Empress Dowager Empress Dowager

Chapter 253
Jin Wuhuan was busy looking for trouble with Baili Zonglu, while Huo Mingzhu was waiting for the best time to ripen.

such as--

"It's not good, the emperor vomited blood."

This sound broke the tranquility in the palace.

Huo Mingzhu rushed over in a hurry, and there was a large area of ​​kneeling outside the bedroom. Huo Mingzhu took a deep breath, stepped over the kneeling people, and walked into the emperor's bedroom.

The emperor was leaning on the dragon bed. Although his face was a little pale, he was still in good spirits. It was just that he coughed from time to time, making him look like an old man.

Huo Mingzhu's heart moved, she stepped forward quickly, and knelt down in front of the emperor: "The concubine sees the emperor, do you feel better, the concubine, as soon as the concubine heard the news, she rushed over."

The emperor's eyes lit up when he saw Huo Mingzhu coming, and he desperately hoped that Huo Mingzhu would come to him quickly. At this moment, Huo Mingzhu was his all hope.

Just now he coughed badly, and in a sharp cough, he coughed up a mouthful of blood. Looking at the bright red blood, the fear in the emperor's heart can be imagined.

"Queen, quickly, come to me." The emperor hurriedly beckoned for Huo Mingzhu to pass.

After the emperor grabbed Huo Mingzhu's hand, he said urgently: "Queen, what progress has been made in what I asked you to do?"

As soon as Huo Mingzhu heard it, she knew that the emperor was referring to the art of immortality. When she heard it, she lowered her head for a moment, and then said to the emperor: "Your majesty, my concubine is incompetent and has failed the emperor's entrustment, but there is progress. .”

Originally, the emperor was really disappointed when he heard Huo Mingzhu said that he hadn't found the technique of immortality, but when he heard Huo Mingzhu said that there was progress, he immediately grabbed Huo Mingzhu's hand anxiously and said: "Quickly tell me I know."

"The concubine has searched the ancient books, but there are not many records of the technique of immortality. The concubine has searched again and again, found many ancient books, and finally recorded this matter in a handbook left by the ancestors. However, it only mentioned a few words, and the concubine only understood the meaning of double cultivation and joy."

"What does that mean?" The emperor became even more impatient.

This technique of immortality is his only hope now. He knows that he is getting old and his body is getting weaker and weaker. The last time he had a cold, this time he coughed up blood, what about the next time?The emperor didn't want anything to happen next time, so he was very anxious.

Of course Huo Mingzhu knew what the emperor was thinking, she just wanted to lead the emperor into her trap step by step.

The so-called technique of immortality is not so easy to know, if you don't need to go through a lot of twists and turns, even the emperor may doubt the technique of immortality, so Huo Mingzhu is waiting for the opportunity.

"The concubine is still studying carefully, and I'm afraid it will take some time before I can give the emperor an answer." Huo Mingzhu looked at the emperor as if she had tried her best and would continue to do her best.

A look of disappointment appeared on the emperor's face, and he frowned displeasedly: "Is it still some time? Queen, you didn't lie to me, did you?"

When Huo Mingzhu heard this, she knelt down again, looked at the emperor with a look of fear and said: "Your majesty, please trust me, I have already tried my best to find you in order to go on with the emperor, but, It's just that the concubine is really too incompetent."

As she said that, her eyes were already filled with tears, and she looked extremely wronged but dared not speak.

When the emperor saw Huo Mingzhu like this, his heart softened a little. After all, the art of immortality is not so easy to obtain, and she has indeed tried her best, not to mention, she has to rely on her to find it. Therefore, the emperor is not easy to say. Words of accusation: "Queen, I just hope you find it quickly, and I'm not blaming you, so don't be sad."

"Your Majesty, are the concubines useless? I desperately want the Emperor to have a strong dragon body so that I can create a more prosperous Dayong, but I can't find the magic of immortality for the Emperor." Hot tears welled up in Huo Mingzhu's eyes. Unceasingly rolling down, the appearance of pear blossoms covered with rain made the emperor feel guilty for a while.

"The empress is loyal to me, and I am very pleased." As she spoke, she coughed unbearably.

Huo Mingzhu hurried up to help the emperor with his back, the emperor coughed and coughed up another mouthful of blood, Huo Mingzhu saw it, and burst into tears.

The surrounding maids and eunuchs saw it and hurriedly knelt down.

Huo Mingzhu cried for a while and said: "Your Majesty, you have worked so hard, and this concubine swears to you that I will definitely find this longevity technique."

The emperor gasped and nodded feebly.

In the Palace of Compassion and Ning, the Empress Dowager frowned tightly, listening to Luo Guogong's words.

"Empress Dowager, this matter must not be delayed any longer. Now the emperor is bewildered by the demon queen, obsessed with the art of medicine and stones, regardless of the safety of the people in the country and the country. It is rumored that the Mobei royal family has been lurking in Shangjing, plotting evil, but now the emperor is indifferent to this matter. It's really my Great Yong's danger." Luo Guogong said with tears and pride, but it was just to make the Queen Mother agree with the next move of the Luo family.

After hearing this, the queen mother was silent for a while, and asked: "You just said that the emperor is obsessed with the art of medicine and stones, and the dragon body may not be able to hold it?"

Luo Guogong sighed deeply as a reply.

As a subject, how can he say that the emperor's dragon body is not safe, so he knows it is a sigh, and the queen mother knows what he means.

No matter what, the emperor was born to the empress dowager, and now the emperor is not in good health, as mothers, they will be worried, but, before the empress dowager was the emperor's mother, she was the empress dowager of one dynasty, and she was extremely concerned about Jiangshan Sheji. important.

What she considered was that the emperor should think about whether this person is suitable before changing the position. Therefore, when she learned that the emperor might not be alive soon, if Baili Jingqi succeeded to the throne, then the Great Yongjiang Mountain...

Thinking of the covetous Mo Bei, the queen mother felt that Luo Guogong's worries were justified. The queen mother was silent for a moment, and she already had an idea in her mind: "It would be appropriate to let Jiu'er sit on the ninety-five statue."

Luo Guogong did not dare to say that he had already voted for Baili Zonglu. He was also the one who proposed to the emperor that Baili Feng'er married into the Lin family. To make Baili Jingqi the emperor, one must know that the empress doting on Baili Jingqi is obvious to all.

"The Ninth Prince is my Dayong's god of war. He is brave and good at fighting, and is deeply loved by the people. If he ascends the throne as the emperor, he will be expected by everyone." Luo Guogong said again.

The queen mother nodded slightly, but the worry on her face deepened a little: "The emperor's dragon is not in good health, if it has been relying on the queen's elixir, it can still support the prince until he becomes a talent."

Luo Guogong said: "The crown prince is young, if the humble minister was not afraid of the invasion of the Mobei tartars, and the emperor doesn't care about political affairs, how could he say such outrageous things." Luo Guogong said, also sighed deeply.

The Empress Dowager looked at Luo Guogong and knew that Luo Guogong was also loyal to the country. Although it was to find a favorable source for the Luo family before the country was changed, and the Empress Dowager was also a member of the Luo family before, she would not blame Luo Guogong for what he did. Moreover, if Luo Guogong didn't put her in his eyes, he would naturally not talk to her and just do it.

The Empress Dowager took a look at Luo Guogong, and said: "Jiu'er becomes emperor, and he is good to Jing Qi. He is the uncle of the emperor, and he loves Jing Qi on weekdays, just like what you said. If it's okay, retire. Come down."

The Empress Dowager felt very tired, so she waved weakly to let Duke Luo leave.

The purpose of Luo Guogong's trip is to convince the Queen Mother, and also to prepare the Queen Mother. The Luo family supports the Ninth Prince, and the Ninth Prince is the most suitable emperor.

Luo Guogong came out of the Empress Dowager's Renshou Palace and hurried to the Ninth Prince's Mansion. He still had news to bring out, that is, when he just entered the palace, he heard the emperor coughing up blood.

Baili Zonglu looked at Luo Guogong and said, "Your news is correct?"

"It's absolutely true, my servants told me the truth, the emperor coughed up blood, the queen hurried over, wept until she was in tears, and promised that the emperor would definitely find the technique of immortality." Luo Guogong felt that this The news can be said to be extremely useful, the emperor is looking for an undead technique, I am afraid that the dragon body is really exhausted.

When Baili Zonglu heard about it, he just smiled: "Are you serious about the little girl's trick?"

The art of immortality, if there really is an art of immortality, he is not afraid, even if the emperor really has a way to not die, he will let the king of hell accept him.

"What does the lord mean?" Luo Guogong looked at Baili Zonglu in confusion. He didn't understand why Baili Zonglu could hold his breath so calmly.

Although Luo Guogong didn't believe in this so-called immortality technique, they could use this immortality technique to make a fuss. If it could make the emperor die earlier, wouldn't it be better.

Baili Zonglu said: "The meaning of this king is not to intervene in this matter. This king wants to see what tricks Huo Mingzhu can play. Hmph, the art of immortality?"

Looking at Baili Zonglu's smile, Luo Guogong thought to himself, the Ninth Prince might have planned a long time ago, that's why he put himself in the position of watching the drama so indifferently.

Luo Guogong was thinking wrong this time, Baili Zonglu really wanted to watch a play.

Previously, he blindly planned and arranged, but that plan failed again and again, for what reason?That is the existence of the woman Huo Mingzhu. Her existence seems to be a variable, and all the things he has planned have been hit to pieces. Therefore, Baili Zonglu changed his previous style and did not intend to make a move. Let's have a look first.

He wants to take a good look at what Huo Mingzhu wants to do.

"Yes, the old minister obeys." Luo Guogong said respectfully.

Baili Zonglu thought of another thing, so he said: "The matter of the Mobei royal family is known to everyone in the capital, but you didn't tell this king, how to suppress it?"

Luo Guogong said: "The old minister just wants to use this matter to gain the Queen Mother's support for the lord. If we can get the help of the Queen Mother, the chance of winning will be even greater. Therefore, the humble minister let people release the Mobei royal family lurking here. Things about Shangjing."

Baili Zonglu heard the words, but said lightly: "Although this matter is not beautiful enough, it is still reluctant. If the queen mother blindly favors that stupid prince, this king will have nothing to fear. The Renshou Palace is so big that it is enough for the queen mother and her elders." Take care of your life."

When Luo Guogong heard this, he hurriedly thanked him: "This matter can help the Ninth Prince, which is the blessing of the veteran. The Queen Mother also understands things. more prosperous."

"This king not only wants Dayong, but also the whole world. When the time comes, the whole world will become one, and that will be prosperity." Thinking of the scene, Baili Zonglu raised his head and laughed wildly.

Luo Guogong bowed his head below and shouted at the right time: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."

"Okay! Haha." Baili Zonglu was extremely happy when he heard the sound of long live.
