Chapter 455: Storm in Fengtian Hall
"Is that so? Can it be done?"
Zhao Yu looked at Meng holding the heavenly medicine and asked cautiously.
"It should be possible, but it will take some time." Meng looked at the heavenly medicine in the cup and nodded without hesitation.
Hearing this, Zhao Yu's brows relaxed. This thing is very important for his future plans.
"Sir, if there's nothing else to do, I'll just..."
Meng blushed slightly, looked at Zhao Yu and whispered.
"Okay, get some rest early, we have to go on the road tomorrow morning." Zhao Yu seemed not to hear the implication of the dream, nodded and said straightforwardly.
Dream:……
In the middle of the night, a man and a woman were alone in the same room, really just to study this dark stuff?
…
Early the next morning, everyone was on the road again, heading straight to the capital.
While heading to the capital, Zhao Yu also received several messages from the letter falcon.
At the beginning of the new dynasty, Hangzhou was flooded, droughts continued throughout the nine provinces including Datong, and locusts were raging in the hinterland of the Central Plains...
Although the imperial court repeatedly arranged for disaster relief, the treasury was empty and there was no surplus food in Taicang.
Zhao Yu guessed that if he hadn't put down 90% of the gold and jewelry shells in his system backpack when he left, there might not have been an invasion by foreign barbarians, and the border guards would have mutinied first.
But things are not much better now. Someone in Tongguan set up flags to encourage the victims to rebel. Then mobs appeared in Bashu and other places.
If Jiang Yuyan hadn't used the Talisman of Life and Death to control most of the civil servants, generals, and gentry bosses of the previous dynasty, these guys might have been unable to tolerate it now.
"Mom, this..."
Seeing the news from Xin Falcon, Zhao Yu couldn't help but feel dizzy.
Judging from this state, the King Xin in his memory can still reign for eighteen years, which is not easy!
The new emperor Jiang Yuyan has been on the throne for less than a year, and the world is already riddled with holes.
According to this situation, if there is another year and a half, even if Jiang Yuyan has the best hands and eyes, the new dynasty may be completely dead.
"I hope this boy Afa can give me a big surprise..."
After seeing the news from Xin Falcon these days, Zhao Yu could only place part of his hope on Afa.
After all, as long as there is a big breakthrough in Afa, things like the new dynasty just around the corner will not be so difficult.
The group of people worked hard and finally saw the majestic city gate of the capital five days later.
When everyone just entered Xizhimen, they saw a group of guards guarding an eunuch wearing brocade robes who was delivering the order quickly approaching.
"Master Zhao, His Majesty declares that you will come to the palace immediately to see him!"
The eunuch stood respectfully in front of Zhao Yu, holding an imperial edict in his hands.
"Thank you, father-in-law."
Zhao Yu accepted the imperial edict with a faint smile, then turned to Erha and said, "Take them back to the Earl's Mansion first."
"Don't worry!" Erha nodded and responded.
Zhao Yu followed them to the outside of Chengtian Gate under the guidance of the eunuch who passed the order.
Now that he entered Chengtian Gate, he no longer had to worry about being dragged to the side hall and searched by those young eunuchs.
The eunuch who conveyed the order bowed forward to lead the way, while Zhao Yu walked behind, full of thoughts.
After passing the Dragon Road, we came all the way to the outside of Fengtian Hall.
Before the eunuch who passed the order could enter the palace to report, Lianxing had already been waiting outside the palace for a long time.
The middle door of Fengtian Hall was slowly pushed open. Zhao Yu, who was standing outside the hall, immediately saw the woman in dragon robe on the Nine Dragons steps.
Tsk tsk...
Although this was not the first time he saw Jiang Yuyan wearing a dragon robe, every time he saw this scene, Zhao Yu could not help but feel a little drawn in his heart.
"See Your Majesty!"
Zhao Yu stepped into Fengtian Hall and saluted Jiang Yuyan, who was sitting on the dragon chair with an obviously excited expression.
Jiang Yuyan did not answer, while Yao Yue, who was standing by the side, bowed down the Kowloon steps and waved to the maids and eunuchs waiting in the palace.
With a tacit understanding, everyone followed the new emperor's personal attendant and exited the Fengtian Palace.
Not long after, only Jiang Yuyan and Zhao Yu were left in the entire hall.
"Son..."
After everyone left, Jiang Yuyan, who was wearing a dragon robe, stood up and walked down the Nine Dragons steps. When she came to Zhao Yu, she gave a soft call naturally.
Looking at Jiang Yuyan, who was wearing a dragon robe, but her eyes were filled with haggardness, Zhao Yu's heart moved slightly.
The hall was silent, and both of them could hear each other's heartbeats at this moment.
For some reason, Zhao Yu felt a rush of hot air from his lower abdomen to the sky, and his breathing gradually became rapid.
At this moment, Jiang Yuyan's eyes were no longer as cold as when she faced courtiers in the past. The pressure from all sides over the past few days was intertwined with her obsession and resentment towards the person in front of her.
Zhao Yu slowly stretched out his hand and touched Jiang Yuyan's cheek.
However, Zhao Yu, whose martial arts cultivation had reached its peak, was still trembling slightly at the hand he stretched out.
The moment those warm fingers touched her cheek, Jiang Yuyan's whole body felt like an electric shock.
In the Fengtian Hall, on the large dragon chair, the dragon robes were messy and full of spring.
Outside the Fengtian Palace, Lianxing and Yaoyuefen were guarding the gate. Whether they were serving eunuchs or guards with swords, they were all driven elsewhere.
"Animals..."
An hour later, Yao Yue, who could still vaguely hear the movement in the hall, muttered something in a low voice.
Lian Xing, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but chuckle when she saw the look of disgust on her formerly domineering sister.
In the Fengtian Hall, on the dragon throne.
Jiang Yuyan, half-body still wearing a dragon robe, nestled in Zhao Yu's arms.
At this moment, Zhao Yu was half-lying on the dragon chair, looking at the beautiful woman in his arms, feeling indescribably refreshed.
You can't hold this thing in, otherwise sooner or later something will go wrong!
After a storm, Zhao Yu felt that his inner breath cultivation seemed to be showing signs of breaking through.
"By the way, I almost forgot about the real thing!"
Just when the two of them were still feeling warm, Zhao Yu seemed to suddenly remember something, and then he moved one hand, and a jade bottle appeared in his palm.
"This is specially brought to you..."
Zhao Yu took the jade bottle and handed it to Jiang Yuyan mysteriously.
"This is?"
Through the jade bottle, Jiang Yuyan saw that it contained red liquid.
Zhao Yu did not answer, but smiled lightly and motioned for Jiang Yuyan to take it.
Jiang Yuyan was just stunned for a moment, and then poured the contents of the jade bottle into her mouth without hesitation.
If the young master wanted to harm her, he would not have taken the risk of offending the previous prince and rescued himself from the fire pit when he was in Huixian Yaxu.
What Zhao Yu gave to Jiang Yuyan was the phoenix blood that Zhao Yu extracted from the blood of Emperor Shitian with the help of Meng's ability on the way to the capital.
Although the quantity of this phoenix blood is not large, it is somewhat of a guarantee for Jiang Yuyan today.
"Hey..."
Who would have known that after Jiang Yuyan took the phoenix blood, her face quickly turned red and her whole body became extremely hot again.
In the main hall, the sound of wind and rain started again.
Yao Yue, who was guarding outside the main hall, could not help but look into the hall in surprise at this moment.
Chapter completed!
