"Your Highness, you are very capable. This is the jade seal. Please accept it."
With a flattering look on his face, Wei Zhongxian knelt on the ground and raised the jade seal above his head, looking extremely respectful.
Looking at Wei Zhongxian, who knew current affairs, Zhu Youji sneered: "Oh, Wei Zhongxian, you old dog, are you really sensible?"
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness. Isn't this servant just the old dog of the royal family?"
"It is destiny for His Highness to inherit the throne, and this servant is naturally happy." Wei Zhongxian remained motionless, still flattering, and licked Zhu Youji with all his strength.
"Notify the court meeting, let Cao Zhengchun prepare it, and proceed as planned." Zhu Youji ordered without changing his expression.
"My slave obeys the order." Wei Zhongxian said respectfully.
Zhu Youji stretched out his hand and took the jade seal that represented imperial power. In an instant, Zhu Youji felt that his destiny had been added to his body, his luck had increased, and his whole body was as clear as day, as if he had eaten an ice cream in the summer and felt so good.
"If you receive orders from Heaven, you will live a long and prosperous life!"
Zhu Youji looked at the inscriptions under the jade seal. For a moment, he felt a surge of pride, and his heart was hard to calm down. Thousands of years of history, countless dynasty changes, and countless heroes, couldn't they just get these eight characters?
Today, this jade seal, which symbolizes the best imperial power, belongs to Zhu Youji.
Zhu Youji grabbed the jade seal and strode away from the Supervisor of Ceremonies.
It was not until Zhu Youji left that Wei Zhongxian slowly got up, his expression calm and the flattery on his face gone.
"Come here, let Cao Zhengchun come to see me." Wei Zhongxian raised his hand and sat down again.
A moment later, Cao Zhengchun strode into the lobby with an excited expression.
"Godfather, Godfather, I have discovered a shocking secret. You will never imagine that this secret is enough to take us one step further." Cao Zhengchun was very excited, and his excitement was palpable, as if he could get everything right away.
Seeing this, Wei Zhongxian calmed down and said slowly: "What secret? Make you so excited?"
"Godfather." Cao Zhengchun first sensed his surroundings, then looked around uneasily, and whispered: "Godfather, I found out, I found out, on the day when the fourth prince Zhu Youji was born, all the eunuchs and maids They all died suddenly, but I found the body of the palace maid from the dry well in the cold palace, and I found a piece of evidence on the body of the palace maid."
"Zhu Youji was not born to Concubine Wan Gui, but was secretly brought in from outside the palace."
"This is a civet cat exchanging a prince, this is Li Dai Tao Zang!"
"With this secret, we can control Zhu Youji and Wan Guifei. Now, as long as we control them in the court, we will control the entire court."
"Godfather, godfather..."
Seeing that something was wrong with Wei Zhongxian's expression, Cao Zhengchun shouted a few more times.
"Show me the evidence." Wei Zhongxian stretched out his hand and motioned to Cao Zhengchun to hand him the evidence.
Cao Zhengchun hesitated for a moment, then took out a brocade cloth from his arms, handed it to Wei Zhongxian, and explained: "Godfather, this palace maid's bones were shattered. She probably suffered a fatal martial arts attack, but before she died, she A small thing was swallowed into my stomach, and then I found this evidence based on this small object."
Wei Zhongxian opened the brocade cloth and looked at the content written in ink on it. His eyes flickered and he sighed faintly: "Hey, Zhengchun, you are a step too late! If it could have been done earlier, in Zhu Wuwu, Yan Song Why did we end up like this before we fell?"
"Ah? Godfather, what do you mean?" Cao Zhengchun looked confused and did not understand what Wei Zhongxian meant.
Wei Zhongxian gave a bitter smile, shook his head, and threw the brocade cloth in his hand into the brazier.
"Ah!" Cao Zhengchun was shocked and wanted to step forward and take out the brocade cloth, "Godfather, what are you doing! This is evidence!"
"It's useless." Wei Zhongxian stopped him and said seriously: "Now, this thing is no longer a bargaining chip for further progress, but a dead soul seeking life."
"It is tasteless to eat, and it is a pity to throw it away. If you keep it, it may kill you."
"What's the point of keeping these useless pieces of meat that can kill people?"
Cao Zhengchun's face changed a little and asked: "Godfather, what happened..."
…
Inner city, a courtyard.
"Yu Huatian, have you almost recovered your skills?"
Zhu Youji stood with his hands behind his hands, looked at the feminine man sitting in the room in front of him, and said.
"Your Highness, are you here to execute me?" Yuhuatian slowly opened his eyes and asked.
"Do you still need me to come in person to execute you?"
"Your cultivation has been completely sealed by me. Let alone ninth-level warriors, even seventh-level warriors can easily kill you."
"If I kill you, as you are now, it's not worth my special trip."
Zhu Youji's tone was cold and he continued: "I've given you so many days, have you considered it?"
"Do things with me?"
"Or die?"
Zhu Youji can certainly use the Talisman of Life and Death, which is a soul-transferring technique, to forcibly confuse and control Yu Huatian's mind, and forcibly transform him into one of his own.
However, doing so is meaningless.
For Zhu Youji, what he lacks is subordinates with self-awareness. Only such people can help him do things.
If it is a puppet with little self-awareness, then there is no need.
Just like the test Zhu Youji gave Ding Xiu, a subordinate of flesh and blood is more useful than a subordinate who only knows loyalty.
This is also the reason why Zhu You admires Ding Xiu very much.
"Your Highness, do you still dare to use me?"
"I belong to Concubine Wan Gui." Yuhuatian looked at Zhu Youji and asked.
"I don't trust those who employ me, and I don't use those who doubt me. Of course I dare to use you, and I will reuse you. The things that Xichang is doing now overlap with those of Dongchang Jinyiwei, which is meaningless. If you are willing to surrender to me and work with me, I will Give you something more meaningful to do." Zhu Youji said calmly.
"Your Highness, with your cultivation and ability, can I really help you?"
Ever since he knew that Zhu Youji was the Grandmaster Wuming, Yuhuatian had been in self-doubt. He couldn't figure out how Zhu Youji became a Grandmaster?
Are you really a genius?
No, maybe I am just a mediocre person.
"I can help you be promoted to Grandmaster. This is not a problem, but I need your loyalty." Zhu Youji looked at Yuhuatian and said slowly.
"Grandmaster?"
If others said this, Yu Huatian would definitely sneer at him. Do you think the grandmaster is just a cabbage? He will be promoted as long as he is promoted?
But if this person were replaced by Zhu Youji, it would be completely different.
Who is Zhu Youji?
The master of swordsmanship is unknown.
He is probably the youngest master in the world.
He said there was a way and his credibility was very high.
"I am willing to surrender." Yuhuatian finally agreed.
"Okay." Zhu Youji raised his hand and sucked out all the talismans and incantations sealed on his body.
The next moment, as the talisman's incantation disappeared, Yu Huatian felt that the suppressed true energy began to flow through the meridians throughout his body, and the confinement of his cultivation was lifted.
"Thank you, Your Highness." Yuhuatian quickly bowed his hands and saluted.
"Take my warrant, take it back to your own West Factory, and then go to Jinluan Hall to meet me." Zhu Youji threw the warrant to Yuhuatian and ordered: "Fengli Dao will tell you the specific things. , waiting for you in my Jinluan Palace."
"Yes, Your Highness." Yuhuatian said.
"Um."
Zhu Youji hummed softly, then moved and disappeared without a trace.
After a while, he came to the Golden Palace, looked at the Dragon Throne, which is known as the supreme power of the emperor, and walked up step by step...
