Chapter 34 Dead End

"But it was clearly the deputy who sent me the message at that time."

He Yaoguang is very sure, "There is also the art of exorcising corpses among the people. Even if there are experts and strangers who can make the corpse neither stiff nor rotten, move freely and even speak, it is impossible to make a corpse completely look like another person." .”

Yan Conling listened carefully to her analysis, "So, you think this corpse is just a cover-up?"

"There is a corpse control technique, and I did find evil in this little eunuch."

He Yaoguang took out a jade gourd no bigger than a palm, handed it to her and said, "But I trust my own judgment more. The person who stood in front of me before was the deputy himself."

He Yaoguang didn't like her, and even the gourd he carried with him refused to deal with her.

After casting the spell several times and still seeing no movement, Yan Conling discovered that the gourd was completely opposite to the opening direction of his master's door.

The moment he opened the seal, a familiar cold air seeped out.

She quickly resealed the gourd, frowned and threw it back to He Yaoguang, "This is the same evil spirit that caused the prince's bloody horse to get out of control."

This also made it more certain that the frightened horse was not an accident.

He Yaoguang's first reaction was, "Could someone want to harm the prince?"

After all, the court was supported by the regent who worked hard in the past, so even though the old emperor was so ridiculous, he could still eat, drink and have fun for decades.

Nowadays, the biggest dependence is on the sick bed, and the mountain is falling. There is no guarantee that someone underneath will have some inappropriate thoughts.

Among the many heirs of the old emperor, excluding Ning Fengli, the daughter of the late empress, only Ning Junzhan was the legitimate son. Although the current Queen Wu's natal family is not as good as before, it has the support of the regent, and the Seven Kings are weak and sick.

Therefore, the only ones who can compete with them are the third prince Ning Muting and the sixth prince Ning Mozhang, who is under the knee of Concubine Yao...

"wrong."

Yan Conling shook his head, recalling the scene he had seen from a high place before, and his expression became solemn, "The prince's horse originally belonged to the third prince."

But Ning Junzhan happened to take a fancy to his horse and snatched it away...

Although, something happened to Ning Muting in the end.

"Although the third prince said that his uncle's family is prominent and his ancestors are heroes, but..."

He Yaoguang didn't say the next words.

No matter how eye-catching he is, he can't compare to Ning Mozhang, the biological son of Concubine Yao. A true son is as valuable as his mother.

If it was a battle for the throne, he shouldn't be the one taking the lead.

"So it shouldn't be because of this." Yan Conngling shook his head and then thought about it.

"The deputy doesn't remember what happened to him. He may have actually met the young eunuch, but his memory was probably washed away at that time."

He Yaoguang also gradually smoothed things over.

"When he saw the little eunuch's body, he was infected with evil spirits and was controlled. When he sent me a false message and returned, the evil spirits returned to the body. That's why he didn't remember anything during the interrogation..."

She seemed to think of something, paused, and her breathing became rapid, "No, I didn't feel any evil energy in the deputy at that time!"

This is also the most important reason for being deceived.

Yan Conling pondered for a moment, "Are you sure? Why don't you think about it again?"

"Yan Conling, what do you mean?"

He Yaoguang would only doubt that his deputy was not evil and would not doubt his own abilities.

This is where things hit a dead end.

We can only put it on hold temporarily and wait for new clues to serve as a breaking point...

The returning birds return to their nests, and under the shadow of the dancing trees shrouded in the setting sun, the moon-white figure can be seen in the distance. The simple and elegant colors cannot conceal the gorgeous appearance, but instead make it more vivid.

When he saw her, the young man's eyes lit up. I subconsciously wanted to step forward, but for some reason I stopped.

A ray of light suddenly appeared in his mind, and Yan Conling calmly put away the thoughts in his eyes, with the usual smile on his face.

"Why are you here too?"

She took his hand affectionately, like all newlyweds who are deeply in love. You still have to put on a disguise in front of others, especially with so many people today.

"I……"

Lou Qixue was speechless and looked at her with a vague look.

Since his intervention, many things have been different from the previous life and have gradually deviated from their original trajectory. This is a good thing and a bad thing.

His final outcome before deviating is that he will be killed. But after the deviation, he couldn't accurately predict what kind of danger she would encounter next.

The sight of her covered in blood that day was still lingering in my mind. The more I thought about it, the more panicked she became. When I panicked, I began to regret it...

"After the autumn hunting, you can have a good rest for a few days." The girl leaned next to him, suddenly pulled up his sleeves and asked, "You have been in the Imperial Capital for so long, and you haven't even put on any clothes, right?"

Lou Qixue did not answer.

Not sure what she wanted to do.

"Go in and take a look?"

Yan Conngling pointed to the newly opened clothing store not far away.

The other party didn't resist and allowed her to pull him through the door.

The shop was filled with the warm fragrance of rouge and gouache. The proprietress, who was wearing a bright red gauze dress and was bold and bold, was leaning on the counter, holding a handful of melon seeds in her hand. Seeing a female guest dragging a man in, she was stunned for a moment.

"Girl, is this your husband?"

The girl responded briskly, "Yes."

"Look, young people are so in love, they even buy clothes in pairs!"

The proprietress smiled and joked, and several embroiderers in the shop couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively.

"It's a pity that my shop has just opened, and the young men's clothes haven't been put out yet. Your husband's clothes will have to be looked at next time. But if you want to buy, girl, I do have a few suitable ones here!"

The landlady came up to look at her, she was very enthusiastic and praised her without hesitation.

"The girl has a good figure and a slender waist. She looks good in anything she wears. These summer clothes are all made by the sisters in the shop. Unfortunately, spring and autumn are short, winter is long, and summer is long. I didn't calculate the time well. It was almost the end of autumn when the shop opened."

She led Yan Congling to several pieces of ready-made clothes.

"Girl, take a look. If there are any that can close your eyes, I'll sell them to the girl cheaply."

The clothes are fashionable in style and exquisitely embroidered, so they will not go out of style even in a few years. It is indeed not to fool her in a hurry to sell.

Yan Conling only glanced at it, and her eyes were attracted by one of the goose-yellow gauze skirts.

"Sister, can you try this on?"

"this?"

The landlady was a little surprised, and then her eyes lit up, "Girl, you are really discerning. I originally made this piece for myself, but it shrunk after being soaked in water and I can't wear it. If girl likes it, choose another one and I will wear this one." Give it directly to the girl!”

Yan Conling thanked him, lowered his eyes, and suddenly noticed a big red crane cloak hidden inside. He stretched out his hand to get it, but the expressions of the embroiderers behind him changed drastically and they hurriedly stepped forward to stop it.

"Girl, girl! We don't sell this crane cloak!"

The girl was considerate and asked calmly, "Is there any other explanation in there?"

"Oh, I'm not going to hide it from the girl. She really got it right."
