As a crisp bell rang, the gate of Fentian Palace did not close.
As the palace of the Fentian Dynasty, the gates are usually closed during the Shen period, and no one can enter or exit the palace.
But in these days, the time to close the palace gates is often delayed to Youshi, or even Xushi!
It is said that the prince was very angry about this matter and issued a special edict, requiring that the palace gate must be closed at the time of Shen.
However, the prince who has lost his power is like a tiger without claws. Even this seemingly small request is difficult to meet. The palace gates are not closed until very late as usual. Many people with sensitive status, such as the heads of various noble clans,
The generals with military power came in and out here, treating the palace gate as a city gate...
Many people have already seen from the time when the palace gate was closed that the prince's current status is probably in jeopardy, and it will be a matter of time before he is deposed.
Now the third prince and the seventh prince are already ready to make a move, or in other words, they have already made a move. They are just afraid of each other's strength, so they let the prince sit in that position temporarily. But once the winner is determined between the third prince and the seventh prince,
The fate of the prince can be imagined.
During these days, the third prince's Yuxing Palace and the seventh prince's Huoyuezhai often held banquets and entertained guests from all over the world. In fact, they were trying to gain influence from each other. This was also the reason why the gate of Fentian Palace was closed later and later.
Luo Zheng only briefly inquired about the situation in Burning Heaven Palace, but many of the things in it were unclear like clouds and mountains. The critical moment now is that Luo Zheng wants to see Su Lingyun, who will be the emperor of Burning Heaven Dynasty, and the crown prince will not be able to see clearly.
Not useless, Luo Zheng doesn't care.
Luo Zheng arrived at the gate of the palace, and just as he was about to step in, several forbidden soldiers stopped him.
"Stop, this is the forbidden courtyard of the palace. If you want to enter, you must pass the message. Who are you, please show your name card, and who do you want to find?" a forbidden army instructor asked calmly.
Anyone who dares to enter the palace must represent a force. The ordinary people simply do not have the courage to stand here. Therefore, although Luo Zheng only has the third level of innate strength, the performance of the Forbidden Army coach is considered polite.
Luo Zhenggong cupped his hands and said: "I want to pay a visit to Her Royal Highness Princess Changkong! I don't have a name card, only the disciple card of Qingyun Sect!"
"Luo Zheng?" The Forbidden Army instructor looked at the disciple card. Although Qingyun Sect is a holy land of martial arts, ordinary outer disciples and even inner disciples are not qualified to enter Burning Heaven Palace, but Luo Zheng is different.
.
As the first name in the Qingyun Sect's all-peak competition, Luo Zheng's fame has not only spread within the Qingyun Sect, but now many people in the nobility, large and small, and even civilians know his name.
And this Forbidden Army instructor was the person placed by the Third Prince in the Forbidden Army. The instructor knew very well that the Third Prince was now in a position to employ people.
The Qingyun Sect is the largest force in the Fentian Dynasty. It can even be said that as long as the Qingyun Sect intervenes, Shi Jingtian will say that whoever he wants to be the emperor will be the emperor.
It's just that Qingyun Sect did not participate in this political struggle this time. No matter the sect leader, elders, or real people, they kept secret about this political struggle and were unwilling to intervene.
Therefore, the third prince was unable to gain the power of the Qingyun Sect despite all his efforts, but the good news is that the seventh prince also lacked the support of the Qingyun Sect.
Since the old men of the Qingyun Sect could not be won over, the disciples within the Qingyun Sect were also not spared. After the All-Peak Competition, the third prince had already sent out invitations one by one according to the roster. The invitations to the top 100 people on the Qingyun List were basically all.
Released.
As the number one on the Qingyun List, Luo Zheng is naturally the one to be invited, and is the top priority. After all, there are many nobles among the top 100 on the Qingyun List. For example, Pei Tianyao is from the Pei family in Weishui, and Pei
The family chose to support the seventh prince, and Pei Tianyao naturally had no possibility of winning over him.
But Luo Zheng is a disciple born from the grassroots. There is no noble family behind him, not to mention that he is the first place in the entire peak competition. With such strength and a bright future, he is of course the target of the third prince's attention.
Unfortunately, after the All-Peak Competition, Luo Zheng seemed to have left the Qingyun Sect. The third prince personally sent people to invite him, but no one from Luo Zheng was found.
At this moment, when the Forbidden Army instructor heard the word "Luo Zheng", his heart jumped. If he brought Luo Zheng in front of the third prince, wouldn't it be a great achievement? So the Forbidden Army instructor's face became more attentive and polite.
In his eyes, Luo Zheng seemed to have become a huge "contribution".
"Oh, it turns out to be Master Luo Zheng! This way, please, this way!" the Forbidden Army instructor smiled.
Seeing that the Forbidden Army coach was suddenly so polite, Luo Zheng had an inexplicable look on his face.
But he didn't know that there were not only people from the third prince in the forbidden army, but also people from the seventh prince. If Luo Zheng was discovered by the people from the seventh prince, a fight would be unavoidable. During this time, the two princes were competing for their own rights.
Power, this kind of thing doesn't happen once or twice.
Although Luo Zheng didn't know what kind of medicine the Forbidden Army instructor was selling in the gourd, he was unfamiliar with the people and places in Fentian Palace. It would be good to have someone to lead the way, so under the leadership of the Forbidden Army instructor, he covered the twists and turns of the road in the palace.
go ahead.
After walking for a while, Luo Zheng saw bright lights ahead and a lot of people's voices. In addition, he also heard the sound of gongs and drums, as if someone was singing an opera.
Looking closer, Luo Zheng saw the words "Feather Star Palace" written on a plaque above.
"Is this the residence of Princess Changkong?" Luo Zheng asked with a frown.
The instructor of the Forbidden Army smiled and said: "Master Luo Zheng will know it when he goes in. If you want to see Her Royal Highness, you may have to get the consent of the person inside."
Passing that person inside? Who is that person?
Before Luo Zheng could speak, he heard the Forbidden Army instructor saying to the people in the Yuxing Palace: "Hurry up and pass the news, saying that Qingyun Sect Luo Zheng is visiting!"
After a while, a group of people walked out of the Yuxing Palace. The leader was wearing a purple gold jade crown and a yellow robe with a python pattern. He came hurriedly. This person exuded a great majesty in every move he made, as if he was
A person who is born in a superior position usually gives people the impression that he is looking at him from above, even if he keeps his posture very low.
"It turns out that Brother Luo Zheng is here! I'm sorry to hear you come from afar! Nice to meet you, nice to meet you!" The man laughed loudly.
"Who are you?" Luo Zheng frowned, with a look of displeasure on his face. He came to see Su Lingyun. Who is this guy?
"I am the third prince Su Rui! It just so happened that I held a banquet today, please invite Brother Luo Zheng inside!" Su Rui was very happy at the moment. He invited Luo Zheng several times, but failed to invite the big Buddha.
Unexpectedly, Luo Zheng came to the door himself.
The third prince...
If you are an ordinary person among the people, when you see a person from the royal family, you will definitely kowtow three times and bow nine times, shouting "Long Live Thousand Lives".
But warriors will not stick to this. You must know that warriors only respect the strong. So what if your emperor has thousands of troops? If you are not strong enough, taking your head will be like picking something out of a bag.
Just like the Sixth Prince Su Long participated in the All-Peak Competition, but was eliminated in the middle of the All-Peak Competition, and Su Long was not given any preferential treatment because of his status as a prince.
Su Rui was so attentive, and he must have wanted to win over himself, but Luo Zheng had no intention of participating in the political whirlpool of Burning Heaven Palace, so he immediately said: "Third Prince, I did not come to Burning Heaven Palace to visit you.
I’m here to see Her Royal Highness Princess Changkong.”
After hearing Luo Zheng's words, Su Rui's face condensed slightly.
Several people around Su Rui started shouting.
"Our Third Prince invites you in because he thinks highly of you! No matter who you are here to visit!"
"I have never seen such a crazy person. Our Highness has condescended to come to welcome you, but you are so disrespectful. You really think you are someone..."
Su Rui made a gesture to stop the conversation of the people behind him, but the smile on his face became even brighter, "Her Royal Highness the Princess is resting in her Xiaoming Palace. If you want to see her, I can invite her for you!"
Luo Zheng looked at the people behind Su Rui coldly, most of them were innate creatures, and there were two or three warriors who had just entered the Illuminating God Realm, and then said expressionlessly: "Okay, I'll wait for the princess here.
Your Highness!"
Luo Zheng then followed the third prince into the Yuxing Palace.
