Zu An said coldly: "Master Zhao, think twice, it is better not to know some things."
Zhao Yuan's expression changed slightly. He has been working in the palace all year round. He naturally knows that there are many secrets in the royal family that cannot be known to outsiders. It is not a joke that the more you know, the more dangerous they are.
However, he looked at Zu An and hesitated for a moment, thinking that he was probably deceiving him, so he smiled and said: "Master Zu, you are serious, I am just doing my job, and I have not received any relevant orders. Will take things out to perform tasks and so on."
Zu An's face looked a little ugly: "Are you saying that I am lying to you?"
Zhao Yuan smiled slightly: "Master Zu, what are you talking about? You are also the General of the Imperial Army. You should be aware of the responsibilities of us Forbidden Army generals. It would be better to check on everyone so that we can communicate better."
Zu An looked at him coldly. In fact, Concubine Bai was wearing Aunt Ping's clothes. In the eyes of everyone for a short period of time, she still looked like Aunt Ping, so she was not afraid of his inspection.
It's just that when the time comes, it will be necessary to explain Grandma Ping's body and it will take a lot of time and effort. After a long delay, the effect of the incomplete wardrobe will be gone.
Moreover, the other party has clearly made things difficult for him, and there are so many soldiers watching. If he gives in, the entire Yulin Army will not be able to hold its head high in the future, and it will be difficult for him to start work in the palace in the future.
"What if I don't show it?" Zu An said with a straight face and refused directly.
Zhao Yuan's expression turned cold: "Then don't blame me for offending you."
As soon as he said these words, the soldiers around him drew their swords and surrounded Zu An, and the war was about to break out.
Zu'an has never seen any big storms these days, so he naturally doesn't take these people seriously. He is planning to rush over directly. After Concubine Bai is transported out, even if the evidence has been eliminated, it will be no problem to explain to the emperor casually.
At this moment, a high-pitched cough came from not far away: "What are you doing?"
"It turns out to be Eunuch Wen." Zhao Yuan saw the other party's expression and showed a bit of respect. "General, I just did a routine inspection here, but Mr. Zu refused to let me go, so that my brothers became suspicious..."
He described what had just happened with added detail, and anyone who listened would think that there was something wrong with Zu An.
Eunuch Wen glanced at Zu An, and his eyes fell on the box in his hand.
Zu An keenly felt a force of energy covering the box, and thought that it was lucky that Concubine Bai had taken the fake death pill before.
Eunuch Wen obviously mistakenly thought that it was the body of Aunt Ping. He thought that this guy was pretty fast in doing things, but he almost got into trouble when he had a conflict with Zhao Yuan.
He cleared his throat and then said slowly: "The emperor did send Mr. Zu out to do something, but we forgot to tell General Zhao."
Zhao Yuan's expression changed and he immediately put on a smile: "It turns out that the emperor has an assignment. Why didn't Master Zu tell me earlier? It's all a misunderstanding."
Zu An looked at him acting coldly: "I just said it, but you have to shout that you don't believe it."
Zhao Yuan's smile froze on his face. What I just said was just for everyone to find a place to say casually, why don't you act according to common sense?
Zu An ignored him and said a few words to Eunuch Wen before leaving directly.
Zhao Yuan looked at his back with a gloomy expression.
Let's say that Zu An and Concubine Bai left the emperor's army for hundreds of miles before they stopped, found a secluded forest, and released Concubine Bai from the box.
She was still "twisted" into a ball. I don't know if it was because of the fake death pill, but her egg-white cheeks became increasingly pale, but paired with her beautiful face, she looked even more pitiful.
Zu An was suddenly stunned because Ji Xiaoxi gave him the fake death pill, but did not tell him how to use it. He didn't even know how long it would take to wake up after taking the medicine.
If it takes a few days, how can I have so much time to stay here?
However, now that he has advanced in cultivation and knowledge, he knows the general principle of this fake death pill, so he uses his energy to help push the palace and activate blood circulation, stimulating her to wake up early.
I was originally worried that she would be uncomfortable curled up like this, so I tried to lay her body flat, but after trying to break it several times, I found that her hands and feet were extremely tightly intertwined. If the strength was weak, she would not move at all. If the strength was strong, I was afraid of breaking her to pieces. , so I didn’t dare to be abrupt anymore, and planned to wait until she woke up.
Just like this, after a while, under the infusion of his strong and strong vitality, Concubine Bai's pale skin gradually gained a touch of blood, and then her stopped heartbeat gradually became weaker. It continued for a while, and she could hear the gentle sound. The sound of breathing.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and with a squeaking sound, Concubine Bai finally woke up.
Zu An breathed a sigh of relief: "Are you awake?"
Concubine Bai seemed to have faked her death, her head was still a little dizzy, she just stared blankly at the man in front of her, not knowing what she was thinking, and she was obsessed for a moment.
Zu An was startled and hurriedly waved his hand in front of her to test, fearing that the fake death pill would turn her into a vegetable.
Concubine Bai finally came to her senses and said with some embarrassment: "I'm fine. I just woke up a little confused."
She wanted to get up, but was shocked to find that she was still entangled in that special yoga posture, so she embarrassedly asked: "Can you help me, I can't untie it now."
If she were in a normal state, she would be fine, but she had the emperor's special restrictions on her body, and after taking the Suspended Death Pill for so long, her body was indeed much stiffer.
Seeing her "awkward" look, Zu An couldn't help laughing, but he still untied her body bit by bit under her guidance.
During the whole process, he had to marvel at the softness of her limbs, and wondered how he could find an opportunity for her to teach this trick to his confidante.
Yun Jianyue and Qiu Honglei didn't have much of a problem. They were both from the Demon Cult. However, Yun Jianyue's temperament meant that she might not be willing to learn this kind of posture.
It's even more difficult for Yan Xuehen...
After recovering, Concubine Bai stood up and straightened her clothes, then bent her knees and saluted him: "Young Master, it is my grace to save my life..."
Halfway through, I thought of the joke the other party told me before, and I didn't know what to say for a while.
Zu An obviously thought of the same thing and coughed awkwardly: "Based on our relationship, these are out of the question. I believe that you will save me in a different place."
Feeling that he was deliberately comforting her, Concubine Bai felt warm in her heart, and at the same time she became naughty: "That's not necessarily true. Although we were friends before, we really wouldn't necessarily take such a big risk to save you."
Seeing Zu An's face stiffen, she chuckled: "But after this time, let alone saving the young master, I will do whatever the young master asks me to do with just one sentence."
Zu An looked strange, wondering if she was deliberately hinting something or was it unintentional? Women from the Demon Cult seem to be very good at this kind of verbal teasing.
He quickly put away his thoughts and asked: "What are your plans next? Are you going back to the Demon Cult?"
Concubine Bai shook her head slightly, and said with a somewhat lonely expression: "That place only treats me as a tool, what are you going to do when you go back..."
Halfway through, he realized something was wrong, and continued: "I plan to go back to the capital, and I want to see the child."
Zu An frowned and said: "It is too dangerous for you to return to the capital with your current status, and there are restrictions on you..."
Concubine Bai pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Don't worry, young master, I am naturally sensible and will not expose my identity and harm the young master. As for the restriction, it will naturally be slowly lifted after a period of time. After all, I am from a demon sect, plus the previous The pill I took gave me the power to protect myself in a short period of time."
Seeing that she had decided to leave, Zu An was reluctant to persuade her. He thought that as a mother, her love for her children seemed to outweigh all worries about danger.
After giving her some self-defense items, Zu An returned to the emperor's honor guard. After all, if he left without returning, it would easily arouse suspicion. He planned to say something here and then return to Zishan to meet Sister Yan and Yun. It's much better to be with my sister than to be with this moody emperor.
As a result, when they arrived at the emperor's luxurious and huge carriage, they found that all the prominent people in the court were there.
Seeing his arrival, everyone's expressions became particularly complicated.
Zu Anxin wondered what these people were doing, and his eyes were strange. After bowing to the emperor as usual, he originally planned to be among the ministers, but Zhao Hao sneered and said, "It's so hard for you to hide it from us, demon regent!"
