Entertainment of Spring and Autumn

Chapter 408: Changes in the situation

The capital at this time.

Of course, the guards who captured the assassin found nothing. In fact, many people guessed who it was from the light of the sword. There are many strong swordsmen, but except for Xia Wenxuan, the king of horizontal swords, no one can kill such a casual sword with such a sharp force that all the gods and Buddhas will scatter.

Can they catch Xia Wenxuan? Even if all the elites from the six gates of the Guards and Shadow Guards in the Enshrinement Hall take action together, they may not be able to stop them. Is there any other way besides issuing a wanted warrant?

So far I can't even catch Cang Ming, let alone Xia Wenxuan...

This is what the martial arts experts resent the most to the imperial court.

"The six gates will immediately issue a wanted order... Xia Wenxuan is probably not out of the city yet, we can arrest him first." Xia Houdi said to Yu Qingchen, the leader of the shadow guards who came to deliver the order: "Is your father okay?"

"His Majesty just arrived at the palace before our family came out. I don't know the situation."

"Then I will go to the palace to see my father first."

"Well... Mr. Xiahou is better to catch thieves carefully. His Majesty may not be happy if he enters the palace at this time."

Xiahoudi was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Yes. How is your majesty's condition? I'd like to trouble Eunuch Xiaoyu to find someone to tell Xiahou when he gets back."

Xia Houdi summoned Xuan Zhe and other senior officials of the Six Gates to arrange the action. Yu Qingchen returned to the palace to resume his duties, and met Ji Wuyou on the road.

When Ji Wuyou saw Yu Qingchen, he raised his hands in worry and asked, "I heard that assassins came at night?"

"Yes." Yu Qingchen glanced at him: "Prince Qi wants to enter the palace? The prince cannot enter the palace without being summoned. Prince Qi still invites him back."

The title of king did not go to the fiefdom, but often entered the palace. This was also a very special sight of Ji Qingyuan's reign. What he was afraid of was that once the prince left the capital, he didn't know which sect he would hang out with. He might as well act out a happy and loving father and son. But this drama of fatherly kindness and filial piety was also poorly performed. They were not allowed to enter the palace without being summoned. Many princes could only enter the palace once a year during the annual banquet...

In contrast, Xia Houdi often entered the palace because of her position as an important minister, but she also abided by the rules and never entered the inner palace, only where matters were discussed.

Ji Wuyou said very worriedly: "My father is already old. I wonder if he was frightened this time. I am really worried." After saying that, he reached out and handed Yu Qingchen a jade stone quietly: "My father-in-law, please be considerate of me. Filial piety..."

The jade was quietly hidden in the rainy morning. It was normal for the princes to try their best to perform well in front of Ji Qingyuan, so they quietly revealed: "Your Majesty's hands and feet are a little numb, it doesn't seem like a big problem. King Qi can try to visit and offer some supplies."

Ji Wuyou's eyes flashed with a strange light and he thanked, "Thank you, father-in-law."

Seeing Yu leave early in the morning, Ji Wuyou frowned and said to himself: "Just a little numb?"

After thinking for a while, he summoned his personal guards and whispered: "Let the envoy from Yizhou do the work..."

…

Ji Qingyuan was helped to the palace in a bad mood, with an imperial doctor checking her pulse.

The imperial doctor examined him for a long time, with a very strange look on his face, as if he was unable to speak, and said helplessly and cautiously: "Your Majesty was frightened and had a stroke. Fortunately, he has practiced spiritual practice, so that he did not have an immediate attack. He must take good care of himself..."

"That's nonsense!" Ji Qing was furious: "When did you ever hear that a haunting warrior can suffer a stroke? Do you think I'm a weak scholar?"

The imperial doctor was extremely embarrassed: "The diagnosis is indeed true...how about letting the medical sage come and take a look?"

"Everything needs to be done by medical saints. What's the use of raising quack doctors like you!" Ji Qingyuan was furious and wanted to kick him. Unfortunately, his hands and feet were paralyzed and weak. He failed to hit the person and almost fell down. Eunuch Li hurriedly supported him and comforted him: "Your Majesty, it is better to calm down. Being angry is not good for your illness."

Ji Qingyuan said angrily: "Who can tell me what Xia Wenxuan is here for!"

No one can answer. The little eunuch who led the way had already been casually chopped into pieces by Xia Wenxuan.

Only Eunuch Li knew it well. Who told you to show off how beautiful your concubine is? Who would you blame for attracting other people's old suitors? Of course he wouldn't tell Ji Qingyuan, he just said: "Xia Wenxuan is used to behaving badly, maybe it's just a show of force..."

Ji Qingyuan was about to say something when suddenly an internal guard rushed in from outside and reported hurriedly: "Your Majesty, the governor of Yizhou sent his personal guards to report urgently. The Natural Gate attempted an assassination and the governor was seriously injured..."

"Bastard!" Ji Qingyuan was shocked and angry, and reflexively wanted to slap the table, but found that his arm was numb, and then spread all over his body. It was only slightly numb at first, but now he completely lost any feeling.

Dark fragrance powder, the effect is worse than expected. According to records, being frightened once is enough to paralyze a person, but Ji Qingyuan was frightened and angered repeatedly tonight, and this time he truly had a full attack.

If you have to say who has greater influence, this pot should be from Natural Gate? After all, Xia Wenxuan did not cause any consequences, but Leng Zhu's behavior was no different from treason, and no emperor could endure it.

The Demon Sect shows off its martial arts and the righteous way shows off its power. Why don't these people in the martial arts just die honestly?

Ji Qingyuan, who was unconscious all over, could no longer stand and fell straight back. Eunuch Li hugged him and said in a voiceless voice: "Physician, hurry up and take a look!"

The imperial doctor carefully inspected it for a long time and said with a mournful face: "Your Majesty has been repeatedly frightened and angry, and his heart is burning with anger. This time he really suffered a stroke..."

All the shadow guards hidden in the house appeared involuntarily. Everyone, including Eunuch Li, looked at each other with strange expressions, as if they had swallowed a dozen rotten duck eggs.

Ji Qingyuan has many things to do, and his cultivation is indeed not very strong. However, he has been a warrior since he was a child. He can easily strengthen his muscles and strengthen his bones. The Emperor's Dragon Qi is very majestic. Are you telling me that he will be paralyzed by a stroke? Isn't it funny...

Liu Wanxi came in a hurry at this moment, quickly understood the situation, and issued an order decisively: "Stop the news and kill anyone who leaks it! Eunuch Li, go and notify the people in Yaowang Valley and ask the medical saint to go to Beijing as quickly as possible!"

Ji Qingyuan spoke with difficulty: "According to the imperial concubine's words..."

Seeing that Ji Qingyuan could still speak, the chaotic dormitory finally felt a little calmer. Being able to still speak means that he can still give orders. If the situation is good, he can even be cured and continue to be his emperor. In the worst case, he can be established as a prince and pass the throne smoothly.

Speaking of which, Ji Qingyuan, the emperor, has made many shadow guards unable to complain. He has been emperor for twenty-three years and has not even shown his intention to establish a prince. This greed for power has reached a certain level.

People have different thoughts at this time, and the position of the emperor... At such times, it is the most exciting.

But Liu Wanxi, who was usually soft and frail, could not be seen to be very calm and decisive. She immediately ordered to block the news, which made many people with thoughts unable to act. Only Eunuch Li was ordered to inform Yaowang Valley. He and Liu Wanxi exchanged glances and flew out understandingly. The first thing he did was not to inform Yaowang Valley, but to go to the capital branch of Xingyue Sect. Go straight to the Star Array.

…

Xue Mu received an urgent report from the guards of the Xingluo Formation and hurried to talk to Eunuch Li. The first words he heard were Eunuch Li's anxious words: "Manager, Ji Qingyuan is paralyzed! What should we do?"

Xue Mu felt a little weird after hearing this. Didn't you give the medicine? Isn’t it something that should have been prepared in advance? What's going on with this sudden, anxious feeling?

"Don't panic, speak slowly. What frightened him?"

"Xia Wen... Huh? How did the manager know that Ji Qing was frightened?"

"you do not know?"

"I do not know!"

Xue Mu suddenly clenched his fists, and after a long while he suddenly laughed: "I don't know, good thing, good thing."

"In charge of this..."

"We must save Ji Qingyuan's life. He is paralyzed and gives orders, and you have to pass them down. How can we work together to control them? You people in the palace are much better than me."

"Understood. But this is only a temporary solution. What happens next?"

"I'll go to the capital to talk about the details..."

Zhuo Qingqing looked solemn: "Young Master is going to Beijing? But this poison is..."

"Someone poisoned me, and I didn't know it!" Xue Mu looked sarcastic: "It's such a familiar sense of sight... It's not that easy to want me, Xue Mu, to take the blame!"

"Is it the plague man?"

"Whether it is or not... Anyway, as soon as Ji Qingyuan lies down, the capital will immediately become the focus of the world. In this storm, I, Xue Mu, cannot be missing."
