Chapter 807 Phoenix Eye
Lou Qinghan was a little confused at first when Ye Wenyan mentioned the purple gemstone. After all, no one could remember what a purple gemstone was out of the blue. He thought about all the national treasures of Suyuan country, but he couldn't think of such a purple stone.
Later, it was Feng Zhaolian who gave him a hint: "Isn't there a purple stone inlaid on the king's dragon crown?"
Lou Qinghan suddenly remembered that, yes, the dragon crown of the king that has been passed down from generation to generation in Su Yuan, wasn't there a purple gem inlaid in the middle? And that gem was also praised by the high priest as the Eye of Su Yuan, saying that if that thing was inlaid in the dragon crown, it would ensure the prosperity of Su Yuan for at least three hundred years.
When he thought about this, he hesitated. Feng Zhaolian saw that he was hesitant like a woman, and he got angry at that time - "What's the matter, Lou Qinghan, you don't want to give it, right? If you don't want to give it, just say it directly, and we will leave now. Who do you think is willing to help you save your father and fight for the throne? There are a lot of things waiting for me to do at home. In the past, you guarded it tightly and I couldn't leave. Now that Ah Yan is here, you can see if I can leave. So hurry up and tell me straight, are you going to give it to me or not?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly cried "Ah", then grabbed Ye Wenyan and said, "Ah Yan, why are we wasting time talking to him! Since we all know where the stone is, just go get it! You have spiritual power, what are you afraid of?"
Ye Wenyan also thought this made sense, so he said to Lou Qinghan: "Xiao Lou, you don't have to worry about it. I will go get the stone myself, so you don't have to explain to Su Yuanren. Okay, you do your thing, we will go get the things now."
She said she was leaving and she really left, pulling Feng Zhaolian out of the house.
Lou Qinghan started crying again: "You two can't ignore me. If you ignore me, my father and I will both die. Can't I give you the stone? Since my father listens to Feng Zhaolian so much now, he will definitely give it to you." "Then what are you waiting for! Let's go!" Feng Zhaolian was an impatient person and left as soon as he said he would.
So the three of them left the brothel, listening to the girls in the brothel laughing and welcoming and seeing off guests. Feng Zhaolian even waved goodbye to them and said, "Wait, I will come to see you in two days! You all dress up beautifully and wait for my favor!"
Lou Qinghan was speechless for a while. Why did she always say the same thing every time she came, as if she really had that ability?
Lou Qinghan was doubting his life, and the secret guards on the roof of the brothel were also doubting their lives.
What the hell is going on? They lay on the roof and listened for a long time, but they didn't hear anything except the dirty talk between the brothel girl and the guests. They had clearly removed the tiles from the roof, and even saw the three people's mouths moving, but they didn't hear a single word clearly. How should they explain to their master when they get back?
One of them sighed, "I heard that all the masters in the Central Plains practice lip reading, which means that you can tell what the other person is saying just by looking at the mouth movement. It's a pity that we didn't learn it, otherwise we would have been able to know their conversation just now through lip reading."
Another said, "It's no use learning it, because they didn't say anything just now, they just kept counting. From one to one hundred, and then from one hundred back to one. Over and over again, it never changed, everyone was counting."
"What?" Several secret guards looked at him and someone asked, "How did you know?"
The man replied: "Because I have learned the lip reading you mentioned!"
In fact, what that person said was right. What they saw was Ye Wenyan and his group, who were indeed counting.
But Ye Wenyan had used a magic trick to block out the eyes and sound, so what they saw was not the real situation, and the sound was not clear at all. The only thing they could see clearly was when they came and when they left.
They didn't even see the scene where Feng Zhaolian pulled off Ye Wenyan's veil. When they returned to the palace, the eunuchs in the palace smiled flatteringly at Lou Qinghan, but there was a knife in their smiles. They asked him, "How many pots of wine did your Highness drink today?" After asking, they looked at Ye Wenyan and smiled, "This little girl looks pretty. If your Highness is interested, why not send someone to send her to your palace? What do you think?"
Lou Qinghan said, "She came to give Father a Phoenix Eye. We didn't know about it before and took it away without knowing what was going on. It was a mistake! Well, Eunuch Luo, go get the witch doctor who treated Father and prescribed medicine for me. I want to ask him in person how to use this Phoenix Eye."
Eunuch Luo glanced at Ye Wenyan, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, but he still replied: "Yes, I will go right away."
Lou Qinghan wanted to take people back to his Crown Prince's Palace, but immediately someone came up and said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Princess Zhaolian could move around freely, but the girl who delivered the Phoenix Eye could not, she had to follow us to the Witch Doctor's Office.
Lou Qinghan glanced at Ye Wenyan, and when he saw her nod slightly, he said, "Okay, it's up to you!"
After saying that, he pulled Feng Zhaolian and the two of them hurried away.
Feng Zhaolian couldn't stand the people in Su Yuan's palace the most. From the masters to the servants, she looked down on all of them, so she would say something bad about them whenever she got the chance.
For example, at this moment, she saw that there were a few eunuchs who belonged to the second prince, and they were looking at her and Lou Qinghan with anger. So she rolled her eyes, hugged Lou Qinghan's arm, and said with a smile: "Xiao Lou, you are much more beautiful than your second brother, and your figure is also taller. Your second brother is as ugly as a short melon. My royal cousin is also a man without great virtue. He actually wants to marry me to a short melon. How can I be happy? I would rather marry you than him!"
Lou Qinghan's heart shuddered, thinking, "Don't marry me. If you say you want to marry me, the guy in your family will skin me alive."
Feng Zhaolian didn't care what he was thinking. She just wanted to annoy the Second Prince and his gang. So she continued, "Oh, Xiaolou, there's something I've never figured out. You said your father is old now, but you can see that he was a tall man when he was young. Even now, he is taller than most men! Look at you, you are also a muscular man. Your brothers and sisters are all tall. Why is that short guy so short? Xiaolou, is there something wrong here? Or did he take after his mother?"
As Lou Qinghan listened, he seemed to understand what Feng Zhaolian was up to. He quickly said, "He didn't take after his mother, did he? That lady wasn't short either."
"That's not right! His parents are not short, so why is their son so short? Could he not be the king's biological son?"
Feng Zhaolian said this in a very loud voice, and everyone around him could hear it.
Especially the palace maids and imperial guards behind him, they heard it clearly.
At that time, some people were not happy with it. "How dare you! Witch, don't speak such evil words!"
Feng Zhaolian turned around and waved his fist at the man: "What's the matter? I'm going to tell you today, do you want to fight with me? Don't think that I have to be afraid of you when I come to Su Yuanguo. Even if my little arm can't twist Su Yuanguo's big leg, it's still easy for me to kill you. If you don't believe me, just try it, and see if I can kill you or not!"
The man was extremely angry, but he really couldn't do anything about Feng Zhaolian.
Others advised him, "That's enough. Princess Guiyue has this temper. We've suffered losses many times before. We'll get used to it. Let's go. Out of sight, out of mind. Otherwise, she'll say something more unpleasant and make us even angrier."
The group of people left cursing. Feng Zhaolian said to Lou Qinghan, "See? You can't be nice to them. If you're soft, they'll be hard. If you're hard, they'll be soft. So you have to be tough, okay?"
The last sentence, "Do you know?", was accompanied by a slap that landed on Lou Qinghan's back with a bang.
Lou Qinghan almost vomited because of her beating, so he had to nod to show that he understood.
At the Witch Doctor's Office, when Ye Wenyan arrived, he saw a group of people in black robes moving back and forth.
She thought, this might be the standard configuration of witch doctors in the country! It also reflects the word witch!
The person who prescribed the medicine for the king had been taken to the Prince's Palace. The person who received Ye Wenyan was an old lady. She was very old, with wrinkles all over her face, and looked to be over ninety years old.
Of course, no one on this continent can live past sixty, so the ninety-something was estimated by Ye Wenyan based on the degree of aging of the elderly in later generations. But it is true that the old lady is almost at the end of her life, and there is no sign of life in her.
"You have phoenix eyes?" the old lady asked Ye Wenyan, and then snorted coldly, "Tell me, why did you sneak into the palace?"
Ye Wenyan said: "Of course, I am sending Phoenix Eye to cure the emperor's illness."
"Nonsense!" The old lady snorted again, "There is no such thing as phoenix eyes in this world. I have lived for so long and have never heard of it."
A younger witch doctor nearby said, "Just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean it doesn't exist!"
Pah! The old lady slapped him and said, "I am the one who is in charge of the Witch Doctor Office now. How can you have a say?"
After that, he asked Ye Wenyan again: "Since you said there is a phoenix eye, where is that thing?"
Ye Wenyan smiled, hid her hands in her sleeves, and gently crushed a few petals. A strange bead that looked like an eye appeared in her palm. She stretched her hand forward, and the bead actually emitted some light, "This is the phoenix eye."
The entire Witch Doctor Department was shocked. Those who firmly believed that there was no such thing as a phoenix eye in the world all stared with wide eyes. And those who knew that the so-called phoenix eye was actually a lie made up by the Second Prince also stared with wide eyes. No matter what they thought, they all had the same question at this moment: There really is a phoenix eye in the world!
