Chapter 164 I dare not deceive the emperor
Eunuch Xu's knee slammed heavily on the ground, raising a cloud of dust, but he felt no pain at all.
At this moment, his eyes were focused only on Zhao Haoxuan. With tears in his eyes, he said, "Your Highness, we have finally found you! For all these days, there has been no news from you, and your life or death is uncertain. The Emperor has been unable to eat or drink all day, and is deeply worried about your safety!"
After he finished speaking, tears flickered in his deep eyes, just like the twinkling stars in the night sky, which made people feel pity.
Zhao Haoxuan, who was standing by, was also touched when he saw this scene. He hurried forward and helped Eunuch Xu up.
He asked with concern, "Father-in-law, please get up quickly. You must have traveled all the way here. I wonder how you found this place?"
After Eunuch Xu stood firmly, he took a deep breath and then, in a slightly hoarse voice, briefly recounted his experience of searching for Zhao Haoxuan in recent days.
After saying this, Eunuch Xu looked around. When he saw so many people gathered on the mountain, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Then he turned to look at Zhang Haoxuan and asked curiously, "Your Highness, are these people willing to follow you?"
Zhao Haoxuan nodded slightly and replied softly, "That's right, eunuch. They are all loyal to me and are willing to serve me to the hilt."
Hearing this, Eunuch Xu nodded with satisfaction.
He slowly spoke, "Well, Your Highness, this is a brilliant move. As the crown prince of a country, you should have your own powerful forces. Only in this way can you ensure the stability of the country and the well-being of the people!"
After a brief pause, Eunuch Xu looked at Zhao Haoxuan eagerly and continued, "Your Highness, I have found you now. I wonder if you would be willing to return to the palace with me? The Emperor misses you day and night!"
"Father-in-law, can you please not tell anyone that you have found me?" Zhao Haoxuan asked sincerely.
Eunuch Xu frowned slightly, and after a moment's contemplation, he slowly spoke, "Your Highness, the Emperor misses you so much that I dare not deceive the Emperor in the slightest."
However, just as he finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something and continued, "But... Your Highness, how did you end up in such a remote place like Xie Village?"
Hearing this, Zhao Haoxuan couldn't help but sigh, and then began to recount the hardships and tribulations he had experienced since escaping from the palace.
He recounted in detail the dangers he encountered along the way, and his voice trembled slightly when he was moved.
Eunuch Xu listened quietly. As Zhao Haoxuan narrated, his expression was sometimes nervous, sometimes surprised, and sometimes angry.
When Eunuch Xu heard Zhao Haoxuan mention Prince Yu, he was so angry that he slammed the table and shouted angrily: "This Prince Yu is so audacious! How dare he treat His Royal Highness the Crown Prince like this? Your Highness, you have suffered!"
After saying this, he slowly knelt down towards Wang Xinyao with a solemn expression, and performed a standard kneeling ceremony with an extremely respectful attitude.
He shouted loudly, "Thank you, Miss Wang, for saving His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. If it weren't for your help, the consequences would have been disastrous!"
Seeing this, Wang Xinyao quickly said, "Please stand up, eunuch. There's really no need to be so polite! This is just a simple favor, and Brother Zhao has saved me many times before."
Eunuch Xu stood up, but his expression remained firm, and he looked at Zhao Haoxuan earnestly.
He persuaded, "Your Highness, please return to the palace with me! Only by returning to the palace can the Emperor provide you with better and more abundant resources to help you grow rapidly!"
However, Zhao Haoxuan remained unmoved, still firmly shaking his head, and responded: "Eunuch, I don't plan to return to the palace yet."
Hearing this, Eunuch Xu couldn't help but show anxiety on his face, and continued to advise earnestly: "Your Highness, please do not act on impulse. After returning to the palace, you will not only have access to the best training resources, but I can also personally guide you in your practice."
At this moment, Zhao Haoxuan's eyes suddenly focused, and the aura around him suddenly burst out, and an extremely powerful pressure swept around him in an instant.
He said loudly, "Father, to be honest, I have already broken through to the fifth level of the Martial King realm. My strength has reached a new level! Moreover, I have no shortage of any resources needed for cultivation."
After saying this, the majestic power surged like a tide, making people look sideways.
In recent days, Zhao Haoxuan has been concentrating on cultivation. With his extraordinary talent and unremitting efforts, he finally succeeded in advancing to two small realms.
He took a deep breath and continued, "Father-in-law, you know very well that back then, my cultivation level was only that of an eighth-rank martial artist. It only took me two short years to reach my current level!"
After hearing this, Eunuch Xu's face was filled with astonishment.
In the past, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's martial arts were taught by Prince Yu himself, so it was not convenient for him to intervene.
He had always felt that the reason why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's cultivation progress was not outstanding was probably due to his own mediocre qualifications.
However, at this moment, when he learned that there were so many complicated and tangled conspiracies hidden behind this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
It seems that the current emperor has greatly underestimated the scheming and ruthlessness of Prince Yu!
Just as Eunuch Xu hadn't recovered from his shock, Zhao Haoxuan couldn't wait to continue, "Eunuch, Xinyao is already a third-rank alchemist!"
Originally, Eunuch Xu could still barely accept the fact that Zhao Haoxuan's cultivation level improved so rapidly.
However, when he heard that Xinyao had been promoted to a third-grade alchemist, even with the calmness that Eunuch Xu had cultivated over the years, he could no longer remain calm.
After all, becoming a third-grade alchemist is not an achievement that anyone can easily achieve!
He stared at Wang Xinyao in front of him with his eyes wide open in disbelief, his mouth slightly open, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.
He stammered, "Ms. Wang... Miss Wang, you are so young? Are you really a third-grade alchemist?"
Wang Xinyao smiled slightly and replied crisply, "To answer your question, it is indeed true. A few days ago, I was lucky enough to successfully refine ten pills!"
After saying that, she reached into her bosom and took out a pill that emitted a faint fragrance.
Eunuch Xu followed silently all the way, and he was completely unaware. It seemed that Eunuch Xu must be a cultivator with unique skills. Looking at his ability to hide his whereabouts, his cultivation must be unfathomable!
