There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 188 Trading
Dali Temple was the most authoritative and upright institution in the Great Xia Dynasty. With the emperor's special decree, they were like a godsend in investigating the case.

In addition, Xia Houyan is extremely stupid.

Xia Houjue didn't need to make a move at all, he could dig a hole and bury himself.

Because of this, the truth of this case came to light in less than three days, with witnesses and material evidence, and the whole story of the incident, all of which were investigated by Dali Temple.

In the Jinhua Palace, Emperor Jingyuan sat in front of the case and looked through the crimes one by one. Sometimes he was so angry that he would vomit blood, and sometimes he was depressed. He cried and laughed, with unpredictable expressions on his face.

"Good! Good!"

"He's really my good son. For so many years, I really loved him for nothing..."

He closed his eyes, letting the tears run down his face.

Like a mother, like a son, the queen and Jingmin are far apart after all.

Thinking of Jing Min again, Emperor Jing Yuan felt uncomfortable and quickly moved his mind away.

"Li Baoyuan!"

"The slave is here!"

"Last time, how is the progress of what I told you to do?"

"Back to the emperor! We have found someone. He is an expert who has been wandering around for many years. The folks call him Taoist Qingshan. According to folk rumors, this person is a full one hundred and one years old this year. He has strong magic power and can The Prophet of Unpredictability has practiced for ninety-nine and eighty-one years, and he is about to attain Taoism and become an immortal!"

"Oh?!" Emperor Jing Yuan suddenly became interested.

"Since this is the case, why is he willing to enter the palace?" Wouldn't it be better to become a fairy directly?
"Your majesty is the son of a real dragon. He heard that the emperor has a heart for Taoism, so he wanted to be a recommender to practice together. It is also a great honor to come here. Not everyone has this honor!"

"This person is very knowledgeable!" Emperor Jing Yuan was very satisfied.

Although the world is inherently mortal, no one can really achieve immortality, but what if someone really has the ability, he can really achieve it?
Wouldn't it mean that he would never have to see Jing Min?
"Where is this person?"

"Already on the way to Beijing, it will arrive in about two or three days!"

Emperor Jingyuan nodded, looking forward to it.

Looking at the pile of upset memorials on the royal case, he swept aside with a wave of his hand, took out a portrait and spread it out on the table

The portrait is of a woman with light yellow skirt and curved eyebrows, who is his sweetheart in the bottom of his heart for decades.

"Cough cough...cough cough!" Emperor Jing Yuan coughed violently.

Li Baoyuan had no choice but to feed him the last pill.

"Your Majesty, take care of your dragon body!"

"Where's the queen? Go ask the queen to offer a few more boxes!" Emperor Jingyuan coughed and poured tea, but it was useless.

Li Baoyuan was in dire straits: "Your majesty...this...slave is really..."

When he was in trouble, there was a sudden announcement from outside.

"Empress Empress, please see me!"

Li Baoyuan hesitated for a moment, and Emperor Jingyuan waved his hand.

"Go and call her in!"

"Yes!"

The queen dragged her tired and weak body into the door. Although the clothes on her body were still luxurious and beautiful, after all, she was old, with heart disease and physical weakness, her whole body was haggard, and her white hair was prominent.

"emperor!"

The queen entered the door and knelt down, her voice much weaker.

"Everything has been found out. The evidence is conclusive and unforgivable for King Chen to collude with the enemy and treason the country. What can the queen say?" Emperor Jing Yuan threw the pile of incriminations and confessions in front of her, his eyes suddenly cold.

The queen didn't even look at it, she just said decisively on her face.

"The concubine knows that Yan'er has made a big mistake, and the concubine is not here to plead for mercy!"

"Oh? Why did you come here without begging for mercy?" You never came here to stomp on your son.

The queen narrowed her eyes and sneered: "The concubine wants to make a deal with the emperor!"

After speaking, he glanced at Li Baoyuan and motioned him to go out.

Li Baoyuan went down knowingly, and before leaving, he intimately closed the door behind him.

But... After all, he has been in the palace for decades, and Emperor Jingyuan is about to die. If he doesn't please his new master, his life will be difficult for the next few decades.

So he found a corner and put his ears against the wall.

In the room, the Queen lowered her voice and whispered.

"Your Majesty, is your illness okay recently? Is the medicine sent by my concubine okay?"

Emperor Jing Yuan was not stupid, he understood what she meant in an instant, he was a little angry, but he held back.

"Not bad!"

"Then this medicine...does the emperor still want it?"

"You can just say what you want!" Emperor Jingyuan was a little impatient. He was an emperor, and the thing he hated and could not tolerate the most was being threatened by others.

The queen's move has obviously touched his bottom line.

The queen didn't bother to go around in circles anymore, she stood up directly: "The concubine knows that the emperor hates me, but for Yan'er, the concubine has to go all out!"

"That's right, this drug is addictive, and the emperor... can't do without it. Are you surprised or not?" The queen smiled sullenly.

The light was a little dim, and her face was extremely pale, looking like an evil ghost that came up from hell.

"You!" Emperor Jing Yuan suddenly became excited.

"There is such a vicious medicine in the world?" He had long felt that something was wrong, but he never thought of this level.

He once asked people from the Imperial Hospital to imitate this medicine, but all failed. They said that it was not a product of the Great Xia Dynasty. There were many unrecognizable poisons in the formula, and there were no medicinal materials, so they dared not try it rashly.

"Hahaha..." The queen laughed loudly.

"Of course, even if the emperor sits in the world, he shouldn't forget the saying that there are people outside the world!"

"You poisonous woman!" Emperor Jing Yuan threw a porcelain cup at him, before hitting the queen, he vomited blood and fell over.

"Oh, Your Majesty, you are so weak, you can't do without medicine!"

"One can't suppress your illness, right? Don't be afraid, the concubine brought this red pill this time, which is ten times more effective than the golden pill. Just take one, and the emperor's illness will be cured immediately." Much better, this one can last at least four or five days!"

"Are you so kind? What are the conditions?" Emperor Jingyuan had a forbearing expression. He wanted the pills but felt humiliated, his eyes were full of confusion.

Jing Min is still here, will she look down on him?

"My son's life!"

"I just want the emperor to protect him this time! As long as you do it, how much pills do you want for the next year?"

"Cough cough cough!" Emperor Jing Yuan coughed violently and spit out another mouthful of blood.

His chest and lungs seemed to be useless, no matter how much he breathed, it was useless. He was like a fish out of water, breathing desperately, but he still couldn't get a sliver of hope for life.

The feeling of being on the verge of death is too terrifying, he doesn't want to die yet, he wants to live.

"Okay! I promise you! Get the medicine quickly!"

The queen took out a white jade porcelain bottle from her sleeve, poured out a big red pill from it, and fed it to Emperor Jing Yuan herself.

After a while, he really stopped coughing, his complexion improved a lot, his chest became bright, and his limbs regained their comfort.

"How is it? The concubine didn't lie to you, did she?"
