Quick Travel: Dream Hunt

Chapter 66 The Oiran's Struggle 31

Wang Ziyu was thinking about something while speaking, and after a while he continued:

"I refused to let her go, but she took out the token of Loulan Kingdom, a glowing bead, with a tough attitude. She told me that the bead had a prophecy, and she was going to go out and find a suitable Loulan ruins to place. She also told me that if I wanted the Loulan ruins to see the light of day again, I would need the power of her blood. I was anxious and promised her to help her restore the country, but she refused. She said that after she placed the Loulan ruins and set up the ban, she would come back to find me. I couldn't stop her, so I didn't stop her. Later, she took the child and left me resolutely."

Ting He asked him, "After she left, did you marry Miss Cui?"

Wang Ziyu's eyes flashed and quickly returned to normal. He shook his head and said:

"Before I asked His Majesty not to grant the marriage, His Majesty took Miss Cui as his noble lady. Later, she entered the palace, and Jin'er has not returned for so many years."

Ting He frowned and asked:

"Miss Cui, Concubine Cui, does she like to wear brocade?"

Wang Ziyu looked up at Ting He in surprise and nodded:

"I heard that His Majesty loves her the most. She has been a noble lady since she entered the palace and has been favored by the emperor. He knows that she likes special styles, novelties and precious things, so he sent people to Jiangnan to buy enough brocade for her."

Ting He nodded and asked, "Didn't she come back later?"

Wang Ziyu shook his head.

"Did she tell you what the bead was?"

Wang Ziyu shook his head.

"Okay, let me ask you another question. Do you know where the Loulan ruins she mentioned are?"

Wang Ziyu sighed and said:

"I don't know. She left in a hurry and ignored me. She didn't tell me where the ruins were. She only told me that I needed blood power to open the ruins. I once asked her why she was looking for a place to put the Loulan ruins if they were on her body. She told me that she wanted to leave the Loulan heritage, but she didn't tell me where the ruins were."

Ting He nodded and said, "I've finished asking questions. You should go to bed early. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Wang Ziyu stood up hurriedly, grabbed Tinghe's sleeve and said:

"You are my daughter. Where else can you go if you don't live in the Duke's Mansion?"

Ting He stared into his eyes for a while before she smiled and said:

"My master has helped me find a place to live. I will go back to my master."

Who knew that Wang Anyu subconsciously said: "Master? Where did you get a master?"

Then he paused and continued:

"You are new here, so don't mistake me for a master. I am your father. If you have any problem, you can come to me. If you want to live in the Duke's Mansion, come to me."

Ting He nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, thank you, Dad. I'll go first then."

As soon as she finished speaking, Tinghe disappeared in a flash, and she teleported directly back to the courtyard she bought for Hongying.

Without washing up, he just threw away his shoes and stared at the ceiling without saying a word.

The system asked in confusion: "What's wrong with you? You asked three important people today and learned so much information. Why are you still so sad?"

Ting He smiled bitterly and said:

"Didn't you notice? Yan Jiuwen is lying, the Saintess of Southern Xinjiang is lying, Wang Yaozu is lying, and even Wang Ziyu is lying. They are not afraid of the Truth Talisman at all. They are just playing tricks on us."

The system exclaimed in disbelief:

"That's impossible. How could that be possible? The system's products must be top-notch."

Ting He shook his head and said:

"My intuition is correct. Wang Sheng is indeed a cover, but Madam Yan Jiuwen's statement is too perfunctory and cannot stand up to scrutiny. The words of the Saint of Southern Xinjiang are too violent and have her own interpretations. Wang Yaozu's thoughts are clear and his words are concise, but he only gave a rough outline and didn't say a single useful word."

She paused for a moment and continued to shake her head.

"Wang Ziwen is not only schizophrenic but also a great actress. I guess he is not afraid of the truth symbol at all. Maybe he can see me and is just playing a trick on me. He was not shocked to see me. He just acted like a man who misses his daughter more after seeing her. I don't know if the portraits in the room were a cover or were deliberately shown to me. I guess if he knew of my existence, he must have been waiting for me in the study on purpose. And he lied. His eyes flashed many times, which means some of his words were both true and false, and he exaggerated them."

Ting He continued to analyze:

"He knew me, but he also didn't know me. His last few sentences were full of loopholes. He said that I had just arrived and shouldn't randomly recognize a master. He also asked where I got my master from. Finally, he said that he was my father and that I should come to the Duke's Mansion to find him if I had anything. However, he didn't give me any token. It was definitely not because he was so excited that he forgot, but because he simply didn't want me to go again."

Hearing He say this, he closed his eyes and frowned a few times, then opened them again and said with tears streaming down his face:

"They are all villains. It's confirmed."

She took a deep breath and said:

"I suddenly feel that Jinniang's death is not simple at all. Although all the stories are connected, I don't believe any of them anymore."

"Yan Jiuwen said that he and Jinniang fell in love at first sight in the desert. Wang Ziyu said that he and Jinniang fell in love over time in the desert. The Saint of Southern Xinjiang said that Jinniang was surrounded by three men all day long. Wang Yaowu said that he couldn't get the love he wanted, so he withdrew from the competition and even gave it to Wang Ziyu."

"These people are all liars. They are all fake, all tricks. Although I don't have any evidence, I can feel that the original owner's obsession is disappearing little by little. This is not the world of ordinary scholars kidnapping young ladies."

"Don't forget the other soul in the prince's body, Jinniang who descended from the sky and could transform things out of thin air, the old monk who could see my true form after I became invisible, the half ball of light in the prince's mind, and what Yan Jiuwen said about the ruins of Loulan deep in the desert, and what Jinniang said about the key to unlocking Loulan being the power of blood, but they didn't say whether it was just a drop of blood or the whole body of blood."

The system got goose bumps after hearing this. It shivered and shrank, and said tremblingly:

"No, that's impossible. The world background didn't say that much. Are you overthinking it? We will be expelled from this world in two days. If the mission fails, then it fails. Why do you think so much?"

Ting He shook his head and said, "Once I am expelled, will the original owner's body also be expelled?"

The system shook its head and said, "No, the original owner's body was a mortal body, but after you washed it, it became an immortal body. Didn't you find that her body was invulnerable?"

After hearing this, Ting He rubbed it carefully, took off the gold hairpin on her head and stabbed it. After a scream of pain, her gold hairpin broke into two pieces, but her wrist was intact. After stabbing a few more times, more gold hairpins were broken. The system stopped her and said:

"Just vent your anger, don't waste your money, it's such a pity, really. Here, give it to me, I'll convert it into silver and recharge it for you."
