Chapter 30: Incident
The trial is over, and the prince and princess of this trial have obtained the inheritance of the royal ancestors with the help of Xiyun, and Xiyun has also been added to the rank and knight because he helped the two royal descendants get the inheritance with the power of one person, and he was crowned the Marquis of Shaoyun, and the young marshal of the Shenwei Army. Jiang Liejun, the lord of Yucheng City, gave ten thousand gold without asking about state affairs, and the remaining seven sons of Jiang Liejun were also arranged to hold important positions in the camps of the Shenwei Army.
At the end of the trial, the royal family began to count the achievements and progress of several princes in the trial.
"The eldest prince, Su Tianying, has obtained the royal inheritance of the Emperor Dao Sword, the top-grade inheritance, and is qualified to enter the royal treasury."
In the main hall, hundreds of civil and military officials stood on both sides, and several princes knelt under His Royal Highness. The emperor in a dragon robe sat on a dragon chair, and a sharp voice in the hall read out.
"The second prince, Su Tianhao, has obtained the royal inheritance of the thousand-year-old emperor's dragon qi, the best inheritance, and is given the qualification to enter the royal treasury and the royal secret realm for cultivation."
"The third princess, Su Tianya, has obtained the royal thousand-year-old aura inheritance, the middle-grade inheritance, and is qualified to enter the royal treasury below the third floor."
"The fourth prince, Su Tianming, has obtained the royal thousand-year-old aura inheritance, the royal secret treasure dragon pattern jade seal inheritance, the royal secret treasure dragon pattern brocade robe inheritance, one medium-grade inheritance, two high-grade inheritance, and has been given the qualification to enter the royal treasury and the royal secret realm for cultivation, and become the prince."
"The fifth prince, Su Tianyi, has not obtained the royal inheritance, and his strength has been raised to the level of immortal veins, and he has been given the qualification to enter the first layer of the royal treasury."
The fourth prince, Su Tianming, obtained the three inheritances with the help of the disciples of the Three Holy Sects, and was naturally the one who gained the most in this trial, and according to the royal meaning, the first place in this trial would be made the crown prince and inherit the throne. In the main hall, the crown prince's canonization ceremony was held immediately after, and the fourth prince, Su Tianming, stepped forward to receive the consecration under the protection of the disciples of the Three Holy Sects. The four princes standing on the high platform still looked so humble and polite, and then looked at the disciples of the Three Holy Sects around him, one by one, they were more arrogant than the other, and they looked down on His Highness's civil and military ministers.
The ceremony of the crown prince's canonization was over, the civil and military officials dispersed, and several princes also returned to their respective places.
"What to do? Is it true that seeing the fourth child inherit the unification, my Wind and Thunder Empire will not be suppressed by the Three Holy Sects? ”
In the courtyard of the second prince, Su Tianhao, he really discussed with his henchmen.
"Your Majesty is frail and afraid that time is running out, and the old man thinks that he can ......," an old minister said in the ear of the second prince.
"Kill your father and kill the king, how do you want this king to meet people in the future!"
A group of people in the courtyard of the second prince were discussing something, and on the other side, the eldest prince Su Tianying and the princess Su Tianya were in Jiang Liejun's courtyard, and everyone was waiting for Jiang Liejun to come up with an idea.
"Elder Jiang, the fourth brother has been made the crown prince." The Great Prince said.
"The old man knows." Jiang Liejun said, "The intention of the Three Holy Sects is very obvious, that is, to firmly control the Wind and Thunder Empire through the hands of the crown prince. His Majesty's frailty can be said to be a well-known secret, and it is estimated that in two years, it will be the turn of the crown prince to succeed to the throne, and even if there is a divine mighty army, it will not be able to stop the forces of the Three Holy Sects from infiltrating the Wind and Thunder Empire. ”
"Elder Jiang, what should we do then?" The princess said.
Before the unification of the Wind Thunder Empire, the Three Holy Sects were absolutely the same in the Wind Thunder State. After the unification of the Wind and Thunder Empire, the appearance of the Shenwei Army established a high wall between the secular and the cultivation sects, completely separating the cultivation sects from the secular empire. The cultivators of the Wind Thunder State no longer regard joining the sect as the only choice and a kind of glory, and there are still many disciples of the Three Holy Sects who will go out of the mountain after completing their studies and join the Divine Power Army. This was actually a great threat to the Three Holy Sects and the sect order they had worked so hard to establish.
Therefore, the Three Holy Sects have been looking for an opportunity to regain control of the secular order and make the Three Holy Sects the only divine existence in the Wind Thunder State.
"The fifth prince will not fight, he has lost the qualification to compete. The only one who will still compete with the crown prince is His Royal Highness the Second Prince, I don't know if His Royal Highness will make any moves. Jiang Liejun also expressed his concern, the fact that the Five Princes did not obtain the inheritance in the trial meant that the Emperor had directly given up on the Five Princes, and the Three Holy Sects would not regard him as a threat, just give him an idle prince. The eldest prince and princess, although there is such a great power as Xiyun to support them in the back, but the Three Holy Sects are confident that they can set off any big winds and waves with Xiyun alone. In this way, the only threat is the second prince.
"Brother, what do you think?" Yu Chengcheng looked at Xiyun who was standing in the corner, and Xiyun, who was closing his eyes and recuperating, opened his eyes and stepped forward.
"The fifth prince completely lost the qualification to compete for the throne, and his supporters basically switched to the prince's door, and the Chinese martial arts officials were basically fifty-five points, and it was really difficult to make a conclusion about who would win in the end if there was no intervention of the Three Holy Sects. Therefore, the key to everything lies in the Three Holy Sects. ”
"Yun'er, what do you want to say?" Jiang Liejun seemed to have guessed Xiyun's intentions. Xiyun glanced at Jiang Liejun, and then summoned the Lock Demon Domain.
"Yun'er, have you already used the Lock Demon Domain at will!" Jiang Liejun was a little excited. Xiyun looked at Jiang Liejun and nodded.
"Father-in-law, I don't think there's a need to worry too much for the time being. The fourth prince has just been made the crown prince, and I believe that there will be no action on the side of the second highness. The two highnesses need to go to see Your Majesty from time to time, as long as Your Majesty is still in the Three Holy Sects, they will not mess around, and the brothers need to pay attention to the movements of the Three Holy Sects in the imperial city at all times, and it is best for the righteous father to return to the court to monitor the civil and military officials. ”
"Okay, just do as you say."
According to Xiyun's arrangement, Jiang Liejun re-entered the court, and the emperor was very happy to hear that Jiang Liejun was willing to go out of the mountain again, so he directly worshiped Jiang Liejun as the prime minister and asked him to assist the prince in the future. The eldest prince and princess will often enter the palace to do their filial piety in front of the emperor, and the emperor's mood is much better, and his health is much better than in the past. In other places, Jiang Liejun's righteous sons are taking care of them, and Xiyun has been staying in the Lock Demon Domain to cultivate, and he wants to improve his strength to Immortal Venerable before the Three Holy Sects or the Second Princes get up, so that he can enter the middle level of the Lock Demon Domain, so that he will have a greater chance of winning against the Three Holy Sects.
Time flies like a white horse in a blink of an eye, and more than a year has passed since Xiyun came to this Fenglei Prefecture, although the eldest prince and princess will often enter the palace to take care of the emperor, which makes the emperor feel a lot more comfortable, but the emperor's body is still not as good as day by day, and in the end, he is sick in bed, and all the affairs of the court and China are handed over to Jiang Liejun to take care of. At the same time, because of the secret operation of the Three Holy Sects, many ministers of the Second Prince's forces were attacked, and many ministers of the Second Prince's forces also defected. The power of the second prince in the court was weakened day by day, and he gradually lost the ability to confront the crown prince. Fortunately, the Three Holy Sects have not yet penetrated into the government and the opposition, so there is still nothing to do between the Shenwei Army and the Three Holy Sects.
"What should I do?" The second prince and his henchmen discussed what to do next.
"If we can't find a strong backer who can match the Three Holy Sects, it will be difficult for us to turn over under the suppression of the Three Holy Sects."
"Where to look?"
"The Hidden Demon."
"The Hidden Demons are all otherworldly beings, how can they support this king for no reason?"
"As long as His Highness can come up with enough chips."
"What chips?"
The second prince discussed to find a backer, and on the prince's side, the Three Holy Sects had already begun to make some small moves behind the prince's back.
"Jiang Liejun, this old guy is in charge of the government, and we have no way to arrange our people in."
"The methods practiced by the disciples of our Three Holy Sects are all secret methods unique to the Three Holy Sects, and they can be known by just exploring them. I think we can select a group of people from those small sects, cultivate them well, and let them be my pawns and do things for us. ”
"Good idea."
The secret battle between the two forces gradually turned into an open dispute, and the second prince didn't know what method he used to invite the hidden demon Skyscraper Giant Spider King, and learned the skyscraper secret method of the Skyscraper Giant Spider clan, and his strength went to the next level. Moreover, the Sky Giant Spider is a hidden demon at the level of the Immortal Emperor, and its power is enough to rival the three sect masters of the Three Holy Sects.
Jiang Liejun, before he came out of the customs, he was the strength of the Immortal Venerable, and at that time he was already the first person in the Wind and Thunder Empire, and his strength was on par with the sect master of the Three Holy Sects. After leaving the customs, although his strength did not reach the level of the Immortal Sect, it was still very different from the Immortal Sect.
"What method did the second child use to invite the Sky Giant Spider King?" In Jiang Liejun's mansion, Tianyang Feng and his brothers and sisters were discussing.
"The secret method cultivated by the Sky Giant Spider Clan requires the consumption of essence qi, and the best way to replenish essence qi is to refine living people." Tidal Cloud Road. Of course, these are also what Yuyan told him.
"What!" Everyone was shocked.
"Could it be that the second child sacrificed the people of our Wind Thunder Empire to the Sky Giant Spider King!"
"It's the only possibility." Xiyun said, "The Sky Giant Spider King has reached the level of Immortal Emperor, and if he breaks through again, he can become a god." Therefore, the amount of essence it needs this time is also an extremely large astronomical amount, and I conservatively estimate that it needs at least 10 million people's essence. ”
"Ten million! My Wind Thunder Empire only has a population of 20 million! Tianyang Feng said angrily.
"Therefore, we must stop the Second Princes and eliminate the hidden dangers of the Three Holy Sects." Tidal Cloud Road.
"Little junior brother, what do you think?" Jade Chengcheng asked.
"I still have to discuss this matter with my father-in-law......"
Xiyun found Jiang Liejun and talked to him about his thoughts.
"Are you going to support the Great Prince?"
"It's just that in the name of the Great Prince, let's crusade against the Sky Giant Spider King and the Three Holy Sects become justified, and after eliminating these two hidden dangers, the rest of the matter will not be our problem."
"What can you do to solve these two problems?"
"Although the Sky Giant Spider King is a generation of demon kings, the powerful existence of the Immortal Emperor Realm is not invincible, as far as I know, there is a Jiaolong Demon King, although it is a great demon at the level of the Immortal Emperor like the Sky Giant Spider King, but the bloodline of the dragon species makes the Dragon Demon King more dangerous than the Sky Giant Spider." Xiyun released his power and summoned the artifact dragon sword, "Father take this divine sword and a few senior brothers and sisters to go, and Yuyan will take you to find the Jiaolong Demon King." Xiyun handed the dragon sword to Jiang Liejun, and then summoned Yuyan out, and Yuyan gently saluted Jiang Liejun.
"Fairy." Jiang Liejun returned the salute.
"The Three Holy Sects have me over there, so my righteous father doesn't have to worry."
"How can you deal with the Three Holy Sects at the same time with your own strength?"
"With this." Xiyun raised his hand and summoned ten orbs, including two red ones, two blue ones, two white ones, two green ones, and two golden ones.
"What is this?"
"Loaded with mecha puppet beast parts and orbs that provide a source of power for mecha puppet beasts, each mecha puppet beast has the strength of an immortal general, and the integration of the five elements can directly approach the powerhouse of the immortal sect."
"It seems that it is time to clean up the forces of all sides."
