Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 197 Uncle Da Zong, I will send you on your way
"Your Majesty, [-]% of the true god's outer body has recovered, and now it can help His Majesty recover to the sixth-rank cultivation base."

Sui Zhi sent good news to Emperor Zhaoxing, that Emperor Zhaoxing's cultivation could be restored to one rank again.

The emperor was very happy: "Qing Zhen is my humerus, the post of Minister of War is vacant, and only Qing can be worthy of this important task!"

Sui Zhi thanked him with a salute.

Hearing what Emperor Zhaoxing meant, it seemed that he wanted to promote him.

But Sui Zhi knew Emperor Zhaoxing very well, and the topic of the Minister of War was as long as he wanted.

Emperor Zhaoxing only said that this position was suitable for him, but did not say that it must be given to him.

Emperor Zhaoxing never made any promises, and unless he saw the imperial decree, every word he said could not be taken seriously.

Chen Shuncai ordered people to bring six jars, and each jar was filled with blood tree sap.

Sui Zhi frowned and said, "Your Majesty, there are still only six blood trees?"

Emperor Zhaoxing sighed and said, "This matter should not be rushed."

Sui Zhi said: "Six blood trees can help Your Majesty restore the sixth-rank cultivation. If you want to restore the fifth-rank, you must have ten at least, to restore the fourth-rank must have [-] trees, and to restore the third-rank must have [-] trees. "

Emperor Zhaoxing said with a smile on his face: "Sui Aiqing, from the first rank to the third rank, one blood tree is enough. Now that I have resumed cultivation, why do I need thirty blood trees?"

Seemingly amiable, Emperor Zhaoxing was actually very dissatisfied with this.

Sui Zhidao: "Your Majesty has spent ten years cultivating to the third rank. Does Your Majesty have to wait another ten years?"

Emperor Zhaoxing smiled and looked at Sui Zhi.

There are thorns in Sui Zhi's words.

Emperor Zhaoxing smiled and said, "Thank you for your love."

Sui Zhi drew a magic circle on the ground, and put six altars of sap in the center of the circle.

The magic circle trembled, the ground suddenly sunken, and the six jars fell into the ground together.

After a while, the ground returned to its original state, and there was a steaming dumpling on the ground.

The purpose of this magic circle is to dedicate six altars of blood tree sap to Taotie's outer body.

As for what this group is...

Different people have different opinions.

Sui Zhi dedicated the dumplings to Emperor Zhaoxing.

Emperor Zhaoxing ate the dumplings one bite at a time with warm water.

After a cup of tea, Emperor Zhaoxing was sweating profusely and his face turned pale.

Seeing this, Chen Shuncai hurriedly ordered the dishes to be served.

Emperor Zhaoxing was not sick or poisoned, he was hungry.

The waiter used a large square plate three feet long and one foot wide to bring up a plate full of mutton. Emperor Zhaoxing directly tore the mutton with his hands and stuffed it into his mouth. After a while, he ate up the whole plate of meat.

The sweat subsided a little, but the complexion still hadn't recovered.

Chen Shuncai ordered to continue serving the meat.

After eating three whole plates of mutton, a layer of fat appeared on Emperor Zhaoxing's body, and bursts of energy wafted from his body.

The empress had already prepared a magic circle by her side, and the fishy smell seeping from Emperor Zhaoxing's body was transformed into yin and yang qi and drifted away.

Xu Zhiqiong was honing his tongue with Second Sister Lin in the East Palace when he suddenly felt Yin and Yang trembling in the air.

"Are there any Yin-Yang cultivators in the palace?"

Lin Qianniang nodded and said, "Some concubines and servants have practiced yin and yang art, and this is all allowed by the emperor."

The yin and yang qi that Xu Zhiqiong is familiar with are both soft, and the soft qi mechanism is more suitable for delicate use.

Why is this yin and yang energy so fierce?

Xu Zhiqiong carefully felt the changes in Qi, Second Sister Lin was upset.

"Cultivation is at a critical juncture, how can you be half-hearted?"

Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said, "It's a little tight."

"Don't pay attention!"

Xu Zhiqiong hurriedly concentrated on training.

……

An hour later, Emperor Zhaoxing resumed his sixth-rank cultivation, but the fishy smell on his body still persisted.

The queen was exhausted, so she went back to Kunning Palace to rest. The emperor should not go out, so he rested in the secret pavilion. To prevent accidents, he ordered Sui Zhi to serve him.

At Shen Shi, Liang Gongping asked for an audience, and Chen Shuncai came out to help: "Elder Shengci, Your Majesty just fell asleep."

Liang Gongping said: "If the matter is urgent, please pass it on to Chen Bing."

Chen Shuncai said with a look of embarrassment: "Elder, can't you wait for a while?"

Liang Gongping looked at Yan Huan beside him, sighed and said, "Can the old man wait, and ask Uncle Da Zong if he can wait?"

Yan Huan said with a sullen face: "I've waited too long, if I don't see the emperor today at Youshi, I'll just go to the hunting garden by myself."

Chen Shuncai said helplessly: "Let's see if His Majesty slept well or not."

Emperor Zhaoxing was still adjusting his breath in the secret pavilion, and Sui Zhi was always by his side.

Chen Shuncai came in and told Emperor Zhaoxing about the matter. Emperor Zhaoxing rubbed his brows, closed his eyes and said: "I knew Yanhuan would come, but I didn't expect him to come at such an inopportune time!"

Sui Zhi said: "Let Chen Bingbi persuade him, let him keep his own place in Zhuque Palace, and don't hurt the harmony between the two countries."

Emperor Zhao Xing shook his head and said: "What's the use of persuading him? Yan Huan is not my minister, and he won't listen to my orders at all. He has already set his sights on Po Nu Yuan! But you can stop him with just a few words?"

"Then find another way to keep him." Sui Zhi said this lightly, but in fact he had hidden murderous intentions, and he suggested that the emperor kill Yan Huan directly.

"Why bother?" Emperor Zhaoxing shook his head and said, "He wants to go to Ponuyuan so much, let him go."

Sui Zhi didn't speak any more, Emperor Zhaoxing had planned for a long time, and it would be futile to say more.

In the secret pavilion, there was a long silence.

Emperor Zhaoxing said slowly: "Sui Aiqing, I once mentioned a person named Gongsun Wen to you. You have always said that it is a pity that you don't have the chance to meet him. Today, I will end this pity for you."

Emperor Zhaoxing took out a map from the Book Pavilion and handed it to Sui Zhi: "Everything that should be done is on this map. With the two of you working together and the Queen's help, nothing will go wrong."

Sui Zhi took the map and looked at it, and immediately understood what Emperor Zhaoxing meant, and hurriedly left the secret pavilion.

Emperor Zhaoxing stretched his waist, and said to Chen Shuncai: "Let Elder Shengci and Uncle Da Zong come in."

Chen Shuncai said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the fishy smell on your body is getting stronger."

Emperor Zhaoxing nodded: "It's not right, you find some spices, the thicker the better, to cover up the smell."

"Cover it up with spices? Elder Shengci has a good nose." Chen Shuncai always felt that this was purely a cover-up.

Emperor Zhaoxing said with a smile: "Go quickly, the thicker the better, don't let them wait too long."

It took Chen Shun an hour to fill the secret pavilion with spices.

There were dozens of steps away from the secret pavilion, and the rich aroma made Liang Gongping sniffle.

"Uncle Da Zong, we came at a really bad time. Your Majesty must have just met the female relatives."

"Elder Shengci, when do you think it's appropriate to come? I'll come again when your emperor is fully entertained?"

Liang Gongping was too lazy to talk, the two entered the secret pavilion, and the tangy aroma made Yan Huan feel a little uncomfortable.

Although he was not a minister of Daxuan, Yan Huan saluted Emperor Zhaoxing respectfully.

Emperor Zhaoxing asked: "Uncle Da Zong, I am in a hurry to see you today, what is the important matter?"

"Your Majesty, the foreign ministers have received news that someone is planting impermanent blood trees in the territory of Daxuan!"

Emperor Zhaoxing frowned and said, "What Uncle Da Zong said was the impermanent blood tree in Anshuyuan?"

Yan Huan shook his head and said: "The foreign ministers don't want to get involved in the matter of Anshu Courtyard. The blood tree mentioned by the foreign ministers comes from Ponuyuan!"

Emperor Zhaoxing blinked his eyes, his expression was quite nervous: "Uncle Da Zong, have you heard the rumors?"

Yan Huan said: "It's not just the foreign ministers who heard it, your Majesty can go to Beiyuan to have a look. The families of more than two thousand laborers are crying day and night!"

Liang Gongping said: "It's all rumors in the market, believable or not..."

Yan Huan said angrily: "Elder Shengci, this is more than two thousand lives! A rumor in the market can be perfunctory? If only one person spreads the rumor, it's fine, can more than two thousand people lie together?"

Liang Gongping shrugged his eyebrows: "It doesn't matter if there is one person or two thousand people, after all, they are all my people."

Yan Huan said: "How many times have I said that I have no intention of interfering in your internal affairs, but if this matter involves evil spirits, I will never sit idly by!"

"Uncle Dazong, let me say a word," Emperor Zhaoxing sighed, "I have an inseparable relationship with this matter."

What is this nonsense?

What is an inseparable relationship?
Can this kind of thing be said in front of outsiders?

Liang Gongping is really worried about Emperor Zhaoxing's IQ.

Emperor Zhaoxing said: "Xiankang wanted to build a palace in Ponuyuan. I agreed to him. He said that he would recruit some laborers. I also agreed to him. I really didn't expect..."

Liang Gongping interrupted the emperor: "Your Majesty is talking about the palace, the Royal Hunting Garden, how can you let the prince build the palace at will."

Liang Xianhong, no matter what, let's discuss it in private, so don't talk about it anymore!
Emperor Zhaoxing burst into tears: "He is my own younger brother, just a palace, and I really promised him."

Liang Gongping couldn't get back to the scene.

Yan Huan said: "In this way, the matter about the palace built by King Huai in the Hunting Garden is true, and the matter about the more than [-] laborers is also true! Foreign ministers are kindly requested to go to Po Nu Yuan to find out the truth."

Liang Gongping said: "Uncle Da Zong, the Royal Hunting Garden, I can't allow you to investigate as soon as you say, if you trust me, I will go first..."

"I can't trust you!" Uncle Da Zong put his words to death, Liang Gongping blushed and looked at the emperor, "Your Majesty, the Royal Hunting Garden is not a trivial matter, and this matter should be handled with caution."

Emperor Zhaoxing nodded and said: "Elder Shengci, you can go with Uncle Da Zong. No matter what crime Xiankang committed, I will never protect him this time!"

Liang Gongping didn't want to talk, and had nothing to say.

What happened to the emperor today?
Could it be that he wants to expose all the scandals of King Huai, so as to gain a good reputation for himself?

He can do this kind of thing.

But there is also an opportunity, if Yan Huanzhen finds out the impermanent blood tree, not only King Huai will be smeared, but the entire Daxuan royal family!
Liang Gongping felt restless, and bursts of strong fragrance hit him, which made people feel even more irritated.

How many concubines came to Shicai's secret pavilion?

He does what he does, why does he have to be in the Secret Pavilion?

Strange……

Not only the aroma, but also a faint fishy smell.

Where does this smell come from?

Liang Gongping looked at Emperor Zhaoxing, then at Uncle Da Zong.

Not counting the four evil ways, among the cultivators of the same rank, the most sensitive ones are judges, followed by eunuchs, followed by yin and yang practitioners, and then by domineering and killing practitioners.

And Suzaku Shengdao's perception is on par with that of Mohists, and belongs to the very dull category, Yan Huan should not have smelled the fishy smell in the fragrance.

The stench came from Emperor Zhaoxing.

Why does he have such a heavy fishy smell?

Could it be that he really practiced evil ways?

Emperor Zhaoxing wiped away his tears and said, "Elder Shengci, I am worried that you will go alone, why don't you ask Elder Shengwei to go with you!"

Liang Gongping froze his eyes, thinking about Emperor Zhaoxing's intentions.

Send me and Liang Jixiong away, so you can secretly get promoted in the capital?
After pondering for a moment, Liang Gongping said: "Your Majesty, after I have discussed with Elder Shengwei, I will immediately set off with Uncle Da Zong."

The two left the secret pavilion, and Emperor Zhaoxing muttered to himself: "The autumn harvest is approaching, I originally wanted to keep you for a few more days, but you are so entangled, I can only send you on your way."
