Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Voyage
"Mother, are you alright?" said Henry, carefully helping Madame Bezhen up, with a worried expression.
"I'm fine. Bei Zhen, who was helped up, finally regained a trace of brightness in her eyes.
Seeing that his mother was fine, Henry had time to look at everything around him, and he wanted to ask his mother what was going on, but when he saw his mother's pale face, he dispelled this thought.
"Master Henry, leave it to us here, you better help Madame go back to rest!" Rael walked out and looked at Henry who was crouching on the ground.
"Then trouble you, Uncle Rael!" Henry wanted to refuse, but when he saw his mother's appearance, he agreed.
Henry helped Madame Bezhen to be sent back to her room.
"Why are you still stunned, hurry up and clean up, and find a new dining table quickly!" Rael shouted angrily as he looked at the soldiers around him who were not moving.
"Slow down Mother!" Henry slowly helped Bei Zhen to her room.
Bezhen was helped to the bed by Henry, and Bezhen leaned against the head of the bed with her eyes closed.
"Mother, can you tell me what happened?" After setting up his mother, Henry recalled what he had just seen, and asked his mother with some curiosity.
"Hughes,,, Hughes," Bei Zhen didn't seem to come back to her senses, and when she heard Henry's words, her mouth kept repeating the name of Hughes.
"Did Hughes make you like this!?" Henry heard his mother keep repeating the name of Xius, and a wave of anger welled up in his heart, and he prepared to go to Xius.
"Don't, don't, don't go!" Bei Zhen on the side finally came back to his senses, and looked at his angry son and quickly grabbed Henry, preventing him from going to trouble Xius.
"Promise me, don't bother with Theseus!"
"But Mother,"
"Promise me!!" Bezhen cried out loudly.
"Yes!" Henry had never seen his mother so gaffe, and although he didn't know what was going on, he had to say yes.
"Let's go, I want to rest for a while!" Bei Zhen motioned for Henry to go out first.
"Then you have a good rest, I'll come to see you later!" Henry saw that his mother didn't want to say more, and he was okay with injuries, so he planned to let Bei Zhen have a good rest.
"Hughes has already told me that he is not interested in the heir of the earl, you just have to be yourself!" When Henry walked to the door and was about to close the door, Bei Zhen, who was lying on the bed, suddenly said to Henry.
Hearing this, Henry's body paused slightly, but he closed the door and walked out.
When he returned to the room, Xius was also in an irritable mood, he originally wanted to go out of the castle to find Count Ulot, but when he thought that Count Ulot and Count Clay were together, he would not be in the castle if he went!
"Chips!'re okay with my poison!" Theseus remembered the soup he had just drunk.
"Drop! With the host's nature, the amount of poison ingested is not enough to cause an effect!"
"That's good!" Hearing that it was okay, Xius also dispelled the worries in his heart.
Xius thought that Bei Zhen would poison himself violently, and thought of poisoning himself directly.
The result is a chronic poison that takes a long time and a lot of intake to have an effect, but think about it, Count Clay is not at home, and he is poisoned himself, so it is too obvious.
Mrs. Pei Zhen could only use this chronic poison to mix it with Reutus's soup, but Bezhen would never have thought that Xius had such a thing as a chip, so she just scanned out the poison in it in a small bite.
"Maybe I should leave!" Theseus, who sat on the bed and calmed down, felt a voice deep within him get him out of this place.
The area blown up by Hughes was quickly cleaned up, and a new table was set up in its original place, as if nothing had happened.
At noon, there was no one at the table, and Hughes did not have any appetite, so he did not go downstairs.
However, there are some gossips in the castle, roughly that Lady Bezhen wanted to poison Hughes, and after being discovered by Hughes, she used the witchcraft that Hughes learned to teach Bezhen a lesson.
This rumor became more and more outrageous, and even spread that Madame Bezhen just seemed to be fine, but in fact, she had already cursed Henry and her, and she would become a monster after a certain time.
In short, the spread became more and more outrageous, until Rael couldn't listen to it anymore and taught those gossips a lesson, and then he gave up.
In the evening, Count Clay finally returned, and Rael told Count Clay about the day.
In the evening, Hughes was called out by Rael, saying that Count Clay had asked him to have dinner with him, and Hughes saw that he could not refuse, so he obediently went downstairs.
When Hughes went downstairs, he saw that Count Clay had already sat down for dinner, and that Henry and Lady Virgin Yarra were also there.
Hughes sat in his place, and he had no meal for a day, and he had an appetite to see so much food.
And Count Clay did not look up at Hughes from the time Hughes sat down, and Hughes did not take the initiative to say hello, and the father and son ate their meals tacitly.
Hughes knew that what had happened today could not be hidden from Count Clay's ears, and since he didn't say it, Hughes didn't take the initiative to bring it up.
Count Clay had almost eaten, and looking at Hughes, who was still eating, he remembered some things that Rael had told him today, and he felt the need to ask Hughes.
"I've heard a lot of talk about it today, Henry and Bezhen ,,, them."
"There is no curse, don't worry!" Without waiting for Count Clay to finish speaking, Hughes answered Count Clay's question directly.
Henry and Bezhen, who were sitting on the side, were also much more relaxed when they heard Hughes's words, and Henry knew the truth of the matter as early as the afternoon.
Henry heard so many rumors in the castle again, which made Henry more and more scared the more he listened, and he also knew that he knew that Xius had gone to the wizarding academy, so he was also a little afraid of the fact that Xiusi cursed him.
"I've decided I'll be ready to leave in a few days!" said Theseus, putting down the knife and fork in his hand, wiping the juice from his mouth again.
This time, Count Clay did not respond to Hughes, and Henry and the others also saw that something was wrong, and they stopped what they were doing and got up to leave.
There was silence at the table.
"I'll go out for a walk!" After a long silence between the two men, Theseus got up and suggested that he want to get out of the castle and take a walk.
Count Clay didn't react, and Hughes didn't do much, so he bowed to Count Clay and went out.
Hughes, who was about to go out, thought about it and went upstairs to get some things and go out.
Count Clay sat alone and didn't know what he was thinking, and no one dared to approach him.
Hughes walked out of the castle and on the road, and he felt that there was a gap between him and Count Clay, maybe there had been before, but it was magnified by what happened today.
However, Hughes also understands that Count Clay should care about Henry, he has already embarked on the path of a wizard, and he will not be the heir of this earl under any circumstances, and Count Clay can only rely on Henry.
While thinking about it, he came to the castle of Ulot, Hughes was planning to leave, he planned to say goodbye to Count Ulot, and at the same time he wanted Ulot to keep something.
The soldiers of the castle already knew Huss, after all, they all saw Count Ulot's attitude towards Hughes.
"Why are you here?" said Ulot, quipping as soon as he saw Theseus.
"You know everything?" Theseus looked at Count Ulot strangely, he didn't expect the matter to spread so quickly.
"Of course, our two castles are so close to each other, after all, the spread is fast!" Ulott also saw that Xius was not in high spirits, and did not say much.
"I'm leaving!" there was a pause, and Hughes said what he meant.
"So fast?" Hearing Hughes's words, Count Ulot's brow.
"There's not much fun in staying!" Theseus laughed.
"That's right!" Ulott heard Hughes and remembered some of the words that had come to his ears today, and he felt that Hughes was right.
"If Bols and Leah come back, you can give them these for me!" Theseus handed a few tubes of potions and a scroll to Count Ullot.
"What is this?" Ulott looked at the vial in his hand curiously, always feeling very familiar.
"Don't look at it, those tubes of potions are called concentrating potions, they are what you gave us, don't try it, it's easy to die!"
Count Ulott smiled awkwardly, he was really going to drink it at first.
"These tubes of potions and scrolls, if they come back, you can give them to the two of them, remember that the two things are separated, and you must not let anyone know!" Xius explained solemnly to Ulot.
