In the thirty-fourth year of Datong, in the early winter of November, this is the first snow since the beginning of winter this year, Changle Palace, several temple people in the emperor's bedroom added charcoal to the brazier, so that the whole hall was warm like spring under the brazier.

Late at night, the emperor was listening to the temple people next to him reciting the recital, the emperor has always felt dizzy for some reason in the past year, and the handwriting on the recital is not clear, even if he eats the divine pill refined by Zhang Daoling, he often feels unwell.

No way, the emperor had to let the Lang Guan around him teach the temple people to read and write, recite the chapters of various places, as long as he listened to the nod yes, the temple people will approve the Zhu pen on his behalf, so that he does have a lot less work pressure, as long as he nods yes or no, the decision is on the line, and now it can only be like this.

In recent months, the emperor has rarely gone to the court, and it is impossible for the courtiers to run errands in the inner palace, so he can only rely on these temple people in the inner palace.

After the temple people finished reciting the chapter, the emperor nodded slowly, and the temple person carefully lifted the red pen and wrote a word on the chapter.

At this moment, the emperor couldn't help but think of the former prince when he was acting as the government agent, and he was also light, but correspondingly, after the former prince held a certain decision-making power, the power of the prince's party was also sharply**, and he used a lot of means to barely suppress the prince's party.

Unexpectedly, the prince who had high hopes for him actually rebelled when he gambled his life to cultivate, although there was a reason, but in order to maintain the stability of the society, the emperor also had to endure the pain of giving the prince to death, remembering that the prince Mu Bai played under his knees when he was a child, he couldn't help but feel a cramp in his heart.

There is no way, the most ruthless emperor family, although there is a suitable heir An Guojun Gongzi Xiu, but after the Taiji Palace Rebellion, the emperor no longer dares to make a prince lightly......

After listening to the recitation of the temple people, the emperor nodded tiredly and said: "You go down, today is over, Yang Liu, serve me and rest......"

The temple people respectfully held the concerto, kowtowed and retreated, and at this time, Yang Liu, who was waiting by the emperor's side, quickly helped the emperor back to the couch and prepared to go to bed.

Yang Liu has only been able to serve in front of the palace since he climbed to the high branch of Mrs. Sun, and after he gained power, the limelight in this Jin Palace even slightly overshadowed Gonggong Lu, the head of the inner court.

Father-in-law Lu recently had a sudden illness and had to be served by Yang Liudai in front of the emperor, Yang Liu was well-behaved and sensible, and at the same time he was the person recommended by Mrs. Sun, and he won the trust of the emperor.

After Yang Liu carefully served the tired emperor and lay down, the emperor opened his eyes slightly and ordered: "Yang Liu, you take the pill, I must eat it to nourish my qi before going to bed." ”

When Yang Liu heard this, he hesitated for a while and obediently took the brocade box, although he was worried that the emperor's dragon body was sick, but he didn't dare to disobey the emperor's will.

After the emperor took out a vermilion pill and took it, he fell into a deep sleep, and after a short time there was a slight snoring sound in the imperial tent.

Yang Liuxin said, this elixir with Zhang Daoling recently is really powerful, the emperor has been sleeping badly recently, resulting in a perverse temperament, and he has to punish the palace people from time to time, which makes the people in the inner palace panic, since the emperor took this elixir, it has been much better......

After the emperor rested, Yang Liu had to go to the emperor's side and be on duty for an hour, and when the emperor was asleep, he would call other temple people to come to change shifts and serve.

An hour later, Yang Liu saw that the emperor was asleep and was fine, so he was about to turn around and leave, and after greeting the temple people who came to hand over his class, he was just about to turn around and leave.

Suddenly, a loud shout came from the emperor's tent: "Ah! Someone ...... came" and there was no sound.

Yang Liu reacted very quickly, strode to the emperor's tent, and saw that the emperor's eyes were closed, and a large amount of black blood spurted out of his mouth and nose.

Yang Liu saw that the emperor's chest seemed to rise and fall slightly, and he should still be angry, so he suddenly came to his senses, and turned around and roared at the temple people around him: "What are you still doing in a daze? Don't hurry up and ask for a national teacher. ”

The people of the temple trembled, so nervous that they couldn't even speak, so they immediately turned their heads and ran away, and heard Yang Liu's violent shout behind them: "By the way, call the people from the Tai Hospital as well......

When the temple people heard this, they hurriedly turned their heads and nodded yes, and Yang Liu threw over a shoe and shouted, "Don't go ...... yet"

The temple man had to smile wryly and turn his head and run......

In an instant, the emperor's bedroom was full of people, and the imperial doctor also stepped forward to check the emperor's condition, among which Zhang Daoling, the national teacher, was also among them, at this moment, the national teacher Zhang Daoling had no immortal appearance in the past, he frowned, a sad face, I don't know if he was worried about the emperor's body, or worried about his future and fate, he knew very well in his heart that once the emperor had a good deal, as the emperor's favorite, his good days would come to an end.

At this moment, sitting next to the emperor was the imperial physician Ling Taiyi Li, and Yang Liu, who was waiting in front of the emperor, was also staring at the emperor in the imperial tent with a blank face.

With Yang Liu's ability to observe words and emotions for many years, seeing that Imperial Physician Li frowned, he knew that something was wrong, and he had already secretly informed Mrs. Sun, and he didn't know when Mrs. Sun would be able to come here.

At this time, the emperor's favorite concubine, Mrs. Sun's face was frosty, and she walked quickly to the emperor's imperial tent.

But when Mrs. Sun saw the black blood on the emperor's imperial tent, even if it was the color of the city, she couldn't help but be frightened by the situation in front of her, she stepped forward and asked in a trembling voice to Imperial Physician Li: "Imperial Physician Li, what's wrong with Your Majesty?" ”

When Imperial Physician Li saw Mrs. Sun coming, he knew that she was now the nominal speaker of the harem, so he respectfully bowed and whispered, "Noble Sun, please take a step to speak." ”

Mrs. Sun understood herself, and followed Imperial Physician Li behind everyone, Imperial Physician Li sighed and said: "Back to the nobles, Your Majesty's pulse is disordered, and it is already a sign that the oil has run out. ”

When Mrs. Sun heard this, she was stunned on the spot like five thunderbolts, she had no master for a while, and she didn't know what to do, thinking that the emperor had died, and she had no heirs, and she had to accompany the emperor to the funeral, she couldn't help but be heartbroken......

At this time, the head of the inner court, Gonggong Lu, and the patriarch Ahelami also rushed to hear the news, and Lu Liang looked at the emperor in front of him, his face was also pale with surprise, and he turned his head to look at Ahelami.

I saw that after the patriarch stepped forward to investigate, he shook his head slightly at Gonggong Lu, and then stood aside silently, Lu Liang instantly understood what was going on, the emperor had reached the last moment.

Lu Liang stepped forward and lay on the emperor and cried: "Your Majesty, your old man opens his eyes and looks at the old slave, the old slave is late......"

At this time, Ahelami stepped forward and poured a spiritual power into the emperor's body, and the emperor woke up slightly, he opened his eyes and looked at the group of people around him, wanting to open his mouth to speak, but he couldn't say a word.

The emperor reluctantly raised his hand, pointed to a gorgeous gold box next to the imperial couch, and closed his mouth one by one and let out a sound! Yes! Strange sounds.

Lu Liang comprehended and took the box and asked, "Is Your Majesty this box?" ”

The emperor nodded slightly, and in the cries of everyone around him, the emperor also knew that he might not be able to survive anymore, the unprecedented emptiness in his body made it all his strength to raise his arm.

Finally, after about half a pillar of incense, the emperor seemed to have a reddish color on his face, and there was some meaning of returning to the light, the emperor gasped like a bellows, and after a while, he slowly beckoned to Lu Liang, and everyone understood that this was to explain the future.

As a close friend of the emperor's side, Lu Liang naturally stepped forward to listen carefully to the emperor's last words.

The emperor shouted in a hoarse voice and intermittently commanded, "Lu ...... I...... Just go...... Xuan left and right two phases... Zhao Shu, Yang Lin came... Come and see me... Hurry up ......"

Lu Liang's voice choked and said, "The old slave obeys the order." ”

Lu Liang immediately turned around and left, announcing that the four auxiliary ministers entered the palace to discuss state affairs.

At this moment, Huo Zheng was still holding a bamboo slip and reading the documents with a lamp, and suddenly the house slave came to report, someone from the palace came, Huo Zheng was puzzled when he heard this, at this time, the palace had already closed all four doors, and outsiders were absolutely not allowed to enter, what could it be called late at night?

Huo Zheng had a vague sense of foreboding in his heart, and immediately summoned someone to come, only to see that this person was dressed as a temple person, and he didn't say a word, but just handed Huo Zheng a gold medal for entering the palace.

When Huo Zheng saw this gold medal, his face changed greatly, this is a token that will only be issued when a major military event occurs, with this token, he can ignore the rules of the palace prohibition and enter the palace immediately.

Huo Zheng immediately got up and changed his clothes, got into the carriage and went to Qingyang Palace, fortunately, in order to facilitate the emperor to summon him at any time, the Prime Minister's Mansion was not far from the palace......

When the left prime minister Huo Zheng rushed to the palace, it happened that the right prime minister Wang Yi also rushed to the gate of the palace all the way.

The two of them were in a hurry, so they could take care of each other's greetings on the way, Wang Yi stepped forward and saluted: "Huo Xiangguo!" ”

Huo Zheng heard the words and saluted: "Wang Xiangguo! ”

Wang Yi frowned tightly and asked, "Huo Xiang knows that His Majesty suddenly summoned his ministers late at night, what happened?" ”

Huo Zheng shook his head and said, "The true appearance is not clear, we can only know when we see Your Majesty......"

At this time, in front of the emperor's imperial tent, only the left prime minister Huo Zheng and the right prime minister Wang Yi rushed to the front of the palace first.

At this moment, the emperor's energy to return to the light was about to be exhausted, and Huo Zheng, the left prime minister, saw that the emperor's face was pale, and black blood continued to ooze from the corners of his mouth, and he was shocked, he knew that something was going to be wrong, Lu Liang signaled to the people in the palace to avoid, and motioned to the left and right prime ministers to step forward and listen to the order.

The emperor trembled and pointed to the gold box, but only made a muffled voice: "Ann... Ann ......"

Huo Zheng took the golden box, he understood, guessed with his ass, and knew that this must be the edict of An Guojun's son, and the government and the opposition basically knew who the internal candidate was.

Huo Zheng held the emperor's hand, choked up and bowed slightly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the minister will immediately go out of the palace to read the edict of succession......"

Wang Yi also wept bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers and others know, and the ministers and Huo Xiangguo will definitely help the new monarch to inherit the throne smoothly." ”

When the emperor heard this, he glanced at the prime minister left and right with relief, his mouth was closed but he couldn't say a word, and after a while, the emperor's eyes glanced at the people around him, with a strong attachment to this world, he closed his eyes and was silent......

Seeing this, Imperial Physician Li stepped forward to check the emperor's pulse, his face changed slightly, and he shook his head at everyone, indicating that the emperor had returned to heaven......

At this moment, the people around the emperor howled and cried.

At this moment, a lot of black blood gushed out from the seven orifices of the emperor's corpse, and when the great patriarch saw this, his face changed slightly, and he shouted, "Everyone retreat." ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and when they saw the emperor like this, they reflexively hurriedly retreated, only to see the emperor's corpse on the imperial couch bleeding, and many red strange insects came out of the mouth, ears, and nose, and crawled around, but after crawling for a while, the red strange insects curled up together and died.

When a few tenacious red monsters saw the people around them, they tried to bounce up and attack everyone, and when everyone saw this, they screamed in fright and dodged in all directions......

At this moment, the face of the great patriarch Ahlami changed slightly, and with a flick of his seal, three fire spirits flew out, turning into flame birds and burning the red monster insect that was not dead.

Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Huo Zheng naturally knew the inside story, and it should be the sequelae of the emperor's previous use of the Pantheon Pill.

Huo Zheng stepped forward to thank the great patriarch for his timely move, and Ahe Lami nodded slightly.

Huo Zheng's face was serious and he instructed Yang Liu next to him: "Father-in-law Yang, you immediately go to order the guards of the inner palace, from now on, the six palaces will be banned, and no one in the inner palace shall leave the palace for any reason or reason, violators, beheaded!" ”

A cut word exit, Zuo Prime Minister Huo Zheng shocked everyone present, everyone understood that now that the emperor has returned to heaven, the government is already the final say of these important ministers of the court, Yang Liu peeked at his father-in-law Lu Liang, Lu Liang nodded slightly, Yang Liu was ordered to run to pass the order in small steps.
