Everyone nodded and expressed their admiration for the old lady's great wisdom.
As he said this, Xiao Xian and Shen Mingzhu were already preparing to go to the palace.
It's still when the sun sets in the west, and you can prepare to retreat within an hour of entering the palace.
Concubine Xie gave a few more instructions and then personally escorted them out of the second door.
Shen Mingzhu and Xiao Xian still took the carriage of Prince Yan's Mansion and entered the palace.
This time when they arrived at the palace gate, they were greeted by people from a distance. When they saw their chariots, they immediately went to report, and then continued to report inside until they arrived at Eunuch Han and Eunuch Liu.
It was Qu Shui who went up to negotiate as usual, but this time he let them enter the palace directly without looking at any status cards.
Xiao Xian and Shen Mingzhu did not break the rules. They got off the carriage after entering the palace and left the carriage at the palace gate. They entered the palace on foot.
When the two of them arrived at the gate of Qianqing Palace, Eunuch Han cautiously went to report to the emperor.
"Tianjia, King Yan and Shen Mingzhu are here."
The emperor was leaning on the couch and panting. Ever since the eldest princess sent the news that Shen Mingzhu might be his nemesis for the throne and that he wanted to kill Shen Mingzhu and had a falling out with Xiao Xian, he felt that his health was getting worse and worse.
Especially when he later learned that Xiao Xian was not his son!
The trouble he had been having for so long caused his blood to surge up and pour into his brain. He suffered from heart palpitations, dizziness, palpitations, and a pounding heartbeat, so he started taking a lot of medicine.
But after taking medicine, the situation still couldn't be cured, and it caused him to suffer from insomnia for a long time, so he gradually became obsessed with the elixir.
It was Ye Sheng who still found two Taoist Immortals for him. It was said that they were on equal terms with Chong Xuzi and Ling Xuzi and had profound magical powers.
Moreover, the elixir practiced by these two people indeed made him fall asleep, and his body began to gain strength. The emperor trusted and relied on them more and more.
But he also found that if he didn't take the elixir at this time, he would feel uncomfortable, heart-wrenching and heart-wrenching.
It just so happened that the elixir was broken today, and no new elixir has come out of the elixir furnace. According to the immortal, refining elixirs is inherently difficult. It not only depends on the technology and the quality of the medicinal materials, but also depends on the chance of success and the rate of elixir success. It was only 30%, so even though I was refining the elixir day and night, there was no guarantee that the elixir would come out every time I opened the furnace.
Especially the emperor ate more and more frequently and ate more and more.
He used to take one pill every ten days, then one pill every three to five days, then he wished he could take one pill a day, and now he feels like he needs three pills a day.
Naturally, the elixir will not be enough if you take it this way.
But the emperor didn't care. Isn't the vast country not enough for him as an emperor?
Now Xiao Xian and Shen Mingzhu have entered the palace, but he is not in good condition. Doesn't this embarrass him?
How could he show weakness in front of these two people?
But now that the two of them have arrived at the palace gate, what should they do?
Eunuch Han knelt there to ask for instructions. He listened to the emperor breathing loudly like a bellows. He was shivering with cold and dared not move. However, his knees still hurt like needles, which made him unbearable.
Suddenly, the emperor sat up suddenly, waved his broad sleeves and sneered: "What are you doing here? You won't come when you should come, and you will come when you shouldn't. Let them go back first, I don't have time today. Meet them."
He got off the ground and walked back and forth twice, his wide sleeves and hem flying in the wind.
Although it was still cold, he wore very little, just a loose outer robe outside his middle coat. He also had people open the doors and windows in the palace. The main hall of Qianqing Palace was very high, and the wind was blowing. Pour it in.
