In the inner courtyard of the palace, in a side hall, a man who looked over twenties and wearing a yellow robe and a jade-like face was quietly listening to the report of the wild man.
"This time the incident happened suddenly, and I dare not decide without authorization, so I asked to see the fourth prince and ask the fourth prince to forgive me," said the barbarian Hou.
The handsome man was either the fourth prince Chu Xia, but what was different from other princes was that he was just born to a concubine.
Although they are both princes, their status is very different. However, the fourth prince has always been low-key and not jealous. Among all the princes, they are very popular.
Almost all the imperial princes believed that the fourth prince was the most qualified to inherit the throne. Unfortunately, he was not born in the main palace.
The fourth prince Chu Xia nodded and said, "You are doing the right thing, but this Long Chen suddenly became an alchemist, which surprised me."
"Yes, when I saw that nameplate, I couldn't believe my eyes. This waste turned into an alchemist. It was really unbelievable." Marquis of Manhuang also shook his head and said, until now he couldn't believe it.
"It's interesting. After Long Chen was seriously injured by your son last time, he seemed to have changed. He actually became stronger and could even kill a half-step blood coagulation powerhouse. I'm afraid there is a lot of stuff here." The fourth prince stood up and walked back and forth a few steps:
"After you go back, be careful to monitor the movements of Zhenyuan Hou Mansion to see if there are suspicious people coming in and out, remember not to alert the snake."
"Yes, I will do it now, but I will do it with Long Chen..." The barbarian Hou said hesitantly.
"No need to worry about him for the time being, he is just a chess piece. As long as he doesn't jump out of the chess game, even if he has a backer, he still cannot get rid of the fate of the chess piece.
But now his identity is a little sensitive. You ask your son to temporarily restrain himself. By the way, how is Yaoyang's injury?" asked the fourth prince.
"I was worried about the fourth prince, but after the dog was conditioned, it was no longer a big deal," said the Marquis of the Barbarian Martial Arts hurriedly.
But then again, when Zhou Yaoyang was carried back, he was really shocked. The injury was too scary and he couldn't recognize his son.
Fortunately, although the injury was scary, the internal organs were not seriously damaged. That was because Long Chen gave him a pill, which saved his life.
After this period of conditioning, Zhou Yaoyang was able to walk down the ground yesterday. Except for not being able to deal with others for the time being, it was no longer a big deal.
"Well, that's good. You go back first. Remember what I said, keep an eye on there. If there is any abnormal movement, report to me immediately."
"Yes, I'm leaving"
After the Marquis of the Wild Marquis left, the Fourth Prince came to the window and looked at the dark sky outside, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"The night cannot last long. Dawn will arrive soon. Zhenyuanhou, how long can you resist?"
...
The next morning, when the people from Zhenyuan Hou Mansion opened the gate, the ground in front of the gate was covered with brand new floor tiles, and the people from the Hou Mansion couldn't help but be surprised.
What they didn't know was that when the people from the Marquis' Mansion cleared the ground, they dug out all the blood-stained ground.
Seeing the bumpy ground left behind, the man who had been left to deal with the aftermath was cursed by the wilderness before leaving. After thinking about it, he finally asked his subordinates to simply renovate the entire ground, and then he left with confidence.
Long Chen couldn't help but show a hint of ridicule about this matter. He bullied the weak and feared the strong. This time he should be honest for a while!
After Long Chen got up, he went to invite his mother to have a peace. Mrs. Long didn't know how she came back yesterday, as if it was dawn as soon as she opened her eyes. What happened yesterday was like a dream.
"Chen'er, what happened yesterday?" Although Mrs. Long was still a little scared when she saw Long Chen safe and sound.
"Mom, the child has grown up and has become a real man. Like my father, I can also shelter this family from the wind and rain." Long Chen held his mother's hand and said solemnly.
He didn't want his mother to know too much. She was just a mortal. Long Chen had already checked her body. It was a natural vein, not a waste of spiritual root, but a lack of spiritual root.
Moreover, my mother is nearly forty years old and cannot practice the Nine Star Body Rule. What's more, the Nine Star Body Rule is a method of practice that is extremely strong and yang, and women cannot practice at all.
Even if Long Chen is against the will of heaven, he still can't change his mother's physique. What he can do now is to make his mother worry less.
Seeing her son growing up overnight, she seemed to see her husband's resolute figure, Mrs. Long couldn't help feeling a little excited and tears couldn't help but stay:
"Good boy, I just don't ask you, I believe you."
Long Chen hurriedly wiped away his tears for his mother and smiled and said, "Mom, my son has grown up, you should be happy. Today I have prepared a gift for you."
After Long Chen finished speaking, he wiped the ring and a jade bottle appeared in his hand. Before Long Chen could speak, Mrs. Long said in surprise: "This is a space ring, where did you get it?"
Long Chen couldn't help but feel a little amused. Why did this look feel like he was a thief?
Long Chen knew that it was not a solution to keep this from her mother. In order to avoid her fear, Long Chen revealed his identity as an alchemist to her mother.
Anyway, sooner or later, everyone will know that there is no need to hide it. However, after Long Chen lied that he was beaten up, he had opened up the meridians by chance and could practice.
And he actually cultivated the alchemy fire and had the potential to become an alchemist. Then he went to the Alchemist Guild and happened to meet Master Yunqi, holding Master Yunqi's legs and crying and complaining.
Finally, under the attack of Long Chen's snot and tears, Master Yunqi, who was moved by the heart of stone, was promoted to become an alchemist.
Mrs. Long was confused when she heard this, but Long Chen swears that this is true and shows her nameplate to her mother. Only then did Mrs. Long believe it.
Although Mrs. Long is not a practitioner, she knows that an alchemist is an extremely noble existence. It is a blessing for Long Chen to become an alchemist for several lifetimes.
"Mom, don't move, I'll paint it on you"
After saying that, Long Chen poured out a few drops of medicine from the bottle and put it in the palm of his hand to apply it gently. A fragrance instantly spread throughout the room, making people shocked, as if sucking in that scent could make the whole person feel relaxed.
Seeing that Long Chen was serious, Mrs. Long did not dare to move. Long Chen gently applied the medicine liquid on his hand to Mrs. Long's cheek.
A cool and comfortable feeling penetrated the heart. Mrs. Long suddenly felt a cool face, very comfortable.
"Chen'er, what is this? It looks good." Mrs. Long closed her eyes, felt her son's movements, and said softly.
"Hehe, this is my son's filial piety to you. Just keep this posture and don't move," Long Chen said with a smile.
"Naughty, you bad boy." Seeing that Long Chen refused to answer positively, Mrs. Long couldn't help but laugh and scold, but her heart felt warm.
A handful of shit and urine pulled Long Chen to the top. Now that his son has grown up, he knows that he is filial, Mrs. Long is happier than anything else.
"Okay, you can open your eyes," Long Chen said.
Mrs. Long slowly opened her eyes and found that there was a huge bronze mirror in front of her, which was her dressing mirror. She was now being hugged by Long Chen.
"ah……"
Mrs. Long looked at herself in the mirror and screamed in surprise. She looked around and found that the man was right, but she looked much younger.
The wrinkles at the corners of the eyes have obviously faded a lot, and the skin, which was originally dry, has also become moisturized, and it looks like it is ten years younger.
"Chen'er, I'm not dreaming, right?" Mrs. Long looked at herself in the mirror for a long time and said in disbelief.
"I don't know if you are dreaming, but if you continue to take a look, we have to have lunch directly," Long Chen said with a smile.
Mrs. Long couldn't help but blush and slapped Long Chen: "Boy, even your mother dares to play, it's not more than half an hour."
Long Chen was happy, I felt that my mother was not only ten years younger, but also ten years younger. She smiled and said, "Mom, this is the stagnant liquid I specially refined for you. Although the medicinal materials are average, the effect will bring you back to about 30 years old, and it is still fine."
The stop-scene liquid originally needed a main medicine called stop-scene fruit to be configured, but the stop-scene fruit is extremely rare and Long Chen could not find it in a short period of time.
He used a beauty-retaining grass instead. Although the effect was much worse and he could not return to the girlhood, it was still okay to be a few years younger.
"Really?" Mrs. Long couldn't help but say happily. As a woman, there is no one who doesn't care about her face.
However, Mrs. Long and her husband were separated, and Long Chen was born to be useless, which made her worry so much that she grew old quickly.
Seeing that his mother was so happy, Long Chen felt guilty. His mother had paid too much for this family.
"Mom, this bottle of medicine will be left with you. I will give you a few more pills. You have taken it. I promise that if we stand together, we will never believe that you are my mother and thought you are my sister." Long Chen smiled while pressing his mother's shoulder with both hands.
"You little brat, don't talk badly. Now you have a lot of skills, but I'll tell you, we've agreed.
Meng Qi's wife must not run away. I don't care what method you use, I must chase her back for me." Although I was happy, Mrs. Long was still thinking about this.
When Long Chen proposed to break up with Meng Qi in the past, she could guess the probable part. A woman like Meng Qi would not give up as long as she was a man.
But Long Chen did that. Later, she thought of this and felt as painful as a needle. To put it bluntly, she was still incompetent and made her son suffer.
But Long Chen never mentioned this matter, and Mrs. Long felt even more sad. Today, when she saw Long Chen's method, she thought of this matter immediately.
In the past, Long Chen was not worthy of others, but now Long Chen is a elixir and has a higher status. He should have a chance, so he couldn't help but urge him.
"Mom, don't worry, don't you know my temperament yet? Who dares to rob me? When I was a child, my cousin robbed me of my toys, but I was bitten to cry and cry out loud," Long Chen said with a smile.
However, Long Chen smiled and couldn't smile anymore because he saw the sadness in his mother's eyes.
Since my father guarded the border, it seems that my mother has never been with her parents' home again. However, my mother has never asked for help from her family.
Long Chen took his mother's hand and said, "Mom, your son is an alchemist now. Our hard days are over, so don't think about unpleasant things."
