When the snow in Hexi was full of snow, Chang'an City ushered in the first snow of this year. The belated snow was extremely heavy. This winter, Chang'an City was surprisingly cold, and all kinds of strange things emerged one after another, and chaos arose.

The female cat from the family Cao family in Anyifang, south of the city actually gave birth to a cat with only one eye on a snowy night. Because the nose hole grew into the mouth, it died less than a day after birth. A few days after the cat died, the water in a well north of the west of Yongningfang Cross Street suddenly rolled up, steaming hot, and it was soaking the water up, which caused people from all directions to rush. Because there were too many people, the neighbors had to seal the well.

If these things that were born outside were just a sensation and no movement was made, then something that was born in the Daming Palace would be horrifying.

A small eunuch in the Escort Province who was responsible for cleaning the stadium in front of Zhonghe Hall was very distressed by the leaves flying in late autumn. Although the stadium has been closed since the beginning of winter, the provincial officials inspected it more strictly than usual. In order to avoid being hit by a board less, he had to get up in the middle of the night every day and clean until dawn.

At the third update of the day, he got up early and went to the stadium to clean the fallen leaves. Suddenly, there was a strand of head on the ground. At first, he didn't care much. He thought it was left by the palace maid when she came here to play, so he mixed the leaves and swept it. Unexpectedly, the next day, he cleaned it and found another strand of head. This time the eunuch muttered in his heart, thinking who couldn't get along with him, and deliberately messed with me. So he didn't sleep on the third night, and arrived there at the first day, put out the lantern and sat on the ground to see who was doing something bad behind him.

Although it was cold and cold, the little eunuch could not resist the sleepiness that came, so she sat in a pile of dead leaves and took a nap. At the end of the second update, a gust of wind suddenly blew, and the leaves were rustling. A scattered palace maid walked over slowly. Less than two feet away from the little eunuch, she squatted down and touched the ground.

The little eunuch was so scared that he pushed the alveolar to his death. His blood in his body solidified. He could still speak. Not only could he not speak, but his legs were also numb and his hands were numb, so he could not move. The palace maid quickly touched him, suddenly raised her head and asked him gloomyly: "Little Langjun, have you seen my head?"

When the little eunuch heard her speak, he finally got it in one go. He replied tremblingly: "I didn't... I didn't see any head, but I only saw a lock of head." The palace maid suddenly screamed strangely when she heard this and said sternly: "That's my head. My head was cut off by the black-hearted ghost, and only this lock of head is left. You give me my head, you give me my head!"

At this time, a gust of wind blew, blowing away the chaos that the palace maid was covering her face. The little eunuch clearly saw that the palace maid who asked her to have a head actually had no face. Her head turned out to be the head of a dog.

There is another version of the same absurd story, which is about the experience of a eunuch who got up early to sweep. This little eunuch was on duty in front of Hanyuan Hall. At the end of the second day, a gust of cold wind blew, which made the bones cold. Then he heard a strange sound, like the sound of a silkworm eating mulberry leaves, hissing. When he started to sing the lantern, he couldn't help but feel creepy and pale. He saw hundreds of headless ghosts trembling towards him. The hissing sound was the sound of his feet rubbing against the stone slabs against his boots.

The headless ghosts muttered as they walked, "You have a head, I have no head, you give me my head back, I give me my head back." The eunuch was so scared that his hair stood up. He threw the broom and turned around and ran away. However, when he turned around, he was even more scared. It turned out that a female ghost with disheveled head was standing behind him, pulling his head down hand by hand, laughing at him while pulling it, and saying, "Take my head, I'll pull your head."

The eunuchs in the palace couldn't help but talk, saying that the limelight had changed, and even Wu Cairen came out to seek his life. People insisted that the female ghost was Wu Cairen who was executed after the Ganlu Incident. Wu Cairen's father and brother were both court officials. Because of the Ganlu Incident, they were implicated by Qiu Shiliang and were ordered to take the eunuchs to take the poisoned wine. Wu Cairen refused to obey the imperial edict and ran around the palace, shouting as he ran: "The eunuch party is in chaos, I want to see the emperor."

The eunuch hated her and ordered the guard to grab her head and pour poisonous wine into her mouth. The guard was too strong and Wu Cairen struggled and strongly, so that most of the Xiu was pulled down. It is said that Wu Cairen glared at the eunuch who executed her and said, "Tug my head, I pull your head. In Gengshen, the blood is overwhelming." The eunuch also said toughly: "Before pulling my head, you should find your head first."

In order to prevent Wu Cairen from becoming a demon after his death, the eunuch cut her head and sewed a dog's head on the body to bury it. He also asked the sorcerer to tamper with her coffin, so that she would never live. It is said that the eunuch who executed Wu Cairen was Qiu Shiliang's confidant, Chang Xuanhua, the housekeeper of Qiu Zhuang.

It is the end of the world, and monsters are always prosperous.

Such rumors actually broke out in the dignified Daming Palace, which disturbed all directions of the murderer. Li Ang, who was ill in bed, was furious and ordered the Right Army to inquire about the rumor-mongering and severely punish the rumor-mongering. Yu Hongzhi turned the Daming Palace upside down, but he did not find any evidence. He also reviewed the Tai Chi Palace and Xingqing Palace, and finally seized the real murderer and handed it over to Jingzhao Yin for interrogation. The young eunuchs who spread rumors confessed to the spread rumors. Unexpectedly, when the court meeting, the Privy Councilor Liu Hongyi suddenly accused Yu Hongzhi, saying that he was trying to get rid of his life and found a few scapegoats to work.

Yu Hongzhi was anxious and shouted that the little eunuchs would go to the hall so that they could confront each other in court. Under the auspices of Prime Minister Li Yu, the little eunuchs were taken to the hall. In front of the seriously ill emperor and the civil and military officials of the court, the little eunuchs would turn their confessions in court. They shouted for justice, saying that Yu Hongzhi used to torture torture them and falsely accused them.

Yu Hongzhi was difficult to tell the difference, and he was afraid to apologize for guilt. He was punished by a demotion of two levels and a one-year salary.

In this small battle, Yang Fei defeated the eunuch party again and again. It seemed that the position of the crown prince of Chen, Li Chengmei, was a little more stable. After suffering from torture, Yu Hongzhi had to let go of his dignity and walked into Qiu Shiliang's duty room again and humbled, and said as sweet as honey as honey. The two lieutenants of the imperial guards gathered together and muttered for an afternoon. At dusk, Yu Hongzhi finally made up his mind. He put on a cloak and said to Qiu Shiliang: "This time, we will never make any decisions anymore. You are the only one who can tell everything. Even if Li Rong has many things, he is better than letting the Yang Party take power."

The lieutenant of the two armies was determined to support the security guard Li Rong as the crown prince. The news soon reached Yang Fei. Since Li Ang was seriously ill, Yang Fei had not seen him for more than a month. Her nephew, who was more than 20 years older than her, the core of the Yang Party, and Pingzhang Shi Yang Sifu said with some concern: "If Your Majesty never sees the Empress, what can we rely on to make Your Majesty change his mind? Is it possible to rely on my nephew alone? I was stared at by Li Yu and his followers in the court, making things difficult for me everywhere, and I was stormed by Liu Hongyi in the palace. I wanted to see the emperor but could not get it, and I was attacked by internal strife, what hope would I have?"

Yang Sifu suggested that Concubine Yang be condescendingly to see Yang Hao again, and advised him to change his mind and help Li Chengmei ascend the throne. Yang Sifu said explicitly: "I heard that Li Yan sent Wang Fu'er to Liquan and stayed in the camp for six days and six nights. King Ying knew that the crown prince had no hope and tried his best, but we were looking forward and unable to bear the capital."

After hearing this, Concubine Yang was trembling with confidence. She angrily scolded Yang Sifu and said, "What do you mean? You asked me to follow the example of Wang Fu'er, wash myself and give it to him, shake his tail and beg for mercy, and ask me to sell myself for honor?"

When Yang Sifu saw her angry, he quickly apologized and said, "My nephew's words are wrong, but my nephew's words are wrong. My nephew's intention is that the situation is now in a stalemate. For the sake of insurance, we must at least hold on to the person named Yang. I wish him some sweetness, ah, this is not worthy of the word, this..."

Before Yang Sifu finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yang Fei's cold gaze. She sneered: "So what if Yang Hao has 300,000 troops? Do he dare to enter the city? Do he dare to rebel? If he doesn't rebel against Li Chen, we still have to think about it. If he imprisoned King Guang, it would be equivalent to losing his own way of retreat. Not only Zhang Bozhong opposed him, but there are many people who opposed him. This person is no longer a concern. As long as we hold Qiu Shiliang and Shen Ce Army in our hands, we still have a 90% chance of winning. As for the remaining 10, we have to leave it to fate."

Yang Sifu complimented: "Since ancient times, there is no perfect thing. Anything that is six points is worth fighting for. If it is ninety percent possible, then you still have to fight for your life." Yang Sifu smiled, frowned suddenly, and said with concern: "But if Qiu Shiliang and the others intervene, I'm afraid of this kind of mastery of supporting the dragon..."

Concubine Yang said lazily: "You are too worried. We will not have a day or two friendship with His Highness An. Qiu Shiliang and Yu Hongzhi hated Li Yu, and were determined to protect the security king. In the future, they will be the master of the dragon. But in terms of this mastery, isn't it yours and mine?"

Yang Sifu said: "Even if His Highness An can ascend the throne smoothly, it will only be cheaper for the two eunuchs. At that time, the court was not their world. What should we fight with them? Even if we want to make progress, we will inevitably repeat the mistakes of the Ganlu Incident."

Concubine Yang snorted disdainfully:

"You are still the prime minister of the current dynasty, and you are completely unfair to the general trend of the world. Now Chang'an City is completely different from Ganlu. Wen Shimao was defeated by Hexi and Yang Hao was at the city. The banner he used was to fight against the eunuch party. Although he did not dare to fight against the emperor, he did not dare to fight against Qiu Shiliang?

"With Wen Shimao, Qiu Shiliang's hand could not be reached outside the city. In order to protect the small world of Daming Palace, would he dare not cooperate with us? Do you think I asked you to make up those two absurd rumors, and I was just having fun? I was testing Qiu Shiliang and Yu Hongzhi, what was the result? Yu Hongzhi couldn't find out what was the name. Do you really think he was incompetent?

"Even if he is incompetent, the Judicial Hall and Xiao Qingyi are vegetarians? But he can't find out anything, even if Li Yu step on it, he can't find out. What does this mean? The two lieutenants are clear about the general trend. They know how to weigh the pros and cons. There will be a place for you and me in the future Daming Palace. When times change, he Qiu Shiliang wants to play a nectar change, which is to destroy himself. Besides..."

Concubine Yang thought about it and swallowed the words to her mouth again, but Yang Sifu already understood what he meant: King An Li Rong is not a cowardly Li Ang. He has the means and perseverance, so how could he be willing to be merciless at Qiu Shiliang? He couldn't help but think that I, Yang Sifu, are not Li Xun, and it's really a reversal of nectar. Killing Qiu Shiliang is like slaughtering a dog.

Concubine Yang finally comforted her nephew Prime Minister: "The big change will be this winter and next spring. Let's wait and hear a thunder sound on the ground."
