On the other side, Lu Linghui reported what Xiao Yi Xiu had discovered, and said in a deep voice, "Xing'er went to the makeup shop to meet up with some people, and in the end, we went to a courtyard in the capital. Jin Shu saw Princess Mu there, and was knocked unconscious before she loaded the carriage up. I'm afraid it was because we were so tight that he didn't have time to deal with us. "
"Let's talk about this later."
No matter how suspicious Gu Qing was, it had nothing to do with his current priorities. Xiao Yixiu wasn't in the mood to listen to any news, not even the news from the inner city that the plague had started to improve.
Lu Linghui said, "Is Your Highness concerned about it? Has it not occurred to you that this matter might also be related to the disappearance of Your Highness's wife?" Xing'er and Rui Zhu were secretly monitoring Zhou Zhen. If something happened to them, it might have something to do with Zhou Zhen. The abnormality of the women's families might be the reason for Princess Hua-Yang's disappearance … "
Xiao Yi Xiu raised his dark eyes and said hoarsely, "You think that I don't know? After the wangfei disappeared, Zhou Zhen brought her servant, Little Chan, Xing'er, and the others out of the palace, but she also did not return. "
Lu Linghui was surprised, "They're all missing?"
Xiao Yixiu didn't say anything. In fact, it wasn't just them, even Zhou Qianxi had disappeared.
Gu Qingli left after receiving Helian Yu's note of respect.
She would never see him again in private, and the hatred in her heart was greater than anything else, but Bentley asked her to meet with him and explain everything that had happened that day.
In fact, the person who moved her in the end was still the one who sent her the memorial service.
That person looked like an ordinary person, and he even had a rough and aged look on his face. He was dressed in plain clothes, saying that people would believe him if he said that he was a martial artist selling his skills, but the moment he opened his hands, he was greeted with a golden, glittering kowtowing note, on which Helian Yu's handwritten words disappeared one by one after Gu Qingli finished reading them, leaving no trace behind.
In Gu Qing Li's previous life, he had known many different kinds of tricks, such as spring onion juice, white vinegar, and starch, all of which had the ability to make words invisible. Even with her experience, she was still unable to differentiate what kind of trick this' worshipping 'was.
After all, stealth was easy. Controlling time to such an extent wasn't something a human could do.
She stared at the man suspiciously, only to see him smile. He opened the wine gourd he carried with him and drank two gulps.
"If these jugglers want to make me take them seriously, he might have misjudged them."
Gu Qingli coldly glanced at the note, thinking it was nothing more than the simple tricks Xiao Yiyan had used to coax her.
The man raised his eyebrows and smiled, "This is not a trick, this is an illusion. This illusion came from the heart and is linked with your thoughts, Consort Wang. For example, just now the handwriting disappeared because you hated the person who wrote it and didn't want to see anything related to him again. "
Gu Qingli still looked at him coldly. Even if he was a psychologist, there was no way he could move her.
"But if the wangfei wants to know the truth, she has to see His Highness the crown prince." The man took out an oval bronze mirror from his bosom and placed it in front of her. "Princess, please have a look."
Gu Qing Li's expression changed drastically as he inadvertently glanced in the mirror.
The mirror reflected the scene of her lying flat on the bed in the Cheng Yang Inn, covered with a brocade bed. Helian Yu sat on the edge of her bed and sighed softly.
Gu Qingli felt as if she had fallen into an icehouse. She watched quietly for a while, but the scene only lingered for a few seconds.
In the end, she was no ordinary woman. She finally calmed down and coldly looked at the other party, "You want to bluff this wangfei with a mirror? What is Prince Helian's intention? "
That person smiled. "The crown prince is only inviting Princess Hua-Yang out to show his sincerity by choosing the largest restaurant in the capital, Drunken Immortal Tavern. That's where your Dongyuan area is …"
"Chengyang Inn is also our place in the East Abyss." Gu Qingli tried to keep her cool.
In fact, she was already moved by the sight of it. The truth was too important to her, and she was willing to take another risk, even going alone.
"The crown prince has promised not to bring any of the northern Chu guards to the restaurant."
Gu Qingli wanted to say that Helian Yu's promise was like a fart to her right now, but he still tacitly agreed to this meeting.
After leaving the Royal Mansion, that person introduced himself to her. He was the Imperial Advisor of the Northern Chu, someone who was bestowed the surname Helian because he could foresee the future. The Northern Chu called him Helian Divine Technique.
However, the wealth and glory that this foresight brought him revealed its drawbacks after a long time. Because he had revealed his secret, many accidents had happened to him. In the end, his family was ruined and he was left with only his reputation and money.
After the tragic death of his most beloved son, he had fled from the Northern Chu Palace in grief. The Northern Chu's request to stay and his pursuit could not move him. He swore to seal the Three Lives Wheel, never to make any predictions for anyone else.
Afterwards, he had fled to the borders of the Empire of Dongyuan and came to the capital. He had always thought that he could live his life in peace, but who would have thought that he would encounter Helian Yu again in this life?
At this point, Gu Qingli was a little skeptical, "You even ignored the threat and enticement of the Northern Chu Country's ruler, what kind of work does Helian Yu want you to do for him?"
Helian divine smile, "His Highness the Crown Prince is different from the Emperor. He does not ask me to foresee everything and plan for him, to face political enemies, to forcefully change his fate. He is willing to give me the most precious thing in his life in exchange for my help for three years."
"His most precious thing? What is that? "
"After I help him, I'll take it away from him. Before that, he doesn't know what it was, nor do I know."
"You don't know either?" Gu Qingli found it even harder to believe.
The smile on Helian Shou's face faded as he said solemnly, "Many people have been muddled their entire lives. They might not even know what is truly important to them. For example, the Crown Prince thinks that if his life is not the most important thing, then it is the throne, but he thinks that I can't take it away. I feel that since what he is asking for is not to go against the heavens and change fate, then it is not against my original intentions. Ordinary illusions like these, with some directions to the future, will not cause too strong of a backlash. "
"So it turns out that your karma was not only to reveal your heaven-defying secret, but also to change fate."
"Of course, I'll …" Helian divine ability suddenly stopped and swept her with a dull gaze. "This matter has nothing to do with the wangfei."
"I am very curious. What is the most important thing you said about Crown Prince Helian useful to you? "Suppose what you want is his lifespan, can it continue yours?"
Helian Haotian shook his head. "No. I want something important to him to use to refine my Fates. It will be able to resurrect the person I want to revive."
Gu Qingli suddenly widened her eyes. "You …" Are you joking? "
He only glanced at her for a moment, then laughed. "Imperial Concubine, just take it as a joke. It was more convenient for you to go to the restaurant earlier."
"What was that mirror you used just now? Why did you stop at that scene? "
