Chapter Ninety-Three: Seriously Ill, Inconvenient to See Guests

"Girl, slow down." As soon as the sky was dark, Chunling chased Qiao Xiya with a pink cloak and ran out of the gate.

After listening to Yuan Laosan's narration, Qiao Xiya couldn't wait to go to Yao Mansion to confront Yao Yushan face to face, if it wasn't really too late, she would definitely face Yao Yushan and ask on the spot.

"Hurry up, hurry up, I don't have the qualifications to go to the court, so I must intercept Uncle Yao on Suzaku Street before going to the court and ask for clarification." Qiao Xiya said, using her hands and feet together, and quickly climbed into the carriage.

"Girl, you ......" This operation made Qiao San stupid.

"Let's go." Seeing Chunling get into the car, Qiao Xiya urged Qiao San to leave quickly.

Suzaku Street in the thin morning light was deserted, and only a few little eunuchs were doing their daily sprinkling. Qiao San parked the carriage aside, and Qiao Xiya helped Chunling jump out of the car. The slightly cool morning breeze made Qiao Xiya feel excited.

The sky slowly brightened, and the people who came to the court also gathered in front of the Suzaku Gate one after another, but until the Suzaku Gate opened, Qiao Xiya didn't see Yao Yushan.

Qiao Xiya, who was helpless, had to go back to Dali Temple, first, to see if Yao Yushan was in Dali Temple, and second, to wait for her father Qiao Qinglin to come back and ask Yao Yushan about the situation.

"Where have you been?" As soon as he stepped into the door of Dali Temple, Mo Haoning's familiar voice came from his ears.

"The lower official greets Lord Hao." Qiao Xiya was stunned for a moment, and bowed respectfully, "Why did the prince come to Dali Temple?" Chunling, go pour tea."

"Don't be busy." Mo Haoning stopped Chunling, "This king is here to invite Master Qiao into the palace to deal with things."

"What's so urgent?" Thinking that the two of them had only come out of the prefect's yamen together the day before, and it had only been a night, so they hurriedly came to find it, and Qiao Xiya had an ominous premonition in her heart.

"Mugendo." Just three words made Qiao Xiya's blood cold. Since throwing the Twelfth Highness Mo Chenyu into the water tank, Qiao Xiya has only cared about chasing the bug, and only now did she remember that there was a prince in Muyuantang who was soaked in the water tank and didn't know whether he was dead or alive.

Qiao Xiya groaned slightly: "Chunling, you stay here and wait for Lord Yao to ......."

"No waiting." Mo Haoning interrupted Qiao Xiya's words.

"No, I must ask him face to face why he connived at his son's murder......" Qiao Xiya looked at Mo Haoning seriously.

"You can't wait." Mo Haoning sighed softly.

"What do you mean by that?" Qiao Xiya heard something in Mo Haoning's words.

"Father said that Lord Yao has not been to the court for more than ten days." qδ

"Sick? It's still ......" Qiao Xiya's voice trembled a little, and finally she didn't say the word "dead".

"Alive." Mo Haoning understood what Qiao Xiya meant, "My father sent someone to visit Yao's Mansion, saying that only the old housekeeper Yao Feng came out to answer the door, saying that Yao Yushan was seriously ill and it was inconvenient to see guests."

Seriously ill, it is inconvenient to see guests. This rather familiar sentence made Qiao Xiya disgusted. She frowned, "Then let's go and see the Twelve Highnesses first."

~~

As soon as she arrived at the entrance of the long street leading to Muyuantang, Qiao Xiya saw Gu Changan with a small group of forbidden troops standing on the long street leading to Muyuantang with three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry.

"Lord! Mistress Joe!" Gu Changan stepped forward and saluted.

"General Gu is early." Qiao Xiya replied. Raising her eyes and seeing that there were many saber forbidden troops on the long street, Qiao Xiya felt bad and couldn't help asking, "Why are there so many forbidden troops?"

"Uh......" Gu Changan groaned, his eyes rolled and his eyes flickered, "Your Majesty said that His Royal Highness the Twelfth is seriously ill and has not recovered, and he is afraid of infecting other palace people, so he will guard here."

Qiao Xiya looked Gu Changan up and down with questioning eyes, and finally fell on Mo Haoning: "General Gu refuses to tell the truth, so please ask the prince to inform the lower officials in person."

"Alas......" Mo Haoning let out a long sigh, "Let's go, go in and have a look, you'll understand."

Qiao Xiya saw that the two of them had strange faces, and knew that she couldn't ask anything, so she stepped into the long street and walked towards Muyuan Hall.

"White lady, make accounts, black boy, make a house...

Before he approached Muyuantang, there was a strange smell of yin and yang, and the sound of nursery rhymes that came and went from time to time drifted into Qiao Xiya's ears.

Qiao Xiya was stunned for a moment, and her footsteps stopped. She tried her best to control her trembling body and looked at Mo Haoning, who was tightly clasped with thick eyebrows on the side.

"Did you hear that?" Mo Haoning's eyes were full of distress, if it wasn't for the fact that there was no way, he wouldn't let Qiao Xiya suffer this fright again.

"Has Your Highness always been like this?" Qiao Xiya's palms were faintly sweating.

"I also went back to the palace yesterday to listen to my father, according to the little eunuch and the forbidden army who were guarding outside the Muyuan Hall, it probably started the afternoon of the second day after we chased the worms out of the palace."

"What did the little eunuch in Muyuan Hall say?" Mo Haoning didn't mention the little eunuch who served Mo Chenyu in Muyuan Hall, which made Qiao Xiya feel a little strange.

"The two little eunuchs who stayed inside to serve the twelve brothers, one died, and the other went crazy." Mo Haoning's words shocked Qiao Xiya's heart.

"Let's see." Qiao Xiya suppressed the fear in her heart and walked towards Muyuan Hall.

The closer you get to Muyuantang, the louder the weird nursery rhyme becomes. Qiao Xiya's heart tightened more and more.

Looking around, there are two red palace lamps on both sides of the palace gate of Muyuantang, and from a distance, Muyuantang is like a huge monster, with a pair of blood-colored eyes, quietly dormant, quietly watching the prey that is getting closer and closer. Outside the palace walls of Muyuan Hall, there stood a circle of little eunuchs and saber forbidden soldiers. Seeing Mo Haoning, Qiao Xiya and others approaching, everyone saluted one after another.

"Open." With Mo Haoning's order, the heavy vermilion lacquer palace door of Muyuan Hall was slowly pushed open. It's like opening the door to hell.

Qiao Xiya took a deep breath, glanced at Mo Haoning, and the two stepped into Muyuan Hall.

The Muyuan Hall was empty, there was no one, and the stone benches in the courtyard were messily overturned.

"White Lady, make an account, Black Son, make a house, blue gauze, silver gauze cover, heaven and earth upside down, yin and yang upside down, Hades is in the world, run quickly."

The weird nursery rhyme floated out of the room and clearly entered Qiao Xiya's ears, making her feel excited.

"Miss Qiao......" Mo Haoning looked at Qiao Xiya with some concern.

"Don't worry." Qiao Xiya took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the fear in her heart, and followed the voice to find it.

"Squeak!" Qiao Xiya pushed open the half-hidden door, and a huge water tank came into view. Mo Chenyu had a cloaked hair, his eyes were empty, the corners of his mouth were weirdly raised, there seemed to be a hint of ridicule, the skin on his face was extremely white and unnatural, without half a bit of blood, and his neck was twisted behind his back in a strange posture, "looking" at Qiao Xiya at the door.
