This martial artist just wants to be an official

Chapter 394 Jianhong: Don’t be so nervous

"Ask him what he is doing."

Shangguan's eyes were a little complicated, but his voice was still cold.

The prince gritted his teeth:

"My nephew and Marquis Qinghe may have some misunderstandings, and I would like to ask my aunt to come forward..."

"This is impossible."

Before the prince finished speaking, the cold aunt interrupted directly, her voice getting colder and colder:
"Even though I and him are not at odds with each other, it is difficult for us to see each other again."

This……

The prince was stunned for a moment, and a suspicion flashed in his eyes.

But now that he had spoken, he had nothing more to say.

"Well, my nephew will take his leave first."

The prince smiled bitterly and coughed twice.

……

Outside the palace, the prince's face darkened.

He was worried and couldn't help walking slowly.

"Master Lianhua died recently...there is no one available around him."

He murmured softly, and after taking a few steps, he gritted his teeth as if he had made up his mind:

"I have to find Uncle Wang!"

After arriving at the East Palace, the prince found the young eunuch:

"Go to Prince Qing's Mansion!"

…………

After Lu Yuanzhi killed the second-grade Bodhisattva named Lianhua, his life became leisurely.

In addition to cultivating his cronies, he had nothing to do in the yamen all day long.

These days, the demon sect elder named Ying Xian has done a lot of things following Xian Ling'er.

After all, he is a fourth-grade warrior, so Lu Yuanzhi will not hold him down for too long.

After only about two months, he was promoted to the new Yun Pei.

At this point, he already has two Yunpei under his command.

It is definitely inferior to Ji Gong's five fourth-grade Yunpei except himself.

But after all, he has only been promoted for three months, so it is already very good to have such a foundation.

"Ji Gong, why are you calling me?"

Lu Yuanzhi came to Ji Xuan's sleeping room.

At this time, Lu Yuanzhi was wearing the clothes he wore when he went to court. The purple gown of the Marquis made him look extremely noble.

After more than a month, Ji Xuan saw Lu Yuanzhi again. He saw that Lu Yuanzhi, under the support of his subordinates, already had the majesty of a superior, and a long-lost smile appeared on his face.

"Sit down first."

After Lu Yuanzhi nodded, he slowly sat down opposite Ji Xuan. He was no longer as impetuous as before. When Ji Xuan didn't say anything, he quietly and naturally picked up the tea set in front of Ji Xuan and made tea.

After soaking it, he handed it to Ji Xuan naturally:
"Ji Gong, please have some tea."

"Ah."

Ji Xuan's lips curled up slightly. He was very satisfied with Lu Yuanzhi's detailed changes.

It feels like watching the doll you raised since childhood finally grow up.

"According to reports from palace informants, Jianhong's health is getting worse and worse than before."

Ji Xuan took a sip of tea and slowly placed the cup on the table.

"Oh...huh??"

Lu Yuan was stunned and looked at Ji Xuan in shock.

"My subordinate didn't understand what you meant."

"hehe."

Ji Xuan was not surprised by Lu Yuanzhi's behavior. He slowly looked out the window:
"The real battle for the inheritance will begin in the next two days."

There was a touch of vicissitudes and nostalgia in the voice.

Maybe he was remembering the old friend who wanted to abandon him, or he was recalling the passing of the glorious years.

"I think your Majesty's health is not as good as before, but he's not that fast either..."

Lu Yuanzhi went to court every day these days, so he could naturally see Jianhong's body clearly.

Although he is on the verge of death, he will not go to the west so soon.

"Ho."

Ji Xuan sneered, looking at the white clouds rising suddenly outside the window, his voice was cold:
"Do you know what makes you worse than me now?"

When Lu Yuanzhi heard this, he pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said tentatively:
"The quality of your subordinates?"

"That's right and that's wrong."

Ji Xuan slowly shook his head and pointed at Lu Yuanzhi's eyes:
"There's enough to see here."

"Where do my subordinates have time to establish an intelligence organization?"

The corner of Lu Yuanzhi's mouth twitched. He understood what Ji Gong meant, but it was really not something he could decide.

It’s not just about money, but also energy.

Where does he have the energy to take care of so many things now?

"So what are you doing during this time?"

Ji Xuan's voice suddenly turned cold, and he looked at Lu Yuanzhi:
"I have done my best to help you take the position of deputy commander, but you are the only one who lets you sit idle in the sex room all day long?!"

Swish!
The temperature in the entire room suddenly dropped a few points.

This was the first time Lu Yuanzhi was reprimanded by Ji Xuan.

He was startled and looked towards Ji Xuan's face.

At this time, Ji Xuan's face was as cold as ice.

"Please punish me!"

Lu Yuanzhi no longer hesitated and knelt on the ground with a thud.

From the moment he joined Ji Gong, Lu Yuanzhi never thought about going against Ji Gong.

Especially after the night when he entered the third rank, as long as Ji Gong didn't want his life, he could listen to anything Ji Xuan said without reservation.

These are three views and have nothing to do with character.

"stand up!!"

Ji Xuan scolded:
"There is no reason for Mr. Hou to kneel down with others!!"

"If Duke Ji does not forgive his subordinates, they will not get up."

Lu Yuanzhi simply put his head down, his voice filled with grievance.

"you!"

Ji Xuan saw Lu Yuanzhi acting like a rogue, and his heart softened for no reason. After a long time, he sighed and said:
"Get up, I have something important to tell you."

Lu Yuanzhi raised his head and glanced at Ji Xuan cautiously.

After seeing his gentle expression, he made up his mind and slowly stood up and sat on the chair.

Unexpectedly, Ji Xuan's next words frightened him to the core.

"I won't live much longer."

When Ji Xuan said this, there was no complicated expression on his face.

"You have to grow up faster."

Somehow, Lu Yuanzhi saw the heroic look in Ji Xuan's face.

It is a kind of loneliness, and it makes people feel extremely distressed.

"What are you talking about, Mr. Ji?"

For no reason, Lu Yuanzhi felt a pain in his heart.

Ever since he entered Beijing, Ji Gong had cared for him almost like his biological father.

It is a kind of affection that is upright and pampering without any hiding.

"No need to lie to you."

Ji Xuan's face returned to gentleness, and he seemed to be talking about ordinary things:
"You come here more these two days and communicate more with Gongyang Dare and the others. I have released him from prison for being upright. He is actually a straight-tempered person, but he just has some confusion in his mind. Just keep hammering him if he has nothing to do. ”

Having said this, he poured a pot of tea and said to himself:
"You must know what to do and what not to do in the court. You can touch His Majesty's bottom line, but you must pay attention to the taboos of the Imperial Master. You are also married. There are some things that you should not think about for yourself, but you must always do it for yourself. Think about your wife and children..."

After taking a sip of tea, he continued:
"I have been alone all my life, and I have no scruples in my actions. Oh, by the way, I once had a son, but he died young. I think if he had lived, he would have been...as old as you."

When Ji Xuan said this, his tone was still calm, as if he was talking about someone else's family affairs. He looked at Lu Yuanzhi with soft eyes and said:
"Although Princess Changle is younger than you, she is gentle, sensible and not jealous... So you must hurry up and give birth to a big fat boy..."

He lowered his head and smiled, with a kind smile on his face:
"You might as well give me a hug."

"Ji Gong..."

I don't know when Lu Yuanzhi's eyes were filled with tears, and his voice was choked with sobs.

"Haha, it doesn't have to be like this. Throughout my life, I, Ji Xuan, have been worthy of your Majesty and my people...the only one I'm sorry for is my wife and children. But it doesn't matter. They should see me soon."

Ji Xuan stood up slowly and moved his wrist slightly. He came to Lu Yuanzhi and patted him on the back:

"There is nothing sad for me. My life is not very exciting, but it is enough to face them after death."

Having said this, Ji Xuan's eyes returned to indifference. He looked at Lu Yuanzhi quietly:
"I think there may be changes in the palace in the next two days, so you should pay more attention." "No matter who the final winner is, as long as it has little impact on you, you can just sit back and watch the fight between tigers and tigers."

……

Lu Yuanzhi walked out of Yinwu Hall with a look of despair.

Without saying any more nonsense, he slowly took off and flew towards the mansion.

At this time, his third-level cultivation level was so fast that he flew back home from the Yamen in less than a moment.

……

royal palace.

Jianhong was lying on the dragon bed. With the help of others, he couldn't stop vomiting:
"vomit!"

Obscene things kept pouring out of his mouth.

But I don't know why, my stomach is still so turbulent.

Until finally, he couldn't hold it any longer, turned sideways again, blushed and spat again into the golden basin on the ground.

"what!!!"

The eunuch standing nearby was stunned when he saw this scene, his face turned pale.

"Your Majesty!! What you vomited is blood!!"

"Call the doctor!! Call the doctor quickly!!"

The whole palace was in chaos.

After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Jianhong felt much more relaxed. He took a deep breath, frowned and shouted:
"Why are you panicking! Get me a glass of water!"

"Yes Yes."

The little eunuch's face was pale with fear. He came to the tea table tremblingly and stretched out his hand tremblingly.

Taking the cup from the young eunuch, Jianhong took a sip of water and then slowly lay back on the bed.

He felt better.

"Your Majesty, the imperial doctor is here."

After a while, an old figure came tremblingly to the dragon bed.

Just one glance at Jianhong's face on the bed made the imperial doctor tremble with fear.

"Give."

Jianhong frowned and glanced at the imperial doctor, then slowly stretched out his arm.

Jianhong was stunned for a moment when he saw his arm.

At this moment, his outstretched arms were shaking like a sieve, and he didn't even notice it.

"What's wrong with me?"

Jianhong asked with a frown as he watched the imperial doctor carefully catch his substitute arm.

"Excuse me... Your Majesty, you just suffered from some cold."

The imperial doctor did not dare to say anything more. He lowered his head and looked at the toes of his shoes on the ground.

"absurd!"

Jianhong glared at the imperial doctor fiercely:
"How can I not know if you are suffering from the cold?! If you still don't tell the truth, I will treat you as a crime of deceiving the emperor."

"what!"

The imperial doctor was frightened and trembled. He quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed:
"Your Majesty, I, I dare not say anything!!"

"explain!!"

Jianhong suddenly felt bad, but he suppressed the fear in his heart and looked at the imperial doctor.

"Your Majesty, you have been dealing with state affairs for a long time, and you have become sick from overwork without caring about your health. You have been working hard day after day..."

The imperial doctor took courage:

"I am afraid……"

But he still didn't dare to speak out.

Jianhong took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:

"Just tell me how much time I have left."

"Less than a month..."

The imperial doctor tried his best to talk as much as possible.

Jianhong's eyes suddenly froze.

After a long time, he lay weakly back on the bed.

After thinking for a long time, he waved his hand and said:
"You go down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The imperial doctor breathed a subtle sigh of relief, stood up from the ground in a hurry, bowed and walked outside.

After he disappeared into the palace.

Jianhong suddenly opened his eyes and waved to the darkness beside him.

A shadow appeared silently beside his bed.

"kill him."

Jianhong's voice was calm:

"Keep it clean."

"Yes."

When the black shadow disappeared.

Jianhong struggled to hold on to the back of the chair beside the bed and slowly got off the bed.

He walked to the chair and looked out the window calmly.

"Which one is coming, will it be the eldest or the second eldest..."

It didn't take long.

"Your Majesty, the prince wishes to see you."

Hearing this voice, a flash of disappointment flashed across Jianhong's face.

Prince...

Jianhong's eyes flashed with light.

"Xuan."

……

"Father!"

The prince entered the palace with a worried look on his face.

"Are you okay?"

Seeing Jianhong sitting upright on the chair, the prince breathed a sigh of relief, with tears in his eyes.

"hehe."

When Jianhong saw the prince's face, a smile appeared on his face, and his voice was hoarse:

"It's so late, the prince is not sleeping, why are you in my palace?"

"My son has met my father."

The prince first bowed, stood up, came to Jianhong's side, and whispered:
"I heard that the imperial physician came to see the emperor in the middle of the night, and I was anxious... I am sorry to make the emperor laugh."

As he said this, he coughed a few more times, perhaps unable to withstand the cold.

"It doesn't matter."

Jianhong smiled and said:
"My health is fine."

The prince's head was heavy, and the expression on his face could not be seen clearly, but by the candlelight, he could feel that he was relieved:

"Then I will feel relieved."

"However, it's windy in the middle of the night. Where did the prince get the news?"

There was no expression on Jianhong's face, and the meaning in his voice was incomprehensible.

Hearing this, the prince trembled slightly.

"My son... I got the news from Tai Hospital."

Jianhong did not look at the prince, but looked out the window, with an inexplicable light shining in his eyes:
"Haha, it seems that the prince is very concerned about my health."

As soon as these words came out, the prince was frightened.

"Plop" sound.

Kneel directly on the ground.

"Father, son and minister, son and minister are just..."

There was incoherence in his words.

"hehe."

Jianhong just smiled softly, waved his hand gently, and then patted the prince on the back:

"Don't be so nervous."
