After renewing the life of the boss, I also lost myself
Chapter 53 (1)
Bai Xingge: "?"
What did Xie Jingshen say?
Probably because he didn't expect the person in front of him to say it with such a serious expression... Slightly teasing words, Bai Xingge's thoughts went blank for a moment, as if trying to put his words in his mind to understand again .
He subconsciously wanted to refute, but when he met Xie Jingshen's serious eyes, he suddenly felt a little confused.
What kind of mentality did Xie Jingshen have in asking this sentence?
And Xie Jingshen, who was wearing a calm expression, actually felt a little flustered in his heart. He didn't know why he suddenly had the idea of wanting to tease Bai Xingge. He saw that the look in his eyes became stunned because of his words, as if he had been caught by someone. As if being bullied, a strange sense of satisfaction even rose in my heart.
Maybe it's because Bai Xingge also said similar things to him, and he still cares about it subconsciously.
Bai Xingge's reaction was quick, he moved his lips, snorted coldly, and replied unhappily: "It seems that Mr. Xie doesn't really want to help this, so there's no need, I'll just figure out a way myself. "
Xie Jingshen hurriedly said before he was really angry and left: "Just kidding, wait."
After leaving such a sentence to Bai Xingge, Xie Jingshen went to knock on the door of Prince An's Mansion alone.It seems that as he said, he has a little friendship with King An, and the gatekeeper is very familiar with him, so he was quickly invited in.
Bai Xingge took the opportunity to ask Murongli about the situation they encountered in the mansion: "Since it wasn't caused by Gu poison, did Mr. Murong notice any other abnormalities in the mansion?"
Murongli thought for a moment before saying: "This time the person who invited us here is actually Prince An's side concubine. She and Princess An are a bit at odds. Mr. Bai should be able to guess the troubles in the rich family's house. At first It was her body that felt unwell. She obviously invited a doctor to see her and said that she was fine, but she couldn't help but have abdominal pain and vomiting at fixed times. Such symptoms were too weird, so she suspected that it was someone Bewitched."
"The object of her suspicion is naturally Princess An, and apart from her, strange things happened to several people in her yard. First, a red rash appeared on the skin, and the rash began to fester after a short time, and even corroded them The inside of the body finally led to their death. I was ordered to go to check the physical condition of the side concubine An and her people who still have this symptom and have not yet died, but I didn’t find out from them. A sign of a voodoo."
"Princess An seems to be very worried about the situation in the mansion. When I left, the side concubine had passed out again, because Lele and I were helpless about it, and Princess An was not very happy. As for other abnormalities..."
"There is nothing unusual about it, and I didn't see any bugs." Miao Lele took his words and looked up at Bai Xingge, "But I think the aesthetics of the people in Prince An's Mansion are a bit strange."
"Lele." Murong Li called her name in a low voice, somewhat disapproving of her talking about others behind his back, but Lele patted his hand in a very childlike manner, and then continued "It's the truth. Out of curiosity, I took advantage of Brother Murong's body check on Concubine An's body and sneaked around her courtyard for a while. I was really just careless. When I passed a room, I heard the There was a strange murmur."
"I swear I really heard it." Lele emphasized suddenly, and then said, "The window of that room was not closed tightly, so I glanced inside through the gap and found half a person inside There is no shadow, only a doll about my size standing in the room."
Bai Xingge was shocked: "Puppet?"
Lele nodded, raised her hand and compared again: "It's about this tall, a little taller than me. She is wearing a beautiful red court dress with wide sleeves and a big cloak. The headgear is the same as the real thing. It’s just that her face is painted all white, her eyeballs are very black, and she also put on makeup, uh... When I saw it, I was shocked, but Brother Murong only focused on reprimanding her. I'm running around."
Miao Lele sighed resentfully as she spoke, took the opportunity to hug Bai Xingge's hand, and looked at him pitifully: "I don't know why, I feel a little scared when I see that woman, I think Her eyes seemed to be looking at me, and she seemed to be alive."
Hearing this, Bai Xingge also had guesses about the source of the resentment, but he couldn't confirm it completely, he had to wait for him to go to the mansion to have a look.
Thinking of this, Xie Jingshen, who had just been respectfully invited into Prince An's residence, came out again.Bai Xingge turned his head to look at him, seeing that he was calm and approaching them at steady steps with his chest upright. For a moment, he seemed to see the wind blowing at his feet, as if because he could easily hold this place. Proud of something.
Bai Xingge was amused by the imagination in his head, and he lowered his head and smiled. Naturally, this was just his secret thought. How could Xie Jingshen be such a person?
But judging by his appearance, he should have arranged everything for them.
"Let's go." Xie Jingshen said, calmly tore Bai Xingge out of Miao Lele's hands, and when he walked side by side towards Prince An's Mansion, he whispered to him, "I met the princess when I came here. Yilin."
"You mean, he knew you were coming to see me?"
"Probably." Xie Jing replied in a deep voice, "It should be because you are poisoned and can't escape his control temporarily, so you are so arrogant. He didn't stop me, and he seemed to know that you were going to come to Prince An's Mansion in person. trip."
But he himself didn't follow?
Bai Xingge lowered his eyes and said nothing, but Xie Jingshen suddenly proposed a bolder idea: "Do you... want to try my blood?"
"Blood?" Bai Xingge was stunned again, and then remembered that Xie Jing had mentioned that the blood in his body could cure all poisons, so he could train his body to be invulnerable to all poisons.But, wouldn't it be too strange to drink blood?
He shook his head and teased with a half-smile, "You have tested a lot of poisons yourself in order to develop this physique, right? So, you must have a lot of toxins in your blood. Are you trying to kill me?"
Xie Jing was silent for a moment, and replied seriously: "Sorry, that's not what I meant."
"I'm sorry you don't dare." Bai Xingge bent the corners of his lips, "Now that you have seen the death curse on your body, you will never doubt my words again? As for the way of relief, although I It is not [-]% sure that this method is effective, but it should be close to [-]%.”
Xie Jing deeply remembered what Bai Xingge had said to him before they separated, and asked, "You mean, you want me to treat you well?"
Bai Xingge smiled so much that he bent his eyes, Xie Jing felt itchy in his heart, as if he couldn't help but want to reach out and grab something.But what exactly it was, he couldn't figure it out.
Miao Lele obediently returned to Murongli's side, and silently followed behind Bai Xingge and Xie Jingshen, but she was quietly watching them from the corner of her big eyes.At the end, she tugged on Murongli's sleeve and said, "Brother Murong, I think that big brother with an ugly expression next to Brother Bai doesn't like me."
Murong Li was stunned, touched her head and said with a smile: "Why? Lele is so cute, and you have never provoked him, how could he not like you?"
"Who knows? Maybe it's because of a natural incompatibility?"
During the chatting process, several people arrived at the meeting hall in the mansion, only then did Bai Xingge realize that Xie Jingshen was so well-respected that even King An came out to greet him in person.
An Wang is a man who is not particularly outstanding. He has a good appearance, and his height is also the average height of most men. He is of medium build. Apart from his innate nobility, he looks no different from ordinary people.In other words, he is a prince who has no airs and is very close to the people.
Just as Wang An was about to say hello to Xie Jingshen, his eyes first turned to surprise when he caught sight of Bai Xingge beside him, and then turned to astonishment. His eyes kept moving on the two of them, as if very surprised why they appeared together?
After staying in the palace for so long, Bai Xingge had naturally met King An.King An is Ji Junyan's sixth elder brother. Since his mother and concubine are the most insignificant concubines in the palace, and they helped Ji Junyan when he was down and bullied, in the battle for the throne, King An relied on The temperament of being indifferent to the world has obtained a fief and lived in Jing'an City, but that's all.
Ji Junyan is very defensive, even if it is King An who has stated early on that he has no intention of seizing the throne, Ji Junyan secretly cut off a lot of his 'wings'.Today's King An is a nominal prince, and even most of the guards in the mansion are under Ji Junyan.If it wasn't necessary, Bai Xingge didn't want to appear here.Someone in Prince An's Mansion must know him, and I am afraid that he is ready to inform Ji Junyan at this moment.
Bai Xinge thought, if it can be resolved as soon as possible.
Xie Jing took a deep look at Bai Xingge, guessed from their expressions that the two of them should know each other, and said to King An without changing his face: "In this case, Mr. Bai's identity is capable, so I don't need to explain further. Really want to enter It's him."
As a person who knows Bai Xingge's ability, King An is not honored by it, and even has an expression as if he is facing an enemy: "Here, Bai... Could it be that Mr. Bai happened to pass by here, so I want to come and see Ben?" King?"
As for the matter of Bai Xingge's escape from the palace, King An, as the prince, naturally received Ji Junyan's instructions.He thought that Bai Xingge must also be aware of this matter, although he said so, but he knew in his heart that if there were no important events, Bai Xingge would not take the initiative to come to visit.
Combined with the recent events in the mansion, An Wang suddenly felt a headache.
The smile on his face was a bit forced, and Bai Xingge couldn't bear it, but he still confessed honestly: "Of course there are important things to deal with, or things that ordinary people can't solve."
King An sighed heavily, dragged his exhausted body to sit down on the main seat, and then invited them to sit together: "Indeed, not only this king's mansion, but even Jing'an City, many strange things have happened recently. The king and the concubine discussed for a long time. At first, they suspected that some unruly people wanted to do something to the people in the palace, so they wrote to invite people from the Five Poisons Sect to help. It's just that the king heard the concubine talking about the affairs in the mansion not long ago. People from the Five Poisons Sect can't handle it either..."
Murong Li felt guilty when he heard it: "I'm sorry, I failed the prince's expectations."
However, Wang An gave up and said, "I don't blame you. Now that I see... Seeing Mr. Bai, I probably understand that we were thinking about it earlier. This matter should have nothing to do with Gu poison."
Murong Li was a little surprised: "It turns out that Young Master Bai and King An are old acquaintances?"
Bai Xingge smiled: "Old acquaintances are not counted, just met a few times by chance. In terms of friendship, it should be no better than King An and Mr. Xie."
In previous years, if there was any big banquet in the palace, King An would be invited and approved to enter the palace. Therefore, Bai Xingge had met him several times.
Even Wang An was infested by ghosts and evil spirits a few years ago, and he got permission from Ji Junyan to meet Bai Xingge and ask him to help him.Bai Xingge was born handsome, it was the first time people saw him, even if he didn't have any charming thoughts about him, it would be difficult to expel his appearance from his memory.
Unexpectedly, the smile on Wang An's face suddenly became a little awkward after hearing this sentence, Xie Jing gave a low laugh, there was no gentle emotion in the laughter, but a little cold.
"..." This, the relationship doesn't look good either?But Xie Jingshen just said clearly outside that he has friendship with King An?
He looked at the two of them suspiciously, and found that Wang An's attitude towards Xie Jingshen was not so much a relationship between friends, but more like being afraid of something about him, so he unconditionally obeyed his request.
Only then did Bai Xingge realize that King An could be regarded as Ji Junyan's man.Logically speaking, Xie Jingshen and him should have an incompatible relationship, but the two of them could sit calmly in the same space.Although, he insisted on reading some kind of emotion from Xie Jingshen's eyes, which was very similar to threat.
Wang An smiled and changed the topic: "It seems that Mr. Murong doesn't know that Mr. Bai is very good at the way of ghosts and gods. If someone in the family is bewitched by evil spirits or provokes difficult evil spirits, he can easily handle the matter. Really talented guy."
Bai Xingge accepted King An's compliment without the slightest guilty conscience: "To be honest, since I entered Jing'an City, I have observed that the city is shrouded in an evil spirit. I happened to pass by Prince An's Mansion, and found that there was such an evil spirit in the mansion. The source of Yin Qi. I just heard Mr. Murong mention earlier that King An suspected that someone who was good at voodoo wanted to harm the palace, so I did not intervene for the time being. Until today, I met a woman in the city who was troubled by Yin Qi and her family was ruined. People... I was worried that this matter would become more and more serious, so I had to visit abruptly as a last resort, and I hope His Highness King An will not be offended."
Wang An was flattered: "No, it is my great honor that you are willing to help."
Murongli saw Wang An's attitude of talking with Bai Xingge, and somehow remembered something, his thoughts were a little wandering, and it took a long time before he came back to his senses.
At this moment, Bai Xingge has already mentioned to King An about the puppet in the mansion.
Bai Xingge originally thought that his side concubine asked someone to bring it back from outside because of curiosity or interest.Unexpectedly, King An knew the origin of this female puppet very well, and he was also very clear about its existence: "Here, Mr. Bai, are you sure?"
"It's just a suspicion. Whether it is true or not can only be confirmed after I have seen it with my own eyes." Bai Xingge replied, "What's wrong? Could it be that this puppet prince is not convenient for me to see?"
King An paused, shook his head and said, "No, it's just that...the puppet was actually sent from the palace."
Bai Xingge was surprised: "When did it happen?" It was sent from the palace, that is, it was given by Ji Junyan?Where did he get this doll from?He suspected that there were pieces of the holy lotus hidden in the puppet. He originally suspected that it was a trick wearing a human|skin|skin|mask|mask, but it turned out that it came from the palace?
King An frowned and recalled: "About a month ago? This doll was delivered to the mansion directly by the people in the palace, and there were many jewels and brocades with her. The eunuch who brought Lilai at that time said roughly It is His Majesty who is satisfied with the palace's non-competition and proper management of Jing'an City. A while ago, foreigners came to the palace to pay tribute, and that doll is one of them. It is said that placing it at home can bring good luck. "
"His Majesty was happy, so he gave the puppet to the palace, and asked the king to take good care of this mascot that can bring good luck." King An paused, and then said, "It's strange to say, this puppet was born at the beginning. When we arrived at the mansion, it really brought a lot of good luck to the mansion, happy events came one after another, and everyone was refreshed. So when something happened in the mansion, everyone didn't suspect it at the first time."
The Tribute of the Foreigners...
Bai Xingge sighed, thinking that this should have happened after he left the palace, but there is no way to investigate it.He was just wondering if this puppet was really a tribute to the palace, or did Ji Junyan find an excuse to deliberately bring this thing to An Wang's house to harm them?
However, if it's the latter, Ji Junyan doesn't seem to have a reason to do so?Although Ji Junyan's behavior style is not human, but he also has a clear hatred.The people who had helped him when he was down and down in the past, he hardly troubled them after he ascended the throne, and even kept them by his side for reuse.
Bai Xingge is one of them.
"The specific situation, we have to wait until it is confirmed. I wonder if it is convenient for the prince...?"
King An nodded and stood up: "It's convenient, Mr. Bai will come with me."
Bai Xingge originally thought that Prince An would bring them to the side concubine's courtyard, but when he saw Prince An's concubine sitting under a big tree in the front yard enjoying the shade, he realized that they had come to the concubine's other courtyard.He slowed down on purpose, and asked in a low voice after walking up to Miao Lele, "Is the place where you saw the doll in this other courtyard?"
Maybe Miao Lele mistakenly recorded the small courtyard of the main concubine as that of the side concubine.
Miao Lele shook her head: "Although I am young, I can still distinguish the other houses of the two princesses. This is the first time I have come to this place."
Princess An had received the notification before they came, so she was not surprised to see them appear.She got up and walked to King An with a dignified and generous smile on her face.The few of them saluted her, and then heard her say: "The prince wants to bring some guests to see the dolls that His Majesty rewarded, right?"
"Yes, where did Aifei put it?"
Concubine An smiled lightly: "The side hall has already been transformed into her exclusive room, so it's still where it is, everyone, follow me."
Bai Xingge thought for a moment, then casually asked as if chatting: "Did the prince give the doll to the princess?"
King An knew who the concubine was referring to, and said with a smile: "Naturally, there is only one statue after all, and the clothes on her body are very grand, with the demeanor of a lady and the head of the house. Naturally, it should be placed in Ning'an Garden." of."
Ning'an Court is the other courtyard belonging to the concubine, and it is also the largest courtyard in the mansion besides the prince's own main courtyard.Concubine An was a marriage contract bestowed by the first emperor of Shuo Kingdom when she was still alive. She is the daughter of the Hou family and has a relatively large background.In fact, Bai Xingge only knew that King An had a main concubine, if it wasn't for Murong Li's arrival, he would not have known when King An had accepted a side concubine.
However, he also captured another important message.
There is only one puppet in the entire palace?Moreover, according to Wang An and Concubine An, the doll has never been moved after it was sent to Ning An Garden, so why did Miao Lele say that she saw it in the side concubine's other courtyard...?
Full of doubts, Bai Xingge followed King An and Princess An to the side hall where the puppets were placed.After seeing it at a glance, Bai Xingge realized that Miao Lele's description was not exaggerated at all.
The appearance of the doll was almost the same as what Miao Lele said, except that it was a little bigger than he imagined.Princess An is not a very petite woman, but standing in front of the doll, the doll is only a little shorter than her.The clothes on her body are very gorgeous, the red coat is embroidered with gold silk phoenix soaring, and there is a drape on it, and on the neatly combed hair, she also wears a thick golden oath inlaid with rubies.
Like a woman whose mother loves the world.
Bai Xingge was a little stunned.
Aside from the weird makeup on her face, the master who made this puppet really has a great craftsmanship, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is ingenious.Her slightly exposed fingers, facial features, and even her eyes are all so lifelike that it's hard to tell the truth from the fake.If they hadn't already known in their hearts that she was just a puppet, they might have mistaken her for a living person the moment they entered.
It's just that according to the meaning represented by the shape of this puppet, shouldn't it be more appropriate for Ji Junyan to leave it to the queen than to send it to Prince An's Mansion?
There is a queen in Shuo State, but the two seem to be married by agreement. The queen should be happy with Ji Junyan, but the latter's attitude towards her is very cold. Even the queen has great hostility towards Bai Xingge, thinking that he abducted her Ji Junyan always tried every means to trip him up in the palace.
Bai Xingge thought to himself, Ji Junyan did this on purpose, right?
"She's beautiful, isn't she?" Princess An seemed to like this doll very much, and she never left her eyes after entering the side hall, and she even had a bit of nostalgia for it.
Miao Lele, who was standing beside Murongli, shook her shoulders and said, "Look, am I right?" ' expression, firmly unable to agree with Princess An's aesthetics.
Bai Xingge took the opportunity to observe the puppet in front of him, and as soon as he fully opened his eyes, Yin Qi rushed towards his face, like a dragon with teeth and claws, constantly rushing towards him.It's just that he has spiritual protection all over his body, so he won't be easily affected by these Yin Qi.
But Xie Jingshen may not.
The moment he saw these surging yin energy, he immediately thought of Xie Jingshen, and hurriedly turned his head to look at him.The expression on his face is still the same as usual, and it seems that he can't see the puppet like him... Now it should be called a ghost puppet, with the yin energy on his body.It's just that these yin qi sensed the death curse on him, and they were also trying to induce the curse qi on him. Fortunately, the spell that Bai Xingge set on him earlier protected him from being invaded successfully.
However, he felt that Xie Jingshen should be uncomfortable.
Bai Xingge remembered that when he was disturbed by the Ice Gu earlier, it was Xie Jingshen who agreed to his rude request and lent him his body to drive away the cold.He thought, in exchange, he should thank Jing Shen for helping him through this difficult time.
Xie Jingshen indeed felt some inexplicable discomfort after stepping into the room, and he didn't know if it was an illusion. He seemed to vaguely see some phantom shaking in the puppet praised by Princess An, but he couldn't see it clearly.Feeling unwell and irritable because of the headache, he saw Bai Xingge standing next to him suddenly, raised his head and smiled at himself.
Xie Jingshen began to wonder whether the smile on Bai Xingge's face had any healing effect, otherwise why would his discomfort fade away at an extremely fast speed after the other party approached him, replaced by a comfortable and peaceful feeling .
"There is a very fierce female spirit in the doll." Bai Xingge's voice called his attention back.
Bai Xingge didn't realize that Xie Jingshen looked at him with gradually darkened eyes, and his mind fell on the puppet in front of him: "She should have died unjustly, and she seems to have a lot of obsession in her heart. Her soul was captured by others. Trapped to death in a puppet, being restricted in her freedom made her resentment more serious and violent. Fortunately, she discovered it early. According to her red-lighted resentment, if it is half a month later, the entire Jing'an City may be They will all become her sacrifices."
The female ghost obviously did not voluntarily possess the puppet, and the person who trapped her in the puppet used a magic technique similar to the magic of binding immortals. Unfortunately, Bai Xingge really knew about it, and also knew how to solve it. .It's just that the female ghost is so resentful that Bai Xingge dare not release her rashly, and it will become even more difficult to deal with her.
There are several spells drawn by the female ghost. Apart from the palace, these spells are connected to every corner of Jing'an City. It must be the way she remotely manipulates those death spells.Similarly, there are very few ghosts in Jing'an City, and Bai Xinge hardly saw any lonely ghosts in the city.And for those who died, Bai Xingge also couldn't recruit their souls.
With familiar operating methods, Bai Xingge can almost confirm that this puppet must be related to the masked man.It's just that he was a little curious why this thing flowed into the palace?Does Ji Junyan know the secret here?Could it be that the person the masked man actually wants to deal with is the people in the palace?
If he really stretched his hands into the palace, he would be in serious trouble.
Xie Jing listened quietly to Bai Xingge's talk about the puppet, and saw that his brows were getting deeper and deeper, so he asked aloud, "What's wrong? It's difficult to deal with?"
"It's not difficult." Bai Xingge disliked his ability being questioned the most, so he snorted and said, "This little trick, people who haven't even mastered the art, still want to use the ax in front of me?"
However, if you want to deal with this puppet, you must break the puppet.Moreover, many spells were cast on the puppet, and after those spells were deciphered one by one by him, with the departure of the female spirit, the puppet would eventually shatter.He felt that since this ghost puppet was sent to King An and the others, Ji Junyan even 'threatened' to take good care of it. If it was broken, wouldn't Ji Junyan find a chance for them to punish them?
Sure enough, when Bai Xingge brought up the matter, Wang An and Princess An showed embarrassing expressions, and Princess An obviously liked this puppet very much, and even suspected Bai Xingge's motives, and forgot to hide his identity from others for a while : "Your Majesty's temper is very clear to the Master, are you trying to frame Prince An's Mansion?"
Bai Xingge pursed his lips and did not reply, Murongli was only slightly taken aback after hearing Princess An's words, but did not show any expression of surprise or rejection.Miao Lele was naive, she blinked her eyes and exclaimed: "Brother Bai is the very beautiful Great Master who everyone was discussing a while ago and ran out of the palace!"
Bai Xingge was amused by her directness, but he didn't mind his identity being exposed, anyway, Ji Junyan would find out that he had been to Prince An's Mansion sooner or later.
Before he could respond to Wang An and Princess An's concerns, their conversation was interrupted by a maid who rushed in.
It turned out that something happened to the side concubine.
It seems that Princess An really doesn't like the side concubine, and she has no intention of hiding her feelings in front of others.After hearing the maid say that the side concubine was starting to feel unwell again, the expression on her face instantly became indifferent, and she even frowned in displeasure.
"My lord, hurry up and deal with my sister's affairs. While the master of the state is here, let him take a look at my sister's physical condition. After all, she was the first person in the mansion to get sick. Who knows if she is the one who caused the disease?" The biggest source of farce?"
After Princess An left such a sentence, she took her personal maid back to her room to rest.It was a little embarrassing for Wang An to be so neglected by her, but he knew that he couldn't help her, so he had no choice but to bear it. He turned around and said to Bai Xingge: "The princess is also reasonable. I don't know if Mr. Bai is willing to follow this The king is going this way?"
"Naturally." Bai Xingge responded with a smile, and gave the puppet in the side hall a meaningful look, "Anyway, it's not time to deal with her affairs yet."
In a daze, the phantom seemed to shake after hearing Bai Xingge's words, and made a little noise, even Wang An heard the movement.Ever since he heard Bai Xingge say that there was a female ghost hidden in the puppet, he couldn't help feeling creepy when he looked at her again.He is not so obsessed with this puppet like Princess An.He would hesitate to let Bai Xingge deal with it, mainly because he was worried about Ji Junyan.
He could feel that Ji Junyan's attitude towards him had begun to change over the years, even though he had actually done nothing.But Ji Junyan is a very suspicious person. After staying in Jing'an City for so long, he has long since stayed away from the imperial city. On the contrary, he has a little understanding of what happened in Jianghu.People in the city come and go, he will inevitably meet some people from the Jianghu, Xie Jingshen is one of them.
Wang An has a pure personality, and he doesn't have any ambitions in his heart. He just wants to live the rest of his life in peace and without worrying about food and clothing.It's just that, growing up in the palace since he was a child, and now being confined in his own fief and unable to leave, he also yearns for the rivers and lakes that are often mentioned in the storybook.Therefore, if he meets people from the Jianghu who are in trouble within Jing'an City, as long as they are not some vicious people, he will lend a helping hand.
I don't know if it's because of this that Ji Junyan began to feel bad for him.He was also worried that Bai Xingge's escape from the palace was actually just fake news released by Ji Junyan to deceive people. In fact, the two of them cooperated.Bai Xingge also came here with an impure purpose, and wanted to give Ji Junyan an opportunity to get rid of him, or punish him a little, or warn him.
King An's side concubine is a rather delicate-looking woman, not stunning, but her eyes are particularly attractive.Compared with Concubine An, her figure looks much weaker, because she was plagued by illness, the moment she saw Wang An, she shed tears of grievance, crying pear blossoms with rain.Compared with Concubine An's dignity and reserve, this side concubine obviously knew how to act like a baby, and she said a few words that made Wang An feel distressed.
"My lord, who are these...?" Wang Concubine An was still lying weakly on the bed, and she probably hadn't seen any guests for a long time, but all of them had good looks and extraordinary manners, so she couldn't help but shyly hid hide.
Especially when Bai Xingge came in, he never took his eyes off her. Facing his seductive fox eyes, her cheeks blushed slightly.
Bai Xingge mainly wanted to see her physical condition, but it turned out to be an unexpected harvest.
Concubine An's body is indeed connected with the ghost puppet's death curse. Judging by the degree of contamination by the curse, she may bleed to death from seven orifices in less than three days.But what surprised him even more was that he discovered that there was a causal connection between the side concubine and the puppet, or the female spirit in the puppet.
That connection line is a bit strange, it seems that the origin is quite deep, but they owe each other.
Bai Xingge suddenly became a little uncertain again. Could it be that the female ghost in the ghost puppet came to Prince An's Mansion with a purpose?To seek revenge on Prince An's side concubine?
He took a closer look at Wang An's side concubine, and saw that there was no blood debt on her body.
Bai Xingge was puzzled, but Xie Jingshen who was beside him suddenly gave him a light tug.
"What's the matter? Are you still uncomfortable?" Bai Xingge subconsciously thought that his body was still affected by Yin Qi and felt uncomfortable, and before Xie Jingshen answered, he took the initiative to stretch out his hand, "Then you hold me, I will There is a divine blessing on your body, which can ease your physical discomfort."
Bai Xingge felt a little sorry for Xie Jingshen, after all, he was just an outsider this time, if it wasn't for saving him, for helping him enter Prince An's Mansion, he didn't need to appear here.
Xie Jing stared at his hand in deep silence for a moment, then grabbed it with a very calm expression: "I'm sorry to trouble you."
"No, isn't it just holding hands?" Bai Xingge said indifferently.
Xie Jing pursed her lips deeply, but finally did not interrupt his thoughts.
At first, he just wanted to remind Bai Xingge that the person on the bed was the side concubine An after all, and it seemed a bit uncomfortable for him to stare at her so generously, but he didn't expect that Bai Xingge was still thinking about his physical problems.
In fact, Xie Jingshen no longer felt uncomfortable not long after Bai Xingge approached him, but when he saw Bai Xingge's hand stretched out towards him, he still grabbed it by mistake.
He didn't know why he did it.
"You said that if I want to alleviate the situation on my body, I need to treat you well." Xie Jingshen asked suddenly.
Bai Xingge looked at King An and his side concubine, and responded, "Yes."
Xie Jingshen wanted to know the scope and definition of this good word. He was about to ask in detail when the side concubine, who was still lying in Wang An's arms acting like a spoiled child, suddenly darkened. After pushing Wang An away heavily, she lay down beside the bed and coughed violently. stand up.
This time everyone saw it, and she directly coughed up blood all over the place.The weak man's expression instantly turned to panic, Wang An was also anxious, and turned his head to ask Bai Xingge the solution.
Bai Xingge remained silent, but chose to tell them the truth: "I said just now that there is a female resentful spirit trapped in the puppet in the side hall, including the physical condition of the prince and concubine, which is also disturbed by the spell. only……"
"but?"
He paused, and asked the side concubine An: "I don't know if Concubine Yue has ever known someone who is about five feet three tall, with ink-colored hair and slightly curly hair, looks pretty, and has a crescent moon mark on her neck." Girl?"
After the question, he paid special attention to the expression of the side concubine, her eyes froze, as if she was really lost in thought about his question.Then she didn't know if she had thought of anything, she just covered her slightly aching chest with a pale face, shook her head and replied: "Nothing."
Xie Jingshen noticed that after hearing the description in Bai Xingge's question, a strange color seemed to flash across Murongli's face, and he immediately began to lose consciousness.
Bai Xingge couldn't tell from the expression on Wang Concubine An's face whether she had concealed it, so he could only tell the truth: "To tell the truth, when I checked Concubine Yue's body just now, apart from seeing the female ghost in the moon In addition to the imprint of the spell left on the concubine, I also accidentally discovered that there is a special causal line between you. However, the connection between you is a bit complicated, and I am not completely sure whether it is a relationship between relatives, friends or enemies, so I just This question will be asked."
"I..." Concubine Yue paused for a moment, and said firmly: "No, I, I have lost my mother since I was young, and I have been wandering in the rivers and lakes alone for many years. Only in the palace can I live a comfortable life today. I have never harmed anyone in my life, and it is difficult to even kill a chicken, let alone kill someone."
"I do
What did Xie Jingshen say?
Probably because he didn't expect the person in front of him to say it with such a serious expression... Slightly teasing words, Bai Xingge's thoughts went blank for a moment, as if trying to put his words in his mind to understand again .
He subconsciously wanted to refute, but when he met Xie Jingshen's serious eyes, he suddenly felt a little confused.
What kind of mentality did Xie Jingshen have in asking this sentence?
And Xie Jingshen, who was wearing a calm expression, actually felt a little flustered in his heart. He didn't know why he suddenly had the idea of wanting to tease Bai Xingge. He saw that the look in his eyes became stunned because of his words, as if he had been caught by someone. As if being bullied, a strange sense of satisfaction even rose in my heart.
Maybe it's because Bai Xingge also said similar things to him, and he still cares about it subconsciously.
Bai Xingge's reaction was quick, he moved his lips, snorted coldly, and replied unhappily: "It seems that Mr. Xie doesn't really want to help this, so there's no need, I'll just figure out a way myself. "
Xie Jingshen hurriedly said before he was really angry and left: "Just kidding, wait."
After leaving such a sentence to Bai Xingge, Xie Jingshen went to knock on the door of Prince An's Mansion alone.It seems that as he said, he has a little friendship with King An, and the gatekeeper is very familiar with him, so he was quickly invited in.
Bai Xingge took the opportunity to ask Murongli about the situation they encountered in the mansion: "Since it wasn't caused by Gu poison, did Mr. Murong notice any other abnormalities in the mansion?"
Murongli thought for a moment before saying: "This time the person who invited us here is actually Prince An's side concubine. She and Princess An are a bit at odds. Mr. Bai should be able to guess the troubles in the rich family's house. At first It was her body that felt unwell. She obviously invited a doctor to see her and said that she was fine, but she couldn't help but have abdominal pain and vomiting at fixed times. Such symptoms were too weird, so she suspected that it was someone Bewitched."
"The object of her suspicion is naturally Princess An, and apart from her, strange things happened to several people in her yard. First, a red rash appeared on the skin, and the rash began to fester after a short time, and even corroded them The inside of the body finally led to their death. I was ordered to go to check the physical condition of the side concubine An and her people who still have this symptom and have not yet died, but I didn’t find out from them. A sign of a voodoo."
"Princess An seems to be very worried about the situation in the mansion. When I left, the side concubine had passed out again, because Lele and I were helpless about it, and Princess An was not very happy. As for other abnormalities..."
"There is nothing unusual about it, and I didn't see any bugs." Miao Lele took his words and looked up at Bai Xingge, "But I think the aesthetics of the people in Prince An's Mansion are a bit strange."
"Lele." Murong Li called her name in a low voice, somewhat disapproving of her talking about others behind his back, but Lele patted his hand in a very childlike manner, and then continued "It's the truth. Out of curiosity, I took advantage of Brother Murong's body check on Concubine An's body and sneaked around her courtyard for a while. I was really just careless. When I passed a room, I heard the There was a strange murmur."
"I swear I really heard it." Lele emphasized suddenly, and then said, "The window of that room was not closed tightly, so I glanced inside through the gap and found half a person inside There is no shadow, only a doll about my size standing in the room."
Bai Xingge was shocked: "Puppet?"
Lele nodded, raised her hand and compared again: "It's about this tall, a little taller than me. She is wearing a beautiful red court dress with wide sleeves and a big cloak. The headgear is the same as the real thing. It’s just that her face is painted all white, her eyeballs are very black, and she also put on makeup, uh... When I saw it, I was shocked, but Brother Murong only focused on reprimanding her. I'm running around."
Miao Lele sighed resentfully as she spoke, took the opportunity to hug Bai Xingge's hand, and looked at him pitifully: "I don't know why, I feel a little scared when I see that woman, I think Her eyes seemed to be looking at me, and she seemed to be alive."
Hearing this, Bai Xingge also had guesses about the source of the resentment, but he couldn't confirm it completely, he had to wait for him to go to the mansion to have a look.
Thinking of this, Xie Jingshen, who had just been respectfully invited into Prince An's residence, came out again.Bai Xingge turned his head to look at him, seeing that he was calm and approaching them at steady steps with his chest upright. For a moment, he seemed to see the wind blowing at his feet, as if because he could easily hold this place. Proud of something.
Bai Xingge was amused by the imagination in his head, and he lowered his head and smiled. Naturally, this was just his secret thought. How could Xie Jingshen be such a person?
But judging by his appearance, he should have arranged everything for them.
"Let's go." Xie Jingshen said, calmly tore Bai Xingge out of Miao Lele's hands, and when he walked side by side towards Prince An's Mansion, he whispered to him, "I met the princess when I came here. Yilin."
"You mean, he knew you were coming to see me?"
"Probably." Xie Jing replied in a deep voice, "It should be because you are poisoned and can't escape his control temporarily, so you are so arrogant. He didn't stop me, and he seemed to know that you were going to come to Prince An's Mansion in person. trip."
But he himself didn't follow?
Bai Xingge lowered his eyes and said nothing, but Xie Jingshen suddenly proposed a bolder idea: "Do you... want to try my blood?"
"Blood?" Bai Xingge was stunned again, and then remembered that Xie Jing had mentioned that the blood in his body could cure all poisons, so he could train his body to be invulnerable to all poisons.But, wouldn't it be too strange to drink blood?
He shook his head and teased with a half-smile, "You have tested a lot of poisons yourself in order to develop this physique, right? So, you must have a lot of toxins in your blood. Are you trying to kill me?"
Xie Jing was silent for a moment, and replied seriously: "Sorry, that's not what I meant."
"I'm sorry you don't dare." Bai Xingge bent the corners of his lips, "Now that you have seen the death curse on your body, you will never doubt my words again? As for the way of relief, although I It is not [-]% sure that this method is effective, but it should be close to [-]%.”
Xie Jing deeply remembered what Bai Xingge had said to him before they separated, and asked, "You mean, you want me to treat you well?"
Bai Xingge smiled so much that he bent his eyes, Xie Jing felt itchy in his heart, as if he couldn't help but want to reach out and grab something.But what exactly it was, he couldn't figure it out.
Miao Lele obediently returned to Murongli's side, and silently followed behind Bai Xingge and Xie Jingshen, but she was quietly watching them from the corner of her big eyes.At the end, she tugged on Murongli's sleeve and said, "Brother Murong, I think that big brother with an ugly expression next to Brother Bai doesn't like me."
Murong Li was stunned, touched her head and said with a smile: "Why? Lele is so cute, and you have never provoked him, how could he not like you?"
"Who knows? Maybe it's because of a natural incompatibility?"
During the chatting process, several people arrived at the meeting hall in the mansion, only then did Bai Xingge realize that Xie Jingshen was so well-respected that even King An came out to greet him in person.
An Wang is a man who is not particularly outstanding. He has a good appearance, and his height is also the average height of most men. He is of medium build. Apart from his innate nobility, he looks no different from ordinary people.In other words, he is a prince who has no airs and is very close to the people.
Just as Wang An was about to say hello to Xie Jingshen, his eyes first turned to surprise when he caught sight of Bai Xingge beside him, and then turned to astonishment. His eyes kept moving on the two of them, as if very surprised why they appeared together?
After staying in the palace for so long, Bai Xingge had naturally met King An.King An is Ji Junyan's sixth elder brother. Since his mother and concubine are the most insignificant concubines in the palace, and they helped Ji Junyan when he was down and bullied, in the battle for the throne, King An relied on The temperament of being indifferent to the world has obtained a fief and lived in Jing'an City, but that's all.
Ji Junyan is very defensive, even if it is King An who has stated early on that he has no intention of seizing the throne, Ji Junyan secretly cut off a lot of his 'wings'.Today's King An is a nominal prince, and even most of the guards in the mansion are under Ji Junyan.If it wasn't necessary, Bai Xingge didn't want to appear here.Someone in Prince An's Mansion must know him, and I am afraid that he is ready to inform Ji Junyan at this moment.
Bai Xinge thought, if it can be resolved as soon as possible.
Xie Jing took a deep look at Bai Xingge, guessed from their expressions that the two of them should know each other, and said to King An without changing his face: "In this case, Mr. Bai's identity is capable, so I don't need to explain further. Really want to enter It's him."
As a person who knows Bai Xingge's ability, King An is not honored by it, and even has an expression as if he is facing an enemy: "Here, Bai... Could it be that Mr. Bai happened to pass by here, so I want to come and see Ben?" King?"
As for the matter of Bai Xingge's escape from the palace, King An, as the prince, naturally received Ji Junyan's instructions.He thought that Bai Xingge must also be aware of this matter, although he said so, but he knew in his heart that if there were no important events, Bai Xingge would not take the initiative to come to visit.
Combined with the recent events in the mansion, An Wang suddenly felt a headache.
The smile on his face was a bit forced, and Bai Xingge couldn't bear it, but he still confessed honestly: "Of course there are important things to deal with, or things that ordinary people can't solve."
King An sighed heavily, dragged his exhausted body to sit down on the main seat, and then invited them to sit together: "Indeed, not only this king's mansion, but even Jing'an City, many strange things have happened recently. The king and the concubine discussed for a long time. At first, they suspected that some unruly people wanted to do something to the people in the palace, so they wrote to invite people from the Five Poisons Sect to help. It's just that the king heard the concubine talking about the affairs in the mansion not long ago. People from the Five Poisons Sect can't handle it either..."
Murong Li felt guilty when he heard it: "I'm sorry, I failed the prince's expectations."
However, Wang An gave up and said, "I don't blame you. Now that I see... Seeing Mr. Bai, I probably understand that we were thinking about it earlier. This matter should have nothing to do with Gu poison."
Murong Li was a little surprised: "It turns out that Young Master Bai and King An are old acquaintances?"
Bai Xingge smiled: "Old acquaintances are not counted, just met a few times by chance. In terms of friendship, it should be no better than King An and Mr. Xie."
In previous years, if there was any big banquet in the palace, King An would be invited and approved to enter the palace. Therefore, Bai Xingge had met him several times.
Even Wang An was infested by ghosts and evil spirits a few years ago, and he got permission from Ji Junyan to meet Bai Xingge and ask him to help him.Bai Xingge was born handsome, it was the first time people saw him, even if he didn't have any charming thoughts about him, it would be difficult to expel his appearance from his memory.
Unexpectedly, the smile on Wang An's face suddenly became a little awkward after hearing this sentence, Xie Jing gave a low laugh, there was no gentle emotion in the laughter, but a little cold.
"..." This, the relationship doesn't look good either?But Xie Jingshen just said clearly outside that he has friendship with King An?
He looked at the two of them suspiciously, and found that Wang An's attitude towards Xie Jingshen was not so much a relationship between friends, but more like being afraid of something about him, so he unconditionally obeyed his request.
Only then did Bai Xingge realize that King An could be regarded as Ji Junyan's man.Logically speaking, Xie Jingshen and him should have an incompatible relationship, but the two of them could sit calmly in the same space.Although, he insisted on reading some kind of emotion from Xie Jingshen's eyes, which was very similar to threat.
Wang An smiled and changed the topic: "It seems that Mr. Murong doesn't know that Mr. Bai is very good at the way of ghosts and gods. If someone in the family is bewitched by evil spirits or provokes difficult evil spirits, he can easily handle the matter. Really talented guy."
Bai Xingge accepted King An's compliment without the slightest guilty conscience: "To be honest, since I entered Jing'an City, I have observed that the city is shrouded in an evil spirit. I happened to pass by Prince An's Mansion, and found that there was such an evil spirit in the mansion. The source of Yin Qi. I just heard Mr. Murong mention earlier that King An suspected that someone who was good at voodoo wanted to harm the palace, so I did not intervene for the time being. Until today, I met a woman in the city who was troubled by Yin Qi and her family was ruined. People... I was worried that this matter would become more and more serious, so I had to visit abruptly as a last resort, and I hope His Highness King An will not be offended."
Wang An was flattered: "No, it is my great honor that you are willing to help."
Murongli saw Wang An's attitude of talking with Bai Xingge, and somehow remembered something, his thoughts were a little wandering, and it took a long time before he came back to his senses.
At this moment, Bai Xingge has already mentioned to King An about the puppet in the mansion.
Bai Xingge originally thought that his side concubine asked someone to bring it back from outside because of curiosity or interest.Unexpectedly, King An knew the origin of this female puppet very well, and he was also very clear about its existence: "Here, Mr. Bai, are you sure?"
"It's just a suspicion. Whether it is true or not can only be confirmed after I have seen it with my own eyes." Bai Xingge replied, "What's wrong? Could it be that this puppet prince is not convenient for me to see?"
King An paused, shook his head and said, "No, it's just that...the puppet was actually sent from the palace."
Bai Xingge was surprised: "When did it happen?" It was sent from the palace, that is, it was given by Ji Junyan?Where did he get this doll from?He suspected that there were pieces of the holy lotus hidden in the puppet. He originally suspected that it was a trick wearing a human|skin|skin|mask|mask, but it turned out that it came from the palace?
King An frowned and recalled: "About a month ago? This doll was delivered to the mansion directly by the people in the palace, and there were many jewels and brocades with her. The eunuch who brought Lilai at that time said roughly It is His Majesty who is satisfied with the palace's non-competition and proper management of Jing'an City. A while ago, foreigners came to the palace to pay tribute, and that doll is one of them. It is said that placing it at home can bring good luck. "
"His Majesty was happy, so he gave the puppet to the palace, and asked the king to take good care of this mascot that can bring good luck." King An paused, and then said, "It's strange to say, this puppet was born at the beginning. When we arrived at the mansion, it really brought a lot of good luck to the mansion, happy events came one after another, and everyone was refreshed. So when something happened in the mansion, everyone didn't suspect it at the first time."
The Tribute of the Foreigners...
Bai Xingge sighed, thinking that this should have happened after he left the palace, but there is no way to investigate it.He was just wondering if this puppet was really a tribute to the palace, or did Ji Junyan find an excuse to deliberately bring this thing to An Wang's house to harm them?
However, if it's the latter, Ji Junyan doesn't seem to have a reason to do so?Although Ji Junyan's behavior style is not human, but he also has a clear hatred.The people who had helped him when he was down and down in the past, he hardly troubled them after he ascended the throne, and even kept them by his side for reuse.
Bai Xingge is one of them.
"The specific situation, we have to wait until it is confirmed. I wonder if it is convenient for the prince...?"
King An nodded and stood up: "It's convenient, Mr. Bai will come with me."
Bai Xingge originally thought that Prince An would bring them to the side concubine's courtyard, but when he saw Prince An's concubine sitting under a big tree in the front yard enjoying the shade, he realized that they had come to the concubine's other courtyard.He slowed down on purpose, and asked in a low voice after walking up to Miao Lele, "Is the place where you saw the doll in this other courtyard?"
Maybe Miao Lele mistakenly recorded the small courtyard of the main concubine as that of the side concubine.
Miao Lele shook her head: "Although I am young, I can still distinguish the other houses of the two princesses. This is the first time I have come to this place."
Princess An had received the notification before they came, so she was not surprised to see them appear.She got up and walked to King An with a dignified and generous smile on her face.The few of them saluted her, and then heard her say: "The prince wants to bring some guests to see the dolls that His Majesty rewarded, right?"
"Yes, where did Aifei put it?"
Concubine An smiled lightly: "The side hall has already been transformed into her exclusive room, so it's still where it is, everyone, follow me."
Bai Xingge thought for a moment, then casually asked as if chatting: "Did the prince give the doll to the princess?"
King An knew who the concubine was referring to, and said with a smile: "Naturally, there is only one statue after all, and the clothes on her body are very grand, with the demeanor of a lady and the head of the house. Naturally, it should be placed in Ning'an Garden." of."
Ning'an Court is the other courtyard belonging to the concubine, and it is also the largest courtyard in the mansion besides the prince's own main courtyard.Concubine An was a marriage contract bestowed by the first emperor of Shuo Kingdom when she was still alive. She is the daughter of the Hou family and has a relatively large background.In fact, Bai Xingge only knew that King An had a main concubine, if it wasn't for Murong Li's arrival, he would not have known when King An had accepted a side concubine.
However, he also captured another important message.
There is only one puppet in the entire palace?Moreover, according to Wang An and Concubine An, the doll has never been moved after it was sent to Ning An Garden, so why did Miao Lele say that she saw it in the side concubine's other courtyard...?
Full of doubts, Bai Xingge followed King An and Princess An to the side hall where the puppets were placed.After seeing it at a glance, Bai Xingge realized that Miao Lele's description was not exaggerated at all.
The appearance of the doll was almost the same as what Miao Lele said, except that it was a little bigger than he imagined.Princess An is not a very petite woman, but standing in front of the doll, the doll is only a little shorter than her.The clothes on her body are very gorgeous, the red coat is embroidered with gold silk phoenix soaring, and there is a drape on it, and on the neatly combed hair, she also wears a thick golden oath inlaid with rubies.
Like a woman whose mother loves the world.
Bai Xingge was a little stunned.
Aside from the weird makeup on her face, the master who made this puppet really has a great craftsmanship, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is ingenious.Her slightly exposed fingers, facial features, and even her eyes are all so lifelike that it's hard to tell the truth from the fake.If they hadn't already known in their hearts that she was just a puppet, they might have mistaken her for a living person the moment they entered.
It's just that according to the meaning represented by the shape of this puppet, shouldn't it be more appropriate for Ji Junyan to leave it to the queen than to send it to Prince An's Mansion?
There is a queen in Shuo State, but the two seem to be married by agreement. The queen should be happy with Ji Junyan, but the latter's attitude towards her is very cold. Even the queen has great hostility towards Bai Xingge, thinking that he abducted her Ji Junyan always tried every means to trip him up in the palace.
Bai Xingge thought to himself, Ji Junyan did this on purpose, right?
"She's beautiful, isn't she?" Princess An seemed to like this doll very much, and she never left her eyes after entering the side hall, and she even had a bit of nostalgia for it.
Miao Lele, who was standing beside Murongli, shook her shoulders and said, "Look, am I right?" ' expression, firmly unable to agree with Princess An's aesthetics.
Bai Xingge took the opportunity to observe the puppet in front of him, and as soon as he fully opened his eyes, Yin Qi rushed towards his face, like a dragon with teeth and claws, constantly rushing towards him.It's just that he has spiritual protection all over his body, so he won't be easily affected by these Yin Qi.
But Xie Jingshen may not.
The moment he saw these surging yin energy, he immediately thought of Xie Jingshen, and hurriedly turned his head to look at him.The expression on his face is still the same as usual, and it seems that he can't see the puppet like him... Now it should be called a ghost puppet, with the yin energy on his body.It's just that these yin qi sensed the death curse on him, and they were also trying to induce the curse qi on him. Fortunately, the spell that Bai Xingge set on him earlier protected him from being invaded successfully.
However, he felt that Xie Jingshen should be uncomfortable.
Bai Xingge remembered that when he was disturbed by the Ice Gu earlier, it was Xie Jingshen who agreed to his rude request and lent him his body to drive away the cold.He thought, in exchange, he should thank Jing Shen for helping him through this difficult time.
Xie Jingshen indeed felt some inexplicable discomfort after stepping into the room, and he didn't know if it was an illusion. He seemed to vaguely see some phantom shaking in the puppet praised by Princess An, but he couldn't see it clearly.Feeling unwell and irritable because of the headache, he saw Bai Xingge standing next to him suddenly, raised his head and smiled at himself.
Xie Jingshen began to wonder whether the smile on Bai Xingge's face had any healing effect, otherwise why would his discomfort fade away at an extremely fast speed after the other party approached him, replaced by a comfortable and peaceful feeling .
"There is a very fierce female spirit in the doll." Bai Xingge's voice called his attention back.
Bai Xingge didn't realize that Xie Jingshen looked at him with gradually darkened eyes, and his mind fell on the puppet in front of him: "She should have died unjustly, and she seems to have a lot of obsession in her heart. Her soul was captured by others. Trapped to death in a puppet, being restricted in her freedom made her resentment more serious and violent. Fortunately, she discovered it early. According to her red-lighted resentment, if it is half a month later, the entire Jing'an City may be They will all become her sacrifices."
The female ghost obviously did not voluntarily possess the puppet, and the person who trapped her in the puppet used a magic technique similar to the magic of binding immortals. Unfortunately, Bai Xingge really knew about it, and also knew how to solve it. .It's just that the female ghost is so resentful that Bai Xingge dare not release her rashly, and it will become even more difficult to deal with her.
There are several spells drawn by the female ghost. Apart from the palace, these spells are connected to every corner of Jing'an City. It must be the way she remotely manipulates those death spells.Similarly, there are very few ghosts in Jing'an City, and Bai Xinge hardly saw any lonely ghosts in the city.And for those who died, Bai Xingge also couldn't recruit their souls.
With familiar operating methods, Bai Xingge can almost confirm that this puppet must be related to the masked man.It's just that he was a little curious why this thing flowed into the palace?Does Ji Junyan know the secret here?Could it be that the person the masked man actually wants to deal with is the people in the palace?
If he really stretched his hands into the palace, he would be in serious trouble.
Xie Jing listened quietly to Bai Xingge's talk about the puppet, and saw that his brows were getting deeper and deeper, so he asked aloud, "What's wrong? It's difficult to deal with?"
"It's not difficult." Bai Xingge disliked his ability being questioned the most, so he snorted and said, "This little trick, people who haven't even mastered the art, still want to use the ax in front of me?"
However, if you want to deal with this puppet, you must break the puppet.Moreover, many spells were cast on the puppet, and after those spells were deciphered one by one by him, with the departure of the female spirit, the puppet would eventually shatter.He felt that since this ghost puppet was sent to King An and the others, Ji Junyan even 'threatened' to take good care of it. If it was broken, wouldn't Ji Junyan find a chance for them to punish them?
Sure enough, when Bai Xingge brought up the matter, Wang An and Princess An showed embarrassing expressions, and Princess An obviously liked this puppet very much, and even suspected Bai Xingge's motives, and forgot to hide his identity from others for a while : "Your Majesty's temper is very clear to the Master, are you trying to frame Prince An's Mansion?"
Bai Xingge pursed his lips and did not reply, Murongli was only slightly taken aback after hearing Princess An's words, but did not show any expression of surprise or rejection.Miao Lele was naive, she blinked her eyes and exclaimed: "Brother Bai is the very beautiful Great Master who everyone was discussing a while ago and ran out of the palace!"
Bai Xingge was amused by her directness, but he didn't mind his identity being exposed, anyway, Ji Junyan would find out that he had been to Prince An's Mansion sooner or later.
Before he could respond to Wang An and Princess An's concerns, their conversation was interrupted by a maid who rushed in.
It turned out that something happened to the side concubine.
It seems that Princess An really doesn't like the side concubine, and she has no intention of hiding her feelings in front of others.After hearing the maid say that the side concubine was starting to feel unwell again, the expression on her face instantly became indifferent, and she even frowned in displeasure.
"My lord, hurry up and deal with my sister's affairs. While the master of the state is here, let him take a look at my sister's physical condition. After all, she was the first person in the mansion to get sick. Who knows if she is the one who caused the disease?" The biggest source of farce?"
After Princess An left such a sentence, she took her personal maid back to her room to rest.It was a little embarrassing for Wang An to be so neglected by her, but he knew that he couldn't help her, so he had no choice but to bear it. He turned around and said to Bai Xingge: "The princess is also reasonable. I don't know if Mr. Bai is willing to follow this The king is going this way?"
"Naturally." Bai Xingge responded with a smile, and gave the puppet in the side hall a meaningful look, "Anyway, it's not time to deal with her affairs yet."
In a daze, the phantom seemed to shake after hearing Bai Xingge's words, and made a little noise, even Wang An heard the movement.Ever since he heard Bai Xingge say that there was a female ghost hidden in the puppet, he couldn't help feeling creepy when he looked at her again.He is not so obsessed with this puppet like Princess An.He would hesitate to let Bai Xingge deal with it, mainly because he was worried about Ji Junyan.
He could feel that Ji Junyan's attitude towards him had begun to change over the years, even though he had actually done nothing.But Ji Junyan is a very suspicious person. After staying in Jing'an City for so long, he has long since stayed away from the imperial city. On the contrary, he has a little understanding of what happened in Jianghu.People in the city come and go, he will inevitably meet some people from the Jianghu, Xie Jingshen is one of them.
Wang An has a pure personality, and he doesn't have any ambitions in his heart. He just wants to live the rest of his life in peace and without worrying about food and clothing.It's just that, growing up in the palace since he was a child, and now being confined in his own fief and unable to leave, he also yearns for the rivers and lakes that are often mentioned in the storybook.Therefore, if he meets people from the Jianghu who are in trouble within Jing'an City, as long as they are not some vicious people, he will lend a helping hand.
I don't know if it's because of this that Ji Junyan began to feel bad for him.He was also worried that Bai Xingge's escape from the palace was actually just fake news released by Ji Junyan to deceive people. In fact, the two of them cooperated.Bai Xingge also came here with an impure purpose, and wanted to give Ji Junyan an opportunity to get rid of him, or punish him a little, or warn him.
King An's side concubine is a rather delicate-looking woman, not stunning, but her eyes are particularly attractive.Compared with Concubine An, her figure looks much weaker, because she was plagued by illness, the moment she saw Wang An, she shed tears of grievance, crying pear blossoms with rain.Compared with Concubine An's dignity and reserve, this side concubine obviously knew how to act like a baby, and she said a few words that made Wang An feel distressed.
"My lord, who are these...?" Wang Concubine An was still lying weakly on the bed, and she probably hadn't seen any guests for a long time, but all of them had good looks and extraordinary manners, so she couldn't help but shyly hid hide.
Especially when Bai Xingge came in, he never took his eyes off her. Facing his seductive fox eyes, her cheeks blushed slightly.
Bai Xingge mainly wanted to see her physical condition, but it turned out to be an unexpected harvest.
Concubine An's body is indeed connected with the ghost puppet's death curse. Judging by the degree of contamination by the curse, she may bleed to death from seven orifices in less than three days.But what surprised him even more was that he discovered that there was a causal connection between the side concubine and the puppet, or the female spirit in the puppet.
That connection line is a bit strange, it seems that the origin is quite deep, but they owe each other.
Bai Xingge suddenly became a little uncertain again. Could it be that the female ghost in the ghost puppet came to Prince An's Mansion with a purpose?To seek revenge on Prince An's side concubine?
He took a closer look at Wang An's side concubine, and saw that there was no blood debt on her body.
Bai Xingge was puzzled, but Xie Jingshen who was beside him suddenly gave him a light tug.
"What's the matter? Are you still uncomfortable?" Bai Xingge subconsciously thought that his body was still affected by Yin Qi and felt uncomfortable, and before Xie Jingshen answered, he took the initiative to stretch out his hand, "Then you hold me, I will There is a divine blessing on your body, which can ease your physical discomfort."
Bai Xingge felt a little sorry for Xie Jingshen, after all, he was just an outsider this time, if it wasn't for saving him, for helping him enter Prince An's Mansion, he didn't need to appear here.
Xie Jing stared at his hand in deep silence for a moment, then grabbed it with a very calm expression: "I'm sorry to trouble you."
"No, isn't it just holding hands?" Bai Xingge said indifferently.
Xie Jing pursed her lips deeply, but finally did not interrupt his thoughts.
At first, he just wanted to remind Bai Xingge that the person on the bed was the side concubine An after all, and it seemed a bit uncomfortable for him to stare at her so generously, but he didn't expect that Bai Xingge was still thinking about his physical problems.
In fact, Xie Jingshen no longer felt uncomfortable not long after Bai Xingge approached him, but when he saw Bai Xingge's hand stretched out towards him, he still grabbed it by mistake.
He didn't know why he did it.
"You said that if I want to alleviate the situation on my body, I need to treat you well." Xie Jingshen asked suddenly.
Bai Xingge looked at King An and his side concubine, and responded, "Yes."
Xie Jingshen wanted to know the scope and definition of this good word. He was about to ask in detail when the side concubine, who was still lying in Wang An's arms acting like a spoiled child, suddenly darkened. After pushing Wang An away heavily, she lay down beside the bed and coughed violently. stand up.
This time everyone saw it, and she directly coughed up blood all over the place.The weak man's expression instantly turned to panic, Wang An was also anxious, and turned his head to ask Bai Xingge the solution.
Bai Xingge remained silent, but chose to tell them the truth: "I said just now that there is a female resentful spirit trapped in the puppet in the side hall, including the physical condition of the prince and concubine, which is also disturbed by the spell. only……"
"but?"
He paused, and asked the side concubine An: "I don't know if Concubine Yue has ever known someone who is about five feet three tall, with ink-colored hair and slightly curly hair, looks pretty, and has a crescent moon mark on her neck." Girl?"
After the question, he paid special attention to the expression of the side concubine, her eyes froze, as if she was really lost in thought about his question.Then she didn't know if she had thought of anything, she just covered her slightly aching chest with a pale face, shook her head and replied: "Nothing."
Xie Jingshen noticed that after hearing the description in Bai Xingge's question, a strange color seemed to flash across Murongli's face, and he immediately began to lose consciousness.
Bai Xingge couldn't tell from the expression on Wang Concubine An's face whether she had concealed it, so he could only tell the truth: "To tell the truth, when I checked Concubine Yue's body just now, apart from seeing the female ghost in the moon In addition to the imprint of the spell left on the concubine, I also accidentally discovered that there is a special causal line between you. However, the connection between you is a bit complicated, and I am not completely sure whether it is a relationship between relatives, friends or enemies, so I just This question will be asked."
"I..." Concubine Yue paused for a moment, and said firmly: "No, I, I have lost my mother since I was young, and I have been wandering in the rivers and lakes alone for many years. Only in the palace can I live a comfortable life today. I have never harmed anyone in my life, and it is difficult to even kill a chicken, let alone kill someone."
"I do
