The true king didn't care if the black shadow was in his hands. After all, at the beginning of the establishment of the Black Shadow, it was a department secretly set up by the royal family in order to collect the words and deeds of the courtiers, and it was not allowed to be put on the table.

Later, because the rebound in the court was too great, the emperor at that time found the real palace to be a puppet on the surface, and promised not to settle accounts with the ministers, so it gradually calmed down.

But today's saint did not take the usual path when he was young, and he once killed all sides, and regarded his own brothers as stepping stones to his position, and he was a powerful character.

Later, in order to deal with the queen mother, he united with the queen's mother family and seized real power. Then, he was afraid that the queen would become the second queen mother, so he supported the Gao Huang concubine and the Gao family who had no background, and balanced it with the Gong family, the queen's mother.

He moves frequently, always trying to concentrate power in his hands. Naturally, he will not be reconciled, and the black shadow who has the news of the whole world will not be in his hands.

Of course, the True King understands that the Emperor has been coveting the Black Shadow for a long time. And he has been cautious and did not dare to expose his true strength, so he barely fooled the emperor. But back then, Song Yi disappeared, and he dispatched the Shenji Battalion to find someone in Kyoto, which also exposed his strength.

At that time, although the emperor did not say anything, he had already begun to be jealous of himself. The True King has always known. Therefore, at that time, not long after the incident, the true king took the initiative to ask Ying to fight against the Jurchens. The purpose is to leave Kyoto temporarily, so that the emperor will not seize more handles.

Now, I am going back to Beijing again to resist the decree, this time, I am afraid that I can't easily avoid it. Therefore, the true king had already planned to return the black shadow to the emperor. It's just that he gave such a big gift to the emperor, and the real king didn't want to make a loss-making deal.

First of all, of course, let the emperor no longer hold him accountable for returning to Beijing without permission. Secondly, he also made the emperor relieved, and he would turn a blind eye to him dealing with the three princes.

With such a result, the true king is already very satisfied. What's more?

Out of the Chonghua Palace, the true king who swaggered out of the palace felt a little happy in his heart. The emperor thought he was an old hunter, but in fact, he was still tricked by what he thought was his prey.

From the first day the True King took over the Black Shadow, he knew that sooner or later, the Black Shadow would return to the Emperor. Therefore, he has been working hard to hollow out the dark shadow.

He had now fully cultivated his own people, even more powerful than the Black Shadow. Sometimes, the message is more accurate and timely than the shadow.

The real king was at the gate of the palace and unexpectedly met the second prince Zhao Hongpu.

The "Second Prince" Zhenwang saluted Zhao Hongpu.

The second prince looked at the true king who appeared openly and had already guessed something.

"It seems that the real king is fine," Zhao Hongpu said with great certainty.

True King Zhu Xi smiled and said, "Xiao Wang, I don't know what His Highness means?" Xiao Wang was summoned to Beijing by the emperor, and after talking about business, he naturally had to leave the palace and go home."

"This prince is very curious about what his father and the true king said. In the Chonghua Palace, he discussed it from everyone, "When the second prince knew that the emperor Xuanzhen entered the palace at the beginning, he was not very surprised. But when he heard that the emperor had summoned the true king in the Chonghua Palace, he was startled.

Who knew that Chonghua Hall was a taboo in the palace. In that year, the emperor built a large number of buildings and rebuilt the Chonghua Palace. Do not let anyone approach the Chonghua Hall. It is said that there is a beautiful woman hidden in the golden house.

This mysterious beauty made the emperor no longer favor other women in the harem, causing others to be jealous. It made the noble concubine, who was very favored at that time, nervous.

The queen and the noble concubine joined forces for the first time, found the queen mother, and asked the queen mother to come forward and regulate the emperor's behavior. But the emperor still went his own way, unmoved, and even listened to the words of the queen mother.

That period lasted for more than two years, but, I don't know what happened, suddenly, one day, the Chonghua Hall caught fire and collapsed most of the palace.

The fire in the Chonghua Hall burned strangely, and after it was extinguished, the emperor's attitude was also very strange. The Chonghua Hall caught fire, and the people inside disappeared inexplicably. Some say that they lost their lives in the sea of fire, some say that they disappeared mysteriously, and some say that no one was in there in the first place, so there are different opinions and all kinds of speculation.

In order to calm the suspicion in the palace, the emperor did not rebuild the Chonghua Hall that was on fire, but locked the palace door with a big lock, and it has not been opened again.

Everyone else thought that the emperor was cold. But the second prince knew that the emperor's move was because he didn't want anyone to mention the matter of Chonghua Hall again.

When he was a child, he had heard his mother concubine Gao Huang Guifei say that although the Chonghua Hall was burned beyond recognition, the main hall was magically preserved. And there is a portrait of a beauty in the main hall, so beautiful that the emperor often takes advantage of the dead of night to secretly run to the palace, and stays in the middle of the night.

These are known to the Emperor Gao and the Imperial Concubine, and I am afraid the Queen also knows, but the two very noble women in the harem invariably chose to remain silent. I didn't pursue the story of the beauty in the Chonghua Palace. Because they knew that the beauties of the Chonghua Hall would only be the beauties hanging on the wall, and there was no threat to them at all.

Why should they be jealous of a portrait? There is never a shortage of women around the emperor, and women are just spices in life for the emperor. There are three thousand beauties in the harem, how many people have approached the emperor's heart, and how many people have no status in the emperor's heart even if they continue to be favored.

They all know this. As long as the emperor doesn't favor one person, they can be safe.

The second prince has always known the story of the Chonghua Palace in the palace, but he was taught by his mother not to mention this matter to anyone, and to pretend not to know the story of the Chonghua Palace.

The second prince did this, and he believed that the prince must be the same as himself. Unexpectedly, one day, the emperor opened the door of the Chonghua Hall and summoned the true king there. How could this not surprise him?

In the emperor's heart, the true king is so important, can he reveal the secrets of his heart for him?

The second prince is at the gate of the palace, just to wait for the real king. Although, as he expected, he could not get anything of value from the mouth of the true king. But this was enough for him to confirm one thing, and the emperor really reopened the Chonghua Palace.

"Second prince, I'm afraid, Xiao Wang can't answer your question. If you want to know, please go and ask Your Majesty for yourself" After saying that, the True King bowed his hand and turned to leave.

The second prince looked at the back of the real king leaving, his eyes were cold, and he also followed in the opposite direction of the true king.

After the real king and the second prince left, a little eunuch who had been secretly hiding at the gate of the palace ran towards the palace.

The little eunuch walked all the way to a palace, he looked up at the "Wenhua Palace", and then walked inward without looking back.

And the little eunuch didn't know it, and when he walked into the Wenhua Palace. A guard also appeared not far behind him.
