PFC Chapter 418: Relapse of Fetal Poison
Chapter 418: Relapse of Fetal Poison
So he pretended to be the commander of the palace guards and always went to the side hall to look for her. It was nothing, but listening to her nagging and cursing a few times, he felt relieved.
Ye Xuanke looked gossipy and leaned over to ask, "Father... doesn't he have any other thoughts?"
Emperor Qinglong: “…”
Why is his son so gossipy?
Before he could speak, Ye Xuanqi cleared his throat and said curiously, "I would like to know, too."
Emperor Qinglong: “…”
How come even the usually calm and reserved Fourth Brother has become so gossipy?
Song Yunxi's face suddenly appeared in Emperor Qinglong's mind, especially her eyes that were shining as she listened to gossip everywhere. It was true that birds of a feather flock together.
Emperor Qinglong rarely showed embarrassment. He did want to, but that woman was obviously heartless. She only treated him as a brother. She had no intention of falling in love with him and had no intention of marrying and relying on a man at all.
"Then why did she go back to the palace?" Ye Xuan Ke was curious.
Ye Xuanqi also looked puzzled.
Emperor Qinglong was also helpless. It was only during their conversation that he learned that she had to write her name on the selection list for entering the palace in order to avoid persecution from her stepmother.
"I entered the palace only to escape the fate of being sold to an old man as his second wife. I never came for the emperor, so I don't care if the emperor never visited me. And it was also the result of my intentional avoidance."
"If I can save enough money to sneak out of the palace quietly and live a free life, that would be the best, but if that's not possible, then living a peaceful life in the palace is also good."
It was a rare occasion for Emperor Qinglong to reveal his true feelings to his two sons. When they heard that the talented woman had no intention of being favored, let alone any man, the two brothers became more curious about the talented woman.
However, Emperor Qinglong was already in middle age, and had long passed the age of passionate affection. He was more of a person who let things take their own course in relationships, and he didn't want to force her with his status as an emperor.
And the little girl also said that the poison in his body has been there for too long, and it is not suitable for him to have any love affairs for the next three years. It is better for him to live a pure and abstinent life to stay safe!
As for that talented person, just treat him as a friend you can chat with. It’s nice to chat with him on a daily basis.
The two brothers thought it was a good idea to not trap the talented person in the deep palace. For their father, keeping him away from women would also help maintain his health, so they didn't say anything else.
Having obtained a large number of weapons for no reason, as well as the secret recipe for making excellent weapons, Emperor Qinglong's good mood lasted for quite some time.
On the other hand, when Shen Zhikang noticed something unusual and went to the mountains, all he saw were deserted caves and empty warehouses.
Shen Zhikang was so shocked that he almost confessed.
Eight years, eight years of hard work, and it’s gone just like that!
Without these weapons, how could he intimidate Ye Xuanqi, a natural emperor? How could he help Ye Xuanrong seize the throne? How could he realize his dream of ruling the world?
Shen Zhikang felt like the sky had fallen. Even when he knew that he was inhumane and even when he was castrated by that vicious woman Ye Ruyan, he had never been so desperate. But now he felt like he had lost everything.
He fell backwards step by step, and Song Muxue, who came over, supported him: "Brother Zhikang, we can send people to check as soon as possible. So many weapons will not disappear so quietly, we will definitely be able to find them back!"
"right……"
Shen Zhikang seemed to have regained some of his rationality, and there was a glimmer of hope in his eyes. "Yes, we can still find it back, we can definitely find it back!"
If Song Yunxi knew that they wanted to recover what they had lost, she would definitely laugh out loud.
But now Song Yunxi was too lazy to pay attention to them and proudly showed her storage space to Emperor Qinglong.
Emperor Qinglong looked at the jade bracelet with curiosity and shock: "This... Can I use this space too?"
"No."
Song Wentian was quite disgusted with Emperor Qinglong's inexperienced look: "This jade bracelet has already recognized Xi'er as its master."
So only his precious daughter can use it!
Emperor Qinglong glared at his junior brother in annoyance. He was such a daughter-slave that he forgot about his senior brother once he had a daughter. He always gave his daughter the good things first, and why didn't he give one or two to his senior brother?
Emperor Qinglong cursed in his heart——
He had forgotten how his senior brother held him and coaxed him to sleep when he was still a baby.
He forgot that his senior brother had been holding him and coaxing him to eat.
He also forgot how he followed his senior brother around and begged him to play with him when he was a kid.
It turns out that raising a son is useless, and raising a junior fellow apprentice is even more useless.
Song Wentian felt uneasy at the sight of his resentful eyes, and sighed helplessly, "Next time I go out to sea, I will definitely find some rare things for you, brother."
After hearing what he said, Emperor Qinglong's expression became better: "You said it yourself. I didn't force you."
Song Wentian: ...Why are you going backwards as you get older?
"Yeah, I said so myself."
After several people discussed distributing the weapons to various borders, Ye Xuanqi expressed his concerns: "In my opinion, it is better to secretly send people to the border after a few days. At this time, Shen Zhikang will definitely look for them everywhere. We don't know how many of his spies there are in the capital. If we act rashly, I am afraid that the news will be leaked."
Song Wentian agreed and said, "Xuan Qi is right. It is better to keep quiet at this time when we are in the spotlight."
His eyes fell on Ye Xuanqi's face, and the latter was puzzled: "Uncle Tian, what's wrong with me?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, several people looked at his face, as if they wanted to see something from it.
But there is no problem.
Song Wentian asked Ye Xuanqi: "Have you been feeling unwell lately?"
Ye Xuanqi thought about it seriously and shook his head: "No."
But Song Yunxi's expression suddenly changed, as if she had thought of something.
Song Wentian's eyes never left Ye Xuanqi's face. He held Ye Xuanqi's wrist to feel his pulse. Everyone held their breath for fear of disturbing him.
After a long while, Song Wentian spoke solemnly: "It is just as I expected."
He released Ye Xuanqi's wrist and said, "The barrier in your body has been destroyed by the fetal poison. I need to reset the barrier tonight."
He turned around and told Song Yunxi about some medicinal materials: "Both the medicinal bath and the decoction are indispensable."
Song Yunxi nodded immediately: "Don't worry, Dad, I will prepare it right away."
After saying that, he looked at Ye Xuanqi meaningfully and said coldly: "If you dare to die, I promise that I will never forgive you in my lifetime!"
Although her words were harsh, she did not notice that her voice was trembling.
She has been treating and prescribing medicine for Ye Xuanqi, trying every possible way to eliminate the fetal poison in his body. How could she not know how dangerous this fetal poison is?
If Dad hadn't set up a barrier to protect his heart, he would have been dead long ago.
