After the death of the previous emperor, the Empress Dowager became arrogant

Although she really wanted to ask what was put in there, her strong intuition made her give up the idea immediately.

"Do you remember what I told you, that I have a live Yin-Yang Gu in my hand?" Lu Zhao looked up at her.

"I remember," Yuan Qing looked at the young man and had a vague guess in his mind, "Could it be related to him?"

"The last time he came to the inn and tried to attack you, he was carrying the Yin Yang Gu."

After Lu Zhao said this, Yuan Qing immediately felt a layer of cold sweat on his back.

What does he mean?

Lu Zhao continued, "The Yin Gu is already in his body, and the Yang Gu wants to be planted in you. Think carefully about what's going on here."

Yuan Qing was suddenly excited. She suddenly looked at the young man, "Who is behind you?"

The young man was intimidated by Lu Zhao's eyes. He wanted to get angry, but he didn't dare to. He could only stare at Yuan Qing and said unhappily: "Who knows? You said I was begging for food in a dilapidated temple, and suddenly I was kidnapped by a group of people and fed a worm to me."

His face turned grim. "Then they showed me a portrait and asked me to come to you. They wanted you to accept it and feed you another worm. But you found me before I could do anything."

Lu Zhao spoke up at this time: "Take another good look at his face."

He shouted at the young man, "Raise your head, don't block it."

Yuan Qing looked at the boy's face carefully several times, and the more he looked, the more he felt something was wrong.

Lu Zhao asked the boy to go out first.

He clasped his hands together and said lazily, "What did you see?"

"He..." Yuan Qing swallowed, "He looks like someone I know."

Not to mention anything else, just based on that face, he is 70% similar to Gong Qinshan.

With Lu Zhao's reminder, Yuan Qing immediately realized the secret behind this.

Could it be that this young man is Gong Qinshan’s biological son, the legitimate fifth young master of the Gong family?

It's impossible, how could it be such a coincidence?

"I haven't found out his true identity yet, but based on my observations these days, he grew up among beggars. That's true. Even the poisonous insect was planted not long ago. He is straightforward, a bit childish, and naughty. He doesn't look like a spy trained in those places, so it's basically impossible that he is a chess piece they arranged in advance."

He turned around and asked her, "I heard that you liked to recruit people everywhere before?"

Yuan Qing glanced at him and said, "I don't accept just anyone. I have conditions, too."

Lu Zhao looked at her meaningfully and said, "Let's make a hypothesis. If you had found him in the inn and found the shadow of Gong Qinshan in him, what would you do then?"

"Of course I will investigate first and prove it step by step."

"What if all the evidence matches?"

Yuan Qing's brain was shocked, "Then I..."

Then she would secretly communicate with the head of the Gong family and tell them that "Gong Bin" was still alive.

At that time...

Lu Zhao seemed to have read her mind. "If the Gong family believes that you are in league with those people, and then they try to alienate you from the Gong family, and then spread your background to the public, you will be criticized by everyone."

Isolated and helpless, he could only be imprisoned and wait for death.

"Girl, it's not that the master won't help you, it's just that the rules of heaven are very strict and you have violated them. Fortunately, the Jade Emperor hasn't noticed yet. Just treat this as a calamity and let it go!"

"How can I pretend it never happened? If he died, I wouldn't be able to live either. He and I have become one." Yan Xiaosheng took out the red thread from his arms, his hands shaking.

When the old man saw the red thread, he thought it was the thread of marriage, and asked anxiously, "Did you use this thread? Tell the master that this is not real!"

Yan Xiaosheng lowered his head in pain, and the old man looked like he was struck by lightning.

Marriage lines cannot be used between immortals and mortals. He grabbed Yan Xiaosheng's shoulders and said, "Girl, do you know that you will be trapped in love for generations and never be reborn? What do you want your master to do with you if you do this?"

"I'm sorry, Master. Sheng'er can't live without him!"

The old man slowly calmed down, and felt distressed when he saw Yan Xiaosheng's dazed look.

There are currently only two methods, either drink the forgetfulness potion or enter reincarnation.

As long as she gives up on that man, she can return to heaven.

After careful consideration, he secretly brought back the love potion from Yue Lao.

This matter cannot be made public, otherwise it will be a big trouble.

Compared with reincarnation, Yao Lao chose a simple medicine and coaxed Yan Xiaosheng into drinking it.

After a while, I thought it might be effective, but unexpectedly, Yan Xiaosheng almost fell into a state of madness, still muttering Xu Feng.

Yao Lao was puzzled as to why the first method didn't work. He made up his mind and thought that the second method seemed to be the only option.

If it weren't for the urgent situation, Master really wouldn't want to let you suffer the pain of reincarnation.

Without any doubt, Yao Lao transferred his spiritual energy into Yan Xiaosheng's body to suppress the restless aura.

When Yan Xiaosheng woke up, he begged Yao Lao to save Xu Feng.

Yao Lao shook his head and said awkwardly: "I can't do anything. If it was before, Xu Feng would only be imprisoned, and someone would save him afterwards. But now, everything is too late. I'm afraid now..."

After hearing this, Yan Xiaosheng fell to the ground with a look of disbelief.

No...it's impossible. He told me a few days ago to go home and wait for him. He also said that everything would be fine. His tone was so gentle, how could it be fake?

"Master, he didn't lie to me. I was waiting for him at home obediently. Look, he came to find me." Yan Xiaosheng raised his arm and pointed forward.

Yao Lao looked over and saw that the front was empty. He hugged the silly Yan Xiaosheng with heartache.

Silly girl!

Yao Lao couldn't bear to see Yan Xiaosheng in so much pain, so he decided to help Xiaosheng fulfill his wish.

If he was discovered, it would be just a matter of life and death. He had lived enough anyway.

Besides, he only has this one disciple, and he can't bear to let her suffer!

After resting for a few days, Yao Lao took advantage of Yan Xiaosheng's better condition to discuss things with her.

"Master, you know, I was the one who harmed him. I am right, right? I am a troublemaker. I actually harmed him this time..."

"Xiao Sheng, Master knows you are in pain, so he has thought of a way to help you. However, you have to hide it from the immortals in heaven, otherwise you will be struck by five thunderbolts."

The next morning, I prepared a sedan chair to enter the palace.

When I was about to get on the sedan chair, a group of people came towards the general's mansion. They looked like they were from the imperial palace.

Eunuch He, who was walking in front, said, "Empress Zhen, please get on the sedan chair. The emperor wants his servant to take you back to the palace."

I didn’t think much about it and just followed them.”

The emperor saw me and didn't say anything, so I took this opportunity to say, "Your Majesty, can you agree to one of my requests?"

The emperor nodded.

"Your Majesty, I don't want to stay in the palace. This is not a place for me to survive. I hope Your Majesty can give me a way out."

"Why? Why don't you want to stay by my side?"

"For so long, I have been trying to feel everyone around me. Especially when I went to the Liao Dynasty, I felt the value of freedom even more. Besides, I am used to freedom and don't like being bound by the red tape in the palace. Long Cheng and I once promised each other that we would never leave each other and he would be my lifelong support."

"Since this is the case, I have no choice but to help you. I have won the hearts of the people and the world, but I cannot win your heart."

The emperor sighed and left, and I felt a lot more relieved, as if a heavy weight had finally been put down in my heart.

After getting the emperor's permission, I left the palace.

Long Cheng also resigned from his official position, and we lived in this prosperous place forever, fulfilling our original promise of never leaving each other.

It is said that they came for the treasure of our mermaid tribe. Do you want to...

No, please invite them in.

The Silver Dragon King, along with the Great Elder Long Zhentian, slowly walked towards the man who was leisurely enjoying the incense on the high seat.

The man only took a quick glance and knew why they were there.

How come Silver Dragon King has time to come to my deserted Ice Crystal Palace today?

Come here, take a seat!

The man waved his hand, and two waiters brought chairs and snacks to them, then hurriedly left.

The Silver Dragon King then looked up at the person who was speaking and couldn't help but admire him.

I have long heard that the mermaids are all extremely handsome and possess the appearance of immortality.
