Chapter 43: Knowing the Truth
"You're awake. ”
In An Wan's courtyard, Li Wanqing saw An Zheyu get up and hurriedly brought the porridge bowl that had already been placed on the table, and said softly: "After sleeping for so long, you are hungry, I will feed you." ”
An Zheyu smiled and shook his head, he always felt groggy in the past two days, as if he couldn't sleep enough.
He blocked Li Wanqing's right hand holding the porridge back, yawned and said, "I'm going to see my grandfather first." ”
"It's not too late to drink the porridge and go again. She handed over the porridge again, and An Zheyu couldn't refuse, so she had to open her mouth obediently.
"Your Royal Highness, the old prince is looking for you in a hurry. ”
At this moment, Junko suddenly appeared outside the door and said loudly.
"Here we go!"
When the porridge came to his mouth, he didn't drink it, Li Wanqing couldn't help but be a little angry, but she couldn't show it, so she had to secretly pinch her palm, and even the wooden spoon was almost broken by her!
"I'll drink again when I'm back. ”
An Zheyu said dotingly, then changed his clothes and walked out.
The sun is glaring today. He hurriedly put his hand in his eyes.
"That's because His Highness hasn't been out for two days. ”
Listening to what Junko said, it's true!
He smiled awkwardly and got up and walked out of the courtyard.
"Miss, the prince won't notice anything, will he?"
Shuang'er walked in and took the porridge bowl in Li Wanqing's hand.
"Throw it out, and you won't be able to see it. ”
"Yes. ”
Li Wanqing stood up from the side of the bed, sat down at the table again and asked, "Has anyone found it?"
"Not yet, but there's a clue. The spies sent a message to report that the fox demon had died on the edge of the moon forest, and the injury seemed to be related to the wolf clan. ”
"Oh, could it be that the two of them have been kidnapped by the Wolf King?"
The slave thought it was possible. ”
"You tell them to go and check quickly, if that's the case, then go and negotiate with the wolf king, people must come back!"
Li Wanqing was a little annoyed, this matter went so smoothly, the nobles who wanted to come to the imperial city couldn't wait!
"Slave and maid go do it immediately!"
。。。。。。。。。。
"Old prince, His Royal Highness the Prince has come down. ”
"Let him in!"
When Junko heard the echo, she immediately opened the door of the dormitory and walked in with Ahn Cheol-woo, then turned around and closed the door.
"The grandson greets the grandfather. ”
"Excuse me, ahem... Come forward, grandfather has something to ask you. ”
An Zheyu stepped forward, and the old prince motioned for him to sit on the edge of the bed.
"Eat this first. ”
He took out a small milky white porcelain vase from under his pillow and handed it to An Zheyu. An Zheyu took it suspiciously, and uncorked the bottle and poured out a white pill.
"Let's eat it. ”
The old prince said lovingly, and there were tears flashing in his eyes.
An Zheyu obediently swallowed the pill and handed the porcelain bottle back to his grandfather.
This bottle had been seen since he was very young, and grandfather had always treasured it.
The old prince put away the bottle and moved his body up, and then said weakly: "Grandfather has been hiding something from you all these years, but now it's time to say it." ”
He sighed, looked at An Zheyu's frowning appearance and continued: "The real reason why you have been hiding from you for all these years that your parents and your eldest brother have separated us is that I am afraid that you will also be involved in this dispute, but now that they have extended their claws to you, grandfather hopes that you can take your responsibility." ”
"Grandfather, please. ”
"Child, in fact, this all stems from the suspicion of the ruler of the imperial city, he has always been afraid that our Anwangfu will be high, so he used the excuse of house arrest for your mother and eldest brother, your father has not returned to the dynasty for more than ten years, and has been sent to guard the frontier, and you are also your grandfather spent a lot of money to stay in this mansion, but since you were a child, you had to send you to the nameless mountain to learn art, this is all the man's painstaking arrangement, the purpose is to make you unable to escape from his control. ”
The old prince said so much in one breath, and suddenly felt a little lacking in mental strength, and coughed heavily.
"Grandfather!"
Looking at the black blood that his grandfather coughed up in his palm, An Zheyu suddenly became very anxious!
"Grandpa is fine, but there is one more important thing to tell you, the reason why grandpa has become what he is all caused by your beloved wife. ”
"You mean Wanqing?
An Zheyu was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had misheard.
"She was sent to you by the Imperial City to approach you since she was a child, and my grandfather only recently found out. She has always hidden her identity, but in fact, she is also a closed disciple of the current national teacher. ”
"It can't be!"
The old prince did not refute him, but continued: "I was poisoned by her after she left the house, but it is different from the poison you have now. Grandfather can only let you take this antidote pill left by Dr. Gu, hoping to save your life. ”
"How... Will it be?"
An Zheyu sat on the edge of the bed in despair, and his heart was condensed into frost!
"You must believe your grandfather! I have been hiding from you to protect you. Grandfather's time is running out, and now the only hope is that Orchid Mother-in-law was also robbed by her, and there is no news, and it is estimated that there is more than luck, Grandfather hopes that you can go out secretly with Shunzi, and you must find Orchid Mother-in-law and protect her. ”
"Granny Orchid is missing?"
The old prince didn't answer, just nodded slightly, he was too tired.
"His Royal Highness, the disappearance of the orchid mother-in-law for no reason may also have nothing to do with the princess, Shunzi has been ordered by the old prince to secretly investigate thoroughly, the two days of the princess Niangniang's side of the frost girl behavior is very suspicious, it seems that she has been secretly communicating with a group of people in black, and her subordinates have sent secret agents to follow and find that there have been traces of fighting in the moon forest not far from here. ”
"Zhe'er. ”
"Grandfather, please command. ”
An Zheyu stood up and saluted.
"Gotta find Orchid Po cough... Ahem!"
"Grandfather, don't worry, grandson will do it!" he hurriedly wiped the black blood coughed up by his grandfather with his sleeve, and at this time the entire right cuff was dyed blood, and his heart was also pinched.
"Protect her... I... Thoughtful!"
"Grandfather!"
Shunzi hurriedly stepped forward to check, and then told An Zheyu: "Your Royal Highness, the old prince has fainted, and his subordinates will invite Hu Lao." ”
An Zheyu nodded anxiously, and Junzi rushed out of the palace gate and leaped away.
The old housekeeper also came from outside the courtyard and brought a bowl of soup and medicine.
"His Royal Highness, this is the last medicine left by the orchid mother-in-law, and the old slave will feed the old prince to drink. ”
"I'll do it. ”
An Zheyu hurriedly took the medicine bowl, blew into the bowl, and then scooped up a spoonful and handed it to his grandfather's mouth, but every time he drank less and more came out, he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.
"His Royal Highness, Old Hu is here!"
Hu Lao was dragged by Shunzi all the way, and his old bones seemed to be about to fall apart, knowing that the situation was serious, he didn't have time to take a breath and went directly to check the pulse.
After a long time, he shook his head and stood up tremblingly, and said to An Zheyu: "There is nothing that can be done about the old decay!"
"There's no way to alleviate it?"
An Zheyu grabbed his hand and asked eagerly, at this time, Hu Lao became the only life-saving straw in his eyes, if he said that he was not saved, wouldn't his grandfather?
"His Royal Highness the Prince should find Granny Orchid as soon as possible, maybe her old man can find a way. The old man can only give needles to the old prince every day to continue his life, and it will be useless after a long time......"
After Hu Lao finished administering the needle to the old prince, he packed up the medicine box, shook his head and walked out of Qinglan Courtyard.
"Old butler. ”
"The old slave is here. ”
"This son will go with Junzi to find the orchid mother-in-law, you will take care of my grandfather for me, don't slack off!"
"Your Royal Highness, please rest assured, the old slave will take care of it wholeheartedly. ”
"Also, the princess and the people in her courtyard are not allowed to get close to Qinglan Courtyard, if she asks about my whereabouts, she will say that I will stay in my grandfather's room to serve the sick, do you know?"
"The old slave understands that the old prince has already ordered this matter. ”
Listening to what the old housekeeper said, it turned out that he had been kept in the dark, "Wanqing, is it really you?" he asked himself in his heart, but he didn't get an answer.
After finding the little girl who pretended to be Orchid's mother-in-law and healed his grandfather, he must ask her for clarification!
Junzi had already packed everything, and without caring about lunch, An Zheyu sneaked out of the back door with him and rode to Yuelin, hoping that Tang Zhi could be there......
And Yuelin has become a mess at the moment!
The wolf king knew what his wife had done, and he was furious for a while, "This stupid woman, why can't she hold her breath like this! You must know that this king has the blood of immortality in his hand, as long as he refines himself by a Taoist priest, he can get a share, and when the time comes, what is the old man with a jade face, it is not as easy to deal with her as it is to step on an ant to death!"
"The king is angry, Madame is afraid that she has already attacked Yuyanju at this time. ”
"Bring more people and go to the Foggy Mountains! Although the old monster will be weakened on the day of the hundred years of sacrifice, it is not something that Madame can deal with, and Madame must be rescued safely!"
"Yes, the king, the little one will do it!"
Not long after, a group of wolf demons under the leadership of the wolf king went to the foggy mountains, leaving only a few guards to guard the home and the rest of them were all old, weak, sick and disabled.
Unbeknownst to him, this decision almost became the disaster of the wolf clan's extermination......
It is said that the speed of a group of demons is really not slow, and they have already come to the ancient tree in a short time.
The wolf king was very careful, after all, he didn't know what the situation of Yuyan Curie was, he didn't dare to act rashly, so he sent a little demon to investigate, but unexpectedly, that guy didn't escape the temptation of the Phantom Soul Fruit, and directly devoured a Yuyan Ju that entered the suspended air.
"Damn, I forgot about that demon fruit!"
The wolf king didn't dare to take it lightly, you must know that even he can't stick to his heart and not be tempted, but fortunately, Mrs. was the cat spirit in Yuyan Ju before, and she already had a way to deal with the phantom soul fruit.
He took out a black locket, activated the lock, and as soon as he opened it, he saw countless black shadows rushing straight towards the ancient tree, and as soon as those black shadows touched the ancient tree, the phantom soul fruit on the tree was like a great enemy, and the brilliance turned into ordinary fruits.
Seeing that the phantom soul fruit could no longer be a demon, the wolf king smiled proudly, knowing that this method would not last long, he waved his hand and took the lead in stepping into the courtyard organ, and the group of demons flashed into the jade-faced old man's Yuyan Residence.
If you look closely at the ancient tree, it is full of long black and black insects, which are the nemesis of the Phantom Soul Fruit, but as soon as they enter the air, the insects suddenly disappear, and they must have been inspired by the wolf king to return to the box.
"Madame!"
As soon as the wolf king entered the courtyard, he saw cat corpses and wolf corpses all over the ground being pressed in countless red lanterns, and his wife White Cat Spirit was blown up to the ground, but fortunately, a head was still there, but it had also changed back to its original form.
If it weren't for the fact that she was the only white cat in this Yuyan Curie, the wolf king wouldn't have recognized it so quickly.
I saw him howling loudly, and the grief was indescribable, it seems that the status of the white cat spirit in his heart is really not light!
"Jade Face, my wolf king and you don't share the sky!"
"King, I found it, the corpse of the jade-faced old man is in the garden not far away. ”
"Dead?"
The wolf king was a little shocked, the jade-faced old man who was once invincible, the jade-faced old man who had bullied his wolf clan for many years, died like this?
He instructed his subordinates to clean up his wife's body, and he took them to the garden, and sure enough, the body of the jade-faced old man was lying under a camellia tree not far away.
"Don't make a sound!"
And behind the rockery at the other end of the garden, Mo Yi put down the hand that pinched Lingzhi's neck and sealed her dumb hole instead, and Lingzhi was holding a cat's head crutch tightly in his hand, which was the one in the hands of the jade-faced old man.
