Chapter 156 Yin Object
"So how is Miss Liu's condition now?" Yi Qianhuan asked.
Zhang: "It can only be said that it is sometimes good and sometimes bad. When Rou'er is not ill, she looks as gentle and well-behaved as usual. But once she is ill, she will yell and scream like a madman. Now no one in our family dares to provoke her. We give her whatever she wants. Finally, she is under control for the time being."
"I feel that Miss Liu is not just ill." Princess Lianhe's expression was full of worry. She looked at Yi Qianhuan beside her and said, "Madam, I have met a patient like Miss Liu in the border area before. That patient tried many ways to cure her but failed. In the end, it was a famous local wizard who cured her. I remember that the witch doctor said that this disease was actually a form of evil spirits, and only a mystic or wizard could cure it."
"The scope of being possessed by evil spirits is very wide. It can happen when a person collides with something unclean. However, the situations of being possessed by evil spirits are different, so the methods of treatment are also different. I need to see Miss Liu's condition first before I can make further judgment." Yi Qianhuan quickly put down the tea bowl in his hand while speaking.
"Then please trouble the Crown Prince's wife to help take a look at Rou'er. As long as you can cure Rou'er, our master will definitely thank you very much!" Zhang seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw.
When she saw Yi Qianhuan nodded, she immediately took Yi Qianhuan to the backyard.
Yi Qianhuan followed Zhang in silence through the corridor and found that the coldness that was rolling around became more obvious the further he went into the courtyard.
When they arrived at an intersection, Yi Qianhuan clearly felt a gust of cold wind blowing.
All his limbs felt icy cold. Yi Qianhuan looked in the direction of the cold wind and asked, "Miss Liu lives in Hanshuang Courtyard?"
"Yes. The Crown Prince's wife can even see this?" Zhang knew that this was Yi Qianhuan's first time in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and was surprised that Yi Qianhuan knew everything about this place.
Yi Qianhuan hummed, then walked forward and gently stroked the plaque hanging outside the Frost Courtyard.
A half-person-high plaque was fixed upright outside the crescent-shaped stone gate of Hanshuang Courtyard. Yi Qianhuan touched it and felt something was wrong.
"When was this plaque placed here?" Yi Qianhuan's phoenix eyes flashed with coldness as he asked word by word.
Seeing Yi Qianhuan's cold face, Zhang replied apprehensively, "This plaque has been here for a long time. When Rou'er was young, she was weak, so we invited a mystic to look at it. We specially found a piece of thirty-year-old peach wood and carved the name of this courtyard on it to ward off evil spirits..."
"But this piece of wood is not peach wood, but locust wood. Locust wood belongs to Yin, and ordinary people cannot touch it casually. According to what my lady said, Miss Liu has always been weak, and the yard where she lives has been led to the Yin of Yin and Yang by this piece of locust wood. Over time, her body and mind have been greatly affected." Yi Qianhuan said as he pulled out a wolf-tooth dagger from his waist.
"What is the Crown Prince's wife going to do?" Princess Lianhe saw the sharp dagger and her beautiful brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
"The locust tree is most afraid of things with golden yang energy. The dagger in my hand is carved from wolf teeth, which can break the yin energy of the locust tree. However, this is only a temporary effect."
Yi Qianhuan said this and first used a dagger to carve some simple talismans on the plaque.
"The Prime Minister's wife needs to send a strong man to take down the plaque at midnight tonight, and then expose it to the sun at noon every day for the next three days. By then, the plaque will crack. Then the wife and the Prime Minister can burn it together, and the influence of the locust wood on Miss Liu can be completely eliminated."
After the talisman was carved, another breeze blew by, but it was far less chilling than before.
Zhang watched Yi Qianhuan finish all this, her face still stiff: "So Rou'er felt unwell because of this plaque?"
Zhang didn't know who replaced the plaque when they were not paying attention, but when she thought that her precious daughter had ended up in such a miserable state because of someone's conspiracy, she wanted to pull out the culprit and skin him alive!
"It's not just because of this plaque. The negative energy in this courtyard is so heavy. It should be that Miss Liu was contaminated by something unclean outside and brought that thing home, and this dirty thing was nourished by the locust wood." Yi Qianhuan said as he walked into the Hanshuang Courtyard.
Princess Lianhe supported Zhang and comforted her softly, "Don't worry, Madam. The Crown Prince's wife is here. She will ensure that Miss Liu will be safe."
Zhang nodded gratefully.
As soon as Yi Qianhuan entered the Frost Courtyard, he found that some of the flower trees and fruit trees in the courtyard were dying.
Now is clearly the time when the flower and fruit trees are sprouting new buds, but the branches of these trees are completely bare, without a single green leaf.
But on these branches, there are special knots made of cloth hanging.
These knots are intertwined and coiled together. From a distance, they look like small hands clenched into a string and are difficult to untie.
Seeing Yi Qianhuan looking at the knots, Zhang explained, "These are the ones that Rou'er had to hang here. The Prime Minister and I also felt uneasy when we first saw these knots. But every time we wanted to take them away, Rou'er would get very angry, and we had no choice but to obey her."
"Madam, is there anything special about these knots?" Princess Lianhe observed the knots carefully and did not dare to touch them casually.
"We need to wait until we meet Miss Liu before we discuss this." Yi Qianhuan said, looking at the room with the strongest yin energy in the entire yard.
Before entering the room, Yi Qianhuan clearly heard the chirping sounds coming from the room.
After pushing open the door, Yi Qianhuan first felt a foul odor coming towards him.
Looking around, the room was full of birds, including sparrows, starlings, parrots, nightingales and orioles. Some of these birds were stuffed in cages, while others were flying around.
Yi Qianhuan only took a cursory look and realized that the bird droppings were everywhere. The bed, the table, and the floor were almost covered with a layer of them. The strong stench was so strong that it could almost smoke away a person's nose.
Zhang was the first to react. She hurried to her daughter's side and clapped her hands. "Oh, kid, why are you doing this? Stop it! Someone, didn't I tell you not to let the young lady have so many birds and beasts in the room? Hurry up and drive all these beasts away!"
"They are not beasts, they are all my good friends. Mother, I can talk to them. Listen, my good friends are greeting you." Muttering with a smile, Liu Qingrou placed a crow in her hand in front of Zhang.
