Chapter 235: Obsession and Illusion
As soon as Shen Lingxi saw that Yun Hongshan's soul was still there, he was relieved.
Many confessions are ambiguous, as long as you ask Yun Hongshan, you will understand clearly.
But before thatβ
"Do you want to put your head on before you talk to me?" Shen Lingxi reminded in time.
She, the "former imperial uncle", has always paid the most attention to grooming.
After she reminded him like this, Yun Hongshan realized that something seemed to be quite wrong with him.
He lowered his head (right, to be exact) and looked at it, and roared, "Bold! Who dares to harm this king like this! β
Shen Lingxi looked at him with a smile, "Think about it again?" β
Yun Hongshan's eyebrows frowned, as if he recalled carefully, and finally remembered something, and scolded angrily: "Xiao's poisonous woman murdered the life of this king, and Yun Chao, the rebel son destroyed the body of this king, and this king will never forgive them!" β
As he spoke, he flew up in a rage.
From beginning to end, he didn't look at Xie Zhangting next to him.
If Xie Zhangting still had a trace of doubts about Shen Lingxi's words.
Seeing Yun Hongshan's reaction, Xie Zhangting was completely convinced.
When she and Yun Hongshan were in Tongque Garden, even if she frowned, Yun Hongshan would take the trouble to make him happy.
He had never recognized her when she stood in front of him like this.
Shen Lingxi looked at her heartbroken and sad appearance, and sighed lightly: "I'll go up and take a look, Aunt Lao is staying here, if there are still dead souls in these porcelain bottles, please bring them together to find me." β
When Xie Zhangting heard this, she wiped her tears and nodded her head.
Shen Lingxi walked up the stairs, walked into the room, and saw the white soul shadow of Yunhong Mountain through the open window lattice, which disappeared from sight.
She didn't have the slightest intention of chasing it.
When Yun Hongshan found Princess Xiao in a rage and found that he couldn't help the other party at all, he would run back and ask her for help.
That's when she'll make a move.
Shen Lingxi looked around and was surprised to find that Mu Huai'an, who had just left a word to say that Mu Huai'an, who was waiting for her above, was nowhere to be found.
There was an oil lamp burning in the room.
Shen Lingxi walked to the table and found a note on it.
Mu Huai'an's elegant font jumped on the paper: "If you have something to go home, you will talk about it in detail another day." β
This is the first time Shen Lingxi has seen Mu Huai'an, and he left halfway through the investigation of the case.
The inside and outside of the Yunjiang Royal Mansion were sealed off by Chu Yan's order, so naturally it would not be the Mu family who suddenly sent a message to let him return to the palace.
There must be something else hidden in this.
Shen Lingxi raised his eyes as if he had a feeling, and looked at the idyllic and wild Danqing picture hanging on the wall.
She thought back to Mu Huai'an's steps to open the secret door of the secret room.
The mechanism for opening the door is on the left side of the painting, and the secret door is on the right side of the painting.
Mu Huai'an almost did not hesitate to reach out and grope for the mechanism on the left side, and his gaze happened to fall on the right side of the painting......
It's as if he knows how to open the secret room.
Thinking of this, Shen Lingxi's eyebrows moved slightly.
She was sure that before entering the house, Mu Huai'an didn't know the road of the Yunjiang Palace, and she was completely unfamiliar with this courtyard.
Then the problem should be with this painting.
Could it be that this painting has anything to do with the Mu family?
Shen Lingxi took a closer look at the painting again, but did not see any clues.
She simply put the note away, put it in her sleeve, and walked out of the room with the wind lamp.
The courtyard was lit with candles, and the incense burners had been cleaned up.
In just a few moments, the night wind has blown away the smell of the courtyard.
A doctor is carrying a medical box on his back, treating the injured who are unconscious in the hospital.
Candles were lit in the east wing.
Chunjun was guarding the door, and when he saw Shen Lingxi coming out of the upper room, he hurriedly turned around and reported inside: "Your Highness, the crown princess has come out." β
Shen Lingxi was slightly surprised and walked into the room quickly.
At this moment, Chu Yan was breathing on the bed, as if he heard her footsteps, he slowly opened his eyes, and his phoenix eyes were already clear.
Shen Lingxi walked up to him and reached out to take his pulse in confusion.
The pulse is neither buoyant nor sinking, and it is gentle and powerful...... It doesn't look like I've been 'intoxicated' and drugged at all.
You must know that the pill she fed him just now, although it is not as powerful as the 'Qianjin Xiang', it can also make ordinary people sleep for a day and a night, how can it be so fast......
"I have been taking poison pills all year round, and the drug has not done much for me." Chu Yan explained in a warm voice.
When Shen Lingxi heard this, his apricot eyes condensed slightly.
It is said that in this big week, with Chu Yan's identity, there must be many guards around him, and he is heavily guarded, so how can he take poison avoidance pills all year round?
"What did you find in the Chamber of Secrets?" Chu Yan deliberately changed the topic, as if he didn't want to talk about it more.
Seeing this, Shen Lingxi did not delve into this matter and withdrew his hand.
Although the drug is ineffective, the effect of "intoxication" cannot be eliminated in a short time.
Otherwise, how could Xie Zhanghua reach the point of madness back then.
The length of the effect of "intoxication" depends on the obsession in people's hearts.
This is also the reason why they dragged Xie Zhangting's only remaining breath back then, and let Xie Zhanghua see her before dying.
Only in this way will Xie Zhangting's death become Xie Zhanghua's obsession.
Thinking of this, Shen Lingxi didn't answer and asked, "Does Your Highness have any other discomfort?" For example, when you close your eyes, do you still have any hallucinations in your mind? β
"Nope." Chu Yan's eyes flashed slightly, and he said in a calm tone: "I'm fine, don't worry." β
He paused, "It's a pity that you let you run away." β
"Why did Your Highness fall for Urda's wish?"
Shen Lingxi pondered and asked, "With His Highness's skills, your answer will definitely not be able to get close to His Highness's talent, and besides, if you can't see your five fingers in this courtyard, how can you be able to see his eyes?" β
"I can't see his eyes, and he can use sound, smoke, and fire tricks to create illusions."
Chu Yan said in a deep voice: "When we entered the courtyard, the courtyard was filled with smoke, from time to time there were fires shuttling in the smoke, there were black shadows attacking us everywhere, and there were ghost wails. At first, I couldn't tell the difference between friend and foe, but then there were ghosts asking for my life. β
When Shen Lingxi heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
It turned out that the incense burners in the courtyard were not only to make them "intoxicated", but also to create smoke to make an illusion.
It's just that......
"If Urda is just to escape for his life, he shouldn't have arranged so many things in this courtyard, with his ability, he should have fled a long time ago, why did he go to great lengths to set up a formation in this courtyard?" Shen Lingxi's eyes were full of doubts.
Judging by the vases in the cellar, your promised that they would not find the chamber, and he didn't even plan to move the contents of the chamber.
Why did you set up an ambush for Chu Yan in this courtyard?
If he was trying to take Chu Yan's life, the assassin could have relied on the illusion and concentrated all his strength on assassinating him.
Even if Chu Yan is strong in martial arts, he should be injured.
But Chu Yanzhou didn't have any traces of a fight on his body, as if he was ...... Urda is deliberately trapping people here.
What did he want?
Don't...... Is it like dealing with Xie Zhanghua back then, burying the illusion of "intoxication" in Chu Yan's body?
Thinking of this, Shen Lingxi's face changed slightly.
What she thought of, how could Chu Yan not think of it.
Chu Yan's eyes moved slightly, hiding the thoughts in his eyes, and said to Shen Lingxi: "No matter what he wants, as long as he has a plan, he will definitely appear again, and then we will catch turtles in the urn." The top priority is to find out what is going on in this palace, Chunjun said that you went to the autopsy and came here, can you find it? β
As if in response to his questionβ
Shen Lingxi suddenly heard a burst of laughter in the courtyard.
She turned her head to look, and saw that the group of female ghosts, surrounded by a white shadow full of "tentacles", floated into the courtyard from outside the wall......
