After hearing my voice, the whole court went crazy

Hearing the sound, the people who were still eating looked outside curiously.

Chu Mingze became very curious, so he ran to the door to take a look. As soon as he came out, his face turned pale and bloodless, and he retreated tremblingly.

Everyone saw a paper man with a strange smile on his face, rosy blush on his face, eyes dotted with dots, and a knife in his hand, slowly walking towards them.

[Digging grass, making paper figures without eyes, and then putting eyes on them, the wronged spirits are coming to claim their lives. ]

Zheng An Ning was no longer in the mood to eat. Could it be that this paper man was aimed at them?

The paper figurine laughed strangely when it saw Rong Lin, "Hehe~Hehe! Hehe

Oh, I found you! "

The voice was strange and cold, neither yin nor yang.

The paper man flew towards him at high speed, and stabbed him directly with the knife in its hand.

Rong Lin quickly stood up to block it, and at the same time pulled Zheng An Ning away to prevent her from being implicated.

Zheng An Ning yelled at Rong Lin, "Why are you pulling me? This paper man is coming towards you. Who did you offend?"

But who would have thought that the paper man, who was originally thought to be rushing towards Rong Lin, suddenly turned his blade and rushed towards Zheng An Ning fiercely. Then, five or six identical paper men rushed in from outside and attacked everyone directly.

[Damn it, is this directed at all of us?]

Seeing that Zheng Wanning was about to be stabbed to death by the paper man, Zheng An Ning kicked the paper man away and protected Zheng Wanning behind him.

The paper man quickly floated back, roaring angrily, and stabbed towards Zheng An Ning. Zheng An Ning punched the paper man and his hand trembled in pain.

"Digging grass, my hands hurt."

Seeing the paper man suddenly attack, Chu Mengying screamed in fear and dodged in panic, "Ah, what the hell is this thing?"

Chu Minglan and Chu Mingze quickly dodged and started fighting with the paper figures, protecting the girls behind them.

But they were exhausted and had no way to deal with the paper man, which seemed to be invulnerable to swords and guns.

For a moment, there was a stalemate between him and the paper man.

Chu Mingze blocked the attack of the paper man and quickly asked, "What should we do? This paper man is invulnerable to swords and guns and cannot be hit.

Zheng An Ning looked at the paper figure in front of her with disdain, "Hmph, just a trivial trick, get out of the way." As she said that, she took out a handful of fire talismans and quickly threw them at the paper figure.

Everyone saw that the originally ferocious paper man was suddenly hit by the talisman paper and then burned, accompanied by strange screams.

For a moment, flames shot up into the sky and the air was filled with a foul smell that was nauseating. In just a moment, several paper figures were burned to ashes.

Everyone looked at the burnt paper man and looked at each other in bewilderment. They couldn't help but feel scared. What happened? Where did this paper man come from?

Why were they assassinated? Was it just one person or everyone?

At this moment, the private room was in a mess, the tables and chairs were overturned, the food was spilled on the floor, and the cups and plates were in a mess.

Zheng Anning asked them with concern, scanning them all, "How is it, is everyone okay?"

Everyone shook their heads. They were all fine, they were just scared.

Chu Mingze scratched his head and asked Zheng Anning carelessly, "Is this paper figure controlled by someone?"

Zheng An Ning narrowed her eyes and looked at the paper ashes on the ground. She had just seen a strange pattern on the paper man. The pattern was hidden very secretly, and this pattern was similar to the runes on the coffin in the Changning Marquis Mansion.

So who could it be?

Zheng Anning spread his hands. "The manipulation is a trap. The person behind the scenes might be someone we have offended. Could he be your opponent?"

[Aren’t these princes killing each other in the fight for the throne? Could it be that a certain prince sent someone to kill them? ]

Chu Mingze's eyes widened, and he looked at Chu Minglan, asking with his eyes, "Is there?"

Chu Minglan shook his head. He and Lao Jiu did not participate in the party struggle. He was not interested in that position, and no one should want to get rid of him.

Rong Lin gestured to Mu Yi behind him and signaled for someone to investigate and make sure to find the murderer as quickly as possible.

Zheng Anning asked curiously, "Don't you think it's weird that this paper man came back to life? How come you guys are so calm now, except for the panic at the beginning?"

Chu Mingze waved his hands and retorted, "No, I'm scared now, okay?"

Chu Mengying also nodded in agreement. She was really scared. She hugged Leng Qiutang's arm and her body was still shaking.

[No, no one has discussed the matter of Changning Marquis Mansion until now. That is to say, the news has been blocked, but why? ]

And there were the previous ghost incidents. Logically, people would panic about unknown things, especially such weird things. Does that mean they are used to it?

The group guessed for a long time but couldn't find the answer. They could only pay for the meal and compensate for the damage to the restaurant's tables, chairs and tableware, and then go home.

In a dim room, the Duke of Zhenguo paced back and forth anxiously, looking seriously at an old man in a black robe who was sitting on the ground.

The old man in black robe was sitting cross-legged on a cushion with his eyes closed and strange runes painted on his face. There were some strange things around him, including skulls of certain animals and unknown blood. Some strange runes were drawn around him and a strong smell of blood filled the whole room, but he seemed to be unaware of it.

At this moment, the old man in black robe suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, wiped the blood and said to the Duke of Zhenguo, "No, several paper men are destroyed. Let's find a killer."

The Duke of Zhenguo touched the jade ring on his thumb and said harshly, "This little girl from the Zheng family actually dared to embarrass me in public. Humph, I will make her pay the price."

"Wouldn't she release ghosts? How about letting her be eaten by ghosts?"

The old man in black robe said nothing. His face was covered by the black robe, so his features could not be seen clearly for a moment.

Unexpectedly, the storm suddenly arose and the undercurrent surged. Zheng Anning made a scene in the Dali Temple, which caused a lot of waves.

In the streets and alleys, in teahouses and taverns, from the common people to the royal nobles, everyone knew that a monster had appeared in Kyoto.

"Have you heard? The young lady from the Prime Minister's Mansion is possessed by a demon. She set off ghosts in the Dali Temple today to scare people. She even almost ate someone."

"Have you heard? The Sixth Young Lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion is a monster. She eats people and children. She looks scary."

"..........."

At the morning court session the next day, the officials in the court were on the verge of a fight and the atmosphere was tense. Everyone stayed away from Zheng Yuanshan with mixed feelings.

Emperor Xuanwu sat on the dragon throne, steady as a mountain, his expression unchanged, "My dear ministers, is there anything I can help you with?"

The Duke of Zhenguo came out in a hurry, knelt on the ground, and cried bitterly, "Your Majesty, please help me. My son has been badly harmed, and I was almost killed by the evildoer. Please help me."

As he said this, he kowtowed several times.

Emperor Xuanwu looked at the pitiful Zhenguo Duke below and quickly signaled the chief eunuch beside him to help him up, while comforting him, "Why is Zhenguo Duke like this? If you have any grievances, please speak up."

All the court officials watched with concern and silently served as a background wall. Of course, there were also people who rolled their eyes in disdain and secretly cursed the old fox.

The Duke of Zhenguo said as if he had suffered a great injustice, "Your Majesty, please help me. Yesterday, my son was framed and thrown into prison, and Prime Minister Zheng allowed her daughter to commit the crime. She had no respect for her elders and she actually let the ghost harm me.
