In an attic in the imperial city,
Gu Zhan quietly looked up at the sky. After a long time, he slowly looked back and glanced at the system page:
Player: Gu Zhan
Realm: Immortal King Realm (0/100000)
Title: Pioneer of Martial Arts
Origin value: 16552
………
"Time to pick up the pace!"
Gu Zhandi grunted.
When he had just broken through the Immortal King Realm, he had already attracted the deliberate attention of Heavenly Dao, and that gaze stayed in the human world for a long time. Fortunately, Gu Zhan's breakthroughs were always a matter of course, and he reached the peak of the realm directly in one step. He was able to control his soaring cultivation very well. Only by suppressing the fluctuations in Immortal King Realm cultivation in time did he barely escape the detection of Heavenly Dao.
However, he felt a sense of urgency,
Through the top powers in the world like Soul Search, he has learned a lot of the truth about this world. Although it is difficult to determine whether it is true or false, he can know some of the facts and determine the covetousness of heaven.
More importantly, it is now certain that there is still a Confucian sage hiding in the world who does not know the depth and the purpose of the Confucian sage. If a Confucian sage returns to the world, there is no guarantee that there will be other ancient figures left behind. In the human world, the cultivation of these people is definitely very powerful, and it is difficult to determine whether it will have unpredictable effects.
"There are still many Nascent Soul cultivators in the world, so... let's completely break off the cultivation of immortals!"
Gu Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly and took a step forward, arriving outside a palace in the harem.
"See Your Majesty!"
Several maids on duty in the palace hurriedly knelt down to greet you. A leading maid said: "I didn't know Your Majesty and didn't make preparations in advance. Please forgive me. I will go and report to the Concubine Xian!"
Gu Zhan nodded slightly, and the palace maid immediately stood up and entered the palace.
After a while,
A palace-dressed woman with excellent temperament, stunning appearance and very dignified posture led several palace maids to greet her. With unconcealable joy on her face, she sped over from a distance and said, "Your Majesty, when will you come back?" Yes, why didn’t you inform me in advance to come and greet you?”
This woman is the virtuous concubine Kou Baimen, one of the four noble concubines of the Wu Dynasty. She was originally the leader of the Yunzhou Martial Arts Alliance. Later, when Gu Zhan ascended the throne, he made the concubine into the harem. She was the most powerful in Gu Zhan's harem. .
Gu Zhan did not have a queen, only some concubines.
The most powerful ones are the four noble concubines.
Concubine Hui is Qin Hongyi, the number one female master in the Wu Dynasty. This Qin Hongyi joined Gu Zhan relatively late and is not as deeply entrenched as the Kou Bai clan. Her ability to become one of the four noble concubines is entirely due to her talent and strength in martial arts. Influence in the spiritual world.
Concubine Shu Gu Qingcheng, backed by the Gu family, was the first major force to join Gu Zhan. Moreover, the current head of the family, Furuchuan, was a close friend of Gu Zhan, and was recognized as the person most likely to become the queen.
The least powerful one is Bai Jiuer, the concubine of Virtue.
The fact that Bai Jiu'er could become one of the noble concubines was entirely determined by Gu Zhan's words.
When he was in Yunxi, he joined the Beidou Gang, and when he was still a rookie, he had some stories with Bai Jiuer. However, at that time, he was focused on martial arts. When Bai Jiuer left, he did not keep her, and he did not see her again for many years. Pass.
Until before Gu Zhan ascended the throne, he returned to Linjiang City to pay homage to Yang Yunzhi and reunited with Bai Jiuer. For a while, he was filled with thoughts.
Bai Jiuer originally thought about seeing each other again in the world, laughed it off, and forgot about each other in the world from now on. Gu Zhan curled his lips. He was not interested in any romance, so he took Bai Jiuer back to the palace and made him a concubine. Therefore, Bai Jiuer She is the one with the shallowest foundation among the four noble concubines.
However, at that time, Yunxi Zhengdao, the Mo family and the Beidou Clan headed by Mo Beiyan, including the Gu family from which Gu Zhan was born, were willing to support Bai Jiuer.
So, overall,
The power among the four noble concubines is pretty much the same.
As for the other concubines, most of them entered the harem based on their looks, and only a handful of them entered the harem based on family power.
Kou Baimen held Gu Zhan's arm and pulled Gu Zhan through the door very affectionately, asking softly.
When we walked to the inner courtyard,
Gu Zhan suddenly saw a gray-haired eunuch at the door, and for a moment, his heart was inexplicably moved.
Kou Baimen explained at the side: "This is Eunuch Ji who is responsible for managing the imperial city library. I have been reading some martial arts miscellaneous notes these days, so I asked him to send them to me every day."
Gu Zhan frowned, looked at Eunuch Ji, and asked, "Have I seen you somewhere?"
Eunuch Ji bowed and said with sincere fear: "When Your Majesty went in and out of the library in the past, I was lucky enough to see His Majesty's face from a distance!"
"No," Gu Zhan shook his head and said, "I always feel that you have a sense of familiarity."
"This...I don't know." Eunuch Ji said.
Kou Baimen said at the side: "Your Majesty, maybe you have actually met Eunuch Ji before. When you first arrived in Yunxi during the Qingli period, weren't you serving as a guard of thousands of households in Pingyang Mansion? At that time, Eunuch Ji was serving in Pingyang Mansion. The prefect..."
Gu Zhan raised his eyebrows.
He remembered that he was still an innate warrior at that time. When he went to Pingyang Mansion, he heard that there was a very miserable prefect in Pingyang Mansion, and his family was ruined by the local forces.
However, after he bulldozed Pingyang Mansion, the prefect left alone. However, Gu Zhan never met the prefect.
"Your... name is Ji Hanzheng, right?" Gu Zhan asked.
Eunuch Ji bowed and said, "I am terrified that I am lucky enough to be remembered by His Majesty with such a lowly name."
Gu Zhan looked at Ji Hanzheng and wanted to ask him how he became like this. However, after thinking about it again, this kind of question was tantamount to opening someone else's scars and adding salt to it, so he didn't ask again and just patted him gently. He patted Ji Hanzheng on the shoulder and entered the palace.
Kou Baimen followed him into the palace and said softly: "Your Majesty is wondering why Ji Hanzheng entered the palace and became a eunuch, right?"
Gu Zhan nodded slightly.
Kou Baimen said: "He was out for revenge. In the previous dynasty, Ji Hanzheng had a bright future, but because he offended King Jingan of Qingzhou at that time, he was killed and his family was destroyed.
Later, he left Yunxi, tried his best to enter the palace, and gradually gained the trust of the former Xia Emperor. In the last few years of Qingli, the situation was turbulent, and he found an opportunity to use the power of the royal family to directly King Jingan executed everyone in his family, and he stayed in the palace ever since.
Later, Emperor Xia abdicated and Your Majesty ascended the throne, retaining many people from the original palace. Ji Hanzheng also chose to stay and has been diligently taking care of the library. "
Gu Zhan nodded slightly and said, "So that's it..." After a pause, Gu Zhan asked again, "Is Ji Hanzheng practicing this time?"
"No," Kou Baimen said, "He has neither practiced martial arts nor practiced spirituality. This... Your Majesty, you should be able to tell, right?"
Gu Zhan frowned slightly and said, "I don't see any traces of practice, but I always feel like there's something on him!"
