After becoming the king of the subjugated country

In a five-entry house, all the maids serving around were removed.

The censer was changed from wooden to dazzling gold inlaid jade regulations. Taoist Xu first put incense on the statue of Sanqing in front of him, and then said: "Infinite Heavenly Venerable."

Ji Han also bowed, and then quickly said, "Xu Daochang, I tried your method, and I really felt extremely happy at the beginning, but later on, I was a little powerless. Is it because I didn't practice enough..."

It is rare for Ji Han to be a little embarrassed, and it is also a blow to him to admit that he is unable to follow up in the later stage.

However, he was doing it for the business of cultivating immortals, not lusting after women, so even though he was a little ashamed, he forced his mouth.

Daoist Xu stroked his beard, and he still had that fairy-like appearance, "Young master is telling the truth. The general public are mortals. Once you start cultivating immortality, it is normal that you cannot adapt and last."

Ji Han nodded suddenly, as if he had realized something.

Daoist Xu pushed a box over, looked at Ji Han's black eyes, and said, "This is my secret elixir, if used together with formulas, it will naturally make you last until dawn."

Ji Han opened the box and saw that there were about twenty pills inside, he was overjoyed, "Thank you, Daoist."

Daoist Xu also told Ji Han many precautions, such as paying attention not to kill any living beings recently, offering incense to Sanqing devoutly, and practicing more intercourse techniques, etc.

Ji Han was dizzy by the babbling, and convinced Daoist Xu a lot, he took out the banknotes he had prepared a long time ago, "These silver taels are my reward for thanking Daoist alchemy, Daoist take it, and it can also fill the purse."

Daoist Xu said sternly: "For us cultivators, money and wealth are foreign objects. As long as we can properly worship Sanqing, no matter how poor we are, we have nothing to fear. Now that you can step into the sect of cultivating Dao, it is also my merit. One piece, not to mention two pieces of silver.”

Daoist Xu said no, so Ji Han gave him even more fortresses, "Don't be polite, Daoist, we will ascend to God together in the future, these are things outside the body, and now Daoist should enjoy a little bit."

Daoist Xu glanced at the clear 1 taels on the bank note from the corner of his eye, and his hands trembled immediately, but he barely maintained his immortal demeanor, and said politely to Ji Han, "In this case, I will accept these taels. In the future, it will be used to repair the Taoist temple, and to build a golden body for the Patriarch of the Sanqing. Don't worry, my son, I will definitely explain to the Patriarch of the Sanqing in my dream that this is the silver you donated."

Ji Han nodded in satisfaction, and sent a bunch of thank you gifts, "Then I would like to thank Daoist Priest."

After confirming that Ji Han had left, Daoist Xu slowly returned to his room, then closed the doors and windows, his eyes lit up, and carefully counted the taels of silver.

"One, two..." Daoist Xu gasped, "There is actually 10 taels. Where is this rich and noble son? I am afraid that such a good family business cannot withstand such a defeat."

Having said that, Daoist Xu also shook his head.

What does it matter to him?If Ji Han hadn't been so easy to deceive, he wouldn't have gotten so much silver.

Looking greedily at the bank note in his hand, Daoist Xu had just put it close to his body when he heard a hasty knock on the door from outside.

"Master Dao, Master Dao, I am a former Ji family girl, please come out and meet me." The female voice outside was visibly anxious.

Daoist Xu's expression changed, he smoothed out the wrinkles on his clothes, trimmed his beard, and then took the dust whisk, and then opened the door, "Wuliang Tianzun, what's the girl's business?"

Ji Shao looked at him worriedly, "Master Taoist, I sneaked out from home. My uncle said that the Taoist priests outside were all wild Taoist priests, and asked me where the 5000 taels of silver went, saying that he would send those wild Taoist priests away. Take him to the officer."

5000 taels, which happened to be Ji Shao's intermittent offerings to Taoist temples before, Taoist Xu also saw her innocent and rich, otherwise he would not easily follow her.

The hand holding his beard paused slightly, Daoist Xu maintained his immortal demeanor, "This is a misunderstanding of me by outsiders. The poor Taoist has devoted himself to cultivating Taoism for more than forty years. He is an orthodox disciple of Sanqing and has never done anything harmful to the world. things, let alone deceiving the people.”

Ji Shao lowered his head guiltily, "Master Dao, I'm the one who's sorry for you. My aunt kept asking me, so I had no choice but to say your name. Now my aunt has called several guards to search for people in another private house of mine. I went, and said that if I caught a wild Taoist priest, I would beat him up first before sending him to prison, Taoist priest, you should leave quickly. After my brother and I have slowly persuaded my uncle and aunt, I will go to the Taoist temple to pick you up again."

Daoist Xu felt a little relieved, "Don't worry, girl, what is not practice? It is the proper duty of the poor to be able to explain the confusion for the girl. When the elders of the girl let go of their prejudices, we will naturally meet again."

Daoist Xu sent Ji Shao away with a few words, then his face turned cold, and he ran to the house to pack up his gold and silver. After finishing a package, he quickly called a carriage outside and drove away.

Daoist Xu is actually not confident in his heart. These older people are not as easy to deceive as young princes and girls. If they are a little careless, they may put their own lives in it.

He urged the coachman to go faster, as long as he leaves the capital and remains anonymous, these taels of silver are enough for him.

"Has he left?" Ji Shao returned to his usual cold arrogance.

"Back to the princess, the Taoist has already left," the maid beside him asked puzzledly, "Why doesn't the princess keep him for a few days?"

Ji Shao smiled: "If you stay any longer, seeing the crown prince leaving the palace again and again, the ministers in the court will feel that something is wrong, and it is naturally just right now."

After clearing up his mood, Ji Shao said: "Go and smash and burn all the things used by the Taoist priests. Don't leave any traces. Then come someone to serve me and change my clothes. I'm going to have lunch with my brother."

In the next house, there are also a bunch of people discussing matters.

"The Taoist escaped?" Bai Qi asked.

"Yes," the guard next to him said in a low voice, "I left the city gate from the southwest, and I still have time to catch up."

"The princess is still soft-hearted," Bai Qi said indifferently: "Send a few people to chase after him, kill the Taoist priest, and pretend to be a robber to rob property."

As long as this Taoist is alive, it is evidence, and hidden dangers may appear at any time in the future.

Only when he is dead and can no longer speak can it prove that Ji Shao has nothing to do with these things.

The guards next to him immediately obeyed the order, and the few people on the edge quickly retreated.

"Go and tell Jinque to give Chuntao a few more sachets. The palace has limited manpower, so naturally we have to make good use of each one," Bai Qi said, "Let someone tell Qin Sheng to make preparations. "

Three days later.

Ji Han wiped his face with a towel, yawned, feeling extremely sleepy, "Go and get me my medicine."

Wearing plain silver clothes, the crown princess said slowly: "Your Highness, the medicine has never been tested by the imperial physician, you should take less."

Chuntao waited attentively for Ji Han to dress and wash. After being transferred from the Leng Palace to the East Palace, she did not live the life she wanted, but in order to be favored, she had to seize every opportunity to curry favor with the prince.

Chuntao immediately pinched her throat and said, "Princess Concubine, the Crown Prince has already said that he will bring the medicine, why does the Empress refuse to obey orders? Besides, the Crown Prince is so wise and powerful, is there anyone who dares to deceive the Prince?"

The gentle smile on the princess's face gradually disappeared, and the hands hidden in the sleeves gradually clenched.

Ji Han turned his head with a cold face, unwilling to take another look at the princess, "If you don't want to take it for me, then let it go, don't delay other court ladies serving me."

Chuntao smiled triumphantly, and twisted her waist to get the box for Ji Han, "Since the princess is born noble, she doesn't want to let go of her figure, so it's better to let the slave come to please the prince, so that the prince can be happy."

The princess cast a cold glance at Chuntao.

Chuntao immediately shrank her shoulders and hid in Ji Han's arms, "Your Highness, I'm so scared, you see the princess is staring at me like this. Now that His Highness is still here, she bullies the slave, and waits for the prince to deal with the government later. I'm afraid it will be even more miserable."

Ji Han patted Chuntao's hand, and a scent of flowers wafted into his breath, immediately lifted his spirits, "Okay, don't worry, I won't let the Crown Princess bully you."

Ji Han always felt that this court lady was particularly satisfying to him, especially the faint fragrance around him, which fascinated him.

It's unbearable!

A court lady who can't even be considered a concubine is worthy of her bullying?

The crown princess was so angry that her chest kept rising and falling, she turned around and left, not wanting to stay in this room anymore.

"Remember to find ten more maids for me," Ji Han's voice came from afar.

The princess slammed down the curtain and went out.

She stared at the direction of the palace gate, until the nurse next to her woke her up, "Crown Princess, I have already selected ten clean maids."

The princess sneered, "The rooms in the backyard of the East Palace are almost full, right?"

Mammy bowed her head, not daring to say more.

The Crown Princess angrily said: "Prince, he doesn't like this palace, that's all right. Fan Liangdi, Lady Zhang, He Fengyi is also a descendant of a famous family. She is talented and looks not bad. The Crown Prince doesn't like it either. I want different people every time, and I don’t take a look at them after I’m lucky. I can’t sleep well every day, and I comfort the maids for him every day, give them rewards, and put them in the prince’s backyard. Now there are 160 four of these palace ladies. The prince actually asked Ben Gong to find ten more for him!"

The nanny looked around and saw that there was no one else around, she panicked and said, "Your Majesty, you will still rely on the Crown Prince in the future, so you must not be dissatisfied with the Crown Prince."

The princess watched the sky gradually darken, and let out a long breath of sullenness in her chest, "Forget it, send those maids there, but you should remember, the maids who are sent over try to pick those who love to climb high, and if you want to leave the palace, do it well." Those who are married should not be selected, and they must not be delayed."

Mammy was full of emotion, "Your Majesty is merciful."

The Crown Princess twitched the corners of her mouth with difficulty, but she didn't say anything after all, she just looked at the sky from afar.

Soon, there were cries of love and laughter from men and women in the front yard.

The nanny was a little annoyed, "These court ladies are really irresistible, and they actually led the prince to make such a mess."

She had clearly warned her to be extra careful, and it turned out that these people acted so boldly.

This is still the period of filial piety, and the voice is not low. If others listen to it, it will not completely ruin the prince's reputation.

The princess laughed mockingly, "Who doesn't know the ministers of the court now? Only the prince thinks that he has hidden this matter tightly. When I was crying yesterday, several wives were advising me, let me persuade the prince for a while. Don't get close to beauty."

Speaking of this, the princess also burst into tears, "Mama, I am suffering too. The prince in the palace treats me indifferently, and hardly comes to my house. People outside the palace don't know my suffering. Just looking at my noble status and asking me to support my younger brother, the wives think that I am not virtuous enough to advise the prince in a timely manner, nor can I control the concubines, I am really unbearable to be a concubine."

Mammy looked at the crown princess with distress, this is also her master who has served for more than [-] years, she has witnessed the growth of the crown princess, and also witnessed how much ups and downs the crown princess has suffered along the way from the boudoir to the court.

Mammy just wanted to comfort her, but she heard a scream coming from the front yard, "Prince, Prince—"

The ear-piercing voice quickly reached the Crown Princess' ears.

The princess raised her head suddenly, she wiped away her tears, "Come on, let's go and have a look."

Momo hurriedly called the maids who fell far behind, and she personally supported the princess and walked towards the front yard.

The front yard was just chaos.

When the princess arrived, she saw that the guards wanted to step forward but dared not, and the door was closed tightly.

"Open the door." The princess flicked her sleeves, "What time is it, and you still care about these things."

The guards got the exact order, and immediately ran over to open the door, and there was another scream of panic behind the door.

The princess looked inside, her face was ashen.

The clothes of the ten court ladies were revealing, and Ji Han fell to the ground, unconscious.

"Seal the courtyard! No one in the main courtyard is allowed to run outside," the princess said angrily, "Tell them to put on their clothes, and take care of all these maids. Hurry up and take my sign and invite the imperial physician. "

What's the matter!

Imperial Physician He, who was on duty at the Imperial Hospital, couldn't help wiping away his sweat, and felt slanderous in his heart, what's the matter!

He was quite unlucky, it happened that he was on duty today, and he was called by the nuns in the Eastern Palace to check the prince's pulse within less than an hour after sitting down in the imperial hospital.

Imperial physician He wanted to leave after taking the pulse. Can a young imperial physician like him participate in this matter!

The Crown Princess held the handkerchief, her fingers tightened unconsciously, "Doctor, how is the Crown Prince?"

Imperial Physician He cupped his hands and said, "I'm not good at learning art, your majesty might as well invite the court to come here."

The princess's heart suddenly turned cold.

The concubine sent someone to take her sign to invite the director of the imperial hospital, and asked: "Before the hospital comes, doctor He might as well give injections or prescribe medicine to relieve the prince's symptoms first."

Immediately, Imperial Physician He knelt down, "Ma'am, this, this, I really dare not give an injection..."

If the crown prince dies tonight, is it his fault for giving acupuncture!

Rather than doing anything, Imperial Physician He would not take this risk.

The Crown Princess understood the hint, and her face gradually turned pale.

The princess looked at the nanny, "Someone is pregnant—"

She couldn't go on.

Now is the filial piety period.Every time the maids served the prince, they would ask someone to bring over a bowl of Bizi soup, and watched the maids drink it all without leaving a drop.

And the entire Eastern Palace, including the Crown Princess and all the concubines, has no children.

The princess flicked her sleeves and smashed a cup.

The guards outside and the maids around immediately knelt down and looked at the princess in panic.

The princess sat for a long time, and finally said shyly: "Open the palace door, go and ask someone to invite Prime Minister Qin, Cheng Engong, the six ministers, and all the ministers who were in Qianqing Palace when the first emperor was in Tuogu, and let them discuss matters together. .”

An hour later, the Crown Princess waited for many ministers.

Prime Minister Qin secretly pressed his waist. He is getting old, and he is still tossing about when he is ugly. He really can't bear it.

A dozen or so imperial doctors took turns to take the pulse, and the imperial hospital justified not to let the first one go, and then backed away with a dark face, signaling for the next one to come.

After a group of people took their pulse, they all remained silent.

Cheng Engong became impatient, and spoke first, "I don't know if the Crown Princess summoned us late at night, what's the matter?"

Song Xiao poked his head around, scrutinized the faces of the maids without any scruples, and was still thinking about asking his cousin out to play in the palace tomorrow.

The crown prince twitched her lips with difficulty, and said to the crowd: "I really had to do this tonight. The prince fainted suddenly. Now I have invited an imperial physician to diagnose the pulse. I hope you all can bear witness together."

Prime Minister Qin suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart. Could it be that something happened to the crown prince that could force the crown princess to such an extent?

Jiang Zilin, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, had the most urgent personality. He immediately asked, "Where's the imperial doctor in the imperial hospital? Why don't you speak?"

Taiyuan Hospital shut up with a cold face, and even closed his eyes when he heard this sentence.

None of the imperial physicians spoke, and every time Jiang Zilin looked at a person, that person took a step back.

Only the last female doctor did not retreat, she said with a cold face: "Insufficient kidney water suddenly fainted, the prince should have had too much sex these days, which directly caused kidney deficiency. This led to a coma. Now that the lungs are filled with blood, the prince will naturally not be able to wake up."

The Tai Hospital was looking at this female doctor with admiration, her diagnosis and treatment were accurate, and she said things that no one dared to say.

Just to be angered.

Sure enough, Cheng Engong looked over angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about?!"

The female doctor continued: "There's no need to give needles. Let's prepare for the funeral now. The crown prince will die within two days at most."

"Come on, come on, take her down!" Cheng Engong yelled: "The crown prince's reputation is so ruined, are you just watching?"

The guards at the side took the female doctor away.

Cheng Engong looked expectantly at the courtyard of the Taiyuan Hospital, who nodded with difficulty, agreeing with the female doctor's pulse diagnosis results.

Cheng Engong immediately overturned the table, looked at the Crown Princess, and was furious, "How does the Crown Princess serve the Crown Prince, how can the Crown Prince make such troubles!"

The Crown Princess sneered, "I should ask Cheng Engong, why did Cheng Engong send his granddaughter to the East Palace three days ago? Isn't it because he wants to cling to the Crown Prince!"

Prime Minister Qin interrupted Cheng Engong, "Okay!"

Prime Minister Qin took a look at the sky, sighed deeply, and felt that he had grown older by more than ten years in the past two months, "It's the end of the Yin hour. After dawn, all the officials came to cry, and the prince must appear. The prince is still in a coma. I have to come up with a plan."

Moreover, they have to think about how to explain such a scandal to the world.

Qin Sheng took a deep breath, his heart was pounding, even though he had preset such a scene several times, he still felt very pleasantly surprised when it arrived.

Qin Sheng took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "In my opinion, the crown prince has no heirs, and besides the crown prince, His Majesty only has Prince Duan left. According to the law, Prince Duan should be invited to the palace to preside over the overall situation."

Cheng Engong wanted to object, but he opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.

Who else could there be besides Duan Wang?

Before the old emperor came to power, he killed all his brothers and sisters, and drove the remaining remote clans to the vicinity of Xiaoling. In Kyoto, only the royal family lived in the palace. Now the old emperor died and the prince fell. Except for King Duan, there is only one left. A big princess.

The rest of the courtiers looked at each other and said one after another: "According to the law, it should be so."

The corners of Qin Sheng's mouth curled up wildly, and then he pressed it down desperately.

After he said such a sentence, he shut up and didn't intend to show off again.

Everyone has already started to discuss the next etiquette, Cheng Engong took a step back, grabbed Song Xiao's hand vigorously, and said in a low voice: "You go to Duanwang's mansion now, and say that the Song family is willing to serve King Duan as the master." , to welcome Prince Duan into the palace."

The prince's grandson is dying, and Cheng Engong has to start looking for new people to rely on.

Song Xiao nodded fiercely, and sneaked out of the East Palace when no one was prepared.

Qin Sheng, who had nothing to do, naturally noticed this scene, showed a disdainful smile, and quickly covered it up.

Heh, old fox, want to stand in line to protect yourself first?

That king is not easy to mess with.

Ji Chen was woken up when he was still asleep. Holding a teacup, he listened to Song Xiao tell the whole story.

Hearing that the crown prince fainted, Ji Chen's drowsiness disappeared immediately.

right?The prince fell five months earlier than in the novel.

This is someone plotting the country.

Ji Chen took a look at Song Xiao, and decided to go with the flow, "The people who followed you are all your confidantes, right? Did anyone notice you when you came?"

Song Xiao said loudly: "Of course not. Don't worry, Prince Duan. Those ministers are still discussing now. Naturally, some people are dissatisfied with you. My Song family is willing to be your chariot and horse to drive and impeach those ministers for you."

Ji Chen showed a gentle smile and got up, "That's really great."

Song Xiao suddenly showed a happy smile.

Now that the crown prince has fallen, if the Song family wants to continue to live a good life, they have to curry favor with King Duan.

"Left and right, come here!" Ji Chen's face suddenly turned cold, "Kill these people!"

After Ji Chen became King Duan, the number of people who came to seek refuge gradually increased. Many poor people were willing to come to serve as slaves, and many young and middle-aged men were willing to be paid as bodyguards. Eunuch Xin screened a few times, and gradually organized many Few people, dedicated to guarding Ji Chen's safety.

Song Xiao looked at Ji Chen with a face full of disbelief, unable to believe what he heard.

Ji Chen doesn't care what others think.

He had heard Bai Qi's report a long time ago, and at the beginning Song Xiao followed Prince Ji Han out of the palace several times.

What's more, the Song family couldn't stay.

Since it is to be done, it must be done absolutely.

The guards on the side immediately surrounded Ji Chen and retreated, then stepped forward and surrounded Song Xiao and the people he brought.

Song Xiao also retreated into the crowd, terrified, "Prince Duan, just because I have something to do to you, you can torture me, how can you kill me so easily?"

The guard who rushed to the front had impatiently chopped off the head of one of Song Xiao's confidantes.

A smear of blood splashed onto Song Xiao's face, and Song Xiao immediately yelled, "Ji Chen, I am Song Xiao, I am the Song family! Our family has a queen and a prince! If it wasn't for the prince's accident, how could it be your turn to ascend the throne?" I'm still the husband-in-law of the eldest princess! If you kill me, you offend the Song family, so how can you appease the people of the world! What qualifications do you have to rule the world!"

Ji Chen said: "No matter what reason I rule the world, you won't be able to see it anymore."

The battle ended quickly.

Ji Chen was a little uncomfortable with the bloody smell, but he still saw the whole situation.

After all, this is just the beginning.

After calling for people to bury these people, and then deal with the blood stains, Ji Chen began to reward everyone, and asked the person at the front, "You are quite courageous, what's your name?"

"My name is Tang Qian, and I am willing to serve King Duan," the young man looked at Ji Chen with longing.

Whether it was Ji Chen's fierceness at that moment, or his previous gentleness, Tang Qian admired him all the time.

Ji Chen nodded, and said seriously: "Okay, I'll make a note."

Such a person can just be reused.

Outside the door, officials have already knocked on the door.

Eunuch Xin happily came over to report, "My lord, Prime Minister Qin led the people to invite Prince Duan to enter the palace to preside over the overall situation."

The author has something to say:

small theater:

Ji Chen only read the first twenty chapters before time travelling.

But in Chapter 21, which he didn’t see, Nan Wang, one of the eight protagonists, was full of emotion, “When I was young, I offended the noble gentry, and I didn’t want to sell myself as a servant. Tang Qian, I didn't change my real name until I became famous now."

Cough, Ji Chen actually never knows how many protagonists (dog heads) are involved with him
