Sun Chengfeng's eyes suddenly lit up. He took a deep breath and said excitedly, "Old Lan, you have to help me no matter what! Only you can persuade His Majesty to hand over the Heart of the Fallen Star! "
Lan Wuxin frowned and said, "I dare not guarantee this. While the imperial jade seal is related to the nation's fate and can be changed, the siderite is a forbidden item of the royal family. It's the foundation of the nation's fate … I'm afraid that His Majesty won't be willing to take the risk. Moreover, the core of siderite may not necessarily be the core of the siderite used to establish the nation. Everything is unknown, it's in between!"
Sun Chengfeng said anxiously, "What are you saying? As long as there are clues and directions, we should give it our all. Elder Yun is now Ziyou's anchor, the common forefather of the Empire of Ziyou. What's more, he's contributing to the empire. How can Your Majesty be reluctant to part with even a piece of meteorite? Isn't that disappointing? "
Lan Wuxin said helplessly, "The problem is that this might not even exist now!"
Sun Chengfeng blew his beard and glared at him. "What do you mean it might not exist? I think you just can't bear to part with it. Even if it might not exist, you should at least take it out and give it a try."
Lan Wuxin was speechless.
Sun Chengfeng paused for a moment before continuing, "Since the founding emperor borrowed the power of this meteorite to establish his empire, he must have benefited greatly from it. Since he could benefit from it, it must not be an ordinary meteorite."
"Since it's not an ordinary meteorite, then there's a possibility that there's another mystery in it. I'm not 100% sure, but I'm at least 80% or 90% sure, right?"
The more Sun Chengfeng thought about it, the more he felt that his conjecture was logical. Therefore, he became more confident in forcing Lan Wuxin to look for the core of siderite.
Lan Wuxin looked helpless as he continued to push the responsibility away, not daring to agree to it.
After all, this was His Majesty the emperor's heirloom. It was equivalent to the Empire of Ziyou's national treasure. How could he dare to take it all for himself?
In the end, the two of them almost quarreled. Sun Chengfeng was so anxious that his face was red, and his white beard was blown straight. His anger soared to the heavens. He stomped his feet and said angrily, "Are you going or not? Are you coming or not? You're not going? Holy shit! I don't believe that I can't get this favor even if I have to sacrifice this old face of mine. If I can't get this favor back, Ziyou's royal family, Ziyou's imperial court, and Physician Genius Family will no longer accept patients in the future! "
Lan Wuxin was forced into a corner. Finally, he gritted his teeth and stomped his foot, saying angrily, "F * ck! I'll go, okay? "
Sun Chengfeng's anger had yet to subside as he said angrily, "Your tone is obviously reluctant, it means that you've never intended to help. Lan Wuxin, I've finally met you today. It's been so many years and I've only known you today that you're this kind of person! Ever since you became the Prime Minister of the Empire, you've lost all your humanity. Why didn't I realize that earlier? You're an ingrate. You eat and take, but you don't give anything out. You old bastard, I must've been blind to have become your brother for life. I regret it so much … "
Lan Wuxin was flustered as he held onto Yun Yang and whined, "Old Forefather, please be the judge. When did I say that I'm not going to help? This old thing is slandering me, this old man … "
Recalling that it was inappropriate to address himself as an old man in front of the Old Forefather, he quickly corrected himself, "How far has this fellow pushed me now? How can I be such a person? This Sun Chengfeng is being unreasonable, he's a bastard. Please punish him according to his house's rules, Old Forefather! "
Sun Chengfeng was enraged as he sprung up. "Lan Wuxin, you've become a heartless and despicable ruffian ever since you became an official. How dare you punish me according to my house's rules! Has being an official turned your heart black? No wonder people say that those who are righteous are mostly those who butcher dogs and those who are unfaithful are mostly scholars! Lan Wuxin, you've studied too much and turned your heart black. You're a sesame rice ball, your heart is all black! "
"You're the one with a black heart. You're the sesame rice ball, your whole family is sesame rice balls … Hmm, I'm not talking about you!"
Lan Wuxin was infuriated, almost spouting nonsense. "Are you f * cking reasonable? Your father will enter the palace now. You old bastard, just you wait! When your father finds the core of siderite, I won't speak to you for three years! "
In front of their Old Forefather, both of them felt like they had turned into children. Even their attitudes had changed; they had even said things like 'your father, old bastard, won't speak to you for three years'.
It was as if two children were fighting, and one of them was swearing, "I will never play with you again …"
Sun Chengfeng said with a flushed face, "It's fine if you don't speak to this old man. Go to the palace first, remember to bring that thing back."
Lan Wuxin slapped the table and stood up, saying, "I'll go then!"
With a huff of his beard and a flick of his sleeves, he turned to leave, slamming the door with a loud bang.
Yun Yang sighed and said, "Oh, Chengfeng, this is really too much. You shouldn't have used the power of will from the imperial jade seal and the siderite is the royal treasure, the foundation of the Empire of Ziyou. It can't simply be shown to others! Lan Wuxin, as Ziyou's official, is asking for the royal treasure … This is really inappropriate. Chengfeng, you've been too forceful just now! We've been brothers for so many years, there mustn't be any cracks. You're still young, you don't know how precious the bond between brothers is … "
"Don't worry, Old Forefather, it won't happen!"
Sun Chengfeng, who had been called young, held his head high and said, "If he can't even do this well, I'll cut off all ties with him! If I don't care about Old Forefather's matter, what else is worth risking my life for? If I don't do this well, how can I go down to meet my forefather when I'm a hundred years old? I'll be scolded to death even if I die. "
Yun Yang smiled and said, "That's possible. Da Mao … let's not talk about it. It's not a good habit to speak ill of a brother behind his back!"
Sun Chengfeng laughed as well.
Old Forefather, you haven't said anything yet?
That night, the security at Chancellor Lan's residence was suddenly tighter than usual.
His Majesty the emperor had suddenly arrived!
It was not the first time that His Majesty had come to the Residence of Lan personally, but it was truly the first time that he had come not for Chancellor Lan Wuxin but for another person's matter!
The purpose of His Majesty's trip was to visit Elder Yun.
It was Yun Yang's first time meeting His Majesty the Empire of Ziyou's emperor.
This emperor of an empire had a majestic gait, muscular physique, rosy cheeks, and spirited eyes. He naturally possessed the aura of a monarch who had descended upon the world.
However, the slightly sinister aquiline nose and overly sharp eyes made Yun Yang feel that His Majesty the emperor was not an easy person to get along with.
He should be someone who was more indifferent and paranoid.
It would not be an easy task to work under such a monarch.
Other than having strong control, such a person's desire to control was equally strong. He would not allow anything to be out of his control.
Looking at Lan Wuxin's frail appearance that did not match his age and his hunched back, Yun Yang could imagine the hardships of the officials under this overbearing monarch.
"This must be Elder Yun." His Majesty the emperor was very friendly. He laughed when he saw Yun Yang, extremely friendly.
"Greetings, Your Majesty." Yun Yang bowed slightly and straightened himself.
With his current disguise, there was no need for him to kneel before His Majesty the emperor; a slight bow was already giving the other party face.
"Elder Yun need not be so courteous. I'm only here to see Old Forefather, there's nothing else. "His Majesty the emperor was candid and magnanimous, as if he was approachable and courteous.
Of course, this was not in Yun Yang's eyes. To Yun Yang, being approachable and courteous was never a compliment! It was a way to entice people to work themselves to death.
Under Lan Wuxin's hospitality, His Majesty the emperor sat down. His casual sitting posture gave off a very relaxed and homey vibe, showing that he did not treat Yun Yang as an outsider at all.
However, once he came in and sat down on the main seat, he had already seen through all the pretense. Yun Yang could not help but feel that his evaluation of this man had gone down a notch.
His Majesty the emperor spoke as if he was really here to take a look. After a long string of nonsensical pleasantries, he indicated that he was leaving. At the same time, he invited Yun Yang to take a look at the palace when he was free.
Yun Yang agreed with a smile.
He was rather wary of the old eunuch who had always been following the emperor. This old eunuch looked rather senile with white hair. Even his body was hunched and his face was frail, as if he could die of old age at any time.
However, Yun Yang could sense a lethal threat from this old man.
He must be a superb expert, one who was above the peak realm and had already reached the heaven realm!
Yun Yang was deep in thought.
