Soul seducing spirit Gu!
Suddenly hearing these words, Qiao Jiaojiao's heart tightened, and she suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment.
【String together! It’s finally time to string it together! 】
The eldest prince was stunned when he was asked.
Soul seducing spirit Gu? Isn't this matter... already over? My father said back then that he would not pursue any further investigation.
The eldest prince looked confused. He didn't know what the connection was between this Gu and the words he just asked.
At this time, the king suddenly raised his head, looked around, and finally looked at the Qiao family and Che Hebi in the corner.
This look was quite meaningful, and Qiao Jiaojiao couldn't help but look at it seriously.
When the king spoke again, his voice was cold and his tone was slow.
"It is destiny. Since the three countries are gathered together today, I will take this opportunity to explain everything that happened back then."
"Master Qiao, you... must have heard of the name of the soul-drawing Gu, right? In other words, Master Qiao also wants to know more about this Gu during this trip?"
"The theft of the Seductive Spirit Gu was not what I wanted. Today I just made it clear in front of Mr. Qiao that we must not ruin the goodwill between the two countries."
When Qiao Zhongguo heard this, his face changed slightly.
The inner story of the Yong Kingdom's throne change has been properly covered up, and the Supreme Emperor has only claimed to be ill so far. As for the "gu" issue, it has been completely suppressed for the sake of the Supreme Emperor and the face of the Yong Dynasty.
But now listening to the words of the leader of Nanli, it is obvious that he has a clear mind about the "dramatic changes" in Yong Kingdom.
From this point of view, the reason why this Gu was able to get into Yu Liu's hands back then was probably because there was a lot of inside story!
"As for Master Che..."
The king tilted his head, his eyes fell on Grandmaster Che's always calm face, and he suddenly chuckled: "Your country has an extraordinary princess."
Grand Master Che's brows jumped, but the next moment he raised his head in confusion, "Your Majesty, please forgive me for being blunt. I really don't understand the deep meaning of your words."
The king's lips raised slightly when he heard this, "It's okay, Grand Master Che is not sure at this time. When Gu Yi comes along, everything will become clear."
Everyone's eyes were focused on the king, and he saw memories in his eyes and said in a calm tone:
"Nanli once had a treasure, the soul-calling and pulling-spirited Gu. It was cultivated by the most skilled Gu doctor around the late emperor who spent half his life."
"This voodoo has one mother and two sons. Once awakened, they need to eat human flesh and blood. When they grow up, they will completely recognize their master. The two son voodoos are driven by the mother voodoo. The one with the middle son voodoo will be completely attracted to the owner of the mother voodoo and lose their mind, and even... Become the puppet of the Mother Gu Lord."
"Although this Gu is against the heavens, in the end it is a lose-lose situation, because after the three Gus cannibalize the flesh and blood, the host will not be able to live long."
"Therefore, after Gu took over the Gu from the late emperor, he locked it in the treasure house with no intention of using it."
"The existence of the Soul-Seducing God Gu is no secret, and the first person to reach out to it in so many years was Gu's ex-wife, the noble daughter of the Shen family, Shen Huilan."
Now that the boss has made his thoughts clear tonight, he has nothing to hide.
I originally planned to directly appoint the second child as the crown prince on the day of the birthday banquet, but today I simply made it clear and clear, which stopped the eldest brother’s thoughts and the third child’s thoughts!
Mentioning his ex-wife, the king couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Shen Ningyun.
Shen Ningyun lowered her head and looked at her toes, avoiding the gaze of the king, but a strange cold look flashed across her pale face.
When the king turned around, his expression darkened.
The old man of the Shen family was the founder of Nanli. He was deeply trusted and favored by Taizu at that time. Nanli has been handed over to him for three dynasties.
During this period, the Shen family has always stood firm, and even continued to grow. Its influence is intertwined, and it has become the largest family in Nanli!
Let me ask, which king can still sleep peacefully with such a fierce tiger lying beside him?
"The soul-drawing Gu can confuse people's minds. They are extremely sensitive. Shen Huilan actually wants to get involved. This makes Gu have to doubt... her ambition."
When Shen Ningyun heard these words, her shoulders shook slightly, and there was a trace of struggle on her face, as if she was holding back something.
The king's chest rose and fell. It was obvious that he had endured the Shen family for too long over the years.
"In order to find out Shen Huilan's intentions, I played a game of chess and quietly weakened the guards of the treasure house, leaving a loophole for Shen Huilan."
"If she really steals it, even if Gu doesn't want to believe it, she and the Shen family will still live up to Gu's expectations!"
"However, I don't know if Gu misunderstood her or if she saw the flaw somewhere, she stopped in time. Even after this incident, she persuaded Shen Gaolang to resign as prime minister and cut off contact with his disciples. "
These words are quite profound. It is obvious that the king's guess about Shen Huilan is more inclined to the latter.
"Gu is very relieved about this, but after this incident, Gu got distracted and forgot to instruct the guards, leaving a loophole in the treasure house."
"later--"
"It's not like this!"
At this time, the voice of Shen Ningyun, the wife of the stepmother, suddenly sounded, interrupting the king's words.
Everyone looked at her and saw her walking directly in front of the king step by step. She raised her head as if she had made up her mind and looked directly at the king with a cold face.
The king frowned and suddenly felt that Shen Ningyun in front of him was very strange.
In front of him, Shen Ningyun always looked gentle and uncontested, even a little cowardly, but now her eyebrows were firm and cold, so fearless, as if she was a different person.
"My lord, you were very suspicious of your aunt in your words just now. Have you already concluded in your heart that your aunt has ulterior motives and just wants to steal the soul-drawing Gu to plot against you?"
The king's face darkened when he heard this, and he said coldly: "How dare you talk to me like this!"
Shen Ningyun indeed seemed like a different person. She still faced the king directly, never bowing her head or retreating.
Baili Chengyou stood behind him and saw that his mother was completely different from usual. There was no trace of surprise on his face, as if he had known about it for a long time.
"My Lord, that day you coaxed me to drink that glass of wine. Do you think I didn't know that that glass of wine cost my life?"
"I know, but I have never resisted, or even exposed the Lord's thoughts."
"Because even I can see that the Lord is trying to protect His Highness, and I don't resist because I have a full family of Shen and You'er behind me."
"I have expressed my determination to the Lord with the belief that I will die. The Shen family is willing to accept the arrangement of the Lord. The Shen family has been obedient, but why can't you see these Lords at all?"
"You said that my aunt wanted to steal the soul-drawing magic. My aunt did have this idea back then, but she didn't do it to manipulate the Lord. She just wanted a son!"
"My lord, please be careful of the Shen family. My aunt gave birth to two daughters, both of whom were frail and sick, and later died of illness one after another. Do you think we don't know that this is all your fault?"
"Tiger poison doesn't eat its seeds, and besides, my aunt has given birth to two daughters. You are too afraid to keep them!"
Over the years, in order to let Youer grow up safely, she worked hard and was so vigilant that she could not even sleep at night!
She had been on tenterhooks for so many years. Now that Youer told her not to endure it anymore, she couldn't bear it anymore!
"My lord, now that things have happened, you understand that my aunt wanted to steal the soul-drawing Gu back then, not because our Shen family coveted the throne, but because if this prince did not have the blood of the Shen family, the entire Shen family would surely die!"
