Chapter 33: Soul Trapping Talisman
Shen Qingyun was already angry in his heart, and he still had to listen to Taifu scold him, he really thought he was his own teacher.
Helplessly, he still had to ask the Taifu, so he had to suppress his temper and said: "I don't know when I lost it, I opened the secret door today and disappeared." β
Lin Yanxi realized that the jade talisman had been hidden in the secret door of the East Palace, but unfortunately she had lived in the East Palace for a long time in her previous life, but she didn't know where the so-called secret door was built.
Even she didn't know where the secret door was, so who stole the jade talisman.
After carefully thinking about the outcome of the loss of the jade talisman in her previous life, in the end, it seems that the jade talisman was recovered from the border city, and I don't know more details, she was an idiot at that time, and she lived in dire straits, and she didn't care about these things at all.
However, long before the jade talisman was recovered, Shen Muzhou had already been tortured in prison and was robbed and faked to death.
"Prince, you are about to succeed the throne, and now that such a mistake has occurred, isn't this giving that position to Shen Muzhou's hands? When will you be able to do things safely, I will tell you thousands of times, for fear that this jade talisman will be remembered by people with hearts. β
Shen Qingyun said impatiently: "The matter has come to this point, no matter how much Taifu says about the jade talisman, he can't come back, so it's better to think of a way together now." β
He listened to Shen Qingyun for a while, but he couldn't hear clearly.
In the end, Shen Qingyun said: "This plan will definitely work, everyone is on the palace banquet, only Shen Muzhou is not present, then the suspicion of losing something to him is the biggest, as long as we bite him to death, unless he can recover the jade talisman, otherwise he can't wash it away by jumping into the Yellow River." β
Even though Lin Yanxi already knew that Shen Muzhou would be framed, when he heard about it with his own ears, he still felt that people's hearts were sinister, and his cold hair stood on end.
The most infuriating thing is the prince, who actually planned such a false accusation and forced her father to do evil together.
What about Shen Muzhou......
His end was predestined from the beginning.
She subconsciously shook her head, shifted her position, lost her mind for a moment, and stepped on a broken brick under her feet, making a sound.
"There's a voice, go over there."
The slightest noise attracted the guards, and she quickly ran away from the same way.
The guards probed around and didn't find anyone, and replied through the door: "Your Highness, rest assured, there is no one else." β
Taifu breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Your Highness, there are some things that you either don't do, or if you want to do them, you have to do them cleanly, and kill the enemy in one move." β

Shen Muzhou hid under the bed, and it wasn't until the people outside were far away that he moved the place to get out of the bed.
Well?
His hand touched a jade brick, and the stone brick loosened into what seemed to be a hidden grid, and he opened the hidden grid, revealing a book inside.
Shen Muzhou sat on the chair with the book and looked through it cursoryly, it was just a book that recorded Jiang's talismans.
Is it necessary to put this book in a dark compartment......
His gaze suddenly touched three familiar wordsβthe Soul Sleeper Talisman.
Dissolved in water, it is colorless and tasteless, and those who eat it will cause them to be stupid, like puppets that have lost their souls.
He thought of Lin Yanxi's stupidity before, could it be .......
---
Shodo Annex.
Lin Yanxi was a little sullen all the way in the sedan chair, obviously she didn't listen to a word of what she said to her father before.
Alas, it seemed to her that she would have to prepare for both.
If the Taifu Mansion finally goes to the old path of the previous life, she must first prepare enough silver to move around, and also choose a place far away from the capital to settle the mansion for easy escape.
Yugu looked sad in the sedan chair, and there were always faint tears in her eyes when she looked at her.
"But what happened to my mother?"
Only then did Yugu react, dipped her tears with a handkerchief, shook her head and said, "Madame, everything is fine, I just want to take the second lady to Zhuangzi to catch up with the old days." β
She nodded, guessing that it should be her mother who also wanted to ease relations with her, and wanted to talk to her alone in Zhuangzi.
Lin Yanxi got out of the carriage and walked to Zhuangzi, and Yugu took her to stop in front of the main courtyard, and waited there, no longer moving forward.
She didn't know what to do, took a few steps forward, and looked back again, Yugu was hiding behind the pillar with tears on her face.
"Zhaozhao, you're here." Jiang Wan sat on a chair, and there were two cups of tea on the square table next to her.
Lin Yanxi stood at the door a little nervously, hesitated and walked into the house, she lowered her head and said nothing, afraid that she would say the wrong thing again and make her mother angry.
She thought for a long time, and asked cautiously, "Is my mother still angry?" β
The tone was tentative mixed with caution, and she was afraid that she would annoy her mother again.
Jiang Wan was slightly stunned, motioned for her to sit down next to her and said, "Come, be next to my mother, my mother won't be angry with Zhaozhao." β
"Really? I thought my mother didn't like me anymore. She thought of the back of her mother's decision to leave a few days ago, and she still felt a little mustard in her heart, and her voice was full of endless sorrow and grievances, which made people feel uncomfortable when she heard it.
She seemed to be flattering, and hurriedly added: "Mother, I think about it, although you don't want to tell me the reason, if I practice talismans will make you angry, then I won't practice." β
Yes, this is what she decided a few days ago.
There are many ways to protect the Taifu Mansion, she believes that even without the power of the talisman, she can reverse the fate of the Taifu Mansion, the most important thing is that her mother doesn't want her to do things, so she won't do it.
Jiang Wan's face was not very good, her eye sockets were deeply sunken, she slowly stretched out her trembling hand to Lin Yanxi's cheek, and hesitated again, wanting to touch but not daring to touch.
Seeing this, Lin Yanxi took the initiative to take Jiang Wan's hand, put her little face up, rubbed Jiang Wan's palm and said, "Mother, let's stop quarreling, I don't want to be separated from my mother, I want to stay with my mother all the time, okay?" β
When she said this, she revealed her dependence and coquettishness on her mother as a daughter.
Jiang Wan's heart throbbed fiercely, her lips were tightly closed, and she tried her best to hide her whimper, she said lovingly: "Silly child, my mother will always have a day to go." β
The sorcerer had already noticed the Taifu Mansion, and she had noticed the spell around the Taifu Mansion several times, and she guessed that someone would find her soon.
The only thing she can do is to use herself to gain a life for Lin Yanxi.
"Zhaozhao, don't blame my mother, I'm all for your good."
Lin Yanxi stared at her mother's eyes overflowing with tears, and didn't understand why her mother looked at her with such sad eyes.
Jiang Wan sorted out her emotions, looked at the tea on the table and sank for a long time without speaking.
She bit her lip, her fingertips dug deep into her flesh, the pain made her more sober, and she made up her mind: "Zhaozhao, my mother's only wish in this life is that you can be safe and smooth, if you can replace your child to endure hardships and illnesses, then the road to the underworld must be full of all kinds of mothers." β
"You have to believe in your mother, no matter what you do, your mother loves you, and your mother is reluctant."
She couldn't stop crying when she said that, and she had to endure the endless pain and despair that would annihilate her, just as she had done ten years ago, there was never a way back and no room for turnback.
"Mother, what's going on?" Lin Yanxi was frightened by her mother's appearance.
She noticed that something was not quite right with everyone today, and it stands to reason that she would follow many people when she travels on weekdays, but today there is only one sedan chair, accompanied by Aunt Yu, and there is no one else.
The people in the Zhuangzi also seem to have been sent clean.
Jiang Wan wiped the tears from her face, afraid that Lin Yanxi would see the clues, so she adjusted her breath and said, "Zhaozhao...... Let's have tea. β
Lin Yanxi looked at the tea, stared at her mother's face in confusion, and picked up the teacup.
The tea should have been brewed for some time, it is not hot, and it is slightly lukewarm.
She lifted the lid of tea and brought it closer to her lips.
Jiang Wan clenched her skirt in pain, and when she saw that she was about to drink tea, she subconsciously stopped Lin Yanxi and said, "Zhaozhao." β
Lin Yanxi paused the movement of his hand and looked at her.
She realized that she was acting too abnormally, and reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said, "Zhaozhao, remember your little words, my mother hopes that you will be trapped in the dark and wait for the light." β
Zhao means light.
As long as you drink this cup of tea with the soul trapping charm, you will become a living dead and fall into darkness forever.
Lin Yanxi hesitated for a moment, but still brought the tea to his lips again.
There was a cacophony from Zhuangzi.
"You can't go in, you can't go in!" Yugu's voice came closer and closer.
The door was kicked open with a thud.
Lin Yanxi was taken aback and swallowed a sip of tea.
Shen Muzhou appeared outside the door, throwing a stone into the house with his fingertips.
The teacup in Lin Yanxi's hand made a crisp cracking sound, and it instantly became several fragments, and the tea flowed to the ground, slowly forming a small golden charm.
Soul Sleeper?
She suddenly understood something, a pair of apricot eyes widened, and she looked at Jiang Wan in disbelief.
"Soul Talisman!" Jiang Wan shouted and got up from her chair and muttered, "The Soul Trapping Talisman is gone, it's gone." β
She rushed to Shen Muzhou angrily and asked him, "You think you are saving her?" The Soul Trap is gone, her life is incomprehensible, you hurt her, you hurt her! β
"Ahh
Lin Yanxi instantly felt a splitting headache, screamed in pain, and sat on the ground with no strength, the soul in his body seemed to be torn in half by someone, and cold sweat flowed down his forehead.
"I don't want to be a fool again, I don't."
"Help me, don't make me a fool again."
Why...... Why did my mother do this to her?
She fell to the ground helplessly and frightened, and even though she only drank a sip of runic water, she still shivered with pain and trembled like chaff.
Shen Muzhou directly pushed Jiang Wan away and held Lin Yanxi in her arms, and under the severe pain, she bit Shen Muzhou's shoulder and made a 'woo' sound.
He hugged her tightly in his arms, the expression on his face was still cold, but there was more distress in his eyes, and this distress was not even noticed by himself.
Jiang Wan went crazy and generally used the broken porcelain pieces to collect the tea on the ground again and brought it to Lin Yanxi and said, "Come, drink this, my mother knows that it hurts, and it won't hurt if you drink it." β
"Everything will be fine."
Lin Yanxi's face was pale, fine beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, she stared at Jiang Wan resentfully, and with the last trace of strength, she knocked over the porcelain piece in her hand.
She grabbed Jiang Wan's hand and asked, "So I've been stupid for many years, all because of the runic water you gave me to drink...... Really? β
