As night fell, the gate to Miyagi slowly closed, and a curfew was imposed in the inner city of the sacred capital.

In the center of the majestic complex sits a heavy and solemn hall, and the gloomy shadow of the hall brings a strong sense of oppression.

There was silence in the empty imperial study, and Emperor Wu Yi sat behind the golden case, watching the music on the table.

"Your Majesty, it's late at night, it's time to rest."

The chief eunuch approached with tea in both hands and called softly.

In the quiet of the night, the call of the chief eunuch brought Wu Yi back to his senses, he pinched his eyebrows, and asked in a deep voice, "What time is it?" ”

The chief eunuch came to Wu Yi's side, carefully placed the tea bowl on the table, and replied softly, "It's already the end of the day." ”

Wu Yi picked up the tea bowl, took a small sip, looked at the night outside the temple gate, and sighed: "Unconsciously, it's already the time of Yin." ”

The chief eunuch has served the emperor for many years and is a minister trusted by Wu Yi. He looked at Wu Yi's haggard expression, and said quietly: "Since the return of Tian Hunting, the emperor has been restless all day, but you have to take care of the dragon's body......"

Wu Yi slowly exhaled a breath, shook his head and said, "The eldest princess's condition has not improved, and I really can't rest assured. ”

The chief eunuch naturally knew that the eldest princess was seriously ill, and when he heard the emperor's words, he hesitated for a moment, and subconsciously opened his mouth to say something, but immediately closed his mouth.

Although he has won the trust of the emperor, this is the emperor's family matter, and it is still inconvenient for outsiders to participate.

Wu Yi glanced at him, and his brows furrowed even deeper: "I want to say something, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

After getting the emperor's permission, the chief eunuch nodded before he spoke: "The servant is foolish, since the emperor is convinced of the alchemy of the Daomen Danding faction, why don't you invite the Daomen to heal the eldest princess?" ”

……

The next day, after the end of the court, the head of the Qingling Dao held the dust in his hand, carried the sword on his shoulder, and walked into the palace of the eldest princess under the guidance of the palace maid.

"Your Majesty."

Seeing the emperor's witch ceremony, Qingling Dao chief bowed down and was about to kneel, when he was interrupted by the anxious witch ceremony.

"Qingling Dao Elder is exempt from courtesy, and inviting Dao Elder to come today is really a matter for the eldest princess."

"The matter of the eldest princess, Poor Dao already knows. Qingling Dao Chief bowed slightly, and his voice was very calm, which made people feel very relieved to listen to.

Wu Yi nodded and sighed, "Then ask the Qingling Dao Elder to check the pulse of the eldest princess." ”

The eldest princess was lying on the bed, and her condition had deteriorated compared to the previous days. For several days, there was no water.

Outside the layers of gauze curtains, the head of Qingling Dao sat on a chair and checked the pulse of the eldest princess.

After a moment, the expression of the Qingling Daoist became extremely solemn.

I am not afraid of the sad face of Western medicine, but I am afraid that the smile of Chinese medicine will gradually converge.

Seeing that the Qingling Dao Leader had not spoken, Wu Yi felt a little nervous, and asked softly, "What disease does the eldest princess suffers from?" ”

Qingling Dao Leader pondered for a moment, then got up and asked, "I wonder when the eldest princess started to get sick?" ”

"The day of the field hunt." Wu Yi replied immediately.

"Oh." Qingling Dao Chang stroked his white beard and didn't say anything more.

The eldest princess is Wu Yi's favorite sister and is his heart. At this time, Wu Yi was no longer the king of a country, but the elder brother of a younger sister.

"Does the Taoist have a cure?" Wu Yi was very anxious and asked.

As for the eldest princess's illness, the Qingling Daoist has a complete understanding. But what puzzled him was why the eldest princess was sick. That day of hunting, what happened again.

It's just that as a courtier, in the face of the king of a country, there are some things that can be said and some things that cannot be said.

"Your Majesty, this is not the place to speak." Qingling Dao is a long and secluded road.

The door to the imperial study opened again, and Wu Yi stepped in, sitting behind the golden case.

Qingling Dao Chang followed into the imperial study and stood under the golden steps.

After retreating left and right, only Wu Yi and Qingling Dao Chang were left in the imperial study.

"Qingling Dao Chief, what disease does the eldest princess have? Let's be honest. Wu Yi couldn't wait to ask.

The Qingling Dao Master did not answer this question, but asked rhetorically: "Your Majesty does you know the demon clan?" ”

"Demon Clan?" Wu Yi was stunned.

The demon clan, although Wu Yi has not seen it with his own eyes, but the Dao Demon War five hundred years ago is known to the world.

To this day, the only contact between Wu Yi and the demon clan is the murder of the demon clan of the Purple Cloud Sword Sect. At that time, Wu Yi was furious and angrily reprimanded Song Zheng.

Wu Yi's eyes flickered, and he asked, "What does the Taoist mean, the eldest princess's illness is related to the demon clan?" ”

Qingling Dao Chief nodded, and truthfully reported the eldest princess's illness to Wu Yi: "The eldest princess was invaded by the demon wind, her heart and veins were blocked, and her blood veins were blocked, and her veins were cut off. ”

Now, whether Wu Yi is a demon wind or not, or whether he is a dead pulse or not, he only wants an affirmative answer now: "Can the Pure Spirit Dao Master have a cure?" ”

"Daomen takes demon subjugation as its own responsibility, and has its own healing method. It's just that the eldest princess was invaded by the demon wind, which is very weird. The Qingling Dao Elder first gave Wu Yi a reassuring pill, and then slowly expressed his worries.

With the Qingling Daoist's affirmative reply, Wu Yi's hanging heart was half relieved, and he also had the heart to think about other things.

"Could it be the day of the field hunt?" Wu Yi thought for a while, and his eyes instantly darkened a little.

"It is no accident that the eldest princess was invaded by the demon wind. Five hundred years have passed, and the demon clan has the ability to leave the land of nothingness, and the eldest princess was invaded by the demon wind at this time, and I am afraid that there is another hidden story behind the matter. After Qingling Dao Chang finished speaking, he quietly glanced at Wu Yi's expression, testing his inner thoughts.

The matter of the demon clan can be seen through the incident of the Purple Cloud Sword Sect that day. Not to mention that the demon clan poses a danger to Yangning Kingdom, just because the demon clan hurt the eldest princess Xin Yao, it is something that Wu Yi absolutely cannot tolerate.

But he didn't want to promise Daomen anything at such a time, and he didn't want Daomen to do anything. For 500 years, the attitude of the Taoist sect not to ask about the affairs of the world has made the imperial power lose patience.

To this day, the reason why Daomen is trusted by the imperial power is only because Wu Yi believes in the alchemy method of the Danding faction.

"I have already ordered the Nine Star Division to thoroughly investigate the affairs of the demon clan." Wu Yi replied lightly.

"The affairs of the demon clan cannot be regarded as a common thing, let alone analyzed by common sense, although the Nine Star Division has the privilege of imperial power and the right to investigate crimes, but I am afraid that there is no purpose to deal with the demon clan." Qingling Dao Chang said quietly, it seems that he has a good plan to deal with the demon clan.

"Oh?" Wu Yi let out a puzzled voice and asked, "What is the method of the Qingling Daoist?" ”

Seeing that Wu Yi finally relented, the Qingling Dao Leader also said the lines that had been prepared at this moment: "Your Majesty, if you have the courage to recommend a person, this person will be able to find out about the affairs of the demon clan." ”

"Who does the Taoist recommend?" Wu Yi asked.

"Ye Feng."

"Ye Feng?!" Wu Yi's eyebrows were raised fiercely, and he asked loudly: "The person the Daoist said, but the son of Ye Chen, Marquis of Pingxi, Ye Feng?" ”

Qingling Dao Chief nodded his hand and replied calmly: "It's this person." ”

Seeing the serious appearance of the Qingling Daoist, Wu Yi suddenly laughed a few times.

In the next second, the laughter in the imperial study stopped abruptly, Wu Yi squinted his eyes, and sneered: "Pingxi Hou secretly hides Lingyuan, which means rebellion, I should have punished his three clans to set an example." If it weren't for the civil and military intercession of the Manchu Dynasty and the investigation of the Nine Star Division, how could he have survived to this day? ”

Qingling Dao Master stood at the foot of the golden staircase, did not speak, just listened silently.

"The Manchu Dynasty knows that Ye Feng is a stupid waste who is addicted to wine. The Taoist chief recommended Ye Feng, which was quite inappropriate. Wu Yi smiled.

After listening to all the words of Wu Yi, the Qingling Dao Master opened his mouth and explained: "Ye Feng and the Fu Sect of my Dao Sect have a long relationship, and when Zheng Yi Chang saw that this person was quite talented in the Dao Sect, he accepted him as a disciple of the Fu Sect. The Fu Zheng faction is a full-time demon subduer, and the poor road is so brave to recommend it. ”

"Oh? Ye Feng is now a disciple of the Fu Sect? Wu Yi squinted and asked.

"Exactly." Qingling Dao Leader replied.

"So, Ye Feng will subdue the demon now?" Wu Yi smiled coldly, very unconvinced.

"Exactly." The Qingling Dao Master still replied.

Looking at Qingling Dao's confident expression, Wu Yi no longer pursued it.

For him, as long as the eldest princess's illness can be cured, it doesn't matter who that person is, whether it is right or wrong, good or evil.

This is exactly what the way of the emperor is.

Sure enough, after Wu Yi weighed it for a short time, he decided not to pursue Ye Feng's matter anymore, and said: "Since the Dao Chief trusts Ye Feng so much, then Ye Feng will handle this matter, and the related matters will be handled by the Dao Chief." ”

At this moment, the Qingling Dao Elder spoke again: "Ye Feng is now imprisoned in the dungeon of the Nine Star Division, and he will be executed by Che Crack in the near future. ”
