In the imperial palace of Wei State, according to regulations, horses are not allowed to ride.
Zhao Hongming and others dismounted obediently and did not violate this rule.
The guard in front of the palace who was guarding the Meridian Gate stopped them and shouted sternly: "Who is here, breaking into the Meridian Gate?"
Zhao Hongming put his hands behind his back and looked at them coldly without saying anything.
Chang Wu Bing, who was beside him, flashed his token and said sternly: "Open your dog eyes, this is His Highness the Fifth Prince."
When the two guards saw the token with the word "Five" engraved on it, they couldn't help but be a little surprised when they knew that the person in front of them was the fifth prince.
The guards who picked up the princes have not set off yet. Logically speaking, they will not arrive until tomorrow. Why did the fifth prince come back early?
Fortunately, both of them were very sensible and didn't ask any more questions. They said with sincerity and fear: "I am ignorant of my humble position. I bumped into His Highness. I hope His Highness will forgive me."
Zhao Hongming did not take advantage of this, and said calmly: "You two, can I return to the palace now?"
"This is natural, please, Your Highness."
The two guards stepped aside to clear a path.
Returning to the palace again, Zhao Hongming found that there were many changes in the palace from the last time he left.
The palace walls have been repainted and renovated, and the overall look is brand new.
However, if you look deeper, you will find that there are subtle cracks in many places on the floor, and there are many dark red traces hidden in the gaps.
When I was in the first palace, I heard that there was a lot of turmoil in the Daliang Palace, which was finally suppressed by Emperor Jian'an.
Now it seems that the battle that day was probably extremely fierce.
After Zhao Hongming returned to the palace, he did not rush back to his residence immediately, but went straight to Qianqing Palace.
Qianqing Palace.
Zhao Mixu is reviewing the memorial.
Feng Dabao, who was on the side, walked in from outside the door, leaned next to Jian'an Emperor Zhao Meixu, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the Fifth Highness has returned early."
"Um?"
Emperor Jian'an Zhao Meixu frowned and said in surprise: "Didn't I say I would pick them up tomorrow? Why did I come back early alone?"
Feng Dabao whispered a few words.
Emperor Jian'an's face became increasingly cold.
"It seems that I haven't killed enough people before. There are always people who like to eat them inside and out. You can deal with them tonight."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Feng Dabao took two steps back and said, "The people below said that His Highness the Fifth Prince has entered the palace and is walking towards Qianqing Palace. He must be paying his respects to His Majesty."
"Lao Wu is too tolerant and indifferent to fame and wealth. I haven't had a good chat with him yet. It seems that I have neglected my duty as a father. I really want to meet him."
After a moment of burning incense, the guards outside Qianqing Palace walked into the main hall and said: "Your Majesty, the five highnesses outside the door have asked to see you and said that they want to pay their respects to Your Majesty."
"Announce him to come in."
"yes."
"Xuan Wu Prince Zhao Hongming enters the palace."
In the sound of singing, Zhao Hongming walked into the main hall and saluted: "My son, I pay homage to my father. I wish my father a long life."
Jian'an Emperor Zhao Meixu, who was sitting on the long desk, raised his head and looked at Zhao Hongming, feeling that he was familiar yet strange.
If it weren't for those things, he might not really be able to pay attention to this little-known son.
He lightly stomped his feet, and the Seven Stars Absolute Heaven Formation was activated, isolating the inside and outside of this place.
Zhao Meixu made sure that the formation had been activated and the news would not be leaked before he asked: "Why did you come back suddenly?"
Zhao Hongming suddenly knelt down and said: "Father, it is Elder Li from the main sect who wants to kill my son, so I have to come back early. I hope my father will make the decision for my son and protect him."
Zhao Meixu, who is in the palace and has a large killing array, is nearly invincible as long as the country's fortunes continue.
Even if Bi Lingjun comes with a god-demon weapon, he may not be able to get any benefits in front of Zhao Meixu who has the formation.
An elder in the martial arts realm wouldn't even think about it.
Therefore, as long as Zhao Meixu intends to protect him, he will be absolutely safe in the palace.
Zhao Mixu suddenly stood up from his seat, walked a few steps around the long desk and said, "Why did Elder Li from the main sect want to kill you?"
Zhao Hongming raised his head, looked directly into Zhao Mixu's eyes, and said seriously: "Because my son is a once-in-a-century martial arts genius!"
Yes, he showed his cards and stopped pretending.
Zhao Meixu already knew the details about him, so there was no point in pretending to be confused. It was better to admit it openly.
If this can be exchanged for a period of peace, it will be worth it no matter how you look at it.
"Father, you should know what kind of challenge the existence of Er Chen will pose to the current order. How could the martial arts forces let Er Chen leave?"
Zhao Meixu pondered for a while and asked, "Where is your state now?"
"Second-grade Xiantian!"
Zhao Meixu and Feng Dabao on the side all took a breath when they heard this.
A fourteen-year-old innate warrior, if word of this spreads, the whole world will be overthrown.
Although Zhao Meixu was somewhat mentally prepared, when he actually heard it, his chest still beat violently.
"How did you do it? How do you practice martial arts when the national destiny is so pressing?"
Regarding this issue, Zhao Hongming had already spoken out. He said: "My son and his eighth brother were playing in the imperial garden. They caught something that looked like a dragon but not a dragon, something that looked like a fish but not a fish. They later cooked it into soup. I was drunk by my son."
"After that, I felt that the fate of the country had less constraints on me, and my martial arts practice improved rapidly. That's why my father showed mercy and allowed me to learn martial arts."
When Zhao Hongming said this, he was half truthful and half false.
The same thing was changed a little by him.
Seeing that Emperor Jian'an did not respond for a long time, Zhao Hongming looked up strangely and found that Emperor Jian'an's face was extremely excited at this time. His hands were clenched into fists, and the joints were turning white.
As if he breathed a sigh of relief, Emperor Jian'an asked: "Have you seen a few fish in the well?"
"Sanjo!"
Emperor Jian'an suddenly smiled and said: "Yes, that's it. What you ate is one-third of the dragon veins of my great Wei Dynasty. Hahaha, it helped you suppress the fate of the country, so you can practice so smoothly."
Dragon vein? !
Zhao Hongming was slightly shocked.
He didn't expect that the silver spirit child he ate had such a big background.
But this is good, it can make Emperor Jian'an think about it and justify it, so that he won't waste any more words.
Jian'an Emperor Zhao Meixu stopped smiling, and when he looked at Zhao Hongming again, his mood became extremely complicated.
In the past, he had never paid much attention to the fifth prince in front of him. He even disliked him and felt that he was not useful.
But he never expected that one of Wei's dragon veins would choose him in the end.
After the first generation of King Wei, in more than two hundred years of history, the royal family of Wei finally gave birth to a talented warrior.
"Get up." When Zhao Meixu looked at Zhao Hongming again, everything felt different.
He said in a slightly apologetic tone: "Lao Wu, I was the one who made you suffer before. Eunuch Feng."
"The old slave is here."
"From now on, I will give the fifth prince an additional five hundred taels in salary, and in addition, I will give you ten wishing stones every month."
"Old slave obeys the order."
"Thank you, Father, for your love." Zhao Hongming said respectfully.
"If nothing happens, I will leave."
"Go ahead."
After Zhao Hongming withdrew, Zhao Mixu lifted the restriction: "Feng Daban, do you think the fifth prince is very similar to me?"
The first subscription result came out, it was almost a thousand dollars, and then the 24-hour subscription for Chapter 82 was a thousand dollars, which was lower than expected. The editor asked me to increase the amount of updates. I plan to write more on Saturdays and Sundays, and then try to update three times a day.
