Chapter 428: The Old Day Is Dead, The New Day Should Be Established
Tangerine spoke quickly, and in an orderly manner, he briefly informed Jing Hongchen of what had happened in the morning. Whether it was Xu Sheng or Beidi Douluo, they didn't even hide the death of the old emperor.
Jing Hongchen only felt that the whole world was full of absurdity, because he knew clearly in his heart that the royal family member named Xu Sheng was not the blood of the previous emperor, but Huo Yuhao disguised.
The shock forced his eyes to widen, and he wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start.
At this time, another familiar voice sounded in his head, and Jing Hongchen froze, put away the surprise in his eyes, and became cloudy.
Tangerine continued to ask: "Red Dust Hall Master, we also learned the news of the Northland family for the first time from you, it was the person behind Yuhao's junior brother, I wonder if you have a deeper understanding of them?" ”
Jing Hongchen was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Crown princess, the old minister has only met with them a few times, and he doesn't know much. ”
Tangerine didn't ask too much, but continued: "Hongchen Hall Master, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is bound to win the throne, and only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can lead the Sun and Moon Empire to unify the continent. ”
"Therefore, in the next Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, even if the opponent is Extreme Douluo, he is only allowed to succeed, not to fail."
"I also hope that the Red Dust Hall Master will be ready for the rest of the Mingde Hall masters, and cooperate with the army, so that you must defeat the enemy with one blow, and you can also minimize the damage."
"The specific details will be arranged slowly after His Royal Highness the Prince, and the orange will retire first."
Tangerine's voice was involuntarily low, as if he was worried about being eavesdropped, even if there was no outsider in the room, Lin Jiayi, who came to inform Jing Hongchen, retreated outside the office and waited.
She didn't stay long, saluted, and quickly exited the office, leaving Sun Moon Academy and heading in the direction of the barracks.
"Senior Brother Yuhao......" Tangerine muttered, a glint of emotion flashed in his eyes, but the speed under his feet did not decrease at all.
After the orange left, Jing Hongchen sat down with a gloomy face, and did not call in Lin Jiayi, who was waiting outside the door, but called another name that was not theoretically present at all.
"Huo Yuhao, you're in the room, right?"
There was no second person in the empty office except Jing Hongchen, but he was so sure, a pair of small eyes staring straight at the air in front of him.
The space opposite the desk was like a disturbed calm lake, and then with the ripples of the water, Huo Yuhao's figure appeared impressively.
Huo Yuhao greeted calmly: "Hongchen Hall Master. ”
Jing Hongchen's face was gloomy, and he said lightly: "This is not the place to talk, go to my Hongchen Mansion." You go first, and when you arrive, look for Ah Heng, he knows you, and I will come immediately. ”
Ah Heng is the housekeeper of Hongchen Mansion, and the last time he visited Hongchen Mansion, he was Huo Yuhao who received him.
Huo Yuhao nodded slightly, and the figure disappeared from the room again.
In fact, he came to Jing Hongchen one step ahead of Tangerine, but when he arrived, he had already discovered the existence of Tangerine with spiritual detection, so he didn't show up for the time being, and silently overheard Xu Tianran's plan on the side.
The combined army also has Mingde Hall, if he uses the ninth-level customized soul guide cannonball regardless of the consequences, maybe Xu Tianran can really kill an Extreme Douluo like Long Xiaoyao.
But it's a pity that Xu Tianran's plan was about to be shattered before it started, because Jing Hongchen and Mingdetang didn't really completely obey Xu Tianran, they were also the targets of Huo Yuhao's struggle.
Huo Yuhao's figure disappeared, and Jing Hongchen called Lin Jiayi outside the door loudly: "Jiayi." ”
Lin Jiayi ran in in a hurry: "Hall Master, what are your orders?" ”
Jing Hongchen breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The main reconstruction of Mingde Hall has finally been completed, I am a little tired these days, and I want to go back to the house to rest for a few days." ”
Lin Jiayi was not surprised at all, and said with concern: "Hall Master, you haven't had much rest in the past few days, even if you are a Title Douluo, you can't bear it, and the rest of the work is enough for us." ”
Mingde Hall also has quite sufficient experience in reconstruction, and it can be carried out in an orderly manner without Jing Hongchen personally presiding.
Jing Hongchen asked casually, "Are the two children of Xiao and Meng also busy?" ”
Lin Jiayi nodded: "Xiao Hongchen has been helping with the reconstruction work, and his ability to control metal has improved very quickly, Hall Master, I'm afraid it will be better than when you were young." ”
The demand for soul guides for the complete reconstruction of Mingde Hall has suddenly surged to an unprecedented level, and almost all senior students and researchers have put themselves into their work, but under such high-pressure work, their soul guide level has also improved to varying degrees, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.
Jing Hongchen frowned and said with some loss: "It's better not to come to such an opportunity for progress." ”
"Where's Ziwen?"
Lin Jiayi replied: "Teacher Xuan is one of the main forces of the work, and he is responsible for many of the soul guides used for work, and he is busier than Wu Lao. ”
"It's a pity that I still have to be in charge of teaching, so I can't help too much."
Speaking of this, Lin Jiayi showed a hint of regret, although Mingde Hall is going to be rebuilt, the classes of Sun Moon Academy cannot be stopped.
"Inform the three of them, wait for my news at any time, and if there are outsiders visiting the three of them, they will all refuse on the grounds of work, even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess."
"I'll leave the academy for a while."
Jing Hongchen finally gave an order and left the office.
"Walk slowly, you have a good rest." Lin Jiayi respectfully watched Jing Hongchen leave.
But Jing Hongchen's last order, combined with the orange he suddenly visited, made him vaguely guess something.
Northwest of the Ming capital, Hongchen Mansion.
At the gate of the manor, Jing Hongchen put away his flying soul guide and landed smoothly, and the housekeeper Ah Heng had been waiting for a long time.
"Sir." Ah Heng hurriedly greeted him and said respectfully, "You are back, I have arranged for Huo Xiaoyou to wait in your study." ”
Jing Hongchen nodded and walked towards the antique building in the manor, where he had also talked to Huo Yuhao before.
"Ah Heng, you are waiting outside the building."
"Yes."
Jing Hongchen breathed a sigh of relief and walked into his study, where Huo Yuhao was sitting in the center of the room.
Huo Yuhao greeted calmly again: "Hongchen Hall Master." ”
There were no outsiders, even the most trusted housekeeper was guarded outside the building, and only Huo Yuhao and Jing Hongchen were left in the room.
And Jing Hongchen could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, and yelled: "Huo Yuhao, do you know what you're doing? ”
No longer have to worry about being heard by outsiders, Jing Hongchen vented his emotions without reservation.
"How bold you are! Faking your royal identity, you're stealing the country, you know? ”
Only he and Xiao Hongchen knew Huo Yuhao's fake identity, but he didn't directly debunk it when Tangerine visited before, and he endured it until now before he finally broke out.
An angry roar resounded throughout the study, and Jing Hongchen's eyes were red, really like a hideous-looking toad.
Huo Yuhao looked directly at Jing Hongchen and replied calmly: "Hongchen Hall Master, you are right, I am stealing the country. ”
In Jing Hongchen's angry gaze, Huo Yuhao let out a rhetorical question.
"But so what?"
Huo Yuhao's gaze was extremely sharp, and he looked at Jing Hongchen without fear.
"If the emperor of this country can steal it, I can't steal it? This is the privilege of his Xu family, right? ”
Jing Hongchen was so angry that he couldn't speak: "You, you ......"
Only then did he realize that his previous premonition of luring the wolf into the house was by no means groundless.
Huo Yuhao is a person with unparalleled ambition hidden under his outstanding talent, and whoever tries to control his power for his own use is destined to be eaten by this ambition.
"Hongchen Hall Master, let me ask you, what is the foundation of the Xu family to become the Sun and Moon Imperial Family and rule the Sun and Moon Empire?"
"Ren, or Wu?"
Huo Yuhao asked two questions one after another, but Jing Hongchen didn't answer and couldn't answer.
Huo Yuhao said in a deep voice: "On benevolence, the Xu family colluded with the Holy Spirit Sect and the Evil Soul Master, and regarded the people of Mingdu as ants, how can they be called benevolent?" ”
"On martial arts?"
He paused and asked coldly: "Then in the troubled world, those who can live in it, why not replace me?" ”
Jing Hongchen gritted his teeth and roared loudly: "Even if Your Majesty is guilty, it should be passed on to the crown prince, and if the prince is guilty, it should be passed on to the third prince." Is there any reason for you to have a foreign surname instead? ”
"Why not?"
Huo Yuhao's voice was no longer cold, but suddenly high-pitched. He raised his voice, and his tone was not inferior to that of the mirror Hongchen.
"On Ren, I helped you transfer the thirty ninth-level soul guide shells to fight the Holy Spirit Sect and save the people of Mingdu from fire and water!"
"On martial arts, I have the ultimate ice plus ontological martial soul, is it comparable to Xu Tianran's drug-taking defects?"
"Am I not more qualified than him Xu Tianran?"
"Huh?"
As the saying goes, reason is not high, but at this moment, Huo Yuhao, whether it is reason or sound, has overshadowed Jing Hongchen.
Jing Hongchen's face showed a look of pain, and he couldn't refute Huo Yuhao at all. All the sins of the Sun and Moon royal family, he naturally saw it in his eyes.
But as an old minister of the sun and moon, and for the sake of the Hongchen family, he naturally couldn't oppose the old emperor and Xu Tianran, and chose to wait for the opportunity to move and protect himself.
But the loyalty in Jing Hongchen's chest did not allow him to support Huo Yuhao's theft of the country, which made him extremely conflicted and painful.
"Ahh
Jing Hongchen's eyes cracked, and he let out a painful roar, and then the soul power on his body burst out, and thousands of soul guide cannon tubes were densely lined up beside him.
"It's all the old man's fault, leading the wolf into the room for His Majesty, and today I will clean the door for His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Prince!"
He was emotional, with a bright red glow in each barrel. The terrifying energy blasted out, which was enough to directly kill a Titled Douluo powerhouse.
"Yuhao." In the sea of spirits, there was a sound of concern, and the Second Emperor of Ice and Snow would rush out at any time to stop Jing Hongchen.
"I don't need your help, it's the cause and effect between me and the Red Dust Hall Master." Huo Yuhao lightly refused.
He didn't move out of Beidi Douluo, nor did he refuse the help of the Ice and Snow Emperor, nor did he use the simulation to hide his body, just opened his arms and stood in front of Jing Hongchen frankly.
Huo Yuhao asked loudly: "Hongchen Hall Master, do you really think that without me, you can stay out of the matter and sit back and relax?" ”
"With Xu's natural temperament, will you be allowed to work under him all the time?"
Jing Hongchen gritted his teeth tightly, and the soul guide cannon beside him never sent out.
"No, he will only take over your Mingdetang after he has used you up, and then kick you and the Hongchen family away."
Jing Hongchen closed his eyes in pain, how could he not have encountered such a consequence?
"Even so, as a courtier, the old man must not sit idly by and watch this kind of disloyalty and injustice!"
"Your Majesty is my sovereign, this is a bully; Kong Lao is my teacher, this is a deceptive teacher, you are letting the old man be this man who has no king and no teacher! ”
Huo Yuhao scolded loudly: "If you were really that loyal, you should have entered the palace ten years ago, instead of waiting until today to come to Qingjun's side." ”
"Think about laughing, think about dreams, think about your grandchildren, think about your Hongchen family! Think of Mingde Hall! ”
Jing Hongchen finally couldn't bear it anymore and howled in pain.
"Ahh
With a violent roar, thousands of soul guide cannon barrels beside him burst out with dazzling red light at the same time, and under the terrifying power, the walls in front of him were all reduced to ashes.
But Huo Yuhao, who was in it, was unscathed, it was not that Huo Yuhao dodged, but that Jing Hongchen did not aim at him at all.
Countless cannon barrels were scattered on the ground, making a clanging sound, and Jing Hongchen also lowered his head and hid his face with one hand.
The old man choked up a little and said, "The old man regrets it, I shouldn't have had any love for talent back then." ”
"No, you won't regret it, Hongchen Hall Master, didn't I repay you now?"
"How long do you think you'll be able to successfully disguise? When you have children, your identity will be revealed. ”
Huo Yuhao laughed and said, "Hongchen Hall Master, you think of me as vulgar. The first thing I will do after I take the throne is to liquidate the royal family and centralize power. The second thing is to set up a cabinet and delegate imperial power. ”
"And you, Hongchen Hall Master, you are the future head of the cabinet."
"Then, there will be no so-called imperial power in the sun and the moon, and I will replace them with a new class force, even though there are still many problems with this power, and I don't know how to solve them, but compared to those feudal garbage, it still represents progress."
Speaking of this, Huo Yuhao paused and asked, "Hongchen Hall Master, do you remember what the original intention of the establishment of Mingde Hall was?" ”
Jing Hongchen's body trembled obviously, a light flashed in his eyes, and he muttered: "Use the soul guide to promote the progress of the entire human society?" ”
"That's right!"
Jing Hongchen exhaled heavily, and his mood was much calmer.
He said in a low voice: "I think you stood in front of the old man and said that you would serve the sun and the moon in the future. ”
Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "That's right, I will serve the Sun and Moon, but not for the Sun and Moon Empire." I'm not just going to work for the sun and the moon, but the entire continent. ”
He clenched his right hand into a fist and slammed his left chest into the air, shouting.
"The old day is dead, but the new day should be established. The old days are gone, the new days will be replaced! ”
"I am the sun that can lead the sun and the moon forward!"
Jing Hongchen looked at Huo Yuhao, who was arrogant, and the corners of his mouth were a little bitter. Is he really going to help an outsider and destroy the Sun and Moon royal family that he has served all his life?
"Master......" At this time, a voice appeared out of place, it was Ah Heng, the housekeeper of Hongchen Mansion.
Jing Hongchen smashed his study, causing him to come to inquire about the situation.
"Alas......"
Jing Hongchen sighed painfully, and lightly ordered: "Ah Heng, go and help me inform Xiao and Meng, as well as the rest of the Hongchen family." ”
