Chapter 1324: Chapter 1319: Chu Yifeng Pretends to be a Corpse Controlled by Gu

Su Yingxue definitely wouldn’t hide anything from him, she told the truth, “Aunt Qin Ge sent me a message saying that the Imperial family of the Great Wei Dynasty was facing a great disaster and asked for my help, to save Qin Muyan’s life at Bamboo Leaf Pass, but when I arrived at Bamboo Leaf Pass, I found him safe and sound, only suffering some minor injuries.”

“What happened in the Great Wei Dynasty? Could it be related to Ji Yun Country?” Chu Yihan’s brow furrowed even tighter.

Su Yingxue shook her head, “Aunt didn’t specify in her letter, it’s related to royal secrets, but it seems unrelated to Ji Yun Country, though I noticed Cousin hurried back quite hastily, I don’t know if he can quell the rebellion.”

Chu Yihan saw her worried expressions as her delicate brows furrowed, because not only was Qin Muyan in the Great Wei, but also Qin Ge and the Empress Dowager, who Su Yingxue cherished like her own grandmother.

His voice grew deeper, “The war situation is tense now, I cannot take you to the Great Wei to see for yourself, but you can send a message to Qin Muyan, if necessary, he may borrow troops from Me.”

Although the issues in Qiongzhou City and Ji Yun Country were troublesome, they were not grave enough to exploit the full might of the Great Cheng Dynasty, there were still many capable generals in the court ready for battle.

Su Yingxue joyfully embraced Chu Yihan’s neck, “Thank you, husband.”

He no longer cared about the matters regarding Qin Muyan, but he knew she still had family in the Great Wei, and she remained anxious about their safety.

She also sent Seventeen to carry her letter.

Seventeen seemed somewhat uneasy when leaving, asking in a deep voice, “Now? It’s very dangerous.”

Su Yingxue nodded, “The matters of the Great Wei are also urgent. You are skilled in martial arts, and I trust you. Go and return quickly, and be careful on the road.”

Zi Wei watched her spirited eyes and nodded, “Hmm.”

He would definitely return to her side quickly!

Chu Yihan only rested for one day before his vision was restored.

No matter how insidious the poison, in Su Yingxue’s hands, it could be easily neutralized. He praised Su Yingxue, and Su Yingxue smiled, “I have that old man, Saint Ruan, to thank for that. Medicine and poison go hand in hand, and he has studied poisons most thoroughly. You know? This poison powder is one of the poisons that the old man developed. It’s just a pity that the person who made the poison thought increasing the dosage would make it more potent, which isn’t the case.”

It was also fortunate that the small dwarf who mastered bone shrinking didn’t understand Saint Ruan’s poison well. If Saint Ruan had come to administer the poison himself, Chu Yihan’s eyes would have suffered greatly.

“Saint Ruan…”

Chu Yihan seemed to have thought of something and summoned several Shadow Guards to find Saint Ruan and bring him immediately to Ruo Shui Pass.

“Do you want Saint Ruan to come help you counteract Chen Ruobai’s Gu Poison Technique?” Su Yingxue actually wanted to say she could do it too.

But she knew Chu Yihan wanted to be more cautious, having Saint Ruan assist her, given that in the realm of poisons, the old man and Chen Ruobai could think of more cunning methods.

And her special skill in surgery also required Saint Ruan’s assistance.

Because Rong Sheng wasn’t beside them anymore.

Thinking of Rong Sheng, Su Yingxue sighed.

Chu Yihan gently stroked her face, telling her, “Rong Sheng is with Chen Ruobai now, and this time, I’m afraid there will be trouble.”

“How so?” Su Yingxue’s eyes filled with doubt.

Chu Yihan told Su Yingxue about how he smelled the fragrance and found the underground passage where the Gu corpse had entered. In this first battle, although he had achieved a great victory, Rong Sheng was indispensable. Without her perfume sprayed on the Gu corpse, Ruo Shui Pass would have likely faced a fierce battle, resulting in many casualties among soldiers and civilians.

Su Yingxue was happy about winning this first battle, but she also started worrying about Rong Sheng’s situation over there!

Especially at this time, Chu Yifeng lifted the curtain and entered, his voice cold and teasing, “Rong Sheng? That ice-cold woman?”

Chu Yihan slightly raised his eyebrows, “Did you remember something?”

As soon as Chu Yifeng entered, he sprawled on his soft couch and took his teacup, rudely taking a sip, “What did Your Highness forget? It’s just that I heard about that woman; she consorted with Xiao Muyan in the Xiao family, and although she passed messages to me, I find her annoying. She affects an air of superiority, as if someone is watching!”

He had spent a long time in the ghost market, surrounded by many beautiful female servants, but he detested the noble and cold type like Rong Sheng, beautiful to look at but clearly an unsubmissive and heartless woman.

His female servants were more comforting.

Su Yingxue clenched her teeth; Chu Yifeng’s words made people want to punch him!

But now, seeing him slightly more normal than before, she felt somewhat relieved.

It was better than seeing him and Rong Sheng torment each other.

“Since you’ve come, send someone to Qiongzhou City on my behalf to ensure Rong Sheng’s safety. The ghost market has many strange fellows; find someone peculiar to meet her in Qiongzhou City without being discovered, to act as her insider.”

Chu Yihan ordered coldly.

Chu Yifeng pinched his brows, “Alright, Your Highness knows.”

It was only his younger brother’s orders that could make him listen; otherwise, he wouldn’t bother!

Especially since the person he had to find for this task couldn’t be just anyone; it had to be a ghost!

Initially, Chu Yifeng tasked Ah Hong with selecting a person, creating a bizarre one similar to a Gu corpse to blend into Chen Ruobai and her company’s sight in Qiongzhou City, but when Ah Hong brought people over, none satisfied him.

An idea dawned on Chu Yifeng. Pointing at a man who contracted damp-induced disease, his face covered with pustules and very ghost-like, he commanded, “You, come here.”

This man seemed frightening outside, but he was very docile in front of Chu Yifeng, his voice rough and eerie, “Master, what are your commands?”

Chu Yifeng stared at him intently for a long time. Then he had Ah Hong bring a female servant skilled at disguising, and turned Chu Yifeng into the likeness of the man with the damp-induced disease.

Chu Yifeng changed into shabbier clothes and strode out.

Ah Hong was somewhat alarmed, “Master, are you planning to go to Qiongzhou City personally?”

“Otherwise? You think His Highness likes drawing on his face for fun?” Chu Yifeng’s eyes and brows slanted, a hint of ferocity spilling from his eyes.

Normally, Ah Hong wouldn’t try to stop him, but this time, he was going to meet Rong Sheng!

Would it really not awaken any memories?

They hadn’t yet figured out the medicine used by Rong Sheng, its side effects, nor how long it could make Chu Yifeng forget her!

But Chu Yifeng was unaware of his doubts, merely threatening, “Or else, I will cut out your tongue.”

Ah Hong wisely shut his mouth.

Chu Yifeng’s martial arts were on par with Chu Yihan, but unlike Chu Yihan’s upstanding heroism on the battlefield, he, long lurking in the ghost market and now bearing this face plagued by damp-induced disease, blended well among a group of Gu corpses in Qiongzhou City.

They thought him one of their own and did not attack him as an outlier while patrolling like city guards.

Chu Yifeng, mingling among these Gu corpses, seemed to be aimlessly wandering but was secretly observing them.
