There is no airtight wall in the world. The news that Emperor Zhao Bairen decided to abdicate finally spread from the high walls of the imperial city, and spread to every corner of Shenjing at an alarming speed.
The people were excited and whispering among themselves. They had begun to hope that their good days would come sooner after the sage and prince came to power.
The people in power were both happy and worried. The officials of the fourth prince's line were in chaos. After hearing the news, the fourth prince seemed to have been hit extremely hard and had no reaction.
The prince went to the Wenhua Palace as soon as he learned the news, kowtowed in front of Emperor Zhao Bairen and cried bitterly, begging the emperor to take back his life.
The prince's actions were immediately applauded by the scholars and people of Shenjing. Indeed, as Gu Cangping said: Da Qi governs the world with filial piety, and the emperor decides to abdicate. If your prince doesn't say a word, wouldn't the subtext be: you old man? If you don't die, why don't you come down quickly and make me the emperor
Is this something humans do
Regardless of whether it is sincere or acting, the prince must act like this, otherwise it will be unfilial and unfilial. Even if the world doesn't say it, they will still slander him in their hearts. Moreover, how can the emperor not be heartbroken when he sees it
As for what the father and son talked about later, no one knows. After the prince entered the palace, all the eunuchs, maids, and guards were kicked out. I only heard that the two hugged each other and cried in each other's arms. As for what happened to the prince afterwards After leaving the palace, no one knows whether the emperor changed his mind or became more determined.
The fourth prince was now very embarrassed. He announced that he had just fallen into the water and was seriously ill. He wanted to avoid the post of General of the Western Expedition and had to stay in Shenjing. However, the emperor turned around and decided to abdicate "in anger"... Now Zhao Lie could just do it Really on the wax, he found himself in a dilemma.
At this time, he must enter the palace to show his sincerity to the emperor, and urge the emperor to still maintain the spirit of dragon and horse, so that he can "live for another five hundred years", not to play any bloody and vulgar tricks of abdication, and to continue to be the emperor properly.
But he couldn't enter the palace at this time, after all... He pretended to be sick and rushed to the palace... Isn't this too insulting to other people's intelligence? Do you really think the emperor is a fool? The crime of deceiving the emperor should be executed, but should it be treated as a joke
But if he didn't enter the palace, he would have to watch his third brother hold his father's thigh and wildly increase his favorability points. He could only watch helplessly.
Fortunately, the princess Zhang Biyun had an idea and asked the fourth prince to write a letter in blood urging the emperor not to abdicate and sent it to the palace overnight, which somewhat saved the situation.
While the imperial city of Shenjing was in turmoil due to this, Li Chengfeng was following Zhao Feiyue quietly through the most hidden forbidden area of the Shenwu Palace, heading to the Zhenguo Treasure House.
The Zhenguo Treasure House is located deep underground on the easternmost side of the Shenwu Palace. Li Chengfeng doesn't know exactly how deep it is. He only knows that when he came to a palace entrance, he was put on a blindfold and a hood, and his hands and hands were He was already shackled by forbidden laws. If Zhao Feiyue hadn't been by his side, he would have thought that he would be taken into a dark prison and never stand up again.
Li Chengfeng didn't know how long he was taken around and how deep he took the escalator down the tunnel. It wasn't until the blindfold and hood in front of him were taken off that his eyes suddenly lit up and he found himself in a In the huge circular stone chamber, this stone chamber is filled with densely packed pedestals based on the twenty-four hexagrams. Each pedestal is placed with a magic weapon. Each magic weapon is covered under a transparent glass cover. The glass cover and the pedestal are both engraved with dense array patterns.
Li Chengfeng lowered his head and glanced down. There was also a huge magic circle pattern under his feet, with a faint red light burning in each pattern ravine.
There were eight men in black standing around the circle. They all wore hoods and lowered their heads, motionless like stone statues. Li Chengfeng couldn't even feel their breath, but Li Chengfeng could feel it. If you want to mess around here, these eight people will definitely become the most terrifying enemies!
The royal family of Da Qi has stood firm for five hundred years, so it naturally has its hidden strength!
Zhao Feiyue whispered: "There are forbidden magic arrays here. You can look at them one by one, but you can't touch them or put them into practice. You have an hour to choose. I can help you introduce them, but... don't ask me what I recommend you use. What, because everyone knows the direction of their practice best, and no one can point you in the direction, only you can."
Li Chengfeng nodded and walked into the huge circular stone chamber like a maze.
The magic weapons here are divided into twenty-four piles, with ten pedestals placed in each pile, that is, ten magic weapons. Among them, the first thing that caught Li Chengfeng's eye was that there were two cups in front of him, one high and one low, with a cup in the middle. A cup with a gold handle.
This cup is suspended in the glass cover of the pedestal. A steady stream of green water flows from the cup at the top into the cup at the bottom. However, the cup at the bottom is like a bottomless pit and can never be filled. The cup at the top is full. But the Ning Cup seems to be producing jade liquid continuously, flowing continuously.
Zhao Feiyue followed his gaze, stepped forward and introduced in a low voice: "This is the Jade Cup, which can continuously produce jade liquid every day. This jade liquid not only has the function of healing wounds and stopping bleeding, and saving people from life and death, but also It can steadily improve the practitioner's magical power."
Li Chengfeng was shocked and dumbfounded: "Ah? There is such a wonderful magic weapon? This... Isn't this equivalent to a magic weapon: the Qiankun Marrow Cleansing Pool? You don't have to suffer the pain of the knife and axe?"
Zhao Feiyue smiled and said: "It's not that powerful, but it's almost the same. It's just that this magic weapon is only effective on monks below the golden body, and it can't widen the monks' meridians."
Li Chengfeng was very excited almost immediately, and almost impulsively wanted to choose this magic weapon: This is equivalent to an unlimited medical bag!
If there is a chance to take a breath during the fight... That would be so shameless!
It took a lot of effort for Li Chengfeng to pull his eyes out of the cup. He looked at a pedestal next to him and saw a small basin emitting a faint red light placed in the glazed cover of the pedestal. Li Chengfeng Qi said: "What is this?"
Zhao Feiyue said with a strange expression: "This is... a cornucopia."
Li Chengfeng took a breath of air: "What the hell?! A cornucopia? It's just... someone who can make treasures and gold by himself... a cornucopia?"
Zhao Feiyue nodded slowly: "Exactly this!"
Li Chengfeng's eyes almost popped out: "Daqi still has such treasures? Then why not use them to relieve the financial pressure on the treasury?"
Zhao Feiyue shook his head and said: "It's good that this thing is a cornucopia, but... the amount of gold produced by the cornucopia each time is related to the number of sacrifices."
Li Chengfeng was stunned for a moment: "Do you still need a sacrifice? What sacrifice? Could it be..."
Zhao Feiyue looked solemn: "Yes, it is... human life! The more lives are sacrificed, the more gold this cornucopia will produce! When this treasure was acquired by Taizong, he immediately declared these magic treasures to be evil objects in the world. , anyone who uses it should be a traitor to the country, and everyone in the world will punish him! Later, Taizong hid this thing deep and sealed it, and has always hidden it underground."
When Li Chengfeng looked again, he felt that the red light emanating from the cornucopia was clearly the strong scent of blood, full of evil and charm!
Li Chengfeng didn't dare to look any further and turned his attention to the third pedestal next to him. When he saw it, his eyes suddenly lit up!
