The evil concubine who confuses the world, the spirit master who defies the sky

Chapter 54

In the afternoon, Ji Yehuan was called to the main hall by Ji Mingwu. When she took Seventeen to go, Ji Mingwu was stroking his beard with a worried expression on his face.

Ji Yehuan raised her eyebrows.This old man is actually worried?What a surprise.

If Ji Mingwu knew what she was thinking, he would definitely want to beat her up.The old man worries about her every day, but she looks heartless, which really hurts my liver.

Ji Yehuan walked to one side and sat down, and asked him, "What's the matter, old man?"

Ji Mingwu stared at Ji Yehuan, and said, "The emperor called me into the palace this morning, and ordered me to take Mr. Yue to the palace."

Ji Yehuan lazily leaned back in the chair: "Young Master Yue has left, is the emperor making things difficult for you on purpose?"

"So fast?!" Ji Mingwu stared.

He also thought that he could take advantage of Mr. Yue's power so that people would not dare to bully the brat at will.

I didn't expect Mr. Yue to leave so soon.

Ji Yehuan thought about it, and it didn't seem like a long time had passed since the palace banquet, and it was indeed quite fast.

Ji Yehuan also thought of Jiu Ge, the oiran who had met once at the palace banquet, and it seemed that she had never heard of him.

Could it be that the two left together?
"The emperor doesn't know that Mr. Yue has left the mansion." Ji Mingwu pulled his beard irritably: "Do you know where he went? If he is still in Beiqi, I can also go on business."

Ji Yehuan said, "Why would you tell me about Mr. Yue's itinerary? Why is Qi Yunlin looking for Mr. Yue?"

Ji Mingwu shook his head: "The emperor didn't say it bluntly, but I guess that he wants to refine the elixir."

He said: "There is no high-level alchemist in the entire Beiqi, including the Mu family. If the emperor wants a fifth-level elixir, can't he only find Mr. Yue?"

Ji Yehuan tapped the armrest with her fingers, and said lazily, "Qi Yunlin actually wants a fifth-level elixir? It's really ambitious."

Ji Mingwu said: "Northern Qi is declining day by day. Among the four second-tier countries, the status is no longer what it used to be. It is understandable that the emperor wants to strengthen the royal family and gain a firm foothold in the mainland. The royal family has a spirit king. The emperor may want to use Dan The medicine made the spirit king break through the spirit emperor."

Ji Yehuan spread his hands: "That's a pity, he came at a bad time."

Maybe it's not just Qi Yunlin, but other families or high-ranking officials want Gong Liyue to help them refine the elixir.

But because she couldn't figure out Gong Liyue's character, she was cautious again and again.

When they wanted to ask to come to the door, Gong Liyue had already left.

Ji Mingwu felt a little heavy.

If news of Gong Liyue's departure from Ji's Mansion spreads, the temporary peace of Ji's Mansion may soon be broken.

"I'll send someone to reply to the emperor, you son of a bitch, take a good rest."

Ji Yehuan didn't care about anything, and felt relaxed. After meditating for a long time and regained some mental strength, a guard came to report: "My lord, someone is here in the East Palace."

Ji Yehuan pondered for a moment.

In the memory of the original owner, she only met Prince Qi Mo a few times, and since she took over this body, she has never had any contact with Qi Mo.

"Let him in."

The prince's guard entered the room and handed Ji Yehuan an invitation: "Master Ji, the prince's birthday will be in two days. The prince will hold a birthday banquet in the East Palace, and invite Mr. Ji and Miss Liu to attend."

Ji Yehuan accepted the invitation, smiled and said, "I will definitely attend the appointment on time."

After the prince's guards left, Ji Yehuan said to Shiqi, "Seventeen, tell me about the situation in Kyoto."

Although the original owner has some memories, she is a real idiot with not many useful things.

Seventeen nodded and spoke eloquently.

Among the three major families, the Ji family stands on the sidelines, the Feng family and the Qin family support the second prince and the third prince respectively, and the prince Qi Mo seems to be in a weak position.

But Qi Mo has the support of the Feng family.

On the surface, the three major families in Kyoto are full of power, but in fact, the overall strength of the Feng family has been faintly equal to that of the three families, and there is a tendency to develop into the fourth largest family.

Qi Mo contacted the Ji family many times, and wanted to make the Ji family work for him, but was rejected by Ji Mingwu. The prince was gloomy and small-minded, and he was afraid that it would be hard to let go.

As for the Feng family, the Feng family has not been able to justifiably become one of the four major families because they do not have a strong spirit king. They are jealous and disdainful of the declining Ji family.

And because of the close relationship between the Feng family and the alchemy family, some big and small families that used to be attached to the Ji family also defected to the Feng family instead.

Seventeen's voice was calm, and a few words revealed the key point.

Ji Yehuan curled her fingers and tapped the table lightly.

If Qi Mo harbored resentment towards the Ji family, he would naturally not let her retreat easily.

The birthday banquet this time is very likely to be a Hongmen banquet.

Ji Yehuan curled her lips slightly.

If Qi Mo or the Feng family wanted to deal with her at the birthday banquet, then don't blame her for taking the Feng family's knife.
