Yu Dao Qiankun

Chapter 206 Exquisite jade carving

As the sky was getting darker, Yuan Qi came to the side hall of Wuhua Palace worried.

At the door, he straightened his clothes, weighed the bamboo tube in his sleeve, and crept inside.

When I came to the dormitory, I saw His Highness was sleepy, sitting in front of the mirror with disheveled hair.

Yuan Qi knelt down to pay his respects, and took out the latest information: "This is the pulse case just sent from Simu Palace."

When Peng Yu came back from the Linghuang Palace, he pretended to be just waking up, and waved his hand to take the bamboo tube over.

"Have you read the contents inside?"

His voice was slightly hoarse, he looked like he had just woken up with a dry throat, and his acting skills were perfect.

Yuan Qi hurriedly served him tea, carefully said: "Look...look."

"Then tell me. How is he doing?" Peng Yu put down the bamboo tube and casually looked at the tea stalks floating and spinning in the cup.

Yuan Qi looked down at his boots, and said in a low voice, "Third Young Master... Third Young Master, he still had a high fever last night and is still unconscious."

There was a harsh sound in the hall, Yuan Qi raised his head suddenly, but saw His Highness frowning, still sitting quietly.He picked up the tea cover with his hand, skimming off the tea foam little by little.

The little eunuch looked around, and suddenly there were a few slight meows.

Then, he saw a little black cat struggling to crawl out from the folds of Peng Yu's robe.

Peng Yu's white robe was trampled by the black cat, and plum blossom marks appeared one after another.

"Your Highness, who is this cat?"

"I picked it up casually. You don't let Gu leave the Wuhua Palace, and Gu raises cats here to entertain himself, and you also want to ask?" Peng Yu picked up the little black cat, and the black cat couldn't help reaching out to fiddle with it when it saw the bamboo tube.

So, Peng Yu stuffed the bamboo tube for it to play with.

Meow meow--

The little black cat meowed a few times, played with the bamboo tube on all fours, and rolled away from Peng Yu's arms after a while.

"Yuan Qi, go back and find a cattery, and find some food. You won't raise a cat alone, you have to report to the emperor, right?"

Yuan Qi smiled wryly in his heart, knowing that His Highness still hated himself and others for forcing him to move.

The Simu Palace has always been decided by Peng Yu. On weekdays, he put on an appearance of respecting his teacher and accepting advice humbly.But if he becomes stubborn, who can pull him back?

Only this time when something happened to Zhuanyang, everyone pressured Peng Yuqingxiu while reporting to Tiangong.The guards of Emperor Shenhuang and Marquis Yunyang had already taken over Dongkuayuan, making it difficult for even the people from Simu Palace to get close.

Outside the Wuhua Palace, the cronies sent by the Emperor had already taken over to prevent his son from being in close contact with Zhuan Yang, which would lead to smallpox infection.

In this regard, the Emperor of God issued a death order to sever the connection between the people of Simu Palace and Dongkuayuan.

Yuan Qi bought two young eunuchs to get Zhuan Yang's daily pulse case, which took a lot of effort and risked his life.

"Okay, Gu also knows that you are bothering." Peng Yu casually grabbed a handful of golden melon seeds from the ring and threw them to Yuan Qi: "Your reward. You must have spent a lot of money on buying the informant, right?"

Yuan Qi hurriedly said: "Everything is for His Highness, the little one should do his best."

"There's no need to talk about the scene. You should be clear about Gu's temper. Gu never cares about your small thoughts, as long as serious things can be done, everything is easy to talk about."

Who doesn't have any plans of their own?

Peng Yu didn't care about the selfish calculations of the people around him.

As long as they can serve themselves well, don't betray themselves, and let them find the Ten Commandments and leave smoothly, they can talk about anything.

"This time, you really paid a lot." Peng Yu mobilized the turbulent qi, and wisps of divine qi penetrated into Yuan Qi's body, washing the scriptures and cutting the marrow for him.

"Cultivate well, and the future will benefit you."

After sending Yuan Qi away, Peng Yu came behind the screen with the black cat in his arms.

Zhuan Yun clenched his fists, his eyes were red, obviously worried about his brother's safety.The box in front of him has been opened, revealing the Tianxin Magnolia inside.

"You don't have to worry too much, as long as you study the usage of this thing, it shouldn't be difficult to save him."

Peng Yu sat opposite him: "How is the research going?"

After the two got this thing, they couldn't wait to study it before leaving the Linghuang Palace.

But no matter how he looked at it, Peng Yu felt that it was just an ordinary jade carving, not a medicinal material at all.

The two researched to no avail. Seeing that the sun was about to rise, Peng Yu hurriedly took Zhuanyun back to the side hall of Wuhua Palace.He let Zhuan Yun continue to study, while he changed his clothes and pretended to be just waking up.

"There are no new discoveries. This thing is indeed like a jade sculpture, and it doesn't feel the slightest vitality at all."

Zhuan Yun looked up at Peng Yu and was startled suddenly.

The boy was wearing a loose white silk pajamas, with beautiful and exquisite cloud pattern patterns displayed on it with silver threads.As the boy leaned forward, the skirt of his clothes was opened, and the collarbone could even be seen.Moreover, there is a faint orchid fragrance.

Zhuan Yun rubbed his forehead, but the quiet fragrance became stronger and stronger, and from time to time, he could still hear the sound of Peng Yu knocking on the table.The sound was very rhythmic, like a lullaby.

Seeing Zhuan Yun's dazed look after being tricked, Peng Yu secretly made a victory gesture in his heart.

He asked softly: "What exactly did King Gaoyang leave in the underground palace?"

"A monument." Zhuan Yun subconsciously replied.But then, his face changed drastically.

Wan Dao Zixia burst into a rage, slapped Peng Yu with her backhand, and angrily said, "How dare you use the God-confusing technique on me?"

Peng Yu was not in a hurry, and the cloudy sky and stellar energy were intertwined above his head.

The exquisite and gorgeous transparent heavenly clothes slowly fell, wrapping Peng Yu in a strange space.

Qiankun Xianshu·Tianyi.

Madam Yunyang's original Qiankun Immortal Art.

Tianyi smashed away the dense purple air, and Peng Yu quickly manipulated the curse on Zhuan Yun.

Zhuan Yun's body froze, as if countless bugs were crawling on him, making him afraid to act rashly.

"Thousand Silkworm Evil Curse?" Zhuan Yun sullenly tried to steady his mind, turned his eyes away, and held his breath.

"I remember, this is the secret technique of His Majesty Linghuang."

"A little dabble." Peng Yu was very happy to see that he had controlled Zhuan Yun.

Finally gained the upper hand.

"Eldest son, let's talk honestly. Gu is very interested in that monument. Why does a monument make you risk yourselves to break into the Linghuang Palace?"

"..."

Zhuan Yun closed his eyes and tried to decipher the "Thousand Silkworm Curse".

When he and Peng Yu were walking last night, he secretly tried to undo all kinds of poisonous spells on his body, but with little success.

The current "Thousand Silkworm Curse" is also the same. It is operated by a strange force and it is difficult to excrete it from the body.

Peng Yu waited for a while, and then manipulated another poisonous curse.

This time, Zhuan Yun seemed to be in a world of ice and snow, and the biting cold froze every inch of his meridians.

The Zhuansun family is most afraid of the cold, and Zhuanyun is no exception even if he is cultivating immortals.

"Your Highness, can't we talk about these matters later? The most urgent task right now is to save Zhuan Yang."

"However, you can't find a use for this thing. You can only rely on other people."

Peng Yu picked up the Tianxin Magnolia and left, and soon came back again.

"Let Mr. Wang and the others study how to use this elixir. We can't help you right now, and Gu still cares more about your affairs."

"Why did you come to Linghuang Palace, where did you learn the innate qi in your body, why did you release water to Kunyu in the first place, what is your relationship, and..."

For Zhuan Yun, Peng Yu was wary but also curious.

This person is far more mysterious than his two younger brothers, and Peng Yu has countless questions about him.

Suddenly, Zhuan Yun interrupted: "Your Highness, do you know why His Majesty the Divine Emperor suddenly disliked the imperial concubine?"

What does it have to do with me?Peng Yu wasn't interested at first, but then he thought about it, as "Kunhao", if he wasn't curious about this matter, wouldn't it be inconsistent with his personality?

So, he stopped the spell punishment: "So, you want to use this information to make a deal?"

"No, it's just a delay. I can prove that I know a lot of secrets, and these secrets are what His Highness is curious about. For example, the truth of the Taiweijie incident."

"What are you going to say? Is it possible that you are going to admit that you destroyed Tianyin Blessed Land? You killed all the people including Xiaoyunyang Cave?"

Zhuan Yun's gaze changed: "So His Highness has already guessed it?"

Moreover, even know about Little Yunyang Cave?Did his brother tell him?

"It's not Zhuan Yang." Looking at his expression, Peng Yu guessed what he was thinking: "The past few decades have not been in vain, can't you check some things by yourself?"

"Little Yunyang Cave, Mrs. Yunyang, and Xuanniao's Clothes. If you want to check, the people below will naturally send the news."

"Does Zhuan Yang know that His Highness is investigating?"

"Gu is not stupid. He doesn't like outsiders to know the secrets of Zhuansun's family, so why should Gu rush to make a fuss?"

It's rare to be confused. Peng Yu understood this truth when he was very young on Earth.

Sometimes, even if you see something with your own eyes, you can't say it, you have to pretend you don't know it.

"Gu has a guess about the destruction of Tianyin Paradise. Are they related to Xiaoyunyang Cave?"

Zhuan Yun nodded: "The people in Xiaoyunyang Cave lived in Tianyin Blessed Land at that time, and they planned to join forces to assassinate Zhuan Yang. So, I took the lead first."

Meow--

The little black cat jumped onto Peng Yu's lap again and lay down lazily.

Peng Yu stroked the shiny cat's fur and fell into thought.

Tianyin Blessed Land and Little Yunyang Cave have nothing to do with him, and he doesn't care.He was more curious about one thing, whether the matter of Lijiacun should be revealed now.

But on second thought, he held back again.

Compared with Lijiacun, he was more curious about the dark threads in Taiwei Realm back then.

However, you can't believe everything this kid says, you have to be on guard.

"Tell me about the Taiwei Realm. There are some things there that Gu still can't figure out."

"Then let's start with King Xuanli. King Xuanli teamed up with someone outside the world to resurrect himself with the Nine-Headed Demon God Statue. For this reason, they created the 'Fate of Immortals' to attract all kinds of immortals to come."

"And I was entrusted by Kun Yu to go there to take care of the Fifth Prince and the Seventh Princess."

"Guard?" Thinking of the crisis that Yunzhou almost fell, the word "Guard" is quite interesting.

"That's right, it's taking care of me." Zhuan Yun sighed, "The Third Highness is worried about the safety of his younger brothers and sisters, so he asked me to take care of them to prevent them from getting involved."

"Hmph—Zhuan Yun, do you believe what you say? What kind of temperament is the third child in our family?"

Zhuan Yun sternly said in a solemn tone: "The Third Highness respects Confucianism, respects brothers, and cares for brothers and sisters. In addition, the Fifth Prince went to the Taiwei Realm, which was originally his suggestion. So, of course, he has to help with the aftermath."

Peng Yu thought for a while: "But I still feel that the incident of Yunzhou's almost falling has nothing to do with you."

"His Royal Highness's illusion."

"Forget it, let's not mention this. Let's talk about King Xuan Li. How much do you know about the identity of that outsider?"

"Longevity Ghost Emperor. Does Your Highness know this person?" Zhuan Yun said slowly: "He is the ancestor of the ghost way, the one who will open up a way in the future. The nine-headed demon god statue was given to King Xuanli by him. In addition, all walks of life The reason why the immortals gathered together is also related to him."

Longevity Ghost Emperor!

Peng Yu was silent when he thought of the mysterious man outside Tianhuo Pass in the Southern Territory.

A person who is proficient in all kinds of fairy arts, and even understands the magic of heaven and earth.If he is the Ghost Emperor of Longevity, then who was this "ghost" before he was alive?
Peng Yu had a guess about this, but he didn't dare to confirm it, nor did he dare to verify it.

Still that sentence, it's rare to be confused.

Anyway, the Changsheng Ghost Emperor didn't provoke him, and he didn't stop him from collecting rings, so why should he confront him?

It's just about the Taiwei world...

"Will Gu Smelting Taiwei Realm offend this ghost emperor?"

"It seems that His Highness really knows him?"

"I've heard it a little bit." Seeing that Zhuan Yun gradually regained his confidence, Peng Yu activated the poisonous spell again, wanting to seize control of the topic.

With a muffled snort, Zhuan Yun endured the tingling pain in his bones, and reluctantly said: "He won't care about such a small matter. The purpose of Changsheng Ghost Emperor is very clear from the beginning to the end—longevity."

"He wants to use the ghost way to achieve longevity. Apart from that, he doesn't care about other things."

"You know so much. When you were in Taiwei Realm, you had contact with him. Or are you also his? Your fairy art was also taught by him?"

"The Ghost Emperor Changsheng did teach me something." Zhuan Yun concealed the existence of the Demon Concubine, and deliberately obscured his inheritance.

"But I'm in Yunzhou, just an observer, and I don't need to really intervene."

Peng Yu recalled the events of the Taiwei Realm in his mind.Although it has been a long time, but when I think about it now, it is still vivid.If it is the ghost emperor of longevity who is behind it, it will be easy to explain.But this also indirectly supports one point - the possible identity of the Longevity Ghost Emperor.

Over the years, Peng Yu looked through the information of Taiwei Realm and discovered a very secret record.Emperor Ling had been to the Taiwei Realm before his death, and mentioned that there are monsters in the ground of the Taiwei Realm, and they should not be approached.

"If the ghost emperor is really related to the spirit emperor. Is he using the emperor spirit to pretend to be the ghost emperor? But it doesn't make sense. His tomb has such a strong resentment. It is clear that the emperor spirit has collapsed. But after the collapse, the emperor spirit can still exist. Can you transform into a ghost emperor?"

"Zhuan Yun, is your visit to Linghuang Palace related to the Ghost Emperor? Did he have any orders?"

"No. I did it voluntarily." Zhuan Yun looked at Peng Yu and said complicatedly: "Even if His Highness kills me, I can't tell you what's in the tomb. But I can only say that it has nothing to do with others that I sneaked into the Linghuang Palace , is my own idea, even my father doesn’t know about it.”

Even Marquis Yunyang doesn't know?So, it's not Zhuan Sun's idea, but Zhuan Yun's own plan?
"Your Highness wants to deal with me, so you can take your time when you turn around. But I think I am of great value to Your Highness."

"Then let's talk about the mother concubine and father emperor. Why did they fall out back then?"

"The second prince's mother and another concubine reported that the noble concubine was practicing witchcraft in the palace. The emperor was suspicious and went to investigate in person, not wanting to break it on the spot."

"The god emperor destroyed the altar in a fit of rage, and the imperial concubine suffered a backlash. She vomited three mouthfuls of blood, then returned to the palace and closed the door."

"Wait? Self-return? Wasn't she punished by the emperor?"

"That's how it was spread outside. But as far as I know, it was the imperial concubine who turned her back on the initiative, closed the palace gate by herself, and never saw the emperor again."

So, it's not that the God Emperor hates it, but that Concubine Zhao Gui doesn't want to see the God Emperor?
Zhuan Yun looked at Peng Yu and said with a smile, "In a short while, the imperial concubine will be gone. Your Highness, do you think the imperial concubine is really dead?"

Peng Yu's pupils shrank.

This is also one of the doubts in his heart.

Is the concubine dead?
If not dead, where is she?And as a mother, will she know that she is not her son?
As a person who seized his home, he always felt a sense of guilt when facing his original parents.

"You mean, she's not dead?"

"I don't know. His Majesty collected the concubine in person and put the coffin lid on with his own hands. If the concubine hadn't died, how could she have escaped the eyes of the God Emperor. Therefore, she must be dead."

"Resurrection from the dead?"

Zhuan Yun smiled and said nothing, apparently not intending to explain Peng Yu's confusion.

Peng Yu was annoyed for a while, and couldn't help activating a few poisonous spells.This time, it directly forced Zhuan Yun's chest to burst into blood, and his clothes were completely stained red.

The young man said coldly: "Since you refuse to answer, let's change the question. What exactly did the concubine's witchcraft do?"

"do not know."

"Ok?"

Seeing that he was about to activate the poisonous spell again, Zhuan Yun said helplessly: "I really don't know. The imperial concubine is a great sage of the devil, who is proficient in thousands of poisonous spells, and even has the inheritance of ancient witchcraft. If she wants to arrange the spell, who can pass it?" An altar that has been destroyed long ago, and a little clue to deduce the truth?"

The Emperor of God destroyed the altar with his own hands, and helped Concubine Zhao erase all traces of witchcraft.Even later, the Sixth Prince and the people around Zhao Guifei killed batch after batch.

No one knew what the imperial concubine was going to do back then?
"However, some outsiders have doubts. That spell may be related to lifespan."

"life?"

Zhuan Yun dipped in the tea and drew a spell.It was a very strange ghost drawing symbol, somewhat similar to the words on the base of the Nine Heads Demon God Statue.

"This talisman means 'birth'. This is also the only text that has been handed down after the God Emperor wiped out the traces."

pregnancy?Life, birth, growth, longevity, death, resurrection...

Peng Yu immediately thought of dozens of related spells in his mind.

Indeed, based on just a few clues, it is impossible to guess what the imperial concubine will do back then.

"What do you think? If you can satisfy Gu, I can stop torturing you today."

"I don't know either. But there was a saying back then that 'the imperial concubine fought with the Dragon Emperor and the Dragon Queen, and her lifespan was about to run out.'"

Hearing this statement, Peng Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly asked, "So, do you think that the mother concubine died of exhaustion of life energy?"

"It's possible. Otherwise, how do you explain that a majestic demonic sage suddenly disappeared when he was over 300 years old?"

If it is said that the noble concubine was injured in the rescue of the emperor, she must use this method to continue her life.As a result, the Emperor of God took the initiative to clean up the aftermath for her, which made sense.

And this guess can also explain another problem.The reason why the God Emperor prefers the sixth prince is probably because of his guilt.

But Peng Yu vaguely felt that although this statement could be justified, it always felt a little weird, as if someone spread it on purpose.There are hundreds of thousands of miles away from the truth, and he just turned his head around.

"Let's make Gu satisfied."

"Your Highness, if you're really curious, you might as well go to the underground palace below the Wuhua Palace to see if the imperial concubine is there?"

"..."

Peng Yu was about to speak when suddenly Wang Jian begged to see him at the door.

He went out and saw Wang Jian holding Tianxin Magnolia, and said pleasantly: "Why, Mr. Wang has already researched it, how to use this fairy grass?"

Wang Jian looked bewildered: "Your Highness, are you sure this is fairy grass and can cure smallpox?"

Peng Yu said firmly, "Naturally."

Linghuang's memory can't be faked, he did help King Gaoyang solve the smallpox back then.And the inheritance of King Gaoyang's lineage shows that this method is Tianxin Magnolia.

"Isn't it some kind of alchemist who deceived His Highness?" Wang Jian held a white magnolia flower, and Fox asked, "Isn't this just a jade carving? Although the thousand-year-old jade soul can be used as medicine to make alchemy, what does it have to do with smallpox?"

Peng Yu's face froze: "Yu Po?"

"Yes, Jade Soul. I was not sure at first, so I went to find other people to check it. After more than a dozen of us identified it, this is a white magnolia flower carved by a thousand-year-old Jade Soul. The jade age is more than 2000 years old."

"This jade is exquisitely crafted. It should be a treasure carved more than 1000 years ago. It is worth three thousand gold. It is well preserved and is a good collection. But——Your Highness, this thing can't cure diseases. Are you planning to cheer up Zhuan Yang?" , give me an antique?"

Is it really a jade carving?

Zhuan Yun hid behind and watched, completely confused.

According to the records of my ancestors, Tianxin Magnolia is indeed medicine!
The two stared stupidly at the white magnolia flower brought out from the Linghuang Palace.

So, what is the use of all their troubles in the Linghuang Palace?
