"Dead!" Qian Mian said, "It should be dead! Anyway, even Lu Rujing didn't find her, so it must be a disaster!" "Are you sure?" Shen Muxi didn't believe this, "It's this time, you How long do you plan to hide it? Han Tianming's position was originally snatched from Han Busu. Master, the most important thing right now is to help me cure Bo Yunxiu. I don't care about Phoenix Gu or Soul Resurrection Gu. I just want my husband to be safe."
Qian Mian pouted, "Then he really doesn't know!"
"You're still acting like a baby at such a young age, how shameless are you?" Shen Muxi stood up, feeling very irritable, walking back and forth in the room, "Lu Rujing hid it so deeply, could it be that...the other key is in his hand ?”
"Absolutely impossible!" Qian Mian rolled his eyes, "Do you think Han Er is a fool? The cunning rabbit has three holes, he has two holes more than the cunning rabbit. I guess the other key should be in someone we are not familiar with. .”
Shen Muxi looked at him firmly, "Is it possible?"
"It's possible! Er Er Han has never done things according to common sense. Didn't you watch him dismantle the Phoenix Gu?" Qianmian thought about it but couldn't figure out who would hold the other key, "The secret box is Found it in Bo Yunxiu's hands? Logically speaking, it's impossible, how could Han Laoer give the secret box to Bo's descendants."
"It was given by the queen mother!" Shen Muxi sighed softly, "Will you tell me that the other key is in the hands of the queen mother?"
Qian Mian shook his head, "If you save the secret box, you must not give the key, otherwise you won't be Han's second child!"
So, where is the key
Qianmian looked at Shen Muxi, Shen Muxi looked at Qianmian, the two of them were silent for a while, completely clueless.
"Wait a minute!" Shen Muxi suddenly remembered something, "At the beginning, the Queen Mother mistook Wei Xian'er because there was also a mark on Wei Xian'er's arm, and that mark was made by the key. In Wei Ruoyun's hands?"
"Wei Ruoyun is very paranoid. If the key is in her hands, she will never hand it over!" Qianmian rubbed his brows, "This person was able to attack Han Tianming back then, and even conceived a child at all costs. One can imagine her obsession with Han Tianming... You, I'm afraid you're out of luck!"
Shen Muxi swung his sleeves and sat down, looking at the flickering candles on the desk, "You have to try if you have no hope!"
"Wei Ruoyun has been with Zhao Lianyi for so many years, and has been looking for another key, but she has never handed over her own key, so that no one knows that there are actually two keys. Such thoughts... are all for Han Tianming!" Qian Mian shook his head, "This woman is a lunatic!"
To love and not get it will drive people crazy.
But Wei Ruoyun's madness has already exceeded Han Tianming's expectations.
"Madman, you have to try!" Shen Muxi said to himself.
It was Han Busu who put her at the door of Xia's house back then, why didn't Han Busu kill her? She is Han Tianming's daughter, and Han Busu killed her, just to take this opportunity to take revenge on Han Tianming.
"Could it be that my father knows something?" Shen Muxi frowned, "My father has some contacts with Han Busu and left me the dominoes, so he must know something! Yes, father must know!"
Xia Li'an is still in the hands of the queen mother, which means she has to go to the queen mother
There was a slight pain in the brain, Shen Muxi held his forehead and remained silent.
In the house, it was extremely quiet.
Sitting in front of Bo Yu's bed, Shen Zhi looked at his long black eyelashes, remembering what his mother said, that Bo Yu was frightened and fainted, and that he might be insane when he woke up, Shen Zhi thought it was ridiculous.
Bo Yu's screaming expression is all over his head, it seems like he hasn't seen Bo Yu like this for a long time, right
"Ghost!" Bo Yu suddenly opened his eyes and sat up abruptly.
Unexpectedly, Bo Yu would sit up suddenly, and the two little heads hit each other immediately, and then they both exclaimed, each holding their foreheads so painful that tears came out.
"You, don't you have eyes?" Shen Zhi gritted his teeth, "Just bumping into me like this, are you trying to hit me to death?"
Bo Yuyuan was terribly frightened. He opened his eyes suddenly, and saw a face enlarged in front of his eyes. How could he tell who it was? It's all buzzing, and my mind is even more blank.
If it wasn't for being too familiar with Shen Zhi's voice, I'm afraid I still have to scream at this moment.
"Shen, Shen Zhi? Why are you here?" Bo Yu rubbed his forehead, looked at Shen Zhi's painful face, and hurriedly lifted the quilt, "How are you? I knocked you? Let me see, let me see !"
Bo Yu didn't care about the injury on his forehead, so he hurriedly broke Shen Zhi's hand, looked at the big red envelope on Shen Zhi's forehead, and couldn't help but froze on the spot, "Oh, it hit so hard, such a big bag!"
"Is there an iron bump on your head?" Shen Zhi pushed him away, got up and walked towards the table.
Needless to say, Bo Yu's forehead is really strong, Shen Zhi was a little dizzy when he was hit, and he was a little shaky when he walked. After finally sitting down, he quickly leaned on the table and rested for a while, "It made everyone dizzy Huh."
Bo Yu rubbed her forehead, and walked quickly to Shen Zhi's side, "I'm going to get the medicine, just wait! My aunt gave me a lot of medicine before, and I put them all together!"
"Promote blood circulation and remove stasis!" Shen Zhi poured himself a glass of water, drank a couple of sips, shook his head, and became much more awake.
Bo Yu really picked up a bottle of plaster and came back, "It's about this one, just rub it on and try it!"
"Your forehead is also badly hurt." Shen Zhi frowned, and Bo Yu carefully rubbed the medicine on him, "Be gentle!"
"It hurts?" Bo Yu tightened the cotton swab in his hand, "I have to rub it for you, otherwise I will have a bag on my forehead tomorrow, and I won't be able to make a joke if I'm asked."
"It's a joke on you, but you fainted from fright." Shen Zhi pushed him away, "Okay, just apply some medicine, and I'll give you some too!"
The plaster was cool and refreshing, Shen Zhi applied the medicine to Bo Yu, and blew twice, "This ointment for dispelling blood stasis is very effective, don't throw it around casually, things your mother gives are always the most useful, nowhere else I can't find it anywhere."
"En!" Bo Yu nodded and took the plaster, "You, are you really okay?"
"Take care of yourself!" Shen Zhi rolled his eyes, and his whole brain hurt from hitting him, which shows how hard Bo Yu's head is, "Damn it, you have the right to pretend it never happened, don't tell outsiders , remember?"
Bo Yu frowned at him, "Why?"
"How can there be so many reasons, if you don't tell me, just don't say it." Shen Zhi got up and walked out.
"Hey, hey, just remember, where are you going, won't you sleep tonight?" Bo Yu was puzzled, and quickly stopped him, "Where are you going?"
"My mother is back, I'll go and have a look!" Shen Zhi pushed him away, "Go to sleep first!"
Bo Yu stood at the door, frowning, "I won't wake you up tomorrow morning!"
But I don't know who wakes up every day.
The next morning, when Bo Yu woke up, he saw Shen Zhi sitting on the threshold, "Did you stay up all night, or did you get up early?"
"Go wash up, I might go to Changfu Palace today." Shen Zhi walked away without looking back.
Bo Yu was stunned for a while, before Shen Zhi refused to step into the gate of Changfu Palace, what happened today
Hearing that Shen Zhi was coming to Changfu Palace, the Empress Dowager ordered someone to buy pastries early in the morning. Anything suitable for children to eat and what children like to eat were all available. There were several long tables full of them, waiting for Shen Zhi to come.
"Empress Dowager, this is too much!" Mo Yu was worried, "Young master may not like such a ostentation."
"When he came here before, the Ai family didn't give him a good face, and he didn't know what he liked or didn't like, so today you just remember, he likes to eat or picks two more chopsticks. When he comes again in the future, the Ai family will I know what he likes." The queen mother could not listen to her advice.
Mo Yu sighed softly, "Empress Dowager, the young master is able to come, maybe it is because of Mrs. Xia's relationship! You should stop busy here, the young master will not appreciate it."
"Whether he appreciates it or not, this is Aijia's intention." The queen mother leaned on her stick, "Aijia just does what she can do, and as for what will happen to Zhier, Aijia will accept it."
Mo Yu shook her head and said nothing, she was completely wrong.
Shen Zhi came to Changfu Palace at noon, he didn't come to have lunch, and he didn't come to see the Empress Dowager, he wanted to see his grandfather. Even though the Empress Dowager recognized Xia Wenxi before, she did not dare to let Xia Li'an go, she was afraid that once Xia Li'an was let go, Shen Muxi would leave without any worries.
Selfish people can't change their nature in the end, and they inevitably put their own feelings first.
She didn't know that the reason why Shen Muxi had not been able to ask her for Xia Li'an was because she was worried that people from the Longevity Gate would do something to her father, and she was so afraid of gaining and losing again, she really, really didn't dare!
"Empress Dowager!" Shen Zhi saluted.
The queen mother is always the queen mother. In his eyes, this person has nothing to do with him, so he can only treat each other with the courtesy of a monarch and a minister.
"Excuse me!" How could the queen mother not know Shen Zhi's thoughts, the child's coming here is already a step backward, she is too late to be happy, no matter what Shen Zhi does, she will not mind, "Come on, you two have a look , if there is anything you like, just eat and take, don't hold back!"
Just as Shen Zhi was about to refuse, Bo Yu stepped forward, "Thank you, Grandmother!"
The words came to his lips and swallowed again, Shen Zhi pursed his lips and remained silent, watching Bo Yu running from one end of the long table to the other and back from the other end, and handed a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake to him, " Just give it a try, it seems that what Aunt Ri did is the same as this one?"
"My mother's sweet-scented osmanthus cake is the best. Unless it's made by her, other people's... I won't eat it!" Shen Zhi straightened his back and looked at Bao Yu coldly.
Being stared at by Shen Zhi, Bo Yu shyly withdrew her hand, "Forget it, I was just joking, just a moment of curiosity."
"Zhier!" The queen mother approached in a fawning manner, "Do you like to eat or play with? The imperial grandmother has a lot of gadgets and novelty gadgets, do you want to try them?"
Shen Zhi said with a straight face, "I'm not interested in any of this."
"Grandmother, Shen Zhi only likes to read books, and doesn't like anything else!" Bo Yu drank the fruit tea, but didn't dare to look at Shen Zhi's dark face.
Once this person gets angry, his face is really scary, and he can't talk to you for several days, chilling you, freezing you to death!
"Books?" The Queen Mother was stunned, "What kind of books do you like? The imperial grandmother doesn't have any books here, but there are Wenyuan Pavilion and Xingshu Pavilion in the Royal Study Room. There are many books in the Nanyuan Pavilion. "
Shen Zhi's face softened a little, but he still didn't speak.
"Zhi'er, if you like reading, Grandmother can help you!" The queen mother glanced at Mo Yu.
Mo Yu hurriedly presented a token, "Young master."
Bo Yu was taken aback, "Isn't this the original..."
At the beginning, Wei Xian'er relied on the Queen Mother's token to run amok in the palace, so much so that she entered the Nanyuan Pavilion and almost killed their two children. Now the Empress Dowager gave this token to Shen Zhi, which meant that Shen Zhi could enter and leave the palace freely in the future.
"Hold it!" The queen mother stuffed the token into Shen Zhi's hand, "It's a good thing to like to read books. A man who reads more will be wise and sensible. Don't be like the emperor's grandmother who lives in his own identity all his life and forgets how many times he has left." Use your head and forget that not everyone agrees with you."
Shen Zhi felt heavy in his hands. After thinking about it, he put it back into the Queen Mother's hand, "I don't need this thing, and you don't need to please me, because no matter what you do, I will not back down. Queen Mother, I am here today It's because of my grandfather, please let me meet him. If it's inconvenient, Shen Zhi will leave now!"
"Zhi'er!" The queen mother was anxious, "Don't worry, I didn't say I wouldn't let you see him!"
Shen Zhi paused, frowning at the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother waved, "Come back."
Seeing this, Bo Yu put down the snack in his hand, and quickly went to hold Shen Zhi's hand, "Don't be so anxious, how could you forget me when you left? And hold your hand, lest you turn around and throw me away again." Already!"
Shen Zhi frowned, looked at the tightly clenched hands, let out a sigh of relief, and looked up at the Queen Mother.
"Come!" The Queen Mother stretched out her hand and took Shen Zhi's other hand.
Shen Zhi didn't refuse, he really had something to see his grandfather, so for the time being, he went along with the Queen Mother's wishes.
After entering the Chunxi Hall, Mo Yu closed the door of the sleeping hall, and then walked towards the empress dowager's bed.
Shen Zhi looked at Mo Yu in surprise as he opened the footstool in front of the bed and lifted the board under the footstool.
This is an iron plate, extremely hard.
"Let's go!" Mo Yu lit a lamp, carried the lantern and walked down, "Be careful with your steps."
"Emperor Grandmother, why is there such a place under your bed?" Bo Yu asked inexplicably, his voice traveled far in this gloomy corridor, and there was a chill in it. "Someone dug it out on purpose." The queen mother sighed softly, lowered her eyebrows and looked at Shen Zhi, but she didn't say much in the end.
From the beginning to the end, Shen Zhi always looked ahead, neither tepid nor angry, and his face did not change. This temperament really resembles his father, Bo Yunxiu, calm, quiet, and doesn't talk much, but he is extremely stubborn. repentance.
"Actually, people have been here all along, and it's okay to just let Moyu come down to have a look." The Queen Mother explained, "Just go forward."
Going forward, there is a secret room with the door closed.
Mo Yu pushed open the door, and immediately there was a clear sound of iron chains inside.
The sound of ding ding dong dong made Shen Zhi pull out his hand suddenly, and rushed forward quickly.
In the cage made of fine iron, there was an old man with white beard and white hair, leaning against a corner of the cage and dozing off, holding a book in his hand. Perhaps I was tired from watching, or the candlelight was too dazzling, so I took a rest.
Hearing that someone came in, the old man just turned over and continued to sleep without even opening his eyelids.
"Master Xia!" Mo Yu called out in a low voice.
Xu is used to it, but the old man still turned his back to the outside and said nothing.
The Queen Mother stood there, nodding at Mo Yu.
Mo Yu quickly opened the cage and let Shen Zhi in.
Bo Yu frowned, and stood quietly outside the cage, holding on to the fence with both hands, not daring to make a sound. He watched as Shen Zhi paused every step, walked behind the old man with the sound of his footsteps suppressed, and then knelt down respectfully and kowtowed.
Her heart was sour, and Bo Yu's eyes were slightly red.
"Grandfather!" Shen Zhi whispered.
Probably because of the childish voice that was suddenly heard, the old man was a little surprised, turned around abruptly, almost knocked over the candlestick at hand, and when he frantically stabilized the candlestick, he squinted his eyes and looked at Shen Zhi who was kneeling in front of him, "Who is this?" My child? Why are you kneeling on me?"
Shen Zhi straightened his back and looked at him without changing his expression, "Grandfather, my name is Shen Zhi, my mother is Shen Muxi, and she is also Xia Wenxi. You are my grandfather, so Zhi'er naturally wants to kowtow to you!"
After finishing speaking, Shen Zhi kowtowed again, "Zhi'er bows to my grandfather, may my grandfather be in good health and prolong his life!"
The book in his hand fell to the ground with a thud, and the old man stood up tremblingly leaning on the fence, "You, tell me again, what's your mother's name?"
Shen Zhi raised his head, "My mother's name is Xia Wenxi, but now I've changed my name to Shen Muxi. Grandfather, I am your grandson, and my name is Shen Zhi! Zhi'er kowtows to my grandfather, and pays my respects to my grandfather!"
"Shen Zhi?" The old man hurriedly lifted the child up, and quickly brushed the dust off the child's lap, "Your mother, your mother is back? Shen Zhi? Zhi'er, a good name, a good name! Come on, let me see, hey Yo, they are all half-grown boys, so good! So good!"
"Grandfather, don't be sad!" Shen Zhi raised his hand and wiped away the tears on Xia Li'an's face, "Mother is fine, and Zhi'er is fine too. Uncle is now in Liushanzhuang, and father arranged for him to enter the government office. With my uncle's ability, he will soon be able to rise to the top. Asking Liushanzhuang, it was my grandfather's house at the beginning, my father has kept it intact, and now it belongs to us again!"
Xia Li'an burst into tears, "I didn't expect that I, Xia Li'an, would be able to taste the taste of family reunion in my lifetime."
Gently hugging my grandson tightly, the excitement at that moment cannot be expressed by all the poems and songs, all the words. After a few years, he stayed here for a long time, just waiting for the day of his death.
God opened his eyes and let him keep his eyes open until the day when his daughter brought her grandson back.
Lao Huai comforts, Lao Huai comforts!
Bo Yu walked in silently, glanced at the Queen Mother and Mo Yu outside the cage, took a deep breath, knelt down and kowtowed to Xia Li'an.
Not to mention that Xia Li'an was taken aback, even Shen Zhi was also stunned.
"Yu'er?" The queen mother was stunned, what happened to this child
Xia Li'an is Shen Muxi's adoptive father, it is only natural for Shen Zhi to worship his grandfather, but Bo Yu... really can't do it.
"I don't have a grandfather, but Shen Zhi and I are brothers, can I also call you grandfather?" Bo Yu asked.
Xia Li'an was taken aback for a moment, then frowned and looked at Shen Zhi.
"He is a child of Li Wangfu." Shen Zhi could only explain in this way, "He is my brother."
"I'm not a child of Prince Li." Bo Yu shook his head, "Prince Li is my adoptive father, that's all. Mrs. Xia, can I call you grandfather like Shen Zhi?"
Xia Li'an picked up Bo Yu, "If you like it, you can call Zhi'er together. I'm old, I like excitement, and I like you children even more."
Children are hope.
Looking at these two immature faces, he vaguely recalled the scene of bringing Xia Wenxi back when the heavy rain was pouring. That girl's lips were blue from the cold, her complexion was pale, and her crying was hoarse, enough to make people... feel compassionate.
Bo Yu nodded, "Thank you, grandfather."
Shen Zhi frowned, "You man, grab what I have, is that interesting?"
"Yes!" Bo Yu smiled at him.
Shen Zhi shook his head and sighed helplessly.
Looking at these two villains, Xia Li'an cried and laughed, "This is the happiest day I've had in years."
After finishing speaking, Xia Li'an looked up at the queen mother outside, "The queen mother brought the children in today, I don't know what it means? Why, do you still want to dig something out of me? Let me tell you, I don't know anything , Longevity Gate, or Clan Protector, I don’t know anything about it.”
"Xia Wenxi..." The queen mother hesitated for a while, "It's the daughter of the Ai family. Back then, the Ai family exchanged her with Wei Ruoyun's son, but Wei Ruoyun lost her unexpectedly!"
Xia Li'an sneered twice, "Retribution!"
The queen mother nodded, but did not refute, "It's retribution, retribution is not good, and the Ai family should bear the consequences of what they have done."
"Grandfather!" Shen Zhi pursed his lips, "My mother has something to tell you!"
Hearing this, Xia Li'an squatted down.
Shen Zhi leaned into Xia Li'an's ear and said a few words in a low voice, "Did grandfather hear everything clearly?"
Xia Li'an nodded, and hugged Shen Zhi, but he was still chained to his feet, and he was always imprisoned in such a place, where he had no strength to hold the child, so he could only hug Shen Zhi symbolically, and was extremely unwilling to let go She raised her hand, "Listen clearly, go back and tell your mother that Han Busu is the Aunt Han who was next to Concubine Nangui back then! She went to and from Xia's house and never revealed Xi'er's identity."
"What?" The queen mother was shocked, "Han Busu..."
"From the beginning to the end, she never said that Xi'er is your daughter. She only told me that Xi'er might become the last blood of the guardian clan, so I can take good care of her. The child is innocent, don't tell the child The truth, don't let people know about her existence!" Xia Li'an sneered, "Do you think that everyone is just like you, only focusing on those vain things? I raise Xi'er because I really love this daughter, not because of her value. !"
The queen mother tightened the stick in her hand, "So, you know that she has..."
"Of course I know, Han Busu told me that this child has Phoenix Gu, but the child's blood and Phoenix Gu can fuse with each other, which is enough to prove that Phoenix Gu will not hurt Xi'er, and can protect her at critical times!" Xia Li'an sighed, "Since then, I have not allowed her to step out of the mansion easily, and locked her in the scholar's mansion, but the child has grown up, and it cannot be locked with a wall and a door!"
The grievances between the Hu clan and the Bo family were finally resolved in the most merciful way.
"Back when Xi'er cheated to death, others might not be able to see it, but I have raised her for so many years, she is my daughter, my palm pearl, can I not see it?" Xia Li'an choked up, "I thought it would be too late if she left. Alright, leave Dongdu, a place of right and wrong, and with her optimistic temperament, no matter who she follows, she will be happy and live happily ever after."
who ever thought...
A thing of love is enough to break one's heart and soul, and it will be beyond redemption.
"Grandfather, my mother asked, did Han Busu leave anything behind?" Shen Zhi lowered his voice and asked next to Xia Li'an's ear, "For example, the keys?"
Xia Li'an thought about it carefully, and finally shook his head, "No!"
Shen Zhi was taken aback for a moment, his brows furrowed slightly.
No
Mother said, if there are two like that, one... Master gave it to him, and now it is in Mother's hands, so where is the other one? Is it not in the hands of my grandfather, or is it in the hands of Han Busu
"Then where is Han Busu?" Shen Zhi asked puzzled.
Xia Li'an shook her head, "The last time I saw her, she handed me the dominoes, and she seems to be not feeling well."
Bo Yu hurriedly asked, "Is he dead?"
There was a dead silence.
Shen Zhi pursed his lips, if he really died, wouldn't the clues be broken again here? Mother said, if you want to take out the things on your father, you have to find Han Busu. If Han Busu is dead, then is it true that father can't be saved
In a hurry, Shen Zhi drooped his head and clenched his fists in his sleeves, what should I do
"Han Busu!" The queen mother gritted her teeth, "Ai Jia knows something. Destiny has been looking for her for a long time. She has the map of the tomb of the wasteland. If you want to get the soul-returning Gu, you really have to go through her." hand."
"What is the Tomb of the Wasteland?" Bo Yu was puzzled.
Shen Zhi didn't understand either.
"The Ai family didn't know either. He just heard from Tianming that he said that the old patriarch of the guardian clan finally saved his hand and only told Han Busu the location of the tomb in the wasteland. After Han Busu disappeared, Tianming has been I sent someone to investigate, but I didn't expect her to be hiding in the palace, beside Concubine Nan Gui." The queen mother sighed softly, what's the use of saying these things now
Mo Yu frowned, "Han Busu's face has changed, and Concubine Nan Gui is protecting him, so it's not easy for others to see his flaws."
"Concubine Nan was greatly favored by Han Busu. Before she entered the palace, she was persecuted by the former empress. It was Han Busu who rescued her. Later, when she gave birth to the second prince, she had a difficult childbirth. If Han Busu hadn't saved her, both mother and child would have died. "Xia Li'an said, "Because Nan Guifei almost responded to Han Busu's request, to the point of giving up her life to protect each other. It is precisely because of Han Busu's relationship that Nan Guifei hated the family protection very much."
This makes sense, why did the first emperor overthrow the entire guardian clan because of Nan Guifei alone.
"But..." Xia Lian said again.
Everyone stared at him in unison, each holding their breath.
