"Master, why did you say this?" Qingmu was full of doubts.
"Why do you think she said that?" Mo Jue gently fiddled with the lid of the stove and said casually, "Rumors can kill people as well as save people."
Aoki was confused when he heard this, but he finally figured out something.
"Master, do you think Chu Ran can escape unscathed?"
Mo Jue did not answer, only smiled and said: "I have something I want you to do."
…
Accompanied by his guards, Chu Ran returned to Zhaiyue Pavilion.
As soon as they entered the house, the guards quickly dispersed. Two guarded the door, two guarded the courtyard, and the others guarded the windows, blocking all the passages through which Chu Ran could leave.
Seeing her looking over, the two guards outside the door looked like enemies, "What do you want to do!"
Chu Ran only found it funny.
She doesn't seem to have done anything, right? Why are they so nervous?
A hint of amusement flashed in his dark jade-like eyes, he turned on his toes and walked straight out the door.
The guards' nerves tensed up instantly, and they quickly grasped the handle of the knife, "Stop!"
"Don't be so nervous," Chu Ran said with a smile, stopping at the threshold, "I'm just a little hungry suddenly, could you please help me bring some food in."
"Do you still want to eat?" The guard looked at her as if she was seeing a ghost.
After causing such a big trouble, she is still in the mood to eat?
"Can't you?" Chu Ran raised his feet as if to step out.
"Don't come out!" The guard broke out in a cold sweat. He really wanted her to go out. God knows what this lunatic could do!
In their eyes, Chu Ran, who dared to insult the eldest lady, humiliate the third young master, and even destroy his son's cultivation in front of the general, was no different from a lunatic!
"Just wait! Someone will deliver the things!"
Chu Ran put his foot down and suddenly thought of something, and added, "Remember to be more prepared."
Ignoring the guard's questioning gaze, she turned and returned to her room.
Mercury quickly closed the door and ran to her side.
"This slave will put on your clothes and lie on the bed pretending to be you. If you lower the curtain, they won't be able to notice you for a while."
Her voice was kept low, lest anyone outside would hear her.
"You just hide behind the door, and when they come into the house to deliver food, knock them out and escape! With your magical skills, you will definitely be able to escape from the house before they can react!"
Chu Ran walked to the sink for washing, washed the fingers stained with Chu Xinghe's blood, then took off the handkerchief, wiped it and said, "Why are you running away?"
"You have crippled the third young master. There is no way that the master and his wife will let you go!" Mercury said urgently.
"Really?" Chu Ran smiled noncommittally, put down the veil, and walked towards the bed.
"Miss!" Shuiyin stamped her feet and hurriedly followed, only to see her sitting cross-legged on the bed, just closing her eyes and starting to practice!
The whole person suddenly became stupid. He wanted to call her, but he was afraid that it would disturb her, but he didn't call, because he was so panicked.
Like an ant on a hot pot, anxiously running around in circles.
At noon, the blazing sunshine baked the earth, but it could not dispel the haze in Zhuxinyuan.
"The third young master has taken the body-building pill, and the wounds on his body will be healed within ten days at the latest. When the official examined the third young master, he also found that his nose was swollen and his heart pulse was blue-purple. It was clearly due to poisoning.
state."
Zhang Huai stood in front of the bed and spoke to Chu Tian and Zheng Jinhua.
The curtains on the bed fell down, and Chu Xinghe, who had taken the medicine, had already fallen asleep.
"Signs like this didn't appear the last time I saw the third young master, so it can be seen that it's another kind of poison!"
Hearing this, a flash of inspiration quickly flashed in Zheng Jinhua's mind.
"That's right! Before, Xinghe and I suddenly felt weak and couldn't use our spiritual power. We must have been poisoned! It's her! It must be the fault of that bitch Chu Ran!"
A blue vein suddenly popped up on Chu Tian's forehead.
It's her again!
He suppressed his anger and asked, "Where is his Qi Hai? Can he still be saved?"
Poisoning can also be detoxified, but the most important thing now is whether Xinghe can maintain his cultivation!
Standing at the end of the bed, Fu Hanwan subconsciously held her breath.
Zheng Jinhua also closed his mouth and stared at Zhang Huai, hoping to hear good news from his mouth.
Zhang Huai shook his head and said unbearably: "The third young master's Qi sea has been shattered by spiritual power..."
"Is there a magic pill to repair it!?" Chu Tian asked eagerly.
"Even if there is, it can only repair the sea of qi. But for the third young master, not only his sea of qi has been broken, but his spiritual roots have also been destroyed! Please forgive me for being incompetent. There is really nothing I can do for the third young master's injury.
"
Zhang Huai bowed his hands in shame.
Chu Tian staggered and almost lost his balance. His voice trembled as he said, "You mean... Xinghe is useless?"
"Impossible! There is no way my son is a waste! It must be your poor medical skills, that's why you couldn't cure him!" Zheng Jinhua couldn't accept this fact and cried and yelled.
Chu Tian clenched his fists hard, and his hands clenched loudly.
His son! The son he was so proud of and had so much hope for was so abandoned!
There was a bang in my head, and all rationality and calmness were thrown out of my mind.
He let out a low roar and rushed out of the room to settle the score with Chu Ran.
"Master!" But the housekeeper rushed from outside the courtyard at this moment, "There is someone coming from the palace!"
…
Rapid footsteps sounded outside Zhaiyue Pavilion.
Chu Ran woke up from trance and raised his eyes to look at the door.
The door was pushed open, and the butler led the guards in.
"Master, let the eldest lady go out."
Chu Ran's eyebrows moved slightly, he stood up, straightened the folds on his body, and then smiled and said: "Then let's go."
Quicksilver was about to follow, but was stopped by the guards.
"The master only asked the eldest lady to go alone," the housekeeper said.
How could Mercury be willing to do so, "But Miss, she..."
"Don't worry," Chu Ran patted her shoulder gently, "It's okay."
Her expression was calm, and her eyes were gentle and filled with a soothing magic.
Mercury seemed to be infected, and gradually calmed down under her gaze.
"My slave is waiting for you right here!"
She believed in the lady. Since the lady said it was okay, then it would be okay!
Chu Ran followed the housekeeper out of the backyard, and met the servant who was delivering meals to Zhaiyue Pavilion on the way.
She took away the food box containing the pastries, but still had the others sent over for Mercury to eat.
The housekeeper's mouth twitched when he saw it. He wanted to say something but finally endured it. He quickened his pace and took her outside the house.
Two carriages were parked on the road one behind the other. In the front was a man wearing gray and black brocade clothes, carrying a bow, and looking solemn, sitting high on a horse.
"Are you Chu Ran?" He gave Chu Ran a cold look, "Get in the car quickly, the emperor wants to see you."
"Huh?" Chu Ran was a little surprised, and then he guessed the reason.
"Wait a moment." She carried the food box and came to the first carriage under the cold gaze of the other party.
There were two smells in the car that were very familiar to her.
"Dad and Er Niang are busy with Third Brother's affairs, so they must not have eaten yet?" She put the food box on the wooden board outside the car curtain and pushed it in gently.
"I specially ordered this to be prepared for you. Eat it while it's hot."
Zheng Jinhua was sitting in the carriage, her eyes red with anger.
