772. Chapter 772 Xiliang Witch King

After Murong Ke learned that the queen mother had been hypnotized, he did not stay in Chengde Villa. He returned to Kyoto to meet Murong Zhan that day.

"What's the matter with the Queen Mother?" Murong Ke looked at Murong Zhan and asked, "I have never heard of anyone who can hypnotize except a witch king in Xiliang. The Queen Mother only lives in the palace on weekdays. Hypnotized?"

"See it?" Murong Zhan raised his eyebrows lightly and looked at him. When Murong Ke said that he was going to greet the queen mother, he guessed the result. With Murong Ke's shrewdness, it is impossible not to see the queen mother strange.

Murong Ke frowned and said, "I still know what kind of temperament the queen mother used to be, it is impossible to change so quickly, not to mention how she treated Yaoyao two years ago... Queen, isn't she still as close as a mother and daughter to seal Yao?" Is she the empress? Why do you hate the empress so much now? This is simply not the empress dowager's behavior."

Mo Rongzhan's thin lips evoked a faint smile, "How do you know that the Empress Dowager was as close as a mother and daughter to the Empress?"

"Otherwise, why would you make her a princess?" Murong Ke asked back, if the queen mother didn't treat Yaoyao as a daughter, how could she make Yaoyao a princess.

"The Empress Dowager was really good to Yaoyao before." Murongzhan nodded lightly, if it wasn't for Ye Yaoyao, the Empress Dowager and Yaoyao should get along very well in the palace now.

Murong Ke frowned, "What's going on?"

Murong Zhan took a deep look at Murong Ke. If it wasn't about Ye Zhen, he probably wouldn't have rushed back from Chengde Villa so soon, and he wouldn't be so eager to know what happened.

"I just care about the Queen Mother." Murong Ke lowered his eyes, knowing that Murong Zhan was doubting his intentions.

"The queen mother has been hypnotized. Although I don't know what method was used to hypnotize the queen mother, it should be related to studying." Murong Zhan said softly. Ye Zhen, he also understands the feeling of being unable to let go of liking that girl, as long as Murong Ke knows how to restrain himself, he will not target her because of it.

Murong Ke took a deep breath, "As far as I know, there is only one person in this world who can hypnotize, and that is the Witch King of Xiliang. It is impossible for the Witch King of Xiliang to enter the palace to hypnotize the Queen Mother."

"You know the Xiliang Witch King?" Murong Zhan raised his eyebrows and glanced at Murong Ke.

Seeing that there was no surprise on Murong Zhan's face, Murong Ke knew that he had already found out about this matter, "Do you know that the Queen Mother's hypnosis is related to the Xiliang Witch King?"

"As you said, it is impossible for the Xiliang Witch King to enter the palace to hypnotize the Queen Mother, let alone teach others to hypnotize the palace within a few days. I am curious, does the Xiliang Witch King have any apprentices?" That's what Murong Zhan is investigating now. If the Queen Mother's matter is related to the Xiliang Witch King, then what is the relationship between Ye Yaoyao and the Xiliang Witch King.

One is the daughter of a criminal who was sent to the wasteland, and the other is the famous Witch King in Xiliang. How did these two get involved?

"Apprentice?" Murong Ke frowned and shook his head, "The Witch King of Xiliang never accepts apprentices, and even the King of Xiliang doesn't pay attention to him who walks alone."

Murong Zhan also knew that the Xiliang Witch King had no apprentices, and not having any apprentices did not mean that he did not teach hypnotism to Ye Yaoyao.

"Aside from the Xiliang Witch King, who else knows how to hypnotize?" Murong Zhan asked.

Murong Ke shook his head, "If there is, the emperor should have known about it a long time ago."

Mo Rongzhan closed his eyes and pondered, he really couldn't find anyone who could hypnotize him, "Have you seen the Xiliang Witch King?"

"I haven't seen it before. Does the emperor want to find him to relieve the hypnosis for the queen mother?" Murong Ke asked.

"If you don't understand the hypnosis of the Queen Mother, you have seen what the Queen Mother is like." Mo Rongzhan said calmly.

Murong Ke said, "Then I should go to the Xiliang Witch King."

Murong Zhan looked at him in surprise, "You?"

"I have no friendship with him, but I still have a few friends in Xiliang, and I can always find a way to meet the Xiliang Witch King. As long as I can meet him, I can naturally persuade him to help." Murong Ke said in a low voice. The queen mother didn't have too deep feelings, and she just wanted to make life easier for the girl in the palace.

She is already a queen, and it is not enough to have the emperor's favor. If the queen mother always loathes her so much, her life will be very difficult.

Murong Zhan gave Murong Ke a heavy look, "Okay."

...

...

"Ma'am, this Guangchuxiu's boss was promoted by the queen mother herself. He is smooth and shrewd, and he doesn't make mistakes in things. It's just...too shrewd, and he never offends others in the palace." Aunt Pan explained the harem to Ye Zhen in a low voice. The characteristics of each of the four divisions.

"The empress dowager promoted herself?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice, "Master Gu will not move for the time being, but the vice-principal she picked cannot be used. This vice-principal usually bullies the little palace lady and even occupies someone who is Guang Chuxiu." Secretly withholding other concubines' meals and monthly silver, such a person will become the master in the future after becoming the master, so it will be even more difficult to suppress."

Aunt Pan nodded lightly, "Your Majesty is thinking about it."

"The deputy heads of the Accounting Department and the Rituals Department have to be selected separately." Ye Zhen said flatly, "The head of the Weaving Department... let her come and see Bengong."

"Your Majesty thinks there's something wrong with her?" Aunt Pan asked.

Ye Zhen smiled and shook her head, "No, it's just... I heard that she and Aunt Cheng used to be from the same village, and they have a very good relationship in the palace. I want to talk to her."

Aunt Pan immediately understood that Aunt Cheng used to be close to the Empress Dowager, she died inexplicably, and even Aunt Pan thought it was strange, but there were too many people who died for no reason in the palace, let alone those who were close to the Empress Dowager.

"My servant knows." Aunt Pan said in a low voice.

Ye Zhen said softly, "Send the rosters of these vice-principals to each department."

"Yes." Aunt Pan took the roster and retreated.

Ye Zhen wanted to meet the principal because she and Aunt Cheng were fellow villagers. When she was in the palace, Aunt Cheng took good care of her. She just wanted to know how Aunt Cheng died and whether she stayed behind before she died. What words.

Her words were passed on, and Master Yu came to see Ye Zhen soon.

Director Yu is a petite woman, about the same age as Aunt Cheng, "Master Yu, sit down and talk."

"Slaves don't dare." Master Yu said with lowered eyebrows, not daring to sit down and speak.

Ye Zhen glanced at her, "I heard that you and Aunt Cheng are from the same town?"

Chief Yu probably didn't expect the Empress to mention Aunt Cheng, and was taken aback for a moment, "...Yes, this servant and Aunt Cheng are from the same village."

"I used to be taken care of by Aunt Cheng many times in the palace. I was very sad to hear that she died unexpectedly. You and her are from the same village. Did she look for you before?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice.

"Go back to Madam, Aunt Cheng has found a servant girl." Master Yu said in a low voice.
