next day
The entire imperial city was extremely lively.
Because... Prince Ding's Mansion exploded last night!
Following the incident at the Xuanyuan Emperor's Mausoleum, the Imperial Palace was destroyed, and now the Ding Prince's Mansion has been blown up.
In the dead of night, when almost all the people in the city were asleep, they heard a huge "bang" sound, which was so deafening that it almost woke everyone up.
Someone went to check in the direction of the sound, only to see that the huge Dingwang Mansion had exploded, and the mansion was split into two halves and turned into ruins.
"It's only been a short time, and the royal family has been plagued by accidents one after another. Could it be..."
"Shh, don't say these things carelessly."
"Also...something happened at Prince Ding's mansion. It must be that Prince Ding did something wrong and someone is looking for revenge."
"What could Prince Ding do wrong? Could it be that he no longer wants that wild boar demon?"
"Or did he hurt the boar demon's feelings, so the boar demon brought his brothers and sisters to seek revenge in the middle of the night?"
"It should be possible."
Various voices were heard among the people. Such a big thing had happened, and Xuanyuan Che was still unconscious after returning from Baihua Villa, so this matter naturally reached the ears of Emperor Yongding.
Emperor Yongding's face turned green.
I wish I could kill this idiot!!
He was asked to give a gift to Liu Xun, but instead of delivering the gift properly, he made a huge joke and even almost killed himself.
and…
Emperor Yongding looked at the yellow talisman in his hand with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
"This yellow talisman is a thunder-inducing talisman. Prince Ding was injured because he was knocked unconscious by the thunder."
Venerable Mu said, "Looking across the entire Qingyou Nation, the only family that can use talismans to attract thunder is the Gu family."
Gu Family--
One of the four great families, good at using talismans.
Not only can it attack, but it can also defend.
and…
The Gu family is the only family that has no communication with their royal family.
Among the four great families, the Situ family obeyed his orders and worked for him; the Hua family was also respectful to him; Bai Yun of the Bai family was arrogant but also had some connections with him; the Gu family...
Not to mention in private, even on the surface, the Gu family did not have any communication with the royal family.
The Gu family would never appear at any palace banquet, and would never accept any gifts from the royal family. They had no contact with the royal family or their members, and did not give the royal family any chance to make friends with them.
but…
"Now that the Gu family has injured that idiot, we can use this as an excuse."
Emperor Yongding pondered for a moment before ordering the general to enter the palace and send him to the Gu family to handle the matter.
-
Bai Yanyan searched Prince Ding's mansion thoroughly but did not find Qingchuan's loyalty.
Then she left.
As for why Prince Ding's Mansion exploded.
Of course it was Qingchuan who did it.
Qingchuan hated people in the royal family, and Chiyu kept telling him how annoying Xuanyuan Che was, so Qingchuan blew up Prince Ding's Mansion and then took Chiyu back to Shendao.
Bai Yanyan came back and slept for a while. She got up very early the next morning to make the elixir.
Uncle said that when Dad comes back, he will let her go to Wuyun College to study.
Once she leaves Qingyou Country, there won’t be so many people protecting her. As she is just a small fry, she needs to refine some medicine to protect herself.
"I also got a lot of medicinal materials from the Lingyue Clan and the Holy Spirit Island. I can refine two unique elixirs and some poisons. Well, I'll get some medicine for the prince and Situ Yan..."
Bai Yanyan made plans and then concentrated on refining medicine in seclusion.
In the afternoon, Gu Yunzhou came once and brought lunch.
Seeing that she was refining the elixir, he set up two more layers of barriers in the yard and then left. He did not return home, but went to the Holy Spirit Island again to look for the spiritual herbs that Bai Yanyan had dug before.
Gu Family--
Someone is coming from the palace.
It was said that a member of the Gu family had injured Prince Ding at Baihua Villa.
Gu Changtian came back at night.
When he came back and heard about this, he frowned, "Baihua Villa? Prince Ding Xuanyuan Che? My Gu family members didn't go to Baihua Villa, so how could they hurt Xuanyuan Che?"
"It's true that no one from the Gu family went to Baihua Villa, but... this yellow talisman does belong to the Gu family."
The person who spoke was the elder of the Gu family, Gu Changtian’s cousin Gu Changzong. He handed the yellow talisman to Gu Changtian.
Gu Changtian held up the yellow talisman and looked at it.
This yellow talisman looks a little familiar.
"Fuck, something happened!" Gu Changtian exclaimed. This yellow talisman belongs to the ancestor! It would be strange if it didn't look familiar!
"Although it is indeed our fault this time, you don't have to panic, Patriarch."
Gu Changzong said: "Although it is true that the one who injured Prince Ding was a member of the Gu family, the attitude of the royal family is not bad. They just hope that we can give them an explanation.
Over the years, our Gu family has been in the imperial city, and the Xuanyuan royal family has been very caring towards us. Moreover, the Gu family is no longer the Gu family of the past. Perhaps we can also take this opportunity to bow our heads to the royal family..."
"No, I need to go to Baihua Villa!"
Gu Changtian put away the yellow talisman and hurried outside. His old face was filled with worry as he muttered, "With this old ancestor's personality, he probably wouldn't talk back if someone scolded him, but he actually attacked Xuanyuan Che. He must have been bullied!"
"How dare you bully my ancestor? Do you think I have no one in my Gu family?!"
Gu Changzong didn't hear what Gu Changtian said. His brows were furrowed, looking a little unhappy.
He always felt that Gu Changtian was not suitable for the position. He had no ambition, and he would not allow the children of the Gu family to compete, nor would he allow the Gu family to expand outward. He even refused to accept the goodwill of the Xuanyuan royal family.
No matter how powerful a noble family is, it can never be more powerful than the royal family. Even if they do not obey the royal family's orders, they should maintain friendly relations on the surface. But he did not do that. This would only destroy the Gu family.
Well, this is a good opportunity...
Gu Changzong made a decision, but Gu Changtian didn't know about it. He went to Baihua Villa overnight to find out what was going on and learned that... Xuanyuan Che went to Baihua Villa to find Miss Bai.
He went to the Bai family again.
I was thinking of asking Miss Bai.
But there is a barrier in that yard.
He was flying on a large yellow talisman and had no idea that there was a barrier in the Bai family's yard. He stumbled into the barrier and then fell to the ground with a bang.
Bai Yanyan was still refining the elixir. When she heard the noise, she curiously went out to take a look and saw two thighs dangling...
Oh, no, it should be an old man with his head stuck in the soil upside down and his whole body standing upside down.
Bai Yanyan pulled him up like a scallion. Seeing that familiar face, she frowned, "You're not the one looking for your ancestor's grandmother. Why are you here in my yard?"
"What ancestor's grandmother? That's my ancestor's daughter-in-law!"
Gu Changtian climbed up and headed straight for the barrier. He lay on it like a gecko and sniffed: "This barrier, this familiar smell, this is the smell of the ancestor~~"
