Chapter 425
Old slave
It turned out that as early as the Heavenly Martial Arts Conference, Eunuch Xu saw that the situation on the eldest prince had changed. This was not only because he was most familiar with the eldest prince's internal injuries, but more importantly, as a warrior, he had come into contact with a field similar to "mental power" through his own way.
After some thought, and the eldest prince took the initiative to admit defeat and admitted that he had received Gu Yue's treatment, Eunuch Xu guessed seven or eight points.
"This boss is still worried about the incident back then..."
Eunuch Xu knew the knot of the eldest prince, so he naturally knew how smart Gu Yue was, so he observed it carefully and basically confirmed that Gu Yue had a hand on the eldest prince in the name of curing injuries, which was equivalent to a kind of "secret force", and the purpose was self-evident.
But he was very curious because Tang Wentian's attack on Yuwendu directly caused Yuwendu to be deposed. If Gu Yue had made the same preparation, wouldn't he be worried that deposing the eldest prince would cause an uproar?
So Eunuch Xu understood a key point, that is, Gu Yue was very confident that his own techniques could not only cover up the eyes, but also had a long-lasting effect. Most of them would not be triggered without his own urging.
I think it was precisely because Da Chu had no alchemist with a higher level than Gu Yue that he was fearless and never wanted to be caught by himself.
But Eunuch Xu did not point it out because he knew that Gu Yue was a talented person and an alchemist urgently needed by Da Chu, so as long as he could ensure that the eldest prince was not in trouble.
As for what he heard and knew, although it was all the past, he could probably guess it.
"It's my junior's erratic moment. Thanks to my father-in-law, you didn't point it out in person, otherwise it would be difficult to step down... I agree to this matter!"
Gu Yue does know how to advance and retreat, and he is different from the past, so he does not seem to need to use "secret force" to save his life. This is also one of the purposes specially proposed by Eunuch Xu at this time.
"The boss told you about the past, right? That's why you have to do something out of order to protect yourself? Otherwise, with your personality, you are not that kind of reckless person."
"You are as expected as a god. You can't hide this little trick of me. In fact, His Highness the Great Prince showed me a special sword, and there is a more special inscription engraved on this sword. According to my observations and the description of the Great Prince, I'm afraid that the biological father and son of the Great Prince were killed by the inscription on this sword."
Gu Yue concluded that Eunuch Xu must have known more inside information, otherwise he would not hit the mark. So you might as well tell them all to see if you can hear more useful news.
As for whether the incident that happened back then was related to Eunuch Xu? Although Gu Yue couldn't guarantee it, she also felt that it was probably impossible, because the eldest prince's father died at the hands of a close person. This was not like Eunuch Xu. Mostly, he was a woman...
"Is this true?...ah..."
"Actually, according to my younger generation, the things that happened back then were probably not done by Your Majesty, otherwise the first person Huangfu could not spare should be Your Majesty..."
"You really dare to say... Maybe you, a little guy, can be so unscrupulous..."
This time, Eunuch Xu did not say "Master Gu" again, but he looked like an old man's tone to a child. Because he mentioned Lord Huangfu, he couldn't help but remember what happened back then.
"I also discuss things with the facts. As the saying goes, the emperor has no relatives and the overlord is ruthless. Someone has done the things back then, so I couldn't help but think about it. After all, I only have one life for this young man. If I don't investigate the matter that affects His Majesty, it will not be pleasing."
"Ah... they are all ancestors. Old Man Huangfu's approach is too cruel. Our family hasn't spoken to him for many years. You must know that when we followed the late emperor together, we were like living and dying together!"
It turns out that these two people still have such past. Gu Yue had heard of what Lord Huangfu forced Emperor Chu to do back then. Prince Zheng's word "killing" heart was not fake at all. As for Queen Chu, she must have done it.
And this matter is definitely the one who cannot be avoided by Eunuch Xu.
With his loyalty to the Xiang family and his gratitude to the Xiang family's ancestors, I believe that when Emperor Chu's father passed away, he would have been quite guilty of himself, but he was unlikely to allow Lord Huangfu to do such a decisive thing.
But this is the fact. Even if Master Xu is unwilling to do so, he cannot use a pair of flesh palms to block the coalition forces of the Five Kingdoms, so things ended with his compromise, and the State of Chu also achieved real stability.
Although this is the result, Eunuch Xu also has his own temper. I am afraid he has broken up with Lord Huangfu since then, because his purpose has always been more inclined to protect the Xiang family rather than the Chu State.
"Does Lord Gu want to hear how helpless an old slave was in the past?"
How humble this is? Why is an existence beyond the great perfection of the heavenly level? Gu Yue couldn't help but feel moved.
"I would like to hear it carefully!"
Holding his fists and bowing, Gu Yue never vaguely when he should show respect.
Master Xu looked at the sky outside the house and fell into memories.
Emperor Chu's father was a powerful hero in the past, otherwise it would not be his turn to overthrow the previous dynasty and ask the emperor to abdicate. As followers, Eunuch Xu and Huangfu were totally devoted.
The return of these two peerless talents just shows that the late emperor of Chu is worth following.
Unfortunately, the treacherous heroes in troubled times are never alone, and the co-establishment of the six kingdoms has become a foregone conclusion.
At that time, the late Emperor of Chu, who was temporarily frustrated, was not discouraged at all. He took back all his tiger claws, and the accumulated strength did not stop for a day.
Until something big happened, even a generation of heroes could not withstand the fact that a white-haired man gave birth to a black-haired man.
"Xiaoxu... I'll leave the child to you... No matter who sits in this seat in the future, I'll ask you to take care of me..."
This last words at the end of death were not entrusted to the orphan, because the late emperor actually didn't think clearly who to hand them over to. After all, anyone could be the murderer who killed his eldest son!
If such a bastard who kills his brother handed over the throne to him, the Chu State would have no future...
However, the late emperor of Chu also gave Lord Huangfu a secret decree.
"This is impossible! How could the late emperor allow you to be so self-dedicated?! These are all descendants of the Xiang family!"
"And among them, there are also culprits who kill the prince and affect the former emperor! If there is any tolerance, the future of the Great Chu will be destroyed by the kindness of your and my women!"
Facing his most trusted brother, Eunuch Xu was hesitant and unable to bear it, but he knew that he could not resist because he could not bear this responsibility. Huangfu Dang, especially in the face of the subsequent turmoil and foreign invasion, he was the only one who could!
However, Eunuch Xu always blamed himself. He also attributed the death of the descendants of the Xiang family to his acquiescence. Although he had never had any contact with Huangfu Dang since then, this self-blame always lingered in his heart, especially the truth back then. If there was another person besides the eldest prince, it would be Eunuch Xu himself.
Of course, the special sword could not be hidden from Master Xu, but he also acquiesced, because even he himself could not see the clues. No one could check the entire Great Chu in detail, so he could directly poke it out and alert the enemy. The worst result was that the only clue was erased.
Of course, the Emperor of Chu did not hide his own personal information about the eldest prince. He did not even use the ancestral medicine for his children. Instead, he used it to help the eldest prince become the youngest heavenly perfection among the six kingdoms. This made Eunuch Xu feel that the matter back then should have nothing to do with Emperor Chu, let alone to hide it from Huangfu Dang's eyes.
But the more this happens, the less I want to give up, because he is afraid that if the banquet was not really done once and for all, what if the real mastermind behind the scenes did not attend...
Many years have passed, and the Great Chu has rarely been calm for so long, and Eunuch Xu always knew that Emperor Chu would not forget to recover the lost territory.
But the old man may not be able to see this day coming. What made him even more worried was whether the eldest prince would take a different approach, and his suspicion of Emperor Chu became deeper and deeper.
This is not what Eunuch Xu wants to see, because this is not what the late emperor wants to see.
However, he knew that his years of subtle influence would definitely not erase a son's determination to avenge his father's death. If someone deliberately guided or even used it, and he was already powerless at that time, what should he do?
The more anxious he was about the countdown of his life, the more he wanted to seize the time to find out the truth of that year. Unfortunately, there was no more progress, which made him more anxious.
Until a person like Gu Yue came out.
"Our family was petitioning to go to the Tianjie Martial Arts Conference at that time, just to see you more Lord Gu."
"Forehead……"
Gu Yue had no choice but to make so many inside stories, but he confirmed one thing, that was that his sharpness allowed Eunuch Xu to see a glimmer of opportunity.
"You can predict that you knew what happened back then because of the changes of the boss's child. Because you must have given him an answer and a very accurate answer, which confirmed his years of doubts. So our family knows that the sword is the key, but you still don't know who sent the sword to the deceased elder brother of His Majesty, right? The eldest son must not know, so our family must tell you that there are three people who are suspicious, all of whom are beautiful, and they all have a close relationship with His Majesty's elder brother."
After obtaining evidence from Eunuch Xu, Gu Yue felt that what she expected should be right, she was really a woman.
"You must have guessed that it was probably a woman, but you can't conclude that, after all, I know too little. As for the boss, the child must be more willing to believe that it was His Majesty's so-called. Now you can, but our family can't find out more, because these three women disappeared at the same time, and it's unclear whether they die or live. Are you willing to continue to investigate?"
"I'm willing!"
Seeing Gu Yue's firm eyes, Eunuch Xu comforted her. It seemed that she had waited for the most critical figure. Is it a pity to see him?
"Last Emperor! When I go to see you, I may be able to bring the truth..."
