Even if the snow outside has not completely melted, the Imperial Garden is still a blend of spring and summer.

Dongfang Shuo, Luo Yang and Lao Zu walked into the Summer Lake Pavilion, when Dongfang Shuo looked down, the fish under the lake were still swimming happily, but he thought of the assassin who was pierced by the fish that day, and he couldn't help but feel a little chill down his spine, so he withdrew his gaze from looking at the fish.

"The last time the old man came to the Imperial Garden, it seemed to be as old as you. ”

Suddenly, the ancestor said to Dongfang Shuo.

Dongfang Shuo was stunned for a moment: "This ...... It must have been more than a hundred years, right? The ancestor obviously lives in the deep palace, why don't you come and take a look?"

"When I was a kid, I loved to come. But then, the Imperial Garden has always been a shadow over me. "Old Ancestor Dao," time has passed, although the haze in my heart has long since dissipated, but when I came back to my senses, I hadn't been to Yu Garden for more than 180 years. ”

"One hundred and eighty years?"

Dongfang Shuo was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Weichen doesn't know...... Ancestor Gui Geng this year?"

"No more, no less, exactly two hundred years old. ”

Old Ancestor Dao.

Dongfang Shuo looked at the ancestor in front of him, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotion in his heart.

There is no need to rely on external forces, this is the pure longevity of the ancestor, which is the natural longevity that can be easily achieved by all the powers of the mixed yuan period.

At this time, the ancestor's appearance looked like nothing more than a sixtieth birthday.

"That'...... Isn't it ...... to fall Yang?"

But then, Dongfang Shuo's eyes fell on Luo Yang's body again.

Old Ancestor also took the opportunity to look at Luo Yang, and after smiling, he said, "Senior Brother is younger than me, and it is only because he started earlier than me that I will call him Senior Brother." ”

"Oh, I see. ”

This made Dongfang Shuo a little relieved, it seemed that Luo Yang's age would not be too exaggerated, so he asked, "So, what is Luo Yang's specific age?"

"One hundred and ninety-five?" or one hundred and ninety-six?"

Old Ancestor looked at Luo Yang.

Luo Yang said with an impassive expression: "One hundred and ninety-seven." ”

After getting the exact answer, the ancestor smiled and said, "Look at my memory, I am really old, and I can't accept it." ”

Dongfang Shuo, on the other hand, rolled his eyes in astonishment.

"That's not a few years younger...... Sure enough, Luo Yang's age is still beyond my imagination. After Dongfang Shuo complained, he looked at Luo Yang again and asked, "What about Jian'an, he seems to be younger than Luo Yang, right?"

He ...... One hundred and eighty-three years old. ”

Luo Yang replied.

Dongfang Shuo: "......"

Judging by their appearance, they can't imagine that they are already at this age.

"Could it be...... You and Jian'an are also in the mixed Yuan period?"

Dongfang Shuo asked.

Luo Yang shook his head: "No, Jian An and I are in the refining period." ”

Dongfang Shuo listened and nodded thoughtfully.

If this is the case, then nine times out of ten it is medicine, that is, the longevity pill that the ancestor of the Lu family took.

It's just that there are still some discrepancies, because the ancestor of the Lu family looks thin and old, while Luo Yang and Jian'an look so young, which seems that this possibility can't stand up to scrutiny.

But no matter how they can have a lifespan of nearly two hundred years, this is already an indisputable fact.

"Then Ji Zhaoning is also ......?"

Dongfang Shuo asked.

Luo Yang's face suddenly showed a smile: "Sure enough, did the topic run to Miss Ji again?"

At this time, Lao Zu also laughed: "Three sentences are not separated from Ji Zhaoning, you really haven't changed at all." ”

Dongfang Shuo was stunned.

"Nothing has changed?

He asked, confused.

The ancestor also seemed to realize that he was talking too much, so he smiled kindly, but did not give him any answer.

Treading ......

At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from the entrance of the Imperial Garden, gradually approaching.

The three of them turned their heads in unison and looked at the eunuch who was trotting in.

The eunuch came to the outside of the Xia Lake Pavilion and knelt on the spot.

"The Marquis of Qiyu Shang, the envoy of the prince has arrived. ”

The eunuch said.

And before Dongfang Shuo could speak, the ancestor on the side was stunned for a moment, and asked the eunuch, "What did you call him just now?"

"Shang Guohou. ”

The eunuch did not look up, but immediately replied.

When the ancestor heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then glanced at Luo Yang beside him.

"Who proposed Shang Guo?" asked Old Ancestor.

Luo Yang said: "Your Majesty personally sealed it, no one proposed." ”

Old Ancestor looked puzzled and said, "Your Majesty knows?"

"I didn't know at the time, I told him later. ”

"Oh, and such a miraculous thing?"

The old man was surprised.

Then, he suddenly laughed inexplicably, and Dongfang Shuo was confused.

Laughing, the ancestor said: "Hahaha, it's really a twist, wonderful, wonderful." ”

"I wonder what you're talking about?"

Dongfang Shuo asked, and at the same time, his gaze swept back and forth between the two of them in confusion.

Old Ancestor heard his question, and after looking at Luo Yang, he looked at Dongfang Shuo.

"It's just a bit of old history, you don't have to worry about it. ”

The ancestor arrived.

When Dongfang Shuo heard this, he nodded and didn't ask any more.

If you think about it carefully, these two people are people who have lived for nearly two hundred years, and according to Dongfang Shuo, Shang Guogong left the Longlin Empire about one hundred and eighty years ago, so it is not surprising that there is an intersection between those three people.

So, Dongfang Shuo looked at the eunuch who came to report.

He asked, "Which prince's messenger is it?"

"The Great Prince, the Fifth Prince, the Seventh Prince, and the Eighth Prince, are the four messengers of the Four Princes. ”

The eunuch replied.

After receiving such a reply, Dongfang Shuo was slightly stunned.

At this time, the ancestor stroked his beard and said, "There are only four envoys from the princes, and there are no envoys from the other four princes, this is a bit strange, what are they going to do?"

Dongfang Shuo heard the ancestor's doubts, and suddenly understood something, so he immediately turned around and said, "In fact, there is only one less envoy from the prince. ”

Old Ancestor was stunned: "Why do you say that?"

"Because...... The second, third, and fourth princes have already surrendered to the law because of the mutiny. ”

Oriental Shuo Road.

Old Ancestor looked at Dongfang Shuo and asked, "When?"

"About three months ago. ”

Oriental Shuo Road.

After hearing this, the ancestor nodded.

After a moment of silence, the ancestor sighed with emotion: "They are all very good children, it's a pity." ”

And all the ancestor's comments on this matter are only one sentence, and there is nothing more.

Dongfang Shuo looked at the ancestor, and he didn't know if it was because the ancestor had seen too much of this kind of thing, even if he saw through it, he wouldn't say anything, or because the ancestor didn't plan to delve into this kind of thing.

"But in short, the six princes did not send an envoy, which is very revealing. ”

Dongfang Shuo looked at the eunuch in front of him again, "Lead the way, let's go see the four messengers." ”
