Otherworldly Days

Chapter 483

The weather in midsummer is getting hotter and hotter, the sun is shining on the ground, and the temperature is getting higher and higher. There has been no rain in the Northland for several months. The ears of the crops planted here are shriveled and grainless, and the yellow crops are dying one by one, and there is not a drop of rain in the sky.

The old grandma who was sitting in the field was crying, her heart breaking with each cry.

God doesn't give people a way to live, the imperial government imposes heavy taxes, and the landlord's family will come to collect rent soon.This year's land has not been harvested. Where did the food come from for the officials and the landlord's house!Apart from crying that God doesn't give people a way to live, Grandma doesn't know how to live this day.

Bad news was sent to the court one after another. The north was drought and there was no harvest, and the south was flooded, submerging tens of thousands of hectares of fertile fields, and countless people died. The flood washed away the houses of the people and made them homeless.

The treasury of the imperial court was empty, and the imperial court could not even distribute the silver taels for disaster relief.There are countless corrupt officials underneath, eating up the territory of the Feng Dynasty like moths. If this continues, even if there is no natural or man-made disaster, sooner or later, the Feng Dynasty will perish.

The news of He Cheng's fall spread to the court. Emperor Yongkang couldn't breathe, and fell on the dragon chair clutching his chest. The courtiers below were in a mess.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

"Your Majesty, please wake up."

"Hurry up and tell the doctor!"

"Preaching the Imperial Physician..."

There was chaos in the court hall, the Eighth Prince suppressed the flustered officials, scolded, and ordered the palace servants to help the emperor, and asked the palace servants to invite the imperial physician over.

The eldest prince, Feng Lingcheng, was tremblingly crying and calling his father, while the young seventh prince, Feng Linglan, stood below at a loss.It was His Royal Highness Yi Wang who went forward and carried his father out of the hall, onto the dragon chariot.

It wasn't until this time that the ministers of the court realized that His Highness King Yi was so tall that he could carry the aged emperor onto the dragon chariot without any effort.

Some old ministers even thought in their hearts, their Feng Dynasty needs such a powerful king, if His Royal Highness King Yi becomes the next king of their Feng Dynasty, why not?It’s just that His Royal Highness King Yi’s appointment as the crown prince is probably not in line with the etiquette system. The thought of this kind of thought flashed by and passed quickly.

All the officials chased behind the dragon chariot to the emperor's bedroom.

In the battle of Hecheng, Feng Lingrui, the commander in chief, misdirected and fell into the trap of Zinu, which resulted in the loss of Hecheng.In the end, less than [-] of the [-] soldiers and horses were left, and His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince withdrew from Hecheng with the remaining soldiers and horses.

There are green hills in the reserved land. I am not afraid that there will be no firewood, and life will be gone. How can we talk about the future?If it falls into the hands of Nazunu, his life will really be lost!

It's just that the people in that city are pitiful. Those who didn't have time to escape were trapped in Hecheng and became the hands of Zinu.This time, Zinu captured Hecheng and entered the city, looting the people's gold and silver property and looting food.

Fortunately, this time Zinu captured Hecheng and did not massacre the people of the whole city like the one at Zhenmenguan, but reduced all the people here to their slaves.

Probably the barbaric Zinu can also understand that if all the people of the Feng Dynasty are killed, even if they get the Feng Dynasty, there will be no one in this country, and it cannot be called a country, so they changed this time. He came up with a strategy, intending to turn all the people of the Feng Dynasty into their slaves, to be owned by them, and to be used by them.

Slaves are people who have lost their freedom in life and let themselves be driven, which is nothing but pitiful.

It's better to be alive than to be dead; it's just that sometimes, living is more painful than dying.

The things that are on paper are moved to this battlefield, and the battlefield is changing rapidly. How can the knowledge on paper be compared?His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince was proud, conceited, and determined to go his own way. It was not surprising that He Cheng was taken away by Zi Nu in Feng Lingrui's hands, as if it had been doomed long ago.

The army of the Feng Dynasty was defeated steadily by the army of Zi Nu, and Zi Nu was already so powerful that one could equal ten, like a wolf like a tiger, he wanted to annex the entire Feng Dynasty.

After the loss of Hecheng, within a month, Fengchao lost two more cities one after another. The morale of the Zenu army, which fought all the way and won all the way, was greatly improved. The Fengchao army was beaten and retreated steadily. When the fight came over, the legs and feet were so frightened that they were so weak, how could they fight Zinu?

Zinu's army marched straight to Fengdu, with the intention of taking Fengdu and seizing Fengchao.

If Nazinu becomes the emperor, the Feng Dynasty will probably perish, and history will be rewritten.

The news of He Cheng's loss spread back to the court. Emperor Yongkang, who was already in poor health and worked day and night for state affairs, collapsed in a rage.For a moment, the ministers of the DPRK and China felt uneasy, what would they do if Zinu really called?

"Princess Feng, Imperial Physicians Wang, hurry up, please come inside."

Soon, the old imperial doctor Feng hurried over with many other imperial doctors from the imperial hospital, and was invited into the emperor's bedroom.

The emperor's bedroom is full of bright yellow, the eight princes, the left and right prime ministers, several veteran officials in the court, and several princes are all guarding here.On the dragon bed carved with golden dragons, the unconscious emperor lay there, covered with a bright yellow quilt, his lips were pale and bloodless.

Seeing old doctor Feng go in, all the people guarding inside gave way one after another. Old doctor Feng stepped forward to feel the pulse of the emperor with a serious expression on his face.

Feng Zhenglun, the son of the old imperial physician Feng, the young imperial physician Feng Zhenglun in the imperial hospital also followed behind his father. It was the first time that he watched the old emperor lying on the dragon bed at such a close distance, his body was already exhausted. , It is such an old and immortal thing that has occupied his most beloved beauty, so that he cannot recognize the person he loves the most and their children when they meet.

A cold light flashed in the depths of his eyes, wishing he could kill the person lying on the dragon bed at this time!

It's just that he can't, it's not the time yet.There is the entire Feng family behind him, he can't let the Feng family be buried with Feng Zhenglun, and he can't let his most beloved person and child have no one to rely on in this deep palace.

"Old Doctor Feng, how is Your Majesty's health?" The Eighth Prince stood beside his imperial brother's bed with a worried expression on his face.

There are so many nasty things in this deep palace, the relationship between father and son, brothers killing each other, the nobles and beauties in the harem compete with all means, and there are not many souls in this harem.Old doctor Feng has been an imperial doctor in this palace for most of his life, he has never seen anything before, and he has a good idea of ​​what the emperor's body is like.

It's just that what should be said, what should not be said, and what should be said, old doctor Feng must first have a sense of proportion.

The old doctor Feng's answer was also quite satisfactory, it probably meant that His Majesty was overworked, his qi and blood were weak, and he wanted to take a good rest and recuperate, then he backed out and said, "It's better to let Doctor Wang come and take His Majesty's pulse to see how it goes."

This is to give other people a chance, and it is true that everyone should take care of it together. If something really happens, it will not only be held to his head.The so-called law does not blame the public, this gives others a chance, but also saves one's own life.

"Fourth brother." Feng Linglan stood beside Feng Lingxiao, even though he was not close to his father since he was a child, now seeing his father lying unconscious on the bed, he was very anxious.

There was no expression on Feng Lingxiao's face, it was as calm as a mountain.

Feng Linglan has liked his fourth brother since she was a child, and now she also regards him as a kind of support. Seeing his fourth brother's calm expression, her flustered heart is at peace for a moment.

If his father really fell at this time, Zi Nu would come to fight. The prince has not been determined yet, and I am afraid that there will be another fight at that time.If they were fighting for the throne at this time, it would give Zinu an opportunity. Their Feng Dynasty is really about to perish.

The country is gone, and these princes have become slaves to the subjugated country, which is really pitiful.

Among them, Feng Linglan supported his fourth brother as the prince in his heart. If his fourth brother became the prince and became the emperor in the future, Zi Nu would never dare to invade their Feng Dynasty, and had to send a large army to arrest Zi Nu. I drove back to the grassland, and drove to the other side of the Tianshan Mountains, and I will never dare to invade their Feng Dynasty!

"Don't worry, the imperial physicians are here, I believe the imperial physicians have their own solutions." Feng Lingxiao could not hear the slightest panic in his tone, he believed that the imperial physicians had their own solutions.

It's just that he also understands in his heart that his father's body can last until now, relying on the elixir from Li Shan, otherwise he would have died of the serious illness in the cold winter, how could he survive until now? .

The imperial physicians from behind stepped forward one by one, and the results of their diagnoses were almost the same. The imperial physicians who survived in the palace were more cunning than one, and they spoke and did everything without leaking, so that people could not find any mistakes in them.

After some discussion, the imperial physicians prescribed a prescription, which was nothing more than a medicine for invigorating qi and nourishing the body, which was quite satisfactory.It is true that His Majesty's body needs to be well adjusted, but these imperial physicians also understand that at this age, His Majesty's physical problems are accumulated by the sun and the moon, and it may be difficult to cure.

These imperial physicians knew that the emperor had been seriously ill for several times, and it was really unknown how long this body would last. .

The ministers outside the palace were waiting anxiously. The old ministers lifted their clothes and knelt down on their knees, kowtowing to the heavens, saying that they would bless their Majesty and keep them safe...

Don't worry about your majesty, if your majesty has something to do at this time, their Feng Dynasty will really be gone!
