Tang Yixien instinctively looked at Sheng Qingye with gratitude.

The two looked at each other, and suddenly, Sheng Qingye seemed to wink at him with his right eye, with a hint of playfulness.

Tang Yixien avoided looking away.

Sheng Qingye is really crazy sometimes.

The chains protecting him in front of him were shining brightly.

This is Sheng Qingye.

Protecting his own people is a habit he developed on the battlefield when he was killing demons.

Tang Yixian pursed his lips and said slowly,

"I prepared the herbs for the calming incense for my father and asked Yao Lao to refine it. I was also the one who sent it to the study."

Yao Lao stepped forward and saluted the Lord, then walked to the table, picked up the box of spices, and pulled out one of them.

I saw a white light flash from Yao Lao's two fingers, and spiritual power poured into the incense from his fingertips.

Under the sudden blessing of spiritual power, the incense turned into powder and drifted away.

A gleam of light flashed in Yao Lao's seemingly confused eyes. He picked up another incense stick and continued the same action as before. The incense stick still shattered.

Then he walked to Tang Yuncang's seat and bowed respectfully,

"Replying to the Lord, I can confirm that this incense was not made by me. Someone replaced it with this calming incense later."

"Oh? Are you so sure? Yao Lao, I advise you to think it over carefully before you speak." Tang Tianao said in a low and stern voice.

"The tranquilizing incense I refined carries the mark of spiritual power. Those who can't withstand my spiritual power are naturally not."

"Are you sure?"

"I guarantee with my life that the alchemy room still has calming incense, all of which are marked. The incense in this box now is not the calming incense I refined."

Tang Ziyu watched from the side, secretly shocked by his own negligence.

Forget about Yao Lao.

It was also unexpected that Yao Lao would come to help Tang Yixin. After all, Yao Lao was famous for his stubborn temper.

Never meddle in other people's business.

"Hmph, does the calming incense also need to be marked with spiritual power imprint?" Tang Tianao asked in a questioning tone.

Yao Lao stroked his beard and said firmly,

"Master Tang said that this is incense for the Lord, and it cannot be sloppy. He specifically ordered this."

To be on the safe side, Tang Yixien asked Yao Lao to mark the incense.

Uncle Tang Ziyu chimed in,

"Could it be possible that Yixian was momentarily upset and stole the tranquilizing incense given by Yao Lao?"

Tang Yixian sneered with a faint smile on his face.

"How desperate must I be then? Let Yao Lao mark the incense, and then I replace the marked incense?"

Tang Ziyu was speechless for a moment, his face turned pale with anger, and he said,

"This is just Yao Lao's one-sided statement. Since there are objections to this matter, why not lock Yi Xian up for a while and investigate him thoroughly to clear his name."

Tang Yixien snorted in his heart.

This uncle will never stop until he kills him.

Tang Yixian said calmly,

"Uncle, wasn't the disciple who discovered the poisonous incense also speaking one-sidedly?"

Tang Ziyu's face turned grim.

Things suddenly came to a standstill.

At this moment, several deep coughs were heard in the hall. It was Ye Tianlan, the elder of the Tang family.

Ye Tianlan is the elder of the Tang family. He has been there almost since the founding of the sect. Although he is usually taciturn, his words carry great weight in the Tang family.

The surroundings immediately became quiet.

"I believe what Yao Lao said. Since the incense has been replaced, the purpose is naturally to frame the eldest young master."

He turned to look at Tang Tianao beside him, his eyes full of inquiry and depth.

The only one who could stay out of this matter and say something was Elder Ye Tianlan.

In an instant, the situation changed dramatically.

Tang Tianao no longer had the arrogance he had just now. He could not continue talking. If he continued, he would be suspected of framing someone.

He also didn't want to give Elder Ye a bad impression, so he rubbed his fingers angrily in his sleeves.

Tang Yuncang naturally understood the strangeness at this time, and his eyes softened when he looked at Tang Yixin.

Sheng Qingye stepped forward at this moment, deliberately saluted Tang Yuncang, raised his eyes and smiled,

"It seems that someone wants to frame my master. Please be careful."

Tang Yuncang regained his composure and nodded slightly with a dignified demeanor.

Elder Ye said in a calm and old voice,

"As long as we investigate this period of time, we will know who has been entering and leaving the study."

There is a forbidden barrier in Tang Yuncang's study.

Tang Yixien didn't say much. He was the person involved, and if he said too much, it would make people think he was guilty.

He had to say it through someone else's mouth.

Elder Ye’s words were very authoritative, so the others didn’t say anything else.

Tang Yuncang handed the matter over to Elder Ye for investigation.

Tang Yixien naturally knew that Tang Tianao had deliberately framed him.

But there is no conclusive evidence.

Most likely, Tang Tianao will find someone to take the blame. This is what Tang Tianao is best at.

No clue was found and the case was eventually dropped.

Sure enough, early the next morning.

The body of the emaciated disciple who first discovered that the incense was poisonous was found hanging from a big tree. It was suicide. His letter of repentance was left on the ground next to the body.

He said that he did everything and wanted to murder the master and put the blame on the eldest son.

This way there will be no evidence.

Tang Tianao looked at the emaciated disciple's body and just sneered.

It seems that he underestimated the enemy. This brother seems to be a little smarter.

That day, Tang Yixin asked Xuan Yuran to catch a few high-quality roosters and send them to Yao Lao.

Thank you for your timely help.

The two talked about this while eating roast chicken.

Yao Lao was afraid. What would have happened if he hadn’t marked it at that time?

"That calming incense doesn't smell like roasted chicken, so it definitely didn't come from our alchemy room."

Tang Yixien said it jokingly.

Yao Lao looked at Tang Yixien who was smiling so freely and dashingly in front of him, and his small eyes couldn't help but smile into slits.

That night.

In the disciples' courtyard, as night fell, Sheng Qingye sat on a stone bench in the courtyard with a small pot of wine.

Without using a wine glass, he just raised his head and poured a little bit of wine into his mouth.

"Master finds out you're drinking, be careful if your credits are deducted."

Jin Xiaoxiao came out of the house and walked to Sheng Qingye and said.

"That's funny. Would I be afraid of him deducting credits?"

Sheng Qingye raised his head and drank the rest of the wine, then put the jug aside.

......

Sheng Qingye likes to drink, but he has just become a disciple, and the Tang family usually prohibits alcohol.

"You are in the hall today...Aren't you afraid that Uncle Sheng will be angry?"

Jin Xiaoxiao guessed why Sheng Qingye drank.

What happened today will definitely reach Sheng Qingye’s father’s ears.

This clearly favors Tang Yixin.

The Sheng family has always been neutral and is only loyal to Lord Tang Yuncang.

"Is it because of the advancement of your cultivation?" Jin Xiaoxiao asked.

Thanks to his master's ancient books and mental methods, Sheng Qingye has broken through the bottleneck and advanced to the late stage of Jindan.

Sheng Qingye lowered his eyes, smiled, and shook his head slightly.

"People are free, aren't they? Is it wrong for me to help my master?"
