Chapter 81: Two Minutes and Two Solstices (1st Update)

The East Palace is where the prince lives, but ...... Why is the purple spirit bead in the East Palace?

A trace of curiosity crossed Chu Duan's heart, but he didn't express this doubt.

"Why did the Purple Spirit Bead manifest?" Fu Chu asked curiously.

"The purple spirit bead is extremely spiritual, once it perceives its master, it will manifest, plus today's spring equinox-" Chu Qize said this, and couldn't bear to pause slightly: "The transformation of the two equinoxes to the four seasons is extremely powerful, plus the spirit bead has already sensed its master, so it will manifest." โ€

Equinoxes to great energy......

As soon as Chu Qize said this, Fu Chu seemed to think of something, and his eyes couldn't help but tighten.

The little hand subconsciously covered the crook of his arm, and a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes - what was wrong with the mark on the crook of his arm yesterday, and it was also related to this solar term?

However, after thinking about it for a while, Fu Chu dispelled this idea again, if this mark is related to the dichotomy and two, then why didn't there be any reaction before?

Could it be ...... Because of the Purple Spirit Bead?

As soon as she thought of this, Fu Chu's eyes flashed with a flash of light, she subconsciously raised her eyes, and her gaze fell on Chu Duan's body.

Chu Duan also noticed Fu Chu's gaze, and looked at each other, and after a while, Chu Duan moved his gaze to Chu Qize's body: "In other words, the owner of the Purple Spirit Bead is in the palace?"

After finishing speaking, Chu Qize nodded silently.

A few people also stayed in Chu Qize's house for a long time, and before they knew it, the sun was slowly setting in the west.

It's an ordinary evening, but it seems to be different from the previous one - the sky at this moment is as if it is red with blood, which makes people feel a little oppressive.

As soon as Chu Duan pushed open Chu Qize's door, he felt a strong evil aura.

Abnormal โ€“

Chu Duan subconsciously tightened his brows, he looked around vigilantly, but he didn't find anything unusual.

Fu Chu obediently stood beside Chu Duan, and after the air was quiet for a moment, a light laugh came from behind him.

It was Chu Qize who laughed.

That smile was a little meaningful, so that Fu Chu couldn't bear to look back at Chu Qize.

At this moment, there was still a hint of a smile in Chu Qize's deep eyes, he looked up at the sky, and his thin lips lightly opened: "This palace, it's finally abnormalโ€”โ€”"

After finishing speaking, Chu Duan withdrew his gaze looking at the sky, he looked thoughtfully at the empty scene in front of him, and then turned around, and when he looked at Chu Qize, his clear eyes were also dyed with an unpredictable smile.

Looking at Chu Duan's appearance, he seemed to understand what Chu Qize was saying.

"Everything that happened next, I don't know if someone deliberately pretended to be a ghost, or if it was really a ghost-" After the air was quiet for a moment, Chu Qize spoke again with interest.

......

In the next few days, it was a rare peaceful few days in the palace.

The weather is gradually warming, and it is rare for the saint to be free, so he made an appointment with Chu Du and them, saying that he wanted to take them around the palace.

"I've worked hard for you these past few daysโ€”" The emperor said leisurely.

"It's not hard. Chu Duan replied respectfully.

After Chu Duan finished speaking, as if he suddenly thought of something, he tightened his eyes slightly, and then couldn't help but look towards the emperor.

The emperor noticed Chu Duan's gaze, he turned his head and looked at Chu Duan curiously: "Does Daoist Chu have anything to say?"

After the emperor's words fell, Chu Duan smiled indifferently: "Sure enough, I can't hide it from Your Majesty's eyes." โ€

"But it doesn't hurt to say that. โ€

As soon as the emperor said this, Chu Dui seemed to be relieved in his heart, and after a slight pause, he said solemnly: "I don't know if Your Majesty can know that the palace maids frequently hanged themselves in the pastโ€”โ€”"

"I've heard of it. โ€

After the air was quiet for a moment, the emperor's voice rang out again: "Isn't it caused by ghosts? But I haven't heard of it anymore recently......

After finishing speaking, Chu Duan couldn't help but laugh softly, he lowered his eyes and pursed his lips slightly: "This matter has also been investigated by Weichen, but I am afraid that it is not caused by ghosts, but someone deliberately pretending to be a ghost-"

As soon as Chu Duan said this, the emperor's eyes couldn't help but climb with a sense of surprise: "How can you say this?"

"The corpses of those palace maids have also been seen by Weichen before-there is no evil spirit. After Chu Duan finished speaking, he paused for a moment, as if to leave time for the emperor to digest what he had just said: "Weichen has lived in the palace for so long, but the strange thing is that there is no evil spirit in the palace. โ€

After speaking, the emperor didn't say much.

After a moment of silence in the air, Chu Duan walked up to the emperor respectfully, bent down slightly, and said, "Regarding this case, please also ask Your Majesty to hand it over to the Criminal Department for handling." โ€

"Then according to what you say, there is nothing unclean in the palace?" Seeing Chu Duan say this, the emperor couldn't help but stop and asked seriously.

When the words fell, Chu Duan still bent down slightly: "Not before, but after the spring equinox, there is a demonic aura, but Your Majesty rest assured, we will solve this matter." โ€

As soon as Chu Duan said this, the emperor's serious expression was slightly soothed: "Then there is also Lao Chu Dao Chang." โ€

As he spoke, the emperor helped Chu Duan up.

Fu Chu looked at Chu Duan and the emperor, and he couldn't find a chance to speak for a while, so he had to obediently follow aside and be a little follower.

However, as soon as Chu Duan straightened up, he felt the sound of rustling from among the grass.

The sound was fast, as if in the next second, something would fly out of the grass.

Chu Duan stood vigilantly in place, his sword eyebrows frowning slightly.

Suddenly, a small sound came into Chu Duan's ears, like the sound of a sharp arrow speeding through the air.

Chu Duan's eyes tightened, and he just caught a glimpse of a sharp arrow flying towards the emperor.

Of course, the same person who heard this voice was Fu Chu who was following him, however, before Fu Chu could react, Chu Dui's hands had already put on the emperor's shoulders, and the emperor turned around suddenly, and the next second, Chu Duan was in front of the emperor: "Your Majesty be careful-"

As soon as the words fell, a sharp arrow pierced Chu Duan's back.

Sharp pain suddenly hit Chu Duan's back, and then spread along the blood towards the surroundings.

At this moment, Chu Duan's always clean white robe also fainted with a layer of blood red.

The arrow pierced Chu Duan's back, making Fu Chu's whole heart tremble, her eyes widened in surprise, looking at the blood red that was getting bigger and bigger, and the whole person panicked: "Chu Duiโ€”โ€”!"
