Chapter 21
Is this bowing down? "
"For the time being, it seems so. The forces behind this princess must be thoroughly investigated. Jirui, you go down and handle this matter. I can do it by myself." Zhou Xu pushed the wheelchair and entered the door.
Ji Rui knew that the matter was serious, so he didn't dare to delay for a moment, so he got up and left.
Zhou Xu entered the inner room, and there were servants undressing and taking a bath, he waved them away.
I deliberately lit the candles brighter, and lay down on the couch to sleep.
"He Luo, can I guess what you asked earlier?"
【tell me the story. ] The first page of the Heavenly Book has changed, and the original dragon talisman has moved unknowingly.
"I guess your recent changes are related to the time-traveling people. Not only can you tell what kind of occupation the time-traveling people are, but where do you come from? You can also restore your skills through these time-traveling people? Is it right?"
Zhou Xu asked again and again.
[It's not bad. 】The first page of the book suddenly changed drastically, and the dragon symbols that were arranged in a regular manner changed instantly.
Some are like flying into the sky and escaping from the ground, while others are like swimming in the vast lakes and rivers.Various types of postures, and so on.
Zhou Xu was instantly dazzled.
He felt that he was being absorbed by an unknown force, forcing him to sink continuously, sinking into whirlpools.
The vortex is not like a flood, not like a river.It seems to be an S-shape, with an impenetrable circle surrounding it, controlling its flow direction and preventing its impact.
Zhou Xu suddenly came out of his body, and his whole body was as light as a feather.Then he floated out of the window and wandered in the vast starry sky. He floated and floated, hanging himself on the moon, leaning against the stars, and slanted down on the grass, with willow branches hanging on his waist.
His soul returned to the Nine Heavens, and suddenly he came back to his body again.He seemed to be able to identify his own body, probing every part.When he was addicted to this, the dizziness began to become stronger.
His soul fluctuated and floated along with the moving dragon talismans, formless and formless.
Then it continues to spin in an endless s-shaped vortex.
Can't stop, always, always.
Not hungry, not tired.
"Master, wake up."
Physician, hurry up and give the master a diagnosis.
Ji Rui was sweating profusely, he had only been out of the mansion for two days, and when he came back, he saw his master unconscious.
There was no time to blame the servant, and he didn't bother to listen to the servant's explanation: "King Xu Xian said that he would close the door for two days and two nights, so that no servants would disturb him."
Jirui put his cold hands on Zhou Xu's forehead, and the imperial physician was pricking the acupuncture points with golden needles.
Zhou Xu felt that he was dazed and startled by something cold, and he struggled vigorously.
Finally, Zhou Xu lifted his heavy eyelids.
"Master, you're finally awake." Ji Rui no longer had the sneering look in front of others.
"I'm awake, I'm a little thirsty, go to the kitchen and help me make that iced lotus seed soup."
Zhou Xu dismissed Jirui, knowing that it must be the work of Tianshu, so he pretended to know.
He called the imperial physician: "You look ugly, but there is something wrong with me, but it doesn't matter."
The imperial physician knelt down in front of Zhou Xu with a plop.
"King Xuxian, your body is very disturbed. I can't treat you alone. You have to post a notice and convene national experts and famous doctors from all over the country to come together and come up with a countermeasure."
"Please come, doctor, is there no cure for my disease?" Zhou Xu asked calmly without changing his expression.
The imperial doctor stood up in panic and bowed back, "According to my minister, this disease is a hidden disease in childhood, a sickness brought out of the womb. In this kind of situation, ordinary people usually don't live to be seven or eight years old. King Xu Xian has always had Only when the imperial doctor heals the disease and the hot spring nourishes it can he survive the age of 20, and now this disease cannot be cured by the traditional medicine."
Zhou Xu understood in his heart that this meant that the pathogens in his body had already produced antibodies, so they no longer worked.Over the past 20 years, Brother Taishanghuang has never stopped looking for famous doctors, but they are all powerless.Now that it's urgent, where can I find it?
"There is no need for imperial physicians to panic, fate is determined by God. Judging from the current situation, how much time do I have?" Zhou Xu asked.
"About a year and a half. If the body can resist it, he can endure it for a few more days." If it wasn't because he hadn't eaten for two days this time, he wouldn't know that King Xu Xian's body was already withered to this extent.
"Please keep the imperial physician secret, I don't want to hear about this from other people." Zhou Xu said.
"King Xu Xian, this is very wrong! After the illness, you will turn pale, vomit blood, and be accompanied by dizziness and many other conditions. You can't hide it." The imperial doctor knelt on the ground and prayed.
"I have made up my mind. Today I will ask the emperor to reward me with you. After I die, this king will arrange for your family. Hurry up and study how to prevent others from finding out."
"King Xuxian, you can't give up, the Eastern Zhou Kingdom cannot live without you."
"Go down." Zhou Xu waved his hand.
The imperial physician had no choice but to follow orders.
Ji Rui carried a bowl of soup across the threshold, "Master, come and drink the soup."
After Zhou Xu finished drinking, he asked, "How is your investigation, what about the princess, and what about the prince?"
Halberd Rui said ten to five.
The Kingdom of Yelang was ambitious, and secretly used insidious tricks to use this concubine as a bait. After being assassinated in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the evidence of the crime was pushed to the Eastern Zhou Kingdom, and this was used as an excuse to raise troops.
The Yelang Kingdom has been preparing for this battle for four years. Their soldiers are recruited under harsh conditions. They must be strong men or capable people to enter the barracks. Every family that has entered the army is exempt from taxes for generations, and all of them are paid high salaries.Those who die in the line of duty or make military exploits will be rewarded solely by the state.
"Why didn't our country's spies and spies in Yelang Kingdom report these things before?" Zhou Xu wondered.
"Yelang's national style is tough, and it is not uncommon to actively enter the military camp. This matter was strongly advocated by the current prince, and he acted in a low-key manner, so our spies in Yelang Kingdom did not pay special attention."
"Ji Rui, hurry up and prepare the carriage, follow me into the palace."
"Okay." Ji Rui turned around and was about to leave.A thunderstorm fell.The crackling and bean-sized rain came as soon as it was said.
"Ji Rui, go get ready, enter the palace right away, don't miss a moment."
"Yes."
When Jirui's figure was out of sight, Zhou Xu let out a slight breath.
"He Luo, I just want to ask you one thing. Will I go to another body when this body dies?"
【That's right, when I have enough ability, I can find a new body for you. 】
[In the meantime, you must complete the mission of this body. You still have one and a half years to perfect your identity to the extreme. If you fail to pass, there is nothing I can do. Awaken our chance man once. 】
"Then why am I in a coma for two days? What is that vortex then?" Zhou Xu asked.
[The first page of the first volume of the Book of Heaven, the Taoist Zen machine, when you complete the task is the time when you really understand it, and you will understand a lot at that time.I'm going to sleep for a few days, don't bother. 】
Zhou Xu pondered for a long time on the carriage. He had only one way to go right now. Looking at the heavy rain outside like a curtain, this summer's torrential rain has just begun.
After entering the palace, the little emperor was concentrating on correcting the memorial.
"Uncle little emperor, why are you here in the rain, serve ginger soup quickly." The little emperor hurried down the jade steps.
"I have something urgent to talk about, so I can't delay it." Zhou Xu said hastily after drinking the ginger soup in one gulp.
"I got a secret report that Yelang Kingdom's wolf ambition deliberately let our country be negligent, set up traps, and the princess as bait, killed two birds with one stone, not only deposed Zhou Che, cleared a powerful enemy, but also wanted to impose crimes on us. What a hand Good strategy! Coupled with the continuous heavy rain this summer, if the Yellow River is safe and sound, the people are happy, and it will be easy to expropriate. If the Yellow River floods, there will really be a war at that time, and I don’t know how to fight it .”
The little emperor was startled, "What, the barbarian land of Yelang Kingdom dares to invade our country."
At this time, Little Lizi hurried over from outside the hall, "Your Majesty, the Hedong Mansion has an urgent report."
"Read." The little emperor said.
"Heavy rain continued overnight, the flood of the Yellow River broke through, and the embankment was washed away, and the people in the three counties and counties in Hedong Prefecture were displaced..."
"This Yellow River water... ah, how does the Hedong Mansion handle things..." The little emperor's eyes were burning with anxiety.
"Don't worry, take your time, there is no rush." Zhou Xu comforted.
"This incident has already happened, and now is not the time to blame the Hedong Mansion. First, appease the residents of the Yellow River. This Princess Heqin must let her enter the capital. Leave this matter to me. You are now doing your best to do the work of the Yellow River."
"Uncle little emperor, my nephew is ashamed." The little emperor looked ashamed. He was proud of being selected for the imperial examination before, but now God has slapped him a lot.
"I'll go back to the mansion first, and you handle this important matter quickly."
The little emperor asked Xiao Lizi to send Zhou Xu out of the palace, and then notified all the officials to hold a court meeting.
On the carriage back home, Ji Rui looked at Zhou Xu with some distress.
"Master, you don't need to be in such a hurry. Look, your clothes are all soaked and you're going to be sick again." Jirui complained, in his heart he strongly disapproved of the master stopping the matter of marrying the princess. Worry, his master should take good care of himself.Especially after just being in a coma for two days.
"Master, tell me, why did the imperial doctor diagnose you in a coma for two days?" He went to ask the imperial doctor privately, but the imperial doctor's eyes flickered but he said there was nothing serious.
"It's all a fuss, it's just reading too much, and it's worth your fuss. Now that the country is in crisis, my body is a trivial matter.
