104. Change In The Imperial Palace
[BL] MY TOUGH HUSBAND BOOK 1
The white bones made them nervous.
A moment later, Han noticed something unusual. "Eh?"
Han Tingxuan hurriedly looked at him. "What's wrong?"
"I might have seen something. I'll go take a look." Han said.
Han Tingxuan tried to stop him, but he did not because Han was probably the one with the most powerful military arts among them and was immune to poison.
Han went straight to a plant. "It's it! Daddy told me about it."
Tian Yuexi saw two chief doctors of Imperial Hospital in the room, Shen Fangde, and Dongfang Li.
"Long live the emperor!" the two doctors quickly saluted when they saw Tian Yuexi.
Tian Yuexi waved his hand. "What's wrong with the prince?"
Shen Fangde and Dongfang Li looked at each other, and then Shen Fangde said, "Your majesty, my sincere apologies. According to the princeâs symptoms, it seems that he is having a cold. But it is much more dangerous than the cold. I am still trying to figure out what it is."
"Cold?" Tian Yuexi frowned. "Just the cold?"
"There should be other factors, but we can't find out what for now."
"Dongfang, what about you? What is your diagnose?â
Dongfang Li lowered his head slightly. "Your majesty, there are no obvious wounds on the prince's body. It seems something ill inside his body. But judging from his appearance alone, I am not sure what it is.â
Tian Yuexi said coldly. "Then work harder!"
Han Tingxuan hurriedly asked, "What is that?"
"Poisonous plant," Han said and crouched down to carefully pull the plant up.
"Didn't you say there was a poison? Why do you need it?" Han Tingxuan frowned.
" It is poisonous to you. But I can eat it." Han said.
He picked one of the leaves and ate it.
Han Tingxuan was speechless. Did he have to be this special?
Han put the thing in his pocket and said, "I don't know what its name is, but daddy said that this thing can make people hallucinate at some times. Moreover, ordinary people will be poisoned to death by touching it!"
"Itâs so powerful! Were these people killed by it?â
The white wolf and its pack had arrived at this time!
Mo Yanzhi immediately said, "Han, carry my husband on your back. We're going down the mountain quickly."
"Okay," Han nodded. He then carried Han Tingxuan on his back.
They ran down the mountain peak. But soon they found something confusing.
The wolves stopped there and did not go farther.
"What's going on?" Han Tingxuan looked up in surprise.
Han was not surprised at all. "Animals are sometimes very smart. These poisons can kill people, of course, they can also kill animals."
Han Tingxuan thought about it. This was very possible!
"Looks like there are many poisonous creatures along the way to the bottom of the mountain. We should be extra careful. Since the wolves stop chasing us, we can take our time."
Han nodded. "You are right. Follow me. Be careful."
The four people slowed down. After an hour, they were safe and sound thanks to Hanâs rich experience.
They found many other skeletons, including humans and animals.
Along the way, Han collected a lot of poisonous creatures, but he also left a lot behind. Because Han Tingxuan had said that if someone caught up to them, those poisonous creatures would hinder them.
And because of this, they set up traps with some of the skeletons at the foot of the mountain.
"We're almost at the foot of the mountain," Han said when he saw the foot of the mountain.
At this time, he was carrying Han Tingxuan on his back. "Han, are you tired? Put me down.â
"Not a good idea," Han shook his head. "There is still danger here. Maybe later."
Han Tingxuan had to accept it.
What they didn't know was that there was indeed a group of people chasing after them.
Tian Yushu did hide their tracks, but because of the rush, there were still signs!
What's more, this time the assassins were elites from Heavenly Extinction Sect.
Although those people had betrayed, they couldn't change the fact that they were elites!
Therefore, the elite assassins discovered their true routes and traced them down from the mountain.
Then, these people got caught by a lot of poisonous plants.
Immediately, three people died very soon.
"Poison! Everyone, be careful! "At this moment, the person who shouted was hallucinating.
He saw a huge python and used a knife to cut it.
He was just chopping at a group of weeds!
"What's wrong with you?" asked one person.
Then, the man turned around and hacked at his companion!
Thus, their companions hurriedly defended themselves. One thing led to another. These assassins started to fight against each other.
If not for such an incident, Han Tingxuan and others would have been caught up!
After they reached the foot of the mountain, Han Tingxuan got off from Han's back. Then, they continued on their journey. After half a day, they reached another mountain.
"Getting over this mountain and then walking for a while, we will have to cross a woods, our last dangerous area." Tian Yushu said. As the Regent of the Heavenly Empire, he was familiar with the places of the Heavenly Empire.
"Let's rest for a while," said Han Tingxuan. "Everyone gets some food too."
Mo Yanzhi said, "Okay, rest here."
There was still a little bit of dry food left, so Mo Yanzhi shared the fruits with others.
Then, They continued on their journey.
As there was no carriage, they took a small road. Besides, they used light skills most of the time. They were still very fast.
Soon, they arrived at the second mountain. Tian Yushu had never heard of any danger hidden in this mountain, but this mountain was much more difficult to climb than the previous one.
In the beginning, Han Tingxuan chose to climb on his own but it was not long before he was tired.
Then, Mo Yanzhi supported him to climb forward.
Han Tingxuan said ambitiously, "After we go back, I must exercise."
Mo Yanzhi smiled slightly. "Mm."
Han Tingxuan gritted his teeth and said, "Definitely!"
The mountain was very steep. It was already two hours later for everyone to climb to the top.
Along the way, they encountered beasts, but the beasts came as individuals, which was easy to get rid of.
In the evening, they chose to rest at the bottom of the mountain and had a barbecue for dinner. The beasts they killed were their dinner.
Luckily, they found a ditch on the mountain. Luckily the water in the ditch was clear, or the water source would be a problem!
The four people decided to sleep over the night here.
Aa they were Kungfu masters, they could always know right away once they were attacked. So they simply found a place to lie down.
In the middle of the night, a sword slid through the air. Tian Yushu was the first to jump up.
There weren't many people, but only eight.
However, all eight of them were from Heavenly Extinction Sect.
Only three of the assassins from the previous mountain survived. The five of these eight assassins caught up from another place. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people!
These five people were among the 16 people at the beginning. However, the other nine people had all died.
This time, the leader of these people had sent all top assassins to kill Tian Yushu and the other three. If he failed this time, the consequence would be devastating.
Of the eight people, Han alone fought against three, Tian Yushu also fought against three, and Mo Yanzhi fought against the rest two.
Because these were all top assassins, although their martial arts were not as good as the white-clothed man Mo Yanzhi had fought against at the night, they were not much worse!
Therefore, Mo Yanzhi couldn't spare his attention to protecting Han Tingxuan while fighting. He could only try to lure them away but he couldn't lure them too far because he was afraid that he would not be able to return in time to save Han Tingxuan.
Han's martial arts were indeed the highest, plus he was like a poison to others.
Hanâs soft sword was applied with poison which was collected on the mountain before.
Mo Yanzhi and Tian Yushu held swords in their hands. But their swords were snatched from the attacker, and there was poison on them.
Han killed two assassins in a few seconds. The third one was much more powerful, but it was only a matter of time for Han to kill him.
On the other hand, Tian Yushu was having a hard time dealing with the three assassins he fought against. After killing the last, Han went to help Tian Yushu.
Right at this moment, one of the three assassins charged towards Han Tingxuan by risking the danger of being stabbed in the back! Luckily, Mo Yanzhi had been prepared for this. He turned around and blocked the sword. He was so angry that he directly pierced the assassinâs chest.
A quarter of an hour later, the fight stopped, and all eight people were dead.
At this time, there was no need to leave one alive to interrogate.
After dealing with the eight people, Tian Yushu frowned. "It looks like they are desperate. We have to go back to the City of Capital as soon as possible. I'm afraid something bad is happening."
Han Tingxuan also thought of this and nodded. "Continue on the journey."
Then, the four people continued to rush. Fortunately, the danger of this mountain was greatly reduced. Otherwise, it would not be conducive to rush!
Tian Yushu and Han Tingxuan's worries had already happened in the City of Capital.
That morning, once Tian Yuexi heard that the prince was sick, he quickly went to Consort Yun after the morning meeting.
When he got there, Consort Yun came up with worries. "Your Majesty, you're here. The prince has been having fever since morning. We don't know what's wrong."
"Where's the doctor? Did you get any?" Tian Yuexi quickly asked.
"Yes, but⦠the doctor doesnât know the cause," Yun Rou looked worried.
Tian Yuexi trotted inside the room and Yun Rou immediately followed him. But no one noticed a flash of coldness in his eyes.
Shen Fangde and Dongfang Li discussed it and decided to use acupuncture.
Looking at his son who was suffering from severe fever, Tian Yuexi thought of someone. Haishan The Elderly!
The problem was that Haishan The Elderly was a mysterious man and Mo Yanzhi was not here, it was hard to say if he would come to the imperial palace to help him.
The most important thing was that he didn't know where he was!
With that thought, Tian Yuexi could only give it a try. He sent the secret guard to the Han residence to see if Haishan The Elderly was around. If he was there, perhaps give it a try to get him to the imperial palace.
Tian Yuexi had a great belief in the old man's medical skills.
The secret guard accepted the order and hurriedly left.
Shen Fangde and Dongfang Li had started applying acupunctureâ¦
