Chapter 729: Poisoned (2)


Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation


After hesitating for a while, he stood up.


“Your Majesty, please issue a decree to summon Prince Anyang back to the capital.”


The hall instantly fell silent.


Even the sound of breathing seemed to have disappeared.


Emperor Yan leaned back in his chair weakly and stared at Liu Wuji.


However, he found that his eyes were unfocused.


After a while, Emperor Yan finally gave up. He closed his eyes tiredly and let himself lean against the chair to catch his breath.


After a while, Emperor Yan opened his eyes again. The corners of his mouth curled up into a bitter smile as he looked at Liu Wuji, who was standing not far away, motionless.


“You went to Qings.h.i.+ Town to meet Prince Anyang.” This was not a question, but a statement.


“Yes.” Liu Wuji replied without any intention of hiding anything.


“Has Prince Anyang roped you in?” Emperor Yan asked.


“Yes.” Liu Wuji answered again, still honest.


“Humph, your answer is straightforward.” Emperor Yan suddenly smiled and said in a teasing tone.


“I am loyal to the Great Yan, loyal to the Emperor. When the emperor asks a question, I will naturally answer honestly.” Liu Wuji replied.


Emperor Yan’s expression finally improved when he heard that.


Then, his expression slowly turned solemn.


“My body really can’t take it anymore?” Then, he asked Liu Wuji.


Previously, he had rejected the Imperial Advisor’s request to appoint a crown prince and let the prince oversee the country. He had handed the responsibility of supervising the country to the Imperial Advisor, and the Imperial Advisor had agreed.


That was because although it was difficult to quit the drug, the Imperial Advisor felt that the probability of him successfully quitting the drug was not small, and he would still be able to sit firmly on the throne.


But now…


He had been abstinent for more than ten days, and he knew his own physical condition very well. Not only did the Imperial Advisor lose confidence in him, he was also losing confidence in himself.


The effects of the Life Essence Pill had not been completely eradicated, and now he was poisoned again. In fact, he could understand why the Imperial Advisor was so anxious for him to choose the heir for the Great Yan.


Liu Wuji did not answer immediately.


Instead, he paused for a moment before saying, “if you can endure the remaining 19 days, wait until the medicinal properties of the Life Essence Pill have completely dissipated before detoxifying it. With a peaceful rest, you might have half a year.”


Emperor Yan’s pupils constricted.


After a while, he calmed down.


“At most…only half a year?” Then, he asked Liu Wuji.


“Yes.” Liu Wuji raised his head and glanced at Emperor Yan.


Seeing that Emperor Yan was looking at him, he lowered his head again.


“The prerequisite is that the Emperor can survive the next nineteen days.” Liu Wuji hesitated for a moment before adding.


Emperor Yan instantly lost his strength and let himself lie on the chair.


“Hmph, rather than struggling for another nineteen days to fight for that half a year of lifespan, I…”


However, before he could finish speaking, Emperor Yan stopped on his own.


“Your Majesty, don’t give up so easily.” Liu Wuji said coldly.


Emperor Yan was a little embarra.s.sed when he heard that.


He regretted what he had just said.


As the ruler of the Great Yan, his words were indeed inappropriate.


At this moment, Emperor Yan’s mind was filled with thoughts. He finally remembered his ident.i.ty and responsibilities.


He was the Emperor of the Great Yan. He had been the Emperor for more than twenty years, but he had not made any achievements.


Instead, he had done many wrong things, causing the Great Yan to fall into chaos and to cede territory and pay reparations.


Now, the Chu and Jin forces had not given up on the Yan forces, and the war could break out at any time.


If the Great Yan perished in his hands, how would he face his ancestors when he went underground?


He had never been willing to admit that he was wrong to kill the Nangong Zhan and destroy the Nangong Family. But now that he thought about it, he really regretted it.


Knowing that his days were numbered, he panicked.


He wanted to rebuild the mountains and rivers, and govern the Great Yan again, but he was running out of time.


“How’s the war preparations at the border?” At the thought of this, Emperor Yan asked Liu Wuji.


Liu Wuji was stunned.


Then, he told him the truth.


“In today’s morning court session, Minister of War Liu suggested to let the various fiefs to send troops to the border.”


“This way, not only can we save the imperial court’s troops, but the food and fodder of these soldiers will also be paid for by the various fiefs, which can also save the expenditure.”


“How many people agree?” Emperor Yan asked again.


“The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Revenue are under the greatest pressure. As for the other divisions, there are only a few who oppose it.”


“There are certain hidden dangers when a va.s.sal king leaves his fief with his troops, which is why I have come to Your Majesty.”


Emperor Yan glanced at Liu Wuji, his heart heavy.


“What do you think we should do?” He asked Liu Wuji.


Liu Wuji paused for a moment.


“If it was before, 1 would agree with Lord Liu’s suggestion..”
