Chapter 129 Dangerous Land

Gu Yue used the excuse of carefully observing Yu Jian's mind and thinking about his current situation, because he was indeed in a different mood today, and he was pushed into a dangerous place by the eldest prince without thinking more.

He originally thought that at most it was to treat the disease, but he never expected that the eldest prince asked him to treat the disease to be a part of testing his perception, especially the copper-skinned iron bones tempered by the medicinal bath, thinking about it carefully, wouldn’t it make the test more difficult?

The eldest prince's open-mindedness may be true or deliberate, but no matter what, his open-mindedness has laid the foundation for casually telling the secrets of the past, which caught Gu Yue off guard. Just imagine, a capable and promising prince whose descendants are favored by the emperor, and the future is more than just a promising one. But even such a prince died suddenly in his own home, and the case has been unresolved. It is obvious that the beneficiary can only be the current Emperor Chu, so does the murderer really have nothing to do with him?

On the other hand, isn’t Chu’s protection and respect for the eldest prince a concealment?

And the eldest prince knows these things, or doesn't know them? Or pretending to be confused with understanding...

No matter what, the eldest prince left the jade sword as a portrayal of his own attitude. After all, the murderer will definitely be irreconcilable to anyone who is the murderer, but can this matter be made public? What if it is introduced into the ears of Emperor Chu?

So Gu Yue is tied to the ship of the eldest prince and cannot leave easily, otherwise it may be a murder to silence the patient, but is it really safe to stay on the ship?

"I regret it a little. How stupid I was just now, I screamed out? The 'Fifth-grade Inscription' obviously ignited the eldest prince's anger. Originally, he was just sick and tried to treat the doctor, and was just a dying horse. Now, I became that doctor... It seems difficult to get out of it. How to protect myself? I just said that I would have to treat it slowly for seven days, but he should not do it directly in these days, right? Well, at least the possibility is greater, but there is no guarantee. Moreover, this guy has a prominent status and a prominent position. Tsk, there is no solution... I can only think about how to use it to him in this matter, right? Well, the fishing plan I just thought of seems to be very necessary, but this matter must be properly operated, especially to let him understand that this inscription is not necessarily useful, even if I find a fifth-grade inscription master, it may not be useful! Yes, just do it!"

With a certain plan, Gu Yue began to have a poor acting skills.

"Brother Xiang, the structure and inscription of this jade sword seem to have some echo, especially these gems, which are too dazzling. I think the mystery is probably here."

"This matter is very important to Brother Yu. I would like to ask you to give me advice. Even if there is a clue, it's okay!"

"Brother Xiang, don't be polite. Since I saw this object, I should do my best. Then I will make a bold guess. Whether it is accurate or not, I will have to have the opportunity to crack this inscription in the future. I have already recorded the inscription I can see, but this incomplete part will take some time to explore... For now, this structure reminds me of something. Have you ever heard of the injected true qi into some kind of artifact and stored it, or throwing it as a weapon, or drawing it to supplement yourself, which can be used for the future?"

"Does my brother mean that this gem contains true energy?"

"That's right, according to my observation, there was a huge amount of true energy stored here. It may have been dissipated over the years that the remaining amount is not too much, so it is difficult to feel that kind of momentum, but I do have my own way to sense the traces of true energy."

The eldest prince's expression showed that he was becoming more and more confident. After all, the reason why he asked Gu Yue to come to participate in this matter was to bet on Gu Yue's magical perception. Without careful examination, you can see the footprints and elements remaining. These have spread throughout the valley. He used his body to further prove that Gu Yue is indeed not a waste.

"I'm afraid we can see that there are only a few people in this world except for you, the virtuous brother. Brother Yu can trust you. So, will these true energy be left by the father back then?"

"If I guessed it well, this jade sword should be given by someone who is very important to the prince. The reason why the prince can't put it down and plays it often is probably because he has an agreement with the person who has increased the sword. For example, this gem can be filled with true energy to achieve a more dazzling effect. If all the gems are filled, it may be the day of fulfilling some kind of agreement. With this expectation, the prince often injects his true energy into it. However, the consumption and replenishment of true energy takes time. I believe the prince is unlikely to force his true energy to dry up for a moment, so it is the result of frequent playing. But the prince will definitely not know that this is a strategy against him. After a sufficient number of gems on this jade sword is filled, the function of the inscription is finally activated, and this function is probably to extract the holder's energy and spirit until it is drained..."

The eldest prince became more and more frightened as he heard it, and he couldn't help but roar, "Who is so vicious!"

"Your Highness calms down, please keep a low profile and make a long-term plan, be careful of the walls..." Gu Yue glanced at the general in a serious way, but the latter was as unresponsive as a wood carving, and even had no expression on his face.

"You may as well be your own people," the eldest prince understood Gu Yue's meaning, "I just don't know if my brother can help me?"

"I should do my best to meet you. I will not hide it from you. I have a habit of exploring the truth. The case yesterday should have spread a lot, although it is the result... I really enjoyed it in the process. This unsolved case will inevitably be more difficult and more involved, and it also makes me feel inexplicably excited..."

"So that's it..." The eldest prince seemed to be thinking about Gu Yue's words and paused for a moment, then bowed to the end, "Please help me with my brother!"

"Brother Xiang doesn't have to do this. Since brothers are matched, it's fate. When I encounter this, I'll be responsible for it. Just a rough consideration. The scene is probably very deep and most of the people involved are in high power."

"You mean..." The eldest prince understood what Gu Yue pointed out, but seemed unwilling to believe it.

"Anyway, His Majesty is the biggest beneficiary now, but I still think that his suspicion is not very high."

"Oh? How do you see it?"

"Brother Xiang naturally should know Your Majesty's character better than you, right? I wonder what Your Majesty has to do to you over the years?"

"Just like a biological child..."

"Did Brother Xiang understand your Majesty's ambition?"

"The strength of Chu State will avenge the previous shame and create glory!"

"That's right, although I don't know much about Your Majesty, I can understand Your Majesty's ambitions. Everything is for the State of Chu... If this is the idea, then your protection and respect for Brother Xiang should not be superficial. After all, Eunuch Xu is old, who else can you raise a flag in the future? I'm afraid that Your Majesty is looking forward to the arrival of Brother Xiang, you will surpass the general!"

"You mean..."

"The emperor has no relatives and the domineering, and his majesty has his own imperial mind. The existence of the general is not only a threat to other countries! If Your Majesty really has such expectations for you, just imagine, if he really did kill his brother, can he let you go to the point of his current situation with peace of mind?"

"That's right... But Brother Yu couldn't think of anyone else!" The eldest prince fell into trouble, as if he was recalling the little things that Emperor Chu had given him, and wanted to see any clues from it. Unfortunately, he did not realize any deliberation or hypocrisy. Perhaps Emperor Chu was really heartbroken...

"I just said that Your Majesty is the beneficiary after all. If he is not the person behind the scenes, the black hand may only be someone who expects him to be the 95th. But it will be even more difficult for me to understand this aspect. Brother Xiang needs to investigate it himself."

"Well, my brother has pointed out the direction for my brother Yu, so naturally I should check these things by my brother Yu. It's not too early today. I heard that my brother didn't sleep well last night? Let's do it now. I have to rely on my brother for help in this internal injury."

"I should do my best."

When Gu Yue left the eldest prince's tent, he let out a deep breath.

At this time, the adjutant in the camp seemed to have come back to life and began to discuss with the eldest prince.

"Your Highness, this person is indeed not simple, but this matter is quite serious. It may be inappropriate to let him go easily."

"It's okay, he is a smart man and attaches great importance to his life. Such a person is the best at judging the situation. Isn't it very suspicious that he mentioned His Majesty and carefully analyzed His Majesty?"

"I will not understand it at the end."

"Because he is afraid of me, after all, it is easy to kill him with my strength and identity, especially in this Chu State camp, who can stop me? Eunuch Xu is my teacher no matter how he is counted. It has been a day or two that general and him. Only Qin Lie may stand up for him, but can he really ignore the Shangguan family? So Gu Yue is expressing his value to me at the right time, and deliberately mentioning His Majesty first, which means that he is really considering the case and has no worries. Only in this way can I not kill him directly after he treats me."

"So that's it. It seems that he can really use it and will keep his mouth shut?"

"That's right! He didn't think that I would suddenly pose this jade sword, but the calmness and wisdom he showed at such a critical moment is indeed not simple. If he was an enemy, he really couldn't keep it... Of course, it depends on whether Your Majesty has concealed something from me. In fact, I really hope that Your Majesty has nothing to do with this matter, otherwise how should I face him?"

"Yes, after all, it is a grace of raising many years, especially the unique medicinal bath has also given you, not your majesty's flesh and blood."

"Let me have a few drinks. The doubts I have been puzzled over the years have finally been answered. The jade sword left by your father risked his life will be used together to avenge them!"
