Drunken Amtang

Po Meng took out a book from her bosom, opened it and handed it to An Yao. After reading it, An Yao's expression changed drastically.

"You mean..."

"I met Su Tang a few days ago and looked at his soul carefully. He is Xuemo."

Po Meng observed the expression of the person in front of her while talking, while An Yao stared at the words on the page without saying a word,

"Xiao Anyao, there is no way to evoke Xuemo's memory in this book. It only says that the soul of the epiphyte will grow on its own. The soul I saw this time is much bigger than two years ago, so I think, is it the soul that grows?" After reaching a certain level, Xuemo will come back."

"Xuemo is not dead. Xuemo."

Tears rolled down the corners of his eyes, An Yao looked up at Granny Meng with a delighted smile on her face, the last time Granny Meng saw him with this smile was hundreds of years ago when he came back from his travels and happily told interesting stories about his journey.

The corners of her lips curled up involuntarily.

"Well, Xuemo is not dead."

"Son!"

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, An Yao recognized it was Xiao Shisan, put the book under the cushion and wiped the tears from his face, Granny Meng quickly disappeared and stood aside,

"come in."

Xiao Shisan opened the door, and there were a few night guards carrying buckets outside. An Yao had ordered them to fetch some well water for him to bathe at this time every other day.Xiao Shisan entered the room and saw An Yao was leaning on the couch drinking as usual, but he didn't know if it was his own illusion, but he always felt that the son's eyes were a little red today.

"My lord, the well water is ready, do you have any other orders?"

"It's okay, you go back and rest."

"Okay, young master also rest earlier."

"Well, I see."

It wasn't until the group left the room that Po Meng appeared again.

"What did you ask them to dig well water for?"

"It's better to soak in it when you are punished."

Granny Meng suddenly remembered this matter, seeing An Yao get up and walk towards the tub, grabbing his sleeve,

"Xiao Anyao, go back to the valley, I have already cleaned up those Wu Jun's corpses for you, may I take you back?"

"It's okay, it's only an hour and I can bear it. I still have things to do here, and I will go back when everything is over. Don't worry, I have my own measure."

"Why don't I worry about it, when did you overdo things involving Xuemo?"

"Sister, can you trust me once?"

When Po Meng heard him call her sister, she let go of her sleeve, knowing that what she said was useless.

An Yao put on his clothes and went directly into the bathtub, and Po Meng felt a throbbing pain in her heart seeing the pained look on his face.An hour later, An Yao staggered up from the bucket, and Granny Meng helped him out and sat on a chair beside him.

"Sister, can you come back tomorrow night and take me to see Su Tang? I'm too embarrassed today, and I don't want him to worry."

Granny Meng wiped the sweat off his forehead and agreed repeatedly, An Yao changed into a change of clothes and lay down on the bed, Granny Meng helped him wrap the quilt, making sure that he had slept soundly before returning to Huangquan.

The two armies of Wu and Jin fought for several months, and the gods fought and the people suffered. Hundreds of miles of people on the border between the two countries were devastated by the war and displaced. He acted like an outsider watching, the fourth prince had always thought that they were waiting for the two countries to be at the mercy of the fisherman, but who knew that this morning, the envoy from the Kingdom of Chen proposed marriage to King Wu.

King Wu placed the envoys in the station. The eldest prince was in trouble early, the second prince had already married, and the other princes were still young. Only the third prince Wu Qi and the fourth prince Wu Yu were left who could make peace with Chen. He actually proposed to let Princess Chen come to the capital for a few days and decide on her own.King Wu summoned the two of them to the palace to discuss matters.

"What do you think of the morning affairs today?"

The Fourth Prince was swinging a fan and sitting on a chair studying the tea in the teapot. King Wu had already gotten used to his absurd appearance and ignored him.

"At this time, we are at war with the Kingdom of Jin. The intention of the Kingdom of Chen is to make peace on the surface, but in fact it is to form an alliance with us. It will be of great benefit if this matter is completed."

The third prince didn't expect the fourth brother to say anything, so he answered Wu Wang's question by himself,

"Of course I know, but the question now is which of the two of you will marry the princess."

Fourth Prince took a sip of the tea in front of him,

"Father, where did you get this tea? It tastes good. Give your son some to take back to drink."

Wu Wang rubbed his temples and felt a little headache

"I don't know when you'll grow up."

"I have father, emperor, second brother and third brother. It's not my turn to worry about these things. If you want me to marry that princess, I will marry that princess, but they want the princess to choose one among us. Anyway, I am like this. It can't be changed, anyone who looks at the princess will choose the third brother, so don't bother, let the third brother take her around when she comes to see if it's fine."

"Xiaosi's words are also reasonable, but Wu Qi has been wronged."

"Father is too worried, it is the son's duty to share the country's worries."

The Fourth Prince clapped his hands aside and got up,

"As expected of the third brother, since the matter has been finished, Erchen will leave first."

"Okay, you can't sit still for a long time, Wu Qi stays and helps me approve some papers, Wu Yu, go back."

The fourth prince fanned his paper fan and walked out of the imperial study room. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the father and son in the room, and a sneer appeared on his lips. His third brother is really good at pretending for ten years.

The fourth prince sent his entourage back to the palace to deliver the good wine he got a few days ago to Zuihuaju, and he went there first by himself in a sedan chair.The old bustard told him that Mr. Antang was dealing with the news in the secret room, so he casually took a plate of snacks from the downstairs table and walked up.

An Yao was searching for news about the army as usual, when he heard footsteps outside the door, he put down the paper tube in his hand and took out a booklet with the family history of the minister, and when the fourth prince came in with snacks, he opened the door. Seeing An Yao sitting behind the desk reading the booklet with relish.

"Master Antang likes to watch these?"

"To pass the time with nothing to do."

"What's new today?"

"I sorted it out on the shelf over there, but it's nothing important."

"Okay, I see, but I learned one thing this morning."

"What's the matter?"
