Empress Mi Benji

Chapter 194 The Death of King Yu

Zhuang Xun fooled him and continued to sleep with He Tan Meimei in his arms. Bi Yuewu had so many thoughts in her heart that it was hard to say what she was looking at Zhuang Xun sleeping.

"Sleep, sleep, sleep, like a pig that only knows how to sleep in one day." She still felt something was wrong, and she couldn't tell what was wrong, so she could only curse a few words.

"He was tired yesterday. Master, please don't scold Brother Xun." He Tan covered Zhuang Xun's ears with his sleeves, which seemed to be a cover-up.

"Who told him to show off his talents and drink like that? It's all fairy wine and fairy wine, and he doesn't know how to exercise restraint."

Bi Yuewu thought about it. Yesterday, Zhuang Xun did deal with the siege of a group of immortals. In full view of everyone, she couldn't pretend to drink. In the end, she could only pretend to sleep, but she couldn't say anything soft.

"After all, Xingjun and Shangxian are toasting, it would be rude if Brother Xun doesn't answer." Bi Yuewu felt that Zhuang Xun was tired for this reason, so let her think so.

He Tan said considerately, with a pitiful expression on Zhuang Xun, that's why he drank a little. After all, Zhuang Xun was so weak from drinking yesterday that he didn't want to move. In the end, it was she and Li Rusi who were allowed to move by Zhuang Xun.

"Forget it, let him sleep. Are you hiding something from me?" Bi Yuewu paused for a while, looking at He Tan's smiling and happy expression, she couldn't help but say.

"How could it be? I just asked my brother yesterday and he said some true words after drinking. Now he feels happy."

He Tan didn't shy away from it and expressed her thoughts tactfully. She felt like she fit into a part of Zhuang Xun's circle. This was probably her natural advantage.

"What are you telling the truth, you want to hide it from me?" Bi Yuewu raised her beautiful eyebrows and looked at He Tan, full of curiosity.

"That's just a whisper in the boudoir. You have to wait until Brother Xun tells you. I won't hesitate to answer."

He Tan pushed and handed the answer to Zhuang Xun, with a shy look on his face.

"The words of the boudoir..." Bi Yuewu thought of what Zhuang Xun said and fell silent.

What kind of boudoir talk had Zhuang Xun said to her? They were not good words. They were full of the superiority of a conqueror. The few good words he said had the connotation of tarnishing her. She suddenly wanted to hear what Zhuang Xun said to He Tan about the boudoir. Whisper.

She didn't expect Zhuang Xun to do any flowery things. After all, he experimented with a lot of flowery things on her, although most of them were relatively simple.

So she had no idea what was going on that could make He Tan so happy, and she felt out of place. Bi Yuewu turned into a wisp of smoke and flew out of the carriage.

The convoy went east along the avenue, and the white snow scenery stretched for thousands of miles. The leader, Li Rusi, was not afraid of the severe cold. She sat on her horse and let the horse move forward slowly. However, she was absent-minded. Bi Yuewu's heart felt like a cat scratching it. , but if you ask Li Rusi, you will most likely get the same answer as He Tan, so she just watches from the air.

The north wind is howling, and it’s time to reach the solar terms led by the seven constellations in the north. The seven constellations in the east represent spring, the seven constellations in the south represent summer, the seven constellations in the west represent autumn, and the seven constellations in the north represent winter.

So they just played a supporting role. Thinking of the Northern Qisu, Bi Yuewu had a headache. The Northern Qisu were more conservative and not as easy to fool as the Western Qisu. No, they were really serious.

Fortunately, none of the supervisory functions of Northern Qisu were necessary, which made her feel better. The most important thing now was to get Xinyuehu into this team, so as to form an army that could rival Zhao.

She finally flew into the sky, controlling the heavy snow not to take care of Zhuang Xun's convoy, but staying away so that Zhuang Xun and the others could travel more easily.

In the sky, people on the ground were squirming like black dots. She was used to it. She just looked more in the direction of Zhuang Xun. The black dots on the carriage were larger, and to see if there was anyone trying to harm Zhuang Xun, ambush or the like. .

She looked at the carriages and horses casually, and then a fast-moving black spot caught her attention, because the direction was towards Zhuang Xun.

Zhuang Xun was walking on a galloping road, and despite the people coming and going, the black spot was still very fast. In such a winter, riding so fast must be something urgent.

So she lowered her head, and after a while, a messenger arrived, bringing unexpectedly shocking news, which shook Zhuang Xun awake.

"King Yu is critically ill."

The content of the message shocked Zhuang Xun. He could no longer sway slowly to Xihe County, and the entire team immediately sped up.

Not long after he was happy, he started to feel sad. Zhuang Xun was still in a hurry. After all, King Yu treated him well and he still wanted to see him one last time.

Still afraid of not being able to make it in time, Zhuang Xun got on Li Rusi's horse, hugged Li Rusi's waist, and the two of them rode towards Xihe.

He didn't feel charming. The cold wind made Zhuang Xun's face feel cold and frozen. Bi Yuewu took a silk scarf and put it on Zhuang Xun's cheek, but it was still bright red.

The fine snow on his head had not yet melted, and his whole body was very cold and miserable. Zhuang Xun had no time to recover, so when he returned to Xihe County, he walked straight into Prince Yu's room, fearing that he would leave early and lose sight of him.

As soon as Zhuang Xun entered the door, the group knelt down. Master Ge was there, as well as relatives such as King Yanghua. Zhuang Xun was now the monarch of the entire Xia Kingdom, and they wanted to salute Zhuang Xun.

Zhuang Xun was very anxious and shouted casually, "Get up." He quickly came to the hospital bed and looked at King Yu who was looking at the oily and dry lamp.

"Your Majesty, I am sick, so I cannot salute you." King Yu said reluctantly. His eyes were dull, his skin was wrinkled, his eye sockets were sunken, and he was completely lifeless. There was a rotten death air spreading all over his body.

"Your Majesty, what time has it been? You are still talking about these red tapes. It is important to take care of yourself." Zhuang Xun sat next to the bed.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern. I'm ashamed to ask Your Majesty to come from Yindu despite your busy schedule."

Looking at Zhuang Xun's face that was blown red by the cold wind and the fine snow on his head, King Yu was a little moved. Zhuang Xun did not forget the old man even if he was in a position of great wealth. This kind of dusty life is not a show. Zhuang Xun's current status is also No need for drama.

"That's right. I haven't forgotten that it's only because of His Majesty's support that I am what I am today." Zhuang Xun said gratefully. At the beginning, King Yu's help was really without asking for anything in return, and there were all kinds of help later on.

"That's because of your own efforts. Don't call yourself me. You should call me and I. You are the emperor of the Xia Kingdom. It's a pity that I didn't give you the complete Yu Kingdom, so you don't have to run around like this."

King Yu felt guilty and said why he woke up so late and only came up with this idea after the division of power. Now Zhuang Xun has been given a torn Yu country.

"Stop talking, I have said it before. I am already very grateful to Your Majesty. Without Your Majesty's support, I might still be scheming with the squires in a certain county or working as an accountant in Chengguo or Zhaoguo."

Zhuang Xun had heard King Yu say it several times before, which shows that this matter has become a concern for King Yu.

"Moreover, there are many large and complete families in the Yu Kingdom. It's better to be like this now. It would be more advantageous to defeat them and eliminate the large families."

Zhuang Xun comforted him by saying that in order to make King Yu's life easier, if he could really obtain the entire territory of Yu State, it would be best to obtain the entire territory of Yu State. If he could not do so, he would not be upset.

"Oh, Your Majesty, you don't need to comfort me. This is my fault. I sacrificed an empty piece of soil for you to worry about, leaving you with such a mess for you to clean up."

King Yu still knew very well what the value of this mess was. Fortunately, King Yanghua surrendered, otherwise he would be quite shameless. "I have written to these two traitors, but they are still stubborn. Your Majesty, don't be polite to them from now on."

When he thought of King Yanghua, he thought of King Henan and King Donghua. They resisted the decree and showed no respect, and now they openly defied Zhuang Xun and refused to acknowledge his concession. King Yu was very angry.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. It's not good for your health. These two people will take care of it. Sooner or later, don't get angry and ruin your health. Only by staying healthy and long can you see their destruction."

Zhuang Xun comforted him, because King Yu's anger was real, so he agreed to replace King Yu and teach the independent King of Donghua and King Henan a lesson.

"I can't see it anymore. I know my current body best. I originally had a lifespan of at most half a year to a year after ten thousand years of life. It was because I had to pave the way for the Holy One, and I took life-extending supplements to extend my lifespan by a few more years."

Having said this, King Yu was also a little tired. In the past few years, it can be said that he has regained the feeling of his youth, fighting against aristocratic families and princes, protecting the prince in his heart to inherit the throne.

"Your Majesty, you have worked so hard, is there nothing you can do?" Zhuang Xun felt the same as King Yu's fatigue. Zhuang Xun's fighting environment was also very bad, but Si Qinmi and Li Rusi were highly capable, and he was slightly better, and he I'm young, so I can't feel anything.

"What else can I do? Yu Guo's strength has been exhausted. This was caused by myself. It's too late to say anything now. But it's good to have you. It's good to have you. You're better than my useless sons. You can destroy the country." I will rest assured that the legal system will be left to you."

The time suddenly returned to six or seven years ago, when he cut off the emperor's veins, transformed into a demon, and evaded interrogation by the underworld. Now his plan is done and cannot be changed.

It was also the first time I saw Zhuang Xun, and I could vaguely feel how extraordinary he was. The dragon hovered over his head. At that time, I felt that he was a talent, so I treated him favorably. Thinking about it now, it is really a blessing.

King Yanghua was embarrassed to say anything and lowered his head. He had seen Zhuang Xun before, but he still couldn't step down due to such a strong comparison, but there was no need for him to step down as no one paid attention to him.

"I will definitely restore the Yu Kingdom, eliminate the big families, lighten the people's burden, and let the people live and work in peace and contentment." Zhuang Xun promised that King Yu pushed himself to the throne for merit, and Zhuang Xun naturally knew how to repay him.

That is to govern the country well, which can be regarded as accumulating merit for King Yu and helping him to practice better.

"Destroy the great family. You are more courageous and capable than me. You are indeed born to be an emperor. Even if I don't promote you, you can still make a great career. I will be a tyrant trying to block the car."

King Yu's eyes shone brightly. The rebellion that was initially just to restrict the big family interrupted all reform processes and almost caused him to lose the throne.

He hated the big aristocratic families so much that he wanted to eat the flesh of these people and his confidence was shattered. Now someone said that he wanted to destroy these aristocratic families. King Yu felt as if he was letting out a bad breath.

"Your Majesty, please don't say any more, rest more, rest more." Seeing the way he looked back to the light, Zhuang Xun secretly cried out.

"If I don't rest, I will endure this breath until you, the Holy One, come. After you finish speaking, it's time for me to leave."

Wang Qiang straightened up, sat on the bed, waved his hand and said to the people around him: "You go down, leave Inspector Shen and the Imperial Master behind, and I will explain some things."

After hearing this, the others slowly exited the room, leaving Zhuang Xun and Yu Wangming alone.

"Your Majesty, do you have anything to explain?" After everyone left, Zhuang Xun felt a little heavy.

"The first is Inspector Shen. He is loyal and a good expert in intelligence. He knows all the people in the Inspection Department and has the information about Yu State. This is my last strength. Now I leave it to you, Inspector Shen. From now on, I will work with the Holy Master."

King Yu pointed at Shen Liazhen, who quickly knelt down and saluted Zhuang Xun.

"Your Majesty, Chen Lianzhen, pays homage to the Holy One." Changing the hilltop, this occasion was regarded as King Yu endorsing him to join Zhuang Xun's staff. Zhuang Xun would also reuse him for King Yu's sake in the future. This was regarded as a reward for his loyalty.

"Aiqing, please wake up. I was worried about the information about King Donghua and King Henan. Shen Aiqing's arrival has solved the urgent need."

Zhuang Xun gently helped Shen Lianzhen up. What he said was correct. The intelligence organization he established was now beginning to bear fruit, but the previous intelligence network had indeed made up for his shortcomings.

"Inspector Shen, please go down. I have something to say to the Holy Master and the Imperial Master." After explaining Shen Lianzhen's affairs, King Yu asked him to step aside.

"Follow your orders." Shen Lianzhen was very understanding and backed away.

"The person I am most sorry for is you, the Imperial Preceptor. You still remember my bold words and ambitions at the time. Looking at them now, it is really ridiculous. You have to let the Imperial Preceptor work hard."

King Yu confessed that at the beginning, Ge Laodao was still willing to assist him because he saw that he had the potential to be a king. Even though the Yu State's family was no longer powerful, he was still willing to assist him. Now that the Yu State has fallen into pieces, he has to bear most of the responsibility.

"It's okay, Your Majesty. It's over. It's all over. My lack of experience in politics is all over. Moreover, you abdicated the throne. The Xia Kingdom is doing well. Thanks to His Majesty King Tuxia, I have saved my life."

Ge Laodao had a good attitude. He presided over the abdication ceremony and attached himself to the new dynasty. It was not that his country was in ruins and he had no protection, and his vitality was severely damaged, but he barely managed to save his life.

He was now like Xuannv, who was seriously injured, even if it was not fatal. He should have been in seclusion, but in order to spend more time with King Yu who was running out of time, he was afraid, so he reluctantly suppressed the injury.

"That's good. The Imperial Advisor is a man of great ability, so please make sure to use it seriously," King Yu recommended.

"Of course, the Imperial Master has also helped me many times. I am someone who misses my old relationship."

Zhuang Xun assured that Ge Laodao had rescued him several times and recommended him in front of King Yu, allowing him to stay in Yindu and finally turning danger into good fortune.

"..." Ge Laodao did not say anything. He knew that Zhuang Xun had gathered many capable people around him, but he did not refuse in front of King Yu.

"Finally, I want to talk to His Majesty alone." King Yu explained these two things, feeling much more relaxed and speaking faster and faster.

Ge Laodao left, leaving room for the two of them to talk.

"As a dying man, I would like to ask where the holy emperor obtained the golden imperial veins and why he came to the Yu Kingdom."

This was the biggest confusion after knowing that Zhuang Xun had imperial bloodline. He wanted to know.

For this reason, Zhuang Xun didn't mind talking about his own country, but a world was too exaggerated, so he only said that he was overseas.

"..."

"It's a pity that I live in such an advanced environment, but my mind is still obsessed with pleasure, and I feel a little ashamed of my ancestors."

"It's already very good. It's changing. It's already changing. It's not a dream to have everyone fed and clothed. Good, good, good."
