Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

"Wei Xuanyuan~~ No, he must not be Wei Xuanyuan, then who is he?" Ji Xun felt a strong curiosity, "Perhaps we can find some clues here to unravel the mystery of his life experience."

Ji Xun went down the steps with a torch, lit the lamp in the secret room, stuck the fire on the wall, and sat down by the desk.

There was a stack of books on the table, Ji Xun picked it up and flipped through it.

Apart from a few poorly illustrated story books, there was nothing unusual about these books.

Ji Xun put the book back and opened the drawer.

There was an exquisite small box lying in the drawer, and I didn't know what was in it, so Ji Xun took a look at it.

This box is carved and gilded, with a small brass lock on it, it looks like it is quite old.

Ji Xun put the box to his ear and listened carefully. He felt that there was no living thing in it, so the mother Gu should not be kept in it.

After reading it, Ji Xun put the box back intact, and Wei Xuanyuan would definitely notice if he opened the box without a key.

Right now, finding the mother Gu is the top priority. After all, this is related to the life of the father, so don't act rashly.

After looking around in the secret room, Ji Xun didn't find anything suspicious except the box.

After thinking about it, he extinguished the lamp, picked up the torch and left the secret room.

After dealing with Zhou Lenghui's affairs and visiting Aunt Song in Linghua Pavilion, Zhou Qian and Wei Xuanyuan went out of the mansion.

Zhou Qian put his hands behind his back and frowned.

"The Gu master who came to Daqi set off from Daqi nearly two months ago, why hasn't he arrived in the capital yet? Could it be that he was blocked in Jinzhou?"
"Impossible." Wei Xuanyuan shook his head, "When they arrive in Jinzhou, they will send a signal to the other side of the river, and let Zhu Xiangyu send a boat to pick them up. It should be due to the snowstorm in the south that affected the schedule, and they will arrive soon.'
"Haven't arrived in Jinzhou yet!" Zhou Qian said solemnly, "I don't know if Aunt Song will be able to last until that time. She looks like she is about to run out of oil and the lamp is dying."

Once Aunt Song died, the mother Gu would also die, so a Gu master with great Gu skills needed to lure it to another "host" to ensure that the mother Gu could continue to survive.

Wei Fuxuan's Yuan eyes were cold and cold: "This mother Gu is too precious and difficult to cultivate. As long as it is properly raised, it can produce daughter Gu with different functions. It is very useful, and it must not be allowed to die."

"By the way, let Aunt Song take the blood, so that it can still provide nutrition for the mother gu and feed it in her body."

"Okay, this subordinate understands." Zhou Qian nodded.

The two of them left the mansion while talking. After getting into the carriage, Zhou Qian suddenly remembered Wei Xuanyuan's strange behavior in Caihua Pavilion just now, so he asked a question.

"What's the matter with that old man? Do you see anything wrong with him?"

Compared with Wei Xuanyuan and Zhou Qian, he knows Ah Fu better, so today's Ah Fu seems to be a little different from usual, and he can't tell what is different for a while.

Height? Momentum? Appearance?
There is nothing wrong with it at first thought, but when I think about it carefully, I always feel a little awkward and unspeakable.

"Although he is hunched over, his figure and height are somewhat similar to the Night King." Wei Xuanyuan said.

"Night King? How could the Night King appear here?" Zhou Qian laughed and shook his head, "If he appears here, it can only mean one thing, Jinzhou was broken by him, but is it possible?"
After finishing speaking, he added affirmatively, "There is no bridge, no boat, and no wings~~ Can he still fly across the Jinzhou River? This is absolutely impossible."

"Maybe I'm thinking too much." Wei Xuanyuan nodded after thinking for a while.

Zhou Qian said again, "No matter how clever the disguise technique is, you can tell it from the teeth. Ah Fu has big yellow teeth, which are easy to identify."

"Big yellow teeth? Why didn't I feel this way when I talked to Ah Fu for so long?"

"Damn~~ He didn't smile, how can you tell just by talking? If the master is worried, call Ah Fu to check it out after leaving the palace."

Wei Xuanyuan hummed, and the two quickly came to the gate of the palace.

It's the middle of the twelfth lunar month, no matter how miserable the people are, the palace should still be extravagant, and what should be prepared should still be prepared.

As soon as you entered the tall and majestic palace wall, the inside was full of festivities. The red palace lanterns were swaying in the wind and snow, and the ladies and eunuchs were hanging colorful hydrangeas on both sides of the palace road, making it very lively.

After entering the palace, the two took a chariot to Jade Phoenix Hall.

This scene happened to be seen by Lin Yi dressed as a guard, and he asked the brothers behind him strangely.

"Isn't that man an entourage of Prime Minister Zhou? How can a servant ride a chariot in the palace?
The guard couldn't get used to it and said, "That Butler Huang is the prime minister's confidant. Now that the prime minister is in control, even the servants around him are going to overshadow the master."

Someone came over to talk, "Don't underestimate this Butler Huang, he is not as simple as a butler. Last time I saw him come out of the Empress Dowager's bedroom early in the morning. Do you know what it means?"

"What else could it mean? No wonder Prime Minister Zhou took him to the Jade Phoenix Palace so frequently, alas, poor His Royal Highness~~"

After hearing these words, Lin Yi stared at the back of "Housekeeper Huang" for a few more times, then suddenly put his arms around his stomach and let out two ouches, and hurriedly said that he had relieved himself and left the team.

When passing by the gate of the East Palace, I happened to see Xia Luoluo coming out in a walking chariot.

After seeing the ceremony, Wei Xuanyuan looked at Xia Luoluo jealously, and said sourly, "Did the Empress Dowager visit His Highness the Crown Prince?"

"Yeah." Charlotte replied calmly.

"How is his illness?"

"What can I do if I have paralysis? That's it." The three of them chatted one after another and went to the Jade Phoenix Hall.

Since Xia Luoluo and Wei Xuanyuan reached an agreement, the two resumed their cooperative relationship. No one knows what kind of dark thoughts they have secretly, but on the surface they are harmonious anyway.

"Is there a letter from Jinzhou? Is it safe over there?" Charlotte asked casually.

"Don't worry, it's very safe." Wei Xuanyuan smiled easily, "Trust General Zhu, with him guarding the Night King, there is no way to attack the capital." Charlotte nodded with satisfaction, which I'm afraid no one can doubt.

"Finally, the Ministry of Internal Affairs can take care of it and prepare for the new year."

Talking in a relaxed atmosphere, the three went to the Jade Phoenix Palace to discuss state affairs.

And Ji Dong saw all this in his eyes, seeing 'Butler Huang' behaving intimately with Xia Luoluo in a chariot, he was absolutely sure that he was Wei Xuanyuan.

Soon he spread the news to Ji Xun.

"It's a pity that the mother Gu hasn't been found yet, otherwise Wei Xuanyuan and his gang could be wiped out tonight." Ji Xun and Ying Ying whispered.

The commander of the imperial guards in the palace belongs to him, and it is very easy to control the palace. The most important thing is to catch Wei Xuanyuan and prevent him from escaping.

Shadow rubbed his hands and seemed a little anxious, "Yeah, I don't know what's going on with Aqin, my subordinates will go to Linghua Pavilion to find out." He said and left in a hurry.
