Chapter 1037: Sacrifice

Chapter 1037

These soldiers are all wearing special knives. According to their aura, one can tell at a glance that they are Lin Yue's personal guards.

Seeing this scene, the red-robed middle-aged man's face turned pale, and he knew that this time Lin Yue was going to be serious.

"Nephew! You misunderstood your uncle, those things really weren't leaked by your uncle..."

The middle-aged man in the red robe hurriedly yelled to Lin Yue, his voice very nervous.

As a member of the royal family, he naturally knows what the next process is and what he will face.

Hearing the red-robed middle-aged man's excuse, Lin Yue sneered coldly and ignored him.

In the horrified gaze of the middle-aged man in the red robe, he was surrounded by the group of guards, and one of the soldiers stood behind him.

Hearing the sound of the blade being pulled out, the middle-aged man in the red robe was startled in cold sweat, and quickly looked at Lin Yue.

"I admit it! I was so obsessed with my heart that I let people spread the news. Forgive uncle once, I won't dare anymore!"

Hearing what he said, the ministers in Fengqiuyuan began to discuss.

"He really did it, it's really hateful!"

"I didn't expect the prince to be such a person. Fortunately, the emperor's sharp eyesight pulled him out."

"But even if the person who leaked the news is caught, this matter can't be suppressed anymore..."

Lin Yue looked at the middle-aged man in the red robe and said quietly, "Unexpectedly, you would still admit that it is indeed the situation outside now that it won't help to kill you."

Hearing Lin Yue's words, the red-robed middle-aged man's face showed a touch of joy, but his face became extremely pale in the next moment.

"However, keeping you is also a curse, so please go and die."

Lin Yue's eyes filled with coldness, and said lightly.

As soon as the voice fell, the long knife that had been standing behind the middle-aged man in the red robe suddenly fell.

Huh huh!

With a sound of being severed, the middle-aged man's head in the red robe fell into the cloth bag that had been prepared in advance.

And his headless corpse was also placed on the ground with the support of several soldiers nearby.

Seeing that the prince was dead, many ministers in Fengqiuyuan thought that today's highlight had passed, and the next thing should be an ordinary sacrifice.

However, Lin Yue's next sentence made everyone look surprised.

"I have found a solution to the southern disease, and the chaos will end soon."

Lin Yue's voice attracted everyone's eyes.

"What... there is a solution!"

"Did the group of doctors discover a cure?"

"God bless my Dragon Flame Empire..."

Hearing the voice of everyone's discussion, Lin Yue's expression remained unchanged, but he said lightly, "You don't have to guess randomly, I will use this sacrifice to calm the chaos."

Suddenly, the doubtful voices of the ministers sounded in the entire Fengqiu Garden.

Sacrifice?

Although the sacrifice is passed down from a long time ago, many people believe in it.

But these people, as important court officials, naturally knew that the sacrifices had no practical effect.

The emperor was not keen on such things in the past, what happened this time?

Hearing this, some ministers couldn't help but want to speak to Lin Yue.

But before they could say anything, Lin Yue already waved his hand.

"I have decided, no need to say more."

After that, Lin Yue walked towards the sacrificial stand of Fengqiuyuan.

And the old man with half-white hair walked in front of many ministers and said solemnly, "Don’t talk about it anymore, I know you have a lot of doubts in your hearts, but as long as you look at the emperor quietly, it will be natural for a while. Will understand."

Speaking of this, a touch of grief flashed in the old man's eyes.

Hearing the words of the old man, the ministers in Fengqiuyuan stopped talking and became quiet.

Because it was not someone else who stood up to speak, it was the great general of their Longyan Empire, who had made countless contributions to the Longyan Empire and had a high prestige among the courts.

Moreover, he was deeply trusted by the emperor, and he had never been suppressed in any way. The two were extremely harmonious, which also made the Dragon Flame Empire more united than other countries.

When many ministers looked towards Lin Yue, they all showed a touch of shock.

On the other side, Lin Yue had already begun to let people put up sacrificial items.

It takes ten people to lift the giant cauldron, rare silk fabrics, the skulls of various rare beasts, and some unrecognizable rare objects.

Pieces of sacrifices were presented in the eyes of everyone, and many of them were extremely precious, even for the Longyan Empire, it was difficult to collect them. Seeing this scene, they suddenly knew that the scale of the sacrifice was extremely large. .

Lin Yue watched his attendants arrange the sacrificial offerings regularly according to his request, and couldn't help but recall what he saw yesterday.

In that sheepskin book, the messages left by every emperor of the Longyan Empire were recorded.

And such a passage is recorded in it.

"The blood of the dragon flames has been passed down through generations, and the heaven protects our generation, so the power of the blood can drive away disasters and bless your health..."

"Furthermore, the blood of dragon flame can heal all diseases, and it can also bring blessings to the entire empire by offering sacrifices to yourself..."

Lin Yue came back to his senses, and the surrounding sacrifices were all placed.

"It's time to start..." Lin Yue secretly said in his heart.

That's right, what Lin Yue plans to do now is not an ordinary sacrifice, but the sacrifice recorded in the sheepskin book, at the cost of his life.

The reason for making such a decision is that in these two days, Lin Yue has checked countless ancient books and finally found the record of the disease that is now appearing.

From Zhonglin's understanding, the only antidote that can cure this disease is the royal blood in his body, or the sacrificial effect equivalent to that of the king's blood.

The difference between the two lies in the scope of action. A drop of king's blood can only act on one person, but the sacrifice acts on the entire Dragon Flame Empire.

With the current situation in the southern part of the empire, even if all the blood in his body was drained, it was far from enough.

So after some thoughts, Lin Yue resolutely chose to hold this sacrifice at the cost of his own life.

Before that, Lin Yue had already appointed the next heir of the Longyan Empire, and had explained the current situation with the general, the half-white-haired old man, and entrusted him with the rest of the matter.

After learning of this, the general was extremely opposed at first.

Before becoming the emperor, Lin Yue had studied martial arts with the general for a long time, so the relationship between the two was very deep.

The general had no heirs, and he had always treated Lin Yue as his relatives.

This is why the kings of other countries and the generals who hold military power are suspicious of each other, but the scene in the Longyan Empire is completely different.

In the end, the general who understood the cause and effect of the matter had no choice but to agree.
