"What's wrong with you?" Old Marshal Qiu glared at Yun Yang, obviously dissatisfied with the person's careless interruption that disregarded the occasion.
Didn't they see that these people were so bold, ambitious, and arrogant?!
"I just wanted to say that I can actually help His Majesty delay the situation with this medicinal pill …" Yun Yang looked at Qiu Jianhan innocently. "The mystical skill and mystical Qi that I cultivate … has a unique effect in resisting various poisons and substances in this world. As long as I comb through His Majesty's meridians every few days, the poison can be suppressed. I'm very confident about this. Wasn't it proven the other day?"
"What? What did you say? " Qiu Jianhan could not quite believe what he had just heard. Even his old brother, the Unrivaled Physician You Tiexin, whom he had high hopes for, was helpless against such a venomous poison. How dare you say that you can handle it? If you are so capable, why don't you ascend to the heavens?
"I'm speaking the truth. I've helped His Majesty comb through his meridians that day. Otherwise, do you think that His Majesty's intelligence is so clear now? It's because I've suppressed the poison that has invaded His Majesty's head that His Majesty has regained consciousness! Old Marshal, you can't erase such a huge contribution from me! "Yun Yang said with a face full of grievance.
The three of them were stunned when they heard him. Old Marshal Qiu recalled what had happened that day. His Majesty's mind had been muddled then, without the wisdom and decisiveness he was now. It was all because of Yun Yang's contribution. Did it not mean that things were not as hopeless as they seemed?
"Why didn't you say so earlier? It's such an important matter! "Qiu Jianhan was enraged amidst his joy.
Looking at the unreasonable old man, Yun Yang was speechless. "Old Marshal, one has to be reasonable. I've told you about His Majesty's physical condition and countermeasures after I helped him comb through his body the other day, but you didn't say anything else. You only thought of me today. No, it wasn't me that you thought of, it was the three spiritual herbs … This is the third time I've said it today …" Yun Yang was speechless.
"You didn't!" The old man was unreasonable. He immediately raised his hand, obviously intending to greet him with violence.
"Hmm … Just pretend that you didn't say it … Just take it that I've forgotten to mention it …" A wise man submits to circumstances, Yun Yang quickly corrected himself and apologized, "It's a moment of carelessness on my part. You're a man of great virtue and seniority …"
"Then what are you waiting for, brat? Hurry up and come take a look at His Majesty! "The old marshal blew at his beard. His face seemed to have turned red as well. Perhaps he was a little embarrassed or something, but it was not obvious.
Yun Yang chuckled dryly. Looking at You Tiexin who was already laughing by the side and His Majesty the Emperor whose eyes were filled with mirth, he nodded and bowed in agreement.
Then he stood up.
He really couldn't afford to offend this old man.
"Let me try your mystical skill and mystical Qi first, to get a feel for it." You Tiexin extended his hand.
Yun Yang knew that there must be a reason for this old man to do so. He was an expert in the medical field; his considerations must be thorough. He did not object nor did he mind it. Instead, he channeled his unique mystical Qi and circulated it through You Tiexin's meridians.
You Tiexin's expression had already changed greatly before he had even completed one round.
His eyes widened abruptly as he stared at Yun Yang, almost crying out in surprise.
"Alright, that's enough, that's enough." You Tiexin was trembling all over, his gaze towards Yun Yang burning with passion.
"Your Majesty, Old Marshal." You Tiexin deliberated over his words and said after a while, "With these three medicinal pills and Young Master Yun's mystical skill … you only need to consume them one by one over three months. Young Master Yun, Young Master Yun, will then circulate his Qi on the side … The poison in Your Majesty's body, at the very least, the most conservative estimate …"
He paused and said, "At least for the next five years, there's no need to worry too much. Even if you use mystical Qi occasionally … it's no big deal. Besides … "
"… if Young Master Yun's cultivation base can improve in the future, or if His Majesty's poison … can be slowly removed through Young Master Yun's unique mystical skill, completely cured!"
He heaved a long sigh of relief. "Yutang's fortune! The world's fortune! "
With that, His Majesty could not help but be delighted even though he had long disregarded his own life and death.
No matter how open-minded and open-minded one was, as long as one could live, who would really want to die?
As for Old Marshal Qiu, he was overjoyed. If he had not restrained himself, he might have been dancing with joy.
He took a step forward and patted Yun Yang's shoulder. "Good lad, you're so capable. You'll be the Empire of Yutang's national treasure in the future!"
Yun Yang moved behind His Majesty and secretly rolled his eyes for a while before he began the treatment.
National treasure? This elder brother is a national treasure!
His Majesty, who had consumed a pill and was cleared by Yun Yang's Endless Divine Art, stood up in high spirits, feeling unprecedentedly relaxed. He said in a refreshed manner, "It looks like I'm not fated to die yet. There will always be a savior from heaven."
His Majesty had actually started joking. Qiu Jianhan felt a huge weight lift off his shoulders.
"Still, Your Majesty shouldn't be too careless …" You Tiexin said, "You have to be careful during this period of time, especially when it comes to your diet … If the person who poisoned you finds out that Your Majesty has taken a turn for the better, he might change his strategy. The enemy will always be in the light while we're in the dark.
It's impossible to guard against it … "The old miracle physician had not finished his words.
However, both the old marshal and His Majesty understood what he meant.
His Majesty nodded faintly and said in a low voice, "Of course, I understand."
These five short words were enough to send shivers down You Tiexin's spine even though he was used to life and death, as well as Lord Supreme Cloud who spent his days in front of the gates of hell.
…
On the same night.
A case of treason had suddenly broken out in the palace.
There were more than three hundred eunuchs and a hundred maids in the palace, including all the chefs in the imperial kitchen and even the emperor's three favorite concubines, as well as many eunuchs and maids in the imperial study and bedchamber, as well as the families of the three favored concubines. All of them had been captured in one fell swoop!
All of them were pushed out of the Meridian Gate and executed in public!
There were more than eight thousand people who had died in this wave.
This wave of unforeseen events could be said to be huge, but the most incredible thing about this incident was the strength of the counterattack against the target — —
First, when the imperial guards were trying to arrest a few eunuchs in the palace, they were unexpectedly met with strong resistance. Among them, there were seven or eight eunuchs who had extraordinary skills of the fifth or sixth grade. After a fierce battle, the imperial guards who went to arrest them paid the price of a large number of casualties before they were able to capture all of them.
No, they did not manage to capture all of them. There were still three who had relied on their formidable abilities to break through the siege and escape with wounds all over their bodies.
A few of the maids by the side of the three favored concubines were quite skilled as well. After the siege, one of them managed to break through the siege while the others were killed on the spot after a fierce battle.
There were also the families of the three favored concubines. Two of them were captured as they were caught off guard, while the other family had a private army of thousands of men. They fought head-on against the imperial guards who came to capture them. Not only did they not lose the upper hand, they even seemed to be on the offensive. It was only when the city guards mobilized thirty thousand soldiers that the entire family was annihilated!
After the battle, the entire capital city was plunged into an atmosphere of blood. The unprecedentedly thick stench of blood did not dissipate even after many days had passed.
When His Majesty was enraged, corpses were everywhere and blood flowed like a river.
The entire capital city was trembling.
All the civil and military officials held their breaths; no one dared to act rashly.
This so-called rebellion came so suddenly that it was extinguished like a thunderbolt.
The Fourth Prince entered the palace to pay his respects. He did not have anything to do at first, but he did not know why he asked about this matter. His Majesty said darkly, "My son is quite concerned about this matter. I wonder which of your loyal subordinates' interests have been touched? You actually have to trouble me to ask about it personally. Since you are so concerned about it, why don't you take my throne? "
"Do I need you to ask about how I do things?! After you ask, do you need to reason with it and control it?! "
Faced with such sharp words, the Fourth Prince fled from the palace, drenched in sweat and scared out of his wits.
Even after he left the palace and returned to his mansion, his lips were still green and his face was pale.
This time, he was really frightened and fell ill after he returned home.
The meaning of His Majesty's words was not only a heavy threat, but the core of it was a direct attack on the heart!
Almost all the personnel in the Imperial Palace had undergone a complete change of blood.
On the second day, the new head chef of the imperial kitchen seemed to have offended His Majesty's taboo. His Majesty flipped the dining table, flew into a rage, and beheaded him in public. Then, in the afternoon, another head chef was appointed.
It was said that the Empress had pleaded for mercy for one of the concubines. His Majesty looked at the Empress coldly for a long time. Then, the Empress was grounded and had not left the Longevity Palace until now.
It was also said that she would probably not be able to come out for a year after this.
…
"Only half of them have been chopped off this time."
One night after the incident, His Majesty met Old Marshal Qiu in secret and said frankly, "As for the others, I … know who they are. But I can't do anything now. "
Qiu Jianhan comforted him, "Your Majesty, it's already a joyous occasion that your dragon body is safe and sound. There will be plenty of opportunities to settle scores with these fellows in the future. There's no need to rush. It's not good to startle them! "
"Hmm …"
