Huo Ni Lin helplessly shook his head, "Don't blame her. I ordered her to tell me the truth. Although her words and actions are unrestrained, she doesn't have any scheming thoughts, nor would she use fake words to lie to me. Actually, Zhen already knew that over the years, the imperial physicians had tried their best to not only failed to cure Zhen's strange illness, but it had also become difficult for them to control it. Every attack gets heavier and heavier. This is the approach of the end. "

"Your majesty, please do not say such unlucky things. There must be a way to cure your majesty's illness."

"Qing Qing, don't be like this. I only hate that we don't have enough time. I don't have anything else to compensate you." If you are the empress dowager's mother after our great trip, then you will be the emperor's official. If royal father chooses another son to assist your mother and son, I will no longer have any worries. "

At this moment, the reverse scale of fire appeared gentle and helpless as it weakly lay there, as if it was nearing its end.

Gong Huanfeng's heart felt as though it was being stabbed by knives. Even though he had never shown her much kindness, in this life or death situation, he had always thought for her and the Gong Family. Originally, she knew that her husband feared the power of the palace, so she secretly hated her father for it.

The Nine Palace Elders held the military power. For many years, they had been supporting the army and refused to hand over the military power. They were like tigers beside a king, making it difficult for the fire to burn their scales and rest.

Over the years, he had tried to use Huai Rou and other methods. After the palace nine heavens had completely annihilated the Gong Family, Huo Ni Lin understood that this king shoulder to shoulder, would never, no matter what, give up the power in his hands. If he had pressed her too hard, the destruction of the Gong Family would be a good example.

He could only endure and restrain himself for a long time. After choosing the Illusory Phoenix of the palace as his successor, he not only fulfilled the promise made by the late emperor, but he also had no other choice. This was the only way to stabilize the heart of the nine days old palace. The daughter was an empress, and if she gave birth to a prince in the future, she would become the crown prince and inherit the throne.

Gong Jiu only had one daughter, and that was Gong Huanfeng. The son of Huan Tianxuan was Gong Jiu's grandson, so there was no reason for him to not wholeheartedly support her.

Huo Ni Lin bitterly smiled. He often wondered if the Nine Heavens Palace had a son, would that be enough for them to sit side by side as king? Perhaps at that time, he would have long since become the emperor himself.

Everything that had happened today was just a plan to meet him honestly. Even though he had an illness, he had not yet reached the point of being unconscious. He had not yet reached the point where he needed to be sick on the dragon bed. He was so weak and exhausted.

He heard all the conversations just now, but he still pretended to be unconscious. Only after the empress dowager and Ji Tianning left did he sleep for a while. After half a day of sleep, his mind was brimming with energy and his head was incomparably clear. There was no longer any trace of fatigue or confusion.

Looking at Gong Huan Feng, all of these arrangements were made against the Gong Family, against the Shoulder King behind Gong Huan Feng.

"Father!"

The reverse fire scale sneered. This name was like a thorn that had been in his heart for many years. Before his father had passed away, Dugu and Gong Jiu had arranged a marriage for him and Gong Huanfeng. His last words were that he would ascend the throne in the future, and Gong Jiu would stand shoulder to shoulder as king. Furthermore, he repeatedly told him that he would address Gong Jiu Tian as his father.

He understood that at that time, the world of the Southern Champion still had to be decided by the nine days of the palace, and he was still young.

"He should be satisfied with this arrangement. I wonder, who will he choose as his heir?"

"Feng'er, I'll have someone deliver this prince to you tomorrow. I'm physically and mentally exhausted, and I intend to ask royal father to come and see me so that I can hand over everything to you."

His tone was filled with helplessness and sadness. It seemed that he was going to die soon.

Gong Huan Feng's heart trembled. She had never received such a tender favor from him before. Could it be that he was going to leave just like that?

"Men, welcome to the palace side by side with me. I am gravely ill, and you may enter the palace side by side for a discussion."

"Understood."

Not far away, there was a reply, and then silence.

"Your Majesty, do not worry. Your consort will immediately summon Ji Tian Ning for an audience to treat Your Majesty."

Huo Ni Lin nodded, "That's fine too. Let her draw silver needles for me, so that my royal father won't be worried. Feng'er, it has been a long time since you have seen royal father, so go welcome him into the palace in my place. "

Gong Huanfeng hesitated. She didn't want to leave the Fiery Inverted Scale, but she understood that this was the opportunity the Fiery Inverted Scale had given her father and son to whisper.

In the side chamber, Huo Ni Lin looked at Ji Tian Ning, his eyes brimming with energy, while his face was filled with fatigue and weakness.

A mocking smile blossomed on her charming face. She didn't know what he was up to, but since he had suddenly made this request today, she agreed. However, this was in return. Even if he was the Sovereign King, he wasn't her dish. There was no need for her to be courteous to him.

"What?" You say that the things I do for you are the greatest favors you have for me, that they are the favors of His Majesty? Do you want me to kneel on the ground and kowtow nine times to Xie Tianshu? "

The Fiery-Scaled Tiger helplessly looked at Ji Tian Ning. This was the reaction of Ji Tian Ning rejecting his request after he asked her to cooperate with him. In the end, the only one who could compromise was him. Because of that delicate face, his heart had been moved, and the only person he trusted in this plan was her.

He had never trusted the imperial physician, and only Ji Tianning, who was unrelated to the palace, had not been bribed by the palace family. Regardless of whether Ji Tian Ning was trustworthy or not, he had no other choice.

The internal strife of Fengyuan was not only a great time to send troops, but also a great time for him to carry out his plan.

As the supreme leader of the Southern Champion Kingdom, he had to be coerced by his concubine. He had to agree to many conditions before he could get the cooperation he wanted. As for that cooperation, it was Ji Tian Ning's medical skills that allowed the imperial physicians to conclude that his illness was severe and that he needed to be recuperated in bed.

He rubbed his face with his fingers and looked at himself in the mirror. He looked like he was seriously ill. His face was like yellow paper and his lips were like the lips of an indigo leaf. His face was bloodless, and there seemed to be lines at the corners of his eyes. His cheeks were sunken, and his eyes were sunken. No matter how one looked at it, he was a seriously ill person.

The only thing he needed to do was to conceal his cold and sharp eyes and pretend to be dispirited.

Looking at his reflection in the mirror, he saw that his eyes were greyish black, and the bags under his eyes were swollen. He had lost his usual handsomeness. He could not help but feel even more depressed.

"How is the noble emperor? Do you feel?"

"Great! My beloved concubine, please remove all the silver needles from my body. I have already summoned the King to an audience. It would be very impolite to bring these silver needles with me."

"Oh, I remember that you wanted to let that King Clairvoyant, that King Clairvoyant, see how sick you are. If you remove the silver needles, the effect would be much weaker. Well, this is medicine, and the smell of medicine should be floating in the bedroom, that's why it sounds like such a thing. "Oh right, let me remove the silver needles on your hands and arms. I can keep the ones on your head, so that your father-in-law can see that you are very sick, and might feel a little bit of compassion."

"I think my beloved concubine is more considerate, so be it."

Her charming eyes turned a few times, and she felt a chill in her heart. What was this little cat planning?

"Hehe, let's exchange it for a few silver needles. These silver needles are too inconspicuous, they can easily be overlooked." What if that prince of yours is too old to see? "

Ji Tian Ning revealed a mischievous smile as he pulled out the silver needles on the reverse scale. With a flick of his finger, a three inch long needle appeared.

Huo Ni Lin couldn't help but tremble. Even on the battlefield, he had never felt so shaken when facing swords and sabers. In his heart, these tiny silver needles were actually much more frightening than blades and swords.

"My beloved concubine, this … isn't this silver needle a bit too long? Don't tell me you're planning to murder your husband?"

A helpless expression appeared on Huo Ni's face. He had never felt so helpless towards a person, especially a woman. This little cat, always full of different kinds of things, filled him with interest but also gave him a headache. However, every time he saw her pure eyes, he would unknowingly indulge her.

After being with Ji Tian Ning for so long, he had already learned how to speak casually in front of her and even learned how to tease her.

"Cough cough. Someone you are not my husband. If I wanted to murder you, you would have already died ten times. Don't move, otherwise, if you stab the wrong acupuncture point, it will be very painful."

Ah!

He let out a cry of pain. The pain came from his head. He knew that she was doing it on purpose. She must have tried to invade the hot spring. Could that be considered an invasion? He was the ruler of a nation, and she was his woman. She had been his woman for far too long, and she should have been branded with his name.

His gaze swept across her graceful body. He couldn't wait to push the kitten down onto the dragon bed and take her, no matter how she resisted.

However, he couldn't do so now. He could only sit obediently on the dragon bed and be abused by her delicate hands.

There was no need to use needles that were three inches long to pierce the head of the Fire Lin beast. Usually, a needle used in acupuncture on the top of the head would only need an inch. Usually, the depth of the needle would be half an inch, so as to avoid harming the nerves in the head.

The head is thin and bony, only suitable for shallow needling, many acupoints only need to be pierced three points. As for the three inch silver needles, they were of relatively little use. Only a special acupuncture technique would be able to use such long silver needles.

The reverse fire scale looked at the dazzling silver needles. Under the light of the lamp, the three inch long needles made him feel like if they all stabbed into his head, then he would be able to collect his corpse. Fortunately, Ji Tian Ning did not pierce the three inch long silver needle into his head. Instead, it was only a shallow needle, but the needle left outside was more than two inches long.

Most of the silver needles were only able to pierce three parts of the body. Nine out of ten were left outside, swaying on the head of the reverse fire scale, attracting attention.

"Will he grow old? Even if he falls asleep and flies a mosquito in front of him, he won't be able to survive. "

He shook his head helplessly and muttered slander about the King who stood side by side. That prince was still in the prime of spring and autumn. He was in good health and had a good appetite. He could eat half a sheep in a meal. It could draw a strong bow of five hundred stones, and its arrow never missed its target. If the arrow had wanted to blind the bird with its left eye, it would never have blown the bird's head apart.
