Mu Huaijie pointed the finger at the emperor.

This statement coincides with the queen's confession that the emperor behaves strangely during the day.

It's just that he is also involved in the jade seal.

How could anyone dare to touch the jade seal easily.

What's more, Chu Yan is the prince.

I'm afraid that if I look at it a few more times, it will make people suspect that he is plotting wrong.

Shen Lingxi's apricot eyes were slightly cold, and his expression was not at all in disbelief.

"You just said that Sheng Kun's 'fairy spirit' can only be stored in this jade pendant, and you have to send you to find 'rations' for him, but now you say that he is hidden in the jade seal and is on the emperor's body, which is inconsistent, I don't know what to do."

She deliberately repeated the key points that Mu Huaijie said and told the other three people.

After Chu Yan, Mu Huai'an, and Su Xian heard this, without exception, their faces all showed shock.

Mu Huaijie looked at Shen Lingxi like a fool, "I thought you were very powerful, but now it seems that you were able to kill Sheng Kun at the beginning, but it was just luck." ”

"Don't you know that the cultivation of the Immortal Family can be broken through? Sheng Kun's immortal spirits, after refining these people, their own skills have increased greatly, and if they break through their cultivation, they will naturally be able to leave this jade pendant and go wherever he wants, even going to the body of a living person. ”

This argument can only deceive a fool like you. Shen Lingxi silently slandered in his heart.

However, she can also extract useful information from Mu Huaijie's words.

The Dark Yang Jade originally had the function of gathering souls and refining souls, and Sheng Kun used the Dark Yang Jade to condense the soul of Tai Shumei in Yun Xi's corpse.

Sheng Kun is a descendant of the Holy Clan, and his soul is attached to the Dark Yang Jade, and it is reasonable to repair his own soul with the help of the Dark Yang Jade's ability to gather souls and refine his soul.

It's just that if Sheng Kun is really as Mu Huaijie said now, he can go wherever he wants, and he can take it away if he wants to, he is afraid that he will have to avenge Uncle Mei and himself a long time ago. How could he go to such great lengths to leave Mu Huaijie, a fool, here and dig a pit for her.

Thinking of this, Shen Lingxi grimaced and sneered, "Do you know that slandering the Holy Lord is a serious crime of raiding the family and exterminating the clan, although your Mu family has fallen, our Shen family's holy favor is Zhenglong, do you want to use me to anger the emperor, pull our Shen family into the water, and avenge yourself?" ”

Mu Huaijie's eyes widened.

"How do you think that?" How did he not expect that it could be like this.

Shen Lingxi flicked his sleeves and turned around, making a gesture to leave.

"Wait." Mu Huaijie hurriedly floated in front of her, "I didn't mean that, there is a debtor and a debtor, I just want Shen Yuyao's evil woman to suffer the consequences." Sheng Kun is now on the emperor's body, and he will deal with you soon, I have a way to get Sheng Kun's immortal spirit away from the emperor, if you believe me, you will do what I do, after the deed is completed, I want Shen Yuyao's life, how about it? ”

Shen Lingxi's eyes drooped slightly, hiding the mockery under her eyes, she pretended to be contemplative, deliberately hung him for a while, and softened her tone slightly, "Let's hear it, what kind of method can get Sheng Kun away from the emperor." ”

"I overheard Sheng Kun say earlier that what he is most afraid of is the Yin Yin Jade in your hands. As long as the emperor touched the dark yin jade, Sheng Kun would definitely be so frightened that he fled from the emperor. In this way, you can not only save the emperor, but also sue Shen Yuyao for murdering the emperor, and when the time comes, no matter whether she is pregnant with a dragon seed in her belly, the emperor will never let her go, so that we will each achieve our wishes. ”

The moment Shen Lingxi mentioned the "Yin Jade", he finally felt a little sudden in his heart.

"Sounds good." Shen Lingxi sighed for a few breaths, "It's just, how can I believe what you say, is it true or not?" In case you lie to me, then wouldn't I be gambling with more than 100 lives of our Shen family. ”

Mu Huaijie seemed to have expected her to say this, and directly stretched out his hand to the side, the weak Mu Huai'an.

"My brother came here to investigate the case five days ago, and was accidentally entered by the remnants of the fairy, if you don't believe it, you can use the Yin Jade to try it on him to see if what I said is true. Anyway, if you don't save him, he will definitely die in three days, and then you can also see if the fairy will grow up after devouring his essence and soul. ”

I was waiting here.

It seems that this wisp of remnant soul on the corpse was Sheng Kun who thought that she would not believe Mu Huaijie's words, so he deliberately stayed it and gave her a jade test.

It's just that he was inadvertently led by Mu Huai'an.

Sheng Kun is really well-intentioned.

"Since you said that this black thing is Sheng Kun's 'fairy', then our every move and what we said at this time, is it already known to Sheng Kun?" Shen Lingxi asked again and again.

"You don't have to worry about that." Mu Huaijie was very sure, "After Sheng Kun was burned to death by you, his soul was attached to the fragments of the Dark Yang Jade, and these spiritual threads were like hair, inextricably linked, and they could only be controlled by him within Sheng Kun's reach. ”

"Whether it's the wisp that just got into the jade, or the wisp in my brother's body, as long as you don't get close to Sheng Kun, you just rely on instinct to suck essence blood and refine your soul."

Shen Lingxi finally felt a little relieved, she paused, and said meaningfully: "Even if what you say is true, it is difficult for me not to suspect that you and Sheng Kun are in a gang and conspire to harm me." ”

Mu Huaijie's eyes flashed slightly, his face instantly turned cold, he snorted coldly, brushed his sleeves and turned around, "Believe it or not, anyway, Sheng Kun is the emperor, and he will definitely take your life, if you don't believe it, then go to death and see, after all, it's just that I can't take revenge, but you lost your life." ”

Although he said this, he turned his back to Shen Lingxi's body, but he never left.

Shen Lingxi fell silent.

For a moment, the two were at a stalemate.

After a long while, Shen Lingxi estimated that the heat was almost over, and Fang made a compromising tone: "In this way, if you help me do something, I will believe you." ”

Mu Huaijie turned around quickly, looked at her and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"I have three revenant friends who have been following me, but a few days ago, after they entered the palace, they didn't come back, I guess it should be Sheng Kun's ghost. You have done things for Sheng Kun for so long, he naturally believes in you very much, as long as you rescue the three dead souls from his hands, I believe that you have nothing to do with him. Shen Lingxi said.

This time, Mu Huaijie agreed very happily, "I'll go find someone for you." ”

As he spoke, he drifted away.

When his soul disappeared at the end of the cellar, Shen Lingxi pointed to the jade pendant and relayed Fang Cai Mu Huaijie's words to the three of them.

At the end, she looked at Su Xian and asked, "Has the Dao Elder ever seen relevant records in ancient books?" That Yin Yin Jade can drive away people's souls, if you use the Yin Yin Jade to drive Mu Huai'an's soul away......"

"It can't be like that." Su Xian didn't want to deny it, "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing said: 'The blood and qi have been harmonized, the camp and the guard have been passed, the five organs have been completed, the spirit is sacrificed, and the soul is complete, and it has become a human being. It is said that the soul of a man is born in the heart, and it is said, "The liver hides the blood, and the blood gives up the soul." It means that the soul of a person is stored in the blood, and it is hidden in the liver with the blood. ”

"The reason why Sheng Kun's remnant soul penetrates into people's bloodlines and sucks essence blood is because only in this way can it attach to people's living souls and refine souls for his use."

"If you use the Yin Yin Jade to drive away the human soul, this black line remnant soul can no longer suck the essence blood and directly refine the human soul, in this way, isn't it equivalent to peeling the shell and feeding the chestnut to him?"

Shen Lingxi suddenly said, "So, Sheng Kun intends to let Mu Huaijie stay here and tell me that the Yin Jade can save the emperor who is haunted by the remnant soul, and his purpose is to borrow our hands to force the emperor's soul out and help him refine?" ”

Her eyes were slightly cold, "If we really follow what he said, we will become the real murderers of the emperor." ”

Sure enough, it's a good plan.

"I'm afraid it's more than that." Chu Yan groaned and said, "If the imperial uncle dies, I will be the heir to the throne, even if I lose the hearts of the people because of the 'killing' of the imperial uncle, but this country is still the country of the Chu family after all." How can he replace me with a mere soul body? He won't do this kind of loss-making business that gives his interests to others. ”

"He can still take it." Su Xian was beside him, and said firmly: "The emperor's soul is separated from the body, which is the shell of the ownerless, which is the most suitable for his upper body." At that time, this country will be his, and you will also be killed by him for the crime of treason, which is his real purpose. ”

When Shen Lingxi heard this, he suddenly felt a sense of empowerment.

At the beginning, outside Yunbian City, Sheng Kun used the jade seal of the former dynasty as a guide, and designed to let Chu Yan touch the Yin Yin Jade, so as to drive Chu Yan's soul away from his body and take Chu Yan away.

Now, turning such a big corner is just a repetition of the old trick.

It's just that now Sheng Kun's target is no longer Chu Yan, but has become the emperor.

It can also be seen from this that Mu Huaijie's statement that "Sheng Kun has been on the emperor's body" is an outright lie.

Shen Lingxi thought of this, and in the bottom of her heart, after returning from Kunning Palace, all the details that confused her were finally solved.

"I think I've already guessed all of Sheng Kun's plans." Shen Lingxi was determined.

She raised her eyes to look at Su Xian, "It's just that the top priority now is to find a way to get rid of the remnant soul on Mu Huai'an's body." ”

At this time, seeing that she still remembered her Mu Huai'an, her heart was very appropriate.

He glanced at Chu Yan quickly.

I saw Chu Yan raise his eyes, and Liang Liang looked at him.

Mu Huai'an coughed deeply, and said to Shen Lingxi, "After taking your medicine, I feel much better, I'm fine, don't worry about me, it's better to do business first." ”

Shen Lingxi looked at him, "Mu Huaijie said, you only have three days left to live, if you don't expel that black thread from your body, you will be like this corpse, your blood will be cut off and you will die, and even your soul will become the ration of that remnant soul." ”

Mu Huai'an: ......

"That's right, let's try him, how to get that black line out of his body."

Chu Yan's thin lips raised slightly, and he spoke at the right time, "Yu Peili also has to get rid of this idea, only in this way can he be more sure when facing Sheng Kun." ”

Su Xian leaned over, lit the dim candle flame, and carefully examined the jade pendant.

After a long time, he said slowly: "These days, I have also found several ways to deal with Sheng Kun, since there is jade and people now, then we will simply try it here overnight." ”

Shen Lingxi and Chu Yan glanced at each other, and their expressions were relieved.

"Okay, I'll help you." Shen Lingxi smiled and said to Su Xian.

She turned her head and looked at Mu Huai'an again, "I still have to confirm one more thing to you, the most important thing, now that you are the only one left in the Mu family, it is estimated that only you know about this matter......"

*

Early the next morning.

When Shen Lingxi and Chu Yan's carriage carried the dying Mu Huai'an, they returned to the East Palace.

Mu Huaijie had already taken Liu Meiren and the two concubines and waited at the door of the main hall.

Chu Yan used the excuse that he had government affairs to deal with, so he left in a hurry and joined Su Xian, who was waiting outside the mansion.

The embroidered envoy carried Mu Huai'an to the side hall to rest.

Mu Huaijie saw Mu Huai'an's appearance, his expression moved slightly, and he didn't have time to fight Shen Lingxi when he greeted him, so he went over to check.

Seeing this, Liu Meiren and the two concubines hurriedly greeted Shen Lingxi.

"This time we have suffered a big crime, if it weren't for the sudden water in the cold palace, the people sent by the Moon Concubine inadvertently unlocked the soul lock formation, in a few days, I am afraid you will not see the three of us again."

After Shen Lingxi saw Shen Huacheng at the gate of the cold palace that day, he asked Xiaodouzi to find Concubine Yue.

Concubine Yue is now in charge of the harem, and she will come forward to secretly investigate whether there is a special soul-locking magic circle in this harem, which is the least likely to arouse people's suspicions.

The formations used by Sheng Kun all relied on those black clay pieces of special materials, which could be discovered as long as the chamberlain and palace maids paid a little attention.

"Did Concubine Yue really save you?" Shen Lingxi asked, "Then why are you with Mu Huaijie?" ”

Liu Meiren wondered why she asked this, but she also replied truthfully: "When he came out of the formation, he happened to be looking for us nearby, saying that he was at your request, so we came back with him." ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Shen Lingxi's eyes.

"It seems that he still found Sheng Kun, if it weren't for that, it wouldn't be such a coincidence, it just happened to be near you." She lowered her voice and asked, "What happened?" ”

Liu Meiren heard her mention Sheng Kun, and her face suddenly became a little angry.

"When the three of us returned to the cold palace, we happened to meet Sheng Kun's black remnant souls, which were attached to the souls of the dozen or so dead souls, sucking their souls."

"We originally planned to come back to report to you, but we didn't expect to meet a man in black, who can not only see us, but also manipulate those black lines and drag our souls into the soul locking formation. That formation is much more powerful than the previous soul locking formation, and in just a few days, you can see what we have become. ”

Shen Lingxi looked at them carefully, but he hadn't noticed it yet, and only then did he find that the skirts on Liu Meiren and the two concubines were all tattered at the edges, and there was a concubine among them, and the skirt and her feet seemed to have been cut off by something.

"You said that the man in black is a living person, and he can still control those black lines?" Shen Lingxi confirmed again.

The three souls nodded in unison, "It's a living person." ”

"He must be Sheng Kun's possessed person." Shen Lingxi said firmly, "Only those who possess him can control those black lines, and those black lines are his remnant soul." Have you ever seen a man in black? ”
