I rely on tricks to cultivate my longevity

The complexion of the head of the Internal Affairs Department surnamed Yao turned from white to blue in an instant, and from blue to black again. No matter how difficult it was to maintain the original shape, the limbs and torso softened and showed their original shape.

But before the big slug that showed its original shape had time to make any moves, the Soul Seizing Soil began to suck its power recklessly, sucking it into a slug in an instant.

Only a small pile of Spirit Reaping Soil glowing white was left on the ground.

There were screams among the crowd, and everyone seemed to be quite frightened by this shocking change.

"Unexpectedly, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, a person who is incompetent, has been corrupted by such evil spirits."

The emperor first smiled jokingly, as if mocking himself, but then turned into a sneer, and said, "Is there anyone willing to drink this second glass of wine?"

At this time, how can everyone fail to understand the intention of the Holy One, obviously to find out the evil spirits lurking around them through this special drink that can make the evil spirits give up their original forms.

If you can take the initiative to stand up at this time and drink this second glass of wine, you will definitely be able to leave a deep impression in front of the Holy One.

So, from the beginning, no one dared to respond, and suddenly became scrambling.

And when everyone is scrambling to move forward, suddenly a few people retreat quietly, this is an act of self-reporting.

Of course, with Lin Xixue lurking in the dark, they naturally had no chance of escaping.

She squeezed the Spirit Seizing Soil into a projectile, snapped her fingers, and accurately hit the few people who were slowly retreating.After a while, there were a few more shriveled slugs on the ground.

There was also discussion among the crowd.

"Isn't this Concubine Xia, I never thought that she is also an evil spirit lurking around me!"

"There is also Mr. Han, I just visited his mansion a few days ago, and now it seems that I am really blessed and lucky." A concubine held her heart and acted like she was shocked.

After all the people at the scene checked one by one, seven slugs were found, and Lin Xixue got seven more holdings of spiritual soil, but the emperor's complexion was extremely ugly.

He had never thought before that there were so many evil spirits lurking around him, he said in a deep voice, "Shi Aiqing!"

"My minister is here!" Shi Xueqian stepped forward to listen to the order.

"The four nobles and Concubine Yan who were not present, have you had this drink?"

"Long live Qi, I have already delivered the drinks for you ladies, stare at them, and everything is as usual."

"Okay, drive to Jingfu Palace, I want to greet the Empress Dowager."

"Report to Your Majesty, Eunuch Yao has passed away, and there is no one in charge of the affairs of the House of Internal Affairs at this moment." A rather young eunuch stepped forward to speak.

The emperor glanced at the little eunuch, feeling unspeakable boredom in his heart, flicked his sleeves, and said impatiently: "Then you will take charge of the House of Internal Affairs first."

The little eunuch was overjoyed, he thanked him immediately, and then shouted in a male duck voice: "Show Jingfu Palace!"

"And you guys, let's all leave too. You've all seen the situation right now. The evil spirits are lurking very deep. If there is no special reason, don't leave the palace at will. Otherwise, you will be infected with evil spirits. Don't blame me for being merciless!"

All the concubines were naturally silent, not daring to say anything, and nodded in agreement.

In Gyeongbokgung Palace, the emperor's hand holding the tea bowl trembled slightly. He was very afraid of what would happen to the empress dowager after drinking the cup of tea.

After all, the person in front of me is the Empress Dowager of Yunzhou, but she is also his mother.

But now, he had to toast this cup of tea.

The Empress Dowager took the tea bowl with a smile, took a sip, then frowned, and said, "Where is this tribute tea, it has an earthy smell and sticks your tongue."

Hearing this complaint, the emperor finally breathed a sigh of relief. After all, he could still complain, which meant that his mother had not been corrupted by evil spirits.

He found a random reason and put the matter aside, the two had a short chat and then left again.

Lin Xixue, Shi Xueqian and the emperor returned to the imperial study to discuss the next step.

Although he succeeded in catching the evil spirit lurking beside him, the emperor was in an extremely bad mood at the moment. He knew very well that if this arrogant little girl hadn't helped him this time, he would have been in danger.

"Shi Aiqing, and this righteous man, the first step of this plan has been completed, how will we proceed next?"

However, Shi Xueqian doesn't know what to do next. His biggest advantage is that he absolutely obeys orders, but his disadvantage is that he can only obey orders.

When asked about this, he had no choice but to bow his hands and salute: "My humble minister is a warrior, not good at strategy, please be judged by your majesty!"

Naturally, the emperor didn't expect Shi Xueqian to come up with any nutritious tricks, and these words were all for Lin Xixue.

But Lin Xixue didn't have the slightest intention to talk to him at this moment. She leaned on the pillar of the hall, resting her chin with one hand, her eyes closed.

She was thinking about a very important thing - where did the blood shadow on Shi Xueqian's body go?

This blood shadow is the condensation of evil spirit, Lin Xixue originally thought that the evil spirit of Yan Mansion was to nourish this blood shadow, but she never saw where this blood shadow was hiding.

Where will it go?
Not in the garden of King Cheng, nor in the Yan Mansion, where the evil spirit is so fierce, where else can it be hidden?

If this thing is not removed as soon as possible, it will always be a great hidden danger when fighting Yan You.

"Ahem, this righteous man!" The emperor cleared his throat and called her again.

"Are you talking to me?" Lin Xixue tilted her head and blinked.

The emperor was also tortured by her at this moment and completely lost his temper. Although his forehead was full of black lines, he unexpectedly didn't feel angry anymore, and just replied with a dry smile: "Hehe, that's right, isn't there only the three of us in this study?" .”

"My surname is Lin." The corner of Lin Xixue's mouth revealed a hint of amusement.

"Then Miss Lin, how should I deal with the second and third steps?"

"I don't know, I forgot."

"Forgot? At such an urgent juncture, Miss Lin should stop joking with me."

"You forgot what you promised me before, so I naturally forgot the next plan." She raised her eyebrows, "Have you finished writing the imperial decree for the Cheng family's redress?"

"Eh, drafting the purpose also takes time."

"I asked you to find out the origin of the Bafang plate, it is best to be accurate to the kiln where it was fired. Have you checked it out?"

"I will let the Ministry of Internal Affairs"

"As for the Ministry of Internal Affairs, your head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs has long been a slug and lost his memory? Do you think the records written by slugs can be trusted?"

"I" the emperor was speechless by Lin Xixue. Although he was very dissatisfied in his heart, he couldn't find any reason to refute.

"Write it, write it now. You personally write the imperial decree to rehabilitate the Cheng family. When will you finish writing it? When will I tell you the next plan."

"This kind of thing is usually drafted by the cabinet bachelor, and I"

"Now, finish writing, give it to me, do you know how to write or how to speak?" Lin Xixue was not polite at all, she had to put eye drops on the emperor, otherwise the forgetfulness would be too great.

The emperor had no choice but to write the imperial decree with a pen, stamp it with a jade seal, and hand it over to Lin Xixue.

"I'll keep this as a file first, and you can write another one another day and tell the world."

"Are you still afraid that I won't deny you?"

"That's right, that's it."

The emperor was choked by her again and couldn't speak. It was the first time he was so aggrieved since he was born.

Lin Xixue put away the imperial decree, first glanced out of the palace gate, then turned around and said, "The core of the second and third steps is the four words——Wai Shi must be missing!"
