In the next two days, all the officials who resisted the new emperor's decree were found evidence of corruption and bribery by Zhen Guogong Wei Huaimian and were imprisoned.For a while, many people in the court couldn't sleep at night, especially some officials whose hands were not clean, and they were even more worried that they would see General Wei with his guards at the gate of the mansion the next day.

The newly promoted officials quickly filled the vacancy. The people were oppressed by evil officials and even went to Longming Mountain spontaneously to pray for His Majesty the day before the new emperor's enthronement ceremony.

Longming Mountain is located in the northern outskirts of Chengjing. In the past, someone heard the sound of dragons singing in the mountain, and the top of the mountain was full of rays of light, as if seeing a fairy trail, so it was named Longming Mountain.

Originally, everyone just took this as an anecdote and listened to it, but just yesterday, many people really saw the glow on the top of the mountain, and there was an endless stream of people going up the mountain to pray for blessings.

Many ministers in the DPRK and China took this opportunity to write some articles and poems to praise this event, calling it an auspicious omen before the new emperor ascended the throne.

"I heard that more than [-]% of the people in Chengjing have gone to Longming Mountain, and the temples on Longming Mountain are hard to find. What does your majesty think?" Lu Yuanling, who was standing aside, clicked his tongue a few times.

Tang Liyin said casually: "It's all about human effort, how can we place our hopes on gods and Buddhas for these things?"

Officials from the Ministry of Rituals delivered the crown robe the night before the enthronement ceremony. The dragon pattern on it was lifelike, and the white jade pendant beads on the crown seemed to be soaked in water, with a crystal-clear light.

It was just an icy and cold dress originally placed in a cold jade tray, but when it was worn by this person, it seemed that every stitch and every thread was endowed with a new life.

The light golden crown seems to have layers of ripples flashing. If it is worn by ordinary people, it may be overshadowed by this crown, but now the person wearing this crown is even more beautiful than this costume. It should be a little bit brighter, and it will bring a bit of dusty jade color to his face, making him look even more noble and compelling.

Lu Yuanling coughed lightly, and looked away uncomfortably.

This enthronement ceremony was co-organized by him and the people from the Ministry of Rites. Many officials were dismissed, and the new officials had to handle the important event of the new emperor's enthronement as soon as they arrived.

Lu Yuanling felt uneasy after thinking about it, and he still proposed to cooperate, and he didn't think about the matter of being restricted by Tang Zheng before.

It wasn't just him, the entire Lu Mansion was almost secretly monitored at that time. After he heard about Tang Zheng's purpose, he realized that he might have been regarded as a "certificate of nomination" by Tang Zheng, and he and the eldest princess were both under house arrest. In fact, it was also to win Si You's trust.

Sure enough, he was very accurate at seeing people. He had seen Tang Zheng Lu Ziye since he was a child, and he didn't play cards according to common sense.

Now that Tang Zheng's people are gone, it's impossible for him to chase Chengjing out just to avenge that revenge, and he doesn't have that much free time either.And this guy must have an element of public revenge in it, after all, they haven't dealt with it all these years.

Lu Yuanling calmed down, and when he looked at Tang Liyin again, his eyes became more calm, and he didn't notice Wei Huaimian's gaze projected from the side.

"Your Majesty, it will be an auspicious time in half a quarter," he said.

Tang Liyin nodded, and the palace servants behind her were still arranging Tang Liyin's complicated clothes, for fear that something might go wrong and ruin the whole ceremony.

After all the palace people retreated, Tang Liyin looked at Wei Huaimian and asked, "Does Master Wei want to give me something?"

Sensing the atmosphere between the two of them, Lu Yuanling retreated out with the palace servants knowingly, and before leaving, he reminded him not to miss the time.

Now there were only two people left in the spacious and bright hall.

Wei Huaimian was a little surprised when he heard Tang Liyin's words, and sighed, "How did Your Majesty find out?"

"From just now, your hand touched the sleeve twice, and every time you touched something in the sleeve, you would look at me."

Seeing that Wei Huaimian was silent, Tang Liyin frowned and said, "Could it be that I guessed wrong?"

"Your Majesty guessed correctly, I do have something to give to Your Majesty." Wei Huaimian sighed in his heart for the other party's extremely keen observation ability, while putting his hand in his sleeve, but didn't take it out for a long time, as if he was worried.

Tang Liyin reached out and took the thing from the other party, and was a little surprised after seeing it: "Is it Longming Mountain's wishing lottery?"

Wei Huaimian nodded, still thinking about what Tang Liyin said about the wishing lottery just now, since it is said that it depends on human effort, does it mean that the other party doesn't really agree with this kind of wishing lottery?

Tang Liyin stared at the two-finger-long wishing stick for a few moments. It was engraved with intricate patterns and had a woody fragrance.

Just now Lu Yuanling also said that it's hard to get a lottery on Longming Mountain now, Master Wei has lost many weeks to get this lottery.

"I have something for you too."

When Tang Liyin said this, he took out something from his sleeve, which turned out to be a wishing stick. He didn't pay attention to Wei Huaimian's shocked expression, and put the wishing stick into the opponent's hand, and said with a smile: "Since I have one too, let's exchange it." .”

"Your Majesty is not..."

"Although the people are praying for me, to me, Master Wei's safety is equally important, and I want to share everything with you."

Tang Liyin paused, and continued: "So, Master Wei's luck is also my luck."

The enthronement ceremony was held in front of the Chongguang Hall, and the ceremony was not over until the new emperor stepped up the 190 nine-level stone steps in front of the ministers, and accepted the ministers' kowtow to the court to read the late emperor's last edict and various canonization matters.

After the ceremony, Tang Liyin immediately planned to find Wei Huaimian, but the other party disappeared immediately after the ceremony.Tang Liyin hastily changed her crown clothes, and after dealing with the affairs in the palace, night had already quietly enveloped the entire palace city.

When asked about the palace people, they all said that General Wei had already returned to the mansion.

Tang Liyin felt that something was wrong, and felt palpitations inexplicably.

He left the palace in a hurry to go to Duke Zhen's mansion. Xie Li saw the dignified expression on his face and naturally did not dare to delay. He had already prepared the carriage, and found a reason to leave the palace, and informed the guards of the palace gate in advance. .

After all, the new emperor has a special status, so leaving the palace at this time will inevitably arouse unnecessary suspicion from others.

When Tang Liyin came to the door of Zhen Guogong's mansion, he only saw the closed door. Tang Liyin was about to ask Xie Li to knock on the door, but suddenly a familiar voice came from his ear.

"It's useless for you to go in now."

As soon as he turned his head, he saw Xuan Ye in white clothes standing behind him, who was holding a gray-haired horse in his hand. He looked like he had just arrived in Chengjing not long ago.

Tang Liyin frowned and glanced at him: "What do you mean?"

"You don't have to worry too much, you'll know everything when you see Wei Huaimian." Xuan Ye laughed.

At this time, the gate of the Zhen Guogong Mansion was also opened. The servant who had just come out to take a look at the movement at the gate suddenly saw the face of the new emperor. The other party seemed to be in a bad mood. Could it be that General Wei did something to offend His Majesty? ?

But even if this is the case, there is no need for His Majesty to visit in person.

Xie Li said: "Hurry up and open the person."

The man didn't dare to neglect, the people beside him rushed into the mansion and informed the steward.

Tang Liyin didn't pause halfway, and walked directly towards the bedroom where Wei Huaimian lived.Even though Wei Huaimian inherited the title of Duke of Zhen, he did not move into the main house, and lived in the bedroom he used to live in.

The steward has been following along, almost unable to keep up with Tang Liyin's footsteps.He didn't know why the new emperor would visit the Duke's mansion at this time, but after all, this was a matter for General Wei and His Majesty, and it was not easy for them servants to ask.

"When General Wei came back today, what was different from usual?" Tang Liyin asked.

"This..." The steward hesitated for a moment before he said: "General Wei seems to be more anxious than usual, dinner is useless, and he went directly to the bedroom to rest after returning home."

When he got to the door, Tang Liyin pushed the door open. He acted in a hurry, but Wei Huaimian didn't really lock the door from the inside.

Seeing this situation, Tang Liyin walked in directly, followed by Xuan Ye, while Xie Li stood at the door and did not allow other idlers to enter.

The steward watched from the sidelines, with an unavoidable look of anxiety on his face.

"What's your majesty's intention?" His majesty didn't know why he came this time, and he looked menacing because he didn't know if his majesty would be detrimental to Mr. Wei.

Xie Li explained from the side: "Your Majesty is concerned about General Wei. General Wei has not fully recovered from his injuries in northern Xinjiang. His Majesty noticed General Wei's abnormality and was worried that General Wei's old illness would relapse, so he came to visit him specially. "

Hearing what the other party said, the steward was a little relieved.

He has also been the steward of the Duke of Zhen for 20 years. It can be said that he watched General Wei grow up. He naturally knows that the other party will never make people worry. He can handle things in an orderly manner at the age of dancing spoons. Showing a calmness that is different from other children.

Therefore, when he noticed that the other party was acting differently than usual, he didn't think much about it.

Tang Liyin walked into the inner room, only to see Wei Huaimian sitting cross-legged on the slum with his eyes tightly closed, like a statue, unshakable as a rock.

He called a few times tentatively, but got no response.

"What's wrong with Mr. Wei?" Tang Liyin looked at Xuan Ye, knowing that since the other party would come here, he would definitely be able to solve his doubts.

"He is resisting the influence of the curse. His generation of Wei family bloodline should be the last generation." Xuan Ye said.

Tang Liyin was stunned for a moment, and immediately denied: "How is it possible, and Wei Qingqing... how can it be the last generation."

"Although the former Duke of Zhen is Wei Huaimian's uncle, the two are not related by blood. They are the sons of a comrade-in-arms adopted by the old Duke of Zhen. Naturally, they cannot be considered as members of the Wei family in blood. Wei Qingqing and Wei Huaimian are also not related by blood." Xuan Ye explained.

Tang Liyin suddenly realized something, and said, "So the last time Mr. Wei went to Xuandu, the hidden dangers on his body were not eliminated at all?"

"That's right." Xuan Ye said helplessly, "He insisted on leaving, even the disciples of Xuandu couldn't keep him."

"Then what should I do?" Tang Liyin looked at Wei Huaimian.Then his eyes fell on Xuan Ye, since Xuan Ye chose to come to Chengjing to find him at this time, there must be a way.

"To save him, I'm afraid you are the only one in the world who can." Xuan Ye said.

"You just tell me what I want to do." Tang Liyin frowned, not in the mood to talk nonsense to the other party.

I saw Xuan Ye took out a wooden box with many red threads wrapped around it, I don't know what Xuan Ye did, those red threads slowly scattered, the carved wooden box was opened, and a piece of blood jade lay inside.

It is said to be blood jade, but in fact it is a group of bright red that cannot be melted on the delicate white jade, which melts into the jade like a drop of blood.

When Tang Liyin was about to reach out to touch it, Xuan Ye directly closed the box, ignoring Tang Liyin's astonished expression, and said to himself:

"Xuandu does have the method of longevity, but everyone in Xuandu knows that we are only guarding the method of longevity, and everything about it is in this jade. Only specific people can pick it up, otherwise they will become crazy and stupid, Only primitive instinct remains like a beast.

"Remember the guy who attacked you when we first met?"

Tang Liyin realized that last time that person probably became crazy because he touched something he shouldn't have touched.

"Then why do you think I can do it?" Tang Liyin said coldly: "If I touch it, I will also become crazy and stupid. What should you do?"

"It depends on how much you are willing to pay for what you want in your heart." Xuan Ye raised his hand and stroked the surface of the wooden box, "Everything comes with certain risks."

Tang Liyin noticed that Wei Huaimian's brows were frowning, and the corners of his mouth were gradually oozing blood. He glanced at Xuan Ye sharply, and said, "You tell me what I want to do, and I'm ready to pay the price, but it's you who never said clearly. , is it possible that you are not willing to let me use this to save people?"

Xuan Ye was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the idea that he had hidden could be said by the other party in this way, but only half of what he said was right.

Although he didn't want to use the things in the wooden box to save people, since he brought them here, he gave Tang Liyin the power to choose. If the other party backed down, everyone would be happy. If the other party didn't back down, then he wouldn't back down.

"At the beginning, the last person of the ancient witch tribe used the corpses of all the tribe members to curse the early death of the descendants of the Wei family. The murder was originally caused by the ancestors of the Wei family, but the descendants had to bear it. Therefore, they wanted to offset the influence of the ancient witch curse. You need to use another thing to purify."

Tang Liyin took the box from the opponent's hand, and took out the piece of blood jade from it. According to Xuan Ye, everything was normal at the beginning of contact. After a long time of contact, many places will change, and even affect people's nerves and memory.

He didn't dare to be negligent, and was planning to put the blood jade between Wei Huaimian's eyebrows according to what Xuan Ye said.

"Have you really made a decision?" Xuan Ye said: "The secret formula of the longevity method is sealed in the jade, if you use it now, then you will never have another chance."

Moreover, Xuanye still had a guess in his heart that the box was actually something that the former emperor sent ministers to search for immortals overseas, so it was naturally the stuff of that "immortal".

The portraits left in Xuandu proved that the other party's appearance was basically the same as the immortal in the ancient painting. If Tang Liyin used this thing on himself, he might be able to restore the memory of that time, and even become immortal in one step.

And what he wants to know more is the existence of Xuandu, and the existence of these people, what is the significance.If the "immortal" is awakened, all this will have an answer.

"I don't need it." After Tang Liyin finished speaking, watching the blood droplets on the blood jade gradually disappear, and Wei Huaimian's body gradually warmed up, Tang Liyin gradually breathed a sigh of relief.

"Since you have already made a decision, I respect your choice." Xuan Ye said lightly.

"But you still need to do one thing now, to help the drop of blood flow through your body quickly, otherwise all the previous efforts will be in vain."

After Xuan Ye finished speaking, Tang Liyin looked up and met Wei Huaimian's eyes, the eyes were clear but a little more unbearably hot than usual.

Tang Liyin felt a chill between his lips in the next second, and Wei Huaimian inserted his hand into his hair, deepening the kiss, so close that he could smell each other's breath.

Xuan Ye didn't look too much, and directly backed out. Since the other party had already made a choice, he would not interfere in the future.
