Chapter 296 Being Targeted
After swallowing the medicine, Fu Zhaoning had already removed the needle.
Patriarch Hu felt a cool air flow in his lungs, and the stagnant feeling seemed to be cleared away.
This was the first time he had felt this lightness in the past few days.
He let out a long sigh, and only then was he able to look at Fu Zhaoning.
"Okay, this medicine and the acupuncture just now may be able to suppress it a little. Let me check your pulse again."
"Are you and Prince Jun still husband and wife now?" The old Patriarch Hu was able to speak only at this time.
"It counts now." Fu Zhaoning nodded, "I've been waiting for you to send the token over."
"A token of gratitude..." Patriarch Hu's voice was hoarse, "I will give it to you only after I see Prince Jun."
"I understand. How about I take you back to Prince Juan's Mansion now?"
Fu Zhaoning felt his pulse and felt a little depressed.
"If I go out, will I fall into their hands?"
"them?"
"The people in the palace, and my unfilial son and daughter-in-law."
"Is there anyone else?"
"There is an unknown force that is also looking for me in secret. I was injured by them. Their weapons are poisonous. I suspect they are from the Shenyi Sect. However, Princess Jun, you are young and you probably haven't heard of the Shenyi Sect."
The people from the Shenyi Sect also want to steal this token?
It's really shameless.
Fu Zhaoning could understand why the emperor wanted to snatch it. After all, he might think that the things left by the retired emperor should be inherited by him.
Hu Jiatai and his men were guarding the token and were thinking of embezzling it.
But what qualifications does the Shenyi Sect have?
What do the Zhaoguo royal family’s things have to do with them?
"If you take me out now, there might be a smell or something on me that they can detect. If we leave this environment, they might find me, and you might be in danger."
Patriarch Hu paused for a moment and then continued speaking.
"So don't take me with you. Go and call Prince Jun over. I'll tell him where the things are when I see him."
"The thing is not with you?"
"Of course it's not on me. How could I keep something on me when so many people are looking for me?"
"You can tell me and I will tell Prince Jun."
"I promised the emperor that I would hand the things over to him personally." Patriarch Hu refused to give in. "Go and call him quickly, or I don't know if I can hold on. Of the three tokens, the one I have is the most important. Without this one, the other two won't be of much use."
"Then I'll take you away," Fu Zhaoning called out to the outside, "Eleven, come in and carry the person."
Eleven walked in, still not coming back to his senses from his daze.
I really didn't expect that Fu Zhaoning would find the old master Hu in such a short time, and Lin Anhao was the one who saved the old master Hu by such a coincidence.
If she and Xie had not come out of the Lin family, they might not have mentioned this matter, and no one would know where the old head of the Hu family was.
Judging from his condition, if he continues hiding here, he will probably die of illness.
"I really can't go out. I'm covered in...
However, the old master Hu was unwilling to get up and leave.
"It's not safe for you to stay here. The entire capital has been searched thoroughly. Those people will find this place sooner or later."
"I must have a Gu on me!"
The old master of the Hu family suddenly shouted.
"insanity?"
Eleven immediately pulled Fu Zhaoning back a few steps.
In their eyes, Gu poison is very scary, because ordinary doctors cannot cure or save a person who has been poisoned, and the person may be controlled, and no one knows what he will do next.
Some poisons may be transferred to people around you instantly, making it difficult to guard against.
"That's why I said it's very likely to be a member of the Shenyi sect. If I move, the poison will take effect, and the mother Gu on their side will sense it and find me. I don't want to bring such a dangerous person to King Jun."
Patriarch Hu sighed, "Princess Jun, you are very courageous and have excellent medical skills. I don't want to implicate you."
Fu Zhaoning frowned, walked out from behind Eleven, and walked towards Patriarch Hu, "Thirteen, ask Chen Shan to take Aunt Xie away, and then go find Xiao Lanyuan."
"yes."
Thirteen ran out immediately.
Xie knew that Fu Zhaoning would have to stay here and wait, and she was very worried.
"Why don't you leave? It's getting dark soon and it's so spooky here."
"Miss, I have something else to do. You guys hurry to Prince Jun's Mansion. Chen Shan will tell the prince the address here."
"yes."
Chen Shan immediately turned the carriage around and drove away.
Xiao Lanyuan frowned slightly when he saw Xie in Fu Zhaoning's carriage.
"Prince Jun, our young lady is here. Please go there quickly." Chen Shan told Xiao Lanyuan the location and asked him to go there quickly. "Can you bring a few more guards with you? Prince Jun, I think it's a bit dangerous there."
Chen Shan was also very worried, but Fu Zhaoning once told him that when encountering any problems, she hoped that they would obey her orders first instead of thinking about what to do on their own.
Because sometimes their decisions are not as good as hers.
So he could only drive the carriage as fast as possible to find Prince Jun.
"I will be there soon."
Xiao Lanyuan immediately led his men to that direction.
When he was halfway there, he frowned and sent a message to the secret guard, "There's someone following us, go and deal with him."
Several secret guards immediately stepped aside to deal with it.
It seems that Prince Jun's Mansion has been targeted, so someone followed them as soon as they took action.
When the secret guards went to deal with the tail, Xiao Lanyuan realized that there was another group of people following them.
This time he made no move.
Let them follow. He suspected that not only those who were interested in the token were following, but also many people in the royal family wanted to know what kind of background he had now.
Everyone said he was a sickly and disabled prince, but after returning to the capital, the Dragon Shadow Guard shocked many people. He also directly and forcefully sealed off the Yuerong Tower. He did not show any fear in front of the emperor and the empress, and seemed very confident. Perhaps he had already attracted people's attention and vigilance.
In the past, Prince Jun’s Mansion had almost no presence, but in the past few months, it has become very eye-catching.
"Master Hu, let me examine you again."
Fu Zhaoning saw that Patriarch Hu's face was still gloomy even after being wiped clean. She felt something was not right, so she wanted to check his pulse carefully again.
Patriarch Hu shook his head.
"No, Princess Jun, I'm very grateful to you. I haven't coughed for a while, and I feel very relaxed. This is already very good."
"How did you know you were poisoned?" Fu Zhaoning asked.
"I know a little bit about poison, and also, this."
Patriarch Hu raised his right hand and showed her the back of his hand.
The back of his hand used to be a little dry and had many age spots, but now it is a little swollen, and the blood vessels are very obvious, and obviously purple-red.
