After abandoning the Ruthless Dao Sword Venerable, verse 88
"Hmm......" Usu knew that she had already died once, so she was extremely relieved about life and death.
"Then, please tell me what you want, I will ...... Do everything you can. β
"If, if it's too hard to do, I'll probably say no." Usu knew he couldn't do a lot of things.
"Miss Wu, don't worry, my wish will not be very big." The crown princess nodded to Usu.
"I think the only person I remember is Yi'er." She said to Usu.
ββ
At the same time, Pei Jiuzhi and the crown prince were about to walk to the west side of the prince's mansion.
Under the dense bamboo forest, Pei Jiuzhi stopped, and he said to the prince, "Look at the scenery." β
"Jiuzhi, what are you...... What do you mean? The prince was a little puzzled.
"The night is just right, the bamboo shadow is elegant, appreciate one or two, why not?" Pei Jiuzhi asked rhetorically.
"If you like it, look at it." The prince said with his hands in his hands.
ββ
"Yi'er, yes...... Little Emperor Sun? Usu asked.
"Yes, he's my only child." The crown princess nodded, "In the early years, Xianzhou passed down an oracle, saying that the demons suppressed under Yundu had abnormal movements, and our Pei family heirs to the next generation would be cursed, and it would be difficult to continue. I don't believe it, but you see, when I gave birth to Yi'er, I fell ill and died. β
"He can influence the path of the stars." The crown princess whispered, "It's not a curse, it's more like a ...... Destiny. β
"Oh-" Usu heard in a fog.
"It's far away." The crown princess said.
She looked at Usu with gentle eyes, and said calmly: "Hua Xuan has done something wrong, and I can't stop him from ......"
"He has to pay for this, and I am dead, who will take care of Yi'er in this world?"
"I hope you can help me find a sheltered home for Yi'er."
Chapter 53: Fifty-Three Points of Light
Hearing the crown princess say this, Usu thought of the little guy whose front teeth were crumbling.
She had seen many human cubs, but most of them were noisy, and they were the first ones to be as well-behaved as the little emperor's grandson.
"He's sensible, right?" The crown princess looked at Usu and smiled softly.
Usu nodded.
"I'm gone, Hua Xuan doesn't have a lot of time to spend with him, he can only try to make himself more well-behaved and not cause trouble to the people around him."
The crown princess's eyelashes drooped slightly, and her face showed some sadness.
The incense candle behind her was about to burn out, and Usu sniffed the psychedelic aroma without saying a word.
She didn't have any curiosity about the princess and the prince, and she wouldn't take the initiative to ask about their past.
This silence is gentle and kind to a soul who is about to pass away.
If this life is not smooth, there are many ups and downs, and no one will want to remember their life in the moment before they die.
The candle wax flowed down like tears, and behind the heavy blue-white veil, the light on the broken candle was dying.
The appearance of the crown princess gradually blurred, and she turned into green smoke and disappeared without a trace.
Usu reached out in her direction, receiving the divine message she had left behind.
She had to wait until she fulfilled the crown princess's wish before she could completely absorb the yin and yang energy she left behind.
This time, the yin and yang energy she gave to Wu Su was similar to what Yue Xin gave.
Her wish was stronger and stronger than Yue Xin's, but her physical body had been dead for a long time.
The rest of the soul is not enough to produce too much yin and yang energy.
But these are abundant enough for Usu.
Her form turned into a small moth, and she carried the sword of His Royal Highness on her back, and swayed outward.
However, as soon as she flew out of the window, she heard the voice of His Royal Highness coming from the bamboo forest not far away.
The vague figure gradually emerges with the rustle of bamboo leaves being shaken by the wind.
It's His Royal Highness and the Prince! Usu recognized them.
Because His Royal Highness's sword is indeed too bright, the body of Usu's small moth is very conspicuous.
In addition, she was not sure if His Highness had any special sense with the sword on her body.
So Usu decided not to go near them and find a place to hide first.
She flew towards the lantern under the eaves at the entrance of the ancestral hall, and got into the gap in the lantern a moment before His Royal Highness and the prince came in.
Usu hid in the veil, the light of the long sword hanging on his body merged with the candle flame in the lampshade.
Through the translucent veil, she saw His Royal Highness and the Crown Prince walking in together.
Their figures were blurred, and Usu could only hear the voices, but he couldn't see the expressions on their faces.
"Hey, the lantern outside this ancestral hall seems to be much brighter than usual." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at the green lantern that was blown by the wind and said suspiciously.
"Is there one?" Pei Jiuzhi raised his eyes and glanced at the lantern, pretending not to see anything.
"Maybe I'm wrong......" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't pay attention to this useless little detail, and instead looked at the white veil fluttering in the ancestral hall.
As the incense candle burned out, the faint fragrance in the air gradually disappeared.
"Rouhan!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince found the clue, he lifted the hem of his clothes and hurriedly ran inside.
Pei Jiuzhi stood not far behind him, he was still at the door, the moonlight fell, stretching him towards the figure inside the ancestral hall.
"Imperial sister-in-law, it's dead." Pei Jiuzhi opened his mouth and said calmly, his voice was as cold as moonlight.
"Of course I know, she died a long time ago, not long after giving birth to Yi'er!"
These words seemed to have violated some taboo of the prince, and he turned his head suddenly, stared at Pei Jiuzhi and said.
"The breath of the spirit rhino incense candle is very light, and her soul ...... It's gone, too. Pei Jiuzhi told him the facts that the prince did not want to face.
"Before I leave today, I looked at the incense candles, and there were still many ...... that had not been burned."
He came to the tribute table in a panic, and sure enough, he didn't see the figure of the crown princess.
On the familiar tribute table, there were only a few tributes, among which was a bunch of lilac grapes, only one of which had been plucked.
The grape tasted by the dead soul loses its flavor, but its original shape remains.
She ...... It's going to disappear, why don't you tell me......" The prince muttered a little lost his soul.
"Tell you in advance, so that you can pray to the demon who cooperates with you again, and let him give you another pair of spirit rhino incense candles?"
Pei Jiuzhi's cold and sharp voice sounded behind him.
"Nine branches! Don't talk nonsense! The prince said in a loud voice.
"This incense candle is unique in the world, and I happened to buy it, even if I still want it...... Not anymore. β
"Brother Huang." Pei Jiuzhi looked at him, his expression seemed calm, but anger and disappointment had already appeared in his frozen eyes.
"Your love, nostalgia, and reluctance to the imperial sister-in-law are just a disguiseβa heavy veil hanging in front of this tribute table, and a layer that prevents me from continuing to investigate...... Protective enclosure. β
"There is an evil aura in your house, and there is a possibility of leakage, and you have already prepared that I will follow the demon qi to track it down."
"You tremble your hands and write the words 'Beloved Wife' on the tablet, binding the soul that should have died here."
"You show the love of your husband and wife, yin and yang, and reluctance, in order to make me feel compassion for you."
"You made me mistakenly think that the source of this demonic energy is the spirit rhino incense candle, but under this ancestral hall, there is a bigger secret."
Pei Jiuzhi calmly revealed the intentions and secrets of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
The crown prince looked at him, his gaze was dead silent, and he said, "Jiuzhi, you are joking. β
"Brother Huang, you know, I'm never joking." Pei Jiuzhi stood there, like a cold snow-capped mountain pressed down.
Even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not have any intention of resisting and struggling in front of him.
He didn't defend again, but just asked, "Jiuzhi, how did you find out?" β
"The demonic aura of that day was too strong and too evil, and it was impossible for the imperial sister-in-law to exude such an evil aura."
"It's a demon and an evil spirit, Jiuzhi, you still didn't trust me at first, so you had such a guess."
Pei Jiuzhi thought that he had never sensed any evil qi in the little monster of Usu.
"You assassinated General Bai because you couldn't find any loopholes in the imperial sister that could be exploited, and you think that her only weakness might be him."
"You hope to convict General Bai to pull the imperial sister into the water, so as to stabilize your position, for this reason, you have made all preparations, and even use the incense that confuses people's minds on General Bai."
"I came to the Prince's Mansion that day, and said in advance that the imperial sister was going to reconcile with General Bai, and before seven days later, you would preemptively attack and blame General Bai for all the disasters before they were completely cut off."
"That's right, right?" Pei Jiuzhi asked, his emotions were calm from beginning to end.
It's just that the anger that is about to explode is hidden under the snow-capped mountains that are about to collapse.
The prince smiled at him, and he said to Pei Jiuzhi with some mockery.
"Jiuzhi, said so much about other people, why...... Why don't you avenge yourself first? β
"I didn't expect you to ...... It is really stupid to fall into the red dust because of that fragrance. β
Usu, who was hiding in the veil, immediately became alert, and she knew what the prince was talking about.
That scene completely brought her and His Royal Highness together...... Accidentally.
Chapter 54: Fifty-Four Points of Light
The prince stared at Pei Jiuzhi, and from his perspective, the flawless moonlight fell behind him.
