A few dozen miles away from the Imperial City of Chenzhou—
The corpse of a red-dressed woman suddenly appeared, her head twisted strangely, and she couldn't rest her eyes.
"Host, you are dead again."
In the system space, the system told the woman in red the news with a cold electronic synthesis voice.
Being killed by the same person twice in a row, the method of death is exactly the same, which is really ironic.
The soul of the woman had left the body and floated into the system space with a pale face and angrily roaring at the living room.
"Shut up, I know I'm dead, you don't need to tell me the news!"
After roaring, the woman scolded the system, "Could it be my fault this time? I have followed your advice and gave up using the [Nine-Rank Loyalty Talisman] on her, why am I still dying? It's not the one you gave me. There is a problem, there is no immediate delivery! I have already been crushed, why was Liu Xi still caught and her neck was crushed? Isn't this your fault?"
Facing the woman's questioning, the system was silent for a while, and warned the woman in red with a colder tone.
"Host, I hope you can calm down. The system can't go wrong, and the [God Traveling Thousand Miles Talisman] can't go wrong either."
The woman in red sneered and asked back.
"If nothing went wrong, how did I die?"
"[God Traveling Thousand Miles Talisman] is the product of the plane of self-cultivation, and the principle of use involves the realm of spirit and soul. Liu Xi's mental brain is very powerful, comparable to that of a monk. Although she is not a self-cultivator and has no spiritual power in her body, she However, she can use her mind to interfere with the activation of the [God's Traveling Thousand Mile Talisman], causing a delay of one to two seconds in the teleportation array. These two seconds are enough for her to crush the host's neck."
The woman in the red dress was stunned, and asked the system after a while.
"Why didn't you tell me the news earlier?"
If she had known the news earlier, she would not have used the [God Traveling Thousand Mile Talisman] in front of Jiang Pengji foolishly.
The system's tone was still without a trace of emotion.
"Any information about Emperor Chen needs to be purchased, which will cost a lot of popularity points. Although you are my host, as a fair and strict system, I have no obligation to tell you this information. If the host's ability is strong enough, You can discover them completely by your own ability. Therefore, this matter is not the responsibility of the system, the responsibility rests entirely with the host, because you are too weak!"
In the face of the system's well-founded answer, the woman in red couldn't refute at all, she could only swallow the bad breath.
After calming down, she has to face an even crueler reality—
She died again, and if she wants to be resurrected, she still needs to install one billion popularity points to the system.
Facing the increasingly high debt, she felt powerless, but had to endure it.
She gritted her teeth viciously and said, "Hmph, but it's not that I didn't gain anything... Liu She, wait for the father and daughter to kill each other!"
While the woman in red was waiting for her resurrection, Jiang Pengji was humming a little tune in a comfortable mood, and Feng Zhen was very surprised to see it.
"My lord is in a good mood."
Jiang Pengji made a gesture, "Everyone is in good spirits when it comes to happy events, your master will be promoted soon, can you be unhappy?"
Feng Zhen heard this and knew that the fourth prince had been removed, and immediately burst into a smile.
"Congratulations, lord, congratulations, lord." Feng Zhen gave a half-truth congratulations, rubbing secretly, "If the lord is high, can you give your subordinates some sweetness? For example, the seven-day rest last year? For example, wine, food and beauty? Like gold and silver jewelry?"
Jiang Pengji restrained her smile, "There are rewards, but rest, delicacies, fine wines, beauties... none of them."
Fengzhen: "… "
Hey, he did such a big job for the lord, why didn't he even have this little benefit
He showed an expression of no love, and could only resign his fate to clean up his playful mind and continue to devote himself to infinite work.
After being looted by the rebels, the entire imperial city of Chenzhou has become a mess, and deeds such as theft, treason and looting are not uncommon.
Yan Lin and others used the fastest speed to calm down the turmoil in the city, searched and rescued the remaining courtiers and family members, and protected the royal family.
"The former prince concubine and several grandsons have been found, but the first prince's side concubine and several concubines suffered miserably."
The army is in chaos, it is not bad to be able to keep the crown princess and the emperor's grandson, how can you care about the concubine's concubine's room and the concubine
Yan Lin sneered and lowered his eyes.
"Just find someone, what about His Royal Highness the Third Prince and His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince?"
The subordinate replied, "I have already sent someone to look for it, and it is estimated that there will be news soon."
Yan Lin frowned, and there was a vague premonition in his heart.
Although the emperor's grandson was found, several important officials were more concerned about the whereabouts of the third and fourth princes.
Don't say anything else, at least these two are adult princes, and several grandsons are still too young.
After several urgings, they finally found the two bodies at dusk of the second day.
The body of the third prince was swollen in the well water, and a knife was inserted into his heart. This knife was used by the soldiers of King Changshou's subordinates.
The third prince was easy to find, but the fourth prince was more difficult. There was a power of ghosts and gods that prevented them from entering the mansion.
This force appeared strangely and disappeared suddenly. When everyone entered, they found that the fourth prince was lying on the ground, his head was smashed with great force, and his death was very miserable. Feng Zhen glanced at his lord secretly, and shivered a little coldly.
Shouldn't the head of the fourth prince be smashed by the lord's foot
In the days that followed, everyone prepared for the funeral of the emperor and the prince.
"Both of the two princes have encountered accidents, and the remaining grandsons are too young. Who do you think will be the great treasure?"
The emperor died, according to the rules, the whole country should be mourned together.
However, now is a special period, and they don't have to be too particular about it.
Everyone just needs to pay attention to the color of their clothes and tie a white strip around their waists.
Feng Zhen was dressed in solemn gray-black clothes, with white strips tied around his waist, looking a little less bohemian and a little more serious and rigorous.
Yang Si also dressed in the same way, looking at the whole person's aura even more gloomy.
He sneered, "No matter who it is, as long as it's not King Changshou or Wumajing, the governor of Hu County. What do you think?"
"What I see is the same." Feng Zhen said, "King Changshou's wolf ambition, Wuma Jing is also a restless moth, or the emperor's grandson."
Young, well-behaved and sensible.
Not yet the weak crown, not yet married, which means that the young emperor cannot take power.
The eldest grandson is only eleven years old, and the youngest is only two years old.
According to the custom of establishing a direct descendant, no one is more qualified than the eldest grandson of the emperor.
The family is not only the direct grandson, but also the eldest grandson, with an orthodox identity and a pure bloodline.
"I'm just afraid that Wuma Jing will not be reconciled."
Feng Zhen sneered, "So what if you're not reconciled, the allies are old fritters, unless their brains are kicked by a donkey, they won't support him."
What are the benefits of supporting Wumajing
Although there is the merit of following the dragon, but supporting the emperor's grandson also has the merit of following the dragon.
In contrast, supporting the older and scheming Wuma Jin, if one is not careful, it is easy for the opponent to think about the military power and wait to be cut.
What if you support the young emperor's succession
If the grandson wants to secure the throne, he can only choose to reuse the allied princes.
Based on the interests of many princes, Wuma Jing was definitely not a good choice.
The two briefly exchanged opinions and looked at each other tacitly.
