When the emperor heard that Taoist Master Xuanjing was coming, the emperor's face was slightly relaxed and he changed his mouth: "Come in quickly."

Eunuch Ni breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly went to welcome Xuan Jing in person.

Xuan Jing was still wearing a simple black Taoist robe, with her hair raised by a bamboo hairpin, and the wide clothes swayed gently with his steps, making her look like a fairy-like Taoist trait.

Xuan Jing was holding a mahogany carved box in his hand, and first bowed to the emperor, and then presented the box, "Emperor, the first furnace of nine-level pills has been practiced, I will present it to the emperor."

The emperor's eyes lit up, and his eyes were bright, and he quickly came up.

Eunuch Ni took the box and presented it to the emperor. As soon as the box opened, there was an instant smell like sandalwood and bamboo fragrance in the room.

The emperor felt refreshed just after smelling it.

Xuan Jing shook the whisk and smiled and suggested, "Your Majesty, why not take medicine now? Can I protect the Dharma for you?"

This proposal is exactly the same as the emperor's wishes, so I hurriedly asked someone to give a seat to Master Xuan Jing.

Eunuch Ni asked someone to get a cup of warm water for the emperor, and took a big red nine-level pill for the emperor. The emperor swallowed it in the water, then sat by the window with his eyes closed.

Xuan Jing sat cross-legged on a cushion, with silver whisk hanging on one side, her eyes closed, looking at the solemn and sacred.

Eunuch Ni held his breath and didn't even dare to breathe for a moment, for fear of disturbing the emperor.

In a moment, the emperor felt his body getting hotter and fine beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.

Eunuch Ni looked at the emperor without blinking, and did not dare to wipe the emperor's sweat.

Finally, after half a cup of tea, the emperor opened his eyes, and his eyes were full of energy, as if he had suddenly become a few years younger.

"The Taoist priest is really an immortal!" The emperor was in a good mood and praised repeatedly, "Since I took the Jiuyou Jindan, my health has been getting better and better, and my energy has become more and more vigorous, as if I was back to my twenty years old."

"This nine-level pill is even more extraordinary. I only now know what it means to cleanse marrow and tendons, and to be reborn!"

The emperor only felt relieved, and all the fatigue and depression that had just passed were wiped out.

Xuan Jing also opened her eyes and still sat cross-legged on the cushion, neither arrogant nor impatient, with a bit of a paranormal smell.

"The emperor praised it." Xuan Jing smiled and said, "The Tao follows nature, it is the emperor that you have a fairy fate."

The emperor only felt that Xuan Jing was right and made him feel more comfortable.

Only then did Eunuch Ni wipe the emperor's forehead with confidence and then served tea for both the emperor and Xuanjing.

After the emperor took a sip of tea, the topic turned to Gu Jue, "Master, how is Gu Jue's illness?"

Xuan Jing took out an ancient tortoise shell and six copper coins from his sleeve, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, let me divine it."

He put the six copper coins into the brown turtle shell, then sealed the mouth with his right hand, closed his eyes and raised the turtle shell high, and shook it gently.

The sound of copper coins hitting the turtle shell echoed clearly in the imperial study.

After Xuan Jing shook the turtle shell four or five times, he gently poured out the copper coins inside...

In the imperial study, there was silence, and the emperor and Eunuch Ni were both staring at Xuan Jing's every move.

I heard a few birds flying past with their wings outside the window, playing with each other.

Xuan Jing looked at the copper coins and murmured to himself: "Hui Gua, Tianshui Gua, the road is bumpy... The sixth and fourth lines are also called blood lines, blood light disasters... waiting for a turn."

After a moment, Xuan Jing raised his head and said solemnly: "Emperor, King Chen is seriously ill and has died for a lifetime. It is the appearance of "living in a desperate place."

He stroked his beard inexplicably, and a light flashed through his eyes.

He also accidentally learned that the people from the Chen Prince's Mansion were looking for famous doctors in Jiangnan. In order to win the emperor's trust, he said it through the hexagram. For this reason, the emperor trusted him more and repeatedly asked him to enter the palace and asked him to open the furnace to refine alchemy.

The emperor's face calmed down, thinking that Xuan Jing was too accurate.

Gu Jue is seriously ill, and the miracle doctor in Jishitang is just a liar. Logically speaking, she should not be able to cure Gu Jue, but what if Gu Jue is as the hexagram says, it will make Gu Jue "a life of death".

The emperor put the teacup heavily on the coffee table. The impact was so shocking that Eunuch Ni was so excited that the whisk in his hand almost didn't take off.

The emperor was very unhappy: Why is Gu Jue's life so good? He can't die of a blood disaster like Xue Yao, and he will continue to hinder his eyes and block his way!

The air around also became colder.

Xuan Jing picked up his beard and looked at the hexagram again, as if he hesitated: "But..."

"But what?" the emperor was anxious and asked quickly.

"According to this hexagram, King Chen is at the moment of life and death. As long as he takes a wrong step, a glimmer of hope will be destroyed..." Xuan Jing said all the words ambiguously.

The emperor narrowed his sharp eyes, concentrating on the meaning of Xuan Jing's words, and silently chanted in his heart: As long as he takes a wrong step, a glimmer of hope will be destroyed...

When Master Xuanjing saw the emperor silent, he said inexplicably: "Human destiny is destined by heaven, everything has its own destiny..."

The emperor's eyes sterned.

God is destined?! He is the emperor and can move against the heaven!

Destiny is destined to heaven?! He has to weaken Gu Jue's destiny...

Wait, weaken your fate!

The emperor thought of something and was about to ask Xuan Jing again. At this moment, Xiang Feilian was beaten up, and a young servant in blue came in, looking like he was eager to speak but stopped.

The emperor immediately guessed something, his face became even more ugly, as if a storm was about to come.

Xuan Jing knew how to look at his face and tactfully said: "The emperor has government affairs, so I won't bother the emperor."

The young servant in the green clothes then reported: "Emperor, Your Highness, Your Highness, will not come."

He swallowed and lowered his head. He didn't see King Chen at all. The people from King Chen's mansion sent him with a word "No".

The emperor became even more annoyed, and his fists were clenched tightly into fists, feeling like an angry dragon roaring and rolling in his chest.

Over the past two months, he has announced Gu Jue again and again, but Gu Jue ignored him and did not take him seriously, Emperor Daqi.

He wants to go in person!

"Prepare the palace of Prince Chen!" the emperor said angrily and walked out of the imperial study room with great strides.

But before he left, the emperor changed his mind again and suppressed his unhappiness.

"Go to Zhongcui Palace!" The emperor changed direction temporarily and went to Zhongcui Palace of Concui Chu.

The emperor hadn't come to Zhongcui Palace for a long time. Concubine Chu was overjoyed and hurriedly inserted an additional five-phoenix sun-blazed hairpin between her hair. She put a smile on her mirror and then went to welcome the saint.

The emperor's arrival made the entire Zhongcui Palace happy, and the palace maids and servants were all busy. Some brought tea, fruit and snacks, some added ice basins to the east side hall, and some fanned them...

After the emperor took a sip of tea, he couldn't wait to get to the topic: "A few days ago, I saw Nan Zhao bringing your two nieces in the Imperial Garden..."

Concubine Chu thought and her eyelashes trembled, "The eldest sister-in-law of that day brought her two nieces to the palace to visit her, so she asked the second prince to take them to the imperial garden to appreciate the flowers."

While Concubine Chu was speaking, a trace of thought flashed across her eyes: Could it be for Chu Qianchen that the emperor suddenly mentioned this matter?

As Chu Guifei guessed, the emperor did come for Chu Qianchen.

"What do you think of your second niece?" the emperor asked casually while brushing away the foam from the tea soup with a cover.

Concubine Chu felt a little nervous. Her son mentioned to her that he wanted to beg his father to marry him and Chu Qianchen. At that time, she coaxed her son not to look for his father for now. Could it be that his son was still begging her to his father for the back?!

It must be that fox spirit Chu Qianchen coaxed his son!

Concubine Chu said in her heart that she covered the strange color in her eyes, so she sighed in difficulty, as if she wanted to speak, but stopped: "My second nieces are my eldest brother's concubine..."

Her intention was to remind the emperor that the identity of the concubine's daughter must be insufficient to be the prince's and concubine.

"I heard from my sister-in-law that she has always been taciturn and has a soft-hearted personality. She just makes some girls and girls at home, and she doesn't leave the house on weekdays."

"This child is filial, because Sister Huang went to the palace to be a companion for the third princess, and she often went to my sister-in-law to serve her. My sister-in-law liked her so much, and even took her with her when she entered the palace. I looked at Sister Huang and wanted to let her go."

Concubine Chu spoke in a tactful and subtle manner, as if she was a bit of joke.

She didn't say that Chu Qianchen was not good at all. At first glance, it seemed to be a safeguard. In fact, every word and sentence are all profound. It is said that Chu Qianchen took advantage of Chu Qianhuang's absence and took advantage of the situation, pretending to be filial to his mother, and even trying to steal the limelight of the eldest sister.

However, the more difficult Concubine Chu said, the more satisfied the emperor was, and the corners of his lips were raised. That would be better!

The emperor put down the teacup, opened the folding fan with his own hands, and slowly slapped it. The words that Xuan Jing said on that day sounded again in his ears: "Some people are strong when they meet strong people, and weak when they meet weak people. If she meets bad people, she will also weaken the other party's fate."

Interesting! This Chu Qianchen is really "not bad".

Concubine Chu had been observing the changes in the emperor's expression, and was a little confused about the emperor's attitude, and tentatively said: "Emperor, what was she rude that day?"

The emperor casually said "Never", with a cold expression. At this time, he remembered the gilded sachet in Chu Qianhuang's hand that day, and praised him casually: "Your big niece is pretty good."

When Concubine Chu heard that the emperor praised Chu Qianhuang, she didn't have any good words to Chu Qianchen. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief and followed the emperor's words: "Yes, Sister Huang is a good person who has been growing up since childhood.

It seems that the imperial concubine really liked her, her eldest niece, as a concubine for the second prince. The emperor thought he understood what Concubine Chu meant, and said "yes".

At this point, Concubine Chu turned the topic to Gu Nanzhao's homework and said a lot of good things to his son without any trace.

The emperor's left ear came in and right ear came out, and his eyes looked out the window again, looking in the direction of the King Chen's Mansion.

It is not far from the Wanbao Festival, and he can't wait to give Gu Jue a great gift.

The news that the King Chen Mansion had closed the door to thank the guests was spread to everyone in the capital within two days.

Recalling the previous rumors that King Chen was seriously ill, many people were originally half-believing and half-doubted, but now they think it's almost the next ten. King Chen is afraid that his life is really in danger.

King Chen held the Northern Army and completely drove Chi Di out of the territory of the Great Qi. In recent years, his prestige in the people and army of the Great Qi Dynasty was close to the emperor, and his survival would inevitably have a huge impact on the changes in the dynasty.

Many court officials saw the opportunity from this and were eager to try it out, including the Yongding Hou Chu Lingxiao.

However, no matter how big ambition Chu Lingxiao had, he could do nothing and could only pin his hopes on his son.
