Chapter 398 He is Lu Yunjue
Lu Yunjue is not dead!
When Liu Se saw the dagger fall to the ground, he took the opportunity to push the masked man away and ran out.
The masked man was hit in the wound and groaned in pain, then fell to the ground.
His eyes were dazed, as if he had suffered a great shock. He crawled on the ground twice but did not get up.
He had no choice but to reach out and grab the dagger that fell to the ground.
He thought that as long as he died, Liu Se would never go out and harm others again!
At this moment, a pair of sky-blue embroidered shoes appeared before his eyes.
Hu Xiner picked up the dagger, but did not give it to him. She held it in her own hand.
The masked man silently stretched out his hand and made a begging gesture.
Hu Xin'er's face was extremely pale, and she reached out to take off his mask.
The masked man turned his head away.
"Are you Lu Yunjue?" Hu Xiner wanted to speak, but felt like her throat was blocked by something. It took her a long time to utter a very soft question.
The masked man shuddered and shook his head vigorously.
In fact, when she first saw the masked man, Hu Xiner always felt that he had a familiar aura.
Now that she thought about it carefully, it was because his figure was too similar to Mu Qing's, but she had never thought about it in this way before, so she didn't notice it.
"I know you are it." Hu Xin'er bit her lip, "Yun Jue, you survived, right? I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."
If they had known that Lu Yunjue was being tortured here, the Lu family would have rescued him at all costs.
Thinking of how Liu Se had abused Lu Yunjue in front of her, she felt a surge of self-blame.
The masked man said nothing, but avoided her gaze.
"Yun Jue, our whole family misses you so much." Hu Xin'er bit her lip, her voice trembling. "If Mother and Mu Qing knew you were still alive, they would be so happy!"
The death of Prime Minister Lu is secondary.
The death of Lu Yunjue is an unshakable nightmare that lingers in the hearts of everyone in the Lu family.
He was a young man who was once famous in the capital, the dream lover of countless girls, and a trustworthy classmate and friend in Liu Yanchuo's eyes.
He was a good son who was filial to his mother and aunt and protected them at all costs.
Even though they had never met before, he was the relative who protected Mu Qing firmly in times of life and death.
The look that Lu Yunjue gave before his death, covered in blood but full of concern, became the reason why Mu Qing woke up in the middle of the night, and also the reason for his sigh when he touched his face.
The masked man's eyelashes trembled slightly.
Hu Xiner reached out again to take off his mask.
The masked man seemed to wake up and stepped back to resist: "Sister-in-law, please don't take it off! I'm too ugly and I don't want to scare you."
Calling her sister-in-law is an acknowledgement of his own identity.
Hu Xiner's mood was extremely complicated at this moment, then she reacted and stood up hurriedly.
"Let's go. We can't delay any longer." She took a deep breath. "Liu Se has escaped. We don't know if Mu Qing and the others will encounter any new dangers. We must hurry to rescue them!"
Unexpectedly, Lu Yunjue gently pulled her sleeve.
He said with some difficulty: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, they will not be in danger."
Hu Xin'er was puzzled: "Why do you say that? Although Duke Xuanyuan is here, the Crown Prince's cruelty is beyond everyone's imagination. It's hard to guarantee that he..."
Yin Li finally spoke: "I had already informed the emperor before I came here, so it's about time."
Then, he looked at Lu Yunjue: "You naturally know that you have been following me, so he is not anxious at all, right?"
Lu Yunjue's eyes flashed with panic for a moment: "I followed Pavilion Master Yin with no ill intentions, I just had no choice."
Yin Li walked up to him, grabbed his left hand, and then turned it over.
I saw a cinnabar mole on his wrist that was red and purple!
Hu Xin'er instantly remembered what Feng Ge had said before. He said that the real Lu Yunjue had a red mole on his wrist...
Could this also be a Gu insect?
Yin Li's face was solemn, and he muttered to himself, "It really is the 'Shadow Gu'."
"Shadow Gu? What is that?" Hu Xiner asked worriedly.
"You don't have to worry about that." Yin Li let go of Lu Yunjue's hand and put on a nonchalant look. "Your task now is to sit here and take care of your pregnancy, and chat with Lu Yunjue about family matters."
Hu Xin'er frowned and asked, "Is there anything you can't say? Is the situation particularly serious?"
Yin Li quickly unfolded her fan and shook it helplessly: "My dear Miss, if you worry so much, your children in the future will also worry too much!"
Hu Xin'er didn't want him to change the subject: "Hurry up and tell me!"
"I'll tell you when you're pregnant." Yin Li smiled and pulled her to the bedside and asked her to sit down.
"If you don't tell me, I will be even more worried!" Hu Xiner's voice was weak, but her eyes were unusually bright.
Yin Li started whistling and walked leisurely into Liu Se's cabinet to look through it, obviously not wanting to say anything.
Hu Xin'er looked at Lu Yunjue, who also avoided her gaze: "Pavilion Master Yin is right, sister-in-law, please take care of yourself. My brother and the others have the protection of the emperor, so nothing will happen to them."
"Since nothing will happen, why can't you take me out?" Hu Xiner really couldn't ask anything, but she was extremely anxious.
She gritted her teeth and said, "If you don't tell me, then Yun Jue will stay here to protect me, Yin Li, you go up and help!"
Yin Li snorted lightly: "I'm not your servant, why should I listen to you?"
Hu Xiner widened her eyes.
Yin Li took out a plate of red dates from the cabinet. After confirming that there was no problem, he took out one and stuffed it into Hu Xiner's mouth.
Hu Xiner wanted to spit it out, but suddenly frowned.
Yin Li said angrily, "You're having a miscarriage! If you keep imagining this, I'll knock you out."
Hu Xiner had no choice but to shut up.
In fact, Yin Li didn't mean to hide the truth, but he was afraid that Hu Xiner couldn't accept it.
Shadow Bone is also a kind of poisonous insect, but its effect is different from the previous bone-eroding insect.
When bone erosion occurs, it will devour a person's bones and blood, while shadow bone can make a person become the "shadow" of another person.
Any damage suffered by the master will be transferred to his shadow. The fate of the two is connected. As long as one of them dies, the poisonous insect in the other's body will explode, leading to death.
Generally speaking, since their fates are connected, the owner will take good care of his or her shadow.
But Yin Li didn't know how vicious and terrible Liu Se was. Seeing that Hu Xin'er's condition was not good, she didn't say it clearly to avoid Hu Xin'er getting a miscarriage.
He and Lu Yunjue looked at each other and understood each other tacitly.
"Everything is a cycle of cause and effect. You can't escape what is coming." Yin Li muttered this sentence and began to take Hu Xiner's pulse.
Then he took out a small jade box.
