"I also thought about using magic, but didn't you notice? The further we go, the more our magic power will be weakened."
Chi Zhaoyue suddenly thought that this was a special method used by Gu Jiang to prevent monsters from causing trouble. "I was negligent. What should I do?"
"It seems we can't enter the third floor. Look over there, there are Gu masters who check whether people entering the city are monsters."
Chi Zhaoyue looked at it intently, and it was true. Then they could only return without success.
That's all, "How about going back? Ask King Dingnan for a long-term plan."
"This is the only feasible way now." Shen Huaiyan found a hat to cover his head, "But you can't go out today."
"Why?"
"We just came in. Isn't it too suspicious to leave the city so quickly?"
It turns out that Chi Zhaoyue and Shen Huaiyan stayed at an inn owned by people from the Western Regions, planning to stay for another two or three days before leaving the city.
In the past two or three days, they continued to sell goods as usual, and then left after selling out at bargain prices.
But in fact, even if they go out to guard now, they don't bother to care about them. They strictly check those who enter the city, but are not so strict on those who leave the city.

On the other side, major events also occurred in the capital at this time.
Now that Rong Jingyun is four months pregnant, rumors have spread from somewhere, "Let me tell you, the eldest young lady of the Dingnan Palace is not an easy person. I heard that she would marry someone with a baby." The eldest young master."
"Really? Is there such a thing?"
"Why not? Look at how strange his belly is. They have only been married for five months, and they are already so big."
A group of men chatted against the wall, and soon such words reached the ears of Rong Jingyun and Princess Dingnan.
"It's just nonsense." Princess Dingnan was so angry that her eyes were red.
Her son and husband were away fighting, but these ignorant people had the intention to spread such rumors to slander and seriously injure her daughter-in-law.
Princess Dingnan ordered a strict investigation into the matter, "Catch all those gossipers! I want to see who instigated such insults to Prince Dingnan's palace!"
The people in Prince Dingnan's Mansion were very efficient in handling matters and soon found out those who spread lies.
"Say! Who ordered you to do this?" Princess Dingnan sat on the main seat, with Rong Jingyun sitting on the lower seat.
The fierce aura emanating from the two men frightened the common people's legs, and they all knelt on the ground and kowtowed. Only one of them was still arrogant, "What? Could it be that what we said was wrong? Her belly is four to five months older than usual." , Moreover, she said she became pregnant just after getting married, who would believe it, so soon."
Princess Dingnan was too lazy to talk to him, "Slap your mouth!"
People who gossip like this will not be able to forgive their hatred even if they pull out their tongues, let alone just slap their mouths.
The others saw that his mouth was beaten to a bloody pulp, and they all told the truth, "It was a man in black who gave us money and told us to spread the news. He said he wanted to ruin the reputation of the young lady."
After all, these people didn't have the guts to offend the powerful, so they quickly vomited everything out.
The one whose mouth was beaten still refused to speak. It was okay not to speak. Princess Dingnan had many ways to treat such people. "Drag me down and give him ten sticks first. Then I will investigate his family background. Make sure to find out everything." Clearly."
When it came to investigating his family background, the man couldn't help it anymore and rushed to Princess Dingnan's feet and loudly asked her what she wanted to do.
Princess Dingnan put aside the man's hand and said, "What do you want to do? If you don't tell me, your family will end up like you."
"You are so cruel. Is this power? Oh, I have seen it."
"Cruel? You are not cruel by spreading rumors about a pregnant woman? What's more, her husband is still in the foreigner's home
Weiguo, what are you doing? "
Princess Dingnan smiled sinisterly. She rarely showed such a heartless expression, "So, compared with you, I can't be called cruel."
"But..." She paused, which gave the man a lot of hope, "If you are willing to tell the mastermind, I will let you go, and I can let this matter go."
She had a hunch that this man must know more than the others.
But the man is very tough-talking and won't say anything no matter what.
"In that case, we have to..." The person in the high position hesitated to speak, and the man couldn't help shouting: "Kill me if you can! Come on!"
"I won't kill you." Princess Dingnan asked someone to take him down, and the others who had given clear explanations were let go without embarrassment to them.
Rong Jingyun's fetus was unstable at this time, and she complained of stomachache. The imperial doctor came to check her pulse and said it was heartburn, "I have also heard about the recent events in the city. I don't need to pay attention to it, young lady. I just need to be careful about the fetus. I will give birth to Xia Lin'er in the future." , everything is revealed.”
To put it lightly, how could Rong Jingyun not worry about such a thing? Fortunately, the entire Dingnan Palace believed in her.
Otherwise she would really be in trouble, "Thank you, Dr. Xu, for bothering you."
"This is my duty, no need to worry about it." Dr. Xu prescribed some medicine for Rong Jingyun to reduce the fire, and left the Dingnan Palace with the medical box.
Within three days, Princess Dingnan's men found information about the tough-talking man's home, "Oh? He also has a pregnant wife?"
"Yes, but Princess..." The subordinate hesitated to speak.
Princess Dingnan looked at the subordinate impatiently, and the man immediately said: "It's just that his child doesn't seem to be his..."
"This is interesting, please elaborate." Princess Dingnan sat up straight.
"When my subordinates went there that day..."
The men began to recall what happened at that time...
Farm outside the city.
"You called me here so late, aren't you afraid that your man will find out?" The man dishonestly touched the face of the person next to him with one hand, his expression disgusting and obscene.
The woman sitting next to the bed may be six or seven months pregnant, and her belly looks swollen.
"He hasn't been back for a few days, and I don't know where he went to hang out." The woman coquettishly got into the man's arms.
"You..." the man touched the woman's belly, "aren't you just fooling around here too?"
The woman opened his hand and said, "I hate it. It's not all your fault. Fortunately, he didn't suspect it."
Hearing this, Princess Dingnan no longer wanted to hear any more and quickly stopped her men, "That's enough. You mean, it's a certainty that the man's child is not his?"
"Yes princess."
"Very good, I don't believe that with this news, he can still bite the bullet and not let go."
After a while, the man was taken to the front hall and said, "Just give up. I won't say anything."
"What if I exchange a very valuable piece of information with you?"
The man was dubious, "What information?"
"About your wife and the unborn child."
But the man felt that it was Princess Dingnan who was threatening their lives, so he scolded the higher-ups for being shameless.
He even spat on Princess Dingnan's dress, "Bah! You vicious woman! You don't even let pregnant women go!"
"Who said what I was going to do to them?" Princess Dingnan narrowed her eyes and smiled, "I never said I would do anything to her. I just wanted to make a deal with you. Don't worry, I will do what I say."
The man thought carefully for a while and decided to tell Princess Dingnan what he knew, "It's Mrs. Jin. My wife used to be her maid. I didn't agree to do such a shameless thing at the beginning, but I couldn't help it. She used My wife threatened me.”
But he didn't expect that he would be caught so quickly. He knew what would happen to him if he did such a thing, but his wife and children were innocent.
"Now it is your turn."
Princess Dingnan only hesitated for a moment, and the man thought she was going to regret it, "I didn't expect that the aloof Princess Dingnan would also regret it."
"Of course not. I was just thinking about how I should talk to you if you love your wife so much."
But what happened after that was all the grudge between the couple and had nothing to do with her. What she wanted to do now was to invite the so-called Mrs. Jin to her house.
After learning the truth, the man was let go. He walked back to the farm dejectedly. Looking at his wife who was beating Huanyi outside, he suddenly felt dizzy.
"Mr., you are back!" The woman stood up from the bench with her belly puffed out to greet the man.
Looking at his wife's erect belly, the man felt mixed emotions. He returned home in despair, rummaged for a while, and then stumbled away.
He used his own savings and the money he got from the Jin Li family to order a pretty low-class flower girl from Caixiang Pavilion and bring her back to the farm.
Hua Niang is much better than the woman who is not outstanding in appearance, "Why did you bring me here? Look, there is a pregnant woman here. Could it be that I want to have some excitement?"
Isn't it just to stimulate this bitch with exciting stimulation?
The man had a live sex act with the flower girl in front of his wife, and the woman was so angry that she almost threw a stool at him and killed them both.
None of the flower girls who came out of Caixiang Pavilion had experienced some storms, so they thought there must be something hidden in this and didn't care.
After collecting the required amount of money, she placed a gentle kiss on the man's cheek and said, "I will come to see you again next time~"
After saying that, he put on his clothes and left the farm with a smile.
"I gave birth to children for you! How could you do this to me!" The woman said this without even blushing.
…
The couple were noisy and noisy, and there was also a big drama going on in Dingnan Palace.
"Ms. Jin Li, have I, Prince Dingnan, offended you?" Princess Dingnan looked condescendingly at Mrs. Jin Li, who was kneeling in the hall.
Kneeling with her was Jin Ling.
"A common woman doesn't know why the princess said this..." Jin Li decided that Princess Dingnan had no evidence to prove that the recent series of things were done by her instigators, so she was still pretending to be dumbfounded.
"You must have heard of some ridiculous rumors in the capital recently. It happened that I arrested a man, and he said that everything was instigated by you. Do you want... should I let you confront each other?"
When she heard that she was going to be confronted face to face, Mrs. Jin Li panicked instantly, "No, no, no, what are you talking about? There must be evidence to arrest people. Don't just arbitrarily accuse good people just because your family is an official."
