Chapter 32: The Jade Talisman is Lost
In the next moment, she cried even more, and said slurredly: "I knew that you wanted to destroy my Taifu Mansion." ”
Shen Muzhou had an embarrassed expression on his face and whispered, "With you, I won't embarrass Taifu's mansion." ”
She asked, "Really?" ”
He nodded.
Lin Yanxi stared at him again with a pair of apricot eyes, always feeling that he would not let go of her father so easily, after all, her father had done so many things that harmed him.
She held out her little finger and said, "Come, seal." ”
Shen Muzhou stared at her watery eyes, and there were still tears on her white face.
"Hurry up!" She urged.
"Is it necessary?"
Although he was disdainful, he still learned her gestures to pose well, Lin Yanxi hooked his little finger with his little finger, shook it a few times, and then used his thumb to print.
"Of course, if you don't make a note, you're cheap. Then I said it, don't embarrass my father and Taifu Mansion in the future. ”
He bowed his head again in the darkness, "Hmm. ”
"Xiaoliu found twin concentric flowers in the western suburbs."
Lin Yanxi's expression was stunned, and he really let him find it, but after the palace banquet tomorrow, he will be imprisoned because of the loss of the jade talisman and the injustice.
"Then I'll help you unlock the spell seal before entering the palace tomorrow."
She thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "After unlocking it, will you return the soul ring to me, and there will be no more relations between us." ”
Shen Muzhou's eyes darkened, perhaps because of Qin Tianjian's prophecy at first, he really wanted to threaten her with a soul ring to save himself.
Now he didn't know what he thought, and he didn't know what his intentions were for Lin Yanxi, the only thing that was certain was that he never thought of threatening her with a soul ring to do anything she didn't want to do.
Lin Yanxi felt that he had said the wrong thing, so he didn't ask this question further.

Taifu Mansion, Wanxin Pavilion.
"Ma'am, ma'am, you're finally awake."
Jiang Wan's face was pale, her brows were tightly locked, she opened her eyes slightly and asked, "What time is it?" ”
Yugu replied: "Madam, just now, the doctor has prescribed medicine for you, you can drink some first." ”
After that, Yu Gu brought the brown-yellow medicinal soup to Jiang Wan, and a bitter taste rushed into her nose.
Jiang Wan shook her head, she knew the condition of her body, and her time was short.
"Yugu, you go...... Bring the white jade box. ”
"Madame...... By no means, please don't do this to the second miss. Yugu knelt on the ground with a 'plop', and the medicine bowl she was holding was unstable for a while, and most of her hands were red when she spilled out.
The white jade box contained a soul trapping talisman.
The interpreter calculated Lin Yanxi's Heavenly Star Destiny before she was born, and Jiang Wan asked Jiang Qi for two soul talismans in order to avoid her from disaster.
This Soul Trapping Talisman dissolves in water, and simply taking it will cause it to be stupid.
Yugu knelt on the ground and pleaded: "The second miss was raised by me, what a clever girl she was when she was a child, this stupidity is ten years, she knows everything in these ten years, but she can't say anything." ”
"She was calculated by the people in the second room, bullied by the noble girls in the capital, and despised by the people of Nanmin, these are enough to receive once, please Mrs. Don't let the second lady suffer these crimes again."
"The Soul Trapping Talisman can only be used once, and the second time it is used on the same person, then it is no longer as simple as being stupid, it will become a living dead, can Madam really bear to let the second lady become a shell that can only breathe?"
Jiang Wan's eyes were red, and her eyes rolled and said, "Do you think I don't feel pain in my heart?" Using the Soul Trapping Curse on her twice means that I have experienced two pains, but compared to the pain of her bringing extinction to the moon in the future, she herself suffered from the Heavenly Tribulation, I would rather she be a living dead, and I will take care of her for the rest of her life to atone for her sins. ”
"Besides, the spell master has been looking for a talisman, if Lin Yanxi is allowed to fall into their hands, it will be better to live than to die."
"Give me the Soul Talisman."
Yu Gu knew that she couldn't resist Jiang Wan, so she got up and went to get the white jade box.
Jiang Wan's hand trembled a little, touched the white jade box and said, "This matter can't be carried out in the Taifu Mansion, you prepare the carriage and take Zhaozhao to Zhuangzi." I'll go over and get everything ready. ”
When the Soul Trapping Talisman is used, it cannot be interrupted by anyone, and no one can be let know that Lin Yanxi is using the Soul Trapping Talisman.
At the same time, a dark figure swept over Jiang Wan's window, not attracting the attention of the people in the house.
A few days ago, the emperor asked Shen Muzhou to go to the palace for a private meeting, saying that there was a secret line to report the hidden capital defense map in the Taifu Mansion.
This is a taboo for a high-ranking civil minister.
The emperor has always been suspicious, and he will not let go of even the slightest hint of trouble, and sent Shen Muzhou to investigate the truth.
This is also one of the reasons why Shen Muzhou secretly sneaked into Lin Yanxi's room for the night a few days ago, and after Lin Yanxi was asleep, he would investigate in the Taifu Mansion before leaving.
He found that the guards in the mansion were lax, no different from ordinary dignitaries and dignitaries, only some subordinates who were a little good at fist and foot kung fu patrolled at night, except for Jiang Wan, the mother of the Taifu Mansion, there was something abnormal in the courtyard.
Her courtyard seems to be guarded by a few subordinates, but in fact, these people are light-footed, with a scimitar hidden at their waists, and their eyes are vigilant.
Shen Muzhou took advantage of the shift change today to sneak into Jiang Wan's courtyard and heard their conversation.
However, because they spoke in very small voices, he could only hear intermittently some soul sleepy talismans, Zhuangzi and the like.
He couldn't hear it clearly, and after making sure that what was being talked about had nothing to do with the defense map, he left, intending to leave over the back wall.
"It's been tossing and turning for several mornings in a row."
"yes. Two days ago, I had to send the second lady away, that is, I got up early in the morning to work, and today I have to go to Zhuangzi again, so I don't have to sleep every day. ”
When Shen Muzhou was about to slip out of the house from the back wall, he heard the sound of footsteps and the complaining conversations of the subordinates from the left and right sides from a distance, and he was caught in the middle and couldn't retreat with his whole body.
In a hurry, he could only flash into Lin Yanxi's courtyard again.
Lin Yanxi closed her eyes and was still asleep, her skin was as delicate as warm jade, soft and greasy, and her cherry-red lips moved unconsciously, and then gently outlined a well-behaved and supple smile.
"Mother...... You're not mad at me......"
Shen Muzhou leaned over to listen to her dreams, and when he got close to her, he could smell the sweet smell of milk on her.
"I won't make my mother angry again."
It turned out to be a dream about her mother, and the morning sun brushed on her side face, casting a layer of golden light and shadow for her, lining the girl in the dream incomparably beautifully.
"Miss. Miss! There was a knock at the door.
Lin Yanxi woke up from her dream and saw Shen Muzhou's face infinitely enlarged in front of her eyes, and the two were so close that they were about to stick together, and she was about to scream when she opened her mouth.
Shen Muzhou's eyes were quick, he covered her mouth and blocked back the screams.
She blinked, and then remembered that Shen Muzhou sneaked into her room again yesterday, and he didn't leave, and the strange thing was that he would leave early in the past, so that the people in the mansion would not find out.
"Why haven't you left yet?"
Shen Muzhou looked at the corners of his lips and flattened the corners of his lips, covered the tips of his ears a little crimson, and said, "I'm leaving." ”
Heading to go?
She glanced at him, who would believe it? I'm about to leave and I'm so close to myself!
In the next moment, she seemed to think of something and hurriedly wrapped the brocade quilt, her fair skin was dyed red, and she stammered a little and asked, "You don't want to ...... Miss Ben Plotting against it. ”
She said the last few words very quietly, and her words were slurred, like a mosquito humming.
Shen Muzhou stared at her sideways, and said for a while: "Don't be delusional. ”
Lin Yanxi is like a fried kitten, trying to catch his unparalleled seductive skin.
What do you call her wishful thinking?!
"Miss, Miss, no!" Sugar fried anxiously wanted to push the door in, but the door did not push.
Lin Yanxi's cold hair stood upright, and her heart rose to her throat, but fortunately, she plugged in the door pin from the inside when she fell asleep yesterday.
She got up from the bed, pulled Shen Muzhou, and made a silent gesture to him.
"Wait, wait, I'm changing."
"Let's go, through the back window." She pulled Shen Muzhou to the back window.
Shen Muzhou looked at her panicked, didn't move, and said arrogantly: "What are you afraid of?" Was it found that there is a king on top? ”
Aren't you afraid?!
She smiled helplessly: "Yes, yes, the Nine Princes are wise and martial, so naturally they are not afraid." But! It's better for the Nine Princes to hide first, I'm all thinking about you, if someone finds you in my boudoir, I'm afraid that the reputation of the Nine Princes will be ruined. ”
As she spoke, she pressed Shen Muzhou's head and was about to stuff him into the cabinet, and after tossing twice, Shen Muzhou's height was too tall to squeeze into the cabinet at all.
"Under the bed."
Shen Muzhou looked at the bed in the direction of her finger, and he shook his head without hesitation.
"I'm ...... Dignified"
Lin Yanxi didn't have time to listen to his nonsense anymore, and before he finished speaking, he forcibly stuffed him into the bed.
"Shhhh
She opened the door, and the sugar fried and chestnuts were waiting outside the door in a hurry.
Sugar fried in surprise: "Miss, aren't you changing clothes?" ”
Lin Yanxi was embarrassed to look at the plain clothes on his body, scratched his head and said, "Yes, oops, what the hell is going on?" ”
"Miss, Madame has arranged for you to go to Zhuangzi immediately, so please freshen up and go over. Yugu has prepared the carriage outside the mansion gate. ”
As he spoke, he was about to pull Lin Yanxi to the house to change clothes.
She hurriedly said, "I can't go back to the house to change!" ”
After that, she quickly turned around and closed the door, looked at everyone with a weak heart, and made an excuse.
"Go, go to the study to change clothes, I just want to go to the study to get something."
As she spoke, she walked towards the study with the fried sugar and chestnuts, and when she passed by Lin Ze's courtyard, she saw two servants dressed as subordinates standing outside the door.
felt that these two people were a little familiar, so she looked at them twice, and the two looked at Lin Yanxi with a wary look and saluted her.
Are these two servants in the house?
!!!
Something suddenly occurred to her, they were the prince's guards, and although they had changed into the clothes of their subordinates, she remembered that when she was locked up in the prince's room and beaten to death, it was these two people who took turns bringing her some rancid meals.
How could the prince's personal guards be in the Taifu Mansion, could it be that the prince is also there?
"Well, I'll go to the toilet, you go to the study and wait for me first."
She made an excuse and slipped to the small courtyard of Lin Ze's study, with her understanding of the Taifu Mansion, she passed through the side courtyard, and there was just a small door that could lead to the courtyard of the study.
Lin Yanxi quietly went around to the window root behind the study and lowered it, squatting there, holding his breath, his ears against the wall, eavesdropping on the news inside.
"What jade talisman is missing? When did this happen? You're only talking about it now? Taifu said.
