Xiao Shuangbao put the Ghost King away.
Emperor Chengxuan also sent people to clean the hall.
"We've gained a lot today. We caught dozens of evil spirits, and Concubine Hui also confessed her guilt. My only regret is that Bai Luowan escaped."
Frost Treasure's soft, fair face flashed with joy and thought, "The three-tailed fox she trained is so powerful."
This made Xiao Shuangbao more or less envious.
However, those dozens of evil spirits did help restore a lot of her ancient copper coins.
The ancient copper coins are no longer as rusty and broken as they were at the beginning. Instead, they look brand new and have a luster.
Qin Cheng noticed this.
At first, he couldn't understand why Xiao Shuangbao was learning various mysterious arts from the dead Yun Lingjun in his dream.
But later he discovered that it was most likely related to this ancient bronze coin.
When the ancient copper coin is repaired, some hidden spell contained within it will be triggered.
This ancient bronze coin was left to Xiao Shuangbao by Yun Lingjun.
Perhaps, this is its usefulness.
Whenever Xiao Shuangbao catches an evil ghost to repair an ancient copper coin, a spell will be unlocked to help Xiao Shuangbao learn the mysterious art.
It seems that Yun Lingjun had foreseen his own death and had prepared for it long ago.
I just don't know how she died in this life.
Previously, Bai Luowan caused chaos in the Qianqing Palace, causing part of the palace to collapse.
Fortunately, the Yangxin Palace has been repaired.
Therefore, Xiao Shuangbao moved back to the Yangxin Palace with Emperor Chengxuan.
As soon as they moved back, Concubine Hui took the second prince to kneel in the courtyard of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. I was bewitched by Concubine Luo, no, by that Bai Luowan! She used evil magic on me. Otherwise, even if I had a hundred times the courage, I would not dare to harm the little princess!"
Concubine Hui was crying like a pear blossom in the rain, looking weak. She pulled the Second Prince and kowtowed repeatedly, "Your Majesty, please forgive me! I really didn't mean to harm the little princess!"
But Emperor Cheng Xuan didn't believe what she said at all.
"Concubine Hui, do you think I'm a fool?"
Emperor Cheng Xuan said in a cold tone, "If Bai Luowan really has this ability and can easily use evil magic to bewitch others, then if she wants to kill Shuangbao and me, she only needs to use this evil magic on Shuangbao and the people around me. Wouldn't that give her plenty of opportunities to kill me and Shuangbao?
"Why did she have to treat you like this and then kill me herself?
"You said she cast a spell on you. Do you really think I don't know? This is just an excuse after your crime was exposed!"
His words were merciless.
This time, Bai Luowan used Concubine Hui to hold Xiao Shuangbao back, intending to kill him, the emperor of Dongqi.
If it weren't for Yunru who betrayed Bai Luowan and tipped off Xiao Shuangbao, and if Xiao Shuangbao himself hadn't figured out that something was wrong and taken timely precautions, he might have been dead by now!
Emperor Cheng Xuan felt very angry when he thought that his life was saved by Su Liao with his own life, but Bai Luowan wanted Su Liao to die in vain.
He is alive now, and as the emperor of Dongqi, the responsibilities on his shoulders include not only his own, but also Su Liao's.
Whoever wants him dead wants to make Su Liao's sacrifice a joke!
He would never allow it!
"Someone come!"
At this time, Emperor Chengxuan directly ordered, "Concubine Hui colluded with spies and attempted to murder me and Princess Lingfu. This crime is unforgivable! According to the law..."
When Concubine Hui heard this, her body completely weakened, as if she had lost all her energy and spirit.
It's over.
She thought to herself, this time it’s really over!
She's dead!
But the next moment.
Emperor Cheng Xuan had not yet uttered the word "behead".
Suddenly, a loud shout was heard outside the gate of the Yangxin Palace.
"The Queen Mother has arrived!"
This sudden sound interrupted Emperor Chengxuan's order.
Concubine Hui's eyes lit up, and she straightened up in an instant and looked towards the palace gate!
Very good!
Her savior is here!
It’s God’s will that she won’t die!
At this time, Emperor Chengxuan frowned.
But he quickly lifted his coat and walked over to greet them.
Empress Dowager Jiang sat in the sedan chair, supporting her forehead with one hand, and slowly entered the Yangxin Palace.
Soon, the sedan chair landed on the ground.
"Why did the Queen Mother return to the palace without giving me any news? I should have made preparations early and gone to greet her."
Emperor Cheng Xuan took the initiative to step forward and spoke in a caring tone.
"Emperor, are you blaming me for coming back at the wrong time?"
Queen Mother Jiang looked tired. Upon hearing this, she raised her eyelids and glanced at Emperor Chengxuan.
Emperor Chengxuan felt somewhat embarrassed when his true feelings were revealed.
"What are you talking about, Queen Mother? I just care about you." He said immediately.
"If the Emperor hadn't sent me over a dozen letters asking me to help find the Imperial Preceptor, I wouldn't have come back so suddenly."
Queen Mother Jiang smiled, but there was not much smile in her eyes.
When Emperor Chengxuan heard her mention the imperial teacher, his expression changed again.
"Has the Queen Mother found the Imperial Master?" he asked hurriedly.
"try to find……"
Queen Mother Jiang had just spoken.
Behind him, a figure suddenly descended from the sky in a hurry, and passed by Empress Dowager Jiang and Emperor Chengxuan like a gust of wind, blowing their robes into the air.
The next moment.
"Oh my dear little baby!"
The old man, wearing a black robe with gold thread, with silver hair and wrinkles on his face, hugged little Shuangbao, who was looking at Queen Mother Jiang curiously, and spoke very affectionate words as soon as he opened his mouth.
Xiao Shuangbao was very upset.
"Daddy! Help!"
She used her two little hands to push the wrinkled old man's face away from her own face, and rejection was written all over her body.
When Emperor Chengxuan saw this, he immediately stepped forward and tried to snatch the baby back.
However, the old man held little Shuangbao in his arms and flew away.
The next moment, he was standing on a tree.
“Woo woo woo!”
Little Shuangbao had never flown that high before he was frightened. "Daddy, help me! This old man is so scary! He's going to steal children!"
Emperor Chengxuan panicked when he heard Xiao Shuangbao crying.
He stood below with a helpless look on his face, looking at the old man who was smiling happily, and said, "Master, Shuangbao is young and timid, so don't scare her!"
"Your Majesty, what are you saying? Shuangbao is my beloved grand-disciple! I love her so much, how could I possibly scare her?"
The old man on the tree said this and began to coax little Shuangbao, "Oh, Shuangbao, don't cry! I am your mother's master, your dear master!"
When Xiao Shuangbao heard this, her tearful face was stunned.
She carefully observed the old man in front of her.
After a while, she sniffed and said timidly in her baby voice, "You, you are the one that mother was talking about. You don't like to wash your feet at night, you like to pick your feet after eating, and when something happens, you let mother take the lead and you run away. You are the irresponsible master-in-law, right?"
