The ghost doctor said, "That's the evil magic of East Island, even more evil than my medicine. I heard that people who are caught in the puppetry will eventually become puppets that manipulate others day after day and year after year.
For example, I now doubt whether your father is being controlled by puppetry or drugs."
Bei Mingxuan: "What's the obvious difference?"
"If it's controlled by drugs, the person being controlled will definitely not remember what happened afterwards," the ghost doctor explained. "But if it's puppetry, there will be traces of it in their subconscious."
"No." Chang'an looked at the ghost doctor in confusion. "For example, the Miyou Powder you just mentioned can make people forget things instantly, but they can also remember them clearly afterwards."
"Pay attention." The Ghost Doctor glanced at Chang'an with dissatisfaction, "After taking Miyou Powder, people can remember it clearly again. It is clear.
However, puppetry leaves a trace deep in the mind, as unclear as seeing flowers in the fog.
So they are fundamentally different.
People who have been controlled by puppetry for a long time, or in other words, those who have been controlled multiple times, will actively follow the instructions given by the puppeteer.
"How long is long-term? How many times is many times?" Bei Mingxuan looked straight at the ghost doctor.
"There's no specific limit." The Ghost Doctor said with regret, "I've researched this puppetry technique before, but the results weren't satisfactory. It's highly variable. It depends on the skill of the caster and the will of the person receiving the command."
"..." Bei Mingxuan was silent and glanced at the ghost doctor.
I felt contempt in my heart. Is this what you mean by not understanding puppetry?
With a look, the Ghost Doctor lowered his head and pretended to know nothing.
I was so happy in my heart, what can you do? Aren’t you still being bullied by my little girl from Fusheng Sect?
Chang'an noticed the little subtleties between the ghost doctor and Bei Mingxuan, and after thinking about it, he immediately understood what was going on.
I am absolutely speechless about these two people.
He calmly began to change the subject.
She looked at Bei Mingxuan, thought for a moment, and asked, "Are you suspecting that your father is being controlled by puppetry? Do you have any evidence?"
"No." Bei Mingxuan frowned, "I'm just guessing."
"Bei Mingxuan, have you ever thought about this," Chang'an asked, "regardless of whether Father is being controlled by drugs or Dongdao's puppetry, what is the purpose of those who control the Emperor?"
Bei Mingxuan had just thought about this question, but after thinking about it, the only answer he came up with was that the emperor killed the person who could help him detoxify.
"Let's not talk about other things for now, but the emperor killed the person who could cure the Ice Buddha Lotus poison in your body." Chang'an confirmed, "If we continue to infer this, the person behind this is targeting you, Bei Mingxuan."
"At that time, he was just a child. What's so difficult to deal with?" The ghost doctor said nonchalantly, "As if he were worth a lot of money."
"It is indeed a child, but this child is a prince, a prince who can inherit the throne. Moreover, before Concubine Tong was confined, he was a very favored prince." Chang'an looked at Bei Mingxuan, "In this case, it is not difficult to guess that the person behind this may be in the palace."
"The goal is the throne." Bei Mingxuan took a deep breath, "In other words, it's for a certain prince, or in other words, for a certain prince."
"They controlled the current emperor so that a certain prince could ascend to the throne." Chang'an was certain, but he hesitated. "But, if it was really so that a prince could ascend to the throne, then why not just let the emperor die? Wouldn't that be more convenient?"
"Unless the prince hasn't grown up yet."
Bei Mingxuan and Chang'an spoke at the same time.
The ghost doctor who was listening to their conversation gave them a look of disdain, "As expected, birds of a feather flock together. A prince who hasn't grown up yet? Why don't you talk about the prince who hasn't even been born yet?"
"..." Chang'an felt embarrassed, "Yes, now all the princes are old enough to take charge."
The first people Bei Mingxuan suspected were the Fourth Prince Bei Ming Ye Hui and the First Prince. "Forget it, it's getting late. Go to bed early. These things can't be figured out overnight."
That night.
Chang'an and Bei Mingxuan lay on the couch but couldn't fall asleep.
"Bei Mingxuan." Chang An turned sideways and looked at the person next to him, "I want to go check on Lin Yanran."
"If it's for me, then it's totally unnecessary." Bei Mingxuan said seriously, "We don't know her strength. Until things are clear, it's best for you to have less contact with either Lin Yanran or Lin Shangde."
"Are you worried about me?" Chang'an's eyebrows curved.
"Yes! I'm worried about you." Bei Mingxuan pinched Chang'an's nose, "I don't want you to take any risks."
"No venture, no gain."
"We don't want Tiger." Bei Mingxuan smiled. "Since they were able to use my father to kill the person who could detoxify me back then, now that they know I'm fine, they'll definitely try again. Then we'll know who it is."
"That's right." Chang'an lay flat on his back, looking up at himself. "But, back then, you and mother were the most favored, but now you are the one the emperor dislikes."
"Perhaps, you should think about it from a different perspective." Bei Mingxuan raised the corner of his lips and looked at Chang'an, "However, the most important thing now is to create a human being!"
"?"
In an instant, Chang'an was controlled by Bei Mingxuan and became a lamb to be slaughtered.
The room was filled with ear-reddening gasps and heavy breathing.
Outside the house, Li, the head steward, was mumbling with regret, "I forgot, I forgot, I didn't give the princess the pregnancy medicine."
The second day.
Chang'an received the emperor's edict early in the morning.
She, Gu Chang'an, severed ties with the Gu family and changed her surname to her husband's.
When Mr. Gu learned about this, he was so angry that he couldn't breathe.
"Is it serious?" There was no trace of worry in Chang'an's eyes, as if that person was just an insignificant person.
"I heard he was so angry that he vomited blood." Bei Mingxuan said, "How about you take the ghost doctor with you to see him? Although you are no longer related to the Gu family, I know you are worried about the old general."
"I'm not going." Chang'an said, "Many causes and effects were predetermined from the very beginning. I planted the seeds back then, and now their lives and deaths have nothing to do with me. This is the result."
"Miss." Bai Lu reported, "Bai Tangzhen requests an audience."
"Bai Tangzhen?" Bei Mingxuan was unfamiliar with this name.
"Let her in," Chang'an explained. "She's one of the women we've arranged to stay in the mansion. Have you seen them?"
"Yes, it's time to let them leave the house." Bei Mingxuan asked, "Do you want to do it, or should I?"
At this time, Bai Lu had already walked in with his men.
