Chapter 635: The Final Burst of Energy

~7 min read 1,364 words

The clamor at the scene.

Came to an abrupt halt.

Everyone looked at Xie Tianyao at this moment in disbelief.

Xie Tianyao, who had been in agonizing pain just a moment ago, Xie Tianyao, who had been in such a sorry state, had already straightened his dragon robe and was sitting upright there.

His complexion, which had been deathly pale just a moment ago, now looked rosy and radiant.

Everyone's expression changed drastically.

Could this be the Emperor's final burst of energy before death?

They knelt down one after another.

"Your Majesty! My Emperor!"

"Your Majesty, sob, sob, sob..."

Yangxin Hall was in chaos once again.

Xie Fang was kneeling, already unable to stop his whole body from trembling.

The Imperial Father is about to pass away!

The Imperial Father is about to pass away!

Yes, this must be the final burst of energy before death!

Otherwise, he was in such a state just now... how could he be fine in an instant!

Impossible!

He is about to pass away!

I am about to ascend the throne!

Kneeling on the ground, he crawled toward Xie Tianyao, wailing loudly, his face covered in snot and tears: "Imperial Father, Imperial Father, if you have any last wishes, tell your child..."

The others began to wail again.

Xie Tianyao gave a cold laugh and said nothing.

Xie Fang stood up in anger, pointed at Liu Zheng, and shouted: "Someone, bind this rebellious traitor for this Prince and drag him out to be beheaded!"

That's right.

If he were to ascend the throne, the first person he would kill would be Liu Zheng! This man who made him tremble with fear!

The Imperial Guard also looked at each other in dismay.

Could it really be the final burst of energy before death?

Then who should they listen to at this time?

The sky is about to change!

Longyan is about to change!

The whole hall was wailing.

"Have you cried enough?"

Just then, Xie Tianyao's cold voice rang out.

This voice was full of vigor, not at all like someone who was ill!

Everyone's expression changed again.

Xie Fang continued to cry even more: "Imperial Father, Imperial Father, use less strength when speaking, use a little less... you, you, you..."

Say something serious!

Like letting me inherit the throne or something...

The others were also wiping away their tears.

Every word you say is one less, save your strength so you can say a bit more...

"Hahahaha, hahahaha..."

Xie Tianyao finally couldn't help but burst into loud laughter.

"So, there are so many people hoping for my death, hahahaha..."

Xie Tianyao kept laughing.

He couldn't stop at all.

Something is wrong!

Everyone felt that something was wrong!

How could a final burst of energy last so long!

That Lord Zhang from the Imperial Hospital, his expression changed, and he jumped up from the ground with a start, trembling as he came to Xie Tianyao's side.

Xie Tianyao smiled faintly and held out his arm to him.

"This... this is impossible, this is impossible!"

Lord Zhang took his pulse for a moment, and his expression changed instantly!

The Emperor's pulse was actually completely normal!

Even more vigorous than ever before!

This...

The shock in his heart at this moment was beyond measure.

Xie Tianyao smiled faintly; he naturally knew his own body, and he felt that he was truly full of life at this moment! He wished he could marry that Princess of the Li Dynasty and have a go at it! He laughed aloud: "Love, how about it?"

Seeing Lord Zhang's expression, the others already felt something was wrong. Especially Xie Fang, whose heart sank with a bad premonition.

Lord Zhang reacted extremely quickly, kneeling down with a thud, shouting in wild joy: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty! Heaven protects Longyan, Your Majesty has fully recovered!"

What?

Xie Fang, who was closest to Xie Tianyao, turned deathly pale and retreated in horror.

The others were also stunned, unable to react for a long time.

Recovered?

It wasn't a final flash of brilliance before death?

In other words, the old Emperor was already better?

A bolt from the blue!

"Congratulations to the Emperor, congratulations to the Emperor!"

"Heaven bless Longyan! Heaven bless Longyan!"

"Heaven has eyes!"

Except for Xie Fang, everyone else also immediately followed suit and shouted in unison.

Everyone looked at Liu Zheng in disbelief.

It was him again!

It was him again!

Why was it always this young man who repeatedly created miracles!

Did he even understand medicine?

Liu Zheng took a deep breath.

Recovered...

It was definitely impossible to have recovered...

It was just that under the influence of his medicine, Xie Tianyao would temporarily be free of pain and, furthermore, feel some excitement, which would make his pulse appear stronger and more active...

He also knew that as the dosage increased, one day, Xie Tianyao would still inevitably die from the pain.

But he had no other Method.

He could only try his best to ensure he lived a little longer.

"Hahahaha, hahahaha!"

At this moment, Xie Tianyao truly felt full of vigor and energy; he couldn't help but stand up, stretch his limbs, and then, looking coldly at Xie Fang who was sprawled on the ground, he smiled faintly: "Did I disappoint you? What, can't wait to ascend the throne? Does the Emperor need to abdicate and become the Retired Emperor?"

Xie Fang was scared to death: "Father Emperor, Father Emperor, your son did not mean that, I did not mean that... Father Emperor..."

"Get out!"

Xie Tianyao rebuked angrily.

Xie Fang and the others, as if granted amnesty, scrambled away from the Yangxin Hall in a panic.

"Good, good, good, what a great Prefect Liu!"

"Let me think, how should I reward you, how should I reward you!"

Xie Tianyao was still in a state of excitement.

This was a massive contribution!

It was much more significant than any other gift!

Liu Zheng smiled: "That the Emperor is well is the gospel of Longyan. This humble subject dares not have any inappropriate thoughts."

Xie Tianyao laughed heartily: "Clear rewards and punishments have always been the tradition of Longyan! For this birthday, you have the primary merit, my subject; take advantage of my good mood and state your request. I remind you, do not miss this opportunity!"

Grand Eunuch Zhou, standing to the side, was even winking and gesturing.

Xie Tianyao was rarely this happy!

It was likely that even if Liu Zheng asked to be enfeoffed as a king, Xie Tianyao would not refuse.

Liu Zheng was not stupid; he naturally knew the opportunity was rare.

He was only being falsely modest.

Hearing this, he hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Emperor, this humble subject does not seek to be a king or noble, nor do I seek gold or silver treasures; I only ask the Emperor to grant this humble subject one thing!"

Xie Tianyao smiled: "You were the one who came up with the Longyun Games; if you want me to agree to marry Chan'er to you right now, that won't do—you must rely on your own true ability."

Liu Zheng smiled: "It is not that matter..."

"Then what is it?"

Liu Zheng said earnestly: "This humble subject wishes to boldly ask the Emperor for a Gold Medal of exemption from death!"

As soon as these words were spoken.

Xie Tianyao and Grand Eunuch Zhou both changed color.

Xie Tianyao even said coldly: "Does my subject still remember..."

Liu Zheng explained: "This humble subject will never forget the oath! It is just that in Longyan, I am truly too conspicuous and have many enemies..."

He smiled bitterly: "The reforms in Liangzhou are still at a critical stage, and this humble subject is afraid..."

Xie Tianyao watched Liu Zheng quietly.

Then he smiled: "Does my subject still remember the agreement between you and me?"

Liu Zheng was shaken: "This subject dares not forget! I will do my utmost to assist the Emperor in building a prosperous age!"

Xie Tianyao asked: "How does it compare to the prosperous Tang Dynasty?"

"Surpassing the prosperous Tang!"

"Good, granted!"

Liu Zheng was overjoyed.
