Chapter 158 Two major problems solved
Hearing this slightly horrifying story, Ye Shengxin swallowed and glanced in the direction of Ye Wanqiu.
"How old was your master when he passed away?"
The topic changed a little too quickly, and Zhang Liang didn't react, but he said truthfully: "Seventy-nine."
Ye Xingxin took a breath and said, "Then your master is quite cool. He can sleep with a young man in his twenties at the age of eighty. It's not a loss to live this life again."
"I just don't know if Ye Zhengyao can bear it after knowing this."
Zhang Liang:......
Emperor Jingming: ...
Hao Duanzhuang: ...
Prince:......
Really, what a novel train of thought.
There were flashes of swords and sabers below, and the situation was critical, but it could not affect this side for the time being. Hao Duanzhuang came out to make his presence felt: "Since ancient times, borrowing corpses to revive the dead has been against the will of heaven. Your master is like this, isn't he afraid of retribution?"
Zhang Liang lowered his head, "If I remember correctly, Madam Ye is thirty-nine this year. Next year, my master will die next year."
"This is the price of resurrection."
Emperor Jingming didn't understand: "She dared to spend such a price on her own son?"
Zhang Liang smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Resurrection is different from life exchange. My master had no one to help him at that time, and no one had the ability to help him, so this was the only way."
"But when it comes to her own son, she can completely control the overall situation, so naturally she doesn't need to pay any price to exchange her life."
Ye Xingxin blinked his eyes, [Then I, a visitor from another world, fell into this body for no reason. Will I not live past the age of forty? ]
[Oh my God, I have no intention of harming anyone. I don't even know how I got here. Please don't punish me.]
Zhang Liang sighed.
"Don't worry, Big Duck. I see from your face that you don't have a short life span. You don't have to worry about dying early."
The question was so big that Ye Shengxin didn't realize that Zhang Liang was responding to her real thoughts. She was so happy that she felt like a fool when she heard the answer that she didn't have to die early.
【That's good, that's good. 】
Emperor Jingming glanced at Ye Shengxin. This was the second time she mentioned that she was a visitor from another world.
As for the fact that Zhang Liang could also hear Ye Shengxin's thoughts, he did not find it strange. He thought that Ye Shengxin had come here before he lost his memory.
So where is the other world she is in?
Emperor Jingming couldn't figure out whether it was the end of the sea or some other area.
"We can't stay here any longer. I'll take you to another yard." Once the killing array was activated, there was danger even within six feet of Ye Wanqiu. Hao Duanzhuang could no longer sit still and took the three of them to the roof of the next yard.
Almost the moment they landed, Ye Wanqiu's killing formation surrounded the yard where An and Wang were, and not even a fly could fly out.
The surrounding scenes were flickering, and half of the secret guards were killed. An Hewang knew that things were not going well. He was unwilling to give up and shouted to Ye Wanqiu:
"Madam Ye, I swear to heaven that your son's death had nothing to do with me. If you lie, you will be struck by lightning."
After saying this, he threw away his pride and knelt on the ground, kowtowed hard in the direction of Ye Wanqiu and the sky, not afraid of the thunderbolt at all.
An and Wang's expressions of being greatly wronged and frustrated did not seem fake. Ye Wanqiu stopped controlling the formation and looked hesitant.
In fact, An and Wang had a grudge against Ye Shengxin. If you check her words, you will know that they are not close to Ye Shengxin. The reasons why An and Wang dealt with her son were indeed a bit far-fetched.
But the formation would not go wrong, but looking at An and Wang's appearance, she had lived for nearly a hundred years and could tell the truth from the false.
Ye Wanqiu put her hand away, wondering if she was being used by someone.
In this situation, the prince stood up nervously. Is Anhe Wang going to clear his suspicion? This is not acceptable.
He was going around in circles trying to think of a way to help his father, thinking about how to frame King An He later, and he was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead.
Anhe Palace.
Emperor Jingming took in the current situation of the main courtyard, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of coldness.
Since he has found a scapegoat, he will not let him go no matter what until he dies.
His eyes darkened, and he asked Ye Xingxin: "Da Ya, will there be a thunderbolt tonight that will strike An He Wang?"
Ye Xingxin looked up at the sky and pouted, "How is that possible? The air is hot and dry today, and there is obviously no rain. How could there be a thunderstorm?"
"Besides, there's no way An and Wang could be that unlucky."
As she was about to finish her words, a bolt of lightning struck the roof where An and Wang were.
The lightning did not strike An and Wang, but it made all the hesitation Ye Wanqiu had disappear.
She hated it so much: "An He Wang, it's still you."
An He Wang: !!!
He was about to cry, he was so angry and hateful. At this moment, he wanted to expose the fact that God could not distinguish right from wrong.
How innocent he is!
The killing array started up again, and it was moving towards him at an even faster speed. King An He had completely given up on begging for mercy, and fiercely ordered, "Take out my sky rocket."
The sky rocket was something that An and Wang got by chance a year ago. It could make a big hole when it hit the ground.
No one knew who developed it, but after An Hewang saw the power of that thing, he knew it was a powerful weapon on the battlefield. Unfortunately, he didn't have many of them.
He had people make it according to his instructions, and there was only slight progress so far. In order to survive, he had to use up the only stock.
"Throw all these things at that bitch."
The box containing the sky rockets was brought to the secret guard and placed at his feet, and An and Wang gave decisive orders.
Afterwards, Ye Shengxin and Emperor Jingming saw a scene that they would never forget.
Rumbling explosions and flames rang out in the main courtyard of the palace. Under the moonlight, in the dust, several courtyards near the palace were razed to the ground in just a dozen breaths due to the power of formations and explosives.
The strong smell of blood was pungent and choking, and the blood dyed the air red. Emperor Jingming, Ye Shengxin and Zhang Liang held their noses and waited in place for a long time, but there was no movement from the other side.
After Hao Duanzhuang checked, he said with lingering fear: "It's gone, all gone, the bodies have been turned into pieces of meat."
"Speaking of which, what on earth did An Hewang take out that could actually make me and Ye Wanqiu like that? Tsk tsk, but it's good that the two evildoers died together, and the court can save a lot of effort."
As he spoke, he looked at Emperor Jingming who had requested to come tonight with admiration: "Big Duck, you are smart, otherwise it might be us and Ye Wanqiu who would die. Fortunately, it's fortunate."
Emperor Jingming grabbed Hao Duanzhuang and said cautiously, "After all, he is Mr. Zhang's master, so you should be more virtuous."
Zhang Liang smiled bitterly, "My master and I were destined to be together twenty years ago when she passed away. Otherwise, she would not have come to see me all these years."
"All I can do for her now is to collect her body again."
Ye Shengxin was happy that the enemy was gone, but considering that Zhang Liang didn't show it, he just said, "Let us go with you. You won't have a chance if the Imperial Guards come."
Ye Shengxin's words made Zhang Liang speed up the collection. Two quarters of an hour later, attracted by the movement here, Zhou Lin led a large number of royal guards and re-entered the Prince Anhe's Palace.
"Let's go quickly. I've taken most of the valuables here."
Hao Duanzhuang flew back, and Zhang Liang placed the identifiable bones in a wooden box. He took a last look at the place where his master was buried and nodded.
"We can go."
Ye Shengxin and the other two returned to the inn safely. In front of the Crown Prince of the Imperial Palace, he let out a long sigh and sat down on the couch with his body limp.
"Great, we've eliminated two more enemies."
He closed his eyes and stopped looking at the sky. He slowly fell asleep accompanied by the intermittent sounds coming from the sky.

Because Ye Shengxin was "working away from home", the news of the death of Ye Wanqiu, his biological mother, did not reach the Ye family.
Ye Zhengyao and Old Lady Ye thought that Ye Wanqiu could not bear the blow of losing her son and left the Ye Mansion on her own.
They were worried that she might commit suicide, so they sent many people out to look for her, but there has been no news so far.
Because the Ye Mansion held both a wedding and a funeral on one day, it became fodder and topic of conversation in the capital's gossip circles for several days. When people woke up this morning and chatted with their friends, the topic should have been still about the Ye Mansion.
But there was quite a commotion at Prince Anhe's mansion last night, and many of the people living nearby heard it.
In addition to various connections, by noon, almost half of the people in the capital knew the news that the Anhe Palace was almost wiped out last night.
Why almost?
Because Princess Anhe did not return home after entering the palace to request support yesterday, and Prince Anhe was still lying half-dead in prison, so the people in Anhe Palace were not completely dead.
"I wonder how the court will deal with this poor mother and son? Will it seek justice for King Anhe?"
These are the two issues that people are most concerned about after learning about this matter.
The court worked quickly and did not delay at all on this matter. As soon as the sun set today, the results of the treatment of King Anhe's wife and the crown prince were posted on the side of the city wall.
Emperor Jingming and his two companions, who had just returned from burying body parts outside the city, happened to be there. Seeing this, they turned around and went over to read the notice with the other people.
The notice only said that King Anhe was sentenced to the punishment of his entire clan for privately raising secret guards and intending to rebel, and all his property was confiscated.
The poor Princess An and the Crown Prince, who were the concerns of the people, were sentenced to be executed in the autumn.
Zhang Liang sighed: "Finally, the dust has settled."
Ye Xingxin nodded: "Yes, yes, I can finally have fun for a few days without any worries."
Zhang Liang tilted his head to look at her: "Where do you want to go? I have lived in the capital for decades, I am very familiar with this place, I can show you around."
Ye Xingxin rolled his eyes and said with a malicious smile, "Master Zhang is a wealthy man. I wonder if you would welcome me and Xiaoya, two poor friends, to your house for a chat?"
Zhang Liang:......
You shouldn't have responded with such a rude remark.
-
The prince checked the news records about Ye Wanqiu, and one of them caught his attention the most.
That is, after Ye Wanqiu got married, in order to have a child, she traveled thousands of miles to Song'an City, accompanied by Ye Zhengyao. The two stayed there for a month, and then soon after returning to Beijing, they had Ye Shengqing.
This article does not discuss why Ye Wanqiu traveled thousands of miles to have a child, but only talks about Song'an City, which is where Master Taishu lived in seclusion.
According to Lord Zhang, Master Taishu resurrected as Ye Wanqiu, and Ye Wanqiu went far away to have a child, so it seems that she had been in contact with Master Taishu for a long time.
And the real Ye Wanqiu had already become the target of Tai Shu's body-swapping.
The prince sorted out his thoughts and was very glad that this man had been law-abiding and had not caused any trouble in the twenty years since his resurrection. Now that he has passed away, it is good for everyone.
