Gu Xueting did not make any comments about Cui Huo's experience, but just talked about it as a bystander.
Shen Yizhi felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this. Although it was the Zhao family that caused Li Jianniang to end up in such a situation, Cui Huo could not say that he had no responsibility at all.
The two chatted for a while, and Shen Yizhi said "Happy Mid-Autumn Festival" to Gu Xueting and stopped sending any more videos.
This is the first time he has received such a straightforward holiday blessing.
Gu Xueting was a little reluctant and clicked on the last video she sent. He listened to the short sentence several times.
Putting away the shadow stone, he walked to the window and looked at the clear moon in the sky.
Thinking that she, thousands of miles away, was enjoying the bright moon with him, a faint joy arose in his heart.
Of course, if possible, he would prefer to stay with her at this moment, preferably holding her in his arms and bathing in the moonlight together.
Thinking of this, he couldn't wait to be reunited with her and Qing Bao's family.
Just, there is one more thing that needs to be resolved.
“Call Gen Yi.”
Gen Yi is the leader of Gen Wei and the head of the intelligence department. He is usually responsible for coordinating intelligence messages from his subordinates from various places, and screening and recording them.
Not long after, Gen Yi came.
“Your Majesty.”
"How was the investigation of the incident three years ago?" Gu Xueting turned around.
Three years ago, he suffered from a demonic poison attack and completely lost his mind. He met a woman on the way. At that time, for some reason, he had an unprecedented desire for her blood. Without thinking, he threw her to the ground and bit her. Her neck, and later he uncontrollably did things to her that he even despised.
When he woke up, the woman was no longer there, and he did not remember her face at all, only that her blood was particularly sweet.
He picked up a jade pendant that she had dropped.
After returning, he ordered his subordinates to find the woman at all costs, but she seemed to have evaporated out of thin air, without a trace.
At that time, his intelligence network was not as complete as it is now. After searching for a long time without success, he withdrew most of his people, leaving only a few people still exploring the area.
Just when he thought that the woman was a mountain spirit who might never be found, she appeared on her own initiative.
Pei Yuan, Pei Qi's girl who had been raised in a villa since childhood, when she saw the jade pendant hanging on his waist, she said that she was the owner of the jade pendant and took the initiative to mention what happened three years ago.
The place and time are both right.
She is the woman he offended three years ago.
The person was found. Gu Xueting couldn't tell whether he was disappointed or feeling something else. He had originally made up his mind to take responsibility for the woman, of course, provided she was willing.
However, if this person was Pei Yuan, he could clearly feel the resistance in his heart.
Although she tried to hide it, the greed and intention in her eyes could not be hidden from his eyes. It was no different from all the women who were afraid of him but deliberately approached him.
So, once again, he did something that was contrary to his own principles.
He proposed three conditions to make up for what happened three years ago.
Pei Yuan agreed.
The first condition is that she must recognize him as her adopted brother.
He knew what she was planning, it was just to use his name to act.
He agreed, but also sent someone to be by her side to act as a supervisor. Although this was not what he wanted, it was true that he made a mistake in the first place and must bear the consequences of his mistake.
The second thing is that she wants to become a master of the Imperial Academy. He personally went to the National Preceptor, Master Yunkong.
Zhenren Yunkong has only one condition - the dragon inner elixir.
He is in a critical period for promotion. If he can have the help of Jiaolong inner elixir, his promotion will be easier. As for recruiting one more disciple, it's not a big deal.
This is also the reason why he went to Qingmang Mountain before.
Unexpectedly, this trip to Qingmang Mountain would give him a big surprise.
He met the girl with the scar on her face who still attracted all his attention, and the little guy who called him daddy as soon as they met.
When you love someone, you must want to take over everything about her. This is how he feels about Zhizhi, and this emotion is getting stronger day by day.
So, he had very complicated feelings towards Qing Bao. On the one hand, he couldn't help but pamper and pamper him as if he were his own child. However, when he thought that he was the child of Zhi Zhi and another man, it was impossible for him not to feel uneasy at all.
Until the master said that Qing Bao looked very much like him, as if they were carved from the same mold.
He couldn't help but hope, was it possible that Qing Bao was indeed his child?
Zhizhi is the woman he was looking for three years ago, not Pei Yuan.
As soon as this thought came out, it spread crazily in my mind like weeds and could no longer be suppressed.
So, he once again sent people to investigate the incident three years ago. This time, he must get to the bottom of it!
As soon as Gen knew how concerned the prince was about this matter, he had been intensifying his investigation these days, but it was just that time had passed and the most important thing was that there were too few clues.
Of course, what subordinates have to do is to do the things assigned by their masters well, rather than emphasize difficulties and shirk responsibility.
"My subordinates have made some progress. This is some information that has been investigated. Please take a look."
Genyi handed over a piece of information.
Gu Xueting finished sweeping quickly.
Information shows that Pei Yuan has been following a monk around him all year round, and he is willing to be driven by her and help her do many shameful things. Moreover, the relationship between this monk and Pei Yuan is still somewhat unclear.
The monk's cultivation level is not high, he is only at the second level of Qi Refining, but behind him there is a behemoth involved - the Immortal Medicine Sect.
The Immortal Medicine Sect, as the name suggests, is a sect of immortality whose purpose is to save lives and heal the wounded. The members of the sect have one thing in common, the monks all major in medicine. Of course, it also attracts ordinary people with superb medical skills.
Whenever a plague disaster occurs in a place, the traces of immortal doctors can be seen. Over time, people in the world have become more and more respectful to the Immortal Medicine Sect.
In Tianyuan Kingdom, the Immortal Medicine Sect has a transcendent status.
To avoid alerting others, Gen Yi did not let anyone continue the investigation.
It is not for nothing that Gu Xueting collects so much information every year, and he knows far more than ordinary people imagine. Take the Immortal Medical Sect as an example. In the eyes of the world, it is a sect that helps people in distress. However, in his opinion, there may be a shocking truth hidden behind the Immortal Medical Sect's rescue.
This truth was inferred by him based on various information. He hoped it was not true.
Gu Xueting balled up the piece of paper recording the information in his hand, and the powder fell down.
"Keep staring at him." The "him" refers to the monk next to Pei Yuan.
It should be a nod.
“In addition, since you left, something happened at the palace banquet.”
