Chapter 556: One more sinister than the other
"I came here this time because I heard that Your Majesty was ill, so I came here to have a look. Is there any problem?"
Ye Zhen'er didn't talk nonsense and got straight to the point.
"Of course, sister, you care about His Majesty. There is no reason for me to stop him."
The queen smiled.
Of course she wanted to stop Ye Zhen'er.
But she knew very well that she couldn't stop it at all.
Even though Ye Zhen'er looks dignified and innocent now, back then she was a "witch" who was inexplicable to her father and acted lawlessly.
If she dared to stop her, Ye Zhen'er would definitely dare to cause trouble.
If other people were making trouble, she could easily suppress it.
But Ye Zhen'er is a half-step Martial Emperor, and he can definitely turn the palace upside down if he makes trouble.
Then, Ye Zhen'er took Ling Yun and Zhang Tieniu and walked towards the main hall of Taihe Hall.
As he approached the main hall, Ling Yun frowned and sensed a unique aura.
But for a while, he couldn't tell what was going on.
It didn't take long before they met the emperor.
The emperor was over a hundred years old, with gray hair, but his skin was still rosy and shiny, as if he were middle-aged.
You can feel it from far away, what kind of terrifying power is contained in this body.
But at this moment, the emperor had his eyes closed and his breathing was almost gone, like a vegetative person lying on a dragon couch.
Seeing this situation, Ye Zhen'er snorted coldly.
It was not that she sympathized with the emperor, but she thought that the emperor was usually aloof, but now he looked like this.
The most ridiculous thing is that no one around him really cares about him, and even wishes for his death. I have to say this is a huge irony.
Thinking back to the beginning, she was also obsessed with this man.
It wasn't until the day her sister died that she realized how cold-blooded and ruthless this man was.
Next to the emperor, there were several top doctors and alchemists from the Dan Pagoda.
Seeing Ye Zhen'er appear, these people were all shocked.
Ye Zhen'er has not shown up for decades, and they did not expect to see Ye Zhen'er today.
"Greetings to the empress and concubine."
All the imperial doctors and alchemists saluted one after another.
Among these alchemists, Ling Yun also saw an acquaintance, Qiu Xiao, the great elder of the Dan Pagoda.
"Elder Qiu."
Ling Yun walked over and held his hands.
Qiu Xiao frowned, but when she saw Ling Yun coming, she forced a smile: "Ling Yun."
Ling Yun asked directly: "Elder Qiu, you have diagnosed His Majesty the Emperor. Do you know the specific situation?"
Qiu Xiao did not hide anything and said truthfully: "In fact, His Majesty's symptoms did not appear suddenly, there were faint signs as early as more than ten years ago.
It's just that His Majesty didn't pay much attention to it, and we didn't detect any abnormalities. Until half a year ago, His Majesty's health suddenly deteriorated, he began to cough up blood, and he often felt dizzy.
Ten days ago, while His Majesty was reviewing the memorial, he suddenly fainted. Not only was he unable to wake up, but his vitality became weaker and weaker. "
"You didn't notice any special symptoms?"
Ling Yun frowned.
"Indeed not, that's why it's strange."
Qiu Xiao said.
Ling Yun then asked other alchemists and imperial doctors, and the results he got were the same as Qiu Xiao's.
Ling Yun nodded slightly and walked to the emperor to check without asking any more questions.
The next moment, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.
He thought of the indescribable feeling he had when entering the hall.
Soul-breaking wood!
Your Majesty, you are poisoned by the soul-breaking tree.
The soul-breaking wood comes from the demon clan.
This kind of thing can cause chronic damage to the human body.
If you live in a place with Yin Ming Mu for a long time, you won't be able to see anything in a short time. Over time, your internal organs and even your soul will be affected.
In addition, Ling Yun also sensed a vaguely familiar aura from the emperor.
But the aura was so obscure that it was difficult for Ling Yun to judge what was going on.
With Ye Zhen'er here, the queen and others did not stop Ling Yun.
Everyone knows that Ling Yun is an extraordinary alchemist.
It's okay when no outsiders are around, but in the public eye, if they stop Ling Yun, others will definitely doubt their intentions.
"Elder Qiu, I wonder what your judgment is on His Majesty's symptoms?"
Ling Yun asked.
"We feel that your majesty may have gone astray in his practice."
Qiu Xiao said.
They couldn't find the problem and could only suspect that there was something wrong with the emperor's own practice.
Next to them, the queen and the prince were a little worried.
Could this Ling Yun really be able to save the emperor?
Unable to help themselves, they looked at an imperial doctor in the hall.
This imperial doctor was Li Changsheng, the order of the Imperial Medical Office of the Great Zhou Dynasty. His alchemy skills in the ancient continent were second only to the master of the Dan Pagoda.
A hundred years ago, Li Changsheng was already an Alchemist.
In terms of age and seniority, he is taller than the Lord of Dan Pagoda.
It's just that the master of Danta was so stunning that he surpassed him later.
Sensing the gazes of the Queen and the Crown Prince, Li Changsheng nodded slightly to them.
When the queen and the prince saw this, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
They knew that Li Changsheng was hinting to them that it was impossible for Ling Yun to save the emperor.
Li Changsheng's self-confidence is by no means arrogant.
Because the methods they used against the emperor were completely beyond the realm of alchemy in the ancient continent.
This is known from the fact that the emperor himself, a mighty martial emperor, was plotted by them but knew nothing about it.
With Li Changsheng's support, the queen also became confident.
Then, she looked at Ling Yun: "Ling Yun, I have heard that you have an amazing talent for alchemy, and you have saved many people who were diagnosed with terminal illnesses. I wonder what you think of His Majesty's condition?"
When these words came out, everyone around was shocked.
Ye Zhen'er frowned.
Obviously, the Queen's words were extremely sinister, almost like a heart-breaking move.
The Queen obviously knew that she could not stop Ling Yun from diagnosing the emperor, and Li Changsheng gave her confidence, so she simply played along and set a trap for Ling Yun.
In this situation, if Ling Yun said that he could not save the emperor, then the world would say, Ling Yun, you have saved so many terminally ill people, but you can't save the emperor, do you really not want to save the emperor?
If Ling Yun said that he could save the emperor, it would be better for the Queen and others.
Li Changsheng said that the emperor could not be saved. If Ling Yun went to save the emperor, but failed to wake the emperor in the end, it would be a capital crime.
Ling Yun did not speak.
He was observing the emperor's physical condition.
The Soul-Breaking Tree is very serious. If the soul is completely deteriorated, unless he has the accomplishments of his previous life, he cannot be saved.
Fortunately, the emperor's condition has not deteriorated to that extent.
"Lingyun, I heard that when he was in the Ancient City, Ji Dian had a terminal illness. Even Elder Qiu and all the alchemists in the Ancient City were helpless. In the end, you took action and saved Ji Dian."
Crown Prince Zhao Kang suddenly said: "I think you must have a way to save my father, right?"
Zhang Tieniu's face was extremely ugly.
The crown prince and the queen are worthy of being mother and son. They are more sinister than each other.
Zhao Kang's words were more sinister than the queen's previous words. It can be said that there was no cover-up. It was simply putting Lingyun in a desperate situation.
After he said that, how could Lingyun refuse?
Lingyun could even save Ji Dian, but he couldn't save the emperor. What would the world think?
