The Notre Dame system is arrogant again

Chapter 712
The news that Duan Li was not dead quickly spread throughout the aristocratic circle of the capital, like a frying pan.

"not dead!"

"He's not dead!"

"how is this possible!"

"I saw it with my own eyes."

"Is it really a land of immortals?"

"That's still wrong!"

"But how did those people die? But he is alive!"

"That's right, if you enter the Immortal Land, you won't die, so what if other people die?"

"You have to ask the concubine himself."

"Shhh, you can't be called a concubine anymore, you should be the son of a fairy!"

……

The same question is also staged in the bedroom in the palace.

The emperor has been suffering from illness for several years, most of the time is spent in the palace, including dealing with government affairs, and only showing his face in front of everyone unless he has to go to court, so these years, only a few capable princes and important officials in the court have seen the emperor , other people are rare, and they don't participate in the annual festival activities.

It was also the first time for Duan Li to meet the emperor, so it can be seen how much the emperor attached importance to the rumors that he was the son of a fairy.

"Reporting to the emperor, Duan Li is fine, but..." The imperial doctor had finished examining Duan Li's body, and he hesitated to report to the emperor.

The emperor was leaning on the bed, covered with a thin quilt, and his whole body was covered by a gauze curtain, making it difficult for people to see clearly.

Duan Li was kneeling not far away, his eyes were vertical, he didn't peek, but his ears were pricked up, he really wanted to know if the content behind it was just like what Zhang Xiaohua said.

"But it's okay to say." The emperor's voice came from behind the gauze curtain, a little hoarse, but it was quite clear.

"Yes, to report back to the emperor, Duan Li is not in serious danger to his life, but his son is in some difficulties."

The imperial physician just said it was difficult, not that it was impossible, but everyone who heard it knew that this was just a tactful way of saying it, and what it really meant was that Duan Li would not have any children.

Duan Li didn't feel sad or angry, but thought that Zhang Xiaohua was very powerful.

The emperor was silent for a while.

"You go back first."

The imperial physician stepped back.

"Duan Li." The emperor's voice was a little higher.

"The grass people are here."

He has no official position, Prince Rong did not recognize his son, his name was not written in the royal genealogy, and he can only call himself a grassroots man in front of the emperor.

"You come up and talk."

"Yes."

Duan Li got up and took two steps forward, then knelt down again.

"Your Majesty, please tell me."

"I ask you, everyone who went with you is dead, why are you alive?"

What you said is really unreasonable, it is the emperor, try another person, you will definitely be beaten up, you are cursing me, damn it!
Duan Li didn't feel anything, and replied respectfully after listening.

"Your Majesty, I don't know how other people will die, I only know that I will not die."

"Oh why?"

"I once had a dream in the land of the gods. In the dream, people said that after great pain, there is great luck, and after death, there is rebirth!"

"what!"

The emperor's voice was visibly excited, but then there was a violent cough.

"emperor!"

The servant walked over quickly, stroked his chest and fed water, finally managed to ease the emperor's breath.

"Damn the grassroots! I also ask the emperor to forgive me!" Duan Li kowtowed fiercely and said repeatedly.

The emperor let out a breath, a little weak and authentic.

"What are you guilty of, let's talk about it."

"Yes." Duan Li stopped and kowtowed, and continued, "I've been thinking about this sentence all the time, because the matter is so important, I didn't tell anyone at that time, and I only said it to Lord Rong when I came back..."

Duan Li paused.

"Since then, my injuries have become more and more serious. Although I firmly believe that I will not die, at that time I also despaired. I entered the mountain and walked for an unknown how long. I passed out and had that dream again. The ground, and that voice. But this time I only heard him say a lot, but I didn’t remember a single word. When I woke up, my body seemed to be better, but at that time I didn’t have the strength to come back, so I had to stay in the mountains and forests. Will support. To be honest, I didn’t think I could live at the time, I thought I was back to life, and I was supported by the instinct of survival, but later... I found something on my body..."

"What?" The emperor's voice was filled with urgency.

Duan Li took out a palm-sized box from his pocket, and handed it up with both hands.

The servant took it with both hands, but he didn't show it to the emperor right away, but checked it and saw that there was no danger, so he showed it to the emperor.

This is a metal box with a faint luster, which looks very delicate.

There was a buckle-like thing on the side of the box, and the emperor signaled to open it.

The valet carefully opened the buckle, and with a light snap, the lid opened, and there was an irregular thing the size of a fingertip inside, which radiated dazzling light, and even looked colorful.

The emperor didn't hide his excitement this time, he stretched out his trembling hands to take the box, and greedily looked at the little thing inside.

"what is this?"

"This is what I saw in the Immortal Land." Duan Li replied respectfully.

"You brought it back?"

"The emperor was joking. We can't even get close to the things in the land of immortals. How can we bring them back?"

"Then this is..." The emperor's breath became short of breath.

Duan Li said.

"Your Majesty, I don't know how it came about. I only discovered it a few days after I woke up. I dare not think about it, and I don't know whether my good health is due to this."

When the emperor heard this, he reluctantly put this thing away, put it beside his pillow, and asked.

"What do you mean by dedicating this thing to me?"

Duan Li said sincerely.

"Reporting to the emperor, I originally planned to dedicate it to Lord Rong, but only after I came back did I find out that Lord Rong is not in the capital. The emperor summoned me to ask about my affairs, and I dare not hide it."

The emperor was not angry because of Duan Li's words, but dispelled his doubts because Duan Li was telling the truth.

According to the normal situation, Duan Li would not be able to see him, only Lord Rong. If he said that it was originally dedicated to him, it would be a lie.

"You are fine." The emperor's tone was milder.

"emperor!"

Duan Li was stunned for a moment, and then he yelled loudly, his voice still choked with sobs.

The emperor sighed.

"I know that you have suffered a lot of grievances over the years. You can't go home if you have a family, and you can't admit to your father. It's not your fault, but it's not fair for you to ask you to bear it."

Duan Li raised his head, tears streaming down his face, sobbing through the gauze curtain.

"With the words of the emperor, no matter how unfair it is, it is fair!"

"The eyes of the world will not change just because of what I say."

Duan Li wept softly.

"Your majesty, you don't know. When I thought I was going to die, I, I really wanted to know why I came to this world. I suffered so much, just for that moment of death, why?"

"People suffer in life, but don't be discouraged. If you survive a catastrophe, you will have future blessings. Your blessings will come later."

Duan Li shook his head.

"I don't expect too many blessings, I just hope that I can live a decent life in the future, and no longer be talked about by others."

"Your request is not high, I can satisfy you."

Duan Li's eyes widened in disbelief.

"My lord, what do you mean?"
