Some things may have been destined from the beginning.
Song Mubai and Gu Yunsheng walked side by side in the palace shrouded in darkness.
The two of them were silent, and no one spoke.
They walked in silence all the way to the gate of the palace where Gu Yunsheng lived, and Song Mubai spoke first to break the silence.
"How have you been doing outside these past two years?"
Gu Yunsheng smiled and said, "That's good. Traveling abroad can help one grow a lot. Besides, traveling with hatred in one's heart is different from traveling without hatred."
"Yes, that's true. It's getting late. Go to bed early. We have important things to do tomorrow."
Song Mubai has a clear voice and his appearance looks even more handsome under the moonlight.
Gu Yunsheng nodded, "Okay, then cousin, go back and rest early."
After saying that, she turned and went in.
There was a hint of bitterness at the corner of Song Mubai's lips.
Cousin.......
Yes, cousins are a family.
Everything from the previous life is gone.
Song Mubai suppressed the complexity in his eyes, and when he looked up again, he had returned to being the gentle and graceful eldest prince.
The next day, Song Jiujiu, who was worried about something, got up early in the morning, washed up, and ran to Qiankun Palace with the tiger cub.
Last night, the family agreed that they would go to the prison this morning to watch Sister Gu poison Jia Rong You Lin and continue the interrogation.
She can't miss this!
Song Jiujiu went to Qiankun Palace and saw that her father, mother, Gu Yunsheng, and Rong Yanqing were already there.
"Mom and Dad, Sister Gu, Brother Yanqing! Shall we go over there now?"
Song Jiujiu called out in a baby voice, her big black and white eyes sparkled, and the two tufts of hair on her little head swayed, and it was obvious that she was very excited.
Song Jinming heard his daughter calling "Brother Yan Qing" and almost didn't realize who she was calling.
He caught a glimpse of the Ninth Prince looking at his daughter with a smile on his face, and then he realized what was happening.
Oh yes, the ninth prince’s surname is Rong and his given name is Yan Qing.
He knew that Jiuer had gone to have dinner with the Ninth Prince last night.
It's only been one night, and the two little rascals have become so familiar with each other?
He also calls me Brother Yan Qing.
Old father Song Jinming felt a little uncomfortable.
"No hurry, Jiuer, you rushed here and you haven't had time to have breakfast, right?
Let’s have dinner first and then go.”
Song Jinming waved towards his daughter as he spoke, and only felt relieved when he held the chubby daughter in his arms.
After the meal, several people went to the prison together.
It was the first time for Song Jiujiu to enter the prison. She lay in her father's arms all the way, looking here and there, very curious.
The only person imprisoned in the prison now is Jiarong Youlin.
Some of the former criminals were released during the amnesty when Song Jinming ascended the throne.
The prison had been vacant for some time, and the strong smell of blood had dissipated a little, but as soon as you entered, you could still smell the distinct smell of blood, as well as some rotten and moldy smells.
Song Jinming was very attentive to his daughter. Before she entered the prison, he took a small handkerchief and put it around her to cover her mouth and nose.
Ye Peizhu also wore a face veil, but Gu Yunran didn't care so much and didn't wear one.
Fake Rong Youlin was locked up at the end of the prison. When they arrived, he was handcuffed to a rack with his head lowered, and it was unclear whether he was unconscious or sleeping.
Gu Yunsheng didn't let anyone wake him up. She quickly moved her bare hands and successfully put a curse on Fake Rong Youlin.
She moved so quickly that the people present didn't see clearly before they heard her say it was okay.
Song Jiujiu's round face was confused. She opened her eyes wide and tried to look at Jiarong Youlin, but she didn't see any trace of the insect.
"Uncle, the Gu is already inside him. He will now obey us completely and answer any questions we ask truthfully."
Gu Yunsheng said softly.
Song Jinming nodded, "Okay, come, open the cell door and bring the person out."
Soon, the guards who were waiting not far away came forward, opened the door, brought out the still unconscious fake Rong Youlin, and tied him to the rack again.
The guard brought a bucket of cold water and poured it on Fake Rong Youlin, and he finally woke up.
Rong Yanqing walked up to him.
"You're awake. What's your name?"
The fake Rong Youlin still had Rong Youlin's face, but his expression was a little dazed.
He heard the question and answered subconsciously.
"My name is Zhao Zhi."
"What is the purpose of Xiedao sending you to Fufeng Country?"
Rong Yanqing asked the question again.
With the help of the insect, Zhao Zhi said a lot of things that Rong Yanqing had not asked before.
He even mentioned it a little bit.
"We were so close to controlling the Fufeng Kingdom's royal family through the Emperor, but unexpectedly, all our efforts were in vain."
As soon as Zhao Zhi said this, Song Jinming's family of three, as well as Gu Yunsheng, all thought of the old emperor.
Song Jiujiu remembered that the old emperor would take out some black pills and stuff them into his mouth from time to time, as if those black pills could save his life.
In the flash of lightning, Song Jiujiu thought of a possibility.
"Daddy! Could those black pills the old emperor ate be the so-called elixirs from the Immortal Dynasty?!
Daddy, if the evil sect of the Immortal Dynasty wanted to use the old emperor to control our royal family, then could it be that the old emperor didn't die at all, or was even rescued and brought back to the Immortal Dynasty by the evil sect?!"
After Song Jiujiu said this in a baby voice, Song Jinming and Ye Peizhu were shocked and cold sweat broke out on their backs.
Gu Yunsheng also frowned, "If this is really the case, then there are too many evil people involved."
Rong Yanqing didn't know what happened in Fufeng Kingdom before, so it was not appropriate for him to interrupt. He could only stand aside silently.
Song Jinming calmed himself down and asked Zhao Zhi, "How did you fail at the last moment? Can you, the evil sect, still control the Fufeng royal family?"
Zhao Zhi's eyes were empty as he answered mechanically.
"I don't know the specific situation, but now that we can't control the Fufeng royal family, we can only use other methods."
"What other methods are there?"
"For example, face replacement. This time I came to Fufeng Country, I was also looking for an opportunity to get close to him and find the most suitable opportunity to replace his face.
In this way, the evil forces can control the royal family of Fufeng Kingdom without anyone knowing!
As long as Fufeng Kingdom is controlled, the righteous path of Xian Dynasty will no longer be a threat!
As for using the little princess to threaten the Emperor of Fufeng, this was just a plan after the previous method failed."
Zhao Zhi’s words really make one’s scalp tingle!
Song Jiujiu gnashed her teeth angrily, "Have you, the evil sect, ever rescued anyone from Fufeng Kingdom before?"
Zhao Zhi: "I don't know. I don't have much say in the evil way, and I don't have the right to know about many things."
"If your plan succeeds and you successfully replace the Fufeng Emperor's face with yours, what will you do next?"
Song Jinming continued to question.
