Chapter 743: Asking for souls (2)
Translator: 549690339
The students of the Imperial College called their friends out for a drink.
The supervisor reported this matter to the Chancellor and rebuked angrily, â nearly half of the students in the Imperial College have gone out to fool around. Today is not a day off.
The white-haired old Chancellor leaned on the soft couch and said without any expression, â
âWhat happened in the court today told us that the virtuous receive more help than the virtuous receive little help. The sage didnât lie to me.â
What the Chancellor meant was that they should not be enemies with the masses. In the face of the general trend, they should appropriately abandon the rules and be tolerant ⊠The supervisor was rebuffed and frowned in thought.
Huaiqing Manor.
Huaiqing, who was dressed in a plain white Palace dress and had long black hair like a waterfall, sat by the table. She looked at Lin âan who was in a red dress and smiled faintly, ââHe has never disappointed anyone, has he?â
âAfter this, fatherâs reputation and the royal familyâs reputation will fall to the bottom.â
She had an oval face and peach blossom eyes, and with a sweet smile, she said righteously, â if youâve done something wrong, you have to let it go. Although I donât like to read, the Grand Tutor has taught us that itâs best to correct our mistakes.
Being a simple-minded person was also a happy thing ⊠Huaiqing looked down on his sister in his heart, but he would not say it out loud.
It wasnât to give face to Lin âan, but she would definitely explode and then fly over to Peck her face.
Huaiqing was annoyed.
Smart people would not find trouble for themselves.
Seeing that huaiqing did not speak, Lin âan lifted his snow-white chin. The complicated jewelry on his head swayed as he said in a tender voice,
some people always talk about righteousness and say that father is wrong. In the end, when you are needed, you immediately stop talking.
As she said this, she looked at huaiqing with a proud expression, indicating that she had won this round. She had finally bet on huaiqing once.
Framed referred to the matter of bringing li Miaozhen and Hengyuan into the
Imperial City and taking them in.
Huaiqing smiled.
After Xu Qi âan killed the two thieves, the depression in Linâ anâs chest was swept away, and she became lively again. Moreover, because she had hidden the âtraitorâ the other day, with this participation, her thoughts were clear.
Otherwise, he would definitely hold it in for a long time. It wouldnât become a knot in his heart, but this was a simple heart, so it would be more or less shrouded in haze.
This was the reason why huaiqing had deliberately âgivenâ this credit to Lin âan.
However, huaiqing wasnât the kind of sister who would allow Lin âan to provoke her and remain unmoved. He smiled approvingly and said, âThatâs right, heâs much more responsible than your brother Crown Prince.â
Lin âanâs little face suddenly fell.
âIâm going back to my residence.â She got up angrily.
The pendant jingled, and a touch of light yellow reflected in huaiqingâs eyes. It was a piece of Jade with a moist texture.
The cold eldest princessâs eyes paused for a moment and she frowned, âWhatâs this on your waist?â
Lin âan stretched out his little white hand with the jade pendant in his palm.
Oh, â he explained.
this is the jade pendant that the dog slave gave me. The quality and workmanship are not satisfactory, but this was carved by him. Look, there are so many flaws. If it was bought, it would definitely not be like this.
After saying that, she raised her face in a show-off manner, revealing her beautifully curved chin.
Perhaps she didnât even notice that there was a little sweetness in her words.
Huai Qingâs pale face seemed to be in a storm, but it quickly returned to normal. âGet lost, donât be an eyesore.â
âI was going to leave anyway, Hmph!â
She felt that huaiqing had stopped her just to say this last sentence to regain his face and suppress her.
She turned around unhappily and walked into the inner hall, swaying her slender waist and her skirt.
After the red dress left, huaiqing angrily took out a small seal from his pocket and threw it on the ground as if he was venting his anger.
After a while, she got up again and picked up the skirt. After a careful inspection, she found that one corner of the seal was missing a small hole.
His two beautiful eyebrows immediately furrowed, and he felt a little distressed.
In a secret room in the stargazing tower.
Xu Qi âan took off the yin Nan and untied the red knot. Two wisps of green smoke emerged and turned into que Yongxiu and Duke Cao in the air.
As the two souls appeared, the temperature in the room dropped.
This Yin Nan was specially made by li Miaozhen. It didnât need an array to summon a new Ghost because the yin Nan had its own array.
Daoism was also good at making magic tools, although compared with warlocks, one was a side job, while the other was a professional.
High Duke Cao and que Yongxiu had just died, so they were still in a daze. They answered all questions without any thoughts.
âHow did you know about the city massacre case?â Xu Qi âan looked at Duke
Cao.
âAfter que Yongxiu returned to the capital, he met with His Majesty in secret,â
High Duke Cao replied woodenly.âNot long after that, I was summoned by His Majesty to inform him of this matter.â
âWhat did he ask you to do?â
âCooperate with him âŠ. He said. This included helping him spread rumors in the Imperial court.
High Duke Cao only found out about the city massacre case after the incident. Well, the value of this ghost had plummeted.
Xu Qi âan turned to que Yongxiu and said, ââDO you know the whole story of the city massacre case?â
âI know,â que Yongxiu replied with a blank expression.
âTell me the whole story of the case.â
Ah, her IQwas too low. She really couldnât take advantage of such a loophole. She had to ask questions one by one ⊠Xu Qian looked at him with disdain and asked calmly,
âDo you know that North vanquishing Prince is cooperating with the Dao chief of the earth sect and the high-ranked wizard of the wizard God religion?â
âI know.â
âEmperor Yuan jing knew about this long ago?â
âThe massacre of the city was planned by His Majesty and King Huai âŠâ
Xu Qi âan was not surprised by this answer, because he had already understood from the hints of Lord Wei that Emperor Yuan jing was most likely one of the masterminds behind all this.
âWhy did you massacre the city and not start a war?â Xu Qi âan asked.
the amount of blood essence required is too large. Itâs a waste of time. Furthermore, the start of the war will cause many uncontrollable factors to appear in the plan. This is not safe. This was que Yongxiuâs reply.
âWhat is Emperor Yuan jingâs real purpose in planning this?â Xu Qi âan asked again.
He had always felt that Emperor Yuan jing indulged the North-guarding King too much and was even eager for the North-guarding Kingâs promotion. This was not in line with the mentality of an Emperor, and he was a paranoid Emperor.
Could the two words âmartial arts fanaticâ really erase the suspicion and wariness of a shrewd Emperor?
âKing Huai said that once he advances to the second rank, he will be able to check and balance the supervisors, allowing the imperial family to have a true pillar of the country. There was no need to be overly fearful of jianzheng and Yunlu Academy. This is also His Majestyâs wish.â
This reason isnât enough. You believe it?
What que Yongxiu said next made Xu Qi âanâs expression change slightly. âYour Majesty, I want to refine a soul pill.â
Soul ⊠Emperor Yuan jing wanted to refine a soul elixir? Thatâs not right. Didnât the Golden Lotus Daoist say with certainty that the earth sectâs Dao head needed a soul core?
Therefore, one of the brothers wanted a blood pill, while the other wanted a soul pill. Hence, they were taking advantage of the commoners âŠ
Daoist priest Golden Lotus had said that soul pills were used to strengthen oneâs primordial spirit, act as. pill-refining material, refine magical treasures, repair an incomplete soul, and nurture artifact spirits ⊠These words alone did not seem to be enough for Emperor Yuan jing to risk the worldâs condemnation and sacrifice the people of an entire city.
Of course, the soul pill was only one of his gains. The blood pill could help the North vanquishing Prince reach the consummate level.
However, the one who benefited was North vanquishing Prince. In comparison, Emperor Yuan jings gains were not enough for him to take the risk and make this decision.
When a personâs gains werenât proportional to the risks he took, things wouldnât be as simple as they seemed ⊠Xu Qi âan pinched the space between her eyebrows.
He didnât think for too long and continued to ask, ââWhereâs the core of soul?â
[ Note 1: the first sentence is the Han Wu Emperorâs self-condemnation decree, followed by Chongzhenâs self-condemnation decree. ]
[ PS: tomorrow, Iâll collect the Alliance masterâs gifts for the past few days. ] Iâll have to thank you, but I wonât be able to make it in time today..
