Chapter 92 The Past
"Why don't you speak?"
Li Yannian asked calmly.
His tall figure completely enveloped the short alchemist below.
The alchemist in the shadow was trembling. Although the Great Purple Bright Palace was bright and warm at this moment, he felt extremely cold, just like the emperor's voice was obviously very light, but it fell extremely heavy in his heart.
The short alchemist couldn't help but swallowed. He secretly raised his eyes, but the moment he saw the emperor's expression, the short alchemist felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
'will die! ’
‘You will definitely die! ’
His mind sent out a fierce warning.
A flush appeared on the emperor's originally pale and withered face. The madness and struggle mixed with morbidity frightened the alchemist.
At this moment, he felt extremely regretful. He should not have tried to alienate the Tian family for the sake of his overwhelming power and wealth.
But the arrow was on the string and had to be fired. The short alchemist raised the jade slip in his hand high,
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
"Plant the heart of the prince in exchange for the prince's blood, that's all..."
"Ah!"
Li Yannian gritted his teeth and clapped his hands before the alchemist finished speaking.
Boom!
Amidst the huge roar, the short alchemist's whole body immediately exploded and turned into a puddle of flesh.
All the attendants in the hall knelt down. They did not dare to breathe for fear that their actions would attract the emperor's attention.
"After cleaning it, feed it to the dog."
"promise!"
The soldiers hidden behind the layers of curtains stepped forward silently. After cleaning up the remains of the alchemists, they returned to their original positions.
Li Yannian couldn't help coughing heavily, and he felt even more tired.
"Your Majesty, please calm down!"
Seeing this, Jueyin Luo quickly handed over the elixir and soup. After taking it, Li Yannian felt that his cold and painful body had improved slightly.
"Your Majesty, maybe..."
Jueyinluo picked up the jade slip and was about to speak when he suddenly choked. He was shocked by Li Yannian's eyes.
I could see the sternness and chill in those slightly narrowed eyes, just like the counterattack of a bloodthirsty beast before dying, with an unconcealed madness. Jueyin Luo Wu's heart was close to the ground, but he still bit Yajiang expressed his thoughts: "Your Majesty, I think this is the method..."
Click!
Li Yannian slammed the cup in his hand on Jueyin Luo's head.
"I told you to shut up!"
"Your Majesty, maybe this method can really restore you to your original state?"
Boom!
Jueyin Luo was kicked away, and he hit the bronze pillar hard. When he opened his mouth to spit out, some internal organ fragments flowed out. Jueyin Luo felt that his ribs were completely broken, but he still endured the violent pain. The pain creeps back.
"His Majesty!"
"shut up!"
Li Yannian roared.
He panted heavily and looked at Jueyin Luo, who was lying at his feet. Li Yannian still wanted to make a move, but the fatigue and pain that surged throughout his body forced him to lie down on the bed again.
"Jueyin Luo, after all, I am old, and even you dare to disobey my will."
"Over and over again..."
Before he finished speaking, blood flowed out from the corners of his mouth. Li Yannian bent over, and large mouthfuls of blood spurted out instantly.
"Hey, it seems that I am not only getting old, but I am also going to die!"
"His Majesty!"
Jueyinluo wept and kowtowed.
Li Yannian seemed unaware. He listened to the rustling raindrops outside the Sichuan River and felt that his life would disappear with the rain.
"The fact that I was able to pacify the Miao territory in my later years can be regarded as having done something for Jin'er."
He thought of the prince, who was his and the queen's first child. From the moment he was born, he was granted the title of Eastern Palace and received all the attention and favor.
What is Jin'er doing now?
And what is the queen doing?
Li Yannian's thoughts gradually dispersed, and his figure slowly retreated into the bed. As the layers of curtains hung down, his tall figure began to become blurred.
"Where is Jin'er now?"
"In Ziwei Pavilion."
"Did all the ministers cooperate?"
"There is a tacit understanding."
"Is there anything unusual during the days when I was in coma?"
Jueyinluo took out a scroll from his sleeve robe.
Li Yannian glanced at it and sneered.
‘It seems that I am indeed getting old. ’
‘They are so old that they dare to join forces and cause trouble under my nose. ’
No, that's not right.
They don't see me as old, but they see me as dying.
Some of the old men on the list are older than me, but that doesn't stop them from running back and forth to win over and consolidate the hearts of the prince. Their ambition and greed are still burning brightly.
But I can only lie in bed and wait for death!
Who am I for?
What is the purpose of my fight with Emperor Chi?
Li Yannian opened his clothes and felt a little out of breath.
He wanted to get up and move around, but he was tired.
In the end, he could only grunt and cast his eyes on the scroll again. He felt that his vision was slightly blurred. He could only see the pitch-black list and their deeds in these days, mixed with the bright red blood on his front. together.
The color was as turbid as his own mood.
"I shouldn't blame them."
"Birth, old age, illness and death, the replacement of the old with the new are the laws of heaven and earth. Who can force it?"
"What's more, Jin'er's supervision of the country is also my tacit approval."
"They also want to inherit their family and continue it for future generations. This is understandable."
Li Yannian continued to relieve his emotions. Although he thought so, he still felt that there was a flame burning slowly in his heart. This fire was not strong, but a slow fire. It was burning and burning little by little. ,
It didn't seem like it was enough to make him want to roar like crazy, but if he wanted to ignore it, that was absolutely impossible.
Li Yannian was lost in thought for a long time, and finally cast his sight on the location where the remains of the short alchemist fell.
"Plant the prince's heart in exchange for the prince's blood."
Ah!
What a lie.
With what I can do, there is no one in this world whose heart can match mine. They are not worthy.
But these eight characters were still flashing in his mind.
"Jueyin Luo."
"I'm here!"
After hesitating for a while, Li Yannian finally said:
"Spread this secret technique."
"promise!"
In the flickering candlelight, there seemed to be countless black shadows slowly squirming in the huge palace.
‘I hope you won’t disappoint me! ’
‘Don’t give me a chance...’
Li Yannian murmured to himself.
······
As the secret technique spread, the atmosphere in the entire capital suddenly changed.
The prince was afraid.
Not only him, but the ministers were even worse.
There was no longer the free speech in the court hall as in the past few days, and the splendid hall was as silent as a mourning hall.
"Do you ministers have anything to report?"
"Right Prime Minister?"
Under the expectant gaze of the prince, the majestic right minister shook his head: "I will hand over the memorial to Lord Jueyinluo!"
The prince felt panic and anger in his heart.
How many years has it been? How many years has it been? Why hasn't this heavy and terrifying shadow dissipated?
It was obviously going to disappear, so why did it cover the entire capital again?
Why! !
