Chapter 277: Death and Life (Two in One)

"Yes." Shaohua nodded confirmatively: "The soul of the princess back then was driven away by the yin jade. ”

Shen Lingxi's eyes narrowed slightly.

If Xiang Zhou wants to take Chu Yan's body, he will definitely borrow the power of the Yin Jade.

It's just that where is this Yin Jade hidden by him?

Now that he knows the effectiveness of the Dark Yang Jade, it is very easy to deal with Uncle Tai.

can deal with Xiang Zhou, but he can't act rashly.

Xiang Zhou, this person, was obviously killed when the previous dynasty destroyed the country, but he was able to change his body and come back to life.

Obviously, he is a member of the previous dynasty, but he knows the proverbs and inheritance of the saint well.

He is burdened with evil laws, and he is not to be underestimated.

If you are a little careless, if he is resurrected in a different shell, he will use the Yin Jade as a haunt, and it will be impossible to prevent it.

Shen Lingxi groaned for a few breaths, and he already had a plan in his heart.

She walked to the bookcase, offered the pen and paper to Shaohua, and said to Shaohua, "Auntie, can you draw me the appearance of the Yin Jade?" ”

Shaohua nodded.

She has served by the side of Queen Zansi since she was a child, and her painting skills are naturally outstanding, and she painted Yujue with just a few strokes. ”

Shen Lingxi copied it on the paper, and whispered a few words to her, asking her to hide it in this book pavilion so that Xiang Zhou would not find out.

Then he took the piece of paper and turned around and walked towards Chu Yan.

"Please also ask Your Highness to help me check someone, and by the way, invite another person, hurry up and come to Yunjiang......"

*

At the same time, in the Lingxi Palace.

Uncle Taimei lay on the bed tossing and turning, and finally remembered what the smell she was familiar with in the carriage today.

She sat up suddenly, and said to Xiang Zhou, who was floating by the window, with a nervous expression: "I remember, the smell of the little blind man today...... The smell was from Yun Xi's corpse. After I attached myself to this body, the whole coffin smelled like this...... How can you say that a living person smells of a corpse? ”

"Is she ...... Have you been in contact with Yunxi's corpse? ”

With Uncle Tai's brain, she can only think of this layer.

But Xiang Zhou has already seen through the mystery.

"I see." He said with a gloomy expression, "No wonder I always feel that something is wrong when I see that little blind man and the prince walking together. ”

"What do you mean?" Uncle Tai asked puzzled.

Xiang Zhou was afraid of scaring her, so he hesitated for a few breaths before he said slowly: "If what I expected is right, that little blind man is Yun Xi's corpse, and her soul was not sucked into the jade pendant that day, but hid in Yun Xi's corpse. ”

Uncle Tai's eyes widened in shock, "Then won't we be able to catch her anymore?" ”

"What does she want to do?" The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became, so she put on her embroidered shoes and went out: "She will stay in the Shenming Palace tonight, with the prince, and she can't let them stay alone." No way! I'm going to have to tear her down and lock her up. ”

"What are you going to do to demolish her?" Xiang Zhou floated in front of her, "Don't forget, you just used the identity of the saint's possession to resolve the people's anger during the day, if you demolish her in public and be seen her true appearance, what good will it do to you?" ”

Uncle Mei paused and said viciously: "Even if she faces Yunxi's face, she is still a dried corpse." A terrible ghost who cheats the corpse, everyone gets and punishes him. Da Zhou couldn't tolerate her, and calcined her as a demon girl with a blazing fire, crushing her corpse and scattering ashes, she couldn't be attached to those ashes anymore, right? ”

"The people of Yunjiang will not allow you to do this." Xiang Zhou looked at her, and analyzed with her in a warm voice, "She is a saint, even if she is a ghost who cheats corpses, in the eyes of those ignorant people, she is also the closest person to the gods." If the people knew that she could be resurrected, they would only worship and revere her, and would never allow Da Zhou to crush her bones and scatter her to ashes. ”

He paused, "What's more, the prince won't allow you to do this." He brought Yun Xi back to the Shenming Palace, which means that he also knows her true identity, don't forget, the two of them are the real husband and wife. ”

"What then?" Uncle Mei anxiously walked back and forth in the dormitory, "You can't just let them be in one place, right?" That little girl pretended to be so similar, there must be a lot of ghost ideas, they must be thinking about how to take this body back, if they know how to deal with me, then I will not die soon? ”

Xiang Zhou's expression was very calm.

"I know that girl's temperament very well, for four whole days, she has not done anything, and she still wants to act like this, she must be afraid of me in her heart, looking for my flaws."

"That's fine, originally I wanted to wait for Chu Yan to leave Yunjiang before making a quiet move, but now that they know your true identity, it may be better to do it in this Yunbian City."

Uncle Tai Mei saw that he looked calm and relaxed, and his nervous heart gradually settled down, "What should I do?" ”

"You don't have to do anything out of your mind, just pretend you don't know, just deal with them for a while, and wait until the fifteenth day of the next month, and I will ...... myself."

Xiang Zhou's gaze looked around vigilantly, and finally attached it to her ear, explaining a few words, and his voice was inaudible......

*

Because of the performance of the "Crown Princess" on the holy mountain, the people of Yunbian City showed unprecedented enthusiasm for the "Crown Princess".

For several days, in front of the palace of Yunjiang, the people who came to make a pilgrimage to worship surrounded the long streets and alleys around the palace.

Xiang Zhou's soul disappeared overnight.

But Uncle Tai Mei was as usual, and she didn't show the slightest abnormality on her face.

She went to the Shenming Palace every day to sit for half an hour, trying her best to win Chu Yan's attention.

It's not pretending to spill tea, getting your clothes wet, or changing clothes through the screen.

It is to roll up the sleeves, twist the waist, and scratch the head and make a posture.

did his best not to get close to Chu Yan, so that he could feel the "style" that was completely different from Shen Lingxi.

Before Shen Lingxi learned that this body was his own, he only thought that he was a dead soul living in this body, and he would only feel disobedient to such a scene.

And now, since she already knew that this body was hers, seeing this kind of scene, she was so embarrassed that she picked her toes on the ground, and she couldn't wait to kick Tai Shumei out of her body immediately.

Chu Yan always turned his face sideways with "don't look at it".

It's just that inadvertently, the line of sight intersected with Shen Lingxi-

The scene will change from Shen Lingxi's embarrassment to two people's ...... Shame.

Shen Lingxi is only a corpse now, but he can't see anything.

But Chu Yan is a big living person.

His ears were visibly stained crimson.

If Uncle Tai didn't know the relationship between the two, and saw Chu Yan, who had always been cold and detached, and changed into this appearance, she might think that her "seduction" had worked.

But now, when I saw the two of them meeting their eyes, there was a pull like no one else.

Tai Shumei only felt that her hard work had become a part of the entanglement between the two of them.

She's so angry!

In order to get angry, Uncle Tai pretended to be unaware, deliberately ridiculed the "little blind man" Shen Lingxi, and deliberately looked at Chu Yan's reaction.

Seeing Chu Yan's eyes dark, he looked like he wanted to attack her, but he had to endure his anger.

Uncle Mei thought that she could relieve her anger, but when she saw Chu Yan's maintenance of the "little blind man" with her own eyes, she felt extremely uncomfortable.

How could such a handsome and affectionate man fall in love with such an incomprehensible mallet?

She was even angrier.

Time passed quietly between Tai Shumei, anger and more anger......

Neither humans nor ghosts have found out—

Late one night, in the dilapidated alley of the poor people of Yunbian City, there was a dying man covered with abscesses, and he swallowed silently.

It's just that after a cup of tea, he suddenly opened his eyes again.

He gasped for breath, sat up from his dirty bedding, leaned against the wall, fumbled around the wall, and finally found a loose brick.

Pull out the wall tile, there is a mechanism inside, and press it down gently.

I only heard a "click", and in the corner of the room, a secret door slowly opened.

He shoved the bricks back into the wall, walked stiffly, walked into the secret door, and through the corner of the door, felt a fire fold, and lit it.

Pressing the mechanism in the door again, the secret door closed silently behind him, and he lit an oil lamp and walked down the stone steps to the depths of the secret passage.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, he finally arrived at a secret room.

The secret room is filled with the old but quaint medicinal fragrance, and the shelves of an entire wall are filled with all kinds of porcelain vases.

The medicinal fragrance emanates faintly from those porcelain bottles.

He expertly took the leftmost porcelain bottle in the third row, poured out the pills inside, and swallowed them all in one go.

But after half an hour, the body that was originally covered with abscesses and panting became more energetic.

He walked over to the table against the wall, opened the makeup on it, took out a human skin mask, and put it on himself.

Then, he took off his tattered clothes, put them on the neatly folded robe on the table, and finally put on a dark blue cloak for himself.

The messy hair was also combed neatly with the mane comb that had been prepared on the table.

After doing this, he looked at himself in the bronze mirror and looked at himself in the mirror, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes.

Xu is the effect of the elixir, which is indeed mysterious.

When he stood up again, his steps were no longer as stiff as before, but rather swift.

Instead of returning the way he came, he groped for a new mechanism, opened another door to the chamber, and headed for a deeper passage.

The secret passages are winding, and in some places, some even collapse, and there is a faint smell of fish.

It is enough to see that the construction time of this secret passage is very long.

This time, he walked for more than half an hour, and finally reached the end of the secret passage.

"Click......"

He pressed the mechanism on the wall, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

It is a wide ancestral hall with dense spiritual seats on all sides, and rows of oil lamps on the incense table make the ancestral hall as bright as day.

In the corner of the ancestral hall, on the thick floor, the night watchman who fell asleep heard the movement and opened his eyes in a daze.

When he saw the face of the visitor, his face was instantly filled with surprise.

The night watchman hurriedly got up, knelt on the ground, and bowed respectfully to the man, "Great Commander, you have finally returned." The master of the house has been waiting for you for many years, and you wait here, and the villain will go and inform the master of the house, and come to meet you himself......"

*

A month passed.

The entire Yunjiang Palace, except for Tai Shumei, is as calm as a windless and rainless lake, without the slightest ripple.

During this period, Kui 19 came back in a hurry and left quickly.

This time, Chu Yan, who is the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, came to Yunjiang in person to attend the canonization ceremony of Yun Yu, the new king of Yunjiang.

Xu is because of the performance of the "crown princess" in the holy mountain, which made the people love the house and Wu, and changed their view of cloud delirium.

Or maybe Xiao Rui suffered a loss on the holy mountain, learned a lesson, and didn't dare to make any more mistakes.

There are no weird rumors that are rife in Cloudside City anymore.

The streets and alleys are lit up with lights, a happy and peaceful scene, and everyone is looking forward to the canonization ceremony.

Under the deduction of the priests, the canonization ceremony was held at noon on the fifteenth day of the lunar month.

On that day, the weather was unusually cold, and just after the hour, it began to snow heavily.

Even in such bad weather, the enthusiasm of the people of Yunbian City for the canonization ceremony has not diminished in the slightest.

The ceremony was held in the ancestral temple of Yunjiang Wangfu.

The ancestral temple is located on the central axis of the whole palace, dividing the palace into two, the left is now the place and residence of the king of Yunjiang to deal with government affairs, and the palace on the right has become the palace only for the relatives of the Great Zhou Emperor to live in Yunjiang.

The canonization ceremony, in the goose feather snow, was grand and solemn.

The door of the house was wide open, and the red silk was spread from the gate of the house to the top of the steps of the ancestral temple.

The mighty and cold black armor guards stand on both sides.

The dignitaries and the common people all knelt on both sides of the road, listening to Chu Yan, as the crown prince of the Great Zhou, on behalf of the Great Zhou royal family, personally read out the holy decree to show the importance and recognition of the Great Zhou to Yun Yu, the king of Yunjiang.

According to the rules of Yunhongshan when he was canonized as the king of Yunjiang, on the night of the canonization, the king of Yunjiang needed to have a banquet with flowing water, enjoy with the people, and drink pepper wine.

Therefore, after the canonization ceremony, from the bottom steps of the ancestral temple, in front of the east gate of Yunbian City, there are banquets on both sides of the road, and bonfires are placed.

In the gloomy weather, from the highest point of the palace, looking into the distance, the main road of Yunbian City, like a white fire dragon, has been winding to the outside of the city gate.

The people sang and danced, and everywhere there was a noise of gongs and drums, and laughter and laughter.

At noon, the golden chariot carrying the crown prince walked in front, and the Zhu chariot ridden by the king of Xinyunjiang followed closely behind, escorted by the black armor guard, along the road of the pepper pulp banquet, and paraded in the direction of the city gate.

The Zhu Rim of the King of Yunjiang is open on all sides, in order to let the people see the demeanor of the new King of Yunjiang, and it also has the meaning of "enjoying with the people".

And the golden chariot on which the prince rode was separated by a heavy veil on all sides, so that the people inside could see the outside, but the people outside could not see what was going on inside.

The crown prince and the crown princess are naturally among them.

Just in the corner of the carriage, there was a thin figure, curled up in the corner, no one cared.

A man with a clumsy figure in a dark blue cloak hid in the corner of the city gate, trying his best to look at the three people in the golden chariot slowly approaching the city gate.

When he landed his gaze on Chu Yan's blurred figure, a look of mockery crossed his eyes.

He pulled a sharp dagger out of his sleeve and stabbed it into his heart.

The blade stabbed into his heart, blood gushed out instantly, and in an instant, the man lost his breath.

And at the moment when he lost his breath, a white soul shadow slowly rose out of the shell, glanced in the direction of the golden chariot again, turned around and floated outside the city gate......
