Chapter 193 Letting Go? Impossible
Chapter 193 Letting Go? Impossible
"I'm sorry for making my wife worry, but I won't do that again." Wen Shubai hugged her back and said with his eyes lowered.
After hugging him for a while, Gu Qingyuan let go of him. After all this trouble, she felt a little sleepy.
Afterwards, the two of them gradually fell asleep.
Meanwhile, after Chu Zhiyan returned, Qin Jia saw him in this state and quickly asked, "Didn't you go see her? How did you become like this?"
He had clearly become a spirit, yet he still wounded himself all over.
"We encountered some problems." Chu Zhiyan said, sounding a little tired.
Qin Jia put him back into the holy bottle and put the talisman paper on it again. "Your soul power is very weak now. If you continue to wander outside, it will probably dissipate."
His tone didn't sound like a joke. Chu Zhiyan in the Holy Bottle nodded and said, "I won't be going out again during this period of time."
"That's good. Although I don't know what happened to you in the past, I still want to say that you might as well let it go."
"Let it go? Impossible."
Qin Jia sighed helplessly and put the holy bottle away.
……
After dawn, Gu Qingyuan was still worried about Wen Shubai's condition. She not only asked the kitchen to prepare a decoction for him to reduce internal heat, but also cooked a pot of soup for him to replenish his qi and blood.
Looking at the two bowls in front of him, Wen Shubai felt his stomach bloating before he even started drinking.
He looked at Gu Qingyuan pitifully and asked, "Wife, can I not drink?"
"No." Gu Qingyuan refused firmly.
He really scared himself last night, but luckily the doctor said he was fine.
Helplessly, Wen Shubai first drank a few sips of the medicine, and then drank the soup to replenish qi and blood.
After drinking, he suddenly said, "My dear wife, I want to go to the palace."
"What are you going to the palace for?" she asked subconsciously.
"Well, I want to go to the palace to see my father."
In fact, he had some questions he wanted to ask, but he couldn't tell Gu Qingyuan yet.
"Okay, then I'll send someone to protect you there."
Gu Qingyuan still vividly remembered the last time Wen Shubai entered the palace and encountered several women who wanted to do something bad to him. She was worried about him.
Wen Shubai did not refuse. After making some preparations, he got on the carriage to the palace.
Zhaomei and Panmei clamored to escort him, so Gu Qingyuan let them follow behind the carriage, but in addition to the two of them, Gu Qingyuan also sent a few servants who knew martial arts to follow.
Yu Shui got on the carriage with Wen Shubai. Seeing Wen Shubai's appearance, he asked worriedly, "Master, what happened last night? Why do you look so bad?"
Hearing Yu Shui's words, Wen Shubai took out a bronze mirror and looked at it, wondering, "Is it really that bad?"
Yu Shui nodded, and saw her master took out rouge and patted it on her face a few times, and then applied lip balm. She looked much better.
"Did you and the young master have another fight?" Yu Shui asked cautiously.
The last time the master wanted to enter the palace was because the young master wanted to marry the son of the Qi family as his concubine.
Wen Shubai reached out and tapped Yu Shui on the forehead, "Don't talk nonsense."
Yu Shui felt pain, covered his head and let out an "Oh".
"Then what is the master going to do in the palace?"
"Of course something happened."
But he didn't tell Yu Shui what it was about.
The carriage drove safely all the way to the palace gate. After confirming his identity, Wen Shubai's carriage was let in.
Zhaomei and Panmei were left outside. They found a place at the palace gate and waited for Wen Shubai to come out.
After entering the palace, Wen Shubai did not go directly to find Liang Guijun, but first asked where the empress was.
"Seventh Prince, His Majesty is currently in the Imperial Study dealing with memorials. Would you like to go over later?"
Since the Queen Mother was busy, Wen Shubai did not disturb her but waited outside for a while.
In the imperial study, Eunuch Li said to the empress, "Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince is here."
The Queen put down her brush and asked, "When did he come here? Did he tell me why he came to see me?"
"This...slave doesn't know."
"Let him come."
The Queen's expression softened a little, and she had Wen Shubai brought in.
After seeing Wen Shubai, she asked, "Why did you come to see me today? Did that Gu Qingyuan bully you, and you want me to help you?"
"No."
He quickly denied it and spoke well of Gu Qingyuan.
"My wife is very kind to me. I did not come to the palace to complain today, but I have something to ask my mother."
The queen dismissed everyone in the room, leaving only her and Wen Shubai.
After confirming that there was no one else in the room, Wen Shubai said, "Does Queen Mother have a way to make the soul disappear?"
As long as that strange soul exists, he will feel uneasy.
"What... happened?"
"I saw a ghost at home and was afraid it might harm us, so I came to the palace to ask Mother."
Since Wen Shubai was born, he has been able to see things that ordinary people cannot see.
He was so frightened that he cried all night long while still in his cradle. Later, the queen invited someone to exorcise the evil spirit and found out that her little son could see things that ordinary people could not see.
"Ghost... Do you know what that ghost looks like?"
"It looks like a young man who wants to take over my body."
The Queen frowned immediately and asked him, "Are you injured?"
"I'm fine, I'm just worried that the ghost will appear again."
The Queen was silent for a moment, then said, "I previously forbade you from touching those forbidden techniques because I was afraid you would be affected by these ghosts. I even had your memory sealed. But now, you've seen a ghost again, and it wants to hurt you."
"Does the Queen Mother have any solution?"
The Queen shook her head and said helplessly, "I've only heard of it, but I haven't tried it yet. However, if the ghost comes to you again, you can find five colored minerals: cinnabar, realgar, alum, azurite, and lodestone, to suppress the ghost."
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
"I've only heard about it in books, and I don't know if it's useful."
Afterwards, the two chatted in the imperial study for a while until the princess came and knocked on the door. The empress waved her hand and said to Wen Shubai, "Go back."
Wen Shubai stood up and opened the door. The princess saw that it was her seventh brother and asked in surprise, "Why did you come to the palace?"
"Just ask the Queen Mother about some things."
"I see. However, I have something to tell the Queen Mother, so I'll go find her first."
Wen Shubai made way for her and walked out.
By the time he went out, it was already noon.
After thinking about it, he went to Liang Guijun's palace.
"You came to me, isn't it because I want to choose a husband for you?"
When the Queen saw the Princess, she guessed why she came to see her.
