Chapter 120 Cao Qinmo was poisoned to death 4
(Pre-view reminder: This chapter is extremely unfriendly to Concubine Duan, and contains a certain amount of description of punishment and pain, please read with caution.)
----
The emperor felt a vague nausea until the empress dowager could no longer sit still and was ready to have a frank talk with him.
Then, after removing their veils, the most noble mother and daughter in the Qing Dynasty faced each other awkwardly for a full cup of tea.
Because... they were captivated by each other's faces.
After a long time, the Queen Mother, who had finally prepared herself mentally, spoke first and said:
"Noble Lady Wan... No, Emperor... This matter was first started by you and Zhen. After so many days, do the mages have any clues?"
"That Shilan, well, I mean, mother. The wizard only said that there was an evil spirit in the palace, and the Imperial Astronomical Observatory also said that there were strange celestial phenomena. I really don't know whether it is the Nian family that has returned, ah..."
The mother and son, who had very different styles but both had beautiful faces at this moment, couldn't help but look at each other sadly, and then both were hurt by the sight again and looked away silently.
Then they all sighed.
What a sin!
In fact, the Queen Mother had a vague idea in her mind, but she didn't dare to say it out loud.
The Queen Mother felt that no matter whether it was the wronged spirit of Nian Shilan who was causing trouble, it was definitely related to the Emperor's actions.
Therefore, maybe the emperor would offer sacrifices to heaven and earth, sincerely apologize, and the matter would be over...
However, as the saying goes, no one knows a child better than his mother.
It was because the empress dowager knew too well how petty the emperor was that she did not dare to express this idea aloud.
After all, the emperor was already averse to people saying that he came to the throne in an illegitimate way. How could you ask him to issue an edict of repentance at this time with such a beautiful face that looked so weird no matter how you looked at it?
How can it be!
He would rather cover his face until it rots and stinks!
Even if in the end everyone in the Forbidden City would be infected by this terrible "face-changing disease", he would never admit that he was wrong!
no way!
Of course, even if the emperor admitted his mistake, Cao Qinmo would not show mercy.
After lying lazily for more than half a month, Concubine Xiang finally announced that her illness had recovered.
After hearing the news, most people didn't react much. At most, they secretly wondered how Cao Qinmo would be avenged by Nian Shilan's wronged spirit.
Zhen Huan was surprised for a moment, but thinking about the emperor and the empress dowager's current state, they probably wouldn't bother to continue to bother a little concubine Xiang, so she didn't care any more.
The emperor, the empress dowager and the queen all had similar ideas.
One is that there are so many things going on in the palace now that they are too lazy to take care of it;
The other is that everyone is looking forward to seeing how Nian Shilan will take revenge on Cao Qinmo, the dog that bit its master.
It can be said that at present, the only person in the palace who feels sorry about this matter is Concubine Duan who is hiding in the dark.
She didn't care whether Nian Shilan would take revenge on Cao Qinmo or not.
For Qi Yuebin, the sooner Cao Qinmo died, the sooner she could have a child.
So, of course, she became the person who most desperately wanted Cao Qinmo to die.
However, soon, Qi Yuebin no longer had time to secretly curse Cao Qinmo to die quickly, because she was also infected with the face-changing disease.
Cao Qinmo, who has a very bad taste, performed a cross-time and space face-changing technique. She replaced Qi Yuebin's face with a pale, smooth, and very smooth snake face.
To be precise, she replaced Qi Yuebin's face with Voldemort's from the next studio.
(At the same time, Voldemort, who was leading a group of Death Eaters to attack Hogwarts, suddenly felt that he had regained his nose.)
Needless to say, this snake face was extremely terrifying. Its power was so great that it frightened both Qi Yuebin and Jixiang, the master and servant, unconscious.
When the emperor received the news and hurried over to take a look, he was so frightened that his legs went weak and he almost knelt on the ground to kowtow to the unconscious Qi Yuebin.
Unlike the others who at least had normal and familiar human faces, Qi Yuebin, who had this powerful snake face, was directly sentenced to death by the emperor in his heart.
Xia Qi broke her hands and feet alive, and she was in excruciating pain, but every time she looked like she was on her last breath, she just couldn't die.
Just tell me, is this scary or not?
In any case, the emperor felt the horror of Qi Yuebin from the bottom of his heart.
However, even though the emperor ordered her to be given medicine every day, and later even tried hanging and demotion, Qi Yuebin still remained on the verge of death.
There was not even one more breath left, but she just wouldn't die.
After seeing all these strange behaviors, the emperor finally determined that the evil spirit in the palace that the wizard mentioned was Qi Yuebin!
So, soon, Qi Yuebin, who possessed an immortal body, was pushed onto the stake.
Before this, in order to prove her identity as a monster, the emperor dragged Qi Yuebin in front of everyone and demonstrated to everyone what the unique skill of "being able to continue breathing even after the neck is cut off" means!
Therefore, when the tortured Qi Yuebin was finally pushed onto the stake and dozens of shamans performed rituals around her, everyone's hearts were filled with tension and hope.
Everyone was convinced that Qi Yuebin, who had a snake face, was a real monster.
Everyone was sure that once she died, everything in the palace would return to its previous state.
I just hope the magicians' spells are useful and can really burn this monster to death!
When the flames started burning, Cao Qinmo, who had come to watch the execution, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw Qi Yuebin with numb and empty eyes.
She felt that the original owner's resentment should have dissipated a lot after watching this scene, so she finally removed the luck protection shield that she had previously cast on Qi Yuebin.
The moment the flames fell on her body, Qi Yuebin, who had originally had no reaction to anything in the outside world, suddenly raised her head, and through the air distorted by the heat, she looked through the crowd and looked at Cao Qinmo who was nodding and smiling at her.
“It’s…it’s you…cahhhh!”
This was Qi Yuebin's last shrill roar before he died, using all his strength.
However, no one could understand the meaning of her words. People were overjoyed at her death, and they jumped for joy and told each other the news.
They said: The evildoer who had been entrenched in the palace is finally dead!
Even if a few people heard her screams before death, they just thought it was her struggle or some kind of curse.
What's more, Shen Meizhuang, who became more and more convinced of Nian Shilan's resurrection because of the face-changing incident, thought that Qi Yuebin must have seen Nian Shilan's ghost before his death!
What kind of evildoer is this? The frightened Shen Meizhuang just thought that it was all Nian Shilan's fault.
In response, the real mastermind behind the scenes, Cao Qinmo, simply shrugged his shoulders and leisurely chose his next victim.
