Day and night, after traveling for nearly 20 days, Bai Xijing and his party arrived at Linchuan Town, which is only one day away from the capital. Because it is close to the capital, it is also located in a traffic fortress, extending in all directions, and it is very prosperous.

Seeing that the night was approaching, Bai Xijing, who rode his horse at the front, reined in his horse and stopped, turned his head and said to a few people: "Rest here for a night and make some adjustments, and continue on the road tomorrow, and you can reach the capital around [-]:[-], what do you think?" How about it?" Seemingly seeking everyone's opinions, his eyes fell on Bai Shaoqin.

If the senior sister disagrees, they will continue on their way. If they drive overnight, they will be able to reach the capital at noon tomorrow.

Bai Shaoqin was a little hesitant. After chasing them all the way, there was no trace of Baijiu, and he didn't know if they had arrived in the capital. Now there is only one day's journey to the capital. As long as they meet Xu Shishu and the others in the city, they will know the news.

His eyes swept across the faces of several people, and everyone looked exhausted. After thinking about it, he said, "You guys rest here, I'll go to the capital first."

Upon hearing this, Nangong Jin quickly said, "I'm with you." She wanted to leave, so Jiang Ciyu would naturally not stay.

In the end, the six of them branched out in threes and threes. Bai Xijing took Bai Meng and Nie Wei to find an inn in Linchuan Town to stay, while Bai Shaoqin and the third lady Jiang Ciyu continued on their way.

When the lights came on, Bai Xijing stood in front of the window, looking in the direction of the capital, Bai Meng brought two bowls of clear porridge, saw Master staring at the deep night sky, put down the tray and walked to her side, "Master, are you worried about Master? "

"Still worried about liquor?"

Bai Meng didn't understand why the master would agree to separate from the uncle and stay here for a day.

Bai Xijing withdrew her gaze and turned her head to look at Bai Meng, "Bai Meng, how long have we been out?" After roughly doing the calculations, it has been three months since we left Wufeng Palace.

Bai Meng was slightly stunned, not understanding why Master suddenly asked this question, and replied, "It's been three months."

"It's been three months." Bai Xijing repeated in a low voice, without any concealment, she sighed softly in front of Bai Meng.

This time he left Jiubai Mountain for so long because Shangguan Qing took Xie Yan away, and after saving his junior sister, he was about to leave the capital and go back to Jiubai Mountain, but because of an accident in Yaoxian Valley, he rushed to Qingzhou City.

Now, because the liquor was taken away, he had to go to the capital again.

Accidents happen frequently, when can I go back to Jiubai Mountain?

Bai Meng saw the longing in Master's eyes, and asked, "Master, do you want to go back to Jiubai Mountain?" The answer was obvious, and Master nodded.

"Then we'll go back to Jiubai Mountain after we get back the baijiu. We won't go to the Emei School or to travel around the rivers and lakes." Bai Meng said, hugging Master from behind, leaning his head against Master's ear and temples affectionately, rubbing rub.

Bai Xijing raised her hand to close the window, turned around and hugged Bai Meng and the little apprentice, feeling uneasy again.

I always feel that something will happen when I return to the capital this time.

He stroked Bai Meng's back, wanted to tell her the uneasiness in his heart, thought about it, gave up again, pushed the little apprentice away and said, "I'm hungry, let's have porridge." Walking to the table and sitting down, the little apprentice who came over Considerately serve her porridge, put it in front of her, then sit down beside her, and bring out another bowl.

Half a bowl of porridge without any side dishes.

There was a hasty knock on the door, Bai Xijing and Bai Meng looked at each other, and Bai Meng asked, "Who?"

Nie Yan's voice sounded outside the door, "Senior White, it's me." Hearing the words "come in", he pushed the door open and entered, turned around and closed the door and bolted it, sat down opposite the two of them, and said, "Just now I was downstairs Lobby, heard something."

He lowered his voice, looking mysterious.

There are so many people talking, as long as you sit in a crowded place, you can hear all kinds of gossip. Nie Yan sat in the lobby for nearly a quarter of an hour with the excuse of having dinner.

In such a short period of time, I heard a lot of news that I don't know whether it is true or not.

The new male head of the Emei faction, in just one month in power, the Emei faction was jointly dismissed from the title of head by the disciples of the sect, and his right arm was cut off by a young female Taoist priest, and his martial arts were abolished. Finally, he was expelled from the school. After leaving the Emei School, his life and death are unknown now.

In addition to the Emei Sect, similar things happened in Qiankunmen. Overnight, the sect master was abolished, and the position of sect master was vacant. The elders temporarily managed the affairs of the sect until a new sect master was elected.

This is the news of the big sects in the Jianghu, and there are some small sects, so Nie Wei will not mention it, and directly talk about the heavy news she heard later, about the capital city and the longevity medicine that they deliberately spread in the Yaoxian Valley .

The only longevity medicine known to the world refined by Yaoxian Valley was sent to the palace, and now it is in the hands of the emperor. It was rumored that the emperor was critically ill, but now there is a medicine for longevity. Not old.

I just don't know if Emperor Dayan dared to take the longevity medicine. If he took it, the Dayan Dynasty would last forever.

After telling Bai Xijing and Bai Meng the gossip, Nie Wei expressed his thoughts, "I don't care about the previous news, I only care about the longevity medicine. Senior Bai, do you think the emperor has taken the longevity medicine?"

Everyone believed that the longevity medicine was already in the hands of the emperor.

Bai Meng looked at Bai Xijing when she heard the words. As an apprentice, she naturally knew what the master did. Seeing the master's indifferent expression, she probably wouldn't tell Nie that the elixir in the jade box had been replaced.

Sensing that Bai Meng was looking at her inquisitively, Bai Xijing glanced at her, and replied to Nie Yan, "As far as I know, the emperor will only eat food that has been tested and confirmed to be non-toxic before he eats it. There is only one longevity medicine in his hand, and it will be gone after someone tries it, so he would not dare to take it lightly."

When her senior sister was dying, she didn't dare to feed her senior elixir easily, but took one herself first.

"It makes sense." Nie Wei nodded, "The emperor is cautious, the elixir must still be there."

Others thought the same way, as long as the emperor didn't take the elixir, there was hope of taking the elixir.

Heroes from the rivers and lakes kept pouring into the capital, just waiting for the opportunity to enter the palace to steal medicine.

No one expected that the emperor had already opened the jade box and ate the so-called longevity medicine in the box.

However, I ate half of it.

On the night when Shangguanqing learned that Bai Xijing had taken away the real longevity medicine from the jade box, the emperor summoned her to Yishou Palace.

On the day he returned to the palace, the emperor, who had a normal complexion, was now lying on the dragon couch with a sickly and haggard face, his body was half covered by a bright yellow and thin silk blanket, and a wet towel soaked in hot water was placed on his forehead. heat.

"My son pays respects to Father Emperor." Shangguanqing stopped ten steps away from the bed, folded his hands Pingcuo to his chest, and bowed in salute.

Born in an emperor's family, unlike ordinary people, you can get close to your father if you want to.

Yanhuang slowly opened his eyes and looked at Shangguanqing, took the towel with his left hand and sat up, "Ningguo, I asked you to come to Yishou Palace late at night, do you have any idea in your heart why Father asked you to come?"

Shangguanqing raised his eyes, "I dare not guess." The man in front of me is not only her father, but also the emperor of Yan Kingdom. If he guesses the emperor's mind, even his daughter will be killed.

Emperor Yan waved all the maids in the palace to leave, took out a small sandalwood medicine box from under the pillow, opened it and said: "I have already taken out the longevity medicine in the jade box." She looked, "You took back this elixir and gave it to me, but it's a pity that there is only one."

"Ning Guo, you are my most beloved daughter. I have divided the longevity medicine into two, and I will give you the half."

The most beloved daughter?Give yourself the elixir of life?

Shangguanqing sneered in his heart, but he wanted to put on a joyful expression of being favored by the saint, and took the longevity medicine with both hands respectfully, thanking him.

Seeing his princess take the medicine box, Emperor Yan closed the lid and said with a smile, "Ningguo, take this half of the longevity medicine now."

It seemed like a casual suggestion, but it came from the emperor's mouth, it was an imperial decree. Shangguanqing knew the purpose of the emperor's father asking her to take the medicine, so he took her to test the medicine.

Open the box, take out half of the longevity medicine inside, and swallow it in front of Emperor Yan.

Yan Huang nodded in satisfaction, talked with Shangguan Qing about her childhood memories, and made sure that the medicine had melted in her mouth even if she hadn't swallowed it, so she let Shangguan Qing leave.
