Tang Xi: "Although the effect of this bead is good, it only has a one-month effect. ”

The old emperor's face changed suddenly, "What did you say?" Only a month? ”

"Yes, but" Tang Xi's voice was interrupted excitedly by the old emperor, "but what? ”

Tang Xi secretly rolled her eyes, she could have said it in one breath, "A month later is the next auspicious day of the zodiac, if no one disturbs at that time, the folk girl can make an elixir for the body." ”

When the old emperor heard this, his face softened, "That being the case, I will immediately ask people to prepare a separate courtyard for the masters now, so as to ensure that no one dares to disturb the Tang masters." After that, the old emperor looked at Gonggong Li, "Don't go quickly." ”

"Wait, the courtyard where the Minnu currently lives is very suitable for refining medicine, and the Minnu doesn't plan to move out." Tang Xi didn't want to move around, how troublesome. But now the people in the courtyard probably take her as a thorn in their side, and she is not afraid of dealing with her, so she is worried about secretly stumbling on Ah Ming.

"Oh? In order to refine the elixir before, I found some pharmaceutical experts from the people, but now it seems that they are of little use. A trace of malice flashed in the old emperor's eyes, "Gonggong Li, let's expel them all from the palace later." ”

Tang Xi hooked his lips and smiled, not missing the killing intent in the old emperor's eyes, "That's fine, but in this month's time, the emperor must remember to abstain from sex and killing." "Although those Taoist priests didn't feel very good about her, she wouldn't let those people die like that. After all, it's all life, and those people didn't have time to do anything to her.

The old emperor frowned a little angrily, but in order to be immortal, what is it to endure for a month. "Yes, I see." With that, he glanced at Gong Li.

Gonggong Li suddenly realized in his heart, originally the emperor was going to kill all those 'masters' in refining medicine, but since Tang Xi said so, he definitely can't do this now.

But it's impossible to just let go of those 'masters' in refining medicine so simply!

Tang Xi didn't see the eyebrows of Gonggong Li and the old emperor, and pulled Ah Ming to retire.

Half a month later, the old emperor held a banquet and asked Tang Xi to attend as well.

Tang Xi saw two unexpected people at this banquet, one was the princess of the neighboring country, and the other was the abuse of the year. Zheng Zefeng, who had been in Shui Mei'er, didn't expect Zheng Zefeng to arrive in the capital so soon, she thought it would be a few more months. But that's fine, it's time for her to give back something to Zheng Zefeng.

When she appeared, the princess of the neighboring country was snuggling up to the old emperor, and the two were sweetly playing a game of feeding. Tang Xi raised his eyebrows, he never thought that the princess of the neighboring country would come to be the wife of the old emperor.

But like the old emperor this color. Ghosts, when you meet a beauty, you will definitely not let go. But this month he is pitiful, he can only eat tofu occasionally, and he can't act openly.

The old emperor was obviously in a good mood when he saw Tang Xi, "This is the alchemy master beside me, Tang Xi." ”

Zheng Zefeng was talking to the people around him, but the moment he turned his head and saw Tang Xi's appearance, the wine glass in his hand fell to the ground.

The old emperor seemed to have a good feeling for Zheng Zefeng, and he didn't get angry because of his rudeness, but teased: "Zhuang Yuanlang has drunk too much?" Can't hold your glass? ”

Zheng Zefeng picked up the wine glass, reluctantly pulled the corners of his lips and replied: "Today's Tianzi is drunk well, and the minister inadvertently drank a few more glasses." He turned his gaze to Tang Xi, "I don't know where this master beside the emperor is?" ”

As soon as Zheng Zefeng asked, the old emperor suddenly realized that he didn't know anything about Tang Xi, "The master never seems to have said his origin, could it be that he came from Penglai Immortal Island in the southeast?" ”

"No, the folk girl is actually from the deep sea." Although Tang Xi was answering the old emperor's words, his eyes looked at Zheng Zefeng. Since Zheng Zefeng came to die by herself, she would not let go of such a good opportunity.

Zheng Zefeng remembered what happened at the beginning, and a trace of murder flashed in his eyes, "So, Tang Gaoren is a mermaid?" ”

"Everyone thinks that only mermaids and other sea creatures can live in the deep sea, but they don't know that humans can too." Tang Xi did not refute Zheng Zefeng's words, but he also did not admit it.

"Oh? This is a new thing, but the masters can even refine the elixir of life, and it is naturally not difficult to live in the deep sea. The old emperor looked at Tang Xi with interest, and a trace of greed flashed in his eyes. If he could live in the deep sea, wouldn't he be able to catch mermaids at will?

Although the princess of the neighboring country is beautiful, she can't compare to the mermaid in the depths of the sea.

Tang Xi smiled and didn't speak, and walked straight to Xiao Hanbei's side and sat down.

At this time, Zheng Zefeng spoke again, "I heard that eating the meat of a mermaid can also lead to immortality, but I don't know if there is mermaid meat in the medicine of the masters?" ”

Hearing this, a trace of anger flashed in Xiao Hanbei's eyes, and he was about to speak, but was stopped by Tang Xi. "I don't know where did Champion Lang hear this? Is there a basis for this? ”

It turned out that the mermaid's meat could grow immortal after eating it, but it actually came from Zheng Zefeng's mouth? Tang Xi raised his eyes to look at Zheng Zefeng, and the smile on the corner of his lips loomed.

For some reason, Zheng Zefeng suddenly felt a chill around him, he pinched the corner of the table, raised his eyes and looked at Tang Xi. "It's been recorded in ancient books, probably someone tried it in the past."

The old emperor was immediately aroused, although Tang Xi said that he could refine the elixir of life, but he had to wait for another half a month. What if half a month later, the bamboo basket is empty?

If there was a new way, why didn't he give it a try. It's just that no one seems to be able to catch mermaids anymore these days, and those mermaids seem to have disappeared from the world all at once.

The old emperor suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he turned his head to look at Tang Xi, "Since the master lives in the deep sea, he must have seen mermaids from time to time, right?" ”

Tang Xi's heart moved, and he suddenly thought of a way to deal with Zheng Zefeng. "Yes, the emperor wants to eat mermaid meat?"

The old emperor stroked his beard, "I just don't want to see Tang Gaoren fail in refining medicine." ”

"The emperor can rest assured, he only needs to wait for half a month." Tang Xi said, took out an old book with a blue cover and looked at it. Whoever asked her the next question, she didn't answer at all.

After the dinner, Xiao Hanbei dragged Tang Xi to a remote rockery. "Zheng Zefeng knows you?" The words that Zheng Zefeng said just now were all aimed at Tang Xi. The only possibility is that Zheng Zefeng knows that Tang Xi is a mermaid.

"Well, I was caught by him once before in Youhe, and then escaped." Tang Xi grabbed Xiao Hanbei's hand and found that his hand was trembling slightly, "What's wrong?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Tang Xi was hugged into Xiao Hanbei's arms, "I won't let anyone hurt you again!" "Why, why didn't he know Tang Xi earlier.

If she had known her earlier, she would not have been arrested by Zheng Zefeng. He naturally knows how valuable the mermaid is, and he also understands what the person who captured the mermaid will do to the mermaid.

Is his Tang Xi also forced to sing day and night?

"Well, I believe you. You don't have to worry, I escaped before he could do anything to me, and I beat him up. Tang Xihui hugged Xiao Hanbei, and the corners of his lips were raised.

Three days later, Tang Xi bumped into Zheng Zefeng again in the Imperial Garden. This time, it was Tang Xi who did it on purpose, and she made a special trip here to wait for Zheng Zefeng.

Zheng Zefeng directly pointed out Tang Xi's identity this time, he glared at Tang Xi angrily, "I didn't expect you to be able to turn the tail of the fish directly into legs, no wonder the current mermaid is so difficult to catch." ”

"You want mermaids?" Tang Xi slowly approached Zheng Zefeng, and also took the opportunity to help him straighten his clothes. Zheng Zefeng looks like he came over at once, probably in a hurry to see the old emperor?

Zheng Zefeng narrowed his eyes, looked at Tang Xi suspiciously, and asked instead of answering, "What do you want to do?" ”

Tang Xi smiled at Zheng Zefeng, and while he was stunned for a moment, Tang Xi quickly stuffed a red pill into his mouth. This is what she has carefully made for Zheng Zefeng in the past two days, so let him have a good taste of what it means to treat others in the way of others.

The pill melted in his mouth, Zheng Zefeng clutched his throat and looked at Tang Xi in disbelief, "What did you give me!" ”

Tang Xi looked at him seriously, "What else can there be, the elixir of life." ”

How could Zheng Zefeng believe this, he bent down and retched for a minute, and found that he couldn't vomit anything, so he raised his hand angrily and wanted to hit Tang Xi.

At this time, Gonggong Li's voice came from behind him, "Lord Zheng, why are you here?" The emperor is still waiting for you. After getting closer, Gonggong Li found Tang Xi, and hurriedly showed a flattering smile, "The master is also here, but the master is looking for Lord Zheng for something?" ”

Tang Xi said indifferently: "I just came to enjoy the flowers, and by the way, I chatted with Master Zheng for a few words." The emperor is looking for Lord Zheng, but is there something urgent? Can I follow along, I recently made a new medicine and want to take it to the emperor. As he spoke, Tang Xi took out a small porcelain vase.

Gonggong Li saw that there was really medicine, so where did he dare to refuse, "The emperor is looking for Lord Zheng to talk about the past, and since the master has something, let's go over together." ”

Tang Xi took two steps forward and walked to Zheng Zefeng's side, "I see, then let's go over." ”

Zheng Zefeng looked at Tang Xi beside him from time to time, but although he took the medicine, his body did not react, and he couldn't help but beat a little in his heart.

It's just a mermaid, how can he have the ability to reach the sky, probably just to scare him, if he is scared, Tang Xi is still happy.

Thinking about it like this, Zheng Zefeng adjusted his feelings, and forcibly didn't look at Tang Xi anymore.

I don't know if it's a psychological reason, as soon as he entered the imperial study, Zheng Zefeng felt that his body began to heat up. After he knelt down towards the old emperor, the crowd began to make an uproar.

Zheng Zefeng raised his head and looked around with some confusion, but saw that they were all staring at his legs. He remembered the medicine Tang Xi had fed him before, and he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.

He slowly looked down, only to realize that his legs had turned into fish tails. Zheng Zefeng was frightened by himself, he lay on the ground and screamed. How is this possible, he is obviously a human!

Although the old emperor didn't understand why Zheng Zefeng suddenly turned into a mermaid, he didn't forget that the flesh of a mermaid might make him immortal, the old emperor licked his lower lip and waved his hand to signal the guards to arrest Zheng Zefeng.

Zheng Zefeng didn't have time to resist at all, and he had already been set up. He raised his hand and pointed at Tang Xi, and before the words of "you" fell, the old emperor's laughter came. "It turns out that Zhuang Yuanlang is actually a mermaid, so is it true that the meat of the mermaid you mentioned last time can make people immortal?"

Where did Zheng Zefeng dare to admit it, "Your Majesty, the last time I said it was all nonsense from the minister, and the minister is not a mermaid at all, the minister is a human, it was Tang Xi who gave the minister an unknown drug, and the minister became like this!" ”

Tang Xi didn't shirk when he heard this, and directly stepped forward and poured out the pill in the porcelain bottle to Zheng Zefeng, "Are you talking about this medicine?" ”

Zheng Zefeng's eyes were full of surprise, "Yes, this is it!" ”

Tang Xi ignored him no longer, but turned his face to the emperor, "Back to the emperor, this medicine is a new medicine offered to you by the people's daughter." If a person takes it, it can prolong life, but if a mermaid takes it, it will show its true body. Before, the folk girl and Lord Zheng met in the Imperial Garden, and Lord Zheng accidentally took one, and it became what it is now. ”

"You're lying, it's obvious that you forced me to obey!" Zheng Zefeng's eyes widened, he didn't expect Tang Xi to be so capable.

"It's also a mistake, master, can the flesh of this mermaid really make people immortal?" The old emperor didn't have time to listen to so much nonsense, he only wanted to know one thing.

"The folk girl has never tried it, and she has never heard of it." Tang Xi lowered his eyes and offered the porcelain bottle in his hand, "This is a newly refined medicine made by the people's daughter, and the people's daughter retired first." ”

The old emperor shouldn't let Zheng Zefeng go this time, even if she said that the mermaid's meat didn't have that effect, I'm afraid the old emperor wouldn't believe it.

Zheng Zefeng also did her own evil this time, but she had to stop the news from spreading.

If everyone thinks that they can live forever by eating mermaids, I'm afraid that their mermaid race will have another storm.

The old emperor asked Zheng Zefeng to be locked in a secret room, and considering that the mermaid needed water, he also specially asked Zheng Zefeng to prepare a water tank.

Zheng Zefeng's hand was firmly locked by the iron chain, he looked at the strange emperor in front of him, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva, "Your Majesty, the minister is a human, and the minister is not a mermaid!" Tang Xi is a mermaid, really! ”

"What do you say? You say that the master next to me is a mermaid? The old emperor raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little unconvinced.

"Yes, she's really a mermaid!" Zheng Zefeng tugged on the chain hard, making a crackling sound, he suddenly remembered the medicine that Tang Xi gave to the old emperor today, "If the emperor doesn't believe it, he can let Tang Xi take a new medicine!" ”

Zheng Zefeng was carried away by fear, completely forgetting that he was originally a human being, and only after taking the medicine did he become a mermaid

And when the old emperor heard him say this, he couldn't help but think about it, Tang Xi's appearance is rare in the world, and he already had doubts in his heart. If Tang Xi was really a mermaid, wouldn't he be able to keep her in captivity here?

Zheng Zefeng looked at the old emperor's expression and knew that there was a play, so he couldn't help but continue: "Your Majesty, you let the ministers out, the ministers can help you arrest Tang Xi!" ”

The old emperor sneered, he didn't answer Zheng Zefeng's words, but asked Gonggong Li to bring a dagger. "The master said that I want to quit killing?"

Gonggong Li hurriedly bent down and said yes, didn't the emperor want to kill Zhuang Yuanlang? But if you want to kill, why did you bring it to this place?

The old emperor gestured at Zheng Zefeng with a dagger, suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly ordered Gonggong Li to pull out Zheng Zefeng's fishtail.

Zheng Zefeng was a little scared and wanted to retreat, but the range of the water tank was limited, so he could only cling to the water tank. The fishtail was dragged by Gonggong Li, and Zheng Zefeng had a bad premonition in his heart.

Sure enough, the next moment, I saw the old emperor holding a dagger and slashing at his fishtail.

Blood fell down the scales, and the water in the tank was dyed red. Zheng Zefeng's family is poor, and he used to go out to fish, so he can still endure this pain.

But what he didn't expect was that the next moment the old emperor would let the flesh of his fish tail scrape off.

Zheng Zefeng pinched the chain, and his forehead was full of cold sweat. "Your Majesty, what are you doing here?"

The old emperor put the meat in his hand into the plate in Gonggong Li's hand, picked up the white handkerchief and wiped his hands, wiped the blood stains on his hands before turning his head to look at Zheng Zefeng, "Didn't Zhuang Yuanlang ask knowingly?" ”

Zheng Zefeng's aching cheeks turned white, and the old emperor's words made him feel even colder, "Your Majesty, the minister is really not a mermaid!" ”

The old emperor looked at his fishtail and snorted coldly. "You can keep it here, and I'll come back tomorrow."

Zheng Zefeng's heart was like ashes, what did the old emperor mean by this, he would come to cut his flesh tomorrow? No, I'm afraid it's not just tomorrow. Zheng Zefeng began to regret why he mentioned the mermaid in front of the old emperor in the first place.

If he hadn't said it, the old emperor wouldn't have thought of it at all. No, no, it's all Tang Xi's fault, if she hadn't given herself that kind of medicine, how could she have become like this!

A trace of bitter hatred flashed in Zheng Zefeng's eyes, he was going to wait here, waiting for the old emperor to bring Tang Xi in!

The next day, the wind was beautiful, and Tang Xi was thinking about whether to take Ah Ming out for a walk, when there was a knock on the door. This courtyard is now only lived by her and Ah Ming, if there are palace maids and eunuchs coming, they will definitely sign up first, but this person is knocking on the door.

Tang Xi raised his eyebrows, could it be Xiao Hanbei? No, no, Xiao Hanbei didn't knock on the door like this.

She instructed Ah Ming to enter the inner room, and walked towards the door herself. The moment he opened the door, Tang Xi wanted to slap the door in the face.

"Miss Tang, it's the king." Xiao Yuqi thought that Tang Xi didn't see it clearly, so he hurriedly added.

Tang Xi thought to himself, it's because it's you, that's why I did this. "I don't know what the Lord is here? This is the emperor's alchemy powerhouse, and it is better for the prince to come less if he is fine. ”

"Miss Tang, are you worried about this king? Rest assured, no one will see this king when he comes. Xiao Yuqi pushed the door open a little and walked straight in.

When she saw the simple layout in the room, she couldn't help frowning, "Miss Tang actually lives in this kind of place on weekdays?" ”

Tang Xi secretly rolled his eyes, this Xiao Yuqi is narcissistic, right? Who's going to worry about him, it's like stealing. It's the same. "It's okay, it's okay to have a bed to sleep in."

Xiao Yuqi has always been used to pleasure, and he was very dissatisfied with Tang Xi's words, "If Miss Tang can be used by this king, this king will not treat you badly." ”

"I don't know what the eldest prince wants the people to do?" Tang Xi sat on a chair and poured himself a glass of water.

Xiao Yuqi saw Tang Xi take the initiative to ask, and his mood suddenly improved, "Miss Tang can really refine the elixir of life?" ”

"Really? What about fake? Tang Xi hooked his lips and chuckled, thinking that this great prince really couldn't help it. If the old emperor is immortal, then the throne must be without his son.

It's no wonder, but this big prince dares to come to her so rashly, is it confident?

"If it's true, it's naturally good, if it's false, I'm afraid Miss Tang's life won't be saved." Xiao Yuqi sat beside Tang Xi and said ambiguously in her ear.

Tang Xi frowned and raised his head slightly and stayed away from him, "Please also ask the eldest prince to respect himself." Whether the medicine refined by the people's daughter is true or false, the emperor can tell the difference, and the prince does not have to worry about the people's daughter. ”

"Miss Tang, is this unwilling to help this king?" Xiao Yuqi's eyes darkened, and his hand slowly groped for his waist

"The folk girl didn't say that, and asked the eldest prince to give the folk girl some time to think about it." How could Tang Xi miss Xiao Yuqi's movements, but she couldn't reveal her true strength now, so she could only endure it for a while.

Xiao Yuqi: "Then when does Miss Tang plan to reply to this king?" ”

"As long as the eldest prince goes to court on time every day, he will see the reply of the people's daughter within three days." Tang Xi put down the cup in his hand and made a send-off motion.

Xiao Yuqi was not angry, smiled meaningfully and left. He was not stupid, and naturally heard Tang Xi's subtext.

Xiao Yuqi thought she understood Tang Xi's words, but only she understood Tang Xi's true meaning. She turned Zheng Zefeng into a mermaid in front of the old emperor, and the old emperor naturally would not let go of such a good opportunity for immortality.

If the old emperor cut Zheng Zefeng's meat every day to eat, it wouldn't be long before his health would get worse and worse.

In this way, she not only punished Zheng Zefeng with the hand of the old emperor, but also let the old emperor know that eating mermaid meat could not be immortal at all. Isn't it beautiful to have the best of both worlds?

After Xiao Yuqi left, the old emperor sent someone to summon Tang Xi. Tang Xi thought that the old emperor had found out about Xiao Yuqi coming to her, but when she saw the old emperor, she realized that it was not the case at all.

Tang Xi looked at the delicacies on the table, hooked his lips and smiled, "Your Majesty, this is?" ”

"The master has been in the palace for so long, because I have been lazy, and I have never asked the master about his preferences. Today, I specially asked the imperial dining room to make a few vegetarian dishes, I don't know if it suits the taste of the masters? The old emperor raised his hand and motioned for Gonggong Li to go to the chopsticks, and he took a piece of tofu and put it in the Tangxi bowl.

Tang Xi was a little apprehensive to the tofu in the bowl, "Your Majesty, folk girls don't like to eat tofu." ”

The old emperor's face changed, and finally he pulled the corners of his mouth and laughed, "It's because I'm slacking, so let's take what you want to eat." ”

"The emperor's words are to break the life of the people's daughter, the emperor is so generous, the people's daughter is really happy for the people of the world." Tang Xi said, picked up his chopsticks and picked up a piece of green vegetables.

While munching on the greens, Tang Xi tasted the familiar taste. In this dish, there is her new medicine. Tang Xi pretended not to know, and put a few more pieces of green vegetables in his mouth.

It seems that the old emperor believed Zheng Zefeng's words and wanted to force her to show her true identity. But how could the medicine she made herself harm herself?

After Tang Xi finished eating, he didn't leave immediately, and sat down to talk to the old emperor for a while.

The old emperor had been waiting for Tang Xi to show his fishtail, but it was clear that he was disappointed. It seems that Zheng Zefeng is deceiving him! A hint of murderous intent flashed in the old emperor's eyes, but it was quickly suppressed.

Half a month passed in a flash, and soon the next auspicious day of the zodiac in the mouth of Tang Xi was reached, but it was still too long for the old emperor. After three days of taking Zheng Zefeng's meat, his body began to deteriorate, and now not only his temples were white, but he couldn't even find much black hair.

His eyes became more and more blurry, so the old emperor tortured Zheng Zefeng again. Originally, he wanted to kill Zheng Zefeng directly, but the mermaid is like this now, and he is a little reluctant.

Tang Xi still went to the alchemy room to refine the medicine at a quarter past noon, and after three o'clock in the afternoon, she already had two more round pills in her hand.

The old emperor had been waiting outside the door for a long time, and when he saw Tang Xi come out, his eyes suddenly lit up. "Master, has the medicine been refined?"

Tang Xi opened his clenched hands and handed one of the pills to Gonggong Li, "As usual, let Gonggong Li try the medicine first." ”

Although the old emperor was extremely eager, he was also afraid that he would be poisoned, so he had to wait for Gonggong Li to take it first.

Gonggong Li swallowed his saliva before swallowing the pill with water. After half a cup of tea, Gonggong Li changed from a middle-aged man to a young man, and there was no wrinkle on his face.

Although the old emperor couldn't see clearly, he immediately understood when he heard the exclamations of the people around him. He put the other pill in Tang Xi's hand into his mouth and swallowed it directly.

The old emperor also began to become younger, but not as magical as Gonggong Li, but his white hair turned into green silk. The old emperor looked at himself in the mirror, and then at Gonggong Li, and was not very satisfied, "Why is this happening?" ”

Tang Xi didn't answer and asked: "Has the emperor taken other things before?" ”

The old emperor remembered the mermaid meat he had taken, and suddenly felt a little disgusting, it was Zheng Zefeng again! "Can you make me younger again?"

Tang Xi shook his head helplessly.

Although the old emperor was angry, he also ate indiscriminately first, so there was no reason to blame Tang Xi. And after this incident, Tang Xi has become a god-like existence in the eyes of everyone.

Who doesn't want to live forever? And this medicine can only be refined by Tang Xi, so how dare anyone offend Tang Xi!

In the middle of the night, the old emperor woke up from his dream, and suddenly felt that he had forgotten something. He got up from the princess of the neighboring country, got himself dressed, and walked out.

The princess of the neighboring country only felt that something was wrong with the old emperor, but she did not dare to call the old emperor loudly, so she had to continue to lie down and sleep.

The old emperor walked all the way to the imperial study, took out a blank piece of paper and wrote a few lines, and then covered the jade seal of the country.

The next day, the old emperor announced that he would pass the throne to the third prince, Xiao Hanbei, and that Xiao Hanbei would ascend the throne in three days.

As soon as these words came out, the ministers discussed it one after another.

The old emperor got the elixir of life, but not to sit on the throne? Moreover, the third prince has always been the most hated son of the old emperor, and the old emperor should also pass on the throne to the eldest prince! Isn't it that the eldest prince did something behind his back and was discovered by the old emperor?

In short, no matter what the ministers thought, the old emperor retired from the dynasty after announcing it.

The ministers were confused, and only Xiao Hanbei understood what was going on. But he won't sue anyone about these things.

Xiao Yuqi rushed to the courtyard where Tang Xi was located, and when he saw Tang Xi swinging with Ah Ming, Xiao Yuqi was really angry, "You promised this king to help this king, why did you go back on your word!" ”

Tang Xi frowned, "When did the folk girl agree?" ”

Xiao Yuqi thought about it carefully, and then realized that he had fallen for Tang Xi. Tang Xi only said a few words ambiguously that day, I am afraid that he understood the wrong meaning.

But thinking about the situation of the old emperor just now, Xiao Yuqi felt that this had nothing to do with Tang Xi. Although the old emperor seems to be in a clear mind, I am afraid that this is not the case at all.

The old emperor regarded the throne as his lifeblood, how could he suddenly give up when he could live forever, this is not right at all! "What happened to your father?"

Tang Xi raised his eyebrows, "The emperor wants to live forever, so the people will let him live forever." ”

Xiao Yuqi: "My father has always hated Xiao Hanbei, but now he gave Xiao Hanbei what he cares about the most, do you dare to say that you are not bad behind your back?" ”

"Lord Wang, did you make a mistake? If you want to be the emperor, you should go to the emperor and say what is the use of the people's daughter? Tang Xi chuckled lightly and shrugged his shoulders a little helplessly.

"You" Xiao Yuqi took two steps forward and grabbed Tang Xi's shoulder, and was about to tie Tang Xi, but his arm was twisted by Tang Xi, making a clicking sound of breaking bones.

Where did Xiao Yuqi suffer such torture, even shouted.

"Lord Wang, the people persuade you to respect yourself, this courtyard is surrounded by the emperor's people, if you want to attack the people's daughter, you have to pick a good time." As soon as Tang Xi's words fell, two black-clothed guards flew in with light skills and tied up Xiao Yuqi.

"Master, what should I do with the great prince?"

"Send him to the emperor." Tang Xi waved his hand at the guards, and then continued to accompany Ah Ming on the swing.

Three days later, Xiao Hanbei officially ascended the throne, and the old emperor naturally became the emperor. It was at this time that the Emperor Taishang also came to his senses. The pill Tang Xi gave him earlier was not an elixir, but a puppet pill.

As for why Gonggong Li and him became younger, it was because of the deep sea pearls, but this could only keep them young for a few days. Now that the hour had passed, they seemed to be even older.

The Emperor Taishang was even more paralyzed on the bed, unable to even stand up. He raised his hand and waved it in front of him, only a faint shadow could be seen. "What's going on? Expert! What about the masters! ”

"Father, you've woken up, drink a glass of water first." Xiao Hanbei took the warm water from the eunuch's hand and handed it to the emperor.

As soon as the Emperor Taishang heard Xiao Hanbei's voice, he frowned, and he raised his hand to knock down the cup in Xiao Hanbei's hand, "Why are you, Yuqi?" ”

"Father, don't you remember? You sent the eldest brother to the northwest, and told him not to come back for the rest of his life. Xiao Hanbei took the handkerchief in the eunuch's hand, wiped his hands, and said indifferently.

Emperor Taishang: "How is this possible! Let Yuqi come and see me! You son of a bitch, get out of the way! ”

"Forget to tell my father, now that you are the emperor, today is the day I ascend the throne, I am the emperor, but my father personally passed it on to me." Xiao Hanbei didn't hate the Emperor, but he didn't have any feelings for the Emperor.

Today he found Zheng Zefeng's body in the secret room, thinking of that tragic scene, Xiao Hanbei couldn't help frowning. Fortunately, his Tang Xi can turn into a human body anytime and anywhere, and fortunately, his Tang Xi was not discovered by the Emperor Taishang.

"What do you say? I passed the throne to you? How is this possible! The Emperor Taishang didn't believe that this was his own doing, "Are you pretending to pass on the holy decree?" It must be so! ”

"Whether my father believes it or not, the matter has come to this, and my father will take care of his life here." Xiao Hanbei threw up his sleeves and left.

After returning to the imperial study, Xiao Hanbei immediately issued a holy decree.

'Whoever catches a mermaid is sentenced to death.' Anyone who trafficks in merfolk is punished by death. ’

Since then, the mermaid race and humans have once again coexisted peacefully.

However, it will be a few hundred years before the mermaid race opens up to humans again. After all, humans have hurt the mermaid race severely.

Tang Xi didn't go back to the deep sea, she asked the other mermaids to choose a mermaid queen again, and she stayed by Xiao Hanbei's side and spent the rest of the decades with Xiao Hanbei.

In fact, Xiao Hanbei doesn't want to be the emperor, but if he doesn't become the emperor, he won't be able to protect the mermaid race

This time, Xiao Hanbei only regained his memory before he died, he held Tang Xi's hand tightly, and he didn't let go of death.
