Man Tang Huacai

Chapter 325 The Concubine is Drunk

Miyagi, right prison guard.

After Wu Huaishi came back, he stepped back, put the wooden box on the table, opened it, and took out a copper paperweight to look at.

This object is a bit old, maybe it has been kept in the treasury, and it has a slight bluish tint. At first glance, one would think that there is a dragon entrenched on it, but upon closer inspection, one can see that it has no horns.

Wu Huaishi put the paperweight upright in front of his eyes, squinted one eye, and felt that it was a little crooked, so he broke it off without moving it.

Copper is soft, so this copper paperweight probably has some tin and lead added to it.

"What does King Ruyang do with this?"

Just as he was thinking this, a young eunuch came over.

Wu Huaishi didn't wait for him to come forward, put the copper paperweight back into the box, tucked it under his arm, and said, "Let's go."

As he walked, he was thinking about his words, thinking about how to quietly inform General Gao that Xue Bai was investigating the cause of King Ruyang's death.

He knew that Gao Lishi often favored Xue Bai, but this time Xue Bai was indeed meddling in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the adopted son of a rebellious minister always got involved in the clan affairs. It was obvious that he had ulterior motives, and General Gao should understand it.

"Master." The young eunuch said with a respectful smile, "I've already given you my permission, but General Gao doesn't have time to see you right now."

"No time?"

Wu Huaishi stopped, feeling very surprised, and asked, "Did you say I had something important to report?"

"I told you, but it seems something big happened in the palace."

"What's the big deal?"

"This slave doesn't know yet..."

"Then go and find out quickly!"

Wu Huaishi immediately became nervous and could not think about anything else for a moment. All he could think about was that this "big event" must be related to the death of King Ruyang or even the case of the three common people.

These two events, as well as the recent marriage of Princess Rongyi, are all related to Li Cong.

Now that Gao Lishi had no time to see him, Wu Huaishi summoned his confidants and ordered: "You go secretly investigate King Qing. I want to know what King Qing has been doing recently."

"Here."

"Also, we will step up our investigation into King Ruyang's previous whereabouts."

"Here."

Wu Huaishi put down the box in his hand again and kept thinking.

As he was thinking about it, he suddenly remembered something, so he opened the door and saw a young eunuch standing there, so he said, "Come in and stand there."

"Here."

"Hat off."

"Here."

Wu Huaishi took out the copper paperweight again, gestured, and hit the young eunuch on the back of his neck three times.

Three muffled sounds.

The little eunuch had no time to scream in pain and was knocked to the ground by him.

Wu Huaishi really used all his strength. He was so tired that he gasped and said: "Get up... get up."

He put down the paperweight in his hand, leaned over to detect the breath of the young eunuch, and was surprised to find that he had actually beaten him to death.

Human life is more fragile than he imagined...

With a "squeak", the door was pushed open, and the young eunuch who came in was startled when he saw the situation in the room, and quickly covered his mouth.

Wu Huaishi turned his head, revealed a gloomy look, and said lightly: "What's wrong?"

"Grandpa, I heard... I heard that the big event in the palace is... the saint kicked Concubine Yang out of the palace..."

"what?!"

Wu Huaishi stood up suddenly and was very surprised.

"Aren't you talking about Concubine Yang Shu, Yang Zhaoyi, Yang Wanyi, Yang Jieyu... Are you really talking about Concubine Yang Taizhen?"

"Yes."

Wu Huaishi lowered his head and glanced at the copper paperweight in his hand, and couldn't tell which thing was bigger.

~~

Mrs. Guo's Mansion.

In the fragrant boudoir, the two people who were enjoying themselves stopped moving.

"Then shall I go back first?" Xue Bai said.

"No, you go to the guest room and wait. Yuhuan may want some advice from you." Yang Yuyao hurriedly arranged her hair, "Suddenly something like this happened, who knows what to do."

"Let her know that I am in your house right now..."

"Do you really think she doesn't know about our relationship?"

Yang Yuyao put on the colorful silk again and wiped Xue Bai's neck by candlelight. She found that the red mark could not be wiped off, so she had no time to care about it and hurried out of the hall.

Before leaving the backyard, he saw Yang Yuhuan walking this way, looking at the surrounding scenery as he walked.

She hurriedly went up to him and asked, "What's going on? Are you scaring me? Are you really being kicked out of the palace for disobeying the decree?"

"Yes, if I am no longer a noble concubine, wouldn't the third sister not welcome me?"

"Who told you that? I'll ask you what happened so that I can figure out a solution."

"Let's talk in your room."

Yang Yuhuan walked towards Yang Yuyao's house. At the same time, Liu Feng turned back to the snow and glanced at Zhang Yunrong, signaling her to guard the yard.

The sisters entered the house and Mingzhu was making the bed. Yang Yuhuan looked at the situation in the room and suddenly said: "Since Xue Bai is here, I will invite him here to save me from having to talk to him again."

Yang Yuyao knew that it was a big deal for her sister to leave the palace, and she didn't intend to hide it, so she ordered Mingzhu to invite someone over.

"I was discussing state affairs with my sworn brother, about the battle of Nanzhao and the death of King Ruyang... But how did you know that he was in my house?"

"If it's just Third Sister who has been lying on this bed yourself, why would you let Mingzhu clean it up?" Yang Yuhuan snorted softly and spat: "It's better to hide it than to reveal it."

"How can you guess based on this? I'm afraid you just said he was here without asking anything."

"Have I wronged you?"

"As we said, we discussed some state affairs."

They have always liked to quarrel since they were young. From the time they entered the room to the time they sat down, they exchanged words with each other. However, Yang Yuyao was still worried and couldn't help but said: "You have fallen out of favor, and you are still talking about such trivial matters." .”

Yang Yuhuan directly picked up the watering can on the table, took a sip from the spout, and said, "I'm so thirsty that I had a quarrel in the palace and I haven't even touched the water yet."

She did not answer her sister's question, but looked towards the door of the room. After waiting for a while, she saw Mingzhu leading Xue Bai in.

Xue Bai was neatly dressed, with his hair tied up and wearing a crown, his hair was not messy, his face was solemn, and he exuded awe-inspiring righteousness. In short, he looked like a gentleman... Seeing him like this, Yang Yuhuan couldn't help but become suspicious, secretly guessing that he was really having an affair with the third sister. ?

"I've met two ladies."

"Yes." Yang Yuyao sat upright and responded seriously, looking a little deliberate.

Yang Yuhuan smiled and said: "Sit down, bring me a cup, and talk while drinking."

"Okay, I'm a light drinker. I'll have three drinks with my sister."

"Come to think of it, we haven't spoken like this in two years, right?"

"Less than two years."

"Yes, it's not the Chinese Valentine's Day yet." Yang Yuhuan looked at Xue Bai and said, "Abai has grown up, but I am getting old."

Xue Bai was stunned for a moment, and then he looked at her intently. Under the candlelight, he saw that the beautiful face that had brought disaster to the country and the people was more beautiful than in his memory. He couldn't help but be surprised that she would feel old. Then, he saw Yang Yuhuan's eyes flashing with narrow-mindedness. meaning.

She might have said that on purpose to make him look at her.

Seeing his gaze, Yang Yuhuan couldn't help but smile. He poured two glasses of wine and drank one himself first. He looked relaxed and felt more at ease after leaving the palace.

Xue Bai wanted to praise her, "You haven't changed, but you look younger," but he didn't say it. Instead, he asked, "Why did sister leave the palace?"

Yang Yuhuan thought for a while, seemed a little puzzled, and said: "I had a quarrel with the saint for no reason."

"No reason?" Yang Yuyao said, "Then you are acting recklessly."

Yang Yuhuan felt funny after hearing this and said, "If the saint doesn't allow me to act recklessly, isn't there something wrong?"

"Look at the nonsense you're talking about."

Of these two sisters, Yang Yuyao has a reputation of being domineering. She looks fierce, but in fact she treats people with loyalty and is more coaxing. Yang Yuhuan looks gentle, but because she is so beautiful, she is naturally arrogant.

"Third sister, don't interrupt." Yang Yuhuan drank another glass of wine and said: "Today I was rehearsing "The Legend of White Snake" and I sang well. The saint came over and said first that King Ruyang passed away and that the money was not enough. In short, he broke his promise. I regretted it and refused to host a banquet and put on this play. I naturally refused to comply and thus became a disobedient to the imperial edict."

"That's it?" Yang Yuyao asked.

Xue Bai looked more serious instead, thinking that Li Longji might not like this drama very much. He was assassinated last time he sang White Snake and almost lost Yang Yuhuan. But since Yang Yuhuan has already shown that he wants to sing this drama again, if he is really compliant, it will appear to be hypocritical.

"When we left the palace, General Gao also quietly reminded me of a few things." Yang Yuhuan said: "At the Taichi Banquet a few days ago, Princess Yuzhen's seat fell behind my three sisters."

"Really?" Yang Yuyao immediately became confused and said, "I don't remember this, even if it's true, that's what she asked me to do."

"Although the matter is small, it was nothing when compared to the grace of saints in the past. Now, he probably feels that the Yang family's reputation is too great and too domineering."

"Knock us?"

"The Sacred Heart is unpredictable, how can I know it?"

"Knock it, just beat it. All the fine clothes and food are given by the saint. Now he feels too ostentatious, so he should restrain himself." Yang Yuyao was really dissatisfied, but still said: "Just apologize to the saint."

"What did Abai say?"

"I'm afraid I can't apologize." Xue Bai said: "The stronger my sister's attitude is, the clearer her conscience becomes."

"That's what I think too." Yang Yuhuan said: "The saint must bow his head first, otherwise it will be difficult to live in the palace in the future."

She touched the wine glass in front of Xue Bai with her wine glass and asked, "What's the plan?"

"Sister, please rest assured and wait until I find out the saint's intentions."

"Our Yang family's chief counselor only has this one strategy?"

"Managing housework is like treating a disease. It is best to prescribe the right medicine. No matter how beautiful your skills are, it is useless."

Yang Yuhuan truly felt relaxed. It didn't feel like he had been kicked out of the palace, but more like going back to his parents' home to play. He raised his finger, pointed at Xue Bai's wine glass, and said, "Drink."

Seeing Xue Bai's throat rolling, she was satisfied and said: "It's rare for us siblings to have a chance to have a drink. Don't be stingy tonight. You are good at writing poems. You should write more poems and give them to me."

The wine from Mrs. Guo's Mansion tastes quite sweet, but is very intoxicating. After just one drink, Xue Bai was already slightly dizzy.

"My sister is a good dancer, but I didn't let her dance more songs."

"do you want to see?"

Suddenly hearing this question, Xue Bai was a little stunned.

He thought he was probably drunk, so he shook his head.

Yang Yuhuan couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "You don't want to see me dance, but I want you to write poems. You deserve to write me poems in vain."

Looking at this bright face, Xue Bai really thought of a poem, a long poem.

He didn't copy it, but took the initiative to drink another glass of wine.

After agreeing to accompany him for three drinks, he thought he would just finish the three drinks and leave. However, when he put down his second cup, he saw that Yang Yuhuan had already stood up, dancing and singing softly.

"The ice wheel of the island is first turning, and the slave is like Chang'e leaving the moon palace..."

When Xue Bai heard this, he couldn't help but shook his head, thinking that he was really drunk, because this song clearly sounded like the song sung by the concubine in the drama "The Drunk Concubine", but in front of him was a real concubine.

Maybe it was because the imperial concubine sang this way that it was later written into the opera? Xue Bai didn't know, he could only tell that the tune was completely different.

He didn't dare to watch Yang Yuhuan dance drunkenly, so he drank the last glass of wine, bowed solemnly, turned around and walked out.

"Xue Bai, you are drunk."

Yang Yuyao came over to support him and held him in her arms.

"I'm not drunk. I have more than three drinks now."

Xue Bai still walked out. Strangely, he could still hear Yang Yuhuan's beautiful voice in his ears.

He couldn't help but turn his head and look. It turned out that her singing turned into flying snowflakes and surrounded him. No wonder she could still hear it after walking so far away.

Walking in the snow, he smiled bitterly and shook his head, thinking that instead of copying the long poem, he could copy a song for her to listen to. Unfortunately, he had a white voice, so he had to make people laugh when he sang it.

"Xue Bai, you are drunk."

"I'm not drunk."

Xue Bai felt like he was falling into a soft cloud and riding on the cloud.

He only hummed it alone when there was no one around.

"The snowflakes fell that year and the plum blossoms bloomed on the branches. There was too much sadness left by the Huaqing Pond that year..."      ~~

"Xue Lang, Xue Lang."

Xue Bai opened his eyes again and saw Mingzhu, who was pushing him anxiously.

"Am I drunk?"

He sat up and felt a little dizzy. He turned around and saw that it was still dark and there were candles burning in the room.

At this moment, Mingzhu reminded herself that something was urgent.

"what happened?"

"The palace has sent eunuchs and maids to serve the noble concubine." Mingzhu spoke quickly and said: "They are going to take over the guard of Guo Guo's wife's mansion. Now Yao Niang is holding them back. Get out quickly. If it's too late, you won't be able to get out. .”

Xue Bai was a little strange at first. Although he was calming down, Li Longji could not rest assured that Yang Yuhuan left the palace like this. It turned out that he arrived a little later.

He stood up quickly, thinking that if he was bumped into on Xuanyangfang Street, it would be very troublesome, but he could only leave at this time.

“Is it safe to cross the street?”

"The imperial concubine has made arrangements."

Xue Bai then went to the side door without holding the lamp, and let Mingzhu pull him to lead the way.

With only a little starlight, they walked around the flower path. In front of them was the second door on the west side of Mrs. Guo's mansion. The surrounding guards had been dispersed by the pearl. Xue Bai thought for a moment and ran out decisively.

Mingzhu hurried over, bolted the door again, and was about to leave when she heard a conversation coming from the other side.

"We have already seen the door. Since there are people guarding it, Zhang Shanggong doesn't have to worry about it."

……

The next day, shortly after dawn, a guest came to Xue's house.

Xue Bai rushed to the front hall. He was surprised at first, and then said: "Why did General Wu come here so early today?"

Wu Huaishi smiled and said: "Xue Lang, guess what I am doing?"

"It's for Princess Rongyi's wedding. Your Prime Minister ordered me to help the ceremony organize it together."

"That's right." Wu Huaishi said: "The saint attaches great importance to this matter. He personally looked at the list of officials in charge of weddings in the ceremonial court. When he met Xue Lang, your name was also on it. He asked, 'Xue Bai has never served in the Ministry of Rites, can you? Hosting a wedding?'"

Xue Bai said: "Answer the sage, I am only responsible for reviewing some expenses."

"Then I will report back to the saint like this."

After talking about business, Wu Huaishi put on a friendly smile and said: "If Mr. Xue encounters any difficulties, just tell me. When I left the palace this morning, the imperial concubine specifically told me to help her sworn brother more."

Xue Bai's expression remained unchanged and he replied: "Thank you, noble concubine. Then I won't be polite to General Wu anymore. I will ask the general for advice then."

"Okay, okay." Wu Huaishi looked at him carefully, but couldn't see many problems, and then said: "You are Tai Lecheng, have you been to the funeral of King Ruyang, right? Since Tianbao Ba was recorded in Winter Since then, there have been no interruptions in the funerals and happy events of the ministers of the DPRK."

"Yes, life and death are subject to change."

"Do you know King Ruyang?"

"I met him once before." Xue Bai replied: "That's an interesting thing. It was at the banquet of Anqingzong. King Ruyang dressed up as a woman and played the piano. I couldn't recognize him..."

He spoke in quite detail and seemed aboveboard.

Wu Huaishi could not get any clues for the time being, so he left with a smile.

But when he left the palace today, he actually suspected that Xue Bai had something to do with Concubine Yang... This suspicion was not groundless, but after Xue Bai and Yang Yuhuan spent a night in the Palace of Eternal Life on Chinese Valentine's Day that year, he had a vague feeling There was some deliberate alienation between the two.

In addition, the King of Ruyang suddenly inquired about the details of the three common people's case, and Wu Huaishi also suspected that it was related to Xue Bai. Because he heard what Yao Siyi said with his own ears, Xue Bai did go to Yeting with Princess Hezheng, and it was not for an affair.

Although Wu Huaishi didn't know much about men anymore, after thinking about it, he thought that Xue Bai must have had an affair with Concubine Yang, so he didn't have an affair with Princess Hezheng. Then he went to Yeting to investigate the case of the three common people. In this way, everything turned out to be That makes sense.

Even if the truth isn't true, it doesn't matter. Due to Lu Linghao's incident, there was a rift between them. After Yao Siyi's incident, they were even more incompatible. He must get rid of Xue Bai as soon as possible. This was an opportunity.

……

After leaving Xue's house, Wu Huaishi did not return to the palace immediately. Instead, he went to the Guoguo Madam's Mansion to ask for an audience with the noble concubine.

After a while, Zhang Yunrong came out to report back and said: "My wife said that she is guilty and has been imprisoned in the third sister's house. She dare not see anyone, and she is even more afraid of injuring General Wu. Please go back to General Wu."

"The old slave is scared. If the noble concubine dares not to meet, the old slave will wait here."

"General Wu, take care of yourself." Zhang Yunrong left happily.

Wu Huaishi had no intention of meeting Yang Guifei. After waiting for a while, he saw a female official from the palace coming out, it was Lu Zhenniang who was opposite him.

Lu Zhenniang was a very capable woman. She served as a sixth-rank minister in the palace bureau and had considerable power. She was Lu Linghao's daughter. It was because of this relationship that Wu Huaishi claimed to be Lu Linghao's son-in-law.

"How?" Wu Huaishi asked, "What did you find?"

"I think you are just having a wild imagination." Lu Zhenniang said, "Just say that Xue Bai is having an affair with Third Aunt Yang, but how is that possible with the imperial concubine?"

"Whether there is or not, when the imperial concubine lives here, as long as Xue Bai comes, it will be a threat to his life."

Lu Zhenniang said: "If you really want to take advantage of him, you should give him a chance to steal. Since we were guarding the imperial concubine last night, how can we have any clues?"

"Do you really need to catch the stolen goods? The things that have not been collected in time, such as clothes, socks, and handwriting, only need to be in the imperial concubine's room, and I can invite the saint to take a look in disguise."

Lu Zhenniang didn't think so at first, but after hearing this, she remembered something and said: "Last night, when we arrived, the imperial concubine was a little drunk and she was singing."

"What's so strange about that?"

"Across the courtyard wall, we only listened to a few words. The song was very... strange." Lu Zhenniang couldn't describe what was strange, and she frowned slightly.

Wu Huaishi said: "Come and listen."

Lu Zhenniang was sent to the palace after being trained well, so she was not only young and beautiful, but also good at singing and dancing. Although I only vaguely heard it last night, I was able to actually restore those few lines of singing.

She cleared her throat slightly and sang: "I raise my glass to the moon and feel as much love as the sky. I am confused about love and hate. I ask you when will you fall in love..."

Wu Huaishi was stunned and said in surprise: "This song is so weird!"

The couple looked at each other and had a common thought - it must have been done by Xue Bai.

Wu Huaishi thought about it again. The imperial concubine just returned to the Guoguo Madam's Mansion last night. She immediately knew this song, and the three lines she sang, one for "love", one for "love", and one for "love", were probably related to Xue Bai. Had a tryst.

This is indeed not ironclad proof, but this kind of thing does not require ironclad proof. It is enough to plant a thorn in the heart of the saint.

Having obtained this clue at Mrs. Guo's house, Wu Huaishi did not stay any longer and turned back to the palace, wondering along the way whether to deal with Xue Bai now or wait.

At present, it has been found that Xue Bai went to Yeting, met King Ruyang, investigated the death of King Ruyang, and dedicated a song to the imperial concubine. These clues are strung together, and the inferred guilt is terrible, but they are all just speculations. .

Hesitating in his heart, Wu Huaishi entered the palace, and met a eunuch running towards him, saying, "Master, Gao Weng wants to see you."

"I'll be there right away."

Wu Huaishi rushed to Gao Lishi because he was worried, and then he realized that he had not brought the square copper paperweight, and said: "Master, that object..."

"Let's melt it." Gao Lishi said calmly.

"Here."

Gao Lishi asked: "Two of your men died?"

Wu Huaishi felt a chill in his heart, lowered his head and said, "Yes, Xi Liu Niang is gone too."

"Who did it?"

"I don't know...yet."

"Do you have any doubts?"

"Yes." Wu Huaishi said: "Those who dare to take action against the Minister of Internal Affairs may be that the East Palace or the Right Prime Minister's Mansion are also investigating King Ruyang's affairs, or... my son has an idea. Zhang Huima has said that the Right Prime Minister's Mansion seems to be in the opposite direction. Prince Qing, Xue Bai must be involved in this matter."

"Do you have this strength?"

"Xue Bai once met Xi Liuniang at the Prince Ruyang's Mansion to investigate the death of Prince Ruyang. After that, Xi Liuniang was kidnapped."

"Find the evidence." Gao Lishi ordered, and then added: "You have a problem with Xue Bai, so don't dare to fool me with false evidence."

"My son must not dare."

Wu Huaishi lowered his head and waited for a long time before Gao Lishi ordered him to step back.

"Go ahead, something bigger has happened in the palace, you should take care of these small things first."

"Here."

Hearing that the imperial concubine's departure from the palace was the most important thing, Wu Huaishi immediately gave up his intention of complaining to Gao Lishi about Xue Bai's affair with the imperial concubine. If Gao Lishi heard about this matter first, it would be smoothed over. The only way to do this was to let the saint directly Just know.

……

Turning back to the right prison guard, Wu Huaishi picked up the copper paperweight and looked at it for a while. He was about to recruit someone to melt it when a confidant came back to report it.

"Grandpa, we found it!"

"So much has happened, what have you found?"

"Prince Ruyang often visited Prince Shou during his lifetime..."

Wu Huaishi stood up immediately and said, "The family order from King Shou has come. No, I will go see him in person."

"Here."

He walked out of the main room in a hurry, but Wu Huaishi thought of something again, turned around, and stuffed the copper paperweight into his sleeve.

~~

The House of the Ten Kings.

Li Jin also offered Li Jin's memorial tablet in the hall and sat there in a daze all day long.

"Eighteen Master, the family order is here."

Jia Ling is the eunuch who manages the prince's daily life. Among the ten princes' houses, except for a few princes such as Li Heng who can turn Jia Ling into a confidant, most of the princes' Jia Ling is a supervisor.

Li Chen was very afraid of his family order.

But when he turned around, he saw someone who frightened him even more.

"General Wu."

"Eighteen Masters don't need to be too polite, they will offend the old slave."

Wu Huaishi didn't have time to chat with the fallen prince. He had a lot of things to do inside and outside the palace, so he quickly stepped aside and invited Li Xuan to sit down and talk alone.

"Jiushiro, please look at what this is."

Li Xuan looked around and saw the copper chilong slowly emerging from Wu Huaishi's sleeves. His face turned pale with fright and his body trembled.

"This……"

"It seems that Shibaro is aware of this thing?"

"I...my mother-in-law was scared to death by it. How...how could I not recognize it?"

Wu Huaishi sighed and said: "Yes, the Wu family's relatives made a big fuss at that time, but after seeing this copper paperweight, they had nothing to say, because this copper paperweight was used by the deposed prince. In the end, everyone knew that Zhenshun The queen was frightened to death by the deposed prince’s sneakiness.”

"Yes...yes..." Li Chan calmed down and said, "Someone put the deposed prince's relics next to my grandma to scare...scare her."

"It's true that it's a relic of the deposed prince." Wu Huaishi said: "But does Shiba Shiro know that there are other secrets hidden in this copper paperweight?"

"What secret?"

Wu Huaishi stopped talking and smiled mysteriously, saying, "Eighteen Lang clearly knows."

"Do I know...?"

Li Chen still wanted to pretend to be stupid, but sweat was dripping from his palms involuntarily.

He knew that as long as the eunuch in front of him said in front of the saint that he was still involved in the three common people's case, although he would not die, his life would be very difficult.

"How can Prince Ruyang really not know that King Ruyang comes to Prince Shou's Mansion so frequently?" Wu Huaishi's face gradually turned cold.

"General Wu." Li Chen said hurriedly: "I don't know, I have reached this point now, I..."

"Then Eighteenth Prince, please tell the truth. King Ruyang has been killed, and two eunuchs from the Ministry of Internal Affairs have also died. The saint is furious, and even Concubine Yang has been temporarily expelled. Now that the matter has come to this, we can only tell the truth, old man Only a slave can protect you."

Li Chan was startled at first, and then stunned, surprised that Yuhuan was also implicated.

Thinking of that old appearance, he felt a twinge in his heart.

“How do I tell the truth?”

"Why did King Ruyang re-investigate the case of the three common people?"

"He said." Li Chan was a little scared and whispered: "He said that Xue Bai told him that Li Ying's son Li Qian is still alive."

"what?!"

This time, it was Wu Huaishi who was so surprised that he couldn't even control his emotions and stood up quickly.

"It can't be...he...where is he?!"
