Chapter 54
As he said that, he pointed to the prince Wu Honglie beside him and said, "This is Wu Honglie, the prince of our Wu Kingdom. You can choose to follow him. You will definitely have no problem with wealth and glory. If you choose to follow me, you must make plans to suffer. The main thing about this young master is a strong man who can travel through Jiuzhou and move the world with me. To become such a strong man, you will naturally have to go through countless blood and fire tests, and even through life and death. This world is very big and there are many strong people, but I have a bigger heart. If I choose to follow me, I will take you all over the world and conquer all the strong man. Don't rush to answer, give you three days, and give me the answer in three days."
Watching these people leave, Yu Xiaotian also felt a little emotional in his heart, not knowing what choice they would make.
"I said to Prince, how many people will be involved in your disciples?"
"Pend to my disciple? I'm afraid there is not one. After hearing what you said, even the orphans want to go with you, let alone them."
A strange light flashed in the eyes of Prince Wu Honglie, as if he was extremely yearning for what Yu Xiaotian said.
Yu Xiaotian felt a sigh in his heart, is it really good to take these people on this path to a strong man?
Both of them were in deep thought. At this moment, they suddenly heard a panicked voice outside saying, "Your Highness, the Queen fainted and the King asked you to return to the palace."
In the Dongyang Palace, the queen was lying on the phoenix bed with a pale complexion. Her eyes were closed and her breathing was weak. She looked like she was terminally ill. The seventh princess Wu Xiaomo sat by the bed and cried anxiously. The prince Wu Honglie, who was rushing back, also stood aside with a anxious face.
The King of Wu was paced back and forth, and several imperial physicians were kneeling there to find a way.
"Think about it, think about it quickly, I can't think of a way to let all of you fall to the ground."
"Your Majesty, the Queen is a body born with a lack of meridians. This body can hardly absorb vital energy, but the body consumes vital energy much faster than ordinary people. Now the Queen is exhausting vital energy again, which cannot be saved by human power!"
An old doctor covered in wrinkles said, "They know the queen's physical condition very well, but they can do nothing."
"The vitality is exhausted? I remember that the queen was born like this ten years ago. Didn't it be better after that?"
"Yes, ten years ago, the queen took a thousand-year-old ginseng. Ginseng is a spiritual object that collects the vitality of heaven and earth. Thousand-year-old ginseng is a treasure among them. Taking it can naturally replenish vital energy. Even if the queen is born with a lack of veins, it can supply at least ten years of vital energy. If there is thousand-year-old ginseng, it can naturally help the queen recover. But such a treasure is simply hard to come by!"
The old doctor said with great regret. Obviously, he also wanted to cure this virtuous and kind queen, but unfortunately he needed too few things.
"Look for me immediately. The imperial list notifies the whole country that there are thousands of years of ginseng, and the reward of 100,000 coins will be awarded the title of marquis of ten thousand households."
The king directly declared that the queen was his wife, and the two of them had always had a good relationship, so how could he bear to let his wife leave the world so early?
It seems a bit inappropriate for the king to do this for the sake of his queen, but I believe no one will say anything when the love comes.
Wu Xiaomo was crying by the bedside. The queen was her and Wu Honglie's biological mother, and their relationship was always very close.
If she has any happy or unhappy things, she will tell her mother the first time. The queen who has always loved her has never blamed her. Even if she makes a mistake, she will teach her softly.
In Wu Xiaomo's heart, his mother would always accompany her and spoil her, but she didn't expect that she suddenly fell ill today.
Looking at her unconscious mother on the bed, the sadness in her heart was uncontrollable, and tears could not be stopped.
Wu Honglie felt uncomfortable when he saw all this. His mother was seriously ill, his sister cried sadly, his father was anxious and confused, and the whole palace was in chaos overnight.
"Doctor Xue, you can see if you can't find the thousand-year-old ginseng for the time being, can you use some other medicinal herbs first? After all, it's not a problem for the queen to be so unconscious."
Wu Honglie came to the old doctor and said respectfully, "He knew that his mother's illness could not be blamed on him, and the old man really wanted to save people."
"I dare not be the crown prince. I ask, the reason why I want thousand-year-old ginseng is to use the huge and pure energy of it. Other things may be difficult to replace." After thinking for a while, he continued to add: "If you really can't use hundred-year-old ginseng, it may also make the queen wake up temporarily, but it's hard to say how long it can last."
"Okay, okay, it works. Gu remembers that there is a hundred-year-old ginseng in the royal treasure house. Gu will go and find it now."
Wu Honglie said excitedly. Now that he finally heard that there was a way to save his mother, he was of course extremely excited. Although the centenary ginseng is also a treasure, it is always easier to find than the thousand-year-old ginseng.
"I want to find ginseng too." Wu Xiaomo, who was standing beside him, was of course very excited when he heard that ginseng could save his mother.
Wu Honglie hurriedly grabbed her and comforted her: "No need, I can go alone, you can take care of your mother here. Don't worry, little sister, I will find ginseng to wake up my mother, don't cry anymore."
The king came out of the imperial list, and the queen needed a thousand-year-old ginseng urgently. Those who could provide relevant information would be rewarded with great rewards. Those who directly took out ginseng would be rewarded with 100,000 gold coins and were awarded the title of 10,000 marquis.
Immediately afterwards, the Prince of Protecting the Country issued a marshal's order, and all troops without combat readiness immediately searched for the mountains and fields near their locations for ginseng.
In the next few days, the entire Wu Kingdom was in full swing. Everyone from nobles to civilians, civil officials to military generals, and everyone was looking for ginseng.
But people searched through all the places where ginseng might be hidden, but they had no gains. They found a lot of ordinary ginseng, but they had never seen even hairs after a hundred years or a thousand years.
However, there was still good news. Prince Wu Honglie found a century-old ginseng in the royal treasure house. The imperial physician used this ginseng to successfully rescue the queen.
But the bad news is that this century-old ginseng can only last for ten days. In ten days, the queen will completely consume all her vitality and eventually run out of vitality and die.
In view of this situation, the king once again raised the reward standards. Those who offered ginseng for thousands of years were rewarded with millions of gold coins and were granted the title of Wujiang Gong.
As soon as the news came out, the entire Wu Kingdom fell into madness again, and people set off a second wave of searching for ginseng. This time, more people were invested and more places were searched, but after two days, nothing was found.
There are only eight days left before the queen's term, but the thousand-year-old ginseng is still missing. The entire palace is filled with sorrow.
At this moment, there was a shocking and surprising news that Prime Minister Pan Shirong had a clue about the thousand-year-old ginseng...!
In the palace of King Wu, Wu Xiaomo was lying on the queen and crying. Although her father and brother told her to make her mother happy and not to cry in front of her, the little girl could not bear it.
When she thought that her mother would be gone for seven days, she felt so distressed that she was like a needle. She tried hard to squeeze out her smile, but she started crying again after saying a few words. Finally, she simply lay in her mother's arms and started crying loudly.
"Okay, my little princess, I won't be beautiful if I cry anymore. If your brother Xiaotian sees it, he might not like you."
Wu Xiaomo still finds it difficult to get rid of the sadness. No matter how the queen comforts her or coaxes her, the little girl just can't be happy.
"My mother..., I don't want to separate from you, I don't want you to die...My mother, don't leave me, okay?"
"Okay, okay, the queen promises you that the queen will never die and will always be with our little princess." The queen's eyes flashed with a loving light, and she continued with a smile: "I have been watching our little princess grow up, marry, have children..."
At the end, tears also oozed from the corners of her eyes. Watching her children grow up, get married, have children is the dream of every parent. But now, she can't do it. Thinking of this, she felt a piercing pain in her heart.
The prince who had been with him all the time was also flashing tears in his eyes. He held his hands tightly, and the veins in his hands burst out, and he felt extremely depressed in his heart.
Seeing his mother die day by day, as a son, he could only watch how cruel this is.
The same is true for the kings outside. As a father and husband, he feels much more depression than his son. If possible, he is even willing to exchange the throne for his wife's life. As long as they can keep their family together forever, they will not have such a tragedy, even if they give up the whole country, he will not hesitate.
At this moment, the waiter outside the door hurried in to report: "Report to the king, someone has heard that Prime Minister Pan has a thousand-year-old ginseng."
"What? Where did the information come from? Is it accurate?"
The king stood up from his seat excitedly and asked nervously at the person in front of him.
"It was the one we sent to inquire about the news that the servants of the Pan family learned from the mouth of the servants. According to the servants, the Prime Minister had the exact news about the thousand-year-old ginseng, and he planned to report it to His Majesty when he went to court tomorrow!"
What? Prime Minister Pan really knew about the news of the Thousand Years of Ginseng? He was planning to go to court tomorrow to tell himself. The king was so excited at this moment. He thought that there was no hope, but he turned around. He looked unprecedentedly ecstatic on his face.
"Okay, okay, okay! Come here, go to Pan's mansion and bring Prime Minister Pan Xuan... No, please come."
At this time, the king could not wait. Not to mention tomorrow, he wanted to run to Pan's mansion to ask clearly.
I wish I could come to Pan Shirong immediately and ask him if there is really news about the thousand-year-old ginseng and if I can really get the thousand-year-old ginseng.
The crying of his daughter and his wife's lament had long been suppressed by him. Now that he finally saw hope, how could he not be in a hurry?
Not long after, Prime Minister Pan Shirong led the waiter to outside Chaoyang Palace. The king inside was already impatient. When he heard someone coming, he couldn't wait to speak, "Prime Minister Pan."
"The old minister has seen Your Majesty."
Pan Shirong hurriedly walked in from outside. He was very good at observing his expression and knew that the king must be extremely anxious at this time, so his movements and expressions were also full of rush, which made the king very happy at first sight.
"Pan Aiqing, hurry up and calm down. I heard that my love is about the thousand-year-old ginseng, so I couldn't wait to invite my love. I wonder if you are really...?"
The king directly asked about the news about Thousand Years of Ginseng, but the more he said it, the more he became more and more nervous, for fear that the other party would say something he had never heard of, it was false, or it would spread rumors.
Pan Shirong looked at the king's nervous expression and felt a sense of pride. So what about the king? Don't you beg me?
