While the entire Eastern Capital was in chaos, Gu Feng was anxiously waiting in Donghuang Ling 'er's bedroom in the Eastern Capital's royal palace.
The most dangerous place was also the safest place.
When Yun Sheng and the others left Dongzhao Temple, they initially wanted to use the Hunter's Guild's power to hide.
But at the last moment, Yun Sheng chose to turn back and sneak into the Eastern Capital's Imperial Palace.
Donghuang Ling 'er was in Dongzhao Temple, and there were only two maids in her palace. Yun Sheng easily used the Corpse Puppet Technique to subdue those maids.
Hiding in the palace, they managed to avoid the frantic search of the Left Minister and the others.
Yun Sheng checked and found that Donghuang Ling 'er's appearance was very strange. Although she could speak and move, her eyes were empty, and she couldn't recognize Gufeng.
She was obviously being controlled by someone.
Yun Sheng also tried to use the Corpse Puppet Technique to control Ling 'er, but she found that Ling' er didn't have any reaction to her Corpse Puppet Technique.
Yun Sheng couldn't figure out the reason for this phenomenon.
At this moment, Tyrant Jin was guarding outside and sneaking into the Imperial Palace to gather information.
In the palace, only Yun Sheng, Gufeng, and the maids who used to serve Donghuang Ling 'er were left.
Yun Sheng used the Corpse Puppet Technique to interrogate the maids, and she roughly knew what happened.
According to the maids, when Ling 'er just returned to the Imperial Palace, everything was normal. But ever since that day, when she was sent back by Madam Chi Bi, something was wrong.
Donghuang Ling 'er also ignored the maids who were close to her, and spent all her time with that woman called Madam Chi Bi.
The strangest thing was that ever since that day, Donghuang Ling 'er accepted the arrangement and agreed to marry Dugu Xiu.
"It must be that woman called Chi Bi who did this. She is very evil, and she and Dugu Xiu are a pair of adulterers." Seeing Ling 'er's wooden appearance, Gufeng felt sour in his heart.
"Calm down. I'll think of something." It was the first time that Yun Sheng had encountered such a thorny problem.
She had also tried to get the little Elven Queen to heal Donghuang Linger. However, the Elven Clan's healing techniques were completely useless against Donghuang Linger's current condition.
The treatment came to a standstill.
Qi soon brought back news that Minister Zuo and his men had turned the entire Eastern Capital upside down, searching from house to house.
What they said to the public was not that the princess was missing, but that a thief had sneaked into the Dongzhao Temple last night and stolen important property.
It seemed unrealistic to leave Dongdu in a few days.
Yun Sheng and the others could only stay in the palace for the time being. On one hand, they were waiting for Yun Sheng to find out the cause of Donghuang Ling 'er's illness. On the other hand, they hoped that the search would end as soon as possible.
Yun Sheng and the others were hiding in the Imperial Palace. Prime Minister Zuo searched for them, but he couldn't find any clues.
Dugu Xiu's temper was getting worse and worse. On the evening of the second day, the Left Prime Minister still had a bitter face as he went to find Madam Chi Bi.
"What's wrong? You still can't find her?" Madam Chi Bi had a leisurely look on her face.
"Madam, you have to save me this time. If this continues, the crown prince will peel off my old skin sooner or later." Prime Minister Zuo wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.
"Prime Minister Zuo, why are you so worried? Actually, it's not hard to find the princess. After tonight, you will be able to find the princess's whereabouts." Madam Chi Bi smiled.
Hearing this, Prime Minister Zuo couldn't help but smile. "Madam, could it be that you have a method? Why didn't you say it earlier?"
"This method can only be used after tonight. It's useless to say it earlier." Madam Chi Bi said with a smile. "Prime Minister Zuo, every 24 Hour, the princess must take a special kind of pill that I specially made. If she doesn't take the pill, she will lose control and kill the people around her."
Hearing this, Prime Minister Zuo said, "Madam, did you tell the crown prince about this? His Highness seems to want to capture those assassins alive. If the crown prince finds out that you made this decision without his permission, I'm afraid that he won't be happy. "
Madam Chi Bi's smile faded bit by bit. "Why? Do you think that the crown prince will blame me for the death of a few insignificant assassins?"
Prime Minister Zuo hurriedly said, "I wouldn't dare. I'm just thinking for you."
Madam Chi Bi sneered in her heart. As a woman, how could she not feel that the crown prince's attitude towards the assassins this time was very unusual?
Especially the assassin who had fought with him earlier. Although she didn't see the face clearly, Madam Chi Bi was sure that the assassin must be a woman.
Moreover, it was a very beautiful woman.
Therefore, although she had a way to find out the whereabouts of those assassins tonight, she didn't want to inform the crown prince.
In the middle of the night, Madam Chi Bi sent her servants away.
She sat down cross-legged and took out a small and delicate flute from her bosom.
The flute looked very special. It was only the length of a finger and was entirely green. Madam Chi Bi gently blew the flute.
A very strange sound came from the flute.
This kind of sound was not very obvious at night.
Madam Chi Bi blew the flute three times before putting it down.
In her mind, a scene appeared.
"They are actually hiding in the imperial palace. These assassins are quite smart." Madam Chi Bi sneered.
Yun Sheng and the others who were hiding in the imperial palace began their daily meditation as usual.
Outside the palace, Tycoon Jin was keeping watch.
After Donghuang Ling 'er's consciousness became muddled, she was very quiet most of the time. Therefore, Yun Sheng and the others didn't pay too much attention to her.
Around midnight, Donghuang Ling 'er who had been sitting there all this time suddenly opened her eyes wide. She quietly took out her magic scepter and walked towards Yun Sheng and the others who were meditating.
If one were to carefully observe her eyes, they would discover that her eyes were different from usual. Her eyes were emitting a faint green light.
Her gaze slowly moved from the three people who were meditating, and finally, her gaze landed on Yun Sheng's face.
When she saw Yun Sheng's appearance, Donghuang Ling 'er, whose consciousness was completely controlled by Madam Chi Bi, revealed the same jealousy as Madam Chi Bi.
Madam Chi Bi was a very beautiful and enchanting woman.
When she saw Dugu Xiu for the first time, she had already fallen in love with him.
At the same time, she also understood Dugu Xiu very well. This man was cold and emotionless. He was a man who could accomplish great things. He would not be moved by any woman.
Therefore, even though she knew that Dugu Xiu was going to marry Donghuang Ling 'er, Madam Chi Bi didn't mind it.
However, after she met Yun Sheng, her initial confidence began to waver.
This female mage, just by sitting there quietly, was enough to attract everyone's attention. No wonder Dugu Xiu would lose his composure earlier.
This woman must be killed.
The magic scepter in 'Donghuang Ling' er's' hand shone with magical radiance. 'She' raised the magic scepter and aimed it at Yun Sheng's head.
