Lu Zhaoyi recently felt that something was wrong with the emperor.
Not only do they love extravagance and enjoy themselves, but they also act more and more wantonly and wildly.
If he is slightly dissatisfied, he will be beaten and scolded at every turn.
The eunuchs around him have almost changed.
How should I put it, it's like he's a different person.
His tone of voice and his style of doing things are completely different from before.
Except for his appearance, everything else feels like he's a different person.
After some lingering, the emperor fell into a deep sleep.
She pinched his ears but he didn't respond.
He was in a deep sleep.
His face was rosy, but the color seemed a bit too glamorous.
Lu Zhaoyi lifted his hair and stretched his neck until he saw the crescent-shaped birthmark directly behind his neck, and the doubts in his heart slowly disappeared.
"My dear concubine, why are you still not sleeping?"
Lu Zhaoyi's clothes were removed below her shoulders, revealing her smooth and white shoulders.
The emperor lowered his head and kissed them gently.
He put his hands on Lu Zhaoyi's slender waist, looking like he was in love with the person in his arms and was about to be fascinated by her.
"Your Majesty, my right eye keeps beating, and my heart keeps panicking."
Lu Zhaoyi sat up, "Your Majesty, do you have to take this pill?
Your Majesty has changed a lot recently, and I am a little scared."
"I have changed a lot."
The emperor raised his eyebrows and smiled evilly, "My dear concubine, come and see where I have changed."
The emperor said, opening his collar.
Lu Zhaoyi's whole face turned red with embarrassment.
The emperor was very frail half a year ago, but now he has become muscular.
You can get a glimpse of it through the open collar.
Lu Zhaoyi lay lazily on the emperor, looking very charming.
The emperor became angry just by looking at her.
He pressed her down and kissed her hard.
Lu Zhaoyi said she didn't feel well.
The emperor hugged her and said some loving words, and said he would treat her well.
Lu Zhaoyi nestled in his arms, feeling the rare tenderness.
The emperor also felt a rare sense of peace.
Only by being around Lu Zhaoyi could the emperor relax for a short period of time.
It was a kind of enjoyment to look at her quietly.
She was different from the vulgar women in the harem.
She is a woman who does not love vanity but has substance.
Think wholeheartedly about him.
"Your Majesty, it is medicine that is three parts poison.
Since ancient times, has any emperor truly been able to live forever?
But none of the emperors who indulged themselves in elixir refining would live long in the end."
Lu Zhaoyi raised his voice, his words full of worry.
These words immediately made the emperor unhappy, "Don't compare the Taoist priest's elixir with those who are half-hearted at refining it.
The Taoist priest's elixir can prolong life."
"Your Majesty, do you believe in immortality?
Is there anyone in this world who is really immortal?

People always get older, just like my concubine.
She looks just right in color, but in fact, she has wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.
Your Majesty, people You always get old, beauties grow old, heroes reach old age, people Life, aging, sickness and death are unchangeable.
Your Majesty, after reading the books of sages for so many years, you should know more than this little woman like me.
Your Majesty wants to become an immortal, why should you leave Brother Rui and me alone?"
Lu Zhaoyi said.
In the emperor's arms, his body trembled slightly.
"Of course I won't.
When that time comes, I will take you with me."
"I don't ask for immortality, it's enough to stay with Your Majesty forever."
Lu Zhaoyi said boldly, "Your Majesty's temper has changed a lot during this period, and I always feel uneasy.
I think that the real A master should devote himself to the pursuit of Taoism.
There is no such thing as a covetous person who is greedy for glory and wealth.
In my humble opinion, the new Taoist priest is just a person who is just trying to gain fame."
"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible.
My health has become so good because of the elixir."
The emperor suddenly became angry.
If someone else had questioned his magic medicine, he would have chopped that person into pieces, but it was Lu Zhaoyi who couldn't bear the slightest bit of violence.
The emperor was wearing only a thin pair of trousers.
The muscles on his back and chest were well developed, and the lines were graceful and smooth.
His well-defined abdominal muscles looked particularly beautiful under the candlelight.
While caressing his abdominal muscles, the emperor spoke slowly, "My dear concubine, my physique is considered to be perfect."
Lu Zhaoyi stamped her foot anxiously, "Your Majesty, why can't you trust me for once?
How did the previous emperor die?
Has your Majesty forgotten?"
"Be careful, my beloved concubine."
The emperor threw the flower and his eyes were sharp.
"I didn't mean that, Your Majesty, please forgive me."
Lu Zhaoyi knelt down, and the flower fragments scratched her knees.
"Tell the imperial physician."
The emperor hugged her and was reluctant to let go, but he really didn't want to make her angry.
"Let the imperial physician look at your injuries, and then take my pulse to see if this elixir is poisonous."
"Your Majesty, your pulse is strong and your body is much better than before."
The imperial doctor took out a silver needle and pricked the emperor's blood vessel.
"This elixir is not poisonous.
If your Majesty is worried, you can stop for a while and find a death row prisoner to test the medicine."
"Your Majesty, I am still worried."
Lu Zhaoyi lowered his head.
"I listen to you."
The emperor nodded.
Lu Zhaoyi thought very simply.
He used a death row prisoner as a drug tester to confirm that the elixir was not poisonous and it would not be too late to take it again.
"All the ministers are the pillars of the country and have made great contributions to the prosperity of the country, but there are always one or two black sheep."
The emperor flicked the sword on his waist, and the cold weapon collided with the hard wood, making a strange sound.
The whole hall was silent.

The ministers looked at me and I looked at you, feeling an ominous premonition in their hearts.
"I have heard such an interesting thing these days.
The officials of the imperial court can be bought at a clearly marked price, and there is even a saying that the one with the highest price can buy it."
The emperor smiled coldly.
"Except for domestic slaves, actors and actresses, etc., who are not allowed to buy an official position, as long as others have money, whether they steal, rob or join forces, and whether they are market scoundrels or local gangsters, as long as they have enough money, they can hand over the money and hand over the official position. , and it’s genuine.”
At this point, the violence, hatred, madness and other negative emotions hidden in the emperor's eyes were completely undisguised.
"Your Majesty, please calm down.
Your Majesty, please calm down."
The ministers all knelt down.
The emperor looked at the ministers with deep and unpredictable eyes, "The price of local officials is twice as high as that of court officials, and the prices of county officials are different.
Officials must also pay according to the price for promotion.
Small officials can spend money to buy a big turtle.
"If you lose your job because you made a mistake, you can buy it back and get your job back.
This sounds really ridiculous."
The emperor seemed furious, his handsome face full of anger.
Eunuch Li said a few words in the emperor's ear, and he nodded in agreement.
"The Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Guard has been declared to appear."
The commander of the Imperial Guard came in and presented a wooden box to the emperor.
After opening the box, the emperor had an account book in his hand.
He picked it up without looking at it, but first gave the Minister of Personnel a meaningful look.
"This account book is very interesting."
He said and waved his hand to send it down.
How can ministers not recognize the contents of this account book?
They had discussed the matter of selling their official positions before they implemented it.
What was written in this account book was none other than the profits they gained from selling their official positions.
The most fearful person here is Li Jinbao, the Minister of Civil Affairs.
He even knows what is written in it because he is the one who handled it.
He held the thick account book in his hand, but it seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and cold sweat slowly soaked his back.
"What's wrong, Mr.
Li, why don't you open it and take a look?"
the emperor said aggressively.
Li Jinbao's face turned a little pale.
He took a deep breath, glanced at it for a moment, and knelt down.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, please forgive me."
He cried so hard that his eyes were full of tears and his nose was full of snot.
He shouted for mercy, and a small patch of water became wet on the ground. , a strange smell filled the hall.
The emperor threw the sword over and hit Li Jinbao on the head, causing blood to flow out immediately.
"Ai Qing is so brave."
Li Jinbao's lips were trembling, and blood covered one of his eyes, making it difficult for him to see clearly the emperor's expression.
"Your Majesty, please give me a chance to make meritorious deeds.
I don't want to die."
The emperor didn't want to hear it at all, "Someone, drag him down."
As soon as he finished speaking, two guards in black appeared.
Li Jinbao was silenced by the guards in black before he could shout a few words, and was quickly dragged out.
No one in the hall dared to say a word for him.

A moment later, he came in carrying a bloody head, and blood was sprinkled on the floor.
Because he died so quickly, the expression on his face was still shocked, and he didn't even have time to close his eyes.
The emperor was sitting on the dragon chair, playing with the jade ring in his hand.
His eyes were slightly red, because he was a little excited after seeing blood.
The dignified minister of the Ministry of Personnel was chopped down just like chopping vegetables and melons in the vegetable market.
This scene almost frightened the civil servants who had never seen blood.
The emperor didn't like others to question him, and he didn't like others to be rude to him, so his solution was very simple, just drag him out.
"Master Li died like this just now.
I suddenly don't remember."
The emperor looked at Taishi with a half-smile.
Taishi hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Mr.
Li was so audacious that he endangered the country, the country, and the country.
He felt that he was not as good as a pig or a dog, so he crashed into a pillar and died."
The emperor looked over with satisfaction, "Then what should I do?"
Taishi's whole body was lying on the ground, his posture was very low, "Master Li is ambitious and sinful.
According to the humble minister, this really gives him an advantage.
It seems that such a treacherous minister deserves to be cut into pieces and fed to the dogs." ” The emperor sighed, "Master Li is unfaithful, unjust and unkind and deserves death.
If I cut him into pieces because of his behavior, it would be unbearable for me, and it would also make the world famous.
So be it, give me Lord Li, leave a whole body.”
He understood immediately that Taishi, who recorded the emperor's words and deeds, could be stupid.
He knelt even lower and said, "Your Majesty has a kind heart and is truly a wise king."
"If you have something to do, come to court if you have nothing to do."
Eunuch Li pinched his thin throat and shouted.
After the pleasure, he felt a little headache and a little bloated.
He attributed all this to sleeping late last night.
Eunuch Li noticed that the emperor's face was a little red and his eyeballs were bloodshot.
His heart skipped a beat and he obediently presented the elixir.
After the emperor took the elixir, he felt refreshed and ecstatic.
His whole body was very light, as if a gust of wind could blow him away.
After reading the pile of memorials, the emperor's head began to hurt again and his hands were shaking violently.
"Little Lizi, bring me the medicine."
Eunuch Li didn't speak for a long time.
The emperor was very upset and raised his head, "Rourou."
Lu Zhaoyi slammed the white fungus soup on the table and looked at him with a mocking look, which made the emperor feel guilty.
"Everyone, stand down."
The emperor shouted back Eunuch Li, but when he said to Lu Zhaoyi, he felt a little guilty, "Listen to my explanation."
"Your Majesty is the True Dragon Emperor, I dare not have any doubts."
Lu Zhaoyi's words were considerate and sensible, but his expression was different.
The emperor's heart tightened, and his heart beat rapidly and stung extremely.
A mouthful of blood immediately spurted out and splashed on the memorial in front of him.
"Come here, call the imperial doctor quickly."
Lu Zhaoyi was so frightened that she burst into tears.
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and then looked at the blood on his fingers.
He was stunned for a moment, and he actually vomited blood.
"Your Majesty, it's nothing serious.

It's just that the elixir is too tonic.
Don't take too much."
The imperial doctor took his pulse and said earnestly.
"I've only heard of nosebleeds caused by overdoing the patch.
This is the first time I've heard that overdoing it will cause vomiting of blood."
Lu Zhaoyi stared at the imperial doctor.
She always felt that although the emperor still looked strong, his spirit had weakened a lot, like a big tree that had lost many leaves.
"It's not surprising that he would vomit blood when he is in great joy or sorrow.
Not long ago, His Majesty fell while riding a horse and there was congestion in his abdomen.
It was a good thing that he vomited it out."
The imperial doctor was neither humble nor overbearing.
When he walked out of the hall, his legs softened and he fell.
He got up in a hurry, not even bothering to flick the dust on his clothes.
After returning, he claimed that he was sick.
There were just a few snowflakes at the beginning.
After a while, snowflakes were flying all over the sky in front of me, and the huge Cining Temple was covered with white snow.
Ru Huan held an oil-paper umbrella and walked with Tang Ning along the bluestone path.
Walking in the snow was a unique experience.
When I was tired from walking, I moved to the pavilion next to me.
Ru Huan wiped the stone bench with an embroidered handkerchief.
As soon as Tang Ning sat down, she looked up and saw a figure in front of her eyes.
The man was holding a small dusty umbrella, which was even covered by the edge of the umbrella.
But Tang Ning only needed to After glancing at the other person's slender figure and hands with thick knuckles, he recognized his identity.
The man moved over slowly, as fast as a snail.
"Mother, can you give the things to me?"
The man under the umbrella said in a hoarse voice.
"How are you, Your Majesty?"
Tang Ning covered her hands.
"Your Majesty vomited blood the day before yesterday.
I'm afraid, I'm afraid he won't be alive for a few days."
The man's body trembled.
He was quite tall, but he looked a little shivered.
"Take it and leave early.
You can't stay in this imperial city any longer."
Tang Ning threw the thing over.
The man took the things, turned around and ran away, leaving behind a series of messy footprints.
"My dear, don't be afraid of him talking nonsense."
In this world, only the dead can keep their mouths shut.
"Keep him alive so he doesn't dare to talk nonsense.
This deceiving the emperor is a serious crime of beheading."
Tang Ning stood up, admiring the snow scenery all the way, and walked to the Queen Mother's wing, "The Queen Mother has been here for the past few days.
Good.”
Tang Ning came to Cining Temple on the grounds that the Queen Mother was too ill to move and she wanted to fulfill her filial piety on behalf of the Emperor.
The palace is no longer safe.
