Shen Heng asked about the funeral in the palace.
"It's the Sixth Lady who has passed away. She was the Crown Prince's full sister." Xie Jian learned the situation this morning when he met with the Prince's eunuch. "Nine days ago, the Sixth Lady suddenly fell ill and became a vegetative state. Many people assumed she had died then."
"Sixth Master?" Nanny Feng was a little surprised: "It's actually the Sixth Master?"
"Mammy also thought that the Sixth Lord had died at that time." After Shen Heng finished speaking, her forehead suddenly felt a cramp-like pain. The figure of a little girl flashed through her mind, but it was gone in a flash. No matter how hard she tried to think about it, she couldn't remember it.
Xie Jian noticed and hurried forward to rub her head: "Is your head hurting again?"
"It's okay, it just hurt a little." Chen Heng asked curiously, "Mammy, why did you think the Sixth Lord was dead at that time?" This was the Lord, not an ordinary citizen.
"At that time, many people said that the Sixth Lord died of poisoning and was buried without a funeral." It was nothing to talk about what happened nine months ago. Nanny Feng thought of another thing and glanced at Madam Xia next to her without saying anything.
"Poisoned?" Xie Jian's eyebrows moved, as if he was stiff?
It was late at night, and after talking for a while, they went back to their rooms.
After watching Lady Xia leave the corridor, Nanny Feng called out to Chen Heng.
"Madam, is there anything else?"
"Madam Shen, you once told me about the art of Zhuyou. I suddenly remembered that when the Sixth Lord was in trouble, my elder sister in the palace once said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wanted to go to Yushan to find a witch doctor. That witch doctor had a unique art called Zhuyou, which can weave dreams and awaken people who are in a state of stupor."
"Yushan? Yushan is to the north of Nanming." Xie Jian's eyes darkened.
Nanny Feng was thinking about the death of the eldest brother of the Xie family and felt sorry for Madam Xia, so she didn't mention this matter in front of her.
It's late at night.
After Chen Heng tidied the quilt, she saw Xie Jian looking at the paper with her story written on it. There were many more annotations on it than that day, and the story of the Six Lords was also written on it. Finally, he circled her and the Six Lords.
"What is the relationship between me and the Six Lords?" Shen Heng asked curiously.
"There are nine witch doctors around the prince. If the Sixth Lord could be awakened by these nine witch doctors, she should have appeared in front of people long ago. She didn't appear, and no one even talked about her. This means she has failed." Xie Jian speculated that even if there was a little movement, there would be news in the palace.
Shen Heng nodded.
Xie Jian held his wife's hand. "The Zhuyou technique can weave dreams. I created a dream for you, brother, and you've been trapped in it forever. But it can't awaken the Six Lords. You've emerged from the Zhuyou technique. If I were the crown prince, I'd be very curious about how you got out."
Chen Heng was stunned for a moment. "You mean to say that the prince is very likely trying to find a way out of the Zhuyou technique from me? So, I was actually kidnapped by them while chatting with Madam Cai for a long time? They cast the Zhuyou technique on me again?"
Xie Jian lowered his eyes, a flash of hatred passed through his eyes, and the other hand on the table clenched into a fist. He was powerless to stop his elder brother's death, and he was powerless to stop his wife from being kidnapped twice. He was still too weak.
He is now a fourth-rank official. If he wants to climb higher, he can only reach the position of Lord Qin. However, the real power center of the three provinces and six ministries is not so easy to enter.
In addition, the prince went to Yushan to ask for a witch doctor nine days ago. It would take at least half a day to get from the imperial capital to Yushan, and at the slowest it would take seven or eight months. They passed by Nanming Baliting, and his mother happened to be on the mountain at that time.
