Chapter 93

Yun Xuzhou took out the chief imperial physician's records.

It could be clearly seen that after taking the medicine for 15 days, there was no blood parasite in Yun Xuyang's body.

"When was it dyed?" Yun Xuzhou's pupils constricted. "The food sent to the prison was tampered with?"

After thinking for a moment, Yun Xuzhou slowly shook his head. "I followed your instructions and kept this matter a secret. The only people who know the inside story of Yun Xuyang's treatment are me, the chief imperial physician, and Yun Yi."

Sang Yuanyuan nodded gently.

"Sang Guo, Sang Guo!"

Yun Xuzhou sighed. "You really have foresight. If you didn't remind me to block the news early, I'm afraid this matter would have been known by everyone, and we wouldn't have been able to investigate it."

Sang Yuanyuan said, "Then where does the Regent plan to start investigating?"

"Naturally, we'll start from the chief imperial physician and Yun Yi.

Heh, only the few of us know about it. Someone must have accidentally leaked the news! "Yun Xuzhou paced a few steps heavily.

You Wuming, who was silent for a while, suddenly laughed.

"King You Zhou, what are you laughing at?" Yun Xuzhou asked with a frown.

"So you think the two of them are the ones who planted the parasite?"

"No!"

Yun Xuzhou flatly denied. "At most, the two of them accidentally leaked the secret. They can't be the real culprits. I still have the ability to judge people."

"So who planted the parasite?" You Wuming asked with a gentle smile.

Yun Xuzhou was stumped. "How would I know!"

"Go and find out how many days it takes for the parasite to come out of its shell," You Wuming said casually.

Yun Xuzhou sucked in a long breath of cold air and gave him a thumbs-up. "Smart!"

You Wuming: "…" This is called smart?

Yun Xuzhou's brain was not very good.

Sang Yuanyuan knew what he was thinking at a glance.

She pulled him aside and whispered, "Don't look down on me.

The Regent's ability is to control people. Look at how well she has governed Yunzhou. "

You Wuming was not convinced, "Then my Youzhou..."

"Your Youzhou is poor." Sang Yuanyuan was not polite at all.

You Wuming: "…"

He narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment, then nodded secretly.

In terms of overall strength, the Cloud State was indeed outstanding.

The climate here was terrible, and the resources were practically non-existent. However, under the governance of Yun Xuzhou, they did not fall behind anyone in politics, economy, and military affairs.

It was obvious that Yun Xuzhou's imperial skills were extraordinary.

You Wuming was still a little unconvinced. "Heh, that's because I wasn't serious."

Sang Yuanyuan: "Okay, okay, okay."

"Little Sang Guo, you're patronizing me again."

Sang Yuanyuan was no longer inferior to him. She narrowed her eyes and smiled at him. Her smile made You Wuming completely lose his temper.

The three of them returned to the study. Sang Yuanyuan continued to pick up the brush and draw the black hall according to her memory.

After a quarter of an hour, she finally drew a rough outline.

Yun Xuzhou took it and looked at it for a while. His brows furrowed even tighter. "If I'm not wrong, this is..."

At this moment, the two investigation teams came to a conclusion!

One was that the name list of the people who had been given the surname Yun had been thoroughly checked. There was no 'Yun Zhuo' or any similar name.

The other was that according to the time the blood parasite hatched, the day Yun Xuyang was poisoned was the day he went to the ancestral temple to participate in the clan meeting!

"The parasite was poisoned at the clan meeting?" Yun Xuzhou's pupils shrank.

You Wuming did not look surprised at all. He crossed his arms and leaned back in the large wooden chair, looking very bored.

Yun Xuzhou shook the drawing in his hand. "I was just about to say that this is the ancestral temple!"

"Oh!" You Wuming raised his eyebrows and revealed a smile that deserved a beating. "It matches."

"So the person who poisoned the Yun royal family was this Yun Zhuo!"

Yun Xuzhou clenched his fists. "No, that's not right. He's just a knife. The person holding the knife is Tian Tan!

What a Tian Tan!

Ah, everything makes sense now!

The name 'Yun Zhuo' is targeted at the Yun family. He appeared at the ancestral temple, and after Xiaoyang went to the clan meeting, he was poisoned with a new parasite egg. If it wasn't him, who else could it be! "

Yun Xuzhou could not help but raise his fist and slam it on the table. "Yun Zhuo, how could he die!"

Sang Yuanyuan and You Wuming looked at each other.

Yun Xuzhou was a person who did not care about trifles. There was nothing wrong with dealing with big matters and grasping the general direction.

But when it came to trifles, he was careless and confused.

You Wuming and Sang Yuanyuan met Yun Zhuo in Bai Zhou, and he died that day.

Three days later, You Wuming and his group came to Yunzhou. Yun Xuzhou went to the clan meeting and did not come to pick them up personally. On the day of the clan meeting, Yun Zhuo's corpse had been turned into ashes by Bai Zhou's King. How could he have poisoned Yun Xuyang?

The two of them looked at each other silently.

Go to the ancestral temple.

Get to know the old emperor of the Yun family who was all-powerful five hundred years ago.

However, there was no evidence at the moment. If they rashly said that they suspected the old ancestor, they would definitely be asking for a beating.

They had to think of a way to save the country.

"It doesn't matter. Yun Zhuo is dead, but there are still many things to do." You Wuming smiled faintly. "Prince Regent, do you want to go to Tiandu to catch people?

I can help you. "

Yun Xuzhou nodded. "Let's cooperate!"

Sang Yuanyuan looked a little hesitant and said slowly, "I think this matter is too important. Before we set off, is there a way to take me to the ancestral temple to see the hall with my own eyes? If there is a misunderstanding because of my poor painting skills, that would be terrible."

Yun Xuzhou was a little embarrassed. "The old ancestor needs to rest quietly. No one dares to disturb the ancestral temple on the day of the clan meeting."

Sang Yuanyuan and You Wuming looked at each other silently.

Sang Yuanyuan asked, "How is the old ancestor's body?

Is he paralyzed and bedridden?

Or can he occasionally get up and move? "

Yun Xuzhou shook his head slowly. "For so many years, no one has ever seen the old ancestor leave that bed."

"Why don't we go quietly in the middle of the night?

Don't alarm anyone. "Sang Yuanyuan winked slyly." Anyway, the old ancestor doesn't get out of bed. We won't attract his attention. "

Yun Xuzhou: "… Sang Guo, you are so naughty. You are so similar to Young Phoenix at that time!"

As soon as he said that, Yun Xuzhou couldn't help but be startled. His eyes were a little gloomy. That person was so interesting when he was disguised as a woman. How could he be a man …

"Does the Prince Regent want to be a bad boy for once?"

Sang Yuanyuan winked playfully. "Anyway, on the day of the clan meeting, the Prince Regent has been severely scolded by the old ancestor. Even if you are caught, the worst case scenario is that you will be scolded again. Anyway, you will be scolded by the old ancestor. Scolding a few times makes no difference."

Yun Xuzhou: "…" He was instantly convinced.

"Well, let's take a look at that hall."

Yun Xuzhou patted the drawing paper on the table with his hand. "Indeed, just by looking at such a painting, it is a bit childish to rashly determine that this is a temple."

"So what if it is just a painting?

Can my Sang Guo's painting be bad? "You Wuming lazily sat up straight and grabbed the drawing paper to take a look.

The corner of his mouth twitched, and then twitched again.

Yun Xuzhou looked at him sympathetically.

You Wuming: "… It is necessary to confirm."

"Pfft." Yun Xuzhou covered his mouth and laughed. "Then it's settled. I will go and prepare the night clothes."

Yunzhou was different from other places.

There was white snow and ice everywhere and ice core buildings that emitted a light blue halo. If one wore black clothes and walked in the night, one could see clearly from a hundred miles away.

Therefore, the night clothes had to be specially made blue-white translucent shorts.

The sky gradually darkened. Yun Xuzhou led Sang Yuanyuan and You Wuming on a snow sled and secretly sneaked to the ancestral temple.

Sang Yuanyuan looked up and saw that this was an ordinary large temple. Two strings of large lanterns hung on the main entrance. The surroundings were quiet, and a few old trees were covered in snow. It looked very auspicious.

It was indeed a good place for the elderly to retire in peace.

Yun Xuzhou pointed at a snow bodhi tree with a snow-white crown in the courtyard of the temple and said, "There, that snow bodhi tree is planted under the main hall that we are going to.

The old ancestor lives in the courtyard behind the main hall. "

Sang Yuanyuan looked up and saw that the location was quite deep.

There were shadows moving inside the walls, and there were also groups of imperial guards patrolling back and forth.

The place wasn't big, and the security was very tight. It didn't look like it was possible to sneak in.

"It looks like someone needs to lure the guards away." Sang Yuanyuan looked at You Wuming, the large human bait.

"No need.

Come. "Yun Xuzhou waved her hand." Let's go in through the snow cave. "

"Snow cave?"

"Cough."

Yun Xuzhou put her fist to her lips and coughed lightly. "The family meeting is long. After seeing the ancestor, the children can't stand the loneliness. They will take advantage of the time when the imperial guards change to sneak in through the snow cave.

It's a tacit secret of the royal family. "

Sang Yuanyuan giggled. "We've all been children. I understand, I understand."

The three of them went around to the snow pine behind the ancestral temple. Yun Xuzhou dug around the tree trunk for a while and really dug out a big snow cave.

"Let's go." She took the lead and went in.

The snow cave was warmer than expected. Yun Xuzhou lit a cold flame lamp and bent over in the snow cave. She ordered You Wuming, who was walking at the back, to put the leather curtain hanging above the tree hole back to its original position.

"In a while, when the snow falls, there won't be any traces left." Yun Xuzhou smiled proudly.

The three of them walked through the snow cave. In the time it took to drink a cup of tea, they successfully arrived at their destination.

Yun Xuzhou lifted the leather curtain and took out the sleigh whip from behind her waist. She carefully drilled a hole in the snow in front of her, and then put her eyes on it to look outside.

"Shh," she whispered. "In a while, the guards at the entrance of the hall will change.

We'll take advantage of that time to sneak into the hall. "

She put away the sleigh whip and hit her forehead with her fist. She sighed. "I can't remember how many years it has been since I did such a deviant thing!

In fact, I could have openly walked through the front door. I've really been poisoned by you, Sang Guo! "

Sang Yuanyuan hurriedly explained, "No, no.

It's obvious that you, the Regent, were scolded by the ancestor and didn't dare to walk through the front door. "

Yun Xuzhou: "…" When he said that, why did she feel that something was wrong?

After a while, Yun Xuzhou put her eyes on the small snow cave again and took a look. Then, she simply pushed the snow in front of her away and jumped out of the snow cave.

Sang Yuanyuan and You Wuming followed closely behind.

When they came out, it turned out that the entrance of the snow cave was also a tree hole. It was the Snow Bodhi planted under the steps of the main entrance of the hall.

Yun Xuzhou turned around and pulled down the leather curtain that blocked the tree hole. She sprinkled a few handfuls of snow on it, and then jumped up lightly. She took Sang Yuanyuan and You Wuming straight to the corridor of the main hall.

The guards were changing their guard round by round. If it weren't for this snow cave, it would really be impossible to sneak in.

Yun Xuzhou narrowed her eyes and looked for a moment. Seeing that there were no big flaws, she carefully pushed open the heavy black wood door of the hall. Sang Yuanyuan and You Wuming flashed into the hall.

Yun Xuzhou gently closed the door of the hall.

At the arched doors on both sides of the corridor, two groups of guards who were changing their guard happened to walk out. They walked to the door of the main hall and stood still.

"The next time they change their guard, we'll leave." Yun Xuzhou mouthed.

Sang Yuanyuan nodded and walked into the hall. She looked around.

The hall was lit with an everlasting lamp, so illumination wasn't a problem.

This was indeed the place where Zhuo Yun had appeared.

Sang Yuanyuan compared it with the main hall in her memory. She found that the heavy cloth hanging down from the ceiling of the hall in front of her was slightly newer than what she saw in the Tian Yan Mirror.

Therefore, the scene in the Tian Yan Mirror was the scene of the clan meeting several years later.

In the original plot, without You Wuming, this cruel and perverted enemy, Han Shaoling and Meng Wuyou spent several years in peace. They could only abuse each other and deal with the various supporting male and female leads. The group of people in the Temple of Heaven only needed to use a little seven-colored power to maintain Meng Wuyou's Mary Sue halo. They didn't need to pour a large amount of seven-colored power into the fragment in Meng Wuyou's hand. Zhuo Yun also didn't need to sacrifice himself.

But now, everything had been turned upside down.

Han Shaoling was dead. Huangfu Jun was dead. Zhuo Yun was also dead.

Meng Wuyou had fallen into the hands of the Underworld Demon King. It was unknown whether she was dead or alive.

In the near future, the Temple of Heaven would definitely be turned upside down. At that time, it would be very difficult to say what would happen.

In a sense, Sang Yuanyuan and You Wuming really seemed like villains and devils. The two of them destroyed the originally peaceful and stable 'future'.

Who should be blamed for all of this?

She couldn't let the two of them lie down and let them be killed, right?

Yun Xuzhou nudged Sang Yuanyuan with her shoulder, interrupting her thoughts.

"Are you sure?" Yun Xuzhou mouthed.

Sang Yuanyuan nodded.

"Then prepare to go back the way we came. It's time to change the guard," Yun Xuzhou said.

Sang Yuanyuan looked up at You Wuming.

He was playing with the small copper incense burner on the incense table.

When their gazes met, they understood each other tacitly.

He clumsily put the incense burner back to its original place.

The incense table was made of iron. When the hard leg of the incense burner fell on it, there was a crisp "clang" sound, and the sound of the collision lingered in the room.

"Oh no!" Sang Yuanyuan grabbed Yun Xuzhou. "Quickly hide!"

Yun Xuzhou's mind went blank. She subconsciously grabbed Sang Yuanyuan and rushed to the back of the hall.

The guards outside reacted for a moment, then suddenly pushed open the door of the hall and rushed in.

"Check carefully!"

From time to time, there would be snow cats, snow rabbits, snow rats, and other animals entering the hall and bumping into things, so the guards didn't rashly think that it was a thief.

Yun Xuzhou's scalp went numb. She hurriedly took Sang Yuanyuan and Sang Yuanyuan out of the hall through the small door behind the statue and entered the small courtyard where the ancestor was recuperating.

She regretted it so much at this moment!

The dignified Prince Regent had become a thief after entering the ancestral temple. It was really a mistake. There was no turning back.

Under the cover of her night clothes, she quickly took Sang Yuanyuan and Sang Yuanyuan to the side of the corridor.

She pointed to the roof with four corners. "The ancestor is afraid of noise, so there are no guards in the courtyard. There are only four personal masters, each watching a corner."

Sang Yuanyuan looked up in a daze. Her position was exposed under the eyes of the master on the opposite side.

She saw a middle-aged man sitting on the roof diagonally opposite, with a gourd hanging on his waist. At this moment, his eyes were staring straight at Yun Xuzhou, not moving at all.

Sang Yuanyuan: "…" Did this mean that they were caught red-handed?

Yun Xuzhou gently shook her head at the master on the roof.

Immediately, the middle-aged man on the roof slowly turned his eyes to the other side, as if he didn't see the three people at all.

"He is the person I arranged at the beginning." Yun Xuzhou shrugged, looking like a broken jar.

She had never thought that the master who was specially sent to guard the ancestor would have such a role — to help cover for her as a thief.

Sang Yuanyuan replied with his mouth, "But the guards in front are coming in to check. What should we do?"

Yun Xuzhou was also completely numb.

The dignified Prince Regent was caught red-handed here. She really had no place to hide her face!

"Why don't we hide in the ancestor's house?"

Sang Yuanyuan suggested sincerely, "At worst, we'll be scolded by the ancestor. It's better than being caught."

Yun Xuzhou: "…" What kind of sin did she commit tonight?!

Under the leadership of Yun Xuzhou, the traitor, the three people stuck close to the corridor and quickly sneaked into the main house in the backyard.

She took the time to make a gesture to the guard she had arranged. He jumped and rushed to the other person on the vertical line, deliberately talking to him, and covered Yun Xuzhou and the other two people to sneak into the house.

A large screen blocked the door.

"Let's hide here." Yun Xuzhou patted her chest and said softly, "I hope we won't alarm the ancestor."

Before she finished speaking, she saw You Wuming's figure flash, go straight through the screen, and break into the house.

Yun Xuzhou: "You Wuming!!!"

She didn't care about keeping quiet, hurriedly went around the screen and chased in.

How could she make it in time?

You Wuming had already broken into the bedroom on the left and stood in the middle of the house. He slowly turned around, a faint and strange smile on his lips, "Can't leave the bed? Where is he?"

Yun Xuzhou's pupils suddenly shrank, and she looked up at the warm jade bed.

There was not a single person at all.

Yun Xuzhou's almond-shaped eyes were wide open, and a storm of shock flashed in her eyes.

Why wasn't the ancestor, who had been paralyzed in bed for hundreds of years, on the bed?!

"What's going on?

Where is the ancestor?! "She suddenly turned around." How are they guarding him?! "

In her shock and anger, she forgot that she was a thief at this moment. She wanted to rush out of the door and denounce the guards who were guarding the ancestor.

Sang Yuanyuan quickly grabbed her. "Shh …"

Yun Xuzhou raised her eyes and glared at him.

"Don't move." Sang Yuanyuan anxiously pointed at the end of the bed.

Yun Xuzhou took a closer look and saw that there was actually a Hell Dragon there. Its half-closed eyes were slowly turning towards the three of them.

"It ate the ancestor?" Yun Xuzhou's gaze swept towards the Hell Dragon's transparent abdomen in a daze. "… It wasn't in its abdomen.

What's going on? Why is there a Hell Dragon in the ancestor's room? "

"Not only that." Sang Yuanyuan's face was full of pain. "Listen."

Yun Xuzhou immediately heard a dense rustling sound.

In the blink of an eye, the four walls, pillars, roof, and floor were densely packed with transparent ice creatures, covering the entire room.

There were Hell Ice Snakes, Hell Scorpions, Hell Ants, and some strange creatures with unknown names.

They flashed their claws and fangs at the three intruders.

You Wuming and Sang Yuanyuan looked at each other. It seemed that the ancestor of the Yun family had a lot of secrets!

"It's like a trap," Yun Xuzhou said calmly.

The movements in the room alarmed the masters outside.

Coincidentally, the guards who came from the front hall also arrived.

"Lord, there are traces of being attacked in the hall!"

Countless gazes were cast towards the main room.

The guard arranged by Yun Xuzhou had no reason to stop others, so he could only rush to the door first and gently knock on the door. "Ancestor?"

The three people in the room looked at each other.

They couldn't hide it anymore.

Yun Xuzhou looked at the poisonous insects approaching the room, sighed, and said loudly, "The ancestor secretly wants to talk to me at night. All of you, retreat and don't come close."

His voice was steady and unquestionable.

The several people outside were stunned. After a moment, a series of surprised voices rose and fell. "His Highness Regent?!"

"It's me." Yun Xuzhou shouted in a deep voice. "Retreat!"

"Yes!"

Yun Xuzhou's eyes flashed slightly. She stared at the alarmed Hell Dragon that was slowly baring its sharp teeth.

"It's too noisy to fight. I'm afraid they'll still break in." She tilted her head and stared at Sang Yuanyuan and Sang Yuanyuan. "After the fight, you'd better give me an explanation."

"Let's fight first and talk later!"

Sang Yuanyuan immediately summoned the large-faced flower. "Kelp" flew and sealed all the doors and windows. "Let's fight. They won't be able to come in for a while unless we tear down this room."

Yun Xuzhou sighed helplessly. She took out the snow whip from behind her waist. A bright flame ignited on the whip, and she swept it towards the snakes, insects, rats, and ants.

When the snow whip swept over, a sizzling sound was heard. However, the bright flame on the whip seemed to be swallowed and quickly diminished!

Yun Xuzhou gasped. She took back the snow whip in disbelief. She saw that the snow whip seemed to have been burned by sparks, and there were countless potholes and rainbow-colored dents on it.

"It's that power." You Wuming relaxed his brows, and a faint smile appeared on his lips. "Little Sang Guo, try to eat them!"

"Eh?

Didn't you say that I can't eat these things randomly? "

"Pig Head Flower, eat. I didn't tell you to eat them."

Sang Yuanyuan: "… Oh."

She threw out the flower.

She controlled the man-eating flower and carefully took a small bite, only picking up an ice scorpion.

The petals moved, and the ice scorpion turned into a small stream of ice. Sang Yuanyuan felt a slight burning pain in his head, as if it had been washed by wasabi.

He didn't feel any danger, but it didn't feel good.

You Wuming's body ignited with black flames, and a small circle of safety was cleared out around the three of them.

"The rainbow-colored power in these things is much denser than in the natural insect beasts," You Wuming said calmly. "Try to refine them and use them for yourself."

Sang Yuanyuan knew that You Wuming wanted to take her to break through her limits and obtain the power to fight against the mysterious unknown.

"It's just wasabi. It's no big deal!"

She raised her hands and threw out five man-eating flowers, which protected the three of them tightly. "You Wuming, go and deal with the Underworld Dragon. Leave this to me!"

You Wuming floated up, stepped on the man-eating flower petals, and floated towards the Underworld Dragon that was stretching out its body to attack.

Just as they exchanged blows, another Underworld Dragon slowly crawled out from under the bed.

This Underworld Dragon was even more special. The rainbow-colored light on its body was about to be released.

"Oh, you're protecting the bed." You Wuming's smile was full of mischief. The black flames in his hand rose, and he floated over like a large black butterfly.
