Chapter 147: Always prosperous as a dream (5)

He didn't speak. After all, such incidents often happened in the palace. For various reasons, the emperor secretly demoted the imperial concubine to Lenggong, and declared that he had died suddenly or was too sick to see people.
"This eldest brother, even though we are all dead in this cold palace, life is precious, even if it is an old man who died of illness, it is better than being bitten by a poisonous snake." I looked up at the guard's eyes: "Leng Gong It is not good, and many resentments have gathered. If you are bitten to death by a poisonous snake again, you will not end well, I am afraid that you will leave the resentment in this palace and hurt Fu Zuo if you go to the Yin Cao underground palace."
The guard sneered and looked around Fansi's surroundings: "There is a lot of grievance here, and it doesn't hurt to have more."
I felt cold in my heart, clenched my fist, and said with a deep blessing: "I also hope that a few elder brothers will perform their duties. Although those snakes can have a relationship, if someone in the cold palace is bitten to death again, it will inevitably be you. Come again. At that time, you may not find the position of the silver ring as easily as today."
After hearing what I said, the people in the team who were not dissatisfied with the snakes before took a look at them, and then carefully discussed with the people beside them. A wave of expression appeared on these people's faces, but they still hesitated.
I took a deep breath and pointed to the concubines under the tree and said, "The two favorite concubines of the Emperor Xian were killed by the snake last time. The others here are also from the Imperial Palace. I heard several people say Mr. Zhang personally ordered the matter. Although he didn’t want to disturb the emperor, he would report it to the emperor after handling it. Among the remaining concubines, there is another princess who gave birth to Princess Hui, who can be regarded as a toffee. ."
I glanced over them one by one, and said in a solemn and slightly intimidating tone: "But today the emperor is filial to the world, and the queen mother is kind, maybe one day the toffee will be released from the cold palace." I paused. Said: "Or, the eight-year-old princess Hui, who grew up next to the concubine, missed her birth mother, but she learned that her birth mother was killed by a poisonous snake in the cold palace. She had sent guards to catch snakes before. I wonder if she would be willing to accept this snake. Did it appear later?"
The guards looked at each other for a few moments, and finally someone nodded: "It's just a silver ring. We have so many things with us, and we are afraid that a snake will fail?"
Another person also said: "Take the silver ring back to Director Zhang to return to life, maybe you will get a reward."
"Yes, in case someone gets killed again, it's not us yet to send someone. This time, it will save trouble in the future."
I hid the smile at the corner of my lips and bowed to them deeply: "Thank you for your compassion."
The team of guards gathered to discuss how to catch snakes. After all, the silver ring generally does not hurt people, but in the event of an attack, its attack power should not be underestimated.
I retired under the tree, the women didn't know the danger right in front of them, and they just did their own thing. I sighed helplessly and looked over there.
The guards were still discussing, I took a few steps forward, and I happened to hear their discussion without being noticed by them.
"Where is the snake?"
"When we first entered, we found it under the bed."
"Are there any alarms?"
"No, the snake seemed to be sleeping when we saw it, and we came out."
"Then let's send a team in first. If it's still asleep, it's easy to handle it. Use a snake clip to get it out."
As he said, a group of people entered, but soon there was a scream in the room, and then the group helped one person out, all with panic on their faces.
I saw that the person who was helped out was pale, unable to move as if he was weak, his heart was broken, and he must have been bitten by the snake.
"Is there any snake medicine? Did you bring snake medicine?" a guard shouted loudly, and the other hurriedly took out a bag of yellow-brown medicine powder from his pocket and sprinkled it on the wrist of the bitten person.
I looked at the powder, and for some reason I thought of the two abandoned concubines who were killed before. Suddenly, I seemed to have reacted to something, and looked at the pile of dead snake corpses, not the emerald green snake that killed the two abandoned concubines that day.
Looking at the guard again, sure enough, he had already experienced the same symptoms as the two abandoned concubines, and he began to vomit blood outwards.
I closed my eyes. Although I didn't know what kind of snake it was, I knew that the guard would not survive.
At the same time, I am also worried that if one of the guards died, would the remaining people still dare to catch snakes? Originally they had the intention to withdraw, but now...
The snake medicine had no effect, and the guard died soon after vomiting blood.
"It's all you!" The guard who had previously spoken to me saw me at a glance and came forward and pushed me. His strength was so great that I staggered back a few steps, but could only lower my head.
"If it weren't for you to let our brothers catch snakes, Brother Luo wouldn't die!" He stared, and there were still traces of dampness in his eyes, but his eyes were really angry. In his opinion, I killed the guard surnamed Luo. murderer.
But I can't defend it. I can't anger them at this time. If they are angered, as soon as they leave, no one will catch us snakes.
However, even if I don't irritate them, the possibility of them staying is almost gone.
"What a mess? I didn't get the money, and I took my life for nothing. I quit." A guard threw the tool in his hand to the ground and stood aside cursingly.
"That's right, we have killed a few before, enough to have a relationship." One of them gave me a harsh look.
"Let's go, let's go, these dead people will die sooner or later, in fact, it's better to be alive now like this! If you were bitten to death by a snake, you would have reached bliss early." Another person raised his arm and said.
"We carried the body of Brother Luo out, and we won't say anything if we want to come to Director Zhang."
"Doesn't Director Zhang know that there are poisonous snakes? What if you let us come again?" Someone worried.
"Do we have to come when he lets us come? I won't come!" the man replied, but he was not confident enough.
I knew in my heart that if Zhang Dehai wanted them to do anything, even if it was a pan, they would dare not stop. At this time, it was just a moment of quickness in anger.
"Offended Manager Zhang... I'm afraid it's not good, we still have to think of a way." Someone whispered.
Another person picked among the pile of dead snakes, as if he found gold, and said happily: "There is a poisonous snake here, just say it was the one who killed it."
The embarrassment on everyone's face was swept away, and everyone was happy. So I intend to make a business.
I gritted my teeth and stepped forward, "Brothers, did you just leave like this?" I stretched my hands to stop them.
"Get out of the way!" The leader pushed me aside forcefully, and I almost fell to the ground.
I stepped forward again: "You can't go, you go, the snake in that house will definitely kill us all."
"Get out!" Another person pushed me to the ground: "It's all you! How could our brother die if it weren't for you? You are bitten to death if you are bitten to death, can you have our brother's life worthwhile? Abandoning people and living is just a waste of food!"
I struggled to get up, but before I stood up straight, someone pushed me again and I fell to the ground again.
I held back the tears in my eyes and was treated like this for the first time in my life. However, I can't let the tears flow. Just crawling and grabbing one of them's feet, looking up at him.
"Brother Wanwang is compassionate, and the poor ants are greedy for life, and save my life."
"Go away, don't get in the way!" The man ignored my pleading and kicked me directly. Seeing that I had to get up, he made up a few more feet.
My body hurts everywhere, but the pain can't suppress my fear of the poisonous snake.
"Brothers, you are gone, we really have nothing to do!" I almost cried.
"If we don't leave, we will be dead. The ghost knows who has chicken blood and dead mice in that room. No wonder there are so many snakes!" The guard scolded, "We don't want to die. If you don't want to die, catch it yourself. All right!"
As he said, he looked carefully at me, then he smiled weirdly, licked his lips, and said to the guards behind: "This woman is pretty." Then he turned his head and looked at me. There is something more fearful than a snake.
"You have fun with us, let's help you catch it." With a wicked smile on his face, he took a step forward, reaching out to catch me. At this moment, I hadn't stood up yet, so I could only look at him in horror, and moved backwards. Seeing that dirty hand stained with snake blood was about to touch me, I almost screamed in horror.
"Liu San, what are you doing!" A middle-aged man stepped forward and pulled the guard away and whispered: "The women here are all the women of the emperor, and even the emperor is also the emperor’s emperor. You don’t want to touch it. Terrible?"
"This is Leng Gong..." Then Liu San was still defending himself.
"What about Lenggong? You don't want to think about it. How could that dead mouse and chicken blood be here for no reason?" The middle-aged man pulled Liu San into the team, lowered his voice, and looked at the women in the courtyard one by one. Sweeping over: "If you don't want anything, just leave."
Liu Sanchao glanced at me unwillingly, and finally, still afraid of talking to the middle-aged man, he returned to the team and prepared to leave.
I suppressed the nausea in my heart, got up from the ground again, and said to the middle-aged man: "Brother," my voice was solemn and serious: "If you really want to leave, can you stay? What about these tools?"
The man glanced at me, surprised in his eyes, and a flash of admiration. After all, in his eyes, I was just a woman who had no power to bind a chicken, waiting to die in such a deserted place. But, as he said, I am the emperor’s woman, the emperor’s woman, in this cannibalistic palace, which one is weak, and which one can be weak?
"Leave things to her." The guard said to others around him, suddenly thinking of something, looking at me and saying: "You won't commit suicide, will you?"
I was taken aback by his abrupt questioning, and immediately smiled, with a smile like a rustling Dihua in the autumn wind: "The concubine's suicide is a serious crime for the Jiu Clan. I still have my elder brother and sister-in-law, so I won’t hurt my family." With a sneer, the eldest princess is my second sister-in-law and is also within the scope of the affiliation.
However, if I really committed suicide, Shen Xiyao would be implicated, I am afraid there will be only one person. For him, I can't die either!
The middle-aged guard took a deep look at me and thought for a while and said: "You woman, to be on the safe side, it is best to use smoke to force the snake out, and then sprinkle sulfur powder and lime powder on it. There are snakes here. Clip, but the silver ring is relatively large, you may not have enough strength. Be careful yourself." He pointed to the pile of things left and explained to me one by one, and at the end he said to himself: "I don't know who it is. The house, anyway, you'd better take water to clean the blood stains, otherwise, there will be snakes. The smell of chicken blood is the easiest to attract snakes."
I sincerely blessed him: "Thank you for your advice. I don't know the name of my eldest brother. I am chanting scriptures every day for my eldest brother to ask for a future."
He "hehe" smiled: "You don't need the future, just be safe." He casually said: "My name is Zhao, Zhao Haojie." Then he looked at me: "You are a cold-hearted woman, you should pray for yourself more."
I smiled slightly: "Thank you Brother Zhao!"
