There are seven layers of seven pagodas, although it is not a pagoda, but it takes the meaning of "seven-level floating slaughter", it is a pentagonal brick and stone tower, there is an underground palace, each layer is dedicated to the Buddha shrine, lighting the ever-bright lamp, and also regularly worships. Emperor Wei hurriedly stepped into the Qibao Tower without stopping, and climbed five floors in one breath without getting tired. But most of the people who accompanied him couldn't keep up, and the steps were so wide, it really couldn't accommodate many people to flock up, and gradually only Taiyi Ling and Zhang Changyan followed Emperor Wei left and right, and the three of them walked for a while, and finally reached the seventh floor at the top of the tower.

"I haven't been here in a long time. Emperor Wei put one hand on the fence, looked around, pointed to the distance and said, "Is that the long bell tower of the Evergreen Palace?"

Zhang Changyan squinted and nodded: "The emperor's good eyesight is the long bell tower." ”

"Hehe, you guys, you will only follow me. Emperor Wei rarely showed a relaxed smile, "So far away, where can you tell clearly?" Evergreen Palace, Long Bell Tower...... In my heart, I don't care if I can see or can't see it. ”

There was no word for a while, only one or two sounds came from afar, like the sound of the wind whimpering, like a bird chirping, Zhang Changyan followed a forest within the sight of Emperor Wei, and wanted to speak several times, but he never dared to speak. Finally, the Imperial Physician Ling lowered his head and stepped forward: "Your Majesty, move to the hall, you have walked so far, it's time to rest." ”

"Yes, it's time to rest, I've walked for too long, straight and winding, and I don't know where I've gone. Emperor Wei took a deep look at him, and then walked into the only hall in this tower, at this time, Pang Xue commanded the palace people to clean up and just stop working, and when he saw the emperor coming in, he hurriedly knelt down: "Long live the emperor!"

The Imperial Physician Ling took a step forward and said, "Put it all aside, the emperor is going to rest, you all retreat." ”

"Yes, the minions are waiting outside, and if the emperor has any orders, call the minions. ”

"No, all of you go out, and none of you stay in this Seven Treasure Pagoda. Emperor Wei spoke suddenly, but Zhang Changyan, who was beside him, was taken aback, and he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the Hot Spring Palace is not as good as the palace after all, and the Qibao Building is remote, if you send all the palace people out——"

"It's not just them, you, go out too. Emperor Wei glanced at Zhang Changyan, and waved his hand without waiting for him to speak again: "You know my temper, don't make me unhappy." ”

Zhang Changyan naturally knew Emperor Wei's style, although he had 10,000 question marks in his heart, he had to retire with Pang Xue. But in a moment, there were only Emperor Wei and the Imperial Physician Ling left in the original room, there were fewer people, and the room was much empty, the Imperial Physician Ling shrunk his neck, looked at the door, and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want the ministers to step down?"

"What kind of retreat, who will pass on the edict for me when you retreat?" Emperor Wei rolled his eyes and sat down. And the imperial physician Ling was stunned for a moment, and he didn't come back to his senses after half a pillar of incense, until Emperor Wei drank three cups of tea in a row, and he stepped forward with a solemn face: "The emperor has decided?"

"Hmm. ”

"Right here in the Hot Spring Palace, right in this Seven Treasure Pagoda?"

"Hmm. ”

"The prince—"

"Wen Ziwu's life is as bad as his mother's, and he is unlucky. His mother married me, there was Zhen Ji before and then there was Yang, and he didn't have a good life, and he endured and endured to death in the end, he became my son, and he was the prince for so many years—the right should be owed by me to her mother, let him go freely. Emperor Wei turned the wrench in his hand, "This country is handed over to that person, although it may not be the best choice, but it is expected that he will ...... After all, how could a person who could be ruthless to his own father not be willing to sit on this cold throne. ”

The Imperial Physician Ling was silent, and after a while, he suddenly said, "What if, that person doesn't come?"

"He won't. Since I came here, my will has long been told to the harem, just to let him know - such a great opportunity, to take revenge on the enemy, how could he let it go?"

"He is the emperor's own blood, knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, if you say he will come, he will definitely come. But time waits for no one, Your Majesty, you can wait for his hour, it's really running out. ”

Emperor Wei looked at the pale sky outside the window, his throat moved slightly but he didn't make a sound. There are deep wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and some old age spots are gradually emerging, it seems that he has never cared about health for so many years, which directly leads to the fact that he is of a similar age, but he is much older than Li Rui, the emperor of the Li Dynasty, who is well versed in maintenance; For the first time, Emperor Wei felt that it was so beautiful to be quiet at this moment, without those courtiers with evil intentions, without the mountains of twists and turns, such silence could allow him to quietly recall the past, those things he thought he disdained or that he thought he had forgotten were the most precious things.

The sun was sinking from the sky, and the sunset was dusk, and the yellow fireballs collided with the gray-white of the skyline, dissolving and repelling each other, and then falling and depositing together. However, in the eyes of Emperor Wei, this not dazzling sunset was like a burning heart, and the past flashed in front of his eyes very clearly, and those details that should have been forgotten for a long time were as if they had just happened yesterday, which made him a little scared.

"I remember that time, I threatened you with the lives of your whole family to act for me, and although you obeyed, you always scolded me for not dying well. Later, when she came back from the Snow Clan, Zhen Ji lost her body fragrance after eating your poison, so she scolded me and you day and night, and refused to show the imperial doctor when her voice was dumb. I went to see her secretly in the middle of the night, only to find that you were also sneaking around to check her pulse while she was asleep, but I only looked at her for a while and she woke up and beat both you and me out. ”

The imperial doctor raised the corners of his mouth shallowly, and also said: "Yes, it's really embarrassing to beat the minister, I have never been treated like a patient like this in my life, and I didn't even have time to close the medicine box, I was smashed by her and stumbled out." ”

"Later, you still got angry with me, saying that if I didn't go, Zhen Ji probably wouldn't wake up suddenly, and you were also beaten. Emperor Wei's eyes seemed to have a bit of tenderness like water, and he muttered recalled: "Later, the Yang family entered the palace, and pestered me to ask the highest-grade imperial doctor of the Tai Hospital to regulate her body, although you were not very willing to go out at that time, but I wanted to see what kind of virtue you saw Yang, so I ordered you to come over, and when you looked up and saw Yang's appearance, you were so frightened that you fell down! Haha, you looked really funny at that time." ”
