Canglang was very puzzled, "But Master Xie also..."

Although he hadn't seen Master Xie, he was certain he was on the boat next door. Now that they were returning to the capital, they had to go back together.

Gu Beichen lost his patience. "I said we'll set off immediately. If you still don't understand what I'm saying, I think you'd better not collect your salary this month."

His voice was icy cold, and Canglang couldn't help shivering. Everything else was easy to deal with, but he couldn't lose the double moon silver that he hadn't received yet. He quickly responded and turned around to arrange for the sailing.

Gu Beichen glanced again at the direction of the neighboring ship, and found that there was no one on the deck.

The light in his eyes dimmed completely, and the feeling of loneliness and helplessness in the dark night surged into his heart again.

There was a family on that boat, and he was the only outsider. He left there in a mess last night, and she didn't stop him. Why should he bother to beg for mercy?

It is true that she is a princess of noble status, but he is also the prince of Nanyao Kingdom. He has his own dignity and pride. Since the ending is doomed, why bother to add to her troubles?

Just let it go like this...

Not long after, the boat started and moved slowly on the water, gradually distancing itself from the boat next to it, moving farther and farther away, until they could no longer see each other.

"Have those men in black yesterday been interrogated?"

Except for Ji Wuchen and Xiao Zhu, all the men in black were captured by Canglang and others and locked up in the storage room under the cabin of their ship.

"My Lord, they are monks from the Jokhang Temple. However, our men found this on one of them."

Canglang handed over the thing in his hand. It was a jade pendant with the word "Yi" engraved on it.

Gu Beichen saw the words on the jade pendant clearly, and his pupils suddenly shrank. Something happened to Hua An!

Some time ago, Princess Pingyang and Princess Hua'an went to the Jokhang Temple to pray. The jade pendant that Hua'an carried with her fell into the hands of a thief, who happened to be a monk from the Jokhang Temple. Something must have happened to the mother and daughter!

"Pass the order down. Do not return to Shangjing City yet. Instead, take a detour to the Jokhang Temple!"

"Yes!"

……

After Shen Wanwan settled Pei Wanwan and Xie Moxuan, she quickly returned to her room, closed the door, and slipped into the space. The first thing she did was to look for the medical books and notes in the small box.

She remembered that the yellowed old medical book contained an introduction to the Ice Soul Ghost.

The Ice Soul Ghost is so special. The name sounds nice but it makes people inexplicably feel fearful. The description of the poison taking effect in the book is even more terrifying.

When she read medical books in the past, she found it difficult to understand why there were so many introductions to poisons with strange names at the back of medical books.

When she took Gu Beichen's pulse, she could clearly tell that he was poisoned by the Ice Soul Ghost, simply because the description of the symptoms of the poison in the book was too detailed and left a deep impression on her.

But after looking through it for a long time, she only saw the introduction about the Ice Soul Ghost and did not find the method of making the antidote.

No, it shouldn't be like this.

When she was reading medical books in the past, she clearly remembered seeing the method of making the antidote. Why can't she find it now?

Shen Wanwan searched through the pages again and finally found some rice-sized scraps of paper left in the gap after the paper was torn. Because they were so small, it was difficult to notice that a page was missing without a close look.

Her eyes darkened. This medical book had been tampered with!

Who tore off that page of paper?

Could it be Gu Beichen?
