After a while, Si Wei left the bedroom, and Gu Yan was lying on the bed, his head hurting like a split.

He couldn't remember clearly what happened after last night, but he only vaguely remembered that Ye Zi seemed to mention Huaiyuan to him.As soon as the name came out, Gu Yan quickly understood the cause and effect. Ye Zi should have been to Biezhuang.

He should have also entered the secret room and saw what was inside.

Ye Zi didn't have those memories, he would never feel that the person in the painting was himself.

No wonder from that day on, he was often absent-minded, as if he was preoccupied.

Gu Yan's chest was full of blood, and blood was faintly visible in his eyes.

If this is the case, then what he did during this period of time is not affectionate to that person at all, but a sharp knife that is cold and biting to the bone, no different from Ling Chi.

Gu Yan closed his eyes, remembering the last words he said to Ye Zi yesterday.

"Who are you talking about... Is it me, or Huaiyuan?"

"You are Huaiyuan."

Gu Yan didn't dare to think about how uncomfortable Ye Zi, who had misunderstood him in the first place, would feel when he heard this.He probably thought that Gu Yan just regarded him as Huaiyuan's substitute.

How could he do this to him?

Ye Zi has been lingering for so long with those self-righteous sweet words, yet he is still blaming the other party for not being candid enough, blaming him for not speaking out what is on his mind.

How could he...

Gu Yan's mind was dizzy, thinking why he was still so unprogressive, and made him feel sad even though he swore to never hurt him again.At the same time, he thought that he couldn't let Ye Zi misunderstand like this any longer.

He had to tell the truth, even if Ye Zi blamed him after finding out and didn't believe him, he couldn't let that person continue to grieve.

Gu Yan's chest was so stuffy and painful, he was about to get up when he accidentally affected his abdominal injury.The severe pain caused a sweet taste in his throat, and finally Gu Yan couldn't help but tilt his head, coughing up a big mouthful of blood.

"My lord!" Qiu Tang was leading Pei Ge in, when she happened to see Gu Yan coughing up blood, and hurried forward.

Gu Yan's eyes were full of blood, he grabbed the hand of the person beside him indiscriminately, and said in a hoarse voice: "... Where is Azi?"

Qiutang's eyes were red with fright, and she hurriedly said: "The king and concubine have not returned yet, Dr. Pei is here, you should lie down first, and let Dr. Pei look at it for you."

Gu Yan was stunned for a moment, then asked softly, "He didn't come back?"

"Why didn't you come back?"

Gu Yan's eyes were red like blood, and his voice was hoarse: "Where did he go? He..."

Before Gu Yan finished speaking, Pei Ge who was behind Qiutang quickly stepped forward and tapped the acupuncture points on his shoulder twice.Gu Yan's body softened and he fell back on the bed.

Afterwards, Pei Ge turned his head to Qiutang and said, "Miss, go down first, I'm here."

Qiutang hesitated for a moment, answered "Yes", turned around and went out the door.

Pei Ge sat down by the bed and put his hand on Gu Yan's wrist.After a while, Pei Ge frowned and let go.He took out a few silver needles from the medicine box, and pricked a few acupuncture points on Gu Yan's arm.

After a while, Gu Yan woke up leisurely.

Pei Ge withdrew the needle and said, "My lord, how do you feel?"

Gu Yan's face was pale, but his expression had recovered, and he asked hoarsely, "What's wrong with me?"

Pei Ge thought about it, and replied: "Your injury is not a serious problem at first, but the sword hurt your vitality. You must calm your mind and calm down to recuperate. Don't think too deeply, otherwise your blood will attack your heart, I'm afraid..."

Gu Yan's head was still hurting, he frowned and said, "Doctor Pei, just say it straight."

Pei Ge lowered his eyes: "I told you earlier that you have taken that medicine for many years, and accumulated residual poison in your body. These residual poisons were suppressed in your body before, but now your vitality is seriously injured. It is the time when the disease takes advantage of the emptiness. "

Gu Yan said: "Can it still be cured?"

Pei Ge replied: "It can be cured, but it can't be cured."

Gu Yan asked, "What do you mean?"

Pei Ge truthfully said: "The medicine comes from my hands, and I know it well every time I use it. As long as you take the right medicine, although it takes some effort, it is not impossible to cure. But... my lord, forgive me if you continue to be so ill. Healed, emotionally sad and joyful, no matter how good the medicine is, there is nothing I can do."

Gu Yan smiled faintly: "I see, Doctor Pei will prescribe the medicine."

Pei Ge responded, and was about to turn his head to leave when Gu Yan suddenly said, "You saw Wangfei just now, how is he?"

Pei Ge hesitated and said: "Princess...she looks not in good spirits, she seems a little tired and haggard."

Gu Yan tightened his hands hanging by his side, and asked, enduring his headache, "Where did he go? Why didn't he come back with you?"

Pei Ge said: "He only asked me to come to the palace as soon as possible to see a doctor for you, but he didn't tell me where he was going."

Gu Yan said: "I see, Doctor Pei is here."

Pei Ge prescribed the medicine and instructed the servants of the palace to take some medicines before leaving the palace.After sending Pei Ge away, Gu Yan called Qiu Tang: "Send a few servants out to find the princess. If you can't find it in the city, go out of the city to look for it. Try not to disturb too many people."

Qiu Tang was startled when she heard the words: "Princess, he..."

Gu Yan didn't say much, just said: "Let's do it."

Qiutang obeyed the order and stepped back, Gu Yan leaned against the head of the bed and smiled wryly: "This idiot..."

After coming out of the medical hall, Ye Zi didn't go back to the palace, but walked aimlessly on the street.

When he first took human form, he really wanted to leave, but Gu Yan sent someone to lock him in the palace.After that, he promised Gu Yan to pretend to be the princess, and he stayed in the palace logically, never thinking about leaving again.

Later, he had the opportunity to leave, but he was reluctant to leave, and he didn't know where to go.

It turns out that without Gu Yan, he really has nowhere to go in this world.

Ye Zi didn't even know when she became so dependent on that person.Was it from his accommodating and gentle treatment of himself, or from his relentless protection of him in front of outsiders, or... from the ten years he took care of that grass.

Ten years ago, Ye Zi came to this world and became a plant that could not speak or walk.

When he first came, he was very scared.He even thought that if he was not in the palace, but in a remote mountain where the wind and rain were blowing, he might have been driven crazy by anxiety and loneliness.

During the most restless days, it was Gu Yan who was by his side every day, watering him and killing insects, and talking with him.It was he who made Ye Zi feel that he was still accompanied by someone and that he was not alone.

Since ten years ago, Gu Yan has been very kind to him.

It's just that he didn't understand anything at the time.

Ye Zi walked forward in a daze, and unknowingly walked out of the noisy street and out of the city gate.When he came back to his senses, he was already standing on the official road outside the city.

Ye Zi looked back in the direction of Chang'an, the city gate in the distance could not be seen clearly under the cover of green trees, he stood there in a daze, hesitating in his heart.

Is he really going to just leave like this?

The last time Gu Yan knew that he was imprisoned, he was so anxious and afraid. If he knew that he was gone, would that person fall ill again?

He was so sick when he was sick...

But so what if he doesn't leave, Gu Yan doesn't like him, even if that person can get some comfort from him now, sooner or later he will realize that they are not the same person.

What should he do then?

Will that person drive him out of the palace?Or, keep him, treat him as non-existent, and let him continue to be a fake Princess Rui.

Either way, Ye Zi couldn't stand it.

Ye Zi bit her lower lip tightly, unable to move forward for a long time.

He understands all this, but...he doesn't want to leave.

He was reluctant.

He couldn't ask for it, but he couldn't let it go.

Suddenly, a slightly old voice sounded behind Ye Zi: "Hey, young man, what are you doing here?"

Ye Zi turned his head, it was an old man with white beard and eyebrows.

The old man had a childlike face and white hair, and his Taoist robe was washed white, and he carried a burden that was also washed white on his back.Seeing Ye Zi looking towards him, she gave him a kind smile.

Ye Zi wiped his eyes, shook his head and said, "No, nothing."

The old man came forward, stroking his beard, and taught him a lesson: "Young people are young people, and they cry when they encounter small things. They have never seen the big world."

After being scolded for nothing, Ye Zi said patiently, "What's the matter with you?"

"Naturally there is something to do." The old man said confidently, "You are poor and wandering around, seeing that you have a lot of troubles, so I came here to explain one or two."

Ye Zi: "..."

Ye Zi said: "Thank you, but there is no need."

Ye Zi was about to leave, but was grabbed by the old man: "Hey, don't rush to leave. The poor Taoist sees that you and I are destined, and I can't bear to see you sad. If you talk to me about your worries, maybe you will be fine."

Ye Zi said helplessly, "It's really unnecessary."

"Use, of course." The old man said earnestly, "To tell the truth, Pindao is a Taoist immortal in Zhongnan Mountain. He came to Chang'an this time because he was entrusted by an old friend to come to Chang'an City to collect demons."

Ye Zi was taken aback: "Are you here to collect demons?"

The old man stroked his beard and said triumphantly, "Exactly."

"Then..." Did you know there was a monster standing in front of you?

Ye Zi was in a complicated mood, and swallowed the second half of the sentence.

This is probably the wandering Taoist priest who bluffs and deceives in the rumors.

The old man didn't notice it, and boasted cheekily: "Pindao is not only powerful in Daoism, but also willing to do good. He likes to solve problems and solve problems for young people who are at a loss like you. I don't need any reward from you. Just a meal, what do you think, young master?"

Ye Zi vaguely realized something, looked him up and down for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Have you eaten for a few days?"

The old man sighed: "It has been three days."

Ye Zi: "..."

At the inn outside the city, Ye Zi took a sip of tea, glanced at the old man who was feasting beside him, and pushed the teacup in front of him forward: "Eat slowly, be careful not to choke."

The old man didn't care to answer him, poured a cup of tea, and took a bun from the table.

The old man's name is Guang Xuzi, he claimed to have obtained the Tao from Zhongnan Mountain, practiced everywhere, and his reputation spread far and wide.Not long ago, he received a letter from a big man in Chang'an City, saying that there were monsters in Chang'an City, asking him to come and collect them.

But not long after he set off, he was robbed by a thief in a black shop, all his clothes were looted, and he couldn't even pay for the carriage.After several twists and turns, I arrived outside Chang'an City.

Ye Zi endured and endured, and in the end kindly didn't ask him why a master of Taoism couldn't shrink thousands of miles and fly in the sky.

It's really not easy to bluff and deceive at a young age, so don't expose it.

Guang Xuzi was full, Ye Zi was about to say goodbye to him, but was held back by that man again.Guang Xuzi smiled and said: "Young Master Ye won't let the poor Taoist solve your problems for you, and the poor Taoist can't eat for nothing. Where is the young master Ye's house? When the poor Taoist goes to Chang'an to collect the demons and gets the reward, he will come to the door to thank you and return the money to you." you."

Ye Zi shook his head, his eyes darkened: "No need, I... I don't have a home."

Guang Xuzi thought it was just an excuse, and said in relief: "Why don't you have a home, young master Ye, don't be polite to me. To be honest, the person who asked the poor Taoist to catch the demon is the eldest son of the current protector of the country. This matter has to be done It’s done, and rewards are indispensable.”

Ye Zi was startled: "Who are you talking about?"

Guang Xuzi smiled and said, "Wen Yi, little general Wen."
