On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Mr. Mo stood up and took off the mailbox from the crow's paw.

Unfolding the creed, there are a few simple lines on it, but the tone between the lines is extremely arrogant.

Mr. Mo remained silent and threw the note into the incense burner. There was a burst of smoke and the note turned into ashes.

The crow glanced at the incense burner before spreading its wings and flying away.

Mr. Mo looked at the black afterimage and snorted softly.

He didn't like either this crow or the person from the Spiritual Palace on the top of the mountain. He had an evil aura. If he didn't really have some tricks, he wouldn't cooperate with that person.

Something really thought it could control him and ride on his head.

From the beginning to the end, Mr. Mo never thought of the messenger who was sent to deliver the letter, as if he was destined to never come back from the beginning.

After squinting his eyes slightly and thinking for a long time, he shouted outside: "Here comes someone."

A man in black came in, lowered his head and said, "Mr."

"Where have the Ninth Princess's team gone?"

"Mr. Hui, we set off six days ago. According to the itinerary, we can arrive at the border after the Ghost Festival."

Dacheng was not far away. Although the princess's honor guard was not as fast as the march, it was still light and simple. Moreover, she should know that she was on a mission and would not be delayed for too long on the road.

Mr. Mo thought for a moment: "Give me the order and send someone to the border to pay close attention to her movements. Once her team is discovered, try to get in touch with her."

"Yes."

The man in black hesitated for a moment, then Mr. Mo glanced over. The man in black felt cold all over and quickly lowered his head: "It is the New Year's Day to visit graves. Some villages have discovered that corpses have been stolen. The princess is coming soon. I don't know if... Put this matter on hold?"

Mr. Mo held the lid of the incense burner in his hand and looked at the flickering unburned incense ashes inside: "No need, everything is as usual."

"Yes." The man in black did not dare to stay any longer and immediately turned around and exited.

After a long time, Mr. Mo sneered softly and said to himself: "What kind of princess, how can you ruin my affairs because of her?"

……

Governor Cao hadn't returned yet from investigating matters in the granary and several villages, but he left without knowing that he had come to Huo Changhe with gifts to pay New Year's greetings.

The minds of other officials suddenly came to life. Before, it could be said that they were waiting and watching. After all, King Zhennan was exiled as a guilty person, and they all knew that he and Shen Huaixin were at odds. Now they finally had a chance. Shen Huaixin was not sure what to do. Torture him.

But who would have thought that the King of Zhennan does not look like he was exiled, but came here to settle down and enjoy his happiness.

Not to mention hard labor, the tribesmen were not tortured, and they did not even have to eat or live in a pinch.

Moreover, the necessary procedures have been taken care of, and the money that should be paid has been paid, so there is no way to make any mistakes.

Now, as soon as the governor comes to visit, this is a signal. Needless to say, those who are on the governor's team will immediately come to visit.

Those who originally pretended to be stupid and neutral began to favor the side of the governor, just ordinary people. Shen Huaixin had military power in his hands, and the governor could not overpower them no matter what he did, but the person who came was Huo Changhe!

Although he currently has no military power and no seal, he himself is better than the seal.

Therefore, Governor Cao, who was in a small village outside the city, did not know that one of his actions had unintentionally broken the balance of Youcheng, and the balance of power began to favor him because of Huo Changhe's joining.

The eldest lady originally planned to go to someone else's house to pay New Year's greetings. Needless to say, at least show her face.

Unexpectedly, starting from that afternoon, there was an endless stream of people coming to the door. She and Yan Ruyu didn't have to go out, so they met everyone at home.

Yan Ruyu is not good at this, but fortunately, she has the eldest lady, so she doesn't have to say anything. She can just sit beside him. With her identity displayed there and her aura so overwhelming, no one dares to say more that shouldn't be said.

In the past few days, she had been visiting with the eldest lady during the day, and she had been drawing patterns in the room at night.

What was painted was the two stone beasts and the runes on the iron chains.

Although she didn't know him, she remembered a lot of it at the time, and after sketching it out, she could get a 70% to 80% rough estimate.

It was just getting dark that day and Huo Changhe hadn't come back yet. Yan Ruyu heard Linlang talking to the abbot in the courtyard.

Linlang does her duty conscientiously and always asks questions about anyone who comes.

Yan Ruyu put down her pen and opened the window: "Linlang, let him come in."

The abbot and Linlang entered the house one after another.

The abbot looked happy. Yan Ruyu had not seen him in the past few days. Either he was busy or the abbot was not here.

"What? What's the happy event?"

The abbot said mysteriously: "I found some clues. If nothing happens, we will soon be able to find the people Cui Chong is following."

This is really good news. The two people Li Jingyao caught are still locked up. They have low status. If they are relied on alone to identify Shen Huaixin, it will not be enough.

"I came to you to ask for something," the abbot said with a sly look in his eyes.

"What do you want?" When Yan Ruyu saw his look, she knew it wasn't something good.

The abbot touched his nose: "Does it smell... fragrant?"

He spoke vaguely and did not specify the specific fragrance, but Yan Ruyu understood it from his expression.

If it was an ordinary fragrance, the abbot would ask Huo Zhongmao for it. After all, Huo Zhongmao had a much wider variety than she had here.

"Not yet. I need to add something to the kind you want. I'll get it tonight and you can pick it up early tomorrow morning."

The abbot nodded and agreed: "Okay, no problem."

With his goal in mind, he glanced at Yan Ruyu's desk and saw the stone beast.

"Huh? This thing..."

Yan Ruyu's heart brightened: "Have you seen it?"

The abbot nodded: "It looks familiar, as if I've seen it before somewhere."

"Don't worry, think about it slowly."

The abbot thought for a while, then slapped his forehead with his hand: "Ah, I remembered it! Isn't this the picture painted on the great scholar's cloth?"

Yan Ruyu really didn't pay attention to it. Da Ru usually wore common clothes, which never seemed to fit him. No matter the clothes or shoes, they were two sizes too big, and they were always in sloppy shape.

"you sure?"

The abbot's tone was affirmative: "I'm sure, it's definitely not wrong. The first time we met, he was carrying his rag bag on his back. It's like a treasure. It's hanging in his room now."

Yan Ruyu wanted to go take a look immediately, but she still held back: "Let's make sure first."

The abbot said without hesitation: "This is easy to handle. I'll go and steal it for you. You can take a look."

This is a method, although it is not elegant.

"Okay, don't alarm others."

"What you said, did you call it a thief if it alarmed you?"

The abbot turned to leave and saw Linlang standing aside, looking at him with contempt.

"You are indeed not a serious monk."

Abbot: "..."

Linlang also took a look at the painting case and said surprisingly: "Master, you don't need to ask the great scholar, I already know what this is."

Yan Ruyu was surprised: "You know?"

Linlang nodded: "This thing is called a soul-suppressing beast. It usually appears in pairs. The small one is as big as a paperweight, and the big one..."

She stretched out her arms: "It has to be this big."

"The more evil the thing is to be suppressed, the larger the soul-suppressing beast will be."
