Chapter 118 Entering the Palace (Part [-])
The so-called soul exchange is to use the soul to knock out the original soul of the person from the body, or directly kill the soul, and then replace it with another soul to achieve the effect of controlling that person.This kind of spell is far superior to the puppet technique, and it is not known that it can make Li Daitao stiff.

Who would have thought that the person is still the same person, but the core inside has already been replaced.

Haitang and Shaoyao were so shocked that they were speechless when they heard this kind of unheard-of spell for the first time, but Shu Dan asked solemnly, "Then if the fifth Shi Yan is in a high position, if he uses this magic spell to kill people in the court?" If the important ministers or the patriarchs of the seven major families have been replaced, wouldn't it be equivalent to holding Chuyang Kingdom in his hands?"

Wan Teng Zhuyin glanced at Shu Dan appreciatively, but she didn't expect her to see the problem quite accurately, and she could grasp the key points at once.

Xiao Xinghan looked at Shu Dan with admiration, and he explained with a smile: "That's not the case, the soul-changing technique is not something that can be replaced by just finding a soul, even if an ordinary soul is injected into the body, it will be very difficult. It will be dissipated soon, and only the soul that has been specially refined can exist in the human body for a long time. Refining such a soul needs to consume a lot of spiritual power of the caster, and the same spell cannot be cast for a period of time. spells, so changing the soul is not so easy to use."

"Mr. Xiao is right," Wan Qi Zhuyin added, "the soul-changing technique also has one of the biggest disadvantages, that is, even if a refined soul is forcibly injected into a person's body, it will slowly fade away. Die, and then, that person will quickly turn into a mummy, with no medicine or stone."

This is why resurrecting a person cannot be done with soul exchange but with instigating.

The soul injected into the body of a person who is not the body has a life cycle. Once the time has passed, the resurrected person needs to take in a new energetic soul again.As for the soul-changing technique, because the body of the soul-changing person has been devoured by the refining soul for a long time, when the soul dies, the body has exceeded the range it can support, and is exhausted along with the soul.

Shi Qi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "What we should be concerned about right now is not whether Fifth Shiyan has used the soul-changing technique on anyone, but where is his soul going?"

Wan Tengzhuyin glanced at Xiao Xinghan and asked, "Does Mr. Xiao think about this?"

You know, most people don't lose their souls for no reason. There is usually only one reason for this to happen, that is, he sold his soul in exchange for power or something else.

She has seen this kind of thing in her previous life, but the people who can make this kind of contract with people are generally not human beings.

No matter in the world she used to be or in the Cangze Continent, the one who is in charge of the souls of all living beings is Lord Taishan - a god as old as Pan Gu, the creator of the world, and also the first batch of gods born in the world.The life and death of the monarch of Taishan Mansion, the longevity, the noble and the humble, the family is in the dark, the power is involved, the crime is resolved, the injustice is solved, and the heaven and the earth protect the country and the people.

However, as far as she knew, Lord Taishan was only in charge of the affairs of the underworld and would never intervene in the affairs of the yang world. Even if he performed the Lord Taishan Sacrifice, not everyone could do it.

She had read the records in the book that Abe Seimei was the best at this technique in the Heian period, and he could exchange life and death for others. Of course, that level of Taishan Mansion Monarch Sacrifice requires the cooperation of special spells and spiritual skills, and more importantly, there must be Only with the authorization of the lord of the Fu, can the spell of exchanging life and death luck be performed on behalf of others.

She didn't know much about this continent, and she didn't know that besides Lord Taishan, there were any gods or beasts that could control the souls of humans.

Xiao Xinghan obviously also wanted to go with Wanqi Zhuyin, he frowned and said: "It's just that he was deprived of his soul unilaterally, it can't be the Taishan Mansion Lord Sacrifice, I think, he may be with someone in the underworld." The ghost messenger signed a contract and exchanged his soul for something."

Wan Teng Zhuyin supported his chin with his elbows on the table, and said, "So the master he's talking about shouldn't be from the underworld, right?"

If the person behind Fifth Shiyan was really the one who deprived him of his soul, that person would not allow him to use the soul-stirring technique to cultivate a new soul.

What a headache!
Wan Tengzhuyin curled his lips, looked up at Xiao Xinghan and said, "Since you have no clue, let it go, Mr. Xiao, I will leave the matter of Fifth Shiyan to you. Shi Qi and the others are all monsters, so get close to him." It’s not easy, and I have to trouble Mr.

"Whatever Miss said, these are what I should do." Xiao Xinghan smiled and bowed his hands politely.

"Mr. Shudan can take care of the affairs of the mansion," Wan Qizhuyin said with a smile and glanced at Shudan behind him, "Fifth Shiyan was seriously injured by me today, so I think he will have to hide for a while to recuperate." Now, Mister can take advantage of these few days to give Shudan some good advice, and I think she will be able to replace Mr. as the housekeeper of Wanqi Mansion in a short time."

When Shu Dan waved his hands again and again, he panicked and said: "No, no, miss, don't be joking, how can the servant He De take on such a big responsibility!"

Xiao Xinghan laughed twice, and without giving Shudan a chance to refuse, he said directly: "I think Miss's method is feasible, so it's settled. From tomorrow morning, Shudan, you will go to the office to find me. I'll start with I will teach you the calculations."

Shu Dan: "..."

Can she say no?
How can a little woman who came from a poor village by herself be able to take on the position of housekeeper of the Wanqi Mansion?I'm afraid that some important guests or troublemakers will come to the mansion at that time, if she can't handle it well, it will embarrass the young lady and Wanqi's mansion!
Wan Teng Zhuyin looked at Shu Dan's mournful face, smiled and patted her hand to comfort her: "Okay, cheer up, and start studying hard with Mr. Xiao tomorrow, I believe you can do it very good."

Shao Yao said: "That's right, Sister Shudan, you are the most daring and careful among the three of us, you will definitely be able to be a good housekeeper."

Haitang also smiled and said: "Well, I also think that Sister Shu Dan is brave and resourceful, and she is as careful as a hair. Being a maid is really a bit overkill. It is best for you to be the housekeeper of Wanqi Mansion."

"You..." Shu Dan stared at the two of them speechlessly, and after a while turned to Wanqi Zhuyin and said firmly, "Since the young lady values ​​the servant so much, the servant must do his best to take over the mansion as soon as possible." The butler work in the house, so that Mr. Xiao and Ms. Xiao no longer have to worry about the future."

"Very good." Wanqi Zhuyin nodded in satisfaction.

Sure enough, I didn't misread her, and it really made sense.

With Mo Mingxian acting as a hindrance, Wanqi Mansion will not be able to live for a few days.However, being unable to live doesn't mean that the mansion is useless, on the contrary, the mansion is very useful, a lot of money and people that she can't take out can be put here.Originally, only Yan Fu was left here to guard, she was still not at ease, but now with Shu Dan, she can feel at ease.

After solving the problem of the fifth Shi Yan and Shu Dan, Wan Qi Zhuyin waved away the crowd, and together with Xiao Xinghan strengthened the barriers set up in every corner of the mansion, and arranged touch-sensitive mechanisms on the barriers.

After the enchantment is set up, Wu Niang and the other monsters can leave Wanqi Zhuyin's room and move freely.

"Little Kiki!"

When she saw Shi Qi who hadn't seen him for a long time, Wu Niang, who had her head drooping because she had been lying in bed for several hours, suddenly rushed towards her as if she had been beaten with chicken blood.

This time Shi Qi didn't run away as soon as he saw Wu Niang like before, he raised his right hand and waved lightly at Wu Niang, a whirlwind rose and quickly blew towards Wu Niang, rolling her up into the air and fixing her, Only then did Shi Qi lift his foot and walked over.

Seeing him approaching, Wu Niang stopped struggling and softly called out: "Xiao Qiqi..."

Shi Qi interrupted her with a blank expression: "Wu Niang, it's a troubled time right now, I don't have extra time and mood to play with you, you'd better restrain me, if I continue to mess around like before, I will Report to His Highness, let His Highness call you back."

"I'm not just kidding, I'm just trying to seduce you, okay! Tell me what you're not satisfied with me, and I'll see if I can change it."

"I don't like you, let alone love you, Wu Niang, stop wasting your time on me, go find someone else."

Wu Niang was stunned for a moment, looking at Shi Qi with a cold expression, a trace of pain that she didn't even notice flashed across the charming Danfeng's eyes.

How is this going?How can there be a bitter taste in the mouth?
Could it be that she has a problem with her sense of taste?
And what is the reason for the throbbing pain in my heart?She also has a heart problem?
After waiting for a long time without Wu Niang's response, Shi Qi glanced at her thoughtfully, turned around with a cold face and left, but the coldness emanating from his body was worse than before.

Wu Niang looked at Shi Qi's back and blinked her eyes, then came back to her senses and shouted: "Hey, Xiao Qiqi, don't go, we haven't finished talking yet!"

"..."

"If you don't say it, don't say it, you put me down... ah——"

Before Wu Niang finished speaking, she saw Shi Qi waving with his back on his back, with a "plop", Wu Niang fell down in response, and sat down on the ground.

Not far away, Wanqi Zhuyin looked at this scene, a little funny.

Looking at Shi Qi who walked away with a face full of coldness, and then at Wu Niang who was still sitting on the ground in a daze, Wan Cheng Zhuyin shook his head, then turned and went back to the room.

Alas, everyone is a goose, isn't it?However, the relationship is the most difficult thing to talk about. As an outsider, she really can't get in the way, so they can only figure it out by themselves.

Most importantly, it's fun to watch.

Nothing happened all night, Wan Teng Zhuyin had a good sleep, and got up at dawn the next day and practiced luck for an hour. When Wu Niang made breakfast, she simply ate the carriage sent by the harem to pick her up.

Wan Teng Zhuyin changed into a red dress unhurriedly, casually tied her hair in a bun, picked up a jasper hairpin from the table and inserted it obliquely on top of the bun.

Haitang looked behind her, and asked worriedly: "Miss, you only wear one hairpin, don't you use other jewelry?"

Anyway, it's also a face-to-face saint in the palace. Is it really good to be so casual and simple?
Wan Teng Zhuyin turned around and pinched her face, and said with a lazy smile: "Little Haitang, I'm going to meet the saint, not to meet the lover, why are you dressed so grandly?"

The corners of Haitang's mouth twitched, and she was powerless to refute Wan Chengzhu's surprising words from time to time.Forget it, Miss is not a fool, she must have her reasons for doing so.

If Wan Teng Zhuyin knew what Haitang was thinking, she would definitely laugh out loud. There was no great reason why she did this, it was purely laziness.Wan Teng Zhuyin didn't like to wear any jewelry in her last life, not to mention trouble, it would get in the way when fighting.After time-traveling, she already finds such cumbersome ancient clothes very annoying, and if she is asked to wear any bangs, bracelets and earrings, it would be a disaster just thinking about it!
Everything was ready, Wan Teng Zhuyin put the small box containing the Bana flowers in her arms, and then walked slowly to the front yard.

The old lady who had been waiting in the front yard for a quarter of an hour, had long been impatient, heard a burst of unhurried footsteps, raised her eyes viciously to look at the person who came, and was stunned for a moment.

The girl in front of her was dressed in red, bright and charming, with a smile on her lips. She looked lazy and casual, but gave off a dazzling, bright and fiery feeling.

This is the daughter of Princess Anran—Wanqi Zhuyin?
She is so stunning, even the Crescent Queen who is the most beautiful in the harem can't compare.

"I'm really sorry to keep eunuch waiting for so long." Wan Qi Zhuyin walked up to the old eunuch, looked at him with a half-smile and said.

The old eunuch withdrew his thoughts and coughed lightly to cover up his gaffe just now, "What the princess said really upset the miscellaneous family. It was the time when the miscellaneous family didn't make it clear yesterday. It happened so suddenly, it's understandable that the princess didn't have time to prepare." .”

The meaning inside and outside the words is to accuse Wan Qi Zhuyin, His Majesty has come back to invite someone for the second time. You are not ready to wait early in the morning, but you are ashamed to make Your Majesty wait so long!

How dare a mere eunuch show off to her?
Even if Murong Tingshen gave her the title of princess just to silence everyone, it's not like anyone can play wild on her head!
Wan Tengzhu sounded a cold snort in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and said with a light smile: "Your Majesty is still waiting in the palace, let's set off now."

This is insinuating, it's getting late, so stop talking nonsense.

The old eunuch's face turned green and then pale, he opened his mouth and wanted to say something more, but Wan Cheng Zhuyin didn't give him a chance, he went straight out of the house to the carriage, lifted the curtain and got on the carriage.

"..."

The old eunuch held back his breath and stared at the closed curtain for a long time before turning around and going out to board the carriage, sat next to the coachman and groaned, "Let's go!"

Watching the carriage drive away quickly, Haitang looked at Xiao Xinghan who was at the side with some concern, and asked: "Mr. Xiao, is it not dangerous for Miss to enter the palace by herself?"

Xiao Xinghan shook his head calmly, "Don't worry, miss has just returned to the capital, the rumors about the princess and miss in the city have not dissipated, and all the big families are also watching, Emperor Kui dare not take action against miss blatantly, besides Now, with Miss's ability, Emperor Kui won't be able to do it so easily even if he wants to."

Haitang thought about it, and looked at the direction the carriage was leaving, and followed Xiao Xinghan into the mansion.

Wanqi Mansion is not far from the imperial city, and the carriage stopped at the gate of the palace in less than a stick of incense.

"Princess Zhenxian, please get out of the car."

Outside the carriage, the shrill voice of the old eunuch sounded again, and Wan Qizhu's voice gave goosebumps all over his body.

Getting off the carriage, Wanqi Zhuyin saw a sedan chair waiting in front of the palace gate, the old eunuch waved his hand, and four bearers carried the sedan chair to Wanqi Zhuyin.

"Princess, please." The old eunuch waved his hand in a respectful gesture, as if the arrogant cynicism before was just an illusion of Wanqi Zhuyin.

"Thank you, Eunuch." Wan Tuzhuyin got into the sedan chair calmly, and glanced at the old eunuch the moment he turned around, just in time to catch the flash of viciousness in his eyes.

Oh, want to play dirty?

It doesn't matter, it just so happens that she is not in a good mood recently, and she has nowhere to vent her depression. Since someone is going to hit the gun, she doesn't mind pouring out her anger on him.

The old eunuch saw Wanqi Zhuyin getting into the sedan chair, the corners of his mouth sank when he turned around, his face was gloomy and cold, his hands gathered in his wide sleeves slightly turned the end of the dust whisk handle, and he glanced at it out of the corner of his eyes. Xiang Zhuyin, who was on the sedan chair, saw her staring at the palace in amazement, with a strange smile on her lips.

Hmph, I thought that Princess An Ran's daughter would be such a great person, but she was nothing more than an idiot who grew up in the wild!

Just take your time, it is your luck to die in this prosperous and beautiful palace!
