All of Xiao Chenyan's beautiful memories of family affection were burned in the fire in the East Palace.
As for close friends, the memory only revolves around two people.
It was Xie Shu who was gradually drifting away from him.
It was Yun Zheng who died on the battlefield.
Unlike Xie Shu's introverted personality, Yun Zheng and he were more like-minded.
The Yun Zheng in my memory is passionate, proud, and has a broad mind. He is a passionate young man like the scorching sun, who is open-minded and cheerful.
When Xiao Chenyan saw him, it was like seeing the scorching sun.
That young man can always illuminate the people around him and drive away the haze and filth.
It is his great fortune to be friends with Yun Zheng.
And the girl in front of him, she pretended to be the person he loved and wore the face of his best friend.
Each and every one of them hit his sore spot.
Xiao Chenyan looked at Asuna, a smile slowly appeared on his handsome face, but there was no warmth in his eyes.
"Long time no see."
He was saying this to Yun Zheng's face.
And Asuna obviously misunderstood what he meant.
Prince Hui was standing nearby, already sweating profusely, and was hesitating about which side to stand on.
No matter whether she is his nephew or his nephew's wife, he can't afford to offend her, right?
Prince Hui felt uncomfortable, wanted to cry, and was scared. He missed his princess. If his virtuous wife was here, she would definitely be able to give him guidance.
The three people outside the hall had different thoughts.
There were also three people standing in the Tianshou Hall.
The old emperor looked at the situation outside the palace through the half-open door, frowning as if thinking about something.
The man in the Nuo mask stood in the corner, saying nothing.
The other figure seemed to be doing nothing. The woman was looking at the caisson in the hall with interest, as if she was looking at something new.
The old emperor turned around and bowed to the woman respectfully, "Your Majesty, Master Wu Peng's condition seems to be a little off. I don't know what his condition is."
Wu Zhen smiled when he heard this, but did not turn around:
"Of course not. The one who just came in was your fourth son, not Wu Peng."
The old emperor was shocked: "But Master Wu Peng has already taken over my body, how could my fourth son still be conscious?"
"Wu Peng's aura is still on him. As for why his consciousness is still there, I guess someone helped him."
Wu Zhen said this nonchalantly, but the old emperor was sweating profusely. He thought of something and looked coldly at the man in the Nuo mask.
He failed to detect anything abnormal with Lord Wu Peng, but since the other party was Wu Peng's creation, how could he not sense it?
Wu Zhen also looked at the other party with a smile: "Yun Zheng, what do you think?"
Yun Zheng's eyes under the mask were still dead silent. Hearing this, he only said calmly, "I sensed something was wrong when I came here last time."
The old emperor was shocked and angry: "Why didn't you tell me if you noticed it last time? Your Majesty, please forgive me. I didn't handle this matter properly."
Wu Zhen waved her hand, "It's okay." She tilted her head and smiled, "The other party wants to lure the snake out of its hole and use Wu Peng as bait."
The old emperor was terrified: "Then our plan is..."
Planning?
Wu Zhen had a sneer in his eyes. The Wu clan's plans were basically all in vain. How could there be any more conspiracies?
The princess of the underworld was right beside the king, and all the clues were enough for her to follow the clues and deduce the truth.
The king is hiding in Cangming's soul. Even if Xiao Chenyan does not have the memory of the gods now, even if he has changed from a god to a human, his brain has not changed. How could he not feel the clues?
The reason why the other side is still "acting" is simply to see what other tricks the witch clan has.
Or perhaps, the impostor Asuna did play a certain role after all.
Wu Zhen looked at Yun Zheng with his bright smile unchanged.
No, to be precise, this person should be the one who takes the role.
"The plan remains unchanged. Let Asuna go to Prince Yan's mansion to attend the ceremony."
The old emperor agreed, but he couldn't help but worry, "Can this woman still play a role?"
"Whether it works or not, we'll know once we get it to our door."
Wu Zhen walked up to Yun Zheng and asked with a smile, "Do you want to find the real soul of your sister?"
Yun Zheng's numb eyes gradually came into focus, and he stared at Wu Zhen intently.
Wu Zhen raised his hand and took off his mask. Looking at the face that looked exactly like Asuna's, his smile became even brighter.
"I have already told you how to find your sister's soul."
"But now the situation has changed, and we have to change the procedure."
Wu Zhen raised her hand and scratched Yun Zheng's forehead with her nails. A piece of broken bone appeared in Wu Zhen's hand, and she inserted the broken bone into Yun Zheng's forehead bit by bit.
Yun Zheng's body kept shaking. Even though he was just a puppet, the pain he felt at this moment was like having his tendons pulled out and his skin peeled off.
Wu Zhen's eyes were dim: "I will give you new power. You just need to find the Seven-Aperture Heart, and you can find your sister."
"You must stay hidden until you become one with your new power."
As Wu Zhen's voice fell, Yun Zheng disappeared.
The old emperor looked at Wu Zhen with anticipation. He also coveted the power bestowed by the venerable leader of the Wu clan.
Wu Zhen's gaze fell back on him, with a hint of mockery in his eyes.
There was a strong smell of mold on the body of this human emperor. No one knew what he had eaten, but the smell of rotten mold was emanating from the depths of his soul.
The funny thing is that this guy has no awareness at all, and his internal organs are probably already moldy.
Wu Zhen thought with a smile, raised his finger, and a drop of black blood fell to the ground.
"Although you have not been able to do your job well, you have also worked hard to take care of my king's body."
"This is the blood and essence given to you by Master Wu Xian."
"Thank you, Master Wuxian. Thank you, Your Excellency!"
The old emperor knelt forward like a dog, lay on the ground, and licked the drop of blood.
Wu Zhen looked down at the emperor with contempt. Suddenly, she raised her eyes and looked at the caisson above her head.
Wu Zhen curled his lips and his figure suddenly disappeared.
And at the moment she disappeared, a shadow that had been attached to the caisson at some point cracked, and an eyeball rolled and looked down.
The image of the old emperor lying on the ground and licking greedily like a pig or a dog appeared in the eye's field of vision.
Outside the palace.
Xiao Chenyan listened absentmindedly to the counterfeit's crying.
There is a golden glow in the depths of the lowered eyes.
When the shadow cat possessed Prince Hui and entered the Tianshou Hall, he secretly separated a ball of shadow and hid it in the caisson.
When he arrived, he felt several gazes falling on him in Tianshou Hall, one of which belonged to the old emperor.
And the other sight was stranger.
Xiao Chenyan tried to open the Shadow Eye in the Tianshou Hall to spy, but was blocked by a strange barrier.
Until just now, the power of the barrier disappeared.
When Shadow's eyes opened, what he saw was the old emperor's servile and ridiculous behavior.
Already ran?
Xiao Chenyan looked thoughtful and glanced at Prince Hui.
Prince Hui felt inexplicably nervous when he was stared at. What are you looking at me for?
Asuna also noticed Xiao Chenyan's absent-mindedness and felt wronged: "Brother Yantai."
She stepped forward, grabbed Xiao Chenyan's sleeve and tugged at it.
"I will be the only one in this world from now on. I am afraid. I don't want to go back to the Marquis' Mansion for fear of being reminded of the past. Can I stay at your palace for a while?"
Xiao Chenyan stared at her hands without saying a word.
At this time, Wang Xixi went into Tianshou Hall and came out in a hurry. He forced a smile and said:
"Your Highness, please forgive me. It is time for His Majesty to rest, so I will not see you anymore."
"He has issued an order to let Princess Qingwu stay in Prince Yan's Mansion for a while. Once the Zhenguo Marquis' Mansion is renovated, it won't be too late to let the princess return to the Marquis' Mansion."
"In addition, His Majesty was displeased when he heard that Princess Yan was disrespectful to the Princess, and ordered His Highness to go back and discipline her."
Asuna was delighted when she heard this.
The next moment, a force lifted her up and the sleeve she was holding was gone.
The man's cold voice sounded: "I can't control it."
Wang Xiaoxiao almost thought he had heard it wrong, and looked up in surprise: "Huh?"
Asuna also looked puzzled.
Xiao Chenyan stared at the Tianshou Palace: "The prince said that the prince can't control the princess, and doesn't want to control her."
