Wenshansu cried. "Since I can't take revenge on my family, how can I have the face to go back and see my old mother?"

"Don't you think, Father, that Grandmother is the happiest thing to see you alive?" Xiao Ruyue retorted, "Grandmother's age is already high, so how much more time is left for the heavens to decide? If the enemy that my father painstakingly seeks is never found, will you continue to pursue him? What if Grandmother didn't wait for that day? Do you really have the heart to let your granny and your own son walk so close to each other? "

The Wenshansu remained silent.

Xiao Ruyue stood up, "I will investigate the matter regarding brother and the person that father has been pursuing all this while. I believe my father knows exactly what is going on with my grandmother's body. As for whether or not you want to return to the Xiao Mansion, or whether or not you want to adopt a grandmother, please let your father decide for himself. "

She bowed towards the Wenshansu, then, without looking at him anymore, she walked to Yuwen He, "Your Majesty, let's return to the palace. I want to eat porridge cooked in green. "

"Alright, I'll get someone to bring Lu Yi back to the Phoenix Palace first."

After exiting the Courtyard's door, right before entering the carriage, Xiao Ruyue suddenly stopped and pulled Yuwen He.

"What's wrong?"

"Thank you."

Yuwen He's long black eyes flashed with a smile, "Why are you suddenly thanking me?"

"Thank you for helping me with another matter. "It seems like I'm almost done." Xiao Ruyue smiled gently.

Yuwen He's hand stopped in mid-air, and then landed on her hair, gently rubbing it. We still have a long road ahead of us. If you don't care, then what am I? "Let's go back. If we're late, the porridge might become cold."

Xiao Ruyue did not refute him and took the initiative to hold Yuwen He's hand.

At this moment within the palace.

A young eunuch's corpse had been dug out from under the flower bed in the imperial garden. He must have been dead for quite some time, and his clothes were somewhat tattered, but his corpse looked like a corpse that had just died.

The sun was setting in the west, and the sun was setting in the west.

Chong Yue immediately sealed off the place, preventing the others from approaching, and also sealed off the news.

Lu Yi was so scared that her face turned white, she hid behind Chong Yue, "This, this person is wrong, this corpse, how could it be like this?"

"Don't be anxious, the Imperial Physician Fang is already on the way here. I presume that he has even more experience in dealing with difficult and strange things. " Chong Yue protected her in his arms as he comforted her with a gentle voice.

Chong Yue, however, turned a blind eye towards his. As he embraced her with one hand, his gaze landed on Cai Yin, who was not far away, "That young lady should be around the same age as you. If there's no need in the future, it's better to not interact too much with her."

"What?"

"Nothing."

Although she didn't press further, her heart was beating like a drum.

Cai Yin had always been at the Phoenix Palace, and had been together for several months. Other than the Empress telling her not to mention anything important in front of Cai Yin, Cai Yin had always been treating the Phoenix Palace well.

When Chong Yue mentioned it, she felt a little awkward in her heart.

It felt weird.

However, she couldn't tell what was wrong.

After feeling frightened and afraid, she recalled carefully. In the past few days, Cai Yin seemed to have been possessed as he brought her around the palace with him.

In the past, Cai Yin wouldn't even invite the Phoenix Palace very often, right? She also looked timid, but why did it seem like she had suddenly become a different person?

Imperial Physician Fang hurried over. When he saw him, it was as if he had seen his savior. "Imperial Physician Fang, you're finally here!"

A certain imperial physician was immediately flattered. But at the same time, he was fiercely glared at by the Vice Commander of the Feathered Guard and quietly pulled his arm away from green girl's hands.

"Commander Chu, please light the fire."

When Xiao Ruyue and Yuwen He returned to the palace, the sky had already completely darkened.

Instead, it was Fang Weiyong who hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, esteemed wangfei, we found the missing young eunuch in the imperial garden. Chong Yue invited Imperial Physician Fang to go and examine the corpse."

Yuwen He and Xiao Ruyue looked at each other and reached an agreement.

There would be coroners for autopsies if they died. How could they let Imperial Physician Fang go?

There must be something fishy about this.

It was already late, so Yuwen He called for dinner. In about the time it takes to boil a cup of tea, Imperial Physician Fang arrived with Chong Yue, Lu Yi and Cai Yin.

Imperial Physician Fang handed over the details of the autopsy. After thinking for a while, he only said one sentence, "Human attributed abnormal death, but the corpse's appearance is completely new, the time of death cannot be inferred. It can only be estimated based on the degree of rotting on the clothes on the corpse."

The hall was silent for a moment.

Xiao Ruyue was looking at the autopsy list. There were no obvious wounds on the body, so she guessed that there was no struggle during her lifetime. Everything was normal, but after dying for a month, her face was still the same as before. This was the biggest abnormality.

Yuwen He and Xiao Ruyue exchanged a glance, telling the others to retreat, leaving Imperial Physician Fang behind.

Before leaving, Lu Yi was still conflicted. Xiao Ruyue instructed with a smile, "Tonight, I want to eat porridge. Go and help prepare the kitchen."

Lu Yi was startled, but because it was the order of her mistress, she did not dare to hesitate.

After that, His Majesty chatted with the Empress and the Imperial Physician Fang in the room for a long time, but no one knew exactly what they said. All they knew was that when the Imperial Physician Fang left, his brows relaxed slightly, and his frown deepened.

There were still too many things in this world that he did not know.

Empress Dowager said that the little eunuch might very well be a victim of Feng Yuting's failure to complete the trial with the Live Gu, causing him to feel a chill on his back.

Unfathomable.

Terrifying.

That night, while the moon was still dark and the wind was blowing, the empress pulled the emperor away from the crowd and secretly watched the long-lost eunuch.

Chong Yue and the Imperial Physician Fang were also with them, Chong Yue said, "When we were carrying it out, just in case, I had the people who made a move cover their hands with cloth, I was afraid that there would be poison on the corpse."

Imperial Physician Fang sighed, "I've already checked the surface of my body, there's no poison. Even after digging for so long, there doesn't seem to be much of a change. "

When the white cloth reached her abdomen, was not allowed to continue watching. She grumpily looked at him and did not persist anymore as she turned to look at Imperial Physician Fang.

"You can have the meal."

Imperial Physician Fang swallowed his saliva. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Earlier, he was afraid that there would be too many people around to examine the situation in detail, but now that the empress had given him such an opportunity, his heart was filled with gratitude.

Xiao Ruyue suddenly felt that this person was worthy of being called the disciple of He Tang Jingzhi who came from the same sect.

Imperial Physician Fang opened the box he brought with him, but it was not a medicine box, but a coroner's box with all kinds of blades inside.

Of course, His Majesty had pulled it apart. "It's better if you don't watch such a scene."

She obediently answered yes and went out with Yuwen He. Only Chong Yue was left inside to help.

But not long later, Chong Yue escaped. "Madame is sick!"

Chong Yue was also someone who had seen a big scene before, to be able to scare him to such an extent, it was definitely not a small matter.

"Don't go." Hearing that, Xiao Ruyue wanted to walk in, but was stopped by Yuwen He, "I'll go."

She hesitated, then nodded.

Just as Yuwen He was walking in, the Imperial Physician Fang hurriedly rushed out, "Don't go in! That place is too scary! "

"What the hell is going on?" Even Imperial Physician Fang had such a reaction, this was abnormal.

Imperial Physician Fang took a deep breath, and said after recovering, "That person looked fine on the surface, but in reality, his entire body was filled with bugs. Madame is disgusted. "

While speaking, a terrible stench floated out, causing Xiao Ruyue to frown. She took out two bottles of medicinal powder from her sleeves and handed it over to Yuwen He, "Don't let those bugs come out."

Imperial Physician Fang was startled, he then understood what Xiao Ruyue meant, and immediately took a bottle of medicinal powder from Yuwen He's hands, and went in with him.

"Come in."

After a while, Yuwen He's voice came out.

Chong Yue protected Xiao Ruyue as he walked in, and could hear "Zi zi" sounds the whole time.

Although the room was not big, for the sake of making it convenient for Imperial Physician Fang to examine the corpse, he lit up several lamps, lighting up the whole room. Under the bright candlelight, the ground full of worms could be clearly seen, gradually turning into pus within the medicinal powder.

As for the eunuch who looked like a new person, he had already caved in.

Xiao Ruyue's face became ugly, "That woman is not fit to be called human!"

She had obviously prepared herself mentally, but seeing this scene, she still couldn't bear it.

Yuwen He embraced her and gently patted her back, "I'm fine."

Xiao Ruyue's movements stopped, and she pulled at his hand. There was a bit of green on his hand, "Those worms touched me? Or was it bitten? "

"It's fine. I'll be fine after I apply some medicine." Yuwen He wanted to retract his hand, but Xiao Ruyue held it even tighter, "You don't even know what these are, nor do you want them."

The cold jade box in her sleeve constantly trembled.

She had no choice but to let go of Yuwen He's hand and pull out the cold jade box. The moment she opened it, the Jade Silkworm Gu would jump out and into Yuwen He's hands.

"Hiss!"

When it found the wound, it almost stabbed its head in. Yuwen He almost flung the bug out from the wound due to the pain, but after a while, the green dot on his palm disappeared.

A trace of green appeared on the Jade Silkworm Gu's head.

Xiao Ruyue clenched her teeth, and said: "This corpse must be burnt immediately!"

Feng Yuting's corpse was not buried to hide the truth, but it was buried under that person's corpse to serve as the furnace to nurture the parasite!

Yuwen He glanced at Chong Yue: "As esteemed wangfei says."

"Yes sir!"

Chong Yue quickly gathered a few guards and carried the corpse out of the palace. He set up a fire, poured some oil on it and set it on fire.

The green flames pulsed, eerie and strange. From time to time, crackling sounds could be heard, as well as the smell of burnt meat.

In the darkness of the night, under the illumination of the flames, Yuwen He's face was flickering with uncertainty.

"It's time for one of them to end."
