Shi Zhiyi entered the courtyard and came to the lonely room standing there. He had already confirmed that the place where he was a Taoist temple, and this room was like an outlier in this Taoist temple, which seemed out of place with its surroundings.

In the room, there were two lights on, and from the outside, only two pulses could be seen, and nothing else could be seen.

Shi Zhiyi knocked on the door, and a deep middle-aged woman's voice came from inside: "Come in!"

The three words are plain and insipid, but they are full of vicissitudes, but they are not depressed, and there is a faint sense of calmness and arrogance that has been in the top position for a long time.

Shi Zhiyi's mind was still echoing these three words, but his hand had already pushed open the door and stepped in.

What catches your eye is the statue of the Sanqing Patriarch who is more than one person high, and on the desk in front of the statue, a fine smoke rises from an incense burner.

Under the desk, a Taoist aunt who was about forty years old sat cross-legged on the futon, her eyes slightly closed, and her mouth was chanting. However, the moment Shi Zhiyi saw this Dao Gu, there was a monstrous wave in his mind!

This Dao Gu in front of him is the noble concubine Beigong Yan he had seen a few months ago at the dust washing banquet of the Imperial City Xiandu Palace!

In an instant, all the fog hovering in his mind dissipated: on the banquet that day, Emperor Jingchang issued an order to demote the second prince Yu Zhongjing to a commoner, and the noble concubine Beigong Yan was abolished and demoted to a resident of Qixia Mountain, and she was not allowed to leave unless she had a purpose. It turns out that the mountain where I am located is the highest of the few peaks on the Guiyan Great Plain, Qixia Mountain, which is known as "a glance at the wild goose and the curtain of the wild goose"!

Since Beigong Yan is the so-called Taoist master of Fengtiandao, the reason why Fengtiandao secretly investigated and collected all kinds of evidence of the eldest prince's crimes can naturally be explained. When he returned to Kyoto from Wuling that day, Shi Zhiyi, Yu Zhongqian, and Yu Yining had wondered that among the three princes, if the one who was most likely to ascend to the throne was naturally the eldest prince Yu Zhongcheng, but the Beigong concubine, who was determined to seize the throne of the prince, seemed to have nothing to do with the existence of the eldest prince, and locked the first assassination target on Yu Zhongqian, who was the least threatening.

The assassination of the prince is very important, but it can never be repeated. It is absolutely impossible for the Beigong family to assassinate the eldest prince and the third prince, in that case, even an idiot will know that this matter is done by the Beigong family, and the final result of the matter will inevitably not be Yu Zhongjing's ascension to the throne of the prince, but will become a full-scale war between the royal Yu family and the Beigong family.

Therefore, at that time, they had analyzed that the Beigong family or the Beigong concubine herself must have other ways to deal with the eldest prince, but they had no clue about it, and this matter gradually faded with the loss of Beigong Yan's mother and son and the heavy setback of the Beigong family after the banquet of Xiandu Palace.

Now it seems that even though Beigong Yan's mother and son have become like concubines, she still has not given up her efforts to let her son ascend to the throne or the throne. It's just that this time, the target she dealt with changed from the third prince Yu Zhongqian to the eldest prince Yu Zhongcheng.

As long as she has enough evidence in her hand to make Emperor Jingchang completely dead to the eldest prince Yu Zhongcheng, and the third prince Yu Zhongqian has some accidents, then even if the second prince Yu Zhongjing has been deposed as a concubine, it may not be that there will be no comeback! Because by then, Emperor Jingchang may have no choice!

After the matter was revealed, under the aggressive persecution of Emperor Jingchang, the Beigong family was already difficult to protect itself, so naturally they would not have the strength and courage to continue the original plan, and the connection between the Beigong family and Beigong Yan was almost completely severed.

Therefore, what Beigong Yan relies on now is only this idle move she laid out in her early years-Fengtian Dao.

These Taoist servants like Nan Lian should all be the henchmen cultivated by Beigong Yan when she was still a concubine, which can be roughly guessed from their age. However, due to Beigong Yan's loss of power and the interruption of the connection between her and the Beigong family, the resources that Fengtiandao can obtain must be very limited.

Shi Zhiyi's thoughts were racing in his heart, but this was just a matter of lightning. His actions were not affected by these thoughts in his heart in the slightest, but walked straight to a futon in front of Beigong Yan and sat down.

Beigong Yan's originally slightly closed eyes opened, her gaze locked on Shi Zhiyi's grimace mask, and asked, "Are you the ghost face slaughterer who single-handedly wiped out more than fifty gangs in two states?"

"It's true that I destroyed those gangs, but I didn't come up with the name Ghost Face Slaughter. In order to avoid Beigong Yan from recognizing him, Shi Zhiyi deliberately changed his voice and controlled the muscles of his larynx, which was a breeze for a martial artist in the Dawn Realm. At this time, his voice sounded much deeper and rougher, like a young man approaching thirty.

"I am the Daoist of Fengtiandao," Beigong Yan said, "What kind of grudge do you have with the eldest prince Yu Zhongcheng, why do you want those evidence of his crimes?"

"The gangs below him, while looting, took one of my friends away and killed her father. Although Yu Zhongcheng did not do this matter himself, as the person behind these gangs, he could not get out of it anyway. ”

"That friend of yours, but a woman?" asked Beigong Yan.

"Not bad. Her lifelong happiness has almost been ruined by Yu Zhongcheng, and my current strength can't deal with him, so I can only clear the minions under him first. If he goes one step further and becomes the prince of the Great Jin, then it will be even less likely for me to deal with him, so I will do everything possible to prevent him from ascending to the throne of the prince. ”

Beigong Yan couldn't see Shi Zhiyi's expression under the mask, but listening to his gritted teeth, she took it for granted that the female friend who was robbed away was Shi Zhiyi's lover. She didn't have any doubts about Shi Zhiyi's words, and this can explain what Tong Ghost Face Tu has done in the past two months.

Now that Beigong Yan, who is no longer the honor of the noble concubine, wants to deal with the eldest prince, she naturally has to be extra careful to prevent someone from deliberately trying to break into the interior of Fengtian Dao and discover their secrets. However, before Shi Zhiyi arrived, she had analyzed the behavior of the "Ghost Face Slaughter" with Nan Lian and other Taoist attendants, thinking that it could not be a trap for them.

Except that the existence of Fengtian Dao itself is a secret, and even if the Great Prince knows about their existence, he doesn't need this kind of bitter trick of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred to gain their trust. As long as you come to the East Palace of the Dengtang realm to worship, you can leave no chickens and dogs killed by the entire Fengtian Dao.

"I can give you a copy of these incriminating evidences of the Great Prince, but after the matter is done, I want you to kill someone for me. Beigong Yan took out a stack of booklets that had been prepared from behind her and put forward a condition to Shi Zhiyi.
