Moreover, Yixuan also ordered Yan Bei to find a lot of books on ghosts and ghosts from outside the palace, so that she could pass the time and relieve her boredom.

Compared with her leisure, Yixuan is busy as a dog during the day.

During the day, there are endless reviews and unfinished political affairs, and at night I have to continue to lie down and pretend to leave my soul.

On this day, just after breakfast, Yixuan was reviewing the folds, and Chang Yue took a book of folk weird stories and sat beside him to read it.

The two sat next to each other without disturbing each other.

The atmosphere that should have been quiet and beautiful was broken by the arrival of Shaoqing of Dali Temple.

"Your Highness." Pei Yuanshu bowed to Yixuan and bowed to Chang Yue.

Chang Yue is the first time to see Pei Yuanshu, this person can't look at it but just over twenty, although he is the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, he has no anger on his body, but he looks like a son who is as warm as jade.

Thinking that Yixuan and Pei Yuanshu had something to discuss, Chang Yue got up and went back to the inner hall, Yixuan told her not to avoid it, but she had no interest in those things in the court, so it was better to watch her folk strange talk quietly.

Yixuan didn't force her, and after seeing her enter the inner hall, he asked Pei Yuanshu: "Master Pei came to find Prince Ben, what is the so-called matter?" ”

Most of the talented people arrested in Dali Temple have been released, and after leaving a few strict trials for misconduct, they have all been corrected on the spot to set an example, so Pei Yuanshu must have come to the East Palace today for something else.

Pei Yuanshu said with a straight face: "Back to the prince, last night Cheng Mansion went to the assassin, and the old general Cheng was injured, so he didn't have to worry about his life. ”

Hearing this, Yixuan's eyes sank, and he asked in a cold voice: "Can you find out who committed the assassination?" ”

"When the subordinates arrived with people, the assassin had already run away, but the subordinates checked the dart on General Cheng's body, and it was from the Hades Palace!"

Two days ago, Yan Bei reported that assassins from the Hades Palace had infiltrated the capital, and when Yixuan sent him to investigate, the assassins hid their whereabouts and never showed up again.

But you don't want them to appear again, but it is to assassinate General Cheng?

Yixuan felt that this matter was a little strange, so he named Cheng Yu as the commander of the ironclad army, and then the old general Cheng was assassinated, but he was afraid that there was no such coincidence.

Moreover, the Hades Palace will definitely see blood and seal his throat when he shoots, and he will never miss it.

General Cheng was only injured, and it seems that the other party is obviously mainly a warning.

After all, the Cheng family has heavy troops, and the Cheng family army is stationed at the border fortress all the year round, if you kill General Cheng directly, not only will there be a storm in the court, but the border pass will also fall into chaos.

"Pei Yuanshu, you personally lead someone to investigate secretly, be sure to find the hiding place of the killer in the Hades Palace, this prince wants to catch him alive!"

Yixuan actually has a guess about the mastermind behind the scenes, looking at the entire capital, there is the financial strength to make the Hades Palace dispatch so many killers, except for the Zhou family, I am afraid that no one dares to have such a big hand.

Pei Yuanshu has always figured out Yixuan's thoughts, he knew that Yixuan wanted to catch alive in order to find out the evidence that the Zhou family bought the murderer, he was about to speak, but he saw Yan Bei suddenly come in, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, Uncle Guo and the eldest prince of Zhou are here." ”

Uncle Guo is naturally Zhou Zhentian, the head of the Zhou family, and the eldest son of Zhou is Zhou Huai'an, the eldest son of Zhou Zhentian.

Zhou Huai'an is two years older than Yixuan, and he is Yixuan's favorite cousin when he was a child.

Over the years, Zhou Zhentian has arranged many officials in the court, but to Yixuan's surprise, he did not bring Zhou Huai'an into the court, but let Zhou Huai'an take over all the business of the Zhou family.

So the current situation is that Zhou Zhentian monopolizes power in the court, and Zhou Huai'an develops the Zhou family's financial resources and makes the Zhou family's business bigger and bigger.

It can be said that the current Zhou family has occupied half of the northern country, how can this not make Yixuan jealous.

"Since Uncle Guo is visiting, Weichen will retire first." Pei Yuanshu said respectfully, and then withdrew.

Zhou Zhentian and Zhou Huai'an saluted Yixuan, and Yixuan got up to greet him, and said with a lazy smile: "When did my uncle and cousin come back from Jiangnan, why didn't you send someone to inform me, so I can pick up a few dusts for the two of you." ”

Zhou Zhentian responded: "When I arrived in the capital yesterday, I thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was ill, so I didn't send someone to the East Palace to inform him, but first went back to the mansion to recuperate, and I came to visit the prince today." ”

After saying that, Zhou Zhentian waved his hand outside, only to see several subordinates walking in with all kinds of valuable things and putting them on the table in the hall one by one.

"The prince is suffering from a strange disease, and his uncle was also very concerned when he was in Jiangnan, so he specially ordered someone to find these precious medicinal materials, hoping that it would be suitable for the prince's health."

Zhou Zhentian said sincerely, and made a worried look.

Yixuan sneered in his heart, but he didn't show it, but smiled gratefully: "In this way, thank you uncle." ”

At this time, Zhou Huai'an, who had not spoken, walked up to him and said worriedly: "When I was in Jiangnan, I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had fallen under an evil spell, and I don't know if I could find a way to solve the curse?" ”

Yixuan, who is no longer out of his soul, actually looks no different from ordinary people, but in order to act in a full set, Chang Yue used a blinding method on him, making his eyes sunken in the eyes of others, his face turned black, and he obviously looked like he had little time.

So Yixuan deliberately coughed a few times suddenly, then clutched his chest, and gasped breathlessly: "Cousin looks at me like this, as if he has found a way to solve the curse, I'm afraid time is running out......"

After speaking, he made a sad and desperate look, and had to make Zhou Zhentian and Zhou Huaian believe it.

Zhou Zhentian sighed and said, "There are many capable people in the world, is it possible to find no one who can solve the spell for His Highness?" ”

Zhou Huai'an also said: "The prince asked to marry Princess Chang Yue of the Southern Kingdom, I heard that Princess Chang Yue is very powerful, why didn't the prince let her give it a try?" ”

Chang Yue, who was supposed to be reading at ease in the inner hall, came to the wall at some point, and she suddenly popped out of the crack in the door of the inner hall and said loudly: "I've already tried it, the prince's curse is too evil, I can't solve it." ”

She was not interested in the affairs of the court, but she was quite curious about the visit of the Zhou family's father and son, so she deliberately came here to listen to a corner.

When the father and son of the Zhou family heard this, they all looked at Chang Yue's side.

But seeing that Chang Yue winked at them, and then said with a helpless look: "I am shallow, and I really can't help His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to relieve the curse, but if you really want to save him, you can go to the south to invite my master within a month, maybe my master can save him." ”

In fact, she had long wanted to pass on the book to her master Feige, and asked her master to take time to come to the north.

Although Yixuan's curse divided half of her, she still hadn't found out what kind of curse he was in, if she didn't lift it as soon as possible, maybe the two of them would have to go to Huangquan hand in hand.
