Jiang Yuanfeng helped the man sit on the chair and slapped the emperor's blood-red face twice. However, the man still squinted his eyes, gasped heavily through his nose, and just waved his hands weakly at him, looking very uncomfortable.
Jiang Yuanfeng then helplessly put his hands on his hips, stared at him for a long time, and finally sighed heavily: "Well, I finally met you. Don't scare me here. I promise you, I agree to let Jiang Xu be the crown prince. I agree to let him be the crown prince, okay? But you have to agree to one condition of mine!"
The emperor finally held his head and slowly opened his eyes, looking at him with a weak smile, "What are the conditions?"
Jiang Yuanfeng snorted coldly, "I knew your brain, which has eaten too much meat, would easily go wrong whenever you met Ji Jiaru. You let Jiang Xu become the crown prince, but Jiang Yan..."
His eyes swept vigilantly over the broad face of the man in front of him, and he slammed his hands twice on the table. "You can't kill him! He can be stupid and crazy and accomplish nothing, but this person must live!"
"No problem, absolutely no problem!" The emperor's head, which had almost fainted from the pain, suddenly became clear and he smiled at Jiang Yuanfeng.
Lifting his eyelids to examine him, Jiang Yuanfeng sneered, "It's fine if you agree now, but once you get to Ji Jiaru, she'll say a few words and you'll have problems again. I'm not afraid to reiterate to you that I helped you secure the throne with my profound skills and support along the way. Without me, you'd still be a mere dog in the East Palace. If you dare to act rashly, don't blame me, your Third Prince, for being rude!"
The emperor smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed, and he could hardly see. "Don't worry, as long as you promise Xu'er the position of crown prince, so that he can legitimately ascend to the throne in the future, I will do whatever you say!"
He sighed contentedly, "Ah, you've worked so hard these years. If it weren't for you, my reign as emperor would have ended long ago! But it was you who said back then that you had to be the Minister of Personnel in order to control every position in the court. If it weren't for that, I could even give you the position of Grand Tutor!"
Jiang Yuanfeng sneered and said nothing.
However, Lu Xuan and Jiang Xing, who were outside the corner, had frighteningly pale faces.
Not only was every hair on my body screaming, but my heart was also shaking so much that it almost jumped out of my throat.
What did they mean by what they said just now?
What does a dog from the East Palace mean?
Why was Jiang Shaozhao so arrogant when speaking to the emperor in private, as if the emperor was obedient to him?
Lu Xuan's hands felt weak and he almost couldn't stand.
With a "squeak", the nails scraped against the wall, making a slight scratching sound.
Suddenly, the voices of Jiang Yuanfeng and the emperor stopped talking.
The air was startled for a moment, and before Lu Xuan could react, the world was spinning around her. She was suddenly carried on Jiang Xing's shoulders and ran towards the previous exit.
Jiang Yuanfeng and the other man followed the sound and quickly went around the wall at the bend, arriving at the wall where several people had been squatting.
Jiang Yuanfeng looked carefully towards the place where the sound came from, but saw that in the empty secret passage, there was no other clue except the flames that seemed to be blown by the wind.
The two of them looked around the empty palace corridor, then looked at each other, and after a long time they sat back in their original seats.
"Did I mishear just now?" Jiang Yuanfeng looked at the emperor doubtfully. "Maybe he was hurt by Lu Xuan again recently, so his reaction is wrong."
The emperor looked at him firmly and shook his head, "No, I heard it too. My kung fu is not weak, there was indeed a sound."
He looked around at the familiar secret passage. Seeing that the voice had disappeared, the emperor smiled comfortingly, "Perhaps it's been too long since it was repaired, and some parts may be damaged."
After this subtle sound, the conversation between the two did not continue.
Worried that something might go wrong, I said goodbye in a hurry.
Lu Xuan was carried by Jiang Xing all the way out of the secret passage. Fortunately, there was a quilt hanging next to the wellhead that blocked the view, so the young woman who was coaxing her child in the yard did not notice anything unusual about the wellhead.
After several people quietly got up, in order to avoid being discovered by the woman, except for Lu Xuan who quickly put on an invisibility talisman and still walked out of the yard in a swagger, the others directly climbed over the wall.
Only she herself knew that even the distance from the wellhead to the yard was a stumbling walk.
Everything that happened today was too sudden. The truth that she had been searching for for a long time was right at hand, but the news was so devastating that she couldn't help but feel as if both of her lives were being played with in her hands.
It was as if a huge powder keg was suddenly stuffed into my head, ready to explode at any moment.
How is this possible? Jiang Yuanfeng and the Emperor, what is the relationship between these two people?!
Jiang Xing, Fei Xing and others were waiting for her outside the wall.
They couldn't see her expression, so when they saw that several breaths of time hadn't passed, they became a little anxious.
Lu Xuan then walked in with a pale face, pulled Jiang Xing's hand, and whispered, "I'm out, let's go."
Jiang Xing heard the deep tone in her voice and knew that today's information was important, so he and his group hurried back to the palace.
When they arrived at the palace, the time limit of the two invisibility talismans on Lu Xuan's body had expired, and he suddenly appeared from the void.
When Jiang Xing saw her, he saw her with furrowed brows and a look of worry on her face.
His expression wasn't much better than hers, but he still hurried forward to hold her hand. "I think we need to sort out what happened today."
Lu Xuan bit his lip, touched the jade bracelet and nodded slightly, "There are still many souls in the bracelet who have helped me a lot waiting for me. Let's send them away first, and then we can discuss it properly."
Today's situation was far beyond her expectations. Otherwise, if Jiang Yuanfeng had noticed, these ghosts would probably have been persecuted.
Fei Xing and the others spontaneously went out and closed the door. At Lu Xuan's summons, more than a dozen souls quickly rushed out.
"Master, what do you think? Is the secret passage still there?"
"Don't forget what the Sect Master promised us before..."
"How could the Sect Master forget? Can't you see she's thinking about it right now?"
"Master, when will you start the revenge and redress for us that you mentioned?"
Lu Xuan listened to the conversation between you and me and raised his hand to stop them.
"I will naturally remember your needs."
After a pause, she rubbed her fingers in her sleeves, seeming a little worried: "But I learned a lot of things in that secret passage today. I'm afraid I have to send you away first."
"That secret passage is related to a shocking conspiracy, and you are all just pawns being used in it. If I keep you in the mortal world, I am afraid that you will be taken away by another traitor of the Shenji Sect like so many souls before you, and dissipate between heaven and earth. For your safety, it is better for me to send you to reincarnation first!"
The ghosts looked at each other in confusion at first, and then they remembered that their other companions had indeed been taken away by the master of the Shenji Sect, and their souls were scattered, so they all became a little afraid again.
They looked at each other and finally agreed to Lu Xuan's proposal.
"Master, I, I am willing to reincarnate. But can you please help me, let me give my family a dream and tell them the truth about all this? As long as they are no longer trapped in pain, I can leave without worries..."
"That's right, Sect Master, you let us see our families in our dreams. As long as they know the truth about all this, when you avenge us and redress our injustice, they will be able to witness it with their own eyes and vent their resentment..."
Lu Xuan nodded calmly. "Don't worry. When I send you to reincarnation later, I will add a mark of merit on each of your heads. When you reincarnate in the underworld, you can use this mark to find your family and tell them everything in your dreams."
After receiving Lu Xuan's affirmation, more than a dozen ghosts kowtowed and said goodbye.
Lu Xuan added a seal to each of the talismans he was preparing to send them to the afterlife, arranged the eight talismans into a formation, and quickly raised two fingers, closed his eyes, and chanted a spell.
A breeze blew, and eight talismans rose from the ground to the air. Lu Xuan stood in the center of the talisman formation, and eight blue flames quickly rotated around her. In a moment, a circular passage glowing with white light appeared in front of Lu Xuan.
"Okay, you can go now." Lu Xuan's voice was faint, ethereal and lonely, as if it came from the distant sky.
More than a dozen souls then realized that they had entered the reincarnation channel. They bowed and expressed their gratitude one by one. In just a blink of an eye, they were quickly absorbed into the power of rebirth.
After sending the ghosts away, Lu Xuan didn't have time to catch his breath. He stepped forward and nodded at Jiang Xing, who had been sitting in a chair with his chin in his hand, deep in thought. He said with worry: "We heard everything they said today. Don't you think there is a big secret in it that we dare not even think about?"
