Chapter 166: Could it be that he is using soul-stealing to control people?
"Are you doubting that you are not the emperor's heir?"
"Yeah." Xiao Yuchen was indeed a little skeptical, but if he really wasn't the emperor's child, why didn't his mother tell him?
And how did his mother disappear? He remembered that his mother had been in the palace and hadn't gone anywhere. His aunt said that she had just disappeared while lying in bed. At that time, he thought his aunt was lying to him, that she had said that on purpose because she was afraid of making him sad.
Later, after his mother disappeared, the emperor was furious and dragged away all the palace maids and servants in his mother's palace and killed them.
In fact, he thought in his heart that it was better that he was not that man's child. In this way, even if he returned to the palace in the future, he would not feel any guilt. As for who his biological father was, it didn't matter.
"Yuan'er, are you in there?"
A female voice was heard outside. Jiang Nanyuan and Xiao Yuchen looked at each other and walked out of the yard together. They saw that the person standing outside was Jiang Yamin.
Jiang Nanyuan saw him coming over, opened the door and walked out, "Aunt, why are you here? What do you want to see me about?"
Hearing Jiang Nanyuan's question, Jiang Yamin hesitated a little. She subconsciously grabbed the corner of her clothes with both hands and rubbed them several times. She nodded and looked at Xiao Yuchen, "Well, I have something to talk to you about. Can we go in and talk?"
She had just gone to Jiang Nanyuan's house to look for her, and Lin Zhixue told her she was here, so she came back.
"Well, come in."
After Jiang Nanyuan finished speaking, Xiao Yuchen took the initiative to make way for Jiang Yamin and let her enter the room.
After they entered the house, Jiang Nanyuan asked curiously, "Aunt, what can I do for you?"
Jiang Yamin prepared herself mentally for a while, thinking that since she was already here, she might as well just say it directly. She took a few deep breaths and then told him the purpose of her visit.
"Yuan'er, this is what I've noticed: my husband has been acting strangely lately. Several times during the past few nights, I've woken up to find him not in the house. I don't know where he goes at night, and he usually comes back very late."
Ever since Lin Jingrui came back, their relationship has become very distant. Even when they live in the same room at night, he always sleeps on the floor and never sleeps in the same bed with her.
Last time, she found that she didn't see him on the ground when she got up at night. She became suspicious and wondered what he was doing out so late. She wanted to get up and look for him, but before she got up, he had already come back, so she immediately pretended to be asleep.
From then on, she would wake up at night to check on him, and sure enough, almost every night he would leave the house while she was asleep, and no one knew where he went.
She hesitated for a long time at home, wondering whether she should talk about this with Jiang Nanyuan. After all, he was her husband, but she was afraid that her husband would do something to hurt everyone.
It would be fine if it was just a misunderstanding, but what if it was true?
So, after hesitating for three days, she decided to tell this matter, but she was still hesitating in her heart about who to tell?
I originally wanted to talk to Xu and Lin Zhaoye, but after thinking about it carefully, I decided to talk to Jiang Nanyuan.
After hearing what Jiang Yamin said, Jiang Nanyuan and Xiao Yuchen thought about it and decided to see what he was going to do in the evening.
"Aunt, we already know about this. Don't tell anyone else for now. We'll go and take a look tonight."
The matter has not been concluded yet, and Jiang Nanyuan thinks it is better not to tell too many people about it. If they misunderstand him, it will hurt their relationship.
Jiang Yamin also understood what Jiang Nanyuan meant. She nodded to indicate that she understood.
"Okay, I won't tell you about this."
After saying that, Jiang Yamin had nothing else to do, so she left without staying here any longer.
After she left, Jiang Nanyuan didn't stay with Xiao Yuchen for long. They had agreed to go with him to see the place in the evening, so Jiang Nanyuan went home first. It was time for the two children at home to drink milk.
After returning home, I fed the two children, ate something myself, and then went back to the room to sleep with the two children for a while.
I was going out at night, so I took this opportunity to take a nap. When I woke up, it was almost dusk outside. Jiang Nanyuan fed the two children, played with them for a while, and then told the two babies that I had to go out at night and asked them to stay with their grandmother.
The two children were babbling, but no one knew what they were saying.
However, Jiang Nanyuan could see that they were not unhappy, and they kept giggling at Jiang Nanyuan's teasing.
At night, Jiang Nanyuan brought the two children to Lin Zhixue's room and told her that he would be going out in the evening, so he asked her to help take care of the two children.
Lin Zhixue actually likes taking care of the two children. Besides, the two children are very easy to take care of. Basically, there is no need to worry about them. They only cry when they wet their pants.
The rest of the time I basically just tease them and have fun.
She originally wanted to ask Jiang Nanyuan what she was doing out so late at night, but seeing that Jiang Nanyuan didn't seem to want to say anything, she didn't ask. If she wanted to ask, she would have told her on her own initiative.
"Then be careful at night. If you come back late at night, let the two children sleep with me."
Jiang Nanyuan nodded. This was what she meant. She didn't know when she would be back at night. If she brought the two children back, it would wake up Lin Zhixue. It would be better to bring the children back early tomorrow morning.
"Okay, mother, you can rest early tonight and don't have to wait for me."
Lin Zhixue nodded. Jiang Nanyuan heard footsteps outside and saw that it was Xiao Yuchen coming.
She kissed the two children on the cheek, then walked out and went to stay at Xiao Yuchen's house first.
Not long after midnight, Jiang Nanyuan and Xiao Yuchen saw a secret guard coming over and telling them that Lin Jingrui had come out of the house. The two nodded and followed in the direction Lin Jingrui left. They met up with the secret guard who was staring at him and learned that the place Lin Jingrui went to was where Jiang Wenjin had discovered the demonic object last time.
When Jiang Nanyuan and Xiao Yuchen saw him go in, they didn't rush in, but waited outside for a while. Their hearts sank. Could it really be him?
Did he betray everyone?
The two waited outside for a long time. They saw Lin Jingrui go in for about a quarter of an hour and then walk out. Jiang Nanyuan observed him carefully and did not find any demonic energy on him.
At first, Jiang Nanyuan thought that he came here to use those objects to cultivate demonic energy, but from the last time he appeared until now, she didn't find anything wrong with him.
There is no poison in his body, and there is no residual evil energy in his body. Apart from his ability to capture souls, there is nothing wrong with him.
Oh right, soul-stealing!!!
Could it be that he is using soul-controlling magic to control people?
