Chapter 23 Blocking the Road
Dai Quan's face darkened and he said coldly
"Are you really not going?"

Jia Hu narrowed his eyes, and suddenly a small green snake appeared in his hand.

He raised his head and hissed at Dai Quan, eager to try.

"Do you want to die?" The familiar words rang in Dai Quan's ears again.

Li Liang could no longer hold on and slowly slid down the wall.

God, will the Third Master do anything to this eunuch? It's over. This is really the end.

Dai Quan's hair stood on end, and he couldn't help but take a step back.
Looking at the little snake, he felt his scalp tingling.
Suddenly thinking that this guy was the one who dared to attack his grandmother, he couldn't help but swallow hard.

"I'm leaving." Then he turned and left.

Jia Hu glanced at him and took Xiao Qing back.
If Dai Quan dared to say another word, he would really take action.

Li Liang heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this, but he felt sweaty all over and felt weak all over.
But he managed to get up.
"Third Master, I...I'll go see him off."

Jia Hu nodded and said nothing.

Li Liang ran out quickly and soon caught up with Dai Quan, thanking him.

"Eunuch, it's a good thing you just left, otherwise the Third Master would definitely take action."

Dai Quan's mouth twitched.
"Will he really do it?"

Li Liang nodded quickly.

"Yes, I definitely will," he said firmly.

Dai Quan's heart skipped a beat again, thinking that he had just been through the gates of hell.
I couldn't help but look back at the house with fear. The emperor was right. This guy really had a bad temper.

"Oh, I don't know how to report to the Emperor when I go back?" Dai Quan sighed and shook his head.

Li Liang shrank his neck and said cautiously

"Eunuch, the emperor won't chop off our heads, right?"

Dai Quan was stunned for a moment, then he looked at Li Liang with a smile.
"Probably not now." Before Li Liang could breathe a sigh of relief, he said playfully

"As for the future, that's hard to say." After saying that, he strode out of the yard.

Li Liangxin was a little scared when he heard this.
Since the Third Master has the ability to detoxify, why is he unwilling to do it for the Emperor?

He was very puzzled. If he could use this opportunity to get close to the emperor, wouldn't that be a great thing?

Should I try to persuade him? Then he shook his head helplessly.

If he really wants to persuade him, I'm afraid the Third Master will have to kill himself first.

In the palace, the emperor frowned as he looked at Dai Quan who had returned alone.
But he didn't say anything, just waiting for Dai Quan to explain.

"I am an incompetent old servant. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. Jia Hu is unwilling to come," Dai Quan knelt on the ground and told the truth.

"Huh? You don't want to come? You didn't tell him my identity?" The emperor was a little surprised and asked puzzled.

"The old slave said, he said... he didn't want to detoxify you, it's too much trouble," Dai Quan said stiffly.

The emperor opened his eyes wide, somewhat incredulous.
"He really said that?"

Seeing that the emperor didn't believe him, Dai Quan said
"Your Majesty, I really didn't lie. That's what he said."

The emperor's eyes flickered.
"Well, get up, I understand."

Dai Quan was stunned. Seeing that the emperor was not angry, he stood up with a puzzled look on his face.

"Your Majesty, do you want to issue an imperial decree?" Dai Quan asked cautiously.

The emperor's face changed, and he looked at Dai Quan fiercely.

"Do you want the whole city to know that I was poisoned? What if that person knew about it and killed Jia Hu? Idiot?"

"Plop!" Dai Quan knelt on the ground in panic.

"It is my fault for not considering it carefully. Your Majesty, please calm down. I am also worried about your health."

The Emperor gave Dai Quan a cold look and said, "Now I am more certain that he can really detoxify me."

Dai Quan was stunned, not knowing how the emperor was sure of this, but he didn't dare to ask, so he could only lower his head obediently.

"Do you think he will go to Jiulong Mountain again?" the emperor suddenly asked.

Dai Quan was stunned again. He didn't expect the emperor's thoughts to jump so much. His brain was working very fast.
"Yes." The emperor looked at Dai Quan in confusion.
"Oh, what do you say?"

Dai Quan was in high spirits and said quickly

"The Emperor, I went to see him today and found that he had many poisonous snakes and insects in his yard.
This shows that he likes these things very much. There were quite a lot of these things in the pond at Jiulong Mountain that day. He will definitely go there again."

The emperor's eyes flashed with a smile.

"Well, get up. You're not that stupid after all."

Dai Quan heaved a sigh of relief and said
"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Send someone to keep an eye on him. If he plans to go to Jiulong Mountain, report to me immediately." The retired emperor said with a serious expression.

Dai Quan hesitated for a moment and whispered

"Your Majesty, the man I sent to follow was discovered and killed by him today."

The emperor was stunned and nodded.

"Then just keep an eye on him outside Rongguo Mansion and don't get close to him again."

Dai Quan said quickly

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The night passed in a flash, and the other people in Rongguo Mansion didn't even notice that Dai Quan had been there.
One can imagine the current situation of Rongguo Mansion, which is completely defenseless against the outside world.

After eating, Jia Hu couldn't wait to take Li Liang out, and put several large cages in the carriage.

Jia Hu decided to bring back both the toad and the spider, as it would be a shame if they were not refined into Gu.

The carriage swayed out of the city, and the emperor knew immediately.

He didn't expect that Jia Hu would go to Jiulong Mountain so soon.

The carriage was still parked not far from the foot of the mountain, but Li Liang exclaimed

"Ah this."

Jia Hu, who was in the carriage, lifted the curtain and walked down. When he saw the situation at the foot of the mountain, he frowned slightly.

Because there was a luxurious carriage parked there, and a dozen guards were protecting the carriage.

It was Dai Quan who was standing outside the carriage. When he saw Jia Hu and the others, his eyes lit up and he immediately ran over.

Li Liang looked at Dai Quan, then at the carriage, and opened his mouth wide.

An incredible thought arose in my mind: Could the emperor be in the carriage?

"Young Master." Dai Quan looked much more respectful, obviously having been reprimanded by the retired emperor.

Jia Hu looked at him indifferently

"Have you forgotten what I said last night?"

Dai Quan nodded and bowed.

"I haven't forgotten, I haven't forgotten, it's just that the emperor wants to talk to you in person."

"I don't have time. I won't go." After saying that, he stopped looking at him, brushed past Dai Quan, and walked forward.

Li Liang lowered his head and followed Jia Hu closely.

He felt that only by following the Third Master would he be safer.

Dai Quan didn't expect Jia Hu to be so disrespectful and just leave like that.
He stood there in a daze, not knowing what to say.

Jia Hu walked to the front of the carriage, frowned, and walked around it to go up the mountain.

"Wait." The curtain suddenly opened.

The emperor was wearing a dragon robe today, and an aura of majesty emanated from him.

Jia Hu paused, frowned and turned his head.

There was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, he was really annoyed.
