Chapter 385: I used an illusion for you, how could Yun Wei be so devoted to you?
Duan Laoer's wife called her children over at the kitchen door and cooked something for them.
The child was playful and agreed and ran away without a trace.
"Don't come back here, or I'll kill you."
"Mom, my uncle and the others have gone to the ancestral hall to help. I'll go over there to help too. Those who help will get steamed buns."
When Duan Laoer’s wife heard that there were steamed buns to eat, her eyes lit up.
"Wait for me to go there together."
"Mom, if you go over here and try to eat for free, they'll probably kick you out." The little guy, only seven or eight years old, counted on his fingers, "We've already kicked out more than a dozen people who tried to eat for free today."
Duan Laoer's wife: ... Which stingy person wouldn't even give them a bite of steamed bun?
"The scoundrel at the east end of the village was thrown out. I heard he broke his ankle."
Duan Laoer’s wife: “…” Oh my goodness, he didn’t even lose half a steamed bun, but he also lost an ankle bone?
"If I go, I'll kill them."
"Mom, then come here." The little guy rolled his eyes.
Duan Laoer's wife: "......" "I'm at home guarding the door. If there's no one at home, shouldn't someone be left to guard the door?"
After saying that, he turned around and went back.
Fu Xuanting and Duan Peiyan have arrived at Baijia Village.
I got off the car at the door of Fu’s house.
Duan Peiyan's calves felt like trembling. This was his first time coming into contact with the master of Yunheng Palace.
I have heard many stories about Yunheng Palace.
A few people drove away the Qing Gang of Nanli Kingdom and conquered Yonghe Town which was occupied by the Qing Gang.
It also allowed the villagers of Baijia Village to live a prosperous life.
He single-handedly defeated Prince Rui's men.
"Mr. Duan, come in." Fu Xuanting took the first step and saw Duan Peiyan staring at the words "Fu Mansion" on the lintel in a daze, and couldn't help but urge him.
Duan Peiyan came back to his senses.
"good."
He followed and walked in.
Shen Yunyue and Fu Xuanheng walked together from the backyard to the front yard, talking in low voices as they walked.
Fu Xuanheng put his arm around Shen Yunyue's shoulders.
With a smile on his lips, the cloak on his body covered Shen Yunyue.
"Let's have a good time during the Spring Festival this year. Long Yizhi said he would come back to Baijia Village in the next few days."
"The Nanli Kingdom has also been in turmoil recently. It is said that the wizards in the southern border have begun to rebel." Shen Yunyue recalled a few words in the letter the Queen wrote to her.
Recently, many wizards' disciples have entered the capital of Nanli Kingdom.
Many of the prime ministers were captured by the wizards.
Long Yizi has been very busy recently.
Shen Yunyue also sent someone to deliver some medicine just in case.
"The sign of chaos in the world must be disputes in various places, which may not be a bad thing for us." Fu Xuanheng's eyebrows were cold. He raised his eyes and saw Fu Xuanting and a young man standing by the screen wall.
Looking at Duan Peiyan coldly, Fu Xuanheng showed a hint of approval in his eyes.
He is indeed a good boy.
Fu Xuanheng is very sensitive to people. He can tell a person's character from his appearance and behavior.
Especially after entering the space.
"Brother, sister-in-law. This is Duan Peiyan from Duanjiazhuang." Fu Xuanting suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Duan Peiyan stepped forward and saluted.
"Yes. Let's go to the flower hall."
Fu Xuanheng still had his arm around Shen Yunyue's shoulders, and the two of them turned and walked towards the flower hall together.
Duan Peiyan and Fu Xuanting followed behind.
It was warm in the hall.
There are several pots of camellia placed around.
There are lush crabapple flowers blooming on the coffee table.
Some of the floor-to-ceiling windows are made of colored glass, and there is only one place where Shen Yunyue mixed in the glass. Everyone couldn't understand it and thought it was colored glass.
The bookshelf next to it is filled with all kinds of books.
After Duan Peiyan came in, he took one look and could hardly take his eyes off it.
He clenched his fists and forced his eyes away from the bookshelf.
"Sit down."
Four people sat at a square table.
The chair was padded with soft and thick cushions, and Mu Ya came over and served tea.
"Young Madam, the one you're soaking is a scarab beetle."
"It's just right to drink Jinguizi in winter." Shen Yunyue took it and whispered.
"Put a piece of ebony incense in the stove."
"yes."
Mu Ya walked to the side, opened the lid of the stove, and put a piece of ebony incense in it. After that, she walked out and closed the door of the flower hall.
Dong He, who was waiting for the errand in the corridor, said:
"Go get some snacks. Judging from the situation, Master Duan will be staying here for dinner. Have Xia He prepare the food for the guest."
"Sister Muya, I'll go right away."
After Donghe left.
Mu Ya put on the warm gloves and started to work on the embroidery work beside her.
This is the shoe upper made for Shen Yunyue.
Shen Yunyue likes to embroider various flowers on the uppers of shoes.
In the capital of the Great Zhou.
The retired emperor spat out a mouthful of blood and looked at the dark blood clot on the handkerchief with a gloomy face.
"The Emperor." An old eunuch looked at him in surprise.
"Your Majesty, please take care of yourself."
The retired emperor's eyes darkened. He picked up the wine glass, took a sip and rinsed his mouth.
"Jia Hua. Do you think Yun Wei has always hated me? That's why he gave birth to a bastard to piss me off. Now that the bastard is dead, his child is coming after me again."
He regretted it.
They shouldn't have had their property confiscated and they should have been exiled.
They should all be killed.
Jia Hua quickly knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, the young prince is also your grandson. He is a member of the royal family."
"Humph. Those who don't listen to me are all bastards."
"I have many children and grandchildren, so I don't need those rebellious children."
"Hahaha, that's easy. As long as you promise me, I will take care of your descendants for you." A voice came from far away.
"Who is it?" The emperor covered his chest with his hands. He felt more and more blocked here in recent days.
"Come, protect the emperor."
Jia Hua hurriedly stood in front of the emperor.
The hall was completely silent, and Jia Hua thought to himself that something was wrong and quickly shouted:
"Bold maniac, do you know where this is?"
A black shadow fell.
His hand created a gust of wind, sweeping Jia Hua aside.
The man was wearing a black robe and stood with his back to the emperor.
"Who are you?" the emperor shouted angrily.
The man had a cold look on his face. "Don't you recognize me? If I hadn't cast an illusion on you back then, how could Yun Wei have been so devoted to you?"
"How could she think you were that young man? Assisting you in reaching the pinnacle of power?"
The emperor fell to the ground.
How come he hasn't died yet? He was already old and gray-haired back then.
"You're not. He has white hair."
The old man turned around and asked, "Why? Don't you recognize me?"
The emperor clenched his fists and stared at the old man blankly. "What do you want?"
"Hahaha. It's so refreshing to cooperate with you." The old man spoke with a deafening laugh.
Jia Hua couldn't hold on any longer, spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.
The old man sneered.
"What's the point of keeping such a waste around?"
"That Yun Wei's child is dead?"
The Emperor sighed deeply, "My son is dead, but my grandson is still alive. I thought he would be bedridden even if he was poisoned, and would not die until we had used him up."
There was a cold light in his eyes.
"What a pity, he actually recovered." He poisoned Fu Xuanheng through the hands of the queen back then, and then he called him to the palace several times and lit incense in the palace to stimulate the poison in Fu Xuanheng's body.
"Waste." The old man cursed.
"How can I control the excessive ambition of recovered people?"
"What I want is a half-dead person, so that I can truly use him." The old man glanced at him coldly, and with a palm wind, the emperor landed next to Jia Hua.
His hands just happened to cover Jia Hua's eyes.
He screamed in fright.
"Mercy."
"I'll give you a packet of poison. This medicine is silent and odorless. As long as he smells it, even a great immortal will be useless. Find a chance to use it on him." The old man took out a packet of medicine from his arms and threw it next to the emperor.
"Immortal, I have been feeling unwell lately. Please give me some holy medicine."
The emperor is afraid of death.
He saw that the old man now had black hair and although his face looked sinister, he was in good health.
As long as I don't die, it's fine.
The old man walked over slowly and looked down at the emperor.
"You will become weaker and weaker if someone tampered with you."
The first person the emperor thought of was Shen Yunyue. He guessed that only Shen Yunyue would take advantage of the situation to do something.
"I know who it is."
The Emperor pounded his fist on the ground. "It's her."
"I'll help you deal with the rebellion, just like last time. You'll just need to double the amount, and use this packet of medicine as soon as possible."
The old man took out a pill from his pocket and threw it to the emperor. "Let me tell you one more thing. The mermaids were hunted and came to the East China Sea."
"Using the heart blood of the mermaid royal family as medicine can ensure eternal youth and prolong life."
"Isn't it said that mermaids live on the top of the icy sea, and outsiders can't find where they live?"
The old man laughed heartily, "Outsiders are naturally impossible to kill. Only by killing their own traitors from within can a tribe be quickly destroyed."
"Please understand this sentence carefully."
The old man left after saying this.
The emperor was left to slowly sit up.
Kill from the inside?
Only their own traitors?
He thought back to the people around Fu Xuanheng, and realized that the He family was no longer useful.
The Pei family and the Lu family were also excluded.
The only two are the Lu family and the Shen family, and the other two are Fu Xuansheng and Fu Xuanting.
Thinking of this, the emperor's lips curled up into a determined smile.
"Hehehe, hahahaha."
He laughed like a madman, "Yun Wei. I love you so much, and I dote on you so much."
"God let you die early so that you know how much I love you."
"How could you betray my love for you? My son is going down to accompany you. What should I do if I can't bear to kill my grandson?"
He swallowed the pill in his hand. The pill was too big, so he straightened his neck and exerted great force to swallow it.
The emperor picked up the wine jug on the table and drank half of it.
The exposed skin on the chest gradually turned red.
He let out a long sigh.
Walk outside barefoot.
"Someone come."
It was so cold that the palace servants guarding outside wore thick robes.
When I turned around, I saw that the emperor was wearing a very thin undergarment, with his chest skin exposed.
He opened the door barefoot.
"Call two palace maids in their twenties." The retired emperor sneered, "Tell the emperor to find a group of young concubines, preferably between 15 and 20."
"yes."
The palace maid hurriedly lowered her head and left.
He thought of something and said, "Someone come."
The Tiger Guards appeared.
"The Emperor."
"Take Jia Hua's body away. Also, find someone to go to Shihanzhou."
"yes."
"Before going to Shihanzhou, send it to me first."
"yes."
The Tiger Guards disappeared.
The emperor was very envious of people like the old man.
He appeared without a trace, and even the tiger guards, who were always elusive, were unaware of his comings and goings.
If so, it would be difficult for him to do so...
The emperor had hopes in his heart. It seemed that only by doing things well could he gain the old man's appreciation.
At present, apart from what the old man wants, the only thing left is to poison Fu Xuanheng.
Fu Xuanheng didn't know that he was being targeted again.
Otherwise, I will definitely say thank you for going out of your way to remember me.
The poison he had been given was very well behaved in his body, almost unbelievably well behaved. This had actually brought Fu Xuanheng an unexpected benefit.
He is no longer afraid of any poison.
After lunch.
Fu Xuanheng ordered someone to call the head of the Lu family.
Patriarch Lu has been busy with family matters these days and has not been going to Yunheng Palace every day.
The head of the Lu family arrived at the flower hall.
"Master Lu, please sit down."
Fu Xuanheng pointed to the seat next to him and said, "Come here, make a cup of Xueding Hancui for Patriarch Lu."
"yes."
In the flower hall, only Fu Xuanheng and Duan Peiyan were present.
Duan Peiyan went to the bookshelf and took a book to read. When he saw the head of the Lu family come in, he quickly put down the book and stood up to greet him.
"Master Lu, this is your new student. He is currently studying at the academy in Yonghe Town and is the top scorer this year." Fu Xuanheng gave a brief introduction.
When the head of the Lu family heard this, he thought the first place in the case was a good candidate.
He nodded immediately.
"Then let's go to Yunheng Palace to study tomorrow. Where do you live?"
Duan Peiyan hurriedly replied:
"Duanjiazhuang."
Patriarch Lu knew that Fu Xuanheng had spoken to him personally, which meant that this person was one of their own.
"It's quite a distance from Yonghe Town. Why don't you move to Yunheng Palace?"
"Okay." Duan Peiyan agreed immediately.
"It's just that my parents are sick, so I want to wait a few days before going to Yunheng Palace to study."
Fu Xuanheng frowned and said:
"Your parents have their own divine doctor in Medicine King Valley to treat them, so you are not allowed to enter. You should go to Yunheng Palace to study. You can get a good score in the provincial examination in the autumn after the new year."
"It won't delay the spring exam next year."
Fu Xuanheng made all the arrangements very clear.
A glimmer of hope arose in Duan Peiyan's heart. If he had not met Fu Xuanheng, he would not have dared to think so.
Usually by the spring exam, the youngest candidates are basically over 25 years old.
Shihan Prefecture is not like Jinyang Prefecture and the capital, where people from aristocratic families have been taught by famous teachers since childhood.
"Okay." Duan Peiyan agreed immediately.
