"Prince-in-law, we have already reported your petition. Your Majesty is meditating and has ignored it for the time being. Please wait for a moment."
Ouchi, in the palace city.
Li Fan hugged Shuangmei and came to the outside of Hanyuan Hall.
This time, he was not allowed to enter immediately, but because of his status, he was still treated differently from other ministers.
"Okay, thank you, Eunuch Huang."
Li Fan smiled and nodded to him.
"Don't dare, don't dare. It is our family's blessing to be able to serve the Prince Consort."
The great eunuch's face was full of smiles, and he showed a completely different kind of kindness from the way he treated his ministers.
Huang Bo knew very well who could be offended and who could not be offended.
"Your Majesty usually takes an hour or two to meditate and practice. It's unfortunate that the Prince Consort has arrived. I'm afraid we may have to wait longer.
If you don't mind it, why not come to our hotel nearby? "
Li Ao pondered for a moment: "That's fine, then I'm sorry."
Huang Bo said with a smile: "Don't bother me, don't bother me."
Xuan is leading the way ahead.
During this period, Li Ao passed by the square in front of the temple and saw traces of the fight such as blood stains and broken stone bricks, and his expression was slightly stern.
"Eunuch Huang, these are..."
The palace is not so dilapidated that even bad roads have not been repaired. These traces must have appeared recently and there was no time to cover them up.
"My Prince Consort must have heard that a few days ago, those civil servants caused trouble and were ordered by His Majesty to take strict measures..."
Huang Bo's expression changed slightly, and he said with a bit of complexity.
"I see."
Li Ao didn't ask too carefully, and Huang Bo didn't explain too clearly.
However, there was a reason for the conversation, and Li Fan also took the opportunity to ask about Mr. Mo, the censor of Youkandu who was arrested before.
"Do you know, father-in-law, what is the situation of the man named Mo now?"
"Our family has not been to Dongchang Prison, but we also know that His Majesty was really angry because of the remonstrance and ordered a strict interrogation.
At this moment, Master Mo's situation may not be too good. "
Huang Bo didn't know whether it was true or false, he sighed and shook his head.
"Strict interrogation... interrogation for what?" Li Fan asked.
Huang Bo said: "Your Majesty suspects that the so-called remonstrance is someone deliberately uniting hundreds of officials to force the palace...
This matter is really hard to talk about. We dare to advise our prince-in-law that if we meet His Majesty later, we must not mention these things or make him angry. "
Li Ao pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "I understand. Thank you for your advice, father-in-law."
Huang Bo glanced at Li Fan and the white cat in his arms and didn't even dare to take it seriously.
…
"Prince Consort, Your Majesty is awake and has summoned you and His Highness to come in."
More than an hour later, Li Ao finally received Huang Bo's notification.
He stood up and went in to see Shuangmei in his arms.
Emperor Delong sat high on the throne, looking down on his subjects like a lofty god.
"What are you doing here?"
Li Chu pinched the white cat in his arms.
The white cat opened his mouth and said crisply: "Father, I have heard some bad things recently and I am worried about your health."
"It's just a cold wind occasionally. Don't listen to the rumors outside."
Emperor Delong's face brightened slightly.
Li Fan did not listen carefully to the chat between him and Yang Ju, but silently observed with his voyeuristic eyes.
He was surprised to find that at this moment, the top of Emperor Delon's head was intertwined with gray, white and black colors, forming a thick cloud.
Several strands seem to have the same origin, but have different levels and textures of essence intertwined together, like the tributaries of multiple rivers intermingling.
The handwriting formed by the pale firelight is looming, showing signs of mutual erosion.
"Evil (Emperor)"
"The Stranger (Yang Jing)"
…
"His condition is indeed not good. Could it be that he was eroded by the mysterious corpse before?
, damaged the foundation?
Upon closer inspection, there are indeed some strange source materials inside that are suspected to be immortal corpses.
This kind of thing is mixed in his strange power, making it difficult to switch freely. "
After Li Fan saw this phenomenon with his own eyes, he vaguely understood what was going on.
It turns out that the method of dividing humans and demons is essentially two people in one.
As long as the body and soul can be placed separately, strange pollution will also occur in different places.
Among them, the ontological part of the human consciousness, where the "foreigner (Yang Jing)" is located, can repel all the pollution caused by the use of power to the other side of the evil body, allowing it to affect itself.
Normally, this exclusion is effective.
Weird pollution will not easily flow back and contaminate the human body and consciousness.
But perhaps because the curse on the immortal corpse was too powerful, Emperor Delon produced a large amount of strange pollution in a short period of time, and was not able to discharge it in time.
That's why I suffered from the "sickness" some time ago.
"The practice of using Zihe chariot to refine elixirs is probably also to strengthen the human body in conjunction with exotic treasures such as human-creating soil!
If you want to effectively reduce the concentration of strange pollution, your own Qi and blood, as well as gains related to the human body's endurance are all useful. "
Just when Li Fan thought of this, Emperor Delong suddenly coughed violently.
Then, his body tilted and he fell to the side.
Huang Bo, with quick eyes and quick hands, supported him and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? Your Majesty...
Come here, call the imperial doctor quickly! Send the imperial doctor quickly! "
There was a commotion in the curtain behind the palace.
It seemed that someone was alerted and ran out quickly.
Yang Yan's surprised voice came out: "Father!"
Li Chuan was also surprised.
But as his gaze swept across, he was suddenly shocked.
The strange aura on Emperor Delon did not fluctuate much.
As a result of his previous eagerness for quick success, his current physical condition is definitely not good.
But it was definitely not so bad that he coughed up blood and fainted.
unless……
He's just pretending!
"He is testing me! He is also testing everyone around him!"
Li Fan was shocked.
As an old emperor who has controlled the government for decades, Emperor Delong's acting skills are absolutely top-notch.
If it were someone with ulterior motives, it might really be considered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Even if you refrain from taking action in person, you will inevitably test him when you look back.
If you do that, you will definitely fall into a trap.
But having said that, there are some things that are really hard to tell whether they are true or false.
If there was no problem, why would he bother to act?
Li Ao resisted the urge to yell and cursed, and "looked shocked and at a loss".
Although his acting skills are not outstanding, his performance is more realistic because of his confidence.
He compared Li Xin's temperament and compared it with Li Xin's temperament.
