Chapter 292 Soul Lost
Lu Xuan originally thought that when he opened the door, he would see a house with traces of old things inside.
Otherwise, how could such a large amount of evil energy be condensed?
But I never expected that what appeared in front of me was a corridor.
Yes, after coming out, there were no longer any houses, but a corridor.
After passing the corridor, there is an open-air garden.
Jiang Xing was also a little surprised.
He had not been to the East Palace very often before, so he didn't know that this seemingly normal door actually led directly to the back garden.
Both of them saw the frustration in each other's eyes.
"It's okay, let's look for it slowly."
Jiang Xing gently soothed Lu Xuan's anxiety.
Lu Xuan grabbed the hem of his clothes as he was about to search around and said in a deep voice, "Let's go back first. I'll take care of the amulet first."
Seeing that she was serious, Jiang Xing nodded, followed her and closed the door again.
Just at the moment the door closed, another figure suddenly appeared under the rocks in the distance of the corridor and ran out from the corner of the garden at a high speed.
Lu Xuan returned to the prince's bedroom.
She slowly opened the amulet that had been rolled into shape, and strands of yin energy were constantly oozing out from the amulet.
Twisting the talisman paper with her fingers, she unfolded it and placed the back of the paper over the fire and gently burned it. With a "sizzling" sound, a burst of black smoke instantly floated out of the talisman, accompanied by an extremely bad smell.
"Oh, it's true." Lu Xuan sneered.
As the black smoke dissipated, Jiang Xing seemed to hear an extremely miserable scream, and then he fled in the air.
"The paper used for this amulet was soaked in corpse water and then dried. Although the amulet was later painted on it, the evil spirit within it is so strong that it has no protective effect at all. Instead, it has sealed the spirit of the ghost inside."
"It is precisely because the ghost's soul has been absorbing the prince's spiritual consciousness that he has gradually lost his mind."
Nanny Lan's face had already turned pale upon hearing this, and now her heart was instantly raised to her chest. Her hands and throat were shaking uncontrollably. "Then what should we do? Is there any hope for the prince?"
Lu Xuan gave her a soothing look, bit his finger hard, and chanted a spell.
Lu Xuan first began to draw the talisman again on the amulet. After waiting for the bright red blood to seep through the paper, he turned to the prince, pulled his arm away, and drew a new soul-fixing talisman on his arm with blood.
As the blood dried on the yellow paper, a golden light flashed, and in the blink of an eye, the yellow talisman suddenly caught fire.
As the yellow talisman burned, the black smoke that had been floating around seemed to be attracted by a force, screaming and unwillingly being gathered onto the burning blue flame of the talisman. Then, along with the yellow talisman, it was burned into smaller and smaller fragments by the flames, and finally turned into dust and smoke, instantly dissipating in the air.
At this time, the talisman in the prince's hand had been completed.
A golden light flashed, and the talisman instantly disappeared from his body.
Nanny Lan watched all this and forgot to blink, staring at the prince's reaction.
Lu Xuan and Jiang Xing also looked at him closely, hoping that he would regain his composure immediately.
After a long time, the prince's previously extremely confused eyes finally gradually became clear again.
But after he woke up, he looked at Lu Xuan and Jiang Xing, wanting to speak, but hesitated.
The words in his mouth were swallowed, and the prince clenched his hands nervously, his body shuddering slightly.
Jiang Xing naturally noticed the prince's abnormality, but he still walked forward and patted him on the shoulder with his big hand: "What? Don't you recognize your uncle?"
The prince twitched the corner of his mouth and called out in a low voice, "Uncle."
Then he looked at Lu Xuan and smiled stiffly, "A Xuan?"
Lu Xuan responded with a calm smile, but his heart skipped a beat and a bad premonition instantly came to his mind.
He should have been fine by now, but this was his reaction.
This is a situation where you have been frightened or stimulated.
She glanced at Jiang Xing, then slowly walked to the side of the Crown Prince, her expression somewhat gentle: "Your Highness, is there anything on your mind or grudge?"
The prince glanced at her and relaxed somewhat unnaturally, "Of course not."
As he spoke, he raised his hands and looked at them, then stood up and looked around the hall. Finally, he said with some joy, "My Lord, is this back to normal?"
Nanny Lan was so excited to see that the prince had finally recovered that she looked him over and over again. Then she nodded, choking back tears, "He's recovered, he's really recovered!"
"It was the princess who saved His Highness!"
Hearing this, the prince quickly bowed to Lu Xuan and said with a humble smile, "Thank you, Xuan!"
Although Nanny Lan was extremely happy seeing the prince like this, Lu Xuan and Jiang Xing understood that the prince's reaction was not normal at all.
When an ordinary person's mind suddenly becomes clear and his brain has the ability to think quickly, he will first be surprised and then happy.
But the prince didn't.
From the moment he first woke up, he seemed to be observing, and then thinking.
He didn't have a knee-jerk reaction.
These reactions are just the result of his careful consideration and weighing.
Jiang Xing frowned and was about to ask.
Lu Xuan gave him a wink.
She looked at him seriously, "Your Highness, do you have any grudges? Or do you have any grudges against me and the prince? Don't worry, you are Sister Siyu's child. Logically speaking, you should be my nephew. I will naturally not harm you."
"Not to mention the prince. Sister Siyu entrusted you to the prince before she left. He was very upset when he saw your previous state, but he would not harm you."
Lu Xuan watched the prince's expression closely, afraid of missing any subtle expression on his face.
When she mentioned that he was her nephew, the prince's expression changed slightly.
Then, as expected, the prince asked, "Are you the Queen Mother's sister?"
Then he smiled lightly, "No wonder he looks so similar to my mother. When I first saw him, I felt like I was seeing my mother."
Lu Xuan frowned, "You don't know who I am?"
Suddenly, she turned to look at Jiang Xing, then returned her gaze to the Crown Prince. "Didn't you send me a gift when the Duke's Mansion held the family recognition banquet? And you even wrote me a letter?"
"A letter?" The prince thought carefully. "The palace maids often say that I have intermittent dementia, but I remember every incident clearly. I have never written you any letters, and I didn't know that the Duke's Mansion had such an aunt."
Jiang Xing walked over and said, "Axuan is the daughter of General Shenwu. She and the emperor's sister-in-law do not have the same father or mother."
Hearing Jiang Xing's words, the prince suddenly understood, "I see, you should be about the same age as Yue He. I never call her aunt, so I'll just call you A Xuan."
Although the prince seemed to be chatting casually, Lu Xuan did not follow his thoughts.
Instead, they talked about another topic.
"The prince just saw me cast a spell on you, so he probably knows my abilities. I want to tell you about a situation that happened to you that I encountered in the past."
"Oh?"
Lu Xuan did not miss any of the prince's actions. She told the prince about how she encountered Yunpin's soul harassing her father. After she finished speaking, she saw that he looked unnaturally anxious.
"Your Highness's soul-destroying illness will never recur after my treatment this time. However, please do not confuse this with your poisoning."
"Your soul is lost. This is due to the use of mysterious magic, which has implanted a ghost through your hair crown. As for the poisoning, although it was not done by Concubine Yun, it really happened. Moreover, after the emperor ordered a thorough investigation and execution of Concubine Yun, someone poisoned you again. Otherwise, your body would not be in this state now."
Hearing Lu Xuan's words, the prince's eyes showed a complex and painful emotion.
Lu Xuan glanced at him and continued, "Before, I was curious why the Qiankun Five Qi Formation, which can scare away all ghosts, does not include Donggong. Now, I completely understand!"
