Chapter 321 The Fragrant Concubine Yu Qiangwei in the Cold Palace!
After a period of passionate lovemaking, the empress, who had tasted the sweetness of it, had a look of satisfaction on her face.
She was seen lying on the dragon couch, supporting her head with her snow-white arms.
Her peach blossom eyes flashed with spring, and she looked at Li Changsheng without blinking.
"How do you feel now? Have you made any breakthroughs?"
Li Changsheng circulated his true energy and carefully checked his dantian.
"I haven't broken through yet. I need time to refine it and unite the yin and yang in my body!"
The empress pondered for a moment and asked, "How much time do you have left?"
Li Changsheng said, "King Zhao said that Zhao Wuji and his men will arrive in two hours!"
The Empress frowned slightly and said, "Two hours? That's a bit too short!"
Li Changsheng nodded and said, "Well, it was a bit hasty. I have to go back now, otherwise, if I stay here for too long, they will easily become suspicious!"
Ying Yue nodded slightly and said, "Okay, go ahead. I'm going to look for my uncle too!"
Li Changsheng responded, hurriedly put on his clothes, and quickly left Changle Palace.
He looked up at the sky and saw that it was too early, so he did not return to the underground palace directly.
Instead, he planned to take a detour and go find Xie Chen.
Xie Chen seemed very surprised to see Li Changsheng.
"When did you come back?"
"Hey, how come there is a pure Yin force in your body, and it's so fresh?"
Li Changsheng was unable to explain this to Xie Chen, so he just avoided the topic and brushed it off.
Then, without waiting for Xie Chen to ask further questions.
He changed the subject and briefly explained the purpose of his visit.
After listening to Li Changsheng's story, Xie Chen was also shocked.
"What did you say? Prince Zhao wants to assassinate the emperor?"
Li Changsheng nodded and said, "Well, it's extremely urgent now. I'll need your help when the time comes!"
In fact, Xie Chen was very reluctant to get involved in the struggle within the court.
But now his granddaughter Xie Wanqing has become the emperor's concubine.
He simply couldn't stand idly by.
Xie Chen frowned, a worried look on his face. He said, "That Zen Master Kong Xiang had already entered the realm of Heavenly Grandmaster ten years ago. His profound Buddhist skills have already reached perfection. It will not be easy to deal with him!"
Li Changsheng said: "The Ying family ancestor is about to come out of retreat, so let him deal with this damn Kongxiang Zen Master!"
"As long as you can help contain the Zhao family's ancestor, Zhao Wuji, that will be enough!"
Xie Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Although I can't defeat Zhao Wuji, it wouldn't be difficult if I could just contain him."
Seeing that Xie Chen was able to restrain Zhao Wuji, Li Changsheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"By the way, Senior, have you made any progress on the antidote to the golden silkworm poison that I asked you to help research?"
Xie Chen took out a jade porcelain bottle and handed it over.
"I've refined a semi-finished product. How about you take a look at the results first?"
Li Changsheng poured the elixir from the jade porcelain bottle into his palm and looked at it carefully.
Judging from the appearance, it is basically the same as the antidote Qingying gave him.
“It looks good!”
"By the way, Senior, I have one more favor to ask of you!"
Xie Chen asked, "What's the matter?"
Li Changsheng said, "Senior, do you have any nourishing foods like ginseng and ganoderma? Give me some!"
Hearing that Li Changsheng wanted to come to him to ask for money again, Xie Chen immediately looked at him vigilantly as if he was guarding against a thief.
"Do you think those wild ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum just fell from the sky?"
Li Changsheng smiled and said, "I bought it with silver, I'm not asking for it for free!"
After hearing this, Xie Chen's expression eased a little and he muttered something casually.
"That's pretty much it!"
Li Changsheng searched his body but only found a dozen taels of silver.
Seeing this, Xie Chen asked, "You're not planning to use these dozen taels of silver to buy my ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum, are you?"
Li Changsheng showed an awkward but polite smile and said, "Senior, how about this? I'll write you an IOU first!"
"Okay, okay, it'll save you from disturbing my sleep!"
Xie Chen muttered impatiently and turned to go inside to get the ginseng.
After waiting for about a cup of tea, he came out again.
He was holding a thousand-year-old ginseng in his hand, which made Li Changsheng's eyes light up.
In addition, Xie Chen also wrote out a prescription and picked a few herbs and handed them over.
"I think you have a bit of kidney deficiency. These medicines can really replenish your body!"
When Li Changsheng heard this, his expression instantly darkened.
I don't know if it's a psychological effect or some other reason.
He actually felt a dull pain in his waist for some unknown reason.
Alas, I was almost drained dry by the Empress. How could I not feel weak?
……
At the same time, in the cold palace:
The Fragrant Concubine Yuqiangwei was calmly beating the wooden fish in the cold and quiet hall.
A lot of things have happened recently. First, the Jiang family plotted a coup, but was crushed by the young emperor with thundering means.
Even her old rival, Queen Mother Jiang Nanfeng, had lost her power and was imprisoned in Gratitude Temple.
At the beginning, she learned that Jiang Nanfeng had fallen from power and was imprisoned by the little emperor.
I feel extremely happy in my heart.
I think this is God’s will.
But after a burst of excitement, I felt bored again.
She and Jiang Nanfeng had been fighting each other since before they entered the palace.
The struggle lasted for twenty years, both inside and outside the palace, openly and secretly.
But in the end, neither of them was the final winner.
When I wake up in the middle of the night and think of these past events, I can't help but smile bitterly.
Then, King Zhao raised an army to purge the court of corrupt officials and was leading an army of 300,000 to the city of Luodu.
When Yu Qiangwei thought of King Zhao, the man who tricked her from Miaojiang to Jiuzhou immediately emerged in her mind.
At that time, I was still 28 years old and naively believed his promise.
I originally thought that we could be together for the rest of our lives, a perfect couple that everyone envied.
But in the end, she found out that she was just a pawn in his fight for power.
But even though she was hurt badly, she still couldn't help but think of that unfaithful man on a rainy afternoon.
Moreover, she foolishly found various excuses to justify his betrayal and ruthlessness.
"rose!"
Just when Yu Qiangwei was in a trance, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice suddenly came floating on the wind.
Yu Qiangwei looked up subconsciously.
She only saw the figure she had been thinking about day and night.
Walking towards him slowly.
Yu Qiangwei was worried about herself, thinking that she was missing him too much and had hallucinations.
I rubbed my eyes hard and tried a new way to open them.
The result remains the same!
"Yingguang, is it really you?"
The person who came was none other than King Zhao Yingguang.
He looked at the Jade Rose in front of him.
Although twenty years have passed, time has not left any trace on her face, and her appearance is still as beautiful as ever.
"Rose, I'm back!"
