Han: The witchcraft disaster begins, I fight against Emperor Wu of Han

Chapter 71: Tiger poison doesn’t even eat seeds!
Queen Wei lay quietly in front of Liu Che.

The woman in front of him was old, and the years had left too many marks on her. But Liu Che could not remember how many years it had been since he had looked closely at the queen in front of him.

He wanted to see it today, but the other party would never wake up.

He had many female confidants in his life.

There is Chen Ajiao, Madam Li, Madam Wang...even the current Madam Gouyi...

As for Wei Zifu, she was just a singing girl when Liu Che was emperor.

However, her appearance brought him the two great talents of the Han Dynasty in his military and political career, and gave him the foundation to truly expand his territory!

She brought her first born child!
This allowed him to hold up the next successor to the Han Empire in front of his ministers at the age of 29.

Long-lost memories surfaced in his mind, and Liu Che suddenly realized that this woman had always been with him during the days when his imperial career reached its peak.

During that time, she also enjoyed unlimited glory because of her favor.

Because of her, I can announce to all the ministers and the world that a woman who was born a singer can still become the queen of the Han Dynasty!
She witnessed how she strengthened the Han Dynasty step by step!

But now...

She is dead.

Distant memories washed over Liu Che's mind. He pursed his lips, trying to suppress the lingering sadness in his heart.

He had been stroking something in his hand, which was the seal that symbolized the title of "Queen".

At this moment, he obviously had a lot to say, but he couldn't utter a word.

In the end, he could only place the queen's seal in his hand next to Queen Wei.

Then he walked out of the bedroom slowly and dejectedly.

He is the emperor of the Han Dynasty. He will not indulge in sadness because of the departure of a woman. He wants to pursue immortality and expand the territory of the Han Dynasty to the limit visible to the naked eye! He wants to reorganize the government order system of the court and make them become like his own arms, which he can control at will!

He wants his achievements to shine forever like the dazzling stars in the sky!
he……

At this moment, Liu Che clearly wanted to dream of more ambitions.

But when I think about Chang'an now, it is like a den of ghosts!

No matter how many ambitions you have, no matter how glorious your past was, it will all be ruined in an instant!
At this moment, he suddenly felt extremely cold and powerless.

"Am I wrong?"

He murmured to himself in his heart.

But as soon as this thought appeared, he instantly defeated it!
"I...I am not wrong!"

……

at the same time.

Inside the Weiyang Palace, Liu Che frowned, his expression seemed to have gone through a thousand changes just now.

This made Li Shao Weng, who had been paying attention to him, suddenly surprised and suspicious.

"What's wrong again? Does the Penglai Wonderland make Your Majesty uncomfortable this time?"

He looked around, and at this moment the fairy mist was rising, almost covering the hall.

Beside Liu Che, the queen was hidden in the fairy mist and suddenly opened her eyes!

Li Shaoweng looked into his eyes suddenly and was almost startled.

But when he looked again, he found that the queen was still the same as before, drowsy with her eyes closed, continuing to travel in Penglai.

"Something's wrong. Are there too many people? Not enough? Keep increasing the number!"

Li Shao Weng waved his hand, and immediately, the witches around threw more powder up, and with the help of the wind that was already blowing into the hall, it went towards the crowd again.

He also asked the people behind him to burn more sandalwood.

In an instant, the hall was filled with clouds and mist, like a fairyland.

Seeing this, Liu Jing also cooperated... and increased the weight!
At the same time, he deliberately speeded up the time.

……

Almost a month has passed since the Chang'an Incident.

Liu Che experienced all the changes in Chang'an.

The ministers below should reward and confer titles on those who have made contributions in Chang'an!
At the same time, they began to prepare to nominate the next crown prince.

He was a qualified emperor and accepted all the rewards.

But he ignored all the recommendations of his ministers.

He spoke less and less. He felt that his life was fading away faster and he was getting older.

However, he was also paying attention to the most important piece of information—

Liu Ju! His son!
Even though he rebelled and left the city, the ministers below him still tried their best to track him down.

They forced a father to kill his own son!
Finally, on this day, he got news from Liu Ju.

For some reason, Liu Che suddenly had a strong urge to go and take a look.

He was unable to see the queen for the last time.

But he wanted to see the side of this evil boy.

He wanted to know whether this evil boy knew what he had done and what had happened to Chang'an because of him?
I was thinking this...

suddenly.

The intense desire and great emotional fluctuations instantly separated him from the body of "Liu Che".

Before he could react, the next moment.

He only felt a lot of images flashing before his eyes, and he seemed to fly out all of a sudden, crossing an unknown distance, and finally saw... Liu Ju.

Liu Ju at this moment.

He was surrounded by soldiers and trapped in a small thatched house in the wilderness.

At the door were his second and third sons, whom he brought with him on this escape.

"Second brother, go see father, I'll block this place!"

They were obviously two descendants of the royal family, but at this moment they were surrounded and killed like bandits by the runners of the local county government.

Although the royal children had been taught archery and horse riding since childhood, they were only in their teens and were quickly defeated when faced with a siege from many people.

The one who was called the second brother was shot by an arrow just as he retreated to the door of the thatched house!
Although the third son looked small, he was naturally strong and agile when fighting and moving. At the same time, he was very strong and could resist the siege of seven or eight people and kill several of them. However, soon, when he saw the second brother being shot by an arrow, he let out a mournful roar, and the people who besieged him saw the opportunity and immediately stabbed him in the heart!
"Stop! Stop! Stop!"

At this moment, Liu Che looked at this scene with great hatred, but just like before, he could not influence the development of anything at all and could only watch it with his own eyes...

"Haha, I killed this guy!"

"I shot that arrow!"

On the other side, the county government officials shouted excitedly, dividing up this sumptuous feast!
Those who shot or stabbed the enemy in the heart were envied and jealous by those around them, because according to the news from above, if they were caught, they would be made a marquis regardless of whether they were dead or alive!

Although the people around were envious, they soon realized that the greatest "merit" was inside the thatched house!
They rushed forward immediately.

Liu Che also rushed forward.

However, as the door of the thatched house opened, what came into view was...

It is a pair of eyes hanging on the beams, unable to close even after death!
The moment Liu Che looked over, the other party also seemed to be looking at him!

The father and son looked at each other!
boom!
Suddenly...

A fleeting scene immediately appeared in Liu Che's mind. It was the birth of his eldest son. At the age of 29, he held his child high in the eyes of the world, implying that his throne was stable and the succession of the Han Dynasty was orderly.

Before he came of age, he gave him all the love and care!

He didn't want his child to receive so-called disciplinary instruction, so he let him learn according to his own interests and recruit guest teachers!

He gave him all his trust, and for so many years he let him handle the government affairs of Chang'an without asking any questions...

He suddenly remembered that when he was talking with Wei Qing, he had pointed out with great insight that he had fought all his life in order to give the prince a stable country so that he could govern the world and recuperate.

But now...

Why is this happening...

At this moment he felt a sudden pain in his heart. Even though he had grown increasingly disliked this prince over the years, at this moment he saw his son dying in front of him, being forced to death by the people he had sent!

"Tiger poison doesn't even eat its seeds!"

"Your Majesty is more vicious than a tiger!"

The sudden voice was like a sharp sword, stabbing Liu Che's heart.

Liu Che immediately looked back, and saw that Liu Ju's two sons, who had been shot by arrows and fell to the ground, raised their heads and looked in his direction, letting out a sharp roar.

"You're almost dead, but you're still so stubborn..."

The bailiff at the side sneered and stabbed him in the heart with another spear.

But at this moment, Liu Che felt his heart suddenly beating because of these words.

next moment.

The scene in front of him suddenly disappeared, and when he woke up again, he was already in the broken Chang'an.

Liu Che suddenly raised his head and looked at his hands, feeling as if what he had just experienced was just a dream within a dream.

But the prince was completely dead! The huge emotional shock seemed to make him leave this place completely.

But that's it.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

A voice of great surprise came from outside the door.

Liu Che looked back.

But a figure whose face could no longer be seen ran in hurriedly, with an indescribable look of joy on his face, and congratulated:

"Your Majesty, the Magistrate of Hu County sent someone to deliver the news that Crown Prince Liu Ju and his sons Liu Jing and Liu Yuan have all been executed!"

"His body has been taken to Chang'an and will be delivered soon."

"Your Majesty, the disaster in Chang'an has finally been quelled."

Liu Che turned his head suddenly. He could not suppress his excitement when he heard the other party say these words.

But to deliver the news of a son's death so joyfully to a father!
More importantly, he had just seen it himself...

"You probably...are really here to congratulate me, right?"

The sound of each word almost popped out from between teeth.

next moment!
"puff!"

A mouthful of blood that had been trapped in his chest spurted out.

Liu Che felt dizzy and about to faint at any moment.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty..."

There were cries of surprise all around, and in a trance, he saw Huo Guang and Jin Midi...

……

At the same time, Liu Jing felt a huge "dream fluctuation", and the gold color on the lotus gold coin finally faded at that moment.

But in the end, Liu Jing also gained some luck because of the saying "Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs", and now all of it was added up to end Liu Che's final "trip to Penglai".

……

A huge sense of fear and weightlessness slowly enveloped Liu Che.

After the Witchcraft Incident, all the ministers were busy sharing the victory celebration.

Only he, the emperor who had lost his queen and his heir, felt the end of his days.

He felt his life slipping away...

Even at the end, the scene in front of Liu Che flashed by quickly and discontinuously.

He couldn't see anything clearly, he couldn't see anything.

Only the last scene!
He saw himself aging day by day, and finally he was lying in bed, completely unable to move.

I don’t have immortality!

Haven’t you found immortality?
Until this moment, this thought was still in Liu Che's mind.

But before he could continue thinking...

He suddenly had a convulsion!
The future of the Han people...

Where is the future of the Han Dynasty?

To whom should he be handed over, and how should the successor to the Han Dynasty be arranged?

He wanted to continue reading, but...

The scene in front of me gradually distorted, and everything in front of me was like a mirage, slowly shattering.

"No!"

Liu Che waved, wanting to know more...

But after the crown prince hanged himself, he felt that the feeling of being there was completely gone. He tried hard to see clearly, but he couldn't see anything clearly...

"No! No, no!"

Suddenly, perhaps because death was approaching, Liu Che finally woke up.

"No! Nothing happened! This is all fake! Fake!"

"There was no fighting in Chang'an, no rivers of blood, my queen is not dead, and Juer is not dead either!"

"They are not dead! They are not dead! I am not dead either!"

He finally let out the countless roars that had been pent up in his heart!
He clearly remembered everything.

These are the so-called Penglai illusions.

Nothing happened!

Right, right, that didn't happen at all.

What has changed? What has changed!!

The roars in my heart are trying to get to the bottom of things.

Finally, Liu Che was stunned.

That rain...

Yes, it rained in Chang'an that day!
The fundamental change of everything lies in... lies in that rain!

Liu Jing brought me good fortune!
We, the descendants of the Han Dynasty, have been blessed by heaven and have successfully prayed for rain at the God's Terrace.

A blessing from heaven!

Nothing happened!

A huge thought swallowed up Liu Che. At this moment, all his thoughts seemed to recall the child in the Prince's Palace that night in Ganquan Palace.

Bringing good fortune!
Even though the tortoise lives a long life, it still has its end...

……

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, on returning from your journey to Penglai!"

Almost at the same time.

A vague, joyful, contented voice, yet one that seemed to carry a sense of vicissitudes far away from the human world, slowly rose up.

at last.

Inside the hall, the fairy mist was dissipating, and the witch began to create fog...

The journey to Penglai slowly came to an end with Li Shaoweng's repeated "Congratulations".

The first one to wake up was Queen Wei.

Her eyes were hazy and she felt like she had a very bad dream!

The second group to wake up were Huo Guang, Jin Midi and other inner court ministers.

They looked around in horror, but they saw the same expression in the eyes of others.

The most sober person was Liu Ju.

He stood up suddenly and looked at his neck first.

Just now, he only felt a strong sense of suffocation and sadness, which lingered in his heart for a long time.

Even after he woke up, pessimism, resentment and despair filled his mind.

The last person who woke up was... Liu Che!

Swish!
He suddenly opened his eyes.

The first thing he did was to look around.

When he saw that the Queen was still there, Liu Ju was still there, and even everything in front of him was the Penglai journey he had just entered.

For an instant.

How desperate and sad it was before.

What a surprise now!
Just then.

It seemed that when he saw Liu Che waking up, Li Shaoweng was just the same as before.

Laughing:
"Your Majesty, during this trip to Penglai, were you able to see the immortals? Were you able to obtain the wonder of immortality? Are you happy?"

Liu Che looked towards him suddenly.

The other party's voice seemed to remind him of what had just happened, when Chang'an was stained with blood and all the efforts he had made in his life were ruined!
He couldn't even see the future of the Han Dynasty.

For an instant.

The despair, despair, and almost all the negative emotions that had just accumulated in the dream.

All rushing out!

He picked up the bronze object next to him and smashed it at it in an instant!
"What the hell are you doing!"

"Is this really Penglai??!"
