Xia Ruonan, armed with her knowledge of the future, transmigrated into Xia Miaoyuan, the doomed cannon fodder princess who dies early in the book.
The empress mother falls off a cliff to her ...
When Yue Haoyun saw that someone among the rescued people actually recognized him, his heart suddenly tightened and he stared at the person in a daze.
Just as he was stunned, the man had already crawled to Yue Haoyun using his hands and feet.
"Your Highness! It's really you!" The man panted and raised his head with difficulty to look at Yue Haoyun, with joy in his eyes.
"Who are you!" Xifeng was eager to protect his master, so he shouted loudly and stood in front of Yue Haoyun.
At this time, Jin Hu, who was standing behind the Second Prince, pointed at the man on the ground and exclaimed, "Huh? Aren't you the boss? You actually know the eldest prince?"
At this time, Boss Gan was already out of breath because he was too excited just now and had forced himself to walk such a long distance. He covered his chest with his hands, collapsed on the ground, and couldn't utter a word.
Seeing this, Yue Haoyun hurriedly ordered, "Quick, help him up first and let him rest. This king wants to ask him something."
The Second Prince waved his hand towards Jin Hu and said, "Quickly call Divine Doctor Yin and have him take a look."
Soon, Gan Lao Da was helped to sit in the pavilion in the yard, and Yin Xizi came over with a medicine box to examine him.
After taking his pulse, Yin Xizi said, "He's been poisoned for too long. Although he's been cured, he's very weak and there's still some residual poison in his body. I'll use a gold needle to prick his blood and expel the toxins."
As he spoke, Yin Xizi took out the golden needles and gave Gan Lao Da a few injections on his head.
After two cups of tea, Boss Gan coughed violently and spat out a mouthful of black blood.
Everyone was shocked. Yin Xizi said, "That was poisonous blood."
Everyone was relieved.
Boss Gan wiped the black blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at Yin Xizi: "Thank you, doctor, for saving my life!"
Yin Xizi knew that Yue Haoyun and the others had something urgent to ask, so she quickly packed up her medicine box, waved to Boss Gan, and left.
At this time, Gan Lao Da was in better spirits.
He knelt down and bowed to Yue Haoyun and the Second Prince again.
Yue Haoyun looked at the man and saw that he was of medium build, with a bald head and face. He must have had his hair shaved by the secret guards.
He was wearing a set of linen clothes, which he must have changed into when he was rescued here.
Looking at the face again, it was a round face, which had been washed clean, and you could see that the eyebrows and eyes were very delicate.
Looking more closely, the face seemed familiar, but I couldn't place it.
"Who are you? Why do you know me?" Yue Haoyun looked confused.
"Grand Prince, it's me! Yuhua Palace, Zhou Dagan... Your Highness, do you still remember?" When Gan Lao Da said this, his eyes turned red and he started crying.
Yue Haoyun frowned, his eyes deep, as if lost in memories. He stared at Boss Gan's face and murmured, "Are you Zhou Dagan from Yuhua Palace? Eunuch Sun's godson?"
At this time, Gan Lao Da was already crying, "Yes, I am Zhou Da Gan, the godson of Eunuch Sun!"
The Second Prince and others standing by were horrified at the sight.
Xia Miaoyuan was also stunned. [Wow, there are former palace maids here?]
[Huh? Why were palace maids also captured and used as test subjects for the Gu test?]
[I remember that the Dai Viet Emperor's usual residence was called the Yuhua Palace. Was this person once a subordinate of the Emperor?]
"That's even weirder. Could it be that he was sent to that place because he angered the emperor?"
[Eh...Isn't the Dai Viet Emperor that perverted?]
Yue Haoyun stepped forward, helped him up, and said softly, "Zhou Dagan, no matter what kind of torture you've suffered before, you are safe now. Don't be afraid."
"Now, tell me what's going on. Why were you taken to such a place?"
Yue Haoyun helped him sit down, but Zhou Dagan refused to sit. Yue Haoyun had no choice but to let him stand in front of him.
Zhou Dagan was about to speak, but as if he remembered something, he turned his head and looked at the Second Prince and others warily.
Yue Haoyun immediately understood that he was afraid that what he said might be heard by others, so he said, "They are all our own people. This time it was this young master who sent people to rescue us."
After hearing Yue Haoyun's words, Zhou Dagan finally spoke up, "Your Highness, seven years ago, after the late Emperor Long Yu passed away, I and several of the younger brothers from the Yuhua Palace had hoped that if we could gain the favor of the new Emperor, we could continue to serve in the Yuhua Palace."
"But before the new emperor could hold his succession ceremony, several young eunuchs from our Imperial Palace, along with my master, were knocked unconscious and taken away."
"When I woke up, I found that we had been bound, gagged, and taken out of the city."
"After that, we were sent to a strange place. Later, from listening to the guards' conversation, we learned that it was the witch's place, and we were there specifically to test new Gu."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but feel nervous, and at the same time, they had many doubts.
It was truly astonishing that a eunuch from the Dai Viet Imperial Palace was actually sent to be used as a test subject for a witch.
Yue Haoyun was in a complicated mood, but he suppressed his emotions and asked, "What happened next?"
Zhou Dagan wiped his tears with his sleeve and said, "Later, my servant, Master, and brothers were poisoned by them and suffered terribly."
"For seven years, I witnessed them die one by one under the torture of the poisonous insects."
"There were eight of us in the beginning, but in the end, only this servant was left."
Hearing this, the Second Prince couldn't help but ask, "So, you persisted there for seven years?"
Zhou Dagan nodded, "Exactly."
The Second Prince asked again, "How could you endure the torture of the poisonous insect for seven years?"
Xia Miaoyuan glanced at the Second Prince and said, "Second brother is being quite cautious right now. Is he afraid that Zhou Dagan is making things up?"
Zhou Dagan raised his head, his eyes a little cold, as if he was angry at the second prince's question.
"Normal!" Suddenly, a female voice came.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and found that it was Chunyu Yilan.
"When I was helping him remove the poison, I discovered that he had an internal force within him."
"That means he must have practiced martial arts before, and cultivated both internal and external strength, so his internal strength is quite good."
Chunyu Yilan said this, looked at Zhou Dagan, raised an eyebrow and said: "Well? Am I right?"
Zhou Dagan saluted her and said, "That's right. My hometown is Cangcheng, which is a place known for martial arts. No matter whether you are a man or a woman, old or young, you will know a few moves."
"Before I was sent to the palace, I also practiced martial arts with my grandfather for ten years. Although my internal strength is not very deep, it is still quite good."
"Therefore, I can use my inner strength to protect myself, and that's why I've survived until now."
Yue Haoyun looked at Zhou Dagan with mixed feelings, patted him on the shoulder and said, "This can be considered as God's will! You survived. Otherwise, who would have known that the eight eunuchs who served as personal servants to the late emperor would be harmed to such a state?!"
