In Canglong Hall, Liang Jixiong's eyes were dull and he was sitting silently in the main hall.
The prince made a glass of wine and brought it to Liang Jixiong: "Ancestor, if you have a drink, you will agree to this matter.
I will move here tonight. From today on, I will be the Canglong Guard. Please find a time to take me to swear to the True God Canglong that I will not marry, be granted a title, or serve in an official position. I have memorized all the oaths.
Ancestor, please tell me something, I am really determined to be a Canglong Guard, please help me..."
Liang Jixiong said nothing.
The prince looked at Xu Zhiqiong and said, "Zhiqiong, please help me say something."
Before Xu Zhiqiong could speak, Liang Jixiong stood up suddenly and knocked over the prince's wine glass: "Be the Canglong Guard, you will be the Canglong Guard! Who cares about Daxuan's empire!"
The prince lowered his head and said nothing.
Xu Zhiqiong advised from the side: "Second brother, don't get angry yet, let's think about it carefully..."
"Where have you been!" Liang Jixiong yelled at Xu Zhiqiong, "Taibo sent the head of the Hunjun three days ago, where have you been in the past three days? Such a big thing happened, you
Let me discuss it with someone!"
How did Xu Zhiqiong answer?
I went to the underworld and sent the sins of Liang Daguan's family to the Hall of Hell?
Can this be explained clearly?
Liang Jixiong raised his head and sighed: "I'm just a waste. I'm sorry to my ancestors! What's the use of my old bones living to this day!"
What happened?
Someone competed with the prince for the throne.
Who is this person?
Is it He Fang?
no.
This is Jin Wang Liang Huaiyu.
Apart from Canglong Wei, among the royal family members in the capital, King Jin Liang Huaiyu was the only man to escape the blood sacrifice in Liangfen Garden.
On the day of the Liangfen Garden Blood Sacrifice, among the clan members, he was the only one who was not present.
Why wasn't he there?
Because he found a suitable reason, he said that he was old, seriously ill and couldn't get out of bed.
Emperor Zhaoxing just let him go?
I really let him go, because King Jin Liang Huaiyu was the only member of the clan who did not pose any threat to Emperor Zhaoxing.
Liang Huaiyu was born in the Huai generation and was the uncle of Emperor Zhaoxing. He was eighty-six years old this year. Because of his poor talent, he had no cultivation in his life. At this age, there was basically no possibility of competing for the throne.
Moreover, Liang Huaiyu himself had no interest in the throne. He was only interested in one thing in his life, and that was women.
Liang Huaiyu had hundreds of wives, side wives, and auxiliary wives, but he was physically defective, infertile, and had no offspring. This old prince really did not pose any threat to Emperor Zhaoxing.
But now, he poses a threat to the prince.
Upon learning that Emperor Zhaoxing passed away, Liang Huaiyu sent two suggestions to Canglong Palace:
First, the foolish king deserves to die and a new king should be established as soon as possible.
Liang Jixiong ignored this suggestion. Among the clan members, Liang Jixiong despised Liang Huaiyu the most. It was not his turn to worry about this matter.
Second, the prince is not qualified to succeed to the throne. His cultivation level exceeds the seventh level. He should go to Canglong Palace to serve as Canglong Guard. Among the clan, he is the only one qualified to succeed to the throne.
Liang Jixiong was furious when he heard the news. If the clan members were not dying, Liang Jixiong would have killed Liang Huaiyu on the spot.
In order to eradicate Emperor Zhaoxing, how many people paid what price? How can we allow this bird to come and pick peaches?
But Liang Huaiyu proposed to test his cultivation in public.
Liang Jixiong just thought this old guy was spreading rumors, pointed at Liang Huaiyu's nose and said: "You are confusing the public with your monstrous words and inciting the government. I will cut you off from the king's rank and send you to jail!"
Who would have thought that Liang Huaiyu was not afraid, but the prince was afraid, but he did not dare to test it!
Although Liang Huaiyu had been a prince for decades, he never got involved in the affairs of the court, but there were still several close associates in the court, and he encouraged these ministers to seek explanation from the prince.
The prince had no choice but to secretly tell Liang Jixiong the truth.
When he learned that the prince had been promoted to the sixth rank, Liang Jixiong immediately panicked.
Members of the clan who have reached the seventh level of cultivation must enter the Canglong Palace. This is a rule set by the founding Emperor Taizu. Liang Jixiong cannot break this rule.
There are only two ways left for the prince. One is to publicly test his cultivation and prove his innocence.
The second is to withdraw from the struggle for the throne and serve as the Canglong Guard in Canglong Hall.
The prince had no way to prove his innocence, so he had no choice but to become a Blue Dragon Guard.
Liang Jixiong was unwilling to give up the throne to Liang Huaiyu no matter what.
But he couldn't control this matter. Just this morning, Liang Huaiyu took people to Canglong Hall and made a fuss all day long, forcing Liang Jixiong to give him an explanation.
Liang Jixiong reluctantly agreed, and three days later, he summoned the civil and military ministers to test the prince's cultivation.
This is just a delaying tactic. If the prince really proves his sixth-level cultivation after three days, not only will he have no hope of succeeding to the throne, but he will also be unable to gain a foothold in Daxuan in the future.
In order to preserve the last bit of dignity, the prince decided to join the Canglong Guard tonight.
Xu Zhiqiong heard what happened and thought hard.
Liang Jixiong looked at Xu Zhiqiong with expectation, this was his last hope.
After waiting for a long time, Xu Zhiqiong finally spoke:
"After a whole day of making trouble in Canglong Palace, King Jin's body is quite strong!"
"What do you mean by this!" Liang Jixiong was greatly disappointed.
Xu Zhiqiong was very serious: "This matter must be discussed. On the day of the Liangfen Garden sacrifice, King Jin said he was seriously ill and couldn't get out of bed, so he went to Canglong Hall to cause trouble all day long. Don't you think this is strange?"
Liang Jixiong sneered and said: "No need to ask, this old guy lied before, he doesn't want to go to Liangfen Garden to worship!"
"Why doesn't he want to go to the sacrifice?"
Liang Jixiong said impatiently: "If you go there, you will die. Does he want to die?"
Xu Zhiqiong then asked: "How did he know that he would die if he went there?"
"He..." Liang Jixiong was stunned. He had really ignored this matter.
After returning to the capital, he sent the Canglong Guards to investigate the matter. He learned from the palace servants that the royal family members had first planned to rebel and wanted to support King Rong as emperor. Emperor Zhaoxing got the news and summoned the family members.
Go to Liangfen Garden to worship.
After hearing the cause and effect, Xu Zhiqiong said thoughtfully: "Prince Rong is very popular, and the clan actually worked together to support him as the new king."
Liang Jixiong sighed: "Xianjun does have some prestige, but the clan is so united because they received the oracle."
"What oracle?"
"All the members of the royal family in Beijing had the same dream. They dreamed that the True God Canglong issued an oracle, saying that it would be the rise and fall of the emperor and the establishment of King Rong. They also saw King Rong sitting on the throne, discussing merits and giving rewards."
"Did you have the same dream?" Xu Zhiqiong was deeply doubtful.
Liang Jixiong said: "This thing should be true. According to what the chamberlain said, several princes once talked about this dream together during a banquet. The clansmen formed an alliance, and the faint king also had murderous intentions."
Xu Zhiqiong thought for a long time and asked: "Second brother, have you ever had this dream?"
Liang Jixiong shook his head and said, "I was not in the capital at that time."
Xu Zhiqiong asked again: "The prince has never had this dream?"
The prince shook his head and said, "I'm not in the capital either."
Xu Zhiqiong asked again: "Have the Canglong Guards in Beijing ever had this dream?"
Liang Jixiong shook his head and said: "No one in the Canglong Guard has ever had this dream. They cannot compete for the throne, and the true God will not send an oracle to them."
Xu Zhiqiong was silent for a long time and then suddenly laughed.
Liang Jixiong frowned and said, "Why are you laughing?"
Xu Zhiqiong said: "Liang Yuming summoned the Yu'e Yuanxing and almost disturbed the foundation of Daxuan, but True God Canglong didn't pay attention to it.
Emperor Zhaoxing had been cultivating the Taotie evil way for many years. Even the Taotie body was brought to the mortal world, but the True God Canglong didn't pay any attention to it.
Now, True God Canglong suddenly issued an oracle, reminding the clan members to appoint a new king. He even thought about the candidate for the new king.
Moreover, the scope of the dream is very accurate. Those who are not in the capital cannot receive it, and those who are not participating in the battle for the throne cannot receive it.
Not to mention the True God, even the star officials don’t care about mortal matters, so this time the True God is too careful in entrusting him with dreams!”
Liang Jixiong blinked and realized that there was indeed something fishy about this matter.
After King Huai died, he and Liang Gongping reported to Dun Wanxingjun together. After waiting for a long time, they only waited for a four-word reply: What are you doing to me!
Xingjun doesn't care about worldly affairs, so how could True God Canglong put so much effort into organizing an action to usurp power?
Even if Emperor Zhaoxing's behavior was intolerable to the True God, the True God could kill Emperor Zhaoxing with just a flick of his finger, so why go through so much trouble?
Liang Jixiong murmured to himself: "If this dream does not come from the True God Canglong, then who can it come from?
Why did King Jin not participate in the Liangfen Garden Sacrifice? Whose message did he receive?
How did he know that the prince's cultivation level reached the sixth level?"
After thinking for a long time, Liang Jixiong raised his head and said, "Let's think about this matter later. Zhiqiong, the top priority is to deal with the prince's cultivation."
Xu Zhiqiong said: "Second brother, you have abolished Liang Yuming's cultivation level, and you have also abolished Tunu General Niegu Lai's cultivation level, but you can't lower the prince's cultivation level to one level?"
Liang Jixiong sighed and said: "It's easier to say that your cultivation is completely abolished. If you just want to lower yourself to the first level, I can't control the situation.
During the selection process last year, all the civil and military ministers knew that the prince was a good candidate. If I ruined all the prince's cultivation and aroused the suspicion of the ministers,
What's more, the matter of abolishing the cultivation base will also cause great damage to the prince. I don't dare to do it unless it is absolutely necessary."
Xu Zhiqiong added: "If that's the case, then let's do something about Ruiming Pagoda. We just need to discuss this matter with Taibu."
Liang Jixiong frowned and said, "I don't want Taibu to know about this."
Xu Zhiqiong said: "Tai Bu has known about it for a long time. How could King Jin hide this from Tai Bu? It's better to tell him the truth."
Liang Jixiong hesitated for a moment and said, "It's okay to tell him. It's just that Taibu is usually cautious, but he may not be willing to do such a big thing."
Xu Zhiqiong stood up and said, "I'll go and persuade him."
Liang Jixiong nodded; "That's fine. If you can't persuade him, I'll discuss it with him."
If he really couldn't persuade Taifu, Xu Zhiqiong also had a backup plan.
In addition to Taibu, there is also Zhong Shen. He can fake Liang Xianchun's cultivation, so he naturally has a way to help the prince.
However, the prince may not be able to accept tattooing on the body, so he should first find a solution from Taibu.
Xu Zhiqiong left, and Liang Jixiong stared at his back for a long time.
"It's strange, I always feel like there's something extra about Zhi Qiong."
The prince's eyes filled with blood and turned into a pair of red eyes. He nodded and said, "I also find it strange. It seems that someone has been following Zhi Qiong."
…
After Emperor Zhaoxing died, Taibu secretly moved the Yin and Yang Division back to the capital. Xu Zhiqiong came to the Yin and Yang Division and asked his disciples to spread the news.
The disciple went away for a while and replied: "Taifu invites you."
Xu Zhiqiong arrived at Taibu's room. As usual, Taibu was still sitting under the green lamp with a peaceful expression.
"Kuansheng, your cultivation level has improved!"
There was nothing he could hide from this old man. Xu Zhiqiong did not answer the question and got down to business: "This junior is here for the sake of the crown prince's succession."
Taibu nodded and said: "I already know the matter. The prince's cultivation has reached the sixth level. King Jin uses this as an excuse to fight for the throne."
Xu Zhiqiong said: "The prince must become a wise king. Please ask Taifu for help in this matter."
"This is easy to say. After I deal with the Ruiming Tower, the cultivation level measured is still seventh level."
Taibu agreed happily!
Xu Zhiqiong clasped his fists in thanks and prepared to leave.
You can't talk nonsense at this moment. If you agree to something, you will be recorded in the "Iron Book" by the fortune teller.
"Kangsheng, don't leave in a hurry," Taibu stared at Xu Zhiqiong for a moment, "Not only has the judge's cultivation level increased, but his yin and yang cultivation level has also increased!"
Taibu directly said the word "judge", and Xu Zhiqiong was not too surprised. However, listening to Taibu's meaning, it seemed that the yin and yang cultivation level had reached the seventh level.
This is a good thing, it should be the effect of the elixir.
"Kuansheng, do you know the seventh level of Yin and Yang, what techniques are there?"
The sun has risen from the west, and Taifu is willing to give me guidance?
What does he want to do?
Are you going to recruit me into the Onmyoji Division again?
No matter what the purpose is, take advantage first and then talk about it, and you will not agree to anything else.
"This junior doesn't know the seventh-grade technique, please give me some advice."
Taibu said: "The skills of the seventh level of yin and yang are called the two powers of benefit and harm, which means to weigh the power. It is the art of seeking benefits and avoiding harm. At the seventh level, it is an excellent opportunity to study the art of divination. Kuangsheng
, I am in a good mood today, and I will teach you the method of astrology first."
After saying that, Taibu waved his hand and made the astrological disk appear in front of Xu Zhiqiong.
"Do you know where the twenty-eight constellations are?"
Xu Zhiqiong knew nothing about astrology, and he explained everything about the astrology chart one by one.
After talking about the twenty-eight constellations, the fortune teller touched the star disk and said: "In addition to the stars, there are also outstanding ones among the stars. Look here,
This is the location of the twin stars of life and death, which are the foundation of my Yin-Yang Dao Gate, and its light is only one step away from the main star of the constellation."
Xu Zhiqiong stared at the astrological disk for a long time, but saw nothing.
"Taifu, forgive me for being stupid, but where are the twin stars of life and death?"
"No more!" Taibu looked at Xu Zhiqiong with wide eyes.
"It's gone?" Xu Zhiqiong was surprised, "How could it be gone?"
"It's gone! Hahahahaha!" Taibu laughed loudly, "My gate is about to collapse!"
