The little eunuch hurriedly said: "Yes...it was premature birth. Concubine Yun Gui gave birth prematurely. But...then the little princess was not saved, and Concubine Yun Gui and the little princess were both gone."

Emperor Kanghua, who was in his thirties, had a cold face and his eyes fell on Wang Deshun: "Wang Deshun, go to Feiyun Palace and take a look at the situation carefully, and then report it to me!"

"yes!"

On the night of the Queen Mother's birthday, it was reported in Dahan Kingdom that Concubine Yun Gui had given birth prematurely and gave birth to a little princess. Because it was a stillborn baby, Concubine Yun Gui could not bear it for a while and died.

Concubine Yun died less than a quarter of an hour later, and the water in Feiyun Palace somehow got lost. By the time the guards put out the fire, the entire Feiyun Palace had turned into a charred ruin.

On the morning of the second day after the death of Concubine Yun Gui, the Queen Mother, who was drinking tea in her bedroom, died of a sudden illness.

Then the queen, who was three months pregnant, accidentally fell from a building. Although she survived, the fetus in her belly was born prematurely, resulting in lifelong infertility.

Cao Guiren, who had just been diagnosed with one month's pregnancy in the palace, drowned in the bathtub where she was bathing. Blood flowed from her lower body and stained the entire bathtub red.

Not only that, but also the more favored Concubine Shu, Concubine De and Concubine Xian. Concubine Shu became crazy because of the nightmare in the middle of the night.

Concubine De held the two-year-old princess and her tryst with the seventh prince was interrupted by the palace guards. Emperor Kanghua was furious and sentenced the two to death. Even the two-year-old princess was strangled to death in the palace along with her.

Concubine Xian was considered the luckiest one, but an assassin attacked her late at night and she was stabbed on the left side of her face. From then on, she lived in the inner palace and could hardly leave the house.

Suddenly, in the entire harem, the queen mother died, two of the fourth concubines died, two princesses died, and one prince died.

Therefore, rumors spread like wildfire. Many said that it was because Concubine Yun Gui and the little princess died unjustly, and her soul was unwilling to accept it and was causing trouble in the world.

Emperor Kanghua was furious and ordered the entire imperial city to be under martial law, and began to drastically reform the internal system and centralize the central power.

At the same time, he personally went to Wuhua Mountain and invited Gu Su, the master of Xiaoyao Sect in Wuhua Mountain who has been passed down for thousands of years, to enter the palace to get rid of evil spirits and ensure the safety of the royal family.

The Xiaoyao Sect is the number one assassination organization in the entire Yuanxiu Continent. It has existed since the beginning of chaos and has been passed down to this day for more than a thousand years.

The leader of the sect will always have only one name - Gusu. To become Gusu, one must be better than the master and kill the previous Gusu.

In the eyes of the world, Xiaoyao Sect is a sharp sword in the hands of emperors from all over the world. It is an existence that the emperors of the entire Yuanxiu Continent are afraid of but have to acquiesce to.

In the cold winter of the forty-third year of the Dahan Kingdom, Gu Su, the 81st generation head of the Xiaoyao Sect, moved into the Mingguang Hall at the invitation of Emperor Kanghua of the Dahan Kingdom.

Strangely enough, after Gusu moved into the Mingguang Hall, the entire inner courtyard of the palace gradually became peaceful. No one in the harem or concubines drowned or fell to death for no reason.

After that, Emperor Kanghua had a son and a daughter successively. From the concubine's pregnancy to the birth, everything went smoothly.

Unfortunately, due to the fighting in the harem and palace, the son and the daughter failed to grow up. Therefore, Emperor Kanghua had little interest in the affairs of the harem.

The premature deaths of a son and a daughter were all man-made and did not affect Gusu's reputation in the slightest. Emperor Kanghua respected Gusu very much and made Gusu the imperial advisor and moved him into the Mingguang Palace. No one was allowed to visit him except by Emperor Kanghua's decree.

Five years later, it was a hot summer.

In the mass grave outside the city on the western outskirts of Dahan Kingdom, under the scorching sun, a black crow rested on an old tree with dead vines, preening its shiny feathers.

Everyone avoids this stinking mass grave. Only birds like crows stay here with eyes the size of mung beans, looking at those who are dying but can only wait to die.

die.

When those people have just died, the crows will fly over, use their claws to prick the fresh meat on it, and eat it. The smell of corpse corpses accompanied by the blood that has gradually solidified makes those crows look like even under the blue sky and the scorching sun.

All with a bit of ruthlessness and viciousness.

At this moment, the black crow, after smoothing down its shiny black hair, stared sharply at the small lump that was being rubbed just now, with a vicious light in its eyes.

He suddenly jumped down from the branch and stabbed straight towards the small lump, his big mung bean eyes shining with bloodthirsty light.

Su Wan woke up at this time, opened her eyes slightly, and suddenly closed her eyes because the sun was too harsh.

The moment she closed her eyes again, she noticed a sliver of darkness in the distance suddenly piercing towards her.

Almost subconsciously, Su Wan suddenly pounced on the ground, grabbing randomly with her little hands, regardless of whether it was a stone or a bone, and hit the black spot she just noticed.

"Yeah... Yeah..."

Accompanied by the ferocious crow of the crow, Su Wan quickly opened her eyes and noticed that the dark spot turned out to be a crow, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

But when she saw the ferocious light in the crow's eyes, she was shocked. What kind of crows were these? How could they have such vicious eyes?

Don't ordinary birds avoid people when they see them? As for this crow, if she hadn't avoided it just now, she might have been scratched directly by its claws.
