After late spring, the air gradually became more dry, but the weather was most volatile, and occasionally drizzled, and the cool and heat were intertwined, making it most likely to get sick.

However, this disease will never be found in the body of a practitioner. Unless a practitioner is seriously injured and his physical condition is the most weak, the disease will take advantage of the situation.

Therefore, the existence of a pharmacist not only solves the hidden diseases accumulated by practitioners over the years, or the physical damage caused by problems in practice. When the practitioner is the weakest, he is plagued by illness and can respond to it in normal times, but if he is not lucky, it may also be fatal, which is equivalent to an incurable disease for ordinary people.

Illness can disturb the practitioner's qi sea and make it impossible for practitioners to heal themselves. Although this situation is rare, it does exist. Therefore, the Medicine King Valley is highly respected by practitioners.

The Queen fell ill.

Ordinary people and even some practitioners do not know that the Empress is also a practitioner.

But only a few people know the specific realm of the Empress.

The love between His Majesty the Emperor and the Empress is well known to the whole country. Although the fact that taking concubines is inevitable for every emperor, there is only the Empress in his eyes from beginning to end. Therefore, although there are beauties in the harem, the descendants of the royal family are very scarce.

The position of the Prince of the East Palace is still empty.

It was a big deal for the Empress to get sick. The Medicine King Chenru hurried to the capital in the early morning and entered the palace to meet the saint.

No one knew what happened in the palace, but since even the Medicine King came in person, I think there would be nothing wrong with the Empress.

The Medicine King Chenru is the world's number one medicine master and is also a great monk who has entered the threshold of the five realms. He personally takes action and can pull anyone back from the gates of hell if he is not a dead person.

It was not until dusk that His Majesty the Emperor had the opportunity to talk to the Medicine King Chenru alone in the imperial study.

"What happened to Ling'er? Why did he suddenly get sick?"

His Majesty's face looked very bad. He stayed with the Queen on the sickbed. The so-called care was a mess, and he was already feeling physically and mentally exhausted.

The Medicine King Chenru was silent for a moment, thinking about his words, and said, "Your Majesty, be at ease. The Empress is in good health, but there are only some minor problems."

"Originally, it would be impossible to get sick unless you reach the age of twilight. But the blame is that the Empress suffered a cold. Not to mention a practitioner, this disease is not considered a serious illness even among ordinary people. As long as you don't encounter a quack doctor, you will not be in danger of life. But because of this, this situation is surprising."

His Majesty the Emperor looked at the Medicine King Chenru with dissatisfaction and said, "You said it was just a small problem, and you said that this situation is difficult to see. What is Ling'er's condition? Is it serious or light? Is there a solution?"

With the identity of the Medicine King Chenru and his cultivation level at the fifth level, even the Emperor is very fond of it, but the Emperor's tone becomes unpolite if it is related to the Empress.

The Medicine King Chenru naturally did not feel resentful because of this, but pondered for a moment and said with a serious expression: "There was a precedent in this situation, and the Weichen once suspected it for a while, but with further observation, it became more and more certain that although the Empress herself had only had a minor illness, if it was related to those things, this matter became extraordinary."

He stepped forward and whispered to His Majesty the Emperor, then saw that His Majesty's face suddenly changed.

He looked straight at the Medicine King Chenru and said with a gloomy face: "Are you sure?"

Medicine King Chenru nodded and said, "I dare not speak out, but I am almost certain."

Upon hearing this, His Majesty the Emperor was sad for a moment, and then said, "How did Ling'er get infected? Why is it okay for me?"

Chenru, the medicine king, thought: "If someone wants to be unfavorable to the royal family and deliberately choose the Empress, the most cherished Empress, His Majesty, his sinister heart is obvious. The completion of the steps alone is not easy to do. This kind of thing should require a lot of auxiliary factors. The weather is hot and cold, which makes the Empress infected with the cold wind and cold, but is only the cause of its outbreak."

"And the defenses in the palace are very strict, and they can hide the Queen's perception and do this silently. If the enemy is neither strong enough to ignore the rules of the world, or is extremely cautious in doing things, it must not be a matter of one day or one night, but a premeditation."

When he thought of the mysterious people hiding in the palace, which may be months or years, targeting the queen all the time, His Majesty the Emperor felt a numbness on his back.

The main thing that happened was the queen. His Majesty the Emperor could not maintain his normal majesty, and even his mood was a little confused. How could he not feel afraid?

If the Medicine King Chen Ru had not happened to be in the Medicine King Valley and was very close to the capital, the spy from Tianshu Court immediately informed that the Empress might have died at this time.

"If it was really a matter of people outside the mountain who were sealed in the wasteland and snowy mountains, how did they come to our capital? Even lurking beside me? Are the spies in Tianshu Courtyard eating shit?"

His Majesty the Emperor couldn't help but swear.

He immediately announced the order and summoned Jiang to listen to the rain into the palace.

At this time, in Tongming Lane, Jiang Tingyu was staring at Li Mengzhou in front of him with wide eyes.

"You said you were asked to get at least one second place in the Panlong Banquet, but you really only got the second place."

A few days after the Panlong Banquet ended, this was the first time Jiang Tingyu saw Li Mengzhou again. The words he kept in his heart finally came out. Li Mengzhou said sincerely: "The head of Jiang Yuanshou did not say that he had to get the first place. I strictly abide by my promise. Why bother with this?"

Jiang Tingyu glared at him angrily and said, "You have stood in front of the threshold of the four realms. Next, you will practice well and strive to cross that threshold as soon as possible. Otherwise, you will be destined to be a small person. The so-called reputation at the moment will only become a stumbling block for you. Don't be proud of it."

Li Mengzhou shook his head and said firmly: "Although I am very grateful to the head of the hospital for his instructions, I am not so proud of this."

The threshold of the four realms is the obstacle that must be crossed in front of him. Only by crossing that threshold can he truly be qualified to stand in this world, and the path he wants to take is far more than this threshold that blocks it.

He wanted to cross that threshold more than anyone else.

But he knew very well that this matter was in a hurry.

The only thing you can do is to calm your mind and do your best to do it.

"Xu Hexian may still cause trouble for you. Be careful yourself. I can't stand behind you all the time."

Jiang Tingyu was very satisfied with Li Mengzhou's attitude. He was unwilling to let Li Mengzhou die halfway. Although it was just because of suspicion and had evidence that he could be confident, it was not the truth after all. He never gave up on the investigation of Li Mengzhou's identity.

The reason why he didn't ask Li Mengzhou directly was that he still believed that Li Mengzhou's identity was what he thought. So based on this point, it would be better to develop according to the original situation. Otherwise, Li Mengzhou would have a lot of trouble.

Jiang Tingyu only needs to be able to confirm by himself, and he doesn’t have to get Li Mengzhou’s confirmation.

Li Mengzhou remembered Xu Hexian's intentional targeting him on the fifth floor. Although Xu Hexian had no choice but to do anything because there were many big names present, even so, he still made things difficult for him in a bad way, which clearly proved Xu Hexian's attitude towards him.

Although he is a disciple from the inner courtyard of the palace, he is only a three-level small sword cultivator. It is impossible to get a wrestle with the head of the dignified Xuanzhengsi.

Li Mengzhou did not ask why Jiang Tingyu was so good to him, because he once asked once, and Jiang Tingyu's answer seemed to have no answer, and obviously there was no way to get an accurate answer. Even though Li Mengzhou had some doubts, the facts proved many times that Jiang Tingyu did not have any bad intentions towards him.

He doesn't want to care about these things anymore, as long as he keeps a clear mind in his heart.

The closer he got to the threshold of the four realms, the clearer Qin Chengyi's appearance that came to his mind.

It was the clearest face I could see in the sea of ​​fire covered by heavy snow. Although he was very young at that time and often forgot the appearance of that face, he would jump out on his own at some point until he was sure of the identity of the face, the fusion of the two pictures became even more unforgettable.

Qin Chengyi is not only the most powerful person in Jiang Kingdom except His Majesty, but also a very strong practitioner. Even if he crosses the threshold of the four realms, he is still not qualified to confront Qin Chengyi. He can only continue to be cautious and silently strengthen himself before Qin Chengyi noticed it.

While Li Mengzhou and Jiang Tingyu were drinking at Tongming Lane, the gate of the courtyard was suddenly knocked on, and they were very eager to knock.

As Jiang Tingyu raised his hand, the gate of the courtyard opened wide and soldiers rushed in. The first was the eunuch in the palace who came anxiously, "Head of Jiang Yuan, Your Majesty is urgently summoned!"

......

Li Mengzhou sat by the pond and looked at Jiang Tingyu silently leaving with the eunuch and the guard's soldier. A hurried look appeared in his eyes.

Qingyi pushed the door from the main hall, held a few plates of side dishes in his hand, placed them on the stone table in front of Li Mengzhou, and said, "I haven't eaten yet, let's go together."

Li Mengzhou looked at him strangely and said, "Why didn't you come out to eat just now?"

Qing Yi said lightly: "That's because the head of the hospital is here, and I am not qualified to sit next to the head of the hospital to have dinner together."

Li Mengzhou thought, that he was quite honored.

"Your Majesty urgently summons the first place to enter the palace. Do you know what's going on?"

Li Mengzhou looked at Qing Yi who was pouring wine and asked curiously.

Qingyi's movement paused slightly, picked up the newly brought wine cup and drank it all, and said, "Maybe there were some problems in Tianshu Courtyard. Although Your Majesty and the head of the court have always been very good, the situation this time is a bit different. The head of the court may be punished when entering the palace."

Li Mengzhou looked at him in surprise and said, "What problems can happen in Tianshu Courtyard?"

Qing Yi looked back at him faintly and said, "The Tianshu Court was established by His Majesty and the head of the court. The members of the Tianshu Court will always be loyal to His Majesty. The existence of the head of the court is just that there will be no problem in managing the Tianshu Court. In fact, the power in his hands is not as good as the ministers in the court. But over time, it is impossible to verify whether the Tianshu Court is loyal to His Majesty or the head of the court."

"But the head of the court is very loyal to Your Majesty, and Your Majesty also believes in the head of the court. Even if there were any ministers who had made some moves due to this, they could not shake His Majesty and the head of the court. That's because Tianshu Court never had any problems, and it was the sharpest sword in His Majesty's hand."

"But now there is a problem with this sword. Even if His Majesty is willing to forgive the head of the court, the ministers in the court will not miss this opportunity, especially those headed by Xu Hexian."

Li Mengzhou didn't know much about the things in the court, but he could also understand what Qingyi said. Jiang Tingyu's status in the court depends entirely on whether His Majesty the Emperor trusted him as always. Once a crack appeared, even if there was only a trace of signs, Jiang Tingyu would be in a very embarrassing situation.

He didn't expect that a person like Jiang Tingyu would have difficulty walking in the court and could be trapped in a place that would never be restored at any time.

The practitioners who are free and easy in the world are indeed much more comfortable than the temple.

However, although the world is a little more happy, it is always in danger of death. It is not the case in the temple. In fact, there is no big difference between the two. They both want to survive in intrigue.

But the rules in the temple are indeed more restrictive and more difficult.

"What's wrong with Tianshu Courtyard?"

Qing Yi's words never touched on the real point. The reason why His Majesty the Emperor distrusts Jiang Tingyu must be enough to disintegrate the trust between them. Otherwise, the question of who is loyal to Tianshu Yuan alone should be the danger of distrust breaking out early.

Although he always had some doubts about Jiang Tingyu, Li Mengzhou could not deny Jiang Tingyu's help to him. He learned that Jiang Tingyu might have difficulties and could not be completely indifferent.

Qing Yi was silent for a moment and said, "You should have heard of the Queen's illness, right?"

Although the Empress was sick, it was not known to everyone in the city, but because of His Majesty's excessive care and the palace guards escorting the Medicine King Chenru into the palace, many people also saw it. Li Mengzhou naturally heard of it, but he didn't care too much.

"Is this matter related to the Queen's illness? But what does this matter have to do with Tianshu Court?"

Li Mengzhou became more and more puzzled.

It is difficult for normal people to involve these two things. Even if the queen is noble, she cannot take down a large institution in the court just because she is sick. Even a foolish monarch can rarely do such things.

Besides, even if His Majesty the Emperor is not a wise ruler, he has nothing to do with the foolish ruler.

Qing Yi said: "The Empress did not suffer from an ordinary disease, but had an external force penetrated into the Empress's body, and then penetrated into the sea of ​​breath, repelling the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth. At the least, the cultivation level of the whole body was completely destroyed, and at the worst, the life might endanger."

"The information of Tianshu Court is the most powerful in Jiang's Kingdom and is also the best among the entire world's dynasty. The Queen's illness must be caused by man, but Tianshu Court did not notice any problem, which was a great negligence, which was the biggest problem that arose for Tianshu Court."

If you can quietly infect the Queen's Qihai, you must be the ones who follow the Queen, or you can easily get close to the Queen, but no matter who did it, Tianshuyuan did not accurately capture the problems of who was in the palace. This problem is very serious.

Although the main courtyard of Tianshu Court is outside the palace, and except for His Majesty the Emperor, no one knows where Tianshu Court is in the capital, of course there will be spies from Tianshu Court in the palace, with the purpose of protecting the nobles in the palace. The details of the Medicine King Chenru treating the Empress were learned by the spies as soon as possible, and His Majesty the Emperor had known about Jiang Tingyu for a long time.

But they did not find any problems with the people around the Queen, which has to be said to be the biggest blow to their self-confidence.

The existence of Tianshu Academy is extremely important.

If there is no accurate source of information, it will only be a tragic situation until the enemy hits the door.
