Xian Dynasty Era

Chapter 521 Brother... Why is it here!
卫宫
Inside the palace, it was empty and quiet. Although the earth dragons were burning and the charcoal braziers set up in all directions were burning fiercely, there was still a sense of coldness that could not be suppressed.

There is also a faint herbal smell in the hall, permeating it.

Su Zhao followed Wei Jing and Zhang Shi into the bedroom, stood in the hall, and looked up at the young man on the bed.

At this moment, Wei Zhong was lying on his back on the imperial couch, his cheeks sunken, his eye sockets black and blue, and his breath weak. He seemed to have heard the sound of footsteps outside. He opened his eyes and asked the maid serving beside him, : "Who is outside?"

The voice was weak, hoarse, and barely audible.

Wei Jing looked at Wei Zhong quietly, her delicate body trembling, as if being struck by thunder, she said in a low voice: "Brother..."

Seeing her elder brother who was originally high-spirited, like Zhilan Yushu, with a haggard face and almost lost his appearance, Wei Jing felt a pain in her heart, and then remembered the culprit, and gave Zhang a cold look.

"Fifth Sister." With the help of the maidservant, Wei Zhong struggled to get up from the imperial couch, looked around, a hint of surprise appeared on his pale face, and said, "Fifth Sister, when did you come back?"

However, when he suddenly saw Su Zhao behind Mrs. Zhang, Wei Zhong was startled and said, "Marquis Su is here too."

Su Zhao's face was silent, he looked at Wei Zhong, his brows were furrowed, his eyes flickered, thoughtful.

Although Wei Zhong in front of him didn't dare to say that his life was full of death, his life was not long, but his energy was indeed overflowing, and he looked like he was overindulging in sexual desire.

"Brother Wei, I haven't seen you for ten months, how did you become like this?" Su Zhao said with a sigh.

There is no gloating in my heart, I just feel sad.

As a prince and the king of a country, Wei Zhong is too miserable.

However, this also just shows that without the support of the Immortal Dao, relying solely on Wei Zhong's mortal power, it is impossible to guard against the endless ghost tricks of the Immortal Dao.

Wei Jing stepped forward and said: "Brother, you have always been in good health, do you know that you are suffering from illness now, who murdered you?"

Wei Zhong felt a little embarrassed, and said: "Brother is just suffering from overwork, and has nothing to do with others. Who is there to murder?"

According to what the imperial physician said, he was unrestrained, indulged in excesses, and then accidentally contracted a cold, so he couldn't get sick. How could anyone secretly murder him?

At this moment, Wei Zhong couldn't talk about the details in front of his fifth sister and brother-in-law.

Wei Jing said coldly: "Mr. Zhang, tell me!"

Zhang's complexion changed slightly, his eyes rolled a few times, and he smiled lightly: "Your Highness, what do you want me to say?"

Wei Jing sneered, and said: "Tell me how you colluded with the head of the Acacia Sect to sneak into the harem, and what kind of evil methods did you two adulterers use to harm your brother?"

Zhang's face turned pale, and she said angrily, "Why... are you spitting blood!"

Wei Jing's beautiful eyes flashed a cold light, and she said coldly: "What kind of thing is the suzerain of the Hehuan sect?

Zhang's complexion changed, and she cried and said, "Your Majesty, my concubine has been wronged!"

"This..." Wei Zhong frowned while listening to Zhang's quarrel with his fifth younger sister, and asked in confusion, "What's going on?"

Su Zhao glanced at Mrs. Zhang lightly, and said, "Brother Wei, the reason why you are lying on the sick bed is because the Suzerain Sect Master used sorcery to injure you, which caused your essence to overflow and kidney essence to deplete."

Wei Zhong's complexion changed, and he couldn't help feeling suspicious, he asked, "Su Hou is serious?"

Mrs. Zhang said anxiously: "Your Majesty, don't listen to these two people's gossip! These two people are going to pollute the innocence of the ministers and concubines, and then force the palace king to do something against you!"

Su Zhao said coldly: "Shut up, bitch!"

A wave of princely coercion enveloped Zhang Shi silently, Zhang Shi still wanted to open his mouth to argue a few words, but felt terrified, and his face couldn't help but frightened.

Su Zhao looked indifferent, and said: "Brother Wei, it's not difficult to verify this matter, but the court lady who has passed the personnel inspection checked this woman, and she had an affair with the Acacia Sect master a few hours ago, and there is still room in her body. Traces... As for Ye Shihuan of the Acacia Sect, I fought against him just after I entered the palace gate. The generals of the imperial army and the palace maids, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Brother Wei knew immediately after asking that it was the lord of the Acacia Sect. Ye Shihuan changed his appearance and sneaked in. In Brother Wei's palace, serve as a lieutenant!"

Hearing this, Wei Zhong's eyes darkened, and he raised his eyes to look at Mrs. Zhang, his voice was hoarse, suppressing his anger faintly, and said, "Tell me, is there such a thing?"

In fact, Wei Zhong already believed [-]% to [-]% of Su Zhao's words, making it even more difficult for him to falsify his words of proof.

At this moment, Mrs. Zhang's face was ashen-colored, her lips were moving, and she lowered her head, not daring to respond.

She did have a good time with that person this morning, this... will definitely not stand the test.

Seeing this, Wei Zhong closed his eyes weakly, and said angrily, "Come here..."

Before he finished speaking, two strange blushes appeared on his sunken cheeks, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, "Wow", he felt dizzy in front of his eyes, lost consciousness, and fell unconscious.

"Brother!" Wei Jing's face turned pale, and she shouted.

Su Zhao also stepped forward to check, frowned and said: "It's just that I was out of breath and passed out."

Mrs. Zhang also looked sad, knelt down in front of Wei Zhong's bed, tears streaming down her face, and said in a mournful voice: "Your Majesty...don't scare my concubine..."

After all, couples who have shared the same bed for several years are not without feelings.

Wei Jing glanced at Mrs. Zhang in disgust, and shouted, "Come on!"

Suddenly, there were chaotic and dense footsteps outside the palace. A young lieutenant, leading a few imperial guards, stepped into the palace to check the situation. When he saw Wei Jing, he looked serious and clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness!"

After all, Wei Jing has just married to the State of Su not long ago, and the palace ban general is no stranger to her.

"This lowly servant girl colluded with demons and murdered my brother. You will take her down and keep him under strict supervision. After your majesty wakes up, I will deal with it." Wei Jing said in a cold voice with her jade face as clear as frost.

"This……"

Hearing this, the generals of the Forbidden Army looked at each other in blank dismay for a moment, but they didn't dare to move rashly.

"Wait, what are you doing in a daze?" Su Zhao snorted coldly, and said in a deep voice, "Take this girl down, and quickly call Dazai Wei Hun and Grand Sima Wu Shou into the palace to discuss state affairs."

The captain of the Forbidden Army's complexion changed, he clasped his fists to promise, and ordered the soldiers behind him to pick up the pale-faced Mrs. Zhang and go out. At the same time, he quickly sent someone to notify Dazai and Da Sima to enter the palace.

Wei Jing asked anxiously, "Do you have any medicine?"

Su Zhao took out a elixir bottle and said in a deep voice: "There is a elixir for nourishing essence and qi in it, you can take it for him. Although your elder brother is depleted of qi and energy, he is not in danger of life and death, and he is in his prime. Years, rest for a while, and you will be able to recover."

Wei Jing was stunned for a moment, staring at Su's photo with complicated eyes, took the pill bottle, took off the cork, and poured out a pill. Well, even Wei Jing, who first entered the immortal way, knew that she was not ordinary.

Hastily asked the maid to serve Wei Zhong.

Not long after, Wei Zhong's originally sunken and dark yellow cheeks gradually turned red, and his breathing became even. After waiting for about two quarters of an hour, Wei Zhong woke up faintly, and seemed to be more energetic.

"Brother!" Wei Jing exclaimed in surprise, "Are you feeling better?"

Wei Zhong sighed at this moment, and said, "Fifth Sister, what happened just now."

Wei Jing said: "Just now I gave you the elixir to nourish the essence, you should be fine now."

At that time, there was a general outside the palace who said loudly: "Your Majesty, Dazai Weigong and Da Sima are already waiting outside the palace."

Wei Zhong looked at Wei Jing in surprise: "Wei Gong and Wu Qing you summoned?"

Wei Jing glanced at Su Zhao, and said in a clear voice, "I ordered someone to take down that Zhang family. Your palace guards didn't follow orders, and he also provided the elixir just now."

Hearing this, Wei Zhong was silent for a while, looking at Su Zhao, he felt mixed feelings in his heart. At first, he thought that Su Hou would take the opportunity to seize his Wei Guo foundation, but he didn't want to...

Wei Zhongdao: "Thank you Su Hou for your generous help."

Su Zhao said: "Brother Wei, you are being polite. Jing'er is my concubine, and Su Wei is the country of in-laws. Unfortunately, Brother Wei was murdered by a villain. It is justified for me to help."

Su Zhaodao: "The Zhang family colluded with the demons of the Hehuan sect, this matter needs to be investigated by Brother Wei himself."

Wei Zhong sighed.

If it was said that there was the last ounce of doubt about the words of the young prince and lord before, then now it is [-]% sure that Zhang shi colluded with the demon and murdered him.

While the two were talking, outside the hall, under the eaves, two people came hurriedly.

"Veteran (minister) has seen Your Majesty, Your Highness Princess." Dazai Wei Hun and Grand Sima Wu Shou entered the hall and paid homage.

The two of them learned from the imperial guards that Wei Jun passed out, Princess Changle and Su Hou arrested Wei Jun's wife in the palace, and even issued orders in the palace, they were completely shocked.

Dazai Wei Hun even wanted to send troops into the palace to rescue him, but was dissuaded by Wu Shou.

"Your Majesty, you..." Wei Hui's old eyes showed concern.

At first, he was still worried about Wei Jun's safety, but when he looked up, he saw Wei Jun's face was flushed, how could he look seriously ill?
Can't help but become suspicious, could it be Huiguang...

Wei Zhongqiang smiled to himself, and said: "Wei Gong, I am alone, I have received the elixir from Marquis Su, and the symptoms of wind and cold have been relieved a lot."

Wei Hui's complexion changed, and he said, "Your Majesty, Madam, she..."

Wei Zhong's complexion changed, his gaze was absent for a moment, and he said coldly: "Madam doesn't know people well, and trusts monsters so easily that monsters sneak into the palace."

Obviously, I don't want to mention Zhang's collusion with demons.

Seeing this, Wei Hui still had doubts, but it was not easy to ask.

With the help of the maid, Wei Zhong got up from the bed, and said to Wei Jing: "I've been lying on the bed for a long time, I lost my appetite, and I feel hungry and thirsty."

Wei Jing hurriedly said, "Then I'll pass the meal on."

Wei Zhong nodded.

Immediately, the maids and eunuchs went to pass the meal to the imperial dining room.

Wei Zhong looked at Su Zhao silently, sighed from the bottom of his heart, and said to Wei Hui again: "Mr. Wei, these days, I still need to take care of myself alone. The state affairs are first entrusted to Suhou and Princess Changle."

"Your Majesty!" Wei Hun's complexion changed drastically, and he looked at Wei Zhong in shock. He only had one thought now. Could it be that the Monarch in front of him was transferred by Suhou?
Wu Shou frowned, looking at Wei Zhong calmly, thoughtful.

Su Zhao said: "Brother Wei, just take one more pill of that medicine, and it will be cured."

Wei Hun hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, all the officials in the court hope that you will recover and take care of things."

Wei Zhong waved his hand, looked at Su Zhao who was beside him, and said, "Su Hou is here, what do you mean?"

Su Zhao pondered for a while, and said: "Brother Wei, the rebels from the four counties are entrenched in the north, and they are ready to support Jin's re-invasion at any time, and they urgently need to be conquered."

Wei Zhongdao: "Su Hou knows the military plan well, and Su Hou assists in military affairs, so he can sit back and relax alone."

Wei Hun's eyes became anxious, and he wanted to say something, but at this moment, Wei Zhong waved his hand and said, "Wei Gong, you can discuss with Su Hou more, I'm tired."

Su Zhao thought for a while and said, "Duke Wei, why don't you go to the side hall to have a talk."

Wei Hun snorted coldly, but ignored Su Zhao, and said to Wu Shou who was beside him, "Military affairs have always been planned by Wu Sima, you can discuss it with Marquis Su."

Saying that, he cupped his hands at Wei Zhong, and left with a flick of his sleeves, obviously frustrated by Wei Zhong's leading the wolf into the house.

Seeing this, Su Zhao didn't say anything, Wei Hun was Wei Xiangge's grandfather after all, and then entered a side hall with Wu Shou.

Wei Zhong and his sister were the only ones left in the palace, Wei Jing hesitated to speak, "Brother..."

"Fifth Sister wants to ask my brother, why do you entrust all the general affairs to Marquis Su?" Wei Zhong suddenly asked.

Wei Jing said quietly: "Brother, even if it is to repay the kindness of giving the pill, it will not be like this."

Wei Zhong sighed softly, remained silent for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Su Hou wants to take away my Wei family's foundation, don't you know that?"

Wei Jing's expression froze, and she said, "Brother..."

Wei Zhongdao: "You don't have to hide it for him. The young hero of Suhou has the heart of messing with the world. He wants to defend our country's foundation. Everyone knows that he may have resentment before, but now he has relieved a lot. , this world is originally the world of the common people, and the virtuous live there. There is no ability to calm the people inside, and there is no power to expand the soil outside. They cannot protect the people of our country. Even though there is no Marquis Su, there are Jin Jun, Qin Wang, and Zheng Jun .”

"Brother, you..." Wei Jing's heart trembled, but she didn't know how to persuade her.With her elder brother on one side and her husband on the other, what can she say?

Wei Zhong smiled and said, "Gu can see that he cares about you very much, you seem to have a friendship for a long time?"

Wei Jing blushed, and sighed, "He's just playing around a little bit, it's better for my brother to be more dedicated."

Hearing this, Wei Zhong's face suddenly darkened, his eyes were absent for a moment, and after a long time, he laughed at himself and said: "Using affection, but being deceived by monsters, treating the people with kindness, but the father doubts his wife's betrayal..."

Wei Jing said: "Brother, it's not your fault, those monsters have secretive methods, it's impossible to guard against."

A look of pain appeared in the depths of Wei Zhong's eyes, and he said, "Fifth Sister, stop talking about this."

Wei Jing pursed her lips and said no more.

Wei Zhong was silent for a moment, looked at Wei Jing, and said in a deep voice: "Fifth Sister, tell Suhou that if you promise to do something for your brother, you will give him the foundation of the Kingdom of Wei as a gift."

Wei Jing froze on the spot, dumbfounded and said: "Brother, what did you say?"

Wei Zhong took a deep breath and said, "It's better to be a gift to Marquis Su than to be conspired by other countries. Tell him, as long as he makes you his wife!"

"Brother...why did you come to this?" Wei Jing pursed her cherry lips, feeling extremely shocked, and said, "Brother, why did this happen? He promised me that even if Wei entered the Soviet Union, he would leave a piece of land for Wei." The National Ancestral Temple offers sacrifices and enshrines."

Even though she is extremely eager to become Su Zhao's wife, Wei Jing does not want to bind her position as wife with the foundation of Weiguo from the bottom of her heart, she cannot bear this burden.

Wei Zhongdao: "If the Marquis of Su wants to compete with the states of Zhongzhou, he can only join Wei to Su as soon as possible. If there is no help from Gu, the people of the princes and gentry in Wei State will not be convinced, and the rise of Su State will be delayed. Even if Gu does not cooperate , Will Su Hou give up? The Acacia Sect can use demon magic, almost killing Gu, and Su Hou, who has repelled the Acacia Sect Master, wants to take over our country's foundation, and it is even easier to think about it."

Wei Jing said: "He won't."
