Chapter 917 The Edict of Zen
The man moved the brocade box to the emperor: "Your Majesty, might as well try to take a pill and see how it works?"

Ye Yuan was waiting for this sentence.

He unceremoniously took one and put it in his mouth, and raised his eyebrows for a moment.

"It's really extraordinary!"

In the past, the elixirs he took were hard to swallow, not only the taste was unpleasant, but also irritated his throat, making it especially difficult to swallow.

But at the moment, the shape of the food is only about the size of a little finger. Although it has a burnt taste in the mouth, most of it is still sweet.

Such a comparison, just the taste makes people feel good.

The man nodded slowly, and stingily closed the brocade box.

Seeing this, the emperor asked, "How long will it take for this elixir to take effect?"

"Pindao said just now, you have to take it regularly."

"I named you the national teacher, and you will stay by my side from now on, and concentrate on developing medicine for me."

The emperor nodded, no wonder this person is over 200 years old and still wants to eat.

But the expert said: "Since the establishment of the Tiancheng Dynasty, there has never been a national teacher. If the emperor confines the poor, I am afraid that it will make the world dissatisfied."

"Who dares to be dissatisfied?" The emperor snorted, and immediately laughed, "Today is a palace banquet, and I will introduce the national teacher to all the princes and ministers."

The man nodded, got up from the chair, raised his hand and bowed deeply to the emperor.

At that time, all the important ministers of Tiancheng will be present at the palace banquet, including the princes of Tiancheng. If he wants to be completely wiped out, it will really take no effort at all.

The virtuous concubine blessed her body: "Congratulations to the emperor for being helped by an expert!"

The emperor laughed loudly.
-
East Palace.

After Ye Yiheng and Li Yuyan finished drinking tea, the couple took them back to the bedroom.

Mo Chen rushed over: "Your Highness, the situation is not good. There are troops gathering around the capital."

Ye Yiheng asked: "Do you know where the troops are?"

Mo Chen shook his head: "This subordinate has neglected his duty, and we haven't found out who the soldiers are."

A cold expression appeared on Ye Yiheng's brows, and even Mo Chen didn't find out, which can only show that the owner of this soldier and horse is relatively mysterious.

At this time, the porter also hurried over: "Your Highness, someone from the palace said that His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess are invited to the palace for a banquet."

Ye Yiheng and Li Yuyan looked at each other.

It was another gathering of soldiers and horses, and another palace banquet. The two events were by no means a coincidence.

Thinking of this, Ye Yiheng ordered: "Mochen, you take the Dark Guard Department to the elite army camp, and tell Gu's two uncles about the gathering of soldiers and horses. The Dark Guard Department will fully cooperate with the elite soldiers' operations."

Mo Chen clasped his fists: "Yes, Your Highness!"

After ordering Mo Chen and Ling Lang to guard the East Palace, Ye Yiheng and Li Yuyan went back to the bedroom to change clothes before entering the palace.

When the couple arrived at the gate of the palace, many ministers had already gone to the Xiande Hall one after another.

Li Yuye and Ye Jiu walked among them.

Li Yuyan saw them and called out, "Brother and sister-in-law."

Li Yuye and Yejiu stopped when they heard the sound, and when they saw Ye Yiheng bringing Li Yuyan over, they walked aside and waited.

In view of the fact that ministers greeted them one after another, the four simply walked to the open space of the side hall.

Ye Yiheng made sure that no one was approaching him for the time being, and said in a low voice, "Gu has sent Mo Chen to the barracks, didn't my uncle meet you?"

Li Yuye also whispered: "I met you, but today the palace banquet asked me to attend by name and surname, so I came here. Don't worry, Your Highness, it's no problem to leave it to my second brother to gather the miscellaneous soldiers."

Ye Yiheng nodded, it is safe for the elite soldiers to be controlled by Li Yujing.

Li Yujing's strength is not inferior to Li Yuye's, and he thinks he can handle emergencies around the capital well.

They didn't say a few words, and Eunuch Ma walked towards them.

Ye Yiheng and Li Yuye stopped chatting, and Li Yuyan and Ye Jiu chatted about family matters.

Not long after, Eunuch Ma walked up to them and bowed to greet them: "His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness, Prince, Princess Ninth, please go to the main hall as soon as possible, the banquet is about to begin."

Ye Yiheng showed no expression, and said lightly, "Okay."

After saying that, the four of them followed Eunuch Ma to the main hall of Xiande Hall.

The announcement of today's banquet was urgent, so that's the case, all the ministers above the fifth rank in Beijing are here.

When everyone was seated, the emperor brought a man with a beard and gray eyebrows into the hall.

"Greetings to the emperor!" Everyone shouted.

The emperor seemed to be in a good mood, and said with a bright smile, "I have found an expert today and specially appointed him as a national teacher, so I have hosted a banquet to celebrate."

Hearing this, the ministers murmured for a while.

Although the emperor didn't explicitly say that the high-seeking people are for longevity, but this is no secret.

Seeing that there were few supportive voices below, the Emperor Longyan sank.

Ye Yiheng frowned and looked at the so-called expert beside the emperor, but he couldn't see anything.

Li Yuyan lowered his voice: "Is this the person Xianfei found?"

Ye Yiheng said in a voice that only the husband and wife could hear: "Probably yes."

At this time, the Taoist robed man said to the emperor: "From the point of view of the poor, the emperor has to issue an edict, so that it will be convincing."

The emperor nodded, raised his hand and said, "Then go to the imperial study in the apse."

The man in Taoist robes said: "On such an important occasion, the poor Taoist believes that it is safe to have His Royal Highness and several important officials present."

The emperor nodded again, and said loudly: "Prince, the six cabinet ministers will follow me to the imperial study."

The six cabinet ministers looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally made a move.

Ye Yiheng had no choice but to go, Li Yuyan supported his arm, and said to the emperor: "Father, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not feeling well, can I help him and accompany him to the imperial study?"

The emperor nodded sullenly: "Yes."

Everyone entered the royal study.

The moment his footsteps stepped in, Ye Yiheng heard many martial arts masters approaching the imperial study room.

He squeezed Li Yuyan's arm, Li Yuyan understood, and immediately became more vigilant.

The Taoist robed man opened the small brocade box, and gave each of the six cabinet ministers a pill, and when they came to Ye Yiheng, he also gave him one.

Seeing that the master had divided the elixir of life, the emperor thought he was trying to please the prince and the ministers, so he pointed at the ministers and said, "This is the elixir of life made by the master. This time there are only eight pills. I just took one." I feel refreshed immediately, why don’t you take it sooner?”

Hearing that the emperor ate all of it, the ministers looked at each other and ate it apprehensively.

Fortunately, there was no discomfort after eating.

Ye Yiheng reached out to his lips, pretending to eat it.

After the emperor walked to the case, he snorted and said again: "I want to live forever, but I want Tiancheng to be permanent. Don't you want Tiancheng to be stable forever?"

All the ministers said in unison: "I hope the country will last forever!"

"En." The emperor picked up the brush and looked at Ye Yiheng, "Come and help me sharpen the ink, the prince."

Li Yuyan didn't know how skilled that expert was, and wanted Ye Yiheng to be wary of this person, so she said, "Father, let my son come."

"You are filial." The emperor nodded.

Li Yuyan let go of Ye Yiheng's arm, walked to the imperial case, rolled up her sleeves and began to grind ink.

The emperor's pen was stained with ink, and when he was about to write, the Taoist robed man suddenly grabbed Ye Yiheng's throat, and laughed grinningly: "Your Majesty, let's just write a Zen edict."

When the word came out, everyone was shocked.

The emperor was stunned on the spot, and after he realized it, he still couldn't believe it and asked, "What did you say?"

 Thanks to Siqi_Ed (5 photos) for the monthly pass!
  The previous article has been changed, the number of pills Ling Lang put in the brocade box has been changed to eight pills.
