Chapter 268 The lucky old horse
The two looked at each other strangely. Gu Shiyi reached out and touched the most protruding part of the horse's belly. He was stunned for a moment. He lowered his head and looked at the palm of his hand. There was a faint burning sensation in the tortoise shell pattern there.

"Oh, Yan'er...this is so fun!

Pu Yanlan also lowered her head to look at her palm, and saw that the turtle pattern was red. The two looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes. Pu Yanlan frowned.
"Go back and ask my mother!"

The two discussed it and put the old horse into the secret realm. The king, who was walking around in the secret realm, was overjoyed when he saw the old horse.
"Old Ma, you're not dead yet!"

The old horse also neighed with joy when he saw it. They had a friendship in the small town and shared the same hardships. The two asked the king to take good care of the old horse and asked about the time of the next space shock. Gu Shiyi also told the old horse horse,

"These are all magical medicines and herbs. You can pick up the edible ones and eat them. Don't eat the inedible ones. Otherwise, you won't be able to bear the spiritual energy and will explode and die. Don't blame me for not warning you in advance!"

Lao Ma nodded repeatedly, and the two of them came out of the secret realm and went straight to Mrs. Pu's bedroom. Mrs. Pu was not surprised when her daughter appeared in the room out of thin air, but looked at her daughter with bright eyes.

"Have you seen it?"

Pu Yanlan nodded,
"Mother, what on earth is going on?"

Mrs. Pu burst out laughing loudly,

"Okay, okay, now I leave the treasure to you, and I feel at ease, mother!"

It turns out that Pu Yanlan's uncle found some treasures of heaven and earth and sent them to the Pu Mansion. He expected that the people from the Pu Mansion would bring them to his niece so that he could fawn over his niece. Unexpectedly, all the good things were taken away. The concubine swallowed all but the egg, because it was packed in a small box and placed in the corner of the wooden box. The concubine, who had no eyesight, threw it in the corner of the warehouse.

When Mrs. Pu found out that the concubine had swallowed the things given by her parents, she was furious and went to find Pu Xiang and made a big fuss. When she got to the warehouse, she picked a few items and delivered them to Mrs. Pu herself. Mrs. Pu saw that her parents had sent several large carts of things, but only a few items fell into her hands. She was so angry that her already sick body became sick due to stimulation. fall down.

As a result, Mrs. Pu was lying on the hospital bed, crying looking at those things. When she opened the egg and looked at it, she found that under the egg there was a secret letter sent by her eldest brother. It turned out that her eldest brother was afraid that this treasure would be too eye-catching. He stole it and deliberately mixed it with a pile of treasures. He didn't write it on the list or mention it in the letters to his family.

He was betting that his sister would be careful and the things sent by her mother-in-law would be passed on one by one, and she would definitely find the secret message inside. As a result, after Mrs. Pu saw the letter, she hid the egg.

"My mother originally thought that they could hide this matter because they were blind to gold, but she didn't expect that a year later, your cousin came to Beijing, and your father asked the little bastard to come out to entertain him. As a result, he made a drunken mistake and was arrested. Your cousin told it, and after they found out, they searched everywhere... At that time, most of the people around Wei Niang had been sent away, and they were still dragging their sick bodies, knowing that they couldn't hide it. At that time, your horse The old horse was about to die, and my servants came to report to me. I had an idea, so I went over and stuffed the egg into the old horse's mouth..."

The old horse was lying in the stable without eating or drinking for several days, and she was not afraid of eating the eggs. Mrs. Pu wanted to stuff the eggs into the horse's mouth, and then she personally watched the people eat the old horse. Buried, as long as you don't tell anyone, no one will know that there is this treasure hidden in the horse's mouth. When Lan'er comes back in the future, he will dig it out at the place where the horse was buried!
"But no one expected that on the day when the eggs were stuffed, my mother also guarded it for a whole day. The horse actually didn't die, and came back to life day by day. The groom behind the house ran away with a look of horror on his face. I came to report to my mother that this horse was originally very understanding of human nature. Since it came back to life, it has become more and more intelligent. It can actually understand human speech and knows how to respond by nodding and shaking its head..."

Mrs. Pu said,

"When the horse came back to life, I knew it must be the cause of that thing. I went to see it in person later and found that the horse's belly was extremely big. I thought it was the egg of that monster. It was a beast that couldn't bear it, so it had it. After seeing this strange look and knowing about the matter for a long time, the old man would definitely find something fishy, ​​so he sent the horse to Zhang Jiuer's house in the city at night to raise it... For the sake of my mother, it would be better to just let the thing in the horse's belly. The old man is strong!”

Mrs. Pu took her daughter's hand,
"Later, my mother asked the groom to check it out from time to time. When the groom came back, he said that the horse's belly had always been very big, but it ate and slept as usual... My mother has been hiding this from the old man, looking forward to your return. Just explained the matter..."

I see……

Pu Yanlan was stunned after hearing this and looked at Gu Shishi.
"It seems that the egg of the turtle snake beast was eaten by the old horse, and the essence in it was absorbed by it bit by bit. Over the years, it slowly transformed, and this horse is no longer an ordinary horse!"

Mrs. Pu asked her daughter,

"Yan'er, look at that baby, can it still be taken out from the horse's belly?"

Pu Yanlan thought back to the old horse's protruding belly and thought to herself,
"The turtle snake beast has Xuanwu bloodline. The eggs it lays cannot be digested by an ordinary horse. It is a miracle that it did not explode and die after eating it. If it is only allowed to absorb it slowly, I am afraid it will not survive." It takes hundreds of years to digest them all, so... of course they can be taken out!"

But if you take it out, the old horse will die!
Pu Yanlan was concerned about Mrs. An Pu's heart, so she nodded and said,
"Of course it can be taken out!"

Mrs. Pu laughed after hearing He He.
"Okay, okay, take that thing out, make it into an elixir, throw it away, or give it to that beast. Anyway, just don't take advantage of your wolf-hearted father!" Pu Yanlan knew that Mrs. Pu had been here for so many years. , already hated her husband to the core, and could no longer be persuaded by a few words. She didn’t say much at the moment, and just asked,

"Mother, we can leave here now. Is there anyone else you want to see or anything you want to say?"

Mrs. Pu shook her head,
"The trustworthy people around me have long been scattered, and there is nothing left for my mother to miss in this house!"

Pu Yanlan nodded,
"Okay, then let's... let's go!"

That night, the wife of the main wife who had been bedridden in the Pu Mansion and was on her deathbed disappeared silently into her bedroom. The mother-in-law who was keeping watch the next day woke up and found that her wife was missing. The whole house was in shock. After hearing the news, Prime Minister Pu came over to check and found no traces of intrusion. He only found a letter of departure with a bloody handprint on his wife's pillow. He opened it and read it. He said nothing and just told the outside world. command,

"Order the second wife to take care of my wife's funeral, and tell the public that my wife has died of illness!"

After that, he locked himself in the study for a long time. He didn't see his concubine, his children or grandchildren, nor the guests who came to express condolences. Everyone outside said,
"Pu Xiang and his wife had a deep love for each other. They lost their first wife all of a sudden and were deeply shocked!"

After the funeral in Pu Mansion was completed, Prime Minister Pu opened the study door. At this time, his face looked haggard, as if he had grown older all of a sudden. He called his children and grandchildren in front of him.

"My father is old and has no strength. He can no longer protect you. Tomorrow, my father will retire and return to his hometown. You...you can take care of yourself from now on!"

Everyone looked at each other at a loss. Only the second son asked,
"Father, what happened? If something big happens in the court and the new emperor wants to attack our Pu family, father, please write to the eldest sister and ask her to return home quickly..."

"Humph!"

Pu Xiang snorted coldly, pointed to a ball of ashes in the brazier in front of him and said,

"Stop thinking about it. From now on, if you don't mention your eldest sister's words, you can still save your lives. If you don't listen to your father's advice, disaster will happen in an instant!"

He spoke harshly, but I don't know how much his children and grandchildren listened.

And on the night when Mrs. Pu spread the news about her death, the new emperor of Yue had a dream. In the dream, a beautiful woman in plain clothes saluted him, saying that she was a daughter of the Pu family. The new emperor knew that the Pu Xiang family There was a girl who entered the Immortal Sect early in her life. She quickly returned the favor and said,

"The fairy falls asleep at night, but what are your orders?"

Fairy Pu replied,
"The Pu family has been favored by three generations of emperors. They are rich and honorable, and are highly respected. They are already at the top of the world. As the saying goes, prosperity will lead to decline. Nowadays, there are many dandies in the family, bullying the neighbors, running rampant, and many evils. Although we have escaped from the world of mortals, we cannot bear the suffering of the people. Please also ask the new emperor to make decisions for the people in accordance with the law, so as to prevent the Pu family from continuing to do evil and causing irreparable evil! "

At the beginning of the new emperor's reign, he thought Fairy Pu was being polite and said hurriedly,
"Fairy, what you said is wrong. Your Majesty has devoted all your energy and deeds to the country and the people. It is right for me to reward the Pu family!"

The woman shook her head and said,
"Your Majesty, please don't do this. My purpose of turning around this time is to cut off the last trace of my parents' relationship in the world. I won't see each other again for generations to come. Your Majesty, please be considerate of the common people and your people, and never show any favoritism!"

After that, it turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared into the new emperor's dream...

The new emperor woke up, thought about it, and felt that there was something fishy about the matter. He immediately sent someone to inquire secretly, and found out that a funeral was being held in the Pu Mansion, but there was only a set of clothes in the coffin, and that the first wife of Prime Minister Pu was The lady had disappeared, and the spies reported on everything that had happened in Prime Minister Pu's house over the years. The new emperor understood,

"Oh... I spoil my concubine and destroy my wife. That Fairy Pu is the wife of the first wife. Seeing that her biological mother was treated like this, no wonder she is so heartless!"

It seems that Prime Minister Pu is really old and foolish. He treated his wife so badly and ruined the whole family's future with his own hands!

Soon after, Prime Minister Pu submitted his resignation to the new emperor, and the new emperor readily agreed. After he resigned and returned to his hometown, someone reported the Pu family for several crimes, including strong men dominating women, occupying fertile land, and indulging in human life, etc., a total of thirteen items. After Xiang Du lost his head, the new emperor ordered the Pu family to confiscate their property. The men of the family were sent to the frontier and the women were made official slaves. However, the new emperor still saved face for Pu Yanlan. The edict stated that in the memory of Pu Xiang After serving as an official for many years, he was loyal to the country and tried his best for the emperor. Since he was old, he was allowed to stay in his hometown and had one of his children and grandchildren by his side.
