Looking for you in reincarnation
Chapter 697: Getting Worse
In front of others, he was the man of his word, who would not tolerate questioning or rebuttal. He was cold, serious, and decisive, making the court officials tremble with fear. But in front of Si He, he revealed his unusual appearance and attitude, helpless, compromising, indulgent, and doting, without the majesty of an emperor.
Because of his pampering and indulgence, Si He often looked like a simple girl and did not act like a queen.
Seeing this, the prince not far away retreated silently.
Yue Fuli wanted to say something else, but Si He said, "Husband, would you please accompany me to rest for a while?"
"it is good."
Seeing him respond, Si He smiled sweetly, and her complexion seemed to have improved a lot.
After the palace maids left, the two of them lay on the bed. Si He hugged him and slept, and he patted her back gently as usual.
After a while, Si fell asleep with shallow breathing.
Yue Fuli then put down his hand, gently kissed her forehead, and then closed his eyes and fell asleep.
The capital city was peaceful and stable, but the border with the Western Frontier Kingdom was becoming increasingly chaotic.
The prince soon joined the army and rushed to the border.
In fact, the prince does not need to go to the battlefield with the army anymore, but he wants to make more military achievements to make his position as prince more stable.
This battle lasted for a year and the results were quite good.
The Taoists trained in the Taiping Dynasty now have good abilities in controlling evil spirits and have the upper hand in most cases. The soldiers leading the army are also very brave and have captured the Western Frontier Kingdom and several cities this year.
But in the second year, they suffered some defeats and lost several cities they had previously captured.
In the third year, we had a small victory.
The war went on intermittently, with both sides fighting back and forth. Later, many of the Taoists who controlled evil spirits suffered heavy losses and could no longer use their methods. After all, if they controlled evil spirits too much, it would be easy for evil spirits to enter their bodies, and this did not include the casualties on the battlefield.
As a result, the war gradually turned to the kind of real fighting with swords and guns.
Si He's condition was getting worse and worse. Her face looked pale and sickly, and she often felt sleepy. The redness in her eyes was becoming more and more obvious. However, most of the time she used the energy in her body to adjust the condition of her eyes, so no one noticed this abnormality.
Now, the weak energy in her body has grown a little bit as time goes by. It is about as thick as four hairs. It is magical. She simply calls this energy "mana".
However, if her body continues like this, this little bit of "mana" will probably be of no use soon.
As Yue Fuli grew older and worked hard on government affairs for many years, his health began to show signs of problems.
Despite the treatment by the imperial physician, it only alleviated the symptoms but could not cure them.
During this period, a royal physician suggested that I try taking longevity pills.
After all, the longevity pills did have miraculous effects, and the potential drawbacks of the evil spirit lurking in the body were very weak and not noticeable. Of course, by the time the evil spirit was discovered, it would have been a long time since the pills were taken, and few people would associate the evil spirit with the pills.
Generally, we only guess that it was contaminated from somewhere else.
Or after the disease breaks out, few people notice anything unusual about the body during burial, because the spiritual essence content in today's longevity pills is very low.
But the potential harm remains unchanged. People with evil spirits in their bodies will definitely turn into corpses after death, unless they are burned to ashes.
But even if it is burned to ashes, the soul will still be contaminated with evil spirits, which will have an impact even if it is reincarnated.
Just like Yue Fuli's case, Ning Ji was contaminated by evil spirits in his previous life. Even though it seemed to have been completely exorcised, it still had an impact after reincarnation. His biological mother died early because of this.
So, under the advice of the imperial physician, Si He did not say anything, but she had told Yue Fuli about the disadvantages of this pill many years ago, so Yue Fuli never intended to take this pill.
Just listen to what the imperial physician says, there is no need to say anything more.
And this matter cannot be spread out.
She had used the longevity pill as a reward before, which was also necessary due to the situation.
However, as for their views on life expectancy, perhaps because they had already anticipated it, the two had already begun to slowly accept this outcome a long time ago.
But as time goes by, the feeling of reluctance becomes stronger and stronger.
Si He was glad that her sleeping time was now much longer than before. Perhaps things would get better in the future and she would be awake for longer and longer periods of time.
In the blink of an eye, two years passed, the border was once again at a truce, and the Western Frontier Kingdom once again proposed peace talks.
The prince then returned to the capital with the army.
Afterwards, Yue Fuli gradually handed over state affairs to the prince and slowly transferred power.
After that, Yue Fuli's health deteriorated.
Seeing his physical condition, Si He felt helpless and could only suppress all her sadness in her heart and accompany him through his last moments.
When Yue Fuli was 59 years old, he and Si He left the palace and moved to a temporary palace outside the city. Basically, he no longer took care of most affairs personally.
The prince was in power on behalf of the emperor, and for a time, undercurrents began to surge in the court. As the saying goes, a new emperor means new ministers, and this is always the case. It’s just a matter of how big the storm is.
However, as long as Yue Fuli is still alive and the prince has not yet ascended the throne, there will not be any major disturbances.
After Si He and Yue Fuli moved to the temporary palace, he was able to relax for a rare time. He no longer had to deal with endless affairs every day, and he no longer had to worry about balancing the forces in the court.
Si He lived a leisurely and peaceful life with him.
However, he is in poor health now and has become ill due to overwork, so he basically needs to rest.
Si He was physically weak and easily sleepy, spending most of her time sleeping every day. Yue Fuli followed her and increased her sleep time.
The rest of the time, they would play chess, read books, or do nothing but sit together, drink tea, talk, and watch Momo and Wuwu play.
Until one day, when Si He woke up from a nap, her heart tightened because she could feel that the abnormality in her eyes had become more obvious and it was difficult to hide it anymore.
At this moment, Yue Fuli was still resting, so she got out of bed quietly and walked to the bronze mirror for dressing.
When she saw the red eyes reflected in the mirror, she couldn't help but purse her lips.
After a while, she moved her mind, and a subtle magical power gathered in her eyes, trying to continue to conceal her red eyes as before.
But after a long time, there was still no change.
After all, this little bit of magic power was too weak to cover up the eyes that were getting redder and redder.
Because it was not just red in color, there was an invisible strange aura flowing faintly in her eyes. This aura was very faint before, but now with the passage of time, it has slowly strengthened, so her meager magic power can no longer conceal it.
