At this time, Shen Yi had already turned around and left the stands.
Tonight, his main purpose was to see the effects of the "Ghost Controlling Technique" bestowed upon him.
The results were not bad.
Facing the ghosts of this world, he could also contract them as "Ghost Slaves". Not only could he summon them to fight, he could also use his own body to withstand the power of the ghosts. And Shen Yi had just checked the condition of Cheng Yaojin's body. Because he could control the consumption of blood and Qi, it would not affect his body too much.
Looking at it this way, this technique was quite compatible with the spiritual characteristics of this world.
As for Wu Zetian.
Shen Yi had indeed paid attention to her. Her aptitude was indeed top-notch. Most importantly, she was still young and her temperament had not yet stabilized. She had a higher plasticity.
However, the specifics still depended on the follow-up and fate.
The night passed peacefully. There were no more waves.
However, on the second day, when the civil and military officials entered the palace again, an evil ghost had appeared in the Wu family, and even two of their sons had died. Even the memorial tablet carved by the Wu family's youngest daughter had obtained the Immortal Monarch's divinity. This was reported to the palace.
Naturally, it caused an uproar.
Although the Immortal Monarch had already confirmed that evil ghosts had appeared in the world, and that evil ghosts had even appeared in the palace, this news had only just been received. For a moment, none of the officials thought that the evil ghosts would be so close.
Only some of the officials whose residences were closer to the Martial House still had lingering fears.
Last night, the evil ghost's terrifying howls were clearly heard by them.
"So, Cheng Yaojin, you have already captured and controlled an evil ghost?" Li Shimin looked at Cheng Yaojin with obvious curiosity in his eyes.
"Of course." Cheng Yaojin said proudly, "When I received the news, I immediately brought my son and servants to the Martial House, afraid that I would be too late. And that evil ghost is indeed extremely ferocious. I originally wanted to fight it for three hundred rounds, but I was afraid that the evil ghost would escape, so I simply used the technique bestowed by the Immortal Monarch. Now, that evil ghost is on the back of my hand."
Cheng Yaojin raised the back of his hand.
For a moment, many civil officials exclaimed, afraid that they would not be able to avoid it.
But the generals all stretched their necks to look.
Although they could not see anything special, they were still envious.
"Since the Immortal Monarch bestowed a technique to control ghosts, does that mean that Minister Cheng can already control evil ghosts?" Li Shimin asked.
The evil spirit he saw the night before really scared Li Shimin. If it weren't for the Immortal Palace above his head, he probably wouldn't have been able to sleep peacefully.
Now that he knew that there was an evil spirit on the back of Cheng Yaojin's hand, he was both curious and frightened.
"Of course." Cheng Yaojin was quite excited. "This subject tried for half a night last night and confirmed that there was no danger. This evil spirit is even more obedient than this subject's dog. If Your Majesty wants to see it, you can see it now."
As Cheng Yaojin spoke, some black fog appeared on the back of his hand.
In an instant, he felt a chill.
Vaguely, the howls of evil spirits could be heard.
For a time, there was a lot of commotion in the hall.
Some of the more cowardly officials were so scared that they fell to the ground and retreated.
Although Li Shimin was also a little afraid, looking at these civil officials, he was also dissatisfied.
"Hmph." Li Shimin snorted and simply said, "Minister Cheng, release this evil spirit and let these people have a good look. Otherwise, if they meet a real evil spirit in the future, they won't even dare to run."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Cheng Yaojin was very happy.
He had long wanted to release the evil spirit and show it off.
He was just afraid of scaring the Emperor.
Now that the Emperor had spoken, he didn't hold back.
In an instant, a golden light appeared on the back of his hand.
The evil spirit's howl suddenly resounded. A cloud of black fog rushed out from the back of Cheng Yaojin's hand and turned into the evil spirit's seven orifices bleeding, ferocious appearance. In an instant, the temperature in the hall suddenly dropped.
Some people had never seen such a terrifying evil spirit.
They immediately screamed in fright.
Some people even rolled and crawled.
Although Li Shimin was also shocked, but after confirming that this evil spirit was only wandering around the hall and screaming, he was slightly relieved.
After all, he had seen it once.
But at this time, his eyes looked at the civil and military officials, especially those who were the most unbearable.
He narrowed his eyes.
Among them, there were quite a number of people with different surnames and surnames. This was a good opportunity to suppress these people.
He immediately put on a furious look.
"What a scandal! What a scandal! " Li Shimin even stood up abruptly. "Look at all of you. How can I count on you to fight against this calamity! It's just a ghost that has been controlled by immortal spells, and it's even below the immortal lord. If it can scare all of you like this, how can it be used! How can it be used! "
His words made many people's faces turn pale.
At the moment when immortals descended and the calamity was about to arrive.
These words of Li Shimin's practically labeled them as' unfit for great purpose '.
"Your Majesty, please calm down." Zhangsun Wuji took a step forward. "Your Majesty, we are after all mortals. It's inevitable for us to be frightened when seeing an evil spirit for the first time. However, this evil spirit is so ferocious. Your Majesty, we should quickly come up with a way to deal with it and not disappoint the immortal lord."
"Of course." Li Shimin sat back down, but his face was still cold. "What does Minister Zhangsun suggest?"
"Your subject believes that the Ghost Rider Department should be established to rule over the Evil Ghosts of the world …" Zhangsun Wuji spoke out his suggestion for the establishment of the Ghost Rider Department according to last night's discussion.
Then, Fang Xuanling joined in.
Replenishment.
Even Qin Qiong, Yuchi Jingde, and other military generals took the initiative to ask for orders.
At this moment.
The other officials, especially the civil officials, no matter how slow they were to react, could see that the Emperor and his trusted aides had long been prepared and were waiting to take it out today.
He listened again.
Their expressions changed slightly.
The Ghost Rider Department was in charge of everything that had to do with ghosts, and their authority was greater than that of the other officials. As long as there was any suspicion that ghosts were involved, there was nothing that they couldn't investigate. Furthermore, the important positions were all taken up by the Emperor's trusted aides.
He was clearly trying to use the name of the Ghost Rider Department to gather imperial power!
If such a Ghost Rider Agency was really established, it would be a heavy blow to the aristocratic families.
Perhaps, even Cheng Yaojin purposely releasing the evil spirit in the main hall today was discussed beforehand!
"Your Majesty, I don't think so."
One person finally couldn't take it anymore and spoke out.
It was the Imperial Censor Cui Renshi.
He was from the Cui Clan of Boling.
This Cui Clan of Boling started in the Western Han Dynasty and was already one of the most famous clans in the world. Even among the Cui Clan of Boling, they were one of the best.
And Cui Renshi was the leader of the Cui Clan's second branch.
At this moment, seeing him stand out.
The rest of the aristocratic family officials were all shocked.
