473 Secret Talks
It was noon, and suddenly heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves, and the general on duty at the south gate immediately frowned, who dared to ride a horse so boldly to storm the imperial city, the saint's anger was a big disrespectful crime, and it was a trivial matter to lose his head, but suddenly he saw a piece of darkness, and the general on duty changed his face immediately, and trotted all the way up to meet it.
In the blink of an eye, a fast horse rushed to the gate of the city and shouted: "The seventh prince returns to Beijing, open the city gate quickly." ”
Hearing that it was Chu Haoyu, the seventh prince, the general on duty was taken aback, and hurriedly commanded many guards to clear the road, until Chu Haoyu left, he was relieved, and at the same time muttered in his heart, what happened to make this master so anxious.
Rushing all the way to the Xiao Mansion, Chu Haoyu threw the reins of the horse to the guards and strode towards the backyard, and when he saw Chu Kun with a pale face and a painful expression, Chu Haoyu breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he also had a touch of melancholy and reluctance.
Seeing Chu Haoyu's expression, an old man in gray bowed down and said, "Young master, in order to see you for the last time, the fourth master took the Death Pill to save his life for seven days, but the Death Pill was highly poisonous, and the fourth master was in pain, so he took the tranquilizing medicine before falling asleep." At the end of the words, the old man in gray raised his hand as if he wanted to wake Chu Kun, but he was stopped by Chu Haoyu waving his hand.
Even if he fell asleep, Chu Kun had pain on his face that could not be concealed, his brows were sometimes wrinkled and sometimes loosened, and Chu Haoyu couldn't bear to see it. After a long time, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and asked in a cold voice: "Uncle Ling, the fourth uncle has rarely gone out these years, why was he attacked by the Heavenly Thorn traitor?" ”
The gray-clothed old man Chu Ling is also a slave of the Chu family, and he has followed Chu Kun for most of his life, and immediately replied: "Back to the young master, there is an inner ghost." Chu Ling almost gritted his teeth and said the word inner ghost, and when he heard the word inner ghost, a cold light flashed in Chu Haoyu's eyes.
Soon, Chu Ling put away all his emotions and opened his mouth to say: "At the beginning of the establishment of the Secret Guard, the master had the intention to fight for the world, so he installed a large number of spies into the Zhao Dynasty, including the Shadow Guard, and now fifty years have passed, only two or three people have survived, and Chu Fan is one of them," Seeing Chu Haoyu's brows furrowed slightly, Chu Ling seemed to know what Chu Haoyu wanted to ask, and immediately said: "Young Master, the other two old slaves don't know their identities, only the fourth master knows." ”
Tapping his head, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and said, "Go on." ”
Chu Ling then said just now: "In the past forty years, the fourth master has never used Chu Fan, until the tragic change on your wedding day, the fourth master ordered the old slave to find Chu Fan with a secret order, and ordered Chu Fan to find out why the shadow wanted to assassinate the prince, and did not hesitate to expose his identity. Speaking of this, there was a hint of gloom in Chu Ling's eyes, but he still said in an uneasy tone: "A few days ago, the fourth master got the news that Chu Ling found out the identity of the shadow, but he was also chased by the Heavenly Assassin because of this, and after getting the news, the fourth master personally led the team to find Chu Fan, I don't think this is simply a bureau of the Heavenly Thorn traitor against the fourth master, all the accompanying masters were killed, and the fourth master was also seriously injured. ”
After a moment of silence, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and asked, "What about the inner ghost?" ”
Thinking of the inner ghost, Chu Ling's face turned cold again, and he said in a deep voice: "It's Chu Jing, who has infiltrated my Tianwei for thirty years, and has now been imprisoned, waiting for the young master to decide." ”
Chu Haoyu didn't make a sound, but set his eyes on Chu Kun, with undisguised sadness in his eyes. At this moment, Chu Haoyu couldn't help but think of Chu Zheng and the scene when Chu Zheng died on the battlefield.
Or Chu Haoyu's gaze, it should also be the last trace of obsession, under Chu Haoyu's gaze, Chu Kun actually opened his eyes. Seeing the person in front of him clearly, a smile appeared on Chu Kun's pale face, and he struggled to sit up but was held down by Chu Haoyu, and opened his mouth to say, "Fourth uncle, don't move." ”
Chu Kun was seriously injured and his vitality was completely dependent on the Desperate Pill to continue his life, and he didn't have a trace of strength on his body How to break Chu Haoyu's palm, so he no longer had to exert himself, but his face showed a touch of shame, and he said weakly: "Young master, the old slave has failed to live up to the trust of the master, and has failed to eradicate the Heavenly Thorn Rebel in the past 20 years, but has fallen into the calculation of the Heavenly Thorn Rebel, what a shame!" ”
Chu Haoyu immediately said: "Uncle Kun, don't think about it so much, rest assured that you can recuperate your injuries, the heavenly thorn is a traitor, Xiao Qi will definitely eradicate them." ”
Looking at Chu Haoyu's cold face, Chu Kun's face became more and more guilty, and he shook his head and said: "I wanted to assist the young master to eradicate the remnants of the Heavenly Thorn for a few more years, but now it seems that the old slave is no longer good, and can only be handed over to you, young master." Speaking of this, waving his hand to stop Chu Haoyu from speaking, Chu Kun continued: "Young master, you don't have to worry about it anymore, the old slave's body is clear by itself, and the Daluo Immortal is also difficult to save, this time, I really have to go to the master and a few brothers." ”
When he held down Chu Kun just now, Chu Haoyu had already used his true qi to investigate his injuries, as he said, his life was exhausted, just looking at this twilight old man, Chu Haoyu suddenly felt a deep sadness and pain. The five brothers followed their father Chu Tianfeng all their lives, and with Chu Kun's departure, I am afraid that the traces of their father are getting weaker and fainter. Thinking of this, Chu Haoyu actually felt that his nose was sour. Taking a deep breath, Chu Haoyu suddenly laughed, opened his mouth and said, "Fourth Uncle, when you see your father, Uncle Da, and Uncle Zheng, say hello on behalf of Xiao Qi, and say that Xiao Qi misses them." ”
Suddenly, Chu Kun's eyes were sour, and uncontrollable tears flowed down, but a smile also appeared on his face, and he opened his mouth and said: "Young master, don't worry, the old slave must bring the words, I want to come to the old master to hear the news of the young master, and he will be very happy." ”
Nodding, Chu Haoyu had put away all his emotions, his face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Uncle Kun, Xiao Qi must eradicate the Heavenly Thorn Traitor." ”
Chu Kun understood what Chu Haoyu meant. In the past two years, Chu Haoyu has gradually taken over the Eagle Guard and the Tiger Guard, but the Dragon Guard and the masters hidden in various places by the Tianwei, especially the spies planted by the two brothers Chu Da and Chu Kun, are all controlled by Chu Haoyu.
Looking at Chu Haoyu and his handsome face, Chu Kun suddenly felt a little unbearable, but he instantly suppressed this thought, and said with a smile: "It's time to hand it over to the young master, let's go down." Under Chu Kun's orders, everyone immediately retreated, leaving only him and Chu Haoyu, whispering something.
Unconsciously the sky had darkened, leaving the Xiao Mansion was already full of stars, and looking at the stars, Chu Haoyu let out an indescribable sigh, and rushed to the palace with a horse, and there were eunuchs waiting for him at the gate of the city. Seeing Chu Haoyu, the little eunuch immediately greeted him, knelt down and said, "The slave knocks on the prince." As if knowing Chu Haoyu's doubts, the little eunuch continued: "The slave is here to greet the prince on the order of the saint, and the saint is waiting for the prince in Cining Palace. ”
Chu Haoyu naturally entered the palace to meet his mother, and when he heard that the eldest brother was waiting for him, he knew that he had something to say to himself, so he nodded and said, "Lead the way." ”
After entering Cining Palace and seeing that Fang Yu and Xiao'er Chu Hongchen were also there, Chu Haoyu showed a smile on his face, but he knelt on the ground and bowed respectfully: "Xiao Qi has seen the queen mother and the eldest brother. ”
I haven't seen Chu Haoyu for a few months, and the Queen Mother really misses it, and suddenly saw her favorite son, a smile appeared on her face, but before he could speak, Xiao Hongchen had already thrown herself into Chu Haoyu's arms and shouted: "Father, I want to die Chen'er." ”
The atmosphere was still a little serious, but Xiao Hongchen's shout directly amused everyone, and even Chu Haoyu couldn't help but smile on his face, forgetting about those bloody battles, but he didn't see Chu Haoyu speak, Xiao Hongchen asked suspiciously: "What, father, don't you want Chen'er?" ”
With a snort, Chu Haoyu couldn't help laughing, with undisguised joy on his face, at this moment, the Queen Mother opened her mouth and said, "Okay, hurry up." Speaking of this, after a pause, the Queen Mother said reproachfully: "I don't know how to take care of my body, look at you tired." ”
Since getting the news of Chu Kun's assassination, Chu Haoyu rushed to the capital non-stop, and traveled more than 1,000 miles in five days, not to mention changing clothes and taking a bath, sometimes he couldn't take care of food, and his clothes were full of dust. Hearing the words of the queen mother, Chu Haoyu noticed the abnormality in his body, but before he could speak, Xiao Hongchen had already jumped out, covered his nose and said: "Father is lazy, he doesn't take a bath, he is ugly, ugly, and smelly." ”
Chu Hongchen's voice was crisp and clean, especially with his little face, everyone watching laughed again. In the laughter, Chu Haoyu hugged Chu Hongchen, and looking at his black and white eyes, Chu Haoyu subconsciously lifted him to the front of his head and pushed him up, and said with a smile: "Boy, I still dislike your father......" The words were not finished, but Chu Hongchen shouted: "It hurts, it hurts, my father is bad, my father is bad, my grandmother saves me, grandma emperor saves me." ”
Although she knew that Chu Haoyu loved her son, but listening to the words of the little grandson, there was a trace of crying, and the Queen Mother said heartache: "Okay, Xiaoqi, let Chen'er come down, don't scare him." At the end of the words, the Queen Mother stood up even more, as if she wanted to take away her beloved grandson from Chu Haoyu's demon, and Fang Yugang, who was watching, hurriedly stepped forward to support the Queen Mother.
At this moment, the Holy Lord Chu Haoran also opened his mouth and said, "Okay, Xiaoqi, don't make trouble, you haven't eaten yet, right?" Xiao Chenchen just thought of you, and he must leave you food. ”
handed over his son Chu Hongchen to the queen mother, but Chu Haoyu raised his hand and scratched his nose again, and said with a smile: "I can still think of leaving food for my father, I haven't felt sorry for your kid for so many years." ”
"Alright." Glaring at Chu Haoyu, the Queen Mother said slightly angrily: "It's such a big person, and it's like a child, look at how scared Xiao Chenchen." Chenchen is not afraid, grandma hugs. ”
Smiling at Chu Haoyu, Fang Yu helped the Queen Mother to return to the soft couch and sat down, but at this moment, Chu Hongchen's eyes were on Chu Haoyu again, and his eyes kept dripping. Seeing this, the Queen Mother couldn't help but be happy and smiled: "You have no conscience, and you still think about him." At the end of the words, the Queen Mother also set her eyes on Chu Haoyu, and said with pity: "Eat first, look at it, I haven't eaten well for a few days." ”
With the words of the Queen Mother, a palace maid immediately brought a food box. Chu Haoyu smiled to himself, opened his mouth and said: "Listening to what you said from the queen mother, Xiao Qi is really hungry, and he hasn't eaten a full meal for five or six days. ”
Suddenly, the Queen Mother glared at Chu Haoyu fiercely, as if blaming him for not caring for his body, and at the same time sighed and asked, "Have you seen Chu Kun?" ”
Chu Haoyu's face immediately darkened, there was undisguised sadness in his eyes, and he nodded but never opened his mouth. Seeing this, the Queen Mother sighed again and said, "Eat first, and then talk about it when you are full." ”
