Abandoning concubines and raising children to seize the throne

Gongsun Yunfeng's face turned pale with fright, and her fingers began to tremble.

"What forbidden technique was lost?"

"Xingyin Tianwu, let's go to the secret pavilion first."

After He Yuan finished speaking, he quickly walked out the door.

Yin Qingxuan and Ye Jingyu looked at each other. Although she was He Yuan's daughter, they had just adopted her and had only lived with her for one day, yet she had already lost something. It was really embarrassing.

He Yuan took two steps and seemed to feel something was wrong. He turned around and said, "Don't think too much. Come over here together."

Gongsun Yunfeng forced a smile and said to the two: "There's nothing special about the secret chamber, just a few books. Since we're in Yincheng, we should go take a look."

Since the couple invited her so much, if she didn’t go, it would seem like she had something to hide, so Yin Qingxuan nodded to Ye Jingyu.

The four of them came to the secret chamber. The door was still locked. The lock on it was as big as a brick and looked extremely heavy.

He Yuan reached out and grabbed the door lock. A faint white light penetrated into the lock, and there was no sign that it had been opened. He couldn't help but frown.

Gongsun Yunfeng asked worriedly, "Did my husband find out anything?"

He Yuan had taken the key from Gongsun Yunfeng and opened the lock.

"The aura inside the lock is still the same as it was three years ago. There is no one else except me. How could this be possible?"

As he spoke, He Yuan had already entered the secret chamber.

When I got to the end, the book was still there.

Gongsun Yunfeng's expression suddenly relaxed.

"The book is still there, why did my husband suddenly say it was lost? It makes my heart almost jump out of my throat."

He Yuan opened the pages and checked them one by one before putting the book down, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.

He definitely would not have mistaken that technique, not to mention that he himself had also been hit by it. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a palm-sized spot on the bookshelf in the aisle. It was cleaner than other places and was obviously touched by someone.

He Yuan flashed to the bookshelf and immediately looked towards the small window on the east side.

"I think people came in from here."

Gongsun Yunfeng immediately came to the outside of the secret chamber and exclaimed: "This seven-piece chain lock is broken."

Before he finished speaking, he had returned to the pavilion, and the noose on his hand indeed had a broken mark.

He Yuan was furious. He had always thought that the people in Yincheng were united and friendly, but he never expected that someone would do such a petty and petty act.

"Silver City has such a scum. Someone, go and find out who has approached the secret chamber in the past few days."

Gongsun Yunfeng seemed to remember something and said, "There is one thing I haven't had time to tell my husband. Qingxuan mentioned Qi Yunzhi that day. Not only is she not dead, but she has been lurking in our Yincheng. She is Aunt Cui. The last time Qingxuan came to visit, she revealed her identity to Qingxuan. She stayed here to assassinate my husband. Before I knew this news, I felt sorry for her old age and frailty, so I went to visit her. After hearing Qingxuan mention this, I went to look for her again, but she had disappeared. Could it be related to the matter of the secret pavilion?"

"Aunt Cui is actually Qi Yunzhi?"

He Yuan looked shocked.

Yin Qingxuan stepped forward and said, "That's right. I also met her when I went to Zifu a few days ago. She coveted the Blood Tomb Technique and wanted to protect Du Yan. She was severely injured by us. She returned to Yincheng and must want to recuperate secretly here."

He Yuan nodded.

"I didn't expect her to be so vicious. Yunfeng, you must send the Thirty-Six Heavenly Warriors out of the city immediately and find Qi Yunzhi no matter what. Qingxuan, your mother has been injured by Xingyin Tianwu. Please go and take care of her for a few days. Take your father to capture Qi Yunzhi, and then go to Zifu to apologize to your mother."
