But after becoming proud, the old man aged too much overnight, and it was also after that that the root of his illness was laid.
He lives with his wife.
Three years ago, Li Nishang and others caused chaos in the government. The old man cursed at them several times in the court and was demoted again and again. Finally, he became a minor official in the Censorate. However, the old man still did not change his temper. He cursed Li Nishang as a crazy woman who did not know what was good for her, cursed Yang Shanchang as a son of a bitch, and cursed the Eighth Prince as a good-for-nothing.
The curse was very dirty.
The old man was put in jail several times, but he cursed even more fiercely in prison and even wrote poems to curse.
Later, Xia Fengxiang secretly used a method and finally saved the old man's life.
It was not until last year, after Li Nishang was executed, that the old man was reinstated. He finally realized that all this was His Majesty's doing, secretly building up his strength. However, the old man immediately reported it to the emperor. It could not be considered a scolding, but he still gave Xia Fengxiang a lecture.
Very pedantic.
But he was a man of integrity and had nothing to say about Xia Fengxiang or Daxia.
On the Cold Food Festival, according to the old man's current title of Zijin Guanglu Dafu, the Ministry of Revenue deposited some silver.
The old man and his wife used the money to buy some paper money today and just returned to the capital, where they heard about the matter between His Majesty and the Queen.
When he first heard it, the old man was anxious and kept asking why he couldn't just stay in the palace and recuperate.
But later, the old man immediately returned home, changed into the most respectable court dress in his home, took some silver and money, and planned to enter the palace.
Although the old man held a high official position, he actually did not live a wealthy life. He and his wife had been suffering from illness ever since they learned of their son's death. They needed to take medicine all year round. In addition, they had been persecuted in the previous few years, which made their condition worse. Most of their monthly money was used to buy medicine.
That is to say, Xia Fengxiang often asked people to help the old man in secret, so that the old censor Zhang Heng could live a decent life.
The silver and money he brought this time were some that his wife had secretly saved.
Just hearing that he wanted to buy some supplements for the Queen, the Madam was willing to give them all to Zhang Heng.
But in reality, what supplements can you buy with this money?
Zhang Heng went to several stores and bought some dates, walnuts and other things, not a lot, just two small bags.
If it were any other official family, they wouldn't be able to present such a thing.
There were many people entering the palace. After all, there was more than just Zhang Heng who had received Su Changan's favor, and he would not be the only Zhang Heng in the future.
Zhang Heng believed in the Queen's character.
Many people brought things.
The two small packages in Zhang Heng's hands seemed insignificant, even a little ridiculous.
However, Zhang Heng did not take it seriously. He just put the thing in his sleeve and asked people what was going on.
After getting a general understanding, Zhang Heng waited outside Chengtian Gate with others. After all, you can't enter the palace just because you want to.
The officials around were talking angrily about cracking down on Zoroastrianism, or some were asking what gifts others had given to the Empress, or some were concerned about the Empress's health and how she was doing.
Zhang Heng ignored this and just stood there.
That is, when Mu Xu arrived, he asked him, "Do you know how the queen is doing?"
Zhang Heng then shook his head and said, "No news yet."
Then Mu Xu pulled Zhang Heng aside and told him what he had heard from Xun Kuang. Zhang Heng became even more worried after hearing this, but he said nothing. He just carefully held the dates and walnuts, which were extremely precious to him, as if he had finally made up his mind.
……
Su Changan knew that a large number of officials were waiting for news from him and were also thinking about seeing him.
But at this moment, Su Changan could feel the atmosphere in the hall of Lingqi Pavilion. There were ten people in the world, and now there were four sitting in the hall, including Shentu Kuyue.
Willow catkins falling on the mountain.
Sword Saint Yu Taohua.
Liu Fenggu, the owner of Liuyue Manor.
And Shentu Kuyue, who is now the deputy commander of Fengluan Guard.
There is another person, although he is not one of the top ten in the world, he is one of the candidates for the top ten in the world, and he is Lian Xinglan, the leader of Tianzhi Pavilion.
If any one of these people walked out alone, it would be enough to shock the people in the martial arts world, and they would even wonder why this person appeared here.
Not to mention that they are all gathered in this small Lingqi Pavilion.
Even though Su Changan was in the house, he could feel the oppression that Yu Kuangjian, Yan Ruyu, Shentu Sheyue, Zhou Qianhong and others outside were suffering.
One can even feel the nervousness of Xia and others who know the origins of these people.
but
It seemed that because he was injured again, it was more appropriate to have such an atmosphere outside.
But the atmosphere inside the house is actually not better than outside.
Yan Yunxiao and Bao Xian stood beside Su Changan, Zhang Wenjing took his pulse, and Xia Fengxiang frowned and waited for the result.
Su Changan was actually quite embarrassed, mainly because of the blood he spat out, which was not a big deal, but it ended up causing such a big fuss. How was it going to end?
Zhang Wenjing withdrew his hand at this time, frowned, and looked at Yan Yunxiao and Bao Xian: "The Queen's pulse is disordered, which is exactly the same as the pulse of the person you mentioned who was attacked by the inner demon."
Although Zhang Wenjing is not involved in the underworld, as a medical practitioner, even if he is not involved in the underworld, people from the underworld will come to him.
Many of them were the people who had survived the failure of the Heart Demon Bureau, so Zhang Wenjing could naturally find them out.
After hearing what Zhang Wenjing said, Xia Fengxiang became even more nervous.
Yan Yunxiao and Bao Xian also became serious. The matters of the Heart Demon Bureau were no trivial matters.
Su Changan was also stunned for a moment, looking at Zhang Wenjing in surprise, "It's not a backlash."
Su Changan had heard from Luo Changfeng about the backlash of the Inner Demon Bureau. It could be a big deal or a small deal. A small deal could cause lifelong illness and the inability to return to peak strength, or a big deal could cause direct possession.
But I'm fine.
Zhang Wenjing turned around and looked at Su Changan: "This is what I find strange. Your pulse is exactly the same as those of those who have suffered backlash from the Heart Demon Bureau. I am not wrong about this. But your complexion is ruddy, and although your Qi is disordered, it is much better than that of ordinary people. And your previous internal injuries have improved a little, which is why I find it strange."
Hearing this, Yan Yunxiao and Bao Xian behind him looked at Su Changan with strange expressions.
Xia Fengxiang didn't quite understand, but she could tell that Su Changan was fine, which made the empress breathe a sigh of relief. Other things were not important, as long as he was fine.
Bao Xian said, "My Lady, was there anything wrong at that time?"
No one in the room was an outsider, not even Zhang Wenjing, so Su Changan spoke directly: "There's nothing wrong. I just found out it was the Heart Demon Bureau, so I forced myself to suppress it, and then I couldn't help but spit out that blood. But I probably haven't finished it yet. I'm still in the Heart Demon Bureau. This is true."
"As for why, and the fact that I felt much better after spitting out that turbid blood, I don't know either."
……
Chapter 654: Empress: Let me be scolded! You have the nerve to call me wife! ?
There was actually something wrong with what Su Changan said.
At least that's what Yan Yunxiao and Bao Xian heard.
It doesn’t really matter whether a warrior finds himself in the Heart Demon Bureau or not, because from the moment you are in the Heart Demon Bureau, it means that you have to start crossing the Heart Demon Bureau.
It is possible to suppress the inner demon, but it is very difficult to suppress it again after suppressing it once. Also, there is something wrong with spitting out a mouthful of turbid blood after suppressing the inner demon.
According to Zhang Wenjing, the Queen's internal injuries had improved a lot, so it was obvious that the turbid blood might have been vomited out from internal injuries.
This is also where something is wrong.
Because it sounded like Her Majesty had a breakthrough in strength, rather than a backlash from her inner demons.
But the pulse showed signs of the inner demon's backlash.
Zhang Wenjing is not only an imperial physician in the court, but also recognized by the world as a "miracle doctor". Mr. Zhang has saved countless people, and he can walk in the world but no one dares to hurt him. It is also because many people in the world are connected with Zhang Wenjing, and he has saved their lives. How many people in the Heart Demon Bureau have been rescued by Zhang Wenjing. Whether he can save them is one thing, but whether he can judge the pulse is another thing. Therefore, Zhang Wenjing cannot make a mistake in diagnosing the pulse.
Su Changan looked at the puzzled expressions of Yan Yunxiao and Bao Xian, and then spoke: "So, didn't I always say that there was nothing wrong? I can't say how the Heart Demon Bureau is, but it seems that as long as I don't use a knife to fight with anyone, she won't come out."
Yan Yunxiao and Bao Xian's expressions became even more weird. There were too many strange things in the Heart Demon Bureau, and they varied depending on the skills.
However, among these strange things, someone like the Queen is also unique. The inner demon situation may exist forever and she may never be able to overcome it in her lifetime, or she may be able to overcome it in the next moment.
But if you don’t take the knife, it won’t come out?
Zhang Wenjing on the side also looked surprised.
But before Doctor Zhang could speak, Su Changan looked at Yan Yunxiao and Bao Xian and said, "But one thing is certain. Their strength seems to have improved. However, it has not reached the seventeenth level, but I feel that I have touched the threshold. Why this happened, I don't know."
It was as if, the inner demon situation existed, but it was forcibly suppressed. However, it was not a backlash. My strength had improved. I didn't know why, but it had improved anyway.
As before, it's very confusing, but that's the result.
Bao Xian hesitated to speak, then looked at Yan Yunxiao.
Yan Yunxiao was naturally surprised, but looking at Su Changan, he shook his head helplessly.
Seeing his wife like this, Bao Xian looked at Su Changan and was about to speak, but then he closed his mouth because he didn't understand either.
Su Changan lowered his head and looked at his palm, then raised his eyes to look at Yan Yunxiao: "Aunt, isn't it always so inexplicable that my strength increases every time? I'm used to it, but you're not used to it yet?"
Yan Yunxiao really didn't know how to respond to this.
Su Changan then said: "I thought you were used to it."
It was no longer a question of whether to reply or not, but Yan Yunxiao knew that the Empress' old habit had started again, so he didn't intend to speak at all.
But I was still surprised.
With the current level of strength, it is not easy to improve it.
As a result, this has been improved again.
Although Yan Yunxiao felt that Su Changan's aura was very calm at the moment, it was this calmness that proved that Su Changan had become stronger.
Bao Xian didn't say anything, but he looked at Su Changan with a bit of a dilemma. It was said that this empress had a heart like flowers and trees, growing towards the sun. Now she was in the Demonic Bureau, and she must know best what the internal energy was like. Yet she was still joking like that. It was rare.
But at the same time, Baoxian was actually very surprised, because this further improved his strength, which was really amazing.
And Su Changan just said that the inner demon may be related to the murderous thoughts.
This reminded Baoxian of the time when he was checking the documents of their Yulong Temple. There was a record about the woman who created Yiweiting.
Back then, that woman appeared in the martial arts world with extremely strong strength within just one year. As a result, the martial arts world was no longer peaceful. Wherever the woman went, there was no such thing as those who obeyed her prospering and those who disobeyed her perishing. Instead, those who disobeyed her would die, regardless of gender. Anyone who had done something unfaithful would surely die, and anyone who tried to stop her would also die.
