Chapter 1126 The King Awakens, Yunyi Sanren Learns About Ling'er's Battle Situation
The queen took the king's hand and told him what had just happened. She emphasized that it was Yunyi Sanren who had saved him with a miraculous elixir of life. However, there were conditions.
The king had just recovered, and Yun Yi instructed, "Your Majesty has just woken up, please rest first. I will come again tomorrow to take your pulse and discuss my additional requests."
The king felt as if he had just almost died, but then suddenly came back to life. Out of gratitude to Yun Yi Sanren, the king was extremely thankful for saving his life.
Yun Yi Sanren didn't care too much; he was more concerned about Ling'er, whose performance had just amazed everyone. Yun Yi Sanren also roughly understood the situation.
However, Yunyi Sanren was still uneasy.
The king had fully recovered, and only then could he listen attentively to Ling'er's account of the battle that had just taken place.
Yunyi Sanren asked Ling'er, "Ling'er, when you captured Second Uncle and Third Uncle, did you encounter any danger? Did anyone hurt you?"
Meng Ling'er smiled mischievously and patted her chest, saying, "Grandmaster Uncle, don't worry, I'm very powerful. They are no match for me at all."
The talismans you gave me haven't even been used yet. Even if three thousand more came, I wouldn't be afraid.
At this moment, the Crown Prince stepped forward, bowed deeply to Yun Yi Sanren, and said, "Immortal Master, I will never forget your life-saving grace. If it weren't for you today, my father and I would probably be in grave danger."
If something were to happen to their father, and their ambitious but incompetent younger brother were to become king, the court and the entire country might truly descend into chaos.
More importantly, you raised my daughter to be a capable person, enabling her to defeat the rebellious army in a time of crisis. Ling'er made a great contribution. All of this is the result of your careful guidance.
"I will never forget the great kindness of the Immortal Master. I don't know how to thank you for your immense grace and virtue."
Yunyi Sanren quickly helped the Crown Prince up, saying, "Your Highness, there's no need for such formality. It is my duty to teach Ling'er."
Now that His Majesty is out of danger, the most urgent task is to handle matters outside the palace.
The second prince and the third prince's uncle launched a palace coup and should not be let off lightly. Those in the court who harbor disloyal intentions and plot rebellion must also be thoroughly investigated and eliminated to prevent future troubles.
If there's anything I can help you with, please don't hesitate to ask.
Yunyi Sanren was trying to build a good impression on his future father-in-law in advance, following Xiao Yunyan's advice. Although he felt a little awkward, he was still very willing to help stabilize the court and the country.
The Crown Prince nodded solemnly and said, "What the Immortal Master says is absolutely right. I will make the arrangements immediately and will definitely wipe out the traitors in one fell swoop. I will certainly bother you when I need your help."
Yunyi Sanren felt somewhat uncomfortable being treated with such respect by the Crown Prince.
He originally wanted to make his relationship with Ling'er public, but now he felt he couldn't bring himself to say it.
Looking at the Crown Prince's resolute expression, his humble and polite demeanor, and his open and honest character, he secretly admired him and felt that letting the Crown Prince succeed to the throne was indeed a wise choice.
Afterwards, the Queen and the royal physicians consulted Yunyi Sanren about the King's subsequent recovery. Yunyi Sanren told them:
"The king's body is continuously nourished by the effects of the elixir, so no special treatment is needed. Just take care of him as usual with his diet and daily routine."
As long as nothing serious happened, Yun Yi prepared to leave. The Queen persuaded him to stay and dine with her.
Yunyi Sanren replied with a smile, "I won't bother you today. There's plenty of time in the future. Farewell."
Meanwhile, the situation outside the palace is about to undergo a major change.
