Lu Chen traveled all over the barren mountains and ridges around Chaodu, but there was no reaction at all.
Not to mention the fine spiritual energy veins, not even the useless spiritual energy veins were found.
Lu Chen returned empty-handed and returned to the capital in a depressed mood.
Passing through the square in the center of the capital, there was a huge crowd. Countless people gathered here to watch the corpses on display.
The body of the eldest prince was exposed to the sun for seven days. No one dared to collect the body for fear of being implicated.
In fact, there was no one to collect the body of the eldest prince. There was no one left for the eldest prince.
Several of the eldest prince's confidants, including Master Zhou, all died in the battle for the throne.
Even the eldest prince's biological mother, the queen, and some die-hard party members were executed by Ming Hao.
The struggle for power in the palace is so cruel. If the eldest prince had been in power, more people would have died.
Suddenly, a familiar cry came into Lu Chen's ears.
Lu Shen thought for a moment, then walked through the crowd and came to the center of the square. He saw the eldest prince's body hanging on a wooden frame, with guards on both sides, and a girl in a phoenix robe kneeling under the body, crying sadly.
That girl was Princess Mingyue, and her eyes were almost swollen from crying.
"The princess has a kind heart. She has been crying for several hours in order to collect the body of the eldest prince."
"Actually, the princess doesn't have to be like this. The eldest prince killed his father and killed his king, causing harm to the country. He died unjustly and his body should be exposed. Why collect the body?"
"This shows that the princess is very kind. She always thinks that the eldest prince is her brother. Even if she was bad in life, she hopes to rest in peace after death."
There was a lot of discussion among the crowd, and Lu Chen roughly understood what was going on.
"Princess, please come back and don't make me wait."
A guard knelt beside the princess and advised with a grimace.
"It's been seven days. Brother Wang's punishment time has passed. Please let go of Brother Wang quickly and let me collect the body for Brother Wang."
Princess Mingyue said with tears.
"We haven't received the order from the fourth prince, so we can only continue to guard the body. We can't let anyone collect the body, otherwise we can't bear the punishment. I hope the princess will forgive me."
The guard said.
"If I take the blame, can you afford it?"
Princess Mingyue said.
"Princess please have mercy!"
The guard licked his head in fear, and the other guards also knelt down, but they licked their heads and knelt down, but they did not release the corpse.
Princess Mingyue had no choice but to cry, and she did not punish the guards.
The majestic princess of the Yongming Dynasty had a prominent status and a very high status. She couldn't snatch the body in public.
"The dead are gone, but the living are like this!"
Lu Chen sighed, then walked out of the crowd and walked over.
Ordinary people may not know Lu Chen, but these guards are from the Forbidden Army and have participated in the battle for the throne, so they naturally recognize Lu Chen.
"I have met the Great Alchemy King."
The guards said respectfully.
"Princess Mingyue is kind-hearted and her eyes are almost going blind from crying. Let her collect the body of the eldest prince."
Lu Chen looked at Princess Mingyue with red eyes and said.
"But……"
The leading guard had a grimace on his face. Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Lu Chen, "You go back and tell Ming Hao that I was the one who put the body there. If he wants to blame him, let him find me."
"Yes Yes Yes."
The guard at the head was obedient, how could he dare to say no?
What is Lu Chen's status? Not to mention that he can't afford to offend him, even Ming Hao can't.
The guards lowered the eldest prince's body from the wooden frame and left.
Princess Mingyue picked up the body of the eldest prince, rose into the air, and ran straight out of the city.
Lu Chen also quickly followed, fearing that something might happen to Princess Mingyue.
After all, flying is prohibited within the capital, and the soldiers guarding the city have spiritual arrows for air defense. If they accidentally injure the princess, they will be in trouble.
Fortunately, the generals guarding the city were not stupid. They discovered from afar that the sky pilots were Princess Mingyue and Lu Chen, and quickly informed them that no arrows were allowed to be fired.
Princess Mingyue flew to a big mountain outside the city and found a quiet place. Then she put down the body of the eldest prince and prepared to dig a hole.
"Princess, let me do this rough work for you."
Lu Chen landed next to Princess Mingyue and said with a heavy heart.
"Brother Wang treated you badly during his lifetime, don't you hate him?"
Princess Mingyue said.
"When a person dies, his hatred disappears, and all grudges are gone with the wind."
Lu Chen took a step forward, squatted down, stretched out a finger, and lightly touched the ground.
boom!
A finger force blasted a deep pit into the ground.
Princess Mingyue buried the eldest prince's body with her own hands.
Lu Chen filled up the pit and piled it into a tomb. He also found a rock, cut it into a stone tablet, inserted it in front of the tomb, and engraved the name and information of the eldest prince on it.
A generation of princes, rest in peace from now on!
"Thank you."
Princess Mingyue Yingying bowed her blessings to Lu Chen.
"Princess, there is no need to be polite. Go back and have a good rest."
Lu Chen helped Princess Mingyue up and looked at her haggard face. Thinking that she had lost her father and brother during this period, he couldn't help but feel pity for her.
Princess Mingyue was indeed overly sad, her pretty face turned pale, she was exhausted both physically and mentally, and was in a trance. She couldn't stand firmly and actually fell into Lu Chen's arms and passed out.
Lu Chen quickly checked Princess Mingyue's pulse and found that Princess Mingyue was very tired and her soul was very unstable. It was probably caused by excessive sadness. It was nothing serious. If she replenished some vitality, she would be back to her original state.
Suddenly, Lu Chen felt something strange in Princess Mingyue's pulse, so he continued to follow Princess Mingyue's pulse.
It’s okay if you don’t check it, but you’ll be surprised if you check it!
The martial arteries connecting the veins turned out to be...
A jade unicorn!
The Qilin Martial Vein is extremely rare, and it is ranked second on the Heavenly Ranking List, five places higher than Wan'er's Martial Vein, and belongs to the top tier of Martial Veins.
No wonder Princess Mingyue can be a beast master. Qilin is an ancient divine beast and the king of beasts in the world!
Once Princess Mingyue grows up, she will be a very awesome existence!
"When you grow up, who else will dare to bully the Yongming Dynasty?"
Lu Chen sighed with emotion, let go of Princess Mingyue's hand, then took out the crystal bottle and fed Princess Mingyue a drop of spirit essence liquid. Soon after, Princess Mingyue's breath improved and she woke up.
However, Princess Mingyue did not leave Lu Chen's arms and hugged him tightly anyway.
"Can you not call me princess?"
Princess Mingyue asked quietly.
"Can."
Lu Chen responded.
"Lu Chen, I'm very tired."
"How long have you been sleeping since?"
"Seven days and seven nights."
"Practice?"
"No, I'm in a daze and thinking wildly. I can't bear the thought that Brother Wang is still killing corpses."
"You should take a good nap, and when you wake up, you should be calm and change."
"I want to sleep now."
"ah?"
"Just sleep in your arms like this."
"ha?"
Lu Chen was a little confused, and when he came back to his senses, he couldn't laugh or cry.
Because Mingyue really fell asleep, she really fell asleep in his arms, she fell asleep standing up, she fell asleep instantly!
It is conceivable that Mingyue is really tired.
Poor child!
Lu Chen hugged the sleeping Mingyue and stood like this, standing to the end!
