"Your Highness."
"Your Highness."
The news of the prince's coma has been blocked in the past few days, but the prince's long absence has inevitably aroused suspicion. The officials of the East Palace, headed by the Qingyi scribe, have turned gray in a hurry, but they still do enough to go to the meeting hall to discuss matters every day. Today They still went to the meeting hall on time, but were surprised and happy to see the prince halfway!
Immediately afterwards, their hearts skipped a beat, and they lowered their heads and stood. The prince really looked menacing, as if he was on the verge of rage.
Prince Daqian's eyebrows were cold, soaked in the deep cold, as if he had just arrived and had not had time to change into boots and robes. He only wore trousers and an apricot yellow silk coat embroidered with four-clawed dragon patterns. The coat was tied loosely, and he could not move. You can still see the collarbone and the lean waist and abdomen that were inadvertently exposed. There seemed to be thunder lingering around her, and she was approaching with a strong momentum. The wind blew her disheveled black hair, and she was quiet and arrogant.
Ordinary people who behave like this will inevitably be gossiped about how they look decent with their shirts uncovered. However, the officials in the East Palace were so shocked that they could not even think about it. They almost lamented that their highness was so domineering and unparalleled even if he was not properly dressed.
Zhan Changfeng had a mermaid gauze covering her body, so she didn't care about how she was dressed. Yi Changsheng was gone, so she had no time to care about it. But when she thought of Yi Changsheng's attention to appearance, she regained her composure a little, raised her hand and walked away from The steward who hurried up picked up his robe and put it on his body, and his luck disappeared.
This time, not only the general manager was anxious, but also the officials in the East Palace were anxious. They all grabbed the general manager and asked, "What did your highness do?" "Did something happen?" "Who made your highness angry?"
"Oh, my lords, you better go and find His Highness!" The steward stamped his feet anxiously, "Yes, His Highness asked where a man named Yi Changsheng was when he woke up. You guys go and look for him!"
"Yi Changsheng, I've never heard of it."
"Is it from Mingtang?"
"Enemies from the Jianghu or those strange people?"
"Quickly ask General Jin Xiu to send troops to find him!"
The palace was in chaos all night. Early the next morning, the prince came back and locked himself in the palace for a whole day.
On the third day, the officials of the East Palace and the Yin of Prefecture Mu County were summoned as before to discuss matters.
Zhan Changfeng sat behind the desk with a rare serious attitude, listening to their reports with emotionless expression.
"Your Highness, the official letters from the past few days are already on your file."
"Your Highness, Ming Tang and his coalition forces retreated to Macang City. Ming Tang Prime Minister Xu Weixian seems to want to support Ning Shanhe, the younger brother of Ming Tang King Ning Qiwu, as king."
"Your Highness, do you want General Zhengxi to continue the attack?"
"Your Highness"
Zhan Changfeng made decisions one by one, with a hint of weariness hidden in the depths of his eyes as he glanced from these courtiers to the distant sky outside the palace.
The hundreds and thousands of years in the world are nothing. Even if the name lasts forever and changes the historical customs of a generation, if you can't catch what you want, what's the point.
"Your Highness!" Ling Hu came out with a heavy face, "The epidemic situation may change drastically."
"speak."
"In the past few days, the epidemic has spread rapidly, and the symptoms have become more and more serious. The patient's body is in a state of ulceration, and many prescriptions prepared by the temporary epidemic center have not worked."
Ling Hu carefully observed the prince's face. The expressionless look made him even more stressed. "A few days ago, two Taoist priests came to me and said that they had a cure, but they wanted to meet His Highness."
"Inform them to come in."
"Here."
The two people who came were the senior brothers of Qianqian Liu Yueran. Bai Qi Liaoyuan saluted, and Bai Qi spoke first, "Bai Qi, a poor Taoist, wants to talk to His Highness the Crown Prince alone."
The officials present did not have a good impression of the Taoist priest. They were all unhappy when they heard that he wanted to talk to His Highness alone. What if he made a surprise attack and caused His Highness to have trouble?
Zhan Changfeng ignored the objections and backed away from everyone, "What do you want to talk to Gu?"
"This disease has been dormant for a long time and its symptoms are rare. Once it breaks out, I am afraid it will affect millions of people. I have been studying it for a long time and received instructions from my teacher. I am lucky enough to know the way to resolve it. I am willing to offer it to the prince. I just want to ask the prince. Fulfill one of Pindao’s wishes.”
Bai Qi didn't want to use the lives of people as bargaining chips, but now he had to resort to this strategy, otherwise he would not think of any other way to get what he wanted from the prince.
Zhan Changfeng's phoenix eyes were deep and cold, "The Taoist priest comes from the real Taoist sect."
"Yes." Bai Qi took care of the two junior sisters who were still being detained by this person and reported his family status. "Pindao is under the throne of Kongmen. Kongmen is one of the immortal veins. It is hidden in the mist and has no involvement in human affairs."
"Immortal veins." Zhan Changfeng half-closed his eyes, "What is an immortal?"
"Those who become saints in the flesh, have perfect merits, transcend life and death, and jump out of the cycle of cause and effect are immortals." Bai Qi didn't know why the prince asked this, so he considered it and said, "Immortals are hard to find, and most of them are cultivators."
“Can we know the past, present and future, and know everything and be omnipotent?”
Bai Qi raised his eyes and looked up, and met the prince's gaze. It was like a silent abyss, like the vast universe, about to swallow him up. He would rather keep watch and replied, "This may be the case for those who have succeeded in the great road."
He only heard a cold snort of unknown meaning, his heart skipped a beat, and he did not dare to go on, "The way to resolve the epidemic requires two things. One is the Thousand Treasures Glazed Lamp in your hand, and the other is an Ice-Hearted Snow Lotus. I sincerely ask Your Highness After the epidemic is resolved, a thousand treasures and glazed lamps will be given to Pindao."
"Qianbao Liulizhan Gu does know where the Bingxin Snow Lotus is. How can only one plant save hundreds of thousands of people in the south of the city?"
Zhan Changfeng tapped on the table, and the slow and heavy sound penetrated the eardrums, making Bai Qi tremble. He didn't know if the prince would let him go if he knew the function of the Qianbao Glazed Lamp, but the people who were about to suffer would How dare he hide it there.
"Bingxin Snow Lotus is a rare spiritual object that has the effect of curing all kinds of diseases. Pindao has asked about it. It was unexpectedly acquired by the ancient Taoist Temple a hundred years ago and has been treasured to this day. The Qianbao Glazed Lamp is a treasure, no matter what it is. When water is poured into it, it will turn into spiritual water that can prolong life. The most important thing is that after it recognizes its owner, it can turn a drop of water into infinity. Therefore, if a ice-hearted snow lotus is made into powder and mixed into water, it will There can be infinite potions.”
"How to make it recognize its master?" Zhan Changfeng asked.
"A cultivator needs to use his magic power to sacrifice it."
Zhan Changfeng looked at Bai Qi, who was indifferent and downcast, and suddenly smiled and said, "Have you ever heard of the word, Taoist Priest, which is called a white wolf with empty gloves? Are you thinking that Dinggu can only hand over the Qianbao Glaze Cup to you?" "
"I don't dare." Bai Qi's face didn't change.
Zhan Changfeng didn't talk nonsense to him, "You may not be the only cultivator in the world. If you take out a few of my royal family's treasures, you can always summon some. I will give you a choice. With this treasure, I will exchange for your protection." Can I do it for three hundred years?"
"Pindao needs to think about it."
"I'll give you one day."
Zhan Changfeng asked Jin Xiu, "Where is Yuanyuejue?"
"Still staying at Shimen Pass."
"Tell him the whole story of the epidemic. Daqian is willing to spend a lot of money to buy Bingxin Snow Lotus from Gudao Temple. If Gudao Temple is unwilling, we will take action again. This matter will be completed as soon as possible within three days."
"Here."
Zhan Changfeng summoned another official from the East Palace and wrote a letter to him, "Go back to the imperial capital and ask the emperor for the Qianbao Glazed Lamp."
"Here."
She was the only one left in the hall. She frowned and opened the official documents that used to make her feel nervous just by looking at them. She smiled coldly in her heart. Hehe, he usually talks nicely, like "I'm here" and "I will solve it." , but in the end the shadow didn’t disappear.
She sneered and sneered, then felt powerless again. All those ghostly shadows and whispers disappeared. Why even Yi Changsheng disappeared? Was it the two tokens that caused the ghost, or was this just a mirror image.
Ten years ago, the voice of God's will stuck in her heart and became a thorn. She did not hesitate to kill people. Finally, today, she was about to break this God's will. Why did she angrily sweep the official documents on the case to the ground? Why was there only one left? Get off her!
"Your Highness?" After seeing Bai Qi and others leaving, the steward who hurriedly came in to serve them held his breath and cautiously called the person above him.
Zhan Changfeng closed her eyes and meditated. Da Qian's affairs were not finished yet. She was not qualified to be willful. "Pick it up."
"Here." The manager quickly picked up the official documents scattered on the ground and neatly placed them on her desk again.
