Chapter 1026 I am not from this world
“Your Highness the Princess may not know that although I look like an ordinary person, this body is not normal.
To avoid muscle stiffness, I take a hot bath for an hour every day and massage my muscles frequently, otherwise I would become like a real corpse."
I have lived an extremely difficult life these years, and I don't want to continue like this, so I came here to find Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Jiang Xue stared at him and asked, "What do you want from me?"
"I want to be a real living person, and you want the former crown prince to be reborn. We can make a deal."
Jiang Xue suddenly laughed: "Yun Zhen, your stories are getting better and better."
"Every word I said was true. There is no falsehood."
Yun Zhen looked straight into her eyes: "Actually, you also believe it a little, otherwise why would you discuss this with me, right?"
Jiang Xue put away her smile and said, "Yun Zhen, start from the beginning and tell me everything. Don't hide anything. Otherwise, it will be of no benefit to you."
Yun Zhen looked at Jiang Xue, then at Xiao Zhan beside him, and slowly said, "What I am about to say is very bizarre. Are you sure you want to listen, Princess?"
Jiang Xue said firmly: "You say it!"
As for whether you believe it or not, that’s a matter for you after you listen to it.
Then Yun Zhen began to narrate: "I am not from this world. I came here by accident. When I woke up, I found myself in the body of the former prince."
Xiao Zhan said coldly: "It can't be that simple, right?"
Even if he did use Jiang Ke's body to revive, he would need help to escape from the heavily guarded imperial mausoleum. What was the purpose of the person who helped him?
"Of course it's not that simple."
Yun Zhen continued, “When I first woke up, I was confused and thought I was doomed to die.
Before I could come to my senses, the coffin was opened, something sprayed under my nose, and then I lost consciousness again. "
When I woke up again, I found myself in a simple hut.
I tried to get up but found myself too weak to do anything. I wanted to call for help but couldn't make a sound.
Jiang Xue asked curiously: "What happened next?"
"After an unknown amount of time, a girl wearing a bell walked in. She called herself Su Yili, a wizard from the Ghost Clan of the Western Regions.
She told me that my existence was a mistake, her fault, and that she had brought me out of the mausoleum to correct that mistake.”
Jiang Xue and Xiao Zhan frowned, they were half-believing and half-doubting the sudden appearance of Su Yili.
If she existed, what did she do?
"Su Yili took care of me for six years, turning me from a stiff and silent person into a normal person except for having no pulse.
She said that although my soul was attached to the late prince, my body was a real corpse.
If you want to live like a normal person, you must follow her method and use herbs to bathe and massage every day. Unless you return to your own world, you can only live like this. "
Xiao Zhan asked, "You want to return to your own world. What does this have to do with letting the former crown prince be reborn?"
Yun Zhen smiled bitterly and said, "Since I can come to this world and possess the body of the former prince, he can also come to my world and possess my body. If you want him to be reborn, you need to help me go back."
Jiang Xue's eyes were deep: "How do you need me to help you?"
Yun Zhen replied: "Four years ago, Su Yili asked me to come to the Central Plains to look for you, the Princess."
Jiang Xue was puzzled: "Looking for me?"
"That's right."
Yun Zhen nodded: "Su Yili said that as long as I can take you to see her, she can let me go back and also let the former crown prince come back."
Xiao Zhan questioned, "Since Su Yili asked you to come to Xiaoxue four years ago, why didn't you come directly to Gan Kingdom, but went to Dongxiang to become the fourth prince?"
"On my way to Gan State, I was captured by Yun Jun of Dong Xiang and poisoned. As a result, everyone, including the Emperor of Dong Xiang, believed that I was the exiled Fourth Prince Yun Zhen."
"Yun Jun?"
Jiang Xue looked at Xiao Zhan in surprise: "Yun Che, I remember that he once went to visit my brother as an envoy to the Kingdom of Qian. Do you still remember what happened at that time?"
However, she was young at that time and had a vague memory of the relationship between Jiang Ke and Yun Jun.
"How could I forget? The former crown prince and Yun Jun hit it off right away. Whether they were talking about governing the country or drinking tea and playing chess, they got along very well."
Xiao Zhan looked at Yun Zhen: "What is his purpose in bringing you back to Dongxiang and giving you this identity?"
"Master Prime Minister is extremely intelligent. Can't you guess his intention?"
Yun Zhen replied: “Everyone knows that the eldest princess and the former crown prince have a deep relationship, and he brought me back to the East Prime Minister and gave me the status of the fourth prince.
He also asked me to imitate him, obviously to use him in the exchanges between the two countries. Before coming to the East, he also told me to take the opportunity to kill the princess. "
"Why?"
Jiang Xue was puzzled: “Over the years, I have been busy dealing with the affairs of Tianshui, Xixia and Southern Xinjiang, and have never put pressure on Dong Xiang.
Even if Ganguo accepted the tribute from Dongxiang, it would help suppress the rioters and build water conservancy projects. Killing me would not benefit Dongxiang, so why would he do this?"
"Does the Princess still remember Princess Yunchu?"
Yun Jun just wanted justice for her and her unborn child.
Jiang Xue immediately understood that the child in Princess Yunchu's mansion was most likely Yun Jun's!
It is no wonder that Princess Yun Chu would take the initiative to approach Xiao Zhan and even cooperate with Feng Ziqing's plan, seemingly all for the purpose of protecting Yun Jun.
Now that Emperor Dongxiang is critically ill and Yun Jun has taken control of the court, it becomes natural for him to avenge Princess Yunchu.
Dongxiang is just a small country and is not worth worrying about too much.
In contrast, Jiang Xue was more concerned about the increasingly powerful Tianshui Kingdom.
But none of this matters. The most important thing now is to find out Su Yili's identity and why she asked Yun Zhen to find her.
"Yun Zhen, I have never heard of the Western Region Ghost Clan. Why should I believe in the existence of Su Yili?"
"The Ghost Clan is mysterious in the Western Regions, and very few people know about it."
Yun Zhen explained: "As for Su Yili, she really exists. If the princess doesn't believe me, I can take you to see her."
Jiang Xue's heart moved: "Is she in the capital?" Yun Zhen shook his head: "No. After she took me away from the imperial mausoleum, she violated the rules of the Ghost Clan and was punished to never leave the Ghost Clan. That's why she asked me to find the princess and lead you there."
Xiao Zhan asked: "Why do you want to lead Xiaoxue over there?"
Yun Zhen replied: "Su Yili invented a formation that can summon the soul of the late prince using the blood of a close relative, so that I can also go back."
Xiao Zhan frowned: "But the former crown prince has a blood relative named Jiang Yuyin, why not her?"
No matter what Yun Zhen said, he felt that this was a conspiracy against Jiang Xue.
Yun Zhen's expression remained unchanged: "But the eldest princess is the last blood relative that the late crown prince saw before his death, so using your blood will have the best effect."
Jiang Xue took two steps forward, approached him and asked, "Since you are not the fourth prince of Dongxiang, what was your original name? What kind of world did you come from?"
