evil spell and plotted against several of them."
Chuntao nodded repeatedly after hearing this:
"That's right, that's right. I heard some rumors in Shengdu. His Royal Highness King Wu Ning and others lost weight in a short period of time and turned into skin and bones. It was like the bite of maggots on the tarsal bones, eroding the five internal organs. At the time of the six internal organs, it even swallowed up all the muscles and muscles in their bodies inch by inch."
"It happened the night before yesterday. The howl they made, like a ghost demanding life, not only resounded through the mansion where they lived, but also other people around them woke up from their sleep."
"The residence of the Marquis of Jin Ling is not far from our Ye family. I don't know how many people were awakened by the fright at that time. Not only our Ye family were panic-stricken, but all the princes and nobles around here were also uneasy."
"In the end, it was Dr. Pang who set up a formation to isolate the howling sound."
When Chuntao said this, she was mysterious and said vividly:
"I also heard that after the muscles and muscles in His Highness King Wu Ning and others were devoured by unknown monsters, they vomited out pieces of bones and internal organs from their bodies."
"A total of 206 bones, heart, liver, spleen and stomach were all vomited out. Even so, after only a layer of skin was left, they were not dead yet. They just kept moaning in extreme pain."
"After more than half an hour, an inexplicable black fire suddenly appeared, burning His Highness King Wu Ning and others to death."
When Li Susu heard this, he couldn't help asking:
"How do you know so clearly?"
Chuntao explained:
"It's not just me, the entire Shengdu City is rumored to have a nose and eyes."
Li Susu shook his head slightly:
"Yes, more than a dozen princes and nobles died suddenly, and the culprit was a devil. People are talking too much, so it is inevitable that the news will not be spread."
Thinking of this, a look of deep thought appeared on her face, and she suddenly said:
"Where is my uncle now?"
Chuntao replied:
"It's still the same as before, either copying scriptures in the library or reading books."
When Li Susu heard this, Liu Yemei gradually frowned. It was not like she had never doubted this little devil in the past few days.
After all, it was too much of a coincidence. The people who died this time all had a grudge against him, as well as all the abnormalities in the people under Ye Mansion, Manager Wu's sudden death, and Yue Yingxin's unexplained disappearance.
But after being inseparable for several days, I couldn't find anything wrong.
He even used talismans to explore the sea of qi in the little devil's dantian, but there was no trace of cultivation.
So, no matter how you look at it, it can't be him.
Immediately, Li Susu also thought that she was being careless, but she was worried and walked to the library alone.
