Chapter 174

An old man on crutches came out of the tunnel in the room. His back was slightly stooped, and the hood covered him completely so that his face could not be seen clearly.

The Imperial Master took a few steps forward to support him and whispered, "My benefactor."

The visitor patted the Imperial Master's arm and asked him to help him sit on a chair in the room.

The Imperial Master did not dare to neglect, and slowly and steadily helped the visitor to sit on the chair. When he sat down, the visitor's body paused slightly, and the Imperial Master's arm brushed against the visitor's hood and slipped off.

What was revealed was a slender face. Looking carefully, Lin Mo looked somewhat similar to him.

When the Imperial Master saw the face of his benefactor, he was slightly stunned, but in an instant he raised his hand and put on the hood again for his benefactor.

I still remember the last time we talked about something in the small courtyard. My benefactor was not as old as he is now. Why did he not see him for just a short period of time...

"Thank you." A hoarse old voice came from under the hood, "The Imperial Preceptor is so urgent to send me a message, but is there any new news from Emperor Chen?"

After the imperial master heard this voice, he quickly came back to his senses and said, "Yes, yes, Emperor Chen's end may not be well."

Hearing these words, the hooded old man suddenly glanced at him, and then the Imperial Master continued, "Today, I went to the Qianlong Palace on the pretext of worrying about His Majesty's health. Although I was stopped at the door, there was nothing inside. But I heard all the noise."

"At that time, after the news of my request to see His Majesty came through, except for the voices of Quan Lu and the little eunuch, I never heard His Majesty's voice at all. I accidentally heard the sound of a tea cup breaking."

"The sound sounded like someone was kicked off the table, not thrown to the ground. If His Majesty is still in good health..."

The Imperial Master did not finish the rest of the words, but the hooded old man already understood.

The hooded old man paused for a moment and asked again, "No one can enter the Qianlong Hall now, and only Quan Lu is there to serve him?"

The Imperial Master was about to answer yes, but suddenly he recalled in his mind the way Gu Jinyu entered the palace today with a fake apology on his face. He gritted his teeth and said, "That's not the case. Your Majesty let that Gu Jinyu in."

The hooded old man looked towards him, raised his chin slightly and said, "So... I just didn't let you in?"

The Imperial Master shook his head, "Gu Jinyu is the only exception. Everyone else has been blocked outside. Concubine Wan Gui and Princess Ruyang are now locked up in the palace and cannot even enter or leave freely."

"What about the rest of the Wan family?"

Speaking of this, the Imperial Master frowned slightly and said, "A few days ago, the servants of the Wan family who went to the North seemed to have suddenly come back, and I don't know what news they brought back. Wan Youde went to the North overnight."

"Northern Territory?" The hooded old man's voice rose slightly, "It seems like something happened to the legitimate son of the Wan family, right?"

"That's what I guessed. It's just that the people sent to the northern border haven't come back with the news." The national master responded in a low voice, "Although this earthquake occurred in the Black Mountains, it still affected the towns in the northern border. Some The village seems to be gone.”

"Message delivery is not as fast as before. I'm afraid we have to wait a little longer."

This time, the hooded old man didn't say anything. After a long while, he sighed deeply and said, "This earthquake comes at a really bad time... I'm afraid that Wanjia really has no chance to get up now."

This time, the Imperial Master did not answer, but just lowered his head quietly.

After a moment of pause, the old hoarse voice continued, "Although now is not the best time for that child to appear... But if the current situation continues, there is no telling when Da Chen will be in chaos."

The Imperial Master raised his head and glanced at the hooded old man. At some point, the hood fell down slightly, revealing the old man's gloomy expression.

The hooded old man patted the armrest of the chair gently and said calmly, "We can't wait any longer, let's do it."

Before the Imperial Master could answer, another slight noise suddenly came from the tunnel.

The hooded old man suddenly looked at the tunnel entrance under the bed board. The Imperial Master had already stood up and rushed towards the tunnel entrance, shouting sternly, "Who? Who is there?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Imperial Master had already raised his hand to grab a shivering man covering his face and pulled him out of the tunnel. The moment the hooded old man saw him, his eyes suddenly opened slightly and he subconsciously murmured, " Mo'er?"

The man covering his face stiffened slightly when he heard this call, but he still didn't make a sound or put down his hand.

The hooded old man walked over slowly on crutches, but this time he called out in a serious and affirmative voice, "Lin Mo, why are you here?"

As he spoke, the hooded old man glanced at the Imperial Master. The Imperial Master turned to look at the man who was still covering his face and slowly let go of his hand.

There was no other sound in the room for a long time.

The hooded old man pushed the ground heavily with his cane. With this sound, the man's body stiffened again. Finally, he reluctantly slowly lowered his hand and looked up at the hooded old man.

The two looked at each other for a long time, then Lin Mo lowered his head and called out in a low voice, "Grandpa."

When the Imperial Master heard this statement, he raised his eyebrows slightly. Old Mrs. Lin waved his hand towards him, and after telling him a few things in his ear, he said lightly, "In this case, you can go back first, I will I still have a few words to say with my grandson.”

Seeing this, the Imperial Master no longer stayed for a long time. After bowing, he got on the carriage from the small yard and left.

The driver carefully looked around before driving the carriage onto the main road.

After driving for a while, the Imperial Master, who was leaning on the carriage with his eyes closed and concentrating, suddenly heard the carriage driver letting out a soft groan. He frowned lightly and asked casually, "What's wrong?"

The coachman did not answer immediately. Just when the Imperial Master was about to close his eyes and rest for a while, he heard the coachman say hesitantly, "Sir, I seem to have seen the figure of Taoist Wufang."

As soon as he said this, the Imperial Master's eyes suddenly widened. He suddenly opened the curtain and looked outside and said, "Where is it?"

The coachman pulled the reins slightly and raised his hand to point towards a corner. The Imperial Master followed the coachman's hand and saw a piece of Taoist Wu Fang's clothes brushing against the wall and quickly disappearing around the corner.

...It's really her!

Even if this back turned into ashes, there was no way he could admit his mistake!

But...why did she suddenly start moving?
Speaking of which, she had been silent for a long time, so that his attention had recently been on Gu Jinyu.

The old man said that if the child is quiet, he must be acting like a monster.

From the moment this little junior sister entered the school, the master left her entirely to his care. If he hadn't pooped and urinated on her, he would have grown her up...

At this time, the coachman's voice brought back the Imperial Master's thoughts, "Sir, do we need to send someone to follow Taoist Wu Fang?"

The Imperial Master was silent for a long time, then lowered the curtain and sat back in the carriage and said calmly, "Don't worry about her now. Just keep an eye on the Queen Mother and don't let her cause trouble."

The Imperial Master paused for a breath, and then his voice sounded again, "Hurry up, that child must be sent to the palace as soon as possible."

After hearing this, the driver hurriedly responded, shook the reins, and urged the horse to speed up.

 Thank you for the recommendation votes from yesterday’s snuggles on the right shoulder, Dionysus111, Wu Zi Tian Wu Zi Ku, Li Li 653, Xiao Gan Qian Acridine, and Xu Fa Fa Fa Fa~
