398 Millennium Spectacle 1
The day of opening the royal secret room has finally arrived, and the third prince is sitting on the watch seat in a depressed spirit, thinking that the fifth prince and the eldest prince are in good spirits. The fifth prince took the pill, and the eldest prince never blessed any woman at all, but just talked to Xiao Ju every night. This made the other four girls very jealous, but Xiao Ju never mentioned that the eldest prince was no longer a stupid person. After two days of observation, the eldest prince has given up on the four girls, and he only needs Xiaoju as a concubine in this life. Today, the eldest prince still looks stupid, which makes the people who are watching for a while. But no one came out to speak.
The fifteen girls were divided into three groups, each representing a prince. The emperor and the queen and several elders of the Great Clan Association sat at the front of the viewing seat, and behind them were the ministers in the court, both to witness the referee and to watch the excitement. Compared to the fifteen girls who participated in the opening of the secret room, the formation was quite spectacular, and many people came to witness the grand opening of the secret room for the first time. People were standing and sitting, all in the not very spacious back courtyard of the palace.
"Father and Queen Mother, is it necessary for the eldest brother to send a concubine to participate in the opening of the secret room. Seeing that no one spoke, the third prince finally couldn't help but speak.
"The third emperor, since they also pointed out the concubines to the eldest prince, they are eligible to participate in the opening of the secret room. The emperor said lightly.
"Father, although it is our concubine who opens the secret room, it is a man who will be in charge of the royal family in the future. Big brother, can he?"
"Third Emperor, the royal family is also a big family, if the eldest prince's concubine can open the secret room, then she will also have the ability to assist the eldest prince to be the head of the family. The queen also said calmly.
"Sister Queen, this is a big joke, even if the royal family is a big family, it is not a stupid person who can be in charge. Concubine Zhen couldn't help but say.
"Sister Zhenfei, you have already escaped into Buddhism, so don't get involved in royal affairs. Although the eldest prince is stupid, can't he be cured?"
"Sister Queen, it's been more than 20 years, if you can be cured, will you have to wait until today? Although I am a Buddhist cultivator, the third prince is still my son, and in the future, the mother will be more precious than the son, and now I am not a matter of course to help my son. Concubine Zhen said aggressively.
"Concubine Zhen, you can help the third child, but the eldest prince is still young, and there is still hope for a cure in the future. You also have no right to deprive his concubine of the opportunity to open the Chamber of Secrets. The emperor said with a displeased expression as he helped his son.
"Your Majesty, how can the eldest prince still be healed, his soul is all free from his body. There's no going back. Concubine Zhen insisted, she didn't dare to take risks, who knows if those girls hid their strength during the competition.
"Concubine Zhen, how do you know that the eldest prince is out of his body and not born stupid, is it that you were the one who harmed my son in the first place. The queen said with a sudden change of face.
"Sister Queen, this is common sense. What evidence do you have for saying that I did the harm? If not, don't talk about it. ”
"Okay, today is the opening day of the secret room, let the rest go. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, but this matter must be investigated by the palace, no matter who harms my son, the palace cannot let her go. The queen looked at Concubine Zhen hatefully.
"Sister Queen, sister will wait and see. Concubine Zhen replied very arrogantly, she didn't worry, it was a spell that didn't completely belong to this continent, and she didn't believe that anyone could get the lost soul back. The vicissitudes of time, how can the soul that has left the body still guard the original body.
It's time to prepare to open the secret room, or draw lots to determine the order of priority, maybe it's providence, Xiaoju drew the first appearance on behalf of the eldest prince, and Ling Chen represented the third prince for the second appearance, Ling Xi didn't need to draw lots, and the five women of the five princes were the last group.
Fifteen women were brought to the front of the chamber, which was a cliff. It was like it had fallen from the sky. It is not particularly square, and the surrounding area of the cliff is already reborn with artemisia grass, which looks like a rockery, standing at the back of the palace. If no one is pointing you out, many people don't know that it is the door to the royal vault.
"Only one floor of this gate has been opened in a hundred years, and only the queen who opened it knows how to do it. Only the emperor and the queen can enter the secret room every year. Every time the concubine who participates in the opening of the secret room has to release the spell fifty steps away, if there is an echo from the door, it proves that the woman is qualified to continue, otherwise she will be eliminated directly. Each of the five concubines is a group, which can be opened separately or in conjunction with each other.
If no one opens the door of the secret room this time, then it is up to the emperor to decide which prince to open the Zen throne with, and the queen inherits the method of opening, and all the princesses have the opportunity to enter the secret room and bring out a treasure. Now let the five concubines of the eldest prince open the secret room. The Grand Elder of the Royal Family, who presided over the opening of the secret room, announced majestically.
Xiao Ju was the first to come to the secret room fifty paces away to cast a spell. I saw a piece of water vapor rolling straight towards the mountain cliff, and the momentum shook my heart. A huge current of water washed over the artemisia grass on the rock face. After a while, the water vapor dissipated, and the cliff was still a cliff, and there was no sound at all. Xiao Ju returned to the eldest prince in frustration.
"Husband, Ju'er is incompetent, and she has done her best with her spiritual power. Xiao Ju looked at the eldest prince and said apologetically.
"Cut, what's sorry about with a fool. Shui Hong said disdainfully, and the eldest prince looked at her coldly. That look made Shui Hong's heart palpitate for a while,
"Ju'er, it's okay. It's your ability to open the secret room, and it's providence if you can't open it. Sit down next to the prince. The eldest prince said with a smile, which made the people next to him stunned, is this what a stupid person can say. I didn't have time to explore, and another girl went up.
The other four women, who were also the eldest prince, released wood, fire, and earth spells respectively, and the cliff was still the same without a sound.
"The five concubines of the eldest prince are eliminated. "A copy of the Grand Elder of the Royal Family is an announcement of this result.
The five concubines on the Three Princes' Mansion are on the scene, and Ling Chen is the last, and the first four women are the same as the concubines of the eldest prince. Finally, it was early morning, and she confidently stood on the line of fifty steps, and took a deep breath and released several spells in an instant. The artemisia grass on the cliff fell one after another, as if it was cutting hair, and the front of the cliff became bare for a while.
"Chen'er, good, hold on for a while, and the door will have an echo. The third prince suddenly came and shouted, and the gesture of Concubine Zhen beside him changed slightly under the table, and a spiritual power rushed to the early morning invisibly. Ling Xi had expected these for a long time, and she also moved her five fingers slightly, and a transparent enchantment isolated Concubine Zhen's spiritual power, and the spiritual power was dispersed along the enchantment to the viewing seat, and many people were tricked.
"What's the situation, how can there be spiritual power fluctuations?"
"Yes, although cooperation is allowed, it is also something that needs to be reported in advance. ”
"This is not ordinary spiritual power, it can't be released without ten or twenty years of cultivation. It wasn't the girls who failed just now. ”
"Great Elder, someone is secretly helping with spiritual power, this is cheating. Her opening this time should also be eliminated. ”
......
Many people at the watch table protested one after another, and some people looked at Concubine Zhen and the third prince. And the early morning in front of him did not receive follow-up spiritual power replenishment. The power of the spell gradually weakened.
"Poof!" a not-so-loud noise came from the cliff, sounding like a fart from a big, big beast. And Ling Chen also fell to the ground with exhausted spiritual power, and his face instantly aged a little.
The eldest prince and Xiao Ju, who were sitting behind the emperor and queen and in front of the three princes, silently put away the spiritual power that was released. Qing'er and Su Xin, who followed Ling Xi into the palace, stood a little farther away and smiled at each other. It's really the all-out conspiracies and calculations in the front.
Seeing that Ling Chen fell, the third prince and Concubine Zhen were puzzled, the spiritual power had been released to her for follow-up replenishment, how could there be a situation of depletion. Concubine Zhen's spiritual power was scattered a little, which was expected by her, and she couldn't do it herself. I have already rehearsed with Ling Chen in the Three Kings' Mansion, how can it be like I haven't received it.
"Stupid, stupid, useless. The third prince scolded in a low voice.
Ling Chen was weak and couldn't stand up, but her mind was sober, and she felt that she had been deceived by the mother and son of the third prince. What follow-up spiritual power is replenished, what is going all out at the beginning, he is a fool, and he will believe the mother and son.
"There's an echo in the chamber, I can't be eliminated. Ling Chen struggled to get up, and said in a trembling voice.
"The third princess, it was the pain of the grass and trees being scraped off*, and it was not an echo of the door of the secret room at all. The presiding Great Elder said helplessly.
"Nonsense, plants and trees are not alive, how can they know about pain. Ling Chen argued.
"In the early hours of the morning, everything in the world is a creature of nine days. Spells acting on plants and trees are harming their skin, this is the most obvious truth, didn't your father and mother teach you? The emperor and queen and Concubine Zhen, as well as the old ministers behind you, this is not the first time you have witnessed the secret room, but just now it is the correct echo of the door of the secret room?"
"No!" said some of them in a ragged voice.
"Even if it's not, Ling Chen is eligible to enter the secret room after someone else opens it, and if no one can open it, then Ling Chen is the winner. Concubine Zhen argued with insufficient confidence.
"Concubine Zhen, I don't have to be reasonable. In the early hours of the morning, elimination. It's your woman's turn for the fifth prince. The presiding Grand Elder unceremoniously announced.
"The Emperor and Empress, the Great Elder, the five of us sisters want to cooperate with each other to open the royal secret room, and we have to report it. Ling Xi stood at the front of the five girls and looked at everyone and said.
"Ling Xi, this is allowed by the rules of the royal family, but no one has ever done this, Fifth Prince, you have also thought about it, so that you will only have one chance to open the secret room, the ratio of one and five times. The presiding elder kindly reminded.
"Great Elder, five useless efforts are better than one full fight. This prince has no objection. The fifth prince said confidently.
"Ling Xi, if you can open the secret room, that is the future queen, the five of you have discussed it properly. The royal family has not disputed this position for thousands of years. ”
"Great Elder, this is our housework. If we want to prosper, the first thing is to unite as one, and the five girls are all for their husbands, and the so-called prosperity and loss are both losses. If you can't work together to help your own man, how can the family prosper. Although we only have one chance, we also need the five of us to open the royal secret room together. ”
"Well said!" the emperor took the lead in applauding.
