If you don't count, you will die

Zimei, who was dozing off, was slapped by Zilan and woke up instantly. When she saw Kun Xiao who was sitting up suddenly, she immediately widened her eyes and covered her mouth with her hand to avoid disturbing Kun Xiao by making a sound.

At this moment, Kun Xiao's eyes suddenly widened, pupils dilated, and a little bit of black slowly blurred in the eyes, like spilled ink on paper, this scene appeared in the eyes of a person , is very strange.

At this moment, Zilan and Zimei firmly believed in what the man in black said. Zilan immediately went to get the incense, and kept throwing a few grains into the incense burner until the fragrance in the room was strong. When it got tiresome, it gradually stopped.

And Kun Xiao also sat quietly for a while, then fell back upright, lying on the bed stiffly, with her eyes closed, her posture was like a dead person.

Zilan was older and more courageous, approached cautiously, probed Kun Xiao's nose, breathing steadily, nothing else happened.

Since then, the two of them didn't dare to be negligent, they lit the incense every day, and the smell of the incense was strong and greasy during the day, Kun Xiao seemed to be unable to smell it when she was awake, and never asked about it.

By the fifth night, Kun Xiao's nails had already started to swell, and there was no white in the pupils of her eyes, and she stared straight ahead coldly, her appearance was extremely terrifying.

And on the sixth night, Kun Xiao turned her head to hit Quan Lan and Zi Mei, her dark eyes were filled with greed for food, and the corners of her mouth were cracked, revealing jagged fangs that couldn't be concealed.

Zimei was a young girl, she hid behind Zilan and shivered, her wrists were tightly held by Zilan so she didn't rush out of the princess bedroom.

On the seventh night, Kun Xiao finally moved.

She first sat up straight as before, opened her eyes, and looked around with dark and gloomy eyes, drooling from the corners of her mouth, and when she saw Zilan and Zimei trembling, she immediately looked strangely. He jumped up and rushed over.

Zimei screamed out in shock, but saw that Kun Xiao just stayed in front of the two of them for a while, then flied out after frustrating her nose.

That night, a palace lady disappeared from the princess' bedroom.

However, in Nuo Da's palace, there are open and secret fights, but it is very common for a little maid to disappear, and no one pays attention to it.

Then, every once in a while, someone disappeared, either a court lady, or a cleaning servant, or a servant.

Then, the time interval became shorter and shorter, and Zilan and Zimei were exhausted and frightened day by day in order to cover up the traces of Kun Xiao's whereabouts.

It turned out that after the princess rushed out that day, Zilan, who was more courageous, immediately followed and fell far behind. She saw Princess Kunxiao, who had turned into a monster, attack a palace lady holding a lamp late at night in a strange and quick manner. And crawled on his body to eat, the disgusting scene made Zilan vomit on the spot.

Then she also found that Kun Xiao, who was full of food and drink, would go back to the dormitory by herself, and lie back on the bed. Except for the dust and blood stains all over her body, she seemed to be sleeping peacefully on the bed all the time.

Zilan made a decisive decision and forced the trembling Zimei to clean up Kun Xiao's body, while she carried a bucket and ran to clean up the pool of blood left by Kun Xiao's cannibalism, and then picked up the broken bones and rotten meat Secretly thrown out of the palace.

During the daytime, Kun Xiao didn't know anything. It was the same as usual, but there was something different. Her body was getting healthier and more agile every day, but she ate less and less every day.

Zimei looked at the normal princess in the daytime, hesitated to speak, tried to go forward to tell the truth every time, but was dragged away by Zilan and reprimanded.

And Kun Xiao was dazzled by the joy of recovering her health. She didn't even notice that she ate far less than a normal person during the day. To avenge her imperial brother.

Zilan's expression is gloomy day by day. Zilan was just a servant's heir when she was young. She suffered a lot since she was a child and was rescued by Kun Xiao brothers and sisters. She naturally has a great kindness in her heart and wants to repay her, but she looks at her every day. The princess is like a monster at night, she is calm on the face, but not as calm as she appears on the inside.

Kunxiao needs more and more people to eat. It is not surprising that one or two people have disappeared in the Nuoda palace. The sustainable and frequent disappearance of palace people has attracted the attention of others. At this time, the palace is also full of people. There are some rumors, not big or small, and sooner or later these rumors will reach the princess' bedroom.

Just when Zilan was at a loss, Kun Xiao got a request and went to Zhantian Kingdom, using the excuse of going to make peace with relatives.

The emperor of Kun Kingdom is very ambitious, but has been restricted by Zhan Tian for many years. At this time, a pretty princess stepped forward to ask for Ying. Although he knew that there would be no big storms in Zhan Tian, ​​at least he could disgust the emperor of Zhan Tian. Zhan, before contacting Zhan Tian, ​​sent Kun Xiao over earlier.

On the way, there is no mention of how Zilan and Zimei had to cover up Kun Xiao's abnormal situation at night, and how they coaxed Kun Xiao's disappearing attendant into where to go during the day.At least it was a surprise for Zilan to breathe a sigh of relief when she arrived at the Zhantian Emperor's Palace. She lived near the abandoned hall that was rumored to be haunted in the Zhantian Emperor's Palace, which really gave her a plan to solve the delay.

But there is nothing foolproof in the world, after all, Zimei was killed in an accident.

After Zimei died, Zilan didn't dare to hide any more, so she told the other court ladies.

Before Shen Mo's body Fu Zimei was alive, he felt the severe pain of being eaten alive. The severe pain seemed to spread along his soul, entangled him as if it wanted to tear him apart.

Suddenly a strong force hit him, dragging him out of the trance.

Slowly opening his eyes, Shen Mo found that he was holding Hao Su tightly, and his forehead was full of sweat.

Seeing him waking up, Su Yuanhuan raised his eyebrows and asked, "How is it? I see that you look in pain, but you are overworked? The two of you are in ecstasy again and again. Although I don't understand this miraculous ecstasy technique, I want to come to this kind of adversity. God's solution will definitely not be easy."

Breathing silently and slowly, it took a long time to recover, and said: "Kun Xiao really didn't know that she would become a monster, but her maids, Zilan and Zimei, knew that all of this was related to the man in black. "

Su Yuanhuan asked, "The man in black? But the mysterious man who taught Shuisheng in Huaishu Village?"

Nodding silently, "Exactly."

Su Yuanhuan: "How? Do you want to go back and interrogate those maids again?"

After a moment of silence, he shook his head lightly, "Kun Xiao is dead, I know what those maids know, and there is no point in asking, go back to the imperial palace."

Su Yuanhuan pursed his lips: "Forget it, Kun Kingdom sent a princess, but she died miserably in a month or so. I'd like to see how our great Zhantian emperor plans to deal with this matter."

Silence turned to look at Su Yuanhuan quietly for a long time, and said, "You seem to hate the current emperor?"

Su Yuanhuan also turned his head and looked at Shen Mo, with just the right amount of surprise on his ordinary face, "How could it be? I am so sincere and loyal to the emperor. My loyalty can be learned from heaven and earth."

Rao is the silent one who is good at observing. At that time, he couldn't tell whether what Su Yuanhuan said was true or false, but everyone in the Nuoda Emperor's Palace had different thoughts. How can he be silent and meddle in other's business ?

At this moment, Shen Mo's mind was slightly shaken. He probed into the fortune-telling system in his mind, and saw a line of black words appear on the exchange record.

"Lands and rivers are enshrouded, and the life span is one year."

So far, Shen Mo knows that this matter is completely over, about the carved jade pendant that was not delivered to Kun Xiao in its entirety, and about a pair of hard-working brothers and sisters from Kun Kingdom.

But the man in the blue hat and the mysterious man in black who came and went freely in the imperial palace were still full of doubts.

Shen Mo followed Lin Mu to learn how to organize this complicated case into a grand memorial and hand it to the emperor.

And the emperor didn't have any reaction that interested Su Yuanhuan. He didn't feel guilty for the tragic death of Princess Kun in the Imperial Palace of Zhantian Kingdom in just over a month. He beat them back and forced Kun Guo to admit that their princess was immoral and had no way to teach their daughters, and sent countless treasures.

The matter was over, and the imperial palace calmed down again for a while.

Taking advantage of his leisure time, Shen Mo ran out of the imperial palace, returned to the street corner of Jiuzhong downtown where he had stayed when he first came here, unfolded the tattered fortune-telling banners, and set up a fortune-telling stall again.

At this time, because of the sudden seal of the new national teacher due to the emperor's war, the common people heard some plausible rumors, and they were no longer so resistant to fortune-telling, and the silent booth became lively for a while.

But these people who ask for hexagrams only ask for small things that cannot be trivialized, and these hexagrams can't add even one day's lifespan to Silence, so apart from ten characters per hexagram, silence can be said to be He didn't gain anything, and at this time, he is the national teacher of Zhantian Kingdom, and he is provided with three meals a day, and has nothing else to ask for. The accumulated copper coins and silver are not attractive to him.

And one month later, Di Junzhan met Shen Mo again, and told Mo Mo to predict the auspicious day, the big exam every year, which is also the Imperial Examination, is coming.

That's right, it's been a long time since Lou Xi's case. At that time, the Tongxiang Examination had already passed, and now, the Palace Examination is about to take place.

This year's palace examination, I heard that the emperor paid special attention to it.

The emperor's attention is not a good thing for the officials of the court today. If new talents are promoted, old people will be replaced, and those who will be replaced...

What the officials thought was another round of calculations.

And these active officials seem to never be able to escape the palm of the emperor.

When the imperial examination was just around the corner, Shen Mo heard about a trivial matter. He said it was a small matter, but it caused all kinds of thoughts to surge in Shen Mo's heart, causing ripples and turmoil.

Kun Xiao's maid, Lan, hanged herself.

Apparently, the emperor of Kun Kingdom had no impression of the few maids and guards who were stranded in the Zhantian Emperor's Palace, and he would not send someone to pick them up, so these people were reassigned by the palace chief to stay as palace servants of the Zhantian Emperor's Palace. down.

And after that, when the palace lady Lan found out about Kun Xiao's death, her expression was in a trance, and she was in a daze. After a few days without eating or drinking, she hanged herself in her room.

It's just that a palace lady from an enemy country died, no one cared about it at all, and when it was mentioned occasionally, it was just another place in the palace that might be haunted.

But this emperor's court, ten miles of palace walls, is there any place that has not been baptized with blood, and within a few days, no one mentions it.

And preparations for the final palace examination of the imperial examination were also in full swing.
