After the hero goes crazy

Chapter 335 Begging for Purple Pill

On the one hand, it was just an illusory promise, and the demon fox's curse was fulfilled several times, which did not bring any good things to Su Miaozhen, but made her situation worse.

On the other hand, it is about Liu Bingzhou's safety, so why hesitate?
But Yao Shouning is not Su Miaozhen after all. After Hu Ying's words fell, Su Miaozhen, who had obtained the right to choose, seemed to struggle for a while, and finally made up her mind:

"I want a reward."

She chose to help Liu Bingzhou to offer alchemy and get the reward of 'Unfeeling Kindness'.

As soon as the words fell, the faint flame of hope in Yao Shouning's heart dimmed instantly.

She was really disappointed in Su Miao.

Originally thought that Su Miao was really bewitched by the demon fox, so she did all kinds of wrong things before, but now it seems that the reason why she was bewitched by the demon fox was also because she was not firm in her heart.

It was the first time that Yao Shouning felt the complexity of human nature. Su Miaozhen's human nature was not lost, and she was not indifferent to Liu Bingzhou's life and death, but this did not affect her greedy heart.

"Oh?" The fox demon's expression was not surprised, but with sarcasm:

"Are you sure?"

"Sure." Su Miaozhen gradually became firm, "You are right, my grandfather is too partial."

People's hearts are really complicated. When the demon fox persuaded, Su Miaozhen was hesitant, but when the fox demon gave her the right to choose, she quickly made up her mind.

"What's more, it's just offering alchemy, which is also for saving people." Su Miaozhen said:

"If Gu Hou lives, my grandfather has made great contributions; if Gu Hou dies, then there is no one else to blame—" She paused for a while before continuing:
"Even if the emperor blames it, but my grandfather is a great Confucian, there will only be no danger, so why don't I want this reward?"

She thought that no one could hear her voice, so she didn't hide it.

Yao Shouning's expression was complicated, and then he heard Yaohu's wanton laughter:

"Humans are really cunning, and sometimes they are much better than monsters."

This conversation between one person and one fox is more of a "heart-to-heart" exchange, and after talking for a while, only a while has passed.

The red mist gradually disappeared, and the fox king and Su Miaozhen gradually became quiet.

Zheng Shi and Liu Bingzhou talked for a while, but they didn't know when to quit.

Yao Shouning suppressed the messy thoughts in his heart, looked at his grandfather, but saw that Liu Shi was a little uneasy, maybe because of his status as a visitor.

She was only interested in eavesdropping on the conversation between her cousin and the fox demon, but she neglected this side. When Fengchun took the cloak and came over, she asked:
"Mom, who's here?"

As soon as the words fell, a name appeared in Yao Shouning's mind: Gu Huanzhi.

Together with this thought, she herself was startled, and then a scene appeared in her mind again - a figure in a black cloak, coming from the rain strode into Yao's house.

When he raised his head, he pushed off the hat that covered his head and face, revealing the old man's thin cheeks.

His eyebrows are drawn into the temples, his eyes are big and energetic, he has a long beard, and his expression is calm and majestic. Even without the official robes, he still shows his noble air.

This is Gu Xiang in the Daqing Dynasty and the father of the current empress.

Yao Shouning had never seen him before, but now he was able to 'see' Gu Huanzhi's appearance with the help of his ability. It can be seen that her strength has improved after being tested by the demon fox.

"It's from the Gu family."

Mrs. Liu responded and urged the children to go into the house.

She is not the same as the previous daughter who didn't pay attention to the situation in the DPRK and China. She also probably knows that the three powers in the DPRK and China stand together.

The Yao family was originally a small family in Shendu City, but because of Liu Bingzhou, it is considered famous in the capital city.

But through the Xicheng case, the Yao family has been tied to the eldest princess' chariot, and the Liu family doesn't know why the Gu family came here tonight.

Yao Shouning, his brother, sister, and Su Miaozhen hid in the inner room after seeing each other. There was the sound of treading water outside, someone strode up the steps, and then a gust of night wind with moisture blew into the room.

In the sound of 'tick-tick', someone entered the house.

Yao Shouning stood curiously against the door of the inner room, raised a corner of the hanging curtain and looked out.

A man in a black hooded cloak was standing at the door of the house, wrapping his body tightly.

Where he was standing, the rainwater was dripping straight down, and soon formed a small puddle, centered on his feet, spreading to all sides.

A charcoal fire was lit in the room, and it was steaming.

Liu Bingzhou had already got up, Yao Hui was supposed to entertain guests on such an occasion, but he was seriously injured and could not get up to greet him, so Liu Shi followed his father.

The man stretched out a pair of slender and thin hands, and slowly took off the cap of the cloak, revealing a narrow and pale face.

His eyebrows were slanted, and under them were a pair of big eyes with slightly deeper sockets, which were deep, bright and energetic.

This is an old man in his sixties.

Even though he came late at night and was soaked by rain, his gray hair was still neatly combed and fixed with a suet white hosta.

There is a deep "Chuan" line between his eyebrows, but this does not affect his elegance, on the contrary, it adds a bit of calm and prestige to him.

Even though he restrained his aura deliberately, the inadvertent glance of his eyes still made Liu Shi feel a little nervous.

Gu Huanzhi's appearance was indeed consistent with what Yao Shouning 'saw'.

When she was amazed in her heart, Gu Huanzhi seemed to have discovered the sight hidden in the dark, and turned her head.

The powerful Prime Minister's gaze was as sharp as a knife, and the dim light did not affect him. He immediately found Yao Shouning's hiding place, as if removing the curtain covering her with his eyes, and brought her figure into his eyes.

If it is an ordinary person, if he sees it, he will be shocked and run away.

But Yao Shouning was very curious, and she seemed to have a premonition that Gu Huanzhi would find her, so when he saw her, she not only didn't hide, but opened the curtain very generously, revealing half of her face , smiling at him.

Gu Huanzhi's eyes froze for a moment, Yao Shouning seemed to see another scene through his eyes.

The girl's body lost control in an instant, 'her' felt uncontrollable joy and passion, her body swayed, as if she was sitting in a small boat.

Not long after, the boat stopped, and on the forward side, someone opened the curtain and shouted:
"Master, here we are."

Yao Shouning was a little panicked at first, but when he heard this, he vaguely realized that his soul seemed to be attached to the body of a certain 'Master'.

'She' forced herself to be calm, and then heard 'herself' answering softly.

Then 'she' reached out and touched her sleeve.

There is a roll in the cuff, and the owner of the body seems to be extremely excited after touching it.

'She' strode into the house and walked through the wide courtyard. Although the house is simple, it is also clean and delicate, with warmth.

The corners of the houses on both sides are raised high, like eagles about to take off.

'She' strode into the room and shouted:
"Ma'am, ma'am!"

"Here we come—" a woman responded softly, and then the bead curtain was lifted, and a beautiful woman stepped out.

'She' took the woman's hand and said excitedly:

"Ma'am, guess what I got?"

"What happened?" The woman smiled and looked at the person in front of her. Through her eyes, Yao Shouning saw the reflection in her pupils, which turned out to be Gu Huanzhi, who was decades younger.

She actually entered Gu Huanzhi's memory!

"When the court came down today, the emperor left me alone and told me something."

The young Gu Huanzhi was very happy, his tone was flying, and he couldn't express his emotions when he was old.

Yao Shouning was attached to his body, and he could feel his vigorous mood at this moment.

"Quickly ask Uncle Tian to prepare some wine and some crispy peanuts. My lord, I want to get drunk today."

He was so proud that he kept urging his wife.

When the woman saw that he was happy, she couldn't help smiling, and gave him a reproachful look, but she still turned around considerately and ordered someone to prepare wine and food for him.

"What happened?" The woman asked curiously after finishing all this.

"The emperor intends to marry a concubine for the prince, and he has taken a fancy to our daughter."

"what?"

what!If Yao Shouning wasn't living in Gu Huanzhi's memory at this time, she would also like to shout.

Only then did she realize that she had not only seen Gu Huanzhi's past, but had even followed his memories and remembered the time when he was most energetic.

It's a pity that Gu Huanzhi at that time probably never dreamed that how happy he was at that time, and how absurd the later Emperor Shenqi would be.

"The emperor has a benevolent and affectionate temperament, the prince is not bad in learning, handsome in appearance, and submissive in temperament. He will definitely be a benevolent monarch in the future."

Yao Shouning heard Gu Huanzhi praise:

"Our family, Zhangzhu, has a docile personality, just like you. She is knowledgeable and virtuous, and has read the books of sages. Who else in this world can match her except for the crown prince?"

It can be heard that Gu Huanzhi loves his daughter very much and is extremely confident. He said happily:
"The emperor asked my opinion, saying that it is his son..." At this point, Gu Huanzhi paused for a moment, as if he was a little embarrassed.

But Yao Shouning possessed his soul in his body, so he knew exactly what was going on in his heart, so he could naturally hear his inner voice.

The emperor said: "My son's biological mother was born in a humble background, which made him violent and violent. He is not a wise person, and he is narrow-minded, so he is not a good match."

It's a pity that he will be the king of a country in the future, and he needs to be assisted by the country's minister, and the harem also needs to be accompanied by a virtuous and reasonable woman. Speak to him more often so that he will not be deceived by monsters, and the people of the Daqing Dynasty will suffer in the future.

The emperor's words were supposed to be a reminder, but at that time, Gu Huanzhi only felt that a bright future was in front of him and his family, so he ignored them.

"The emperor said that in the future our daughter will be in the Extreme Palace, and her son will also be the master of the Daqing Dynasty."

Speaking of this, there was a light touch of 'jingle' in the distance.

The couple who were talking stopped at the same time, and turned their heads to look in the direction of the source of the voice.

The sound came from the door of the inner room, where a corner of the bead curtain was lifted, and a girl who was only thirteen or fourteen years old showed half of her face, and she was secretly looking out, obviously listening to the two of them talking .

The previous sound was exactly the sound she made when she didn't notice for a moment, put a bead curtain in her hand, and when it fell, it collided with other beads.

After realizing that she was noticed by the couple, the girl did not dodge, but looked again generously, and showed a sweet smile to Gu Huanzhi, calling out:
"father."

This is Gu Hou when he was young, with a bright and beautiful appearance, vivid and well-behaved.

"The Palm Bead..."

Gu Huanzhi's voice sounded, but Yao Shouning felt that his soul was being pulled away rapidly.

When she returned to her place, she was still hiding behind the door curtain.

The powerful Gu Xiang looked at her in a daze at this moment, his eyes were slightly moist.

If before this, Yao Shouning could not understand his gaffe at this time, but based on his past memories, she already understood that Mr. Gu probably remembered the past when he met her eyes, recalling the past. own daughter.

How happy he was then, I'm afraid he regrets it now.

"The Palm Bead..."

The elderly Mr. Gu seemed a little distracted, and called softly.

"Master Gu."

Liu Bingzhou interrupted his memory by opening his mouth, and he immediately came to his senses. His strong self-control made him realize his gaffe, and he couldn't help blinking.

In a short while, he had already controlled his mood, suppressed the water in his eyes back to his heart, and returned to his previous calm and composed appearance, as if the fragility at that moment was just an illusion of everyone.

"Master Gu?" Liu Shi was taken aback. When she heard that the Gu family was coming, she was still guessing about the purpose of the Gu family's visit. She never expected that the Prime Minister would come in person.

"Mr. Liu." Gu Huanzhi folded his hands and bowed to Liu Bingzhou.

After he regained his composure, he swept away his previous restraint and said bluntly:
"I came here to ask for something."

Gu Huanzhi's appearance looks gentle and elegant, but his personality is extremely decisive, and his speech is not sloppy, straight to the point:

"To tell the truth, Mr. Liu, the queen in the palace is now..." He paused for a while, the muscles on both sides of his cheeks twitched slightly, as if he had clenched his teeth tightly, and he said after a while:
"She is seriously ill. After being diagnosed by the imperial doctor, it is said that the purple pill can save her life."

Having said that, he raised his eyes to look at Liu Bingzhou:

"This purple pill was refined by the emperor himself. After the pill is completed, there are only two pills. One is given to the teacher by the emperor, and the other is given to Mr. Liu."

"The one in the national teacher's hand has long been used by him for other purposes, and this purple pill in your hand is the only one." Gu Huanzhi said calmly:

"Everyone in the Daqing Dynasty should know that I like poetry and praise in my life, and I don't like romance, so I am over [-] years old, and I still have only one daughter under my knees."

During the Daqing Dynasty, many people also laughed at Gu Huanzhi's lineage for cutting off his descendants.

"I regard this daughter as the apple of my eye, and I am very worried about her. I don't want a white-haired person to give a black-haired person, so after hearing the news, I begged with the cheek to ask Mr. Liu to give up the purple pill in his hand." , to save my daughter's life."

At this moment, he was not the prime minister with power over the government, nor the emperor's head of state, a high-ranking nobleman, but a father who was worried about his daughter's illness.

But when Yao Shouning heard him say that Gu Hou was 'seriously ill', a thought came to his mind: Liar!

Gu Hou was not seriously ill, but was seriously injured and his life was dying.
