Chapter 276: The Burning Queen
There were not many trustworthy people in the old clan king Tuohetai back then, except for Tang Anshu, who was also the high priest of the shaman back then, and Antai, who was the commander of the Su Guard at the time.
Tang Xiaohao looked at Daouri and said, "In other words, the people who advised the old clan king back then were you and Tang Anshu. Who is Tang Anshu? Someone who can gain the trust of the old clan king should also be famous in Jiuyuan, right?"
Dauria said: "He is the minister of the earth, and he is still the senior brother of Hu Shen, the former great strategist of the Huayuan Imperial Court."
Tang Xiaohao suddenly realized, and at the same time remembered Gu Huaiyi, Gu Huaiyi and Sang Luo are brothers, and Gu Huaiyi naturally knows Tang Anshu.
Although he understood the connection between these people, because there was too little relevant information, he naturally couldn't guess the real purpose of Gu Huaiyi replacing Jiang Mingke to Rouyuan.
Tang Xiaohao thought for a while and said, "In other words, Tang Anshu and you are responsible for using their brains, and Antai is responsible for doing their hands?"
"Almost," Dauria stared at Tang Xiaohao, "the reason why I told you so much and told you about my rejuvenation, is not because you are a colt, but because of Tang Anshu and Su Man. As far as I am concerned, I only trust the two of them, and I also need to borrow the princess to return to Johara to find out everything that happened back then and prove that I am not wrong."
Tang Xiaohao shook his head: "What do you mean? I don't understand."
Dauria stepped forward to untie the candle dragon: "The candle dragon is not an ordinary horse, so as long as you take out the spirit sword hidden in the horse's leg, you will be healed after cultivating here for a while."
Tang Xiaohao didn't ask a question, if he asked about the candle dragon at this time, he would divert from the previous topic.
After all, he and Daouria don't trust each other.
Dauria brought two wooden barrels from the corner, one containing one for fresh grass and one for water, and placed them in front of the candle dragon.
The candle dragon raised his eyes and looked at Tang Xiaohao.
Tang Xiaohao hurriedly said, "Eat, people just saved you, and they won't poison you."
The candle dragon lowered his head and ate the grass, but he ate it very slowly, and looked at Tang Xiaohao while chewing it carefully.
Dauria returned to the wall and stood, "A long time ago, the old clan king dreamed of immortality, and later, because of the relationship between wanting to eradicate the scourge of the Bone Hunters, at the suggestion of Tang Anshu, we began to cooperate with the Bone Hunters, because the Bone Hunters have a way to help us deal with the Armor."
I see. Tang Xiaohao nodded slowly: "Tang Anshu can only come forward, he is the earth minister, even if he works for the government, he is also a heretic."
Daouria said, "Tang Anshu came up with the idea, but as far as I know, there are other people who go to establish contact, people from different ways."
Heretics? Tang Xiaohao remembered the experience along the way, and subconsciously said, "Alone?"
Daouria shook his head: "I don't know this, I established trust with Tang Anshu, and it was also caused by a series of things that happened after the death of the old clan king, before that, he and I didn't interfere with each other, nor did we spy on each other's thoughts and behaviors, but each performed its own duties."
Tang Xiaohao thought for a moment and said, "You mean, before the old clan king cooperated with the Bone Hunter faction, as the high priest, you were already studying the art of immortality?"
"Smart, the reaction is so fast, no wonder Tang Anshu wants you to come to me," Daouria had a smile on his face, but he laughed strangely, "The rumored Fan Lang Pony is really not simple."
Dauria walked to the table to the side, where he found some herbs and chewed them in his mouth.
At this time, Tang Xiaohao took advantage of the bright light on the table to fully see Daouary's face.
There is black hair hidden in the white hair, the hair should be dyed, the eyebrows are very light in color, so they are covered by false eyebrows, and the most important thing is that the eyes are light blue, with delicate facial features and clear facial contours, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a Rouyuan person, nor does it have the characteristics of a Huayuan person.
And Daouel's body is too thin, and it feels like it is intentional, because such a figure is in line with his actual age.
Tang Xiaohao asked tentatively, "You said earlier that you were right because you thought that the immortality technique that the Bone Hunter studied was wrong? And your research is correct?"
Dauria said, "Of course, I am living proof. However, before I could succeed, my status as High Priest was outlawed and replaced by the current High Priest, Bao Yin Borg, because Bao Yin Borg, who also agreed with the Bone Hunter's practices."
Tang Xiaohao shook his head in confusion: "According to what you say, Tang Anshu, who took the initiative to establish contact with the bone hunter, does not agree either?"
Daouria smiled bitterly, "Tang Anshu never thought that the art of immortality existed, and besides, he knew very well that the bone hunters could do anything for the sake of immortality. However, he neither believed nor agreed with my research."
Tang Xiaohao asked again, "Can you explain it in chronological order?" I'm listening to it a little bit now."
In fact, since several generations ago, the priesthood of the Torth Department has been studying the art of immortality, but the direction of research is natural spiritual power, and it is believed that it can be rejuvenated by absorbing natural spiritual power.
But they never succeeded, because there was a key issue involving natural spiritual powers, and this key problem could not be solved.
Tang Anshu fled to Rouyuan, and was regarded as a guest by the old clan king Tuohetai, and after the establishment of the staff of Tubier, because of the decarnation disaster, he cooperated with the bone hunters at the suggestion of Tang Anshu.
The Bone Hunter also sent an envoy to meet with the Old Clan King, and in the process, the Old Clan King learned that the Bone Hunter was also studying the art of immortality, so he naturally became interested.
At that time, Tang Anshu strongly objected, thinking that it was impossible, and the most important thing was that it would cost the people and money, and he persuaded him bluntly many times, which finally angered the old king.
Therefore, the dissolution of the General Staff, the hiding of Tang Anshu, and even the abolition of Daour's status as a high priest are directly related to the two of them's opposition to Tohetai's cooperation with the Bone Hunters.
Even so, the old clan king still didn't do anything to the two, he knew in his heart that both of them were great talents.
The old clan king also handed over all the matters related to the cooperation with the bone hunters to Antai, because Antai was the most trusted person of the old clan king Tuohetai at that time. At the same time, the bone hunter also sent a secret envoy to contact the old clan king directly.
As for who this envoy was, Tang Anshu and Daouri didn't know the specific identity, only that there was such a person.
When Daouria recalled this, he raised his eyes and looked at Tang Xiaohao: "Durantuya, that is, Baomeng's mother, once disappeared for a period of time after she became pregnant, and according to Suman, the queen disappeared for thirty-seven days."
Tang Xiaohao was puzzled: "Missing?"
Daouria said: "I call it missing, but it should have been arranged by the old king, as for the thirty-seven days, where she went, what she did, I don't know, even Suman doesn't know, Suman only knows, thirty-seven days later, when Durantuya came back, the whole person changed, became silent, all day in bed, eating, drinking, and Lazar all in bed, and only Suman served alone."
Tang Xiaohao immediately asked, "Why is this?"
Daouria shook his head, "I don't know, and Suman doesn't know, but Suman told me that something was very wrong, because she noticed that the queen's body had become very strange, like the roots of a tree spread on a bed."
Tang Xiaohao was stunned when he heard this, he couldn't imagine that picture, but he thought of a key question.
Tang Xiaohao asked, "What is the relationship between Su Man and you? Why did she tell you this?"
Daouria said lightly: "Suman is my daughter, and it is precisely because she is my daughter that she will send her to the queen as a personal maid."
Tang Xiaohao roughly calculated the time: "You are old this year?"
Daouria smiled, "I'm a lot older than you think."
Tang Xiaohao saw that Daouria was unwilling to answer, so he stopped asking, "And then?"
Dauria said, "When I saw that Suman's affairs were discovered, the old king Tohetai was furious, so he did not allow Suman to leave the queen's bedchamber again, and I did not see Suman until the queen gave birth to Princess Baomeng, and I saw Suman in chaos, because the queen's bedchamber, which was the palace where she lived, was burned clean by fire."
Dauria remembered that night when he saw a fire burning in the direction of the queen's tent, he rushed to it, though he found a large number of guards trying to put out the fire
, but because of the lack of water in the first place, the little water stored does not play any role.
In the midst of the chaos, Dauria saw Suman sitting there in a daze, and immediately rushed forward to ask what was going on?
Suman grabbed his father Dauria's hand and said, "The queen gave birth to a princess, and then the queen was covered in fire, I don't know what's going on, I don't know ......."
Dauria immediately asked, "What about the princess?"
Suman looked around, "After I escaped with the princess in my arms, a man in a black cloak snatched the princess."
Daouria grabbed Suman: "So so? Aren't there guards out there?"
Suman just kept shaking his head, indicating that he didn't know anything.
Just as Daouria was about to continue, a dark shadow enveloped the two men.
Daouria looked up and saw that it was Tohetai wearing the armor of the clan king.
Tuohetai looked at the two of them coldly, and ordered the guards to take her away.
Ignoring Daour's pleading, Tohetai asked the Su guards to drag Suman away, and when Suman struggled to say something, he was knocked unconscious by Tohetai himself.
After that, Daouria never saw Suman again, and his request to meet the old king was denied.
Dauria was disheartened when he thought his daughter Suman must be dead, but he was more concerned about why Queen Durantuya caught fire after giving birth to a princess.
Tang Xiaohao was also puzzled when he heard this: "Fire and burn? It sounds like this matter has something to do with the death of the eldest prince and the second prince later, it's all so weird."
After Tang Xiaohao learned of the death of her eldest brother and second brother from Bao Meng, her first reaction was murder, which was definitely not the so-called divine punishment.
Daouria was a little surprised: "Your thoughts are the same as Tang Anshu at that time. After the accident of the eldest prince, I realized that something was not quite right, but at that time, I did not have anyone to trust, I thought about it, and thought of Tuobi'er, that is, Tang Anshu, and I could only discuss with him."
At that time, although the staff was disbanded and Tang Anshu lost his official position, he lived in seclusion in Hacha City, which was barely a big hiding.
But just when Daouri was about to go to Tang Anshu, Tang Anshu took the initiative to appear in front of Daouri.
