Chapter 2041 Changes, Wang Chong’s Uneasiness!

But in the main hall, no one knew this. Seeing An Yaluoshan's actions, everyone subconsciously glanced over. Feast of all nations, the trip to the capital, although everyone successfully returned to Youzhou, Yan Zhuang stayed there forever, and An Yaluoshan also lost one of his right ears by Wang Chong, and the whole person looked weird. , This is also the eternal pain in An Yaluoshan's heart. "When China is destroyed, I will be the first to cut him into pieces to vent my hatred!" An Yaluoshan said bitterly, with overwhelming hatred in his eyes. ...Time passed slowly, and no one knew exactly what happened in Tai Chi Hall that day. I only know that after that day, the entire Tang Dynasty finally returned to normal. The wise and powerful Holy Emperor who was familiar to everyone appeared in the court again. However, in a short period of time, all the ridiculous orders issued before were removed. The Taiping Tower was demolished, and the draft orders in various places were also removed. Xuan Mingzi, who once bewitched San Zixuan and refined the "elixir" for him, saw that the situation was not good and wanted to escape, but was ambushed early. The imperial guards and the royal family captured him on the spot and put him in a prison. The Holy Emperor issued an edict to commend the prince and boast about his character and cultivation. The relegated censors and important officials in various places also received orders and were recalled one by one and their officials were restored to their original posts. For the important civil and military ministers in the imperial court, this is definitely the most exciting news in months. Looking back on the past, all the performances of the Holy Emperor seemed like a dream, but no matter what, this result now is exactly what everyone dreams of and wants to see most. There was excitement inside and outside the court, and the entire court swept away the previous decline and restored the previous clear and bright order. However, despite the excitement inside and outside the court, Wang Chong always felt deeply uneasy in his heart. "How is it?" In the palace of the foreign king, Wang Chong stood tall and dressed in uniform, looking at Zhang Que in front of the door. His brows were furrowed, and there was a hint of deep worry in his eyes. "Back to the prince, Eunuch Bian has sent a message. He asked someone to investigate secretly. Everything is as usual at your majesty's place. It's just that the dishes sent by the palace maids are getting less and less every day, which is far worse than before." "Huanyifang." What do you say over there?" Wang Chong asked again. "Everything is as usual!" Zhang Que bowed his waist and said in a deep voice, paused and hesitated: "However, we checked the dragon robes received by Huanyifang a few days ago, and there was a faint trace of light on the cuffs of one of the dragon robes. Yes, it seems that the blood has been evaporated by Gang Qi. Because the color is very light and it has been soaked in water, we can't tell for the moment!" Zhang Que said. Buzz! When Wang Chong heard the word "blood stains", his eyebrows jumped, and his whole expression changed instantly. Collecting the emperor's affairs in the palace is a taboo for ministers. Otherwise, he will be known as someone with evil intentions, but Wang Chong no longer cares about it. "How could this happen?" Wang Chong's heart kept rising. The Holy Emperor was the aspiration of the world's people and the spiritual pillar of the empire. Everything about him must be properly handled. It was absolutely impossible for Zhang Que to find blood stains on the Holy Emperor. However, Wang Chong also knew that what Zhang Que and the others found could not be ordinary stains. It was impossible for any stains to fall on someone with a cultivation level of the Holy Emperor. "Is the colorful glazed grass I was looking for still useless?" Wang Chong raised his head and murmured in his heart. Although the ancient scriptures found earlier mentioned that the colorful glazed grass can be effective in treating injuries that failed to attack the divine martial realm, it did not mention how to refine the colorful glazed sacred grass into elixirs, how to swallow them, and the specific methods of healing. Wang Chong crushed the sacred grass into dust in the Tai Chi Palace and dispersed it into the void. It was only a temporary expedient for San Zixuan to absorb it. Even Wang Chong didn't know whether it would have any effect by then. But judging from the information Zhang Que collected from the harem, it doesn't look like good news. Moreover, this is not the only thing that worries Wang Chong. The Holy Emperor failed to attack the Divine Martial Realm, and his skills deteriorated day by day. This happened long before his rebirth, and according to his memory, the Holy Emperor fell during this time in his previous life. Therefore, after returning from the capital last time, Wang Chong felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart. However, Wang Chong never mentioned it in front of Zhang Que and the others.

Likewise, he didn't know whether the previous efforts, including the sacred grass, had worked, and how effective they were? Everything is unknown. What Wang Chong can do is to pay full attention to and continue to monitor the development of this matter. "Crack!" Just when Wang Chong was thinking, a sound of flapping wings suddenly reached his ears. Wang Chong subconsciously raised his head and saw a homing pigeon with pale golden feathers and graceful flying posture flying in from the outside. A gold ring on its right foot was clearly visible. "Your Majesty, this is a letter from King Song!" Zhang Que stretched out his hand to catch the carrier pigeon, removed the letterhead, and quickly handed it to Wang Chong. Zhang Que is responsible for all information exchanges under his sect, and he is very familiar with the carrier pigeons of the Song Dynasty. "I understand, go down." Wang Chong took the letter, nodded, and said calmly. Although Wang Chong has the right to participate in politics, he has already withdrawn from the court. Now that the world is at peace and there is no worry of war, there is no need for him to go to the court to discuss. As for other official administration and local government affairs, the group of veterans in the court are much better at it than he is. With them here, without him, He is no different. Therefore, Wang Chong naturally did not participate in the court very much. But despite this, the civil and military ministers in the court, including the King of Song, would still come to Wang Chong to discuss many matters. Zhang Que left quickly, and the hall was quiet. Wang Chong opened the letter and started reading it quickly. The letters from King Song were all about trivial matters, such as the return of the Holy Emperor, the joy of the veterans, the cancellation of the draft, the relief in the local area... At the same time, they also shared with Wang Chong some exciting news about how the Tang Dynasty was flourishing and back on track. information. He also wrote in his letter that he and Zhangchou Jianqiong worked together to deal with Prime Minister Li Linfu. Wang Chong couldn't help but smile when he saw this. Li Linfu is too deep in the city and too hidden. He has a strong sense of power, but the biggest problem is that he does not know what is right and wrong. An Yaluoshan was a barbarian who harbored evil intentions. Not only did he frame Zhang Shougui, he also colluded with Goguryeo and other countries. Li Linfu just wanted to deal with himself and weaken his relationship with the King of Song, so he colluded with An Yaluoshan. This made all his early efforts Destroyed. Although there is no conclusive evidence, people inside and outside the court are no longer kept in the dark about this "Ming Prime Minister" who has been working for decades. At least the King of Song, Zhangchou Jianqiong and others have recognized the true face of this "Ming Prime Minister". Looking at the whole letter, there was not much content. It was similar to the previous letters sent by King Song. However, at the end of the letter, something mentioned by King Song made Wang Chong's pupils shrink and his expression changed slightly. The King of Song mentioned in his letter that since everything returned to normal, the Holy Emperor went to court every day and did good deeds, and the court returned to its previous appearance. However, King Song, Zhangchou Jianqiong and others also noticed one thing. Although the Holy Emperor went to court every day, he gradually seemed tired and unable to do his job. Often halfway through the court, a trace of fatigue would appear on the Holy Emperor's face. Not only that, but for some reason, King Song felt that the Holy Emperor had aged a lot since he returned to the throne. It was not just the King of Song who felt this way, but also many veterans in the court. During one court meeting, King Song, Zhangchou Jianqiong and others even vaguely felt that the Holy Emperor seemed to have a few more white hairs on his head. However, the Holy Emperor did not show any discomfort for the time being, and the daily court meeting was carried out normally, so King Song and others It’s not easy for people to say. However, the King of Song and Zhangchou Jianqiong have discussed forming a new group of more experienced cabinets to handle the affairs of the court, so as to relieve the pressure on the Holy Emperor and allow the Holy Emperor to recuperate and recuperate. King Song and others have already attracted many ministers, and now they still need Wang Chong's signature. What concerned Wang Chong was not the formation of a new cabinet, nor the need for his signature, but the news about the Holy Emperor revealed in the Song Dynasty. It has only been more than ten days since the return of the Holy Emperor. At the beginning, Wang Chong also went to court and met the Holy Emperor. At that time, everything was as usual, but within a short period of time, King Song said that the Holy Emperor appeared. Tired and old, how is this possible? In an instant, Wang Chong's heart suddenly became extremely heavy. The food intake has decreased, the blood stains on his sleeves, the fatigue and old appearance in the court... At this moment, many thoughts passed through Wang Chong's mind. "Could it be..." In the flash of lightning, a thought appeared in Wang Chong's mind. However, Wang Chong's heart trembled and he did not dare to think about it any more. "I hope everything is not what I thought, Your Majesty..."...At the same time, deep in the palace. The breeze blew and the door opened. The Holy Emperor sat high above, looking ahead. His eyes swept through the many spaces, passed through the gate of Taiji Hall, and looked at the great capital in front, as well as the endless mountains and rivers beyond. The air flow surged past the ears of the wise king. At this time, there were many fine wrinkles on that wise and wise face, and there was a faint hint of age. If King Song and Zhangchou Jianqiong were here, they would definitely be quite surprised, because the Holy Emperor's appearance when they saw him in the court had obviously changed a lot, and he was even older. Ordinary people may only show a trace of aging in a year, but in the Holy Emperor, this change seems to be calculated on a daily basis. But despite this, those eyes that shocked everyone, created an era, and awed countless strong men and kings are still as sharp as before, full of a consistent firmness, calmness, persistence, and unparalleled confidence. . That is a power that even time and death cannot surrender and yield to! "Your Majesty, it's time for you to rest." A voice suddenly came from behind. Gao Lishi stood aside, looking at the darkening sky, and suddenly said, with a hint of worry in his voice.
