Concubine Chongxi: Binding the Medicine Jar to the Master

Chapter 217
Everyone looked over one after another, because they were all paying attention to the orchids of various colors just now, and they didn't look this way. Now when they saw Baili Jiuge's unparalleled face, everyone changed their expressions, and some even wiped their eyes and stretched their necks and mouths. Zhang was able to swallow eggs.

Then, the sharp gaze swept over, and Mo Li's gaze, like frost and snow, awakened everyone's dreams, and everyone hurriedly waited for Wang Yuanwai's answer.

It took a long time for the king to come back to his senses, and he replied: "The day our soldiers from the Great Yan Kingdom will be able to conquer Penglai, we will take over their precious jewels. It was a gift from the Crown Prince of Yan State!" He flaunted, "Thinking that His Highness the Crown Prince was only 12 years old when he personally conquered Penglai, we people of the Great Yan Kingdom are really honored by His Highness the Crown Prince—" Luckily.

It stopped abruptly, the word "lucky" was silent, Wang Yuanwai seemed to be petrified suddenly, and remained motionless.

"Wang Yuanwai, why don't you talk anymore?" Someone said impatiently.

"That's right, what does it mean to stop before finishing talking?"

"You are not suddenly dumb, are you?"

There was still no movement, Wang Yuanwai was as usual, but he didn't move for a while.Someone was waving his hand in front of his face mischievously, but he also looked straight at it without responding.

"Hey, did you see a ghost?" Everyone spat.

Baili Jiuge looked at it, and suddenly felt something was wrong. From her perspective, why did Wang Yuanwai's eyes lose focus?This look clearly looks like...

not good!

With a flash of red light, Baili Jiuge rushed in front of Wang Yuanwai, frightening the merchants next to him so much that they almost sat on the ground.

Mo Li immediately followed and held Baili Jiuge's hand. She looked back and smiled, then raised her hand and put her finger under Wang Yuanwai's nose...

No breath!

He was really plotted against!
The small hand gently pushed Wang Yuanwai's shoulder, and the fat body fell to the ground.

At this moment, everyone was frightened and immediately lost their positions.

"Dead!"

"Who killed him?!"

"Run away!"

Suddenly someone shouted "Look quickly", pointing at the pot of Tumo orchid.Everyone looked at his fingertips and were shocked, the pot of orchid was shattering rapidly, the petals fell like rain, and the flower branches collapsed into mud!
Baili Jiuge gasped, her first reaction was Liao Xiying, but she vetoed this idea in an instant.It's just because this orchid plant didn't turn into scorched black and withered yellow, but was completely destroyed!

Who?
who did it?

Why was there no trace of hidden weapons from the beginning to the end?Who moved the hand?

Just as the weird atmosphere spread, singing suddenly came from not far away.

"Whoever sings the song of Li in the Longjian, I will be quiet and gentle, and I will tell who I am with my blood. I am walking and walking, Huang Liang has a dream, and when I wake up, my family and country are ruined..."

"Me"? !

Baili Jiuge was startled.

It's this song again!This song was composed by the orphan of the Penglai royal family!The cold and sad voice of the woman who sang the song was clearly the singing voice I heard in the forest by Dihua Lake.

She exclaimed: "The soul-hunting lady?!"

My heart sank, and I finally understood who killed Wang Yuanwai!

The sisters in Qihua Valley have their own methods. Although the soul-hunting lady does not know martial arts, nor has she practiced the medical skills of the senior ghost doctor, but because she kills people without anyone noticing, and the cause of death can't be found out no matter what, that's why she got it. The name is "Ecstasy Lady".

The word "soul seduction" does not refer to her seductiveness, but to describe that she takes people's lives like a ghost messenger who specializes in seduction of souls.

I saw it with my own eyes today, and Baili Jiuge had to say that even I couldn't see how Wang Yuanwai died, let alone what method the Haunted Lady used to destroy the pot of tea orchids.

But what Baili Jiuge cares most about is the motive of the seductive lady.

Can't help shouting loudly: "I know you are the soul-hunting lady, but why did you take the life of Wang Yuanwai, and why did you destroy the Tumi orchid left by Penglai?"

The distant singing stopped suddenly, replaced by a voice of hatred to the bone: "Those who destroy my homeland will pay with blood. The orchids that have been polluted by them are not worthy of blooming again!"

Destroy her hometown?

Baili Jiuge's ears seemed to bear the thunder.What does the soul-hunting lady mean?Could it be that her hometown is...Penglai? !But this Wang Yuanwai is just a merchant. Could it be that he also participated in the invasion of Penglai before?

"The soul-hunting lady!"

She shouted excitedly, wanting to ask for clarification.However, the singing has dissipated, and there is no sound from the distance anymore. It is empty, and the whimpering of the wind is like a silent noise.

The little hand was tightly clenched, and Baili Jiuge looked at Mo Li, and smiled shyly: "Miss Hooking Soul, she just left without giving me a chance to ask, but I really didn't expect her to be a survivor of Penglai Kingdom." ..."

Mo Li frowned slightly, and cast his eyes on the far side. After a while, he closed his eyes and said softly: "Don't think about it, you should know, and you will know one day."

"En." Nodding, feeling that Mo Li's hands were too cold, Baili Jiuge grabbed his brocade and forced his hands into it.

Due to the unexplained sudden death of Wang Yuanwai, the orchid appreciation auction could not go on.The merchants were terrified, and hurriedly bought the orchids they liked, and dispersed one after another.

Of course, Qiuhang was the most unhappy about this. After everyone left, he cursed bitterly: "Wow, what kind of flower valley and seven places! You don't compensate people for blocking people's money, and you have a problem with your character!"

Baili Jiuge glanced at the accountants who were still making calculations, and said with a sneer, "You've earned enough, and you're not going to end well if you're greedy."

Qiu Hang's face was ashen, "Beauty, although you have chosen a man who is more beautiful than me as your husband, you don't have to be so vicious with Xiaosheng, Xiaosheng is most afraid of being bullied, huh."

"Okay, if you get a bargain, act like a good boy!" Baili Jiuge sneered at him with a smile.

Qiuhang scratched his head and scratched his head, suddenly remembered something, "I almost forgot something, I have to remind you!" He said: "A few days ago, a little girl named Han Chan came to me to avoid being chased and killed. I said she is the Gu Lingjun of the Yin Yang family."

Baili Jiuge was surprised, "Han Chan?!" I was overjoyed, it's great, it seems that Han Chan didn't fall into Liao Xiying's hands, and probably escaped.

Qiu Hang said: "The one who came to her was her twin sister. Because I guarded her well, they retreated at last. That little Han Chan girl asked me to tell you that you must be careful with the Lord Shengling of the Yin Yang family. She said, That Lord Shengling, although she has never seen the real face of that person, she knows that that person knows everything about you."

Baili Jiuge's heart tightened... I know it well, what does this mean?Could it be that Lord Shengling is still someone around them?Si Long's status is that of the Lord of Dead Souls, and the Lord of Living Souls is still above Si Long...

Mo Li's eyes were as pale as water, and he smiled slightly: "Thank you."

"Don't be polite." Qiu Hang clapped his hands together, "As long as you let the beauty treat me better." After speaking, he felt that he was on fire, so he quickly cleared his throat and pretended to be stupid.

Regarding Qiuhang's style, Baili Jiuge was speechless, until he left Lanzhuang two days later and saw Qiuhang come to see him off with colorful costumes, it was even more amused.

Before leaving, Yufeng couldn't stand Qiuhang's makeup at all, and said: "Master, you want to learn singing well, there is nothing wrong with it, but you should practice singing well before learning makeup. Now singing is not enough, and makeup is even more dare not." Compliments."

Now Baili Jiuge couldn't help laughing, it turned out that this Qiuhang did it like this when he was learning to sing, but the make-up...whether it looks like a male prostitute.

Forget it, I won’t tell him such hurtful words, Baili Jiuge knelt on Kunshan Xuehuang’s back, bid farewell to Qiuhang, and saw that Qiuhang’s aunt Wenyang was still in the village Running in circles, I don't know whether the effect of Wenyang's weight loss will be significant.

It was only after Kunshan Xuehuang flew high that Baili Jiuge suddenly realized that they were heading east all the way instead of Xiqi City.

She was surprised: "Mo Li, where are we going?"

"Go to the border." His voice sounded a bit heavy at the moment.

Baili Jiuge noticed something strange, "Mo Li, did something happen on the border, could it be... that bastard Yin Haoyi called?"

"No, it's famine."

famine?

Baili Jiuge immediately thought that when he first came to Zhou Kingdom, the people who were short of water on the border lived in such a miserable life that it was shocking to watch.

Mo Li sighed: "Yesterday evening, I received a letter from my father. The frontier generation rioted due to famine. The officials who went to relieve the disaster couldn't stand it anymore. My father asked me to go in person."

"Is that so... Mo Li, will you be in danger?" Knowing Mo Li's feelings for those common people, she was a little afraid that he would be wronged.

He raised his eyebrows and smiled softly: "Don't worry, I am the eldest son of Da Zhou after all, and the people will not attack me even if they riot."

"That's good……"

Baili Jiuge murmured, and suddenly, a strange thought came to her, she thought of the spring that Mo Li mentioned, it used to be a water spring, but now it has become a fire spring.

If... according to what my father said, the fire spring can meet the right conditions and turn into a water spring, then everything in the Zhou country can be completely different...

Baili Jiuge sneered.Such a condition must be as difficult as reaching the sky, after all, I have imagined it.

I had no choice but to think about it. Looking to the east, Baili Jiuge felt for the first time that the horizon was so far away that it made people feel distressed, as if the people living there gathered all the pain in the world.

To the east, that is also the direction of Dashang...

Suddenly thinking of Yin Haochen, I don't know what happened to Yin Haochen after he returned to Shang Kingdom, and whether he has annoyed that bastard Yin Haoyi again.What about Wu Niannian, have you gone back to the Prince Chen's Mansion?
I'm afraid, with Yin Haochen's temperament, he never sent anyone to look for Wu Niannian, but just drank in bars all day long.

In the imperial capital, for several days in a row, there was continuous spring rain.

On the third floor of the restaurant, Baili Weiming, dressed in a simple robe, was drinking with Yin Haochen.

Baili Weiming returned to the court at this moment to routinely report to work and visited Yin Haochen.It's just that Yin Haochen spent many days in the wine shop, often drinking unconsciously.Baili Weiming was afraid that he would drink his life, so he had to accompany him.

Seeing the wine jars piled up several times around the two, Baili Weiming took the bowl from Yin Haochen's hand, "Prince Chen, don't drink any more, drinking will hurt your health."

Grief welled up in Yin Haochen's misty eyes, "She also said such things..."

"Wang Chen is talking about Jiuge?"

"It's Niannian..." The deep voice was full of pain, Yin Haochen picked up the wine bowl again and continued.

Regarding the inside story of Wu Niannian's disappearance, Baili Weiming did not ask Yin Haochen, but it can be guessed that Yin Haochen must have encountered something difficult to explain because he was so depressed and frustrated.

"Yesterday, the imperial brother summoned the king to enter the palace..." Yin Haochen suddenly said: "The imperial brother scolded the king, why didn't he interfere in Heluo's internal affairs during the mission to Heluo, and watched the fire girl ascend the throne..."

The corners of Baili Weiming's lips twitched, how could he not understand that Emperor Zhaoyi was still guilty of Yin Zuoxiang's death, and as soon as Yin Liehuo came to the throne, Heluo announced an alliance with Zhou Guo and Liang Guo. The situation seems to be very unfavorable.

"Brother Huang also reprimanded me, why didn't I return to the country quickly? The Habayashi army who returned home was killed by this king himself."

Baili Weiming said coldly: "Prince Chen, it's not that I poured cold water on you, but that you are really too careless. You regard him as a brother, but you should know how he treats you now."

"This king is actually..."

Before he finished speaking, Baili Weiming suddenly stopped him with a hand gesture, picked up a chopstick on the table with his other hand, and threw it towards the screen...

"what!"

There was a scream from the other side of the screen, blood splashed on the screen, and someone fell to the ground.

Yin Haochen sobered up instantly, "Who is it..."

"Let me take a look." Baili Weiming got up, went to check behind the screen, and immediately took out the corpse water, melting the person to nothing.

When he came back, he said to Yin Haochen, "It's the bodyguard of Ouchi, I'm afraid it's watching you."

The wine bowl fell on the table, and because of shock, Yin Haochen forgot to avoid the drink dripping from the eaves of the table, "Brother Huang... spy on me?"

"It can only be said that the Holy Majesty is the most likely."

His heart ached, and a cold wind pierced into his heart. After drinking so much hot wine, Yin Haochen felt terribly cold all over.

Is he so jealous of his mother's elder brother?He is obviously loyal, but does the emperor refuse to trust him anymore?
A sudden burst of heart-wrenching grief made Yin Haochen hold his heart tightly.Yin Haochen, oh Yin Haochen, your wife has run away, your brother is jealous, in the end you will have a day of betrayal!
Baili Weiming brought a cup of tea to Yin Haochen, "Prince Chen should sober up quickly and leave this place. There is another matter to tell you. I was on a patrol that day and met Jiuge who was going to Zhou. She said that she Already pregnant with Liujia."

"This king...knows." The voice was filled with grief, but at this moment, no other emotions could be heard.

"Prince Chen, with all due respect, if the reason for your drinking is Princess Chen, I won't say anything. I just don't hope that the reason for your drinking is Jiu Ge."

Yin Haochen didn't speak, he raised his head and drank a bowl.Then he stood up with difficulty, smelled of alcohol, and was about to go downstairs and leave.

Baili Weiming paid the bill for him, and called a coachman, ordering him to take Yin Haochen back to Prince Chen's mansion.

But Yin Haochen did not go to Chenwang Mansion. Although he was drunk these days, he had some thoughts, but he was sober that he could no longer be sober.On the way back, he ordered the coachman to change his route and head towards the back gate of the palace.

After escaping for so many days, there are some things that he should face.

Sobered up by the cold wind, his body was freezing cold, Yin Haochen held the token of Zangshu Pavilion, came to the front of Zangshu Pavilion, entered the pavilion, and drove away all the palace people who were cleaning and arranging the bookcases. Walking through many bookshelves.

He will never forget what Mo Li once said to him——

"His Royal Highness, after you return to the imperial capital, please go to the Library Pavilion to check it out. I don't want to say more about the rest, that's all I have to say."

She knew in her heart that Mo Li must have guessed something about Nian Nian's life experience...

I still remember the few words Wu Niannian said, has her family been wiped out?If the matter about her family can be included in the book of Zangshu Pavilion, it already shows that Nian Nian's origin is not trivial.

The fingertips touched a book, and the coolness of the book spread all over the body along the fingers.

After all, he can no longer escape!
He has the responsibility to know everything about Wu Niannian!
Just like this, I searched through the books in the library, time passed quickly, and the maid who came to add candles came again and again.Outside the window, night is coming.

Yin Haochen's fingers suddenly stopped on the page, and he stared at the yellowed paper in shock. At this moment, he finally knew.

Yanling Family!
He recalled that a few years ago, a feng shui master gave advice to the emperor, saying that the Yanling family had a rare spiritual woman who would influence the fate of the big merchants.At that time, I only listened to it as a joke, and never thought that the emperor's brother believed it, and in order to kill that woman, he slaughtered the Yanling family regardless of the direct lineage.

Yin Haochen was struck by lightning.

Is that spiritual woman Nian Nian?
Nian Nian's family was actually destroyed by the emperor's brother!And if Brother Huang knew that Nian Nian was still alive, he would definitely put her to death!

At this moment, Yin Haochen finally understands why Wu Niannian has been refusing to reveal his life experience, and why he hates himself so much, saying that the death of the clansmen is all because of her...

She was so innocent, but because of the Feng Shui master's slander, she lost all her relatives and suffered a lot.

Unexpectedly, he, Yin Haochen, married such a woman by mistake, and stabbed her scarred heart again and again!

He simply did the same thing as the emperor!
In the grief, the limbs were empty and lost, and even the maid who came to add candles to remind him was completely ignored.

When Yin Haochen returned to the palace, it was already late at night, but he didn't know how he got back.Filled with grief and remorse, he fell heavily on the couch after being drunk for many days.

"His Royal Highness, Prince Concubine Chen and Concubine Chen, one will live and the other will die. Do you want the person you love, or your wife?"

Dreaming back at midnight, every word of Luo Zhanghua's words was so clear, tearing Yin Haochen's ears.

The cold wind that night, the lonely cliff, Wu Niannian, who was hung on a tree with a crooked neck, tears flowed from his desperate and empty eyes.

This king chooses... Nine Songs!
It was as if I heard my broken and trembling cry again, like a hysterical roar, just to make a painful choice...

He was wrong!He was wrong!
He was all wrong!

He shouldn't have made that choice at all!

"Near!"

Yin Haochen woke up from the nightmare in an instant, desperately grasping with one hand, trying to grasp the thin figure falling off the cliff, but all he could grasp was the cool bedding.
