Rebirth of Ghost Eye Shou Ye

Ji Xiamo raised her head and smiled, "Chu Lingyou and Fang Linjun are not as good as you in martial arts, let alone Qin Yan, and they are impatient and don't know how to adapt. You can only do this matter."

Jin Wuji squatted beside Ji Xiamo with hot tea, holding Ji Xiamo's hand as if hesitating.Ji Xiamo patted the back of Jin Wuji's hand to reassure him, "I'll just stay in the courtyard and not go anywhere, just come back as soon as you find it."

"Okay." Not wanting to disappoint Ji Xiamo, Jin Wuji could only agree even if he didn't want to.

Waiting for the last light to disappear, Jin Wuji changed into night travel costume and quietly left the courtyard. His extreme lightness kung fu was like a phantom ghost, and even the inner guards guarding the courtyard didn't notice it.

Ji Xiamo leaned on the soft bed, flipped through the books by candlelight, quietly counting the time.The key to solving the case was the rag. Although it was only speculation, Ji Xiamo still wanted Jin Wuji to investigate.

The handwriting of the book was a little blurred under the candlelight. Ji Xiamo rubbed his sore eyes and sighed secretly for the weakness of this body.

There were footsteps on the steps of the courtyard, and then someone knocked on the door to announce, "Master Ji, the emperor wants you to go to the imperial study to discuss."

Ji Xiamo frowned slightly, it was already night, what important business did the emperor have, and he insisted on seeing him now.

Ji Xiamo put down her books, got up, straightened her robes, went to the door and opened it.Dan Gonggong stood in the courtyard and waited, followed by four eunuchs holding lamps.

"The emperor said something about it." Ji Xiamo asked.

"It should be to ask about the progress of the case of the female corpse in the lotus pond in the Royal Garden of the Annual Banquet." Pu Gonggong said respectfully.

Ji Xiamo frowned and felt wrong. Qin Yan had just been called to the imperial study, and the emperor sent someone to announce him. Could it be that Qin Yan accidentally mentioned the suspect in the case and angered the emperor?

Ji Xiamo suppressed the emotions in his eyes, nodded gently and said, "Wait for me to prepare."

Ji Xiamo went back to the house and put on a cloak. He hesitated for a moment when he saw the swinging candles, then turned around and walked out of the house to the courtyard, "Please dandelion to lead the way."

"Master Ji, please." Pu Gonggong motioned sideways.

Ji Xiamo followed Pu Gonggong out of the courtyard. The inner guards guarding the courtyard wanted to follow, but Ji Xiamo saw that Pu Gonggong's brows were frowning, so he refused the protection of the inner guards and took only two people with him.

Next to Ji Xiamo was the Dandelion leading the way, followed by two inner guards, and behind him were eunuchs holding lamps.

Following Dandelion on the secluded road, Ji Xiamo looked at the quiet surroundings and felt more and more strange.Ji Xiamo slowed down his pace, glanced at Dandelion's feet from the corner of the eye, his slow and steady footsteps made Ji Xiamo frown.

The corner of Ji Xiamo's eyes glanced at the front and back eunuchs holding lamps, and intentionally or unintentionally approached the inner guard behind him. "Pang Gonggong, what did Commander Qin say when he met Sheng Sheng?"

"Master Ji, don't worry. Your Majesty just asked Commander Qin about the case, and Commander Qin didn't mention anything else."

Ji Xiamo caressed his chest in a relaxed manner, and then said worriedly, "General Qin seems to have relapsed from an old illness recently. Commander Qin just told me that he would ask the emperor for leave. Will the emperor agree?"

Ji Xiamo's worried expression did not seem to be fake. Pu Gonggong glanced at Ji Xiamo, and smiled comfortingly, "General Qin has worked hard for me on the battlefield. Now that the old illness has developed, Commander Qin should visit him to show his filial piety. Your Majesty values ​​filial piety." I will definitely agree, Young Master Ji is relieved."

Ji Xiamo's eyes darkened instantly, cursing inwardly that she had been tricked.Qin Zhaoqin is in excellent health, and can eat half a catty of rice every meal, so it's not bad luck or old disease.

The expressions of the inner guards following behind gradually became dignified. Since Qin Yan was banned, they have been with Qin Yan. They have been promoted by Qin Yan for several years. Although they seem to be subordinates, they are actually like brothers.Qin Yan was straight-tempered again, and told them if something happened, they knew something about Qin Yan's family affairs.

As the dandelion wanted to move forward, it became more and more silent, the surroundings were dark and deserted, and the air seemed to be filled with a dangerous atmosphere.

Pu Gonggong glanced at Ji Xiamo from the corner of his eye, and the eunuchs holding lamps in front and behind also stepped lightly. Ji Xiamo clenched the short blade of the bodyguard tightly in his sleeve, "Pandong Gong, is this the way to the imperial study?"

"Young Master Ji, sometimes you know too much, and there are always some things you can't know." You Sen's voice sounded like a deadly ghost in the darkness, and the eunuchs with lamps at the front and rear suddenly turned around, drew out their privately hidden sharp blades and stabbed inside guard.

Although the inner guard following behind Ji Xiamo had been alert for a long time, there were still bloodstains on his body.Dandelion drew out his dagger and stabbed Ji Xiamo's heart. Ji Xiamo waved his sleeves and retreated to dodge. The dagger blocked Dandelion's dagger, dodging the deadly attack.

These assassins were highly skilled in martial arts, and they were obviously not ordinary assassins. The inner guards were besieged by the four lamp-carrying eunuchs, and they couldn't get close to Ji Xiamo at all.

Dandelion's dagger was fierce and fierce, and it was aimed at Ji Xiamo's deadly point.Ji Xiamo struggled to resist Pu Gonggong's ultimate move, his arm was paralyzed by the internal force brought by the dagger.

The cloak left many sword marks, Ji Xiamo's dagger fell to the ground, and his body staggered to the ground.Dandelion's face was twisted ferociously, and he raised his dagger and stabbed fiercely at Ji Xiamo's throat.

Seeing that the short sword was about to be seen, Ji Xiamo was protected by a few sword qi out of nowhere in the dark night, blocking Pu Gonggong's ultimate move.

Fang Linjun and Chu Lingyou rushed over at a critical moment, Chu Lingyou stared at Pu Gonggong fiercely and said coldly, "My brother, you dare to move, you are a life-or-death eunuch."

Chu Lingyou and Pu Gonggong fought together, Chu Lingyou's moves were fierce and vicious, and Pu Gonggong was forced to panic.

Fang Linjun went to Ji Xiamo's side and helped him up, nervously checking Ji Xiamo's body, "Is there any injury?"

Ji Xiamo endured the pain and shook his head, looking at the inner guard who was fighting with the eunuch holding the lamp, Ji Xiamo said in a deep voice, "Go and help them."

"Then what do you do?" Fang Linjun was annoyed. "You are so weak now that ordinary strong men can knock you down."

"Although my martial arts are weak, I still have ways to protect myself. They are going to die." Ji Xiamo scolded.

Seeing that Ji Xiamo was really angry, Fang Linjun gritted his teeth and could only go up to help with his sword. Ji Xiamo stepped back and leaned against the rockery to cover his lips and cough, and the silk was stained with dazzling scarlet.

The surrounding pavilions and flowers were blown down by Chu Lingyou's unscrupulous attack, and Pu Gonggong struggled to support himself.The battle here alarmed the palace guards, who came to help one after another.

With the help of the inner guards, the eunuch who held the lamp was quickly subdued, and Pu Gonggong was also picked up by Chu Lingyou and stepped on the soles of his feet. Qin Yan hurried over and supported Ji Xiamo in a panic, "Xia Mo, how do you feel? "

Ji Xiamo hid the blood-stained silk in her sleeve, shook her head with strength, walked up to the captured assassin and asked coldly, "Who sent you here?"

The assassin looked at Ji Xiamo and sneered, Qin Yan yelled with a dark face, "Take these assassins to trial, and pry their mouths open for me!"

The inner guard was about to take the assassins away, when suddenly those assassins widened their eyes, twitched all over their bodies, spit out blood, and stopped breathing.

"Commander Qin, they committed suicide by taking poison." The inner guard reported.

Fang Linjun walked up to the corpses of those assassins, bent down and took off the fake face, revealing a strange appearance. "These should be trained dead soldiers."

A dead man appeared in the palace?The faces of the inner guards at the scene changed drastically, and they couldn't help but feel a gloomy chill on their backs.

Ji Xiamo looked away from the corpse. These assassins came with the determination to die, and they would never carry anything related to their identity.

"Follow my injured inner guards." Ji Xiamo asked Qin Yan, these assassins were highly skilled in martial arts, and the two inner guards seemed to be seriously injured.

"It has been taken down for treatment." Qin Yan's face was gloomy and livid.

"Let's go." Ji Xiamo shook his head helplessly and sighed. After this incident, the palace might not be able to sleep tonight.

Qin Yan hurriedly supported Ji Xiamo, and at the same time roared with a dark face, "What are you doing in a daze, go and bring the imperial doctor!"

Ji Xiamo saw the collapsed pavilions and withered flowers and plants around him, and moved his eyes to Chu Lingyou.Chu Lingyou spread her hands innocently, "I can't control it well."

Never forced to admit that he did it on purpose, demolishing the emperor's house is really cool~~

Ji Xiamo sneered, "You should be glad that this assassin didn't show up at my house." If you dare to make my house like this, I will let Brother Jin kill you.

"..." Chu Lingyou.

[Main text Episode 159 Chu Lingyou's gamble]

The emperor was furious when Ji Xiamo was assassinated, and sealed off the palace for a search to catch any fish that slipped through the net.Ji Xiamo was escorted back to the hospital by Qin Yan, seeing Jin Wuji's piercing cold eyes, Ji Xiamo sighed secretly.

After Qin Yan sent Ji Xiamo back, he could rush to the imperial study room. Ji Xiamo retreated around the screen, and before he could turn around, Jin Wuji pressed him onto the table.

His back hurt from being hit by the edge of the table, Ji Xiamo knew that being assassinated tonight would scare Jin Wuji, so he endured the discomfort and hugged Jin Wuji back. "I am okay."

"I shouldn't have left!" Jin Wuji suppressed his anger in a deep voice, breaking the corners of the table with his veiny palm.

Jin Wuji touched Ji Xiamo's neck with his cold fingers, and a terrifying storm was brewing in his dark pupils. "I should lock you up so you can't go anywhere."

Ji Xiamo shuddered coldly, and the madness in Jin Wuji's eyes made Ji Xiamo understand that Jin Wuji was not joking with him. Is this the rhythm of blackening?

With the cold table on the back and the oppression from Jin Wuji in front of him, Ji Xiamo wisely did not dare to provoke Jin Wuji willfully.

Ji Xiamo deliberately softened her voice, and looked at Jin Wuji's coquettish softness with aggrieved eyes, "Brother Jin, I feel pain."

Jin Wuji's expression froze for a moment, and Ji Xiamo hugged Jin Wuji's neck persistently, his eyes overflowing with moisture. "Brother Jin, I'm afraid of you like this."

Ji Xiamo's appearance of about to cry frightened Jin Wuji, Jin Wuji quickly hugged Ji Xiamo's waist and left the table, and gently put him on the chair. "I didn't mean to kill you."

The fleeting helplessness in Jin Wuji's eyes made Ji Xiamo feel distressed. Ji Xiamo held Jin Wuji's hand and apologized guiltily, "I'm sorry."

Jin Wuji stared at Ji Xiamo for a moment, the scarlet color in his eyes gradually faded, he sighed and took him into his arms. "Knowing about your assassination, I'm going crazy."

"Lingyou and Xiao Lin follow me, they can protect me." Ji Xiamo didn't dare to tell Jin Wuji clearly that Chu Lingyou and Fang Linjun arrived at a critical moment.

After appeasing Jin Wuji's rage, Ji Xiamo thought of the task he had given to Jin Wuji, "Have you found anything?"

Jin Wuji looked at Ji Xiamo gloomyly. Ji Xiamo tugged at Jin Wuji's sleeve to please him. With a cold face, Jin Wuji turned around and picked up the bag and handed it to Ji Xiamo.

Ji Xiamo opened the bag and saw the clothes made of coral and emerald green leaves. Ji Xiamo found the cuffs and looked through them. Although the clothes were washed clean, the cuffs where the cuffs were ripped hadn't been sewn.

Ji Xiamo looked at the clothes in thought for a while, his expression changing unpredictablely, "In this way, everything can be matched."

Ji Xiamo put away his clothes and handed them to Jin Wuji, got up and went to the door and opened it. In the courtyard, Chu Lingyou and Fang Linjun were blocking the eunuch who wanted to come in, apparently to buy time for Ji Xiamo and Jin Wuji to be alone.

Seeing Ji Xiamo come out, Fang Linjun and Chu Lingyou withdrew. Ji Xiamo recognized the eunuch outside the courtyard as the servant of the emperor's study.

"The assassin was Yi Rongcheng Dandelion who assassinated me. They were still in shock and hope you don't blame me." Ji Xiamo explained.

"Master Ji is shocked." The eunuch waited in the imperial study, and naturally knew how much the emperor valued Ji Xiamo, so his attitude was very respectful.

The eunuch took out the emperor's token to prove his identity, "The emperor ordered you to summon the young master to the imperial study."

The emperor's call was expected, and Ji Xiamo nodded slightly without any objection, "After I change my clothes, I will go with my father-in-law."

Ji Xiamo changed out of the blood-stained clothes, and then left with the eunuch who announced the decree.After all, Chu Lingyou and Fang Linjun came from Jianghu, and worried that they would be angered by the emperor if they offended, Ji Xiamo asked them to stay in the courtyard and wait for news.

On the way to the imperial study room, there are patrolling inner guards everywhere, which shows that the emperor is determined to investigate this matter thoroughly, and the palace is afraid that new grievances will be added.

Following the eunuch who led the way to the imperial study room, the atmosphere in the dead silent imperial study room was tense and oppressive. Qin Yan stood beside him with a heavy expression, and when he saw Ji Xiamo coming in, he shook his head secretly, signaling Ji Xiamo to pay attention to his words and not to offend the furious man at this moment. emperor.

"Caomin Ji Xiamo kowtowed to the emperor." Ji Xiamo bowed his knees.

The emperor's eyes lingered on Jin Wuji for a moment, and then turned to Ji Xiamo, "Ji Xiamo, what is the result of the investigation of the case of the female corpse in the lotus pond in the imperial garden?"

"Xia Mo has lived up to the emperor's orders and has investigated the case clearly." Ji Xiamo's tone paused for a moment, his expression seemed to be hesitant. "But this case involves the queen, Xia Mo asks the emperor to decide it himself."

Hearing what Ji Xiamo said, the emperor's expression darkened immediately, "Tell me the whole story in detail."

"Yes!" Ji Xiamo obeyed, with a serious and straightforward expression. "The deceased in the Hechi female corpse case in the Imperial Garden, Ruyue, was not an ordinary vendetta, but was silenced. This starts with Concubine Mei's miscarriage."

Ji Xiamo told the emperor about the investigation and reasoning analysis of these days, the emperor's face was dark, and the eunuchs serving in the imperial study hunched their shoulders and buried their heads, wishing they were deaf-mute.

After listening to Ji Xiamo's statement of the case, the emperor threw the teacup on the ground angrily and overturned the memorial on the table. "Bastard, bastard!!"

The emperor trembled with anger, fell down on the dragon chair and coughed while clutching his chest.Pushing away the herbal tea delivered by Pu Gonggong, the emperor's eyes were bloodshot, "Qin Yan, go to the Queen's bedroom immediately and capture the evil slave Gao Yu!"

"Yes!" Qin Yan accepted the order in a solemn voice, turned around and left the imperial study room quickly.

Qin Yan brought Gao Yu in a moment, and Ji Xiamo also brought the evidence of the case. Gao Yu seemed to have known the day before, but he didn't seem to struggle or fear at all.

The cat in the cage, Ruyu kneeling, and the murder weapon and rags in the tray.When Gao Yu's eyes fell on the murder weapon, his pupils shrank obviously, and he glared fiercely at Ji Xiamo again in an instant.

Gao Yu was kicked by Qin Yan and knelt on the ground. Ji Xiamo stepped forward and said, "Raise a cat to scare Concubine Mei into having a miscarriage, kill Ruyue to silence her, and then want to poison Ruyu and interfere with my investigation of the case. Gao Yu, you can plead guilty."

Gao Yu struggled to move, but was slashed on the back by Qin Yan's sword hilt. He curled up in pain and moaned, his face turned pale and he shut his mouth.

Ji Xiamo signaled Jin Wuji to take out the clothes, "This coral green leaf dress is yours, right?"

"You followed Ruyue to the Imperial Garden on the night of the New Year's Eve, cut her throat with a dagger, and when Ruyue struggled, you tore off your cufflinks. When Ruyue died, you buried her in the lotus pond."

Ji Xiamo's eyes fell on Gao Yu's cufflinks, "When I asked about the case some time ago, you said that the cufflinks were given by the empress, so you will never lose them if you wear them every day."

"When Kisaragi was killed, she tore it off. When you pulled her hand back to retract the cuff, you scratched her palm and left pieces of her clothes."

Ji Xiamo lifted the clothes, revealing the torn cuffs. "The blood turns black after it dries up. You seem to wash it clean, but there are still traces. Although it has been fused with the fabric, if you are familiar with the cut of the fabric, you can still tell the difference."

"Gao Yu, recruit the mastermind behind you, and make atonement as much as possible."

Gao Yu stared at Ji Xiamo with bloodshot eyes, and with a sudden scream in his throat, he pushed Qin Yan away with all his strength, and rushed towards Ji Xiamo madly.

Jin Wuji's eyes flashed violently, he hugged Ji Xiamo's shoulders to protect him behind him, kicked Gao Yu away, fell to the red pillar and rolled down, immediately vomited blood and couldn't move anymore.

Jin Wuji made six points, and Gao Yu went directly to Half Life. If it wasn't for Ji Xiamo's important suspect who wanted to close the case, Jin Wuji would definitely have killed him just because he dared to attack Ji Xiamo.

"Gao Yu, how dare you commit murder in the imperial study!" Pu Gonggong shouted angrily.

Qin Yan stepped on Gao Yu's chest, and the sword in his hand was pressed against Gao Yu's throat, wanting to cut off his head directly.The inner guards ran into the imperial study room and surrounded Gao Yu to protect the frightened emperor.

"I did it, it's all me!" Gao Yu laughed crazily with blood on his face.

"Immediately take Gao Yu to the prison and hand it over to the Ministry of Punishment for severe punishment!" The emperor's face was livid.

Gao Yu was dragged out of the imperial study room by the inner guards. When he passed by Ji Xiamo, Gao Yu smiled strangely, "You lost, you lost..."

Looking at Gao Yu's back, Ji Xiamo stared blankly at Gao Yu's complacent eyes, feeling inexplicably gloomy in his heart.

"Your Majesty!" Pu Gonggong's exclamation brought Ji Xiamo back to his senses, and he saw the emperor lying on the dragon chair, his face was blue and his eyes were lifeless, as if half of his life had been hooked by Yama.

"Go and call the imperial doctor!"

The case of the female corpse in the lotus pond in the imperial garden was closed, and Gao Yu was sure to die when he was arrested. The emperor fell ill and fell into a coma, and the palace was in chaos.

Ji Xiamo's body was also weak, and it was not until dawn near dawn that he was sure that the emperor was out of danger, so Ji Xiamo took Jin Wuji back to the courtyard where he lived.

Jin Wuji made a decoction for Ji Xiamo, and after taking the medicine, Ji Xiamo fell into a drowsy sleep.Jin Wuji looked at Ji Xiamo's pale face and felt sorry for Ji Xiamo's weakness.

"Lie down and have a rest too, don't let Xiaomo worry about you anymore." Fang Linjun ordered in a low voice, then quietly closed the door and left.

Jin Wuji was silent for a while, took off his robe and lifted the quilt, and lay down next to Ji Xiamo.Holding Ji Xiamo's hand and hugging him in his arms, Jin Wuji gently kissed the corner of Ji Xiamo's mouth, "You are too tired, it's time to rest."

Fang Linjun walked into the courtyard, looked at the palace in the distance, and suddenly felt a little emotional.Some people want to come in, but some people want to go out. How many sad elegy songs are buried in this magnificent golden palace.

Chu Lingyou hugged Fang Linjun from behind, Fang Linjun's imperceptible moment of stiffness did not push Chu Lingyou away.

Chu Lingyou sniffed the scent of spices on Fang Linjun's collar, and smiled contentedly at the corner of his mouth, "When we go back to the villa, I will build it for you according to the palace here."

Knowing that Chu Lingyou might have misunderstood, Fang Linjun vetoed coldly, "I don't like this place."

"But I think it's good." Chu Lingyou's pupils were dark and charming. "The golden palace, the beautiful canary, I'm a little excited just thinking about it."

Fang Linjun's eyes darkened, and his clenched fists suppressed the trembling.Chu Lingyou reached into Fang Linjun's clothes, and groped to his chest, "Does it mean that you are willing to love me if you are willing to hide it?"

The violated Fang Linjun bit his lip, restraining the urge to push Chu Lingyou away.Chu Lingyou let out a deep laugh, "I really love your pride that you don't want to bow your head."

"Actually, as long as you ask Ji Xiamo for help, he can help you leave, or even kill me." Chu Lingyou made a shallow imprint on Fang Linjun's neck. "But you didn't. Did you not want me to die? Or didn't you want Ji Xiamo to see your pitiful appearance."

Sensing Chu Lingyou's downward movement, Fang Linjun held Chu Lingyou's invading hand, his voice trembling slightly, "Don't be here."

Chu Lingyou squinted at the pleading in Fang Linjun's eyes, and smiled indifferently with a touch of tenderness, "I said, as long as you ask me, I will be happy to spoil you."

Fang Linjun's eyes hadn't shown emotion for a long time, like a doll whose soul was taken away.Visiting Ji Xiamo in the imperial city this time is a gamble, if you lose, you will never recover, but if you win...

Now it seems that he may have made the right bet.

[Text Episode 160 The Mysterious Brocade Box]

Ji Xiamo's current body is like a fragile sculpture, unable to withstand bumps.During this period of time, because of the case investigation, Ji Xiamo was holding on and persevering. After the case was over, his nerves were relaxed, and Ji Xiamo fell ill.

After sleeping for two full days, when Ji Xiamo woke up, he smelled the fragrance of medicine all over the room. Jin Wuji stood beside him silently. Seeing Ji Xiamo wake up, the haze in his eyes finally dissipated.

Ji Xiamo leaned on the soft pillow and finished drinking the medicine. Jin Wuji quickly handed over the candied dates. Ji Xiamo frowned and bit a bit, reluctantly not vomiting.

Jin Wuji came to warm tea and feed it to Ji Xiamo, and comforted Ji Xiamo along his back, "Qin Yan sent some lotus seed cakes, I'll bring them to you."

"I don't have an appetite for the time being." Ji Xiamo leaned on the soft pillow and closed her eyes, her weak appearance seemed to dissipate with the wind at any time. "The case of the female corpse in the lotus pond in the imperial garden was closed. How did the emperor judge and deal with it?"

"Gao Yu was sentenced to Ling Chi, the queen was imprisoned, her bedroom was banned, and Feng Yin handed over to Concubine Shu to act as queen." Fang Linjun told Ji Xiamo the news he had received recently. "All the servants in the queen's bedroom were executed. The crown prince, Feng Lingchen, pleaded for his mother and is still kneeling outside the emperor's palace."

Hearing Feng Lingchen's news, Ji Xiamo paused.If Feng Lingchen is wiser, it is best to protect himself at this time, otherwise the emperor will inevitably anger him when he is angry.But Feng Lingchen is filial and affectionate, how could he abandon his biological mother.

Recalling the first time I met in the palace when I was young, the modest gentleman was as gentle as jade.Under the peach blossom tree by the Jingyue Lake in the south of the city, they talked freely about poetry and songs, as if they were in a trance like a dream in a previous life.

After this incident, the relationship between him and Feng Lingchen was severed.Ji Xiamo sighed softly.

"Feng Lingchen must be implicated in the case of the female corpse in the lotus pond in the imperial garden, and the emperor's condition has worsened. There will be another bloody storm in the court."

"Since the case has been solved, we should leave and return home as soon as possible." Jin Wuji abruptly changed the subject.

Ji Xiamo frowned and rubbed her forehead to relieve the pain in her head. "I will ask for an order later."

Ji Xiamo asked for an order to leave the palace, and the emperor withdrew the servants in the palace, and chatted with Ji Xiamo in private despite his illness.Looking at the tired emperor, Ji Xiamo felt a little pity for him.

The emperor covered his mouth and coughed violently, a pale scarlet color overflowed from the corner of his mouth.Ji Xiamo approached and helped the emperor up, "Your Majesty, rest."

"I know that time is short, so don't lie to me like them." The emperor drank his saliva to dissipate the bloody smell in his mouth, and said to Ji Xiamo with dim eyes. "Yude told me about Chenzhou, and I know that you practice the strange art of Qimen Dunjia."

Ji Xiamo's expression froze, and the emperor held Ji Xiamo's hand like a kind father, "My life is dying, and the court is chaotic and the kings are fighting secretly. What do Xia Mo think of my sons?"

Ji Xiamo wanted to get up, but the emperor motioned him to sit down, "Just tell me, I forgive you for your innocence."

Ji Xiamo hesitated for a moment, relaxed the guard in his eyes a little, and tried his best to organize his words. "The crown prince has both ability and integrity, loyalty and filial piety, the three kings are calm, wise, and decisive in killing, the five kings are full of talent and love, and the six kings dare to speak and do justice."

Ji Xiamo's words were nice, but he also secretly expressed that Feng Lingchen didn't like power and feared that it would be difficult to secure the throne.Feng Yelan is ambitious and indifferent, the six kings are like children without calculations, the five kings don't want to be restrained, and prefer the unrestrained world.

Ji Xiamo originally wanted to mention the fourth king, Feng Yishuang, but thinking of Feng Yishuang's legs being crippled, few people in the court knew about him, and the emperor might not have any impression of him at all.

The emperor pondered Ji Xiamo's words, stared at Ji Xiamo in silence for a while, and said in a hoarse voice, "Xia Mo thinks which of my sons will be able to take on the big responsibility in the end."

Ji Xiamo felt chills in his heart, and got up and knelt down pretending to be panicked, "Xia Mo talked about the kings indiscriminately, and I hope the emperor will forgive me."

"I promise to forgive you for your innocence." The emperor wanted Ji Xiamo to answer the question, but Ji Xiamo knelt down and remained silent. The emperor looked back and sighed helplessly.

The emperor stared at the gauze tent in a daze for a long time, then took out the brocade box under the pillow and handed it to Ji Xiamo.Ji Xiamo was stunned for a moment, and took the brocade box respectfully.

Seeing that the emperor did not speak, Ji Xiamo tentatively opened the brocade box. When he saw the contents in the box, his pupils tightened instantly, and he quickly closed the brocade box again. "emperor……"

"I know that you have great military strategy and clever calculations, if I can use you as a counselor..."

"Xia Mo swears by the ancestral spirit of the Ji family that he will never get involved in the court faction. The Ji family is only loyal to the emperor." Ji Xiamo was terrified by the emperor's words, and interrupted the emperor regardless of his dignity.

"That's the best." The emperor's eyes fell on the brocade box in Ji Xiamo's hand. "You keep this brocade box in secret. It's not an order but a request. From now on, no matter who wins or loses, he will be my son. Save it if you can."

Ji Xiamo held the brocade box like a hot potato, but he couldn't disobey the emperor's order, so he could only thank him for accepting the order. "yes."

Ji Xiamo left the emperor's bedroom with a heavy expression, and the kings kneeling outside the palace looked at Ji Xiamo, their eyes fell on the brocade box in Ji Xiamo's hand, and a dark light of unknown meaning flashed in their eyes.

Ji Xiamo staggered away from the kings in front of the palace and followed Jin Wuji to leave.After finding Qin Yan, he took Chu Lingyou and Fang Linjun into the carriage leaving the palace.

Looking at the palace outside the car curtain, the melancholy on Ji Xiamo's brows persisted. Fang Linjun saw that Ji Xiamo had something on his mind, so he asked aloud, "What did the emperor tell you in the bedroom just now?"

"It's okay." Ji Xiamo smiled wryly. "Just ask me who is suitable to be emperor."

Chu Lingyou and Fang Linjun looked at each other, Jin Wuji frowned and held Ji Xiamo's hand.Ji Xiamo leaned on Jin Wuji and said, "Don't worry, I'm thinking about other things."

"Although the case of the female corpse in the Lotus Pond in the Royal Garden is closed, there are still doubts that have not been clarified." Ji Xiamo said. "Gao Yu has served the queen for many years. He is insidious and cunning. He actually used the dagger bestowed by the emperor to kill Ruyue. This is too careless."

"And those cats, so shocked that Concubine Mei should have been killed immediately after giving birth, how they were taken away from the queen's bedroom by Ruyue, and they were not found."

"I always feel that things are far less simple than we thought." Ji Xiamo couldn't think of a reason, and his head was painfully painful. "The case is going so smoothly, it seems that someone is behind the scenes."

"Don't think too much." Chu Lingyou said with a smile. "Gao Yu has confessed to the crime, what you need to do now is to take good care of your illness."

Jin Wuji gently massaged Ji Xiamo's forehead, and Ji Xiamo fell asleep leaning against Jin Wuji.Intuition told Ji Xiamo that there must be a bigger conspiracy hidden behind the case of the female corpse in the lotus pond in the imperial garden.

In the desolate and desolate Queen's bedroom, the former wealth and luxury are now only desolate.The servants in the bedroom were all killed by the emperor, looking at the huge palace, it was even more miserable than the cold palace.

The queen sat in the cold bedroom in plain clothes, her face was pale but her arrogance was still there.She was ruthless and merciless, and she sat in her current position. Although she was imprisoned by the emperor, as long as she is still the queen and Feng Lingchen is still the prince, she has not lost yet.

The door of the dormitory was pushed open, and the eunuch who delivered the food came in, arranged the thick rice with muddy mash, and invited the queen to eat.

The queen looked out of the bedroom, her expression indifferent, as if she didn't hear it.The eunuch glanced outside the corner of his eyes to make sure there were no guards listening, so he approached the queen and said in a low voice, "The Lord Protector ordered the servant to tell the empress that he will assist His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

The queen's eyes flashed brightly, and she looked at the eunuch with an unpredictable expression. "Tell Gongsun Rui that everything has nothing to do with him, and I will take care of everything."

"Your Majesty is smart." The eunuch smiled and bowed to retreat from the bedroom.

Seeing that the bedroom was closed again, the queen clenched her fists tightly, and the sharp nails pinched out bloody marks on her palms.

As long as Ah Chen can ascend to the throne, all the suffering she has suffered now will be worth it.Concubine Shu, Concubine Mei, these sluts, when she becomes the empress dowager, she will definitely make life worse for these sluts than death!

Ji Xiamo left the palace and went back to the prime minister's residence in one piece, and Ji Ye's tense nerves finally relaxed.Ji Xiamo only told Ji Ye that the case was solved, but concealed the danger, lest Ji Ye would be worried.

Ji Yikui was clamoring to play with Ji Xiamo. Ji Ye thought that Ji Xiamo was exhausted for several days, so he forcibly took Ji Yikui away so that Ji Xiamo could have a good rest.

Ji Xiamo didn't feel tired after sleeping for two days. After Ji Ye left, he set up a chessboard with Fang Linjun.There was no accidental loss, Fang Linjun covered his face and laughed, "It is said that the prime minister's son, Mr. Ji, is talented, but he is like an elm when facing the chessboard."

Ji Xiamo threw away the chess pieces, stood up and greeted Lou Yin in Meiyuan, "Lou Yin, help me torture him to death."

Lou Yin glanced at Ji Xiamo, and wanted to turn around and leave, but seeing Ji Xiamo's aggrieved eyes, he hesitated for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he had already sat down in front of the chessboard.

Fang Linjun wanted to get up and run away, Ji Xiamo dragged Fang Linjun to prevent him from running, "You play against Lou Yin, if you can beat him, I will obey you."

Looking at Lou Yin's indifferent eyes, Fang Linjun wanted to cry, but Lou Yin's expression was cold and the pawn had fallen, Fang Linjun had no choice but to fight hard.

Ji Xiamo squatted in front of the chessboard and looked at it for a while, then got up and walked to the table in front of the window, where Jin Wuji was helping Ji Xiamo test ink.Ji Xiamo sniffed the faint scent of ink, looked at the rice paper and said, "This is new ink from King Zhongyi, and it is said to be a limited edition."

"It is indeed a rare good ink." Jin Wuji wrote.

Ji Xiamo silently recited the poems written by Jin Wuji, with a teasing smile on his lips, "I know you are a swordsman, but it's rare that you can hold a pen with the hand that holds the sword. This handwriting is far better than mine."

"When I was young, my mother often taught me to practice calligraphy." Jin Wuji said.

"With these good inks, you can help me write more, and I will copy them in my free time."

Jin Wuji's eyes were a little embarrassed, he held the pen and didn't let it go, "My handwriting is not the best."

"You are not a master of calligraphy, but I like your handwriting." Ji Xiamo sat down in front of the table, picked up the oranges on the plate, and put them in his sleeves. "After writing, I'll peel the oranges for you to eat."

Jin Wuji hesitated to write again, while Ji Xiamo leaned on the table and looked at Jin Wuji.Chu Lingyou entered the house with winter plums in her arms, looking for a beautiful blue and white porcelain vase in the house, and carefully arranged the flowers like a pruner.

"It's warm in the early spring, where did you get the winter plum?" Ji Xiamo was puzzled.

"Just passing by the Three Princes' Mansion, I saw the beautiful wintersweet blooms, so I folded some to prepare, and it would look good in the house." Chu Lingyou said with a smile.

"You went to the Three Princes' Mansion to be a thief, and if you were caught, would you still want your life?" Ji Xiamo frowned.

"In the world of lightness, except for Jin Wuji and Jiang Fei, who can beat me." Chu Lingyou divided the winter plums into two parts and prepared to give them to Ji Xiamo and Fang Linjun. "You don't allow me to break the plum blossoms in the courtyard, otherwise I will become a thief?"

"Just what you owe, I'm afraid that the plum blossoms in Meiyuan will be harmed by you." Ji Xiamo sneered coldly.

"I lost." Fang Linjun hung his shoulders in frustration.Ji Xiamo followed the prestige, and saw that Fang Linjun and Lou Yin were playing chess on the chessboard.

"Sure enough." Fang Linjun looked at Ji Xiamo resentfully. "The ease when I played against you just now is not because I am too strong, but because you are too weak."

Ji Xiamo "..." The bastard room Lin Jun!

The faint fluctuations of spiritual energy lingered, Ji Xiamo immediately restrained his smile, Lou Yin left the house when he felt it, stood in front of the porch and looked towards the direction outside the mansion.

Ji Xiamo walked out of the room, followed the gradually clear aura, and the originally suppressed smile slowly relaxed. "A very familiar breath."

"Sheng Kong." Jin Wuji said.

[Main text Episode 161 Shengkong presents medicine]

Sensing Sheng Kong's approaching breath, Ji Xiamo immediately ordered outside the Qingmu mansion to greet him, and made hot tea to wait for Sheng Kong's arrival.

I haven't seen Sheng Kong for several years, his face has not changed, his plain monk robe is flowing, his expression is calm and indifferent, and the compassion between his brows remains the same.The shared joys and sorrows of the past surfaced in front of my eyes, as if it was still yesterday.

"Master Sheng Kong is safe here." Ji Xiamo led Sheng Kong into the room, and asked Sheng Kong to sit down.

"Old friends who have been separated for several years can meet again." Sheng Kong's eyes fell on the people gathered in the room, and his indifferent eyes were stained with a smile.

Ji Xiamo poured tea and handed it to Sheng Kong, teasing in a pretendingly complaining voice, "Master is missing."

Sheng Kong took the tea and thanked Ji Xiamo with a nod. He stared at Ji Xiamo for a moment, frowning slightly, "Is Ji Shaoxia still unhealed?"

"Although life is saved, it has accumulated into old diseases, and it still needs soup and medicine to nourish it."

Shengkong looked at Ji Xiamo's weak and morbid appearance, took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve and handed it to Ji Xiamo, "The poor monk once got half a plant of fairy grass when he was traveling, and refined five pills, now you have three left." So, if it doesn't cure you, it can relieve the pain of old diseases."

Just as Ji Xiamo wanted to decline politely, Jin Wuji had already put away the porcelain vase, and thanked Sheng Kong with a nod, "Thank you."

Lou Yin folded his sleeves and leaned against the window, glanced at Jin Wuji from the corner of his eyes, the silver light lingering between his fingers dissipated.Even if Jin Wuji didn't move, Lou Yin would help Ji Xiamo put it away.

Ji Xiamo rubbed his brows feeling helpless. Lou Yin also tried to give him some elixir, but it didn't have any obvious effect.His current body was like a funnel, no matter how precious the elixir was given to him, it would be a waste.

"Is Master Shengkong coming to the Imperial City for business?" Chu Lingyou asked suspiciously.

Sheng Kong glanced at Jin Wuji unintentionally, and served tea to cool off. "Wandering around the world is home everywhere. The poor monk happened to pass by the imperial city and thought of Ji Shaoxia, so he came to visit by the way."

"Master can come to visit Xia Mo, Xia Mo is really flattered." Ji Xiamo saluted with a sour air of a scholar.

Both Fang Linjun and Chu Lingyou were amused by Ji Xiamo, and Jin Wuji and Sheng Kong couldn't hide their smiles either.

"Where does master live now? If there is no place to stay in the imperial city, why not stay in the prime minister's mansion temporarily." Ji Xiamo invited Sheng Kong to live in the prime minister's mansion.

"Thank you, Shaoxia Ji, for your kindness, but the poor monk likes to be quiet in his cultivation, so he has found a place to stay in the imperial city." Sheng Kong declined Ji Xiamo's kindness politely.

"Is Master Shengkong planning to stay in the imperial city for a long time?" Fang Linjun asked.

"From what you say, you want to drive people away." Ji Xiamo smiled and thumped Fang Linjun's shoulder.

Fang Linjun thinks
