Girl.

For a moment, Shen Yan felt that he might have misheard.

She looked at the ghost doctor who was still holding her hand in bewilderment.

In his cloudy eyes, Shen Yan seemed to see tears flashing.

It's an expression that only comes when you see your loved ones.

"You, who are you?"

Shen Yan didn't deny that the ghost doctor called herself a girl, and she just wanted to figure out the identity of this ghost doctor.

"Yan'er, it's been seventeen years, and my uncle hasn't seen you since you were one year old.

"Your birthday is the second day of August, and on the day you were born, the begonia flowers in the capital are blooming.

"Your father asked me what a name I would give you.

"Uncle said, just one word, women have Yan, flowers compete for beauty, sure enough, when they grow up, they are more delicate."

At this point, the ghost doctor choked up and couldn't go on.

When Shen Yan heard this, his eyes became wet.

She remembered that her father had said that her name was given by his best brother.

But my father also said that Uncle Yuqing was extremely handsome since he was a child, and he has only learned people.

She couldn't overlap the old, blind man in front of her with the man who only appeared in her imagination.

However, everything he said about her was right.

"You, are you my Uncle Yuqing?"

asked softly, Shen Yan was so excited that even his lips trembled.

Hearing this sentence of Uncle Yuqing, the ghost doctor was even more tearful, and he almost couldn't stand it.

"Yan'er, your father, is he okay?

"I've been looking for you for years, and I haven't heard anything from you."

Looking at the deep back that was already hunched, Shen Yan was sad for a while, she used her left hand to support the ghost doctor and let him sit on a bench in this room.

"Uncle, my father, my mother, my brother, sister-in-law, nephew, my family of thirteen, all died last year.

"Before my father was alive, he would always mention you to me, and he said that you were the person he cared about the most in his life.

"I really, don't know, I'll ......" See you here.

Before Shen Yan's words were finished, the ghost doctor just shook Shen Yan's hand.

"Yan'er, what did you say? Senior brother, sister-in-law, all, all dead? ”

"Yes, they are all dead, the Shen family, only I am left."

In the shortest words, Shen Yan told the ghost doctor everything that happened at home a year ago.

However, he still avoided the matter of Shen Yan who came through time.

After Shen Yan finished telling everything.

The sadness on the ghost doctor's face gradually dissipated.

A grim look appeared on his ravine-ravine face.

"I've been hiding for more than ten years, but I still haven't dodged after all! I, Zhang Yuqing, will never let my senior brother's family die so unclear.

"There are some things that should be known to the people of the world.

"Yan'er, uncle still has a lot to say to you, you can stay here today, people outside, I'll help you send it away."

After saying that, the ghost doctor got up from the bench, wiped the tears from his face with his sleeve, pushed the door and walked out.

Shen Yan knew what he was going out for, and she also had a hunch that she was going to figure out everything about her father and what happened more than ten years ago.

On the other side, Mu Jinchen sat outside the house, his face anxious, although Ye Shura didn't show any special emotions on his face, he was also anxious in his heart.

The ghost doctor's technique, Shen Yan's little injury, should have been healed a long time ago.

How can this go in for so long and not come out?

Just when both of them were a little impatient to wait, the ghost doctor came out of it.

"Evil Emperor, the child's hand has already been connected, but because the injury is special, he still needs to stay here for two days to observe.

"So, please two more, go back."

After saying that, he made a gesture to the night Shura, and then stepped aside and stopped talking.

And Shen Yan, who came out of the back room, also heard the words of the ghost doctor, and she actually thought the same way.

Many things can't be explained clearly in a few words, since Uncle Yuqing keeps her here, then it's better to let the prince go back first.

"This ......"

Mu Jinchen couldn't understand it at all, he looked at Shen Yan's arm that had been beaten with a bamboo board, and hurriedly stepped forward.

"What's going on? Are there any other special injuries? Yourself, can't you dispense medicine for yourself? Why stay here? ”

At this moment, Mu Jinchen was really in a hurry, what kind of place was this, how could he rest assured that he would leave Shen Yan here alone.

Shen Yan knew that Mu Jinchen would not agree, but she still had to do it.

"The old gentleman said, my hand, I still have to apply his specially prepared medicine, so ......

"Two days later, two days later, come and pick me up again, I'll be fine."

smiled softly at Mu Jinchen, and after laughing, she lowered her head, although she had wiped away her tears, she still didn't want Mu Jinchen to see her red eyes.

Hearing Shen Yan also say such words, Mu Jinchen frowned and thought in his heart for a moment.

Shen Yan is a doctor, her body, she knows best, since she said so, then she must have a reason to do so.

It's just that he still can't let go of his heart, and in this mixed place, let Shen Yan stay here alone.

Night Shura naturally knew what Mu Jinchen was worried about, so he reached out and patted Mu Jinchen's shoulder.

"Brother Mu, I'll stay here these days.

"Blind Zhang, he has his rules, I also have my rules, you go back first, Shen Yan, I will take care of it."

The implication of Night Shura is that you can rest assured, the person he Night Shura wants to protect, no one dares to move here.

After being silent for a long time, Mu Jinchen finally nodded, indeed, here, his Evil Emperor Night Shura is much better than his prince.

After telling Shen Yan to be careful for a long time, Mu Jinchen followed Ye Shura out of the ghost doctor's house.

This time out, it doesn't matter, when Mu Jinchen looked outside, on the walls and on the ground, on the trees, there were murderous and vicious people with weapons everywhere.

There was a slight stunt under his feet.

No matter how high his martial arts are, in this place, in front of so many masters of the rivers and lakes, he still has no chance of winning at all.

But fortunately, there was a real tiger standing behind him.

"See, in the future, it's really dangerous to think twice about such a thing."

After smiling, he waved his hand at those people outside.

It was as if he had received an order, and in the blink of an eye, the strong murderous aura disappeared.

In the alley outside the ghost doctor's house, there was no one else except Mu Jinchen and Ye Shura.

With a shallow sigh, Mu Jinchen's body was already as tight as steel, and he slowly relaxed.

Under the light of those white lanterns, Mu Jinchen glanced at Ye Shura with a solemn expression.

"If I leave this place alone, one day, you will be able to rebel."

Mu Jinchen's words were very serious, he really felt that this place was like a sharp sword hanging over the capital, maybe when, there would be a beheading operation.

Seeing Mu Jinchen is such a serious expression, Ye Shura laughed out loud.

"I said, Brother Mu, you think too much, although I am in charge of the underworld and have a certain weight in this place, I am not interested in being the emperor.

"Believe it or not, I really don't even want to be this Bird Evil Emperor.

"When I was a teenager, I wanted to dominate the rivers and lakes, and I did it, but now I feel that these false names are very annoying.

"My greatest wish is to one day, sleep with the most beautiful woman, drink the strongest wine, make one or two confidants, play chess and practice swords every day.

"It's a pity, people are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves."

After saying these words, Night Shura just walked forward on his own.

Mu Jinchen was behind him, looking at his back, and suddenly there was an expectation for the future.

Perhaps, for him, the wish that Night Shura said was actually the greatest wish in his heart.

However, sleep with the most beautiful woman, forget it.

He has Shen Yan alone, which is enough.

Thinking of this, I turned my head again, and took one last look, the small room of the ghost doctor.

……

After eating something simply, Shen Yan told the ghost doctor about herself, her experience in the past year, and her disguise as a man.

Naturally, she is now in the official residence of the third grade is a matter of the imperial decree of the Tai Hospital, and she has also told the ghost doctor.

After listening to Shen Yan finish everything, the ghost doctor smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Hey, I know that the Evil Emperor didn't tell me the truth.

"Yan'er, you and Mu Jinchen, do you know about the two of you?"

In fact, this is also what the ghost doctor is most worried about, just now, when he saw Mu Jinchen's identity, he felt that this injured young man must be very important in Mu Jinchen's eyes.

As a result, this young man turned out to be his niece, so the marriage between her and Mu Jinchen ......

"I know, a few days ago, because the princess of Yeguo was forced to marry, the prince took out the holy decree of the first emperor to give marriage.

"However, for the time being, I don't want to tell him who I am."

Speaking of this, Shen Yan sighed.

Sensing the change in her mood, the ghost doctor gently patted Shen Yan's head.

"Child, you two are really a bad fate.

"But, how can I have a feeling that Lord Mu is to you? He doesn't look like a subordinate to you, let alone a confidant, no matter how you feel, it's like a ......"

The ghost doctor didn't know how to ask, although he was blind, but his heart was not blind, from Mu Jinchen's attitude of begging for himself in a low voice, and from the courage he took such a big risk to bring her to this place to find himself, he felt that Mu Jinchen should like Shen Yan very much.

Hearing the ghost doctor say this, Shen Yan's face was already slightly red.

"He, he likes me, he likes me now."

After speaking, he bit his lower lip and looked entangled.

"This, hehehe, the world of you young people, I really don't understand it.

"Obviously they are husband and wife, but as a result, one woman is dressed as a man, and the other is also in love with a man dressed as his daughter-in-law.

"Oh, I really don't know, what kind of expression Mu Jinchen will have when he knows all this!"

When the words landed, he laughed incomprehensibly.

Shen Yan's face was already as red as a tomato.

Yes, the more she hid, the more scared she became, and she couldn't imagine how he would react when he knew she was his wife.

I'm probably going to be angry and want to kill her.

When you lower your eyes, you are worried.

As if sensing Shen Yan's depressed mood, the ghost doctor hurriedly continued:

"Yan'er, actually, it's right that you don't tell him all this now.

"Uncle wants you never to tell him that you are her wife who has not yet been married.

"The royal family, no matter what time it is, is the royal family. The royal people, who defend and always maintain the interests of the royal family. ”

After saying that, the ghost doctor was a little silent.

Shen Yan didn't seem to understand his words.

But before she asked about her father, she still had a big question in her heart.

"Uncle, you, how do you know that I am mine? You don't even look like me......"

"Ah, your father probably never told you about the two of us before, when I was studying medicine in the teacher's school, your father learned pulse diagnosis, and I learned orthopedics.

"Any person, the bones of the face or the bones of the hands, are different, when you were a child, I touched your hands, your face. Although you have grown up, the proportions of your bones have not changed at all.

"So, I recognize you.

After Shen Yan heard what he said, he just felt that it was really amazing.

It is true that the proportions of the bones will not change, but after more than ten years, he can still remove and remember, this is not something that mortals can do.

The uncle and nephew talked for a long time.

They just brought the topic back to the Shen family.

As if he had eased his emotions, the ghost doctor's mind was already calm before he spoke.

The past that was sealed under the dust more than ten years ago was also reopened in his heart.

It was as clear as yesterday, back in his mind.

After inhaling vigorously for a few breaths, he said to Shen Yan in a deep tone:

"Yan'er, what my uncle wants to tell you now is the biggest secret in this world, and it is also the royal family, and the scandal will never be mentioned.

"Eighteen years ago, I was an official in the Tai Hospital with your father, and my senior brother was upright, with a rebellious character like a clear lotus, and in such a complex environment as the palace, he has always maintained his noble character, never afraid of power, and will not compromise with anyone.

However, after a major event happened in the palace, the entire Tai Hospital fell into an unprecedented crisis.

At that time, the crown prince was in the limelight, whether it was from ability, or from connections, or his noble eldest son, he would be the best candidate to inherit the throne.

However, what no one could have imagined was that the prince was actually in his palace, practicing witchcraft and plotting to kill the emperor.

The emperor was furious, but he was reluctant to kill his favorite son with his own hands.

Overnight, the prince's east palace became a prison.

The prince has been complaining all the time, but the evidence is conclusive, and even the most powerful eunuch in his palace has admitted that the prince colluded with a witch doctor outside the palace and planned to murder the emperor.

Later, the abolished prince was imprisoned, and within a month, the prince committed suicide by hitting a wall in the palace, and his heirs were all relegated to a remote and bitter cold place.

Everything that happened seemed to be the prince's own doing, but the senior brother found clues.

After the autopsy of the deposed prince, he believed that the prince should have been poisoned by some kind of poison that could control his mind, otherwise he would not have gone crazy and hit the wall.

However, this idea, in the absence of evidence, is simply untenable.

Who knows, when my senior brother and I were secretly investigating in the palace, the second prince jumped over the bell tower on a full moon night.

The two princes committed suicide one after another, and the emperor was of course furious.

The first emperor ordered the hospital to find out the truth no matter what.

However, a whole year has passed, before and after, from the crown prince, to the eighth prince, a full eight princes, suicide by suicide, violent death by violent death.

Even if he found the best guy in Zhongzhou, he couldn't find out the specific cause of death. ”

Saying this, the ghost doctor finally stopped talking, and he turned his face back, falling into the sadness of memory.

Shen Yan looked at him, but his mouth was open, not knowing what to say.

In her memory, the history of this country seems to have nothing about the eight princes at all.

Today's emperor, Mu Jinming is rightfully inheriting the throne.

It turns out that before this, there are so many things, so if these princes are all killed, doesn't that mean that whoever becomes the emperor is the mastermind?

"Uncle Yuqing, could it be that my father has finally found the murderer who caused all this tragedy?"

"Yes, he found it, and he also told the emperor, but at that time, the emperor was terminally ill and could die at any time.

That night, the senior brother stayed with him in front of the palace all night, and when he came out of the emperor's bedroom, his whole person changed.

"Because of what happened specifically, the senior brother didn't tell me, and what I knew was also half-understood, but in the end, this matter, as if the emperor wanted to deliberately forget, made everyone in the hospital shut up.

It didn't take long for the emperor to die, and Mu Jinming, the ninth prince, inherited the throne naturally.

Those dead princes are like the biggest stain on the palace, and no one is allowed to mention them again.

I still remember that at that time, every night, I could hear crying in the palace.

But as time passed, the cry became less and less, and in the end, there was no more.

Those who should be cleared have been cleared, and those who should be killed have been killed, and in the end, only the Tai Hospital has not done anything.

I was too young at the time, and I was thinking that I wanted to investigate and implement these things, but my senior brother chose to leave Beijing at this juncture.

I watched him abandon his hands, but I couldn't persuade him at all.

In the end, the senior brother took his family as he wished, left the capital and left the country.

And I was left alone in the palace.

In fact, at that time, I should have listened to my senior brother and retired together.

But I never thought that the day before I was going to take up the post of the hospital commander, I was almost poisoned, but fortunately, I was found in time, and my life was saved, but a pair of eyes were never seen again.

At that time, I finally understood why my senior brother had to leave Beijing with his family even if he wanted to harm his own hands.

Because, the black hand behind the scenes will not stop, as long as it is related to this royal secret, they will be killed.

After that, I fled all the way to this place. ”

When the ghost doctor finished the last word.

There was silence in the room.

Shen Yan never thought that his father would be involved in such a complicated battle for succession.

However, what made Shen Yan puzzled was why, more than ten years later, her Shen family stayed well in Jiangnan, and in the end she still did not escape this catastrophe.

If all this is done by the emperor today, then he has already achieved his wish, he is already the Ninety-Five, as long as he does not mention it, then these things will not be mentioned again.

What the hell is it for!

"Yan'er, Uncle has told you all this.

"It's a pity that the senior brother didn't tell me all the truth at that time, and the final judgment he made was only known to him and the first emperor, but I'm sure that the murder of the Shen family is inseparable from this matter.

"Also, you just said that Gu worms have been found in the palace, presumably, the black hand behind the scenes is about to start making waves again."

The black hand behind the scenes, Shen Yan pondered these words carefully.

When she heard Uncle Yuqing talk about those things just now, she automatically substituted the current emperor Mu Jinming into this word.

But this does not stand up to scrutiny.

If it is said that he did the things back then, then today, these things that happened in the palace, he has no reason to commit the crime at all.

The man who made all this must have a bigger conspiracy.

Moreover, the relationship between her and Mu Jinchen has also become complicated because this matter involves the royal family and the royal family.

If one day, she has to stand on the opposite side of the current emperor, what choice will Mu Jinchen make?

With these chaotic emotions, Shen Yan finally fell asleep in a small room that the ghost doctor had cleaned up for her.

Her arm, after a night of recuperation, is not as painful as it is the most.

On the second day of the ghost market, Shen Yan had been analyzing the matter of Gu worms with the ghost doctor.

It wasn't until the evening that the appearance of Night Shura interrupted Shen Yan's research with the ghost doctor.

Seeing that Shen Yan seemed to be familiar with the ghost doctor here, Night Shura was even more surprised.

Usually, this ghost doctor only recognizes money, not people, and doesn't talk to anyone.

Seeing Shen Yan this time, he actually changed his sex.

That's a lot of fun.

However, he didn't come here to trouble the ghost doctor, he wanted to take Shen Yan for a walk around the ghost market before he left tomorrow, after all, this is not a place where you can come if you want to.

Walking on the street paved with blue bricks, Shen Yan's heart was still a little heavy.

Her mind is now full of the suicides of the eight princes eighteen years ago, as well as the appearance of Gu worms in the palace, and she doesn't have the heart to think about where Ye Shura is going to take her.

It wasn't until she was taken into a manor built underground by Night Shura and saw many caged beasts that her mind was pulled back a little.

"Shen Yan, this is the legendary Colosseum in the ghost city, big brother night, take you to see and see!"

"Huh? Oh, good, good. ”

In fact, Shen Yan is really not interested in this, it is cruel and violent.

She walked around inside and saw a lot of burly, muscular men fighting in a cage with lions and tigers, Shen Yan just felt sick for a while.

However, this may be the culture of this place, she is not qualified to tell Night Shura, this is simply inhumane.

Sensing that Shen Yan's interest was not very good, Night Shura only smiled awkwardly.

He actually wanted to take Shen Yan to see those rare beasts, and he didn't think much about anything else.

But just as the two of them were about to leave the Colosseum, in one corner, a dark, humanoid creature curled up on the ground.

Shen Yan looked at it for a long time before he realized that it was a person.

Because under the messy and dirty hair, she saw a pair of eyes, like a clear pool.

However, apart from the fact that those eyes were still alive, this man looked like a dead man on the outside.
