Power to the government and the public: Qian engaged in business in ancient times

"Okay, sister, go slowly!"

Chang Sheng didn't know what was going on in the maidservant's mind, and sent her out the door with a smile on his face. Looking at the back of her leaving in a hurry, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and then went into the room to eat.

After the meal, Chang Sheng lay on the bed for a while, but couldn't fall asleep.

I got up and sat by the window, looking at the Buddhist temple not far away, but my mind flew far away.

This was the first time he left His Highness, and he wondered if it would be dangerous for His Highness to return to Dragon Phoenix Mountain alone?

With His Highness's cultivation level of Qi Refining Realm, if you go all out, you should be able to return to Dragon Phoenix Mountain in two or three days, and with a large army, you will be able to come to the City Lord's Mansion in about ten days!
If Li Yimei's token of military power can be stolen, will it be easy for His Highness to take down the Li family?
The thousand shadow guards left by the empress to His Highness really have something to do with Li Yimei?

Where did Li Yimei go when she wasn't in the City Lord's Mansion?

Suddenly, a yellow shadow loomed in the dark Buddhist hall, Chang Sheng was so startled that he hurriedly got up and rubbed his eyes.

Take a closer look: the yellow shadow is still shining in the Buddhist hall, especially eye-catching in the dark night.

Then, thinking of the maid who sent him here as an errand during the day, she said some strange things.

After thinking about it, could it be that this white shadow is the key?

"Crench!"

Chang Sheng used his internal strength to come to the gate of the Buddhist hall, pushed open the heavy mahogany door, and walked in tiptoe.

"Oh!"

As soon as Chang Sheng entered the room, the heavy mahogany door closed automatically.

Chang Sheng looked at the dark Buddhist hall, which was empty, the incense table above it was also covered with thick dust, and the incense ash in the incense burner had also turned black and moldy.

The Buddhist hall is not big, and the head can be seen at a glance, and there is no yellow figure.

This made Chang Sheng frowned, and secretly wondered: Could it be that he was blinded just now?
"Chang Sheng, you're here! Where's the Empress Dowager? Is Your Highness here?"

"Who?" Chang Sheng heard the slightly familiar male voice, and looked up at the source of the voice.

I saw a yellow figure slowly appearing in front of the incense table, which was the blank space where Buddha statues should be enshrined.

The outline of the figure's face became clearer and clearer, but it was a pity that there were countless scars drawn by daggers on the entire face, which were so intricate that the man's original appearance could no longer be recognized.

"Who are you?" Chang Sheng looked at this disfigured man with a soul body, startled and terrified.

What surprised him was that the soul-body man knew him, but what he feared was the strange strength of this soul-body man.

We all know that if a person dies without a body, a person with a weak soul can live in a dark place for three days.

A powerful man with a strong soul can only live for one year. Even with the blessing of a magic weapon, he can only live for five years. How can he live so long?

"Chang Sheng, I am Ying Kun, the leader of the shadow guards next to the empress, don't you recognize me?"

The soul-body man subconsciously stretched out his hand to touch his face, and looked at Chang Sheng with a melancholy expression, "That's right, my face has been ruined, and you can't recognize it, it's understandable!"

"Yingkun? Are you Yingkun?"

Chang Sheng shook his head in shock, and subconsciously vetoed the man's words: "It's...impossible, didn't you follow the empress to the secret realm of Xianmen? Why are you in Li's house?"

Yingkun is the shadow of the empress, and she is inseparable from the empress.

How could he die in the Buddhist hall of the Li family, with an appearance that is all over the country and the city?

Became a disfigured soul body?
But his voice is indeed exactly the same as Yingkun's. Is he really Yingkun who is beside the Empress?
Yingkun laughed at himself: "Chang Sheng, I left Longhuang Mountain with the empress that day, and I wanted to go to the secret realm of Xianmen with the empress to find the ninth-grade soul-inducing grass, but the empress was worried that it would take a long time, and the thousand shadow guards would be handed over to Wen. The Yin family, a farmer in the village, will make them grow ambitious, so they ordered me to stay."

"Two years later, news came from the fairy gate that the empress was missing and trapped. I was worried about her safety, so I quietly left Wenjiazhuang. A girl from the Yin family, and that girl is still an ordinary person who has no cultivation talent and no cultivation roots, and the two of them even have a daughter!"

"I wanted to kill the Yin family, but Chen Zhi begged hard, and other shadow guards pleaded for him. I was soft-hearted and decided to give him a chance."

"I don't want Chen Zhi to secretly give me a love potion, destroy my dantian, and secretly send me to Li Yimei, the head of the Li family in Xuancheng. And Li Yimei ruined my innocence, and trapped me in this Buddhist hall , forcing me to hand over the blank imperial decree reserved by the empress, declaring Wen Xinyu to be the next empress."

"I didn't agree, so I was disfigured by Li Yimei, and I was cast into an illusion by the Jindan strongman she found, and the blank imperial edict with the empress' private seal was also taken away by Li Yimei. After I woke up, I never He had no face to live on, so he hanged himself."

"I have killed too much in my life. I thought I would die, but I found that I was still trapped in this Buddhist hall. I wanted to rush out of the Buddhist hall, but a golden book fell from the beam. This book, my soul did not dissipate and perish."

After listening to Yingkun's story, Chang Sheng showed a trace of sympathy and shock, "Yingkun, you were betrayed by Chen Zhi, a good apprentice whom I taught alone! So, many years ago, those thousand shadow guards Already betrayed the Empress Dowager and became the private property of the Yin family?"

"Yeah!" Ying Kun nodded, looking at Chang Sheng with hope, "Why are you in the Li family? Is the empress dowager also here..."

Chang Sheng directly interrupted Ying Kun: "No, the Crown Princess has already left the Li family. She will not come back until ten days later. By then, the worm in the Li family will be wiped out!"

"Leave!" Ying Kun was extremely disappointed, his expression shrank instantly, "Ten days? It's too late, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for the Empress Dowager..."

"What do you mean by that?" Chang Sheng looked at Ying Kun in confusion.

"I can live by my soul and body because of the golden book in the Buddhist hall, which is placed in this golden book, but now the golden light on the book is about to disperse, and I can feel that my soul is getting weaker and weaker. It shouldn't last ten days!"

As Ying Kun said, a book with a faint golden light appeared in his hand.

It's just that the golden light on the book is very faint. If it wasn't for the pitch-black night, it would be impossible to notice that the book was shining.

"Golden book??" Chang Sheng stared at the golden book that suddenly appeared in Yingkun's hand, and his originally calm heart actually had a slight desire, which seemed to induce him to snatch it.

"This golden book has only one title, it's called "Sunflower Treasure Book", and I haven't been able to open this book after several years of research, why don't you give it a try?" Ying Kun glanced at the golden book in his hand, and threw it directly at Chang Sheng. .

"go with!"

"Hoo!" Unexpectedly, just as the golden book was thrown out, it returned to Yingkun's hands.

Yingkun looked at the golden book that had returned to his palm, and then at Chang Sheng on the opposite side.

"Go!" Unbelieving, he threw the golden book in his hand to Chang Sheng again.

"Hoo!" The moment the golden book was thrown out, it flew back again.

"go with!"

"call out!"

"go with!"

"call out!"

After trying several times, the golden book was still lying firmly in Yingkun's palm, so he had no choice but to admit it, "Chang Sheng, it seems that this golden book has its own ideas, and I wanted you to read it too. It can run aground."

"It's nothing. This golden book is the sustenance of your soul. It's normal not to want outsiders to touch it. You hold on. I believe the golden book can support you to wait until the empress dowager!"

Chang Sheng tried his best to suppress the bursts of longing in his heart, seeing that the sky outside was already slightly bright, he briefly comforted Ying Kun, and left the Buddhist hall in a hurry.

I only hope that Yingkun can wait until the crown princess.
