Chapter 189 Lingyu successfully recognized its master
Wang Xinyao looked at Zhao Haoxuan firmly and analyzed in a serious tone, "Based on the current situation, I think the mastermind behind your sister is most likely the scheming Concubine Yin!"
Ever since she learned that Gou Chunmei and Concubine Yin had a close relationship, Wang Xinyao's doubts about this matter became more and more serious.
She had known Gou Chunmei very well since she was a child, but in just a few years, Gou Hongying had risen from a mere seventh-rank county magistrate to the second-rank position of Minister of Personnel.
Wang Xinyao would never believe that there was no shameful dealings or tricks involved!
"Logically speaking, Concubine Yin should have no motive to murder my grandmother!" Zhao Haoxuan began to mutter to himself.
"Perhaps... she blames the Empress Dowager for not advising my father to enthrone her as the Queen. If this is really the reason, it is barely understandable!" Zhao Haoxuan frowned unconsciously and fell into deep thought.
After a while, he continued, "And my uncle, he's my grandmother's biological son. He's extremely filial, so logically, there's no way he would plot to harm her!"
At this moment, Wang Xinyao, who was standing by, suddenly recalled the plots of TV dramas that she often saw in modern times. Scenes like the prince being secretly replaced and the cat substituting for the prince came to her mind.
So, she couldn't hold back her inner impulse and blurted out, "Oh, maybe this uncle isn't your real uncle at all?"
"Not a biological child?" Upon hearing this, Zhao Haoxuan was struck by lightning. He stood there in a daze, his face full of disbelief!
Then, he frowned, closed his eyes slightly, and seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, slowly falling into deep and long thoughts.
As time passed, the air around seemed to freeze, and it was so quiet that it made people feel a little uneasy.
Finally, after a long while, he came back to his senses as if waking from a dream, and let out a long breath.
Zhao Haoxuan said, "There's a rather strange phenomenon: every prince is accompanied by a certain number of secret guards as protection."
"I used to have secret guards, but they all disappeared after I was thrown into the Heavenly Prison. I guess they were secretly dealt with by my uncle."
"Even my uncle, who has always been indifferent to state affairs and has been living a carefree life, has twenty well-trained secret guards guarding his residence.
"But, as far as I know, the emperor's grandfather has never equipped the emperor's uncle with a secret guard!" Zhao Haoxuan said this and sighed deeply.
Hearing this, Wang Xinyao couldn't help but be shocked. She had only mentioned it casually, never expecting that there was something suspicious going on.
She thought to herself, "Could it be that there really is some unknown secret hidden here?"
So, she calmed herself down and continued, "Brother Zhao, this is just our private speculation after all. As for the truth behind this matter, I'm afraid only the Empress Dowager, who lives deep in the palace, can know the inside story!"
After she finished speaking, she seemed to suddenly remember something important and quickly added, "Brother Zhao, why don't you try dripping your blood onto this spirit jade? Maybe something unexpected will happen, and maybe even make the spirit jade recognize its master!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Haoxuan immediately pushed the jade to Wang Xinyao and said, "Xinyao, since this is a special gift from the Empress Dowager, you should keep it well!"
"No, Brother Zhao," Wang Xinyao shook her head gravely, then explained, "I've only ever had this piece of jade once. It's a precious item passed down from the ancestors of your royal Zhao family, bestowed upon our descendants for generations to come!"
After hearing what Wang Xinyao said, Zhao Haoxuan showed a hint of hesitation on his face.
He frowned slightly, thought for a long time, and finally made up his mind and gently cut his finger with his fingertips.
As a tiny wound appeared, a drop of bright red blood oozed out, slowly dripping down and accurately splashing onto the mysterious spiritual jade.
At that moment, something amazing happened. The previously calm and peaceful spirit jade suddenly emitted a dazzling array of multicolored light, which blossomed like fireworks, becoming increasingly dazzling.
The light continued to spread and grow, and after just a short while, a huge light hole was formed.
This light hole produced a powerful suction force, like an invisible giant hand, which tightly grabbed Wang Xinyao and Zhao Haoxuan and quickly sucked them all into the spiritual jade!
When the two were caught in it, they felt dizzy and the scene in front of them was blurred.
This feeling only lasted for a while and then slowly subsided.
When they opened their eyes again, they were shocked to find that they were both in the wonderful world inside the spiritual jade.
Wang Xinyao and Zhao Haoxuan took a deep breath, trying to calm their inner turmoil. They slowly opened their eyes and began to carefully observe the surrounding environment.
They found that the space was filled with a spiritual energy that was so rich that it was almost indissoluble, as if every breath could invigorate people.
Such abundant spiritual energy is simply a dream paradise for practitioners. Practicing here will surely achieve twice the result with half the effort and make amazing progress.
As they looked around, they saw a fertile land under their feet with many herbs growing in it.
Wang Xinyao widened her eyes, her face full of surprise.
She never imagined that this seemingly ordinary space actually hid so many precious medicinal herbs.
You know, even just one herb like this is an extremely rare and priceless treasure for alchemists.
Now, they grow here in patches like weeds, which is incredible!
At this moment, their attention was attracted by an ancient and magnificent palace in the center of Lingyu.
The palace stands tall and majestic, appearing particularly mysterious and solemn in the entire space.
"This... is this the legendary Lingyu Space?" Zhao Haoxuan couldn't help but exclaimed in disbelief, his face full of disbelief.
Both of them looked ahead curiously, then took a step forward and walked towards the palace.
As they gradually approached the palace gate, the tightly closed door seemed to sense their arrival and slowly opened automatically.
The scene inside the door appeared before the two of them. The table was filled with all kinds of rare treasures, which were so dazzling that it was hard to take your eyes off them.
There are even many ancient books piled up like mountains, exuding a sense of antiquity.
