Chapter 658: Harvest (2)
When Zhang Zhongjun was still thinking about how to get it, he was stunned to find that the merit gold thread in the gold bead began to slowly penetrate into his palm.
Zhang Zhongjun has a more annoying problem with the golden finger, that is, it is very troublesome to check the color and merit on his body, at the beginning, he can also use the mirror to check it, but later, I don't know if it is the improvement of strength or other problems, the mirror can no longer see, it must be the reflection of water.
Every time I check myself, I have to take a basin of water to check carefully, which feels a little weird, but it's nothing, but the important thing is that it is impossible to have water around at all times, for example, now, Zhang Zhongjun has to find a place with water if he wants to know whether the merit on his head has increased or not.
But Zhang Zhongjun didn't care, anyway, as long as he absorbed the merit for himself, he wouldn't keep the meritorious gold beads and hand them over to the government, after all, the reward for Prince Shuying was such things as gold beads and the evil scepter, but there was no merit contained in the reward.
Originally, Zhang Zhongjun didn't care about this, he really wanted to receive the reward, and he definitely handed over the gold beads and the merits inside. But whoever the thirteenth prince of the meow bullied him, of course he wouldn't let the boss get so many benefits.
At first, the golden threads of merit in the golden beads slowly penetrated into Zhang Zhongjun's palm, and then I don't know if it was connected to the merits in Zhang Zhongjun's body or how, the speed of this infiltration became very fast, one after another, and these golden threads of merit swished from the golden beads into Zhang Zhongjun's palm and disappeared.
Looking at the transparent gold beads, Zhang Zhongjun tilted his head, and then after seeing the forty evil scepters he was wrapping, he suddenly grinned, and took the gold beads to touch the black beads on the top of the evil scepters.
As for whether he could absorb the merits in the scepter of the evil cult in such a simple way, Zhang Zhongjun didn't care. However, it is obvious that this kind of action does not require any special skills, and the originally blank gold bead immediately appeared with several traces of merit and gold threads.
Originally, Zhang Zhongjun opened his mouth and laughed, but when he saw that the black of the beads on the top of the scepter began to fade, his brain turned, and he immediately stopped moving, and turned to touch other scepters with gold beads, all of which were exchanged for a scepter after absorbing a few traces of merit.
In this way, the black color of the bead at the top of the scepter was maintained, and the gold thread inside the gold bead was increased. In the end, the forty Evil Scepters had been sucked through, and there were nearly two hundred gold threads in the gold bead, making the bead look crystal clear and attractive.
Zhang Zhongjun pursed his lips, took the gold bead and absorbed it again, absorbing most of it until he had sixty or seventy gold filaments in the gold bead before putting away the gold bead.
At first, Zhang Zhongjun wanted to absorb all the contents of the gold bead and the evil scepter before exchanging it for meritorious service, but when he saw that the gold bead was absorbed, it turned into a glass bead, and if the scepter was absorbed, he was afraid that it would also become a glass bead.
Because Zhang Zhongjun dared to promise that he really wanted to take the glass beads, not to mention whether people would admit it or not, and if he didn't admit it, it would be okay, but if he did, he would be held accountable where the merits in it were! In this way, he would be able to absorb the merits, and then a lot of merits on his body would be explored, and then there would definitely be more trouble than being bullied by the Thirteen Princes!
Because after seeing that the gold beads and the evil scepter would change color, Zhang Zhongjun understood that since Prince Shuying could offer a bounty of gold beads, black beads, and scepters, he must know the status of these things, and if he accidentally exposed them, it would be a super big trouble, even bigger trouble than selling the gold beads himself.
That's why Zhang Zhongjun temporarily suppressed his previous behavior of wanting to act recklessly. lest he be targeted by the thirteen princes, and then he was targeted by Prince Shuying before he was freed!
You must know that being targeted by the Thirteen Princes and being targeted by Prince Shuying are completely different things!
The Great Chen Dynasty didn't know which dynasty to learn, the prince's elite education, the princes also enjoyed elite education, and there was no such rule that everyone except the prince was a pig.
But this is a bit bad, that is, the prince is always worried about his brothers who enjoy the same royal education as himself to compete for the throne.
And in case, for example, now that the crown prince is going to hang, those princes will definitely stage a battle for the throne.
However, the battle for the throne of these princes relied on the manpower they recruited to fight for it, and if it was a prince who had no support from the court, he would not be qualified to compete at all.
That's because, although the princes have a noble status, they actually have no power, no authority, and they have a princely identity, that is, some officials fancy one of them can sit in the position of the emperor, so they defect to the past, and then the rights of this official are equal to the rights of the prince, and then they can compete with other princes.
But there is a problem here, that is, this right is not their own, and it has to be transferred through officials, so when implementing the prince's will, there will be a problem of delay and discount. Even below, the low-level officials who execute are on the side of other princes, and it is normal for the orders of the princes supported by their superiors to not be carried out at all.
Of course, unlike the prince supported by the superior, it is not easy for the subordinate official to do things for the prince to whom he is loyal, because the boss can stop the executive order at any time.
This is the limitation of the princes, they have a high status, and they can rely on the deterrence of the imperial power to deter many people, but when there is a real problem, it is difficult to move an inch, because they have no real authority of their own.
But the prince is different, the prince is the loser of the competition for the throne, but he can still get the prince after the defeat, which shows that he has already mastered the power during the princely period, so that the emperor cannot deprive him of this power.
Therefore, no matter what kind of mentality the prince is canonized by the emperor, the prince has the authority, as long as he is not imprisoned and waiting for death, any prince can crush most of the officials.
Therefore, Zhang Zhongjun offended the Thirteen Princes, or because the natives of Magong Town offended the Thirteen Princes, even if he fought against the Thirteen Princes, the natives of Magong Town would be on their side, and they would definitely be able to make the Thirteen Princes anxious.
But if the prince targets himself, it will be sad, not only will the people of Magong Town not stand on his side, I am afraid that they will fall into the well!
It's a very simple thing, the thirteen princes at most write a letter to the government of Heyuan Mansion, and then ask the other party to remove themselves from their positions, and the Heyuan Mansion will only give a reply if it is in line with their own interests, or even simply ignore it.
But the prince can be relieved of his position by directly issuing a royal order, and he does not need to go through the Heyuan Mansion at all. Just like the previous royal order issued by the prince to seal the city for 10 days, as well as to recruit all the officials of the city to fight in the city, and to reward the nobles for meritorious service, these are all things that the prince can do with a royal order. If he dares to lock down the city for 10 days, he will definitely be bombarded and unable to step down.
So Zhang Zhongjun, who wanted to understand this, had to suffer a little loss for himself and endure not to swallow up all his merits.
