Xu Zhiqiong wrote a letter asking Hong Zhenji if he wanted to be emperor.
Hong Zhenji burned the letter, ordered the chariot to set off immediately, and left Yuyao Palace at an extremely fast speed.
In Qiancheng Kingdom, there are certain things that cannot be asked, said or thought about.
This kind of thing is related to being an emperor!
In fact, to be precise, there is no concept of emperor in Qiancheng Kingdom, only a divine king, but the meaning is the same. This sentence is taboo in the entire Qiancheng Kingdom.
In Daxuan, a joke can be made among acquaintances: "You have such a bad temper, do you think you are the emperor?"
In Qiancheng, if someone told such a joke and the other side sued the government, as long as there was solid evidence, the person would definitely be dead.
Especially Hong Zhenji, he couldn't bear to hear this kind of thing.
As the emperor's younger brother, this sentence should not appear in any situation related to him.
Back at the palace, Hong Zhenji was still in shock. He drank two cups of tea and thought about countermeasures.
Normally, this kind of matter should be discussed with close friends, but now because this matter involves the emperor, no one can know about it.
Hong Zhenji stayed up all night last night, thinking about it until noon, and fell asleep in the study.
At the You hour, Hong Zhenji turned over and sat up, his body soaked with sweat.
It's also because he slept too deeply. In his dream, he was chopped up with a total of two hundred knives this time.
He ordered someone to get some water, wiped his face, and looked at his haggard appearance in the mirror.
what to do?
If Xu Zhiqiong refuses to agree, looking at this posture, he can only wait for death here.
Hong Zhenji pinched his forehead, his heart throbbing.
Why did Xu Zhiqiong frame me? Why did he frame me?
If I had known he was so vicious, I would never have done anything to him.
Annoyed, Hong Zhenji was in a trance and a little tired.
People who are possessed by fearful breath are particularly likely to feel sleepy.
Half asleep and half awake, Hong Zhenji heard the voice of the Lord God again: "Hong Zhenji, you are so bold. I knew you had a disobedient heart..."
Hong Zhenji woke up and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Why is it always the same dream?
Why do the gods always suspect me of treason?
Why couldn't it be some other sin?
This must have been arranged by Xu Zhiqiong, he also wanted to frame me in my dream.
…
Around Xu Shi, a beggar with white hair and beard came to the door of Yuyao Palace and knocked on the door.
A servant went to open the door and saw a beggar standing at the door. He wanted to go back and pack some food, but the beggar said: "I'm here to see Marquis Yun."
The servant was stunned: "You came to see our Marquis Yun?"
The beggar nodded, we are old acquaintances.
If the beggar said he was here to see Princess Yuyao, the servants would beat him out on the spot.
But when he said he was looking for Yunhou, it was a different matter.
Xu Zhiqiong has a special temperament and often associates with beggars. Brother Xing used to be a beggar, and the servants also know this.
Not to mention, it would be best to leave this matter to Brother Xing.
The servant called Brother Xing, and Brother Xing thought grandpa saw him coming.
Although it was impossible for his grandfather to come to Qiancheng Country across thousands of mountains and rivers, children were still children after all, and he really missed his grandfather.
He ran all the way to the door and saw the old beggar. Unfortunately, this was not his grandfather.
If you take a closer look, you will see that this is not a beggar at all.
This is Shu Wang Hong Zhenji.
Brother Xing lowered his eyes and said, "Are you here?"
Hong Zhenji, dressed as a beggar, nodded.
"Come with me to see the Marquis."
Hong Zhenji followed Brother Xing to the east courtyard.
In the yard, Xu Zhiqiong was drinking tea and watching Yuchi Lan practice his gun.
When the training reached a critical point, Xu Zhiqiong personally came out and wanted to give some point-by-point guidance.
Yuchi Lan immediately jumped far away, covered Tao Zi and said, "Can you tell me if you practiced well?"
"It's good, it's just a little short of the heat. Come on, senior sister, let's practice it again."
Yuchilan waved his hands repeatedly and said: "I won't fuck with you once I have sex with the Tsing Yi envoy..."
Seeing an old beggar coming to the yard, Yuchi Lan blushed and went back to her bedroom.
Xu Zhiqiong smiled slightly, invited the old beggar into the house, and poured him a cup of tea.
"King Shu, you are finally here."
Hong Zhenji nodded and said with an apologetic smile on his face: "I came to see Marquis Yun today because there are some things I want to make clear to Marquis Yun. There were some quarrels between me and Marquis Yun before, but those were all..."
Xu Zhiqiong shook his head and said: "No need to talk about unnecessary triviality, I know your purpose."
After saying that, Xu Zhiqiong waved his hand gently, and the chill that had been rolling over Hong Zhenji's body suddenly disappeared.
It felt like there was a knife stuck in the apex of my heart, and now it was suddenly pulled out by Xu Zhiqiong.
Just the joy, the fun, the relief, Hong Zhenji almost jumped up.
Did he resolve the soul-obsessing technique?
Was it resolved so easily?
Don't you have to wait five days?
Is his method so much better than Cong Ming's?
It seems that I really underestimated him before. Xu Zhiqiong's cultivation level is definitely not at the fifth level.
However, Cong Ming's cultivation may be overestimated. If he has a third-grade cultivation, Xu Zhiqiong'ou must not have a second-grade cultivation?
According to Daxuan, if you have a second-level cultivation level, you will become a Star Lord!
But Xu Zhiqiong let me go so easily?
No matter how you look at it, he doesn't seem to be such a kind-hearted person.
I guess there is still something you want me to do. If I don't agree, I'm afraid I won't be able to walk out of this door.
No matter what happens, agree first and then we can leave safely.
"Marquis Yun is happy to please others. If you have any instructions, just tell me. I will never refuse where I can help you."
"Didn't Brother Xing tell you everything during the day? I asked you if you want to be the emperor."
He dared to say this!
Hong Zhenji waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Marquis Yun, please stop joking and don't trap me in injustice. I am loyal to the Lord God. If I do anything disobedient, I will be punished by heaven and earth..."
Xu Zhiqiong waved his hand, and the coldness surged again.
Hong Jinji was stunned on the spot.
Did he fall into his soul-obsessing spell again?
Xu Zhiqiong doesn't know how to capture souls. He just closed the hanging bag outside the soul.
The breath was trapped in the hanging bag and no longer biting Hong Zhenji's soul. Hong Zhenji naturally felt relieved.
Now that Hong Zhenji refused to become emperor, Xu Zhiqiong opened the hanging bag again, and Hong Zhenji was bitten again.
Whether this is considered a gain and a loss or a loss and a gain, Hong Zhenji himself cannot tell clearly.
The only thing that was clear in his mind was that he had just pulled out a knife from the apex of his heart, and now it was inserted back into the original wound.
"Marquis Yun, why is this?"
Xu Zhiqiong ate a green plum and said: "During the day, Brother Xing told you clearly that if you want to be the emperor, just come to me. If you don't want to be the emperor, forget it. But you don't want to be the emperor and you still come to me. You are
Are you here to amuse me on purpose?"
Hong Zhenji shook his head repeatedly and said: "Marquis Yun, I am really in trouble."
"If you have any difficulties, please tell me!"
"I am truly loyal to the Lord God..."
Xu Zhiqiong shouted: "Brother Xing, see you off!"
Hong Zhenji knelt down with a thud: "Marquis Yun, please have mercy!"
Brother Xing entered the room, pulled Hong Zhenji and said: "Xuanren doesn't want to watch others kowtow. King Shu, come with me!"
Hong Zhenji pushed Brother Xing away and said: "Marquis Yun, I have other reasons, other reasons!"
Xu Zhiqiong thought for a moment and let Brother Xing go out first. Then he lowered his head and asked, "Tell me, what other difficulties do you have?"
Hong Zhenji lowered his voice and said: "The Lord God has spies all over the capital. If anything leaks out, I'm afraid I will be executed tomorrow!"
"It turns out you're afraid!" Xu Zhiqiong said with a smile, "It's not your fault that you're afraid. Tell me, how can I make you the emperor?"
Hong Zhenji shook his head and said: "No matter what I do, I can't be the emperor. I don't have the destiny to be the emperor."
Xu Zhiqiong touched Hong Zhenji's face and smiled: "Don't underestimate yourself, I admire you very much. If this divine king dies now, can you become the emperor?"
Hong Zhenji shook his head and said: "The Divine Lord also has five holy sons, and the Holy Sons should inherit the position of the Divine Lord."
Xu Zhiqiong said: "What if the Holy Son is also dead?"
Hong Zhenji said: "Well, it's hard to say it's me. Among the princes of the same generation, besides Shenjun, there is also an elder brother alive, King Lu Wang Hong Zhenkang. Since he is the elder brother, he should succeed to the throne."
Xu Zhiqiong said: "What if your brother is willing to let you succeed?"
Hong Zhenji shook his head and said: "King Lu will not let me succeed. He is on the same level as me and is looking forward to my death day and night."
Xu Zhiqiong asked in surprise: "Why is this?"
Hong Zhenji said: "Qiancheng ministers, including the royal family, are divided into two factions. One faction is close to Daxuan, and the other is close to Tunu. King Lu is the leader of the pro-Tu faction, and I am the leader of the pro-Xuan faction. Whenever there is an opportunity,
King Lu is like killing me!"
Xu Zhiqiong was startled: "Are you a pro-Xuan faction?"
Hong Zhenji sighed: "But I just said that Mr. Yun has many misunderstandings about me. Only if he sees the actions of the Qintu faction, Mr. Yun will know that I am a loyal person."
Dear readers, Happy New Year! I hope you will take care of me in the new year!
