He stood up. "With so many things to do, why did the person in the dark choose yesterday? The wedding at Prince Jin's mansion is heavily guarded. How could that person complete so many tasks in such a short time?"

Song Wu had actually thought about this question. "If there was something unusual in the palace before, I should have noticed it when I came here, but I didn't see it! There was nothing unusual yesterday either. It must be that person's quick hands and feet. I guess he must have some martial arts skills!"

Jiang Xing couldn't help but ponder, "But doing what I did yesterday, although I was taking advantage of the situation, was also much riskier. After all, there were twice as many guards as usual, and there were a lot of people present!"

Song Wu thought for a moment, "Then there are two possibilities. First, the prince's feigned illness has been discovered by someone with ulterior motives! Second, someone is worried that this grand wedding will really bring bad luck to the prince! So they have to kill the prince at the very moment of the wedding! That way, they can point the finger of blame at me!"

Jiang Xing agreed with Song Wu's statement. His anger burned through his body, and he slammed his fist on the desk: "Xuan Ge!"

"exist!"

"Secretly interrogate everyone who came yesterday, including the stables, the kitchen, and all the other departments within the mansion. Don't leave any one out!"

……

Today was supposed to be the day to return to the parents' home, but being entangled in such a big matter, Song Wu had no time to return to the Duke's Mansion, and Song Chuchu chose not to return.

Such a big thing happened yesterday, and the Marquis' Mansion cares so much about face that they will definitely feel embarrassed.

Once I leave the Marquis' Mansion, I might encounter a disaster along the way!

After all, if a person is sick, anyone can say that she had an accident because she was sick again!

Song Chuchu stood in the yard and called Chunxiao.

Chunxiao came over and asked, "What's the matter, Madam?"

Song Chuchu looked at the desolate garden and said, "Please go back to the uncle's house for me and bring over all the beauty products that my mother prepared for me! I'm sure they know about what happened yesterday. Go back and tell them not to worry. As long as they follow my instructions from now on, there will be a way to remedy the situation!"

"Okay ma'am!"

As soon as Chunxiao returned to Bo's house, she found the whole place dead and silent.

After explaining the purpose of the visit, Li ordered people to load the boxes of jade cream and many beauty products onto the carriage.

Song Chusi came back from the academy early and was immediately displeased when he saw the carriage of the marquis's mansion at the door.

"Is this my sister coming home?"

Chunxiao hurriedly bowed to him and said, "Master, the mistress hasn't returned yet, so she asked me to come back and get her bathing and beauty products."

Song Chusi pursed his lips and went straight to Li's room.

"Mother, Song Chuchu has married into the Marquis' Mansion, so don't send her many things from the Earl's Mansion!"

Mrs. Li was a little surprised by her son's reaction today: "Weren't you and Chuchu the best friends in the past? What happened today?"

Song Ming plopped down on the edge of Li's couch and said in dissatisfaction, "Today, when we went to the academy, my sister became the laughing stock of the entire academy. Everyone laughed at us, saying that our uncle's biological daughter turned out to be an epileptic!"

"Her illness is still sporadic. Who knows when the next one will be? It makes me feel like I can't even lift my head in the academy!"

Looking at her distraught son, Mrs. Li felt a dull pain in her heart.

Although Chuchu had made her feel guilty before, now, she was even more worried and afraid for her family.

After hearing Song Chusi say this, it was his son who felt more distressed!

She walked over and sat next to Song Chusi: "But what can we do? Your sister has already recognized her, she can't be lost again, right?"

Song Chusi glanced at Li in surprise: "Did mother really abandon her on purpose?!"

Mrs. Li didn't expect to let the cat out of the bag here, but now that she had a daughter who had embarrassed her so much, she simply didn't intend to hide it: "Your sister was indeed born with epilepsy, but epilepsy is not a bad thing. She was actually a fool who couldn't even suck milk..."

Song Ming happened to hear this when he came in.

He strode in quickly, staring intently at Li. "You... then why were you so vague in your last confession to Mother? Could it be that Chuchu's mental illness was truly cured by her mother at the cost of her life, as the nanny next to Song Wu said?"

Mrs. Li glanced at him in annoyance. "How would I know? I saw her come back so well that day, so I thought she was completely cured!"

Song Chusi felt even more upset.

He was too embarrassed to talk about what happened in the academy in front of his parents.

Ever since Huang Xin was beaten with a stick together with him before, he now wants to beat him up whenever he sees him.

And this time Song Chuchu's illness undoubtedly gave Huang Xin more confidence. He said that all the bloodlines in the Bo Mansion were rotten, and Song Wu was the real noble man. He completely forgot that he was beaten because of Song Wu!

He himself felt lost.

Before Chuchu came back, Song Wu's reputation as a talented woman gave him more face in the academy.

But now, I have a new sister. I thought things would get better and better, but I didn’t expect that all I got was ridicule!

Inexplicably, he actually missed the time when Song Wu was his sister...

But he quickly shook his head vigorously. No, no, no. Song Wu was cruel and vicious. After all, she was not of the Bo family's bloodline. He even had a grudge against her. How could she be a good person?

I must have been so angry that I lost my mind!

……

After lunch, Song Wu took Sang Luo with him alone, dressed in a low-key manner, and quietly went to Xuanyuan Temple.

After Jiang Xing learned about it, he quickly sent Xuan Ge to escort them.

The gatekeeper of Xuanyuan Temple was Xu Bai's young disciple. After Sang Luo reported his identity, the young disciple immediately led the three of them to a hall inside the temple.

This room is called Sanqing Hall. As Song Wu walked along, he became more and more confused.

Because this Sanqing Temple also has a sinister aura, but the strange thing is that this sinister aura is different from the ordinary ones. Not only did she not see any harmful black aura, but the sinister aura was also flashing with a strong golden light.

Although he was curious, there was still a lot of things to do in the palace, and Song Wu was not in the mood to care about the evil golden light at the moment.

Maybe it’s because of some strange secrets in the Taoist temple!

Song Wu arrived in the hall.

The place they were brought to was the rear hall of the Sanqing Temple, which was obviously used to receive distinguished guests and was decorated extremely luxuriously.

The disciples of Xuanyuan Temple brought the best Jin Junmei tea, which made Song Wu sneer repeatedly.

It had only been ten days, and the one who greeted him with such a humble look was not Song Chuchu, but her!

After a while, a slightly plump middle-aged man with short legs strode towards them with his head held high. "You distinguished guests have come from afar. I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person. I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person!"

Xu Bai smiled and saluted Song Wu.

Song Wu quickly stood up, his face showing just the right amount of sadness and anticipation: "Master Xu Bai! You're finally here!"

Song Wu wiped his eyes and said, "I came here today because I'm desperate. The prince's life is hanging by a thread, and there's no cure. Some say there might be something sinister going on in the palace! In the entire capital, the Taoist priest has the most profound magical powers, so I've come to bother you!"

Xu Bai's face remained calm, and he didn't forget to comfort her beforehand: "Don't worry, Princess! No matter what kind of evil object it is, in my hands, I can definitely destroy it! If it is truly an evil spirit, after I deal with it, the prince's serious illness will surely improve!"

"Okay, okay!" Song Wu's eyes welled up with tears of excitement. "Master, time waits for no one. Let's hurry down the mountain!"
