"Since you said that his mother is like this, then it is likely that it was passed down from his mother's previous generation. Ye Zhi asked: "The life of the Queen Mother and the emperor, can you sort out a copy for us, and we can extract the cocoon and strip the silk from it?" If there is a situation of the Queen Mother's parents, please also give us a copy." ”

Rui Wang said: "Yes." The Queen Mother is a member of the ethnic minority in the west, does this death curse have anything to do with the magic in their clan?"

"Which ethnic group?"

"I don't know, I have to ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs for a record. ”

"There are as many as hundreds of ethnic minorities in the west, and each ethnic group has a different wizard and goddess, and whether there is any connection with it or not, we have to check it. ”

"I'll leave this matter to my younger brothers and sisters. ”

Everyone bowed their hands together: "It's what we should do." ”

Bai Yuelan coughed and asked in a low voice: "Senior brother, we are not outsiders, so Mingren doesn't say secret words, that, if the emperor dies, won't you have a better chance?"

King Rui closed his eyes for a while before he said, "I don't want the opportunity for my sister to say it." I just want him to live well...... If I can save the emperor, no matter what everyone asks, I will do my best. Even if it costs my life. As he spoke, King Rui bowed deeply to his younger brothers and sisters.

The junior brothers and sisters hurriedly returned the salute: "Senior brother is serious. We will do our best. "Since everyone is in the same family, and he is the most concerned relative of the master, as long as it does not violate morality, he will definitely help to the end.

Ye Zhi paused for a moment and made a request: "Senior brother, there is a small matter that you need to deal with." ”

"You say. ”

"Among the people who entered the palace together, there was a man named Liu Hua. ”

"What's wrong with him?" asked King Rui. Obviously, he didn't remember that during the scientific examination hall many years ago, he drove a candidate with the same name out of the hall.

Ye Yi saw it and understood that he had no impression of this person, anyway, that sour literati couldn't make any waves, so there was no need to cause unhappiness to the senior brother. But if he was nearby, it would not be convenient for them to act, so Ye Zhidao: "He is just an ordinary person who helps us cover up the identity of a cultivator, but he is here, and it is not so convenient for us." So please transfer him to the Internal Affairs Office, let a clever little eunuch look at him, and say that you will ask the master to help him sort out and copy the dossier of the palace to make bamboo and wood crafts. ”

"It's easy to do. ”

---

With the help of Xiao Jingzi's father-in-law, the next day, King Rui transferred Liu Hua away, and transferred all the records of the Internal Affairs Office.

Ye Zhi looked at the life record of the Queen Mother, and summarized it for everyone: "The Queen Mother's name is Luli, her surname is Gudaa, she is the noble daughter of the Qiang tribe in the west, and she was dedicated to the second prince at that time, that is, the former emperor as his wife, and her status was not high, but as soon as Jin Ruikai was born, she was raised to be a wife. Because, although the Jin family is good at governance, they are not good at giving birth to sons, and they have always been not prosperous, and the first emperor has two brothers and a younger sister, that is, the eldest princess. In the emperor's generation, there are even fewer people, the original eldest prince has no queen, and the eldest princess did not give birth to a child with General Zhennan. In other words, the emperor not only has no brothers, but also no cousins and cousins who are really close in blood. ”

Bai Yuelan had an inexplicable affection for the emperor that Liu Hua hated because of her disgust with Liu Hua, and she said sympathetically: "The royal family is no better than ordinary people, the emperor has no friends, and now it seems that he even has few relatives, and he is really lonely." ”

Ding Rong also concluded: "In general, there is only one single seedling left in their Jin family's direct royal family, and I heard that he has no queen, and he is not far from extinction......"

"If he is cursed to death, Senior Brother can be the emperor, but he is not interested, he regards power as dung, and he really has the backbone of our Hanshan Sect!" Xiang Nan said.

Qu Linghan: "Moreover, Senior Brother seems to value the life of this distant cousin more than himself. ”

Ye Zhi nodded: "Let the senior brother be happy, this is the master's greatest wish." Then we will bring the emperor back. ”

Qu Linghan asked Ye Zhi, "Do we need to tell Master about Senior Brother?"

"It certainly can't be hidden. I have already sent a letter to Master. "The Way of the Leaves.

Ding Rong is still reading the royal family genealogy, and Bai Yuelan and Xiang Nan have already begun to look through the relevant documents of the Qiang tribe.

After reading it for a while, Bai Yuelan looked up from the book and said, "It's so strange......"

"What's strange?" everyone gathered around.

"The first strange thing is that although the Qiang people are an ethnic minority, their eyes are black or brown, and their hair color is also the same, so they look very little different from the people of Dajinguo. If I'm not mistaken, the emperor has blue eyes, and I heard that the queen mother is too, and they are different from the clansmen. Bai Yuelan said.

Ding Rong looked up from the book and admired with emotion: "Xiaobai, you are so careful." ”

Bai Yuelan said embarrassedly: "I just think the emperor's eyes are very beautiful, so I looked at it twice and was deeply impressed." ”

"Is there anything else strange?" Ye Zhi asked.

According to the document, the Diqiang people were killed by wizards and witches a hundred years ago because the royal family was very disgusted with witchcraft and expelled all wizards and witches. In other words, it was not the wizards of the Qiang tribe who cast the death curse. Bai Yuelan explained.

Qu Linghan frowned: "That's not easy to check, there are dozens of large and small ethnic groups around the Qiang clan, and the witchcraft of other clans is very large." ”

Xiang Nan pouted and complained: "I knew this would not be an easy job......"

Others can only start to seriously consult the information.

Ye Zhi approached Ding Rong and asked, "What are you looking at?" are you still watching the secret gossip of the royal family?"

"There's a side to it. Ding Rong flicked his men's record book.

Everyone looked at her and waited for her to explain.

"Is the mother of the senior brother really Princess Wu? It can be recorded here that Princess Wu is a lady from a wealthy family and does not leave the house. How can you have time to wander around without leaving your home, and still meet Master and become your own son? That will take a long time. Ding Rong said: "I just found out that someone stayed abroad for two years before returning to China, which met the gap at the time point, so I turned around to inquire about Princess Wu." ”

They asked, "Who?"

Ding Rong: "The eldest princess Jin Leyin." She should be the biological mother of the senior brother, and the woman who once married the master. ”

Ye Zhi: "Why did she put her son under the name of other cousins?" Could it be...... Let the senior brother change his surname to Jin, it will be easier to get closer to the throne?"

Ding Rong said: "In this way, he doesn't want to be the emperor, but the woman who abandoned her husband and children may not want to be the queen mother!"

Ye Zhiye continued: "Moreover, even if the eldest princess doesn't want to be in power, but her husband, that Zhennan general may not want to?"

Thinking of this chaotic power relationship, the brothers and sisters felt that it was too troublesome and tiring. In the struggle for power, where can we catch up with the cultivation of a pure heart and be comfortable?

Bai Yuelan frowned her little face and demanded, "Senior brothers, I want to go back......"

Xiang Nan immediately agreed: "The flower world outside is beautiful, but it is too complicated and dark, so it is not as good as our free and easy spiritual life in the North Island." ”

Qu Linghan and Ding Rong also nodded.

Ye Zhidao: "You can't give up halfway, junior brothers and sisters." After we helped the elder brother, we went back to the island. ”

Everyone started looking through the information again until late at night.
