Chapter 29

TRANSLATED BY MYPEN_22

According to Qu Liu Goblet, in order to make corpse-transforming water, one must have Hidden Marrow Sand. As far as he knew, this hidden marrow sand was extremely rare and only two copies existed in the Imperial Hospital. Therefore, it was only necessary to check this Hidden Marrow Sand at the Imperial Hospital.

    Without delay, Yan Shi set off for the Imperial Hospital. When he arrived at the Imperial Hospital, one copy of the Hidden Marrow Sand had indeed disappeared.

    The envoy of the Imperial Hospital knelt on the ground and shivered in fear: "Your Highness, Your Highness. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

    Yan Shi laughed coldly, "You deserve to die, but I ask you, where is the person who is in charge of the hidden marrow sand?"

    "Already, someone has been sent to find them." The courtier wiped the cold sweat that had appeared on his forehead, "Please, please, Your Highness, wait for a moment."

    In a short time, someone came to report that the person had been found, or to be precise, the corpse had been found, and he had died after taking poison.

    Yan Shi ordered his men to guard all the gates of the Imperial Hospital and forbade anyone inside to go out. He wanted to check the people in the hospital one by one, but in fact the check was not real, it was real to lure the snake out of the hole.

    Although the medicinal boy responsible for guarding the hidden marrow sand was dead, he did not know who was outside to meet him. Now he is making such a big fuss, just to show those people that he has found a clue. Now that he has blocked off the entire Imperial Hospital, those outside do not know what is going on inside and will inevitably come to pry for information.

    Yan Shi also sent Sang Yu with several of his secret guards to ambush around the Imperial Hospital. At this time, it is up to the person who can't hold his breath first.

    In the afternoon, Hua Ling and Qu Liu Goblet were the only ones left in Ruiying's residence, except for the servants.

    Yan Shi gave Qu Liu Gobao a small courtyard and wanted to give him a few more servants to serve him, but he refused.

    Qu Liu Goblet took off the original plaque and put it up as "Medicine House".

    When he first arrived here, he had a lot of things to do, so he hummed a little song as he took things out of the medicine chest one by one.

    The door creaked open and a clear male voice came in: "Keep an eye on your treasures, don't let them wander around."

    Without looking up, Qu Liu Goblet said, "Where is the golden toad you said you wanted to give me?"

    "You are too late, the golden toad will not be delivered." Hua Ling spread his hands out and sat with an expression of I am helpless too.

    "Don't, little bell how can you do that." Qu Liu Goblet immediately jumped up from his chair and came in front of Hua Ling with a pleasing face, "I've promised to be good, you can't go back on your promise. I came late because of you, you are not easy to get married I must show something, but I went to prepare a gift for you, look at ..."

    "If it's one of those bugs don't take it outside." Hua Ling's words caused Qu Liu Goblet's hand holding the small porcelain vase to pause.

    Qu Liu Goblet put that porcelain vase on the table again, "This is what you said you didn't want, but that golden toad is what you promised me, you can't keep your word."

    "It depends on my mood." Hua Ling sat on the other chair and tapped his fingers, "Pour the tea."

    "Okay, okay." Qu Liu Goblet was busy running to pour the tea, and when he drank it, he asked again with bated breath, "My golden toad ..."

    "Did you encounter any trouble along the way?" Hua Ling suddenly changed his hangdog look and asked in a serious manner.

    When Qu Liu Goblet saw his appearance, he also instantly became serious: "I did not encounter any trouble, I only pretended to be a medicine seller, and no one noticed me."

    Hua Ling nodded, "What was that woman about today? Did you find her?"

    "No, I arrived in this imperial city a few days ago and have been trying to figure out how to get into the royal residence." Qu Liu Goblet said, "Then I happened to meet that woman tearing with her husband in the street, and I gave her the love silk compulsion in a moment of weakness. You know what happened afterwards. Although tearing with a woman on the street tarnished my handsome and dashing image, I was able to enter the Prince residence successfully, so it was not a loss. Only someone as clever as me could turn a bad thing into a good thing."

    Hua Ling slapped him across the face, "Let's see how thick your cheek is."

    "My cheek is no thicker than yours," Qu Liu Goblet laughed wistfully, "Little Bell

    I really didn't expect you to be so good at pretending to be a 'good girl', I'm impressed. I'm impressed," Qu Liu Goblet called out a few times just like Hua Ling called out to Yan Shi.

    Almost as soon as Hua Ling's foot hit the leg of the chair, Qu Liu Goblet jumped up from the chair and threw a punch towards Hua Ling's face.

    Hua Ling didn't dodge or budge: "Golden toad ah--" the tone of his voice rose, and there was a slight charm in his voice.

    Qu Liu Goblet's fist immediately turned into a palm and doggedly patted Hua Ling's shoulder: "There's dust here, I'll give you a pat, give you a pat."

    Hua Ling nodded in satisfaction, "Bring your face over again, let me punch a few times to relieve the boredom."

    "I'll go!" Qu Liu Goblet immediately covered his face with his hand, "I say little bell don't go too far, don't think that I can let you do whatever you want with a mere golden toad. But if you want to fight, don't fight so that people can see it, after all, I am a person who wants to save face." The first words of Qu Liu Goblet were spoken in a righteous manner, the later he spoke the more flattering he became, and finally he even put his own face in front of Hua Ling.

    Hua Ling smiled and unceremoniously extended a fist, waved it in front of him, and then retracted it. Just when Qu Liu Goblet thought he wouldn't hit him again, his stomach suddenly hurt, and he looked down to see that it was the same hand Hua Ling had used just now.

    Hua Ling smiled in search of a fight: "No thanks."

    Qu Liu Goblet rubbed his stomach: "I've been beaten, let's get down to business. Let me ask you who is that beautiful looking gentleman?"

    Hua Ling picked up a grape and put it in his mouth, "My brother."

    Qu Liu Goblet: "..."

    "Except for the Prince."

    "That's me."

    Quliquid: "..."

    Qu Liu Goblet had to change his words again when he begged Hua Ling: "The one who has been following the Prince, the one in white."

    "Ah - I see -" Hua Ling looked like he had a sudden realization, Qu Liu Goblet's eyes instantly let out light, a million times expectant, Hua Ling glanced at him and stood up from his chair and He glanced at him and stood up from his chair and walked out the door, "But why should I tell you?"

    "You bitch! Bitch!" Qu Liu Goblet casually picked up a medicine bottle and struck it at Hua Ling's back, but unfortunately, it did not touch him at all.

    When it was almost dark, Yan Shi, who was still at the Imperial Hospital, waited for someone to come - the Minister of Penalty.

    After the two sides met, the Minister of Justice opened up and said he was here to take over the disappearance case.

    Yan Shi's eyebrows knitted slightly: "The Da Lisi investigates cases and the Ministry of Justice reviews them, this has always been the rule. I wonder what you mean by this, Lord Zhao?"

    The Minister of Justice, named Zhao Wenju, was a member of King Zhaoge's party and was subordinate to Yan Shì in the court. It's just as well to leave it to this official."

    "Then I'll be grateful to Lord Zhao," Yan Shi surprisingly agreed very quickly, "Let's go."

    The people from the Da Lisi quickly withdrew from the Imperial Hospital, and those from the Ministry of Punishment soon came in.

    "Ah, brother you're back so early!" As soon as Hua Ling saw Yan Shi, he fluttered his wings like a happy bird and ran over, "Did you get the results of the case? Have you found out who the murderer is?"

    "Not yet," the moment he saw Hua Ling, the gloom that lingered in Yan Shi's heart suddenly and miraculously dissipated, "Let's put this case aside for now, I have other things to do with Qingyue tomorrow."

    "Brother has something to do with Qing Yue again," Hua Ling wilted a little, "can you take me with you then?"

    Yan Shì thought about the fact that it was a personal matter, so he agreed.

    The following day, in the carriage.

    Hua Ling picked the curtain to look outside, the carriage had already moved. He lowered the curtain and asked Yan Shi, who was sitting opposite him, "Aren't we going to wait for Qing Yue Gongzi?"

    Yan Shi smiled, "It's rare to come out with Mingting, so I won't take him with me."

    Hua Ling blushed a little and lowered his head, "Brother-"

    After about a quarter of an hour, there was an immediate pause.

    Hua Ling dismounted from his horse and looked at the plaque in front of him and read, "The Chapter House?"

    "Brother what are we doing here?" Hua Ling was busy squeezing Qingji, who was about to help Yan Shi off the carriage, aside and darted to extend his own hand to help him down.

    Yan Shi looked at the door of the mansion and gave a meaningful smile, "It's time for someone else to sit in this position of Minister of Penalties."

    Qingji explained his intention to the concierge of the Zhang House, who was busy entering the house to report. In a short time, the house opened and two handsome young gentlemen emerged from inside.

    The two men immediately bowed when they saw Yan Shi and said, "I didn't know that Your Majesty and Your Highness were here, so I hope you will forgive me."

    "There is no need to be polite," Yan Shi said, "I would like to ask Lord Zhang and Lord Shen not to be offended by this Prince rashness in coming here today."

    Zhang Yuxin laughed, "What are you talking about, Your Majesty, please come in quickly."

    "Huh? It's you?" Hua Ling suddenly said to the young gentleman who was following Zhang Yuxin.

    Shen Shenbi took a closer look at Hua Ling for a moment, "You're the one in the imperial garden?"

    Hua Ling nodded repeatedly, with a kindness like meeting an old friend in another country: "It's me, it's me."

    Yan Shi smiled, "Mingting, you know each other?"

    Hua Ling explained, "That day when we were enjoying the flowers in the imperial garden, this young gentleman was also there and we had a chance to meet."

    Perhaps because he was also a male wife, Hua Ling was happy to see Shen Shen Bi and spoke to him happily.

    When they arrived at the lobby and both parties were seated, Yan Shi looked at Shen Shen Bi and said, "I wonder what Lord Shen thinks of Lord Zhao?"

    Shen Shen Bi snorted, "A mere straw man."

    A smile curled around Yan Shi's lips, "Then would Lord Shen like to take his place?"

    Zhang Yu Xin was in the Hanlin Academy, while Shen Shen Shen Bi was the head of the Ministry of Justice.

    Now the battle between King Zhaoge, King Ding and King Mu for the throne had been laid out in the open. The majority of the ministers in the court will choose one of the princes to stand, but Zhang Shen Fufu has not chosen any of them, and Yan Shi has had contact with them before.
