Chapter 287: Back to Taiji Mountain

en Nation."This general is ordered to assist the regent in solving the case."Having not seen Han Qing for many days, Yun An'an always felt that something had changed about him. She couldn't quite put...:

"Young Master Beichen, doesn't Miss Yun like this place"

Although Ap is not very bright, he has good eyesight.

From the moment I stepped into Taichi Mountain, I sensed a trace of sadness emanating from Yun Girl's body, along with a murderous intent that defied description.

Five years ago, Yun An'an was still the Princess Consort of Beichen Yi and came to Taiji Mountain with him.

"Oh, I see."

Now Ap understands what's going on.

This place is where Cloud Maiden's heart breaks.

"Young Master Beichen... May I ask a question"

"He said."

"Does the Cloud Maiden really like that person very, very much"

That person's given name is not something that commoners like us should mention.

If Miss Yun doesn't like that person, how could she be hurt so deeply

Therefore, the Cloud Maiden must have liked him suffer.

Even five years have passed, whether it's hate or resentment, the shadow of that person has always been in my heart.

Otherwise, since Beichen Young Master is so good to Cloud Miss, why doesn't Cloud Miss agree to his proposal

Upon hearing Apu's question, Beichen Lin fell silent for a moment, letting out a long sigh.

Although he wouldn't admit it, he could see Yun An An's feelings for Bei Chen Yi.

For the past five years, every time he guarded Yun An'an by her side and heard her calling out "Beichen Yi" in her sleep, his heart ached.

"Watch your noodles, they'll be mush if you overcook them."

"Oh my gosh! That was close!!"

Fortunately, Bei Chen Lin reminded me, or else I would have finished a bowl of hot noodles and it really would have turned into paste.

On the other side, there's Xianhezhen Garden.

Yun'an stood in the courtyard, extending her hand. Snowflakes fell one by one onto her fingertips. Perhaps she couldn't feel the temperature humans should have, as the snowflakes remained unmelted on her fingertips.

At this time, the sound of footsteps came from not far away.

Step by step, that figure gradually drew closer.

"Sister Yun"

The woman's voice hesitated, the figure before her looked exactly like Yun An'an, but that red hair wasn't her usual color.

Entering the Crane Garden was none other than the current master of Tiangji Pavilion, and also the missing-eyed girl from Taiji Mountain five years ago, Su Yuyan.

Five years had passed, the girl from back then had matured and become more stable. But when she saw that similar figure, she was still stunned for a moment.

"That's impossible."

Rejecting her own thoughts, Su Yuyan shook her head.

Yun An'an died five years ago in the northwest borderlands. How could she be resurrected

Hearing that someone had come to the Xianshe Garden, she found herself inexplicably drawn there.

Stepping back into the Crane Garden, Su Yuyan no longer disturbed the quiet of the woman in white with red hair.

Little did she know, had she taken one more step forward, she could have verified what her heart desired.

Yun An'an also did not turn back.

"Excuse me, miss. Whom are you looking for"

As Ap returned with a bowl of steaming hot soup noodles, he saw Su Yuyan coming out from the Crane Garden and kindly asked.

"It's nothing, just passing by."

As soon as the words left her mouth, Su Yuyan picked up her sword and left Xi'an Garden, disappearing into the distance.

"How strange! Entering the Crane Garden and claiming to be passing through Could it be... an assassin sent to kill Miss Yun"

Apu frantically imagined dangers, rushing to Yun An'an's side in three steps and two. He looked left and right, confirming that Yun An'an was safe and sound before finally relaxing.

Beichen Lin also returned to Xianhe Garden with his food box, and as soon as he entered, he saw Apu's alert expression.

"What are you looking at"

Just now, a very beautiful woman entered the Crane Garden. I'm worried she might be an assassin.

"Not an assassin."

In the courtyard, Yun An'an, who was sitting on a bench eating a bowl of hot noodles, spoke up, telling the two that the visitor was not an assassin but someone from the Tiangji Pavilion.

"Su Yuyan"

"Well, it is her."

Who is Su Yu yan

Unknowingly, Apu took a bite of the cake and asked Su Yuyan who was she and what was Tianjige.

"The Tianjige is a secret intelligence organization in the Jianghu, responsible for assassination and intelligence gathering."

Speaking of this, a hint of suspicion flashed in Beichen Lin's eyes.

"The Tiangji Pavilion isn't supposed to have retired from the world, how come it's appearing in Beichen Kingdom again"

Three years ago, Tiangjige suffered heavy losses. The old master died an unnatural death, and Tiangjige was almost completely reshuffled.

Su Yanhe's daughter, Su Yuyan, inherited the position of head of Tiangji Pavilion. She led Tiangji Pavilion into seclusion within Tianqiong Mountain and since then, she has no longer meddled in any affairs.

"It's possible someone paid a hefty sum to get them out of retirement, or perhaps something involving the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion forced them back into the world."

Yun An'an was speculating on the reason Su Yuyan appeared at Taiji Mountain, while Apu beside her was completely baffled.

The Cloud Maiden and the Northern Star Young Master's words, when separated into individual characters, each carried meaning he understood. Yet, when those same characters came together, they formed an undecipherable script.

He'd still rather eat his cookie quietly.

It snowed all night and stopped the next day.

Taiji Mountain attendants arrived at the Xianhe Garden to inform the three people that there would be a banquet and singing and dancing in the mountains tonight, but the three people had left the garden long ago.

Horses' hooves drummed on the road leading to the capital.

Yun An'an leaned half against a fur armchair, reading a book. Bei Chenlin was looking at some information sent to his hand, while Apu was still driving the carriage.

"Look."

Beichen Lin handed a piece of information from his hand to Yun An'an. It was written on the top, exactly the information about Tiangji Pavilion.

Her phoenix eyes lifted slightly, gazing at the words on the white paper. Yun Anan smiled faintly.

"As expected."

As she had thought.

The Heavenly Machine Pavilion, commissioned by the Beichen Kingdom, is searching for the Star River. Unbeknownst to them, the Star River is located on Phoenix Immortal Island.

What is he looking for in the galaxy Does he want to unify the universe or something

There was a hint of sarcasm in his words. Yun An'an changed her position and continued reading.

"The river of stars can reveal heavenly secrets and predict the future, but people are unaware that the celestial river they see is merely an ancient book of divination left behind by ancients."

The stars were carelessly thrown onto the floor in the library of Phoenix Immortal Island. They were nothing more than divination charts predicting the future, similar to the Book of Predictions.

He had also looked at the starry sky, but its content was too obscure and difficult to understand. So he just piled it on the ground and stopped paying attention.

Beichen Lin put down the intelligence in his hand, stretched lazily, and asked Yun An'an, "After arriving in Beichen City, who do you want to visit first"

We're almost at the capital city. Let's go see Yun Qianshan first. How about Old Wangye and Dean You

"First, go get the roots of the Xianyunzhi flower. By the way, blow up the ancestral graves of the Beichen family, how about it"

A faint smile appeared at the corner of her lips, on the white sand, her blood-red eyes were cold and aloof.

Beichen, the capital city.

The carriage slowly drove past the city gates of the capital.

Stepping back into Kyoto after five long years, a familiar yet strange scene flickered before my eyes, involuntarily making my heart skip a beat.

Yun An'an closed her eyes, emptying her mind. When she reopened them, the blood in her eyes was replaced by nothing but hatred, a bone-deep, heart-wrenching hatred.

It was night, and snow began to fall.

A deafening roar echoed from the imperial mausoleum on the western outskirts of Beichen City, reverberating throughout the capital.

Accompanied by a sky-high fire, the entire imperial tomb collapsed.

All the guards who protected the imperial tomb were killed or injured, none survived.

"What is this"

Beichen Lin looked at the white plant root, only the size of his palm, in Yun An'an's hand. Could this be the root of the Xianyunzhi flower

"Immortal cloud orchid root."

It was fortunate that when she was imprisoned in the depths of the imperial mausoleum by Beichen Han, she only ate the leaves and flowers of Xianyunzhi and did not uproot the entire plant.

Otherwise, this world would probably never find a second Xianyunzhi again.

The news of the Imperial Tomb's explosion spread through Kyoto in an instant.

Rumors are spreading everywhere, wondering who had the audacity to blow up the imperial tombs of the Beichen Kingdom. Who could possibly have such courage to desecrate the ancestral graves of the royal family

"Yesterday, I personally saw the flames of the imperial tomb reach for the sky, wishing to burn the night itself."

“Yesterday, I heard a loud booming sound. Soon after, I saw columns of guards marching towards the fire from the street, numbering in the thousands.”

"That's right, my family's guard was on duty at the time. He said that the scene was very chaotic back then, and when people died, there was nothing left."

"What are you trying to do Why would you want to blow up someone's ancestral grave out of the blue"

Who knows, maybe there's some deep-seated grudge, or otherwise, why would someone do something so despicable

One person after another recounted what had happened last night. Some even said that the current emperor had killed too many people, and the ancestor of the Beichen family was so angry that he blew himself up.

"I wouldn't say that, I don't want to die."

Inside the Rui's Prince Residence.

When Old Lord Wang learned that the imperial tomb had been razed to the ground, he led the soldiers of Rui Prince's Mansion to the place where it originated.

By the time you get there, it will be too late.

Qi Lao Wangye was furious and cursed the other person's ancestors for eighteen generations.

"Who the hell is so ruthless, do they have any morals, to blow up my ancestral grave!"

"Damn it! Don't let this old man catch you, or I'll tear you to pieces."

"********"

The following 10,000 words of profanity are omitted.

At this time, in the capital city of Beichen Nation, Tianxiang Building guest room.

Yun Anan, who was eating hot and sour noodle soup, sneezed.

"Achoo!"

Are you feeling cold

Bei Chen Lin reached out to touch Yun An An's forehead, his eyes full of worry.

It's okay, I don't have a fever.

"When you go out later, wear more clothes. The weather in Beichen Country is damp and cold. If you're not careful, you might catch a cold."

You're becoming more and more like your master.

Sniffing, Yun An'an complained about Bei Chen Lin's nagging.

As the two were speaking, voices from outside the door startled them. It was Apu and another person.

"Sorry, sorry."

Apu apologized, and the other party, after a few drinks, looked him up and down, feeling like they had met somewhere before.

"Who are you Apu from Upper Li Village"

When his name and home address were called out, Ap turned to face the old man but couldn't remember where he had seen him before.

"Excuse me, sir, who are you"

"I am Lao Dao, the temple priest of the Moon-Viewing God Tree in Wangyue City, Xiling Country! Burp!"

Another burp, a gray-blue long robe old Taoist priest held a wine jug, patted Apu's shoulder with his big hand.

"I didn't expect that you and Miss Yun would really come to Beichen Kingdom. I was worried about this, but it seems it really happened."

"So it's Dao Ye, you came back to Beichen Nation"r and RongrongBut even if she were willing, Beichen Yi would not agree."An'er, don't make a fuss."Beichen Yi gently took Yun Annan's hand, his deep eyes looking at her, and shook his head."Uncle, trus...
