Xiao Yu didn't wait long before he saw the second prince walking in the direction of the eldest prince. At this time, the only one who could notice this scene was Xiao Yu, a person with a heart, he hurriedly followed, intentionally or unintentionally standing aside to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two, and the two of them put on a scene of brotherhood and courtesy.

"Brother Huang is well!"

"Second Emperor Brother, I heard that the Buddha and Willow swordsmanship taught by the National Teacher is outstanding, and I will definitely ask you for advice later. ”

"Where, the Liuhe swordsmanship of Xishan Academy is also one of the best, and I will ask the emperor's subordinates to show mercy later, let's compete second, friendship first. ”

"Oh, by the way, Brother Huang, I don't know something, and I ask Brother Huang to solve my doubts. ”

The eldest prince Xi Qin smiled indifferently, his eyes glanced at Xiao Yu on the side intentionally or unintentionally, his eyes were full of doubt, but he said: "Second emperor brother, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"The day before yesterday, the steward of your house Cui found me and asked for my birthday, saying that the imperial brother wanted to prepare a congratulatory gift for his younger brother, what kind of congratulatory gift does he need for his brother's birthday?"

The eldest prince suddenly realized: "This matter, Cui Yuan told me, saying that he created a dark iron sword in the refining and foundry, if you can engrave the birthday of the sword holder on the hilt, you can protect the master." ”

Xi Chu wanted to say something more, Xiao Yu was already impatient, when would it be possible to do something like this. So he walked a few steps to the second prince and said, "Second prince, it's your turn soon, oh, this must be His Royal Highness the Great Prince, right?"

When Xi Chu saw that it was Xiao Yu, he immediately greeted: "It turns out to be Mr. Xiao, Brother Huang, this is Mr. Xiao from my Western Academy, Mr. Xiao's attainments in divination can be described as unfathomable, which makes my brother admire." ”

When the eldest prince heard this, he suddenly lost interest, but he still said politely: "Look up for a long time." ”

Xiao Yu also responded with a smile and politeness, and then looked at the second prince and said, "When I was teaching yesterday, I saw that you looked preoccupied, but what difficulties did you encounter?" Or did the second prince have doubts about the lesson I taught yesterday?"

As soon as Xiao Yu reminded him, Xi Chu immediately expressed his worries.

"Sir, is it appropriate to engrave your birthday on the sword?"

Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment, and said with some hesitation: "The eight characters of a person's birth date represent a person's numerology, good luck, and are generally engraved on some things with good luck, such as jade pendants, lucky bags, etc., which are engraved on the sword, which is really inappropriate, just like adding people to the fire and roasting them." The sword is a murder weapon, the main killing, I don't know who is so lacking in virtue, he actually engraved the eight characters of a person's birth date on the sword, is it because this person died not fast enough? ”

Xiao Yu said as he looked at the faces of the two princes with his spare eyes.

I saw that the second prince of Western Chu became whiter and whiter the more he listened, and he looked like he was about to faint if he couldn't bear it, while the eldest prince of Western Qin became darker the more he listened, and when Xiao Yu finished speaking, he was already angry.

"Hmph, nonsense, second emperor brother, this is the person you highly admire? Superstitious words, don't listen to them. ”

After saying that, the man had already brushed his sleeves away.

Looking at the eldest prince who was angry and left, Xiao Yu looked at Xi Chu in confusion and said, "Second prince, why is this?"

Xi Chu looked at the back of the eldest prince and gritted his teeth for a long time, and only thanked Xiao Yu after a while: "Thank you, Mr. for solving your doubts, Xi Chu still has to prepare for the competition, so I will leave." ”

When the people left, Xiao Yu slowly flicked the non-existent dust on his sleeves, the corners of his mouth curled, revealing an evil smile, and said secretly: Don't worry, tomorrow is the main event.

This exchange is mainly based on martial arts competitions, and Xiao Yu has never practiced internal strength, so he is not very interested in martial arts in the mortal world.

Until the competition between the two princes, the second prince was fierce at the beginning, which was very different from the Buddha willow swordsmanship he practiced, the Buddha willow swordsmanship was elegant, elegant, and weird, but at this time, the second prince Xi Chu was angry in his heart. The eldest prince really didn't have a good heart and wanted to kill him, so he made a fatal move.

This scene was seen in the eyes of everyone, all of them were confused, and at the beginning of the month, they caught a glimpse of Xiao Yu not far away, and their eyes signaled whether the matter was done, and Xiao Yu replied with a reassuring look.

The communication between the two is also very simple, because they have a heart-to-heart connection, and they can understand each other's meaning with one look.

"Brother Huang, concede!"

It wasn't until the second prince's last move to fly the sword in the eldest prince's hand that the competition ended.

was swept away by his younger brother in front of so many people, the eldest prince's face was a little unsightly, and he didn't even want the sword on the ground, so he turned around and left.

As soon as the eldest prince left, Xiao Yu was even more lazy to watch the next competition.

After dinner, Xiao Yu began to descend. The incense and bathing ritual he talked about in the school room was nonsense, it was just a manifestation.

Xiao Yu took out the peach wood doll with the eight characters of the second prince's birthday, and found a silver needle out of nowhere, Xiao Yu read words in his mouth, and poked the index finger of his right hand, and then wrote and drew behind the peach wood doll.

When everything was ready, Xiao Yu used a silver needle to pierce the back of the peachwood doll's earlobe, which is also a person's sleeping acupoint.

Strange to say, the blood smeared on the back of the mahogany doll slowly pooled in a strange form towards the silver needles until it all penetrated.

Xiao Yu's eyelids jumped at the beginning of the month, if this little ghost has a bad idea one day, and he also stabs his own villain, it is really impossible to prevent it!

For the sake of safety, Xiao Yu was reminded at the beginning of the month.

"Hmph, this kind of thing is really not done by a gentleman, and it is better to use it less in the future. ”

Xiao Yu didn't understand what she meant, but she still nodded honestly. After pulling out the silver needle, Xiao Yu handed the peach wood doll to Qing Yue and said, "Chu'er, send this peach wood doll into the Great Prince's Mansion, keep it secret, don't let people find out all at once." ”

When Xiao Yu entered the school room the next day, he disappeared from the second prince, Xi Chu.

"The third princess, what about the second prince?"

"Sir, the imperial brother has contracted a cold today and is recuperating in the house. ”

Xiao Yu understood, and after sitting down, he began to teach: "Today I will tell you about Xia Gu, what is Xia Gu...."

For three days in a row, Xiao Yu had never seen the second prince appear, and today, even the third princess did not come, presumably the matter of the second prince had already alarmed the royal family.

But just as Xiao Yu thought, the second prince suddenly fell unconscious, and the imperial doctors in the palace came and went, batch after batch, but they couldn't see any clues;

In addition, Chu Guifei, the mother of the second prince, cried in front of His Majesty the Emperor every day for the past three days, which made Long Yan even more angry and ordered a thorough investigation.

How could a good person suddenly be in a coma for three days?

The dormitory of the second prince Xichu was full of people, His Majesty the Emperor, the Empress, the Imperial Concubine, the Third Princess, plus the imperial doctors and ministers and palace maids who came in and out, there were hundreds of people.

It wasn't until His Majesty the Emperor ordered another imperial doctor to be executed that the whole dormitory was very depressed, and everyone trembled, lest they might anger the angry man.

The third princess Xiling, usually won the emperor's heart and was favored, but this time she didn't dare to step forward, among the many princes and princesses, the second prince Xichu usually had the best relationship with her, and at this time, seeing the appearance of the imperial brother, she was also very anxious.

It's just that she was sleepy, her face was ruddy, and she had no symptoms, all of which added up to make her suddenly remember the decline in divination that Xiao Yu talked about a few days ago.

The decline has been seen since ancient times, especially in the royal family, but because of this, the decline has been listed as a taboo in the royal family, and if you touch it, you will die, and you don't even want to mention it.

The more Xi Ling thought about it, the more he felt that it might be like this, but he was worried that he would be punished by his father if he raised it rashly, and when he was hesitating whether to say it or not, Chu Guifei on the side suddenly fainted.

This time it was even more troublesome, although it was only temporarily anxious after being diagnosed by the imperial doctor.

It is precisely because of this that the third princess Xi Ling made up her mind and said: "Father, there is something unknown about my daughter. ”

"Say!"

"A few days ago, my brother and I were attending a lecture at the academy, and the course taught by Mr. Xiao happened to be the descent in divination..."

Without waiting for the third princess Xiling to continue, Xi Ze's face turned pale, staring at the third princess, but he didn't say a word.

Frightened, Xi Ling quickly knelt down, and weakly explained: "Mr. Xiao was specially invited by the dean to teach a divination class..."

At the mention of the beginning of the love month, Nishizawa's face softened.

"Is that true?"

"It's true, if your father doesn't believe it, you can go and investigate. ”

"Okay, since you are a national teacher, I believe it, you continue. ”

"Yes, according to the homework taught by Mr. Xiao, only after the decline has the symptoms the same as the imperial brother, so the imperial doctor can't see the clues. ”

When Xi Ze heard this, his brows tightened, and he said for a long time: "Then Ling'er, do you have a way to save you?"

Xi Ling shook his head and said, "Mr. Xiao didn't talk about how to solve it, but Mr. said that only people who know divination can solve it." The daughter has only learned a little bit and does not dare to solve it for the royal brother. ”

"Are you sure it's Chu Er's Descent Technique?"

Xi Ling hesitated: "My daughter is not sure, if she invites Mr. Xiao to come, she will definitely be able to see if the imperial brother has been surrendered." ”

It's been three days, and all the imperial doctors can't see any symptoms, which means that Xi Chu is not sick, so he can only let that Mr. Xiao come and give it a try.

Thinking of this, Nishizawa spoke: "Come on, go and invite Mr. Xiao from the Western Academy." ”

“.....”

Xiao Yu had just finished his schoolwork, and before he left the door of the school, he saw the nursing home rushing towards him with a minister.

Xiao Yu knew that the secret path was finally here.

When they got closer, the courtyard pointed to the minister and said, "Mr. Xiao, this is Gonggong Wu, on the order of His Majesty, I have come to invite Mr. Xiao to go to the Second Prince's Mansion." ”

Xiao Yu pretended to be puzzled and said, "I haven't seen the second prince for a few days, but what happened?"

The Gonggong Wu took over and said, "His Royal Highness the Second Prince has been in a coma for three days, and His Majesty has sent a servant to invite Mr. to come over and take a look." ”

"Since it is His Majesty's will, let's go. ”

followed Gonggong Wu to the second prince's mansion, and the eyes of the little palace maids who rushed by by were straight.

They had never seen such a fairy-like man, and it wasn't until Wu Gong publicly reprimanded them that they came back to their senses, although they ran away, but when Wu Gonggong couldn't see it, they stopped again, pointing at Xiao Yu's back and talking about it.

Entering the dormitory, the third princess was the first to see Xiao Yu, and she was immediately excited, pulled Xiao Yu's sleeve and said, "Sir, you are finally here, come and see if my imperial brother has been dropped?"

"Ling'er, born as a princess, what kind of body is so frizzy and irritable!

Xi Ze was angry, his first reaction when he saw Xiao Yu was to think of the national teacher, the temperament on Xiao Yu in front of him was the same as the national teacher, he must be a master of the world with an extraordinary background.

In the future, I will be on an errand under this emperor, it is better to be polite, thinking of this, Xiao Yu clasped his hands together, but did not kneel, just bent down and said, "I have seen Your Majesty." ”

The royal family attaches great importance to etiquette, and when he sees the Son of Heaven, he has to bow down, but Xiao Yu not only does not, but even his tone is smooth and soothing, but it gives people the illusion that it is very reasonable and appropriate.

"Sir, please see if Chu'er has been framed by someone and fallen for that vicious descent. ”

Xiao Yu smiled slightly, rolled up his sleeves and came to the second prince's bed, pretended to check it, and then said: "The second prince has indeed been hit by the descenting technique, and it is also a life-threatening blood curse, if you are hit by this blood curse for more than seven days, you will lose blood all over your body and become a dry corpse." ”

"Huh?"

"Oh my God, who is so vicious!"

"It's scary!"

For a while, there was an uproar in the entire dormitory, and those palace maids and ministers were even more frightened.

Nishizawa was in a hurry, and he couldn't care about anything, so he begged: "Since Mr. can see the symptoms, there must be a way to save him, and please ask Mr. to save my son's life." ”

"Your Majesty, don't worry, fortunately, today is only the third day, as long as I bathe the second prince in the next three days and get rid of the filth, I can open the altar to rescue. ”

"Oh, by the way, Your Majesty, this blood curse is extremely vicious, I wonder if you have found the person who cast the curse? ”

"No, please advise me. ”

Xiao Yu pondered for a moment before saying: "The descent generally requires a person's birth date, and then the birth date is pasted on the wooden doll or rag doll prepared in advance before it can be lowered. ”

Xiao Yu clicked to the end, presumably with the emperor's ability, he would soon be able to find out where the eldest prince was, and then he would wait to see a good show.

"Come on, thoroughly investigate all the people who have been close to the second prince recently, especially those who have inquired about the birth date of the second prince, I don't believe it, I dare to do such a vicious thing at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and I will find out all over the imperial capital. ”

The blood splashed five steps in a rage, and the anger of the Son of Heaven ambushed millions of corpses, although it was not so exaggerated, but under Nishizawa's anger, the entire emperor trembled. Especially those who have approached the second prince in the past month, all of them have been put in prison.

But the Western Academy is an exception, because the Western Academy was founded by the national teacher, and whoever the national teacher is, it is the person who assisted the emperor's grandfather to ascend the throne.

Soon, the Criminal Department found the eldest prince, and the reason was very simple.

First, the hunt is about to begin, the eldest prince and the second prince are both candidates for the crown prince, and now that the second prince has been framed, the eldest prince is the first to bear the brunt of the suspicion.

Second, on the day of a simple exchange between Xili Academy and Xishan Academy, some people witnessed the conflict between the eldest prince and the second prince, especially the second prince at that time seemed to be wrong.

Third, Steward Cui in the Great Prince's Mansion happened to ask the second prince for his birthday on the pretext of congratulations, but when the people from the Criminal Department found out about the Grand Prince's Mansion, the Steward Cui committed suicide, which made people even more suspicious.

Combined with these three points, the people of the Criminal Department turned the whole Prince's Mansion upside down, and finally found the peach wood doll in the secret compartment of the Great Prince's study, on which the second prince's birthday was pasted.

The stolen goods were obtained, and the eldest prince was speechless.

Although the eldest prince is the most suspicious, but in the end it is the eldest prince, he has Zhang Song, the head of the Hanlin Academy, and Chen Hua, the general of the Zhenguo, etc., and a minister as a guarantee, Nishizawa finally weighed the pros and cons, so he could only temporarily ban his feet.

On the third day, Xiao Yu appeared in the Second Prince's Mansion on time.

At this time, in the second prince's bedroom, in addition to Xi Ze, the queen, the concubine and the third princess, there was also a white-haired old man, judging by his clothes, there should be no doubt that he was a royal doctor.

In front of the second prince's couch, there is a table on the table, and there are some utensils needed to open the altar.

These are all prepared at Xiao Yu's request, but they are all just tricks, and the most important thing is the peach wood doll.

"Sir, can you do that?"

Can Xi Ze not be in a hurry, tonight is the seventh day, if Xiao Yu can't surrender, won't his son become a dry corpse!

Xiao Yu nodded, picked up the peachwood sword on the table and pretended to make a few gestures, and then picked up the silver needle and pierced the index finger of his right hand again, the same as last time.

After the witch pattern was drawn, Xiao Yu used a silver needle to pierce the sleeping hole of the peach wood doll and draw out the blood inside.

A peach wood doll could still bleed, I had never seen such a terrifying scene, except for Nishizawa, everyone else in the dormitory was so frightened that their faces turned pale.

After the blood ran out, Xiao Yu put down the peach wood doll and came to the second prince's bed, and also pierced the second prince's sleeping hole with a silver needle.

It didn't take a few breaths to pull out the silver needle, but the second prince suddenly coughed, and the person quickly woke up. Just lying down for a few days without moving, plus only eating some liquid food, the person looks very weak.

"Where am I?"

The second prince's eyes were blank, and his brain was a little dull, until he saw Xi Ze, he didn't react, and he was about to get up and salute, but was pressed back by Xiao Yu.

"The second prince is weak, and he has to recuperate for a few days before he can get out of bed. ”

Seeing that the person had woken up, Xi Ze hurriedly pointed at the white-haired old man and said, "Imperial Doctor Wang, let's see how the second prince is?"

"Yes!"

Xiao Yu knew that the emperor was still not at ease, so he consciously got up and gave way to the old man.

After the royal physician finished checking the pulse and confirmed that he was fine, he said to Nishizawa: "Your Majesty, the second prince is just a little weak as Mr. Xiao said, and has no other symptoms. ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, especially the second prince's biological mother, Chu Guifei.

"Thanks to Mr. for the rescue, my son can be safe and sound. ”

After finishing speaking, he was about to go to see the second prince, but Xi Ze stopped him: "Okay, it's okay if people are fine, what Chu'er needs most now is to recuperate, don't bother, after you are done, it will not be too late for your mother and son to talk again." ”

Out of the dormitory, Nishizawa said, "Mr. saved my son's life, come here, reward!"

Xiao Yu shook his head and refused: "The second prince and the third princess are all students of my Western Academy, and if the students are in difficulty, I will naturally not die as a gentleman, so there is no need for rewards." ”

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yu was so high-spirited, Xi Ze suddenly thought about it, so he asked tentatively: "Mr. Zhenguan has an extraordinary bearing, and he is a fairy figure like a national teacher, I don't know who Mr. and the national teacher are?"

"Oh, I've known Chu'er for almost two hundred years, so we're friends. ”

This is ambiguous, not only to bring the relationship with the beginning of the love month, but also to put aside the beginning of the love month, if something unpredictable happens in the future, it is better than not being implicated in the beginning of the love month.

But Xi Ze is different, the national teacher does not enter the court, he often regrets being the emperor, and now there is another Xiao Yu, this time he has to win over him no matter what.

"I have learned from Ling'er in the past few days that Mr.'s divination skills are unparalleled in the world. ”

came, Xiao Yu was secretly happy, and was thinking about what to do in order to imply that he wanted to be an official in the court, no, he was dozing and sent a pillow.

Xiao Yu looked at Xi Ze, just in time to meet the other party's expectant eyes.

Xiao Yu had no choice but to pinch his fingers and calculate.

After a stick of incense, he said slowly: "The fortune of the Western Calendar Country inherits the heavens, and the country is protected by the divine sword, and the national fortune will naturally prosper forever, but there is a big trouble in the West, and the slightest mistake will be a catastrophe." ”

Nishizawa was shocked and hurriedly asked, "According to Mr. Xi's words, but the demon beasts in the West are in trouble?"

Every ten years, a hunt is held in the Western Kingdom to defend against the invasion of demon beasts.

But it's been like this for thousands of years, and I don't see what those demon beasts are capable of.

Xiao Yu nodded, and decided to add another dose of fierce medicine and said: "These invading demon beasts are just ordinary demon beasts, in the 100,000 mountains outside the enchantment of the Western Calendar Kingdom, that is the real demon beast, flying away from the sky and omnipotent." If these demon beasts rushed into the Western Calendar Kingdom, even if it was the Protector Divine Sword, they would be helpless. ”

Even the Sword of the Protector can't protect the Western Kingdom, so what should I do?

"Sir, do you have a good plan to help me get rid of this trouble?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, they won't dare to come in, because this enchantment will weaken their abilities, but..."

At first, hearing Xiao Yu's words, Xi Ze was quite relieved, but Xiao Yu took a turn, hung his heart again, and said busily: "But what? ”

"However, although the enchantment cannot be broken for a while, I think the lifespan of this enchantment has reached the limit, if it is not repaired in time, I am afraid that it will break in a short time, and then those demon beasts will have no scruples at all. ”

Xiao Yu didn't lie, whether it was a formation or an enchantment, there was a life limit; although he didn't know how this enchantment was laid, as long as the materials for laying the enchantment were exhausted, the enchantment would be self-defeating.

"Please also ask Mr. to take action to save tens of millions of Li people in my Western calendar from fire and water. ”

Xiao Yu hesitated, and hesitated: "This is not an overnight thing, plus the materials that lay down the enchantment are not ordinary, and it is difficult to find them in the world, how can I do it with a teaching gentleman?"

When Xi Ze saw that Xiao Yu was hesitant, how could he have any other scruples, he immediately said: "I will make Mr. Feng the Heavenly Master of my Western Calendar Country, building an astrological platform, protecting the fortune of the country, and repairing the enchantment are all up to Mr. ”

Xiao Yu smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, you are embarrassing me." ”

"Sir, no, Xiao Tianshi, I thank you here for the people of the whole country!"

After speaking, he was about to bow down, how dare Xiao Yu let him salute, how to say that he is also the king of a country, and being able to do this step really moved Xiao Yu very much.

"Well, Your Majesty's love for the people can be seen day by day, and if I postpone it any longer, I will be an unrighteous person. ”
