Chapter 237 - A Royal Crisis
After several days of running, a group of eight people finally arrived at the Heavenly Emperor City, which is extremely vast, surrounded by the Yellow River of Nine Dragons, Qionglou and Yuyu are all over the place, and the air of the imperial dragon covers the sky, which looks like a thriving picture. However, after Bai Yang's observation of the Phoenix Pupil Technique, he found that the inside of the Imperial Dragon's Qi was full of black qi, which was obviously corrupted and polluted.
Han Lingmo noticed Bai Yang's strange appearance and understood what he had seen, and said solemnly: "Brother Bai Yang, you must have discovered that although the imperial dragon qi in the Heavenly Emperor City is still strong on the surface, it has been corrupted from the inside out. This is caused by internal and external troubles, and even the Imperial City is not united and is in a precarious situation!"
Bai Yang asked curiously: "Sister Lingmo, since the national crisis is at hand, the monarchs and ministers should work together to tide over the difficulties, why are they not united now?
Han Lingmo shook his head and said in an orderly and serious manner: "Brother Baiyang, things are not as simple as you imagined, if the monarch and the ministers can easily work together, why can't the country tide over the difficulties?
"Now, except for me and some loyal ministers who swore to protect my father to the death, the rest of the people are forming gangs, forming factions for personal gain, and are divided into three factions. One is a conservative faction headed by the eldest imperial brother, that is, the crown prince, the other is a radical faction led by the second imperial brother, and a powerful faction led by the sixth imperial brother!"
"The three factions fought with each other, in order to compete for the throne, my father and the emperor were sick, if it wasn't for the help of Doctor Fu to recuperate, so that his illness was better, otherwise once he was gone, they would definitely raise troops to rebel and fight for power. To be honest, I don't know what to do now, how to keep the foundation of the Korean Dynasty?"
Speaking of this, Han Lingmo immediately became sad, she had already advised her imperial brothers many times not to fight for power and profit, and to put the country first, but they didn't listen, and secretly didn't know how many people they colluded with, and even had an affair with demons and monsters, if this continues, sooner or later, the Han Dynasty will decline and perish because of them.
Seeing Han Lingmo like this, Bai Yang couldn't help but be silent for a moment, and then comforted him carefully: "Sister Lingmo, presumably you, as the youngest daughter of your father, swore to defend the imperial power to the death, and took on too much pressure. Although I don't understand the internal struggle of your dynasty, as long as I can help, I will do my best!"
"Really?" Han Lingmo wiped away the tears that were about to gush out of the corners of her beautiful eyes, no matter how strong she was, she was still a girl after all, and her heart was still very weak and she needed someone to rely on.
Bai Yang nodded and said, "Well, really, Sister Lingmo, since I promised to help you, I won't regret it." Since your royal brothers are so fond of fighting for power and profit, when I meet them, I have to teach them a good lesson, educate them as grandsons, and breathe a sigh of relief for you, so that you should feel better!"
Han Lingmo immediately burst into tears and smiled: "Brother Baiyang, you are really poor-mouthed, if you beat them, you can dispel their thoughts, I have done it a long time ago, but unfortunately I still can't convince them from beginning to end." But thank you for your kindness, it's no problem to crush them with your strength, but you can't beat them to death!"
Bai Yang heard Han Lingmo's words, which clearly wanted him to educate her royal brothers for her, and immediately laughed and said: "Since Sister Lingmo has said so, I will definitely not live up to your expectations, after I educate them well, let them all listen to you, whoever dares to object, I will beat him to cry and call his mother!"
Hearing that Bai Yang wanted to use violence to solve the problem, and the more he talked about it, the more outrageous it became, Han Lingmo finally couldn't stand it anymore, and persuaded him: "Okay, brother Bai Yang, let's talk about it when we get to the palace, when the time comes, don't behave too arrogantly and beat people everywhere, then no one will really dare to support us!"
Bai Yang chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Sister Lingmo, I will know how to stop in moderation, but I will teach some people who have eyes and don't know Taishan." Since we're almost arriving at the palace, let's hurry down!"
At this time, the Imperial Dragon Ship had entered the bustling Heavenly Emperor City, flew above the golden palace, came to a square and finally landed down, and a group of eight people walked out of it. Soon a number of guards arrived, and one of the middle-aged guard leaders with a face full of vicissitudes was overjoyed and said, "Seventh Princess, you are finally back!"
Han Lingmo nodded and responded: "Well, Commander Cao, I am fortunate that you have been defending the palace these days, by the way, how was my father's condition during the time I left?"
Commander Cao sighed and said, "Seventh Princess, I have to tell you bad news, since you left, the emperor's condition has become more and more serious, and even Doctor Fu is helpless!"
Han Lingmo was immediately shocked, and shouted urgently: "How can this be? When I first left, my father was clearly in a better condition, why did he become terminally ill after a while? No, I have to go and see him!"
So Han Lingmo hurriedly went straight to the emperor's bedroom, and after the other seven people looked at each other, they immediately understood that she was eager to save her father, so they followed closely. It wasn't long before they came there, and found a middle-aged man with a thin and old complexion lying on a sickbed, not lightly ill, but the majesty in his eyes had not faded.
This middle-aged man is obviously Han Mingcheng, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and Han Lingmo's biological father. She hurriedly stepped forward to say goodbye, crying: "Father, the son is back, how can you be so sick? What happened during the time I was away?"
Han Mingcheng coughed incessantly, and said in a trembling voice: "Xiao Mo, you are finally back, it must be very hard to run around." I'm sorry, my father can't solve the internal and external troubles of the Korean Dynasty, but instead wants one of your daughters to work hard and look for people with lofty ideals everywhere, I don't know what you will gain?"
Han Lingmo responded with mixed joy and sorrow: "Don't worry, Father, I have invited the five true disciples of the Yin Yang Sect, and they have followed their sons to solve many rampant demons and monsters, and even the grassland barbarians who invaded the border have been repulsed, and they should not invade again for a while!"
Han Mingcheng was overjoyed and said: "Okay, well, Xiao Mo is worthy of being my good daughter, and she can actually do this, so that our Korean Dynasty still has hope of surviving and rejuvenating." It's a pity that your brothers don't fight for power, and instead try to save the royal family, they fight for power and profit all day long, and if I die, won't they have to make even more trouble?
Speaking of this, Han Mingcheng was a little angry, and at this moment, he coughed even more violently, and couldn't help but spit out a good pool of blood, which turned out to be black. Han Lingmo immediately panicked, so anxious that tears fell straight down, and shouted and ordered the guards next to him: "Hurry up and call Doctor Fu over, my father's illness has attacked!"
The guards responded and left in a hurry, and after a while, an old imperial doctor with a fairy wind and bones rushed over, checked Han Mingcheng's condition, and immediately changed his face and said: "It's not good, the emperor has fallen into the demon because his heart disease is too serious, Seventh Princess, you can withdraw for the time being, and let the old man treat him well!"
Han Lingmo understood, and was about to beckon the other seven people to go out with her, Bai Yang frowned tightly, and suddenly stepped forward and shouted to Divine Doctor Fu: "It's nonsense, this emperor's uncle is obviously poisoned, where is the state of the heart disease you said is so serious that you are demons, you are also worthy of being called a divine doctor?"
When Doctor Fu heard that someone dared to question his diagnosis, he immediately became displeased and said: "Who are you? I have been a doctor for so many years, is my experience not as good as that of a yellow-mouthed child who is not skilled in medicine? I said that the emperor is the demon in the heart, and the demon in the heart is the demon in the center, if you dare to tell right and wrong again, I will immediately ask the guards to drive you out!"
Han Lingmo has been with Bai Yang for so long, so he naturally understands that he will not make judgments, and he must have seen some clues. But Divine Doctor Fu is her father's exclusive imperial doctor, even if he has no merit, he has hard work, his life depends on him to survive until now, even she doesn't dare to offend him easily.
Therefore, Han Lingmo asked uncertainly: "Brother Baiyang, how do you know that my father is poisoned?"
Bai Yang snorted coldly and explained lightly: "Originally, I wasn't sure that Uncle Emperor was poisoned, but since he spit out that mouthful of black blood, I'm 100% sure. Sister Lingmo, you should still remember the corrupt aura we encountered in the Ancient Temple, your father was poisoned by the corrupt demonic mist, if you don't believe it, you can take a closer look at the pool of black blood, there is clearly a faint demonic aura on it, it is exactly the same as the corrupted demonic mist!"
After listening to Bai Yang's words, Han Lingmo immediately became conscious, and couldn't wait to take a look at the pool of black blood, and there was indeed a faint aura of corrupt demonic mist on it. Her pretty face immediately turned cold, and she questioned Divine Doctor Fu, "Divine Doctor Fu, what the hell is going on? Why did my father fall under the poison of the corrupting demonic mist?"
Divine Doctor Fu's face immediately turned pale, and he explained with some embarrassment: "Seventh Princess, I really don't know how the emperor could be poisoned by the corrupting demon mist? I have never seen this poison in my life, it may be a wrong diagnosis, I hope you don't be surprised!"
Bai Yang sneered: "The diagnosis is wrong, as a miracle doctor, you can't even tell that the emperor's uncle has been poisoned, I think you obviously have a ghost in your heart." If I'm not mistaken, the reason why he was poisoned by the corrupting demonic mist is because of you!"
Divine Doctor Fu immediately turned horrified, gritted his teeth in anger, and retorted strongly: "You are simply a bloody spurt, how can you say that I gave the emperor a corrupt demonic mist? What good will it do me if I do this? If you slander me without evidence, I will immediately order the guards to execute you, come on, take him down for me!"
So the guards next to him immediately rushed up, wanting to get rid of Bai Yang, but at this moment, Han Lingmo immediately waved his hand and shouted: "Stop me! When can even Divine Doctor Fu order you? With me here, no one should want to hurt Bai Yang's younger brother at all, besides, no one of you is his opponent at all, so give me a retreat!"
The guards could only obey and obediently retreat. After that, Han Lingmo turned his head to look at Bai Yang and asked suspiciously, "Brother Bai Yang, how do you know that it was the corrupt demon mist that Divine Doctor Fu gave to my father?"
Bai Yang chuckled lightly, and immediately spoke in an orderly manner......
