The uncle borrowed some merits, and the princess drew the talisman fiercely

"My lord, they are here."

Someone pulled out two maids from behind the rockery.

One of them held his head and trembled.

The other one supported her, feeling helpless and terrified.

"Your Highness, the one holding her head is Shui Xin," Lord Chen said to Zhou Shiyue, "She's the poor maid Buhanda dragged along with him earlier. She was so frightened that she didn't dare look at anyone and couldn't answer questions."

"The one next to her is the maid who takes care of her. Her name is Xiaoqin."

When Master Chen said this, he suddenly thought of something and immediately lowered his voice again. He said to Zhou Shiyue mysteriously, "By the way, Your Highness, you should know the maid Shui Xin."

Ok?

Zhou Shiyue looked at the maid, "Should I know her?"

How come he didn't know when they met?

"Because these two maids are cousins, Shui Xin's mother is Aunt Yao, who was by Concubine Long's side back then."

"Aunt Yao?"

Zhou Shiyue was stunned for a moment when he heard this long-lost name.

Aunt Yao was sent to serve his mother when she first entered the harem. It is said that she was only fourteen or fifteen years old when she first came to his mother's side.

Aunt Yao served Concubine Long until Zhou Shiyue was born.

And two months before he was born, it was said that Concubine Long had already promised her to leave the palace.

After Zhou Shiyue was born, Aunt Yao left the palace.

There was no news after that.

After Zhou Shiyue started memorizing the events, he was curious about who was around his mother back then, so he checked the palace books and heard about Aunt Yao.

He asked someone to inquire about Aunt Yao's whereabouts and heard that she had returned to the countryside and had a brother, sister-in-law, and several nieces and nephews at home.

My father knew that he was investigating these things, so he told him a lot about Aunt Yao.

Back then, Aunt Yao was the one who served Mother the best, and Mother loved her very much. It was because Mother knew that Aunt Yao actually didn't like staying in the deep palace that she let her out.

It is said that at that time, the mother gave Aunt Yao a sum of money, a piece of land and a farm, which was enough for her to live a good life.

When Zhou Shiyue was a few years old, he sent someone to check and found out that Aunt Yao was living a good life with her family.

At that time, there were few people around him whom he could trust, and Nanny Qing even suggested to him that he invite Aunt Yao to the Prince of Jin's Mansion to help take care of him.

But Zhou Shiyue thought about it for a long time and decided to forget it. Since his mother had already let Aunt Yao leave the palace and let her live the life she wanted, why did she drag her to the palace?

The people around him would also be in danger at that time.

Zhou Shiyue also felt that since he didn't want Aunt Yao to have contact with people in the palace again, he'd better stop paying attention to her. Only if it really didn't matter to her would he not bring her any trouble.

But now he actually met Aunt Yao's daughter?

Not only daughters, but also nieces.

Logically speaking, Aunt Yao could live a good life, so why did she let her daughter and niece become maids?

Although the maids who can enter the royal villa are already the best among the maids, if there are no masters or distinguished guests coming, the maids here are usually relatively idle, and their allowance is not small.

Although there is no chance of getting rewards, there is also no chance of angering the master and getting beaten or punished.

But they were also sold into slavery.

Aunt Yao had finally managed to leave the palace, so why would she let her daughter go down this path?

Her daughter is now encountering such a thing.

Zhou Shiyue glanced at Lord Chen.

This look made Master Chen shrink his neck.

Of course he knew what mistake he had made. Aunt Yao was a person from the past, yet he not only mentioned her but also said that the prince should know her. This was somewhat of a casual guess about the prince's thoughts.

but--

"Your Highness, I feel that I must be extremely careful and cautious with the people and matters concerning you."

Lord Chen added, "When Buhanda got into trouble, I naturally investigated the maid Shui Xin who was present at the time. During this investigation, I discovered that her mother was Aunt Yao."

"You said Buhanda's death was strange, and Shuixin is now so frightened. I will send someone to notify her family to question them. If Aunt Yao comes and mentions Concubine Long in front of everyone, I'm afraid some people will use her past identity to cause trouble and implicate you, Your Highness."

What if someone suspects that Shui Xin is playing tricks and scaring Buhanda to death, and then reveals Aunt Yao's original identity, saying that she might still be instructed by Prince Jin, and that Prince Jin intends to kill Buhanda? What should we do then?

"What happened between you and Miss Lu in the southwest has been reported back to the capital. You have a grudge against the Barbarian High Priest. If someone says that you and Miss Lu set up a plan to kill Buhanda in order to avenge the High Priest..."

"Buhanda is an envoy after all. No matter what the high priest did, he must not die in our capital. I'm afraid someone is deliberately trying to make you, Your Highness, bear the blame."

Mr. Chen was afraid that Zhou Shiyue would be angry, so he gave a long explanation.

But after he finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Shiyue's expression and immediately closed his mouth, and stretched out two fingers to pinch his lips.

Shut up, little mouth.

He is really talkative, saying so much.

"Master, take a look at these people." Zhou Shiyue ignored the nagging Master Chen and gestured for Yin Changxing to take a look at these people.

"it is good."

The two ghost messengers quickly went around again, but still couldn't find Buhanda's soul, so they returned here.

Zhou Shiyue saw them and whispered, "You two should take a look too. Everyone in the other courtyard is here."

The ghost nodded and followed to carefully see if any of those people were possessed.

Lord Chen kept his mouth shut, his eyes widening again as he looked at Prince Jin.

It comes again, who is the prince talking to?

Zhou Shiyue glanced at him again, then he realized something was wrong——

The two ghost messengers did not show up?

Lord Chen and the others couldn’t see it, so why did he see these two ghost messengers?

Could it be that the validity period of the third eye that Lu Xiaoer opened for him last time has not expired?

Yin Changxing came in front of the two maids Shui Xin and Xiao Qin.

He just heard what Lord Chen said.

Xiao Qin hugged Shui Xin and looked at Yin Changxing nervously.

"Let her look up so I can see her face." Yin Changxing first looked at Xiaoqin, then looked at Shui Xin, who had been holding her head and shrinking her neck.

If a soul controlled by a soul-chasing talisman has taken possession of a person, you can tell by looking carefully into the other person's eyes.

"Yes."

"Shui Xin, don't be afraid. There are no bad people here. Raise your head and show it to this master."

Xiao Qin carefully coaxed Shui Xin and added softly, "His Royal Highness Prince Jin is here too."

Shui Xin, who had been shivering, froze and stopped shivering when she heard these words.

Then she slowly lowered her hands from her head and raised her head timidly.
