Ji Bingyan: "Master, what should we do now?"
Shen Zhao: "I need you to borrow something for me."
"What is that?"
"The paper used for the 'Landscape and Social Map' is Xuelang paper."
"A specialty of the Northern Regions?"
Shen Zhao nodded: "Don't worry, I have a relationship with the Northern Region Empress Mu Qiuyao. If you tell her about my situation, she will definitely agree."
"But the border between the Northern Region and the Central Region is more than 800,000 miles apart. With my current cultivation level, it would take me at least two months to travel there on a spirit beast. However, the Empress's wedding will only last for less than seven days. I'm afraid."
"Take this with you; the instructions are on the paper."
Shen Zhao then handed her a feather from a golden-winged roc.
"The wings of the Kunpeng can travel 250,000 li in a day, so a round trip should take about seven days. Even if it takes a day or two later, it won't matter."
"My lord, where did you get such a divine artifact?"
"Don't ask any more questions. Take this and get going. Leave the rest to me."
"Well, my lord, you must be careful. Things haven't been peaceful in Yanhuang City lately."
"clear."
Shen Zhao didn't waste any more words. After giving his instructions, he was about to leave the teahouse.
"My lord!"
Ji Bingyan suddenly called out to Shen Zhao.
"Is there anything else?" Shen Zhao asked in return.
Ji Bingyan hesitated for a moment, then said, "My lord, there is something I'm not sure if I should say right now."
It refers to the tragic events of the Great Yin royal family in the previous life, including Prince Huai's rebellion and the death of the retired emperor.
And what about the Empress Dowager's humiliation and hanging herself, and even Gu Jingyan's mysterious drowning? Do you, my lord, still remember these events?
Shen Zhao frowned: "Didn't we find out from multiple investigations that Gu Jingyan's death was an accident, and that all the evidence in the other three cases points to Lin Feng?"
Ji Bingyan shook her head: "My lord, we may have all been deceived."
"What do you mean?" Shen Zhao asked, puzzled.
Ji Bingyan: "I don't know the specifics either. After being reborn, it seems that some memories were erased, but one thing is certain."
These things were definitely not something Lin Feng could have accomplished on his own at the time. After your death, I continued to investigate further, and I only remember…”
At this point, she glanced cautiously at Shen Zhao.
"Tell me, what do you remember?" Shen Zhao urged.
Ji Bingyan: "I only remember that this matter seems to be related to the Empress of Dayin, but I really can't recall the specifics."
Shen Zhao frowned.
The news came as a bolt from the blue.
"That's impossible. Yu Xiyan has no reason to harm her own family."
Although Shen Zhao had long since severed ties with Yu Xiyan, based on his nine lifetimes of experience with her, she was kind to everyone except him. How could she possibly do such a thing?
Besides, no one in the royal family could threaten her throne, so there was really no reason for her to do this.
Since I can't figure it out for now, I might as well put it aside for the time being. After all, it's been a lifetime, so how can I possibly look for clues from my past life?
"Let's put this matter aside for now and deal with the immediate issues first."
After saying this, Shen Zhao left the restaurant.
Next, he needed to find Song Yu; he had to repay this favor.
After taking only a few steps, he saw a gray-robed Taoist priest who looked like a beggar standing at the corner of the alley, setting up a fortune-telling stall.
Shen Zhao ignored him and walked right past him.
"Sir, your face is dark and your gait is unsteady. You may be facing a bloody disaster soon."
Shen Zhao stopped, took a deep breath, looked around, and after finding no one else, walked straight to the stall and sat down.
"Then tell me, how do you plan to resolve this bloody calamity that's befalling me?"
