But it doesn't stop there.

Xu Shi was so deeply impressed by what Xu Changan said in the past about war and vegetative people, so that after so long, Chu Yu could never forget it.

Sitting down on the edge of the bed next to Xu Changan, Chu Yu unconsciously clenched her ten fingers tightly together, as if she could draw encouragement from it, until her fingertips turned white.He took a deep breath, and opened his mouth cautiously and anxiously: "My lord, do you still remember that you told me that we vegetable people have lived in their original form for a long time, and we might forget that we can become human?"

The back was drenched with cold sweat, sticking to the body like maggots on the tarsus, which was unbearable.Xu Changan was flustered and flustered, unable to concentrate on thinking about the reason why Chu Yu suddenly brought up this matter, so he just replied casually: "Remember."

"Then do you know that you have been sleeping during the day recently, and as soon as you fall asleep, you will return to your original shape? In the past, in Fengdu, although there were cases where you fell asleep and returned to your original form, it never lasted for half a cup of tea."

"But now you've been back to your original form for as long as you've been asleep."

"You mean," Xu Changan, who barely pressed the button in panic, slowly frowned, "I often change back to my original shape after falling asleep?"

As a vegetative person who can keep his original shape as much as possible, the few times Xu Changan turned back into a prickly pear are all related to Xue Yunshen.Now that he suddenly heard Chu Yu's words, he instinctively searched his memory twice, and found that he had no memory of changing back to his original form in his sleep.

It was as if turning back into a prickly pear was a completely unconscious reaction.

As soon as this realization surfaced, a chill swept over Xu Chang'an's body almost immediately, and he finally understood why Chu Yu was so frightened.

Chu Yu probably thought of what Xu Changan said that day based on the fact that Xu Changan slept in his original form for longer and longer.

In fact, Chu Yu's worries were not unfounded.

Vegetative people are born with two vital things, one is vitality, which is vital to life, almost equal to the length of life of vegetative people.The second is inner alchemy, inner alchemy is the only feature that distinguishes plants from vegetative people.

With inner alchemy, one can become a human being.And a vegetative person without inner alchemy can only be an ordinary plant in this life.

"I won't repeat the importance of vitality," Xu Shen's earnest exhortation still rings in my ears, "but the inner alchemy is also irreplaceable, Chang'an, you must protect your inner alchemy, and don't let it be taken away."

"If the inner alchemy is gone, even if your father is the chief minister of the court and wants to save you back into a human form, he will be helpless." Xu Shen added with a serious expression.

Xu Changan remembered that he asked a question about the inner alchemy that day: "Since the inner alchemy is so important, is there anything that can easily destroy our inner alchemy?"

When it was time, Xu Shen was sitting relaxedly on the Luohan bed, holding a cup of tea in his hand.Hearing the question, he glanced at his youngest son calmly, then put the tea bowl back on the small desk: yes. "

Xu Shen said: "Rongdancao is something that is said to be specially used to restrain vegetative people. The juice has a hypnotic effect, which can make vegetative people return to their original shape involuntarily in sleep. This is most obvious in women during pregnancy."

"If the juice of the Rongdan grass enters the pregnant woman's body, it only takes half a stick of incense to melt the inner alchemy of the pregnant woman silently. Once the inner alchemy melts, it is a surefire way to recover."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, your father frightened you." Seeing that the youngest son's face was really ugly, Liu Mian at the side hurriedly comforted him: "Rong Dancao was eradicated when he was in the previous court, and we will look for it again. Less than half of them are left in the world."

To be honest, Xu Changan didn't get the slightest comfort from his mother's words. He subconsciously felt that it was impossible for Rongdan grass with such vicious uses to be exterminated.

——There will definitely be people who are obsessed with profit and have no conscience, stealing a few plants by any means.

Right now, after half a year of talking with Xu Shen, Xu Changan's premonition has come true.

"It should be on yourself."

Thinking of this, Xu Changan shuddered uncontrollably.

People's hearts are so sinister, those who set out to murder Xu Chang'an did not intend to kill the child in his womb at all, but to kill him and the child in a clean and simple manner.

"The top priority is not to find out who is behind the scenes, but to clean up the things that may have the juice of melting red grass first."

Xu Changan silently advised himself to calm down. He gently stroked his slightly protruding belly, then closed his eyelids, hiding all the emotions inside.

"Chu Yu," Xu Changan opened his eyes after a while, and spoke in a sparse and normal tone, "Go and invite His Highness over, and just say that I have something to discuss with him."

"Yes!" Seeing that his son had returned to his original calmness, Chu Yu couldn't help but calm down, hurriedly responded, and went out to find someone.

After Chu Yu left, the peaceful silence returned to the bedroom. While sorting out his messy thoughts, Xu Changan slowed down and leaned his back against the head of the bed.

However, in less than a moment, Xu Changan, who had finished patrolling the layout of the room, suddenly climbed off the bed almost in a state of embarrassment.

On the other side, when Chu Yu arrived at the cabin through the crossbow window of Bei Lianzhu, Xue Yunshen was discussing the route with the helmsman of the "Gou Chen".

When it comes to Xue Yunshen, although he has an indescribably smug and narcissistic personality, he is actually not a careless person.On the contrary, he possesses the astonishing ability to observe, and he is clear about all the subtle changes of Xu Changan.

It stands to reason that Xu Changan's body had undergone such an obvious change, he couldn't have overlooked it to the point where even Chu Yu noticed him but still didn't notice it.

Unless something tripped him.

In order to return to the imperial city as soon as possible, and to avoid accidents on the way, Xue Yunshen asked General Gong to send a fast and defensive warship from Wucheng.

But now, the narrow and light boat has encountered the most difficult problem.

——Sea water change direction.

Recently, it has been a bleak time for the stars. The sea is foggy, and it is impossible to sail at night, so we can only drop anchor and stay where we are.However, the flowing sea water will take hundreds of catties of iron and wooden anchors away from their original positions, coupled with sea wind and other factors, often cause the Gouchen to deviate from the original route by [-] feet on the second day.

Therefore, even if he is a good and experienced sailor, it is impossible to completely avoid the taboo of sailing that everyone in the East China Sea talks about.

"In the past, before August, the seawater had changed direction. This year, for some reason, the seawater only started to flow in early August."

Thinking of the island not far away, the captain had a bitter expression on his face, so he hesitated to remind him: "Your Highness, according to the current flow speed of the sea, if you can't make it tonight, you must sail into the range of Suomei Island. "

Xue Yun knew very well what the captain was worried about.

Before his death, the late emperor, that is, Xue Yunshen's grandfather, had specially issued a Taoist decree, instructing his descendants not to enter Suomei Island casually, and not to disturb the purity of Suomei Island.

Stretching out his hand and rubbing the center of his brows, Xue Yunshen said: "Since it is really unavoidable, let's drive over directly, and my king and princess will burn incense sticks to Concubine Xiaoyi to express my condolences."

"As for the ban," Xue Yunshen paused for a moment, then continued, "Since it was broken as a last resort, I will explain it to my father in person later, so you don't need to worry about getting involved with Gou Chen."

After finishing speaking, before the lingering sound dissipated, Xue Yunshen heard Mu Mu's voice: "Why is Chu Yu here when you are free?"

It is rare to see the book boy of his own princess come out and walk around. Xue Yun was deeply concerned about Xu Changan. Before Chu Yu could answer, he asked first, "But Changan is not feeling well?"

When Xue Yunshen asked this question, he definitely did not expect that it was just a guess that was based on deep love and worrying about gains and losses, but in the end it turned out to be a nightmare that came true.

Chu Yu kept Xu Chang'an's teachings in mind, and didn't say much, only according to the confession that the princess was looking for the prince to discuss important matters.

Xue Yunshen's heart skipped a beat after hearing Chu Yu's explanation of the reason for his visit.He waved his hand slightly to the sailor, motioning the sailor to do what he said before, and then strode away.

Arriving at the bedroom, which has become much more comfortable after the renovation, Xue Yunshen immediately saw Xu Changan standing in front of the incomparably gorgeous Babu bed with disheveled hair, raising his head slightly, and looking at the delicate carvings on it.

Xue Yunshen breathed a sigh of relief almost imperceptibly, and his expression relaxed a little.He walked over, hugged Xu Changan from behind, then lowered his head naturally, rubbing his chin lightly on the black hair.

"You used to be sleeping at this hour, why are you in such good spirits today?"

Xue Yunshen judged the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and rather shamelessly thought of a reason for Xu Changan: "Could it be that I can't fall asleep thinking about it?"

Xu Changan leaned in Xue Yunshen's arms, stared at the delicately carved Chengchen on the Babu bed, and said softly: "Yes, I miss you. Thinking about the difficulty in sleeping and eating, and being unable to sleep with eyes closed, thinking about the fear of waking up , I will never see you again."

Hearing this, Xue Yun was stunned for a while.

When it comes to love talk, Xue Yunshen always takes the initiative to say it first, and then Xu Changan responds as appropriate.The two had been in love for so long, like today, Xue Yunshen hadn't said anything yet, and Xu Changan was the first to express his heart and soul, but this was the first time.

Just when Xue Yun was deeply joyful and thought that his princess had finally opened his mind, and no longer felt ashamed to say love words, Xu Changan said the second sentence: "Before my inner alchemy melts, I can still see you. Very satisfied."

Like a basin of piercingly cold water being poured over his head and face, Xue Yunshen's smiling expression burst apart in an instant.

Xue Yunshen couldn't tell how panicked he was when he heard the words Neidan Melting, he suddenly turned Xu Changan in his arms, the smile on his brows hadn't dissipated, but the hostility had already come up : "What inner alchemy melts? Who wants to harm you? You tell me, I will kill him now."

Every word and every sentence, Xue Yunshen spoke clearly.It seems that as long as Xu Changan utters a name now, he can rush out immediately and cut that person into pieces.

"Shh, don't be nervous." Xu Changan's arm was in severe pain from Xue Yunshen's pinch, so he could only pull his hand down with great effort, and slipped his fingers into the crevices of his fingers, and patted the back of his hand soothingly, trying to make him relax.

It's a pity that the quick action that has always been effective, this time it has no effect at all.

Xue Yunshen was like a ferocious beast with its reversed scales passive, the blue veins on his forehead and neck showed ferocious marks, and even the tear mole under his eyes was swept away from the former beauty, showing a sharp blood color.If Xu Chang'an hadn't seen that his chest didn't rise and fall, and tiptoed to help him breathe out, he might be able to hold his breath and suffocate himself to death.

Xu Changan was a little dumbfounded, at first he thought of Rong Dancao's panic, but it subsided a lot unknowingly.

"Fortunately, it was discovered early." Xu Changan stepped back a small half step, withdrawing from Xue Yun's thin lips.He raised his chin in the direction of the Babu bed, motioning to Xue Yunshen and said: "This bed has been smeared with the juice of melting red grass."

The reason why Xu Chang'an was able to track down Ba Bu's bed so quickly and get to the bottom of it was thanks to General Gong's wife.

When Xue Yunshen was transforming the Gouchen with great fanfare, Mrs. Gong even went on board to see it in person.

Seeing the spacious and empty bedroom, Mrs. Gong offered to give them all the furniture in the wing room where Xu Changan and Xue Yunshen lived. The reason is that old things are more comfortable to use than new ones.

Mrs. Gong's move was undoubtedly to make up for General Gong's wild words on the city wall, and to restore her husband's impression in His Highness Mo's heart, so as not to hinder her husband's official career.

Xu Chang'an and Xue Yunshen resolutely refused to accept it, and repeatedly emphasized that General Gong's loss was unintentional, and his wife should not worry about it.However, the more the two of them refused, the more Mrs. Gong panicked, and finally she even brought up the excuse that the varnish of the new furniture might affect the fetus in the womb.

This sentence can be said to be right in one sentence, the safety of Xu Chang'an and his son is the most important thing to Xue Yunshen at this moment.So His Majesty King Mo, who deeply felt that his words were justified, accepted Madam Gong's generous gift with a big wave of his hand.

Therefore, the furnishings in the bedroom on the ship are almost all old things in Fengdu, except for one thing.

That mahogany babu bed.

The canopy bed with the moon hole door cover that Mrs. Gong originally wanted to give as a gift was her dowry.It is impossible for Xu Changan and Xue Yunshen to accept such a precious thing.Fortunately, Mrs. Gong didn't force too much, she just ordered her close maid to inquire about the best carpenter in Fengdu, and then recommended it to Xue Yunshen.

After talking about the ins and outs, Xu Chang'an paused for a moment, and said carefully, "Only the carpenter and apprentice are the ones who handle this stepping bed. I'm afraid someone secretly bribed the carpenter and brushed the elixir juice on it."

In fact, no matter how you look at this matter, it has nothing to do with Mrs. Gong.It's just that without sufficient evidence, Xu Changan didn't want to rashly suspect Mrs. Gong's handwriting, and didn't want to associate the plump and smiling old lady with the four words "heart-hearted and vicious".

Besides, if Mrs. Gong ordered it, what good would it do her?She is an old woman who knows her destiny, her husband has a magnanimous official career, and her children and grandchildren have all taken up official positions based on their ability.

What Xu Changan really doubted in his heart were those royal family members in the imperial city.

"No way," Xue Yunshen seemed to have guessed what Xu Changan was thinking, he embraced Xu Changan again, and almost murmured, "It is impossible for my two elder brothers to be such people. They have always liked children, absolutely Wouldn't do something like this..."

That's what I said, but the seeds of Brother Yanqiang have already been planted.

It was the day when the moon was full in the Mid-Autumn Festival. At Hanshan Temple, thousands of miles away, a monk in cloth clothes opened the door and personally welcomed the eldest prince Wei Wang and the second prince Zhao Wang who came to deliver mooncakes.

"Uncle Huang, your place is the quietest in the entire imperial city." Wei Wang smiled.

"Since you like my place, you two might as well stay for a few days before leaving." The commoner monk took out a rough tea bowl, poured two bowls of tea and pushed it over.

"I can't help it," the second prince Zhao Wang hurriedly waved his hands, "The ancient green lamp Buddha is suitable for the emperor's uncle with a lofty mind. Ordinary people like me and the emperor's brother don't bother the emperor's Qingxiu."

After Zhao Wang finished speaking, he was about to leave, for fear that the monks in civilian clothes would forcibly keep the guests.King Wei was pulled by him, so he had to make a hasty accusation.

The unpretentious wooden door squeaked, and two bowls of tea were rippling on the table.Facing the backs of the two princes, the commoner monk raised his lips slightly.
