Chapter 71: Face Saint 1
There is no former guard of honor, and there is no former front and back hug, there is only one little eunuch in front to lead the way, and Li Haotian is walking in a figure eight step, not in a hurry. He knew that this time he was like a big test, and if he dealt with it well, he might lose his life. I don't know if it's good or bad that my pulse ring can absorb human connections, and I can't reveal it in front of them, so I pretend that I can't release my pulse ring, and let's talk about it after figuring out this matter.
The people who met on the road still saluted Li Haotian one after another, but it was no longer the original kneeling salute, but bowing to one side, just facing the etiquette of ordinary princes. And Li Haotian smiled and nodded to everyone, and even met Liu Zhi, the original commander of the East Palace, who had been transferred to patrol elsewhere.
He had a good relationship with Liu Zhi, and Liu Zhi hurriedly saluted him when he saw him, but he didn't dare to step forward to speak, which made Li Haotian's "cold" feeling more and more obvious.
Finally arrived outside the imperial study, Li Haotian was about to stride in, and suddenly a beautiful woman came out from the side.
"Oh my God, my God. It was the queen who arrived and took Li Haotian into her arms at once.
"The Queen Mother. Li Haotian was hugged tightly, and he felt that the queen really cared about herself, so she was also a little moved.
"Oh my God, you're thin and dark. The queen let go of Li Haotian and looked up and down a few times. Li Haotian knew that after he was placed under house arrest, even the queen was only allowed to visit a few times. And after the crown prince was deposed, the queen pleaded repeatedly until Emperor Zhenyu even disappeared. At this time, the empress heard that the emperor had summoned her son, so she hurried over, and finally saw her son at the door.
"The queen mother can rest assured that her son is very good. Li Haotian held back tears.
The queen took him into her arms again, "Don't worry, Tian'er, the queen mother will try to save you." The queen whispered beside Li Haotian.
Li Haotian was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what the queen meant. It seems that the real crown prince is definitely not born to the emperor himself, and the empress thinks that the emperor deposed the prince because of that incident. Hearing this, the queen thought that the emperor would still do something bad to her, so Li Haotian hurriedly said "grace".
"If there is any arrangement, I will let Spades inform you. The queen whispered again.
At this time, the eunuch in the imperial study said in a loud voice: "Emperor Xuan's son Li Haotian has come to see you." ”
This was obviously the emperor's urging, so the queen gently touched Li Haotian's face and nodded encouragingly.
Li Haotian said goodbye to the queen, took a deep breath, and strode into the familiar imperial study.
Emperor Zhenyu sat upright behind the imperial book, his left hand sat the old patriarch with white hair, and the right hand position stood the prime minister and the wind knife.
Li Haotian took two steps and quickly knelt down.
"The sons and daughters visited their fathers and the old patriarch. Li Haotian said.
"Bang!", Emperor Zhenyu took the case, Li Haotian was startled, and his body kept trembling. This is naturally a pretend, because in such an occasion, he has to pretend to be afraid.
"Father, father, father. Li Haotian kowtowed again.
The rest of the matter was as Li Haotian expected, and the furious Emperor Zhenyu asked him to tell what happened that day. Li Haotian said resignedly, but he did not explain that he took the initiative to absorb the universal spirit bead, but said that he had no intention of starting to absorb it in a hurry. He even said that he left the altar to lure away the pulse beast and ensure the safety of His Majesty. As for Shelley's matter, he reported it truthfully, and when Shelley said that there was a flaw in a universal spirit bead, Li Haotian was extremely angry, saying that the elves had deceived the Heavenly Dragon Empire and His Majesty.
After Li Haotian finished speaking, he secretly looked at Emperor Zhenyu, and saw that his originally angry face eased a lot.
"Father. Li Haotian finally said: "The elf exchanged the flawed universal spirit bead to our country, which was obviously shoddy, and asked my father to send troops to attack the heaven-given realm." ”
As soon as these words came out, the old patriarch snorted, and secretly said that this ignorant child, except for the occasional harassment of the night elves for tens of thousands of years, no one dared to show the heaven-given realm.
The wind knife frowned slightly, and the old prime minister shook his head.
Emperor Zhenyu looked at Li Haotian's indignant appearance, but he was extremely satisfied in his heart. However, he could hear that Li Haotian rarely mentioned Shelley, and when Shelley suddenly returned, it was to inform Li Haotian that there was something wrong with the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Bead. Could it be that the elves had already seen that they were going to give the questionable universal spirit bead to the prince, or did they know better?
It's just that listening to Li Haotian's words, although he was indignant at the white elf, but he had more maintenance than Shelley, this kid was so good with the elf princess, but he underestimated him a little. Emperor Zhenyu didn't want to get entangled more in the matter of the Universal Spirit Bead, so he immediately asked about another matter, whether Li Haotian had already opened the pulse ring.
Li Haotian pretended to work hard, but he couldn't release the pulse ring no matter what. The people sitting were all human spirits, Li Haotian knew that it was not easy to conceal it, and even almost went mad, and only stopped when he was stopped by the wind knife. Everyone naturally didn't believe it, but they didn't have any other ideas, most people hoped that it was true that Li Haotian couldn't release the pulse ring, but his pulse reaction was obviously the level of the third level of pulse life.
A hint of surprise flashed on the faces of Emperor Zhenyu, and he even invited the pulse measuring master, Old General Feng, to test the spiritual vein again. The spiritual veins had been opened, and it was much easier to test again, but sweat broke out on the forehead of Old General Feng, who was holding the crystal plate. He even began to wonder if his test two months ago had gone wrong. Because Li Haotian's spiritual veins at this time are clearly and healthy, there is no trace of impropriety.
The seven-layer innate spirit veins displayed on the crystal disc were extremely clear, and they were not at all the eight-layer mutated spirit veins that had been tested originally. General Feng changed several methods to test, and the results were all the same. Although he detected that there seemed to be another strange pulse in Li Haotian's body, this pulse was similar to the elven divine vein, but he didn't dare to bring it up again, for fear that he would make a mistake again. If it is an ordinary person, it will be retested by the wrong spiritual vein, but this time the person who is tested is the prince of the country.
Old General Feng was so frightened that he knelt down in front of Emperor Zhenyu, he had committed the crime of bullying the king. However, it was precisely because of his sudden lack of confidence that the matter of the elven divine pulse in Li Haotian's body was hidden.
Emperor Zhenyu did not punish the crime, but comforted the old general a few words, but since then, the imperial family has been replaced by someone else. General Feng knew that although he had saved his life, his reputation was ruined. So when I left, I was a little faltering.
Li Haotian looked at his back, and his heart was also strange. Why did his original eight-layer vein ring become a normal seven-layer at this time? Naturally, he didn't know that the racket was connected to him all day long, and his understanding of all parts of his body had surpassed his own. After figuring out the problem with Li Haotian's spiritual vein, he immediately solved the mutation of the mutated spiritual vein for Li Haotian with the help of Shelley's elven divine vein.
Old General Feng's departure made everyone silent. Because everyone understands that the "prince" replied very cleverly, on the one hand, admitting that he was guilty, on the other hand, saying that he justified his actions for the sake of saving the driver, and said that the elves deceived him. When he said that the flawed universal spirit bead, the color of righteous indignation overflowed.
Fengdao pondered for a long time, and at the same time speculated about the emperor's thoughts to decide whether he should protect the prince or give up the prince. At this time, after listening to Li Haotian's argument, and then seeing that most of the anger in the emperor's eyes had disappeared, he said in his heart that if he wanted to be in charge of the government, he must let this "crown prince" inherit the throne. Thinking of this, he stepped up and said: "Your Majesty, although the minister thinks that the prince has had, he is worried about His Majesty's safety and for the sake of the empire. Moreover, at this time, he was suffering a strange injury and could not release the pulse ring, and the injury was not under the elf princess. So ......"
