When Xie Yingmian transmigrated to become Prince Ling's joy-bringing consort, Prince Ling had only one breath left.
She was being held by the wet nurses, forced to drink poisoned wine as ...
Chapter 549: I seem to be possessed by evil spirits recently
Yu Lingye chuckled: "He who keeps company with vermilion becomes vermilion."
"Your thoughts have somewhat influenced his style of doing things."
"Besides, Shen Tingsi and I agree that this is the simplest, most convenient, and most effective method."
Xie Yingmian agreed very much.
The Mu family is no different from other families.
The Mu family is the empress dowager's maiden family, and the empress dowager is one of the power centers of the Dayu Dynasty.
Another center of power was the emperor.
The Empress Dowager and the Emperor, at least on the surface, were of the same mind.
If the emperor and the empress dowager insisted on protecting the Mu family, the Six Punishments Department would have no way to stop them.
The Dayu Dynasty was the emperor's dynasty.
It is easy for those in power to erase a case or a family.
Only if we start with the people and spread the case to everyone before those in power notice it, and until it affects the credibility of the court, will those in power take it seriously.
"Chen Tingsi plans to start with the story of Doctor Qian," Yu Lingye said, "and have the storyteller, Tu Bufan, spread the story in various teahouses."
"In Doctor Qian's story, the story of the beggar mother and son and the bronze mirror was omitted. The focus was only on Doctor Qian's recognition of the murderer who had wiped out the entire Feng family."
Xie Yingmian: "Tu Bufan agreed?"
Yu Lingye: "Chen Tingsi summoned him personally, he didn't dare to refuse."
"He was here just now, didn't you see him?"
Xie Yingmian shook his head.
Tu Bufan has been acting a little weird lately.
In the past, Tu Bufan would go to Prince Ling's Mansion every now and then just for that dessert.
Tu Bufan has become a different person recently.
Not only does he no longer come to try new desserts, but when he does come, he looks listless.
"He might have been heartbroken. He can't muster the energy to do anything."
Yu Lingye:?
Fu Mo is such a big talker, but I've never heard him mention Tu Bufan's love affair.
It's just a rumor.
Outside Prince Ling's Mansion.
When Tu Bufan went out, he happened to meet Ji Yunshu who was about to leave.
When Ji Yunshu saw Tu Bufan, his expression froze.
Immediately, she smiled and greeted him, "Mr. Tu, what a coincidence."
Tu Bufan was stunned when he heard Ji Yunshu's voice: "Master Ji?"
"Why are you here?"
Ji Yunshu said, "I'm here to pick up my concubine."
Tu Bufan's heart suddenly sank, and he smiled a little reluctantly: "Why is Master Ji's concubine in Prince Ling's Mansion? Could it be that she was given by His Highness Prince Ling?"
Ji Yunshu: "Mr. Tu misunderstood."
"It was Princess Ling who discovered my concubine who had rushed over from her hometown while she was seeing a patient, and she came to ask me to take her back."
"My concubine encountered some trouble on the road and is not in good condition. I will take her back to the mansion first. Goodbye."
Ji Yunshu got on the carriage.
The carriage rattled away.
Only Tu Bufan was left standing there.
When Fu Mo knew that Tu Bufan had arrived, he specially took out the desserts he had collected.
After waiting for a long time, Tu Bufan did not come to cause trouble.
When he asked, he found out that Tu Bufan had left.
Something is wrong.
When Fu Mo chased to the door, he saw Tu Bufan standing at the gate of Prince Ling's mansion, looking distraught.
"Tu Xiaogou." Fu Mo patted Tu Bufan's shoulder heavily.
"What's going on with you lately?"
"You finally made it to Prince Ling's Mansion, and you ran away without even eating dessert? Were you possessed by someone or did something happen to you?"
"If you are possessed by someone else, I will find a Taoist priest for you."
"If anything happens to you, tell me and make me happy."
Tu Bufan came back to his senses.
He glanced at Fu Mo and said, "You can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth."
Fu Mo: "You're awesome, why don't you try vomiting?"
Fu Mo hooked his arm around Tu Bufan's shoulders and said, "Tu Xiaogou, I'm free now, do you want to go for a drink?"
"It's my treat."
Tu Bufan wanted to refuse.
Fu Mo: "You have to think carefully. I don't have many opportunities to treat you. If you miss this opportunity, you won't have it again."
Tu Bufan's words of refusal were stuck on his lips.
He's been in really bad shape lately, so it would be nice to have a drink and chat with a close friend.
Fu Mo and Tu Bufan went to the tavern they used to go to.
Tu Bufan was in a bad mood and drank several glasses of wine in a row. The more he drank, the more depressed he became.
Fu Mo clicked his tongue: "You must have really encountered something. This is the first time I see you so distressed."
"Come on, talk to my buddy."
After drinking, people tend to talk too much.
Tu Bufan was as depressed as a goose: "Black pig, you might laugh at me if I tell you this."
"Fuck, I seem to have been possessed by evil spirits recently."
Fu Mo:?
I thought of many answers, but I didn't expect this to be the answer.
"You went out on the night of the Ghost Festival?"
"The princess has the antidote. Go and ask her for one."
Tu Bufan shook his head: "No, I'm not you, why would I choose the evening of the Lantern Festival to go out?"
Fu Mo: Just talk about the facts, why expose his dark history.
"Then how did you encounter evil?"
Tu Bufan gulped down a large glass of wine: "That's what's strange. I haven't done anything harmful, and I don't walk around at night much, so how could I have run into an evil spirit?"
Fu Mo looked profound: "Tell me in detail."
"To be honest, I recently learned a mantra to suppress evil, and it's working. I'd like to see what kind of evil you've encountered and see if I can resolve it with the mantra."
Tu Bufan: "Really?"
Fu Mo: "Of course, every time I finish reading it, I feel that I am full of righteousness and that no evil can enter my body."
Tu Bufan, hoping to save the situation, said under the influence of alcohol, "I've been having a strange dream lately."
