Chapter 199: Face
Li Heng didn't wait too long outside the hall, and after about a stick of incense, Li Guangguang walked out of it with a smile on his face.
"The emperor has promised to see me?"
"Well, I've told you a little bit about your situation, the old emperor is very interested in you, and he can't wait to meet you. ”
Li Heng smiled slightly and said, "Then let's go." ”
Everyone in Yan Lian Kingdom knew that the old emperor was old and feared that he would die soon, but he didn't care about it, and he read books every day until late at night, and after this old man who had worked hard all his life unloaded his heavy burden, he developed a strong interest in history and geography books.
Every day, in addition to reading books, I play chess, and my life is very leisurely.
All the major military affairs were handed over to a few princes, but those who were interested could see at a glance that this was just an illusion.
The big and small things of the Yan Lian Kingdom, as long as the old emperor wants to know, none of them can be hidden from him.
The open and secret battles between the princes, the ministers, and all the things that happened in Xia Luo City these days, this old man always looked at him coldly and didn't care.
The old emperor, who has experienced countless turmoil, has long lost interest in this kind of petty fight.
One of the things he wants to do most at the moment is undoubtedly ...... Establish a prince and choose a prince!
Li Guangguang led Li Heng into the Taihe Palace, turned a few corners along the way, and gradually walked to an independent courtyard, with three golden characters on the door plaque 'Yangxin Palace'.
"Huh, sure enough, there are still masters in the royal family, especially around the emperor, who is even more Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which cannot be underestimated. ”
Chapter 44: Secret Talks
Before Li Heng entered the Heart Nourishing Palace, there were several powerful masters hidden in the courtyard.
Among them, there were two cultivators who had reached the Golden Pill stage of cultivation, and there was one cultivator who was the most hidden, and he was even already cultivating in the Spirit Infant stage.
Li Guangguang smiled slightly, not afraid of being heard, and explained: "The Yan Lian Country has six major servants, and now almost all of them are in the Heart Cultivation Palace, and it is inconvenient for them to meet people, and I won't let them come out to meet you." ”
"Well, they have their duties. ”
The two walked into the Heart Cultivation Hall together, Li Heng smiled slightly at a few figures in the dark, and he strode into the house, with no nervousness in his expression.
............
Warm as spring, in the study room full of fragrant cigarettes, there is an old man wearing a bright yellow dragon robe.
The study room is not luxuriously furnished, nearly half of the place is full of all kinds of books, the old man is lying on a soft couch, and the old hand is holding a heavy book, and he is reading it with relish.
"Your Majesty, Li Heng is here. ”
Li Guangguang shouted softly, for fear of disturbing the old man.
"Uh-huh!"
The old man put down the heavy book in his hand, revealing his face.
The old emperor's face was already very old, his face was full of wrinkles, but his appearance was majestic, especially his eyes, which did not show the slightest old age, but were as bright as the stars in the summer night sky.
This old man is the current emperor of the Yan Lian Kingdom, and he can be called the battle mystery of a generation of Ming Jun!
Zhan Xuanji ascended the throne at the age of fifty and was the emperor for a hundred years, although Yan Lian Guo did not have much exhibition in his hands, but he was steadily advancing, in this hundred years, there was no rebellion among the people in Yan Lian Country, and the people were at least well fed and warmly dressed.
"Little Brother Li, sit casually, I'm old, it's inconvenient to get up, what's not thoughtful, please don't be surprised. ”
Zhan Xuanji half-lay on the soft couch and turned his body to the side, his voice gentle with a hint of majesty.
"Where does the emperor speak, a cloth cloth, how dare you bother the Son of Heaven to get up and greet him," Li Heng did not salute, he is a person in the heterogeneous world, and Zhan Xuanji is the emperor of the secular world, the two have different identities, and they can't talk about who is more noble than whom.
After speaking, he found a stool and sat down.
"Hey, his vitality has been completely cut off, and he has only survived until now by relying on Uncle Li's true yuan and his strong perseverance, once he fulfills his wish, I am afraid that he will die soon. ”
Li Heng understood in his heart that Zhan Xuanji's wish was to hand over the Yanlian Kingdom to a prince, hoping that this prince could show the country well and not lose the inheritance of his ancestors.
"Glossy, sit down too. Zhan Xuanji waved his hand at Li Guangguang, who was standing aside.
"Your Majesty, Emperor. ”
Li Guangguang smiled and sat down on a chair casually.
Zhan Xuanji slowly moved his body on the soft couch, and still stared at Li Heng with majestic eyes for a long time before he smiled and said, "I heard that the status of Little Brother Li is even higher than his?
Li Heng was slightly stunned, he didn't expect the emperor to know a lot, and then smiled again: "I am a disciple of the same sect as Uncle Li, I just rely on the prestige of my master, in fact, I am a junior of Uncle Li." ”
After a pause, he smiled again: "The emperor doesn't call me my little brother anymore, that will mess up the generations, I and Suifeng are good brothers, if the emperor doesn't think I'm high, you can call my name directly, then I still feel kind." ”
"Haha, Gao Pan? It's Gao Pan with the wind, right?"
Zhan Xuanji smiled heartily, then coughed violently twice, his whole face was suffocated red, and he dispersed in one breath, and turned white again, and said with a wry smile: "Hey, it's old, it's really old." ”
"The emperor is in his prime, how can he be old? Although there is a little problem with his body now, as long as you are willing, I can help you continue your life. ”
Li Heng's words are a bit naked, but in front of the battle mystery, there is no need to beat around the bush, the old man has long passed the age of playing conspiracy, and everything is like a mirror in his heart.
"Survival?"
Zhan Xuanji smiled and shook his head, "I've heard Luster say that my life was originally one hundred and thirty years old, and now I have lived one hundred and fifty years old, and I am already content." ”
"Hehe, there are really few people in the world who can see through life and death like the emperor. ”
"People are old, they have lived enough, what are you still tossing and turning in the world, it is better to die early and be reincarnated, and you can fight again in the next life, such an old body, I have long been enough. ”
Zhan Xuanji smiled heartily, grabbed more than a dozen pills from the side, and sighed: "Hey, if you haven't fulfilled your wish, you can't take this bullshit medicine." ”
Li Guangguang quipped: "If the emperor doesn't eat it, the minister will forcibly feed you, and at most you will be guilty of disrespect." ”
"You," Zhan Xuanji smiled and shook his head, then looked at Li Heng again, there seemed to be a trace of fierce qi in his eyes, but his tone was as flat as water, and asked lightly: "Li Heng, have you thought about what to do?" I mean, after I die, what are you going to do with this country?"
Li Heng smiled slightly and said, "The emperor's question is really sharp, if I don't answer well, won't I be able to get out of this room?"
"Haha, Luster is your subordinate, how powerful he is in my heart, he can sincerely serve you as the Lord, of course your ability is a hundred times more powerful than him, the group of soldiers outside the door can deal with ordinary people, deal with you...... I didn't count on it. ”
Zhan Xuanji laughed, not at all worried that Li Heng would suddenly kill him.
He has long been accustomed to life and death, he has been an emperor for more than a hundred years, and he has suffered hundreds of assassinations alone, so to speak, he is not afraid of anyone now, any force, even if that force can destroy the Yanlian country in an instant.
"Hehe, the kid was just joking just now, please don't mind the emperor. ”
"The old man is not so careful. ”
When Zhan Xuanji spoke, his eyes habitually narrowed, and his gaze kept wandering away from Li Heng, waiting for Li Heng's answer.
"The emperor doesn't have to worry, I and the sect behind me don't have any intentions for the Yan Refining Country, forgive the boy for being bold, just one Yan Refining Country is not enough for us to be too interested. ”
Well, the old man believed that. "Zhan Xuanji is in front of them, there is no self-proclaimed me, and there is no need for this, the title 'I' can frighten his courtiers, but it can't frighten cultivators.
"What we want, the emperor should know, right?" Li Heng's eyes flashed, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and the smile on his face was still very gentle.
"Ye Zilong's treasure, sure enough, this is really a hot thing," Zhan Xuanji didn't have the slightest surprise, his eyelids slowly drooped, "Since I knew this secret, my heart has cleared up, this is not only a blessing for the Zhan family, but a great disaster for the Yan Lian Country." ”
"You and Suifeng are really father and son, and you think exactly the same as him. ”
"Oh, what does he think too?" Zhan Xuanji's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Hehe, I just told him about this, and his thoughts are the same as yours, and they all think that the Saint Emperor Treasure is an ominous thing for the Yan Refining Kingdom. ”
Zhan Xuanji smiled with satisfaction: "If he can think like this, I am relieved." ”
