After Zhou Zhou left the Taihe Hall, Eunuch Kang has been guarding Chen Mao in fear.

Seeing that Eunuch Kang's face was so bad, Chen Du couldn't help but comfort him: "Eunuch Kang, don't worry too much, since the Master of the State Teacher said that Brother Huang will wake up soon, he will definitely wake up soon."

Eunuch Kang Nuonuo responded and sighed softly, "King Xie Ning..."

For some reason, Eunuch Kang just felt uneasy.

"It should be." Chen Du replied, the two were speechless, and the huge bedroom fell into silence again.

The little boy sat at the head of Chen Mao's bed, holding Chen Mao's hand, without saying a word, very well-behaved.

Before Zhou Zhou left the Taihe Hall, he told him to guard Chen Ke, so the little boy sat obediently and "watched" Chen Mao, but if he was asked where Zhou Zhou had gone, he shook his head and said he didn't know.

The leaking clock was turned upside down twice, and the night was getting darker. Zhou Zhou never came back. Mr. Kang felt that something was wrong, so he sent someone to look for it, but he couldn't find it. He only knew that the national teacher and the prime minister, Mr. Yan, entered the Tianqi Building together, and he has not come out so far. .

Eunuch Kang stood at the corner of the corridor and listened to the reports of his subordinates. Hearing this, he looked back worriedly at the people on the dragon bed.

Intuition told Eunuch Kang that something may have happened to the national teacher.If something happens to the national teacher, how should the emperor explain it when he wakes up?

Chen Duzhi stood up by accident, but the imperial doctor said it was due to urgency, but because of the unhealed old disease in his leg and muscle weakness, standing up suddenly aggravated the injury and required a longer rest period.

Having said that, he finally stood up, and Chen Du sat by the window, looking at the garden that was getting dark outside.

When the little boy yelled "The emperor is awake", Chen Du didn't recover for a while, until Eunuch Kang rushed into the hall in a hurry, Chen Du hurriedly pushed the wheelchair to the bedside.

But Chen Du didn't dare to get too close. After two steps away, he stopped the wheelchair and looked nervously at Chen Mao.

Chen Mao's eyelashes trembled, and he slowly opened his eyes.

Knowing that he was probably in a state of suspended animation, Chen Mao calmly tried to move his body while waiting for the medicine to wear off.

This was extremely exhausting, so Chen Mao was awake intermittently, and the closer to the time when the medicine expired, the longer he would be awake.

Chen Mao could always hear Zhou Zhou talking to him, but Zhou Zhou didn't seem to be by his side. Three hours passed, and he never heard Zhou Zhou's voice again.

When Chen Mao woke up, the happiest thing was Eunuch Kang, who burst into tears instantly, but Chen Mao had no time to comfort him, he struggled to sit up, "Where's Zhou Zhou?"

"Uh..." Eunuch Kang's heart tightened, "Master Guoshi and Lord Yan entered the Tianqi Building, but they haven't come out yet."

"Let's go to Tianqi Building." Chen Mao sat up vigorously, but fell down weakly. After all, he hadn't eaten for three days, and Chen Mao's body was extremely weak.

"Your Majesty!" Eunuch Kang went forward to help Chen Mao to lie down, but he wanted to make Chen Mao rest, but he knew that Chen Mao would not listen.

Sure enough, Chen Mao insisted on getting out of bed, but Eunuch Kang couldn't help it, so he hurriedly called for a walking chariot, and hurried to Tianqi Tower.

The child followed Chen Mao into the chariot, and Chen Mao leaned on the child's thin body, looking nervously at the road ahead.

The palace people on the road saw the bright and yellow walking chariot from a distance and knelt down, but they couldn't tell whether there was one person or two people on the walking chariot, Chen Mao didn't care, his mind kept spinning what Zhou Zhou said to him The last sentence:

"I have to go, don't wait for me, listen to the boy when you wake up, eat well, and rest well."

Chen Mao originally thought it was just an ordinary sentence between them, but in retrospect, the words "Don't wait for me" seemed to hide deep emotions.

Chen Mao held Xiaotong's hand, holding it tighter and tighter, Xiaotong didn't speak, he didn't seem to feel any pain, like a wooden man without feeling, quietly supporting Chen Mao.

Suddenly, Xiao Tong was attracted by the palace man on the side of the road.The little boy was blind, so his action of "looking" at something was particularly conspicuous, and because of the special connection between the little boy and Zhou Zhou, Chen Mao also nervously looked at those palace servants.

Those were a few servants in blue eunuch uniforms. They looked like they were the last among the palace people. Behind them was a big box, as if they were carrying something.

"Wait." Chen Mao said, and the chariot stopped.

Those palace people buried their faces even lower.

"Open the box."

After hearing this clearly, Eunuch Kang hurriedly shouted to those palace people: "Open the box!"

The box was opened, and there were some miscellaneous things inside. A box was piled up in disarray, a large part of which was books and booklets.

"Where are you from?" Eunuch Kang asked on his behalf.

The one standing at the corner lowered his head and respectfully said: "We are from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Imperial Academy sent us to move some things." The voice sounded unnatural, and it seemed that it could be lowered.

Eunuch Kang also saw the clues, and sneered with a "heh", "The Imperial Academy asked you to move things? Is it because you are a slave, or because you think the emperor is a fool?"

The man buried his head even lower: "I dare not."

He lowered his head, revealing a snow-white neck, which was very conspicuous among the crowd of palace people. Chen Mao frowned: "Raise your head."

The man kept his head down, and Eunuch Kang scolded him, but he still didn't move, so Eunuch Kang had no choice but to go forward in person.At this moment, an exclamation came from the direction of Tianqi Building: "It's gone!"

Chen Mao hurriedly looked up, and there was black smoke floating over Tianqi Courtyard.

"Go!" Chen Mao ordered, but he did not forget to order: "Arrest all these people!"

The walking chariot moved again, Chen Mao turned his head and saw the guards surrounded those palace people, in the gradually shrinking encirclement, there was a face of peerless beauty.

The slightly raised peach eyes, and the tightly pursed lips showed a kind of calmness and sharpness, but the style of the eyebrows made people unable to move their eyes away.

The two suddenly looked at each other, and Chen Mao saw complicated emotions hidden in those eyes.

The fire in Tianqi building was not serious, and the fire started on the periphery of Tianqi courtyard.He Xin found out just after it started to ignite, but the fire was so strange that he sent most of his people to put out the fire, and led a small group of people to search along the perimeter of Tianqiyuan. chariot.

The emperor came in person?He Xin was surprised. Seeing Eunuch Kang approaching the courtyard and about to rush in, He Xin hurriedly stopped him: "Eunuch Kang! Wait a minute!"

Eunuch Kang paused, and was about to push away the congratulatory letter, but how could the congratulatory letter, which has been practicing martial arts all year round, be easily pushed away?

He Xin stood firmly in front of the gate of Tianqi Academy, "Eunuch Kang, please stay. The National Teacher has ordered that no one can enter."

"Do you know that the emperor is here?" Eunuch Kang was surprised and angry. Is this congratulatory letter really stupid or is it trying to rebel?

He Xin showed a hesitant look for a moment, "But Mr. Yan said..."

"Master Yan?" Eunuch Kang grabbed the congratulatory letter, "Master Yan has been here? Where is he?"

He Xin was confused, and faintly sensed that something was wrong, "I just left, not long ago..."

As soon as the words fell, He Xin was shocked to see the emperor leading a child off the chariot.

"Get out!" Chen Mao was so angry that he endured the discomfort in his body and walked towards the Tianqi Building. He Xin didn't dare to stop him, but his legs softened and he knelt down.

Eunuch Kang helped Chen Mao to walk in, but Chen Mao waved his hand away, "Leave me alone, go find the national teacher!"

Eunuch Kang had no choice but to run to Tianqi Building. This time, the gate of Tianqi Building was still open, and the building was still empty.

But last time Eunuch Kang saw that the black stone had changed color, and there were blood beads rolling down on the stone, converging into a pool of blood on the ground, and there was a person lying in the pool of blood—it was Zhou Zhou.

Chen Mao swayed and almost couldn't stand up.

Chen Mao walked towards Zhou Zhou, feeling a little overwhelmed, his face pale.But the little boy let go of Chen Mao's hand, and rushed straight to Zhou Zhou, crying with a bit of confusion and grievance: "My lord..."

"Prince doctor! Call me doctor!" Eunuch Kang reacted quickly and shouted in a hurry, but he didn't dare to stay too far away from Chen Mao.

At this time, Chen Mao's attention was all on Zhou Zhou, and he knelt beside Zhou Zhou, carefully checking Zhou Zhou's breath.

—and faint breathing.

fortunately……

Chen Mao's eyes were wet for a moment. He touched Zhou Zhou's hand with trembling hands, and found that Zhou Zhou's palm had the same wound as last time. There was a knife wound with deep bone visible on each of his left and right hands. Beside Zhou Zhou, there was a black short dagger.

"When will the Tai Hospital arrive? Are all the palaces raising waste?"

"The emperor calms down, please..."

"Where are those people just now?" Chen Mao maintained his final sobriety, "Arrest them and guard them strictly!"

"Yes!"

"And..." Chen Mao took a deep breath: "Send someone to invite Prime Minister Yan into the palace, I want to see him immediately."

--split line--

"My lord, there is no trace of Mr. Xu on the West Road."

"My lord, I searched along the east road for a day, but I didn't find any trace of Mr. Xu."

"My lord, some soldiers saw Mr. Xu going out of the camp with the little girl in the medical tent."

"My lord, that Aman girl was found fainted near the grain and grass depot. She was hit on the head by a heavy object, and she is still in a coma."

"Reporting to my lord, the enemy army rushed forward and stopped at a place fifteen miles outside the city three hours ago. I would like to ask your lord for instructions on how to deploy next."

"Uh..." Xu Qingfeng has not returned since leaving the camp yesterday, Chen Ke has been sullen, Cao Dingkun and others have seen the abnormally terrifying side of King Ren for the first time, and King Ren dispatched everyone who could be dispatched yesterday afternoon Went out to look for Xu Qingfeng, but Xu Qingfeng and the girl named "Tassia" disappeared together.

Because of Xu Qingfeng's special status, no one dared to stop Xu Qingfeng, and no one would see their whereabouts after leaving the camp. No one suspected that there was something wrong with Tasiya, and the matter was at an impasse, but everything seemed to indicate that Xu Qingfeng was left by himself.Cao Dingkun and the others thought so, but they didn't dare to say it. At this time, Chen Yikai reported the bad news from the front again. For a while, no one in the camp spoke, and they all looked at Chen Ke quietly.

Chen Ke looked at the things in his hand, but did not speak.What he held in his hand was a stone, which was the stone of life and death that he was most familiar with, and Xu Qingfeng never left it.

He couldn't take it off even after taking a bath, but last night, he found it in a patch of grass.

The lanyard on the stone is still there, and there are no scratches on the stone of life and death, as if it was deliberately hidden in the grass after it was untied.

Chen Mao was thoughtful.

"My lord..." Seeing that Chen Ke was just staring at the stone in his hand in a daze, Chen Yikai couldn't help frowning, and reminded him aloud.

"Understood." Chen Ke said lightly, "It's still necessary to fight."
