In the face of Zeng Yi's ridicule, the old eunuch smiled and said: "Yes, it is because of this that we strongly invite Sun Daochang, as long as the saint can live for a few more years, the world can be peaceful and the people can be healthy." Zeng Yi had nothing to say about this, he had to admire the old guy, who deserved to be a figure who had been in the palace for decades.

The three of them didn't encounter any twists and turns in the capital, and no one even checked it, so they let Zeng Yi drive the carriage directly into the capital, without thinking about it, they knew that this must have been settled by the old eunuch in advance, after all, the emperors of all dynasties refining the elixir would cause a lot of criticism, and the emperor Lao'er didn't want more people to know that he was looking for someone who was refining the elixir.

Entering the capital, the old eunuch took Zeng Yi and Sun Laodao to a house not far from the palace, the area of the house is not small, compared to Zeng Yi in the wonderful blacksmith shop, it is much larger, of course, it is definitely not as good as the courtyard of the bloody guard, the house looks very simple from the outside, and it is also very inconspicuous, and there is not even a plaque on the gate.

The carriage stopped in front of the door, and the old eunuch said to Sun Laodao and Zeng Yi with a smile: "Sun Daochang, this is the residence given to you by the emperor. You can't be too loud about the longevity of the saint, for fear of being known by hostile forces, so you will attack our dynasty, so the house is not big, and you still hope that Sun Dao Chang Haihan! ”

Sun Laodao also smiled: "Good people are polite, monks, just have a place to rest, there is no need to be extravagant and wasteful!" ”

Looking at the smiles of the two of them, Zeng Yi couldn't help it, he was careful all the way, and after acting all the way, Zeng Yi was really tired: "Master, it's hard to travel, let's go to rest and rest first, and take the opportunity to let this adult introduce you to the house, after all, you have to live here for a while!" ”

"Yes, yes, Sun Daochang, please come in."

The three of them walked into the courtyard, there were already many people in the courtyard, in addition to some ordinary servants, Zeng Yi also found a lot of very good servants, these people must be sent by the old eunuch to protect Sun Laodao, or it can be said that they were sent to monitor Sun Laodao.

"The front yard is where some people live, you and Ling Gao's room is in the backyard, except for the first time, a lot of medicinal materials have been prepared for you in a few rooms in the backyard, you can start here at any time." While walking, he introduced Sun Laodao, and when he walked into the backyard, the old eunuch clapped his hands: "Come here, meet your master, from today on, these two are the masters here, the two adults are noble, you have to serve well, there must be no mistakes!" ”

More than a dozen subordinates, all gathered over, looked at Zeng Yi and Sun Laodao, and immediately saluted: "Slave, villain, see master, young master!" ”

"Good man, there's no need for this, I'm used to it by myself, and I don't need someone to serve me!"

"Hey, how can this be done, you can always come to the capital from thousands of miles away, we naturally want to provide a comfortable environment!"

Lao Dao still wants to say something, this is not something that was thought out in advance, the main thing is that Lao Dao is really used to his own life, even if he is in the pro-army Governor's Mansion, no one takes care of him, he takes care of himself, he is really not used to being served. But Zeng Yike is different, someone is serving, he will not give up this opportunity, if all these people are withdrawn, then he will not be able to do anything in the future, and if he doesn't want these people, can people rest assured?

So Zeng Yi hurriedly said: "Master, this is a good intention of a good man, you just listen to a good man, besides, this time I came to the capital, there is something important, and you can't always be disturbed by trivial things in life, right?" Hearing Zeng Yi say this, Lao Dao didn't say anything.

After a general introduction, the old eunuch said: "The journey is far away, the boat and car are tiring, the two of you can rest first, I won't bother!" Then the old eunuch departed.

After leaving, Zeng Yi and Sun Laodao walked into a room, looked around, and made sure that no one was eavesdropping, Zeng Yi whispered: "Those people in the house, many of them are martial arts, it is certain that they are from Dongchang, you should always pay attention in the future, don't expose them in front of those people!" ”

Lao Dao frowned: "Do they still not believe me?" ”

Zeng Yi shook his head: "It's not that I don't believe it, this is also to protect you, after all, you don't have martial arts, and the surveillance is just in case!" ”

"Well, I'll take notice. We have arrived in the capital, when do you say the second emperor will see us? ”

Zeng Yi thought for a moment and said: "You must not be able to summon us during the day, there are many people during the day, and if there is a little movement in the palace, everyone outside will know about it, and I estimate that we should be seen at night." ”

......

Sure enough, the old eunuch came to the house again in the evening, thinking that he was going to take the two to the palace, but he didn't expect that the second emperor would arrive in person. At that time, Zeng Yi was startled when he saw the emperor Lao'er, who was dressed in civilian clothes and disguised as an ordinary person, beside the old eunuch.

"This is the Holy One today! The emperor is Sun Daochang and his senior disciples! ”

As soon as Sun Laodao heard that the old man was the emperor, he immediately got up and saluted: "Old Dao see the emperor!" ”

"Daochang Sun, hurry up and excuse me!" Saying that, the emperor Lao'er hurriedly stepped forward to support Sun Laodao.

When the emperor came, he naturally had to sit on the throne, Sun Laodao sat under him, and Zeng Yi and the old eunuch stood behind the two of them. Emperor Lao'er looked at Sun Laodao and said, "Sun Daochang can come, I am overjoyed!" ”

"The emperor praised it falsely, and the old way deserves this!"

After saying a few words, the emperor Lao'er opened his mouth and said: "Daochang Sun, you also know that I invited you to come, what is the so-called matter, I wonder if Daochang Sun can solve my doubts?" ”

Lao Dao stroked his beard, "Your Majesty, it's too early to say anything, let Poor Dao see your physical condition first!" ”

"Okay, Daoist Sun, please come!"

Checking the emperor's body, Sun Laodao was not fooled, he really worked hard, and checked the emperor Lao'er, after the inspection, the emperor Lao'er looked at Sun Laodao, who was a little hesitant, and said, "I don't know what the situation is?" Although Sun Daochang told me that he knew my body. ”

Then the grass people made it clear. Your Majesty was injured when he was young, and now he is working day and night, which has caused his body to be in deficit now, and coupled with several violent mood swings, your body is already worse day by day, and if it continues like this, it will not take three years......"

Sun Laodao didn't finish speaking, but the meaning was already very clear, and what Sun Laodao said was all true, with the current physical condition of Emperor Lao'er, it was indeed possible to last for three years.

"Three years, hehe, I thought it would be good to be able to pass this year, but I didn't expect my body to be able to withstand three years." Obviously, the emperor Lao'er really understands his body.
