"There must be some misunderstanding." Yao Guang said hurriedly: "This token cannot be..."
"Of course there is a misunderstanding." Chu Liang patted him on the shoulder and said: "This token will appear here. It probably has nothing to do with Yao Lishi."
Li Chengfeng asked: "Why are you so sure?"
"First of all, we can't confirm whether these things are left by the real palace concubine, or whether they are hidden here by the fake palace concubine to frame them." Chu Liang replied: "In addition, even if they are the things of the real palace concubine, if Yao Lishi conspired with her, she You can come and go freely in Huanlong Prison, so why do you need a token? She got this token, but it just shows that she has no connection with Yao Lishi, so she needs this thing."
Li Chengfeng heard this and said, "That makes sense."
Yao Guang also breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness, for understanding everything."
If it were someone else who was confused, this might involve him in the Dragon Prison. After a thorough investigation, Yao Dengxian will definitely not be swayed. If they, the young ones, have something to blame, they will not be able to hide it.
Then Chu Liang picked up another porcelain bottle from the ground. Unlike the tightly sealed poison bottle, this porcelain bottle only had a cork, so it seemed not that dangerous.
He opened the stopper and found that it contained a bright red and golden liquid, which looked like some kind of spiritual blood.
After giving it to Li Chengfeng to examine it for a while, Li Chengfeng said: "This thing should be spirit fox blood."
"Spirit fox blood?" Chu Liang also heard a little about this.
The fox clan is best at the method of transformation. If the fox that has achieved enlightenment does not reveal its demonic aura when it transforms into a human form, it will be impossible to detect it at all, which is far better than ordinary blinding methods.
The Immortal Magic Spirit Fox Apparition imitates the magical powers of the fox clan, and has the effect of confusing the real with the fake.
And just as there must be an antidote to the poison in the world within five steps, the most effective way to crack this change lies with the Fox Clan itself.
If you obtain the heart essence blood of the Tao fox demon and refine it, you can obtain this kind of spirit fox blood after some sacrifices. All changes in the world will reveal their true colors even if they are slightly contaminated.
It's just that this thing is very rare. Just talking about the enlightened demon foxes who have reached the seventh realm and above, there are only a few in the world. Moreover, most of the powerful fox tribes are in the far west, and only a handful of them have appeared in the land of Kyushu for thousands of years. To get the heart essence and blood, it must be killed. How easy is it to kill such a big demon? What's more, they are the fox clan who are best at magical changes.
In the end, a seventh-level fox clan demon could only refine this small bottle of blood essence.
Even rare is not enough to describe it. This object has not been seen for thousands of years.
Li Chengfeng could recognize it because of the special smell of fox blood.
"Now we can conclude that these things belong to the palace concubine herself." Chu Liang said: "If it is the person pretending to be the palace concubine, there is no way that such an item that can crack her own magical power can be left here."
"Indeed." The other two agreed.
After that, the three of them turned their attention to the last item at the same time, and became slightly silent.
The item on the ground was a piece of red silk with gold embroidery and painted patterns. There were two straps on the top and two sides. It looked quite delicate.
The scientific name of this thing is Dudou.
Chu Liang looked at it and couldn't help but wonder why he was always destined to this thing?
"This is the palace concubine's private property. Even if she doesn't know her identity well now, she is still a noble concubine. It's not convenient for us to touch it, right?" Yao Guang whispered beside her.
"Eunuch Yao, will you carefully hide your bellyband in a storage artifact?" Chu Liang asked in return.
"Ah?" Yao Guang was suddenly shocked by his question. He jumped back a step, held his head in his hands, and shouted: "What did you say? I didn't! I didn't! I didn't!"
Chu Liang couldn't help but be surprised and looked at Li Chengfeng.
Good guy, there’s an unexpected bonus?
After a while, Yao Guang stood up straight again and said with a smile: "You two... what are you looking at me doing? Is there anything wrong?"
Chu Liang asked Li Chengfeng: "Li Tianguan, will you hide your bellyband in a storage artifact?"
"How is that possible?" Li Chengfeng spread his hands, "How could I have such a thing?"
Chu Liang also spread his hands and looked at Yao Guang: "Don't you think this is a normal reaction?"
"Ah..." Yao Guang froze immediately.
I can’t tell that your kid is still a harem bandit. You really can’t tell a person’s face.
"Don't worry, this matter is not our responsibility." Chu Liang said: "Our top priority is to investigate the palace concubine's case. As long as it is an object that she put in the storage artifact, there must be something special about it. ?”
As he spoke, he opened the bellyband and took a look.
On the front, there is a picture of autumn water, long sky, and mandarin ducks nestling together, and there are two small lines of poetry next to it.
"It's hard to send love between water and sky, everyone goes to where they miss each other."
Li Chengfeng read it once, and then checked it again, "It doesn't look like there's anything special about this bellyband?"
"It seems so." Chu Liang also smiled slightly and then put it away.
At this point, the inspection of the palace concubine's belongings has been completed. Although many of the palace concubine's hidden secrets have been exposed, it does not seem to be helpful in tracking down the murderer.
Yao Guang could only look at Chu Liang: "What should we check next?"
Chu Liang thought deeply and said, "It seems that the only thing that can lead to the next line is that token."
…
In the Yelong Palace, the Chu and Liang trio came again.
The emperor looked at the items placed in front of the table and was in a daze.
Imperial city map, poison bottle, magic-breaking golden hairpin, token, bellyband...
Just now, Chu Liang presented the concubine's belongings and revealed her intention to assassinate the king.
His favorite concubine had been hiding evil intentions and wanted to assassinate him. Although the emperor had guessed that the concubine's identity was not simple, he did not expect that she was ready to go to this point.
After a long while, he sighed and said: "That's all, this person has passed away, so it's useless to worry about it. I ordered you to go down and see who the concubine was sent to the palace, and who she had been in close contact with, to find out thoroughly. These people don't know what they are planning. How long has it passed before he was able to reach his hand into the palace again? Even if he cannot clean it out, he must cut off this hand."
"Your Majesty," Chu Liang said, "The person who contacts the concubine may not be in the palace, or he may come from outside."
"Huh?" The emperor looked up and said, "You mean the palace has channels to communicate with the outside world?"
"The underground waterway of the small lake in the palace concubine's garden has been opened, leading directly to the outside of the imperial city. The concubine often sits by the lake on weekdays, maybe she is conspiring with her companions," Chu Liang said.
"That's it." The emperor nodded, turned to Rolex and said: "Go and take a look, stay outside the lake for a while, and if there is no movement, deal with it completely."
When Chu Liang heard what he said, his heart suddenly moved. He seemed to have guessed what the fake palace concubine was doing sitting by the lake after killing someone.
It's just that things haven't come to light yet, so it's useless to speculate.
"Your Majesty summoned this old slave?" As he spoke, Yao Dengxian also strode into the hall and immediately fell to his knees.
"Yao Lishi, come back quickly. I sent you here because I have something to ask." The emperor said to him, "You should have worn the token of Dragon Prison yourself. Why did it get into the hands of the palace concubine? She should have used this to enter. Supervisor Huan Long conspired with Jin Long to escape."
"This token..." Yao Dengxian frowned upon seeing this.
"But what did she ask for from you?" the emperor asked again.
"It is true that someone asked me for this token, but it was not the imperial concubine." Yao Dengxian paused before saying, "It's the second prince."
