Jiang Yucheng slowly sat up straight, his face so tense that his expression looked quite strange.
"Why did Pavilion Master Yuchi say this? When Emperor Ji's accident happened, there was a huge commotion, and many people in the palace can testify. You said that. But what did you find?"
Yuchisong paused briefly.
"It's not that I found anything, it's just that I suddenly remembered a lot of things recently and felt something was wrong. For example, Di Ji always practiced in her own special room, so why did she suddenly go to the royal ancestral hall to try to break through, and finally went crazy? Die by self-immolation? There are memorial tablets enshrining the ancestors of the Tianling Dynasty. It’s so good, why did Di Ji go there?”
Jiang Yucheng lowered his eyes and spoke in a calm voice.
"To tell you the truth, I have always had doubts about this matter. But according to the third princess, Di Ji mentioned this matter to her before she went to the royal ancestral hall, which shows that she was well prepared. At that time The third princess also asked, but Di Ji did not answer. I never thought that to this day, only Di Ji would know the reason for this matter."
Yu Chisong continued to ask:
"You mean, Di Ji prepared to go to the royal ancestral hall in advance?"
Jiang Yucheng nodded, with a trace of sadness on his face.
"If I had known what would happen later, I should have dissuaded her at that time."
Yuchisong's eyes flashed.
".So it turns out that I'm overthinking it."
Jiang Yucheng glanced at him:
"Pavilion Master Yuchi, I know that you have a deep relationship with Di Ji, and her passing is a huge blow to you. But she has passed away, so you should grieve. If you are so troubled and depressed every day, Emperor Ji's spirit in heaven will be sad if he knows about it."
Yuchisong looked tired and rubbed his eyebrows.
"It's really strange. If Emperor Ji really had something important to do, she would usually not be so unprepared and not even tell anyone. I thought she was forced to be taken to the royal ancestral hall!"
Jiang Yucheng's heart skipped a beat and he forced a smile.
"Pavilion Master Yuchi, you are really worrying too much. Her Royal Highness the Emperor Ji has a noble status and is obeyed by no one. How could anyone have the guts?"
"Yes! She has a kind heart. How could someone have such courage and such a vicious heart?"
Yuchisong murmured in a low voice, word for word.
It seemed like he was talking to himself, but also like he was questioning someone.
Jiang Yucheng's heart beat faster, the blood in his body seemed to be frozen, and his limbs were cold.
He lowered his eyes.
"It seems that I really misunderstood."
Yu Chisong stood up and let out a long sigh.
"Now that the matter is clear, I will not waste Young Master Jiang's time and leave now."
Jiang Yucheng raised his head: "Are you leaving now?"
"Yes. The sect meeting has just ended, and there are still many things to deal with in Chongxu Pavilion. In addition, the matter of Hunyuan Sha will trouble Mr. Jiang."
Jiang Yucheng bit the bullet and said:
"Don't worry, I will investigate this matter in person immediately when I get back. I will interrogate all those who accompanied me to southern Xinjiang. I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."
Yuchisong nodded with relief, then said goodbye and left.
Jiang Yucheng gave him a few token words of reluctance and then personally sent him out.
After Yu Chisong's figure disappeared outside the gate of Jiang Mansion, Jiang Yucheng looked away, turned around and walked quickly back to the study with an expressionless face.
Sun Qi saw something wrong with his face and felt a little uneasy:
"The eldest son—"
Jiang Yucheng's voice was as cold as ice:
"Immediately summon all those who have been to southern Xinjiang. I will interrogate them one by one!"
Sun Qi's eyes flashed with surprise, but when he saw Jiang Yucheng's face, he immediately said:
"Yes! I will do it now!"
After saying that, Sun Qi immediately exited the study, not forgetting to close the door of the study carefully before leaving.
When he was the only one left in the room, Jiang Yucheng finally couldn't suppress the anger in his heart and swept the things on the table to the ground!
The people outside seemed to have gotten Sun Qi's advice, and they all stayed quiet, with no one responding.
Jiang Yucheng's chest heaved violently, his face turned red, and veins popped up on his forehead. Only his lips were pale and looked very strange.
Yu Chisong came today, ostensibly to let him investigate the matter of Hunyuan Sha, but in fact, he clearly had other motives!
He deliberately mentioned Shangguan Yue and said those words. What did he want to do
If Yu Chisong really just had a simple suspicion, he would definitely not come to Jiang Mansion and tell him this directly.
What did he know
Is he coming here as a test or a threat
Jiang Yucheng was in a state of confusion, and his mind was in chaos.
After a long time, his mood finally calmed down.
He stood there, thinking for a long time with a gloomy expression, and then lifted up his sleeves.
An ugly red scar that had scabbed over lay across it.
He took a deep breath, took out a box of plaster from the cabinet next to him, and slowly applied it.
The more Yuchisong doubts him, the calmer he has to be and the more he has to be absolutely foolproof!
But for some reason, the hand that applied the medicine was trembling slightly.
After Mu Qinghe left Jiang Mansion, he wanted to go back to Mu Mansion first.
But thinking about what Jiang Yucheng said before leaving, he changed his mind again, changed his direction, and walked towards Liuyun Street.
The main street of Xiling is always busy with people coming and going.
He walked through the crowds and through the noisy streets.
After turning a few corners, the number of people around gradually decreased and became quiet.
The sky started to snow at some point.
Goose feather-like snowflakes fell down and landed on his head, and his clothes were gradually stained with a layer of white frost, giving him a bone-chilling chill.
He walked forward in silence and finally stopped in front of a house.
The always clean and tidy bluestone road has been covered with a layer of snow.
Behind him was a series of clear footprints.
He raised his head and looked at the familiar door in front of him.
He has been to this place many times.
But for more than a year, it never came again.
He thought he would never come here again, but he didn't expect
There is a plaque hanging above the gate.
—Chu Mansion.
The handwriting is as graceful as a swimming dragon, obviously Yuchisong's handwriting.
Mu Qinghe's brows furrowed slightly.
It seems that Yu Chisong's love for Chu Liuyue is deeper than previously expected.
He thought that Yuchisong would never let anyone live in this place.
But in just over a year, things have already changed.
Mu Qinghe stared at the door for a while, then turned around and planned to leave.
But as soon as he took a step, he heard footsteps coming from inside the door.
He was stunned.
Chu Liuyue and Qiang Wanzhou should not live here now, so why would there be anyone inside
Just as he was thinking about it, there was a "squeak" sound, and the door was opened from the inside.
A somewhat familiar face appeared in front of him.
"Vice General Mu, my master invites you—"
Today is a waste of February.
Update at 12 noon tomorrow.
Rest for two days and then add more as appropriate.
Thank you for your understanding~
