Chapter 218: Aftertaste

In the empty black hall, Yuan Wu's hand hung down.

His hands seemed to be unable to bear the weight of a thin page of parchment, and his neck seemed to be unable to bear the weight of his skull.

His head hung lower.

He came across as mediocre many years ago, but he was better than the vast majority of people in the world in every way.

Bai Qi disobeyed the holy order and led the army into the Qi realm, which was naturally a rebellion, and took away almost more than one-third of the army of the Great Qin Dynasty.

The support needed for the march of hundreds of thousands of elite troops is not just Bai Qi's personal thoughts, who can meet the large amount of supplies?

It took him a short time to figure out who could provide enough support to Bai Qi.

Therefore, he understood better that after Bai Qi overthrew the Qi Dynasty, those troops loyal to the Great Qin Dynasty would not come back to serve him.

He also understood that Ding Ning forced Xu Fu away, not only to force away the vital forces from his side, but more importantly, to tell him that from Changling to all parts of the Great Qin Dynasty, all the news transmission, military orders and secret reports, were no longer safe.

He was losing control of the army of the Great Qin Dynasty, and indeed the entire court.

It's like a hundred-legged worm, slowly cutting off its long legs.

Slow deprivation and torture are cruel.

But Yuan Wu didn't think it was very unfair, because he and Zheng Sleeve also forced Wang Jingmeng like this back then.

Heavy footsteps were heard outside the hall.

With the familiar sound of footsteps, a strong smell of medicine stimulated his nose to tingle a little.

It's time to take medicine again.

He took a deep breath and looked up.

Zhao Gao, who was holding the medicine bowl in both hands, walked in front of him, and then he took the pure gold medicine bowl and slowly sipped it in small sips like drinking.

The juices were astringent and bitter, but when they entered his abdomen, a cloud of vitality burned out of his abdomen like a fire and poured into all parts of his body.

Some of the dead and decaying parts of his body began to revive under the impact of the medicinal energy.

Zhao Gao's medicine is very effective.

In the veins of his body, the remnants of the star vitality of Zheng Sleeve had even been worn out a lot under the strong medicinal power.

"About two months?"

He looked at Zhao Gao, who was standing bent, and asked.

Since the heavy blow of the battle with Zheng Sleeve, he has not left this dormitory for a single step, whether it is his mood or attitude towards people, he has invisibly become completely different from before. But for Zhao Gao, his eyes were full of true gentleness.

"It takes at least 100 days, and before that, you can't violently drum up your internal qi, otherwise I'm afraid that all your efforts will be wasted. Zhao Gao said respectfully.

Yuan Wu snorted lightly.

Zhao Gao didn't look up at his expression, so he didn't know what Yuan Wu's voice meant.

The medicine bowl was handed back to Zhao Gao, there was about a tenth or twelve left in it, and as usual, Zhao Gao silently drank the remaining medicinal juice in one gulp.

The strong medicinal power suddenly caused the qi and blood in Zhao Gao's body to circulate wildly, making his face instantly turn red, making him can't help but cough in a low voice in pain.

According to the previous rules, he was to retire and leave.

"I heard that you had a conflict with the Secretary of Internal Affairs Liang in the palace today?"

Zhao Gao didn't say much, just nodded yes.

Yuan Wu didn't say much, and replied lightly, "I have ordered him to be beheaded." ”

Zhao Gao paused slightly, as if he was a little hesitant, but still said, "I am naturally close to Hu Hai because of the treatment of Prince Hu Hai into the palace, but Prince Fusu may be a little dissatisfied with me these days." ”

Yuan Wu frowned slightly, his expression was still a little faint, but there were some inexplicable flames gushing out of his eyes, "You only care about you, how can it be his turn." ”

"Thank you. ”

Zhao Gao thanked him and withdrew.

When he left the palace at the foot of Lishan in the carriage, until he was outside the palace gate, he couldn't help but shake his head in the carriage, and a slight mocking look appeared on his face.

No matter how strong a person is, there are still weaknesses.

This is the case with Yuanwu now.

In a sense, he was already the most trusted person in Yuanwu at this time.

In other words, after throwing huge benefits and summoning Bai Qi, even after Xu Fu had already left him, Yuan Wu needed someone in his heart that he felt he could trust.

In this world, even the loneliest husband is still afraid of loneliness.

There are some things that you can not cherish and not care about, but you must have them.

In the palace today, in fact, there was only a small conflict between the high-ranking official of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Zhao Gao, but when Yuanwu's will was issued, when the high-ranking official was killed, Zhao Gao's power would invisibly reach a new height.

In fact, when even the channels for transmitting military information became unsafe, Yuan Wu, whose temperament had changed drastically, was even more unable to trust any cultivator.

He felt that an ordinary person who was not a cultivator would be more trustworthy.

"In the future, there will be no one in the Changling Palace above you. ”

The coachman's voice came into the carriage, and it was Shen Xuan's voice.

Shen Xuan was the driver of this carriage at this time.

"But some people are always unwilling, so they will use the most direct means, directly try to kill you, because you are not a cultivator, so it is easy to kill. If you start in advance, I've already arranged it for you. ”

Shen Xuan slowly continued, "But it is impossible to take precautions in advance, so when the palace discusses the government tomorrow, you must do something to make those people dare not move again." ”

Zhao Gao nodded.

He found these things simple.

When a person has supreme power, many things that seem difficult to reach the sky in the eyes of ordinary people become too simple.

......

Yuan Wu waited in his dormitory for the restoration of cultivation.

However, he didn't expect that in the eyes of many people, the world did not have much time left for him.

He didn't expect that many people he was familiar with were already very close to him.

Lishan Mountain, on the hillside facing this imperial palace.

The weeds on the hillside where the sheep had been spared had grown wildly again.

The sheep don't know where they are, but the simple shanty where she and Dugu Bai lived is still there.

Bonfires were lit again in front of the ruined shantytowns.

The firewood that was randomly removed from the roof of the shanty was randomly piled into a fire, and a copper pot was hung on it, in which wild vegetable soup was boiled.

The person who made the fire to make soup was Zhao Si, and beside her, Ding Ning and her eldest grandson Qianxue were standing.

After a while, there was a laugh like a silver bell.

Bai Shanshui and Zhao Yunrui arrived.

Ye Ce Leng's figure also appeared quickly, followed by several people from the Minshan Sword Sect, including Baili Suxue, who had been seriously injured and had not recovered.

"How long does Yuanwu have left?"

Bai Shanshui looked at what was probably the most gorgeous and magnificent palace group in history, and asked.

"At most, it's not more than a month. Qing Yao replied simply.

"Did you see anything?" Bai Shanshui turned his head to ask Ding Ning, and couldn't help but shake his head, "Even you can't see what kind of mysterious arrangement this palace is, what's the use of us coming, what flowers can we see." ”

(The Sword Dynasty has reached the end before the ending, everyone help me think about what else I missed to fill the hole)
