Eunuch Emperor Wu, sweeping the floor in the cold palace for 100 years

Chapter 7 Magical Power Stone, Royal Noble Day

Ye Cheng sat on a chair, holding a stone in his hand.

He first sensed the stone with his mind, and could vaguely sense the vigorous power fluctuations in it.

"According to Xiao Hei, many warriors are vying for this item. In other words, it must be beneficial to warriors, and there should be no toxicity."

Ye Cheng was thinking about it.

He decided to give it a try, mobilized a bit of qi, and touched the stone itself.

In an instant, a strange energy emerged from the stone, along with his true energy, rushing towards his body.

Ye Cheng originally wanted to cut off the zhenqi, but immediately found that the zhenqi in his body suddenly became lively, as if cheering for joy, he was extremely eager for this strange energy.

Thinking of this, Ye Cheng simply wrapped this energy with true energy and incorporated it into his body.

At the same time, he cut off the energy that wanted to continue to flow out of the stone.

After this energy enters the body, it is quickly absorbed by its own true energy.

His zhenqi seemed to be nourished, and it actually grew stronger.

"Is this a kind of energy stone specially used for cultivation?"

Ye Cheng's heart skipped a beat.

Under normal circumstances, if he wants to cultivate, he can only absorb the free energy between heaven and earth.

This efficiency is very low.

Although there is still a strong life pill in his body, it will always be consumed one day.

Then, after repeated experiments, Ye Cheng basically confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the stone.

"The energy contained in this stone is very pure, without any impurities, no wonder it is snatched by many warriors."

Ye Cheng looked at the energy stone in his palm and was very satisfied.

This thing is still quite precious.

After he completely absorbed the power of the life pill in his body, he would definitely slow down his cultivation speed greatly, and this energy stone could play a role.

"Let's raise your cultivation to the Zhixuan Realm first tonight."

Ye Cheng wrapped the energy stone in a cloth and put it in a wooden box.

A stone as big as a fist is not convenient to put on the body.

Anyway, this is a cold palace, no one will come.

When the white belly appeared in the east, there was a crisp sound like an egg breaking its shell came from Ye Cheng's body.

Then, this sound seemed to be transformed into a strange rhythm, blending into the true energy.

Ye Cheng suddenly felt that his evil spirit had become extremely lively.

This kind of liveliness seems to add a bit of power to the true energy.

Suddenly, Ye Cheng opened his eyes, stretched out a bone-like finger, breathed out his true energy, and with a stroke in the air, a white light-like light flickered, as if cutting the air, forming a The traces disappeared after a while.

"Is this referring to the Profound Realm?"

Ye Cheng muttered to himself.

After entering this level, zhenqi becomes active and has a hint of spirituality.

It is this liveliness and spirituality that gives the true energy a certain increase.

From the Flying Sky Realm to the Finger Profound Realm, perhaps the amount of true qi didn't increase much, but the true qi has the effect of increasing, which makes the strength increase greatly.

Above Zhixuan is the Vajra Realm, and the source of true energy in the dantian of Qihai can form a natural strange aura in the body to protect the bones and viscera.

Make the physical body like a diamond, indestructible, unable to break through the aura field, and unable to hurt warriors in the diamond state.

Not like now, to resist attacks, one can only rely on pure qi for defense, and cannot achieve comprehensive defense.

In a sense, there is no flaw in the physical defense of a King Kong warrior.

Unless the attack can break through the Kaigang aura with one blow.

early morning.

It's getting colder.

The cold wind was blowing, and the fallen leaves were blowing everywhere.

Ye Cheng was dressed in single clothes, holding a broom, slowly sweeping the fallen leaves.

Although the cold wind was blowing, the fallen leaves were swept together obediently under the broom.

He is practicing swordsmanship.

The invisible sword intent spread out, and even the cold wind couldn't blow into the area covered by the sword intent.

After a long time, Ye Cheng finished sweeping the ground.

Take a long breath.

A burst of breath shot out from the mouth and nose, unexpectedly filled the surrounding area with a puff of white air, which lasted for a long time.

"Why didn't your highness come?"

Ye Cheng raised his head and looked towards the direction where the noble concubine lived, frowning slightly.

Usually at this time, the little guy has already run over, clamoring to listen to the story.

Ye Cheng put down the broom and dustpan, and staggered towards the courtyard where the imperial concubine lived.

He didn't have the energy to probe.

In this palace, even in the cold palace, one has to be more cautious.

After walking for a few minutes, Ye Cheng came outside the courtyard.

I didn't hear the little guy's noisy voice, it was very quiet.

Ye Cheng hunched over and walked in.

I saw the noble concubine still standing in the courtyard, staring at a tree that had lost all its leaves.

"Miss."

Ye Cheng bowed slightly and said.

The concubine didn't respond.

Ye Cheng didn't care, turned around and walked towards the open room.

Since there is no heating, the room is empty, and the cold wind is blowing very much, not much warmer than outside.

Suddenly, Ye Cheng saw the little prince sleeping on the bed.

His face was slightly red, his eyes were closed, and he sighed from time to time.

"This is a cold infection, do you have a fever?"

Ye Cheng frowned.

With previous memories, he knew that the little prince would sigh like this when he was sleeping with a cold and a fever.

He lightly pressed the little prince's forehead with the back of his hand, it was very hot.

Sure enough, I had a fever.

In the imperial palace outside the cold palace, this kind of cold and fever is nothing, there is a special court doctor to diagnose and treat it, but here is the cold palace, not to mention the imperial doctor, even the medicine is lacking.

"Is this noble concubine really crazy or fake crazy? Why did she let the little prince have a fever?"

Ye Cheng looked outside the house.

The little prince was young, so if he had such a high fever, he was afraid that he would become stupid, or even die of illness in the end.

Therefore, Ye Cheng sent a trace of true energy into the little prince's body, stimulating a few acupuncture points in his body, prompting his body to develop immune resistance against colds and fevers.

However, his true qi tends to be evil and domineering, so the effect will not be too strong.

What's more, injecting too much true energy will actually damage the little prince's body.

If it is the kind of true energy that is neutral and suitable for healing, the effect will be completely different.

He left the room, came to the courtyard, and said to Concubine Xu Gui: "Madam, Your Highness is suffering from a cold and has a high fever. This old slave is now going to pick some herbs and make it for His Highness to drink."

Concubine Xu Gui didn't seem to hear, she still stood still.

Ye Cheng didn't care, walked out of the courtyard, and began to search around the cold palace for herbs that could cure the wind and cold.

The cold palace is huge, and there are wild grass everywhere.

It is also because of this that some medicinal herbs grow.

The little prince was young and frail, and he was able to live to this day because of those herbs.

As an ordinary eunuch, he was able to live to be over 80 years old in the cold palace. Naturally, he also has some knowledge about herbal medicine. At least there is no problem with common colds and fevers.

After some searching, Ye Cheng finally found some herbs.

After returning to the residence, Ye Cheng washed the herbs and prepared to light a fire.

Fire cannot be lit in the cold palace.

There is no means of starting a fire.

The predecessors used to mash the herbs, then add a small amount of water, filter out the juice, and take it. The effect of such a medicinal liquid must not be boiled well.

Moreover, if the raw water is not boiled and sterilized, the effect will also be reduced.

However, Ye Cheng easily completed the fire by drilling wood and ignited the dry grass.

It is definitely impossible to replace it with the original body.

After boiling the herbal medicine, Ye Cheng poured it into a jar and walked towards the courtyard where the imperial concubine lived.

Concubine Xu Gui was still standing in front of the tree.

As if it hadn't moved.

"Your Majesty, this old servant boiled some herbs and gave it to His Royal Highness."

Ye Cheng said.

After speaking, he turned and entered the house.

Just as Ye Cheng poured the decoction into a small bowl and was about to feed it to the little prince, Concubine Xu Gui rushed in and kicked the jar down, causing the remaining black and red medicinal liquid in the jar to fall all over the floor, spreading out There was a strong smell of medicine.

"What are you doing, trying to kill my Jing'er?"

Concubine Xu Gui seemed to have gone crazy, baring her teeth and claws, her eyes were full of hostility.

Then she hugged the little prince, not letting Ye Cheng get close at all.

Ye Cheng frowned.

He didn't expect Concubine Xu Gui to react so strongly, like a tigress protecting her calf.

"Your Majesty, the medicine is here, and the old slave will leave first."

Ye Chengjiang bowed slightly and said, he put the porcelain bowl containing the liquid medicine on the table next to him, and then staggered out of the room.

He just pitied the little Highness and did his best.

Moreover, he felt that the imperial concubine's reaction was very strange and something was wrong.

In the past, this body also found herbs for His Highness.

Never had such a big reaction.

Back at his residence, Ye Cheng calmed down, sat down cross-legged, and continued to practice.

Golden Palace.

A morning court is being held.

Sitting high above the main hall, Emperor Qi was dressed in a black dragon robe, with a majestic demeanor.

There are many civil and military ministers standing in the hall below.

An old eunuch stood in front of the hall and shouted in a high-pitched voice: "Play if you have something to do, and leave the court if there is nothing to do."

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the first day of next month will be the royal knighthood day every seven years. Please Your Majesty can confer titles on behalf of the many princes, princesses and clan children who have no titles."

Xu Wenyu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, walked to the center of the hall, bowed slightly, and said loudly.

This seven-year royal knighthood day is very important.

"Well, it is indeed time, Second Emperor Uncle, as the head of the royal family, you are responsible for the number of knighthoods for the clan's children."

Qi Huang said.

"Your Majesty, the list of titles has been drawn up by the minister."

Prince Li, who was wearing a python robe, came out and took out a booklet that he had prepared long ago.

The old eunuch came down, took the booklet, and handed it to Emperor Qi.

After seeing it, Emperor Qi said in a deep voice: "Xu Aiqing, are you prepared for the titles of the princes and daughters?"

"Report to Your Majesty, without your will, the ministers dare not draw it up."

Xu Wenyu quickly bowed and said.

Generally speaking, the titles of princes and princesses are first decreed by the emperor, then drawn up by the Ministry of Rites, and determined after the emperor's selection.

"Then let your Ministry of Rites decide on the title first."

Qi Huang said immediately.

"The minister leads the order."

After Xu Wenyu finished speaking, he retreated among the officials.

At this time, another courtier came out from behind the crowd.

The other ministers were very confused.

This person is just a small seven-rank Metropolitan Procuratorate Censor, barely qualified to participate in the early court.

Generally, if this kind of person plays in court, something big will happen.

"Report to Your Majesty, I have something to do."

After Li Shuyuan saluted respectfully, he said loudly.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Qi Huang said calmly.

"Your Majesty, this royal conferment day is the grace of His Majesty. Many princes, daughters, and clan children are treated as everyone's share. In the past, the abolished concubine gave birth to eight princes, who have been in the cold palace with their mother for five years. For a long time, the status of the prince has not been deprived, so the eighth prince should also be eligible for the throne."

Li Shuyuan said loudly without fear.

These words, like a thunderbolt, made the whole audience quiet.

The faces of many ministers became brighter.

Because Concubine Xu Gui has long been taboo for the emperor.

Who dares to mention this useless concubine?
How beautiful the imperial concubine was five years ago, but how miserable she is now.

Now this little seventh-rank censor mentioned the abolished concubine in the early court, and wanted His Majesty to crown the eighth prince as king?

This must be the remnant forces behind the abandoned concubine ready to move.

Under normal circumstances, it would be almost impossible for the waste imperial concubine to get out of the cold palace alive.

But with the help of this royal knighthood day, there is a chance.

When Emperor Qi put Concubine Xu Gui into the cold palace, he didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and he didn't deprive the eighth prince who was still in his infancy of his status as a prince.

Many people quietly raised their heads to look at His Majesty Qi Huang sitting on the throne, wondering how His Majesty would react.

However, there was no thunder fury as imagined.

Qi Huang's face was very calm.

"That's right."

Qi Huang said.

As soon as this decree came out, the audience was shocked.

Many people speculated, could it be that the censor was ordered by His Majesty?
But it's not right.

If Emperor Qi really wanted to canonize the eighth prince in the cold palace, he didn't need to mention it in the court at all, just write the name of the eighth prince into the canonization list.

There is no need to do this.

It seems that His Majesty is just pushing the boat along the way.

No matter what, the power of the abandoned concubine who planned this matter can be regarded as a big profit.

Once the Eighth Prince is canonized as the king, Concubine Xu Gui, who is the biological mother, will also have to come out of the cold palace.

Even if she doesn't have the status of a noble concubine, she still has a chance to make a comeback.
