Chapter 42: He Wants to Be the Uncrowned King

With the advent of winter, all parts of Daming began to prepare for various disaster relief work, and the rivers and lakes seemed to be completely silent.

However, at some point, a piece of news began to spread slowly across the rivers and lakes.

It is rumored that in the area of Jingzhou City in the east of the Ming Dynasty, there is a treasure of Liancheng that is about to be born, and the treasures in it are not only rich and valuable, but also have countless martial arts cheats, which hide a peerless miracle.

It is said that whoever obtains this peerless magic skill can become a peerless master, become a legendary celestial powerhouse, and a land immortal.

As soon as this news came out, the whole rivers and lakes were shaken.

Countless forces were ready to move and began to gather towards Jingzhou City.

Beijing, Xichang Yamen.

Yuhuatian's face was indifferent, he looked at Cao Zhengchun and Tan Luzi in front of him, and asked, "How is it?" Have you found the source of the message? ”

Tan Luzi shook his head: "Governor, I haven't found out yet, the person who spreads the news has great powers, and he is by no means an ordinary person, otherwise it would be impossible for the news to spread all over the rivers and lakes in such a short time, and now the entire rivers and lakes are in chaos, and even the southern rivers and lakes that have just calmed down have forces ready to move, and they began to secretly go to Jingzhou City, obviously thinking about the treasures of the city." ”

Next to him, Cao Zhengchun also bowed slightly, frowned, and said: "This method of spreading the news, how do you feel that it is somewhat similar to the previous calculation of the Dragon Protector Villa and the establishment of a bureau to kill the Iron Courage God Marquis......

Yu Huatian nodded, he felt it too.

It's not similar, it's just identical.

In order to deal with Zhu Wuzhi before, he used the King Kong Incorruptible Divine Skill and the Dafa of Absorbing Gong as a guide, attracting people from all walks of life to sneak into the capital, the purpose was to use the hands of the Jianghu people to deal with Zhu Wuzhi, and wait until the end of the day when he came forward to clean up the mess.

And this time, no less.

Some people use the treasures of Liancheng and the so-called peerless magic layout to attract people from all walks of life to Jingzhou City.

What the purpose is, it is not known for the time being.

But Yu Huatian always had a hunch that the person behind the spread of the news was only for him!

Tan Luzi hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Overseer, will it be the ...... of the Blue Dragon Society?"

Yu Huatian's eyes narrowed slightly, and he nodded: "There is this possibility, send a message to Murong Qiudi, let her people find out where the source of the news came from, and in addition, send someone to Jingzhou City to see if the treasure is true." ”

Liancheng Treasure, this is the plot in Jin Yong's martial arts 'Liancheng Jue', if the plot remains the same, the treasure is probably true.

But in this world of comprehensive martial arts, Yuhuatian is not sure.

You still have to check it first.

"Yes, Overseer!" Tan Luzi solemnly bowed his hand, and then turned to leave.

Yuhuatian pondered for a moment, looked at Cao Zhengchun, who was still standing and waiting, and said, "Yuhua Palace, are you ready?" ”

Cao Zhengchun hurriedly stepped forward and replied respectfully: "Lord Qiqi, everything is ready, our people are staring at it, to ensure that not a single fly can fly out." ”

"Hmm."

Yu Huatian nodded, then looked at the blue-faced killer Zhao Tong on the side, and said lightly: "Let Ye Gucheng make a move, do it cleanly, don't let people find out." ”

"Yes!"

Zhao Tong saluted respectfully, and then left.

Yu Huatian sat on the Taishi's chair, looking in the direction of the palace, and the murderous intent was raging in his eyes.

Before the affairs in the palace were dealt with, another treasure came out.

If this is true, then he must have to go to Jingzhou City in person.

Now in the capital, except for Zhu Youxiao, he is the most powerful, and it is not appropriate for anyone else to go except him.

But before leaving, the hidden danger of Jiang Yuyan must be solved.

This woman is ruthless and ambitious, and she must be eliminated as soon as possible!

Yuhuatian got up, looked at Cao Zhengchun, and said, "Cao Zhengchun, you follow me into the palace to see how the emperor's body is doing." ”

As soon as Concubine Wan Guifei died, Jiang Yuyan was Zhu Youxiao's only favorite concubine at this moment, two days ago because of Concubine Wan Guixiao's self-hanging, Zhu Youxiao felt guilty, plus physical reasons, so he went to Yuhua Palace a lot less, otherwise Zhu Youxiao basically went to Yuhua Palace every night to stay overnight, and even stayed with Jiang Yuyan during the day.

But now that Zhu Youxiao's health is gradually improving, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not suddenly prostitute himself again and go to Yuhua Palace to find Jiang Yuyan to make piles.

So Yuhuatian had to find a way to drag Zhu Youxiao.

"Yes, Overseer!"

Cao Zhengchun bowed down to receive the order, and then followed Yuhuatian out of the door and went to the palace.

Imperial Palace, Qianqing Palace.

The God Devouring Gu in his body was removed, coupled with the joint efforts of Ge Zhi and other divine doctors, Zhu Youxiao's complexion looked a lot better, and he had already begun to deal with government affairs.

As winter approaches, government affairs have become much busier again.

Every year, the prevention of snow and frost is a big problem, and it requires countless silver taels, otherwise thousands of people will be killed and injured.

Although the current state treasury is not short of money for the time being, when it comes to such a huge amount of money, many things still need to be handled by Zhu Youxiao personally, so as to prevent some people from enriching their own pockets and embezzling public funds.

After Liu Jin's death, Zhu Youxiao was replaced by a little eunuch, which was arranged by Yu Huatian himself.

Seeing Yuhuatian coming, the little eunuch hurriedly reminded: "Your Majesty, Lord Yu is here." ”

"Huh?"

When Zhu Youxiao heard this, he put down his hand and looked up, and sure enough, he saw a figure wearing a silver and white python robe striding in at the door of the main hall, and it was Yuhuatian.

Zhu Youxiao's face was slightly pale, he waved his hand, motioned for the little eunuch to go out, and then beckoned to Yuhuatian, and said, "Aiqing is here?" Have a seat. ”

"Your Majesty."

Yuhuatian's face was calm, and he didn't refuse, and walked directly to the chair next to him and sat down.

Cao Zhengchun stood by honestly, not daring to have any ideas.

"The emperor's complexion looks much better in the past two days." Yu Huatian looked at Zhu Youxiao and said lightly.

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said with emotion: "Yes, it seems that listening to Aiqing is really right, after the last time I was conditioned by that group of divine doctors, I woke up and felt that my body was unprecedentedly relaxed, and my appetite has improved a lot in the past few days." ”

Hearing this, Yu Huatian smiled faintly and didn't say much.

In order not to worry Zhu Youxiao and affect his emotions, from beginning to end, Yuhuatian never told him about his Gu, Zhu Youxiao always thought that he was just congenitally in bad health, and he was sick from falling into the water last time.

And now that the Gu poison has been cleared, there is no need to tell him.

Sometimes the unknown is also a blessing.

Yu Huatian said softly: "That group of divine doctors still has some ability, as long as the emperor is willing to cooperate with their treatment, his health will get better and better day by day in the future." ”

Zhu Youxiao grinned and nodded again and again: "Listen to Aiqing." ”

After several rebellions, Zhu Youxiao has thoroughly seen who is the one who is really good to him, and now he has a lot of trust in Yuhuatian.

Such a courtier who is loyal to the Ming Dynasty and always cares about his body, where is he looking for?

Moreover, since Wan Guifei hanged herself, Zhu Youxiao has also figured out many things, that is, people must know how to cherish it, and they can't regret it after they lose it, and it will be too late then.

So at this moment, facing Yuhuatian, he can really be regarded as reassuring.

Seeing the smile on Zhu Youxiao's face, Yu Huatian also smiled.

The king treats me as a countryman, and I repay him as a countryman.

He has no interest in this throne, as long as Zhu Youxiao does not live up to him, he will not think about rebellion.

His pursuit, from beginning to end, was not here.

At this time, Zhu Youxiao seemed to think of something, and suddenly said: "By the way, Aiqing, I heard that there is a treasure in the rivers and lakes recently, can this matter be true?" ”

Yu Huatian was slightly stunned, and then nodded and said: "Your Majesty, this matter has already been investigated, and I believe that the authenticity of this matter will soon be confirmed." ”

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "Then Aiqing still needs more snacks, although I am not short of money for the time being, but if there is really such a priceless treasure, no matter what, I can't let it fall into the hands of outsiders." ”

"Yes, I understand."

Yu Huatian bowed slightly, he knew what Zhu Youxiao meant.

If this treasure is real, then even if the court does not get it, it must not let anyone else get it.

Because of such a huge fortune, no matter who controls it, it will slowly breed ambition and even rebellion.

This is a situation that no emperor wants to see.

Therefore, before these situations happen, we must find ways to prevent them before they happen.

"You do it, I don't worry." Zhu Youxiao smiled.

"The emperor praised it falsely." Yu Huatian smiled faintly.

Next, he pulled Zhu Youxiao to pull around, and even told Zhu Youxiao some interesting things about the rivers and lakes.

Anyway, his purpose is just to drag Zhu Youxiao is enough, it doesn't matter what he says.

And Zhu Youxiao may be the reason why his health has improved, he has been in a good mood recently, and he has gradually come out of the incident of Wan Guifei's self-hanging, but he is also happy to listen to Yuhuatian's chat.

In this way, Zhu Youxiao reviewed the recital, and occasionally chatted with Yuhuatian, and the two of them stayed in this Qianqing Palace for an afternoon.

Of course, the two didn't do anything, just chatted.

And when Yuhuatian was chatting with Zhu Youxiao in the Qianqing Palace.

On the other side, in the Yuhua Palace.

Jiang Yuyan, who was dressed in a palace costume and had a bewitching and charming figure, sat cross-legged on the bed in the palace and exercised, faintly exuding a terrifying terrifying power on her body.

Stomping~

But at this moment, in the originally quiet palace, there was a sudden sound of footsteps, and then a figure appeared in the hall, looking at Jiang Yuyan on the bed, a touch of surprise appeared in his eyes, and said:

"It's really surprising that you actually practiced martial arts."

"Who?!"

Jiang Yuyan was taken aback, suddenly opened her eyes, and then without thinking about it, she slapped her palm in the direction where the voice came from.

Boom –

A sky-blue True Qi suddenly broke through the air, bringing up a sharp wind.

It's just that as soon as this true qi approached the figure, it disappeared without a trace.

Jiang Yuyan's pupils shrank suddenly, she turned to look, and her face suddenly changed: "It's Ling!" Ye Gucheng?! ”

The person who came was dressed in white, with an arrogant and cold appearance, holding a flying rainbow sword, it was Ye Gucheng.

The last time the prince of Fuwang rebelled, Jiang Yuyan was by Zhu Youxiao's side, and naturally he had also seen the famous Sword Saint of Feixian Island.

At this moment, looking at Ye Gucheng sneaking into Yuhua Palace, she looked vigilant and said, "Ye Gucheng, what do you want to do when you break into the dormitory of this palace?" ”

Ye Gucheng glanced at her and said lightly: "Don't worry, a woman like you, I can't be interested in you." ”

When Jiang Yuyan heard this, her face turned pale, and then she reached out and grabbed it, her true qi surged, and a powerful suction force suddenly appeared between her palms.

But this suction force also had no effect on Ye Gucheng, but he felt the abnormal movement of the true qi in his body, and a trace of surprise appeared in Ye Gucheng's eyes: "Absorbing power in the air? Zhu ignored the Dafa of absorbing gong? ”

"I'm underestimating you."

Ye Gucheng said, his eyes narrowed slightly, his figure flashed, and he instantly appeared in front of Jiang Yuyan and grabbed Jiang Yuyan's shoulder.

Jiang Yuyan's face changed slightly, and she immediately wanted to retreat and dodge.

But the next moment, she was horrified to find that no matter how fast she was, that slender palm was always with her, and she couldn't dodge it at all.

The difference in strength is too great.

In front of this Flying Immortal Island Sword Saint, she had no power to fight back at all.

Poof-

Grabbing Jiang Yuyan's shoulder, the powerful sword intent locked it, followed by a stronger stream of true qi gushing out, directly suppressing the true qi in Jiang Yuyan's body.

Jiang Yuyan's whole body went limp, her face turned pale, she stared at Ye Gucheng, gritted her teeth and said, "Ye Gucheng, what do you want to do?!" ”

Ye Gucheng said lightly: "What do you want to do, you will know soon, it won't be you anyway." ”

Jiang Yuyan: "......"

After speaking, Ye Gucheng didn't mean to talk nonsense with her anymore, and stretched out his hand to his chest, Jiang Yuyan suddenly rolled her eyes and fainted.

Then Ye Gucheng grabbed Jiang Yuyan and wanted to leave.

But at this moment, a powerful aura suddenly appeared in the main hall, locking Ye Gucheng.

Ye Gucheng's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly raised his head, only to see a profound figure appear in front of him at some point, staring at him coldly.

It's Zheng He!

Seeing Zheng He, Ye Gucheng's face was solemn.

Yu Huatian meant to take Jiang Yuyan away secretly, in order to prevent Zheng He from being alarmed, Yu Huatian also deliberately asked him to come, just to prevent Zheng He from interfering in this matter.

But he didn't expect that Jiang Yuyan would actually know martial arts, and the movement of the two fighting still alarmed Zheng He.

Ye Gucheng sighed lightly in his heart, was silent for a moment, bowed slightly towards Zheng He, and said, "I've seen my predecessors." ”

Zheng He ignored it indifferently, still staring at him coldly: "What does Yuhuatian want to do?" ”

He knew that Ye Gucheng was a person from Yuhuatian.

With Ye Gucheng's character, it is impossible to do this kind of thing, then there is only one possibility, catching Jiang Yuyan is the meaning of Yuhuatian.

Thinking of this, a trace of coldness flashed in Zheng He's eyes.

He didn't expect that Yuhuatian would be so rebellious that even the emperor and concubine dared to move!

Noticing the cold light in Zheng He's eyes, Ye Gucheng hurriedly said: "The seniors misunderstood, there are other reasons for this matter, the seniors should understand the overseer, and the overseer has no ill will towards the emperor." ”

Zheng He frowned: "Then what does he want to do when he catches the emperor's concubine?" ”

Ye Gucheng hesitated for a moment, but still chose to tell the truth: "This woman has something to do with the death of Wan Guifei Niangniang, she colluded with outsiders and killed Wan Guifei, another murderer, and she has also been punished at this moment." ”

Gong Dou?

Hearing this, Zheng He immediately understood what Ye Gucheng meant, his brows furrowed a little tighter, and he said in a deep voice: "Since there is evidence, why don't you report it to the emperor, but do it privately?" ”

Ye Gucheng was silent and said: "The predecessors have lived in the deep palace for a long time, and they should know how much the emperor loves this woman, and even abandoned the government for her, even if the emperor knows the truth of this matter, he can't bear to kill her." ”

"But the seniors also saw it just now, this woman not only colluded with outsiders and brutalized Zhongliang, but also practiced martial arts secretly, obviously hiding evil intentions, if she is allowed to live, I am afraid that the palace will not be peaceful."

"Moreover, the emperor's health is not good, and he is still singing with this woman every night, if it goes on like this for a long time, I am afraid it will be ......"

Speaking of this, Ye Gucheng shook his head and didn't say anything more.

But Zheng He's face changed slightly, and he immediately understood what he meant.

He knew that Ye Gucheng's words were not alarmist.

Leaving such a dangerous woman in the palace is indeed a scourge.

Zheng He was silent for a long time, looked at Jiang Yuyan, who was unconscious in Ye Gucheng's arms, and said, "Don't take it as an example." Go back and tell Yuhuatian that in the future, you must talk about the rules. ”

Ye Gucheng's heart was relieved, and he didn't say much, nodding and saying, "I will report to the Overseer truthfully in the future." ”

After speaking, he hugged Jiang Yuyan, his figure flashed, and he quickly disappeared into the dormitory.

At this time, the clear light in the hall flashed, and another figure appeared in the main hall, and the person who came was the mighty king of nothingness.

Looking at the direction of Ye Gucheng's departure, his brows furrowed, and he said: "This son is acting more and more unruly, are you sure that he will not be harmful to my Daming country in the future?" ”

"Not sure." Zheng He shook his head.

Nothingness: "......"

Zheng He was silent for a moment and said: "With a crippled body, he can't sit on the throne, at least until he breaks through the Heavenly Man, he won't dare to do this, but if he breaks through the Heavenly Man, he will no longer be interested in this position." ”

Void said in a deep voice: "He wants to be the uncrowned king? ”

Zheng He said silently: "At present, it seems that this is very possible. ”

Void frowned: "What does he want to do?!" ”

Zheng He shook his head and sighed, and said: "This son has great ambitions, I suspect that his goal is not just as simple as being an uncrowned king of the Ming Dynasty......"

A look of horror appeared in his eyes: "You mean, he still wants to set off a war and aim to fight in the entire Shenzhou?!" ”

"Who knows?"

Zheng He shook his head: "It's just a guess, I can't see it for the time being." ”

As he spoke, he sighed lightly: "Let's take one step at a time, while we can barely suppress him now, if we can persuade him, we will persuade more, Daming can't be destroyed in his hands." ”

After speaking, Zheng He turned around and left.

In the same place, there is no silence.

Advise?

If a person breeds ambition, who can dissuade him?

Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Youzheng and Yuhuatian had a very happy conversation, and the monarchs and ministers had a heart-to-heart relationship, and they were happy.

But at this time, a guard of the forbidden army suddenly came to report, his face full of anxiety: "Your Majesty, it's not good, Yuhua Palace was attacked, and Concubine Jing was arrested!" ”

"What?!"

Zhu Youxiao was suddenly shocked, and hurriedly got up: "Who is so bold that he dares to arrest people in the palace?!" ”

The guard of the forbidden army had an ugly face and said: "The martial arts of the person who came are extremely high, and the guards who did not alarm the patrol were not found for the time being." ”

Zhu Youxiao was furious: "You rice buckets, what do I usually raise you for, so that people don't know if they sneak into the palace?!" ”

Saying that, Zhu Youxiao turned to look at Yuhuatian again, and said angrily:

"Yuhuatian, I put you in charge of the harem, and the East and West Second Factory and Jinyiwei are handed over to you, this is the result you handed over to me?!"

Yuhuatian was not in a hurry, got up and arched his hand and said: "The minister is guilty, please punish the emperor." ”

"What's the use of reprimanding now?!"

Zhu Youxiao said angrily: "Go check immediately, block the whole city for me, and you must find Concubine Jing and ensure her safety!" ”

People can be found, but safety cannot be guaranteed.

Yuhuatian's face was calm, and he didn't say anything, and arched his hand: "The minister's order." ”

With that, he turned and left.

In the hall, Zhu Youxiao's face was anxious, and he didn't have the heart to review and read the folds, so he kept pacing back and forth in the hall.

In the end, I was still not at ease, and rushed to Yuhua Palace in person, ready to see the scene.

Concubine Wan is dead, Concubine Jing Jiang Yuyan is already his last physical and mental sustenance, but nothing must happen!
