Two treasure maps

Xiu Huang put the beast-taming bell back into his sleeve with a calm expression. He turned his gaze to Chang Tianlong and said calmly, "Go on."

Chang Tianlong was still immersed in the shock of "she dug up the Taiji Palace Gangfeng Well and dug out the spirit beads inside", and his admiration for Guo Lingli was like a torrent of water. This mortal woman could not only ascend to the twenty-sixth heaven, but also dig out the spirit beads, which were known to be rare treasures. Such courage and wisdom really made people admire her.

It was precisely because of Guo Lingli's heroic deeds that Chang Tianlong later came up with the idea of ​​breaking into the Heavenly Palace to file a complaint.

Seeing Chang Tianlong lose his composure, Xiu Huang tapped the armrest rhythmically to remind him to come back to his senses. Chang Tianlong then woke up as if from a dream, and quickly gathered his thoughts and continued to report: "Your Majesty, I met a sneaky woman near Guojiazhuang." He pointed at the unconscious woman on the ground, "I interrogated her and found out that she was a maid in the former Mu Enbo's mansion. Because she knew the identity of the girl of heaven punishment, she was killed. Fortunately, Guo Lin's wife Zhao Ying secretly rescued her and she survived by chance."

As he spoke, Chang Tianlong glanced at Xiu Huang with some pride. He thought Xiu Huang would be very interested in this matter. After all, the identity of the Heaven Punishment Girl had always been a mystery, and he had been investigating for seven years but had not been able to find out the truth.

However, he did not expect that Xiu Huang's expression was still as calm as water, as if he had no interest in this matter. Chang Tianlong was shocked. Could it be that Xiu Huang had gone to Guojiazhuang and found out which of the twins the girl from the Heaven Punishment was?

He didn't dare to keep it a secret any longer, and quickly said, "According to the maid Taoxiang, there was only one girl born on the day of the heavenly punishment, and that was Guo Fengli. And Guo Fengli was not Guo Lin's daughter, but the biological daughter of his brother Guo Bao."

Xiu Huang narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze was like a torch, as if he was thinking about what Chang Tianlong would say next. He gently stroked his sleeves, his expression was calm, and his tone revealed a hint of majesty: "Go on."

Chang Tianlong secretly groaned in his heart. He was now certain that the Emperor Xiu must have found out the truth about the girl who was punished by heaven. The slight hope he had originally held had now vanished. He had been investigating for seven years but had not been able to find out the truth, while the Emperor Xiu had already seen through everything. He could not help but feel a little ashamed.

However, he was not discouraged by this, but quickly adjusted his mentality and prepared to throw out another card in his hand. He thought that since he already knew the truth about the silver doll legend, he might be able to use this information to make up for his mistake.

So, he calmed down his inner emotions and respectfully reported to the Emperor Xiu: "Your Majesty, although Taoxiang escaped by chance, she dared not show her true face again, so she destroyed her appearance and lurked beside Zhao Ying. After investigation by my subordinates, the rumor that Zhao Ying had a silver doll hidden in his home and could grow another ear after cutting one was funded by this maid Taoxiang. Taoxiang is an outstanding embroidery worker. When she was in the former Mu Enbo Mansion, she created a unique embroidery method. However, because she was always restless, she did not have the opportunity to show it. It was not until she followed Zhao Ying and was guided by the immortal cultivator that she gradually perfected this embroidery method. Therefore, her embroidery was very popular and provided Zhao Ying with a continuous source of funds. All this was not noticed by Zhang, the biological mother of Guo Fengli. This time, Taoxiang went to Guojiazhuang to inquire about the news because almost all the people in Guojiazhuang were out, worried that Zhao Ying would no longer take care of her in the future, and was caught by me as a result."

Chang Tianlong reported everything in one breath, anxiously waiting for Emperor Xiu's reaction.

Xiu Huang nodded slightly, seeming to be quite satisfied with Chang Tianlong's investigation results. He said calmly: "Since her embroidery skills are so good, then she should stay in the Shangyi Bureau to embroider. By the way, you didn't search her soul, did you?"

Chang Tianlong quickly replied, "Absolutely not, Your Majesty. I know that soul searching can cause great damage to a person's mind, and may even turn her into a fool. Therefore, I dare not act on my own. After all, if searching her soul causes her to become stupid, then any intelligence I report will lose credibility. Therefore, I just conducted a routine interrogation of her."

Xiu Huang gently waved his hand and said, "If that's the case, then you can go down."

Chang Tianlong stood in the main hall of Yunhai Palace, hesitating for a moment. He glanced at Xiu Huang who was sitting on the dragon throne, and saw that Xiu Huang's eyes were deep and majestic, which made people shudder. He took a deep breath, mustered up his courage and said, "Your Majesty, I have something else to report."

Xiu Huang originally thought that Chang Tianlong had finished his report, but he didn't expect that he still had something to say, so he frowned slightly and said, "Go ahead."

Chang Tianlong said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, the spiritual energy of the Red Dragon Pond in Panshan has revived, and this matter is of great importance. I would like to ask, what plans does Your Majesty have for Guo Yun's family? Do you plan to reinstate him?"

Xiu Huang was displeased when he heard this. He knew that Chang Tianlong was testing his feelings, but thinking of his hesitation before, he knew that this matter was probably serious. So, he suppressed his displeasure and asked calmly, "What do you want to say?"

Chang Tianlong felt relieved when he saw that the Emperor Xiu was not angry, and said, "Your Majesty, this is what happened. Guo Ying and Yun Feng led their teams back from Wild Wolf Valley. Guo Ying suffered fewer casualties, but only four people returned from Yun Feng's team. Yun Xin and Qingyue Tianshi had a dispute over this matter, and later learned that Qingyue Tianshi was with Guo Lin's family, so he could not take care of Yun Feng's team. Qingyue Tianshi stepped in and asked the remaining four people to all be registered under Guo Yun's name, and changed their surnames to Guo."

When Emperor Xiu heard this, he sneered and said, "Do you think the surname of a country is easy to find? Anyone can have the surname. Guo Ying came up with it, and I didn't say anything, but they became even more unscrupulous."

Chang Tianlong felt nervous when he saw the Emperor Xiu getting angry, and he quickly explained, "Your Majesty, calm down. They have a reasonable explanation for doing this. Their reasons are similar to Guo Ying's, saying that those people are Guo Yun's illegitimate children outside. Moreover, Qingyue Tianshi also said that Guo Fengli will be blessed by heaven on her coming of age day, and a treasure map will appear. In order to protect her from being harmed, everyone made up the lie that the treasure map was on the missing twin sister Guo Lingli. Guo Lingli's biological mother Zhao Ying was anxious at the time, she said that the child was lost, not dead. Aren't you going to put the child to death by saying this?"

Chang Tianlong said this with a sigh on his face. He thought, the world is so wonderful. The girl who was punished by heaven had a treasure map, which was a great blessing, while the girl who was not punished by heaven had to bear the curse of the treasure map and endure the suspicion and pursuit of the world. Who is the real girl who was punished by heaven? Who can solve the mystery?
