"No, old man, although I don't know what my relationship is with your benefactor, I can tell you very clearly, I really don't need this thing, I take this small piece of wood, maybe it can help your benefactor. Ai Yingyun said: "Xiang Qingxi once again rejected the old man's kindness.

Hailing leaves are indeed a good thing, but it should have no effect on him, and he already knows the root cause of the old man's illness, and he has the confidence to regulate the old man's body.

Helping the old man out of the secret room, Xiang Qingxi poured a small half cup of spiritual liquid for the old man, mixed it with the source water and fed the old man to drink, and after the old man fell asleep, Xiang Qingxi walked out of the bedroom, pulled Li Yuan aside and said softly, "Uncle, do you have any brothers and sisters?" I want to ask, if the old man is gone, who will inherit the throne?"

"Huh, I ...... What happened to my father......? He...... I won't ......" When Li Yuande heard this, his legs began to weaken, and he became a little nervous and a little incoherent.

"Uncle, you listen to me, nothing happens, on the contrary, his old man's health will get better and better, you believe me is right. Xiang Qingxi smiled and comforted.

"Really, you didn't lie to me?" Li Yuande looked at Xiang Qingxi suspiciously, but no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see that he was deceiving him, so he patted his chest, and said after a long exhale, "You scared me to death." ”

"Then can you tell me now how you inherited the throne?" Xiang Qingxi asked again.

"Oh, okay, my father has a total of five children, I am the fourth, there are three elder brothers, the eldest brother is called Li Yuanren, he is kind-hearted, he takes good care of our younger brothers and sisters, and is my father's eldest son, so he is the first heir to the throne of the Heavenly King, the second brother Li Yuanyi, is the second heir, the third brother Li Yuandao devoted himself to cultivation, and announced his withdrawal from the throne inheritance very early, so I naturally became the third in line, I also have a younger sister, who has already been married, but she also has the right to inherit. The others are some relatives, what's the matter, is there something going on in the palace?" Li Yuande heard Xiang Qingxi's words.

"I'm not sure for the time being, can you remember who entered the palace and came into contact with the Heavenly King half a year ago?" Xiang Qingxi asked again.

"Half a year ago?" Li Yuande looked up and thought for a while, "Oh, half a year ago was my father's eightieth birthday, but there were many people who came to see my father, and they didn't notice anything special happening?"

"Isn't there anything special going on?" It seems that he may have thought about it wrong in time, and Xiang Qingxi was ready to think about this problem in a different direction.

At this time, Li Yuande suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "Yes, my father only fell ill after his eighty birthday, and he never got sick before, what happened here?"

"Have you ever heard of Gu poison, or Gu worms or anything like that?"

"Gu worm?" Li Yuande shook his head, "I haven't heard of it, today is the first time, what's wrong? Xiang Gongzi, can you make it clear at one time? It's about my father, I'm really anxious." ”

"I'm not sure, so I'm not going to jump to conclusions, but I suspect that your father's illness was the result of someone poisoning him. Xiang Qingxi had no choice but to express the doubts in his heart.

"Wouldn't it? Who would poison an eighty-year-old man?" Although Li Yuande had a puzzled expression, his eyes gradually revealed a fierce light, "Dare to poison my father? No matter who it is, I will not let it go, is this bullying our Li family?"

"Uncle, don't worry, and this matter is not suitable for the time being, we can brake quietly, don't tell anyone, anyway, the old man is fine. Xiang Qingxi saw Li Yuande's expression, afraid that he would be impulsive.

"yes, I see. And ...... my father now?" asked Li Yuande.

"He's all right now, he's just asleep. You don't have to worry. Xiang Qingxi comforted.

Early the next morning, when Xiang Qingxi walked to the garden, the king of heaven was moving his body there, and he didn't look like he was in a trembling state like yesterday, and when he saw Xiang Qingxi walking out, the old man beckoned, "Xiang Gongzi, this way." "The voice is loud and does not look like an old man.

"How is your health?" Xiang Qingxi smiled and walked over to the old man and greeted.

"Yes, it feels completely good, sometimes I wonder, you said that you look exactly like my benefactor, and I still feel that you are my benefactor. The old man stopped and looked at Xiang Qingxi.

"Haha, isn't it very important? Old man, I've looked through your history before, you have always been a Ming Jun, why did you choose to retire from politics?" Xiang Qingxi said while playing Tai Chi.

"Alas, this is a long time ago, go with the trend, and our dynasties tell us that the monarchy will only make us more and more corrupt, and there is a good saying that absolute power leads to absolute corruption. The old man paused and asked, "You're right?"

Without waiting for Xiang Qingxi to answer, the old man said, "I don't want the descendants of the Li family to follow in the footsteps of the former Tang Dynasty, but the Tang Dynasty died in the Yellow Nest and the disaster began in Guilin, so even if I am the Ming Jun, it does not mean that my descendants are also, and without power, they cannot be corrupted, I think in this way, the Li family will last longer." ”

Yes, absolute power leads to absolute corruption, this sentence is not unreasonable, Xiang Qingxi looked at this heavenly king, and gradually his figure overlapped with Grandpa Liu Changlin, they are all wise old men.

After staying in the Tianwang Mansion for a few days, Xiang Qingxi resigned to the Tianwang family, although the Tianwang family was trying their best to keep it, but there was still business to take care of at home, so Xiang Qingxi still set foot on the way home.

In addition to Liu Shengnan, there was also Li Ruoyan, who was going to stay at home with his grandfather, but I don't know why, his father Li Yuande chatted with her late one night, so that she could stay with Xiang Qingxi in the future and do things according to her heart.

Therefore, she returned to Kunshi with Xiang Qingxi, accompanied by a guard from the Heavenly King's Mansion, this guard is called Zhang Yi, a master in the middle of the ground level, because her ancestors have been swearing to protect the kings of the past dynasties, and she was hereditary and loyal to hereditary waiting, and she was a disciple of the Yinwu family.

In fact, there are many such guards in the Tianwang Mansion, but the masters above the prefecture level, Xiang Qingxi, have only seen two of them these days, and Zhang Yi is one of them, saying that it is to protect Li Ruoyan, but Xiang Qingxi knows that this is to protect Xiang Qingxi in the name of protecting Li Ruoyan, maybe Li Yuande has already heard some things about the Xiang family.

There was nothing to say all the way, but on the night of returning to Kunshi, Xiang Qingxi suddenly felt a splitting headache, and there was a voice in his ears, "Worm! The sound, the pain caused by this sound, like being eaten by a needle in the brain, the pain of him restless, rolling all over the ground, using the method of internal vision can not find out what the reason is, tossing for a long time, the pain is really helpless, in fact, so much pain can not think of any way, so he dodged into the Shenzhu to find the Jade Rabbit to see what is going on, but the strange thing is that as soon as he entered the Shenzhu, this sound disappeared, and the pain disappeared, disappearing as if it had not happened.
