Chapter 554: Emperor's Mind

Qiao Chu glanced at him, said nothing, and just told everyone to disperse.

The crowd dispersed one after another, but the youngest fifteenth prince came back hesitantly after leaving: "Master, does General Huyan need someone to take care of him?"

Qiao Chu looked at him with some curiosity, and then looked at the side door that had been newly opened for half a month: "Did you come here on your own? Or did your eighth brother and thirteenth brother ask you to come?"

The fifteenth prince stretched out his hand and scratched his head, a little embarrassed: "My eighth brother asked me to come...but I also want to come."

"How do you say that?" Qiao Chu was really surprised.

"When I was a kid, I heard my uncle talk about Marshal Huyan. He was... amazing!" When he said this, the fifteenth prince's eyes were bright, which was the expression he had when talking about his idol.

Qiao Chu suddenly realized: the fifteenth prince's uncle was also a general, and he should have been under the command of Marshal Huyan in the past.

"Master's wife, how are you doing with Grand Marshal Huyan now? Does he need anyone to take care of you? I can bring tea and water." The fifteenth prince looked at Qiao Chu expectantly.

Qiao Chu shook his head and told him to go back: "Go back and tell your eighth brother that Marshal Huyan's kung fu is not as good as before because he seriously injured his muscles and veins."

The fifteenth prince nodded: "My eldest uncle said that when a person becomes too old and can no longer fight, he is called a hero. But I feel that even if his kung fu is not as good as before, he is still a hero!"

Qiao Chu felt curious: "In your heart, if you are a hero once, you will always be a hero?"

The fifteenth prince shook his head and nodded: "My uncle said that Marshal Huyan has paid a lot for our Xuanwu Kingdom and has not done anything to disgrace the Xuanwu Kingdom... Then he will be a hero for the rest of his life!"

That's right... Qiao Chu could clearly feel Lao Huyan sighing silently in the room.

"Okay, I will tell your words to your hero. Go back..." I said before that my mind was not clear, but now it is not as good as before if I add more effort...

Come to think of it, there is no value or threat that can be exploited, right?!

I wonder if these people can let him go after knowing this news?!

The fifteenth prince left with some disappointment.

Qiao Chu turned around and entered the house.

With no outsiders present, Qiao Chu looked at the old man in front of him and sighed with emotion: "Do you know who did it?"

"..."

Lao Huyan, who was sitting by the bed, blinked and grinned, his eyes clear: "Chu Chu, I want to eat something delicious!"

"Okay, I'll make something delicious for you!"

Qiao Chu took out two silver barracudas from the Immortal Mansion space, steamed them and sent them to Lao Huyan to his room.

Seeing him wolfing down the food, Qiao Chu remained silent for a while.

When he came back from injury, Lao Huyan's hair, which had been completely black, had white hair again. However, Qiao Chu and Chen Qingshan went out for three days, and when they came back, most of his hair was already white!

Qiao Chu checked his body. Although his body was depleted due to excessive energy and blood, the steamed buns made with Lingquan water and wheat flour from the Xianfu space could replenish it a lot.

Gray hair has nothing to do with nutrition...

It can only be the mood.

He had gone through an inner struggle in the past three days. Qiao Chu didn't know it, but she knew it would never be easy.

After Lao Huyan finished his meal, Qiao Chu was not in a hurry to collect the plate, but said to Lao Huyan: "The people who are most important to take action are the eldest prince's people, you know that, right?"

Lao Huyan said nothing.

"There is another group of people who have also taken action." Qiao Chu said again.

Lao Huyan still didn't speak.

"The eldest prince's dead men judge that those are the prince's people."

"He didn't stop him." Lao Huyan suddenly said angrily.

"..." This time it was Qiao Chu's turn to remain silent.

"He" didn't stop it.

"He" only needs to not stop it, it is an attitude.

Although Lao Huyan survived in the end, Lao Huyan was heartbroken.

This country and this king that he once fought for finally abandoned him.

Not only did they abandon him, they also wanted him dead!

He no longer has any soldiers in his hands, but Your Majesty still wants him dead!

Do you have no choice but to die?!

Ever since he disappeared, the Huyan family has become a general who is not worthy of the name, but now they can't even tolerate his life...

Lao Huyan only felt sad.

The only solution to worries is good food!

Chu Chu promised to make delicious food for me!

I have never eaten this fish before!

Lao Huyan felt that given his current misery, he should eat at least three meals of silver barracuda! Three for each meal!

When Qiao Chu left the room, Lao Huyan suddenly said: "I will eat this fish tomorrow!"

Qiao Chu: "..."

What should I do if I suddenly feel that my heartache for him is a little unnecessary?

Qiao Chu told Lao Huyan: "Do you recognize an old man covered in white hair who is being carried by a mouse?"

Lao Huyan was stunned for a moment, and his eyes flashed suddenly: "Have you seen her?"

Qiao Chu nodded: "She said she wanted to meet you."



Early the next morning, Lao Huyan followed Huyanlie back to the General's Mansion in the Imperial City.

The students all saw Lao Huyan's gray hair and slightly stooped figure when he left.

Sure enough, the hero is getting old. After all, he is old...

The Eighth Prince's eyes flashed slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After Lao Huyan left, the Eighth Prince ran to find Qiao Chu.

"Master Wife, I have something to discuss with you." The Eighth Prince tried his best to look mature.

Qiao Chu looked at him curiously: "What's the matter? Tell me."

The Eighth Prince pointed to the room where Lao Huyan lived: "This time the attack on the old marshal was actually caused by me. They all thought that the old marshal would be on my side, so they wanted to kill the old marshal..."

Qiao Chu didn't say anything, didn't even have a superfluous expression, and looked at the Eighth Prince talking alone.

The Eighth Prince couldn't speak anymore. He looked at Qiao Chu: You do have some expression!

Qiao Chu nodded slightly: "So?"

The Eighth Prince swallowed hard: "So I was thinking, how about I send someone to protect the old marshal?"

In this way, the old marshal's lineage can be completely tied to his own chariot.

Qiao Chu pursed his lips and smiled: "It's useless for you to tell me about this kind of thing..."

You're not here to protect me, why are you telling me this?

The Eighth Prince sneered: "Didn't I just want you to know what's going on and listen to your opinion?"

Qiao Chu waved his hand: "I have no objection."

The eighth prince felt unhappy, but it was reasonable, so he turned around and ordered people to go find Hu Yanlie.

A twelve-year-old child has already made preparations to seize the throne. He is really... ambitious!

Qiao Chu was unconvinced.

In the Immortal Mansion space, the thirteen teenage children who were rescued last time have all had their legs and feet healed by Qiao Chu.

When they saw Qiao Chu coming in, they gathered in a group and looked at Qiao Chu warily.

Facing a group of teenage dead soldiers, Qiao Chu also had a headache: "Can any of you come out and tell me how you got to that valley?"

The little dead soldiers looked at each other and looked at a thin, big-eyed child in the middle.

The first update is here!

There will be a second and third update later.
