Chapter 208: To eliminate them outright or in secret?
"This is an invisibility talisman, it keeps you invisible for two quarters of an hour. Let's go."
As Yu Zhiyi spoke, completely unaffected by the talisman, she accurately grabbed Princess Ping's sleeve and threw her towards the study.
Princess Ping was increasingly shocked.
If she can't see herself anymore, how can she see herself?
However, compared to this problem, another question is more important: "But the door is closed, how are we going to get in?"
Yu Zhiyi looked confused: "This... of course, we go in."
What else? Fly?
She can't fly yet.
Swaggering past the two guards, Yu Zhiyi pushed open the door and quickly pulled Princess Ping into the room.
Princess Ping: "..."
The most sophisticated methods of thievery often require only the simplest way of walking.
The two guards froze when they saw the door open inexplicably: "This...this study isn't really haunted, is it?"
They guard this gate every day, so naturally they know many things that outsiders don't.
For example, every time the prince went into the house, he would talk to himself inside.
But after guarding the place for so many days, they saw neither anyone coming in or out, nor any servants bringing food inside.
If there's no one inside, how could the prince speak?
But if there are people inside, why don't they need to eat?
unless……
There is indeed something inside, but that thing is not a person.
The two had only suspected this before, but seeing the door open now seemed to confirm their suspicions.
One of the more timid guards was so frightened that he fell to the ground with a thud, his face as pale as paper: "This...this...there's a ghost in there! A ghost!"
The other guard was also quite frightened, but he was a little braver than his companion: "Ghost? What ghost? Have you ever seen a ghost dare to come out in broad daylight?"
"You stay here and keep watch, I'll go and inform the Prince!"
After saying that, he ignored his companion's deathly pale face and ran away in a flash.
The remaining timid guard nearly fainted from fright.
Hearing the noise at the door, Yu Zhiyi touched her nose: "Hurry up, the prince should be back soon."
She didn't tear off the invisibility talisman on her body, and quickly searched the house.
Strangely, there was nothing in the room that exuded yin energy.
There wasn't even any yin energy present.
Not only was it absent in the study, but the entire palace was also bathed in a clear, bright light.
However, since being reborn, Yu Zhiyi's six senses have become extremely sharp, and she always felt that there was something amiss in this clarity.
After searching around without finding anything, she stopped and frowned in thought.
If only Princess Ping says that Prince Ping is acting strangely, then perhaps her testimony is problematic.
But the two guards at the door were acting so strangely; they clearly knew something was wrong.
That proves that what Princess Ping said was correct; the problem lies with Prince Ping.
However, there were no reports of anything unusual about Prince Ping outside, nor were there any reports of anything detrimental to him in the court, indicating that Prince Ping was perfectly normal when he was away.
So, what's abnormal is the time he spent back at the Prince's Palace.
At first, he fell asleep immediately, but later he settled on this study.
study……
What do ordinary people do when they come to the study?
Whether you're reviewing official documents or reading a book, you have to sit down.
There is also a soft couch in the study, so you can lie down and rest when you get tired of reading.
Yu Zhiyi glanced at the table and suddenly sensed something unusual.
"So it was you!"
She walked quickly to the table, where she saw a jade fox paperweight.
The paperweight was warm and smooth, without any energy fluctuations.
But when Yu Zhiyi picked it up, she discovered that the bottom of the paperweight was covered with tiny characters.
Those small characters would just be exquisite clerical script to ordinary people, but in Yu Zhiyi's eyes, they were a Yin-locking formation.
The so-called Yin-Locking Formation is a formation that can lock in Yin energy.
With this formation, no matter what is hidden within it, not a single trace of its aura will be revealed.
Moreover, this formation also has the function of absorbing evil energy, and can absorb evil energy within a certain range.
Therefore, even if a person with spiritual attainment comes, they generally cannot see any trace of yin energy present inside.
"No wonder it felt so out of place."
She said that she always felt uncomfortable with the atmosphere in the Prince Ping's mansion, but she could not sense the presence of any evil spirits.
It turns out that yin energy had appeared here before, but each time it appeared, it was absorbed by the fox paperweight.
Upon hearing Yu Zhiyi's voice, Princess Ping hurried over and asked in the direction of the sound, "Doctor Yu, have you discovered anything?"
Yu Zhiyi hummed in agreement, then suddenly looked towards the door: "Someone's here."
Princess Ping immediately tensed up: "Is the Prince back? How could he be back so quickly?"
Yu Zhiyi also felt that it was very fast.
The reason why Princess Ping dared to send her over was that she was certain that Prince Ping would not be back anytime soon.
But they had only been inside for a little over a quarter of an hour when King Ping hurriedly returned.
Yu Zhiyi glanced at the fox-shaped paperweight in her hand, a knowing look flashing across her eyes.
King Ping moved quickly. Before the two had left the study, he rushed into the room and fixed his gaze on the fox paperweight that was "floating" in mid-air.
He wasn't surprised at all that the paperweight was floating, and hurriedly ran over: "Ah Li!"
That voice was full of deep emotion.
Princess Ping suddenly opened her eyes wide, looking at the anxious man in disbelief.
Despite being married for so many years, Prince Ping had always treated her with indifference.
She had actually made preparations long before the wedding.
After all, it was just a marriage alliance.
But she also had dreams about her marriage, hoping to have a loving and harmonious relationship with her husband.
In particular, King Ping was handsome, of good character, and had a gentle personality.
She had even higher expectations for this marriage.
After marriage, the two had a good relationship; for at least three years, they never quarreled.
No, except for the day she went to his study to bring him chicken soup and was kicked out.
But she could always sense that although they seemed to be in love, there was always something between them, like scratching an itch through a boot.
She thought that most men in the world were like that; they seemed gentle to everyone on the surface, but no one could get into their hearts.
Unexpectedly, she saw him looking so affectionate today.
But the name he was calling out was that of another woman.
Perhaps the other party isn't even human.
Before King Ping could grab her hand, Yu Zhiyi threw the town onto the table.
Prince Ping immediately rushed to catch it as if it were a precious treasure, nearly falling flat on his face, looking extremely disheveled.
Yu Zhiyi looked disgusted and walked to Princess Ping's side, asking, "Does Your Highness intend to eliminate that thing in front of the Prince, or secretly?"
