The widowed sister-in-law is embarrassed, she criticizes the villain like he only wants to be a love

Late night

Tai Chi Hall

A middle-aged man with a thin body and a sickly face was lying on the dragon couch, coughing from time to time.

The serving eunuch hurriedly came forward.

"Your Majesty, Taoist Priest Yuan An is asking for an audience outside the palace."

The old emperor's gray eyes suddenly lit up.

"Ahem..., please, please."

A moment later, a Taoist priest wearing a green robe and holding a fly whisk entered the hall. He was wearing a purple sun scarf, with a handsome figure, elegant posture and extraordinary temperament.

This is none other than Yuan An, the Taoist priest most trusted by His Majesty today.

"Yuan An meets His Majesty."

The old emperor supported his weak body and slowly sat up: "Taoist Priest Yuan'an, please sit down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Yuan An walked to the dragon couch and sat down: "Your Majesty has looked much better these past two days."

"Ever since I took the golden elixir given by the Taoist Master, I have often felt a surge of heat in my body these past few days, and my energy and energy have become stronger than before."

Yuan An smiled, took out a small rosewood box, and offered it with both hands.

"This is an elixir that Pindao has just refined. It can nourish the essence and blood and strengthen the body."

The old emperor reached out to take the wooden box, opened it and took a look. There were six pills inside.

He pondered for a moment and then asked: "Taoist Priest, if I insist on taking this golden elixir, how long will my lifespan last?"

Yuan An took a deep look at the old emperor: "Taoism talks about obeying heaven and obeying destiny. If your majesty follows the way of heaven, your longevity may not be more than two years."

The old emperor's heart fell to the bottom.

"No, I am the True Dragon Emperor, how could my lifespan be so short?"

Yuan An sighed: "Destiny cannot be violated."

The old emperor gradually calmed down: "I heard that your Taoist family is helping people to extend their lives. Is this possible?"

Yuan An nodded: "It is true that you can extend your life through secret techniques, but your Majesty is the True Dragon Emperor, and the luck of ordinary people is of no use to you, unless you find someone who has the luck of the emperor like you, and can use the seven-star lamp to extend your life. Give this person's luck to Your Majesty, so that this person's lifespan can be transferred to Your Majesty."

The old emperor's heart beat faster, and something suddenly occurred to him.

His gray eyes stared straight at Yuan An for a while.

"Ahem..., there are recent rumors in the capital that there is an emperor's spirit in the northwest. Does the Taoist think this is someone deliberately spreading rumors or is it true?"

"true!"

The old emperor frowned, his expression gloomy and unpredictable.

"who's that person?"

Yuan An looked at the old prince, with a faint smile on his thin lips.

"Your Majesty should have already guessed it."

Back then, the first empress fell from a building and died, the entire Feng family was wiped out, and the four-year-old prince was deposed and sent to the cold palace. All of this was planned by His Majesty the Emperor behind the scenes.

His biological son was humiliated, beaten and mistreated by eunuchs and maids in the cold palace. Naturally, there was the tacit approval of the old emperor behind this.

He wanted to concentrate the imperial power. The Feng family, which had three generations of hereditary vassals, naturally became a thorn in the old emperor's heart. The seventh prince had the blood of the Feng family, and the old emperor wanted to get rid of it.

Over the years, it seemed that the Queen was secretly tracking down the whereabouts of the Seventh Prince, but in fact, the secret was also authorized by the Emperor.

Now that he knows that the son he wants to eradicate is destined to be emperor, how can his majesty, who is greedy for imperial power, tolerate it?

There was silence in the hall for a long time, and the old emperor said slowly: "Lao Qi has been living among the people for 11 years, and it's time to come back."

Outside the palace, a pink-clad palace maid on duty suddenly clutched her belly and frowned.

"Eunuch Yang, this slave suddenly feels severe cramping in her abdomen. Maybe she has a bad stomach. She wants to... want to go out!"

Eunuch Yang looked disgusted.

"Go quickly."

"Yes!"

The maid held her stomach and trotted away.

She walked straight through the imperial garden and came to a rockery to look around.

Seeing a familiar figure walking this way, the maid ducked into the rockery.

After a while, a young father-in-law hurried over.

"Inform the master..."

The maid leaned over to the young father-in-law and whispered in his ear for a while.

The little father-in-law immediately nodded in agreement.

Weiyang Palace

Queen Chen's personal maid slowly walked into the palace.

"Miss."

Empress Chen is wearing a purple floor-embellished dress and her hair is slanted in a bun full of pearls. She is graceful, graceful and charming. Even though she is nearly forty years old, she is still extremely beautiful.

"Has there been any news from Tianji Pavilion?"

The maid walked to Queen Chen and whispered: "The one hundred Tianzi No. 37 killers sent out a while ago were intercepted and killed by a group of mysterious people as soon as they left the capital. The remaining [-] people arrived at Nanwei Mansion. Then there was no news from him.”

Empress Chen was playing with a pair of jade bracelets presented as tribute from the Western Regions in her hands, and her red lips curled up into a cold smile.

"I really underestimated that little beast before, but now it seems that the third prince was intercepted and killed on the way that day and this little beast must have something to do with it."

The maid then said: "There was news from Taiji Palace just now that His Majesty intends to appoint a crown prince, and asked Yu Lin Zhonglang, General Su Ji, to go to Nanwei Mansion to find him."

"Dangdang!"

A pair of white jade bracelets fell to the ground and shattered instantly.

"Where's Yuan An?"

"Taoist Priest Yuan'an is currently discussing matters in His Majesty's Tai Chi Hall."

"You go and wait outside the Taiji Palace. When Yuan An comes out, tell him that I have an illness at the head of the palace and ask him to come to Weiyang Palace."

"Yes!"

After the maid left, Queen Chen's beautiful eyes fell on the stunning face in the bronze mirror, with a fierce look in her eyes.

About half an hour later

Yuan An, who was dressed in an immortal style, followed the maid into Weiyang Palace.

Queen Chen dismissed the maids in the palace.

Yuan An's peach blossom eyes fell on Queen Chen.

"Yuanan meets your empress."

Queen Chen stared at the man below her quietly, her peach blossom eyes seemed to look at everyone with deep affection.

"Your Majesty wants to get that little beast back, but what's your idea?"

With His Majesty's grudge against the Feng family, it is impossible for him to hand over the throne to someone with the blood of the Feng family.

Thinking of that little beast at this time, there must be a reason for it.

Yuan An smiled faintly: "Your Majesty is extremely intelligent, and nothing can be hidden from your eyes."

"Why do this?"

Yuan An walked up to Queen Chen, reached out and gently held Queen Chen's hand, his eyes full of infatuation.

"The killers sent by Tianji Pavilion to Nanwei Mansion in the past two years have lost hundreds of people. As long as the killers leave the capital, they will soon be intercepted by a group of mysterious people. Madam, that kid is more difficult than we thought. It’s a lot to deal with.”

Queen Chen naturally knew this in her heart.

This time Tianji Pavilion sent Tianzi No. [-]'s top killers, but in the end these people disappeared into the sea.

It is enough to show that the force behind the interception is very powerful.

"Who is helping that little beast?"

None of the waves of killers sent out have come back alive, so she still doesn't know what that force is.

"Xuanzongmen."
