Chapter 226: Protector Pillar
After the door of the underworld disappeared, what appeared in front of Han Bing's eyes was a luxurious palace.
The word "resplendent of gold" alone is not enough to describe the palace's unrivalled grandeur and dazzling brilliance, and the number of treasures is even more dazzling. The pieces of black jade that are as bright as a mirror used to pave the ground are each of a rare and priceless treasure in the world.
Of course, these so-called things outside the body are impossible to impress the profound cultivation of Master Huinian in the slightest, and Han Bing is not interested in them at all. At this time, there was only one thing in his heartβthe legendary Protector Pillar.
When he followed Master Hui Nian and bypassed a beautifully carved green jade screen, he finally got his wish and saw the pillar of the protector of the country that he had been waiting for for a long time.
It was a transparent square white jade pillar, no more than three zhang high, about two people surrounded by thickness.
If you look closely, you can find that in addition to the obvious gap between the bottom two sections, the parts above the two sections are actually integrated, as if they were made of a huge piece of jade.
Master Hui Nian first put his palms together and stood in front of this pillar of the protector god and recited a scripture silently, and then he gestured to Han Bing and placed the clay pot in his hand on the black jade ground in front of the pillar of the protector god, standing side by side with the other clay pot that had been placed there before.
After placing the crockpot, Han Bing also folded his palms, bowed and bowed, and then retreated.
At this time, Master Hui Nian had already sat down cross-legged, and Han Bing knew that he must have something to say to himself, so he also sat down cross-legged opposite him.
"Before the family teacher sat down, he asked Senior Brother Huijue and Lao Wei to jointly protect this pillar of national protection. Now that the senior brother has passed away, the old man is clumsy, and it may be difficult to take on this heavy responsibility alone. Since the donor is the third generation of the Qiankey, he also shoulders the responsibility of guarding the Divine Pillar. Therefore, Lao Wei told the donor the ins and outs of this divine pillar today. β
Han Bing nodded solemnly and said, "The disciple is willing to listen to the master's teachings." β
"This pillar of the protector of the country seems to be just made of ordinary white jade, but in fact, it has been infused with the essence of the family teacher. Therefore, if you look closely, you will find that in the transparent pillar, there is a faint crystal flow in the middle. β
Han Bing hurriedly stared at the Divine Pillar not far away. Sure enough, there was a faint glow emitting from the seemingly transparent pillar, and there seemed to be another mist surging in it.
"The aura you see now is a little weaker than it was more than it was more than it was thirty years ago. It was because a part of the essence had been combined with the blood of Emperor Taizu to produce divine power, sinking the bottom pillar body into the ground. β
Han Bing suddenly realized, "No wonder I heard Master Huijue say that there are three pillars that need to be sunk into the ground as the cornerstone of the Divine Pillar." Now only two sections were visible, and the bottom section had sunk into the ground. β
After a pause, Han Bing continued to ask, "Master Huijue also told me that there is a big secret hidden on this Protector Pillar, which is enough to threaten the throne of the current emperor. I wonder what that secret is?"
Master Hui Nian sighed when he heard this, and said, "I don't know what that secret is, but I think it should be related to Yongwang Haoxing Xiaoyin. Did you know that King Yong was here too?"
Han Bing couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, "Your Royal Highness the Yongwang, doesn't it mean that except for those who hold the Qiankun Key, only His Majesty the Emperor has the right to enter this underworld?"
"Yes, this is one of the rules that bind the holder of the Qiankun key. But there is one exception, that is, the people brought by the emperor can also enter the underworld with him. β
"So, His Royal Highness King Yongwang actually came with Emperor Xiantaizu?"
Master Hui Nian nodded.
Han Bing suddenly stood up excitedly, walked quickly to the pillar of the protector god, looked down at the bottom of the pillar, but found that there were only some strange patterns carved on it, and nothing else.
He looked at the sides of the column separately, and it was just some strange patterns.
So, he went around to the back of the pillar.
Sure enough, on the bottom pillar, he saw four big characters in bright red - Haoxing Xiaoyin!
Subsequently, under the name of Haoxing Xiaoyin, he saw another name - Haoxing Xiaoqi.
After staring at the two names in astonishment for a long time, he finally saw the strangeness in them.
The four words "Haoxing Xiaoyin" are written in the center of the whole column, and the bright red handwriting is strong and free, and it seems to have penetrated into the jade pillar, if the column body is not damaged, I am afraid it can no longer be erased.
The four words "Haoxing Xiaoqi" written below it, although the color is also bright red, infiltrated into the body of the column, but judging from the time, these four words are obviously written after the four words "Haoxing Xiaoyin".
The reason is that the four words "Haoxing Xiaoyin" occupy most of the position of the column, and the remaining blank space is limited. Therefore, when writing the four characters "Haoxing Xiaoqi", the font had to be much smaller than the former.
Seeing Han Bing, who was surprised and inexplicable, sat back across from him, Master Huinian smiled slightly and said, "Amitabha, what the donor doesn't understand, is it why his two names can be retained?"
"Yes! It can be inferred from this that Emperor Taizu was determined to make His Royal Highness King Yong the prince, so he brought him here and let His Royal Highness King Yongwang leave his name on the Divine Pillar with blood. But how could the name of Haoxing Xiaoqi also remain? Could it be that the second generation of the emperor of Dayu turned out to be two people?"
In the twenty-fourth year of Yongding, the master of the family regretted that the master passed away. Emperor Taizu came to worship in the temple, and he came with Yongwang Haoxing Xiaoyin.
Emperor Taizu brought King Yong here and ordered him to write his name on the pillar. King Yong bit his index finger and wrote his name.
When Emperor Taizu saw that King Yong's name was actually left on the Divine Pillar, his expression was extremely complicated, and he remained silent and did not speak.
At this moment, the pillar with the name of Emperor Taizu in the next section suddenly slowly sank to the ground, and finally completely submerged into the ground.
Seeing this magical scene, everyone present at the time couldn't help but be stunned. And Emperor Taizu was shocked, but he actually laughed out loud and said, 'Heaven's will is like this! How can I go against Heaven's will!' Haoxing Xiaoyin is destined to be my future prince of great wealth!'"
Hearing this, Han Bing couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly, and said coldly: "I understand! This Dayu's second-generation emperor should indeed be two people.
Emperor Taizu died in the twenty-fifth year of Yongding, and in the edict he left at that time, he was supposed to pass on the throne to His Royal Highness Yongwang, but it was tampered with as the emperor's eldest son, Haoxing Xiaoqi.
However, in any case, at the moment of the death of the first ancestor, His Royal Highness King Yongwang has actually become the emperor of Dayu. That's why his name was left on the pillar of the gods, as the second generation of Dayu's emperor.
And after His Royal Highness Yongwang was killed and died, Haoxing Xiaoqi ascended the throne, and only then did he come here again and leave his name on the Divine Pillar. At that time, he was already the emperor of Dayu, so his name could naturally be retained. β
"Amitabha, sin! sin! tampering with the edict of the previous emperor, the old man really does not know. But the emperor did come here after ascending the throne and left his name on the sacred pillar. β
Although Master Huinian's face was still unwavering, there was still a hint of sigh in his voice.
"Your Majesty, he naturally also saw the name of His Royal Highness King Yongwang on the Divine Pillar, and he must have understood what was going on.
If he had not tampered with the edict, and King Yong had never become the emperor of Dayu, then the prophecy of this pillar was false. How could the emperor still believe in the Divine Pillar and leave his name on it?
Therefore, the two names on this divine pillar are the evidence that the emperor tampered with the edict of the previous emperor!"
Hearing Han Bing say this, Master Huinian suddenly became stunned.
Yes, I never thought of the connection! Presumably Senior Brother Huijue had already thought of it, so he passed the key to Han Bing, just to prevent it from finally falling into the hands of the emperor, so that this suffocating truth would be buried in the ground.
At this time, Han Bing suddenly snorted disdainfully and said, "Presumably, this is also the reason why the emperor has been reluctant to establish a prince for a long time! He is afraid that the future prince will come here and see this shocking truth!"
Master Hui Nian suddenly recalled: "The old man remembers that sixteen years ago, not long after the rebellion of King Huai was put down, the emperor had come here alone. He stayed alone by the pillar for a long time, and finally left without saying a word and with a calm face. Could it beβ"
Han Bing raised his eyebrows and sneered: "He should have brought the blood of King Ji and tried it on the Divine Pillar." If King Ji is really the third emperor of Dayu, then his blood will remain on the Divine Pillar. At the same time, the pillar with the names of His Royal Highness and the Emperor will automatically sink into the ground.
In that case, the world will never know the secret of his tampering with the edict!
Unfortunately, it backfired, and King Ji's blood was not left by the Divine Pillar, proving that he could not become the next Lord of Great Wealth.
The emperor must have been extremely annoyed and disappointed at that time! No wonder after that, he not only alienated the Yan family, but also began to suppress King Ji. β
"Today's crown prince Haoxing Mingyong is not yet an adult, and he can't take his blood to the god pillar for the time being. Master Hui Nian frowned and sighed, "I just don't know what the result will be when the time comesββ"
Han Bing shook his head indifferently, "Dayu is afraid that he won't be able to survive the day when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince becomes an adult!"
"Amitabha, what the donor said is true. The emperor is so perverse, this rich country will be cut off in his hands sooner or later!"
