Chapter 75 What am I afraid of the Huainan Palace?
Yu Xiaolian felt that she was very busy today, as if the national leaders took turns meeting with the ministers of civil and military affairs.

He and Jiang Lin came to the gazebo in the second courtyard. Yu Xiaolian sat on the stone bench, laying lazily on the stone table, resting his head on his arms, squinting his eyes sideways, "What's the matter? Tell me, I'm getting tired."

Sleepy in spring, tired in autumn and napping in summer, Yu Xiaolian is used to squinting for a while after lunch.

If this habit is formed, she will feel headaches and lose energy if she does not take a nap for a day.

Jiang Lin said seriously, "Some time ago, my father and I went hunting in the mountains. When we got home, we found that the house had been turned over. At that time, we thought it was a thief who stole the money. My father and I were glad that we buried the money in the cowshed." inside.

However, just the day before yesterday, I suddenly discovered that the white porcelain bottle containing the longevity Gu was missing. "

"You didn't throw away the white porcelain bottle containing the longevity Gu?" Yu Xiaolian frowned, "Who would steal that empty bottle? It's useless."

Jiang Lin continued, "I suspect Zhao Kuo stole it."

"You mean that we didn't fool Zhao Kuo at all when we talked about the trick of Millipede vine?"

"Zhao Kuo definitely didn't believe it, I guess he believed his own eyes more, but since there was no other evidence at the time, he had no choice but to give up.

After your family left Hewan Village, Zhao Kuo has been inquiring about your whereabouts. Be careful when you go out recently.

Also... the tomb of that grass ghost was known to the Pan family for some reason, and the Pan family reported it to the imperial court, and now many officials are digging the tomb at Ershantou.

Why do you say the imperial court sent people to dig that grass hag's tomb? "Jiang Lin couldn't figure it out.

Recently, relying on his good lightness skills, he sneaked around Ershantou several times, but there are many official missions in that place now, so he can't get close at all.

I just learned from the conversations with those people that the one who dug the Grass Hag's tomb was the son of Prince Huainan.

It's unbelievable that a majestic son of Huainan Prince, who has both power and money, would openly engage in the business of digging up people's graves.

Jiang Lin couldn't figure it out, but Yu Xiaolian knew something.

The sage of the witch clan raised the king of ten thousand Gus - Longevity Gu. It is rumored that although Longevity Gu is a kind of beneficial Gu, if it becomes the host of Longevity Gu, it can not only suppress and control all low-level Gu insects, but also become invulnerable to all poisons. , the existence of immortality.

You said such a good thing, no one would want it?
The person who most wants to obtain longevity Gu is none other than the current Holy Majesty.

In his twilight years and suffering from many illnesses, the current Holy Majesty, in order to obtain the longevity Gu, completely ignored the thoughts of his prince and son, and secretly issued a secret edict to his brothers and nephews. Whoever can find the longevity Gu for him will be able to do so. Be the next emperor of Great Liang.

Presumably, Jun Mobai's trip was also for longevity Gu.

When Yu Xiaolian first read the novel, although she read more than half of it, the author wrote about the Longevity Gu extremely mysteriously and mysteriously.From time to time, some real and false news of longevity Gu appeared. As for whether the real longevity Gu existed, Yu Xiaolian didn't know.

But Yu Xiaolian reckoned that the Longevity Gu might be a fictional thing created by the saintesses of the witch tribe.

"If Zhao Kuo really stole that bottle, he must have reported it to the Pan family. The Pan family is now involved with the prince of Huainan. I'm afraid things will not go well. They will find your house sooner or later. of."

Yu Xiaolian frowned, "It's fine if it's just the Pan family, but if Huainan Palace is involved, I think you and your father should leave Hewan Village and escape."

If Jun Mobai suspects that Jiang's father and son have obtained longevity Gu, I am afraid that their father and son will be murdered and bloody.

"Avoid?" Jiang Lin disagreed.

"What am I afraid of in the Huainan Prince's Mansion? I haven't broken any law, so how can he arrest people without a reason?"

Yu Xiaolian sighed, Jiang Lin is a man with well-developed limbs and a simple mind.

She had no choice but to explain, "The purpose of digging the tomb of the Huainan Palace is to find longevity Gu, and they are doing things for the emperor.

The emperor wants to kill someone, do you need to give you a reason?Without further ado, you and your father should leave Hewan Village as soon as the people from the Huainan Prince's Mansion have come. "

Jiang Lin's face changed slightly, "You mean, the emperor is looking for longevity Gu? But the longevity Gu has penetrated into my body, and now I don't know if it is dead or alive."

Yu Xiaolian gave Jiang Lin a white look, "There is no Longevity Gu in this world, the one in your body is just a Gu worm called Beauty Face."

Jiang Lin was puzzled, "Since there is no Longevity Gu in the world, why does the emperor take so much effort to find it?"

"Have you ever heard a sentence that says to quench thirst with plum blossoms and fill hunger with cakes. The emperor is already in his twilight years. It is rumored that longevity Gu has the effect of prolonging life and eliminating all diseases. Do you think he will be tempted?"

A person with power and status can turn his hand into clouds and his hands into rain. Of course, he hopes that he can live forever.

Throughout the ages, have the emperors done many ridiculous things in order to live forever?

In order to gain longevity, some emperors believed that alchemy and Taoist priests would instigate them, causing father and son to turn against each other, and there were not a few who killed their own sons.

The current emperor of Great Liang is absurd enough, he would not hesitate to cause turmoil in the court, but also to find longevity Gu.

Jiang Lin said with a bitter face, "But if we leave Hewan Village, where can we go? I'm not sure if I can convince my father."

"If it is not a matter of life and death, I will not advise you to leave your hometown.

If you go, you must go in the direction of the south of the Yangtze River. There may be a severe drought in the north next year.

Next fall, I will take my parents to Jiangnan. I plan to settle in Jiecheng in the future. Why don't you father and son also go to Jiecheng? "

It's not easy for Yu Xiaolian to come and go, she has to avoid Jun Mobai and the others to get up well, Jiecheng is the border of Great Liang and Great Meng, so it can be considered remote.

In order to save her life, she can be regarded as begging for perfection and painstakingly.

"But, I heard that Jiecheng is remote and desolate, why did you go to Jiecheng?"

Jiang Lin was worried, why go to such poor and remote places instead of going to so many good places?
Yu Xiaolian took out fifty taels of silver from the space and put it on the stone table, "I have my own reasons, you take the fifty taels first, and rent a small yard when you arrive in Jiecheng, it won't cost much. Around the time of the winter solstice next year, I will be able to meet you in the past."

Jiang Lin pushed the money away, "No, my father and I have saved a lot of money over the years, but my father won't let me spend it carelessly, saying that it will be reserved for me to marry a wife."

Yu Xiaolian said again, "You take the money, and you can rent a yard for me, so that I won't have nowhere to stay when I arrive in Jiecheng."

Jiang Lin nodded, "Okay, then I'll go home first, I have to discuss it with my father, I don't know if he agrees to go to Jiecheng, if we go to Jiecheng, I will ask Su Jingchen You send a message..."

Yu Xiaolian warned, "There will be a severe drought next year. In autumn, the crops will not be harvested. In another year, there will be no water source. The whole Hewan Village will have to flee the famine. It is better to go now than when it is chaotic. too much."

Jiang Lin nodded, "I understand, if I settle down in Jiecheng, I will send you a message from the Escort Bureau."
