"Grandmother!"

Chu Yi happened to see the scene where Fengyang fell from the grand teacher's chair, and exclaimed, and the expression of the normally elegant, calm and calm young man showed a rare move.

He stepped forward in three steps at a time, quickly caught Feng Yang's falling body with sharp eyesight, and supported her firmly with his strong arms.

The emperor, who was in deep thought, came back to his senses, and saw Feng Yang lying in Chu Yi's arms profusely with sweat, his eyes closed, motionless.

Her face was so pale that there was no blood at all, a little bean-sized sweat rolled down from the corner of her forehead, and she clenched her teeth tightly.

The gray-haired old woman usually looked hale and hearty, but now she was hugged by the young man with ease, and against his slender figure, she looked so thin and weak.

"Auntie! Auntie!" the emperor called out twice.

But Fengyang closed her eyes tightly and didn't respond at all. She looked weak and dying in a coma.

The emperor's gray brows were deeply frowned, and he hurriedly said loudly: "Come on, hurry up, Imperial Physician Xuan."

The great eunuch Zhao Rang also heard the movement from outside, and he was about to take the order to retreat when he heard Chu Yi say again: "Go and bring Miss Gu into the palace."

The emperor nodded hastily, a gleam of light flashed in his flustered eyes, "Yes, yes, go and fetch Yan Fei!"

Compared with those imperial physicians, Gu Yanfei must have more methods.

Zhao Rang hurriedly retreated. On the one hand, he asked the servant to announce the imperial physician, and on the other hand, he went out of the palace to pick up Gu's man himself.

This time, when Gu Yanfei rushed to the South Study Room as quickly as possible, about half an hour passed.

"Second Miss Gu, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess is inside."

"The person has been in a coma for half an hour."

"Several imperial physicians from the imperial hospital have also consulted with His Highness, but they can't see what the disease is."

"..."

Gu Yanfei was led by a middle-aged servant for a while, and Feng Yang was lying on a beauty couch, still unconscious, surrounded by the emperor, Chu Yi and the imperial physicians.

Gu Yanfei's arrival made the imperial physicians secretly relieved, and the imperial physicians who were sweating were quickly invited out.

In a hurry, Gu Yanfei was not in a hurry to salute the emperor, and went to check Fengyang first.

She sat down on a stool next to the beauty's couch, stretched out three fingers and rested lightly on Feng Yang's wrist, and diagnosed her pulse, her eyes were half down.

After three breaths, Gu Yanfei withdrew his hand and only sighed slightly, the expression on his face mixed with comprehension and helplessness.

"I'll give her a needle."

As Gu Yanfei said, he took out the needle bag, burned the silver needle with a candle, and began to inject needles for Fengyang.

The first needle is at Renzhong Point, the second needle is at Jingming Point, and the third needle...

Seven silver needles sealed Fengyang's seven orifices, and finally a talisman was pasted on the Tianling Gai.

The whole process was only a short cup of tea, and even the emperor didn't dare to disturb him, he just watched quietly from the side, frowning.

Soon, Fengyang's face recovered a little color, his originally weak breathing became steady, and his chest heaved and heaved.

Even people who don't know medical skills can see that Fengyang's "illness" has stabilized for the time being.

Fengyang's personal nurse and the big palace maid all heaved a sigh of relief, and listened carefully to Gu Yanfei's explanation.

After Gu Yanfei finished speaking, Chu Yi took a few steps forward, held her hand naturally, and pointed the other hand in the direction of the outer room, and the two of them went out from the room together with the emperor, leaving Mammy behind. Take care of the comatose Fengyang with the big palace maid.

The emperor took Chu Yi and Gu Yanfei out of the South Study Room and went to the Nuan Pavilion on the east side.

Through the window lattices inlaid with glass, it can be seen that the clouds in the sky are thicker, and even the sky is a little darker. It seems that the whole palace is filled with a dignified atmosphere.

After arriving at Dongnuan Pavilion, the emperor couldn't wait to ask: "Yan Fei, how is the condition of Princess Fengyang?"

The unresolved sadness between the emperor's brows.

Chu Yi silently waved his hand, and several servants retreated, including the eunuch Zhao Rang.

In the empty warm pavilion, there were only the three of them.

The house is quiet, the window is opened, the breeze blowing into the house has a little fragrance of flowers, and the sapphire incense burner with kylin pattern in the corner is emitting faint green smoke.

Gu Yanfei stared at the worried emperor in front of him, and slowly said: "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Great Princess, this is not a disease, it is the end of her lifespan."

"..." The emperor's thin body trembled, and he staggered to support the small square coffee table next to him, stabilizing his body.

The emperor looked at Chu Yi eagerly, and Chu Yi nodded slightly. He had heard Gu Yanfei mention this matter.

The emperor slowly sat down while supporting the tea table, a bitter taste spread from his mouth until it spread to his heart.

Feng Yang was already sixty-eight years old, nearly seventy years old, and even older than the late emperor. It was not a sudden event that his lifespan would be exhausted, the emperor was already mentally prepared.

but……

The emperor rubbed his eyebrows, remembering the scene where Fengyang fainted just now, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Yan Fei, why did she suddenly faint today?"

"Is it sick?"

After asking the question, the emperor himself immediately vetoed it: "No, it's not illness."

If she was sick, Gu Yanfei had just checked Fengyang's pulse and administered an injection. The next step would be to talk about Fengyang's illness and the plan for her diagnosis and treatment, instead of a simple sentence: longevity is approaching.

If Fengyang was free from disease and went to bed at the end of her life, she should have passed away peacefully in her dream. Why is she in such pain now, as if she is suffering from bone erosion? !

The emperor's expression became serious.

Gu Yanfei glanced in the direction where Fengyang was, and said: "Your Highness's soul is imprisoned, and after death, it will be dissipated, unable to enter reincarnation. I just found out that His Highness's soul has been damaged when I checked His pulse..." Feng Sun's time is numbered.

"What?" The emperor blurted out in disbelief, his face was pale, his frail body swayed again, and he was on the verge of falling.

Obviously, Gu Yanfei's words made him suffer a huge blow.

The emperor murmured to himself in dismay: "The soul is scattered, and I can't enter the reincarnation..."

Being born as a human being is probably the cruelest ending, which means that a person has no afterlife, this life is the end, and there is nothing to look forward to.

The temperature suddenly dropped sharply, and the air was as cold as autumn frost.

"Your Majesty, I once asked Your Highness why this happened, but she refused to tell." While Gu Yanfei was speaking, he felt his cold fingertips warm, and Chu Yi's slender fingers hooked hers.

The emperor sat there in a daze, eyes lowered, silent for a long time, his body trembling and bent.

After a long silence, he raised his head, his eyes were bloodshot, and said hoarsely, "I might know."

The emperor rubbed the center of his brows wearily, motioning for the two to sit down.

Chu Yi took Gu Yanfei's hand and led her to sit by the east window, gently stroking her black hair and the back of her neck with his right hand, took the teacup, tested the temperature of the tea before handing it to her .

Gu Yanfei smiled at him, the smile was shallow, and even the two willow eyebrows rippled softly.

The emperor calmed down, and when he looked up, he happened to see the scene of the two children looking at each other and smiling. His heart felt warm, his whole body was refreshed, and the exhaustion and powerlessness in his heart dissipated a little.

The emperor coughed twice, cleared his throat, and asked sternly, "Yan Fei, can you possibly see when the soul of the imperial aunt was damaged?"

"About twenty years." Gu Yanfei roughly estimated, "I can't judge the exact date."

The emperor grabbed the armrest of the chair with one hand, his eyes widened, and the wrinkles between his brows seemed to have deepened. He nodded heavily and said, "That's probably right."

twenty years ago? Chu Yi's handsome face showed a pensive look, and he handed the plate of candied fruit next to Gu Yanfei to Gu Yanfei.

Gu Yanfei picked up a candied crabapple and put it in her mouth.

The emperor straightened out his thoughts, and recounted this long-standing past event: "This happened 21 years ago. At that time, Emperor Taizu had just passed away, and the late emperor had not officially ascended the throne..."

"After seventy-seven and forty-nine days, the late emperor, the imperial aunt, and the ministers escorted the coffin of Taizu to the imperial mausoleum for burial."

"That night, everyone spent the night in the palace near the imperial mausoleum. The late emperor kept vigil at the imperial mausoleum and prepared for the next day's ceremony. Who would have thought that in the middle of the night, the late emperor led thousands of guards from the imperial army to surround the palace and forced the emperor's aunt to hand over the " Taizu Handbook."

Having said that, the emperor paused for a moment, his eyes became darker, he clenched his teeth tightly, and the lines of his entire face tightened accordingly.

Knowing his father Mo Ruozi, Chu Yi immediately saw some clues from the subtle change in the emperor's expression, and asked keenly: "Father, is there any hidden secret in this matter?"

Many people have heard that the late emperor forced Fengyang to hand over the "Taizu's Handbook" after the death of Taizu, and it ended up being nothing, but that's all.

The emperor smiled wryly, nodded slightly, and then talked about the unknown inside story behind this incident:

"Back then, the first emperor wanted the life of the emperor's aunt not only for the "Letter of the Taizu", but also for the life of the emperor's aunt! But he never thought that the emperor's aunt had already prepared, and the Shangyang army of the emperor's aunt's personal guards had long been on standby and killed those government officials. Army vanguard."

"This night, the palace is stained with blood."

"The emperor's aunt led the troops straight to the imperial mausoleum, and pointed a long knife at the late emperor in front of Taizu's coffin..."

Hearing this, Gu Yanfei stared slightly, almost guessing the ending.

After all, Fengyang was not cruel enough, if she was cruel enough to kill the first emperor, why would she be here today.

The emperor went on to say: "The first emperor and several ministers at that time begged the emperor's aunt both softly and hard. Internal and external troubles, civil strife in Yizhou, Xirong sent a large army to raid Liangzhou, and bandits in the Northeast were infested, and the Nanyue people were even more eye-catching... At that time, if there was a battle for the throne in the Dajing royal family, then Dajing would be in danger."

"The late emperor knelt in front of Taizu's coffin and swore that he would never kill the emperor's aunt again in this life. If he violated his intention, his soul would be imprisoned forever. After death, his soul would be scattered and he would never be reborn."

"After the late emperor swore a poisonous oath, he asked the emperor's aunt for the "Taizu Handbook", and kept saying that if the emperor's aunt hadn't hidden the manuscript, he wouldn't want to go astray, accusing the emperor's aunt of forcing him..."

"For the great view of the country, and for the sake of Taizu's spirit in the sky, the imperial aunt did not want to fight with the late emperor, and made the same oath in front of Taizu's spirit, ensuring that the "Taizu's Handbook" is not in her hands."

The emperor sighed deeply, his voice became hoarse as if it had been honed by sand and stones, "When I hurried to the imperial mausoleum, I only heard the oath of the emperor's aunt, and didn't pay much attention to it. After all, "The Handbook of Taizu" It is true that it is not in the hands of the emperor's aunt, which means that the emperor's aunt cannot violate the oath, and this oath is just for the late emperor to ask for peace of mind, lest he always suspect that the emperor's aunt is hiding the letter in her hand."

Until today, when Gu Yanfei talked about the three points of soul imprisonment, soul flying away, and not being able to enter reincarnation after death, the emperor thought of this past event that was almost forgotten 21 years ago.

The emperor's intuition told him that this should not be a coincidence.

The son did not speak of his father's faults, but even if the emperor had any admiration for the first emperor, it has long been worn out in the past few decades.

The first emperor was neither a qualified father and younger brother, nor a qualified emperor.

Twenty-one years ago, this so-called "oath" should have been a last move left by the late emperor when he failed to kill Fengyang, and because Fengyang was concerned about the overall situation, he fell into the trick set by the late emperor.

The emperor closed his eyes, scratched the armrest of the chair with one hand, his palm was wet with cold sweat, and asked, "Yan Fei, do you think this matter is related to the 'illness' of the imperial aunt?"

His eyes were complicated, even though he was 80% sure in his heart, he still hoped to get a clear answer from Gu Yanfei.

Gu Yanfei nodded slightly.

Swearing is similar to the spirit of speech. Ordinary people will not have the effect of spirit of speech if they swear casually, but if someone who is proficient in Taoism practices it when Fengyang swears, then her oath at that time is no longer ordinary words, and can even become a curse.

The oath that Fengyang made twenty-one years ago was taken out of context and turned into a curse. It was tightly wrapped around Fengyang's soul like a chain, imprisoning and damaging her soul for a long time. soul.

Gu Yanfei didn't say a word, but the emperor and Chu Yi were both smart people, and they could guess a lot from her eyes.

The air was almost frozen, oppressive and dignified.

The emperor's pale lips moved slightly, his chest heaved violently, his expression was sorrowful, and he even felt righteous indignation towards the late emperor.

He still wanted to say something, when he heard the eunuch Zhao Rang's shrill report from outside: "Your Majesty, King Kang is begging to see you!"

The moment the emperor and Chu Yi's father and son's eyes met, they had already understood each other's thoughts, and they both knew why Chu You came here.

"Xuan." The emperor released his right hand, tightened it again, and only uttered this one word.

Soon, Zhao Rang led Chu You in. Chu You was still wearing the previous court uniform, and he was dressed in a big red leather uniform, which made him look very energetic.

Chu You's deep and sharp eyes swept across Gu Yanfei and Chu Yi, and finally fell on the emperor who was sitting on a high-backed chair. He went straight to the emperor and saluted with fists clasped.

"Brother Huang, my younger brother just heard the news that the imperial aunt of Fengyang is seriously ill, so I came here to visit her specially. My younger brother's concubine Li Shi also has some medical skills, so you want to announce her to the palace to see the imperial aunt as well?"

Chu You stared at the emperor with heavy eyes, and met the emperor's eyes not too far away.
