Xia Houqi's eyes were dull, he just looked out of the window at the gray sky.
Ever since he summoned it, the sky in the summer palace has been gloomy.
It seemed as if the heavens were disappointed in him, if she was still there, she might be disappointed too.
So, she will never come again.
Forget it, after he died, he might still have a chance to take a look at her.
There were no maids around him to serve him, and after he had been ill for many days, the court ladies and eunuchs Xia Houqi was close to died or fled.
"My lord, drink some soothing soup, you haven't had a rest for several days."
It was the gray-haired Queen Mother who entered the door, and she couldn't help feeling sad when she saw Xia Houqi's appearance.
"Queen, the baby is no longer the emperor of Daxia."
Xiahou Qi's voice was as breathless as a silk.
"No, my lord, you can't despair, Yehou and the others will definitely come to save you. And the Ye family, the Ai family heard that the Ye family made a big splash at the auction of Tianmen a few days ago. The dragon singing sword of the Ye family …”
Seeing Xia Houqi's appearance, the Queen Mother hurried forward and took Xia Houqi's hand.
She watched this child grow up step by step. From childhood to becoming Emperor Xia, his journey was too painful.
Since Ye Lingyue left, he has neither sorrow nor joy.
As a mother, she always felt very sorry for him.
If it wasn't because of being a prince, Ye Lingyue might have looked at him more at the beginning.
In the eyes of others, the incomparably noble position of Emperor Xia and Marquis Xia, in Ye Lingyue's eyes, is like a dream come true.
What she chose in the end was just a deposed Prince Beiqing.
"It's just relying on her power. Queen Mother, don't you understand that whether it is me or the Ye family, it is because of her that we are today. Now that she is gone, the Ye family and I will perish .”
After learning the good news about the Ye family, Xia Houqi did not show any extra joy.
Xia Houqi is a wise gentleman, he knows very well that Ye Huangyu's mother and daughter are the real talents of the Ye family.
If it is an eagle, it should spread its wings and fly in the sky; if it is a dragon, it should soar in the nine heavens.
Neither Ye Lingyue nor Ye Huangyu are things in the pool.
They have already given too much to Da Xia.
"Qi'er, no, General Ye will definitely come to rescue us. People from Tianmen will definitely be driven away."
The queen mother held Xia Houqi's hand, not daring to let go.
The Xia Houqi in front of her gave her the illusion that once she let go, she might disappear before her eyes.
"Mother, even if the Tianmen is gone, the fate of the Xia Palace will not be changed. It is the fault of the child, who released it. You should have found out that I can't get rid of it. This time is different from the last time, there is no Lingyue, I can't make it through."
Xia Houqi smiled wryly.
His eyes were slightly red, but no tears came out.
In his eyes, tiny bloodshots were constantly growing, and a faint light appeared in the originally dull pupils.
"Qi'er, it's not your fault. If you want to blame it, you can blame Da Xia's ancestors. They killed you."
After the Queen Mother discovered Xia Houqi's abnormality, her face also changed.
"Qi'er? Qi'er? What's wrong with you? Don't scare mother."
The queen mother touched Xia Houqi's face with both hands.
But as soon as she touched Xia Houqi, she was thrown away suddenly.
"Get out, get out immediately!"
Xia Houqi changed from his weak and weak appearance earlier, he was hunched over, his eyes glowed red.
He dragged the queen mother and threw her out of the bedroom.
"Qi'er, don't scare your mother."
Xia Houqi still maintained the last shred of reason. He remembered very clearly what happened the last time he had similar symptoms.
That time, Concubine Qing, who had been imprisoned in the cold palace for a long time, learned of his illness, couldn't hold back, and came to him.
He doesn't remember what happened at the time.
All I know is that when she woke up, Concubine Qing had already become a mummy.
He can't, can't hurt his mother again.
Every time he goes crazy, what he does, he doesn't remember at all.
The heavy palace gate was closed in front of the Empress Dowager.
Xia Houqi leaned against the door, trembling all over.
He knew what would happen next, those people who came to the palace for an interview...
His body slumped to the ground little by little until his consciousness was completely swallowed up.
Outside the palace gate, the queen mother slapped the palace gate, the maid behind her hurriedly helped her, but was pushed away by her.
"Ye Lingyue, even if Aijia begs you, where are you, only you can save Qi'er."
The queen mother collapsed on the ground, crying helplessly.
The empress dowager's cries were intermittent and slowly disappeared in the deep palace compound.
On the outskirts of the imperial palace, where the imperial hospital used to be, nearly 200 folk strangers have gathered here.
They whispered to each other, all talking about what they saw and heard in the summer palace.
"Su Jing, everyone, thank you very much for being able to come to the Xia Palace today for an interview with Emperor Xia. The Royal Hospital has prepared an additional assessment, and you still need to pass this round of assessment before you can enter Emperor Xia's bedroom."
Song Guanshi coughed a few times, signaling for everyone to quiet down.
This face-to-face consultation at Bagua Tianmen attracted quite a few folk strangers.
Although they have already been allowed to enter the palace gate and completed the two procedures of face-to-face interview and body search, after entering the summer palace, everyone cannot directly face the saint, and they need to undergo an additional basic assessment of medical skills before they can enter.
For this item, the people from the Royal Hospital personally came forward to assess it.
The reason for doing this is, on the one hand, to prevent messy face saints.
Another reason is that Emperor Xia's madness may strike at any time, and the more people he sees, the more strangers he is, the easier it is to be alarmed.
No more than ten people can be interviewed at one time.
After two rounds of screening, there were more than 200 people in the early stage, and finally there were 70 or 80 people left.
Luo Qing, Nan Shishi, Zeng Xiaoyu and others are among them.
When dividing into teams, Luo Qing was in the group behind Zeng Xiaoyu.
"It seems that Xiao Yu is quite calm. Taking her to the human world will indeed be beneficial to her growth."
Through Luo Qing, Ye Lingyue looked at Zeng Xiaoyu in front of her.
Ye Lingyue withdrew her gaze, and at this moment, she felt a pair of gazes behind her also fall on Zeng Xiaoyu.
Ye Lingyue frowned, looked back, and just met Nan Shishi.
"Amitabha."
Nan Shishi caught Luo Qing's eyes, and he saluted Luo Qing.
This old monk looked much more annoying than Nanjiu monk.
When Ye Lingyue saw Nan Shishi, she instinctively felt a little uncomfortable.
But... Ye Lingyue noticed that there was a wave of Buddha power in Nan Shisi's body.
Unexpectedly, there are people in the Buddhist sect in the human world who have realized the power of Buddhism.
Ye Lingyue was thinking secretly, she remembered that when she was in Guyuehai, the monk Nan Wushan's cultivation base was not that high.
From the looks of it, it's not just foreign lands who get involved in the three super sects.
