Chapter 111: Time is running out

Near the capital of the Ming Dynasty, there was a strange scene, and the pedestrians on the side of the road ran around as if they had seen a ghost. After a while, thousands of cavalry appeared behind, and they passed in an instant. If you look closely, they don't have horses under their crotches, but ferocious wolves. It's no wonder that the people in the neighborhood scattered like ghosts, what if the wolf went crazy and ate people uncontrollably.

It was Liu Yu and his party who passed by, riding the wind wolf, and the group rushed frantically, and arrived at the foot of the capital in less than three days. Perhaps it is far from knowing from his memory that he has not seen it with his own eyes, Liu Yu looked at the magnificent building in front of him, and always felt that it was more magnificent than he remembered. The tall city gates and deep city walls will definitely kill the major cities I have seen in my previous life.

"What people, stop! This is the capital of Daming, who is your Excellency, please report to the door! The captain didn't dare to shout to stop them from entering the city, let alone show too much. It is indescribable to be able to afford such a mount, whether it is rich or expensive, how can there be such a cavalry in a kingdom like the Ming Kingdom. Even among dynasties, such cavalry was rare.

"Oh! Isn't this Captain Zhao, what's the matter, don't you know each other? Liu Yu, who looked at the city wall from behind, saw that his house was stopped at the city gate, and immediately walked forward.

"Third Highness, you are Third Highness!" Seeing the young man sitting on a purple-haired lion, he was clearly the third prince like that, but that look was not at all comparable to the submissive appearance of the year. For a moment, Han Ying didn't dare to admit it.

Looking at Han Ying, an acquaintance, Liu Yu came to the spirit, "Captain Han, for so long, you haven't been promoted, and the person surnamed Wu hasn't let you go!" ”

Han Ying was a little lonely, and said helplessly, "The Wu family is a Ming family, even if Young Master Wu wants to let me go, but he didn't speak, and no one dares to befriend me." Now I, Han Ying, have no way out, so I can only guard the city gate. ”

Han Ying has some talent, but because she inadvertently offended the people of the Wu family, she was assigned here. was originally appreciated by his boss in the forbidden army, how high-spirited he was. However, the Wu family relegated him to the city gate with a word.

"Okay, Captain Han, I still have something to do, so I won't bother you, if you need help, you can go directly to the prince's mansion." At the gate of the city, but after a while, Liu Yu didn't want to continue talking nonsense, there were still many things to do inside.

"Oh" Xingfeng also reacted immediately, waved his hand to signal his subordinates to let him go, and said, "Okay, the third prince walks slowly!" ”

After entering the city gate, Shen Conglin, who was not lightly tossed, asked, "Your Highness, are we going to the Prince's Mansion?" ”

"No, let's go directly to the palace" led people in the direction of the palace, Liu Yu said slowly, "My father is a little sick, I'll go see if it's really sick." Otherwise, when Zhao Guiren reacts, even if we are strong and not afraid of her, it is inevitable that there will be some moths. ”

The palace guards are not like the city gates, the guards are the Praetorian Guards, known as the elite of the Ming elite. When he came to the foot of the palace, Liu Yu was stopped again, but Zhou An on the side muttered to himself, "The Praetorian Guards are nothing more than that!" ”

As the emperor's pro-army, the Praetorian Guard naturally has someone who recognizes Liu Yu, and the three princes of the Ming Dynasty want to see the emperor, who dares to stop him. Liu Yu entered the palace without any obstacles, and his subordinates were not very easy to handle. Most of the people were left outside, Liu Yu could only bring a few people in, and even the weapons were confiscated.

Of course, as the most elite branch of the Ming Dynasty, Zhao Guiren naturally also worked hard in the Praetorian Guard, and there were many people in the Praetorian Guard. As soon as Liu Yu entered here, someone sneaked away to report the news.

When they arrived near the Heart Cultivation Hall in the inner courtyard of the palace, Liu Yu and his party were repeatedly checked. This place is guarded by the masters of Ouchi and the Praetorian Guard, and the personal old eunuch even carefully checks all the food that is sent, even the things that the emperor may touch, for fear that there will be a little mistake, and the most important thing is to prevent the poisonous woman.

When the old eunuch heard that Liu Yu was coming, he threw down the matter at hand and ran out in a hurry. Seeing Liu Yu, who was stopped by the Ouchi guards and the Praetorian Guards, he immediately said excitedly, "Third Highness, you are finally here, the old slave see the Third Highness!" ”

Seeing the person coming, Liu Yu showed a slight smile, "Father-in-law Xiao, I haven't seen you for a long time, these words are okay!" ”

"Thank you for your concern, the old slave is all right, but Your Majesty, Your Highness should hurry up and follow me" This old eunuch is obviously not familiar with Liu Yu. After seeing Liu Yu, he directly took his hand and walked inside.

With the guidance of the old eunuch, Liu Yu and his party moved forward without hindrance. Along the way, Liu Yu asked the old eunuch, "Gonggong Xiao, why are the guards here so strict, it wasn't like this before~!" ”

The old eunuch sighed, and said with some reluctance, "This is also a last resort, Your Majesty suddenly fell, and His Royal Highness is not in the capital." The old slave did this just in case. ”

"Just in case?" Needless to say, Liu Yu also knew who he was guarding against, and then asked a little nervously, "How is the situation of my father?" ”

"Your Majesty's condition is not optimistic, and the imperial doctor diagnosed that it was a recurrence of the old disease. Can be the experience of the old slave, His Majesty is obviously poisoned. Therefore, the old slave suspected that the imperial doctor had been bought. But the old slave is just a eunuch, and even if he has suspicions, he has no right to track them down. Only the vigilance can be strengthened to protect the safety of His Majesty! ”

Everyone knows who is behind the scenes. Liu Yu sighed slightly. "Father-in-law Xiao, it's really hard for you."

"It's not hard, it's the duty of the old slave." The old eunuch didn't care much about Liu Yu's words, but complimented, "On the contrary, the old slave heard that His Royal Highness was in love, and he was so powerful, let's Yan Guo's little cubs hug their heads and run away."

"This Gonggong Xiao, not long ago, His Royal Highness had led a large army to exterminate the Yan army and take back Tianbi Pass. Even the Qingfeng Pass of Yan Country was grabbed together! ”

"Ahh Your Highness, is this true? Looking at Liu Yu in surprise, the old eunuch was trembling and really didn't know what to say. Staying in the deep palace, the old eunuch's information is not too smooth. Not to mention the eunuch himself, even Zhao Guiren has just received a secret report from his subordinates, and now he is hiding in the palace and is furious.

"Hmm" nodded slightly, and Liu Yu introduced to the old eunuch again, "This is Li Xuan, the congenital Great Perfection, the leader of my Jinyi Guard!" ”

"Innate Great Perfection?" The surprise brought by Liu Yu today was enough for the old eunuch to digest for a while. Although the old eunuch reacted, "Your Highness, what kind of position is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, why hasn't the old slave heard of this official position." ”

"This is an official position that I created myself, and it's normal for Gonggong Xiao not to know!"

"How can this be done, Your Highness, Commander Li has profound skills, he should be treated as a national soldier, how can he be given a position at will." Such a master, resting in the kingdom, is an existence like Optimus Jade Pillar, even in a weaker dynasty, it is a high-standard treatment. The national teacher of the Ming Kingdom is only the peak of the innate eightfold, how can the three princes be perfunctory to a position.

Li Xuan grinned slightly, and then said respectfully, "It is the honor of subordinates to do things for His Highness."

Li Xuan's words made the old eunuch even more frightened, a congenital high-level master, that didn't his eyes rise to the top of his head. Looking at his attitude towards the three princes, it is how respectful and respectful he is, not like pretending. At this moment, the old eunuch no longer dared to look at the prince with his previous gaze, and even his actions became much more respectful.

As they spoke, several people had already arrived at their destination. Pushing open the door of the palace, I saw a middle-aged man lying on the bed with a black face who was Liu Yu's current victory, Emperor Liu Wei of the Ming Dynasty.

As soon as he entered, the old eunuch knelt down beside the bed and muttered in a low voice, "Your Majesty, open your eyes and see, the third prince is back, back!" ”

Liu Yu didn't pounce all at once, crying and making trouble to stage a big drama of father-son love, but calmly said to Li Xuan, "Go and see, how is it!" ”

After hearing this, Li Xuan immediately stepped forward to diagnose carefully. With this Li Xuan's inspection, his brows became more and more furrowed. Then Li Xuan stood up and said with some concern, "Your Highness, according to the observation of your subordinates, Your Majesty should have been hit by the "Heart Eater", I'm afraid it won't last a few days!" ”

After Liu Wei became critically ill, he was firmly guarded by the old eunuch, and even Zhao Guiren didn't know what the situation was. As for the unlucky imperial doctor who saw the doctor, he was already beaten to death by the old eunuch. But the key old eunuch doesn't know medical skills, and Liu Wei has been just unconscious, so it's okay. The old eunuch just sent someone to search for a famous doctor to heal, but he didn't expect the situation to be so critical. All of a sudden, the old eunuch was a little sluggish, and he didn't know what to do.

Li Xuan's words couldn't help but make Liu Yu frown, and then took out the little detoxification pill left and asked, "Yellow-level detoxification pill, how about you take a look!" ”

"This Heart-devouring powder is also a yellow-level poison, Your Majesty has been poisoned for a long time, and the toxin has penetrated deep into the heart and bone marrow. His Highness's Detoxification Pill can only suppress the toxin, but it can't be clear. ”

Afterwards, Li Xuan swallowed his saliva and looked at Liu Yu with some caution, "Your Highness, even if you take the Detoxification Pill, Your Majesty won't be able to last for a month!" ”
