Rebirth of the High Family's Beloved

Due to the death of the Crown Princess, Xie Chengyin was busy looking for clues and basically stayed at Songyaji.

When he returned to the mansion, he found that the entire Yongding Manor was hung with red silk, creating a festive and lively scene.

Xie Chengyin suddenly felt something was wrong and ran straight to the main courtyard. As expected, he saw Xie Chengyi who was directing the servants in the mansion to decorate the hall.

"Brother, when did you come back? What are you doing?"

Xie Chengyi turned around with a bright smile on his face, "I've been back for several days. Where have you been? I haven't seen you for several days. If you come back a few days later, you won't be able to make it to your brother's wedding."

Xie Chengyin was shocked. "Wedding? Didn't we just celebrate the Naji ceremony a month ago?"

"Yes, but there were some minor problems with the wedding ceremony. In order to prevent any complications, the Prime Minister's Mansion discussed with me about moving up the wedding date. I sent the betrothal gifts to the Prime Minister's Mansion a few days ago. I thought it would only be a few days earlier or later, so I agreed."

Just as Xie Chengyin was about to speak out his objection, he remembered that he had also spoken out his objection at the Summer Resort, but the effect was not good. Looking at his brother who was devoted to the decoration, Xie Chengyin suppressed his anger.

He slowed down his tone and said, "I'm afraid this is not appropriate. Now that the Crown Princess has just passed away, it's probably a bit inappropriate to hold the wedding so soon. Why don't we postpone it?"

"This...what you said makes sense. I have considered this matter, but the Prime Minister's Mansion said that it should be done as soon as possible."

"Did the Prime Minister propose it?"

Xie Chengyi nodded, "That's right."

According to his original plan, he was going to spend a few months there, but the prime minister's mansion suddenly sent him a letter to the army, saying that they wanted to renegotiate the marriage, so he rushed back on horseback.

Listening to his brother's words, Xie Chengyin felt more and more that the Prime Minister's actions must have ulterior motives. Although he didn't know what they were planning by doing this, it must be related to the palace or Prince Xiang.

After all, in his previous life, Xiao Chengzhang protected Shen Zhaoyan all the way to the throne, and then he became the prime minister of two dynasties, second only to the emperor.

But this time, he would not let them get their wish no matter what.

Xie Chengyin walked to Xie Chengyi and said, "Since it was proposed by the Prime Minister's Mansion, then let's do as the Prime Minister's Mansion wishes. I will also help my brother prepare."

Xie Chengyi looked at Xie Chengyin with surprise. He thought his brother would object, and he even had prepared some words to persuade his brother. He didn't expect his brother to agree.

He patted Xie Chengyin on the shoulder, the joy on his face was obvious, "Ah Yin, thank you."

Seeing his brother happy, Xie Chengyin was naturally happy too. If this was truly an open and honest wedding, he would be happy to see it happen. However, the red color all over the yard reminded him of the bloody lesson of his previous life.

A cold light flashed in his eyes. He watched his brother walk into the hall again and start busying himself, then turned and left.

Yan Ci arranged for Ding Si to take Congxi to stroll around Dongdu City these days. It seemed like they were just wandering around aimlessly, but in fact, it was to let Congxi secretly investigate for traces of the Heart-Eating Gu.

Jiang Yun died of a heart-eating poison. As long as we find the source of the heart-eating poison, we will naturally find the person who killed Jiang Yun.

It's just that the heart-eating insect has recognized its master, and one of them has already died in Jiang Yun's body. It's uncertain whether there are other heart-eating insects, so it's quite difficult to find them.

Cong Xi and Ding Si walked through all the alleys and streets of Dongdu City, but found no trace.

After working so hard for the past few days, Congxi finally couldn't hold on any longer. Once he arrived at Yan's residence, he refused to move at all.

"I won't walk anymore. I can't walk anymore. I'm going to sleep in the mansion today."

Yan Ci sat on the doorstep, eating melon seeds and looking at the scabby young man. He felt that his scoundrel character did not match his young and handsome appearance at all.

"Congxi, you haven't found anything yet, and you still call yourself a miracle doctor?"

Hearing Yan Ci's sarcasm, Cong Xi, who was lying on the stone table, stood up suddenly.

"You are wrong. It's not my fault that I didn't find it. It's because there is probably no Heart-Eating Gu in Dongdu City. Otherwise, how could the Gu pills made with your blood not attract the Heart-Eating Gu?"

Yan Ci raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Oh? Could it be that the Gu pill you made is not effective, or my blood is useless at all?"

"Impossible!" Cong Xi immediately denied it, and then he looked at Ding Si who was standing aside like a wooden man, "He can testify that your blood has absolute control over the Gu."

"He is not from the Wu tribe, how can he prove it?"

"Although he is not from the Wu tribe, he has been poisoned by a Gu. Anyone who has come into contact with a Gu will have a special smell on their body. I can smell it."

Yan Ci didn't believe it, but seeing Cong Xi's confident look, he didn't discourage his enthusiasm and just said, "In this case, you should find out the people who have been in contact with Gu as soon as possible. Dongdu City is not a witch tribe, and there are not many people who have been in contact with Gu. As long as we can find them, it will be useful."

"I know, but there is indeed none in Dongdu City. However, there is one place we have all overlooked."

"You mean the palace?"

Cong Xi nodded, "That's right, the Crown Princess was poisoned in the palace, so the person who poisoned her is most likely also in the palace. It's this palace that's difficult for us to enter."

"What's so difficult about that? I can take you in."

Xie Chengyin's cheerful voice came from the door, attracting several people in the yard to look over.

When Yan Ci saw Xie Chengyin, his eyes lit up and he stood up to greet him, "Why are you here?"

"Something has happened here, and I want to discuss it with you."

Yan Ci led Xie Chengyin into the house, and the two sat opposite each other. "What's the matter?"

"My brother and Xiao Yizhu's wedding has been brought forward. I guess there must be some action in the palace."

Yan Ci was a little surprised, "What are they going to do?"

"It's still unknown. But the prince's side may not be safe."

Yan Ci frowned, "Then I'll go to the palace."

"No, you can't stay in Chonghua Palace forever. You can ask Congxi to go. He just needs to go to the palace to investigate the Heart-Eating Gu."

"It's appropriate for him to go, but it's the palace confinement..."

"Don't worry about that. I'll take care of it. But you must bring Ding Si with you when you go out recently. I'm worried that Shen Zhaoyan will still attack you."

Yan Ci smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will be careful. You should be careful too, especially your brother's wedding. Do you have any countermeasures?"

"Yes. I'll need your help then."

"I am willing to serve you."

In the prime minister's residence, Xiao Yizhui has been particularly happy these days.

Because she heard from her father that her wedding date with Xie Chengyi had been moved up. It was originally a few months away, but now there is only half a month left.

Although she felt it was a little rushed, she was very happy at the thought of marrying the handsome man she had admired for a long time.

The unpleasantness caused by Najib’s ceremony had long since vanished.
