After the hero goes crazy

Although a rough plan was made hastily, when it comes time to implement it, everyone still needs to think and discuss again and again.

Perhaps it was the decree of Emperor Shenqi, Yao Hui heard the news, and went home once while handling the case.

He was in Gongmen, and the news he brought back was far more specific than the bulletin board in front of the city gate today.

When Yao Hui came back, it happened that Lu Zhi was leading someone to dismantle the coffin. Xu Xiangyi stood around the black coffin, reaching out to touch it from time to time, with surprise on his face.

"The prince is back." When Yao Hui saw Lu Zhi, his eyes lit up, showing joy.

Liu Shi has been injured for a long time. In order to save her life, Xu Xiangyi used spells to temporarily 'stall' her mind and body. In Xu Xiangyi's words, it was equivalent to 'freezing' Liu's soul and body.

There is an advantage in this way, Liu Shi will not feel pain when she loses consciousness, but at the same time, like a living dead, her body and consciousness seem to stay at the time when she was injured that day.

She didn't wake up for a long time. Although the wound didn't deteriorate, there was no sign of recovery. On the contrary, because she couldn't move for several months, her plump body quickly lost weight, leaving only skin and bones, and she looked extremely horrible.

Although in the process of taking care of her, Xu Xiangyi also used a large amount of panacea to maintain the vitality in her body, but it was only to save her life and could not meet her body's daily needs.

For Yao Hui, who was worried about his wife, Liu's situation was tantamount to tormenting his heart all the time, and he especially hoped to hear the news that the son returned with a 'coffin'.

But after he was happy first, he seemed to have thought of something, and was surprised again:
"How did you get into the city?"

He had obviously heard the news that Emperor Shenqi had sealed off the city gate, and at this moment he was worried about Lu Zhi's return.

"father."

While the two were talking, Yao Shouning and Liu Bingzhou came out of the room, and when they saw Yao Hui, they shouted.

Yao Hui nodded, and then seemed to think of something:
"Why are you at home?" He also knew that Yao's family would leave the city for refuge today, and Yao Shouning had decided to send his sister out of the city early in the morning.

His face was a little ugly, and he thought of the worst possibility:

"Could it be..."

"We couldn't go out of the city. My sister and cousin are taking care of my mother in the room."

Yao Shouning's words stopped Yao Hui's joy at the fact that his wife was saved, and he froze in place as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water on his head.

"When we were leaving the city, we happened to meet Cheng Fuyun."

She roughly told Yao Hui about today's situation:
"...It happened that the eldest son came back later, so I got out of trouble." After saying this, she asked curiously:

"Why are you home at this hour? Did something happen?"

"Correct."

Yao Hui wiped his face, unable to conceal the tiredness and anger on his face.

Since his reinstatement, he has been busy with things every day. Recently, the law and order has been disturbed, and cases have occurred frequently everywhere.

Ordinary civilians have nowhere to turn for help after being victimized, while merchants and government households are also frightened, and they often put pressure on the soldiers and horses.

He only went home to wash up last night, said a few words with his father-in-law, and then rushed back to the yamen.

If you are so busy, if you come back at this time, something big must happen.

Yao Wanning and the others in the room heard the commotion outside and followed them out. Seeing that the family members were all there, Yao Hui stopped playing around and said straightforwardly:

"The world is in chaos!"

"That one is already crazy." He shook his head:

"It is said that the authority of the Palace Town Demon Division is divided into two parts. The official position of some low-level personnel remains the same, but the official duties have been changed, and the name has also changed. They are called Assistant Demon Division; the other half is said to be headed by Feng Zhen. I don't know their missions, but I do know that Feng Zhen is now known as the Guardian of the Holy Martial Demon God."

"..."

His words made everyone stunned on the spot, speechless for a long time.

Judging from the official title, it is not good news, Liu Bingzhou's eyes darkened, and he suppressed his anger:

"What, what is the Guardian of the Holy Martial Demon God?"

Yao Shouning saw what happened in the palace last night through Cheng Fuyun's eyes. Liu Bingzhou already knew the emperor's idea of ​​seeking help from the monster clan and determined to coexist with the monsters, but his behavior of abolishing the Zhenmagic Division still made Liu Bingzhou a little unbelievable.

The existence of Zhenmasi was supported by Taizu 700 years ago. So far, the Daqing Dynasty has experienced 31 generations of emperors, and no one dares to touch this rule.

However, Emperor Shenqi not only abolished the existence of the Zhenmagic Division, but also changed the original Zhenmagic Division to the so-called "assistant demon division" and "demon protector". This is really an extremely rebellious behavior.

"It's just for assisting evil spirits." Seeing that the father-in-law's face was a bit ugly, Yao Hui gave a wry smile:
"You have also seen the list, but compared to the list, I may have got more detailed information." He wiped his face, and there were two fish bubble-like marks under his eyelids, showing his exhaustion at a glance:
"Early this morning, the Bingma Division received an admonition that evil spirits will live with people, and it is forbidden for officials, Taoists, common people, or others to hunt evil spirits. The emperor's newly established Assistant Demon Division is in charge of evil spirits. Disrespect will result in severe punishment.”

"..." Liu Bingzhou's eyebrows twitched.

Yao Hui continued:
"Other than that," he paused and lowered his voice:
"Emperor Shenqi allows the monster race to hunt."

When the words came out, everyone was shocked.

As we all know, 700 years ago, the monster race preyed on humans, and Emperor Shenqi allowed the monster race to hunt. Didn't he allow the monster race to kill at will in disguise?
"However, in order to protect the safety of all officials in Daqing, Emperor Shenqi made a safety order and temporarily issued it to courtiers loyal to him."

Having said that, Yao Hui stretched out his hand and shook it, and a pitch-black token slipped out of his cuff.

The token was about the size of a child's palm, and it looked like wood but not wood. There was a vague black air lingering on it, and Yao Shouning could smell a faint fishy smell.

"As long as you have this token in your hand, you can avoid the hunting of the monster clan."

"It's ridiculous."

Liu Bingzhou was extremely angry, but he was calm.

He shook his head:
"Taizu was a hero back then, but he didn't expect such a scum to appear among his descendants." He was a little frustrated:

"If I had known this earlier, I would have..."

He regretted that he saved Emperor Shen Qi's life yesterday under Chen Taiwei's hands.

If Emperor Shenqi died in the hands of Chen Taiwei, even King Daqing would fall into chaos, maybe the court officials would fight for power, and the city would be in chaos for several days, and many innocent people might die, but as long as the eldest princess returns, At that time, you will be able to clear the side of the emperor and be in charge of the court.

"I'm still too conservative, not decisive enough, and underestimated human nature."

He blamed himself in his heart, and his tone was heavy when he spoke.

Seeing his grandfather like this, Yao Shouning couldn't bear it, so he quickly comforted him:

"Grandfather, don't worry, you are only thinking about the overall situation, not out of selfishness."

Liu Bingzhou shook his head and said:

"You, Zhang Zuzu, said back then that I am more than conservative in character, less decisive, and act forward and backward, so I can't be a pioneer." He also understands this, so he has never dared to make mistakes for decades, strictly respecting history , I am afraid that something bad will happen.

The reason why he insisted on protecting Shen Qidi's life yesterday was because he was worried that Gu Huanzhi and Zhu Hengrui would not be there, and no one in Shendu would take charge of the overall situation.

The new king was young and fell into the hands of the Chu family. Chu Xiaotong was cruel and not a good person.

Once Emperor Shenqi died, there would be a bloodbath.

Recently, the capital city of God has not been peaceful. Before the evil disaster, the man-made disaster has already happened.

The law and order were in disorder, the etiquette collapsed, and the consequences were unimaginable. It was the people of Shendu City who suffered.

"At first, I just wanted to have me watching and hold on for a few days, until the eldest princess and the others return..."

He looked calm, but he must be feeling uncomfortable.

Liu Bingzhou has only made two claims since he peeked into history more than 30 years ago.

One is to remind the eldest princess how to restrain the blood mosquito Gu, and the other is to protect the life of God Qidi.

The former doesn't seem to be successful. After forcibly changing history, the blood mosquito Gu was not wiped out. Although most of the people who were bitten at that time were lucky enough to survive, but later the demonization killed a group of close friends by mistake. man of.

In addition, Emperor Shenqi beheaded many demonized people since then. Looking at it this way, most of these people still cannot escape death, which is like fate.

And the matter of protecting the god and enlightening the emperor did not bring much good rewards. The legal system of the capital of the gods has not collapsed yet, but the emperor willfully lures evil spirits into human beings.

"It's easy to invite a monster, but it's hard to send it away." He sighed a long time, the luster in his eyes dimmed, and he seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.

"Grandfather!"

Seeing him like this, Yao Shouning was worried that he would be depressed, so he immediately yelled at him.

Lu Zhi and the others didn't speak, and Yao Hui didn't know how to comfort the old man.

"Grandfather—"

"Don't worry." Liu Bingzhou smiled carefreely, and comforted Yao Shouning instead:

"Grandfather is so old that he can't get into a dead end and can't figure it out. I just regret that I did something wrong."

"People are not prophets, and every decision they make cannot be sure to be the best choice at the time." Yao Shouning did not want his grandfather to feel uncomfortable at this time, so he comforted him:

"Under that situation, the dilemma, no matter what you choose, it's not your fault." She said seriously:

"As you said, if Emperor Shenqi dies, there may be two possibilities. First, the young emperor will succeed to the throne safely, the Chu family will control the situation, and there will be no chaos in the city; but it is also possible that the Chu family will seize power first and take the opportunity Clean up the forces of Prime Minister Gu, the General's Mansion, and the eldest princess, and stabilize the situation in the capital first."

Once caught in the battle of royal power, who cares about the life and death of the people in the city.

"Since the evil spirits dare to appear at this time, it proves that they are confident and have made sufficient preparations. Maybe after today, either Emperor Shenqi will lead them into the capital of God, or the Chu family will lead them in to gain power."

"Maybe you make the opposite choice and the result will still be the same, and you will still regret that you didn't do anything."

Liu Bingzhou was stunned for a while, and then showed a thoughtful expression.

Yao Shouning stared at him nervously, and after a while, Liu Bingzhou smiled freely:
"It's my fault." After he finished speaking, he sighed again:

"Shouning is really sensible, and he will comfort his grandfather."

Everyone was worried that his Dao heart would collapse, but seeing that he had figured it out, they all heaved a sigh of relief and laughed.

Yao Hui also laughed and said:
"Shou Ning is really a lot more sensible." After the accident in her own family, she swept away her innocence and childishness in the past, and faintly became the pillar of her family.

Lu Zhi was also proud of Yao Shouning. Hearing everyone's praise, he nodded vigorously.

Everyone laughed, and the tense atmosphere relaxed a lot.

Liu Bingzhou also smiled, but after laughing, he looked at Yao Hui and said:
"Emperor Shen Qi did this clearly to use the evil spirits to concentrate power. After I see it, I'm afraid there will be a bloodbath."

In terms of governing the country, Emperor Shenqi can be called a foolish emperor.

But on the side of political struggle, Emperor Shenqi was extremely shrewd.

On the bright side, he overthrew the Zhenmagic Division, cooperated with the evil spirits, and allowed the evil spirits to hunt and hunt human beings. It seemed that he had used all his tricks and had already broken through the lower limit of the monarch, but in fact he could use the hands of the evil spirits to eradicate dissidents and even kill people. The courtiers who were not pleasing to the eye in the past were eradicated.

The power of evil spirits is far superior to that of ordinary humans. If you want to escape, you can only save your life by relying on the token issued by Emperor Shenqi.

In this way, as long as the ministers in the court are not those who regard death as their home, I am afraid that they will lean on the old emperor and obtain his protection.

In comparison, the existence of the young emperor Zhu Jingcun seemed extremely embarrassing.

Although he has a body protected by a dragon, he is still young and his foundation is shallow, and he can only rely on Gu Huanzhi for support. Now that Gu Huanzhi is not in Shendu, the young emperor himself is already alone. It is tantamount to being dead in name only.

"People in the General's Mansion and the Eldest Princess must be careful." Liu Bingzhou urged:

"I guess this wave of monsters won't hit civilians first." He regained his composure and analyzed rationally:

"Emperor Shenqi wants to promote the peaceful coexistence of humans and demons. At the beginning, he will first ask the demons to restrain themselves, so as to deceive people's hearts."

However, the monsters have a bad nature, and the lower monsters are bloodthirsty and brutal, so they may not fully obey them, so there were still some casualties in the beginning.

But over time, this situation will eventually be controlled by the big demon.

"On the contrary, Emperor Shenqi first wanted to eradicate dissidents, and he had great power in his hands. Then he would have the power of the monster clan by his side, and then he could do whatever he wanted. Therefore, the monster clan is the knife in his hand, and he is the first to attack. On the contrary, it will be dominated by the forces of Gu Huanzhi and the eldest princess."

Lu Zhi also knew it in his heart, and nodded when he heard the words:
"Don't worry, my mother is only staying in Jindi to deal with the aftermath. I estimate that it will take two or three days at the earliest, or seven or eight days at the slowest."

As long as the eldest princess returns, the general's mansion will be more powerful.

"Besides, my father is still in Shendu City. It is very difficult for the evil spirits to hurt him. As long as he stays steady, there will be no major casualties for the time being."

Liu Bingzhou nodded:
"Our name is not right now. If the eldest princess returns, it will be the Qing Dynasty's guide, the throne, and the elimination of evil spirits." There was murderous intent in his words, and Lu Zhi also understood what he meant, and nodded slightly.

His attitude also represented the eldest princess's attitude in a certain way, Liu Bingzhou couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw that he knew what he wanted.

Lu Zhi put it down temporarily, and Liu Bingzhou turned to look at Yao Hui:

"You came back just fine."

After finishing speaking, he told Yao Hui the news that Yao Shouning brought back today.

The demon king wanted to use the corpse of the royal family as a gu to nourish the whole body, so as to revive it. Perhaps the one who could restrain it was the girl Yao Shouning had predicted.

"Your position is convenient, and you are looking for someone. Let's split up."

Yao Hong responded, and Yao Shouning said:
"Father, I will tell you what I remember."

The two father and daughter walked to one side, and Yao Shouning described the situation of the foresight at that time in detail, fearing that the details would be missed, Yao Hui listened carefully, keeping what his daughter said firmly in his heart.

On the other side, Xu Xiangyi directed Hei Jia to place the coffin in a quiet place in Yao's house, guarded by Zhou Rongying and others, and cast Liu's body into the coffin.

……

This day is a very unforgettable day for the people of Shendu City.

On this day, the history of Daqing was overturned. The monsters that had disappeared for 700 years were revived and lived together with people.

Taoism, which has been sought after by Daqing for 700 years, was suppressed by Emperor Shenqi because of Chen Taiwei.

Within a day, the status of Taoist priests was overturned. From being respected in the past, after noon, all the avenues were blocked, and officers and soldiers could be seen on the streets arresting Taoist priests wearing shackles and escorting them back to the government...

Amid the cries, pleadings, and laughter from the Zhao family next door, Yao Shouning waited patiently for the night to come. She made an appointment with the crown prince to visit the emperor's tomb again.

……

Inside Yao Shouning's courtyard, Dong Kui carefully carried the small teapot and sat beside Yao Shouning:

"Miss, won't you sleep?"

The crisis was imminent, Liu Bingzhou did not hide the recovery of the 'River God' and the Demon King from those close to him, and Dong Kui naturally knew that Yao Shouning had something to do tonight.

She wanted to persuade Yao Shouning to sleep for a while, to recover his energy, so that he could move at night.

"Don't sleep."

Yao Shouning shook his head.

For some reason, she was upset.

It seemed that something big was about to happen, making it difficult for her to calm down.

What is the surprise?She frowned and took a storybook, hoping to calm down and clear her mind.

It can be very easy to make her calm and like the story, but it is difficult to attract her attention at this time.

She thought about it:

"Mallow helps me prepare pen and ink."

Mallow was a little surprised:

"Miss, do you want to write?" While speaking, she swiftly put away the things on the table and went to fetch pen and ink.

The Yao family provided for scholars, and the Liu family was also from a scholarly family, and she also attached great importance to her daughter's literacy. Yao Shouning also had a black paper and inkstone in Yao Shouning's room. He hugged a roll of paper and spread it out. After pondering for a moment, he dipped his pen into the ink.

The ink hadn't been grinded to a thick black, and the color was slightly lighter. After she dipped it, she drew a few strokes on the paper casually.

These few strokes are neither calligraphy nor landscape paintings. Mong Kui looked at them and saw that the lines were vertical and horizontal, gradually forming a rectangular frame.

Then Yao Shouning added a few random strokes on it, and Dong Kui felt strange:
"Ah, this..."

When she looked at the long frame, whether she looked at it horizontally or vertically, she always had the feeling that Yao Shouning was painting a 'coffin'.

But what's so good about a coffin?Dong Kui bit the corner of her lips, glanced at Yao Shouning, and saw that her brows were tightly wrinkled, her face was serious, her eyes were fixed on the drawing paper without blinking, her eyes were very focused, as if she had thought of something, and she already had eyebrows.

Dong Kui swallowed back the call that came to her lips, fearing that it would disturb Yao Shouning's train of thought.

Then Yao Shouning really drew a coffin, the coffin was pitch black and placed in the middle of the paper.

She held up her pen and stopped.

Only then did Mallow stop the action of rubbing ink, and rubbed her arm:

"Miss?" she whispered.

"Huh?" Yao Shouning replied, but his gaze was still on the drawing paper and he didn't leave it.

"Did you draw the Fushou coffin for your wife's recovery?"

"no."

Yao Shouning shook his head.

In the past, she was only blessed with her heart, painting at will, as if there was a consciousness guiding her in the dark, so that she could draw and paint by instinct, and then knew some important clues in advance.

"What I painted was not my mother's coffin."

Yao Shouning closed his eyes and said softly.

"I feel like something bad is going to happen."

But this time there was no sign of foretelling, she was a little impatient, guessing: tonight she will go out with the prince to rob the tomb, and draw the coffin, does it mean that this trip is not going well?
For the rest of his life, Yao Shouning did not have an answer to this question.

After thinking about it, she decided to follow her instinct and start looking for clues from the coffin she subconsciously drew.

Yao Shouning emptied his mind and froze for a moment, then he felt like he was in the painting again.

In the middle of the coffin, she suddenly wrote a large character 'Dian', and when the word was written on the book, it was like a finishing touch, and a sense of desolation and grievance rushed over her face.

At the same time, women cried one after another, and one of the girls' voices was very familiar.

Yao Shouning didn't dare to be distracted to think about it, and then he continued to draw several simple strokes in succession. The more Dong Kui looked at it, the more frightened he was.

The coffin looked a little weird when it was laid out on the paper at the beginning, but after adding the word "Dian", it looked even more eerie.

At this time, Yao Shouning's random strokes, no matter how you look at them, look like simplified villains. Leng might as well look at them, like a group of people crying around a coffin.

mourning!

Did Yao Shouning predict that someone would die in his family, and there was going to be a funeral?

She didn't dare to make a sound, and then saw Yao Shouning paused, and then closed his eyes.

The girl randomly picked up a pen to draw on the paper, and placed another coffin, which was simpler than before, on the paper, but this time the coffin was not covered, and a grinning monster sat half leaning on the coffin.

Dong Kui was shocked and terrified, so Yao Shouning casually drew a few strokes on the top of the coffin containing the monster.

The strokes are simple, but Mallow sees a feeling of dark clouds overwhelming the top.

At this time, Yao Shouning seemed to be groping forward in the dark, relying on his own spiritual sense to guide the way, and using the innate power of the Bianji tribe to find the feeling of foresight.

She didn't know how long she had been drawing, and suddenly scattered and messy fragments appeared in her mind.

"Woo—father—" a woman's sharp cry sounded.

"Master..." The woman's cry followed.

……

In the end, many images flashed by like a revolving lantern, so fast that Yao Shouning couldn't catch them.

She didn't try to do something in vain, but instead looked down intently.

In the dark cemetery, the coffin was opened, and a rotten and deformed corpse sat up from the coffin. The big mouth with rotten flesh opened, black air spewed out, and two withered palms stretched out towards her...

"Hey - the Bianji clan, the son of luck, died here..."

A strange laughter sounded in her mind, a shadow rose into the sky, and in an instant, a terrible pressure like a mountain collapsed poured down.

But at the next moment, Yao Shouning's picture flew again, and everything accelerated, and she reappeared, riding in the carriage.

The car swayed and swayed, causing her vision to sway a little. There was a mist outside the window, and at the corner of the street ahead, a tall and thin figure came slowly in a daze.

The figure subconsciously raised his head when he heard the sound of the carriage.

Although it was within the illusion, this person's line of sight seemed to accurately capture Yao Shouning's line of sight through the barriers of time and the carriage.

The blurry image of the figure gradually became clear. The sky blue clothes on his body were soaked by the morning rain and turned into a beautiful blue color. His black hair stuck tightly to his thin face, showing his embarrassment. and fragile.

"Shou Ning—" he shouted, his face was wet, and his lips moved:

"I don't have a father anymore!"

"..."

Yao Shouning woke up suddenly and shouted:
"Brother Wen!"

In the phantom, the person walking slowly out of the blue mist was actually Wen Jingsui.

She was so surprised that she shouted so loudly that not only Mong Kui heard it clearly, but also Lu Zhi who came to her yard at this time.

"Brother Wen..."

Shizi felt sour in his heart, two bubbles of tears were almost squeezed out of his eyes.

For some reason, he suddenly felt timid and angry, mixed with a hint of grievance.

He originally wanted to go into the courtyard to look for Yao Shouning and discuss about going out at night, but hearing her yell 'Brother Wen' at this moment was like being poured cold water on her head.

At this moment, Lu Zhi's heart was torn apart. On the one hand, he was a little disheartened, remembering that everything had gone wrong for him for more than a year, and he was almost disgraced in front of Yao Shouning, with no pride at all.

After being infected by the demon, he went crazy several times, and the reputation he had accumulated before was almost ruined. Even the girls from the Chu family who had been pestering him in the past turned around and left when they saw him.

"Forget it." The son thought to himself: Shouning is not what it used to be. She has awakened the blood of the Bianji clan and obtained the inheritance. The future is destined to be extraordinary, but how can I match her?
What's more, now that she keeps saying "Brother Wen", she obviously has no intentions for her, so why don't she just let go and just be friends before she can confess her feelings.

But as soon as this thought came up, Lu Zhi felt a pain like a needle prick in his heart.

"Shouning! That's Shouning!"

She had worked hand in hand with him to overcome countless difficulties.

The two once fought the "River God" together, faced the pursuit of Chen Taiwei, traveled through 400 years, and entered the tomb of Dai Wang.

She is lively and lovely, kind but sophisticated, considerate and intelligent, so unique.

There is only one her in this world, if he gives up, then with her personality, it may be impossible for him to catch up with her again.

Since then, the gap between the two has become bigger and bigger. Maybe in the future, I will never be able to hold her hand again, and I will never hear her calling me 'My Son' with a smile on my face, nor will I speak softly. Coax him.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhi shuddered and broke free from his depression.

He regained his composure, and immediately began to desperately seek compensation: he is not weak.

He was born in the General's Mansion, his father was the Great General Dingguo Shenwu, and his mother was the eldest princess of the Daqing Dynasty...

But as soon as this idea came up, Lu Zhi realized that the Daqing Dynasty would be overthrown, and such an identity did not have much advantage for him.

But besides his family status, he also studied under Shenwumen, and he is handsome and handsome, especially good-looking.

According to his observation, even though Yao Shouning was young, he also looked at people's looks. When he saw someone with a beautiful face, he would always look more often.

Good-looking, this is one's own advantage!

Lu Zhi was overjoyed, and then thought of another point: Wen Jingsui was overwhelmed, and tried to express his love to Yao Shouning, but Yao Shouning had already rejected him.

Just a failed competitor.

No matter how loose the boulder he mentioned in Shizi's heart, he felt that hope was right in front of him.

What's more, although Yao Shouning is a descendant of the Bianji clan, he has a destiny and has a bright future.

Even if Daqing collapsed, but his father was a student of Shenwumen and carried the map of the Vajra Suppressing Demons on his back, his mother was extraordinary in martial arts and had a strong family background, so he and Yao Shouning could be regarded as close relatives.

Furthermore, the two of them have shared weal and woe, and their friendship is extraordinary. If there is anyone in the world who has the best understanding with Yao Shouning, then it is undoubtedly him.

Lu Zhi's self-confidence was rekindled, he swept away his previous depression, and stepped into the courtyard with his chest up.

He doesn't want to back down.

"Shou Ning!"

He yelled, and Yao Shouning 'woke up' from the phantom, looking at the drawing paper on the table in shock.

Mallow was at a loss, apparently frightened by her actions just now.

Before she had time to appease Mallow, she heard Shizi's call, and quickly responded loudly:

"My lord, come in quickly."

The figure of the prince appeared in the courtyard, and he stopped at the door, suppressing his joy:

"It's your room after all..."

He met Yao Shouning for many trips and visited her courtyard several times, but he never entered her room.

The layout of the girl's room is simple, facing the courtyard door is the hall of the room. Compared with the hall where Mrs. Liu lives, the hall of her room is slightly smaller. There is a desk and a long couch for rest on the outside, and the inside leads directly to the bedroom, which is blocked by a screen.

He looked at it twice and felt satisfied.

Mrs. Liu is very strict with her daughter, and Wen Jingsui must have never been to Yao Shouning's room.

At this time, Lu Zhi wished he could go in immediately, but he said hypocritically:
"That's not good……"

"Come in quickly!" Yao Shouning didn't know the twist in his heart, and waved at him:
"You come and see."

The prince was stunned for a moment, only to realize that she was holding a paintbrush, her cuffs were dyed with ink, and there was a piece of paper spread out in front of her, with something messed up on it.

She had let her instinctive consciousness guide her before, closed her eyes and scribbled, as if she was possessed, but now the lines on the drawing paper were intertwined, and she couldn't even recognize the coffin she originally drew.

"oops."

Seeing that Shi Zi was stunned and did not move, Yao Shouning threw away the paintbrush and took a step forward to pull Lu Zhi's hand:
"Come and see quickly."

She dragged Lu Zhi into the room and stood in front of the table.

The drawing paper was full of black ink, and I couldn't bear to see it.

Lu Zhi glanced at it, and an inexplicable emotion hit his heart—"咲", Shizi gasped, and then praised against his will:

"Shouning's paintings are really beautiful."

But he thought in his heart: It seems that Shouning is not good at drawing.

"..." Mao Kui looked at him with disgust.

"..." Yao Shouning's face turned blue and red.

She could hear Shizi's voice, and she clenched her hands into fists, ready to move.

"This, this line is so beautifully drawn, the pen is drawn like flowing water, I see you...Huh?"

"What nonsense are you talking about..."

Yao Shouning wanted to reach out and hit him, but just as he was gnashing his teeth, Lu Zhi's face suddenly changed:
"Here, it seems that a coffin was originally painted here..." He said this, it can be seen that he finally saw the way.

Yao Shouning breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to speak when Lu Zhi's expression turned serious:
"Not one coffin, but two."

I don't know if it's because Xi Shi is in the eyes of his lover and he loves everything about Yao Shouning very much, or because Yao Shouning wrote his pen because he was in an illusion, or because the two of them have a good understanding and a perfect understanding--the son has really come out of this chaos. On the group's ink, he saw some clues and told some of Yao Shouning's thoughts.

"hiss?"

Mallow's expression changed from disgust to surprise.

She was the one who accompanied Yao Shouning when he first started painting. Naturally, he knew that Yao Shouning did draw two coffins at the beginning, but later she scribbled randomly, and the more intense the brush and ink covered the original picture.

The son came later, but he was able to tell Yao Shouning's original painting through the chaos. It can be seen that he really read the mess of ink seriously, and didn't just guess randomly.

Even if he guessed randomly, but he can guess so accurately, it can be seen that he has a deep understanding of Yao Shouning.

Yao Shouning was also a little surprised, and in addition to being surprised, he was also a little shy.

She had a feeling as if her inner world had been invaded and spied on by Lu Zhi. A string in her heart was touched by Shizi, and the aftertaste scattered, which made her stunned for a moment, a little at a loss.

"There are two coffins, here originally looked like a single word, and the word was circled," Lu Zhi didn't realize the change in the mentality of the girl beside him, but tried hard to look at the calligraphy and painting, trying to make out something:
"The coffin, the word, could it be, 'Dian'?"

At any rate, he had also experienced a funeral, and that funeral was held for himself. Lu Zhi guessed and guessed, relying on his strange experience, to guess Yao Shouning's original 'painting':
"You drew such a scene, do you have a premonition that someone died?"

The two of them were in the same mind, and he guessed what Yao Shouning hadn't said based on these alone.

Yao Shouning's heart throbbed, he raised his head in a daze, and subconsciously looked at Shi Zi, his heart beating wildly.

Lu Zhi didn't have the ability to read minds, so he didn't know that his good luck was coming, but his extraordinary performance was only so far, and then the son began to guess wildly:
"Who's dead? My uncle?"

"..." The corners of Yao Shouning's eyes twitched, and Lu Zhi was still guessing:

"If it was him, maybe it was my mother who cleaned up the house for the late emperor..."

The eldest princess has a bad temper, and she will bear it all the time with Emperor Shen Qi. If she learns what he has done, she might really attack in a fit of anger.

"not him."

Yao Shouning shook his head regretfully, then said in a low voice:
"It's the Wen family."

"Wen Jingsui is going to die?"

Hearing this, Lu Zhi remembered Yao Shouning's exclamation when he entered the hospital earlier, his eyes lit up, and his face couldn't help showing joy.

But the next moment, when he saw Yao Shouning's face turning blue, he realized something was wrong. He tried to put on a sad expression, and lowered his voice:
"Wen Jingsui is going to die?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Yao Shouning gritted his teeth, stretched out his hand to pinch him, and heard Shizi gasp, a little joy welled up in his heart:
"Maybe, maybe something will happen to Brother Wen's father."

she hesitated.

In fact, she is now very confident in her predictive power, and thinking about the day when her power was just awakened, she had already predicted the funeral of Wen's family when she watched Wen Jing follow her face.

But it was a living life after all, and it came from an elder he was familiar with, so he naturally hoped that this prediction was false.

"Wen Qingzhe?"

The relaxed look in Lu Zhi's eyes faded, and his expression became solemn and serious:
"Persecuted by evil spirits?"

"I don't know." Yao Shouning shook his head, a haze flashed in his heart:
"I just sensed that the Wen family will hold a funeral..."

And that voice crying 'Father' was clearly Wen Xianrong.

When she thought of Wen Xianrong, she couldn't help feeling worried. Seeing her brows furrowed, Lu Zhi said seriously:
"Shouning, don't think so much. Later, I will ask Ziwen to arrange two reliable people to follow behind him secretly to protect his safety."

Shizi usually likes to be sour and jealous, and he doesn't have a good face at any time when Wen Jing is mentioned, but he is very clear-headed when it comes to right and wrong, and he can distinguish the seriousness of the matter.

Yao Shouning looked at him softly, and did not reject his proposal, but said in a soft voice:
"Then it will trouble the prince."

Lu Zhi shook his head casually:
"What's the trouble?" But he thought in his heart: If Wen Jingsui really died, Shou Ning would definitely take pity on him.

He immediately thought of Wen Qingzhe, who was not a high-ranking official, but had a stubborn and old-fashioned temper. Many people didn't have a good impression of him.

Wen Qingzhe gave birth to a good son, and Wen Jing became famous in Shendu when he was young, and was appreciated by Gu Huanzhi. At that time, Wen Qingzhe was also attracted by many people because of this.

But this person did not lie to all the officials who showed his favor, and acted in a strict manner. No matter whether others greeted with smiles, generous gifts, or nice words, he turned them all away, so he offended many people.

Over the years, his official position has not been promoted, which has something to do with his unpopular temper.

But other than that, Wen Qingzhe was an upright person and a clean official. Such behavior was actually very popular with some Confucian scholars.

Generally speaking, Wen Qingzhe is rigid and upright, but he has made no major mistakes in his life and behaves well.

Such a person is not a commoner, but has a low-level official position. If he has a son who became famous at a young age, if he dies in a demon disaster, it will definitely cause an uproar.

On the contrary, he has an upright personality. Even though he is only seventh rank, but he serves in front of the king, it is very likely that he will be offended by the emperor because of his character.

Lu Zhi's conjecture did not come out of thin air. Before, Wen Qingzhe was almost convicted because of his outspoken admonitions. In the end, Liu Bingzhou came forward to intercede, which made him escape from any danger.

Thinking of this, the prince frowned.

He looked at Yao Shouning, and saw that the girl's brows relaxed because of his words, as if she had lifted a big stone in her heart, so he stopped talking, and decided to find a way to remind Wen Jingsui privately, asking him to remind his father not to speak out, so as to avoid this. A wave of catastrophe.

"By the way, there is one more thing."

Lu Zhi's willingness to help solved the hidden worries in Yao Shouning's heart, which allowed her to shift all her attention to the realm of foresight.

"What's the matter?" Lu Zhi asked.

"Tonight we..."

She frowned, with a look of embarrassment on her face, Lu Zhi saw her expression, and his heart tightened:
"Trouble?"

"There may be an ambush."

Yao Shouning nodded:
"I always feel that this trip..." She couldn't tell whether it was smooth or not, so she could only say:
"We should be able to find clues during this trip." She thought of the monster sitting up from the coffin in the vision, shivering shiveringly, and subconsciously reached out and crossed her shoulders:

"From a certain point of view, I feel that the goal has been achieved, but..." But in the end, judging from the situation in the illusion, the two may be in crisis, "The evil spirits may guess our actions, Will wait there-"

"Is there any danger?" Lu Zhi asked.

Yao Shouning hesitated for a moment, then shook his head hesitantly:

"Probably not. I feel like I ended up leaving alive—"

She didn't have a foresight in the middle, but she later rode in a carriage and met Wen Jingsui. If the foresight was in order, then it could prove that she and Lu Zhi should have left the tomb alive. There is no danger.

But Yao Shouning didn't know if it was because she 'saw' two ominous omens one after another, which affected her mentality, or because she still lacked experience and strength, she couldn't accurately judge whether the sequence of these foresights was in accordance with Time sequence, or random prediction.

"Then don't think too much about it."

Executive Lu made a final decision:

"We are still visiting the grave tonight as originally planned."

He and Yao Shouning complemented each other in character and ability. One was good at predicting and forewarning dangers in advance, while the other was superior in force and acted decisively, helping her cut through hesitation.

"If you encounter an ambush, maybe you can find out some clues. As for the danger——" the prince paused, and reached out to touch his waist:
"I will protect you, and I will never let you have any accidents." However, it was about Yao Shouning's safety. After Lu Zhi finished speaking, he denied his original words:

"No, it's not safe enough."

Besides Yao Shouning being extremely important in his heart, she is the descendant of the Bianji clan of this generation, and she will be of great help to everyone in the future in restraining evil spirits, so nothing can happen to her, nor can she be compromised by this action.

"I want to discuss with your grandfather, if he can spare some time when he sees it, and help us plunder the rear."

Yao Shouning nodded.

Time was running out, Shizi didn't care about talking, turned around and left.

In the following time Yao Shouning had lost interest in 'painting'. Although Lu Zhi had already arranged for the two foreseen major events and it should be safe, she was still a little uneasy.

This uneasy feeling came true in the evening. Before dinner, someone knocked on the door of Yao's house, and Mrs. Wen led her daughter to ask for help.

The two of them knelt down in front of Liu Bingzhou as soon as they arrived, and Wen Qingzhe was arrested and put into the prison.

This was Wen Qingzhe's second time as a prison officer, but Wen's mother and daughter did not appear calmer because of such 'experience'.

Mrs. Wen's face was pale. Yao's house was kept clean and simple, but she could still smell the residual food in the air.

Judging from the time, the Yao family was having dinner, and the arrival of the two mothers and daughters obviously disturbed Liu Bingzhou's dinner.

The most important thing in her life is to be respectable, and she used to be dissatisfied because of Yao Shouning's out-of-the-ordinary personality, but she didn't know that the last two accidents happened to the Wen family, but it was the Yao family who stood in front of the Wen family.

Guilt and anxiety flashed in Mrs. Wen's heart, Liu Bingzhou looked gentle, seeing that she was in a state of confusion, he asked Fengchun to make a cup of hot tea for her.

It was already July at this time, and the weather should have been sweltering, but this year's climate was weird, and it was rare for God to be a bit chilly after nightfall.

And something happened to Mrs. Wen's house, she was nervous and scared, there was no trace of blood on her face, she sat on the chair, her whole body was shaking non-stop, as if she couldn't calm down at all.

The two families were old friends, Feng Chun got the order and hurried to boil water and make tea, Yao Shouning was by Wen Xianrong's side, Yao Ruoyun looked worried.

While talking, time passed quickly, hot tea was brought up, Mrs. Wen held the hot teacup, the cold air on her body was dispelled, and her face looked better.

"...I don't know what happened, but I heard that he was arrested after noon."

Mrs. Wen said:

"I also took care of it last time in the Prison Department, and this time I also..." Mrs. Wen moved her hips, and said anxiously:
"But this time I sent money again, but they refused to accept it, and no news was revealed."

In the past, Mrs. Wen had a very high opinion of herself. She thought that the Wen family was a family of scholars with high moral character.

But when something happened at home, I found that I couldn't help at all, so I had to turn to others for help.

"Jing Sui went to run again, but he hasn't come back yet, I'm thinking..."

When she said this, she glanced at Liu Bingzhou:
"You have a great reputation. I would like to ask you to help me find out the news. It would be great if you can spend some money. Our family still has some money..."

After Mrs. Wen said this, she touched her cuff subconsciously.

"It's not easy."

Lu Zhi on the side heard this, shook his head and spoke.

As soon as he finished speaking, Mrs. Wen raised her head abruptly. Wen Xianrong was also a little anxious, and subconsciously grabbed Yao Shouning's palm tightly.

In the hearts of Wen's mother and daughter, Lu Zhi's status is extraordinary. This time they came to Yao's house, besides asking Liu Bingzhou for help, Lu Zhi's attitude is also very important.

At this time when he said this, Mrs. Wen thought that he was unwilling to help, her lips moved, but she felt that she couldn't utter the words to force others to help, so the tears kept pouring out.

Seeing that his friend was anxious, Yao Shouning couldn't help but glance at Lu Zhi, and Shi Zi explained:

"It's not that you don't want to help, but that the situation is not good."

When he said this, he didn't talk nonsense, and shouted:
"Chang Ya comes in."

Hearing his call, Duan Changya soon appeared, and the prince confessed:

"You take five people to the prison department to see if you can bring Mr. Wen out."

Among the two followers around him, both of them practiced martial arts, but Luo Ziwen was more proficient, and Duan Changya's martial strength value was a little higher.

At this time, he summoned Duan Changya. Although he didn't say it clearly, the two had been together for many years and had a tacit understanding. Duan Changya understood that he was implying to himself: If the prison chief does not let him go, he can use force to take Wen Qingzhe back .

When Mrs. Wen heard this, she realized that she had misunderstood what the son meant, and she couldn't help being surprised and delighted.

She didn't expect Lu Zhi to be willing to make such an effort. The implication in Shizi's words seemed that he was not afraid of offending the prison officer and wanted to force Wen Qingzhe out.

But she rejoiced for a moment, and the timidity in her bones surfaced again:
"But in this way, my master is still guilty. I'm afraid that the prison chief will come to make trouble again, and he will still have to go back..."

The prince helps others for a while, but cannot help them forever.

At the beginning, Mrs. Wen thought that Shizi was young and would act impulsively if he was not careful. After saying this, Shizi said patiently:

"Mrs. Wen, if I don't do this, Mr. Wen's life may not be saved."

After he finished speaking, he ignored the horror on the faces of Wen's mother and daughter, and urged Duan Changya:

"Go and come back quickly, we have things to do later, Aunt Liu can't be away for too long."

Duan Changya left at the sound, and after he left, Mrs. Wen said in a panic:

"I don't quite understand what the son just said." She is just a woman in the inner house. Although she has a bad feeling about the recent changes in Shendu City, but the news is closed, she is afraid when she hears what the son said:

"Also ask the prince to guide me."

After finishing speaking, he subconsciously moved closer to Yao Shouning:

"Shouning..."

She used to think that Yao Shouning's personality was out of character, not very dignified, and it was difficult to deal with big things, but now after an accident, compared to her mother and daughter who only cried when they panicked, Yao Shouning took care of family affairs after Liu's injury Being well-organized, regrets were already born in my heart.

Mrs. Wen was confused, she only took Yao Shouning as her backbone:

"Tell me about..."

Yao Shouning was anxious and glanced at Shi Zi.

The eyes of the two met, and they both remembered the ominous premonition that afternoon.

Lu Zhi's worry has come true, and something may happen to the Wen family.

"Is such that--"

Yao Shouning's wrist was tightly grasped by her, Mrs. Wen's strength was a little strong in her desperation, and her nails dug into her flesh, but she did not resist, instead she held Mrs. Wen with her soft hands, as if she wanted to warm her body. Passed to her body through the overlapping hands of the two.

"The Supreme Emperor issued a notice today, and you must have heard of it..."

Everyone knew about the notice at this time, but because the content was so unbelievable, many people were at the level that Monk Zhanger couldn't figure it out.

Mrs. Wen didn't understand why Yao Shouning brought up this matter suddenly. She had a splitting headache, but she also knew that Yao Shouning was not a random person.

Since Yao Shouning mentioned this matter, there might be a connection between the two, so she suppressed her uneasiness and listened quietly to Yao Shouning:

"Yesterday..."

Yao Shouning started from yesterday when Liu Bingzhou entered the palace to ask to see the emperor, then he saw Chen Taiwei go crazy, Shenqi Emperor died and escaped, and then he talked about his cooperation with the evil spirits.

The evil spirits are about to cause chaos, and such news cannot be kept hidden for long, and the Wen family must know it well.

After she finished talking about the cause and effect, she also talked about the closure of the gates in the city today, and then mentioned the news that Yao Hui brought back home today.

Seeing her talking for a long time, Lu Zhi was afraid that her mouth would become dry, so he handed her a cup of tea, and while she was drinking, he continued:

"To tell you the truth, he's gone crazy."

Everyone knows who the 'he' is in Shizi's words.

"Now he insists on attracting evil spirits into the capital of the gods, allowing evil spirits to hunt human beings, and blatantly eliminating dissidents." The son said in a deep voice:

"I think, with Mr. Wen's character, I'm afraid he will speak out."

But Emperor Shenqi had long lost his mind, and Wen Qingzhe's remonstrance was not only useless, it might cost his life.

"..."

At this moment, Mrs. Wen finally knew the cause and effect, and her face turned pale with horror.

Only then did she realize the seriousness of the matter.

Lu Zhi was right, if Wen Qingzhe entered the prison department today, he might never return. If he didn't use coercive means, it might be Wen Qingzhe's body that would be sent home.

"This, what can I do, what can I do..."

"There's no need to panic."

Lu Zhi shook his head:

"In my opinion, the Daqing Dynasty may not last long."

He has no feelings for Emperor Shenqi at all, and he just said something if he wanted to say:

"Besides, the crisis is imminent, my uncle's actions..."

He shook his head and swallowed the words 'dying struggle' into his mouth.

"Anyway, according to my plan, I will snatch him back. If you are afraid, you can temporarily ask Grandfather Liu to protect you."

The prince's actions are rough and simple, and he is too lazy to think about plots and tricks:
"With us guarding, no one can come and snatch people away in a short time."

"But..." Mrs. Wen has been abiding by the law all her life, and if she acts according to Lu Zhi's words at this time, it will be tantamount to disobedience to the monarch.

She was at a loss and subconsciously looked at her daughter:

"I……"

At this time, Wen Xianrong showed extraordinary calmness. She was silent for a moment, and then suddenly asked Yao Shouning:

"Shouning, what do you think?"

Yao Shouning drank a few sips of water, and his throat had already eased a lot. Hearing this, he said:

"The son's words are the only way."

She had already foreseen Wen Qingzhe's death. If the Wen family could not make up their minds, the result of this prediction would happen.

Shi Zi's method sounds absurd at first, but it might be able to find a way out in the chaotic situation.

Wen Xianrong trusted her abnormally, and made a decision:

"Just do it."

"But this is equivalent to rebellion..." Mrs. Wen whispered softly.

"Mother, if you still obey, the result you will face is that your father will die."

Wen Qingzhe is the pillar of the Wen family, if he dies, what will happen to the Wen family?
"It's nothing if we were convicted, but your brother has a bright future..."

Hearing this, Lu Zhi twitched the corner of his mouth.

The Daqing Dynasty has been tossed like this, and Emperor Shenqi has gone crazy. It is hard to say how long it will survive, and what will be the future?
But this belongs to the Wen family's housework. For Yao Shouning's sake, it is rare for him to be troublesome. Hearing what Mrs. Wen said at this time, he said calmly:

"If you are worried, after I ask Chang Ya to bring you back to Mr. Wen, your family can discuss it on your own, and then just push the matter to me."

"..." Mrs. Wen's face flushed, and she said quickly:
"No, that's not what I meant..."

Only then did she realize that something was wrong with her words, and she was afraid that she would offend Lu Zhi, so she quickly wanted to make amends, but she was not good at begging and admitting mistakes, so she stood up, not knowing what to say next.

"mother."

Wen Xianrong tugged at the corner of her mother's clothes, and gave a wry smile:
"With our current situation, what are we talking about? What's more, if father offends the emperor and is convicted, even if we obey, will the emperor be extra merciful and not punish my eldest brother?"

Mrs. Wen was so speechless by her daughter that she couldn't speak with tears in her eyes.

"Shouning, is this really the case?" She took Yao Shouning as a life-saving straw, and Yao Shouning nodded:
"Is such that."

Emperor Shenqi had a mean temper, and Liu Bingzhou was not grateful for saving his life. Wen Qingzhe's blunt admonition at this time, in the eyes of Emperor Shenqi, was tantamount to making him suffer.

Lu Zhi said bluntly:
"Not only Mr. Wen himself was convicted, but it is very likely that his family will be harmed as well."

This sentence immediately reminded Mrs. Wen who was still hesitant, and she suddenly came to her senses:
"Your Majesty is right, I am indecisive."

Liu Bingzhou sat on the side without making a sound, seeing the cooperation of the two children, handling the matter well, and being able to convince Mrs. Wen, he was extremely satisfied.

Yao Shouning gradually matured, the eldest son acted in a rough but subtle way, not only had the directness of the eldest princess, but also was much more decisive than the eldest princess.

He smiled, and then he spoke:
"My son's method is good. If we act quickly, we can save your life."

When he spoke, although Mrs. Wen still had concerns in her heart, she also knew that this was the only way to go, so she nodded.

"However, Mrs. Wen's worry is not unreasonable. How about this? Divide the matter into two parts, one according to the son-in-law's method, and on the other hand, I will ask my little son-in-law to come forward and go to the Chu family to help intercede and see if there is any accommodation." , accommodation?"

His method couldn't be better. Mrs. Wen's eyes lit up when she was still frowning before, and she almost cried with joy:

"Then thank you, sir!"

The Wen family has been innocent for generations, and she is also very afraid that her decision will shame the Wen family. It would be the best if this matter can be dealt with so that the Wen family does not cause trouble.

Liu Bingzhou sighed in his heart, but nodded with a smile on his face.

He knew in his heart that this method was only to temporarily appease Mrs. Wen so that she would not be too anxious.

In this matter, the Chu family is close ministers of Emperor Shenqi, and will only serve loyally for Emperor Shenqi.

Although Chu Xiaotong said he loved his eldest son, he would not joke about the lives of the Chu family on such a big matter.

Furthermore, the friendship between Chu Shaolian and Su Wenfang is no longer what it used to be, so it's hard to say whether he will help.

But even though he thought so, he still called Su Wenfang and told him to go there himself.

It was night now, and there were evil spirits appearing again tonight, Liu Bingzhou was also afraid that something would happen to Su Wenfang, so he wrote an inscription and handed it to him:

"If you encounter evil spirits, throw this post out, and turn around and come back immediately no matter what happens or not."

Su Wenfang nodded, took his things and went out.

Seeing this scene, Mrs. Wen was also a little ashamed, knowing that she had caused trouble for the Yao family.

But when she thought of Wen Qingzhe, she didn't stop her, but looked at Su Wenfang's back with apologetic eyes and left.

Liu Bingzhou's words made everyone realize that it would be dangerous for Su Wenfang to go, and the atmosphere was silent for a while. At this moment, Wen Xianrong cheered up:

"Is Aunt Liu feeling better?"

She broke the silence, and Mrs. Wen suddenly realized, and asked quickly:
"Yeah, it hurts for a long time."

It was only then that Mrs. Wen realized that her behavior was too selfish. The Wen family had helped the Yao family several times, while the Liu family had been 'ill' for a long time and hadn't recovered, but the Wen family couldn't help.

At such a critical moment, I went to Yao's house to ask for help - if I had known earlier that the marriage between Wen and Yao would not be cancelled, that would be great.

"It hasn't improved yet."

When Yao Shouning mentioned his mother, a worried look finally appeared on his face:
"But now there is hope. The son brought back a good recipe to save my mother. I hope my mother can recover soon."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Shizi, just as Lu Zhi was also looking at her at this time, the two looked at each other and smiled slightly.

Everyone around could see the tacit understanding between the two, Mrs. Wen sighed in her heart, the mother and daughter sat for a while, then got up to leave.

It's not an option for them to stay here all the time. They plan to go home to pack some things, and then take temporary refuge at Yao's house after Duan Changya brings Wen Qingzhe back.

When the two mothers and daughters came, their hearts were in a mess, as if they had lost their backbone, but now they feel much more at ease when they go back.

Mrs. Wen held her daughter's hand and sighed softly:

"Shouning has really matured a lot. Now it seems that she is generous and reliable, and she handles things in an orderly manner. When encountering such a mess, she has more ideas than me, and she is not in a hurry."

"Shouning is indeed very good." Wen Xianrong heard the meaning of his mother's words, his heart tightened, but he still gave a compliment.

"If I knew this earlier, I shouldn't have asked Ruoyun to help me out."

She regretted her original choice, and while there were no outsiders at this time, she told her daughter what was in her heart:

"If the two families get closer and ask for help today, they won't be so flustered..."

"Stop talking."

Wen Xianrong interrupted his mother in a low voice.

She was always submissive and obedient in front of Mrs. Wen. This was the first time she objected to her mother's opinion, which made Mrs. Wen stunned for a long time.

"Shouning is not an item, you want it if you want it, and put it aside if you don't want it." She endured and restrained again and again before saying:

"You think elder brother has outstanding character and appearance, but it may not be what she wants."

"..." Mrs. Wen was a little dissatisfied when she heard this.

Nanny Sun could hear clearly and wanted to speak, but Wen Xianrong didn't give them a chance, saying:
"During the Shangsi Festival in March, my eldest brother never gave up and talked to Shouning in private, but Shouning rejected him."

What she said made Mrs. Wen startled for a moment, and even Nanny Sun, who was about to speak, was taken aback for a moment.

In their hearts, Wen Jingsui couldn't be more outstanding. Not to mention the ladies in Shendu City, in Mrs. Wen's heart, they are the royal family and noble daughters. He deserves Wen Jingsui's appearance and talent.

But at this time, Wen Xianrong said that Wen Jingsui had actually talked to Yao Shouning in private, but was rejected.

"This, how is this possible?" Mrs. Wen murmured in disbelief.

"How is it impossible?" Wen Xianrong twitched the corner of his mouth:
"Brother likes Shouning, but he just didn't say it before."

He was influenced by the Wen family's environment and atmosphere, and his emotions were restrained. At that time, he thought that the marriage was just a close call. He knew his mother's character, and was afraid that revealing too much would embarrass Yao Shouning, so he kept restraining himself.

Unexpectedly, later on, because of this, Yao Shouning was full of resistance to the Wen family, and he never considered him at all.

"After you asked Ruoyun to bring the words, elder brother felt very uncomfortable." Wen Xianrong looked at his mother, saw Mrs. Wen opened his mouth, and before she could speak, he said again:
"Mother, don't say that you are doing these things for the good of the elder brother. The elder brother is not good. You do these things because you want to control him."

"Shouning doesn't like him, nor does he like the Wen family. Before the elder brother said anything, she has already rejected him." Wen Xianrong said this, and smiled:

"The Wen family has too many rules, and you are too strict. Women should be virtuous and virtuous, smile without showing their teeth, or walk without showing their feet. Women should do this, women should do that, men should be prudent, men should..."

Wen Xianrong is usually well-behaved and obedient, but today, many things may have piled up together. Mrs. Wen's words hit the rebellious emotion deep in her heart, and her backlog of emotions burst out at once:
"I'm tired after hearing that, how can Shouning bear it?"

"Have you seen the prince getting along with Shouning? The prince has a good background and good conditions, and he values ​​and respects Shouning. The eldest princess is tolerant, doesn't have many rules, and treats her very well. She is willing to listen to everything she has to say." Wen Xianrong looked at his mother's gradually pale face, and asked softly:

"How can our family compare with them?"

"..."

Mrs. Wen was speechless, unable to speak.

……

After the Wen family's mother and daughter left, the Yao family had no interest in eating anymore.

When it was dark, Yao Shouning and Lu Zhi quietly left the house in the dark.

The tomb they are going to visit tonight is the tomb of a member of the royal family 500 years ago. After Lu Zhi left Yao Shouning's yard in the afternoon, he also did some homework and took out a simple map:

"Shouning, take a look."

The two traveled in a carriage as usual, but unlike the past when they acted alone, the two of them traveled on a mission tonight, and Lu Wuji would personally drive him to pick him up.

A small lamp was lit in the compartment, and the windows and door cracks around the compartment were covered with thick quilts to prevent the light from being exposed and attracting the attention of evil spirits.

Tonight, the clouds were extremely thick, blocking the sky full of stars and moons, the alleys of Shendu City were pitch black, and the surroundings were so quiet that a needle could be heard, and the sound of the wheels of the carriage rolling against the ground even echoed.

Today Liu's body moved the coffin, so Liu Bingzhou sat at home.

Lu Wuji looked around vigilantly, listening to every move around him.

But I don't know if it was because Emperor Shenqi issued a notice today, declaring that "people and monsters should coexist", just after nightfall, the capital city of God is already as quiet as a dead city, not even the barking of dogs can be heard.

In the dark night, the sound of breathing and heartbeat of several people, as well as the sound of Yao Shouning spreading out the paper of the map drawn by Lu Zhi in the carriage could be clearly heard.

Yao Shouning had already predicted that tonight's journey would not be smooth, and Lu Wuji was worried that some evil spirits would travel to make trouble.

Fortunately, several people have been able to pass through without hindrance since they left the house.

In the carriage, Yao Shouning spread out the piece of paper. The map on the paper was very simple, with only the directions of 'east, south, west, and north' roughly marked. Every typical building in Shendu City was drawn with a square frame substitute.

This way of drawing is too simple, but fortunately the painter is by his side, and Shi Zi explained it very clearly:
"The east is dominated by the imperial palace. The tomb we are going to explore tonight is the tomb of a Han king in the third year of Daqing 260."

When he was talking, he moved closer to Yao Shouning, and looked at the simple map with her:

"In the third year of 260, it was the Qianzhi period. There were many concubines and concubines in the Emperor Qianzhi's palace, and they gave birth to 27 sons and [-] daughters."

Such a large number of descendants is also a minority in the entire 700-year history of Daqing.

But there is an advantage of having more descendants, that is, the blood of Emperor Ganzhi's sons and daughters is also awakened, and there are thirteen in the records alone.

In addition to many sons, another feature of Emperor Qianzhi is his extraordinarily long life. When King Han died, he was already 61. Emperor Ganzhi was still alive at the age of 85. service.

In addition to the two special cases of longevity and many children, Emperor Ganzhi has another characteristic: he is stingy and suspicious.

"King Han hadn't been enshrined when he died. After his death, Emperor Qianzhi might not bear it, and allowed him to be buried with the ceremony of a prince, and he was buried on the west side of the god capital."

More than 400 years ago, the layout of the city of Shendu was very different from that of today. Later, another earthquake almost completely overturned the capital and expanded the city.

Because the dynasties have not changed, it is impossible for these ancient princely tombs to be excavated. Even if the capital is rebuilt and the layout is changed, when encountering the tombs of the previous princes, the craftsmen who repaired them will not act rashly, and will only find ways to make the tombs go down. sink, bury.

"King Han was not outstanding when he was alive."

Emperor Ganzhi had too many heirs, and King Han was not a direct descendant. Although he had awakened the power of his blood, he was unlucky, and many of his brothers and sisters had awakened their power.

Therefore, it is not only that he was not taken seriously during his life, but there are not many records about him in history after his death.

Lu Zhi rummaged through the history books, and finally found some clues from a few words of records:
"I speculate that the location of the original cemetery is probably on the west side," Shi Zi said while his finger landed on a position on the west side, drawing a large circle:
"However, because of the earthquake during Emperor Yong'an's time, the location of the tomb may have changed. But today my father sent someone to find out the approximate location and found an entrance to the tomb."

Time was running out, and Lu Wuji had already made preparations when he knew that Yao Shouning and Lu Zhi wanted to visit the tomb again.

"However, the situation in Shendu City is special." In the past 700 years, many princes were buried near Kyoto, and then time flies, and the capital city has undergone rectification. Although many tombs have been preserved, it is almost impossible to tell who is buried in the tomb. .

It may be necessary to enter the tomb and open the coffin to find the identity of the tomb owner from the funerary objects.

"After the news of the demon king's recovery spread, my father has already started sending people to look for other tombs."

The prince lowered his voice and whispered:

"We were not supposed to take risks tonight."

The reason why the two of them traveled alone before was purely because the digging of the tomb was done in private at that time, and it was necessary to conceal people's eyes and ears, so as not to commit a big taboo.

But now the people and the imperial court are in conflict sooner or later, and the matter of the demon king's body to revive the body is of great importance, so the elders don't care about maintaining the balance on the surface, and they have to intervene forcibly.

In fact, after Yao Shouning mentioned that the demon king had recovered, Lu Wuji learned that he was investigating the tombs of the descendants of the various royal families that were recorded.

And Lu Zhi and Yao Shouning went out again tonight, purely because Yao Shouning took the opportunity of painting in the afternoon and foresaw the scene where the two appeared in the tomb.

For the current Liu Bingzhou and others, the appearance of Yao Shouning's Foresight Realm is a very important clue.

It is possible that what it brings is a hint of vitality, reminding Yao Shouning to avoid a dead end in the future, or it is possible that this part of the prediction is related to the following things.

Liu Bingzhou was worried that reckless tampering with prediction would bring immeasurable consequences.

In the Realm of Prediction, Yao Shouning said that she will go and return safely in the end, and even if she encounters a monster in the middle, it will turn the danger into good luck.

Because of this, after discussing with Lu Wuji and the others, Liu Bingzhou decided to let the two children take another risk.

They wanted to know what happened to Yao Shouning and Lu Zhi in the tomb, and they would eventually turn the corner and return safely.

And this life-saving opportunity is very likely to be beneficial to them in the war not long after.

The last part of the plot is a battle with the "River God" and the Demon King, but I knew that I should go to this end, but the process of going to the plot was beyond my expectation, and it made me a little impetuous.

Today I will post a big update of 1.8W words first, and later I will pass the story according to the situation, whether it is divided into small chapters or uploaded in large chapters~!
