Jinyiwei, the deepest part of the prison.
Wanli was freed from the shackles despite not receiving an imperial edict from Emperor Jiajing.
Lan Daoxing, the great master of the Ming Dynasty, ah no, it should be the loyal minister of Daxia. Regardless of the scars all over his body, he knelt down in front of Prince Wanli.
"My lord, from this ancient time, I bow to my emperor, long live him."
Prince Wanli did not shy away and accepted this great gift in a grand manner.
After the ceremony, he spoke: "Thank you for your hard work."
Even friendship, family affection, and love may not be able to withstand the test of thousands of years.
But loyalty is eternal?
Zhonggu knelt on the ground with a respectful posture.
"Back then, His Majesty and Cheng Tang joined forces to protect Wei Chen's soul with secret methods from the influence of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. Over the past ten thousand years, Wei Chen's body has experienced nearly a hundred reincarnations, but the memory of his soul has never been erased."
"I am fortunate to have fulfilled my mission. When your majesty reincarnates, I can finally complete my mission and help your majesty merge the past and present lives."
Wanli also seemed very moved.
He helped Zhonggu up with his own hands and said in a gentle voice: "Zhonggu, my dear, you and Guan Longpang are indeed my most trusted ministers."
Always excited!
"His Majesty once again reigns over the Nine Provinces, and he is also the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty."
"As long as Your Majesty wins the supreme position of the Ming Dynasty, it will be easy to reestablish the Xia Dynasty!"
Wanli smiled, but his eyes were calm.
"This matter may not be easy."
Zhonggu's face darkened when he heard this.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"With Emperor Jiajing's cultivation level, he should have broken through to the realm of overcoming the tribulation. Either ascend to the immortal world, or fail to overcome the tribulation and die."
"Even I didn't expect that he seemed to be coveting wealth and prosperity in the world. He suppressed his cultivation under the pretext of national promotion. He stayed in a high position for a long time and did not hesitate to block the promotion path of the people after death."
Prince Wanli narrowed his eyes slightly and said softly: "Ai Qing serves Emperor Jiajing as a national advisor of the Ming Dynasty. Is this really true?"
Emperor Jiajing, the first person in the world.
With his astonishing power, it is only reasonable for him to achieve a feat that has not been done in thousands of years for a whole country to rise to the top.
At least, Emperor Jiajing boasted about Haikou, and hundreds of millions of people in the world believed it.
"Absolutely true!"
"Emperor Jiajing plundered the wealth of the Ming Dynasty and purchased diluted immortal roots of spiritual grass. He did not refine elixirs to improve his power, but he frequently issued orders to his ministers to refine elixirs to increase longevity."
"The lifespan of a person, whether a mortal or a cultivator, is limited. This is the way of heaven."
"Emperor Jiajing has such a delusion that he wants to enjoy endless longevity in the human world. This is an act that defies heaven!"
"However, I also got a lot of conveniences from this."
As he spoke, excitement gradually appeared on Zhonggu's face.
"His Majesty!"
"I have three strategies, upper, middle and lower, to help your majesty ascend to the throne as soon as possible!"
Wan Li nodded: "Speak, my dear, I am all ears."
"The best thing to do."
"I took advantage of the convenience of refining elixirs to collect strange poisons from all over the world and refine a [Pan of the Other Side]."
"This elixir is so poisonous that even the Mahayana realm is not immune to it. There is no abnormality after death. At first glance, the deceased just seems to have exhausted his life span and aged to death."
"Emperor Jiajing takes a large number of pills every day. If we manage to make him die by taking one [Pan of the Other Side], His Majesty will easily ascend to the throne according to the principles of the Ming Dynasty."
"Then, Your Majesty can change the dynasty!"
Zhonggu looked at Wanli expectantly, who smiled and looked at him with eyes full of approval.
"Ai Qing was arrested and sent to prison, and the Imperial Preceptor's Office was also raided. This [Pan of the Other Side]..."
"Your Majesty, please look!"
Zhonggu raised his hands and twisted the little finger of his left hand with his right hand.
Just listen to a click!
The whole little finger of my left hand fell off, and it turned out to be a prosthesis? !
"It turns out it's a creation created by an agency. It's so lifelike that even I was fooled." Wanli said with a smile.
"This fake finger was made by the Lu family, a well-known organization family. I spent a lot of money to get it." Zhonggu also said with a smile: "The Lu family's product is enough to make the fake fake."
He crushed the fake fingers and found a pill in his palm.
"oh?"
Wanli looked at the appearance of the elixir, which was round, delicate and golden in color.
"This is the Biangan Dan. It looks the same as the Nine Turns Golden Pill that Emperor Jiajing takes on daily basis?"
Zhonggu nodded.
"The two elixirs have the same appearance, so they can trick Emperor Jiajing into taking the poison."
"Only Emperor Jiajing died, and the Ming Dynasty's national power was not damaged at all. Your Majesty inherited the throne and directly controlled the most powerful country in the world."
"Here, I will give your Majesty some advice first."
Wanli smiled and clapped his hands.
"Okay, this is indeed the best policy, I love you for your thoughtfulness!"
But after he finished boasting, his tone changed.
"I would like to hear the right strategy."
Zhong Gu was stunned for a moment. Although he was confused, he still didn't dare to slack off.
"The middle strategy is to lure Emperor Jiajing into a personal expedition."
"As long as he leaves the Ming Dynasty and cannot use the Emperor's magical power [Pangu Giant Body], together with the world's Mahayana realm masters, we can also have great confidence in killing Emperor Jiajing."
Wanli seemed a little disappointed and said: "Inducing an emperor to leave the country? How easy is it?"
"It's really not easy."
Zhonggu smiled.
"But what if Empress Yaoguang uses her body as bait?"
"Yao Guang is the strongest female cultivator in the world, and she has realized the [Pangu Giant Body]. As long as she is in the territory of Daci, even Emperor Jiajing can do nothing."
"If Emperor Jiajing learns that Empress Yaoguang will leave Daci on a certain day and go to an ancient secret realm to hunt for treasure."
"Inform Emperor Jiajing of the time and place. How could he not go and snipe in person?"
Wanli was really moved when he heard this, but after thinking for a moment, he shook his head again and again.
"Empress Yaoguang?"
"With her status, how can she be willing to use her body as bait?"
"Even if the empress is willing, how can I contact and cooperate with her on such a major matter?"
Zhonggu seemed to have expected this question from him.
"Your Majesty, does he know? The two holy masters of the Daci Dynasty are lurking in the harem of the Ming Dynasty."
Wanli's expression changed when he heard this!
"Using the secret technique of [Fu Luan Qi Ji], I calculated that your Majesty's new favorite concubine is the Holy Master of Daci Dynasty paintings."
"The concubine Rou is accompanying the palace maid Achang, who is the Holy Master of Arrows in the Daci Dynasty."
"Empress Yaoguang sent two holy masters to lurk in the Ming Palace. Their intention..."
"It must be to assassinate Jiajing!" Wanli said solemnly.
In this way, the middle strategy is feasible.
Zhonggu was looking forward to waiting for Wanli to make a choice, but after a while, he heard him say: "Zhonggu loves you, what's your next move?"
Neither the best strategy nor the middle strategy can satisfy Wanli?
Zhong Gu was a little surprised, but still loyally said: "The next step is to kill Xu Jie."
Wanli was slightly stunned.
Kill Xu Jie, the second assistant of the Ming Dynasty?
Although this matter is difficult, it is much easier than directly assassinating Emperor Jiajing.
"What do you mean?" Wanli asked.
Zhonggu replied: "With the death of Xu Jie, the Qing Dynasty officials in the Ming Dynasty will inevitably be defeated by party struggles. At this time, the Ming Dynasty is full of strict party officials. The government is corrupt and the people are in dire straits, and the Ming Dynasty will be in civil strife."
"Waiting for civil unrest everywhere in the Ming Dynasty, wars and wars rising everywhere, Chen defeating Wu Guang will be countless."
"When Emperor Jiajing lost the support of the people, he lost the destiny of the country and was unable to display [Pangu's Giant Body]."
"All of them, he is just the top strong man in the Mahayana realm. Although he is still powerful, he is not invincible."
"Your Majesty, as long as you plan ahead and gather strong soldiers, regardless of casualties, you can eventually kill Emperor Jiajing."
"But the Ming Dynasty was in turmoil, the country's power was declining, and His Majesty was notorious for regicide. Even if he took the throne, he would not be secure."
"Therefore, this plan is really a bad idea."
In the midst of his dying illness, he sat up in shock and struggled to write half a page of the book.
