Fang Lanyue stayed in the deep mountain courtyard for a day or two before setting off to return to Yongcheng.

Before leaving, he left his eldest apprentice Xu Yuan to take care of Ai Chen.

Xu Yuan is not only proficient in medical skills, but also very patient, Fang Lanyue left him down, in addition to helping Ai Chen recover, the most important thing is that he wants Xu Yuan to train Ai Chen, so that Ai Chen has the ability to use spiritual power.

Ai Chen begged Fang Lanyue not to tell the people of the General's Mansion about the change of heart.

"It's such a big thing, I can't hide it." Fang Lanyue Road.

Ai Chen's throat was uncomfortably blocked. "If he had gained the heart of me, an outcast, wouldn't he have become an outcast as well? He is a genius, not an outcast. ”

Fang Lanyue didn't answer Ai Chen, but later the General's Mansion sent four servants to take care of Ai Chen.

When Ai Chen asked what was going on, the servant replied that the general had sent them to take care of Ai Chen, who had been injured by the people of the Moon Swallowing Palace.

Ai Chen was surprised, and asked further, and the servant said that the national teacher told the general that Ai Chu had found that the people of the Moon Swallowing Palace had taken action, so he went to investigate the Moon Swallowing Palace, and he could not come back for the time being.

Ai Chen breathed a sigh of relief, Fang Lanyue concealed the change of heart, thinking that for Fang Lanyue, Ai Chu was her favorite apprentice.

After a few months of raising in the deep mountain courtyard, Ai Chen's health gradually improved.

Under Xu Yuan's teaching, Ai Chen learned to use spiritual powers. He was thrilled when he discovered that his blood could produce spirits. When he was able to get himself into the air for the first time, he was so happy that his appetite grew.

It turns out that this is the feeling of using spirits, which is much easier than using hands and feet.

Xu Yuan sighed that there was more than one genius in the Ai family, Ai Chen's control of the spirit was far above Ai Chu, he seemed to be born a spirit warrior, and he was born with the spirit.

After a few months, Ai Chen's spiritual power has achieved a little.

Every day, Ai Chen asked for news from Ai Chu, until one day Ai Chen's mother Yuan Xiaojun came to the Shenshan Courtyard in person to take Ai Chen back.

Ai Chen was flattered, after all, Yuan Xiaojun had not paid much attention to Ai Chen since he was very young.

After inquiry, it turned out that the people from the General's Mansion had found out about the change of heart.

While tracking down the Moon Swallowing Palace, Arrow discovered Ai Chu's whereabouts. Further investigation revealed a shocking fact.

Ai Chu took refuge in the Moon Swallowing Palace, and was helping the people of the Moon Swallowing Palace to persecute the people of Vientiane Kingdom.

Arrow rushed to the National Teacher's Mansion in a fit of anger to question the truth, and Fang Lanyue had no choice but to tell the matter of changing her heart.

Ai Chen was greatly shocked, and hurriedly rushed back to the General's Mansion to ask Arrow about the details of Ai Chu's whereabouts, and he wondered if there was any misunderstanding in this.

After Arrow said this, he sighed solemnly: "Not only has he not become an outcast, but his strength is even stronger than before. It must have been in the Moon Swallowing Palace that he learned some crooked and evil techniques to make him look like he didn't recognize his six relatives. ”

After Arrow said this, several of the concubines standing beside Arrow, as well as Arrow's mother, were very sad and disappointed.

Ai Chen did not believe that Ai Chu would rebel against the Vientiane Kingdom, because Ai Chu had been sparing no effort to serve the Vientiane Kingdom, and for this, he lost his freedom and had no hobbies of his own.

Moreover, Ai Chu told him more than once that Vientiane Country is the homeland that he must keep no matter what he pays.

Ai Chen firmly believed that Ai Chu had taken refuge in the Moon Swallowing Palace for a reason, perhaps for the sake of fine work, or for something else.

Ai Chu's rebellion became a mystery for a long time afterward, as unpredictable as his change of heart for Ai Chen.

After a few more months, the people of the Moon Swallowing Palace took action again.

At that time, the emperor and empress were sacrificing on the outskirts of Yongcheng, and after the sacrifice was completed, Lu Huarong proposed to see the surrounding farmland, and the emperor readily agreed.

Everyone in the Ai family went with him.

Including Aichen.

Ai Chen, as Ai Chu, stood at the position where Ai Chu should stand.

In the past few months, he has been trying his best to imitate Ai Chu, he wears Ai Chu's clothes, eats Ai Chu's favorite food, wears Ai Chu's big sword, and learns Ai Chu's character.

In order to protect Ai Chu's reputation, he abandoned the disgusting narrowness of the past, he no longer cherished the fireworks and willow lane, he made himself react to Ai Chu's name reflexively, and he endured his heart to understand the court characters and rules that Ai Chu knew.

If Ai Chu doesn't come back one day, he will be Ai Chu one day; If Ai Chu doesn't come back for a year, he will be Ai Chu for a year; If Ai Chu never comes back, Ai Chen doesn't exist!

His behavior was unanimously approved by the Ai family, because no one wanted the world to know that the genius-like Ai Chu actually became a traitor!

This time, Ai Chen appeared in front of the world for the first time as Ai Chu, and he carefully responded to everyone's greetings, not wanting to make any mistakes.

Just as they were walking through a farmland, the people of the Moon Swallowing Palace appeared.

They appeared in front of everyone without warning, and fought without sparing their lives.

Ai Chen immediately mobilized the spirit to meet the battle, but because his use of spiritual power had not yet reached the level of Ai Chu, he was quickly defeated.

He understood that the people sent by the Moon Swallowing Palace this time were all masters.

In a fierce battle, the guards suffered many casualties, and Ai Chen fell unconscious.

In a trance, he heard someone say that the queen had been taken captive.

Arrow led people to chase after him, and met Ai Chu again, and the father and son fought again full of anger, and they were evenly matched.

It took Arrow three days and three nights to finally bring Queen Lu Huarong back safely.

The Ai family became famous for a while. Arrow covered his wounds, thinking of Ai Chu's cruel hand, and cried bitterly.

Ai Chen hated why he was so weak, if he was strong enough, he could face to face with Ai Chu, he had to ask what Ai Chu was rebelling against Vientiane Country for! What the hell is doing for the Moon Swallowing Palace! What the hell was going through his mind when he wounded Arrow like this!

Ai Chen turned grief and anger into motivation, practicing spiritual power day and night, he had only one purpose, he wanted to catch Ai Chu!

At the same time, he also found out that something was wrong, when the people from the Moon Swallowing Palace came, everyone thought that their purpose was to assassinate the emperor, but no one expected that it was to kidnap Lu Huarong.

And Arrow's abnormality makes Arrow think that Arrow knows the truth.

Ai Chu was absent from the court for too long, and the prince sent someone to invite him, and Ai Chen had no choice but to pretend to be Ai Chu and return to the court.

As soon as he arrived at the palace, he heard something strange in the palace.

After Lu Huarong came back, everything was as usual. But whenever the emperor saw her, he was shocked and cried out that he had seen the devil.

After careful investigation, it was found that Lu Huarong should have been under a spiritual spell by someone, and it was normal for other people to see Lu Huarong, but only the emperor, when he saw Lu Huarong, he was a puppet.

The emperor also drew the puppet he saw, the puppet had a hideous face, colorless eyes, and a slender body, like a devil indeed.

The national teacher tried his best to unravel Lu Huarong's curse, but he didn't succeed.

Because of this spiritual spell, the emperor refused to see Lu Huarong. There is no way for anyone to do it.

One day, when Ai Chen entered the palace, he heard that Arrow was coming, so he wanted to go to him, but he learned that Arrow had gone to see the queen.

Ai Chen always thought that something must have happened on the way back to bring the queen back that would make Arrow behave abnormally, so he used illusion to observe the situation.

He had always had a soft spot for illusions, and before he had Ai Chu's heart, he had studied illusions deeply. However, because there is no spiritual support, it is impossible to put theory into practice.

Ever since he had spiritual power, he had easily practiced illusion to a level that ordinary people couldn't reach.

But Arrow and Lu Huarong, both of them are not weak in spiritual power, and Ai Chen risked being discovered and cautiously came to the queen's bedroom.

He was not found.

He learned the truth.
