Tuoba Sheng didn't really ask for Chu Chu's arm in the end, but put the two of them under house arrest, and couldn't even leave the room.

And outside, the manpower was reinforced, so that they could keep an eye on the two people in the house at all times.

The news of Fu Xinyuan and Chu Chu's arrest soon spread outside the palace, the prince knew about this matter, he was very anxious, he was worried about Fu Xinyuan, and he didn't know what kind of crime he was suffering now, and he wanted to go to the palace immediately and rescue Fu Xinyuan.

Fu Shengye is still quite rational now, and immediately stopped the prince's behavior, "The palace is heavily guarded, and the two of them are now under house arrest, if we act so rashly, it will only cause them more harm and backfire, it is better to think about how to rescue them." Fu Shengye's words, he knew that he felt a little reasonable, and he calmed himself down slightly.

Tuoba Jie also heard about this, but she felt that this incident was caused by her, if she hadn't given Fu Xinyuan poison and had to let her kill Taozhi, maybe it wouldn't have developed to today's bad state.

She felt guilty in her heart, and she also knew that she had caused a lot of trouble, so she didn't dare to show her face.

It was from this day that Tuoba Jie suddenly disappeared, and I don't know where he went.

When the prince was depressed, he once again met the drunken old man he had met a few days ago on the street.

This time he was not drunk, but walked towards the crown prince.

The prince avoided it with a vigilant face, fearing that he would go crazy again, but the old man did not go mad with alcohol, but came over and told the prince something important.

When the prince saw his serious gaze, he asked him what was the matter.

The drunken old man observed his surroundings as if he had some confidential state affairs to reveal to the prince.

The prince was very curious, so he forced him to hurry up, and if he didn't, he would leave.

The old man slowly spoke: "A few days ago, I went to the palace. ”

The prince was surprised, this old man didn't seem to have much in the city, except for drinking, but he could actually enter the palace? Could it be that the guards of this Xiqiu Palace are so lax, but in fact, it is not?

"Who do you guess I saw in the palace?" The old man's eyes at this time were not drunk, but wise. It is like a wise man who can see the secrets of the crown prince and the secrets of the imperial palace.

The prince took a keen interest in him, and knew that he was not talking nonsense, so he asked him to continue.

The old man said: "A few days ago, I saw the crown princess of the Jin Kingdom, that is, your wife, in the palace. She's fine, and you can rest assured that he just put them under house arrest and didn't punish them in any way. ”

The prince was pleasantly surprised to find that the old man actually knew his identity, "Is there anything else about her?" How did you know I was the crown prince? ”

The old man only said that the secret of heaven should not be revealed, and left with a smile.

I really thought it was a strange old man.

The prince knew that Fu Xinyuan was still safe in the palace, so he was relieved.

However, not long after the drunken old man walked out, he was targeted, and they followed the old man directly for a long way, until he walked into a road with few people, and those people suddenly jumped out of the shadows and directly blocked the old man's way.

The drunken old man knew that he had been targeted, and he wanted to flee quickly, but he knew that these people directly beat him, punched and kicked, and were very vicious, almost killing him.

The old man recognized these people, they were the guards in the Xiqiu Palace.

It seems that today we must die at their hands.

Just when the old man closed his eyes, held his head, and waited for the arrival of death, he seemed to feel the appearance of another force.

When the old man opened his eyes, he found that the prince had appeared beside him, and was bending down to help him up.

The prince had already left, but then he suddenly wanted to follow the old man to see where he was going and verify his identity.

He also suspected that this old man was sent by Tuoba Sheng, otherwise how would he know about the affairs in the palace?

Because of this reason, the prince turned back, and when he found the old man, he found that he was surrounded and beaten by a group of people, and it seemed that he was beaten to death. The prince had no choice but to come out to save him.

When the old man saw the prince coming, he finally closed his eyes with relief.

"Are you alright?" When the prince saw him close his eyes, he was a little worried about him, thinking that he had died like this.

The old man shook his head, indicating that he was still awake. This bit of bitterness is really nothing to him.

The prince did not know where these people came from, nor did he know what mistakes the old man had made, so he asked, "Why do they follow you?" ”

The old man still closed his eyes and muttered, "They are people from the palace, killing me is naturally a mouthful, I know too many things." ”

As for what he knew, he didn't say any more.

Because he was worried about his wounds, the prince didn't ask.

The prince's men eliminated all the palace guards, and then took the old man back to heal.

The prince Nian Zai was also kind to the old man, so he personally treated his wounds.

While tending to the wound, the old man asked, "Is there any wine?" ”

The prince was stunned for a moment, he was hurt like this, and he was still thinking about drinking, he was really a drunkard.

"Naturally, there is, I'm afraid you won't be able to drink so much." The prince asked him to bring him a jug of wine.

The old man didn't say a word, but endured the pain in silence and let the prince deal with his wounds.

After a long time, when his wounds had been healed, he finally sat up a little straighter, and while drinking wine, he told the prince something about Tuoba Sheng.

"Do you know Tuobasheng's weakness?" This question was asked so suddenly, and the prince was a little confused.

The old man didn't wait for the prince to answer his question, and continued: "In the palace, there is a deep palace secret room, look at you a woman, who has been unconscious all the year round, relying on medicine to maintain her life, and that woman is Tuoba Sheng's biological mother. ”

The prince was very surprised, this is simply very good news.

If you want to rescue Fu Xinyuan, I'm afraid you have to threaten him with this fatal weakness.

The prince was very grateful to the old man for giving him such good news, and at the same time he was very confused about his identity, it seems that this is not a simple old man.

So what exactly is his identity? The prince wanted to know very much, but he didn't say it, and he couldn't force him.
