The princess thought about it carefully, then she said, “About a month. The Taoist master from the Yuxu Temple said that if you don’t come back by the middle of this month, he would be the only one to solve it. He said that this soul detachment disease should not be delayed. It is best to solve it within 49
days. Otherwise, she can’t be saved.”
Xie Qiao felt that other than Zhao Jialing, everyone else in Prince Yong Lin’s Residence was sensible.
Putting everything else aside, just the attitude of obeying the “doctor’s orders” was sensible.
“The human body has three souls and seven spirits. The two souls of heaven and earth are usually wandering outside. It’s just that… to put it in layman’s terms, the Earthly Ethereal Soul usually won’t go too far. It hides by one’s side like a protective layer, allowing people to observe their surroundings and
think about their choices. For Young Lady Zhao, it’s because her Earthly Ethereal Soul is too far away from the body that her brain is cloudy.” Xie Qiao said it casually, “There’s no need to worry too much. We just need to find her Earthly Ethereal Soul.”
“But… Where can we find it?” The princess was still worried.
“We’ll have to ask the maids in your house when Young Lady Zhao starts to show signs of abnormality. Three days, where did she go during these three days? We’ll go through them one by one.
“Generally speaking, the three souls are one. The Earthly Ethereal Soul alone doesn’t have the ability to go too far. It mostly stays in the places it has passed by,” Xie Qiao added.
In fact, Zhao Jialing’s situation could be said to be lovesick.
According to the princess, she had seen Wen Lancheng get married and then started acting abnormally.
It was very likely that she was too obsessed, so her Earthly Ethereal Soul carried out the order.
In other words… the possibility of it following Wen Lancheng was actually… very high.
Of course, it could also be some other accident, such as it accidentally encountering a soul-luring dharma instrument and being accidentally lured away.
Or perhaps, she was frightened and her Earthly Ethereal Soul did not have time to follow her when she ran away and was lost halfway
“A maid… Yes, my daughter’s personal main servant girl, Huan‘er, follows her every day. No matter what my daughter does or where she goes, she Inows. As she often needs to report to me, she remembers these things clearly. I’ll get her to come over now. Master, take her around and look for her Earthly
Ethereal Soul?” The princess seemed to be very careful.
She was afraid that Master Mo would not be willing to help.
Xie Qiao nodded and agreed. “Yes, I will find her Earthly Ethereal Soul as soon as possible.”
“Then I will have to trouble you, Master. Here…” the princess waved and someone took out a small box. “Master, thank you for your hard work. This is something small. When my daughter recovers, I will reward you with a large sum of money!”
She had also inquired with Prince Ning Bei’s Residence. The amount of money given to the master could not be too little, nor too much. Her Prince Yong Lin’s Residence was not inferior to Prince Ning Beis, so she naturally could not give her too little money. Otherwise, she would lose her dignity.
Xie Qiao glanced at it.
It was really… generous.
Ten silver ingots, 50 taels each.
This 500 taels of silver was only the deposit after all. If the matter was really settled, there would be more benefits.
Xie Qiao did not stand on ceremony and kept it.
She had originally thought that there might be something dirty in Prince Yong Lin’s Residence. She had been prepared to fight, but now everything was dispensed with and she needed to go out for a stroll.
However, after leaving the young lady’s courtyard, Xie Qiao looked left and right.
“Your Highness, who lives in that direction?” Xie Qiao asked.
“There?” The princess looked to the east. “That’s the main courtyard where the Old Prince lived when he was still alive. However, after he died, it became empty..”
