How I Became the Emperor - Chapter 738
[738. Chapter 738: Never change your original intention]
. “Please come in, Leader Xiao,”
Lu Qian said casually in the imperial study room.
Before that, he might have gone to welcome Xiao Ran in person, but during the battle last night, only Lin Wanrong, the ancestor of the Ming family, and Shan Yujing from the Zhengyi Alliance showed up. Xiao Ran, the leader of the alliance, didn’t even have a shadow. He was obviously on the shore. Watch the fire.
This makes people very uncomfortable.
“Yes!”
The old man Ba Ji nodded solemnly, immediately understood what Lu Gan meant, turned around and left.
Soon, he led the two people into the imperial study room.
The leader, a middle-aged man, dressed in a snow-white gown, with a face like white jade, a smile like a spring breeze, and a scholarly elegance all over his body, is none other than Xiao Ran, the leader of the Zhengyi Alliance.
The other person is a thin old man, wearing a cloud-white Taoist robe. He is energetic and has the appearance of an immortal. As soon as he comes in, there is a faint scent of medicine and a refreshing Taoist breeze.
This man is the famous Dan Lao of the Zhengyi Alliance.
What is this old guy doing here?
Lu Qian was surprised, with a smile on his face, and stood up to greet him: “The leader of the alliance is here, I am not far enough to greet you, please forgive me! Come and watch the tea!”
“Your Majesty, you are welcome!”
Xiao Ran looked guilty, Fortunately: “I’m really sorry. Last night, I was dealing with matters outside the territory and was unable to come back in time to help. The Nine-Headed Yuansheng and Wu Jiuxie were rampant in Daqian and hurt people. Fortunately, His Majesty was not injured at all. Wu Shang also showed great power and killed the eight demon saints, which is really admirable!”
“Everywhere, only the Sky Fox King, the Palace Master of Beiyue Palace and several seniors were able to suppress the Nine-Headed Yuan Sage and the Witch! “Jiuxie, I only contributed a little bit, it’s not worth mentioning,”
Lu Qian replied very modestly.
During the greetings, the palace maid served fragrant tea and fragrant fruits, and Xiao Ran and the two sat down.
“Alliance leader, I am working in a small place with little vitality, and I cannot grow any good tea. I hope that the alliance leader and this senior elixir will not dislike this crude tea fruit.”
Lu Qian sat behind the desk and smiled lightly. road.
“Haha, Your Majesty is being too modest.”
Xiao Ran picked up the teacup, took a sip of the fragrant tea, and nodded in praise: “Good tea! It leaves a fragrance on your lips and teeth, and has a sweet aftertaste! The fragrant tea grown in a land like Daqian is really good. It’s extraordinary. It’s even more mellow than Zheng Yimeng’s.
“It’s true, it’s comparable to Danxiang.”
Elder Dan, who was sitting next to Xiao Ran, smirked and praised.
Isn’t this embarrassing?
Lu Qian’s scalp felt numb after hearing this, so he got straight to the point and asked directly: “Xiao Alliance Leader, Elder Dan, both of you are busy people with many things to do, so you took time out of your busy schedule to come here. Is it possible that there is something important?”
” Your Majesty is right! There are three great things to happen!”
Xiao Ran put down the jade cup with a gentle smile.
“Oh? Please tell me.”
Lu Gan looked interested.
Xiao Ran said: “This first big happy event is naturally about Liu Wenxu. Liu Wenxu had evil intentions and colluded with the evil god. Fortunately, Taoist friend Xuanji was invincible and directly killed Liu Wenxu and the evil god, allowing the Zhengyi Alliance to avoid a disaster. This is a great calamity and great merit! In recent days, I and Taoist Shanshi, the master of the Zhenbao Pavilion, have dealt with Liu Wenxu’s remnants.”
“This is indeed a great joy! “
Lu Gan nodded, with a smile on his face.
However, he sneered in his heart. If the guess is correct, there will definitely be descendants of the Liu family who will stay. That Taoist Shanshi is the mastermind behind the rumor storm. This guy is sinister and vicious, and he will definitely be able to protect a few descendants of the Liu family and use them to deal with Da Gan in the future.
“It’s a pity that after I led people to raid Liu Wenxu’s home, there were not as many yuan stone treasures, magical elixir secrets, etc. as expected.”
At this time, Xiao Ran shook his head and sighed.
Sure enough! This guy definitely stole a large amount of Yuanshi treasure! hateful!
Lu Qian showed no emotion and anger, and asked calmly: “I wonder how many Yuan stones were found by the leader of the Xiao alliance when he raided Liu Wenxu’s house?”
“All kinds of treasures, magic weapons, magic secrets, panaceas, and pearls, agates, and other rare treasures. Together with the Yuan Stone gold, the total value is 24 million Yuan Stone. This amount of Yuan Stone can’t even fill the gap in the Treasure Pavilion’s deficit.”
Xiao Ran sighed.
Lu Gan’s expression darkened and he frowned slightly: “Liu Wenxu has been secretly controlling the Treasure Pavilion for many years. He should have hidden a lot of treasures. Why are there only so few Yuan stones? Could it be that someone secretly enriched his own pocket? Humph! I have the most precious treasures in my life. I hate this trash! Leader Xiao, please find this despicable and shameless person. I will make sure that his descendants will die as slaves!”
These words were full of indignation and murderous intent. Tengteng, but it gives people a sense of pointing fingers and innuendo.
Yun Luo next to him raised the corners of his mouth slightly and smiled coquettishly.
Xiao Ran and Dan Lao looked at each other, their expressions stiff.
Afterwards, Xiao Ran’s expression returned to normal, and he said with a smile: “Your Majesty, don’t be angry. I was surprised at first, but after checking, I found out that Liu Wenxu secretly misappropriated the treasures of the Treasure Pavilion to cultivate himself, and also cultivated the Evil God Altar for the Barbarian Stars. That’s right. Because of this, his remaining wealth is so small. “
That’s unreasonable! Liu Wenxu is really a beast!”
Lu Gan cursed.
“Haha, Your Majesty, please be patient. Although these 24 million yuan of stones are not enough to fill up the Zhenbao Pavilion, the master of the Zhenbao Pavilion, Taoist Shanshi, is still willing to use 3 million yuan of stones to pawn Da Gan. What do you think of your majesty as compensation?”
Xiao Ran took another sip of tea and asked with a smile.
“Only three million?”
Lu Qian couldn’t help but frown.
Isn’t this looking down on people?
Moreover, this was only given three million because of the big battle last night to suppress Wu Jiuxie and Jiutou Yuansheng.
If Zhao Xuanji was still here, this number would have increased at least ten times!
At this time, Xiao Ran chuckled and shook his head: “Your Majesty, these three million seem to be a little less, but I and Taoist Shanshi fought for it together. Your Majesty also knows that Zhenbao Pavilion is one of the three major business alliances. , raised a lot of people, and now such a big thing happened, being able to give out three million is considered sincere. In addition, I and Taoist Shanshi are willing to pay five hundred thousand each out of their own pockets to compensate. It’s compensation for your majesty’s negligence. This adds up to four million yuan. I wonder if your majesty is satisfied?”
“Four million yuan?”
Lu Gan’s frown relaxed.
This Xiao Ran is worthy of being an old fox. He speaks the scene very beautifully and even grasps people’s psychological bottom line very well.
Most people would really accept it reluctantly, and feel a little grateful to Xiao Ran and Taoist Shanshi.
However, Lu Gan is no ordinary person.
He frowned, lost in thought.
This made Xiao Ran and the old elixir stunned for a moment, and they looked at each other, with a strange color flashing in their eyes. They didn’t know what kind of medicine Lu Gan Gourd was selling.
After a long time, Lu Qian’s expression changed slightly, and he frowned and said: “Oh, I suddenly feel so tired.”
Almost instantly, Yun Luo understood the idea next to him and showed a worried look on his face: “Your Majesty, are you feeling ill? Is there someone here? “Send the imperial doctor!”
“Elder Eli is here, he is proficient in medical skills. Why don’t you ask Elder Elixir to take your majesty’s pulse?”
Xiao Ran said immediately.
The old elixir stroked his white beard and looked a little proud: “Your Majesty, I dare not say anything else. In terms of alchemy and medicine, the entire Zhengdao League dares to claim to be the first, and no one dares to claim to be the second. If so, If possible, how about I help His Majesty with the diagnosis?”
“Then I’ll bother you, Mr. Dan.”
Lu Qian smiled a little sheepishly.
“Your Majesty, you don’t have to be polite.”
Elder Dan said, a golden crystal light flashed in his eyes, he looked up and down carefully, frowned slightly and said: “Your Majesty’s blood is ruddy, his breath is calm, and he is majestic. It doesn’t look like he’s suffering from a disease. It seems that the disease is a bit deep!”
The next moment, he took a few sips, frowned even more, and said, “That shouldn’t be the case. Your Majesty is so fragrant. Comparable to a human being, with such a powerful body and strong energy and blood, how can he feel tired and fatigued? Could it be
that he was poisoned accidentally during the battle last night?
Lu Qian’s expression condensed. asked.
Upon hearing this, Mr. Dan stood up suddenly and floated to the desk: “Your Majesty, please reach out and I will take your Majesty’s pulse.”
“Okay.”
Lu Qian nodded and stretched out his hand.
Then, Dan Lao’s five fingers flashed with a faint golden light, and he placed them on Lu Qian’s wrist pulse, listening intently.
The more he listened, the more solemn his expression became, and his pupils narrowed.
Even Xiao Ran, who was sitting quietly on the side, felt something was wrong and wondered in his heart. Could it be that Lu Qian was really poisoned? He quickly asked: “Elder Dan, what did you hear?”
Elder Dan’s eyes flashed, and he said five words with great solemnity: ” I heard…the general’s order!”
“Are you still saved?”
Yun Luo’s face turned pale when he heard it, and he asked quickly.
Dan Lao said: “We are looking forward to hearing and asking, this still depends on the last step! Your Majesty, please answer a few questions for me!”
“Okay!”
Lu Qian nodded solemnly.
Elder Dan asked: “Has Your Majesty often suffered from insomnia at night recently and had trouble sleeping?”
“That’s right.”
Elder Dan asked again: “Is Your Majesty often depressed and short of breath?”
“Yes!”
Elder Dan said again: ” Your
Majesty
, have you been feeling very nervous since the end of the month? You often have trouble eating or drinking, and you are prone to anemia
?
What’s the disease?”
For a moment, Yun Luo and Xiao Ran’s eyes were fixed on Elder Dan.
Elder Dan looked solemn and turned to look at the setting sun setting on the vermilion tile walls of the palace outside the royal study. He said with great regret: “Your Majesty has an incurable disease.”
“What is it?”
When Xiao Ran heard this, he felt happy in his heart and his face was full of joy. Showing the false compassion of a cat crying over a mouse.
The next moment, Mr. Dan’s face turned cold, he snorted, his body flashed, he sat back on the chair, and coldly uttered two words:
“Lack of money.”
“Peerless miracle doctor!”
Lu Gan retracted his hand, slapped the table and stood up, requesting with utmost seriousness: “Leader Xiao, in order to treat this incurable disease for me… I have to pay more for this matter!”
Xiao Ran: “…”
Yun Luo: O( ≧▽≦)OAdd money, add money, add money!
