Chapter 178: The Dark Tide is surging
Li Longji put his hands behind his back, he looked at the fragrance of the court, and said with a long sigh: "Lux, I am already old, and I can't wait too long for this Zen matter!" ”
"Your Majesty is in the prime of life, why do you say that you are old? If Your Majesty can't believe Cui Lian, the old slave is willing to share your Majesty's worries and solve problems. Colliers said as he knelt on the ground.
"Cui Lian is outspoken and dares to admonish, and I am very comforted, but his ability lies in governing the country, and I am afraid that he will not be able to do enough to investigate the case." Li Longji stroked his beard and said.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, if there is an old slave in one day, you will definitely protect Your Majesty's safety. The old slave ordered someone to go to Luoyang and completely solve all the hidden dangers! A flash of murderous intent flashed in Gao Lishi's eyes, and he said in a deep voice.
Li Longji pressed his hands on the railing, and the fragrance of the court swayed down, and he suddenly coughed.
Gao Lishi hurriedly stood up, walked behind Li Longji and patted him lightly on the back.
"Lux ...... Am I really old? After coughing violently for a while, Li Longji suddenly spit out a mouthful of bloody phlegm and asked calmly.
Gao Lishi smiled and said: "Your Majesty is in the prime of life, how can he be old?" Didn't the Imperial Doctor say that you are overworked? ”
Li Longji waved his hand and said, "I know my body better than anyone else. I have been sitting on this throne for decades, and if the Tang Dynasty can have a prosperous era today, I can be regarded as worthy of my ancestors and ancestors. Lux, do you know what I am most concerned about now? ”
Although Gao Lishi knew this, he still made a contemplative expression: "Your Majesty is worried about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? ”
"Heng'er has your ministers to serve, and I am not worried. I am most concerned about my concubine, I am old and weak, if I die, what should I do? Li Longji seemed to have a stunning figure in his eyes, with endless sadness and reluctance on his face.
"Your Majesty, you are blessed with all your blessings, how can you say this easily!" Gao Lishi burst into tears, he knelt on the ground, and kept kowtowing: "Your Majesty, the old slave will definitely search all over the world, and he will also find the elixir of immortality for His Majesty!" ”
"Immorality? Those are just legends, Lux, and you know what you mean. What I can do now is to spend more time with my concubine in my lifetime. Li Longji sighed.
At this time, a palace maid walked over from the corridor in front of her with her head bowed, and when she saw Li Longji, the palace maid hurriedly knelt down, bowed her head and said, "Your Majesty, Niangniang is holding a banquet in the pear orchard and waiting for Your Majesty to come." ”
Li Longji nodded, and then ordered the palace maid to lead the way and walked all the way to the pear orchard.
Gao Lishi looked at Li Longji's back and secretly swore: "Your Majesty, whether you believe it or not, the old slave will find the elixir of life for you." ”
After Gao Lishi left, he followed a little eunuch behind him and quietly walked to a side hall.
In the side hall, Yang Guozhong walked out from behind the curtain, and the little eunuch saw this and hurriedly knelt down and saluted.
Yang Guozhong waved his hand, and he got up to reply.
The little eunuch glanced around, then leaned over to Yang Guozhong's side and muttered.
After listening, Yang Guozhong frowned and said, "Can you hear clearly, what Your Majesty and Gao Lishi said is related to 'Reverse Scale Xuanwu'?" ”
The little eunuch nodded heavily.
Yang Guozhong took out a bag of money and stuffed it into the little eunuch's hand, and after sending it away, the whole person fell into deep thought.
After returning to Yang's mansion, Yang Guozhong paced back and forth, and it took a long time before he made a decision.
"Wei and Mei, you two send this letter to Luoyang quickly, and it's best to borrow their hands to get rid of Cui Lian!" Yang Guozhong summoned two cronies, handed over the handwritten letter to the two, and said in a low voice.
Two figures dressed in black, wearing black robes, only revealing a pair of eyes, and without any popularity on their bodies, suddenly appeared beside Yang Guozhong, and after receiving the letter, they disappeared silently.
"Cui Lian, Cui Lian, you have repeatedly opposed me, if you don't leave Chang'an, I can't help you, since you took the initiative to leave Chang'an, then it's no wonder that I am, hum." Yang Guozhong squinted his eyes and laughed.
But he said that Li Canghai woke up from a coma, and he was stunned to find that he was lying on a soft couch.
The slightest movement touched the wound on his left chest, and he trembled with pain.
He struggled to sit up, and at a glance he saw Di Qing lying on his stomach at the round table, supporting his head with his hands, and dozing off constantly.
Li Canghai was stunned, he had a terrible headache, his mind seemed to be a piece of paste, and he couldn't think of anything.
"Ahh Are you awake? Di Qing heard the movement and suddenly came to her senses, she walked quickly to the bed, hugged him and sobbed.
"Canghai, I thought you would never wake up again, woo woo ......." Di Qing hugged him tightly, as if she was afraid that if she let go again, she would not see him.
Li Canghai's heart warmed, he stroked Di Qing's hair, and said softly: "Haven't I come back to life?" By the way, what kind of place is this? ”
Di Qing wiped her tears and said, "This is Zhengyang County Ya, Canghai, what happened, how could you be injured like this?" If this dagger is a few inches higher, it will stab you in the heart, who is the hand? ”
Li Canghai's mind was blank, and after a while, he recalled that he seemed to be blocking the Yellow River at that time, but he didn't expect Wang Buquan's housekeeper to assassinate him, and then he made a dangerous move, with the idea of dying together, jumped into the flood, and then he began to scuttle the boat .......
"Qing'er, how is the situation of the Yellow River breaching?" Thinking of what happened, Li Canghai asked nervously.
"The Yellow River has burst and stopped, all that remains is to strengthen the dikes and divert the floodwater. The Ministry of Industry has already sent water officials, so you don't have to worry about that. Di Qing looked at the wound on his left chest, and said with a slightly cold face: "Your three-legged cat's kung fu, don't fight with others, if it weren't for Chang Feng mobilizing the people to look around, you would have been drowned!" ”
Di Qing's tone was cold, but what was revealed between her words was concern, her apricot eyes were slightly red, and the tears she had just wiped away almost fell again.
Li Canghai scratched his head, he grinned and said, "Qing'er, you don't know, the situation was urgent at that time, and I could only fight to the death." Otherwise, if the flood breaks through the embankment, the entire Zhengyang City will become a Zeguo. ”
"Have you ever thought about me? What will I do if you die? Di Qing's eyes were red, and her pink lips were clenched.
Li Canghai stroked her hair and said seriously: "Qing'er, born in the world, there is something not to do, and something must be done." That's my responsibility. I can save the lives of the people in the city, even if it is death, I am worth it. After a pause, he suddenly kissed Di Qing on the forehead, and said in a deep voice: "What's more, you are still in the city, I want to save the lives of the people, and even more so your lives." ”
Di Qing was already tear-stained, she looked at Li Canghai and sobbed: "Canghai, do you remember what I said in the Hades Palace? You die, I die. You live, I live. In this life and this life, no matter where you go, I will be with you. ”
