The previous Emperor Zhaoning was seriously ill around the beginning of spring, but I don't know if Qu Chunfeng's rebirth changed something, there was an early sign, and the smell of medicine on the letter paper did not go away.

Qu Chunfeng slowly folded the letter paper in half and put it away again. Facing Wu Xianrong's gaze, he didn't reveal a word, just said, "It's not a big deal, I'll send a letter to you, and you send someone to send it to the capital quickly."

It is a good thing to have someone at the front, so as to save yourself trouble and words, Wu Xianrong has no reason not to agree, and immediately invited Qu Chunfeng to the study, and personally studied the ink and held the paper, and waited on him. Can you find any traces of the mermaids? The lower officials have already prepared masters who are proficient in water, and there are dozens of warships. When the water and land are attacked, they will definitely be unable to escape."

Although Wu Xianrong still didn't think there was a mermaid, he still had to say something beautifully in the scene, and what if he found it? Finding the elixir of longevity for the emperor is a great contribution, and he must contribute no matter what.

Qu Chunfeng dipped his pen into the ink, and wrote the beginning. When he heard his words stop, a large amount of ink was soaked on the paper. He changed the paper again without changing his face, and said in a low voice, "Master Wu, go back first." Come down."

This is because he is too noisy.

Wu Xianrong's face was awkward, and there was inevitably some complaints in his heart. This master of the national teacher is not good at handling things. He looks upright, but he took a pile of gold and silver from himself. No face left.

Wu Xianrong said, "Then... the officer will leave first, and my lord will write a letter and give instructions."

After finishing speaking, he bowed and exited the study room, closing the door with his backhand.

Qu Chunfeng really didn't know how to answer this letter. Although Emperor Zhaoning was stupid and old, he was not easy to be fooled. He had tried all kinds of methods for longevity. Understanding is not under Qu Chunfeng.

If there is anyone in the world who firmly believes in the existence of Merman, then it must be Emperor Zhaoning.

If Qu Chunfeng said that he had not found any traces of the sharks, Emperor Zhaoning would definitely not believe him, and he might even anger everyone in the Tianyi sect, but if he said he found them, if he said he found them...

What should Linyuan do?

The name popped out of Qu Chunfeng's heart suddenly, and he was taken aback. The hand holding the pen was clenched unconsciously, and there was a crisp click sound, which actually broke the pen holder. He came back to his senses and hurriedly Abandoning the broken pen, like throwing away some hot potato, with a trace of imperceptible panic.

Qu Chunfeng only felt that something had changed in the dark, but he couldn't tell what had changed. He only knew that he hated this feeling of looking forward and backward, and now he needed something to report to the emperor no matter what. He has to be caught, and if he catches Lin Yuan accidentally at that time, he can just let him go.

If you catch Lin Yuan, let him go...

This was the best choice Qu Chunfeng could make after weighing the master's family. He changed a pen and was about to write when the system popped up suddenly. His chubby body covered the paper. You can't catch sharks if you keep flapping your wings on your back.

Qu Chunfeng paused, and swung it away with a flick of his sleeve. Although he didn't speak, the words "You care too much" were clearly written on his face.

The system hugged his brother, if he told the truth to the emperor, the mermaid clan would be extinct.

Qu Chunfeng thought that if he didn't tell the truth, what should he do if he goes up and down the Tianyi Gate, and Hong Guanwei who is far away in the capital, he quietly stared at the system, "What do you think, what should I do?"

Qu Chunfeng insists on being fair, but in fact his heart is very small, so small that he can only take care of those around him, no matter how far away he is, he can't reach him.

The system is silent for a moment, is there really no way to cure the poison on your body?

Qu Chunfeng closed his eyes and shook his head.

Hong Guanwei is a master of mystical art, with a life span of more than two hundred years. He has experienced two dynasties, and he has seen a lot. It hurt the whole family of the teacher, and tried the method of detoxification, but it didn't help.

They can only obey the emperor, there is no other way.

The system came up with an idea to steal the antidote?

Qu Chunfeng "I can't steal it."

Emperor Zhaoning was not stupid, how could the antidote be so easy to steal.

The system said, but if you catch the merman and go back, the emperor will continue to ask you to refine the elixir of longevity. If you can't make it by then, you will die.

Qu Chunfeng seems to be in a narrow alley, there are dead ends in front and behind, and there is no way out. He can only take one step at a time. Hong Guanwei is still under house arrest in the capital. carry on.

Qu Chunfeng only said one sentence, "My master is still in the capital."

The master who raised him from a young age is regarded as the master of his own son.

He can't ignore...

The brush was stained with thick ink, and the words "The Emperor's Personal Invitation" were almost written on the paper, and the system suddenly said that if you kill his clansman, he will hate you to death.

Another piece of paper is ruined.

Qu Chunfeng thought of the merman's clean hand with a piece of ink. He reacted and wiped it subconsciously, but it became more and more dirty, and finally turned into a mass of black marks, and he pursed his lips without moving.

The system says that there is no unparalleled path, first find a way to fool the emperor, and then find an antidote to rescue your master. A capable minister chooses a wise master to serve, and a fatuous emperor is not worthy of your allegiance at all.

The system is just a piece of data, and it can't think of any way to solve Qu Chunfeng's problem, but it is willing to believe that the interstellar executive's rebirth of the host must be to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, not to repeat the same mistakes.

Qu Chunfeng was also struggling in his heart. He knew that allegiance to the emperor was not a long-term solution.

Being controlled by the poisonous Gu every day, it is no different from a puppet. It may harm his wife and children in the future, so he must find a solution.

For the current plan, Qu Chunfeng can only delay until Emperor Zhaoning is seriously ill, maybe there is a glimmer of life, and then send another person to the capital to inquire about Hong Guanwei's news and rescue him.

Time passed bit by bit, and his heart was also caught in the entanglement between heaven and man. After about a stick of incense, he slowly picked up his pen as if he had finally made a decision.

Qu Chunfeng made up his mind and re-drafted a memorial, but he didn't write anything. He only said that the sea is vast and everyone in the Tianyi Sect is still searching. Please wait for the good news, seal it with wax, and hand it over to the government officials to send it in quickly. the capital.

After finishing all this, Qu Chunfeng left the government office, gathered the disciples of Tianyi Sect together, and dispatched several stable and reliable disciples to sneak into the capital in disguise, to rescue Hong Guanwei.

Mingxuan didn't understand, so he hesitated to say, "Brother, if we rescue Master, wouldn't it arouse the emperor's suspicion..."

At that time, the entire Tianyi Sect might not be able to escape the pursuit of the imperial court, let alone they are poisoned by Gu poison.

Qu Chunfeng frowned, "There is no longevity technique in this world. Even if we capture the mermaids back, we still can't practice the medicine for longevity. It's still death, so we might as well fight it out."

Mingxuan didn't expect such words to come from Qu Chunfeng's mouth, so he couldn't help but look at him in surprise. After all, in his heart, Qu Chunfeng was rigid and loyal to the emperor, and had never violated the rules. How could he do such a rebellious decapitation?

Mingxuan said in a low voice, "Senior brother, I'm not afraid of your scolding. In fact, I don't want to be driven by the monarch for a long time. The whole family of Tianyi is a good man, full of skills, and I can't do something anywhere, but I just want to listen to you." That Hunjun’s words, it’s really aggrieved to live, now that you’ve figured it out, the juniors below will naturally follow, even if they die, they will die happily.”

After he finished speaking, he carefully looked at Qu Chunfeng's expression, as if he was afraid of being beaten, he took a few steps back unconsciously.

"..."

Qu Chunfeng never knew that Mingxuan thought this way. In his heart, it is a good thing to protect the lives of everyone in the Tian family, but it turns out that freedom is ultimately greater than life and death.

Qu Chunfeng looked at him quietly, wanting to say something, but those words came to his lips, but he couldn't say a single one. He was used to being serious with these juniors, so he couldn't say anything soft, so he could only pat him. "Brother will not let you die..."

Even if the memorial sent by Qu Chunfeng was expedited by eight hundred miles, it would take a month at the fastest to reach the capital. However, on the tenth day, Emperor Zhaoning suddenly sent a team of special envoys, and the leader was Wang Chongxi, the general manager of the big house.

Wang Chongxi has served Emperor Zhaoning since he was a child. Although he is an eunuch, he is very good at observing words and demeanor. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the first closest person around the emperor. All civil and military officials and concubines in the harem are all courteous and bribed. Qu Chunfeng once had a relationship with him. We've met a few times, but not deeply.

The brigade of the Royal Forest Army rushed to the front of the Yamen of the governor's mansion in Quanzhou. The dust was flying all the way, and the momentum was fierce. The people along the way thought that something had happened, so they ran around and were scared. An old eunuch dressed as an eunuch descended from a luxuriously decorated carriage.

The special envoy arrived three days ago, and has been resting and rectifying at the post house. Wu Xianrong has stayed in this poor place of Quanzhou for more than ten years. He has never seen so many nobles from the palace. He received the news and waited in front of the government office early in the morning. Smiling, very attentive.

Seeing Wang Chongxi get off the carriage, Wu Xianrong hurriedly went up to him regardless of his status as the governor, and even bent several degrees, "Wu Xianrong, the governor of Quanzhou, has met Mr. Wang, and Mr. Wang has come all the way. The food and drink are ready, and adults are invited to enter."

Wang Chongxi was over fifty years old, with wrinkled face, sharp eyes, and a dust whisk in his arms. Facing Wu Xianrong's flattery, he just smiled, and at first glance, he seemed kind, and his voice was old, "Our family I came here to read the secret decree according to His Majesty's order, and we will talk about it later at the banquet, so how dare I ask where the national teacher is?"

Before he finished speaking, Qu Chunfeng came out from the inside. He was dressed in a white robe of a national teacher, covered with black gauze, with a high bun and adorned with Tai Chi crown jade. Except for the waistband with official pattern, the dress is generally the same.

Although Wang Chongxi is the head of the palace, he is only a fifth-rank official in the end. It is impossible for Qu Chunfeng to wait for him outside the door like Wu Xianrong.

Wang Chongxi, who was like a fine man, obviously knew Qu Chunfeng's temperament, so he didn't put on any airs. He immediately bowed down and saluted with a smile on his face, "I have seen the national teacher. I haven't seen him in the capital for several months. You're getting better and better."

Qu Chunfeng ignored his false praise, just wanted to know why the emperor suddenly sent a large group of people here, and raised his hand to help, "Is there something important for the prince to come here this time?"

Wang Chongxi said, "Of course there is something important, but it's a secret decree. I can only talk to the national teacher and listen to it." Please keep in mind:
