Zhu Ji was critically ill. This was a hurricane. The top leaders of the Liang Kingdom became turbulent again. The palace could not be calm. Zhu Ji's health has always been poor and he was addicted to alcohol. It is no secret that the top leaders of the Liang Kingdom were here. Especially since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zhu Ji coughed up blood many times. Everyone could see that Zhu Ji's body was already terminally ill, but no one expected that Zhu Ji's body would deteriorate so much that many people could not react.

The entire palace became in full swing, and eunuchs, palace maids and imperial doctors could be seen everywhere.

When Qiu Minghai came, many people had already come outside the imperial study room, including Mu Ren's mansion, Xiao Teng, Ji Xuan, Fu Tianchou and several other court ministers, as well as the eldest prince Zhu Hongyi, the second prince Zhu Hongji and others. However, these people were waiting outside the imperial study room, and they were faintly divided into three factions, Ji Xuan, Fu Tianchou, Zhu Hongji and others stood together, Xiao Teng was alone, Mu Ren's mansion and the eldest prince Zhu Hongyi. Qiu Minghai didn't say anything, and walked to Mu Ren's mansion and next to Zhu Hongyi.

Everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke, and waited respectfully outside the imperial study room.

"Crazy--"

About a stick of incense was about to be seen, the door of the Yu Study Room was opened, and a eunuch walked out-

"My lords, your Majesty, your Majesty is awake, please come in with me."

In the imperial study, Zhu Ji was lying on the bed, his face pale as paper, his lips were bloodless. In front of the bed was an imperial doctor taking his pulse, and there were Queen Xiao and several eunuchs and palace maids standing next to him. However, it can be seen that the imperial doctor was not in good condition and his face was covered with sweat.

"My son, Hongyi (Hongji), has met his father and mother."

"I pay homage to the king and to the queen..."

Zhu Hongyi, Qiu Minghai and others came in and saluted Zhu Ji on the bed and Queen Xiao beside the bed.

Zhu Ji didn't say anything, lying on the bed, his face was so pale, but he looked at Zhu Hongyi and others with his eyes, his eyes looked empty and unconscious, and he looked critically ill, while Queen Xiao waved his hand-

"Everyone gets up, there's no need to be too polite."

At this time, the imperial physician also helped Zhu Ji finish his pulse.

"Imperial Doctor, how is my father's health?" Zhu Hongyi was the first to speak, looking at the imperial doctor, asking with a concern, and the eyes of others also looked at the imperial doctor, and Zhu Ji's faint eyes also looked over.

"This, this..." The imperial physician was sweating all over his head, as if he was unable to speak.

Seeing this scene, everyone present felt a sank.

"Tell me quickly, how is the father's body?" Zhu Hongji also spoke, anxiously.

"Well, Your Majesty has been weak in his body for a long time and has drunk more alcohol, which has led to his body's weakness and his yang energy. Now that the qi and blood are dying, his pulse is weak, I'm afraid..."

The imperial physician trembled slightly, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. When he said this, he didn't dare to say anything anymore. As an imperial physician, he personally treated Zhu Ji. He naturally knew Zhu Ji's condition and his body had completely collapsed. Even if he survived this time, he would not survive. However, he would never dare to say these things again. Everyone present was not fools, and he couldn't hear the meaning. To put it bluntly, Zhu Ji was in poor health and was about to die...

"It's nonsense, it's just nonsense. Here's someone. I'll drag this nonsense out and behead me..."

Zhu Hongyi looked furious and shouted directly.

"No, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, I have done my best, Your Highness, Your Highness..."

The imperial physician's face changed drastically when he heard this, with a look of horror. He quickly knelt down and begged for mercy...

"Pull it out and chop it."

Zhu Hongyi shouted loudly, and then saw two soldiers walking in, and dragging them out regardless of the imperial physician's begging for mercy...

"Your Highness, Your Highness, I have done my best, I have done my best..."

The imperial physician's shrill pleading sound came from afar, but no one here paid attention to it. The most ruthless imperial family was the place where the palace was dead. Except for the timid palace maids and eunuchs next to him who were so scared that their faces were a little pale, the others were silent, lowered their heads, and stared at Zhu Ji on the bed from the corner of their eyes. You can see that the host's chest was undulating, and a hint of flush appeared on his pale face, making him look uneasy.

"I, am I going to die like this?" After a long time, Zhu Ji's weak voice sounded, his eyes full of unwillingness: "But, I still want to live a few more years, decades or even hundreds of years. Even Liu Bang can live a hundred years long. I am not willing to accept it..."

"Why do you have to do this? Your Majesty is at the peak of your life and will definitely live for a hundred years." Queen Xiao said.

"Yes, my father was in the prime of spring and autumn, but he was just working hard day and night, and he was too tired. The quack doctor just now talked nonsense, so the son minister went to call the imperial physician to diagnose the father..."

Zhu Hongji said, Zhu Ji didn't speak, and Ji Xuan, Mu Ren's mansion and others next to him would not say much at this sensitive time. Zhu Hongji signaled to a eunuch who narrated you. The latter left. Not long after about half a stick of incense, another imperial physician walked in. His beard was gray and gray. I don't know if he was walking too quickly or because of some reason, his forehead was sweating.

....................................

"Imperial Doctor, how are your father?"

After about a cup of tea, the imperial physician finished Zhu Ji's pulse, and Zhu Hongji couldn't help but speak.

"Your Majesty is weak and his qi and blood are broken. I will prescribe a dose of medicine now, which will help the Your Majesty recover in a short time." The imperial physician said.

"Really." Zhu Hongji looked surprised, and a glimmer of light appeared in Zhu Ji's eyes on the bed.

The imperial physician did not say much, but quickly wrote a pharmacy and handed it to Queen Xiao next to him, and then said-

"But Your Majesty is very weak and his qi and blood are in vain. I can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause. If you want Your Majesty to recover completely, I can do nothing."

"Is there really no way?" Zhu Hongyi asked.

"Forgive me."

The imperial physician bowed his hand, but in fact he didn't say anything in his heart. Zhu Ji probably won't live long, because he knew that Zhu Ji's body had become weak to a point. The prescription he just prescribed was just some body-nourishing, and it could only make Zhu Ji recover temporarily. It might be even more serious in less than half a month. At that time, no one could do anything. In fact, Zhu Ji is just surviving, but he is very smart and knows that this is absolutely impossible. Otherwise, he will lose his head and make sure that Zhu Ji will leave the capital quickly after today and stay away from this place of right and wrong...

The imperial study room fell into dull tranquility again, with a kind of depression that made people feel panicked. Sweat also appeared on the forehead of the imperial physician. He was worried that he would not be like the previous imperial physician...

"Your Majesty, I thought of someone who might be able to save Your Majesty, not only save Your Majesty, but also prolong your life..."

Just then, a sound rang out from the crowd, and it was Qiu Minghai who stood up.

"I wonder if Your Majesty has ever heard of the elixir of immortality." Qiu Minghai said.

"Eternal life." Everyone present changed their faces, and Zhu Ji's eyes burst out in an instant, looking at Qiu Minghai.

"It is said that Qin Shihuang collected magical medicines from all over the world and found alchemists to refine elixirs. Although Qin Shihuang finally bleeds the Yangtze River and elixirs became a legend, but as far as I know, although there are not necessarily elixirs at this time, there are some elixirs that prolong life and increase life span..."

"Longevity and longevity." When Zhu Ji heard Qiu Minghai's words, his face turned a little flushed, and his eyes looked at Qiu Minghai.

"It just so happened that Weichen met a monk named Pudu Cihang back then. He was not only boundless in Buddhism, but also good at refining elixirs. If she had taken action, she could ask for elixirs from her. Your Majesty's illness would definitely be cured and prolonged life..."

"Pudu Cihang, where is this person?" Zhu Ji spoke, his tone seemed a little excited, while the others looked at Qiu Minghai, and Ji Xuan's eyes flashed.

"Pudu Cihang is a Buddhist master who lives on the Xiaoling Mountain in the north. If the time is fast, you can get the elixir in half a month." Qiu Minghai said.

"No matter what, I want you to take the elixir."

"promise!"

Zhu Ji directly ordered, while Qiu Minghai responded in a low voice, his face was very calm and he could not see much change. Mu Ren's mansion, Ji Xuan and others all had different expressions, but the imperial physician breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that no matter what the result was, he had escaped today.

"Okay, everyone should step down, I'm tired..."

"There is a good minister (son) to leave!"

"Have Lord Fu heard of Xiaoling Mountain and Pudu Cihang?" After leaving the imperial study room, at the gate of the palace, Ji Xuan asked Fu Tianchou next to him.

"I don't know either. I have heard of Xiaoling Mountain, but Pudu Cihang has never heard of it. What's wrong? Do you have any doubts about Lord Ji?" Fu Tianchou looked at Ji Xuan.

"No, just ask. As far as Wenyou knows, the battle of self-proclaimed gods, Buddhism rarely appears in the world. Today, there is only one Mingtai Temple in the Han Kingdom. When did there be Buddhist monks in Liang Kingdom?..."

"I don't know this, but since Lord Qiu said that, I think it must be true. As long as Your Majesty gets better, the most important thing is..."
