Murong Fenghe thought that with his identity, someone would introduce him to him, but he didn't expect that the scene would freeze inexplicably.

The tall man standing proudly in front of him should be King Xuan Dongming Ziyu. He is indeed as handsome and cold and arrogant as the legend says.

It's just...it seemed inappropriate for him to take the initiative to strike up a conversation.

It seems that King Xuan is hostile to him, the kind of hostility that robbed his mother-in-law.

How is this going?

Murong Fenghe had no choice but to secretly poke Shangguan Ruoli's arm and cough lightly to remind him of his presence.

Only then did Shangguan Ruoli think of this person, and he introduced him tepidly: "Your Majesty, this is Murong Fenghe. This time we were able to successfully carry out the Yunxia Palace and escape unharmed. Mr. Murong is indispensable to my credit."

The cooperation with him is not over yet, so he came back with us."

She moved away, making room for Murong Fenghe to appear, and introduced him to Dongming Ziyu.

As a result, Dongming Ziyu glanced at Shangguan Ruoli indifferently, and then said to Murong Fenghe who was kneeling on the ground: "The Murong family is good at mechanisms and calculations. I am honored to meet you today."

For Dongming Ziyu, more than two words is already a great favor to Murong Fenghe.

What does Dongming Ziyu want to do? Why did he say so many words to a stranger?

Shangguan Ruoli looked confused. Is this a compliment to Murong Fenghe?

Murong Fenghe's identity is not enough for him to praise, right?

Murong Fenghe also knew that King Xuan had always cherished his words like gold, and saying so many words to him was already a great honor to him.

The original worry on his face disappeared completely in an instant, which was extremely helpful to Dongming Ziyu's admiration for their Murong family.

"The prince is so ridiculous. We, the Murong family, are just craftsmen. How can we afford the prince's appreciation? I came here this time mainly because I have an agreement with this... little brother. It can be regarded as a request from the little brother.

, I hope the prince will make it happen."

"It doesn't matter. You should help me win the Yunxia Palace." Dongming Ziyu said politely, but his eyes were cold.

Little brother? Aren’t you a beauty? Why are you a little brother now?

"Then thank you so much, Your Majesty." Murong Feng kowtowed respectfully to express gratitude.

Dongming Ziyu nodded slightly, gave Shangguan Ruoli a cold look, and then got into the carriage.

Shangguan Ruoli coughed lightly and followed him into the carriage, but sat in the corner near the door, ignoring Dongming Ziyu, waiting for him to take the initiative to explain the affairs of the Lord Yunxia.

As for Dongming Ziyu, there was still gauze around his neck, but he didn't see the little thing coming over to ask for help, and he felt unhappy. He waited patiently for her to explain to him how she dealt with Murong Fenghe and what kind of cooperation they had.

The most important thing is what the two people said and did while locked in that stone room.

That's right, the secret guard returned after transporting the treasure and reported the whole story clearly.

So, both of them waited for the other to speak first, but neither said a word.

The group of people soon arrived at Linzhou Post House. As soon as Shangguan Ruoli got off the carriage, he saw two people approaching him eagerly.

One is Qu Xiaohan's attendant, and the other is Zhang Tiesheng.

"Eunuch, my master has a high fever!" This was what Qu Xiaohan's attendant said.

Zhang Tiesheng also said: "Please save Brother Zhao!"

Shangguan Ruoli walked inside and asked with a frown, "Where are the doctor and Xia Helin?"

Zhang Tiesheng said: "They can't find the cause of Zhaodi's disease."

Qu Xiaohan's attendant said: "I prescribed medicine, but it doesn't work!"

Shangguan Ruoli said: "Didn't I ask you to wipe his body with warm water and liquor to cool him down?"

"I wiped it, but it doesn't work." The attendant expressed his aggrievement.

Shangguan Ruoli said to Zhang Tiesheng, "Wait a moment, I'll go see other patients first."

Zhaodi probably has that kind of needle in his head, and I'm afraid it won't be easy to deal with, so I'd better go see Qu Xiaohan first.

Qu Xiaohan's fever was caused by inflammation of the wound. Because the wound was soaked in water, it did not recover well.

"Why don't you let the doctor check the wound again?" Shangguan Ruo left Qu Xiaohan's clothes, took the scissors, and prepared to remove the bandage and check the wound.

The attendant said: "The prince's doctor followed the prince out. Doctor Xia glanced at Zhaodi and rushed back to the plague area to treat patients. I didn't know until he left."

Dongming Ziyu is injured, and the doctor must follow him closely to attend to him.

Shangguan Ruoli cut off the bandage and was about to ask his attendants to help remove it.

A middle-aged man walked in and said, "Don't miss my father-in-law. Your Majesty asked me to come and help treat this young man's wounds."

Shangguan Ruoli raised his eyebrows. She would not believe that Dongming Ziyu was so kind and concerned about Qu Xiaohan's injury. He must not have wanted him to see another man's body.

Did you check him when you treated his wound earlier? Is it too late now?

But Shangguan Ruoli didn't bother and sat down by the window to rest.

The doctor examined Qu Xiaohan's wounds, removed the rotten flesh from the ulcerated areas, and re-disinfected and applied medicine.

Shangguan Ruoli asked his attendants to feed him light salt water and rub his body with strong wine to help cool him down.

Then, he took the doctor to see Zhaodi's injuries.

Shangguan Ruoli is still covered in mud and blood, but he is in no mood to wash and change his clothes.

When they arrived at the room where Zhang Tiesheng and Zhao Di were placed, they saw Zhao Di sitting motionless on a chair tied up like a wooden man.

Zhang Tiesheng explained: "She went crazy several times in the middle, so I could only tie her up like this."

Shangguan Ruoli stared at Zhaodi for a while, then suddenly walked behind her, brushed her hair aside, and examined her scalp carefully.

Zhaodi's hair was very dirty, and there were lice and other parasites in it, which showed that Shenjun Yunxia didn't regard them as human beings.

Shangguan Ruoli used tweezers to hold cotton and dipped it in warm water to clean the skin on the acupuncture points on her head.

Zhang Tiesheng was very curious about Shangguan Ruoli's movements, but his face was expressionless and he just watched and said nothing.

After watching for a while, Shangguan Ruoli began to frown because she found a small bulge in the acupuncture point on Zhaodi's scalp. It was not easy to find it without looking carefully.

Shangguan Ruoli took out the scalpel and cut open the bulge. Sure enough, there was a silver needle inside.

Zhang Tiesheng also noticed it and gasped, "What is this?"

Shangguan Ruoli said to him solemnly: "It's a silver needle, a silver needle with barbs. We found a large number of such people in Yunxia Palace, and after taking them out, they took out their brains..."

She doesn’t need to say the following words. If the brains are taken out, can people still survive?

Zhang Tiesheng's brows were furrowed tightly, and his eyes were filled with sadness and worry, "Is there no way to save him? What's the difference between this and the dead?"

Shangguan Ruoli pointed to the small bump on Zhaodi's head, "Did you see it? There are silver needles on these acupuncture points, there are as many as ten, and they are all two inches long."

It's like putting a net in people's brains, but not only do they not die, they can also be hypnotized and controlled.
