On the way to the raid.
Xu Qingnian’s expression was unusually determined.
Xu Qingnian would rather pay any price in order to solve the scourge of the Heteromancy.
The foreign arts were a knife hanging above one’s head, which could fall at any time.
To put it bluntly, he did not know when he would die, and it was a disease of his own heart.
If it could be eradicated, Xu Qingnian was naturally willing to spend whatever it took.
“Little friend, let me tell you then.”
“The place where you found old me is indeed not a Martial Emperor’s relic, it was just a fake relic that fooled the world.”
“The only thing I know about the real relic is that there is one, but I don’t know about it, and I know even less about the rest.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing replied as he told the truth.
“Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
Xu Qingnian frowned as he rode his flying horse, galloping quickly across the vault of heaven, and there was some blame in his tone.
But when these words were spoken, Dan Shen Gu Jing felt somewhat wronged.
“Little friend, it’s not that I’m looking down on you, think about it yourself, what realm were you at? Only a ninth rank.”
“Ninth rank in the martial dao, any random martial artist could kill you back and forth ten times, under those circumstances, could I tell you the truth?”
“If you do tell the truth, what can you do? Do you want to go back and continue your treasure hunt? Are you qualified to do so? What kind of treasure hunt are you going to do?”
Dan Shen Gu Jing said somewhat unpleasantly.
It wasn’t that he looked down on Xu Qingnian, but Xu Qingnian was just like that, a ninth grade martial artist, how could he compete for a true Martial Emperor’s relic treasure? How could he compete?
Once he said that, Xu Qingnian calmed down. He was a bit excited just now, but when he thought about it, the Dan Shen Ancient Scripture was indeed right.
If he had known at any time, he would have harmed himself, after all, his realm was really too low.
“The real relic, do you not know where it is either?”
Xu Qingnian inquired.
“I don’t know, the Martial Emperor was too suspicious at the time, let alone me, ask his daughter to see, I guess she doesn’t know either.”
“But there is a possibility.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing replied.
“What possibility?”
Xu Qingnian was a little anxious.
“It’s really possible that the Martial Emperor has hidden the secret on the Crown Prince.”
“If you don’t have any clue, you might as well find out where the Crown Prince of Great Wei is.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing replied thus.
“Hidden in the Crown Prince?”
“Where is the Crown Prince? Do you know?”
Xu Qingnian became somewhat curious.
“This old man knows, indeed it is in Ping’an County.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing replied, his tone very certain.
“Ping’an County?”
Xu Qingnian was a little dazed.
“En, it’s in Ping’an County, why else would the place where the treasure was left appear in Ping’an County?”
“So old me does suspect that the real treasure is most likely in Ping’an County as well.”
“However, this is only an old man’s guess, whether it is or not, I dare not be sure.”
The Dan Shen Ancient Scripture was clearly not wanting to stir up trouble, if he found it all was happy, if he couldn’t find it he didn’t want to be the object of Xu Qingnian’s anger.
“Is the Prince of Great Wei really in Ping’an County? Then wouldn’t the words I left on the stone wall be a mistake?”
Xu Qingnian smacked his lips a little.
“Yes, at that time, I was also curious and thought that you really knew something, but later I found out that you just wrote it blindly.”
“But you are really lucky, you can even write it down correctly by mistake, there is no one else’s luck.”
Speaking of this matter, Dan Shen Gu Jing could not help but sigh in admiration, Xu Qingnian had carved the words on the stone wall at that time, he saw them in his eyes and was curious at that time, how did Xu Qingnian know.
Only later did he realise that it was written blindly.
He didn’t know whether to call it good luck or bad luck.
“Oh no.”
For a moment, Xu Qingnian didn’t know what to say, he felt like he had done something stupid.
The White Cloth Sect had definitely been to the place of the Martial Emperor’s relics, and he had informed the White Cloth Sect of the information at a very early stage, so that if they learned of the whereabouts of the Martial Emperor’s relics, they would definitely do their utmost to find it.
It was indeed not a good thing for oneself.
Thinking of this, Xu Qingnian did not know what to say.
“If I scribble on it like this, they won’t suspect me, right?”
“Also, what’s the point of making a fake relic for the Martial Emperor for a good reason?”
Xu Qingnian enquired.
“No, there’s a four-year age difference between you and the Crown Prince, so you can’t be implicated in this.”
“As for the rest of the story, you’re thinking too highly of the Crown Prince, even the Emperor’s son has scraps, of course maybe you’re right again.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing rea*sured Xu Qingnian.
“As for the Martial Emperor making fake relics, after all is said and done, it’s still not a suspicious mind.”
As for the latter question, the Dan God Ancient Scripture looked somewhat ungrateful.
“Suspicious? What does the Martial Emperor need to be so suspicious for?”
“He’s an emperor, holding great power, and although he lost the Northern Expedition, he’s Emperor Wu, not Emperor Wen, so who can threaten him?”
Xu Qingnian was a little puzzled.
“Who says there’s no threat? Emperor Wu feels like he’s had problems with his brain since the Northern Expedition, and is frighteningly suspicious.”
“It’s often said that someone is out to get him, but there’s a secret if you listen, it’ll scare you if you tell it.”
When he said this, Dan Shen Gu Jing’s voice became a little lower.
“What’s the secret?”
Xu Qingnian was filled with curiosity.
“The Martial Emperor was actually killed by someone.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing slowly said.
With a single sentence, Xu Qingnian froze.
The Martial Emperor had been killed by someone?
This was truly a shocking secret.
To be honest, Xu Qingnian felt that it was normal for Emperor Wu to be a little suspicious in his later years, basically emperors who relied on killing to stabilize their imperial power would all have some suspicion in their later years.
For example, the great ancestor.
How many meritorious officials did he kill?
Of course it had to do with dynastic politics, some people did have to die and Taizu was not at ease until they did.
But Emperor Wu was different; he was Emperor Wu Cheng, the rightful heir, and became Emperor of the Great Wei surrounded by the six ministries and the kings.
Even though he had lost his fortune in his later years, which had cost him some of the hearts of the people, he was still the Emperor of Great Wei.
How could he possibly have been killed?
Xu Qingnian was silent, frozen on his flying horse, while Dan Shen Gu Jing continued to speak.
His voice grew lower and lower.
“Emperor Wu often had nightmares where he dreamed of demons coming to kill him, and at that time, there would often be some sounds of ghosts and wolves crying in the palace.”
“You should know this, it was actually the Martial Emperor’s ghostly cries, and did you know that the harem was buried in martyrdom?”
The Dan Shen Ancient Scripture tells this story of a time when this was a pungent secret, a true pungent secret.
“I know, after Emperor Wu’s death, the harem concubines were all martyred and the martyrdom ritual was re-enabled, and it was also personally enabled by the then Chancellor of Great Wei.”
Xu Qingnian nodded, he had read about this in the Great Wei Hidden Scripture Pavilion.
Ever since Emperor Wen succeeded to the throne, Great Wei had abolished the concubine martyrdom rite, which was considered to be harmful to heavenly justice, so this act was also praised by later generations, including Confucianists who had always praised Emperor Wen with this matter.
This act was praised by later generations, including the Confucianists, who praised Emperor Wen.
However, when Emperor Wu introduced the rite of martyrdom again, the Prime Minister of the Great Wei himself did so.
The Prime Minister was not Chen Zhengru, but another great scholar.
So this becomes a curious matter.
How could a great Confucian benevolence re-instate the rite of martyrdom? But it may have become a matter of suspicion anyway because he feared that the harem would interfere with political affairs, and so he came up with this subterfuge.
Now, listening to the Dan Shen Gu Jing, it seemed that there was another hidden agenda.
“Do you know why?”
Dan Shen Gu Jing continued to ask.
“Why?”
Xu Qingnian was indeed curious.
“Because these concubines were all killed by the Martial Emperor himself.”
“And the means were terrible.”
“I remember very clearly that it was in the middle of the night when some concubines were sleeping and heard the sound of gnawing.”
“When they woke up in a daze, they saw a face of the Martial Emperor with blood on the corners of his mouth, an extremely strange and distorted smile, and a gurgling sound coming from his throat.”
“Immediately after being accompanied by an extremely miserable scream, this concubine died.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing slowly spoke out, his voice was very low, and when he said this, it was even more creepy.
For a moment, Xu Qingnian’s head went a little numb.
Just ask, if a person was asleep and suddenly heard the sound of clicking and gnawing, woke up in a daze and saw a face with a twisted and strange smile, and the other party’s mouth was full of blood, who wouldn’t come scared silly if it was anyone else?
“This can’t be.”
Xu Qingnian took a deep breath, he didn’t believe it at all.
The Martial Emperor was suspicious, it wasn’t like he had a brain problem, why scare people like that?
“Impossible?”
“Do you know why the martyrdom rite was re-instated? It’s because all the concubines in the harem were killed clean by Emperor Wu, and each one was extremely hideous before they died, with fear in their eyes, and they couldn’t rest in peace.”
“And the crown prince’s birth mother, that’s how she died. At that time, I suspected for a while that Emperor Wu was possessed by an evil spirit, otherwise, I wouldn’t have believed it.”
“But all these things were seen by my own eyes, and it is fortunate that I am an artifact and have no feelings, otherwise I would have been scared to death most of the night.”
“The prime minister of the current dynasty was also frightened and got a heart attack, he died in the same year as Emperor Wu, if you don’t believe me ask the current prime minister and see if he knows about it.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing’s tone also gradually returned to normal, and even carried some dissatisfaction.
“No wonder everything was concealed in Emperor Wu’s later years.”
“But the Great Confucian was all scared? How terrifying must that be.”
Xu Qingnian frowned, why did it feel like things were getting more and more complicated and scary ah.
“God knows, anyway, after the Northern Expedition, Emperor Wu was not normal.”
“But Emperor Wu was also normal for a while, he was calm for a while before he died and told me something.”
“He was killed, the Great Wei Dynasty has a hand, an invisible hand, and all future emperors of Great Wei will have to suffer like this, unless a new sage emerges in Great Wei, then none of them will be able to live well.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing slowly spoke out.
“The man behind the curtain?”
“Who exactly is it that was able to control the Palace of Literature and kill the Great Wei Martial Emperor at the same time.”
At this moment, Xu Qingnian was truly curious, who on earth could do this?
It was not enough to control the Palace of Literature, but to get the Great Wei Emperor killed?
What kind of person could have done this?
Xu Qingnian was curious, really too curious.
But what Xu Qingnian understood even more was that before he became a saint, I was afraid that he could not fight with this man, otherwise, even the Great Wei Martial Emperor had died in this man’s hands.
Otherwise, even the Great Wei Martial Emperor had died at the hands of this man, and it was as if he was just an ant.
The good thing was that although he had not become a First Grade Saint, he was at least a Half-Saint. The other party was obviously unwilling to make a move, not because he did not dare, but because there was no need to do so, and it was impossible for him not to be exposed when he made a move against a Half-Saint.
Perhaps he had already struck, but they had all been defused one by one by himself.
Unless he revealed himself, it would probably be difficult to really mess with himself.
Of course, it could not be ruled out that the other party did not care about him at all, but rather plotted his own plan, and he was just a little variable in the plan, a little dispensable variable.
Rubbing his temples, Xu Qingnian could not help but continue to ask.
“Did Emperor Wu say anything when he was sober in his later years? Did he mention anything important?”
Xu Qingnian asked.
“Mentioned something, the Crown Prince was secretly escorted out by Emperor Wu, something that only two people theoretically knew about, but before he died he told me that the man behind the curtain also knew about it.”
“Only the secret that the crown prince hid, the other party couldn’t detect it, before Emperor Wu died, he went to the clan temple and invited the Tai Zu killing intent to be sealed inside the crown prince, so even if the mastermind behind the curtain found the crown prince, it wouldn’t do anything.”
“So there are two possibilities, one, to leave the Crown Prince alone as a dark son, or two, to adopt the Crown Prince as a bright son, the second is more likely, except that if he adopts the Crown Prince, or has contact with him.”
“The Martial Emperor would also know the first time, before he died, he visited Ping’an County and placed me in the fake relic, at that time he was sure that the other party knew who the Crown Prince was, but never showed himself.”
“Don’t underestimate the Martial Emperor, he left a backhand, it’s just a pity that the other party was too patient, the Martial Emperor didn’t even know who was behind it before he died.”
The Dan Shen Ancient Scripture gave a reply and told some more peculiar secrets.
But when all was said and done, Xu Qingnian was still a little confused.
“What did he want?”
“Why did he want to harm the Martial Emperor?”
“What did the Martial Emperor hide? It can’t just be the Demon Subduing Divine Stone, right?”
“Is it the Midcontinent Immortal Collection?”
Xu Qingnian asked all the doubts in her heart in one breath.
However, Dan Shen Gu Jing was a little depressed.
“If you ask me, how would I know so much, but you even know about the Midcontinent Immortal Collection? It seems that this empress is interested in you, she dares to tell you such secrets, treating you as one of her own.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing said.
“Senior, don’t joke about it, say it seriously.”
At this time, Xu Qingnian didn’t have any heart to joke around, as he felt more and more that a heavenly situation had appeared in front of him.
A person, or rather an organization, had been laying out for hundreds of years, from the time of the Great Ancestor, all the way to the present, enough to both kill the Great Wei Wu Di and reach out to the Wen Gong.
Xu Qingnian was more inclined to be an organisation.
If it was one person, then …… Xu Qingnian couldn’t imagine who could have done this.
Great Wei had a First Grade Martial Artist.
This should not be forgotten.
“It’s very likely that it has something to do with the Midcontinent Immortal Collection, but it’s something that’s not true, there’s no need to make such a big deal about it, Martial Emperors have secrets too, and everyone has their own secrets.”
“Actually, rather than saying that someone is harming him, I’m more partial to one possibility.”
The Dan Shen Ancient Scripture began to really analyse.
“What possibility?”
Xu Qingnian asked.
“The Martial Emperor has practiced a foreign art.”
The Dan God Ancient Scripture slowly spoke out, its tone incomparably calm.
But this answer, once again, silenced Xu Qingnian.
The Martial Emperor had practiced a foreign art?
This was impossible.
It was more shocking than all the news Xu Qingnian had heard before.
“Why do you say that?”
Only Xu Qingnian did not deny it, but asked Dan Shen Gu Jing, since Dan Shen Gu Jing dared to say this, it was enough to prove one thing, he must have a basis for it.
“Why would he go crazy if he doesn’t cultivate foreign arts? Pretending to be a god every night and scaring the concubines alive to death? This is the phenomenon of demonization.”
“Where is there a mastermind behind the scenes that could influence the Martial Emperor? In the end, it’s that he was possessed and had lost his mind, just like a madman. Emperor Wu’s funeral was also very simple, basically he was rushed into burial, the court didn’t say anything, and the Palace of Literature didn’t mention it either.”
“Doesn’t that make people suspicious? Maybe the Palace of Literature has known for a long time that the Martial Emperor practiced a different art, but this matter is too big for the Palace of Literature to suppress, and if it really leaked out, how many people would take the risk?”
“Another thing, haven’t you been looking for the Demon Suppressing Divine Stone? This thing should be able to suppress the supernatural arts, right? You are so anxious to find it, so it must be related to the supernatural arts, so you don’t need to hide this from old me.”
“So, I ask you, what is the Martial Emperor doing with this thing?”
Dan Shen Gu Jing said something that rendered Xu Qingnian speechless.
An emperor who stayed up at night and scared his concubines alive to death, wasn’t that just losing his mind? And what’s more, with the sound of gnawing and a twisted, grotesque smile on his face, isn’t that just being possessed by a demon?
The demon stone was a good example of a good reason.
Only Xu Qingnian didn’t dare to think further.
And Dan Shen Gu Jing continued to speak.
“But what really made me suspect him of cultivating a different art was that he had never sought me out to refine a realm-breaking pellet.”
“Because when he sought me out, he was already of the second rank, and he did not ask for a first-ranked realm-breaking pellet, seemingly knowing that he was bound to die.”
“How old was the Martial Emperor when he inherited the throne? Twenty-one years old, when I met him, he was only twenty-two years old, and he was already a Second Grade Martial Artist.”
“And no one knew that.”
“Even if he was the Emperor of the Great Wei, no matter how gifted he was, becoming a second-grade martial artist at the age of twenty-one? How many people under the heavens can do that?”
“And on what basis could he do it? But what truly terrifies the old man, do you know what?”
Dan Shen Ancient Scripture spoke with a tone of voice as he reached this point.
“What is it?”
Xu Qingnian asked.
“Why.”
“After the shame of Jingcheng.”
“A Martial Emperor has appeared in Great Wei?”
Dan Shen Gu Jing’s voice was icy cold.
Once this was said, Xu Qingnian was utterly and completely at a loss for what to say.
This was because from what the Dan God Ancient Scripture was saying, a Martial Emperor practiced a different art, and it was highly likely that his father had done it.
Not true.
Xu Qingnian’s pupils suddenly dilated as he looked at the Dan Shen Ancient Scripture and said.
“You mean to say that the Great Wei collected the people who died from Jing Cheng Shame to refine something to enhance the strength of the Martial Emperor, wanting to create a Second Grade?”
“So, Jingcheng Shame was not suddenly lost, but the emperor’s intention?”
Xu Qingnian heard and understood the meaning of the Dan Shen Ancient Scripture.
The latter did not answer, but this lack of answer was actually an answer.
“No, this is absolutely impossible.”
“There’s no way the Great Wei Emperor would do this, they don’t need to do this, it’s unnecessary to do this, sacrificing so many people to create a second rank, is this possible? Is it necessary? Does it make sense?”
Xu Qingnian vetoed it outright.
He simply didn’t believe it this time, because it was completely unreasonable.
Jingcheng Shame had broken the backbone of the people of Great Wei, and this would not be said.
The main thing was that the sacrifice was so great just to create a second rank out of it? It’s not like Greater Wei doesn’t have a first rank?
Isn’t that wrong in the head?
It’s not cost-effective at all. If you can create three first-rate products, or even two first-rate products, there’s no problem. At least in terms of benefits, it’s not a loss, but what’s the difference between this and demons?
Xu Qingnian really didn’t believe it.
If this were true, what kind of national luck would the Great Wei Dynasty have?
The more this was said, the more outrageous it became.
“Alas, I’ve said that this is just a guess, whether it is or not, it’s none of my business.”
“But you should pay attention, there are many things that the old man doesn’t know and neither do you, you can only guess.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing seemed to not want to say anything more with himself and wanted to stop this topic.
Xu Qingnian also did not continue to dwell on this topic, but returned to the very first question.
“Then where does senior guess the real Martial Emperor’s relic to be?”
Xu Qingnian asked.
“I don’t know… I’ll tell you if I know.”
“It’s just that the Martial Emperor had a habit of putting things he liked in a wooden box and putting them in the most conspicuous place.”
It was true that the Ancient Scripture of the Dan God did not know where it was.
But he named one of Martial Emperor’s habits and told Xu Qingnian to think for himself.
“Senior, do you mean to say that the real Martial Emperor’s relics could possibly be underneath the fake one?”
Xu Qingnian said curiously.
“I don’t know, think for yourself, where does the old man know everything?”
“Right, having said all that, the key thing hasn’t been said.”
“The Second Grade Realm Breaking Dan recipe, I’m telling you now, it’s just three things, it’s quite easy to find.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing didn’t want to answer Xu Qingnian’s question anymore, instead he brought up the Second Grade Realm Breaking Dan.
“No need for now, junior plans to refine a First Grade Realm Breaking Pill.”
Xu Qingnian was confident that he didn’t need the Second Grade Realm Breaking Pill anymore, since the foreign arts could be solved, it wasn’t difficult to rely on them to break through to the Second Grade before solving them.
It wasn’t that he was desperate, it was just that Dan Shen Ancient Scripture’s asking price was too fierce.
He dared to ask the Pill King for the sixth grade and the fifth grade, and when he reached the fourth grade, he directly asked himself to find dragon blood, so what would the second grade Dan recipe be? Xu Qingnian had a bit of a number in his heart.
“Refining the first grade?”
“Very good, young man, you have a dream, the first grade only needs to find two things.”
When Dan Shen Gu Jing heard that Xu Qingnian did not intend to ask for a Second Grade Realm Breaking Dan, he was not the least bit upset, instead he was extremely excited to introduce the First Grade Realm Breaking Dan recipe to Xu Qingnian.
“Senior, there’s no need for that first, let’s wait until we need it.”
Xu Qingnian rejected it outright, and then stopped paying attention to the Dan God Ancient Scripture.
There was so much going on right now, a whole lot of things waiting for him to find, where was the time to prepare a First Grade Realm Breaking Dan?
“Little friend, you’re not being martial virtuous, I’ve worked so hard to tell you so much and tell you so many secrets, and you run away after using the old man? You’re really ruthless, you’re on par with a Martial Emperor.”
Dan Shen Ancient Scripture was a little depressed, he had said a whole lot and many secrets, but he didn’t expect Xu Qingnian to not talk about Martial Virtues at all, and to leave after using himself?
It was really ruthless.
Ignoring the Dan Shen Ancient Scripture, Xu Qingnian’s mind was all on the ‘True-Martial Emperor’s Relic’.
As for the secrets of the Martial Emperor, including these rumors, Xu Qingnian didn’t believe too much, these matters were not his turn to interfere, whether there was a curtain or not Xu Qingnian didn’t care, anyway, let’s solve our own problems first.
If not, what’s the point of knowing more?
The real culprit behind the curtain can do nothing?
If you are dead, everything is superfluous.
On the way to Ping’an County, Xu Qingnian pondered two things.
Firstly, where the True Martial Emperor’s relics were.
Secondly, who was the secret son of the White Cloth Sect?
It was only difficult to find out the true Martial Emperor’s relics directly, without any slightest clue.
But there was one person who might know.
This person is the secret son of the White Cloth Sect.
The White Cloth Sect had two pawns in Ping’an County, one was Constable Chen, this one knew himself.
The other one had been hidden in the shadows, and was told by Constable Chen inadvertently.
Sheriff Chen was of low rank in the White Clothes Sect, so there were many things he did not know.
But the other dark son was different. This guy was definitely not an idle person and knew a lot of things, perhaps he knew where the real Martial Emperor’s relics were.
Instead of aimlessly searching for the Martial Emperor’s relics, it would be better to find out this dark son.
For a moment, Xu Qingnian closed his eyes as he kept thinking about who this dark son was.
From the time he was struck by the cold poison, every single thing that had happened in Ping’an County, Xu Qingnian began to try to remember, including every single person he had met.
All the memories came to mind.
Xu Qingnian was also thinking about it.
When he himself first returned to Ping’an County, he drew the White Clothes among the restaurants according to the handover signal from the White Clothes Sect.
In the first two days, no one was encountered, and it was the third day that Constable Chen came.
With the arrival of Sheriff Chen, he took the initiative to say the secret code, and he could not pick it up himself, so he used the Great Magic of Entering Dreams to sneak into Sheriff Chen’s dream.
After learning the docking code, he then docked with Sheriff Chen, and it was because of this that he knew there was another secret agent in Ping’an County.
The secret son of the White Cloth Sect was of a higher rank than Constable Chen, and as to what rank it was, Constable Chen was not sure.
He only knew that he was of a higher rank than him.
The other side knew about Constable Chen, while Constable Chen did not know about the other side.
But the problem was that he had drawn white clothes, the other party saw it and was bound to meet with him, but the other party did not come to him.
This is a bit strange.
It was hard to see that he was not Constable Chen, so he did not come out to identify himself?
“No, it can’t be.”
“If I was someone who came down from the White Cloth Sect and had something to look for him, there’s no way he wouldn’t have come out.”
“Unless there is one possibility, and that is that the other party is extremely high up, so high that only a few people can have contact with him.”
Xu Qingnian guessed in his mind.
But he soon overturned this possibility himself.
“A rebel organisation, all the more rigorous and careful, even if this person is of extremely high status, if he sees a secret code, he should come out to meet, even if he comes out to have a look, there is always no problem to see who he is, right?”
Thinking of this, Xu Qingnian began to recall everything that had happened in the restaurant at that time.
Everything came back to mind.
Every single thing appeared clearly in the middle of his mind.
After about a little over half an hour.
Xu Qingnian did not think of who it was, but he had already arrived in Ping’an County.
After thinking about it, Xu Qingnian disguised himself and went straight to the Ping’an Inn, threw some scrap of silver over, and then followed the junior to the guest room.
He did not go to his master first, nor did he investigate anything first, but rested at the Ping’an Inn for a few days.
He had to think it over, carefully, not letting go of every detail.
It was imperative to find this dark son as soon as possible, and when he did everything would be fine.
It was so much better than searching aimlessly on his own.
And so it was.
Little by little, time pa*sed.
In the blink of an eye, two days have pa*sed.
And at the same time.
Great Wei Kyoto.
Prince Huaining’s residence.
Prince Huaining looked a little despondent as he sat on the tai shi chair, quietly looking at the masked man in front of him.
“Is this the timing you were talking about?”
“It’s not too ridiculous, is it?”
“Great Wei has produced a half-saint, the Palace of Literature has seceded, and not only has it not suppressed the country’s fortunes, but now it has even been allowed to coalesce into the Great Wei Dragon Cauldron, the people’s public opinion is high, at this moment, even if we wanted to rebel, we would not dare to do so.”
“This is the time?”
The first few words of Prince Huaining were fine, but when he came to the end, he stood up violently and looked at the masked man, his voice roaring with rage.
He was Prince Huaining, once a Prince with military power in his hands, so high in status that the Empress had to give himself courtesy.
But what about now?
Without his military power, he had been waiting for the right time, only to find that half of his life’s planning was in vain.
Who else could have endured this?
“Your Majesty, don’t be angry.”
“At this time in Great Wei, it may seem like this is a bad thing, yet how is this not a good thing for us?”
The masked man remained calm as he looked at Prince Huaining and said so.
But as soon as he said this, Prince Huaining directly threw out all the things on the table and looked at the other party, his gaze cold.
“Good for you, you son of a B*tch.”
“The Palace of Literature has seceded, and Great Wei has produced a new saint, a twenty-year-old saint, and this Xu Qingnian himself has public opinion on his side, such that Great Wei’s state is now flourishing and forming a dragon tripod.”
“Great Wei did not even form the Dragon Tripod during its heyday, but now it has formed it, and with time, not to say ten or twenty years, but perhaps three or five years, Great Wei will surpa*s its former self.”
“Is this still a good thing?”
“All the va*sal kings are now as docile as dogs, doing whatever they are told to do. If the king were to ask them to rebel now, I’m afraid they would write a memorial and accuse the old man.”
“Is that a good thing?”
“Do you take this king for a fool?”
Prince Huaining directly exploded, not because he had no city spirit, but this masked man’s speech was really too brainless.
It had come to this point, and he was still saying it was a good thing?
Winning, winning, winning mahjong?
Are you out of your mind?
Prince Huining was now regretting, not for offending Xu Qingnian, but for why he had reached a consensus with this group of people.
Now he had lost his wife and his army, and he had to be played as a fool? Who else would not be angry?
Hearing Prince Huaining’s angry voice, the masked man did not feel a trace of anger, instead he spoke in a calm tone.
“Your Majesty, please calm your anger.”
“I would like to make a few points, and I hope that Your Majesty will think carefully about them.”
“Firstly, what we are plotting is not the Great Wei Dynasty, but the national fortune, and now that the national fortune has formed the Dragon Tripod, how is it not a good thing for us? If Your Majesty takes the throne, we must also do our best to help Your Majesty, to govern the country and develop Great Wei, the purpose of which is for the sake of the Dragon Tripod of the National Fortune.”
“Now Xu Qingnian has directly allowed the national luck of Great Wei to form the Dragon Cauldron, which is considered a great favour to us, may I ask Your Majesty, is this a good thing?”
The masked man spoke up and said so.
When this was said, Prince Huai Ning sneered, but he did not continue to curse anymore, but was silent.
“Secondly, what the king is worried about in the final analysis is still the handing over of the military talisman, the worry about the va*sal kings everywhere, the worry about not being able to rebel, but in reality, even if the military talisman is handed over, the king can still deploy a lot of troops.”
“It’s not a bad thing if the va*sal kings everywhere are afraid, at least they won’t compete with the king for the throne, as for the matter of rebellion, who says that rebellion must require the va*sal kings of the world to rise up?”
“Couldn’t we just, seize the door?”
The masked man slowly spoke out.
“Seize the door?”
“Is this not a mutiny? If I really did that, I’m afraid the world would not allow me to do so, right?”
Prince Huining said calmly, pointing out the key issue.
If the va*sal kings were to revolt, this would be the general trend, but if he were to lead the troops to seize the door, then he would be inheriting the throne in name only.
This was definitely not an option.
Only the masked man shook his head and looked at Prince Huaining and said.
“Your Highness is overly concerned, taking the door directly would definitely not work, but what if we add the legacy of Emperor Wu’s son?”
The masked man said slowly.
At these words, Prince Huaining’s face changed.
“The Martial Emperor’s Legacy Son?”
“You have found the Martial Emperor’s Legacy Son?”
Prince Huaining’s eyes revealed a refined aura as he was somewhat surprised.
“En, we have found the Martial Emperor’s Legacy Son, and as long as the king is able to succeed in seizing the door, the Martial Emperor’s Legacy Son will appear, and nominally the king will not be a rebel, but will return a clean slate to Great Wei.”
“And we will also make the Legacy of the Martial Emperor honestly concede the throne to you, Your Majesty, so that everything will be logical.”
The masked man said this.
But Prince Huai Ning shook his head and said.
“What proof do you have that you have found the last son of Emperor Wu.”
“Also, now that the Great Wei Kingdom is flourishing and has the help of Heaven, is it that easy to take the door?”
Prince Huining was not stupid and said directly.
“We will not bring out the evidence, Your Majesty, you do not need to suspect anything, since we dare to say these words, we have the strength, otherwise, it would not be possible for Your Majesty to take the risk.”
“After all, such a great plan cannot be accomplished without Your Majesty.”
“As for the matter of the Great Wei’s national fortune, it is easy to solve, before we take over the gate, we will step in and suppress Xu Qingnian, if he dies, the Great Wei’s national fortune will definitely be damaged.”
“At the critical moment, the king launched the change of seizing the door, occupying the heavenly time and location, it is difficult to lose.”
The other party spoke with an incomparably confident tone.
But Prince Huaining did not take the bait, but spoke directly.
“This king is short of men, and relying on this king alone, he can at most suppress the Eight Sects of the Capital Army, but what about those immortal gates? The Immortal Dao forces have been arriving one after another these past two days, just to weaken the va*sal kings everywhere and suppress the other forces.”
“The capital soldiers can be suppressed, what about the immortal gates?”
“There is also the Great Wei One Piece, how can we solve it?”
Prince Huaining said so.
The latter looked at Prince Huai Ning and smiled faintly.
“Your Majesty is joking, relying on your Majesty’s military strength, suppressing the palace is not a difficult task, after all, your Majesty has some relations with the White Cloth Sect as well, asking them to help, there is a ten percent chance of winning.”
The masked man spoke, while a look of surprise flashed across Prince Huaining’s eyes.
It seemed that he had not expected that the other party even knew about his collusion with the White Cloth Sect.
However, he did not explain too much and instead pondered.
After a while, Prince Huaining spoke out.
“It’s fine not to produce evidence of the Martial Emperor’s legacy son, but you have to tell me how to kill Xu Qingnian.”
“Otherwise, this king will definitely not take any chances.”
Prince Huai Ning spoke out.
What he was curious about was how the gang planned to target Xu Qingnian.
“In eight days, when the Hao Ran Dynasty is established, the will of the Zhu Sheng will be revived, and the Zhu Sheng will execute Xu Qingnian, Your Majesty, is this enough?”
The man in the mask spoke out a spicy secret.
When this was said, Prince Huai Ning was moved.
Reviving Zhu Sheng’s will? To kill Xu Qingnian?
This was indeed enough.
Even if Xu Qingnian was strong, could he be stronger than the Vermilion Saint?
Obviously, it was impossible.
Thinking of this, Prince Huai Ning took a deep breath and looked at the other party.
“This king is not well read, so don’t lie to this king.”
He said so.
“Please rest a*sured, Your Majesty, we naturally will not.”
The masked man spoke.
Afterwards, Prince Huai Ning’s tone was much gentler and after a few words of small talk, the latter disappeared.
Since the disappearance of the Great Wei Wen Palace, this masked man had become more and more casual, what the other party was from, he was not sure, but now he gradually understood some of it.
Only he didn’t care about any of this, as long as he could achieve his purpose, everything was fine.
At that moment, Prince Huaining’s gaze, too, fell on the southwest.
That was the pacifying royal residence.
At this very moment.
Inside Kyoto.
In the Ping Chaos King’s Residence.
As Xu Qingnian was crowned king for the first time, the Marquis of Ping Chaos’ residence also immediately changed its plaque and became the King’s residence.
Luckily, the empress had the foresight to build it directly according to the standards of the state duke, plus the academy, so it was expanded quite a bit.
Nowadays there is no problem at all in changing the name to the King’s Mansion.
In the courtyard.
Chen Xinghe slowly put the books in his hands, and for a moment, he was a little confused.
Ever since Xu Qingnian had crossed over, Chen Xinghe felt more and more that learning literature would not help his junior brother.
Therefore, Chen Xinghe decided to abandon literature.
But what to abandon literature? Chen Xinghe thought about it for a long time, but he could not figure it out.
At first, he thought of developing agriculture, increasing the food production of Great Wei, and learning from Xu Qingnian.
But after reading a few books, he found that he could not understand them at all.
Later on, he read a few books on industrial tools, thinking of inventing something to indirectly help Great Wei and also help Xu Qingnian.
But he could not even read a single book.
At this moment, Chen Xinghe was really a bit depressed.
He became confused and had doubts.
What exactly was he suitable for?
Was he only suitable for playing the bleep?
But the problem was that he didn’t pretend to be much either.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to pretend, it was entirely because his own senior brother didn’t give him the chance.
Thinking about this, Chen Xinghe felt a bit uncomfortable, he just wanted to learn something properly and pretend to behave properly.
God, can you let yourself pretend to be one, even if it’s a hard one?
That would make his dream come true.
Chen Xinghe thought to himself.
It was at this moment.
A figure, slowly appeared in the courtyard.
It was Zhao Yuan’s figure.
As soon as he appeared, he then couldn’t help but frown.
Because he noticed that Xu Qingnian was not here.
And at that moment, Chen Xinghe happened to turn around and saw Zhao Yuan.
He did not know Zhao Yuan.
Although Zhao Yuan and Wu Ming were suppressing the Palace of Literature, it was just that the two of them were suppressing above the Palace of Literature and there was no picture, so people only knew that a First Grade Martial Artist had struck.
However, they did not know what a First Grade Martial Artist looked like at all.
Naturally, Chen Xinghe didn’t know either.
Looking at Zhao Yuan.
The latter was still of a good nature and opened his mouth, wanting to explain the purpose of his visit.
Only a cold voice rang out.
“How dare you.”
“What is the crime for trespa*sing in the king’s residence?”
The voice rang out.
It was filled with a cold intent.
It was Chen Xinghe’s voice.
At this moment, Chen Xinghe was excited inside.
Because he knew that he was going to fulfill his dream.
