Chapter 914: The Return of Xie Chan

"Cough, cough, cough."

The sound of Xie Tianyao's violent coughing started up once again.

In an instant, the people around him were thrown into a panic once more.

Divine Medicine!

But now, it seemed that no amount of Divine Medicine was of any use.

"Get out, get out, get out, all of you get out!"

Xie Tianyao wanted to struggle, but his body at this moment had already reached a state of extreme frailty.

Divine Medicine.

It was no longer of any use to him.

He had already foreseen his own end.

He feared that this time, he would not be able to return to Jinghua alive.

Remember the website.

Xie Tianyao, now thin as a rail, had eyes that were bulging out, completely devoid of his former dominance and poise.

"Go, go, go, all of you go!"

Seeing this situation, Grand Eunuch Zhou also sighed.

They wanted to discuss something with each other, but were quickly intimidated by the fully armed Imperial Guards nearby.

Blades, swords, and Crossbows were all pointed at them.

Xie Tianyao was in poor health, and this matter naturally could not be spread.

The Imperial Physicians all ran out one by one, fearing that if they angered Xie Tianyao at this moment, their heads would not be safe.

The Track Carriage had long since stopped.

The people outside the Horse Carriage looked at one another, their hearts filled with complex emotions.

They were all recipients of imperial favor, and they did not know what the new era would bring; thus, an atmosphere of sorrow, confusion, and fear filled the scene.

"Lao Zhou, Lao Zhou."

Inside the Horse Carriage, Xie Tianyao was still shouting, drenched in sweat.

These people who had followed Xie Tianyao to inspect the country were also terrified, and their hearts were naturally filled with grief.

Longyan, is the sky about to change?

Is the era belonging to Xie Tianyao about to pass?

Xie Tianyao's voice was already noticeably weak, but he still wanted to shout, to shout with all his might; thus, with every cry, his body would tremble from the excessive exertion.

Grand Eunuch Zhou watched with tears streaming down his face: "No, Emperor, no, no one dares to come."

"The Emperor's prestige still shakes the heavens, the Emperor is still..."

"Emperor, Emperor, this old servant is here."

Grand Eunuch Zhou was covered in tears.

"Is someone coming to kill me? Is it true! Tell me the truth!"

Looking at Xie Tianyao's state, Grand Eunuch Zhou did not know what to say.

Xie Tianyao calmed down for a moment, gasping for air, his eyes hollow.

"Did he die?"

As he spoke, he could not help but choke with sobs.

Xie Tianyao finally relaxed a little, his face sallow, his eyes bulging, his skeletal frame smiling miserably: "Imperial prestige, what imperial prestige? It's all a lie, all a lie. Hahahaha, I don't have many days left, no good days left. What Son of Heaven, what Son of Heaven..."

"Emperor."

If it were anyone else, they certainly would not know who Xie Tianyao was talking about, but Grand Eunuch Zhou knew.

This "he" naturally referred to Liu Zheng.

Grand Eunuch Zhou hesitated to speak.

Suddenly.

A glimmer of light appeared in Xie Tianyao's eyes.

Him?

The scene fell into silence.

Xie Tianyao had nothing to say either, his parched lips, having lost their luster, trembling slightly.

"Hahahahahahahaha!"

"Speak."

Every word Xie Tianyao uttered was dragged out.

Grand Eunuch Zhou was dripping with cold sweat: "No."

"I knew he couldn't die, I knew he couldn't die. Just by relying on you bunch of clowns, you bunch, you could kill him? Hahahaha."

Xie Tianyao laughed very feebly, very palely.

Grand Eunuch Zhou still dared not speak.

Xie Tianyao suddenly began to laugh.

Grand Eunuch Zhou also dared not speak, keeping his head lowered.

"I..."

Xie Tianyao's voice grew weaker and weaker, his breathing became more labored, and his eyes grew increasingly hollow.

Grand Eunuch Zhou's heart sighed repeatedly as well.

Powerless.

"It won't work, you cannot kill him."

"Cannot be killed."

"Even I cannot kill him."

Xie Tianyao, who was on the verge of death, was most worried about Vice Minister Liu at this moment.

Because he knew that only Liu Zheng had the strength to lead the Longyan Dynasty toward an uncertain direction.

"He cannot die."

He was the person closest to Xie Tianyao, so he naturally knew Xie Tianyao's powerlessness at this time.

In such a situation, the first thing he asked about was not whether his son, the Crown Prince Xie Fang, had been found, but rather the situation of Vice Minister Liu.

It was very obvious.

At this moment, Xie Tianyao looked gaunt and pale; at first glance, he looked just like a ghost.

"Emperor."

Grand Eunuch Zhou trembled.

"He cannot die."

Suddenly, Xie Tianyao stood up abruptly.

This action gave Grand Eunuch Zhou a start.

"What?"

Grand Eunuch Zhou's expression changed drastically.

Suddenly.

"Give the order."

Xie Tianyao was silent for a long time before he opened his mouth to continue: "Use every possible Method to ensure Vice Minister Liu's safety!"

"I will not allow anything to happen to him in the Li Dynasty!"

The Emperor had truly figured it out this time.

Xie Chan was at this moment.

She felt a renewed sense of awe for Xie Tianyao.

This sense of awe had nothing to do with the master-servant relationship.

Because she felt.

It was just that this time the honor guard was a bit grand; the Imperial Guards alone numbered three thousand!

"Mother Empress!"

Xie Chan hurriedly dismounted and took a deep breath.

She had already returned to Jinghua.

As soon as she returned here, she felt the tense atmosphere of Jinghua.

The one who had come out of the city to welcome her was none other than Empress Zheng Fu.

Xie Chan nodded without saying a word.

Inside the Phoenix Carriage, the atmosphere instantly went quiet.

Zheng Fu looked at Xie Chan quietly.

Zheng Fu was still graceful and luxurious, but after so much time had passed, she had aged; her once delicate skin now had obvious wrinkles and spots, the kind that even powder could not cover.

"Come up first."

Zheng Fu said indifferently.

Her own ancestral home was also Liangzhou.

At first, she was very awkward, but after interacting with Xie Chan for a period of time, she also began to slowly let go of the grief over the death of her son Xie Ling; she had no choice, she wanted to survive.

"Mother Empress, recently in Jinghua..."

In fact, ever since she took Xie Chan as her stepdaughter, her feelings had been very complicated.

The daughter of Zhai Qing'er, the daughter of her greatest rival, had actually become her stepdaughter; who could stand that? But she knew that the inner palace was just that cruel; if she wanted to oppose Dong Guifei, she had to seek support from a powerful force, and now, the Liangzhou side had undoubtedly become her greatest trump card.

Furthermore.

At this age, she had expressed to herself more than once that all she wanted was to keep on living.

"Xie Ming has already won over many officials, and with the support of the Scholar-officials, he is also beginning to be in his prime; especially in the inner palace, Dong Guifei is becoming more and more arrogant. If you don't return, Mother Empress really won't be able to hold on much longer."

Zheng Fu sighed.

Xie Chan had initially had some resistance toward Zheng Fu, but after getting along later, she slowly felt that she was also a pitiful person.

A person living in the inner palace, surrounded by enemies on all sides.

Furthermore.

"What?"

Xie Chan was startled.

She had not expected that Jinghua had become this complicated.
