In a manor thirty miles outside Guangling City, the capital of Wu State, an old man with a white beard woke up from his bed sweating profusely. He looked around with some horror, making sure that he was not in the mansion outside Shouchun City, and this breath was relieved. At that moment, he took the silk handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat on his face, and said to himself in the bronze mirror beside him: "From now on, there will be only you......" This old man turned out to be Mr. Ming Jue, who had just been burned to ashes by Wu Mian with fire control techniques......

Half an hour later, Mr. Ming Jue appeared in the palace of King Wu in Guangling City. At this time, in addition to Liu Bi, the king of Wu, there were several monk-like people sitting around.

Mr. Ming Du told His Royal Highness King Wu who was sitting on the throne what had happened, but he only hid the part of how he was burned to death by fire and how he came back to life. only said how he and Yinniang went to Huainan Kingdom to hunt down Yan Zheng, and how did they get to the mansion outside Shouchun City and saw the legendary elixir of immortality baked. Because he has a different talent, he escaped by luck. But Yin Niang is afraid that there will be less luck......

Liu Bi, the king of Wu, had just passed his sixtieth birthday at this time, and he was still feeling with the princess last night that he was already half a person who had entered the ground. Today, I heard the rumors about the elixir of life, and after suppressing the excitement in my heart at the moment, I said quietly: "Mr. Mingju, the elixir of immortality, the first emperor of the previous dynasty did not get it in his life. suddenly appeared in the world, is it Liu Xi's child's trickery? Besides, how can the gentleman conclude that what he sees is the elixir of immortality? ”

"Your Highness, the minister has concluded that there are two reasons why the elixir of immortality is in the world." After Mr. Ming Jue respectfully saluted Liu Bi, the king of Wu, he continued: "The pursuit of Yan Zheng by the minister and Yinniang this time was not arranged in advance, and no matter how powerful the king of Huainan is, he cannot predict the prophet. Second, there are ancestors in the courtiers who are fortunate to have seen the elixir of immortality pills baked, which is the same as the scene seen by the ministers. Among them, the fairy spirit and the peerless fragrance like a fairyland cannot be expressed in words, and if it is not immersive, no words in the world can express it. ”

After hearing this, King Wu took a deep breath. Then he turned to the warlocks sitting beside him and said, "Do the gentlemen also think that what Mr. Ming Jue saw is the elixir of immortality?" ”

"Your Majesty, according to what Mr. Ming Decision has seen. The two people who live in the Dan room are not trivial, if the minister is not mistaken. That old one should be the famous man of the Fang Shi family, and this person has been in seclusion for more than a hundred years. Although the door wall of the Fang Shi has long been removed, in terms of its magic, as far as his subordinates know, there are only four or five people who will not return to the left and right. ”

The person who spoke was a man in his prime, although he was located next to Liu Bi, the king of Wu, and was stuck with an ancient sword in his back. It turned out to be the enemy who went undercover in the Huainan Country Recruitment Hall more than a year ago. After seeing King Wu's gaze shift to himself, Qiu Li got up and bowed to Liu Bi for a while, and then continued: "Regarding that young person, it is even more incredible. Do you still remember the big case of King Rui's rebellion almost two years ago? That time also implicated the old Huainan King Liu Chang. That incident was inseparable from Wu Mian, and the ministers had teachers and friends who experienced that great change. According to what he said, if it weren't for Wu Mian, it might be Liu An, the king of Rui, who was sitting in the imperial court at this time, ruling the world......"

Speaking of this, Qiu Li breathed a sigh of relief, and after a pause, he continued: "When the minister was in the Huainan Zhaoxian Pavilion, he heard about Wu Mian's details. I heard that he was the younger brother of the first generous master Yan Aihou, and there were rumors that the generous master Xu Fu had already obtained the elixir of immortality. If Wu Mian is also a famous scholar, then it is not unusual for him to be able to refine the elixir of immortality. ”

After saying these few words, I didn't know that it was Liu Bi, the king of Wu, and even the Fang Shi who was sitting around showed a strange expression on his face. However, he did not give any advice on how to obtain this elixir of immortality for His Royal Highness King Wu. After several monks glanced at each other, Mr. Mingju said to King Wu again: "The minister has a plan, if His Highness thinks it is feasible, he can help His Highness live forever and govern the Han family for thousands ......of years."

Liu Bi, the king of Wu, said this, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't care about the identity of the princes and kings on his side. He stood up and said to Mr. Mingdu, "Sir, please speak, if you are lucky enough to get the elixir of immortality." The lonely king wishes to live forever and immortalize with all the people here......"

A month later, the second wave of imperial envoys arrived in Shouchun, the capital of Huainan Kingdom. It's not the same as before. This time, the envoys did not persuade the king of Huainan and the king of Wu, Liu Bi, and other kings of the Seven Kingdoms to draw a clear line, but when Emperor Zijing heard from somewhere today that the disciples of the Huainan palace had refined the elixir of immortality. At that moment, he issued a holy decree to ask Liu Xi, the king of Huainan, to bring the elixir of immortality to Beijing to offer medicine. If the king of Huainan dares to take the elixir of immortality for private purposes, he will take away the throne and take back the feudal country. At that time, Emperor Jing transferred one-third of the army stationed in the Seven Kingdoms, and Chen soldiers were on the border of Huainan, as long as Liu Xi did not bring medicine into Beijing, the army would be killed in this Huainan country.

What everyone else didn't expect was that after Xiao Liu Xi received the holy decree, he immediately prepared for two days without saying a word, and on the third day, he set off towards the capital with 200 chariots and horses. After leaving the border of Huainan, General Weiwei, who was stationed here with a large army, personally led people to greet Liu Xi, the king of Huainan. Later, Wei Wei broadcast 3,000 men and horses to escort the king of Huainan into Beijing, and he himself returned to the Seven Kingdoms of Ma with a large army to garrison.

Although the generals of the 3,000 people were respectful to Xiao Liu, the king of Huainan, everyone knew that they were here to spy on the king of Huainan. After all, there is the king of Huainan, according to the Han rites, unless in wartime or special purposes, the daily journey of the princes and kings cannot exceed thirty miles. And Emperor Jing didn't dare to make too much noise to attract the attention of other princes and kings. At present, this journey has been more than half a month, and the journey is not yet halfway.

On this day, the king of Huainan drove to the border of Changsha. Liu Fa, the king of Changsha, was the son of Emperor Jing, and he was the same generation as Liu Xi, but his grade was more than ten years older than Liu Xi. Originally, according to the courtesy of the princes and kings at that time, Liu Fa, the king of Changsha, should have taken his Xiangguo to the border to greet him. However, when the king of Huainan crossed the border, only one Changsha Taishou accompanied him here with more than a dozen officials.

Xiao Liu Xi can bend and stretch, and there is no displeased expression on his face. On the contrary, after entering the border of the king of Changsha, he abandoned his royal car, changed to a soft sedan car, took the Taishou who greeted him into the sedan chair, and surrendered his identity to talk with this Taishou.

It wasn't until I arrived in front of the capital of Changsha that I saw the Prime Minister of Changsha with several civil and military officials here to greet him. That's it, I haven't seen the figure of Liu Fa, the king of Changsha.

Sun Gong, the prime minister of the king of Changsha, is not in a big grade, and he is the childhood playmate of Liu Fa, the king of Changsha. Just sealed the Marquis of Zhiyang, it was the time when the spring breeze was proud. After seeing the king of Huainan get off the soft sedan chair, the Marquis of Zhiyang only made a half-salute to Liu Xi, the king of Huainan. Then he yawned and said: "Your Majesty is rude, last night for the King of Changsha to review the various places and folds all night, in front of His Royal Highness the King of Huainan, please don't blame." ”

When Changsun Gong spoke, he showed an impatient look on his face, and his tone was extremely perfunctory. was extremely rude in front of King Huainan, and at that moment, the generals who came with King Huainan all showed displeasure. I don't know if it's them, even the generals who guarded the king's 3,000 people sank their faces. He was a military attache of the imperial court, and he was not subject to the restraint of the princes and kings, let alone the face of a small vassal state.

However, Xiao Liu Xi, the king of Huainan, still did not change his face, and after returning the salute for a half, he said to Zhiyang Hou with a smile: "Lord Xiangguo is serious, and it is also the abruptness of this king." I wonder how my Changsha brother is now? This king wants to visit the palace, this shouldn't be a difficult thing, right? ”

Unexpectedly, Changsun Gong frowned, and glanced at Xiao Liu Xi with some disgust. Then he reluctantly said: "Our Royal Highness the King of Changsha is having a banquet, and His Royal Highness the King of Huainan is asking to see him at this time, I'm afraid it is not very convenient......"

"Shut up! When have you ever heard of a prince king asking to see another prince? ”
