Chapter 455 Returning Home
Mrs. Song opened and closed her mouth, but said nothing.
She seemed to finally understand what Yang Xinlan's strengths were.
She knows right from wrong.
She loves Huo Zhennan and is willing to sacrifice her life for him, but she will not disregard everything for love and be foolish and selfish.
No wonder, no wonder the Huo family was able to win the hearts of the people, enter the capital, and become the masters of Dongyang.
How could such a monarch not be supported by the people?
Unlike Zhang Wenting and his ilk, who would betray their country just for a little bit of jealousy in their hearts!
Mrs. Song originally felt that she was also responsible for Zhang Wenting's situation.
I don’t feel that way anymore.
There is nothing wrong with a man who can't even distinguish between the interests of his country and his family. If he makes a mistake, he should pay the price!
"I am confused. I don't ask for anything."
Mrs. Song no longer felt that she owed Zhang Wenting. At this moment, she was just confused. The whole family would be driven out of the capital, and they would have no place to shelter from the wind and rain. What should she do?
"Mrs. Song."
Li Yuzhi added, "Although Zhang Wenting is unlikely to let you go, you saved my father-in-law, and you are indeed indebted to us. I can discuss with my husband and leave the house to you. At the same time, if anyone bullies your family in the future, you can come to the Huo family for help."
"Okay, thank you, thank you."
What else could Mrs. Song not be satisfied with!
"Huo Zhennan is hidden in the woods in the backyard where I worship Buddha. I'll take you there, but it's best to bring fewer people."
On the way, Mrs. Song told what had happened.
At the beginning, Huo Zhennan was locked in a secret room, fed poison, and had no food or water for seven days and seven nights. He was almost dying.
Liu Fu, who was beside the late emperor, found an opportunity and rescued the person.
But the palace was controlled by Yan Mingyu's men, and he could not be transported out of the palace. In desperation, he was sent to the Beast Garden.
It's impossible to hide people there, and it's also the place most easily overlooked.
But Liu Fu knew that Feng Jue, the beast tamer there, could mobilize the wild beasts to provide cover.
Moreover, during a performance, a wild beast went crazy and Feng Jue was almost bitten to death by it. It was Huo Zhennan who saved him.
Liu Fu could only take a gamble that Feng Jue would remember his favor and help cover it up. When he had the chance, he would find someone to carry it out of the palace.
Unexpectedly, Feng Jue remembered the favor and hid Huo Zhennan, but Liu Fu no longer had the chance. He was killed by Yan Mingyu when he returned.
Feng Jue was also very powerful. He killed a bear, peeled off the bear skin completely, and stuffed Huo Zhennan into the bear skin.
Next, he looked for someone who could transport Huo Zhennan out of the palace.
Mrs. Song mentioned someone that the old lady had never expected.
It was Princess Hua'an, the one who hated her the most in the past.
Princess Hua'an is a widow, and the second widow at that. She is rumored to be unlucky in marriage, and has no one in her family. Apart from the empress dowager in the palace, she has no one to rely on.
He usually stays at home and rarely goes out. His prime years have passed like his twilight years.
She hated Yang Xinlan because she and Yang Xinlan were two extremes.
The happier Yang Xinlan is, the more pitiful she is.
In the past, I had often ridiculed Yang Xinlan on some occasions.
The old lady never bothered with her.
He is also a poor man.
She knew that Princess Hua'an loved Huo Zhennan, and a woman's eyes could not lie.
But Princess Hua'an is a noble person and would not do anything shameful.
Therefore, I have never revealed it in front of others.
The old lady pretended not to know.
Isn’t it normal for a good man to be admired by many women?
Why bother revealing people's secrets?
I never expected that Feng Jue was looking for Princess Hua'an?
Feng Jue knew that Princess Hua'an loved Huo Zhennan.
So when Princess Hua'an was invited to the palace by the Queen Mother, she secretly told her about this matter.
Princess Hua'an agreed without even thinking about it.
She told the empress dowager that she often felt weak and the doctor said that eating bear paws and bear meat would replenish blood and qi. She went to the zoo and saw a bear that was dying, and asked if it could be given to her as a reward.
The Queen Mother agreed without hesitation and asked her to take away some small animals to replenish her qi and blood.
Princess Hua'an pulled a cart full of half-dead animals and walked out of the main gate openly.
Afterwards, she found a doctor and detoxified Huo Zhennan.
However, the toxins have been in the body for too long and have caused irreversible damage.
Huo Zhennan lost all his martial arts skills and his brain was damaged, and he became an idiot.
This spring, the Queen Mother granted Princess Hua'an another marriage despite her opposition. She had no choice but to bring Huo Zhennan to the forest where Madam Song was worshiping Buddha.
The two were close friends, and their friendship was naturally very good. Also, since Mrs. Song had not met Zhang Wenting for a long time, her side was also very suitable for hiding people.
There was an extra bear around, and the maid who came to deliver food knew that it was the sick bear that Princess Hua'an brought out of the palace, so she didn't ask any more questions.
Mrs. Song kept such a huge secret for such a long time.
No one could have imagined that Huo Zhennan, who was being searched for by several parties, actually completed the relay among a few inconspicuous people and survived with difficulty.
The old lady almost passed out from heartbreak after hearing this.
When he saw Huo Zhennan locked in a cage, he was in excruciating pain.
"I'm sorry, I'm afraid of being exposed, so when I go out, I always put bear skin on him and lock him in a cage." Mrs. Song said hesitantly.
No wonder she didn't let too many people come, and when entering the house, she only let the old lady in.
The once mighty god of war was now curled up in a bear skin, like a dying beast, locked in a cage.
If the Marquis was sober, how could he be willing to live in such humiliation!
The old lady tore at the bearskin, sobbing loudly.
"I'm sorry, my Lord, I'm sorry for not finding you sooner.
I'm back, let's go home, go home..."
The bear skin was peeled off.
The people inside had dirty and tangled hair, were skinny, had dull eyes, and smelled bad.
It is hard to recognize him as the once energetic and piercing Huo Zhennan.
"I'm sorry, he won't let me touch him. He screams if I do, so I don't dare to clean him up."
The old lady could no longer hear what Mrs. Song said.
She hugged Huo Zhennan and cried.
Huo Zhennan looked dazed and stupid, but he didn't scream like usual.
"I'm hungry..." he said.
"Third brother, come in!" the old lady shouted outside.
