Conspiracy

Chapter 217 The Woman in Red Dancing in the Snow

In the past, Jin Lian only thought that Gu Yunshu was a civil servant who had read a lot of poetry and books, but he did not expect him to be so capable.

"As General Xiao said earlier, these are stand-in dolls. It's just that they are like dandelions, which can be infinitely reproduced. But all things in the world are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other, and these medicinal powders can prevent them from regenerating. However, due to the scarcity of medicinal materials, there are only these, so you must Collect everything. If someone is reluctant to hand it over, it is very likely that someone will die."

"Then what are those gray shadows?"

"It's just a spell, not an evil spirit. But it doesn't survive by devouring people's vitality, nor does it rely on absorbing negative energy. On the contrary... it can create illusions, and lure people out with false money, power or color. Inferiority, and then use it to control people."

"Could it be that Li Jieyu and the others are being controlled?"

Su Zhen pursed her lips, and shook her head seriously, "It would be fine if they were controlled, I'm afraid. They are behind the scenes."

Afterwards, Su Zhen recounted everything that happened after leaving Taifu's mansion today.

The four sat in the tooth door, all silent.

Gu Yunshu's eyes fell on the thin wooden rope on Su Zhen's wrist, and he could clearly feel that the aura on the thin rope was weak, completely different from the past.

A yamen servant suddenly rushed in from the outside, clasped his fists and saluted them, and said, "Master Yu! Li Jieyu is back!"

They all sat up from their seats, Yu Changqing asked, "What did you say? Li Jieyu? Where is she?"

"My lord, just now the palace sent someone to say that they found Li Jieyu who had been unconscious for a long time in a cave on a rockery."

Su Zhen's face turned pale instantly, what exactly did they want to do?
Seeing that she was about to walk outside, Gu Yunshu reached out and grabbed her, "Where are you going?"

"Enter the palace, go see Li Jieyu."

"She finally came back, the emperor will definitely be with her at this moment. Don't worry, wait until tomorrow, and I will go with you."

Su Zhen knew that Gu Yunshu was worried about their safety, afraid that Li Jieyu would use those porcelain dolls against them.

"Wait! Something's wrong! If those dandelions in the city are a cover-up, isn't their purpose never to control the people, but to..."

"emperor!"

The four of them turned pale with shock, hurriedly left Siwei's mansion, and rode their horses to the palace.

In another hour, the palace gate was supposed to be locked. When they arrived in a hurry, they learned that the emperor had issued an order that no one was allowed to enter or leave the palace tonight.

In front of the east gate, they looked at each other, Jin Lian swears in a low voice, and said anxiously, "Could something really happen, right? But trespassing on the palace is a capital offense!"

Su Zhen narrowed her eyes, just when she was hesitant to use the space transfer technique to enter the palace, the east gate suddenly opened, and Xiao Anzi, who was next to the prince, came out holding the prince's token.

Seeing them come out, he hurriedly stepped forward happily, "I have seen you, my lords."

"Little Anzi? Why are you here?"

"His Royal Highness said, the adults should be here soon, and the special servants will come out to greet you."

Goodwill Chen?Could it be that Xiao Chuhong tipped them off?

"Then there is Eunuch Lao."

Under the leadership of Xiao Anzi, they entered the palace smoothly.There was nothing unusual along the way, and everyone was smiling and respectful.

Everything looks the same as usual, no difference.

'Stupid Scholar, Stupid Scholar'

"Who?!"

Gu Yunshu's sudden call broke the silence, everyone stopped and looked at him in surprise.

"Zhen'er, did you hear a woman's voice?"

Su Zhen looked around and moved her ears, but she didn't hear anything, "No, did you hear wrong?"

Gu Yunshu calmed down, except for the chirping of insects, there was indeed no sound.

"Wait, I remember that this road should always be patrolled by imperial guards, why is there no one there?"

As soon as Gu Yunshu finished speaking, several forbidden soldiers with knives came from behind and walked past them without looking sideways.

"Everyone, His Royal Highness is still waiting." Xiao Anzi urged eagerly.

They didn't say much anymore, but they soon discovered that this is not the road leading to the East Palace, but the Yuxuan Palace?
"Little Anzi, is His Highness the Crown Prince with the Emperor now?"

"Exactly."

Su Zhen suddenly had a creepy feeling in her heart, took out the Jinxuan, and quietly hid it in her cuff.

After walking for about two quarters of an hour, they finally arrived at the Yuxuan Palace. The guards outside were still guarding the Yuxuan Palace like an iron wall.

Xiao Anzi showed the prince's token to the guards, and they let it go.

After entering the courtyard where the Yuxuan Palace was located, the temperature seemed to drop a lot, and they couldn't help rubbing their arms.

Gu Yunshu and Su Zhen stopped in front at the same time, looking around vigilantly.

"Master Gu? You Ning? What's the matter?" Yu Changqing asked.

"There is Yin Qi! This place should have been controlled by Li Jieyu!"

As soon as Gu Yunshu finished speaking, the figure of the guard in front of the Yuxuan Palace flickered and disappeared before their eyes.

Immediately, to Su Zhen, a sound of magic that seemed familiar suddenly filled her ears, with a desolate and chilling meaning.

Oops!It was the singing that she heard before she fell into a coma that night at the Captain's Mansion.

It turned out that it was not a dream, it really happened!At that time, the person who secretly helped Kill Zun turned out to be Li Jieyu!
Su Zhen bit the tip of her tongue and forced herself to stay awake, but her consciousness became more and more blurred, and she tried her best to take out the Jinxuan in her sleeve.A majestic spiritual power erupted from his body, and all of it was input into Jinxuan.

The clear and melodious Qingxin Xun song is like a spring breeze blowing across the cheeks, and the evening rain washes away the grayness in the heart and smoothes all the pain.It also seems to be in a hot spring, surrounded by flowers.With the ups and downs of the xun, their hearts gradually calmed down, and they were no longer bewitched by the strange singing.

Gu Yunshu summoned a weapon and stood behind Su Zhen with his back to back,
The sound of the xun stopped, everything was silent, Su Zhen swallowed the blood that was about to spurt, and looked inside the gate of Yuxuan Palace, "Li Yu, use any tricks you have."

Several candles in the Yuxuan Hall were extinguished, and they could clearly see in the courtyard, a black reflection of a slim figure appeared on the door of the main hall, with the sleeves thrown up, spinning and dancing.

It is now the hottest summer, and at some point in the night sky, gray snowflakes began to float.

They couldn't feel the coldness at all, their eyes couldn't help being attracted by the woman, and their ears were silent.

When the woman dances lightly, her humming voice is like a lover's ear, whispering in a low voice.

The gate of Yuxuan Hall suddenly opened, and a woman in red appeared in front of them.

In the sky filled with gray snow, the red gauze skirt wrapped the woman's exquisite figure, and the black gauze drape between the arms was stretched to the ground.A string of black bells hangs from her slender waist, and the sultry eyes in her eyes are mesmerizing when she raises her eyes.

The hair is tied up into a cloud bun, and a red flower hairpin is inserted on the right side.Covering her face with a light veil, her bright red lips curved slightly, and a red plum was biting between her white teeth.

Her dancing posture is light, elegant and soft, like a flying geese.The lotus steps are moved lightly, the right hand brushes the cheek with the orchid fingers, the light veil between the arms hangs down, revealing the bright wrists of the lotus arms.The horizontal line of the body is tilted and turned several times, and the chin is raised, revealing the delicate collarbone.At the moment of jumping up, the hem of the skirt curved up, and the fluttering black cloak appeared more agile.

The snow fell more and more heavily, and the woman in red continued to move, her jade feet making messy footprints in the gray snow.

Blossoming flaming purple dandelions fluttered from their ground, against which gray snowflakes set off. The beautiful scene in front of them made the woman more and more alluring.
