Chu Chen Kee

Concubine Bai was treated coldly, and the third prince she gave birth to was also not loved by the emperor. She was sent out of the palace at the age of seven, and opened a mansion outside the palace without the title of prince. Naturally, the hardships of life outside the palace need not be repeated.

Fortunately, although the territory of the Third Prince's Mansion is a bit remote, the environment is elegant and quiet. There is an artificial lake in front of the yard, and a pavilion in the middle of the lake is built. It is covered with snow at this time, and the evergreen pines and bamboos on the shore are not far away. Interesting.

There are not many people serving in the Third Prince's Mansion, one maid in charge and one eunuch in charge, each of them is in charge of two palace servants, and there is also a maid sent by the concubine Bai to serve the prince closely, up and down The number of people under the table plus Li Yuchen, the master, can be counted with two palms.

Bai Yi followed him into the Prince's Mansion, except for an elderly nanny who led him to find a room for him, no one paid any attention to him.

Bai Yi glanced at the door of the room, and there were only the simplest beds, a table and a chair inside.He didn't look at the anxious expression of the old servant, but just smiled gently and said, "Thank you."

It seems that my nephew hates me even more than I imagined.

However, Bai Yi didn't like Li Yuchen very much when he first saw him. The child's eyes dodged, and he was unsteady at first glance, and he was taught badly in this palace. He acted willfully and selfishly.

Bai Yi has a headache. How should he arrange for his sister to entrust such a child to him?

Bai Yi's own talent is extremely high, and his spirituality is also good.He has the body of a heavenly spirit that is unique in a million, the most suitable physique for cultivating immortals, and the advantages of cultivation are unmatched by others.

Originally, his master was unwilling to take him in. It was his father who insisted on bringing him to see him, so that person reluctantly agreed to see him.Who would have thought that after meeting him for the first time, his master would ask him to worship under his master immediately as if he had found a treasure.

And it only took him seven short years from Qi training to the late stage of foundation establishment, and there was a faint tendency to form alchemy.

Forming a golden elixir at the age of 14, in the current cultivation world, is definitely an achievement that makes those cultivating Taoists jealous to the point of instability.

Looking back thousands of years, there are only a few people who can have such a cultivation level at the age of 20.And being able to achieve Bai Yi's achievement is even more unique!

Cultivators, who have reached the foundation-building stage, will faintly tend to the way of heaven, and they can understand everyone's fate somewhat,

But he couldn't see through the fate of the people who were closely related to him. Li Yuchen was related to him by blood, which made it even more difficult.

After hesitating for a while, Bai Yi closed his eyes slightly, pinched the seal with his hand, and tried to calculate a hexagram by chanting Fajue.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes suddenly, a cold light flashed in them, and his complexion became extremely ugly.

Sitting there for a while, Bai Yi pushed open the window, taking advantage of the night outside the window, swimming out of the window like a spirit fish, his figure quickly disappeared into the vast night. "

In an instant, Bai Yi appeared outside the red palace walls.

The imperial city in front of him was shrouded in a radiant enchantment. Although outsiders could not distinguish it, those who cultivated Tao could see it at a glance.

However, the strength of the person who set up the barrier was only about equal to that of Bai Yi. Bai Yi glanced at the guards patrolling not far away, followed behind them, and entered the palace gate the moment they passed through the barrier.

The forbidden army only felt a gust of wind blowing around them, and they couldn't help but change their faces, one of them said: "Where did this ghost wind come from? It seems that they have to ask the master of the state for a Taoist talisman!

Someone next to him laughed and said: "It's up to you? You don't have wealth that rivals the country, and you don't have the power to influence the government and the people. Why should the master of the country pay attention to you?"

The man was about to fight back when he was stopped by the captain: "Where do you have the guts to joke like this when you are on patrol?"

They were all selected from the descendants of aristocratic families, all of them were of superior character, and joined the imperial army, they would not worry about where they would go after two or three years, so they were all proud and proud.

Therefore, the coaches that the emperor recruited to guard these princes and brothers were all powerful characters, and when they heard the coaches yelling at them, they immediately fell silent.

Over there, Bai Yi walked into Concubine Bai's bedroom following his memory within a few breaths.

As he expected, Concubine Bai did not fall asleep at the moment, but leaned against the bed, looking at the moonlight outside the window.Perhaps because of taking the elixir, her complexion looks much better now than when she first saw her in the daytime.

A court lady waiting for orders in the outer hall was dodging, leaning sleepily on the door and fell asleep, and there was no one else in the hall for a while.

"Sister." Bai Yi saw Concubine Bai standing in front of the window through the moonlight.She was wearing a thick cloak and looking out the window, as if she was waiting for him.

"Come here, let my sister take a good look at you." Concubine Bai waved at him, a weak smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and she didn't ask how he entered the palace.

Bai Yi hesitated, but still walked over.

Concubine Bai held his hand tightly, fearing that if she let go, her younger brother would disappear. After looking at it for a long time, she finally couldn't hold back the tears from the corners of her eyes: "That's great, you've grown up too."

Bai Yi looked at her and let her hold his hand until his knuckles turned white: "You knew I would come?"

"You should know, right?" Concubine Bai looked at him with a wry smile, "That child is not my Chen'er. During the day, those palace servants and secret agents sent by the empress are close by, how can I be here?" Talk about it in front of them?"

Bai Yi remained silent. He accidentally calculated the fate of that Li Yuchen. After being shocked, he pushed forward and found that he was just a child of an inconspicuous princess in the Li family clan. Li Yuchen was roughly similar, and because his face was similar to Li Yuchen, he was pretended to be Li Yuchen and raised in the Prince's Mansion.

"Then where is the real Li Yuchen?" Bai Yi looked at Concubine Bai.

Concubine Bai showed a sad expression: "I don't know either. I secretly sent people to inquire, but they couldn't find out. My Chen'er should have been replaced two years ago, and it was at that time that Chen'er was born. When the palace opened the mansion. Although I don’t know who is in charge, I probably can’t escape the empress and the national teacher’s group.”

Bai Yi frowned tightly. If it was said that he changed two years ago, then it is debatable whether the real Li Yuchen is still alive.

"Although I don't know where Chen'er is, I believe he is still alive! I had a dream a few days ago, and dreamed that Chen'er was covered in blood and asked me for help. He told me that he was in pain and begged me to save him!" Concubine Bai couldn't stop sobbing when she said this, and couldn't go on.

The way the helpless child curled up and called out to her in the dream, she would never forget until she died.Every time she thinks about this time, the pain of being a mother makes her sleepless day and night.

Seeing this, Bai Yi tightly grasped his palm. Although that child was only met once, he was still his relative after all.

"Yi'er, you are the only relative I have now, please, save my child..." Concubine Bai's face was miserable, and the corners of her eyes were red.Like any woman, once she becomes a mother, her child becomes a weakness that she will never be able to let go of.

Even if she was as tough as the concubine Bai in the past, it is the same.For the sake of her child, she didn't hesitate to be controlled by the queen, even if she knew that the daily soup was poisonous, she would drink it without blinking.

Bai Yi's hand stopped, and still lightly rested on Bai Concubine's shoulder: "...don't be sad, I will rescue him."

When they returned to the Prince's Mansion, the moon had already set in the sky.

He could feel the abnormality in the palace, and there must be some practitioners lurking in the palace.But those two breaths are the righteousness of heaven and earth, not evil, so it can be seen that they are not evil figures.

But Taoism and Buddhism all have precepts. Those who practice do not enter the world and do not care about secular affairs. Who dares to violate the precepts and sneak into the secular world, and even meddle in the emperor's family affairs?

Moreover, at the feet of the emperor, where can they hide people?

Bai Yi frowned tightly, and the tear-stained face of Concubine Bai appeared in front of her eyes again, and her heart gradually became heavy.

There will be special feelings and connections between mother and child. If Concubine Bai dreamed that Li Yuchen was covered in blood, then Li Yuchen's real situation would not be much better.

After thinking about it, Bai Yi closed his eyes for a moment, but found that he couldn't concentrate no matter what, and couldn't do the homework that he had insisted on practicing at night for seven years.

Recently, he felt that the aura in the dantian was gradually liquefied, and the tendency of forming alchemy became more and more obvious, but right now was not a good time to form alchemy.

Bai Yi forced himself to meditate for a while, refined the received aura, stored it in his dantian, and breathed it out for another week, feeling refreshed before getting up to move around.

He took out an inconspicuous three-foot long sword from the meson kit he carried with him, and began to practice in the yard.

This set of swordsmanship is the most basic swordsmanship of his master's school. Although it is not difficult, it consumes a lot of energy. After a set of swordsmanship, sweat is faintly seeped on his forehead.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps at the gate of the yard.

Bai Yi held the sword and turned his head. He was tall and erect, with a handsome demeanor as tall and straight as a bamboo.

A handsome maid in a green dress saw her, her face flushed immediately, and she said nonchalantly, "Master Bai, please have breakfast."

She was holding a lunch box in her hand, and when she saw Bai Yi nodding slightly, she blushed and put the breakfast in her hand on the table, bowed her head shyly and backed away.

When the footsteps were far away, Bai Yi slowly shook his sleeves, and lifted the lid covering the rice bowl.

There is a small bowl of jasper japonica rice porridge in it, and two or three dishes of side dishes.

Bai Yi used the silver spoon in the bowl to stir the jasper japonica rice porridge in the bowl, but the spoon didn't change color.

He frowned slightly, took some japonica rice porridge with a spoon and smelled it, a cold light flashed across his beautiful phoenix eyes.

Bai Yi put down the bowls and chopsticks unhurriedly, and found Li Yuchen's room following the memory of leaving the house last night.

At this time, Li Yuchen had already woken up.

Although the emperor was obsessed with alchemy and longevity, he did not ignore the teachings of the princes, and got up to study every morning.Although this 'Li Yuchen' is stubborn, he dare not sleep for a long time.

As soon as Bai Yi entered the door, he saw that the white jade bowl on the table in Li Yuchen's room was empty, and there were some small dishes left in the bowls and dishes next to him.

"What are you doing here?" Li Yuchen was holding a book and reading it, Bai Yi glanced at the cover, it was just a book of market stories.He obviously didn't expect Bai Yi to enter his room, his expression was slightly surprised, and then became impatient.

"Have you finished eating?" Bai Yi looked at him and asked lightly.

Li Yuchen paused for a moment, and glanced at the door of the room. The two eunuchs outside the door obviously looked a little nervous. He looked back at Bai Yi and said, "Didn't you see everything? It's over. Are you full?"

Bai Yi glanced at the eunuch at the door, and said slowly: "There is poison in that bowl of rice."

As soon as Li Yuchen said this, before Li Yuchen could speak, he heard the eunuch on duty at the door plop and knelt down: "Young Master Bai, you don't dare to talk nonsense, the chefs in this house are all sent by the empress, and the silver needle has not changed color. , how could it be poisonous? It’s fine that the young master is not familiar with the affairs of this palace, but be careful that the misfortune comes out of your mouth!”

Li Yuchen also frowned and looked at Bai Yi, "You really don't know what to do and talk nonsense. The cooks in my house are all chosen by the queen herself. How dare you doubt the mother of the country?"

Bai Yi said, "Don't dare."

"You all go down." 'Li Yuchen' gritted his teeth.

The eunuchs at the door looked at each other and did not dare to move.

"I tell you to get out!" 'Li Yuchen' got angry, threw the pen and ink on the desk, and smashed it on the head of an eunuch, and the man was bleeding immediately.Seeing that the situation was not good, the two eunuchs bowed their heads and retreated.

After confirming that there was no one nearby, Li Yuchen looked back at Bai Yi with a nervous expression: "What kind of poison is in the porridge? Why can't the silver needle detect it?"

It seems that this fake Li Yuchen is not stupid either.

Bai Yi looked at him expressionlessly: "It's a kind of erysipelas, which can't be tested with ordinary silver needles. But this kind of erysipelas is not very toxic, and it can only take people's lives by accumulating over time, and it is difficult to detect when it occurs, just like after the spring breeze passes. Leave no trace, so it is called Chunfengdu."

"Chunfengdu? Uncle, you won't leave me alone, right?" Li Yuchen looked at Bai Yi in disbelief, and suddenly grabbed the corner of Bai Yi's clothes.

Bai Yi's eyes moved, this kid must know something!

He bent down and stared closely at 'Li Yuchen' eyes: "You are not the third prince, tell me, what do you know?"

'Li Yuchen' complexion suddenly turned pale, he stared blankly at Bai Yi for a moment, then suddenly changed his expression, and screamed: "You... what are you talking nonsense? Be careful... Be careful, I'll call my father to chop about you!"

"If the emperor knows that you are a fake? Do you think he will kill you or me?" Bai Yi sneered.

'Li Yuchen' was a child after all, couldn't help Bai Yi's bluff, and was intimidated by Bai Yi's superb Taoism, and immediately cried and explained the whole story.

It turned out that he was the grandson of Princess Changhe, his name was Chen Le, and his style name was Zi'an. He was barely related to the royal family, but he only had a false name.

When he was five years old, he was brought into the palace by a group of Taoist priests and taught him to pretend to be the Seventh Prince and live outside the palace.

Although the parents were unwilling, they couldn't resist the despicable power of the superior, so they had no choice but to grit their teeth and agree.

Because of the seldom contact with outsiders on weekdays, and the fact that the Taoist priests played tricks, no one discovered the fact that the real dragon son was replaced by a fake emperor's grandson after two years.

Concubine Bai discovered this from the very beginning, how could she not recognize her own child?

But the other party was obstructing and disturbing, but she was not afraid of being discovered by her lost concubine.

Concubine Bai also understands that she is out of power, and she is plagued by strange illnesses on weekdays, and it is rare to see the Holy Majesty, let alone defeat a hot opponent.He had no choice but to pretend to be a false prince, to recognize the fake prince as his own son, and secretly sent someone to check on Li Yuchen's whereabouts.

But the people she sent either disappeared for no reason or encountered unexpected disasters, so Concubine Bai had no choice but to send someone to the mountain to invite Bai Yi into the palace.

Although she wasn't there when Bai Yi was taken away by an expert, she had heard about it, so she might be able to help.

"Very good, do you still remember what the Taoist priest who brought you into the palace looked like?" Bai Yi asked.

Chen Le nodded and was about to speak when suddenly he rolled his eyes and fainted without warning.

Bai Yi's complexion changed, he leaned over and put his fingers under Chen Le's nose, but luckily he just passed out.

He checked Chen Le's mind with his spiritual sense, and immediately discovered that someone had cast a forbidden spell in this child's mind.

Probably once Chen Le wanted to confide something to the outside world, he would touch the taboo and make him pass out.However, Bai Yi's spells were slightly better than that of the taboo, otherwise he would definitely be discovered by the other party if he probed Chen Le's sea of ​​consciousness like this.

Bai Yi frowned slightly, put the child on the bed, made a gesture with his left hand, and a little fluorescent light fell between the child's eyebrows.

This forbidden technique is not advanced but somewhat complicated. Bai Yi carefully pulled out the opponent's consciousness planted in the depths of Chen Le's sea of ​​consciousness little by little, and then wrapped the blue consciousness with a layer of true energy.

The group of consciousness struggled uncontrollably, as if trying to break free.Bai Yi's finger parted, and the consciousness that wrapped it immediately fled away, fleeing outside the city.

Bai Yi carefully placed Chen Le, and then released his spiritual consciousness to follow. He is now in the late stage of foundation establishment, and his spiritual consciousness can cover a radius of ten miles. As long as it is not too far away, he can easily sense it.

The spirit fled to the north in a hurry, Bai Yi followed it unhurriedly, and found that it finally disappeared under a high mountain in the north.

There is an enchantment near that mountain peak, and it is a highly defensive Big Dipper formation. This formation is obviously set up by a master. People below the Jindan stage cannot break through by force. The people who set up the formation are likely to be Jindanqi or even Is the above tall people.

If Bai Yi's master was here, this formation would be worthless at all, but for the current Bai Yi, it is a natural barrier that is difficult to break through.

His consciousness circled around the area before returning.
