"No."
He finally took the trouble to speak. His deep brows looked down at her face as she approached him, his eyes moving slightly, but he didn't make any move to push her away.
"I've always been curious..."
Seeing that he showed no sign of resistance, she moved closer, sniffing his neck, Adam's apple, and chest... Then she slowly said:
"What kind of incense do you always use, sir? Whenever I get close to you and smell this soothing aroma, I always feel much more relaxed and at ease... It's very comfortable, I like it very much..."
"No." He repeated.
But compared to the previous sentence, he was obviously embarrassed this time. His eyes quickly moved to the side, and the tip of his ear exposed to her was slightly red.
"No? Nothing?" She tilted her head to look at him with a smile in her eyes, and her beautiful eyes flashed with tiny lights.
"Could it be that this is the young master's body fragrance?"
She smiled widely, with the corners of her mouth raised.
This time he understood, and then he stretched out his hand to push her away in annoyance, turned away from her, and said coldly:
"It's time for bed."
"But I just woke up..."
She pushed it open, turned around and faced the pavilion again, stretched her arms lazily, sat back on the bench, leaned on the railing, rested her head on her arms, looked at the vast night sky with a comfortable smile.
Her eyes reflected the bright moonlight and the stars in the sky, and when combined with her smile, they were even brighter and more charming than the stars.
She stretched out her tone and said lazily:
"Sir, go to sleep first. I'll watch for a while..."
“…”
He looked up at her, wrapped in a heavy cloak and leaning against the railing, and said expressionlessly:
"It was a cold night."
"Well, thank you for your concern, I'll be back in a minute."
"what ever."
After he finished speaking, he took a few steps, then suddenly stopped, and then continued walking as if nothing had happened, gradually disappearing from sight.
After seeing him leave, Shen Wuyou said quietly:
"Come out."
As soon as she finished speaking, a faint red light flashed across the courtyard, and then a familiar figure appeared in front of her and said respectfully to her:
"elder sister."
Poppy was obviously a person with a lot of ideas, but she was very stubborn about the title. She either called him "benefactor" or "sister", which made Shen Wuyou helpless, so she just went along with her.
Shen Wuyou didn't care about her name anymore, but just asked softly:
"Have you been to the imperial mausoleum?"
"Yes." Poppy said, "There are many restrictions there, and they are quite serious. Poppy didn't dare to rush in rashly, so he just observed from the outside for a while."
"Has anyone been in there?"
"Several distinguished individuals have been there, carrying a small object about the size of a palm. It's golden in color and has a fiery aura. It's likely the key to unlocking the forbidden area."
The key...
Shen Wu lowered his eyes and tapped the railing lightly with his fingers, wondering what he was thinking about.
Then she asked:
"What about the prison?"
"Five days ago, those who were distracted by Qi Qingyun and killed each other were all death row prisoners. Poppy deceived a few prison guards and learned from them that they suddenly received a notice that day, saying that they were taking a collective rest, so they did not appear in the prison. They only returned to the prison after the death row prisoners died and dealt with the bodies."
"I see..."
Shen Wuyou's eyes dimmed slightly, and he finally figured out the key.
She asked, how did Long Chujun know that she was locked in the dark room? It turned out that he knew everything Qi Qingyun did from the beginning.
In other words, she had already discovered the clues when Qi Qingyun made a deal with the evil spirit, but she did not care about anything, did not ask anything, and just pretended to know nothing. While secretly monitoring Qi Qingyun's every move, she was planning a big game as if nothing had happened.
How heavily guarded is the imperial mausoleum? Those buried there are all heirs of the Phoenix bloodline, bearing the divine fire, fearless of it, and of immense value. How could an evil spirit capable of possessing only one human being be able to breach it?
The evil spirit thought it had grasped human nature and controlled those so-called puppets to do things, but it didn't realize that they were people specially planted by Long Chujun. So as it wished, the imperial tomb was destroyed, the corpses were stolen, the corpse puppets were refined, and hidden in the tunnel.
Then Qi Qingyun was imprisoned, and she interrogated him in the identity of the Crown Princess. She took the opportunity to "inadvertently" expose the conversation between her and Long Aojun, allowing the evil spirit hidden in Qi Qingyun's body to know the news of the destruction of the corpse puppet in the first time.
Then the evil spirit complacently carried out the next step of his plan - spreading rumors and causing chaos in Phoenix Power.
At the same time, the identity of Shen Wuyou was exposed in an attempt to cause a scramble among the people. Then, those with ulterior motives would use the rumors about the empress to criticize Huang Quan, and then give the world enough reasons to punish Huang Quan, send troops to Huang Quan, and use Huang Quan to cause chaos in the world.
By then, wars will rage everywhere, power struggles will erupt, conspiracies and schemes will be unleashed, the land will be littered with bones, rivers of blood will flow, and the people will suffer greatly, suffering from the pain of displacement and grumbling...
In this way, the evil thoughts in the world will expand infinitely, and the food of the evil spirits will also expand infinitely.
By then, the situation in the world would be out of control.
However, the evil spirit never imagined that all its self-proclaimed plans were all seen by Long Chujun. Under her step-by-step seduction and planning, everything it did became the wedding dress for her to control the Phoenix Power and prosper the Phoenix Power!
