Chapter 217 No one outside knows
"If you hadn't told him something, would he have cleared the death energy? He doesn't understand these things. You are from the Xuanmen." Emperor Su Ming snorted coldly. In his opinion, it was her instigation.
"I am innocent." Jiang Yunxi said that she was innocent. This time she did not take the initiative to ask for the removal of the death energy.
"Your Majesty, it was because I heard you say that our ancestors used death energy to select future emperors that I wanted to eliminate it. Let's not talk about the Crown Prince, even a normal person would suffer from poor health if surrounded by death energy all year round."
Zhan Beiyuan said with a serious expression.
"Don't think about this matter anymore, just go back." Emperor Su Ming waved his hand and said.
"I will not give up. I'll take my leave." Zhan Beiyuan said, bowed, turned around, straightened his back and left.
Jiang Yunxi hurriedly followed.
Emperor Su Ming's eyes widened in anger. Looking at his current situation, was he determined to eliminate the deadly aura? He was becoming even more stubborn.
Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Beiyuan left the palace directly.
"Why are you so determined to get rid of the dead energy?" Jiang Yunxi asked.
"Death energy is not a good thing. If it is spiritual energy that nourishes the body, I will definitely not have any idea about it." Zhan Beiyuan said seriously. In his opinion, there is no difference between death energy and evil spirit.
"I want to see the emperor tomorrow." Jiang Yunxi said. What she cared about now was not the deathly aura, but the altar. She always felt that there was some unspeakable secret hidden there.
Zhan Beiyuan glanced at her and said, "Well, I'll go with you."
He also wanted to ask his father about the Eastern Palace.
…
The next day.
Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Beiyuan entered the palace with their children.
The retired emperor smiled happily when he saw them. If they hadn't come, he was planning to ask Qin Fu to invite them into the palace. He knew what happened in the Eastern Palace yesterday.
"Grandfather, we brought you some delicious food." Mo Mo handed over the food box in his hand.
"What is this?" asked the emperor curiously.
"Grandpa Emperor, these meat buns were made by my brother and I," Mianmian said proudly with her rosy face.
The Emperor's eyes widened, his face filled with shock. "You, you can make buns?"
Mianmian nodded, "Try it now."
Momo smiled elegantly and said, "It's delicious."
Jiang Yunxi smiled and said, "Don't worry, your Majesty, it tastes quite good."
The main reason is that when they were in the Taoist temple, they used everyone to practice, and their cooking skills have improved. Now they are no longer dark dishes.
She was not good at cooking, but she knew how to cook many delicious dishes, so she told her son and daughter and asked them to cook them so that they wouldn't get bored.
Zhan Beiyuan has calmed down. When he learned that his son and daughter could cook, he almost dropped his jaw in shock. They were only five years old and still children.
I think of myself when I was five years old, with food coming to me just by opening my mouth and clothes coming to me by stretching out my hand.
Suddenly, he felt very uncomfortable and felt that he owed them and Jiang Yunxi. She had worked so hard to raise the children alone over the years.
Qin Fu quickly stepped forward, took the food box, took out the meat buns inside and placed them on the table.
The emperor didn't even bother to wash his hands and picked up one directly. The bun was white and plump, and you could vaguely see the gravy seeping out. The aroma of meat mixed with the aroma of flour made people swallow their saliva.
He took a bite immediately. The dough was soft and the gravy spread in his mouth. The meat filling was fat but not greasy, lean but not dry, and tasted particularly good.
The key point is the fragrance.
He ate three in one go and praised them highly, but afterwards he felt sad that they could make such delicious buns at such a young age.
It is definitely not possible to make such delicious food overnight. You can imagine how much hardship they have endured.
As soon as Jiang Yunxi saw the expression of the emperor, he knew that he was worried about Mo Mo Mianmian. It was right for him to send them the buns today, wasn't it just to make him feel worried.
A moment.
Qin Fu took Momo and Mianmian to play in the garden outside.
"You came to the palace to see me today because of something, right?" The emperor looked at them with a smile.
"I went to the East Palace last night. There is a secret passage in that small palace. We went underground. I wanted to get rid of the dead air inside." Zhan Beiyuan said straight to the point.
"No, that's the rule established by our ancestors. Even though it's deadly, it has no effect on us." The emperor said without thinking.
"How can there be no impact? The prince is almost dying." Zhan Beiyuan was instantly furious.
The Emperor looked at him and said, "This just proves that the Crown Prince is not suitable to be the next Emperor. In fact, the Emperor told him this a long time ago, but he is unwilling to give up."
Jiang Yunxi: “…”
So she guessed right, the prince was reluctant to give up easily.
He has been weak since childhood. If he is still weak now, he is indeed not suitable to be an emperor. An emperor does not just sit on the throne and do nothing. Instead, he has to worry about all kinds of things and the work intensity is very high.
Without a healthy body, you will not be able to bear the hardship and will die early.
The starting point of the Zhan family's ancestor's screening was correct, but he really shouldn't use death energy. Being surrounded by death energy all year round will definitely lead to early death.
"The prince..." Zhan Beiyuan suddenly didn't know what to say. It turned out that he was unwilling to let go.
"Why don't you go and persuade the prince?" The retired emperor looked at them. He naturally didn't want the prince to rush into danger. The imperial physician said that he was dying.
This kind of thing has happened before. Those who are unwilling to give up but cannot endure it will eventually die in the East Palace.
He didn't want the prince to go down that path.
"I will persuade the prince, but the deathly aura must also be eliminated." Zhan Beiyuan still insisted.
"You...let's talk about this later." The emperor said in a deep voice. The rules set by the ancestors cannot be changed at will.
Jiang Yunxi tugged at Zhan Beiyuan's sleeve, signaling him to stop talking.
Zhan Beiyuan looked at her and didn't refute.
"Your Majesty, do you know that there is a secret room under the East Palace with an altar inside? What is in there?" Jiang Yunxi began to ask her.
She was more interested in this.
"That was specially built by the national master when the country was founded." The emperor said lightly. They were really powerful. They actually broke in there. There was a formation on that stone gate.
He didn't even know how to get in, and he had never been in before.
"Was the national teacher at the time of the founding of the country a southern barbarian?" Jiang Yunxi asked.
The Emperor looked at her and asked, "Do you know Nanman?"
Jiang Yunxi nodded, "I just happened to hear that if it weren't for the Nanman's help, the Tenglong Kingdom wouldn't have been established."
"Nanman was a great benefactor of the Tenglong Kingdom. Later, the founding emperor Shengyuan invited a master from Nanman to be the national teacher of the Tenglong Kingdom. The East Palace was built by this national teacher, who said that it was used to suppress evil spirits." said the emperor.
"What kind of evil spirit?" A strange look flashed across Jiang Yunxi's eyes. After entering there, she did not sense the presence of evil spirits.
The Emperor looked at them and said, "Do you really want to hear it? Don't be afraid if you do. This is something only the Emperor knows. No one else knows it."
Jiang Yunxi frowned, "The word 'fear' doesn't exist in my dictionary."
