Lanke Chess Edge

Three days have passed.

As soon as Chu Jun stood up and supported the seemingly healthy old emperor some time ago, he immediately returned to the sluggish state before Yin Zhaoxian came back, and it was even worse.

Two years ago, the old emperor was confident that he could live for at least ten years, and he was even more confident that he would find immortals and obtain the elixir of life within this period of time.

The old emperor also had a lot of luck. When he poured his energy into seeking immortals, he learned a lot of information that showed some traces of immortals. Although it seemed unattainable, it was enough to confirm the existence of immortals.

This gave the old emperor the idea of ​​living forever and enjoying the imperial power in the world. The two sons of Wu Wang and Jin Wang are indeed not mediocre, but in this case they are very annoying.

It's just that he didn't expect that a water and land ceremony full of opportunities would hit the old emperor so badly that his body collapsed and the road to immortality seemed to be lost.

Those celestial masters who stayed in the capital, although some of them had some skills, but the old emperor, who had seen the methods of the real immortal family, could no longer look at them, and he knew very well that those few people could not make the elixir of immortality.

What made the old emperor even more desperate was that his physical condition was even worse than he had imagined. Yin Zhaoxian was fine when he made drastic changes in Wanzhou, but then it went from bad to worse.

At this moment, Emperor Yuande was lying on the bed and resting with his eyes closed in the palace of the emperor in Gyeonggi Province.

Although the weather wasn't too cold, Emperor Yuande was very afraid of the cold now, and the whole bedroom was warmed by the charcoal stove.

Emperor Yuande, who had just finished drinking the medicine, was exhausted, but under neurasthenia, he could not sleep with his eyes closed.

Ji Yuan is in the palace right now, standing beside the old emperor's bed and watching him.

The various guards in the palace are naturally of little use to people like Ji Yuan, but the emperor on the throne is actually related to the fate of humanity and the country, and has the aura of crape myrtle, which can ward off evil spirits to some extent. But now the breath is much, much weaker.

"Ho... ho... ho..."

After all, the old emperor couldn't fall asleep, and opened his eyes again, staring at the top of the bed, panting and dazed.

Ji Yuan would be curious what he was thinking.

In his previous life, he probably didn't come into contact with many people in such a position in his life, but now he finds that no matter whether it is a farmer who has worked all his life or an emperor who is in the destiny of the country, he looks the same before death, maybe The latter is even worse.

"Hey...is anyone...in?"

The old emperor suddenly asked hoarsely.

The old eunuch who was dozing off at the side immediately woke up, walked to the bed with small steps and responded in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, the old slave is here!"

The emperor looked at him, shook his head, with a gloomy look in his eyes, but in fact, Ji Yuan was standing beside the old eunuch, but the old eunuch bowed and approached the emperor, while Ji Yuan stood with his hands behind his back.

"Your Majesty, what do you need?"

The old eunuch asked again carefully, the death of the tiger is still there, let alone the emperor is not dead yet.

But the old emperor didn't look at the old eunuch, but opened his eyes a little bit wider, looked at the side of the old eunuch, stretched out a trembling hand, trying to grab something forward.

The chief eunuch Li Sizhe looked to the side, then scanned the surroundings, there was no one else but himself.

"Your Majesty, may I ask you a question?"

Ji Yuan's plain and gentle voice suddenly reached Emperor Yuande's ears, making the latter's eyes widen and his breathing a little short.

"Ho... ho... ho... please, please!"

Ji Yuan smiled.

"Old Mr. Lu should have asked you a question in front of the hall, but in the end you have no fate, I can pull him over again, do you want to see him?"

"Ho, ho ho... Can, can you bring me back to life?"

Hearing the old emperor's question, Ji Yuan also shook his head.

"Life and death are the cycle of heaven and earth. Your Majesty has already run out of oil and lamps. It is okay to wait a little longer. It is too late to restore vitality."

"Then...then why..."

Ji Yuan knew what the old emperor wanted to ask, and answered with a smile again.

"Bring him here, and let you scold him. It's okay to get rid of some knots. In your current state, he should still be willing to see you."

When the old emperor was talking to Ji Yuan in a trance, the eunuch Li Sizhe next to him looked at the emperor and then at the empty side, and a trace of panic rose in his heart.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter with you, Your Majesty? Your Majesty?"

The old eunuch waved his hand in front of the old emperor's eyes, but the old emperor's eyes were not focused on him at all, as if he turned a blind eye to him.

"Your Majesty, who are you talking to, Your Majesty? Your Majesty..."

The old eunuch's voice involuntarily became a little louder, alarming the maids and eunuchs waiting outside, and two maids and two eunuchs trotted in hastily.

"Eunuch Li, what happened?"

Li Sizhe looked at the emperor's bed, and said to several people with an extremely ugly expression.

"Prepare the king ginseng soup, your majesty may be dying, hurry up and tell the princes, adults, and harem ladies to come over! Hurry up!"

"Yes Yes!"

The eunuchs and maids all showed shock and ran out in a hurry. The palace people and guards outside also quickly dispersed after receiving the news.

Ji Yuan looked at the direction in which the eunuchs and maids left, and looked at the concerned chief eunuch Li Sizhe beside him.

"Your Majesty, do you need me to find him?"

The old emperor looked at Ji Yuan in a daze, took a few breaths and asked.

"You, who are you?"

The old eunuch Li Sizhe hurriedly walked to the front of the old emperor's line of sight, and responded with a heavier voice.

"Your Majesty, it's an old slave, this old slave is Li Sizhe! Don't you know me, Your Majesty? I'm an old slave..."

The old emperor was out of breath for a while, and stretched out his hand to Li Sizhe's side in excitement.

"You... get out..."

The old eunuch was so frightened by the old emperor's stare that his heart trembled, and he shrank and hid to the side.

Ji Yuan took a look at the old eunuch.

"Your Majesty's current situation, don't get angry. This Eunuch Li is also concerned about it, so he is in chaos. He can't see me. As for who is next? Hehe..."

Ji Yuan couldn't help but smile again.

"Your Majesty, do you still remember the moon cake that was not grasped in the hall?"

Ji Yuan wanted to tease, "Did Your Majesty drink that mooncake soup?", but after thinking about it, he didn't want to irritate the old emperor.

"Oh... so that's the case... Immortal Master, you..."

"Since I came to see His Majesty, I naturally have some karma with His Majesty, but it's not what His Majesty thinks."

At this stage, Emperor Yuande also understood, tremblingly raised his hand and saluted.

"Excuse me, Immortal Master go invite Nalu Immortal Master..."

Ji Yuan also bowed back.

"Your Majesty can hold on. Old Mr. Lu is a man of great immortality in the world. It may not be easy to find, so Ji will go."

After saying this, Ji Yuan walked out, in the eyes of the old emperor, Ji Yuan's figure faded away within a few steps, and soon disappeared.

"Ho... ho... ho ho..."

The old emperor lay back on the bed again, panting due to the physical exertion caused by the excessive excitement just now.

...

Time passed slowly, and people inside and outside the palace also rushed over after receiving the news.

"Father!" "Your Majesty~~"

"Your Majesty~~"

...

Following voices of real and false concern, many relatives and ministers of the royal family came one after another.

Before Emperor Yuande was too annoying, he didn't want anyone to accompany him, even the imperial concubine Ren just came to see him sooner or later, but now when he heard the news from the palace, everyone hurried over.

These are just the ones that came quickly, with many more on the way.

After looking at the crowd, the old emperor closed his eyes again and rested his mind, without saying anything.

A eunuch came over with a hundred-year-old ginseng soup carefully, and Concubine Ren took the initiative to pick up a spoon to feed the emperor ginseng soup, but saw the old emperor waved his hand, saying that it was not used yet.

Outside the palace, Ji Yuan walked towards the Earth Temple very purposefully. Although he told the old emperor that it was difficult to find the old beggar, Ji Yuan had already expected the whereabouts of the old beggar.

It's hard to say if the other party has already left Dazhen, but since they know they must be in Dazhen, then Ji Yuan predicts that Lu Niansheng must be in Gyeonggi Prefecture when Emperor Yuande is about to die.

Maybe the two beggars rushed to the capital after visiting the Ju'an Xiaoge in Jizhou last time.

Among the Gyeonggi provinces, the most related to Ji Yuan is the burly land of Gyeonggi Prefecture. This land can be regarded as the strongest among the land gods that Ji Yuan has seen over the years.

When I arrived at the temple, I didn't even go inside the temple. I just entered the temple through sound transmission. After a while, the Lord of the Land appeared to see Ji Yuan.

It was still the tall and burly figure, the same green beard and black eyes, and the same rattan staff that looked like it could be used as a heavy weapon.

"Mr. Ji, why are you looking for this old man?"

Ji Yuan hurriedly returned the gift.

"Trouble the Land Lord to help Ji find someone, that old beggar, who should be in Gyeonggi Province."

"Oh, how difficult it is!"

When the land lord's cane hit the ground, there was a circle of ripples immediately, which was a bit like the change when Ji Yuan used Jushen, but it was different.

"I found it, he has not hidden his interest, Mr. Ji will follow me!"

Landlord rested on Ji Yuan's shoulders, the two fled into the ground in a daze, and escaped by a bridge in the west of the city after a while, and happened to see two beggars, the elder and the younger, taking a nap under the bridge.

"Uh, Mr. Ji is also in Kyoto?"

The old beggar rubbed his eyes and asked in surprise.

"Hey, Mr. Lu, come with me."

"Where are you going?"

Ji Yuan looked at the little beggar and then at the old beggar, teasing in his heart and asking a serious question.

"The palace, I'm here to invite you, do you want to save face?"

"Mr. Ji's face... of course it has to be given!"

The old beggar hesitated, but stood up anyway.

Half an hour later, in the palace, several princes, concubines, and some important officials including Yin Zhaoxian were already in the bedroom, while many ministers and relatives of the emperor were standing outside.

Ji Yuan led the old beggar into the palace, while the young beggar stayed in the earth temple.

When the two of them reached the area of ​​the bedroom, they saw that there were guards from the underworld waiting outside. It seemed that the old emperor's time was really approaching.

However, the old emperor will not enter the underworld when he dies. Due to the influence of Dazhen Guozuo Qi, he will first enter the Taimiao and then enter the imperial mausoleum.

But this means that the yin house is more spacious, and there will still be accountability for things in life, just because the spiritual seat entered the Taimiao, and Dazhen Guozuo's qi is guaranteed, and it will not be directly blown away by the punishment of the underworld, but to ensure that it will survive this time. doomed.

Compared with ordinary people, of course there will be benefits. As long as Dazhen is not destroyed, the royal family will definitely not be short of paper money and tributes in the underworld. Enjoying the Taimiao forever is just a fantasy of the royal family in the world.

When Ji Yuan and the old beggar came in, no one else could see them, but only the old emperor could see them walking slowly to the bedside from blurred to clear.

It's just that the old emperor's state is worse than before, and he can't muster much energy to speak.

"Ginseng, ginseng soup!"

The old emperor finally spoke, and the always warm ginseng soup was carefully fed into the mouth of the old emperor by Concubine Ren.

The hundred-year-old ginseng soup hangs his life, and he brought it up in one breath, and the old emperor's face turned ruddy immediately.
