"Well done." Shang Ruoyi put the letter on the table, pointed to a few words on it and said, "'We have invited the dragon from across the river, looking back at the green mountain outside the building' means that they have found a powerful helper, and they can just wait quietly. 'The stumbling block breaks into the mountain gate, the sleeping dragon comes out of the mountain, and the world is divided' means to stir up the martial arts world, and then invite the counselor to come out of the mountain to share the world with them."
Shang Ruoyi's eyes flickered slightly. These words were thought up casually by them in their spare time before. They all borrowed some allusions from the country. The person who could connect all these together must be someone she knew before.
"So that's what you mean." Yunqi whispered, "If it's as you said, then who are these powerful helpers and counselors?"
Shang Ruoyi said nothing, just stared at the letter in a daze.
Several familiar faces flashed through her mind. She looked at the handwriting on the wall and kept wondering whose handwriting it was.
But all of them were signed pens, and they mostly transmitted signals through electronic devices, rarely writing.
It was impossible to tell at all for a moment.
"Then how did you get hurt?"
Yunqi shook his head: "I don't know when I was exposed. After intercepting this letter, I didn't know what it meant, so I prepared to leave and come back to ask you to make the decision. But not long after I left, I realized that someone was following me secretly. I thought they were some blind robbers, but I didn't expect them to be a group of people with high martial arts skills. Their body movements were strange. In an instant, their figures were still several meters away, and in the blink of an eye, they would appear in front of me. I was poisoned and had no way to fight back. If it weren't for the grenade you gave me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to come back alive."
Shang Ruoyi was shocked when she heard this.
Isn’t that kind of martial art the earth escape technique?
She remembered that the skill used by the guards around the Western Region Emperor was earth escape.
These things are like a mess. Shang Ruoyi feels as if there are layers of fog in front of her eyes, but she feels that she is getting closer and closer to the truth.
At least she now knew that the person involved in this incident might be her former teammate.
She squeezed the letter in her hand and whispered, "You should have a good rest first."
After saying this, she turned and left.
After a while, it was noon. Jun Zegan found her and told her that he was going to the palace.
"Why are you entering the palace at this time?"
"The emperor has been ill and unconscious for only half a day, and the people in the court are in a state of uncertainty. The prince summoned me to the palace to discuss countermeasures."
Prince?
Why did he let his brother enter the palace for no reason?
Although she didn't know the prince well, from the two encounters she had with him, she knew that the prince was definitely not a good person. He wished that the Emperor of the Western Regions would pass away soon so that he could ascend the throne and take over all the power.
How could he possibly ask his brother to help him with advice?
"I'll go with you." Shang Ruoyi whispered, "I'm proficient in medicine, maybe I can help you."
Jun Zegan nodded when he heard this. It was true. After she looked at the wound on his head, the pain was gone.
Shang Ruoyi turned to the guards beside her and said, "You two follow me into the palace, and the rest of you must guard the palace. Understand?"
"Yes, Master."
As soon as they arrived at the palace gate, several guards came forward and said, "Sir, Princess, please take off your weapons."
Jun Zegan held the long sword in his hand and whispered, "When the late emperor was in power, he allowed our Chengwang Mansion to bring weapons into the palace. Why is it that it is not allowed now?"
"My dear, this is an order from the Crown Prince, and I dare not disobey it!" The guard said with some embarrassment: "If we don't collect the weapons, and the Crown Prince blames us, our lives will be in danger!"
Jun Ze Ganjiang handed him the long sword, and the guards smiled and said, "Please step forward, I want to search you."
Jun Zegan frowned slightly, but did not say anything to stop him.
After the inspection, Jun Zegan was ready to take Shang Ruoyi into the palace. Before he took a step, he heard the guard say, "Wait a minute, my son. The princess hasn't searched her yet!"
Upon hearing this, Jun Zegan slapped Shang Ruoyi in the face without waiting for her to make a move: "You bastard! You actually wanted to search my sister's body, are you tired of living?"
After saying this, You felt unsatisfied and slapped him again, knocking all the teeth out of his mouth.
The guard fell to the ground, his head buzzing and the world spinning.
Shang Ruoyi walked forward and sneered, "Are you the prince's confidant?"
The guards behind him saw this and stepped forward and said cautiously, "My lord, we are all guards of the Crown Prince's Mansion."
"I've always said that if you want to search my body, don't even mention your claws. Even if it's your master's claws, I'll chop them off if I want to."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and followed Jun Zegan into the palace.
At this time, the number of patrolling guards in the palace was twice as many as before. The two of them came to the emperor's bedroom under the guidance of their eunuch. At this time, Concubine Xiao was sitting beside the bed, looking at the Western Region Emperor with closed eyes and sunken cheeks on the bed with tears in her eyes. The prince was reviewing memorials in the outer room.
This was the scene that Shang Ruoyi and the others saw when they walked in.
"Your Highness."
“No need to be polite.” Jun Yunting saw Shang Ruoyi following behind him and whispered, “Why did the little princess come along?”
"I am grateful for the Queen Mother's teachings. I heard that my brother had entered the palace, so I followed him." Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not welcome you?"
"How could that be?" He smiled and said, "Since you are going to see the Queen Mother, how about I order someone to take you to Ningshou Palace?"
"I heard that the emperor is ill. I know some medical skills and can take a look at him." She looked into the inner room and found that Concubine Xiao's eyes were slightly red. It seemed that she had been crying. She couldn't help but find it funny. What was there to cry about? Isn't she with some heavenly master? The old emperor's death was not to her liking?
Hearing her voice, Concubine Xiao narrowed her eyes and walked out slowly: "You are here."
"My Lady Concubine."
"I heard you say you know medicine?"
"It's just shallow."
"The imperial physician in the palace diagnosed that it was caused by a heart attack due to impatience. He prescribed a lot of prescriptions, but none of them worked. If you know anything about it, come and take a look!"
Hearing her say this, the prince could not refute and nodded, "Okay."
Shang Ruoyi walked into the inner room, and after taking the patient's pulse, she withdrew her hand and said a little embarrassedly, "The results of your pulse diagnosis are exactly the same as those of the imperial doctors. It is indeed caused by impatience."
Hearing her say this, Concubine Xiao's expression became even softer than before.
Laughing secretly in my heart. It seems that I was overly suspicious. Her medical skills are just so-so and not as brilliant as He Jinghe said.
