當日稍早 紫禁城內 萬歲山253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5kwXHWdMc
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEy4deLae3g
皇帝御駕出巡，帶領多數局司史官隨侍，留守在紫禁城中留守的宮人相形之下清閒許多。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9xcEpfd6y
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6XICa8Xcd
兩名值夜的侍衛，撐著昏沉的腦袋和惺忪睡眼，拖著步伐走到景山周圍巡視。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQM91pdQvH
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9iU8Wj6fq
景山又稱萬歲山，由開挖護城河的泥土堆砌而成，是紫禁城中的至高處，山下遍植果木，平日是皇帝與后妃飲宴觀景的好去處，但是今夜卻有股詭異的氣息，陰森夜風吹得樹影幢幢，宛如鬼魅。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3ZxVb7E0t
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx522M1FDji
「好……好冷啊，」其中一名侍衛凍得牙關發顫，「我說……反正，皇上不在宮裡，不如……不如，我們回值房待命吧。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjSXwcSppu
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUx4HhibEKq
另一人被陣陣冷風颳得直打哆嗦，連話都說不出來，只能猛點頭。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8wiBV00Ul
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQUO2RLxFu
兩人正欲回頭，某處忽然傳來一聲綿長又淒厲的嚎叫，似犬又似狼，兩人不禁毛骨悚然。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRktKlaB3pE
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yblDyyI2J
「你……你看……」該名侍衛指向高處。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzOww7RxLi
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJhBqXxyNk
山頂上立著一名身穿道袍的男子，景山壟罩在一片闇影中，頂上的天空卻是魔性的淤紫，映襯著一輪血色圓月。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxX34RRR934
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lzfetV73n
男子緩緩伸開右掌，一陣黑色煙霧自他掌中釋放，煙霧盤旋而上，形成一頭巨獸。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HWmjpjgL6
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMo4d87lQv
「妖……妖人……」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JOzAvMoay
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhcBqxOrHI
「難道是……害得京城商人全家百餘口離奇斃命……連畜生都不放過的……」侍衛不停發抖。 253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PnsRlddhg
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdbm3CJDJI
「是黑眚。」另一人道出其名，溫熱的尿液自胯間流下。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmJeASRaBg
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2gTO2abGJ
道士轉過頭來與兩人對視，他的雙眼殷紅如血。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexql6V1BoJ
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeccl8HRCFe
「快、快跑！」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DGqkM0YO0
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1V9q7PuZL
驚恐萬狀的兩人，恨不得娘親給自己多生出兩條腿，沒命似地朝內值房狂奔而去。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtazfNndxHa
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrw1xUMRLx
天明後 五海子行宮253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rimG14kcL
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYQmUYJqCT
天明時分，南苑下起一場暴雨，朱見深坐在殿外廊下，望著殿簷水流如瀑，可想而知，軍帳內的三大營士兵一定萬分狼狽。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0z7NA5NNvs
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrD0qWM2VQr
稍早他命人去傳湖衣到御前隨侍，但是馮瑛前來回話，說主兒在林子裡割傷了腿腳，現下行動不便，不克前來。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvkTch0Nxb
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjxS5cajgk
他隨即遣了王太醫去為湖衣療傷，希望她能盡快痊癒。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzPfijsipb
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4MF3dvTzL
此行南苑圍獵，怎麼變得越來越無趣了。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPhEFA4i5h
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1DIhUErIW
突然，一陣急促的腳步聲傳來，殿前太監奔過來下跪稟報，「陛下，宮裡傳來急報，妖人妖物現蹤萬歲山。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfJeKzdiKQ
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7S9Fu9D5W
「什麼，你說什麼！」朱見深簡直不敢相信自己的耳朵。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9gMybwfQm
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjKSH6icxc
「是妖物……萬歲山……」太監嚇得臉色煞白。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvib06tQlI
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyrVuGnSEA
萬歲山位居玄武北位，主帝王之壽，妖物夜出乃不祥之兆，會折損君主壽命。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLHc3DO9cp
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhUeh2upz4
朱見深心亂如麻，御馬監太監汪直又匆匆進殿，一下撲跪在地：「驚擾陛下，奴才該死，但是前殿出現妖物，御前侍衛正在攔阻，但是……恐怕攔不住……」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjL7VStNAgL
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjU3QHgMKkt
「竟有此事？」萬貴妃不知是何時已走到廊前，「陛下還是先往寢殿暫避，已防有失。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6pDEMuTKK
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQpTwQITeK
「不，」朱見深一口回絕，「若真有妖物，朕倒想見上一見。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQ0MYP9Gu7
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolqOsOA5sO
朱見深說著，邁開步伐往前殿走去，誰知他才踏出殿廊，就聽見震耳欲聾的吼聲。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9nZwTTFp3
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yGhbkoP29
滂沱大雨中，一群護衛團團圍住一頭黑毛怪獸，那獸姿態凜然，毛色殷黑如墨，似虎非虎。眾人心有畏懼，握著兵器的手不住顫抖。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRHfvSggj4
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9AeA2qMRK
「這畜生是……」朱見深驚駭莫名。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPlKhGcfjR
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dNDdDqBE8
汪直搶上前來，以自己身軀護衛聖駕，「啟秉陛下，這是曾在城東大街食人的黑眚。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqdaXa6i5O
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ymlpP2xAv
傳說，黑眚是君王對天下疾苦「聽而不聰」時，才會降生在世上的妖物。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AuxqoIX55
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtZuay10Ri
朱見深不禁怒氣上湧。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwQlvZ3TQ6
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEvOGQeNV9
連上天也認為朕是個昏君。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhG2GIixlUo
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqbsBRQP1k
彷彿在回應朱見深，黑眚發出一聲低吼，牠目不轉睛地盯著朱見深，像是在責怪他不該德行有虧，引得天降災禍。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopi0SfEWAk
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtWZgiuUSW
「保護皇上！」御前侍衛率先衝上前，持刀揮砍，黑眚張開血盆大口，咬住一名侍衛，頭一甩，侍衛手臂被扯斷，人卻打橫飛了出去，在濕漉漉的地上留下一條血溝。黑眚口裡嚼食侍衛的斷臂，鮮血自獠牙滴落。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwB1GLIpMX
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMTXJatfSa
黑眚無視周圍的護衛，筆直地朝向朱見深而來，牠目不轉睛地盯著他，金黃色眼睛燃著熊熊怒火，背脊毛髮豎立，像是在對朱見深挑釁，瞧他是否有膽上前來一決勝負。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr87MjNQ0ut
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2VjVgQcLK
英明的君主都曾獵虎，朱見深暗忖，成祖朱棣還獵過大象，沒理由他會輸給先祖。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqiBPwI7Ty
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZwxQoVTSd
「陛下，」貼身太監張敏著急地說：「您還是避一避吧，這裡不安全。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdNWorUgbd
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHibzLHU39
「不，再等等。」朱見深依然緊盯著黑眚，一人一獸，四目相對。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoTaTARs88
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoaHGN0bQd
「牠朝著這裡來了。」不知道哪個怕死的太監哭叫著，有人愣在原地不知所措，還有人在危急中捨棄了他們的主子，退進偏殿內，迅速抵上門擋。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡln0EqIyR9p
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsAOWHhrPo
殿前侍衛統領大聲喝令：「護駕，宰了那畜牲，誓死保護皇上！」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TCiYt9Iqg
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKR5Bo1PVaP
幾名侍衛朝著黑眚拋擲手中長茅，其中一支擦過了牠的背脊，鮮血緩慢地滲出來。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mmb9cX2YD
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCY2h2tJ9m2
受傷疼痛激怒了兇猛的異獸，它騰空躍起，跳到一名持矛兵身上，尖牙重重刺進他的頭頸，頸骨瞬間碎裂，頭與頸項只剩一絲皮肉相連，鮮血濕透他的鎧甲，其餘的護衛咒罵咆哮，卻一時不敢向前。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUhe3Og3VT
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hTrBMcH0S
「難道是天要滅朕……」朱見深喃喃說道，身體不自覺地向後殿退去，先前想要獵虎的勇氣已喪失殆盡，他轉頭望向萬貴妃，她同樣神情驚懼地一步一步向後退。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HeVK0NQDj
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmjc8wHxgS
「陛下，」汪直冒死擋在他身前，「奴才願為陛下粉身碎骨，死而後已。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbqZyrsXqK
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oUKW93wdL
「好。」朱見深眼見有人負傷倒地，還有人腸破肚流，此刻一名太監願為他赴險，不由得心生感動。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMxBloPJvD
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZ5PepRyWL
黑眚的指爪崁入還在掙扎的士兵，張開大口就咬，絕望的尖叫聲刺痛了朱見深雙耳，撲鼻的血腥味令他作嘔，但他無法移開視線。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsY7wqyHvuI
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorY576uTFP
這頭妖物真美。朱見深怔怔地望著牠，黑色毛髮閃耀著金光，面對著四面八方湧來的敵人，依然勇敢無畏，這才是王者應有的氣度。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CBiF5j3LJ
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoakFQGwYJ
牠真是來取他性命的嗎……253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSGfYOQ2Ty
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuIDggsIY9
空中響起一聲尖鳴。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10GJM9C2hz
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQ2M8W6Sfw
一支弩箭破空而來，黑眚的腦袋突然向後仰，下一刻它的大口中穿出一枚箭鏃，黑眚張大口，卻嘶嘶地發不出聲來，接著更多弩箭釘在黑眚身上，它奮力甩動身軀，想擺脫攻勢，弩箭卻如雪雨般向牠射過來。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WVM8b25jI
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkesCVgTSOy
朱見深望弩箭來處，只見手執弩弓的睿靖王，身後跟著同樣手持弩弓的神機營營兵，他們一人一箭，箭無虛發，全數釘在黑眚身上各處要害。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59R5qSW3hu
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SKdLi9abt
一聲號令，箭雨聲嘎然而止。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aRF82amcu
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMbXgHQqtP
黑眚搖晃了幾下，目中像是噴出火來，惡狠狠地欲向朱玹撲來，最後前腿一軟，不支倒地，鮮血混雜著雨水，濺起一道紅色水牆，死前還仰頭向天，發出最後一聲悲壯的絕命狂嚎。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3v5oCjncx
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL22GjFKjXF
睿靖王走上前，向著朱見深單膝下跪，他身後的神機營營兵也跟著跪地下拜，「臣等，救駕來遲，願領責罰。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVrHfOlhKJ
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUSjsXHcpv
變故來得太快，朱見深一時沒回過神來，只見所有太監宮女、御前侍衛、還有剛剛趕到的五軍營和三千營營兵，全都望向自己，他們心中必然認定他是是個怕死懦弱的君主。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUtxGvptAi
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWoIylnBo6
不像睿靖王，那般英明神武。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkg6VHU6QQv
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebxRA5BGiw
「朕無恙，眾卿平身。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJFPuJtzTS
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyMp5bCcMs
眾人依言禮畢起身。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnE5QEPLDm
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ulckVc81J
他是皇帝，縱使萬般不願，也得把應有的儀態作足，朱見深對張敏略點了點頭，後者隨即傳旨。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQV51BhcUII
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBVkKlEDyR
「奉皇上令諭，睿靖王及神機營護駕有功，全軍加俸半年。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVaTbVMLbc
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCC07A8JtTF
睿靖王叩首，「謝吾皇恩典，願吾皇千秋萬代，皇圖永固。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeg7ZWFskz
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXenk0ZbEQe
殿上百餘人同聲喊著：「千秋萬代，皇圖永固。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68W7mn3Vc3
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHPagGGxDP
這些恭維話語在朱見深聽來，倒像是蘊含譏諷，他望著血跡斑斑，侍衛與妖物的屍身猶在，殿前一片混亂，一如蒙塵的皇權，他長嘆一聲後，對張敏下令：「著人清理善後，朕乏了，回寢殿。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw19alw1gTp
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MPZuxPJNF
朱見深快步移駕後殿，儘管不想聽，眾人對皇叔的讚美卻不斷從身後傳過來。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1we7iBDV7
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoQ8obWim1
「王爺好箭法。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfrEyCorSw
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡny5OaiZ57K
「要不是王爺，我等難逃此劫。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjknyVDz1w1
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDO6iJwl447
「本以為神機營只會使槍，沒想到各個都是神射手。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtbI3CFS4r
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyi1XW2N6Ta
「皇上御前禁用火器，只能使用箭弩，避免引發火災。」一名神機營校尉解釋。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS70uPVFTmC
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUOi1YNAPW
夠了，他聽夠了。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqT5y6tVwfk
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRkab0kUBR
是，和英勇的睿靖王相比，皇帝顯得如此怯懦無能。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJvLzaRVV1
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUEGF5VjzM
他顏面掃地，胸口煩悶欲嘔，只想盡快離開，不願再承受眾人鄙夷的目光。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Vc9lIOfWI
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZGnqaqkKG
「陛下。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMHZ4png2T
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfJUBPUfIt
朱見深佇足，萬貴妃攜著汪直追了過來。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOhQuAhzZ3
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOiNdwG8PT
還好，無論發生何事，至少還有萬貴妃不會輕視他。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡba5gswTeWa
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANxbVDdVl7
「汪直有密報。」萬貴妃言道。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEsbc4T5FT
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlHAMQsSt9
「何事？」朱見深問道。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeQklAiXEL
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPzVpmjzkc
汪直上前一步，「奴才接獲密報，太玄道觀一干妖道雖除，但仍有餘孽逃脫，近日內又死灰復燃，在京城內以喇嘛寺為掩護，不但蠱惑眾人，還行使幻術，妖獸鬼物為其馭使。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdHB217y1x
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGssDHSyv7h
「真有此事？」朱見深大驚，莫非這幫妖人是想害他性命？253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZ3qfugXjI
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTxrr7QHZh
「奴才不敢妄言。」汪直躬身下拜。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNg1Yi3eCAp
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKTvgMW52f
「帶人抄了那寺院，所有妖人，一概處死。」朱見深驚極反怒。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNhdjojh1k
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZl6XQwRcbu
「陛下，」萬貴妃插口，「汪直不過是一名御馬監掌印太監，又無權柄，誰會聽他調度？」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNf5Djp0jM
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXvhVTLvlQ
貴妃續道：「妖人作亂，東廠本該徹查，但是東廠提督尚銘怠忽職守，以致妖物驚擾皇上，應該先治他失職之罪，再由汪直替補。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fnxzZu8fe
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXC2B37FX9
「不。」朱見深搖頭，既然尚銘有虧職守，下屬必定也是些庸碌之輩，他信不過這些人。253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4G8Iu36RBJ
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hz7wvqN50
「汪直聽旨，」朱見深下令，「朕命你為西緝事廠提督，偕同原西緝事司舊部出宮查訪，務必將此案查個水落石出，一個妖人都不可放過。」253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRAMUH93Lu
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9GysggG4P
「奴才遵旨。」汪直下跪叩首。
