131. Prince
"Senior, it's not that I want to refuse, it's just..."
"Okay, as long as you don't refuse, it's settled. Should we leave now or wait for a meal?"
Before Gong Yexun could finish what he said, Di Hu continued the words very familiarly. He looked like he was discussing with you, but in fact he had already made a decision and left as soon as he said it.
Gongye Xun was stunned and opened his mouth. He really had no temper for this scoundrel.
Is this the old timer?
"Is Miss Gu here too?" Chu Yunqing asked.
Seeing that he changed the subject, Gongye Xun quickly said: "It's next door, do you want to meet Brother Chu?"
"Another girl?" Di Hu glanced at Chu Yunqing.
"She'll be fine if nothing happens." Chu Yunqing nodded.
At this time, a palace guard came in, came straight this way, and said, "Guys, His Highness wants to see you."
"The prince wants to see us?" Gong Yexun subconsciously looked at Chu Yunqing.
"We'll go over there right away." Although Chu Yunqing said this, his eyes flickered, and he was obviously planning to run away.
But Di Hu quietly pulled him and waved his hand for him to come over, "There are good things in the Palace of Eternal Life, don't you want to take a look?"
Chu Yunqing shook his head, "I don't want to."
Di Hu choked.
Gong Yexun, who was following him, naturally noticed the whispers between the two, and was helpless at this time.
"In ancient times, do you know what your practice is called?" Di Hu said in a low voice.
Chu Yunqing asked doubtfully: "Ancient method?"
"The hidden family practiced ancient methods." Di Hu smiled mysteriously.
Chu Yunqing's heart moved. Although he had never seen the power of the Hidden World Family, he had experienced the strength of the Faceless Family before.
For example, the strong man who had fought against him during the day, and his powerful Qi and Blood Kung Fu, was now lying in his arms, and he had not had time to read it carefully for a long time.
That's just the case for Wu Mian who has some relationship with the Hidden World Family. What if it is the ancient method practiced by the real Hidden World Family?
At this time, when Chu Yunqing heard what Di Hu said, he said in his heart that it was impossible not to be curious.
But he had also heard from Gong Yexun before that the Palace of Immortality was extremely important and not something ordinary people could enter just because it wanted to. Especially since it was the core of His Majesty’s plan for immortality. If something went wrong if he entered it, he would be in danger.
We can't afford to wait, and it may even bring trouble to Gongye Xun.
Therefore, Chu Yunqing had no choice but to suppress the curiosity in his heart and pretended that he had not heard what Di Hu said.
But Di Hu didn't give up. He said: "The path you are currently practicing is already connected with the hidden family. You are just short of enlightenment. It would be a pity if you don't take the step forward."
Chu Yunqing remained unmoved.
Di Hu then said: "One thought can make you fade away from the mortal world. You are really willing to miss it like this."
"It's easy for seniors to say it. Can I get the ancient method by going to the Palace of Eternal Life?" Chu Yunqing said with a smile.
Di Hu said anxiously: "Cultivation of both "Xing and Ming", what you lack is "Elixir"!"
Chu Yunqing's expression changed, and he couldn't help but continue to ask, but the palace was already in front of him.
The palace guard opened the door and waited on one side, and the three of them went in.
In addition to the accompanying maids, there was Prince Zhou Xian sitting upright, with steaming tea on the table.
Chu Yunqing glanced inside and saw Gu Meishu's figure sitting beside the bed behind the bead curtain.
"You three, please take a seat." The prince quickly stood up and greeted.
Gongye Xun quickly returned the gift.
Chu Yunqing also clasped his fists.
On the contrary, Di Hu felt as if he had returned to his own home, his expression was too calm, and he sat down directly without waiting for any courtesy.
The prince coughed, with a smile on his face, showing no hint of displeasure.
"Both of you, sit down too." He raised his hand to beckon, and then the maid on the side came forward to pour tea.
"Thank you, Your Highness." Gongye Xun lowered his head slightly.
He is an educated and well-behaved man. Although he is an outsider, since he has followed his master into the palace and is in charge of the Palace of Eternal Life, he is already half an official, so of course he must abide by the palace etiquette.
Chu Yunqing also nodded. Even though he had a preconceived idea, it was inevitable that he would not have a good impression of the fake prince, but he did his best to show off his behavior without showing anything strange.
The prince looked at the three of them and said with a smile, "Thanks to you three, otherwise Wan'er would have been in danger."
"She was poisoned by a powerful poison, and the right time, place, and people were in her favour. If anything were missing, she would be dead." Di Hu's tone was unceremonious.
The prince nodded in agreement, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, senior."
"It's just an entrustment. Prince, there is no need to be polite." Di Hu waved his hand and drank tea by himself.
He now completely believes what Chu Yunqing told him before, that this prince is just a fake.
The prince nodded, then looked at Chu Yunqing, and asked with a hint of confusion: "I wonder who this is?"
"My man." Before Chu Yunqing could say anything, Di Hu smiled and said, "You have some strength, but it's hard to walk at night. Thanks to him and me entering the palace."
"That's it." The prince didn't know whether he believed it or not. He just smiled and said: "This brother is so impressive that he looks like a hero in the world."
Chu Yunqing smiled innocently, scratched his head and said, "There is no such thing as a martial artist. A certain family is just a collector of herbs."
The prince asked: "Then who invited senior to come here? Thanks to this person, I really have to thank him very much."
"It's him." Di Hu raised his chin towards Gong Ye, his expression unchanged.
Gong Yexun was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Yes, I heard that my junior sister and junior brother made a mistake in the East Palace, and then I heard about the poisoning of the Crown Princess. I was worried, so I hurriedly invited the senior miracle doctor to come.
Fortunately, we caught up."
Although he was not sure why he should give himself the credit for this matter, he felt that Chu Yunqing might have some difficulties in doing so, so he took the credit.
"That's how it is." The prince sighed with emotion: "I left the palace early to look for the old man, but unfortunately I came to nothing. I was quite depressed at the time, but I am lucky enough to be fine."
Immediately, he stood up quickly and bowed to Gongye Xun with some apology, "I thanked Taoist Master Gongye for Wan'er. In addition, the people under my command were ignorant and made Master Gu and Master Qingshui suffer."
"The prince is serious." Gongye Xun also stood up, but he couldn't let the prince bow down.
"Who poisoned it?" Di Hu asked.
The prince shook his head and said: "The murderer is cunning and didn't leave any clues. I'm afraid it won't be easy to find him."
"Does Your Highness know why someone would poison the Crown Princess?" Di Hu asked again.
"I find this strange too. Wan'er has always been kind to others and never left the palace easily. I really can't imagine who would want to harm her." The prince looked puzzled.
"Could it be the people around me?" Di Hu said, "hate due to jealousy?"
"This..." the prince hesitated, "it's possible."
"Anyway, it's good that Wan'er is fine, and I will definitely investigate the murderer!" he said seriously.
