The old Duke looked at Xu Zhizhou with concern. Was he not ill? Was he poisoned? Who poisoned him?

Black-haired man looked carefully but could not see anything. Grandma Wuxu saw it and asked Xu Zhizhou: "Is it true that no matter what medicine you take, your illness will not work?"

Xu Zhizhou smiled bitterly: "Yes! No matter what medicine I take, it doesn't work."

"Have you tried to find the Gu King of Nanyun Kingdom to find a solution?"

Hearing this, Xu Zhizhou took a half step back in shock. He looked at Granny Wuxu in horror and said, "You mean, I've been poisoned by a Gu?"

Granny Wuxu nodded slightly: "That's what I think."

Milk ball followed closely behind: "Yes, you, are poisoned."

Xu Zhizhou didn't know whether to cry or laugh for a moment. If he was not sick, he would laugh. But if he was poisoned by a poisonous insect, he would cry.

It is not easy to clean up the poisonous insects, and not everyone can remove them from the body.

The old Duke and all the old soldiers were almost terrified at the mention of Gu. Whoever came into contact with that thing would die.

Xu Zhizhou was very puzzled: "How did I get poisoned? Three years ago, in order to avenge a woman who was kidnapped and killed by a Hasa man, I ordered people to capture the man and behead him. Soon after, I started to fall ill. Could it be that I was poisoned at that time?"

"Yes, at that time." Naituanzi nodded vigorously, walked to his side, patted his chest to comfort him, "Don't be afraid, I can cure it."

"Really?" Xu Zhizhou picked up Chu Xiaoxiao and asked excitedly, "Can you really cure it?"

Li Sizu answered for her: "Master Xu! The Imperial Master will never break his word."

Granny Wuxu looked at Xu Zhizhou and said, "Actually, I can cure this small poisonous insect. It's not a big deal. There's no need for the Imperial Master to do it himself."

Naituanzi looked back at Grandma Wuxu and said, "Yes, Grandma, I can do it too."

The old Duke reminded his granddaughter: "The most important thing is to ask Lord Xu's adoptive parents whether he was adopted."

This statement awakened everyone, Huo Zhenyao rubbed his hands excitedly: "Your Majesty's suggestion is right, this matter must be resolved as soon as possible.

You were picked up by someone back then. You were not born in Raozhou, but in Dongshengbei. You are the eldest son of our Huo family. The day your mother gave birth to you, she was unlucky and encountered a surprise attack by the northerners.

Your mother was afraid that something might happen if she hid you with you, so she put you in a bush. After we drove the northerners away, when we went to look for you, you were gone.

We have been looking for you. If it weren't for the guidance of the Imperial Master, we would not have known that you were in Raozhou. The Imperial Master came here specifically for me to find you."

Xu Zhizhou saw that Huo Zhenyao was speaking with full confidence and evidence, so he believed it halfway. If for no other reason, just for the title of the Imperial Master, he should believe it.

It's just that his parents treat him very well, no matter what, he can't go back to the Huo family. He's already a grandfather, and he doesn't want to make a big fuss about it.

You could say he was unfilial or heartless, as long as he knew where he came from and where he was going, he should not change anything else, and he must not hurt his parents' feelings.

"You can ask my parents about this, but let me be frank. Even if I am really a member of the Huo family, I cannot go back to the Huo family." Xu Zhizhou said what he was thinking, "I have four sons, two of them are married and have children, and two are still single.

My parents have raised me with great difficulty, I can't just leave them and go. If I can, I will go and call my parents over, if not, forget it."

The old Duke turned to Huo Zhenyao and asked, "What do you think? Do you agree?"

"I agree." Huo Zhenyao looked at Xu Zhizhou, "I came here not to take you back to your ancestral home, but just to make sure you are still alive and well.

The Huo family is a military family. Your second and third brothers are serving with the prince and guarding the north. It doesn’t matter whether you go back or not.”

Everyone: “…”

Don’t the father and son intend to recognize each other?

If you have been apart for too long, it is meaningless to just stay together. If you didn't grow up together, there will be some estrangement. As long as you know that each other is doing well, it doesn't matter if you live together or not.

They are all military households, born to serve in wars, and there are many families who only see each other a few times in their entire lives.

"Okay! Then I'll go and invite my parents over." Xu Zhizhou held the baby in his arms and went outside to say a few words to the people around him. Then he came in and looked at everyone. "Wait a moment, they will be here soon."

Everyone sat down, and after a while, two elderly men in their sixties came in.

Xu Zhizhou put Chu Xiaoxiao down, led the two elders to sit down, and asked directly: "Dad! Mom! I want to ask you something. I hope you can tell me the truth, considering that I will not live long."

Old Mrs. Xu, with her hair full of silver hair, held Xu Zhizhou's hand and cried, her tears falling down.

"Son! What do you want to ask? I will tell you everything I know."

Old Master Xu nodded with red eyes: "Yes! What do you want to know? About your life experience?"

Xu Zhizhou looked at him in astonishment and asked in astonishment: "Dad! Why do you know I want to ask this?"

"We have nothing to hide from you. The only thing we are hiding from you is this matter." Old Master Xu glanced at the people present with a meaningful look, "They are here because of this matter too, right?"

Xu Zhizhou glanced at the person next to him, and that person immediately lowered his head. Old Lady Xu patted her son's hand and said, "Don't blame him for being too talkative. He only spoke because we asked him.

The Imperial Master is such a powerful person. You can hide your life story from heaven and earth, but you may not be able to hide it from the Imperial Master. We have heard that the Imperial Master is a very powerful person. "

[Ahaha! Am I really that powerful? How come I didn't know? The old couple from the Xu family are really good at flattering, I almost believed them. Why didn't they say that they had inquired about the news in advance and knew that Grandpa Huo was here to look for his son.]

Old Duke: "......"

I almost got cheated by her. It turns out I had already inquired about it.

Li Sizu touched Chu Xiaoxiao's head and felt that it was really good to be with sister Xiaoxiao, who was always giving him surprises.

"Mom! Then tell me about my life story." Xu Zhizhou was basically certain that he was the son of the Huo family, but he wanted to hear for himself what was going on.

Old Lady Xu: "Okay, then I'll tell you. After I gave birth to your elder sister and your second sister, I couldn't have any more children. I want a son.

I heard that there was a female doctor in the capital of Nanyun who was very good at treating women's diseases, so your mother went there with your father. When we got there, we showed our pass, but the soldiers at the city gate wouldn't let us in, saying that we were pariahs and were not allowed to enter the capital.

After dark, we couldn't bear to spend money on a hotel, so we went to a dilapidated temple outside the city. Unexpectedly, as soon as we entered the temple, we saw you thrown in a corner, crying with hunger.

Mother thought that this was a gift from God, so she brought you back. We were afraid that your identity would be suspected, so we deliberately kept you out for a while, saying that you were our biological child.

You were short since you were little, so no one suspected you. If someone hadn’t come looking for you, I wouldn’t have wanted to tell you this secret.”
