Chapter 206 Four Days Later, the Soul Returns

Xie Ci didn't go back to her own yard, but went directly to the front yard.

The lights in the meeting room in the front yard were on, and the four elders of the clan had heavy expressions on their faces.

Xie Ci took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Did you all know about mother's blood curse back then?"

These four elders were the law enforcers for her mother Xie Ling during her lifetime, and they were also the few people Xie Ci truly trusted.

When Xie Ling passed away, the four veteran law enforcement officers quickly assisted Xie Ci in stabilizing the situation on the island, and even made a lot of efforts in sending people to look for Xie Yuan.

One of the veteran law enforcement officers is the father of Xie Ci's current husband, Gao Zhenxuan.

"Master, your mother had no choice back then. Aside from you and Yu Tongyan, your mother was the one who loved the Second Young Lady the most on this island. But things change. Xie Jiang studied under the High Priest and learned almost all of her magic from him. She swore a poisonous oath that the Xie family would be destroyed by Xie Yuan's hands. Even the High Priest couldn't break it, let alone your mother."

As he spoke, Fazhi Gao burst into tears.

Where there are people, there are open and secret struggles. The four major families on the island have complex relationships and each has its own methods, but no one dares to make a move on the eldest daughter of the Xie family.

Xie Ci took a deep breath and clenched the teacup.

She always remembered the night before her mother passed away, Xie Ling told her: "Aci, there are too many things in this world that are beyond our control. They are all God's will. There is nothing you and I can do."

Xie Ci closed her eyes deeply.

Over the years, Xie Ci couldn't sleep at night, fearing that her daughter was suffering in some corner of Daliang.

The person who hurt her the most was not someone else, but her closest relative.

"Yes, Master, now that you've brought the young lady back home, I'm afraid she won't live long..."

"Your mother is also concerned about everyone on the island."

As soon as he finished speaking, a teacup fell to the ground with a bang.

The room suddenly became quiet.

Xie Ci clenched his fist and then unclenched it, "Everyone, get out."

-

Jiang Yunzheng had something on her mind, and she felt a palpitation in the middle of the night, so she kept her eyes open until dawn.

Her face looked bad, and Jiang Yunzheng put on rouge for the first time in her life.

The maids in the yard are called Zhinan and Handong.

Zhinan prepared breakfast for Jiang Yunzheng and said, "Second Miss, the head waiter said that after you have breakfast, she will take you to the priest's courtyard."

Jiang Yunzheng nodded. She didn't see Hou Yue in the yard and couldn't help but ask.

Zhinan: "Miss Hou saw that the peach blossoms on the mountain were in full bloom, so she went up the mountain to enjoy them."

Shortly after dinner, when Jiang Yunzheng was about to go out, Han Dong came to report that a man had come to the gate of the courtyard.

As he spoke, there was an indescribable amazement in Handong's eyes.

The separation between men and women on Xiejia Island is not as strict as in Daliang. There are many men of all kinds coming and going in the Xie Mansion. It is the first time that Handong and the others have seen a man with Qi Yunshen's temperament.

Like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, having experienced wind, frost and snow, after it is calmly withdrawn, its aura is as cold as the abyss, making people feel afraid and difficult to approach.

Jiang Yunzheng was wearing a yellow dress. She smiled and walked quickly to Qi Yunshen.

Qi Yunshen took a few steps forward and took Jiang Yunzheng's hand in advance. He looked at the expression on the woman's face. Her eyes were dark, and she looked haggard.

Jiang Yunzheng: "I just arrived on the island last night, and I'm still a little uncomfortable."

Qi Yunshen didn't say anything, just touched Jiang Yunzheng's head.

Just then, Hou Yue came down from the mountain and planned to go with Jiang Yunzheng.

Jiang Yunzheng shook her head: "You stay here."

When they visited the high priest, they should not bring too many people with them.

When Jiang Yunzheng and the others went over, Xie Ci had just finished dealing with her business, and she and Gao Zhenxuan were standing in the front yard.

Gao Zhenxuan had something urgent to do last night, and since Xie Ci did not inform him in advance, Gao Zhenxuan tacitly did not show up.

Gao Zhenxuan silently looked at the person not far away.

Early in the morning, Law Enforcement Officer Gao passed the message to Gao Zhenxuan.

Even if Xie Yuan returned to Xiejia Island, there was no need to worry. Xie Yuan would not live long, so he could put his heart at ease.

Xie Ci briefly introduced Gao Zhenxuan's identity.

Jiang Yunzheng responded, "Uncle Gao."

Gao Zhenxuan smiled and gave a jade pendant as a greeting gift. "Yuan'er, welcome back. We have missed you so much over the years."

Jiang Yunzheng smiled: "Really?"

She hasn't forgotten how Uncle Li instigated Xie Xuan to kill her.

Of course Gao Zhenxuan nodded, and his eyes naturally fell on Qi Yunshen.

Qi Yunshen's eyes were cold.

Xiejia Island is located in a secluded area, but people have heard a little about the Daliang court and wars, and naturally have heard of Qi Yunshen's name.

Xie Ci didn't say much. As soon as Xie Qing arrived, two carriages left the Xie Mansion one after another.

There were four people in the first car.

The car behind was carrying an ice coffin covered with black cloth.

The other end of Xie Mansion.

Xie Xuan was woken up early in the morning by Xie Ci's personal maid.

"Miss Third, you've missed a lot of classes since you left the island. The headmaster requires you to make up for it all within five days."

Xie Xuan jumped up and said, "What?! Five days!"

The female officer's voice was as hard as steel: "Farming and military affairs are your weaknesses. The rest of your classmates have already surpassed you by a lot."

Xie Xuan hugged the quilt and said, "No."

The female official paused, "Oh, there's one more thing. The headmaster said that as punishment for your escape from Xiejia Island, you must copy the "On Military Affairs" ten times."

Xie Xuan didn't want to move.

The female official brought a ruler.

"Miss Third, please don't disappoint the headmaster's expectations."

The moment the ruler landed on her, Xie Xuan flipped over and jumped to the ground, roaring, "I surrender to you! Why can't I go?"

The Priest's Court is under the exclusive jurisdiction of the head of the Xie family. It is located on the top of the highest mountain on the island. The courtyard has a wide view. A four-story library stands on the west side of the courtyard. There are very few servants in the courtyard. In addition to the main hall where the high priest stays, there are only three courtyards.

One belonged to Taoist Luo, and the other to Xie Jiang. A high priest lived there.

The high priest was very tall, taller than Qi Yunshen, but he was very thin, with black hair, red lips and white teeth, making it difficult to tell whether he was a man or a woman, and his real age could not be determined.

The collar of his robe was loose, revealing a large area of ​​fair skin.

It looks... not very serious.

The high priest first bowed to Xie Ci.

Xie Ci raised her hand: "This matter is confidential."

The high priest nodded. He first glanced at Jiang Yunzheng, narrowed his eyes, and then glanced at Qi Yunshen beside him.

After a moment, the high priest said, "Don't worry, Master. Go ahead and get busy."

Xie Ci nodded: "No hurry, I'll wait for you in the side hall."

Qi Yunshen: "Master Priest, please speak frankly."

The high priest raised his lips slightly and said, "No rush."

The high priest first glanced at the person in the ice coffin, sighed, and then led Jiang Yunzheng and Qi Yunshen to the cliff of the priest's courtyard.

There is a waterfall cascading down the cliff.

In the pavilion, the high priest waved his hand in front of Jiang Yunzheng. He pursed his lips and took Jiang Yunzheng's pulse again.

The high priest looked at Qi Yunshen again with an ambiguous look.

Jiang Yunzheng's palms felt cold.

"Don't be nervous."

"After all, I'm just cleaning up after my evil disciple."

"Four days from now, the five planets of gold, wood, water, fire and earth will reunite, and heaven and earth will return to their proper places. You can give it a try then."
