The best ring

Chapter 1640 Coughing up blood

The old emperor knew to some extent Zhao Qi's feelings for Wu Fan. The last time Zhao Qi left the imperial capital, she went to Qingyuan County to find Wu Fan. And according to Huang Ze's report, the old emperor knew that his daughter had feelings for Wu Fan. It gave birth to feelings.

The old emperor didn't know how Wu Fan felt about Zhao Qi, but he felt that his daughter was beautiful, well-behaved, and had a distinguished status as a princess. Now she took the initiative to show love to Wu Fan. As long as Wu Fan is a normal man, he shouldn't be able to refuse.

Therefore, it is very likely that Wu Fan also likes Qi'er.

In this way, it is not impossible that when Wu Fan knew that he was marrying Qi'er far away, he would definitely feel sad and would secretly follow her and protect Qi'er secretly.

"It's just that he is so strong that he can rescue Qi'er from the heavy siege?" the old emperor said to himself.

Regarding the dangers encountered by the escorting team in Fengliang City, the old emperor had already learned from the spies' reports that the eunuchs and maids were killed. This is not surprising, but even so many soldiers of the Royal Forest Army were killed. It can be seen that How powerful is the force sent by Shuiyue Kingdom and Xiufeng Kingdom together.

The old emperor did not deny that Wu Fan was very powerful. Otherwise, Wu Fan would not have been able to complete the task of assassinating the second prince of Shuiyue Kingdom, and also wipe out all the rebel forces around Qingyuan County.

But this time the situation is obviously different. He is in the enemy's capital. No matter how stupid the people of Xiufeng Kingdom are, they will not let them bring too many troops into the city. In other words, Wu Fan can There were very few people, not even comparable to the Royal Forest Army team he sent to protect Qi'er. Under such circumstances, how could Wu Fan win Qi'er?

The old emperor was a little confused.

But if it wasn't Wu Fan, then who would it be?

Perhaps, by contacting Qier or Shao Haogang, the old emperor could get the answer to this matter. Unfortunately, he has now lost contact with Shao Haogang and Zhao Qi.

The old emperor suppressed the matter for the time being and read the letter again. When he saw that the Emperor of Xiufeng Kingdom was killed, the eldest prince was deposed, and a little baby was helped to the throne, the old emperor's mouth showed a trace of ridicule. smile.

Even though he still didn't know what exactly happened, with the wisdom of the old emperor, he could tell at a glance that there was something fishy in it. The old emperor was very familiar with what kind of person Zhao Qian was, and he would never believe that Zhao Qian He would make such a ridiculous decision before he died.

If it were in the past, the old emperor would definitely not miss this opportunity and would definitely do something. But now, Yanfeng Kingdom has a lot of troubles of its own, and it is at a critical juncture in the alliance with Tianji Kingdom. If it is at this time There's no guarantee that Tianji Kingdom won't think too much about Xiufeng Kingdom's idea.

Therefore, the old emperor could only give up with regret.

As for what was written in the letter, the old emperor scoffed at the so-called rumors released by the Xiu Feng Kingdom. Even if there was no news released by the Xiu Feng Kingdom, the old emperor knew that the attack on the escorting team must have something to do with the Shuiyue Kingdom. However, Xiu Fengguo thought it was smart to spread the rumors and try to distance itself from this matter. In the eyes of the old emperor, it was simply ridiculous.

It's a pity that he can't take action against Xiufeng Kingdom now, otherwise, the old emperor will definitely let the people of Xiufeng Kingdom know how stupid his behavior is.

"Cough, cough..." Thinking about something in his mind, the old emperor's lungs suddenly felt cramped, and then he coughed violently.

The old emperor covered his mouth with his hand. When he took his hand away, he saw a trace of blood on his palm. Seeing this trace of blood, the old emperor's face did not show surprise or panic, and remained calm as usual.

This is not the first time that he has coughed up blood. Recently, he has had this happen almost every day. The old emperor is very aware that his body, although it seems to be fine, is actually about to run out of fuel. It's time, now he is just holding on.

"If any of my princes could satisfy me, I wouldn't have to suffer so hard." The old emperor thought with a little sadness in his heart.

Thinking of his several princes, the old emperor felt a pain in his heart. Those princes were allowed to eat, drink and have fun. They were proficient in everything, but in terms of managing the country, they were more useless than the other. Otherwise, he would not As for now, I am still struggling.

You know, now his body is extremely weak and he is full of diseases, but he is still holding on for the sake of this country, and the price is that he has to endure huge pain every day, the kind of pain that ordinary people can't imagine, all the time. His absence tortured the old emperor, but he couldn't show it, because the country was already in chaos at this time. If he had another physical problem, I'm afraid the chaos would intensify, and by then, it would be out of control. Maybe when the time comes, several other countries will take the opportunity to attack, including Tianji Kingdom, which is allied with them!

Therefore, at this time, the old emperor must not fall down. He cannot even let anyone know the true condition of his body, not even the people closest to him!

The old emperor himself had planted many spies in other countries. He knew very well that other countries, especially those superpowers, must have also planted many spies in his own country. These spies might even have sneaked into the palace. He had to defend.

"I hope my body can last a little longer." The old emperor thought to himself.

He sacrificed his most beloved daughter in order to buy some time for himself and the country to clean up the current corrupt situation, but the old emperor felt a little powerless in his heart, because he had a premonition that even if he sacrificed Qi'er and bought some time, it might not be able to change the current situation in Yanfeng Country.

It was because the current situation in the country was too corrupt and it was no longer something he could change alone. He even felt powerless and desperate.

But he was unwilling to give up. As long as there was a chance, he would not let it go. He must do his best to bring some changes to his country.

The old emperor slowly stood up and said to the eunuch next to him: "Go back to the Yangxin Palace."

The old emperor's voice was still full of energy, and there was no sign of weakness.

"Yes."

After that, the old emperor took a sedan chair back to the Yangxin Palace with the eunuch next to him.

Shortly after the old emperor left the imperial study, another eunuch in the imperial study also left quickly. However, he did not follow the old emperor back to the Yangxin Palace or his own residence, but walked towards the east.
