Seeing that King Duan was willing to sit down and talk with them in detail, Xuan Xin and Xuan Ning both looked pleased, clasped their hands together and said, "That's good! That's good!"
Although he took a nap in the chariot compartment for a while, King Duan felt that his limbs were even more tired, and there was a sense of stuffiness in his chest. He always felt top-heavy and muddy.
Even so, after listening to Monk Xuan Ning's words, he still supported his body and walked in front to guide the two of them to the side hall.
After taking a few steps, his eyes blurred and he fell sideways.
"Your Majesty!" The old housekeeper broke into a cold sweat and shouted tremblingly. I wanted to hold him up, but my legs felt like they were filled with lead and I couldn't help but use them.
A shadow passed by, and old monk Xuan Ning appeared next to King Duan and lifted his arm.
... ...
Yu Lingyi had already said before that he had brought two tokens during his trip, the first of which had been given to An Wuyu, which was a secret letter written by An's ancestor to the Duanmu royal family.
When Duanmuyu handed these five letters to him, she didn't say that he could read them, and Yu Lingyi didn't read them, so she didn't know what was written in them.
However, from An Wuyu's expression and change of attitude, Yu Lingyi knew that this first token had already made An Wuyu 80% determined.
This second token is Duanmuyu's handwritten letter to Queen Julu, and Yu Lingyi has read it from beginning to end.
"call!"
Yu Lingyi threw the envelope at An Wuyu, "This second token is a personal letter from Emperor Yingzong of my country to you!"
An Wuyu caught the envelope and felt strange when he heard that it was a letter written by Duanmuyu to him. He tore open the outer envelope and took out the letter.
In the middle of the envelope is: Qi from the descendants of Julu.
On the lower left side of the envelope is: Duanmuyu's own handwriting.
Although there are only twelve characters, there is still a sharp and vigorous atmosphere in the traces. Seeing the words was like seeing a person, and before he knew it, An Wuyu had a hint of admiration in his heart.
... ...
After helping King Duan lie down on the bed, Xuan Xin walked out of the room.
There were people standing outside, old and young, men and women, all with furrowed brows and anxious expressions. When they saw Xuan Xin Xing coming out, they all gathered around him.
"Master, how is my father?" The person asking the question was a man about fifty years old, who was described as majestic and somewhat like a royal king.
Xuan Xin also had mixed feelings at this moment and sighed softly.
The backbone of Kuchan Temple is the great monk of the Dharma generation. The abbot and the heads of the main halls are all of the Dharma generation.
There were only three people left in the Xuan generation. Xuanxin, 69, was the youngest, Xuanyue, 82, was in the middle, and Xuanning, 93, was the oldest. The status of the three in the temple is still higher than that of the abbot.
Unexpectedly, in mid-May, after Xuan Yue led eight disciples and grandsons of the French generation and the Zhen generation to be recruited by the imperial court, the entire army was wiped out and killed in Pingzhou Plain.
When Monk Faxiang received the obituary from Sikong Mansion, he almost couldn't believe it. However, the obituary only stated that King Yi was assassinated in Pingshangyuan, Pingzhou. All four hundred guards were killed, and all the monks of Kuchan Temple were also killed in this battle. As for the ins and outs, it is unclear.
The official document was so perfunctory that the monks in Kuchan Temple were unwilling to give up. After Dharma Prime Minister reported the matter according to the facts, the two remaining senior monks in the temple decided to go down the mountain in person to seek an explanation from the court.
Monks who practice Zen are not originally obsessed with life and death. However, both of them had been in love with Xuan Yue for fifty or sixty years, and they still felt resentful after learning that he died tragically and unknownly.
Along the way, the two of them had already agreed that when they arrived in the capital, they would go straight to the person in charge of the recruitment.
As soon as they entered Prince Duan's Mansion, the steward of the Prince's Mansion said that Prince Duan was not here, which made the two of them suspicious. He also said that the master had just found an excuse to avoid guests. However, the reception given to them by the family was considerate, so they did not say much for a while.
Unexpectedly, from early morning to late at night, Prince Duan never came to see the two of them. Every time he asked, the housekeeper would reply, "The prince is busy."
At the request of the two of them, the housekeeper arranged their sleeping quarters in the small courtyard next to the stable.
Just then, the Qilin chariot passed by and made a lot of noise. After hearing the noise, the two people guessed that King Duan was back, so they got up in time and rushed over. They saw him walking towards the main courtyard, and that was the scene just now.
Looking at the eager eyes in this room, Xuan Xin felt quite uncomfortable, and replied in a deep voice: "King Duan is too tired, and his energy is almost exhausted, which is very bad."
"Wow!"
There was an instant commotion in the hall.
They know what it means to have the king in this palace.
They also know what it means to have the king in this critical court.
Without King Duan, Prince Duan's palace, and even the entire country of Great China, might collapse.
"Bang!"
Xia Muzhou suddenly knelt down on his knees, lowered his head and cried: "Master, please do whatever it takes to save my father!"
Xuanxin was stunned, not knowing how to answer him.
"The deadline is determined by God, and we shouldn't be afraid of death. However, the situation in Dahua is critical now, and the survival of our family and country hangs on a thread. My father, the king, must never die!" Xia Muzhou cried tremblingly.
Who would have thought that such a huge dynasty would eventually have to be supported by this old man who was nearly seventy years old?
Many people are wondering, how many evil things happened to bring Dahua to where it is today?
The emperor was seriously ill, three powerful princes passed away, and six first-rank ministers (the original five, plus Rui Rumin later) were killed...
First there was the Daijun sea disaster, then the Suzhou battle with Shatuo, then the Pingzhou dam burst, and the Pinan post mutinied...
Rumors have long spread among the people that "the Xia family's strength is exhausted and Dahua will perish."
What exactly is going on?
"My father must not die! Please do whatever it takes to protect him from death!" Xia Muzhou begged in a trembling voice.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
"..."
In one breath, all five to sixty people in the hall knelt down and worshiped.
Xuanxin was confused.
He never expected that the two of them came here to ask for an explanation, but at this time they were regarded as saviors by the Duan Palace family.
King Duan's health was very poor and he was almost exhausted.
Can King Duan be saved?
have.
Do you want to save him?
think.
Can you save him?
cannot.
When the essence is exhausted, we can only replenish it with food and medicine. However, it is too late.
The best essence is pure inner energy, the purer the better.
Although Xuan Xin had more than forty years of internal strength through the Marrow Cleansing Sutra, he still had not reached the point where he could extend King Duan's life.
He couldn't, but he knew there was someone who could.
... ...
Duanmuyu wrote two letters in his own hand, one to the descendants of King Leiyang and one to the descendants of King Julu.
An Wuyu read it word by word and murmured, "I've been waiting for this day."
PS: Special thanks - Jia Baoyu angrily killed Shi Xiangyun (I always thought this nickname was a bit scary)
Lao Mei's coding status is good and bad. These days, "Jia Baoyu Angrily Killed Shi Xiangyun" has corrected many mistakes for Lao Mei.
I had wanted to say a special thank you for a long time, but I couldn't remember it until I posted the post.
Welcome to continue to make corrections and correct mistakes together!
