Chapter 100: Chen Yaojin came out halfway
If the eunuch Lao Li told the truth, that Mrs. Wu was the midwife of the imperial concubine, and that the imperial concubine rewarded her with the gold ingot, then the searching technique for finding the gold ingot could quickly locate Mrs. Wu.

Bai Li didn't dare to delay and took action immediately.

The rustling sycamore leaves were rolled up, hovering in mid-air and dancing wildly for a few moments, then returned to silence.

The little maids chattered about Mrs. Wu making enough money and returning to her hometown in fine clothes, with admiration in their voices.

Only Bai Li stood silent at the mouth of the dry well.

After all, it was too late.

The deer boy closed his eyes, and the glazed antlers suddenly flashed with fluorescent light. Death energy rose from the dry well and rushed through the glazed antlers first. What’s interesting is that after purification, the “death energy” came back to life and turned into “life”.

After absorbing all the death energy, Lu Zai said quietly: "Mother Wu said that she was thrown down."

As a death beast, it is his instinct to purify and use death energy. While practicing in seclusion some time ago, he devoted himself to mastering the skills of communicating with the souls of the dead, but he didn't expect that it would come in handy so quickly.

Bai Li: "Do you know who did it?"

Lu Zai shook his head: "She said that it was too dark to see clearly. All she could tell was that the man's hands were colder than ice and he walked without making any sound, just like Chu Xie. And Mrs. Wu didn't know that someone wanted to kill her."

Not much information was obtained, but the effort was not in vain.

Mrs. Wu was suddenly killed, but her whereabouts were deliberately covered up, which shows that the mastermind behind the scenes did not want to make the matter bigger. As the only witness to the birth of the imperial concubine, as long as she keeps her mouth shut forever, no one will know the true gender of the imperial heir.

This just shows that Chu Bomeng has something in his heart.

He just needs a "princess". Everyone knows that the imperial concubine is pregnant with Liujia, so no matter whose belly the princess escapes from, it will only be the imperial concubine's child.

Whether it was the biological mother of the third princess, the dead Mo Ziyuan, or even more people, they were just His Majesty's pouches.

She is only responsible for giving birth until a daughter is born.

Lu Zai frowned in confusion: "What does this Chu Bo Meng want to do?"

Bai Li shook her head. She didn't know clearly, but it was definitely not a good thing.

To solve this mystery, I'm afraid we must first find the abandoned babies and their mothers. With Chu Bomeng's ruthlessness, he must have cleaned up the matter long ago, and he was worried that no evidence would be found for a while. Besides, there were hundreds of pairs of eyes watching her in the palace, and she was not allowed to act recklessly.

If the formation is forcibly formed, there will be many elite disciples from the aristocratic families at the banquet, and they will be noticed soon.

At that time, as long as Chu Bomeng randomly labeled her an assassin and everyone rose up to kill him, she would not be able to defend herself.

Lu Zai felt a headache when he heard this: "What should we do?"

Bai Li raised the corners of her lips, smiled without saying a word, and tapped Lu Zai's head lightly with her index finger, then turned around and left.

Lu Zai's head was buzzing: "No, sister, please explain it more clearly! What do you need me to do?"

Bai Li waved his hand: "Go back and practice obediently. This is an adult's business. Children, please don't interfere."

Lu Zai: "..."

She is obviously only seventeen years old!

Not long after, Bai Li returned to the banquet. At that time, the emperor and the empress were toasting Chu Yunxiao with a bottle of oil. Although Chu Bomeng was the host, he was far less noble than the aristocratic family, so he had to lower his profile.

After three drinks, both the host and the guests were tipsy.

Bai Li stood openly among the Dongfang family, but no one recognized her. Chu Yunxiao was so drunk that he almost fell down and was directly helped by the young eunuchs to sober up.

On the contrary, it was Chen Yuefei from the Chen family at the next table who cast a very unkind look.

Catching Bai Li's gaze, Chen Yuefei gave her a vicious look, then lowered his head and said a few words in the ear of his younger sister Chen Yanran, causing the look in Chen Yanran's eyes to change.

Just as he stood up and prepared to find trouble, there was suddenly a strange sound in the distance. It was an explosion.

The Ouchi masters flew out instantly, lined up in an orderly manner, and guarded the sky above the imperial city. Everyone raised their heads in confusion, only Dongfang Yunyi waited for an opportunity to pull Bai Li over: "What happened?"

His intuition told him that trouble was likely to occur where Bai Li was present. Isn’t this effective?

Bai Li: "...I know it."

Just as he was about to quibble, he heard a taunt coming from above him: "How dare you show off such a crappy formation and it's embarrassing. You outside monks are really impressive."

Bai Li looked up in surprise.

The explosion was actually the restriction at the city gate being forcibly broken. It only took a few breaths to climb over the city gate to the palace, a distance of dozens of miles.

What a great speed.

Most of you here are the proud ones of heaven, and you cannot tolerate verbal stimulation. Chen Yuefei immediately jumped out and asked: "Whose family do you belong to? How dare you say such nonsense in front of me when you name me?"

The visitor sneered: "You want to know my name? You are not worthy."

He waved his hand casually, and hundreds of orange-gold notes flew out of his sleeves, covered with finely drawn charms. The visitor muttered a few words in a low voice, and the note suddenly burned. The red fire was like a red-tailed fish swimming in the water, lighting up the dark night sky.

There are two people in the night sky, both wearing navy blue cloaks, and they are not dressed in the Central Plains style.

One of them gave an order, and the hundreds of burning talismans flew out, aiming at the palace servants blocking the way.

"Help!"

"Why can't this fire be extinguished?"

The talisman paper burned when it met someone, as if taking root and sprouting on the body. No matter how they sprinkled water or rolled around, they could not extinguish it. Screams came one after another, and everyone's faces gradually became solemn.

Who are the two people who came out halfway?
Especially Chu Bomeng, whose face was livid with anger.

The mysterious young man was having a good time, and another person who was standing by and didn't speak suddenly said: "It's almost time."

Hearing this, the young man put away the spell angrily, and all the flames died down instantly. If it weren't for the black smoke still coming out of the master Ouchi's body, everyone might think they were dreaming.

Manipulating people to self-immolate is so weird.

Chu Bomeng's face was so dark that he could squeeze out ink: "Why did you two break into my imperial city for no reason, hurt my guards, and scare my distinguished guests?"

The young man raised his eyebrows: "Old man, don't be so lazy in front of me. Why are we here? Don't you, a thief, know best? It's easy to break in. If you dare to protect those damn remnants, you will be punished." I will kill you together."

Suddenly, everyone's eyes were focused on Chu Bomeng, and the eyes of the children of the aristocratic family were especially unkind.

Do they know each other?

Chu Bomeng's eyes suddenly darkened.

"What kind of remnant are you talking about? Tell me clearly. I, Chu Bomeng, have been upright throughout my life and have never associated with evil. If you two make false accusations, I will not be able to spare you."

As if he didn't expect Chu Bo Meng to be so courageous, the young man became more serious: "You dare to swear on your life that you are not harboring the remnants of our evil sect, otherwise will you be struck by five thunders and your soul will be destroyed?"

The evil sect of my clan?

Bai Li couldn't help but open his eyes wide. They were from the Wu tribe!

Chu Bo laughed loudly: "If I dare to swear, what should you do? Boy, do you dare to commit suicide in front of my injured monk Qiu Mingguo?"

The young man was irritated: "Come on, am I still afraid of you?"
