Fu Xiaoyu felt extremely sorry for Cui Yulu as she frantically dug in the soil. He directly applied pressure to her pressure point to induce sleep and then held her in his arms.
"You don't need to worry about what happens next. Just get a good night's sleep."
After saying that, he grabbed her and flew away. The guards behind him buried Xu Zhengfan on the hilltop. At that moment, the sun came out and the sunlight shone on his face and body. Many butterflies flew around to see him off.
No one noticed that in the dense forest not far away, a beautiful young girl stood, surrounded by butterflies. At this moment, she was silently looking at Xu Zhengfan's grave, tears quietly sliding down her face.
In the end, we still missed each other.
But once you miss out, it's for a lifetime.
Looking at the scene before her, Hu Die felt a mix of emotions. At this moment, she began to doubt whether Lu Changfeng was really doing it for their own good, or if He Xian was not.
Through her interactions with Fu Xiaofan over the past few days, she increasingly felt that Lu Changfeng was not a good person.
If he wanted revenge, he should have gone directly to Fu Xiaoyu. Why drag so many innocent people into this?
She finally understood, but at this moment she didn't want to help him anymore.
Having made up her mind, Hu Die quickly disappeared into the woods.
The young emperor has been drugged by her and is still unconscious. She needs to hurry back and give the antidote to Fu Xiaofan, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.
When Fu Xiaoyu carried Cui Yulu back to the villa, they ran into Xu Wanqing.
"She's injured?"
"Yes, go find the legendary doctor Ji Xiaotang."
Fu Xiaoyu didn't talk to Xu Wanqing any longer, but instead instructed his servants to go find Ji Xiaotang.
When Lai Guitou saw that Cui Yulu was still the same, he took out the pills that his master had given him and wanted to give them to Cui Yulu.
“You blockhead! You can’t take too much of Master’s medicine, or the consequences will be unimaginable. This Yulu poison is a Gu poison, and the current situation must have damaged his brain. We can’t use any more pills. What we need to do now is to quickly find that old witch and get the antidote.”
Xia Lan'er's words awakened Lai Guitou, and after speaking, the two of them looked at Fu Xiaoyu at the same time.
Fu Xiaoyu remained silent. It couldn't be that simple. Since they had used this method, they wouldn't give her the antidote so easily.
Moreover, he injured Lu Changfeng last night, so he's bound to retaliate fiercely now.
The easiest one to get is Cui Yulu.
By activating the Gu worms, one can easily exploit one's weaknesses.
"Since Your Highness is silent, it means you approve of our actions. Let's go find that old man."
Lai Guitou remembered his master's instructions. This time they would definitely encounter even greater danger, so even if Fu Xiaoyu didn't say anything, he would start to take action.
We can't just stand by and watch Cui Yulu suffer.
Fu Xiaoyu kept a close eye on Cui Yulu's changing expression and didn't pay any attention to Lai Guitou and the other two.
Xu Wanqing brought ginseng soup to Fu Xiaoyu.
"Your Highness, you haven't slept all night. Why don't you have some ginseng soup to refresh yourself?"
"Put it down."
Fu Xiaoyu ignored the bowl of ginseng soup, and Xu Wanqing knew it would turn out this way. Looking at his somewhat haggard expression, her heart ached terribly.
"Your Highness, this can't go on. She won't wake up. Are you going to ruin your health like this?"
Xu Wanqing tried to persuade him gently, but she couldn't get his attention.
"You can go out first. I want to stay with Yulu for a while."
Fu Xiaoyu looked at Cui Yulu, who was sleeping very restlessly, and got up to hold her in his arms.
I fed her the ginseng soup spoonful by spoonful.
This made Xu Wanqing extremely upset.
She had specially prepared this for him, and now not only did he not thank her, but he also gave her his heartfelt gift to another woman.
A bittersweet feeling welled up inside me.
She said nothing more and turned to leave.
However, at this moment, several black figures suddenly appeared in the courtyard, which caused all the guards to begin attacking these figures. Xu Wanqing saw two black figures heading towards the emperor's room.
"Your Highness, someone is plotting to harm the Emperor."
Fu Xiaoyu knew that Lu Changfeng would not let this go.
He had no choice but to put Cui Yulu down and quickly got up to follow Xu Wanqing toward the Emperor's courtyard.
What they didn't know was that the moment they left, three shadowy figures had already sneaked into Cui Yulu's house.
They waited for them to leave before taking action.
All the guards around here were transferred to the emperor's courtyard by Xu Wanqing, leaving this area empty.
This gave them the opportunity.
Taking advantage of the chaos, the shadowy figure wrapped Cui Yulu in a bag and quickly disappeared into the courtyard.
After succeeding here, the shadowy figures in the emperor's courtyard also began to retreat.
When Fu Xiaoyu arrived at the Emperor's courtyard, she found him with Hu Die, unharmed.
"Sixth Brother, what brings you here?"
The emperor, dressed in a dark undergarment, was being helped by Hu Die to rinse his mouth and prepare to put on his outer garment.
Seeing Fu Xiaoyu arrive with his entourage, he looked at Fu Xiaoyu with a face full of doubt.
"It's nothing, just a routine patrol. I didn't expect to disturb Your Majesty. It's my fault."
"Sixth Brother, what are you saying? You're only doing this for my safety, how could it be considered disturbing me?"
Fu Xiaoyu simply bowed and glanced at Hu Die behind Fu Xiaofan, a glance that carried a rather meaningful connotation.
Hu Die's hands trembled slightly as she adjusted the emperor's clothes, but she quickly regained her composure.
"Since Your Highness has nothing else to do, please go back. I will help His Majesty change his clothes."
Hu Die spoke gently as she draped the emperor's outer robe over his shoulders.
Fu Xiaofan knew that Hu Die didn't like outsiders around, so he gently took her hand.
His eyes remained fixed on her.
"Sixth Brother, I'm fine here. You should go patrol other areas. I'll call you if anything happens."
He phrased it very euphemistically, but it simply meant that he couldn't come unless summoned.
Fu Xiaoyu bowed and withdrew.
"How did we get here? Are the guards still protecting the other courtyards?"
Xu Wanqing stepped forward and said to him, "Your Highness, all the secret guards have been mobilized here, and there is no one guarding the other courtyards."
Upon hearing this, Fu Xiaoyu knew that she had fallen into the enemy's trap of falling into the lake and into the mountain.
Their target was Cui Yulu from beginning to end, not Fu Xiaofan at all.
Thinking of this, he didn't dare to delay for a moment and hurried towards Cui Yulu's courtyard.
When he arrived at the courtyard, he found that everyone there had been drugged, including Ji Xiaotang, who was unconscious in the kitchen.
Fu Xiaoyu's unease grew stronger, and Xu Wanqing, seeing this, understood what was happening.
At this moment, her feelings were somewhat complicated. She felt sorry for Cui Yulu being taken away, but she was also happy, because this meant that Fu Xiaoyu could have her in his eyes again.
Fu Xiaoyu saw that the quilt was still lying on the bed, but the person on the bed was gone.
Just as he spoke coldly, a sharp arrow shot into a pillar inside the house with a whoosh.
A letter was still tethered to the arrow's fletching.
