Chapter 36: Lost Soul
Wei Rong found the replaced disaster relief grain, and all that was left was to meet up with Marquis Wu'an. His mission was mostly completed, and the rest depended on how King Cheng would proceed.
King Cheng had no idea that the relief grain he had exchanged for had been found.
Instead, he was immersed in the beautiful dream of seizing the throne and ascending to the throne.
Wu'an Hou Jiang Che secretly met with Wei Rong. Wei Rong was wearing a human skin mask, and he didn't recognize him at first.
Wei Rong bowed slightly to Marquis Wu'an. Jiang Che was considered his elder. When his father was alive, he often told him that this man was a master in military operations, cared about the people, and was a rare pillar of the country.
Wei Rong has always respected these people.
This was also the first time that Jiang Che had contact with Wei Rong. He had been outside the Great Wall for many years, but now, forced by the situation, he came to the disaster-stricken area in the south, with his confidant taking charge on his behalf.
The two talked all night long. Jiang Che looked at the morning light outside the window, stood up, and had a smile on his face.
After a night of conversation, Jiang Che not only admired Wei Rong but also had deep respect for him.
He clapped his hands and said, "Wei brat, I, Jiang Che, really underestimated you before. Those good reputations of yours are not false at all!"
The pain in his shoulder made Wei Rong silent. He could only raise the corner of his mouth with a forced smile, "My Lord, you are too kind."
After the two men met, Wei Rong knew that King Cheng's men would definitely send people here to transport grain.
It is impossible to transport all of this grain, so it can only be transported in batches, a portion at a time.
The people Jiang Che brought changed into the clothes of bandits in the bandit camp.
The bandits from Tufeng Village were taken into custody.
Wu Da's meridians were blocked and his limbs were tied, like a lamb on the chopping board waiting to be slaughtered.
Calculating the time, it's almost time for people over there to come and transport grain.
His face was dead, and he couldn't figure out who that ordinary-looking rich boy was.
It can now be basically confirmed that he was sent by the imperial court.
What puzzled him the most was that the mechanism of the secret room's door could be opened so easily. And the box containing the account books, the exquisite locks on it were all made by Guan Daozi, a famous martial artist. Without the special techniques he taught, it was impossible to open it.
However, the opened secret room door and the account book produced by the man's men all showed that their men had opened it easily.
This person is surrounded by many experts.
If King Cheng really confronted such a person, Wu Da thought, his dream of becoming emperor would be shattered. Thinking of this, a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The master Wu Da mentioned was lying on the bed at this time, his whole body stretched out like a pancake, with sharp claws sticking out from the pads of his flesh, opening and closing in the air.
Why is the weather here so hot and stuffy?
There is a warm and cool jade bed in the Duke's Mansion, and you won't feel hot at all when you lie on it.
But now that I’m out, of course, the conditions are no longer there.
When Wei Rong entered the room, he saw Ah Fu with his belly up and his paws spread out. The fatigue in his eyes gradually disappeared.
Hearing the noise, Yun Fu turned around and saw Wei Rong, dressed in black and with a high ponytail, walking in.
The man was not wearing a human skin mask, and Yun Fu was stunned by his outfit.
The whole person is like a tall green bamboo, with a straight back, broad shoulders and narrow waist. A dagger engraved with intricate patterns is hung on his waist. The black tights are like a sharp sword ready to be unsheathed at any time. The youthful spirit is mixed with the heaviness of a superior, which makes people reluctant to look away.
Wei Rong looked at the pair of bright cat eyes staring straight at him. He always knew that his Ah Fu loved his appearance very much.
He walked into the house and took out a round orange stone from his arms.
"Here, put this under you."
The cool touch coming from the orange stone made Yun Fu, who was feeling extremely hot, feel a lot more relaxed instantly.
"Meow?" What is this?
Wei Rong pinched the little fellow's paw and said, "The topaz found in the bandit's den may not feel as good as the ones in the mansion. Be patient for now. I'll find you a better one after this is over."
Yun Fu knew that Wei Rong had not come back last night because he was busy with something important, but she didn't expect that he still remembered to find jade for her to cool down.
My heart feels as if it is covered with a layer of honey, so sweet.
Seeing that the handsome man cared about her so much, Yun Fu spread out her paws, exposing her belly, looking as if she was ready to be ravaged by him.
"Meow~" Touch it~
Wei Rong looked at Ah Fu with his belly and paws spread out, and his eyes darkened.
"Then I'll... not be polite."
Yun Fu meowed to indicate that you’re welcome.
But the next moment, Yun Fu's whole body was enveloped in a cool and light fragrance.
The feeling coming from my stomach, that is...
Yun Fu froze for a moment, and when she was about to struggle, Wei Rong had already stood up.
Before, he just used his face and nose to rub against her, but this time, Wei Rong actually kissed her belly...
Yun Fu felt even hotter, and the coolness brought by the stone next to her had no effect.
He couldn't help but cover his face with his paws and curl up unconsciously.
"Ouch~~" It's so embarrassing!
She just let him touch her, not... kiss her.
Looking at the cat that was already embarrassed, Wei Rong couldn't help but lower his head and kissed its little paw.
Then he got on the bed sideways and held the whole cat in his arms.
I didn't sleep last night, and I have something to do later, so I can't carry it with me all the time. I can only kiss and hug it now to satisfy my craving.
Ever since he got Afu, Wei Rong felt that simply touching and stroking its fur at the beginning could no longer satisfy it. Every time he saw it, he wanted to kiss and rub it, like a drug addict.
"Ah Fu, be good. Let me hold you and take a nap."
Yun Fu noticed the dark circles under the man's eyes. He hadn't returned home last night, which was equivalent to a sleepless night. Judging from his attire, he might have something else to do later.
The original intention of struggling was replaced by stretching out a claw to pat the man's tired brow.
"Meow~" Go to sleep~
Wei Rong closed his eyes and felt the touch on his eyebrows. His eyebrows relaxed and the corners of his lips unconsciously rose.
Yun Fu adjusted herself to a comfortable position, held the stone that Wei Rong had found for her in her arms, tilted her head, and fell asleep.
Wei Rong closed his eyes for a while, then opened them and felt a slight itch on his neck.
Looking down, he saw the furry little creature with its entire head pressed against him.
Carefully getting up and placing the little fellow down, Wei Rong placed the jade stone next to her paws for it to hold.
Wei Rong sighed lightly. After returning to Beijing, Mr. He should give him an answer.
Ah Fu is not a monster, so there is only one possibility left.
Jing'an City, Zhu family.
Mr. Zhu made six appeals and finally invited Dr. He.
Looking at He Zhixian, who had white hair and a long beard, Master Zhu's face was full of respect.
"Mr. He, please take care of the child."
He Zhixian acted like a miracle doctor and nodded.
Zhu Chenye looked at the white-haired old man's arrogant face with suspicion in his eyes.
He whispered in his father's ear, "Dad, can this old man really cure my cousin?"
Zhu Qingze gave his son a sharp look, signaling him to shut up.
Mr. He used to be close to Prince Wei. He was an expert in medicine and had a great reputation. This was not something that a junior could fabricate.
He Zhixian was led by Mr. Zhu's wife to a courtyard.
When I saw the child again, he was much thinner than the first time I saw him. The baby fat on his cheeks was almost gone, and even his long, slightly curly hair had lost its original luster.
Lv Fanglin's pretty face was filled with worry as she spoke softly, "Divine Doctor He, I'm leaving Fu'er in your care."
Fuer?
When He Zhixian heard the name, he immediately thought of the little guy raised by Wei Xiaozi.
He Zhixian waved his hand and said, "This child's pulse is strange. It's the first time I've seen it. I dare not make any conclusions about whether it can be cured."
I took his pulse again, and just like the first time, it was still steady, as if he was asleep.
He took out a silver needle and signaled the maid to help the man up.
Lu Fanglin stepped forward and said softly, "Let me do it."
The girl's head was almost covered with silver needles.
Just as the last silver needle fell, the girl who had originally closed her eyes slowly opened them.
Her round almond-shaped eyes were distinct in black and white, and her whole body looked like a porcelain doll carved out of jade, delicate and fragile.
Those dark eyes were gray and colorless, as if they had lost their souls.
When Lu Fanglin saw her niece open her eyes, a hint of surprise crossed her face.
"Miracle doctor! Fu'er..."
He Zhixian stretched out his hand and waved it in front of the girl's eyes, then moved a silver needle.
The girl opened her eyes, but still did not respond.
He Zhixian confirmed it and removed the silver needles from the little girl's head.
After the silver needle was removed, the little girl closed her eyes again and fell asleep as before.
He Zhixian packed up the silver needles and stood up. "I can't cure this disease. I should find a great monk. This child has lost his soul."
After leaving these words, He Zhixian strode away.
