The sky-covering technique begins, and the rising moon over the sea shocks Yue Yao.

Lei Mengsha laughed loudly: "That's impossible."

"I believe in Changge. Since you promised me, you won't break your promise."

"No more talking, go shopping, I'll wait for you in the academy!"

Chapter 104 Emperor Tai'an's Questions

Apocalypse City, Imperial Palace.

A figure in gorgeous clothes shuttled through the palace.

When the guards saw the visitor, they all saluted respectfully.

"I have met His Highness the Ninth Prince."

Xiao Ruofeng nodded when he heard this, and then asked, "Is His Majesty in the Imperial Study?"

"Replying to the Ninth Prince, yes."

"it is good."

As he said that, Xiao Ruofeng walked towards the imperial study without looking back.

At this moment, in the imperial study.

Emperor Tai'an was looking down at the memorial in his hand, while the eunuch Zhuoqing was waiting respectfully beside him.

"Old Nine, you should be back soon, right?"

At this time, Emperor Tai'an suddenly looked up at Zhuoqing.

Zhuoqing bowed slightly and responded respectfully, "Your Majesty."

"Yesterday's intelligence mentioned that His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince had arrived thirty miles outside of Tianqi City at nightfall."

"I think at this time, he should be back soon."

Emperor Tai'an nodded slightly, his face calm and expressionless, showing no emotion.

"We asked him to investigate Gu Chen's matter this time, and he did a good job."

"But I still can't feel at ease."

"After all, the ten techniques of the Trickster Medicine Man that Gu Chen possesses are too powerful."

"On the battlefield, he alone is as powerful as an army of 300,000."

"therefore."

"Whether he's dead or not, I have to confirm it with Lao Jiu in person before I can feel at ease."

As he was speaking, there were light footsteps outside the door.

Emperor Tai'an and Zhuoqing looked at each other.

next second.

There was a gentle knock on the door of the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, your son Xiao Ruofeng requests an audience."

"come in."

Tai'an spoke directly to Xiao Ruofeng at the door.

Hearing Emperor Tai'an's agreement, Xiao Ruofeng slowly walked into the study.

Then he knelt down and saluted: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you, Father."

Emperor Tai'an raised his hand slightly: "Get up."

"Yes, Father."

Xiao Ruofeng stood up.

now.

Emperor Tai'an narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at Xiao Ruofeng with a sharp gaze. His tone was steady but with a subtle sense of oppression.

"Laojiu, the intelligence you sent me earlier said..."

"The person who spread Baili Changge's Western Chu Sword Song was indeed Gu Chen, but he is dead?"

"Are you sure Gu Chen is dead?"

"This matter is of great importance and there must not be any mistakes."

Xiao Ruofeng looked solemn, straightened his body, nodded slightly and said: "Father, I saw it with my own eyes, Gu Chen is indeed dead."

"When I arrived at the scene, the battle was almost over."

"Gu Chen was covered in blood and his breath was weak. I personally witnessed him taking his last breath."

"Furthermore, I conducted a thorough investigation at the scene, not missing a single detail."

"The land around Gu Chen is stained with blood, and the air is filled with a strong smell of blood. His internal injuries are definitely not fake."

"Later, at the funeral, I checked his pulse and breathing, and they confirmed he was dead."

"Only after everything is confirmed to be correct will I dare to report to Father."

Emperor Tai'an was silent for a moment, his face showing no emotion, making it difficult to guess what he was really thinking at the moment.

After a long while, he slowly said, "Is there any information about the medicine man technique?"

"This technique is extremely powerful. If it falls into the wrong hands, the consequences will be disastrous."

Xiao Ruofeng replied, "Father, I am well aware of the dangers of the art of poisoning people. I have conducted a very thorough search in and around the place where Gu Chen died."

"However, no trace of the Medicine Man Technique was found."

Emperor Tai'an nodded, "What about Baili Changge and Baili Dongjun?"

"Can they both do this?"

Xiao Ruofeng shook his head: "Not likely."

"After all, this medicine man technique was not written by Gu Chen. Given Gu Chen's personality, it is highly likely that he will not pass it on to others."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Tai'an nodded slightly.

After all, Gu Chen is a famous Confucian scholar from Western Chu.

Beili was once an enemy of Xichu, so Beili's investigation of Gu Chen was extremely detailed.

Even his character is known clearly.

Gu Chen is indeed not that kind of...

They will take actions to pass on other people's methods to a third party.

On the other side, Xiao Ruofeng continued, "And I have also tried to test Baili Changge's Baili Dongjun."

"I've discovered that the brothers Baili Dongjun and Baili Changge don't understand pharmacology at all, and most likely don't know the art of making people out of medicine."

"Therefore, I infer."

"I think before his death, Gu Chen was well aware of the dangers of this technique and did not pass it on to others."

Emperor Tai'an nodded slightly, his face still expressionless.

"That's great, but we still can't take this matter lightly."

"Old Nine, continue to send people to closely monitor the movements of all parties. If you find any clues about the art of poisoning people, report to me immediately."

Xiao Ruofeng bowed and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured. I know this matter concerns the stability of our country. I will do my utmost to live up to your trust and expectations."

Emperor Tai'an was silent for a while, and looked at Xiao Ruofeng with deep eyes, "Old Nine, you have made great contributions this time, and I know it in my heart."

"But the world's situation is unpredictable, and various forces are surging undercurrents. We cannot slack off in the slightest."

Hearing the words of Emperor Tai'an.

Xiao Ruofeng said solemnly, "Yes, Father. I understand."

Emperor Tai'an raised his hand slightly, "Okay, you can leave."

"If there is any new situation, please report it to me immediately."

Xiao Ruofeng bowed again and said, "I will take my leave."

Then he slowly left the imperial study.

Emperor Tai'an looked at Xiao Ruofeng's departing back, a barely perceptible look of relief flashed across his eyes, but he quickly returned to his unfathomable calmness.

He turned and looked at Zhuoqing.

"Turbid and clear."

"Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

Emperor Tai'an narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Send someone to the ancient tomb in Qiandong City to check and see if his body is still in the coffin."

Zhuo Qing heard this and asked, "Your Majesty, are you still worried?"

Emperor Tai'an shook his head.

"I just wanted to be on the safe side."

"After all, Gu Chen is not an ordinary person. If he really wants to fake his death, it will be difficult for Lao Jiu to find out."

Having said that, Emperor Tai'an gave another reminder.

"Remember to do it secretly, and never let anyone find out."

"After all, he is still a Confucian Immortal from Western Chu, one of the young masters of the Zhenxi Marquisate, and the master of Baili Dongjun."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhuoqing nodded.

Chapter 105 Yueyao and Yueqing were shocked, where is Baili Changge?

Heaven and earth.
