Night Dragon Palace.
The emperor leaned back on the chair, closed his eyes, and looked quite tired.
When one has reached this level of cultivation, as long as it is not a life and death battle, one rarely feels physically tired. The reason why he looked like this was probably more because he was tired.
His two favorite women before the Qinghong Banquet had already devastated his heart, and the chaos at the Qinghong Banquet made it even worse. As a result, the death of his son became the last beam that broke the camel's back.
The emperor has been sitting here in silence for a long time.
The emperor's daughter Feng went to Buyu Mountain to ask people from Tianshu Pavilion for help in divination. If the divination had no results, she would definitely come to the imperial city to ask for help. The Yelong Palace guards and the people from the Supervisory Palace have been dispersed, but it is still unknown whether Chu Liang can be found.
It is conceivable that there will be trouble in the future.
"Alas." Thousands of words turned into a sigh.
"Your Majesty, why don't you go back to the palace to rest for a while." Rolex walked out of the shadows on the side. The old eunuch was hunched over, slightly worried, "It's already dawn, and it's time to go to court again."
"No, I'm fine." The emperor shook his head, and then said: "Call Hai'er over."
Rolex retreated after hearing this, and not long after, the second prince arrived.
Such a big thing had just happened. As long as they were not mortals who had to sleep, there should be few in the palace who could sleep.
"Father." The second prince saluted respectfully.
His expression was also far from joyful. Although the Thirteenth Prince died, the biggest competitor for the crown prince position had disappeared. But now his mother's fate is unpredictable and she is imprisoned in the palace, which still makes him quite worried.
Regarding the fact that Empress Wu had been an undercover agent of Yinghuo for many years, the emperor issued a strict order not to spread it to outsiders. This was not only to facilitate the elimination of the remaining party members in the palace, so as not to alert others, but also to maintain the dignity of the royal family.
The reason why Empress Wu was imprisoned that the outside world knew was that she killed the concubine.
Competing for favor in the harem and killing people, this kind of thing has happened in the past and will never happen in the future. However, both the murderer and the murdered person have high status, so this incident is quite shocking. I believe it will not be long before it will be spread throughout the Yu Dynasty. Come, but only as a joke after dinner.
If word spread that the queen was Yinghuo, it might greatly shake the court's prestige.
The emperor stared at him deeply for a long time, and then asked: "What do you think about your mother's affairs?"
"Father!" The second prince suddenly knelt down and cried out in a mournful voice: "It is indeed a serious crime for the queen to kill a noble concubine in the palace. Please spare the queen's life for the sake of the love between husband and wife for so many years!"
"You only know that she killed the palace concubine?" the emperor asked.
"Is there anything else?" The second prince raised his eyes, his eyes full of clear stupidity.
The emperor was sure at a glance that he was indeed unaware of this. He had watched this child grow up since he was a child. Although his personality was a bit softer and his abilities were slightly inferior, the advantage was that he had a pure nature and no scheming.
If Empress Wu told him everything, he would probably not be in such a state of mind again.
"Your mother is a traitor to Yinghuo. All the rebels who were purged in the palace last night were her followers in the palace! Including the concubine and Thirteen, they have all been infiltrated by Yinghuo, and Empress Wu is the source!" The emperor suddenly said road.
"Ah?" The second prince threw himself to the ground, "Father, how is this possible? There must be some misunderstanding, right? Queen Mother..."
"She does have the intention to return, so I will not kill her." The emperor's tone softened slightly, "And I will also make you the prince. Once you reach the seventh level, I will pass the throne to you. .”
"Father..." The second prince murmured, not daring to raise his head.
It seems that the brain received too much information at once and was unable to process it for a while.
"I am telling you this just to let you know..." The emperor continued quietly: "Being a king is not easy. From now on, you must hone yourself."
…
Buyu Mountain, Tianshu Cave.
"Ah Feng, don't worry." Huang Lao waved his hands tremblingly, "Whether it's life or death, there will always be a result. Let's not be anxious for a while."
"I'm not in a hurry." Emperor Daughter Feng said.
"Then can you let go of the hand holding the back of my neck?" Huang Lao said.
"Oh." Emperor Feng let go of her hand.
When she came, she almost hit the Buyu Mountain in the form of a ball of fire. It was still dark at that time, and Tianshu Pavilion thought it was being attacked by an enemy. It wasn't until Emperor Daughter Feng picked up the sleeping Huang Lao from the ruins of the house that the surrounding Tianshu Pavilion disciples quickly dispersed.
It turns out to be the emperor's daughter Feng.
When she said angrily to Mr. Huang, "I'm here to ask you for a favor," the sleepy Mr. Huang was a little confused.
Ah, are you all begging for help like this now?
But considering that this person is the emperor's daughter Feng, it's not surprising.
After hearing her talk about Chu Liang being lost, Mr. Huang also realized the seriousness of the problem. He was the newly promoted champion of the Immortal Sect. If he was killed by Ying Huo in the palace the next day, it would be a blow not only to the court, but also to the prestige of Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Of course, those blows were all false, and the mad Emperor Feng in front of her was real.
Huang Lao hurriedly took Emperor Daughter Feng to Tianshu Cave. Wu Zhi, who was ranked 21st in the Ten Thousand Treasures Record, was among them. Huang Lao's status could actually motivate him.
In fact, Tianshu Pavilion is not willing to use its omniscience to help outsiders, because thousands of people in the world will miss them sometimes. If you open the door, you don't know how much trouble will come to your door, too many secrets will be revealed, and it may also affect the cause and effect of longevity, so just refuse them all.
In this way, those who really have key matters will still come to ask for help, but the number will be much smaller.
Huang Lao took her into the Tianshu Cave. After walking through the deep cave, she saw a white jade-like stone wall, exuding gleaming light. This was not the first time that Emperor Feng saw this thing, so she wasn't too surprised... But the last time she came here was also for Chu Liang.
The so-called heavenly book is actually not a book, but a huge jade jade with innate inspiration, which can reflect the events in the world.
Only when you take care of everything in the world can you claim to be omniscient.
Mr. Huang straightened out his clothes, walked forward, and saluted respectfully: "Huang Wuren, the descendant of the Guantian lineage, would like to ask you to ask the heavenly book for anything, and please give me the true spirit."
Having said that, he clenched his hands and closed his eyes slightly.
call out--
The entire jade suddenly brightened up, emitting a chaotic and dazzling brilliance. Wisps of Qi came from Huang Lao's body and seemed to be connected to the jade.
call.
The situation on the wall changed, and the chaos dissipated in a blink of an eye, turning into two lines of large characters.
"The fish lies at the bottom of the river and follows the wind and transforms into a dragon."
"This is..." Emperor Daughter Feng looked carefully and murmured: "Words?"
"Yes, it's words." Mr. Huang opened his eyes, smiled slightly awkwardly, and said: "The meaning of this guidance should be that the person you are looking for is dormant somewhere, and once the time comes, he will transform into a dragon. Opportunity."
"I asked you whether he is dead or alive and where he is. What did you answer?" Emperor Feng asked.
"The living must be alive. How can a dead person turn into a dragon?" Mr. Huang said with a smile.
"Reincarnation?" Emperor Daughter Feng questioned.
Reopening, right...
Huang Lao cursed in his heart, then shook his head helplessly and said: "In short, Chu Liang's safety is definitely not a problem, and it is still a chance. It's just that the place where he is now is hiding the secret, and he may be in some formation or secret realm. .When he comes back, he will definitely be stronger than before."
The emperor's daughter Feng said: "Is there any time? When will he come back?"
Huang Lao replied slowly: "Of course it's when the wind blows."
