Splendid Phoenix Journey: The Arrogant Princess

Chapter 189 Turning Point 2
Chu Mohan turned around slowly, and looked at the figure behind him.Xiao Bo pursed his lips, and a stream of light flashed from his eyes.

"Go and call me the third master."

Ying was taken aback for a moment, then nodded expressionlessly.Turning around, pushing open the door of the study and going out.

After half a quarter of an hour, the door of the study was pushed open from the outside.A handsome man in red came in, with a cynical smile on Xiao Bo's lips.

"Master, you are looking for a subordinate, but do you have any tasks for me?"

Excited light danced in his long and narrow eyes, he blinked and looked nervously at the indifferent man in front of him.

"Do you know of a bug that feeds on spices?"

Chu Mohan walked back behind the table, sat on the chair and leaned on his chin with one hand.The slender fingers tapped lightly on the smooth tabletop, making a thumping sound.

"I know, it's a secret method of a hidden tribe in the Eastern Region. But that tribe has never appeared in the eyes of the world, and no one knows that kind of secret method. Master, why did you suddenly ask this?"

The long and narrow eyes of the man in red were raised slightly, revealing an indescribably seductive feeling.The cynical smile on the corner of his mouth restrained a bit, and his thick eyebrows frowned slightly.

A flash of surprise flashed in Chu Mohan's eyes, and then he regained his composure.His thin lips lifted slightly, asking in a low voice.

"Don't you even know?"

The corner of the man's mouth twitched, and he coughed lightly twice: "Ahem, master, although everyone in the world calls his subordinates the third master Qin who knows everything. But the mainland of Kyushu is so big, how can the subordinates do anything? I know all about it. I have only heard of this secret technique, but have never seen it. I don’t know if it’s true or not, maybe it’s just a legend, after all, no one has ever seen that hidden tribe.”

The mainland of Kyushu is divided into four regions, east, west, north, south, and the northern region where they are located.The four great powers are located in the Western and Northern Regions, while the Eastern and Southern Regions are free territories.Most of the hidden families and forces are distributed there, which is different from their side.

Chu Mohan's eyes flickered slightly, what Ruo Ruhuan said was true.Then what kind of connection does Yufeng and Yushui next to Xiao Yu'er have with the hidden tribe in the Eastern Region, and will it endanger her safety?Maybe he should find time to have a good chat with Xiao Yuer about the origins of Yufeng and Yushui.

"Then do you have a way to make that kind of spice?"

The man in red's eyelids twitched. He had only heard about how it was possible to concoct that kind of spice.It's just that when he was about to speak, a beautiful face suddenly flashed in his mind.A look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he nodded quickly.

"Master, leave this matter to your subordinates. I think I know what to do."

Chu Mohan looked at the man in red whose attitude suddenly changed, opened his mouth and finally waved him back.

As soon as the man in red left, Ying walked in from the outside.Holding a bright yellow booklet in his hand, he quickly walked up to him.

"Master, this was just sent over from the palace."

Chu Mohan reached out to take the memorial, opened it and took a look.His eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"The crown prince married the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion as the crown princess, and chose two side concubines who are powerful behind the scenes. Some people finally couldn't bear it anymore."

He threw the bright yellow memorial aside, stood up slowly and brushed the hem of his clothes, and there were no wrinkles.The long and narrow Danfeng eyes condensed into ice, as if they wanted to freeze everything in the world together.

Ying frowned slightly, and looked at Chu Mohan who had a frosty face: "Master, but did the second and third princes make any moves?"

Chu Mohan shook his head slightly: "Although the third prince looks cynical, he is no less scheming than the second prince. He will not do anything at this time, and the emperor is still in a strong body now. The position of heir , I’m afraid it will take another two years. Unless.”

Chu Mohan didn't finish his words, but Ke Ying already understood.Unless someone couldn't bear it and attacked the emperor secretly.There are too many ways in this world to make a healthy person become weaker and weaker and eventually die without anyone noticing.

"If it's not the second prince and the third prince, who else would it be?" Ying was stunned and asked suspiciously.

Chu Mohan's slender fingers dipped some water in the cup, wrote a name on the table and lightly drew a circle.When Ying saw the name, his eyes moved slightly.They seem to have forgotten about the exile
"The prince is about to get married, and the border war is suddenly urgent. All of this is too coincidental. The border has been very stable for so many years. Why did it suddenly start to become restless?"

Ying looked at the sneering Chu Mohan, and frowned slightly: "The border is urgent, and the emperor will definitely send someone to go to the expedition. Although the old prince is still strong, in recent years, he has already ignored the affairs of the court and visited the mountains with the old princess." Went to play in the water. The emperor handed over the complete tiger talisman to the master, so the one who leads the troops this time is you, the master?"

Ying didn't like his master leading troops to fight, and the title of God of War seemed dazzling.But it was all fought on the battlefield, and the master was only 16 years old when he hated the old prince to go to war.Now four years have passed, and the stable life has only passed one year, and it is time to go out again.

"When I accepted the Tiger Talisman, I was already prepared."

Chu Mohan said calmly, he is not afraid to fight on the battlefield.But the most frightening thing is that once he leaves, he doesn't know when he will come back, and his little Yu'er just accepted him.He was afraid that she would be in danger in her absence.

"But, master"

Chu Mohan stood up, raised his hand to stop Ying's words.He knew that Ying had been by his side for many years, fighting with him on the battlefield and knowing how dangerous it was.

"Stop talking, follow me into the palace. The only thing I can't let go of now is her. Before I leave, I must help her rescue Yu Shui. Have you found where she is?"

Chu Mohan went around the table, walked to the side bookshelf and twisted the candlestick next to it.With a creak, the bookshelf moved while thinking.A hidden compartment appeared on the wall behind, and he took out a complete Tiger Talisman from the hidden compartment.

"We've found it. Miss Yushui is locked up in a remote room not far from Kyoto. But people are guarding all around, so it's very tight and it's not easy to rescue."

Ying looked at the tiger talisman in Chu Mohan's hand, his brows were furrowed and never relaxed.

"Well, if the third master comes back soon, let someone take him there, and sprinkle the spices he brought on the place where Yushui is."

Put the Tiger Talisman into his arms, and put the bookshelf back to its original position.He opened his mouth without haste, then pushed open the door of the study and walked out.Looking at the blue sky, the bright and beautiful face with a smile appeared in his mind.

Xiao Yuer, I don't know what you are doing right now.If you knew that I was about to leave, wouldn't you be a little bit reluctant.

Shen Wanyu was sitting in the wing room on the second floor of Drunken Dance Pavilion, leaning on her chin with one hand and looking at Shang Rui who was sitting opposite her.

"Xiao Ruirui, what did you do to Shen Wanqing?"

Shang Rui was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled: "It's nothing, I asked you last time for the medicine that can intensify people's emotions. Also, I applied a little medicine on the neon clothes and feather clothes that would make people feel hot." , That's why she appeared to have heatstroke. I originally calculated that she would pass out after dancing, but I didn't expect that she could bear it quite well. It's quite admirable that she could endure until then."

The corner of Shen Wanyu's mouth twitched, she was so merciless when she calculated people without Shang Rui first.She really wanted to ask, how did you manage to treat her like her own sister.

"By the way, I heard something happened to Yu Shui?" Shang Rui put down the hot milk in his hand and frowned.Although she didn't have much contact with Yu Shui, she knew that Yu Shui was very loyal to Shen Wanyu.

"Well, I asked her to monitor the fourth aunt. She found out, and she should be imprisoned by her now. But it's not life-threatening, and now I have found a way to save her."

Shen Wanyu took a sip of the hot milk, turned her eyes slightly and asked in doubt, "How do you know?"

She didn't seem to have told Shang Rui about it, how did she know?Seeing her puzzled look, Shang Rui frowned.

"There are only a few people around you. Now Xia Tian and Dong Mei are here with me. I don't know who is missing from the rest of the people? I guessed it when I saw your absent-minded appearance yesterday."

Shang Rui has always been a very smart person, but she put all her energy into making desserts.

Shen Wanyu looked at Shang Rui in astonishment, but she could guess these subtle things.It seems that she still doesn't know Shang Rui well enough.

"I came here today to ask for your help."

Thinking of her purpose of coming today, she waved to Shang Rui.Shang Rui raised his eyebrows and moved his head closer.Hearing Shen Wanyu's words in her ear, she let out a cry of surprise.

"You really want to do that?"

"Yes, I must do this if I want to become powerful. I will trouble you with this matter." Shen Wanyu nodded solemnly.

Shang Rui's eyes were full of tangles, and his brows were almost tied into a knot.After struggling with his thoughts for a long time, he sighed.

"I really don't know whether it's joy or sorrow when I meet you in my life, but I'll just go crazy with you once."

Shen Wanyu burst out laughing when she heard Shang Rui's words.She blurted out: "If we are not crazy, we will be old."

Shang Rui gave Shen Wanyu two supercilious glances, they are only fourteen or fifteen years old, okay?It's as if they are forty or fifty years old.

It was already dark when Shen Wanyu returned to Hou's Mansion from Zui Wu Xuan, and Yu Feng was already waiting in the courtyard with two men who were unfamiliar.Seeing her come back, Yufeng immediately stepped forward and spoke respectfully.

"Miss, everything is ready and you can leave at any time."
