The old eunuch looked at Queen Wang and couldn't help but said: "Queen, does it make sense to win over Concubine Chen like this? She has obviously broken off the relationship with Chen Hou..."
Queen Wang said disapprovingly: "How can the blood relationship be broken so easily?"
"Twelve princes are connected by the same spirit. Chen Yinglong is called the number one marquis, but his influence in the army has even exceeded that of the three princes! The reason for severing ties at this time is just to avoid suspicion!"
"I see."
The old eunuch suddenly realized something.
Think about it, if the relationship between the two is severed and there is no backing support, how can a mere Concubine Chen support the operation of the entire Evergreen Palace! .??.??
Whether it was money, property, or internal affairs of the palace, it was not something that a concubine like her could handle in person.
the other side.
Yang Fan and Concubine Chen came out of Kunning Palace and did not leave. Instead, they waited outside for a while and saw Zhu Yuexian being led in.
"It seems that our queen not only summoned us, but also summoned many others."
Concubine Chen's eyes flashed, and Queen Wang's words just now were replayed in her mind repeatedly, and she always felt that the other party's purpose was not that simple.
Is this to win over Chen Yinglong and Ying Tiandao through himself?
Are you trying to promote the crown prince to the throne?
Your Majesty is still in the prime of life, but Queen Wang is actually thinking about His Majesty's Longevity-Defending Heavenly Pill, and it is inevitable that Concubine Chen will not think too much about it.
"Let's go back."
Concubine Chen turned around, Yang Fan held her arm, looked at the brocade box in her hand, and said, "Do we really want to send a message to your father, Chen Yinglong?"
"What kind of news is being passed on?"
Concubine Chen glanced at him and said, "The things our Queen took out personally must not be ordinary treasures. Go back and take them apart and have a look. If you can use them, then we will keep them."
"……good."
Yang Fan is actually quite curious What's inside.
Soon, the two returned to the palace.
"Are you back?"
Concubine Xiao Shu had not left Changqing Palace. When she saw the two men coming back, she immediately greeted them.
"Sister Shu Fei, today is the first day of the new year, why did you wake up so early?"
Concubine Chen handed the brocade box to Yang Fan, then took Concubine Xiao Shu's arm, and the two walked forward while talking.
Concubine Xiao Shu rolled her eyes and said, "What's more, on the first day of the first lunar month, I won't see you in the morning. I'm still worried!"
"We just went to pay our respects to the Queen."
Concubine Chen smiled and said, "Sister Concubine Shu, have you done your morning lessons this morning?"
"Well, not yet..."
"Then do it quickly."
Concubine Chen immediately urged.
"okay."
Concubine Xiao Shu had a look of helplessness on her face. After being urged by Concubine Chen, she still wanted to be lazy. Now she had no choice but to practice.
When she saw Yang Fan and Concubine Chen entering the quiet room, she pursed her lips in grievance.
In a quiet room.
Concubine Chen carefully took the brocade box and began to look at it.
The exquisite agarwood has a faint fragrance on it, and it doesn't seem to be covered up, as if it is just an ordinary box.
"Click."
Concubine Chen slowly turned on the switch of the brocade box.
The brocade box slowly opened, slowly revealing the contents inside.
It was clearly a piece of gold paper, with dense pictures and text on it. However, the gold paper seemed to be torn in half by external forces, and only a part of it was left.
On the top are the four words "Five declines of heaven and man"!
The exquisite and elegant small seal characters look as exquisite as Taoist texts.
However, there is an evil smell in the drawings below, which depict the corruption of Qi and blood, the decay of the flesh, and the breakdown of the bones.
"The Qi and blood are weak, the physical body is weak, and the bones are weak?"
After Yang Fan saw this picture, his heart trembled instinctively.
After all, Concubine Chen was well-informed, and she immediately exclaimed: "It turned out to be a picture of the five declines of heaven and man! This queen is really a great artist!" .??.
Yang Fan couldn't help but ask: "What is this picture for?"
Concubine Chen's face changed, and she did not answer immediately, but asked: "Xiao Fanzi, you should know what a heavenly being is, right?"
Yang Fan nodded without hesitation: "After becoming a great master in martial arts, you begin to practice blood, flesh, bones, tendons, and skin. If you choose one of them, you can step into the heavenly gate! And these five refinements are the five major levels of martial arts heavenly gate! Break it!
Those who pass one level are heroes, those who break three levels are true kings, and those who complete the five levels are martial arts heavenly beings!"
"Yes, however, although the gods are powerful, the calamity is the most severe! Once you reach this point, you will face the five declines of the gods! They are the decline of qi and blood, the decline of the physical body, the decline of the bones, the decline of the tendons, and the decline of the skin!"
There was a heavy meaning in Concubine Chen's voice.
"If you cannot overcome any link, you will not be able to truly achieve perfection. On the contrary, your strength will be completely knocked back to its original shape, you will suffer from the five degenerations, and you will die in despair!"
"For a martial artist, there is nothing more terrifying than watching oneself die in the Five Decays!"
After listening to Concubine Chen's explanation, Yang Fan realized the danger.
The road to martial arts is indeed difficult and dangerous. When you gain strength, how can you really not pay any price?
Just thinking about this terrible degeneration of heaven and man makes people feel terrified.
Concubine Chen The empress finally said: "This picture of the five declines of heaven and man is said to be a valuable treasure left by the predecessors. It records the various disasters faced by the five declines and the methods to rescue them! I didn't expect that it would appear in the hands of the queen, and even
I also plan to give it to my father Chen Yinglong..."
Yang Fan's eyes narrowed: "Did Chen Yinglong really break through to heaven?"
Concubine Chen shook her head and expressed that she was unclear: "It seems that it should be here. Even if it is not yet, it should be almost the same. Otherwise, how could the Queen send this picture?"
Yang Fan picked up this picture of the five declines of heaven and man. The material of the gold paper seemed to be extremely special. He looked at the edges of the gold paper and saw the jagged tear marks, and always had an inexplicable strange feeling.
"This seems to be..."
"That's right, this golden paper is actually a human skin! A human skin of a martial artist! Otherwise, how could it be preserved to this day? Unexpectedly, it was still torn apart."
Concubine Chen seemed to notice his doubts and said directly.
Seeing that there were only three pictures left on it, she couldn't help but have a look of pity on her pretty face.
However, even if there are only three pictures of decay, they are still extremely precious. At least they can allow a martial artist to survive the previous calamities and have enough time to deal with the last two calamities!
"Could it be that Queen Wang tore this off?"
Yang Fan couldn't help but think of the mysterious figure in Queen Wang's body. She must have kept it for Chen Yinglong so generously!
Therefore, he suspected that the remaining two pictures might be in the hands of Queen Wang!
"Yes, it is indeed possible! You can quickly write down this picture and make a rubbing of it. We will send this thing back to the Marquis Mansion immediately!"
Concubine Chen's expression changed, and she said thoughtfully: "No matter what the Queen is planning, there is no way that such valuable treasures will be given away by outsiders. They can only be handled by us! If they really reach a consensus,
Maybe we will have a chance to get the other two pictures!"
