All the ancestors in the capital begged me to be a substitute

After being reminded by Shen Lingxi, Mu Huai'an immediately realized something was wrong, "I see that Yun Hongshan's walking posture is somewhat similar to the corpse you usually control?"

Manipulating corpses...

Yes.

Shen Lingxi's face darkened slightly, and his eyes revealed a sudden look.

Normally, she is the one who controls the corpse, and she has never seen a corpse walking from a long distance.

At this moment, Shen Lingxi finally figured out why Yun Hongshan had been standing under the shadow of the lamp since he appeared, and why his footsteps were so stiff.

He is not a living person, but a corpse!
Realizing this, Shen Lingxi looked at the man in the veiled hat who was supporting Yunhong Mountain.

The man's pale and thin hand was resting on Yun Hongshan's arm.

And the other hand reached into Yun Hongshan's sleeve.

The wide sleeves of the robe tightly covered his hands, only a skinny wrist was exposed.

Every time he took a step, his wrist moved a few times, and Yun Hongshan followed him with stiff steps.

"It's Yunjiang's thread-drawing puppet technique." Shen Lingxi quickly said to the two, "It's the puppet technique you often talk about, manipulating corpses."

"If I'm not mistaken, the hand that the man reached into Yun Hongshan's sleeve is manipulating the silk thread to control the corpse."

Chu Yan's face darkened, and he said thoughtfully: "No wonder the news from the embroidered clothing envoy these two days said that since Yun Hongshan entered the capital, he has been shutting himself out on the grounds that he was ill, and that even the big wedding was not allowed. Participate in his place."

"Go and see."

He directly put his arms around Shen Lingxi's waist, stepped lightly, and flew towards the gate of Yunjiang Palace.

Seeing this, Mu Huai'an also performed lightness kung fu to keep up.

The roof where the three of them were located was already very close to the gate of the palace.

When they were standing in front of the gate, Yun Chao and the man in the veiled hat were supporting Yun Hongshan and walking towards the threshold of the palace.

"There are assassins, protect the prince!"

The guards of the palace saw someone descending from the sky at first glance, and with a "swish", they all drew out their sabers and surrounded them in a well-trained manner.

This sudden movement naturally caused Yunjiang Wang's family to stop.

Princess Yunjiang and Yun Chao turned their heads in surprise. They had just participated in the big wedding, so they naturally recognized Chu Yan's appearance, and their expressions changed.

They turned their heads hastily, as if they didn't recognize Chu Yan, they wanted to surround King Yunjiang and hide in the mansion.

Unexpectedly—

"His Royal Highness is here, hurry up and put down the knife!" Mu Huai'an looked at their backs and shouted coldly.

Since he revealed Chu Yan's identity in public, the Yunjiang Wang family naturally couldn't "turn a blind eye".

Princess Xiao of Yunjiang was the first to react, turned around and walked out of the door, crossed Yunchao and Yunhongshan, and greeted Chu Yan.

"The guards at home don't know Mount Tai, please forgive me, Your Highness."

With her in the lead, not only the guards, but even the common people who watched the excitement nearby hurriedly knelt down and bowed down.

"His Royal Highness, Jin An."

Following the shouts of the crowd, the sound of flutes and drums stopped abruptly.

The people who were still laughing and drinking in the distance were stunned for a moment because they didn't understand, and hurriedly followed the crowd to kneel down.

"His Royal Highness, Jin An."

"His Royal Highness, Jin An."

The sound of kneeling and prostration sounded one after another on the long street.

The barbarian square was lively and jubilant just a moment ago, but within a few breaths, the entire long street was as quiet as no one's land.

The soldiers of the five cities' soldiers and horses and the servants of the government office heard that the prince had appeared, rushed towards the gate of the mansion like a tide, and knelt down to pay respects.

Chu Yan had a handsome and stern face, and put his hands behind his back, his whole body was filled with an oppressive and murderous aura.

Without saying a word, he glanced lightly at the three figures at the gate of the palace.

Yun Chao and the man in the veiled hat looked at each other, and without daring to take a breath, they turned around supporting Yun Hongshan's body, and saluted Chu Yan.

Originally, Yun Hongshan, as the vassal king of the opposite sex bestowed by the emperor, did not have to kneel down and worship the prince in private.

But the man in the veiled hat is just a commoner.

If he wanted to kneel, the corpse of Yun Hongshan he was controlling could not stand up.

Then, everyone saw that Yun Hongshan, the king of Yunjiang, knelt on the ground along with the common people.

In this way, Concubine Xiao, who was still maintaining her curtsy posture, was left there in embarrassment.

Concubine Xiao turned her back to Yun Chao and the others, and did not notice her abnormality.

From the beginning to the end, Yun Hongshan's movements were stiff, his head was lowered all the time, and he didn't make any sound.

The man in the veiled hat knelt on the ground, with one hand stretched out in Yun Hongshan's sleeve seemingly unintentionally.

"His Royal Highness Jin An..." Yun Chao trembled.

Chu Yan's eyes swept across the four of them lightly, and a cold light flashed in the bottom of his eyes.

"Today, the King of Yunjiang hosted a banquet to celebrate the wedding of Gu and the Crown Princess. If you are interested, you don't need to be too polite. Let's all live together."

As soon as these words came out, the four of them all heaved a sigh of relief.

The corners of Chu Yan's lips hooked slightly, seeing that Yun Hongshan was about to stand up stiffly from the ground——

He took a step and walked in front of Yun Hongshan.

"My lord doesn't need to show me such a great gift." After speaking, he stretched out his hand directly towards Yun Hongshan's right arm, as if to help Yun Hongshan.

However, at the moment when Chu Yan's phalanx was about to touch Yun Hongshan's arm——
Yun Hongshan took a few steps back as if flattered.

But behind him was the threshold, and his feet tripped over the threshold, and his body instantly twitched uncontrollably.

"My lord!"

"Father!"

Concubine Xiao yelled in panic: "My lord, have you relapsed from your old disease?"

She was planning to pounce in the direction of Yunhong Mountain, taking the opportunity to cover for them——
Mu Huai'an walked up to her first, and stretched out the fan bone in his hand to block her footsteps.

"Princess, don't be in a hurry." Mu Huai'an smiled, and said meaningfully: "Your Highness has brought his assistant here, and you will be able to see whether the old illness has relapsed, so don't be impatient, Wangfei."

Princess Xiao's face changed drastically when she heard the word "仵 Zuo".

At the same time, Chu Yan's footsteps moved slightly, and he shot at the man in the veiled hat extremely sharply.

In desperation, the hand of the man in the veiled hat that was on the outside of Yun Hongshan's arm frantically blocked the move.

But he had to take care of the corpse control and use one hand at the same time, which was not enough for Chu Yan at all.

After a few breaths of effort, there were two "bang, bang", and Chu Yan patted his chest twice, then sealed his acupuncture points and fixed him in place.

Chu Yan directly pulled off the veiled hat on his head, revealing his face.

It was a young man about the same age as Yun Chao, with an ordinary face that was easy to forget.

He is thin and thin, with pale skin that has blue veins.

At this moment, he lowered his eyelids slightly, covering his pupils, making it difficult for people to see his emotions at the moment.

At the same time that he was immobilized, Yun Hongshan's body, which was already on the verge of falling, suddenly lost strength and went limp to the right side.

His left arm is being supported by Yun Chao.

Seeing that his body was out of control, Yun Chao secretly tried to support his body by himself.

Unexpectedly——

"Crack, click", "hiss..." There were two crisp sounds of bones and the sound of clothes being torn.

Everyone only saw Yun Hongshan's body, which suddenly fell backwards.

"My lord, be careful!"

With a "bang", Yun Hongshan hit the back of his head on the floor tiles, bounced twice, and fell to the ground on his back.

"My lord!" Concubine Xiao screamed, she pushed aside Mu Huai'an's fan, and was about to rush towards Yunhong Mountain.

But once again, Mu Huai'an blocked him, "Princess, wait a minute, don't worry, don't worry."

"You...you get out of the way." Xiao Wangfei lowered her voice and said very quickly: "If you stop me, what good will it do for you, Mrs. Mu!"

Mu Huaian raised his eyebrows in surprise.

He was sure that he had never seen this Concubine Xiao, let alone that he had not even attended the ceremony for the prince's wedding.

Why did Princess Xiao recognize him and mention Mu family in front of him?

Mu Huai'an felt strange in his heart, and the corners of his lips smiled inexplicably: "His Royal Highness and I will watch the fun tonight, if we don't stop you, then I, Mu Shi, will become your accomplice?"

Concubine Xiao's face darkened, "Okay, okay!"

She said "Okay" twice, turned her face away, her eyes were full of anger.

Meanwhile, on the other side—

Yun Hongshan fell to such an extent, if it were an ordinary person, he would have screamed out, blood spattered on the spot.

But from the beginning to the end, Yun Hongshan didn't make a sound at all, and there was no trace of blood under his body.

The servants and guards wanted to step forward to help him up.

Before he moved his footsteps, everyone saw that his eyes were dark and coldly opened, with no light in his pupils, his face was blue, and there were scattered spots on his forehead and cheeks.

What was even more weird was that although his body was paralyzed on the ground, that arm was still held by Yun Chao.

"Oh, my son, you, you, you... how did you pull the prince's arm off!" Shen Lingxi, who was watching the excitement, exclaimed loudly.

She dresses like a man today, she is not afraid of being recognized by others.

Yun Chao never expected that his arm would fall off his father's body.

Feeling guilty, he subconsciously let go of his hand.

The arm fell to the ground like a rag.

"Hey, my son, it's your fault." Shen Lingxi took two steps forward, pointed to the stump at his feet, and said, "My lord's arm is broken, just take it back. As a son, how can you do it casually?" Throwing the prince's arm on the ground? That's a big disobedience!"

As Shen Lingxi said, she bent down and picked up the broken arm on the ground.

"Bring it!"

Yun Chao realized something was wrong, let out a deep drink, and was about to reach out to snatch it——
But Shen Lingxi dodged sideways very flexibly.

While hiding, she pretended to be surprised and yelled, "Ah! What is this?"

"Your Highness, look quickly! How can King Yunjiang's arm still draw silk?"

Drawing?

Drawing? ? ?

When everyone heard this word, their heads were full of question marks.

Everyone knows that there are shredded bananas, shredded yams, shredded golden dates in this world...

But what does this "drawing arms" mean?
Driven by unprecedented curiosity, everyone on the field looked at Shen Lingxi in unison.

Everyone saw the young man holding the broken arm, pulling the broken arm back clumsily with both hands——

Under the illumination of the overhead wind lamp, between the broken arm and the body lying on the ground, there seemed to be many silk threads glowing with cold light, pulling them.

Weird!

At this moment, everyone who saw this scene, not to mention the people of Dazhou, even the people of Yunjiang gasped.

The servants and guards closest to Shen Lingxi all took a few steps back.

A bold one stepped forward and reached out to touch Yun Hongshan's breath.

"Ah... dead, dead, the prince is dead!" the man screamed and stepped back.

"Where did you come from, a monster? You must have killed my father! What did you do to my father?" Yun Chao subconsciously wanted to turn against the guest and slander.

When Shen Lingxi heard this, she smiled.

Such a stupid accusation, she didn't even bother to waste her tongue.

It seems that even though Yun Chao looks smarter now, his bones are still the same as before, and even his reaction is exactly the same as his cousin Yun Chong who couldn't put together his whole brain.

"Gu still wants to ask you, what did you do to King Yunjiang?"

Chu Yan shouted coldly, and he directly tore off the tightly covered cloak on the man with the hood.

"What is that?" Someone in the crowd exclaimed.

Everyone could see that under the cloak, on the half of the man's arm, was tied a complex and sophisticated mechanism.

From one side of the arm, dense silver threads stretched out, and were drawn into the sleeve on the right side of King Yunjiang who was lying on the ground!

"Oh, so many silk threads! Could this be the legendary Yunjiang silk puppet technique?"

Shen Lingxi turned her head and looked at Yun Chao in shock, "Shizi Yun, did you kill your father and make him a puppet? He is your real father, how could you be so cruel!"

Her voice was so clear that everyone present could hear it clearly.

All eyes were on Yunchao.

Yun Chao's face was already gloomy, and his hand hanging by his side was clenched into a fist, wishing to beat the person in front of him into a meatloaf immediately.

He knew very well that at times like this, he couldn't be led by the nose by the cunning person in front of him.

Once admitted in public, it will be a situation beyond redemption.

"I don't even know what you're talking about..."

It's just that he hasn't finished his defense yet——
"Yun, the king of Yunjiang... the king of Yunjiang is alive!"

Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted.

Everyone was instantly attracted by the figure on the ground.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the dead body of King Yunjiang, who had been lying silently and limply on the ground before, stood up by himself!
Not only did he stand up, but he also flexibly turned his neck and lifted the arm that was still on his body.

Following this movement, the arm of the man in the veiled cap, which was connected to that arm with a silk thread, also moved.

Everyone could see that the machine in the man's hand didn't move at all.

But King Yunjiang's body moved by itself!
The man in the veiled hat opened his eyes wide in astonishment, the only movable eyeballs in his body quickly swept his gaze back and forth between Yun Hongshan and the crotch of his arm, his pale face was so shocked that veins popped out.

How can this be?

how can that be!

"Yun Hongshan" seemed to see what he was thinking, and grinned at him with a smile.

"Ho..."

There was a vague neighing in his throat, as if a person who had just woken up was trying his own throat.

Yun Chao on the side, seeing such a scene, was completely frozen there like in an ice cave.

Not only him, but even Concubine Xiao was shocked, "Wang, wang, lord, you, you..."

"Hey..." Yun Hongshan's body turned his head towards her.

His dark, cold pupils looked straight into her eyes.

With a very stiff voice, he said to Xiao Wangfei: "My concubine, I haven't seen you for a few days, do you miss me?"
