Chapter 298 Where
Chapter 298 Where
When they arrived at the space, they suddenly changed their location. The two horses were so scared that they tried to break free from the reins and run away.
Yu Tingwan and Shen Chenli hurriedly comforted them and fed them some spiritual spring water. Unexpectedly, they immediately became quiet.
Looking at them running quietly on the grass, Yu Tingwan shook his head and laughed.
“Animals are also very spiritual!”
The two did not follow Song Shixu, but went to the capital before him.
Capital City, Imperial Palace.
"Give it to me, I feel so uncomfortable, please, give it to me!"
The emperor's bedroom, the entire bedroom, even outside there was no one to be seen, everywhere was empty.
The emperor lay on the dragon couch, looking at the person standing beside his bed, and his hoarse voice echoed in the bedroom.
Even though his voice sounded so painful, no one came to see him, let alone the Queen Mother. Even his most capable eunuch chief, Eunuch Cao, was nowhere to be seen!
At this moment, the emperor was filled with only regret.
He looked at the so-called masters in front of him. Were they all fake? Was it all a trap?
And he couldn't wait to jump in?
This matter is the most ridiculous thing in the world!
But it was too late to regret now. When he became more and more dependent on the medicine, when he felt itchy if he didn't take it for a day, and when he had to take several pills a day, he realized that everything was over.
Today, not only has his power gone into the wrong hands, but even his own safety is a problem.
But what he didn't expect was that this man not only asked him to eat, but also asked him to call other ministers to eat one by one.
If he didn't shout, he would just lie here in pain.
For this reason, he could only call them into the hall one by one to question them.
At first, he looked for those who seemed honest and not so powerful, and made them take the medicine under various pretexts.
Later, it changed. What's wrong with being in a high position? You still have to listen to him. Eat!
When he saw some officials who had been against him begging him to give him an elixir, he suddenly felt very happy.
Right, that is it!
Why am I the only one in such a miserable state? You who are not as good as me should crawl at my feet!
I want to see you begging helplessly, I want to see your so-called proud character shattered into pieces and turned into a miserable state under the influence of this little pill!
So, one, two, whatever, eat them all!
But the master was still dissatisfied, because the people he wanted to control the most did not eat. Who were they?
It's the Prime Minister! It's the Duke of Fuguo! It's the Marquis of Ruyang!
At a certain moment, the emperor suddenly understood that this was the real purpose of Dong Qi.
Not only himself, but the emperor is the least important one.
What they wanted from the beginning to the end was the group of trusted ministers in the court!
They are the ones we want to control. As long as we control these people, the Da Sheng Kingdom will be completely finished!
But even at this time, the emperor was unwilling to admit his mistake.
He just wanted everyone, everyone who had ever been against him, to become like him.
No, it's even worse than him!
Therefore, his first target was the Duke of Fuguo.
But maybe the Duke of Fuguo heard the rumors or something, and he kept claiming to be sick. He never left the palace, let alone the courtyard, and stayed in his room the whole time!
The emperor had no choice but to look for someone else.
It was at this moment that he suddenly thought of Song Shixu who had always been by Shen Chenli's side.
Yes, Song Shixu has been helping Shen Chenli, so he should go find Marquis Ruyang!
Marquis Ruyang was attending court two days ago, so I had no choice but to come!
Before today, he had already given three pills to Marquis Ruyang. He must be unable to bear it any longer!
But! Looking at the person standing in front of his bed, what should he do? He couldn't help it!
"Master, please, give me the medicine. I will find a way. I will definitely find a way to make them all take the medicine. Believe me, I can do it!"
Looking at the skinny emperor lying on the bed, the master chuckled, took out a pill from his arms and handed it to him.
When the emperor saw the pill, it was as if he suddenly had strength in his body, and he even had the strength to reach out and grab the pill.
After receiving the pill, the emperor quickly stuffed it into his mouth without letting water flow, not worrying about choking if he didn't click it.
Soon, a strange expression appeared on his sallow and skinny face.
As if he was extremely comfortable, the emperor closed his eyes slightly and lay down on the bed, thinking of nothing, not even caring about the so-called master beside him.
“Hahahaha~Ahahaha~”
Bursts of strange laughter were heard. The master sitting aside just watched the emperor lying on the bed in a mad state, with an inexplicable smile on his face.
"Soon, everyone here will become like this!"
After saying this, the master turned to look at the little boy standing in the corner acting as an invisible man.
"Go, have someone summon Marquis Ruyang and tell him that the emperor has something important to tell you, and have him come to the palace immediately!"
The little boy bowed deeply, took the order and left the bedroom.
Marquis Ruyang came into the palace and looked at the door of the bedroom. He felt a chill in his heart and walked in with trembling hands.
The court dress that once seemed to fit well now looked a little loose, and what was even more shocking was the appearance of Marquis Ruyang at this moment.
His face was dry and thin, like the bark of a thousand-year-old tree that had been dried by the wind. His eye sockets were sunken, and his eyes were full of gloom and anxiety. One could get a chill down one's spine if one glanced at him casually.
"Master, Marquis Ruyang has arrived!"
Inside the hall, the emperor was already sitting on the Arhat couch, playing chess with the master.
Her face was a little rosier and brighter than before, but there was a hint of gloom in her eyes as she looked at Marquis Ruyang.
"Your Majesty, long live the emperor!"
No one told him to stand up, so Marquis Ruyang could only continue kneeling.
I don’t know how long I waited before I heard the emperor’s voice coming from above my head.
"I love you!"
Marquis Ruyang stood up to express his gratitude. When he stood up and looked forward, he saw a familiar small box on the emperor's table.
The familiar black box with red patterns made Marquis Ruyang's heart skip a beat, but he also felt a strange expectation.
Seeing Marquis Ruyang's breathing suddenly become rapid, the emperor grinned, stood up and walked to Marquis Ruyang.
"My dear, if you don't want to say anything else, just tell me how I treat you."
"Master, this elixir is not something that anyone can take. If I didn't value you, I wouldn't choose to give you such a precious thing and let you become an immortal together with me. So, my dear, you must know how to repay your kindness!"
The emperor's last sentence was very meaningful.
Marquis Ruyang watched as the master stretched out his hand to open the box, revealing the black pill inside. A familiar scent entered his nose, and in an instant, Marquis Ruyang's body trembled noticeably.
He bowed slightly and said, "I will be loyal to Da Sheng and die with no regrets!"
The emperor looked at his lowered head with dissatisfaction in his eyes, but he didn't say anything. He reached out and personally helped Marquis Ruyang up.
After Marquis Ruyang stood firm, he looked at him and said with a smile:
"I feel relieved by your words, my dear minister. By the way, I remember that the prince is at the border, right?"
Marquis Ruyang's heart skipped a beat and he looked at the emperor, not knowing what to do.
When the emperor looked at Marquis Ruyang's appearance at this moment, he was satisfied with his performance.
Then he said slowly:
"I wonder where the prince's heart is?"
