Chapter 246 Set of Seals
Chapter 246 Set of Seals
A storm had already started in Lu Xuan's mind.
Her eyes moved slightly, and suddenly, as if she thought of something, her eyes lit up immediately.
"I know how to prove this!"
Jiang Xing immediately looked at her, "What method?!"
There is also endless expectation in his eyes.
Lu Xuan: "We all forgot that there is still someone we can use."
"Who?"
"Princess Yun!"
Lu Xuan stood up, a firmness in his eyes that was hard to ignore. "I placed Concubine Yun in Kunning Palace. She must have been in contact with Empress Ji day and night. As the protagonist of the wedding that year, Empress Ji couldn't be unaware of everything, right? Let Concubine Yun go and ask for us!"
"This method is wonderful!" After he finished speaking, Jiang Xing immediately stood up with a look of surprise on his face, "A Xuan, let's go into the palace now!"
"Wait!" Lu Xuan raised his hand to stop them. "What's our excuse for entering the palace?"
Jiang Xing didn't expect her to be worried about this. He gently tapped her cheek and said, "With me here, are you still worried about not having the chance to enter the palace? The Queen Mother is still in the palace! Why don't you just say you're going to see her?"
Seeing him smile so easily, Lu Xuan finally felt relieved.
"Then, let's go?"
"Let's go!"
In the carriage yard, the carriages of Prince Jin's Mansion were parked in a row steadily. When Lu Xuan saw those neatly arranged carriages, he knew that there were no carriages the day before yesterday. It must be Jiang Xing's doing.
Therefore, I glared at him fiercely.
Unexpectedly, the person in front of him laughed uninhibitedly, "It was my husband's fault the other day. Pick the one the princess likes best. Let's see which one brings the most happiness!"
Seeing his unruly appearance, Lu Xuan said unhappily, "If there's a next time, Your Highness, forget about ever riding in a carriage again!"
Seeing her face become more lively than usual due to her anger, Jiang Xing couldn't help but hold her in his arms, "As long as the princess doesn't say she wants to leave, there will be no such opportunity!"
As he spoke, he took her to the largest and most comfortable nanmu carriage.
In the palace, because Jiang Xing sent Feixing to Cining Palace to report the news in advance, the carriages entering the palace had a smooth journey.
However, when Jiang Xing and Lu Xuan arrived at Wuying Gate, they encountered a young eunuch from the Cining Palace who hurried over to report, "Your Highness, the Empress Dowager said she would go to the Great Buddha Hall to chant sutras and pray for blessings today. She has specially arranged a ceremony. Please come back another day."
Jiang Xing's brows furrowed.
Dharma Assembly?
When I sent someone to deliver the message earlier, why didn’t I hear the Queen Mother’s message?
But Jiang Xing didn't think it was a big deal. After all, it just happened. Maybe she had forgotten about it in the meantime.
Besides, today's visit was just a pretext, and the main purpose was to go to Kunning Palace to find Concubine Yun.
Therefore, although he was not unhappy in his heart, he still said with dissatisfaction: "I finally got some free time with the princess and the princess. I wanted to show my filial piety and visit my mother, but she said she had other plans!"
A trace of panic flashed across the young eunuch's face. "Your Highness, this is truly an unfortunate coincidence. The Empress Dowager is also thinking of you and your wife. She said that it would be the same if you bring your wife to see the emperor again in the future..."
Jiang Xing waved his hand impatiently, giving a reluctant smile, "Then let mother take care of her business! The princess doesn't know her way around this palace yet, so I'll show her around and we'll be back home soon!"
Having said that, he pulled Lu Xuan up and quickly walked in another direction.
After taking a few steps, he seemed to remember something and immediately turned back to instruct, "Tell my mother for me, I'll come to see her later!"
After saying that, he walked towards the Imperial Garden with confidence.
Seeing that Jiang Xing had gone far away, the young eunuch finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly turned around and returned to the Cining Palace.
The Imperial Garden is next to Kunning Palace, and Lu Xuan is confident that he can lure out Yunpin's soul there.
Entering from Tianyi Gate and walking around Qianqiu Pool, the two soon arrived under the wall of Kunning Palace.
Lu Xuan specially found a place with several dense osmanthus trees and took Jiang Xing to hide there together.
Then, he took out the soul-calling talisman he had prepared in advance and recited the incantation.
Ever since Concubine Yun moved into Kunning Palace, she has used Empress Ji's jade pillow as her soul resting place.
As soon as Empress Ji fell asleep, she would haunt her and give her nightmares day and night.
So even though it was afternoon, Empress Ji had been increasingly sleepy in recent days due to poor sleep, and she fell asleep again.
When Yunpin in Queen Ji's dream sensed the tight and familiar sound of the spell, she immediately came out of Queen Ji's consciousness and ran towards the source of the sound in a flash.
Sensing an extremely dense inky black aura rushing from Kunning Palace, Lu Xuan immediately opened his eyes.
"coming?"
Yunpin's soul lingered under the wall for a while, and in a moment, it turned into her appearance when she was alive.
There was surprise on her face, "Master, you called me!"
Seeing that she was in a good mood, Lu Xuan thought that her revenge plan had been gradually succeeding in recent days.
He hurriedly asked, "How have you been in Kunning Palace these days? Have you encountered any other persecution or obstruction?"
Concubine Yun smiled cheerfully, "Thanks to the Sect Master for protecting me and letting me in that day, everything has been going smoothly these days! I've been sleeping on Queen Ji's jade pillow, keeping her awake every night, and her health has been very poor recently. She's been dizzy these past two days and has been ill for several days. It's only a matter of time before I take revenge on her!"
"That's good!" Lu Xuan was genuinely happy for her after hearing this. "I came looking for you today because I expected you to have made some moves in Kunning Palace, so I came to ask for a favor."
"Master, please don't say that. You've helped me so much, and I deserve any reward from you!"
Yunpin always felt that Lu Xuan was not only her benefactor, but also a great benefactor to their entire family.
Lu Xuan then asked, "During the time you've been following Queen Ji, have you ever heard her mention the late Queen?"
Yunpin was stunned, "The late queen?"
She thought about it carefully for a while and said, "I haven't heard her say that before."
Lu Xuan: "Did you hear any words in her dream?"
Yunpin shook her head with certainty, "Almost none! She does dream about her elder brother Ji Cheng quite often, perhaps because she misses him. But I always take advantage of that opportunity to scare her, and now her dreams are almost all nightmares..."
Lu Xuan smiled and said, "If that's the case, I have a request that you need to fulfill for me."
"Master, please feel free to speak!"
Lu Xuan looked at the high walls of Kunning Palace. "I need you to help me find out the truth about the late Queen's death. I want to know if the Ji family killed her! If the Ji family was behind this, then Queen Ji couldn't have been unaware of it!"
Yunpin's pupils suddenly widened, "Master, Master, are you suspecting that the death of the late Queen is related to Queen Ji?!"
Lu Xuan remained noncommittal. "I can't rule out this possibility. After all, with Sister Siyu's death, the one who benefited the most was Empress Ji. So, I'll have to ask Concubine Yun for help..."
Yunpin lowered her head and smiled, "I have become a lonely ghost, and it was the Sect Master who rescued me and risked his life to create an opportunity for me to fulfill my long-cherished wish. How can I ask for a favor? It is my honor to be able to help the Sect Master! And since we have the same enemy, we should help each other!"
Jiang Xing had been listening to the conversation between Lu Xuan and Yunpin. At this moment, he couldn't help but say, "Forget the formalities. I want to ask, how long will it take to know the result?"
Hearing Jiang Xing's words, Yunpin was subconsciously shocked, "You, you, you can actually hear me talking?"
Jiang Xing was helpless, "I can still see you!"
Yunpin was surprised for a moment, but when she saw Lu Xuan holding back his laughter, she knew that her help must have been involved.
So, he immediately said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will definitely get the truth out of her in two days at most!"
