Chapter 839 The Fifth Grade of Taotie, Macrophagic
The divine king wants to make Hong Zhenji his crown prince.
All the courtiers present had the urge to look up at the Divine Lord, but they did not dare.
It is normal for a father to succeed his son in the change of kings.
It is actually normal for an older brother to become a younger brother during the change of kings, but this is not normal in the Qiancheng Kingdom because there is no precedent.
Grand Master Kong Zhongshen couldn't help but said: "Sovereign Lord, the two holy sons are still here. This move may not be in line with the ancient system."
Li Quangen quietly unveiled the talisman, and the Lord God responded: "Very good."
What does very good mean?
Does this mean that the Taishi's advice is good, or does it mean something else?
Master Kong was confused, and Li Quangen also felt embarrassed.
Why did such a sentence pop up?
Didn't the leader say that this puppet can speak several sentences?
After going back and forth, why are there only these two sentences?
Kong Zhongshen could not understand the intention of the divine king, so he quickly added: "Thousands of generations of princes were all selected from among the holy sons..."
"Is this what you should ask?" Shenjun interrupted Kong Zhongshen.
Kong Zhong trembled deeply for a long time. In Qiancheng Kingdom, ministers should not have any doubts about the divine king.
But Kong Zhongshen has been secretly supporting the Third Holy Son to succeed to the throne. Although he himself has become a very popular minister, the future of his children and grandchildren all depends on the Third Holy Son.
Who would have thought that the crown prince would be Prince Shu Hong Zhenji?
It's only because of my old eyesight that I haven't been able to discern the Lord Shen's thoughts over the years.
That's all, I can't speak any more. If I continue to speak, I will not only offend the Lord God, but also the Crown Prince.
Kong Zhongshen said no more, and all the ministers were silent.
Hong Jinji was very nervous.
When he heard that he was going to be appointed as the crown prince, Hong Zhenji was very excited for a moment, but then he regained his composure.
He felt that he was familiar with the emperor's temperament, and he felt that it was impossible for the emperor to pass the throne to him no matter what.
Marquis Yun said that the throne was snatched, not given by others.
This is a temptation, God must be testing himself!
Everyone is looking at Hong Jinji, now it's time for Hong Jinji to express his position.
Thank you directly?
Doesn’t that mean you have determined that you can be the heir apparent?
You can't be so stupid.
Let’s give in first and see what the Lord God’s attitude is.
Three requests and three concessions are the basis of ancient etiquette. If the Lord God allows me three times, then he sincerely makes me his lord.
"God Lord, my brother, how can I be so virtuous and capable..."
"I am the emperor!"
The Lord God suddenly roared, frightening the ministers to tremble, and Hong Zhenji almost came out of his body.
Liang Yuyao was not afraid. Upon hearing this, Liang Yuyao was sure that this divine king was not Hong Juncheng, but a puppet made by Xu Zhiqiong.
Hong Zhenji was frightened and kowtowed quickly: "I am sincerely frightened, but I will obey God's grace!"
Li Quangen put the charm back on and wiped away the cold sweat.
Thank you for saying this in time.
What time has it been? King Shu is still thinking of making three requests and three concessions, so he should settle the matter quickly.
The Lord Shen made the promise, and King Shu agreed, so the matter of the Crown Prince was settled.
The Divine Lord raised his hand again, and Qin Yan quickly read out the second imperial edict: "The civil uprising was caused by the collection of taxes. We now order all states and counties to postpone the collection of autumn taxes to alleviate the resentment of the people."
The Minister of Hubu and the Minister of War let out a sigh of relief one after another.
This is the truth. The Lord Shen found the crux of the civil uprising.
With this imperial edict, the civil unrest will be subdued and it will be just around the corner.
The Lord Shen rarely spoke and seemed a little sleepy. After issuing these two imperial edicts, the ministers thought that tonight's court meeting was over.
Not yet, the Divine Lord raised his hand again, and Qin Yan read out the third imperial edict: "Qiancheng and Xuanguo have the same language and similar customs, so they should build an alliance together. The matter of forming an alliance between the two countries will be left to the prince."
This officially puts the alliance between Daxuan and Qiancheng on the agenda.
The ministers who were pro-Xuan were happy, while the ministers who were pro-Tu were worried.
Grand Master Kong Zhongshen was an important figure in the pro-Tu faction, and could even be said to be another leader after Hong Zhenkang.
He now realizes he was on the wrong team.
I am really old, and I cannot see clearly some things.
Shenjun treated Xuanguo's envoys favorably and was not angry despite repeated provocations during this period, which shows that Shenjun had long been inclined to form an alliance with Xuanguo.
It was Hong Zhenji who was responsible for welcoming the envoys of the Xuan Kingdom. At that time, the emperor may have had the idea of passing the throne to King Shu.
It's all my fault for being stupid and not seeing the situation clearly.
After King Shu succeeds to the throne, will he easily let go of his pro-Tu faction ministers?
Is it still too late for me to join the team again?
The Divine Lord raised his hand again and asked Qin Yan to read out the fourth imperial edict.
"In the city of God's presence, there are evil spirits causing chaos. From today on, all the officials in the court will stay in the hall of the God King. They are not allowed to go out without permission. The imperial army is strictly guarding the surrounding area."
What to do?
Are all the ministers staying overnight in the palace?
This kind of thing is unheard of!
Before the ministers could express their meaning, the divine monarch raised his hand again, and Qin Yan shouted: "Disband the dynasty!"
The meeting is over.
Li Quangen supported Shenjun and left the Enwei Hall.
Qin Yan followed closely behind, thinking to herself: Shenjun is easy to do, as long as he can speak three sentences.
These four imperial edicts were prepared in advance by Qin Yan and Li Quangen according to Xu Zhiqiong's instructions.
With the promulgation of these four imperial edicts, most of the affairs in the palace are over.
The god king left, and all the ministers got up one after another, not knowing where to live.
The imperial palace of Qiancheng Kingdom is called the Palace of the Divine Lord. In the front hall of the Palace of the Divine Lord, there are thousands of empty houses. It is not difficult to accommodate these ministers.
Liang Yuyao looked around and asked, "Do I want to live here too?"
A chamberlain came forward and said: "Your Highness, please come this way. The servants have already cleaned the bedroom for you."
When all the ministers heard this, they felt a little at ease.
Everyone has a bedroom, so it's not bad to live in the palace.
But after Liang Yuyao left, there was no chamberlain to arrange bedrooms for other ministers.
After waiting for a long time, they saw Yue Liusheng leading a group of servants and carrying bedding into the Enwei Hall.
"Come, gentlemen, each of you will receive a set of bedding."
What does this mean?
Flooring?
Master Kong looked surprised and said, "But we have to sleep here?"
Yue Liusheng frowned and said: "Master Taishi, what's wrong with sleeping here? This is the Hall of Enwei! This is the great kindness of the Lord God, how can you still choose it?"
Master Kong was speechless for a while.
This waiter talks so arrogantly!
All the ministers looked at each other angrily, but Yue Liusheng just pretended not to notice.
Being able to sleep in the Enwei Hall is indeed a gift.
After leaving the palace, you guys don't know if you can survive until tomorrow.
Hurry up to tomorrow and you will have a good day soon.
But whether they can survive the night depends on the methods of the master and the marquis.
Yue Liusheng tapped the painting on his chest.
…
Hong Juncheng climbed over Yangye Mountain and went to Qixiang Ridge. After searching among the barren mountains for more than two hours, he finally saw Hong Huayun and a group of servants in a mountain stream.
This mountain stream is a dead end, with cliffs on three sides and only one exit.
Hong Juncheng walked into the mountain stream, and his domineering aura filled the air. Hong Huayun and the servants kept their heads lowered, and their neck bones were almost broken.
One of the chamberlains knew some yin and yang magic, and driven by instinct, he took out the mercury and medicine powder he carried with him, trying to set up a magic circle.
But as soon as the magic circle was formed, some of the Yin and Yang Qi summoned were instantly dispersed by the domineering Qi.
This valley has been filled with domineering energy, and a cultivator at his level is no longer able to cast any spells.
The valley is very long, about ten miles.
Everyone knew that Hong Juncheng was slowly approaching, but everyone was helpless.
Hong Juncheng was walking in the mountain stream. He was trying his best to control his anger. He was reminding himself of one thing repeatedly.
He wants to kill all the servants but wants to keep Hong Huayun alive.
No matter how angry he was, Hong Huayun had to live.
There was a sound of gurgling water ahead. Is there a source of water in this valley?
A pungent smell of sulfur drifted in. This was no ordinary water source.
There are bamboos and dragons crisscrossing all around, as if someone has led the hot springs down from the mountain.
A young man in front, wearing a coarse cloth jacket and a soft scarf wrapped around his head, came forward to greet me with a smile: "My lord, how many of you are there?"
Is this a hot spring?
Hong Juncheng's cheeks twitched, and some memories that touched his soul flooded into his mind.
Seeing that Hong Juncheng didn't speak, the waiter smiled and asked: "Sir, do you want to bathe in the spring or stay in a hotel? Our water is slippery, the rocks are slippery, and people are slippery. Why don't you take a dip in the hot spring for a while first, and I'll give you this room."
Prepare some food and wine, and call the two girls over."
Huazhou, this is Huazhou...
Hong Juncheng's cheeks trembled again and he suddenly waved his sleeves.
Under the fierce domineering force, the figure of the man disappeared.
Such a powerful illusion, even I can't see the flaw in it.
Not only is it done meticulously, but the illusion still touches my pain points.
Whose method is this?
It seems to be a joke!
This little guy dares to attack me at this time?
Hong Juncheng's anger ignited again, but the warmth rising from his feet gradually extinguished his anger.
Hong Juncheng leaned over and saw that his legs were sinking into the water.
The water was very clear, with layers of heat rippling across the surface.
Or a hot spring?
Have I soaked in the spring water?
Hong Juncheng touched the spring water, and the smooth touch made his body tremble violently.
This is the hot spring in Huazhou...
Hong Juncheng's spirit was a little unstable.
He suddenly released his domineering energy and tried to dispel the illusion again.
He failed, and the waves were still around him.
Moreover, his body sank deeper and deeper into the spring, and his whole body was completely enveloped by the warm spring water.
The domineering spirit cannot dispel this illusion!
Hong Juncheng changed his method. He closed his eyes and let the aura of awe-inspiring flow around him, causing the illusion around him to shake.
The Confucian technique of innocence! One of the best tools to dispel illusions.
After more than ten puffs, Hong Juncheng opened his eyes. The surrounding water still had not disappeared, and he was still soaking in it.
A woman took off her clothes, carried a bamboo basket, came to the spring, and walked to Hong Juncheng's side.
She took out a pot of wine from the bamboo basket, warmed the wine with the temperature of the spring water, poured a glass, and handed it to Hong Juncheng's mouth.
Hong Juncheng was in a daze. He picked up the wine glass and was about to take a sip.
He suddenly opened his mouth wide and swallowed the wine glass.
Not just the wine glass, but also the woman in front of him. He grabbed the woman in front of him and stuffed it into his mouth bit by bit, just like when he devoured Gongsun Wen.
Next is a pool of hot springs!
Hong Juncheng leaned down, put his mouth into the pool, swallowed, and drank up all the water in the spring.
Finally came the fog, and Hong Juncheng swallowed up all the fog around the spring.
Taotie fifth level skill, giant bite!
Visible energy can be swallowed, and invisible force can also be swallowed.
Real skills can be swallowed, and illusory skills can also be swallowed.
With this giant devouring move, Hong Juncheng swallowed all the illusion in front of him and the power that made up the illusion.
He chewed it carefully in his mouth for a long time, savoring the taste, and his eyebrows couldn't help but raise: "The illusion formed by the power of imagery, no wonder it is difficult to resolve with Confucianism, Xu Zhiqiong, you are not dead yet?
?”
Xu Zhiqiong's laughter came from the mountain stream: "Shenjun, how can I bear to let you go?"
Hong Juncheng suddenly opened his air and roared: "Since you can't let go, I will give you one more ride!"
