Jiang Nan's mind was suddenly shaken, and he instantly exited the mysterious state.
The strings in his hand broke with a clang.
The sound of the piano stopped suddenly.
The rapid sound of breaking strings made everyone wake up from the mysterious sound of the piano.
Jiang Nan concealed her inner shock and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that it would break just after getting a little stronger."
Yunmeng smiled and said: "Your strength is a little bit bigger, but it's not small."
Murong Qing also chuckled and said: "Yes, I heard that you can hold the flying arrow with one hand."
Obviously, Murong Qing was also very aware of Jiang Nan's previous battle on Loma Street.
"I didn't expect that such a strong hand like yours could play such a soft and beautiful fairy sound. It's really eye-opening to me."
"Princess, you're honored." Jiang Nan said with a smile.
Then he stood up and said, "Since the strings are broken, it means it is no longer suitable to play again today."
He looked at Yunmeng, smiled and said, "Princess, how about we play it again next time?"
Yunmeng has known Jiang Nan for many years and is very familiar with his habits. She can tell that Jiang Nan has lost interest in playing.
Besides, there was a huge lightbulb here today, so even if she wanted to act coquettishly, she couldn't.
Yunmeng nodded, "Brother Jiang Nan, you must keep your word."
Jiang Nan smiled and nodded.
Then he said goodbye to the two stunning women.
Murong Qing smiled and nodded lightly.
Jiang Nan left immediately.
Sitting in the carriage, Jiang Nan was still thinking about the scene he just saw.
He believed that it was definitely not an illusion.
What could that be?
Countless huge piles of bones, as well as runes... it looks a lot like an altar.
Could it be...
Jiang Nan thought of a place.
Ancient dragon vein space!
The Bone Altar...the entrance to the space...he vaguely felt that this matter was not simple.
Of course, this matter has nothing to do with him.
The accidental peek just now had already violated some imperial secrets, and he didn't want to put him in danger because of this accidental peek.
"Meng Zheng, hurry up a little bit."
Jiang Nan said calmly in the carriage.
He instinctively felt that he should leave here quickly at this time.
But the action should not be too obvious.
"Yes, Master."
Meng Zhengdao.
"drive!"
With the riding whip raised in his hand, Bai Longju immediately quickened his pace.
The roads in the imperial city are very wide. If the owner hadn't stopped it from running wildly, it would have already started running.
…
Royal study room.
Zhu Xuan was reading the memorial when suddenly a shadow appeared in the darkness.
"Your Majesty, I just felt like someone was peeking at the altar."
A voice came from the darkness.
Peering into the altar?
Zhu Xuan was shocked.
Put down the memorial in your hand.
He asked seriously: "Are you sure?"
Shadow's voice hesitated, "...I'm not sure, but I have a feeling."
Zhu Xuan was silent for a while and asked: "What level has it reached now?"
The voice said: "It will all be done tonight."
Zhu Xuan's expression softened slightly, he nodded, and said solemnly: "Then let's start tonight!"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The shadow disappears.
Zhu Xuan waved his hand, and the sounds from outside came in, seeming to suddenly open the connection between the Imperial Study Room and the outside world.
He looked out the window quietly.
After a moment, he said: "Here comes someone."
"The slave is here."
The old eunuch quickly walked in and bowed.
"Let Xiaosi come see me."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The old eunuch retreated.
…
Prince Shou's Mansion.
Zhu Tianshou was wearing regular clothes and was chatting with a group of diners in the hall.
Just then, a servant came to report that the old eunuch from the royal study had arrived.
Zhu Tianshou was stunned.
Qin Dahai?
What is he here for?
But the old eunuch Qin Dahai was a popular figure around his father, so he did not dare to neglect and immediately stood up and walked out quickly.
"I don't know if Lord Qin is coming here, but I am not expecting you from afar, so don't be surprised if you hope."
With a smile on his face, the old eunuch bowed and clasped his fists and said: "Young King Shou is very polite. This servant is here to convey the decree to King Shou. Your Majesty summoned him and asked King Shou to set off with me immediately."
"Father summoned?"
Zhu Tianshou was startled.
Under normal circumstances, it was him who went to pay his respects, and he was basically never summoned by the emperor.
But he was suddenly summoned today, which made him suddenly feel uneasy.
"Master Qin, I wonder why my father summoned me?"
Zhu Tianshou asked.
As he spoke, he calmly handed the old eunuch a banknote.
The old eunuch Qin Dahai's eyes moved.
One thousand taels.
Then he took it calmly, put it in his sleeve, and whispered with a smile: "Good thing."
"A good thing?" Zhu Tianshou's eyes lit up, "Master Qin, can you give me more details?"
"this……"
The old eunuch hesitated.
Zhu Tianshou quickly stuffed another one thousand tael silver note.
The old eunuch put it in his sleeve again, his old face turned into chrysanthemums with a smile.
Then he looked around and whispered: "Test."
Two more words.
Is it really just five hundred taels per word?
Two thousand taels of silver to buy you four words?
Why can't you say one more word?
Zhu Tianshou was angry.
But his face didn't show anything.
"Master Qin, can you be more specific?"
While talking, he handed over another thousand taels.
Yes, I will buy you two more words!
This time, the old eunuch said nothing and just pointed at Zhu Tianshou's clothes.
Zhu Tianshou was stunned at first, then his eyes suddenly lit up.
If you want to say what kind of clothes in this world are worthy of being pointed out by the old eunuch who follows the emperor, the name is too obvious.
They turned to look at Qin Dahai, "Master Qin is saying..."
The old eunuch folded his hands and nodded with a smile, "I also ask King Shou to set off as soon as possible, and we can't keep His Majesty waiting for too long."
"Master Qin, wait a moment, I will be here soon."
With that said, Zhu Tianshou trotted all the way to the bedroom and quickly changed into a prince's royal clothes.
Half an hour later, the fourth prince Zhu Tianshou came to the imperial study room.
At this time, he regained his gentle and elegant look, lifted up his clothes in a hurry, knelt down on the ground, "My son pays homage to my father."
Zhu Xuan smiled and said: "Get up."
"Thank you, Father."
Zhu Tianshou felt a little secretly happy in his heart.
Because if it wasn't something important, my father wouldn't need him to kneel down.
But he had just knelt down to salute, and his father did not stop him. This shows that the news given by Qin Dahai is very likely to be true.
Zhu Xuan waved back, and the old eunuch and others left consciously and stayed away from the imperial study.
Zhu Tianshou was even more certain that his father had important matters to entrust to him.
He was both excited and a little nervous.
Zhu Xuan smiled and said: "Don't be nervous, sit down and talk."
"I don't dare."
Zhu Tianshou said quickly.
Zhu Xuan did not force it, and said with a smile: "When I was having dinner at your mother's place yesterday, your mother also mentioned you and said that you have been working very hard recently. Not only are you learning how to govern the country, but you are also learning how to lead troops in war. This is
real?"
Zhu Tianshou's expression changed and he knelt down.
"My son, I study hard. I just want to be able to take care of my father's worries in the future. I have no other ideas."
As he spoke, he buried his head deeply on the floor and raised his butt high.
Zhu Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "I don't blame you. You are dedicated to the best, which is of course a good thing. How can my father blame you? Get up."
Zhu Tianshou: "Thank you very much, Father."
Then he stood up.
Zhu Xuan then asked a few not too complicated questions about governing the country, and Zhu Tianshou answered them calmly.
Zhu Xuan nodded with satisfaction.
"Okay! Your Majesty is really working hard, I'm very relieved."
After receiving Zhu Xuan's praise, Zhu Tianshou was secretly happy in his heart, but his face didn't show anything, and he quickly said sincerely: "It's all because of the good teachings of the father. The words of the father usually teach the children, the children always bear in mind, even for a moment." Don’t dare to forget.”
The expression on Zhu Xuan's face became even more satisfied, and he smiled and said, "It's not like all the hard work of being a father is in vain."
After a pause, he looked at Zhu Tianshou and said gently: "Do you know why I came to see you today?"
"I don't know."
Zhu Tianshou said calmly.
Zhu Xuan seemed to have expected it. He nodded and said: "I shouldn't have called you here originally, but the prince is far away in the border area and cannot be rushed back. Among all the princes, you are the only one who meets the conditions."
Zhu Tianshou was surprised, and then he felt happy.
This matter is actually related to the prince!
What is a prince? That is the crown prince!
In other words, the next thing his father will entrust to him will be what a prince should do.
Doesn't that mean...
No wonder the old eunuch said it was related to clothes.
It turns out that this dress is really a dragon robe!
Thinking of the dragon robe, Zhu Tianshou felt a little hot because he had one in his secret room.
But only in the dead of night did he dare to enter the secret room and wear them secretly to have fun.
But you can't always see people.
Once you see the light, you will die!
Although Zhu Tianshou was pleasantly surprised, he did not dare to ask and kept obediently listening to his father's explanation.
"You should be familiar with the ancient books of sages and know the significance of dragon veins to our Zhu family royal family."
Zhu Xuan said.
Zhu Tianshou cupped his fists and said, "I understand."
Zhu Xuan nodded, "Just understand."
Then he looked solemn and said: "The ancient dragon vein space is about to be opened.
Once it is opened, people with Zhu family blood and good luck will need to enter it to build an altar.
The building of the altar was the order of the Emperor and was in compliance with God's will.
Originally, the prince should have done this. He is the body of a true dragon. When he is connected to the ancient dragon vein, he will bring luck to him in the future and suppress it for eternity.
But now it's too late.
Therefore, my father is going to entrust you to go to the ancient dragon vein space to complete this task.
Are you willing?"
Zhu Tianshou was already in a state of excitement at this moment.
Little did he know that this was a huge opportunity.
Obviously, he has done what a prince should do, and if he can attract the dragon's energy to himself, he will definitely be able to wear a yellow robe in the future!
In other words, when he completes this matter, he will be the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty!
thump!
Zhu Tianshou knelt down, his body trembling a little, and said with a fiery expression: "My son is willing!"
Zhu Xuan looked at him seriously, "It may be dangerous to go to the ancient space."
Danger?
Could there be a danger of rebellion?
Is there any danger of competing with the powerful prince for the throne?
If he doesn't seize such a good opportunity, then he will only be destined to be a useless prince for the rest of his life.
Zhu Tianshou said solemnly: "My son is willing to go through fire and water for my country, the Ming Dynasty, no matter what!"
Zhu Xuan nodded happily, "I am very relieved that my son can have such a broad mind. Get up."
"Thank you, Father!"
Zhu Tianshou kowtowed to Zhu Xuan again and then stood up.
This opportunity was given to him by the emperor, and it should be worth it.
"The task of traveling to the ancient dragon vein space is important. I will place the commander of the Imperial Guard Yu Sicheng under your command and let you dispatch him.
At the same time, you can select some capable people to join them.
After you come out, I will reward the people you brought in based on their merits."
Zhu Tianshou was very happy.
This is equivalent to the emperor asking him to form his own team and forces in advance.
He quickly cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, father!"
Zhu Xuan nodded slightly and continued: "The ancient dragon vein space has unlimited opportunities, but the biggest opportunity is the dragon vein. After you enter, don't sacrifice the basics and seek the last. You need to build an altar as soon as possible and successfully introduce it. The materials used will be given to you by the national master. arrange."
Zhu Tianshou quickly assured, "Father, don't worry, I will do my best to build the altar in the shortest time and successfully connect the dragon's veins."
Zhu Xuan nodded happily and said: "The ancient dragon vein space will be opened tonight, go and prepare."
"Yes, Father! I will take my leave."
Zhu Tianshou quickly resigned.
Zhu Xuan looked at Zhu Tianshou's leaving figure, feeling a little silent.
Naturally, he could see that his fourth son had a strong desire for the throne.
It's a pity that neither his character nor his methods are up to par.
Not to mention that he had begun to do whatever it took to get the throne, and even betrayed the Ming Dynasty for this purpose.
Zhu Xuan felt a little heartbroken.
The child does not teach, the father too.
The fourth son has become what he is now, and as a father, he is more or less responsible.
But this cannot be a reason to forgive him, the fourth son.
"Xiao Si, I have given you the most honorable way to leave.
Now that this has happened, I will posthumously confer you the title of King of Chengtian to show your contribution to the great world of tomorrow."
…
Jiang Nan felt a lot more at ease when she returned to the General's Mansion.
He didn't go anywhere after that, and practiced peacefully in the General's Mansion.
In the afternoon, a piece of news came: The ancient dragon vein space will be opened tonight.
As soon as the news came out, Kyoto was in a state of excitement.
For the opening of the ancient dragon vein space, those martial arts masters have been waiting for a long time.
One after another, figures quickly flew towards the imperial mausoleum.
Jiang Nan also wanted to take a look, but was stopped by Jiang Yuqing.
"The opening of the ancient dragon vein space is a major national event. It will be chaotic by then. If someone who is short-sighted makes a secret move for you, wouldn't you just add to the chaos?"
When Jiang Nan heard this, he felt that it was indeed the case.
His identity is very embarrassing.
If you want to say it's awesome, it's indeed awesome. If the only son of Prince Yong and the only grandson of General Zhenbei dies, it's really not an ordinary trouble.
If you say he's not awesome, then he's really not awesome. He's just a demoted commoner.
To put it bluntly, he is just a commoner who is as humble as grass.
Forget it, grassroots people should behave like grassroots people.
Isn't it just grass... Somehow, he suddenly thought of the "flowers and flowers" that Meng Yunlong and others told him a few days ago.
I don’t know if those guys went to Jiaofangsi Huahuacaocao... With so many things happening during this period, they must be too busy to leave.
Jiang Nan shook his head and then practiced at home with peace of mind.
Night falls.
Underground of the Imperial Tomb.
A huge space.
Thousands of strong men are among them.
Wei Chun led a group of patrol angels, Zhu Tianshou led Yu Sicheng, a group of diners, and many trusted people, and looked at the altar in front of them with burning eyes.
As an old man from the Dongfang Family issued an order, thousands of strong men began to exert their strength at the huge bone altar in front of them at the same time.
The true energy gathered, the altar began to glow, and the runes quickly lit up.
Then, the entire altar glowed brightly.
Boom~~~
The altar turned into white light, and a huge portal was opened.
An ancient breath came to my face.
The ancient dragon vein space is opened!
The old man of the Dongfang family looked at the whole audience and shouted: "Once you have contributed to activating the altar and opening up the ancient dragon vein space, you will have the opportunity to enter.
However, the ancient dragon vein space is full of dangers. After you enter, you only have time for a cup of tea.
You must leave after that, otherwise the royal family will not be responsible for your safety."
As soon as this statement came out, many people in the world secretly scoffed.
The royal family is responsible for security?
The sun came out in the west.
With such high-sounding words, doesn’t the royal family just want to monopolize the treasure of this ancient dragon vein space?
The old man of the Dongfang family immediately looked at the fourth prince Zhu Tianshou, cupped his fists and shouted: "Thank you, Your Highness, come in!"
Zhu Tianshou led Yu Sicheng and others to rush in quickly.
Seeing Zhu Tianshou entering, no one doubted that the Ming Dynasty royal family had a big conspiracy, and all the powerful people in the world rushed in.
Naturally, they also include many secret agents of enemy countries.
Who doesn't know that Zhu Tianshou, the fourth prince of the Ming Dynasty, was deeply loved by Emperor Huiwu.
Letting him enter the ancient dragon vein space this time is probably intended to boost his political capital.
Since he has entered, there will naturally not be much danger in this ancient dragon vein space.
Even if the Ming Dynasty royal family wants to engage in any conspiracy, they are not afraid.
Because someone had already been keeping a close eye on Zhu Tianshou and his entourage.
Once there is movement, almost everyone will know about it.
Soon, everyone went in.
Wei Chun and Dongfang Yan looked at each other with complicated expressions.
The fourth prince took Yu Sicheng in.
It can be said that the emperor personally sent him there.
In fact, Zhu Tianshou did not need to build an altar.
As soon as he took out the materials and placed them on the ground, the blood sacrifice had already begun.
Moreover, it is irreversible.
Wei Chun, Dongfang Yan and the rest of the group stared at the Bone Altar.
As soon as Zhu Tianshou's things appear, there will be a reaction here, and they will officially start the blood sacrifice.
…
The opening of the ancient dragon vein space was an extremely important matter for the Ming Dynasty. Most of the strength of the Kyoto Demon Slayer Division was transferred to the imperial mausoleum.
Relatively speaking, the security here in Kyoto has been weakened.
But there is nothing we can do about it.
Demon Suppression Tower.
Mu Feng is on patrol.
He is a five-star patrolling angel and is in the fifth level of the King Realm.
On weekdays, Jin Tianwei leads Yin Tianwei on patrol.
But today is special, the ancient dragon vein space has been opened, and most of the people in the Demon Slaying Division have been transferred to the imperial mausoleum and other important places.
Due to the lack of people, he, the five-star patrol angel who was in charge of the 13th dungeon of the Demon Slayer Division, had no choice but to patrol in person.
Compared to the dungeon, the Demon Suppression Tower is obviously more important.
In the darkness, the surroundings of the Demon Suppression Tower quietly fluctuated.
Mu Feng noticed something was wrong immediately.
"who!"
He shouted loudly.
The loud voice instantly alerted the rest of the Demon Slayer Division.
Following this loud shout, dozens of figures in black suddenly appeared and flew towards the Demon Suppressing Tower at extremely fast speeds.
Those who can fly are those in the King's Realm.
And judging from the aura, each of them is quite strong.
The lowest ones are all in the third level of the King's Realm.
"court death!"
Mufeng was furious.
At the same time, I was also shocked.
He never expected that the ones attacking the Demon Suppressing Tower would be more than a dozen enemies from the King's Realm!
The timing of the opponent's attack was right. Just when the ancient dragon vein space was opening, most of the personnel were mobilized to the imperial mausoleum, where the protection was weak.
Mufeng's heart was solemn.
It’s true that he is in the fifth level of the King Realm, but he definitely can’t stop it by himself.
That's why he immediately shouted and sounded a warning.
