The nursing home is well guarded, and not even a mouse can get into the mansion. I let out my breath and let the wind float me into the courtyard. Then I paraded close to the ground and crawled into the courtyard where the patriarch lived.
To find out if he's dead, just check the room for the life energy blob.
There was no one alive in the room, but there were people standing around the yard in front of the house and behind the house.
They guard an 'empty' room closely.
Qi Si climbed onto the bed and sensed a humanoid object lying on the bed.
A maid came into the room carrying a tray. She spoke to the bed, then picked up the bowl on the tray, walked to the bed and drank the contents of the bowl herself.
She took out her handkerchief and wiped her mouth, put the empty bowl back on the tray, and carried it out the door.
When unsuspecting people saw the empty bowl, they thought the clan leader drank the medicine.
The breath touched the hem of the maid's skirt and followed her out of the yard.
She must have been instigated by someone to do this. I want to see who is the person who created the illusion that the patriarch is alive.
She didn't necessarily report this matter to her real master at that time, and I didn't do anything else except let Qi Si follow her.
On Yunzhou's side, I told him that the patriarch was probably dead. Someone had indeed blocked the news and was creating the illusion that the patriarch was still alive.
After all, the patriarch is his father, although the relationship between father and son has not been good over the years, and it has become increasingly tense, reaching the point of breaking up.
But I believe that Yun Zhou’s heart will not be completely calm.
Although their relationship between father and son is not so bad, it is not so bad that when I die, my son will applaud and applaud.
Yunzhou assigned new tasks to his subordinates, and after finishing the task, he sat in front of the window without saying anything for a long time.
I walked over and sat next to him, held his hand, and solemnly said: "I am also your relative."
Now he has neither father nor mother, and his brothers and sisters have little affection. In the future, I will be the only relative.
Tonight is quite special. In the past, we never talked about the past. He never told me what he was like as a child or what experiences he had as a teenager.
What I know is from Wan'er's words.
Wan'er is a bystander. She only knows some things, but she doesn't know Yun Zhou's true thoughts.
"I feel... like a rootless duckweed." He held my hand and sighed as he looked out the window at the night sky.
He had no parental love since he was a child, and the feeling of having no one to rely on gave him the feeling of floating in mid-air.
"When I was a child, I was afraid that I would fall down. But when I grow up, I feel that falling down will actually help me."
While he was suspended, he had been studying hard and performing well, hoping to be recognized by his father. At least he would not be abandoned or smashed to pieces.
After being poisoned and stupid, he finally fell to the ground, and the result was not as terrible as imagined.
"The luckiest thing for me is meeting you." His eyes were sincere.
"You're lucky~" I regret that the original person has a paralyzed face. It's too difficult to convey emotions through expressions. I can only find ways to use tone and intonation.
"Yes, so facing the future, I am not afraid or uneasy, because you are with me."
"Don't worry, I'm always here."
The night was very quiet, and occasionally a few dogs barked, far apart.
Yunzhou's subordinates reported that several uncles from the clan who had been out of town all year round had quietly set off and planned to return to Sun City.
Xixuan's grandfather is also secretly mobilizing people. He is the clan leader's favorite son. Many people believe that he will replace Xiqing, the eldest son, and take over the position of clan leader.
Whether it is a royal family or a wealthy family, the struggle for power and position has never been unusual. The winner is the king, the loser is the bandit, and you and I will die.
There is destined to be an ultimate contest between Xiqing and Xixuan.
Yunzhou only needs to secretly add fuel to the flames, but as long as he lives, his brothers will not completely lose their guard against him.
Especially after the news of my return to the island spread, Yunzhou was resurrected from a state of "heartbroken" with full health.
Their surveillance of Treasure Island became tighter again.
But they can only monitor the sea surface, and Yunzhou leaves the island from the bottom of the sea.
Treasure Island has a steep cliff on one side and a very hidden cave below.
The cave is connected to the sea, and the exit to the island is hidden in the mountain.
As long as there is a 'mouth', the biological shield of the white fur ball can cover it.
People from outside can't come in, but people from inside can go out.
Moreover, no outsiders have discovered this secret passage yet.
The cave can accommodate diving boats entering and exiting.
I built a dock in the cave, and no one outside Yunzhou Island noticed it at all.
There are spies planted by various forces all over the coast. Yunzhou and I have to change our appearance before going out.
Anyway, we are not the only people who use disguise. Professionals can only see that we have disguised ourselves, but cannot see the true face behind the mask.
"Just tell me what you need me to do, I'm professional." I raised my hand and made two gestures on my neck. Apart from treating people's diseases and detoxifying them, the longest thing I do is send people on their way.
"There is something you need to do." Yunzhou seemed to suddenly remember something, and pulled out a book from the bookshelf and handed it to me.
"You choose."
I took the book and opened it and found that it was a 'fashion magazine'.
"The wife of the city lord of Sun City has the same standard of clothing, food, housing and transportation as the queens of other countries. I know you don't like fancy clothes, so I specially asked someone to design a brand new dress style. You can choose from it. If you like it, I will call someone Did it all."
He pulled out two more albums, namely a jewelry magazine and a makeup magazine.
Three booklets were placed in front of me, and I suddenly felt like I was playing a face-changing game.
The booklet is loose-leaf, and each page can be removed and matched with the jewelry and makeup pages.
This shows that he is already confident about seizing power.
When the day came for him to become King of Arturo, it would not be very festive to wear all black.
And what he meant was that he wanted to get married to me in front of the tribe, and that the matchmaker would let the media know that he was getting married and advertise it widely.
After all, the conditions on Treasure Island were limited. He wanted to hold a large wedding in Sun City, and then return to Treasure Island to hold a small one, so that the residents of the island would also liven it up.
I am not born to worry about life. He is planning our wedding with great anticipation and enthusiasm. I must support, encourage and affirm him.
He told me to wait patiently and he would be responsible for the wedding.
What I can do is protect the people of Sun City.
Don't wait until our wedding day. There will be no one alive on the street.
I'm not exaggerating at all. The leader of the Xi clan passed away suddenly, and it wasn't just his sons and clan brothers who were preoccupied with his thoughts.
The forces that covet the Xi family's wealth, as well as family feuds, are also heading towards Sun City.
They wanted to lead their troops to force their way into the city and massacre it.
Let the territory of the Xi clan turn into a wasteland and a ghost town.
The army is so large that it is inconvenient for me to control it.
So he only mobilized part of his Qi threads, wrapped in poison and sneaked into the army camp.
While they were resting, the poison was mixed into the cooking ingredients.
This poison was given to me by the Demon Sect's Poison Hall. It is a powerful 'biological' weapon with a very low fatality rate, but a very high transmission rate.
Once you are infected, it will spread to ten or hundreds of people, and the onset is rapid. There is no antidote on the market, and you will not be able to recover without staying in bed for three months.
Get enough rest and drink enough fluids, and you can heal on your own without taking medicine.
I started on the way they came. Based on the onset time, they would never reach Sun City.
