Shen Yuexuan came out from the secret room first. The outside was the same as when he came, there was no one outside. Not long after, the people inside left one after another.
Ming Xi and Shang'er had already left the Shen Residence and were waiting outside for Fire Phoenix and Xu Jinbei to come out.
"Did the people inside say those words just now to harm Ming Yu?" Shang'er had not lived in the human world for long and most of her time was spent eating, drinking and playing with Ming Xi outside. She did not understand the internal strife of the imperial court.
"More or less." Ming Xi's eyes were dark and silent. Although he did not see who was in the secret room, he knew that Teng Ye was inside.
It seemed like Teng Ye was plotting a rebellion, but he did not know how many people he had hidden.
Shang'er rolled up her sleeves, "Let's kill the people inside first to prevent them from harming Ming Yu."
"No." Ming Xi pulled Ming Yu's hand, "Don't alert them."
"What do you mean?" Shang'er looked at him in confusion.
Ming Xi said in a low voice, "From what they said just now, it seems like they have been plotting for a long time. We don't know how many of their people are in the imperial court, so let's find out their background first."
"Okay." Shang'er listened to Ming Xi.
They waited outside for a while and before long, Fire Phoenix and Xu Jinbei came back.
Xu Jinbei's face was a bit pale as he kept looking at Fire Phoenix.
"What did you guys find?" Shang'er waved at them.
"We were almost found out. Fortunately, I took care of it." Fire Phoenix said proudly.
Xu Jinbei said, "This Shen Yuexuan is not simple. Those guests came from all over the world. There were people from the pugilistic world and many of them were famous scholars. He was only looking for a son-in-law, but he was able to get so many people to come under his tutelage."
Although the Jin Country did not restrict merchants, scholars always looked down on merchants. Shen Yuexuan being able to get so many scholars to come look for him was not simple.
"Let's talk after we leave this place." Ming Xi said with a heavy expression.
They found an inn in the city and the four of them talked about what they saw today.
"Teng Ye wants to rebel!" When Xu Jinbei heard Ming Xi's words, he stood up in shock, "We must immediately report this to the Emperor."
"Without any evidence, Sixth Uncle will not believe it." Ming Xi glanced at him, "Moreover, we don't know if there is anyone else behind him, so don't act rashly for the time being. From their words, it seems that they sent a beauty into the palace. I'm afraid that their goal is to have that beauty give birth to a prince before rebelling. They feel that when the time comes, they can legitimately support the prince to ascend to the throne." As he finished speaking, a cold, mocking smile flashed in Ming Xi's eyes.
Xu Jinbei felt that what Ming Xi said made sense. "Then what should we do next?"
"Is it really that troublesome? Let's just kill Teng Ye and end all troubles once and for all. "Fire Phoenix said.
Hearing Fire Phoenix's words, Xu Jinbei seemed to have thought of something and looked at her with a pale face.
Ming Xi calmly gazed out the window. "If we kill Teng Ye, we won't be able to find out how many people are behind him. Even if one Teng Ye dies, there will still be another Teng Ye. We might as well kill them all in one fell swoop and save ourselves more trouble later on."
"Isn't it just a throne?" Fire Phoenix whispered.
"Tomorrow, we'll investigate the Shen family again. We won't go to Tianjin City for the time being. Let's investigate this matter thoroughly first." Ming Xi said in a heavy voice.
Rong 'er obeyed Ming Xi's words. "Good."
Xu Jinbei said, "If Teng Ye is really here, he will be guilty of leaving the land without authorization."
"Don't worry about it. Only by doing so can we know how many people are behind him." Ming Xi said faintly. He had to tell his parents about this matter.
…
…
Ye Zhen and Mo Rongzhan had returned to the inn in the Jin Kingdom and were slowly returning to the capital.
After a few days of walking, it suddenly rained cats and dogs, and they found a place to stay.
"It's raining so hard outside." Standing under the eaves, Ye Zhen looked at the dark sky and was really confused. It was already the twelfth month of the year, how could it still rain so heavily?
"It's not normal." Mo Rongzhan walked behind Ye Zhen. This was the human world, where the spiritual energy was already very scarce. But today, he felt that the thin spiritual energy in the air had disappeared.
Ye Zhen thought that Mo Rongzhan was talking about the weather. "That's right, and looking at this posture, it won't stop for an hour or two."
Mo Rongzhan rubbed his eyes. "Wait a little longer."
"What's wrong? Are your eyes uncomfortable? "Ye Zhen noticed that he had been rubbing his eyes, and her mind was immediately pulled back.
"A little uncomfortable." Mo Rongzhan said lightly. Since it began to rain, his eyes had been stinging, so he felt that the rain was abnormal.
Ye Zhen hurriedly helped him into the house. "Sit down, let me see."
"Don't be nervous, it may be because of the rain." Mo Rongzhan laughed. He didn't want Ye Zhen to worry, so he didn't say it.
"How could it be because of the rain?" Ye Zhen cried. She held Mo Rongzhan's face and looked at his eyes carefully.
Boom!
There was a loud noise in the sky.
Mo Rongzhan's eyes felt a strong stinging pain, and a stream of heat rushed out of his eyes.
"What is this?" Ye Zhen exclaimed, hurriedly looking for a handkerchief to wipe his eyes.
Black?
"This is … black blood?" Ye Zhen asked in surprise, but it looked like blood. "Ah Zhan, are you okay?"
Mo Rongzhan heard her voice trembling. He held her hand tightly. "It's okay, it doesn't hurt so much anymore."
There must be something wrong with this rain! Is the Heavenly Dao punishing me?
No, that's not right. If it's the Heavenly Dao, it shouldn't be like this.
"Could it be that the poisonous blood has been forced out?" Ye Zhen was pleasantly surprised, hurriedly wiping Mo Rongzhan's eyes with the spirit spring water. When his eyes stopped bleeding, she realized that his eyes were no longer grey, but had returned to their original red and black colors. "Ah Zhan, you … you can see?"
When Mo Rongzhan saw Ye Zhen's blurry figure, his eyes flashed with a gloomy glint.
He knew very well that his eyes were not blinded because of the poison, but because the Heavenly Dao was suppressing his cultivation. This was the human world, and he had already transcended the mortal realm, so the restrictions were even greater. Today's rain had caused his eyes to break free from the restrictions …
The Heavenly Dao was losing its effect!
Something must have happened to the Exalted Goddess.
"I can't see very clearly yet." Mo Rongzhan said in a low voice, not knowing what had happened in the Exalted Goddess.
Ye Zhen happily wrapped her arms around his neck. "That's great, that's great!"
Mo Rongzhan looked at the heavy rain outside, his eyes darkening.
If the rules of the Heavenly Dao had really collapsed, this rain … would be a disaster.
"Do your eyes still hurt now? Why don't you lie down first? " Ye Zhen didn't notice the deep look in Mo Rongzhan's eyes. She was immersed in the joy of him finally regaining his sight.
"No, it's much better." Mo Rongzhan said with a smile. "Go outside and see if the rain is going to stop."
Ye Zhen saw that his eyes really seemed to be fine, so she stood hand in hand with him at the door. "It looks like it won't stop until tomorrow."
