I have a volume of human scriptures

Chapter 229 Severe disease in the capital, the first time I saw the national teacher

Yu Chen couldn't quite understand this.

Judging from the rumors and Langqing's revolving lantern, it is said that the seventh prince, King Rende, suffered from a serious illness and his mental strength was weakened, so he withdrew from the battle for the heir apparent and came to Qingjue City, Youzhou to be an idle prince.

But at this moment, he looked at it with the eyes of the sky, and found that there was nothing wrong with the other party's heart or other internal organs!

According to the standards of ordinary people, he is very healthy, with a lively body.

What's the matter?
Yu Chen didn't understand.

But he stopped thinking about it.

Since you have a question, then... ask!
Prince Rende's Mansion, a restaurant.

It was dusk, it was dark outside the window, and the bright candle light illuminated the whole room.The window is slightly opened, and on the window sill is a smoky hollow incense burner with animal heads.In the middle of the room, on the big round table, there are delicious wines and food, making people mouth watering.

Different from Yu Chen's imagination, the banquet that King Rende said was not a big banquet full of guests, but a private gathering with only the two of them.

After serving the dishes, King Rende retreated the last waiter, closed the door tightly, and said with a smile: "I wanted to have a big banquet and invite the best musicians and dancers in Qingjue to cheer for the husband, but I thought that the husband would not If you like that kind of occasion, everything will be kept simple.”

Yu Chen raised his eyebrows: "How does Your Highness know?"

King Rende smiled: "Mr. has never mentioned his name until now, and even Mr. himself is just a puppet. Since he doesn't want to show his real body, he naturally doesn't like the excitement."

Yu Chen narrowed his eyes.

This King Rende has seen through the art of paper men and paper horses?
"Sir, eat food and drink." King Rende made another gesture of invitation.

The latter perfunctorily picked up a chopstick, put it down, and didn't bother to put on a show, and asked, "Your Highness, are you alright?"

After the words fell, King Rende froze immediately.

There was a look of surprise in his eyes.

But it wasn't the panic of being seen through, but rather that Yu Chen didn't expect to ask so directly.

Yu Chen spread his hands.

Anyway, he is a paper man at the moment, so he has no scruples and can ask whatever he wants.

After a long time, King Rende smiled wryly, nodded, and admitted.

Now, it was Yu Chen's turn to be confused again.

"His Royal Highness is free from illness and disaster, so the rumors that he withdrew from the seizure of the heirloom is also a lie?"

Since he is really not sick, why did he suddenly withdraw from the prince dispute?
"No, the illness is fake, but it is real to withdraw from the imperial concubine." King Rende shook his head, "In other words, Xiao Wang pretended to be sick and came to Youzhou just to withdraw from the imperial concubine."

Right now, Yu Chen's mind was full of question marks, and he blurted out, "Why?"

King Rende didn't answer him, but asked instead: "Sir, have you been to the present capital?"

Yu Chen shook his head: "No, but I'm about to go."

"What kind of place is the capital in Mister's eyes?" King Rende asked again.

"An inch of land and an inch of gold? Prosperity and wealth? High-ranking officials? At the feet of the emperor?"

"It used to be, but now, it's not." King Rende shook his head,

"—The capital city is sick. It's not Xiao Wang who is suffering from a serious disease, but the thousand-year-old city."

Yu Chen frowned.

But King Rende didn't say any more, and changed the topic: "So Xiao Wang gave up taking the heir, and came to this land of Youzhou, wanting to go to sea to find medicine and cure diseases."

Yu Chen didn't understand why.

King Rende didn't want to continue talking.

Just like Yu Chen didn't want to reveal his identity.

But from these words, Yu Chen learned one thing, King Rende is going to sea.

He wanted this Youzhou fiefdom just to go to sea.

And overseas, although Yu Chen didn't know why, he had heard a little about it in these years.

Let's talk about that overseas land, there are many immortal families, and the world is full of blessings. Some people open the sky with swords, and some people soar up in the daytime. It's amazing!
"Then I wish your Highness smooth sailing and a safe return." Yu Chen cupped his hands.

"Thank you sir." King Rende held up his wine glass, touched Yu Chen, and suddenly said: "By the way, Xiao Wang is not talented, but he has also stayed in the capital for more than [-] years. Since sir wants to go to the capital , it’s better to listen to Xiao Wang.”

Yu Chen nodded: "Your Highness, please tell me."

King Rende's face became serious, he shook his head slowly, and said three words, "——Don't go."

"Xiao Wang's suggestion for the capital is the only one - don't go."

King Rende looked into Yu Chen's eyes quite seriously.

Yu Chen laughed, "Your Highness, I appreciate your kindness. But when I was in my mother's womb, the fortune teller pointed to my mother's belly and said—this child will grow up in the future, so I can't persuade you."

King Rende was taken aback for a moment, but also laughed, and said no more.

The two ate meat and drank until late at night when Yu Chen left with King Rende's "thank you gift".

In the brightly lit room, King Rende's slightly drunk face immediately returned to normal after Yu Chen left.

"My stupid brother, I can't even tell that this king is pretending to be sick, and he still wants to sit on the throne." King Rende sighed in disappointment, "It's a pity that Lang Qing and his more than 20 brothers... that's all Forget it, Xuan Jing."

Following his call, a figure slowly walked out of the darkness.

King Rende continued: "Double the pensions of Lang Qing and others, and let them go. Their deaths are too unworthy."

"Yes!" The black shadow known as Xuan Jing nodded.

Then, looking at the door, he suddenly said: "Your Highness, that person knows too much."

Its meaning is self-evident.

"It's okay."

King Rende shook his head,

"Although the king's illness is fake, but he has sent life-saving medicines for the king all the way. This good deed is a great kindness regardless of the deeds. What's more, these trivial details are no longer important. What matters now, Only by going overseas to seek the holy law can we cure the persistent illness in the capital."

After a pause, he sighed again, "I just feel sorry for such a character, but it is a pity that such a person has to go to that capital city, to that terminally ill place at such a time."

Sombra stopped talking.

Originally, he wanted to silence Yu Chen.

But King Rende said no need.

Naturally, he won't make any more moves.

In addition, he didn't think that guy could live in peace after going to the capital.

Although, he doesn't know what's going on in the capital.

But he understands that there are big problems and big terrors in the capital right now.

——It is enough to make King Rende, who is almost appointed as the crown prince, pretend to be sick and leave Beijing to travel overseas.

The paper man and paper horse returned to Yu Chen's side only after making sure that there was no tail following them.

Brought a thank you gift from King Intoku.

Some gold and silver jewellery, Lingzhu rare treasures, and a doorman's token.

——According to King Rende, since Yu Chen is going to the capital, his token is still somewhat useful there.

But right now, Yu Chen is not in the mood to care about this at all.

He still feels incredible to this day.

King Intoku... isn't sick?
Is he just pretending to be sick so as to stay away from the capital?
What is it that is enough to make a prosperous prince give up the crown prince?

And what is the evil disease in the capital he mentioned?
Did he also notice Zhan Tiansi's conspiracy?

If this is the case, shouldn't he join hands with Prime Minister Song to deal with the national teacher?
What does it mean to go overseas to find medicine?
I don't understand.

Ask Wen Sheng, the old man Wen Sheng can't guess.

It is only said that Zhou Xiu has been like this since she was a child, half-spoken and has her own ideas, but there is only one thing, never aiming at the target.

That is to say, there must be some reason why he pretended to be sick, gave up taking the throne, and prepared to go to sea.

The old man Wensheng didn't know what the reason was, so he could only tell Yu Chen to be careful when he arrived in the capital.

Silent all night.

The next morning, Yu Chen got up, walked around the city with Shitou, drank a bowl of steaming porridge, and planned to leave.

But before he left, he saw many people gathered at the port.

Yu Chen seemed the same, and took a stone over to have a look.

I saw a dozen or so huge sailing ships docked by the sea like shadows. On these huge ships, the flag belonging to the Great Xia was waving towards the wind.

And the surrounding people, who were watching, stopped one after another, looking at the dozen or so ships, clasped their hands together, as if they were praying.

Yu Chen casually asked someone, and found out that the boat was King Rende of Youzhou, and he was going to go overseas to seek medicine for his heart disease.

Didn’t you say it before, although Rende Wang Zhouxiu has only been in Qingjue City for a few days, he is quite popular, so when he left, many people came to see him off, and sincerely wished this young prince to find the elixir, Heal ills.

But only Yu Chen knew.

King Intoku is not sick.

The medicine he went to sea to seek was not to save himself.

But there was nothing to talk about, so after the dozen or so ships set sail, Yu Chen also found a remote corner, boarded the Nine Nether Ghost Chariot, and headed towards the capital.

In a blink of an eye, more than a month passed.

Yu Chen drove the Nine Nether Ghost Chariot, and finally saw the majestic city wall forming a continuous shadow on the horizon ahead, as if blackening the horizon that connects the sky and the earth.

Even though they are still far away, the terrifying oppressive force is like the sky is collapsing, making people daunting!
Just looking at it from afar, Yu Chen was genuinely shocked!
It is like a sleeping terrifying beast, dormant in the hinterland of the vast plain, as if it can swallow the world when it opens its eyes!
——The capital!
This is the most prosperous and supreme center of Great Xia Zhongzhou, at the foot of the world, a city of extreme human prosperity, a place where three mountains and nine veins converge!

Yu Chen and Shitou got off the Nine Nether Ghost Chariot ten miles away from the south city gate, and led Shitou on foot.

——According to the old man Wensheng, the capital is forbidden, even if there is a god, you have to obediently use your feet to measure this majestic imperial capital.

South City Gate.

The pitch-black city wall looks like the scales of some kind of giant beast, ancient and rough, and the dark, ten-foot-high city gate is solemn and solemn, which makes people awe-inspiring!
This hasn't come to town yet.

Yu Chen looked up.

On the majestic city wall, there were black-armored guards standing like sculptures, and an old man wearing a glazed white vestment and holding a green wood unicorn stick, staring at himself calmly.

Those eyes were cloudy and empty, as if...the merciless God overlooking all living beings.

Let Yu Chen's hair stand on end!
At the same time, Yu Chen easily recognized the identity of the old man Wen Sheng from his revolving memory.

——One of the Three Sages of the Great Xia, Lord of the Tianshan Mountains, Zhan Tiansi Tianjian, Great National Teacher!
　Let's get some monthly tickets, brothers!
