Chapter 320 Breath
Chapter 320 Breath
When Jiang Yuanfeng arrived at Kunning Palace, Ji Bozhou had been waiting for a long time.
He smelled the blood on Ji Bozhou and frowned subconsciously.
Meeting Jiang Yuanfeng's slightly dissatisfied gaze, Ji Bozhou pretended not to notice and just nodded slightly.
Ji Bozhou did not salute.
Jiang Yuanfeng raised his eyebrows, appearing calm on the surface, but inside, there were turbulent waves.
According to his original plan, Song Chuchu, the ghost whose soul he had nurtured for many days, had the help of his special device to break the Qiankun Five Qi Formation, and also had the magic weapon he had nurtured for many days, so she should be able to occupy Lu Xuan's body.
As long as she got it, she could go to Ji Bozhou with the identity of Lu Xuan. Anyway, Ji Bozhou was so obsessed with Lu Xuan.
Then he could let Song Chuchu take revenge directly, so that the Ji family could be destroyed without him having to take action.
He killed two birds with one stone, destroying both the Ji family and the young sect leader.
However, he didn't expect that Song Chuchu was killed by Lu Xuan yesterday, causing all his plans to fall through.
In particular, today, Ji Bozhou, apart from being full of blood and energy, looked full of energy and spirit.
Without Song Chuchu pestering him to absorb his yang energy, and with the help of medication, Ji Bozhou has hope of recovery.
All of this was the result of the secret rivalry between him and Lu Xuan, but this kid got the advantage.
It really gave him a leg up!
Seeing Jiang Yuanfeng's unfriendly look, Ji Bozhou smiled knowingly, "Thanks to your care, sir, I will restore my father's title. In the future, we will work together to support the country. I hope you will be generous with your guidance."
Jiang Yuanfeng's heart was filled with shock.
The emperor actually restored the Ji family's title without telling me?!
when did it happen?
I didn't receive any message at all.
Acting like this is both foolish and stupid!
He calmly pulled the corner of his mouth, and said in a lukewarm voice, "Then congratulations, Lord Ji."
The emperor walked out from the back hall of Kunning Palace, looking absent-minded and uneasy.
"Si Luan, Lord Jiang, I summoned you here today because of Jia Ru, she..."
As the emperor spoke, his throat trembled and he was choked with sobs and unable to utter a word.
Gradually, he could no longer control himself and suddenly covered his face and burst into tears.
He Yuanguang stood beside the emperor, constantly comforting him and wiping away tears.
"Your Majesty, what happened to the Empress?" Ji Bozhou became anxious when he saw the emperor like this.
The emperor cried uncontrollably and pointed to the back hall, signaling them to go and see for themselves.
Ji Bozhou didn't care about anything else and immediately ran towards the back hall in a flash.
Your Majesty must not be in any danger at this time, as he has just regained his title!
Jiang Yuanfeng glanced at the crying emperor.
Just now when he came out, I saw his eyes that were swollen like walnuts.
He sneered in his heart at the emperor's emotional behavior and showed a bit of displeasure on his face.
"Your Majesty, Lord Ji is a relative of the Empress. I am just a humble subject, and it is inappropriate for me to enter the harem. If Your Majesty ordered me to come here just for this matter, then I will take my leave first!"
Jiang Yuanfeng's voice was cold, he was already suppressing his anger and giving the emperor enough face.
The emperor knew something was wrong when he heard his words. He hurried forward to hold him back, and immediately stopped crying. "No, I know you're not feeling well. I called you here today because I want you to see the queen's condition. All the doctors are helpless. Can you go in and see if you can cure her with your method?"
"Cure?" Jiang Yuanfeng frowned. "The Queen is ill?"
The emperor did not answer him, but directly pulled him towards the back hall of Kunning Palace.
Jiang Yuanfeng didn't care whether Queen Ji was sick or not, but the gloomy mood that had been accumulating in his heart since the arrival gradually dissipated.
"You gave the title of Marquis back to Ji Bozhou without telling me?!"
On the palace corridor, the emperor froze when he heard Jiang Yuanfeng's serious and cold tone.
His eyes flickered for a few moments, and his aura weakened in an instant.
Scratching his head, he felt a bit embarrassed. "Ji Xiangli has become a living dead, and Si Luan is the only relative left in the Queen's family. I can't be too ruthless, right? If the Queen is left without any relatives, she will be sad, and I will feel bad too..."
His plump and broad body drooped dejectedly, and regardless of his imperial dignity, his eyes were red again.
"You know, I've come this far because of Jiaru. Although I've been a little dissatisfied with her recently, I can't do without her. Her life is hanging by a thread today, and I'm even more certain of her importance to me. So if Siluan can't regain his title, I'm afraid that if the Queen is displeased, I'll lose her..."
At the end of his speech, his round shoulders began to tremble, and his whole body choked with sobs, losing some of his imperial majesty.
Jiang Yuanfeng felt a little disappointed when he saw the emperor like this.
He glared at him fiercely and said through gritted teeth, "How dare you make such a decision without the knowledge of me! The Liang Empire will be destroyed in your hands sooner or later!"
He snorted angrily, crossed the palace corridor, and walked forward quickly with his sleeves waving.
The emperor saw Jiang Yuanfeng was angry, but he also knew that he was doing it for his own good, so he could only follow him closely, not knowing what to do.
This was Jiang Yuanfeng's first time to visit the rear hall of Kunning Palace. In the past, he only made a brief stop at the Nine Dragons Spouting Water Fountain outside the front hall.
But the closer he got to it, the more he sensed an unusual aura.
Ghost!
The Kunning Palace was filled with black air. He remembered the white negative energy he had seen outside the Kunning Palace before. At first, he thought that the negative energy was because the core of the Nine Dragons Water-Spitting Fountain was destroyed.
Now he thought that it was possible that the fusion of Yin and Yang Qi concealed the black Qi inside, so he deliberately didn't notice it!
But how did all this escape his eyes?
Concubine Yun was lying on the jade pillow where Empress Ji was sleeping, trying her best to absorb the last bit of her essence.
Since yesterday afternoon, the palace has seen changes that she has never seen since she became a ghost.
The extremely strong Longyang energy in the entire palace that had originally wanted to kick her out of the palace disappeared in an instant.
In harmony with the existing purple energy, it slowly returned to the yin and yang balance that the palace should have.
It also allowed her to greatly increase her skills within that day.
Although the sect leader had previously attracted Yin Qi to Kunning Palace alone, she was within the formation after all, and she did not have enough Yin Qi to protect her body, so her power always accumulated slowly.
The results of getting rid of Queen Ji were slow.
So in the past, I could only appear in her dreams often and scare Ji Jiaru in her dreams.
But after yesterday, the entire Forbidden Palace naturally formed a magnetic field that allowed her to accumulate strength and strengthen her soul. Coupled with the resentment of many other concubines in the harem who had been killed by Queen Ji, she took advantage of the situation and directly absorbed the soul essence of Queen Ji. This person was quickly defeated by her!
Yunpin was rejoicing that she was about to get her revenge, and had no idea that a familiar yet unfamiliar dangerous aura was approaching her.
Jiang Yuanfeng entered Queen Ji's bedroom. Even through the layers of gauze curtains, he could see the surging black gas above Queen Ji's jade pillow at a glance.
He was startled and immediately shook off the emperor's hand.
The spell rang out quickly in his mouth, and Jiang Yuanfeng immediately threw out three soul-calling talismans.
Yunpin felt pain all over her body and then she sensed the spell.
She hurriedly got out of Queen Ji's body and was about to escape immediately, but she didn't expect that three golden fire talismans had surrounded her, and her soul body suddenly felt the pain of being burned by the fire.
"You damn Xuanshi, why are you meddling in other people's business?!"
Concubine Yun was furious. She didn't expect that it was this person again, and he actually came directly towards her.
Jiang Yuanfeng looked at Yunpin, whose entire body was flushed red, with a gloomy look. He raised his hand and immediately pulled her in front of him. "You bold evil ghost, you actually sucked the Queen's soul. How dare you!"
The flaming talisman turned into a fiery thread in his hand that he could control, tightly binding Yunpin's throat, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
"Tell me, how did you find Kunning Palace? Judging from your appearance, you were also a concubine in your lifetime. How long have you been in this palace?!"
Jiang Yuanfeng's voice and expression were so stern that the emperor beside him was frightened.
The sorrowful look on his face disappeared instantly, and was replaced by shock and surprise.
He looked seriously at the vast void in front of Jiang Yuanfeng, with a bit of doubt and fear, "Evil ghost?!"
"Is this really because of a ghost?"
He looked around, his gaze finally landing on Jiang Yuanfeng's still burning talisman, "My dear, if you have the ability, you must subdue the ghost and rescue the queen for me!"
After saying this, he honestly took two steps back.
Although Jiang Aiqing once said that he had the power to protect the law and no ghosts could get close to him, the queen was persecuted. Who knows if he, the emperor, would also be approached by ghosts?
There are still so many people in Daliang who need him, so it is better to be careful.
Ji Bozhou was sitting in front of the queen's bed crying. When he heard the conversation between the emperor and Jiang Yuanfeng, he was immediately stunned.
"My Lady, there are ghosts here too?!"
There was a tremor in his voice, but his eyes involuntarily fell on Jiang Yuanfeng.
The reason he was haunted by an evil spirit before was because of Jiang Yuanfeng.
Since the Queen also has this, then in his opinion, Lord Jiang is not completely without suspicion...
But soon, he shifted his suspicious gaze away from Jiang Yuanfeng.
If it really is a ghost, then Jiang Yuanfeng will have to save the Queen.
Ji Bozhou was both sad and worried about the queen's critical illness.
He had just regained his title, and he had to rely on his sister's power to take back the power that belonged to the Ji family, so that he would have enough strength to deal with Prince Jin's Mansion and command Jiang Yuanfeng.
Only when his sister is alive can he influence the emperor through her...
Thinking of this, he immediately knelt down before the emperor.
"Your Majesty, please ask Lord Jiang to save my sister. She is my only relative. Please, for the sake of my sister's service to you for so many years, save her..."
The emperor was deeply moved by Ji Bozhou's current appearance.
Sure enough, there were people who understood his feelings.
Jiaru, she must live...
