The Forbidden City, the Palace of Nourishing the Heart.

At this moment, Jiajing was sitting cross-legged on the futon, absorbing the aura around him.

Since he successfully broke through the middle stage of Qi training, his perception of the aura around him has risen to a new level, and even the speed of absorbing aura is much faster than before.

After the aura escaping from the air was absorbed into Jiajing's body, it was guided by Jiajing through the limbs and hundreds of remains, and finally gathered into the cyclone in the dantian.

Every time he completes the Zhou Tian cycle, the mana in Jiajing's body will increase to varying degrees, and his whole person's temperament is also quietly changing.

After a long time, after Jiajing had absorbed the last few wisps of aura, he slowly opened his eyes, and after roughly sensing the situation in his body, he shook his head and said to himself silently.

"It seems that these auras right now are just a drop in the bucket for my current cultivation!"

At this moment, Lu Fang's voice came from outside the hall: "Your Majesty, the slave has something important to report!" ”

When Jiajing heard this, he immediately sat down on the dragon chair and commanded, "Well, come in!" ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw Lu Fang's hurried steps and entered the Heart Cultivation Palace.

As soon as he entered it, he saw Lu Fang kneeling on the ground, and said in a trembling voice.

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, not long ago, the slave maid got the news that Xu Jie had already taken a sedan chair and rushed to Yan's mansion. ”

Jiajing took in the expression on Lu Fang's face and comforted him.

"Lu Fang, you can rest assured, Xu Jie knows very well what he is doing."

"Your Majesty, what do you mean ......"

After listening to Jiajing's words, Lu Fang also had some understanding, and even if he came to stand beside Jiajing as usual, he didn't say anything anymore.

……

"Elder Xu Ge, dare to ask you what is the matter with your coming this time?"

In the waiting room of the Yan Mansion, Yan Shifan turned his gaze to Xu Jie, who was on the side, and asked.

Xu Jie sensed the vigilance contained in Yan Shifan's words, chuckled, and immediately explained.

"That's right, because Yan Ge Lao has been unwell recently, he can't handle affairs for the time being."

"Therefore, Your Majesty, let me temporarily take charge of the affairs left by Yan Ge Lao, and I came to visit this time, one is to learn the specific truth from Yan Ge Lao!"

Xu Jie deliberately paused for a moment when he said this before continuing.

"The second is to come to visit Yan Ge Lao, after all, he has been an official in the same dynasty for so many years......"

When Xu Jie said this, his face was sincere, and that expression seemed to say that he and Yan Song were friends who had been friends for many years and were inseparable in life and death.

Seeing this, Yan Shifan's expression on his face remained unchanged, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and said to himself silently.

"I'm bah, Xu Jie, you shameless villain, you obviously came to see my Yan family's jokes!"

"Also, you've come up with this reason, can I still refuse you?"

Then, after Yan Shifan organized the language in his mind, he said slowly.

"Thank you Xu Ge for your concern, my father's current physical condition is not very good, I hope you will pay attention to the time later, don't delay your father's rest!"

Seeing this, Xu Jie nodded and said in a deep voice.

"Xiao Ge don't worry, I, Xu, am not the kind of person who doesn't know how to measure!"

Seeing this, Yan Shifan had no choice but to get up from his seat and speak to Xu Jie.

"Elder Xu Ge, please come with me!"

Seeing this, Xu Jie immediately kept up with Yan Shifan's pace and marched towards Yan Song's room.

After coming out of the living room and passing through a long corridor, under the leadership of Yan Shifan, Xu Jie came to the vicinity of Yan Song's room.

Before he entered the door, Xu Jie smelled a strong smell of herbs, which was so strong that he couldn't help frowning.

"Elder Xu Ge, please wait a while, I'll go and report to my father."

"Please."

After Yan Shifan finished speaking, he entered Yan Song's room, while Xu Jie's face was as usual, waiting in place.

In the room, Yan Song was holding a book in his hand, looking at it with relish, and when he saw Yan Shifan coming in, he couldn't help frowning, and immediately asked.

"What, what's wrong?"

"Father, that Xu Jie's personal visit is waiting outside!"

Seeing this, Yan Shifan didn't dare to hide it in the slightest, and immediately told Yan Song the ins and outs of the matter.

After Yan Song understood the ins and outs of the matter, he also frowned, and commanded in a deep voice.

"You don't care about this matter, let him in!"

Hearing this, Yan Shifan's expression turned grim and he responded.

"Yes, father, the child will go."

After Yan Shifan finished speaking, he left Yan Song's room without looking back, and Yan Song looked at Yan Shifan's departing back, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Elder Xu Ge, it's been a long time, you can go in now!"

After Yan Shifan came out of Yan Song's room, he arched his hand to Xu Jie and said respectfully.

"Hmm."

Xu Jie nodded, pushed open the door, and entered Yan Song's room.

"Old Xu Ge is here, sit!"

At this moment, Yan Song was lying on the bed, and when he saw Xu Jie coming in, the whole person seemed quite excited, and pointed to the seat next to him, so he said.

Xu Jie sat down in his seat, and then withdrew his gaze from Yan Song's body and spoke.

"This time, Xu took the liberty to come to visit, and I hope that Elder Yan Ge will not blame him!"

"Whereever, it is enough for you to come and visit me and talk to me, a bad old man."

Yan Song glanced at Xu Jie beside him, and said slowly, with a depressed look that could not be concealed in his tone.

And this couldn't help but give Xu Jie a hint of illusion, that is: "Yan Song is really old, he can't support it anymore!" ”

Yan Song didn't care about Xu Jie, but said to himself.

"My old bones won't last long!"

"After I leave, the position of the head of the cabinet will be yours sooner or later."

Hearing this, Xu Jie's pupils suddenly contracted, forcibly suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his heart, and said in a deep voice.

"Where, where, Yan Ge, your body is still very strong!"

"In my opinion, you'll have to be in office for another decade or two."

When Yan Song heard this, he didn't have much emotional fluctuations, but shook his head, and his tone was full of loneliness.

"I know my physical condition, and now, I even have to let someone do it for me."

As the person who knows Yan Song best in the world, Xu Jie naturally knows that Yan Song has the habit of drying books, and he has always done it himself, never letting people do it for him.

"This Yan Song, what kind of tricks are he playing with me, can it be said that Yan Song admits defeat?"

Coldly, such an idea suddenly appeared in Xu Jie's mind.

However, this idea was soon rejected by Xu Jie himself.

"No, it's impossible, with my understanding of Yan Song, it's absolutely impossible for him to admit defeat so easily!"

"What is this Yan Song thinking?"

Xu Jie's eyes narrowed slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

At this moment, I saw Yan Song chuckle lightly and bring the topic back on track.

"Those words just now should be regarded as the broken thoughts of an old man like me!"

"Elder Xu Ge, why are you here this time?"

"Elder Xu Ge? Xu Ge Lao? ”

Yan Song saw that Xu Jie was still stunned, and couldn't help but remind.

Seeing this, Xu Jie suddenly came back to his senses and responded.

"Oh, here's the thing, because you are not feeling well, Your Majesty has temporarily entrusted the affairs you are responsible for to me to handle, so ......"

Before Xu Jie's words were finished, he was interrupted by Yan Song's words.

"Since it was ordered by His Majesty, then Xu Ge Lao, you can just do it, you don't need to ask my opinion!"

Yan Song took in the stunned look on Xu Jie's face, paused for a moment, and then continued.

"Those unfinished files are all in my study, you can ask Yan Shifan to accompany you later, take them all away, I am so happy."

"In addition, many matters related to the transformation of the treasure ship are also in it."

Yan Song said as he spoke, and then added such a sentence, and the meaning of the words was self-evident.

"Hmm."

Xu Jie was silent for a long time, and answered in a deep voice.
