Mother, run, Daddy Regent is here again

Chapter 203 The Emperor's Death

At this time, Taikang was thinking about the elixir, and An couldn't bear the anxiety, so he decided to visit Modak.

But the father-in-law next to him persuaded: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is not right? King Modak has repeatedly instructed that alchemy requires patience and timing. Now is the critical moment. If we go and disturb him , that elixir..."

Taikang was also very tangled in his heart, walking back and forth restlessly, and said with a sad face: "But, it's been too long, if I don't take a look, I won't feel at ease in my heart, let's take a look!"

Seeing that the father-in-law couldn't stop him, he had no choice but to go with him.

The emperor was in a hurry, and Modak was far away in the frontier, so he couldn't stop him for a while, and there was nothing he could do.

When Taikang came to the alchemy room, Eunuch Lu, who had been staying here all this time, was taken aback and said, "Your Majesty, why are you here?"

Taikang immediately changed his face, and said: "Why can't I come? You have been here for a few days, and your words are so unruly?"

Eunuch Lu was frightened, afraid that the matter would be exposed, he broke out in a cold sweat, and replied: "I don't dare, I am so happy, the emperor takes care of everything, and he still has the time to come and see the slave..."

Taikang said disdainfully: "Who came to see you? I came to see how the elixir Modak trained for me is doing?"

He stretched his neck and wanted to look inside, but was blocked by Eunuch Lu intentionally or unintentionally. Taikang was surprised: "Eunuch Lu, do you have any problems with your neck? If you have any problems, call the imperial doctor for treatment. Don't block my sight here. up, get up!"

Eunuch Lu was so frightened that he knelt down on the ground: "Your Majesty, it's not the time yet. King Modak is now in a critical period of alchemy, so don't be disturbed!"

Taikang touched his ears, thought for a while and said: "That's right, this cultivation and alchemy are not a one-day thing, I was careless, when you go in, give me a message, let him not worry, I'm not in a hurry, then I'll come see him another day!"

Eunuch Lu quickly responded: "Okay, I'll convey it right away!"

Taikang turned and left without hesitation.

After not walking far, Taikang felt that the words of consolation to Modak would go away and make him slack off. Then what can this elixir be practiced well? No, I still have to go back and tell him!

Taikang turned back again. At this time, Eunuch Lu had just come out of the alchemy room. When he saw Taikang, he trembled unconsciously. Taikang was puzzled, "There is something wrong with this old thing!"

"You just went in?"

Eunuch Lu was so guilty that he didn't even say hello to the emperor.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I just conveyed your words to him!"

Taikang was so angry that he wanted to curse: "Why are you so talkative? I have never seen you run so fast when you are asked to do something! Go and talk to him again, let him speed up the progress, and say that I am a little impatient! "

Eunuch Lu wondered: "Is it fast or slow? Are you in a hurry or not, Your Majesty?"

Taikang waved his hands anxiously: "It's all right, let me go in and say it myself, lest your words fail to convey your meaning!"

Eunuch Lu hurried to grab the emperor, and said earnestly: "Your Majesty, you can't eat hot tofu if you are impatient, and you can't eat elixir if you can't restrain yourself. Just bear with it!"

After all, he pushed the emperor to leave, and the emperor had no choice but to go with the trend.

But he didn't go back to the palace right away, but went around the alchemy room to observe carefully, and when he suddenly walked to the side, he found a small door was open.

The emperor was worried that the alchemy furnace would be dangerous, so he led people into it through the side path.

They came to the alchemy room through a deep path. The room was rather dark, and a large cauldron furnace came into Taikang's eyes.

Although this cauldron was custom-made by Taikang from the outside at a large price, it was lifted and placed in a special alchemy room as soon as it arrived in the palace, so Taikang didn't have time to observe it.

At this moment, a person wearing Modak clothes was adding firewood to the alchemy furnace.

Seeing this, Taikang wanted to help him, and said with concern: "Modak, how can I let you do these rough jobs, let..."

When the man heard that it was the emperor, he immediately lowered his head, trembling and afraid to get up.

Taikang felt a little strange, and ordered: "Lift your head up for me!"

The man didn't dare to disobey, covered his face with his hands, and raised his head!

The emperor grabbed his hands, "It turned out to be you, where is Modak?"

The father-in-law pretending to be Modak immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, "The emperor spares his life, the emperor spares his life!"

Taikang sneered and said with a sarcasm: "Okay, they're all deceiving me, they're all hiding it from me! Let me drag them all down and behead them!"

Taikang returned to the palace angrily, issued a hunting order, and the whole city chased after Modak.

Modak's subordinates also sent news at this time, "It's no good, king, the emperor found out that someone pretended to be you practicing alchemy, and now he is arresting you in the whole city!"

His subordinates handed him a wanted notice, and Modak pulled it over. He tore up the notice angrily without seeing a few words, and said viciously: "There is no way, we can only speed up the pace, let our In the emperor's teacup, pour some medicine to trigger the poison in his body!"

The subordinate said worriedly: "Now the emperor is on guard, I'm afraid the poison will not work!"

Modak smiled slightly and said: "Whoever said to use poison, what we want to use is just an introduction. He has taken so many elixir before, it must have some effect! Anyone who checks will definitely not be able to find half of the toxicity, because the real It’s poisonous, it’s already in his stomach! Haha”

"The king is wise, he always does things one after the other, and the links are intertwined. It's really wonderful."

Modak restrained his smile and said: "Stop flattering, hurry up and do it, any more delay, and I will be in more danger!"

In the palace, the emperor was having lunch, as in the past, his close father-in-law Fu used silver needles to test the poison for him, and found nothing unusual, so he felt relieved to serve the emperor with dishes.

After the meal, the maid brought a cup of tea after dinner, Taikang asked about the fragrance of the tea, "What kind of tea is this today, so sweet?"

The palace lady replied: "This is the white peach oolong tea offered this year. It tastes neither bitter nor astringent. It tastes sweet in the mouth and dries in the aftertaste. It tastes very good. It is an excellent tea!"

Taikang attached the teacup to his nose and sniffed it, appreciating: "Sure enough!" Then he took a sip and was full of praise.

Just as he put down his wine glass, he suddenly covered his chest, opened his mouth, widened his eyes, and fell to the ground twitching in pain.

Eunuch Fu was so frightened that he knelt down, and quickly ordered: "Quickly, call the imperial physician!"

He went to appease Taikang again, and said: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? Don't worry, I'll send someone to invite the imperial physician, you must persevere!"

The imperial physicians were all over their bodies, and came to the emperor in large numbers, examined him, and announced helplessly: "Your majesty, you have already left!"

The servants were all taken aback, they were eating well just now!
