Chapter 94 Plotting to rebel and establish Xuanhuang as the crown prince
Bai Yujing, in a palace with raised eaves and corners.
The silver-haired Granny Nianci was in the same room as the strong Lu Shengdao.
A dull spiritual light emanated from the two of them, illuminating the palace like a glorious temple, leaving little trace of humanity on their god-like, Buddha-like faces.
Lu Shengdao stood in the corner of the hall, leaning against a pillar, and said to the visitors in his room.
"My men just came to report that Ji Yun's second son was dead. Was it you who did anything?"
Granny Nianci held a jade Ruyi in her hand, stood opposite Lu Sheng Road, and said with a kind smile.
"Indra is attacking tonight, and the White Jade Capital is in chaos. It's possible that some prince who yearned for the throne killed the person. Why would Master Lu doubt me?"
Lu Shengtian glanced at the jade Ruyi with his tiger eyes, and saw that the Ruyi's head was in the shape of a cloud, and its tail was in the shape of a Ganoderma lucidum. The middle handle was engraved with nine lifelike dragon patterns, and it was inlaid with green, green, and colored inlays.
The three infinite orbs are an extraordinary treasure at first glance.
The big man laughed, as if he was extremely disdainful of Granny Nianci's current behavior.
"Even the Three Jewels Ruyi has been refined. I think the preparations for Wu Sheng Sect's rebellion ceremony this time should be almost complete."
Lu Shengdao and Grandma Nianci are old friends. They fought side by side in the destruction of the former Dai Viet Dynasty, and they have been ministers of the same court in the current Liang Dynasty for hundreds of years. They know each other best.
In order to advance to the Gui rank in the "Five Classics and Six Parts" of Wu Sheng Cult, in addition to cultivating all six spells to perfection, you also need the help of the power of a rebellion ritual that successfully overthrew a dynasty.
The Three Treasures Jade Ruyi is a surrogate death weapon that prevents the backlash after the spell promotion fails.
More than 400 years ago, the reason why Grandma Nian Ci helped Taizu Taizu of Liang to start a rebellion in Dai Viet and turned the three states of Dai Viet upside down was to create a rebellion ceremony in which the murderous intentions of the three talents of heaven, earth and people were confused and the world was turned upside down.
It is a pity that the promotion ceremony that year failed. Even though Granny Nianci survived under the protection of the three precious jade Ruyi, the backlash of the ceremony still seriously injured her. In addition, Taizu of Daliang soon ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.
, she had to hibernate in the court hall.
Now that he saw this new three-jewel Ruyi, Lu Shengdao immediately realized that Granny Nianci had decided to cause rebellion in the Liang Dynasty.
"It is true that I did not kill the second prince on my orders, but I, the Wu Sheng Cult, are rebels and have always been particular about following the right time, place, and people.
Although the Daliang Dynasty had built mountains and paved roads, built canals and bridges, and reclaimed wasteland over the years, so that the population under its rule far exceeded that of the previous dynasty, and it seemed prosperous, but the local powerful and local officials worked together to exploit the people with the power of magic.
It is the time of heaven to make a country's dragon energy decline day by day;
In recent years, floods, droughts, locust plagues, hailstorms, snowstorms and other natural disasters have occurred one after another in the three states of Daliang. If it were not for the incense gods supported by the imperial court who rush around to eliminate disasters, the annual rations produced in the fields would not be able to sustain consumption. Once the gods harvest
The hand represents the scene of disasters and calamities all over the land, which is a favorable location;
In two consecutive days, both the emperor and the crown prince of a country died unexpectedly, and the other princes were busy fighting for the position of emperor. I was also in charge of the treasured seal of the grand master, so we were harmonious.
With the three talents of heaven, earth and man gathered together, why worry about not succeeding in the great cause of rebellion?"
When she said these words, Grandma Nianci still had a kind smile on her face, just like a kind statue of an inanimate old mother sitting upright in a temple.
"Since Granny Nianci is ready to rebel, why did she visit my residence in the middle of the night?
You're not here to win over me, then you've got the wrong person, I'm not interested in rebellion."
Before Granny Nianci could speak, Lu Shengtian waved his hand and blocked what she wanted to say next.
Granny Nianci had known Lu Shengtian for hundreds of years, and she also knew this man very well. She was not angry when she saw this, but spoke slowly and calmly.
"Master Lu, why bother to refuse in such a hurry? Taizu Taizu of Daliang was able to ask you to help me, which shows that you also have something you care about.
He promised back then that after your death, he would use all his national resources to enthrone you a Green Imperial God. Now I can double my promise to you. After I advance to become the Wusheng Old Mother, I can canonize a half-step Gui-level Blue Imperial God.
Bit.
Your "Four Rakshasa Dharma" has no way forward, and converting to Shintoism is your only option. There are many gods on the left and right, so why not choose a higher god?"
Different from the "Five Classics and Six Parts" practiced by Granny Nianci, the requirements for advancing to the Gui level of "Four Rakshasa Dharma" are to defeat all the Rakshasa in this world, unify the Rakshasa clan, and be crowned in the cave opened by the Rakshasa clan.
For the emperor.
But at present, the Rakshasa clan already has a Rakshasa ghost emperor who rules the world. Before the Rakshasa ghost emperor dies, no Rakshasa ghost will have the chance to become emperor unless he finds another way.
Lu Shengdao knew that he did not have the talent to open up a path. After practicing the "Four Rakshasa Dharma" to the Ren level, he chose the path of Shinto for himself early on.
"The reason why I helped Ji Xie rebel in the first place was just to find a place that could support my luxurious life.
The lifespan of the Rakshasa clan has always been long, and I still have two to three thousand years to live. My desire for the divine position is not too strong, so I will not get involved in such troublesome things as rebellion.
Grandma Nianci, please leave, I will not reveal the news of your rebellion in advance."
Lu Shengdao's refusal made Granny Nianci fall into silence. She tapped her fingers on the Three Treasure Jade Ruyi up and down, and it took a long time before she spoke.
"The Rakshasa Cult fully supports the Wu Sheng Cult's rebellion. After that, how about you becoming the emperor?"
Promotion in "The Five Classics and Six Parts" is only related to rebellion. As for who will establish a new dynasty after successfully overthrowing a dynasty, and who will be the emperor, the practitioners of "The Five Classics and Six Parts" do not care.
What Granny Nianci throws out is a temptation that is extremely fatal to most people.
Lu Shengdao also hesitated and shook his head after being stunned for a moment.
"I can live for two or three thousand years, and I don't want to be a short-lived emperor who can only rule the world for a hundred years."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Hey - everyone has his own ambitions. Since Master Lu doesn't want to wade into this muddy water, how can I force myself on you.
It's getting late, I'll take my leave now."
Seeing that Lu Shengdao had made up his mind, Granny Nianci didn't try to persuade him, but turned into a golden light and dissipated in the room.
After confirming that the visitor had gone far, Lu Shengdao looked in another direction with his tiger eyes. His sight seemed to have penetrated the barriers of the palace and saw something interesting.
"The second prince is dead. Calculating the time, Xie Wanqing should be hooking up with the new Taifu now.
This is how Xie Wanqing pushed Ji Yun to the throne. I remember she also had a daughter. I wonder how she would deal with the rebellion of the Wu Sheng Cult in the month before the new emperor ascended the throne..."
…
When Du Kang opened his eyes, it was already dark.
He half sat up and let the quilt embroidered with gorgeous dragons and phoenixes slip from his body. After lazily stretching, he felt that all the muscles and bones in his body were groaning in relief.
The quilt next to him has become cold, and Xie Wanqing has left long ago, but the fragrance left by her body can still be smelled in the air.
Xie Wanqing used the Heavenly Demon's gas to refine Du Kang's divine body last night. Wherever the billowing Heavenly Demon's gas flowed through, every god in Du Kang's body would emit blissful cheers.
The energy of the devil is like an all-pervasive clear spring water, dissolving and taking away all the incense and evil thoughts hidden in the bodies of these gods.
In the face of Heavenly Demon, the ancestor of the demonic way who is good at controlling people's hearts, the problem of demonic thoughts that has troubled the gods for a long time was easily solved.
"The incense extracted from the Mountain and River Seal has no distracting thoughts, but the incense I absorbed directly in the past is still full of distracting thoughts even after being simply ground by the Wish Power Wheel.
This woman, Xie Wanqing, has helped me solve a hidden danger. If I can experience the bliss of the devil every once in a while in the future, I will have no worries at all in the practice of calligraphy and spirituality."
Thinking of this, Du Kang grinned. Heavenly Demons are a race that is good at creating happiness. The practice of the Heavenly Demons' Qi that lasted for a short period of time last night made him unforgettable for a long time.
At this moment, Du Kang suddenly felt an urge from the demon within the Yin Shen. This was Xie Wanqing urging him to get down to business.
Although under the suppression of Qian Qi, it was difficult for the demon species to affect Du Kang's mind, but his body was refreshed from the inside out. He still grabbed the clothes on the ground and put them on before striding outside the palace.
You need to do a complete show. Since you have chosen to accept the demon seed, you must look like you are being controlled by the demon seed.
When he opened the palace door, he saw several handsome eunuchs standing outside. After seeing Du Kang, they quickly bowed and reported.
"Master Taifu, the Empress Dowager has given instructions before, asking you to get up early and go to the Zichen Palace."
Purple Chen Palace is the place among the many palaces in Bai Yujing where the emperor and his ministers discussed important matters. Since Xie Wanqing wanted Du Kang to go directly here, he obviously planned to put his daughter on the throne directly.
"Lead the way."
Under the guidance of the eunuch, Du Kang began to fly at low altitude at a not too fast speed, shuttling through the dense and tall pavilion jungle of Bai Yujing.
Du Kang was extremely tired after the battle last night, and he had always been wary of the three people traveling with him, so he had not paid attention to the scenery in Baiyujing. It was not until this morning that he noticed the luxury, solemnity and grandeur of Baiyujing's architecture.
The roads in Baiyu Jingzhong are paved with azure, and various patterns symbolizing auspiciousness and wealth are arranged on both sides of the roads with various spiritual flowers and herbs.
In the shadow of rows of tall spiritual trees, the splendid glazed tile roofs of the palaces radiate golden light like golden islands in the green sea.
Along the way, Du Kang could see various buildings of different styles standing on both sides of the road. Occasionally, he could see palace maids and eunuchs walking in and out of them almost silently.
Du Kang did not recognize the styles of most of these buildings. The few he could recognize along the way were only some pavilions with an obvious Bibohai style.
The eunuchs leading the way seemed to be too cautious. When they saw that Du Kang was interested in the scenery along the way, they did not explain a word and just covered their heads and hurried on. It was a waste of Du Kang's good mood.
Fortunately, although Bai Yujing is large, the palace where Du Kang lived last night was not far from the Zichen Palace. Within half a stick of incense, he came to a palace that was obviously much taller than the surrounding buildings.
When the eunuchs reached the steps in front of Zichen Palace, they stopped on their own initiative. Only Du Kang walked up the steps step by step.
As he climbed higher and higher, the scene in the Zichen Palace appeared in Du Kang's sight as the last step gradually lowered.
This is a very spacious hall, but there are only about thirty people standing on the dark gold bricks in the hall, making the hall look empty.
But when he saw the dazzling spiritual energy on these thirty people and confirmed that they were all high-level monks, Du Kang suddenly felt that the place was a little too crowded.
At the top of the hall is a golden dragon throne. On this throne, which is not even cushioned, Xie Wanqing, dressed in formal attire, is sitting upright.
Du Kang's arrival made all the officials in the palace turn to look at him.
The gazes of more than thirty high-level monks seemed to have turned into a real illusion. At this moment, it seemed that the hall was full of jackals, tigers, leopards and other demon kings, demons, ghosts and other ghost kings staring at him with fierce eyes.
This was an honest and fair test. The pressure created by the combined efforts of more than 30 high-level monks could even make some high-level monks who were not proficient in Shinto become frozen and unable to move.
Even among the more than 30 important ministers present, few could accept such pressure without changing their expressions. Apparently they saw that Du Kang's cultivation was not high, and they wanted to work together to give him, the great master, a showdown.
Facing the scene in the palace that was like a devil's cave, the demon seeds in Du Kang's Yin God vibrated, and thousands of gods in the acupoints all over his body roared in filial piety, helping him withstand the oncoming pressure, and walked into the palace like a spring breeze.
Du Kang strode past the officials on both sides of the main hall, who were looking at him eagerly, and came to Xie Wanqing to pay his respects.
"Your Majesty, Du Kang, has met with the Empress Dowager. I missed the time because I was snoozing, and I was late for the meeting at Zichen Palace today. I would like to ask the Empress Dowager to punish me."
Xie Wanqing stretched out his hand to help, and said to Du Kang with a smile on his face.
"The Taifu and I controlled the dragon energy last night and had a big battle with Indra. It was really hard work. It doesn't hurt for such a meritorious person to sleep a little longer. Let's recover quickly."
"Thank you, the Queen Mother, for your grace."
Standing next to Xie Wanqing's throne was Du Kang's old acquaintance Yu Feng. He bent down and helped Du Kang up, and then pointed to the three chairs beside him.
Du Kang saw that Lu Shengdao and Grandma Nianci were already sitting on two of the three seats, so he walked over and sat down on the empty one.
As the third Duke of the dynasty, Du Kang had a chair to sit on.
When the ministers saw that their previous attack was ineffective against Du Kang, they collectively withdrew their pressure and continued the topic.
The officials were divided into civil and military groups. The leader on the civilian side was the old man Zuo Xiang An Zhongbang, and the leader on the military attache side was a pot-bellied general covered in heavy armor. He reported to Xie Wanqing with his round general belly raised.
"Just now, the Empress Dowager mentioned that the second prince met with misfortune last night and wanted to make Princess Xuanhuang, the late emperor's sister, the crown prince. I think this proposal is inappropriate."
Xie Wanqing directly raised the tone of his voice. He still had the same handsome face, but now he exuded a sinister and majestic air like a demon.
"Proposal? Grand Sima thinks that I was just proposing just now?"
The replacement of the throne is a family matter of the emperor's own family. Does it require the consent of you ministers to decide who should inherit the throne?"
The dispute in the hall continued, but Du Kang noticed the gaze of Lu Shengdao beside him, and also looked at a woman standing on the edge of the hall...
