Chapter 312 Dou Changsheng's Happy Days
East Pavilion.
Smoke rises from the incense burner.
Wisps of spiritual energy roll continuously, like a fairyland.
The emperor holds a Taoist book in his hand, flipping through it casually, and finally speaks: "On the second day of the second month, the battle of Luojing."
"Prince Qian plans to watch, what about you, Prince?"
Listening to the emperor's question, the prince slowly raised his head and looked at the emperor who was reading with his eyes downcast. He knew that all this was a cover-up, and the other party's real attention was on him.
This trip to Luojing was simply impossible to refuse.
Prince Qian was unruly and had long aroused the emperor's disgust, but the emperor did not choose to come forward himself, but first made his mother the queen, which was to elevate himself and let himself deal with Prince Qian.
There was no choice.
The position of the prince has never been abolished since ancient times, and no one has ever had a good end.
The prince said in a deep voice: "My brother has gone, so I naturally plan to go too."
"My brother and I have many misunderstandings. This time I went to Luojing to watch the war, and it was just the right opportunity to ease the relationship."
The emperor slowly put down the Taoist book in his hand, and said with relief: "King Qian has been a little too much recently, but you have to understand."
"You were born in the royal family, enjoying wealth, fine clothes and delicious food, and nothing is lacking."
"But King Qian is different. He grew up in Wang Dou Manor since he was a child. He was not well fed, not warmly dressed, and lived a very hard life."
"That's why he is so aggressive now. You should bear more now. I believe that everything will be restored after a while."
The prince felt sick in his heart. The emperor in front of him was still hypocritical. He had been pretending for so many years, but he still didn't pretend enough and planned to continue pretending.
The prince was also angry in his heart. It was because the emperor was too pretentious that they were restrained and were calculated by Dou Changsheng one after another, allowing his conspiracy to succeed.
If the emperor really started to fight, regardless of everything, he would have killed Dou Changsheng long ago.
The prince cut off his beautiful fantasy and sighed in his heart.
That kind of beautiful future, the emperor was backfired afterwards, stepped down directly, and he succeeded to the throne, was destined to be only in his mind.
After a brief silence, the emperor spoke again: "This is the Eastern Capital Luojing."
"The mountains are high and the water is dangerous, and the road is difficult to travel."
"You are the prince, the heir to a country."
"The last time I left the imperial capital, I was almost assassinated. This time, you must be careful."
The emperor showed a thoughtful look, and after thinking for a while, he said: "After all, you are my most valued heir, and you must not get into trouble."
"The Luojing seal will be temporarily handed over to you."
"Mastering this thing, you can control Luojing, control the formation, and command the garrison."
"With the power of Eastern Capital Luojing, even if Luojing rebels, it can be suppressed."
This time, no eunuch came forward, but the emperor personally stood up and carefully took out an object.
This is a bronze tripod about the size of a palm, with three legs and two ears.
On the bronze tripod, there are nine dragons entwined, their dragon bodies are winding, and finally the dragon heads are facing up, roaring to the sky, arrogant.
The Luojing Seal is not square like the jade seal, it is just a name, the real name is the Nine Dragon Tripod.
This is a symbol of imperial power.
It represents power and status.
To put it more simply, this is everything.
As long as you have it, you can get anything.
The emperor was hesitant, and it was obvious that he was very reluctant to give it up, and he didn't want to hand it over at all.
The prince's eyes were fiery, and the burning eyes were like substance, as if they could melt the Nine Dragon Tripod. Seeing the emperor's slow movements, he had not handed over the Nine Dragon Tripod. The prince subconsciously raised his hand and finally grabbed the Nine Dragon Tripod.
This movement was as fast as thunder, but the Nine Dragon Tripod was as unshakable as a mountain.
The prince was not strong enough to take the Nine Dragon Cauldron from the emperor. Seeing that the emperor refused to let go, the prince urged: "Father!"
After hearing the prince's voice, the emperor finally reacted and reluctantly let go.
Feeling the cold touch in his hand disappear, the emperor quickly added: "Go early and come back early."
Although the rest of the words were not spoken, the prince could hear that he would return the Nine Dragon Cauldron early.
But the prince ignored the emperor. This sentence was just a wind around his ears. After getting this thing, it would never be returned easily.
This Nine Dragon Cauldron is not just a symbol, it is Luojing.
The five capitals in the world have a long heritage and their ages cannot be verified.
In the past, there were immortals. After experiencing the struggle among the immortals, they still stand tall. This is the treasure.
And the Nine Dragon Cauldron in his hand is the thing that controls Luojing.
The Nine Dragon Cauldron cannot be called an immortal weapon, it is just a semi-immortal weapon, but after having this thing in Luojing, its power is no less than that of an immortal weapon.
With this item in hand, you can have a land within a country.
A series of words emerged in the prince's mind. Even if the immortal weapons of the seventeen authentic sects came to attack, they would not be rejected. One or two of them could easily block them. Therefore, as long as they formed alliances and obtained the support of several of the seventeen authentic sects, they would be able to stand firm.
The five seals of the emperor are the symbol of imperial power and the foundation of the unified dynasty.
The imperial seal representing the imperial capital has always been in the hands of Taizu. Now, the ones stamped on the imperial edicts are all fake objects created by projection. Of course, they also have the real power of the imperial seal, but this is a symbol of power, and Taizu has never handed it over to outsiders.
Moreover, the first of the five seals of the imperial seal is not an ordinary object, but an immortal weapon.
The prince is the crown prince and knows the secrets of the dynasty.
The power of the immortals in the world is not as simple as it seems to outsiders.
It is just the will of heaven, the dynasty, and the earth veins.
There are also the people of the world and the five capitals in the world.
The imperial seal is an immortal weapon, which is the effort of the dynasties of the past. The Nine Dragon Cauldron of Luojing, the eastern capital, is also the direction of the future. When the things that control the five capitals are all immortal weapons.
Then you can really absorb the power of the five capitals, and the immortals in the world will be more powerful.
The road to increasing life span is closely related to the national destiny, which is too difficult.
It is better to continue to be strong. Although this move is extreme, when one day you can sweep away the immortals, it can be regarded as walking through this road.
The emperor looked at the prince who was in a daze, and at this moment he felt a little regretful. This treasure was handed over to the prince in order to kill Dou Changsheng and ensure that it was foolproof. I don’t know if it was wrong.
This prince doesn’t look like a good person.
The emperor exhaled a breath of foul air, and then spoke: "When you go to Luojing, you must act carefully. Don't think that you can do whatever you want with the Nine Dragon Cauldron in your hand."
"After all, the Nine Dragon Cauldron is just an external object, and Luojing is powerful."
"Such items have been passed down from generation to generation. They are just the product of our exploration of Luojing and mastering various ancient buildings in Luojing, thus usurping Luojing's authority."
"Don't think that the Nine Dragon Cauldron is omnipotent. The ten great families in Luojing have been entrenched in Luojing for too long. They must have influence on Luojing."
"They must have mastered some power, which will affect the performance of the Nine Dragon Cauldron."
"After you go to Luojing, complete the task first. If it is completed successfully, the ten great families in Luojing will be cleaned up."
"The situation in the world is not good now. These families cannot be kept. There must be no accidents in the control of the five capitals."
The prince came back to his senses, frowned slightly, and asked in a deep voice: "Has the situation reached this point?"
"Is this what we have to do at the end of the dynasty?"
The five capitals of the world are too important.
Occupying such a prominent place, it is easy to prosper, but it is also easy to fail.
When the world is in chaos, the five capitals will bear the brunt.
The strength of the court depends on the control of the five capitals.
Losing one is like cutting off one's own arm. Losing two means losing half of the country. The situation is deteriorating, and people's minds have changed.
The emperor shook his head and said, "The situation has not reached this point, but this is a rare opportunity."
"If it were normal, none of the ten great families would be easy to move."
"But they are secondary. You know what the main thing is, my son."
The prince's wide sleeves fell down, his palms tightly grasped the Nine Dragon Tripod, and he said bluntly, "Your Majesty, please call me the prince."
The emperor waved his hand and drove people away directly, saying, "Go down and prepare."
At the same time, a voice filled with endless hatred sounded, "This must be done."
Concubine Xiao deserves death!
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
A creak.
The door was pushed open.
Dou Changsheng stretched his waist lazily.
Then he said to Wu Junyi outside the door: "Go and get the second brother."
"No, call the third brother."
Wu Junyi hesitated, raised his head slightly and gestured, as if to say that Concubine Xiao was in the room, which was not good, right?
Dou Changsheng didn't say anything, turned around and walked back to the bed, then sat on it with a big horse and a golden sword, stretched out his hand and patted the snow-white thigh above, saying: "This time, you two sisters will go with me."
"Take the third brother with you."
Concubine Xiao said nothing, as if she had accepted her fate.
Xiao Yuanxiang, with her hair scattered on the side, said calmly: "Can Concubine Xiao leave the imperial capital easily?"
"Will that emperor allow it?"
Dou Changsheng said indifferently: "He is the supreme in the palace, but he is not once he leaves the palace."
"Now the Eastern Capital Luojing is the main thing, and the others are minor details, otherwise the third prince would not be released easily."
Sneering, Dou Changsheng continued: "He hates me to death."
"He hates Concubine Xiao to death too. I will take Concubine Xiao with me, and then we will all die. This is exactly what he wants."
Footsteps sounded, and the third prince had already walked into the room. Looking at this scene, his eyes were bloodshot, and his eyes seemed to be spewing flames. He rushed up directly and roared: "Dou Changsheng."
"I will kill you."
The third prince rushed very fast, but flew back faster.
He was just a celestial realm. Although he was in the same realm as Dou, the third prince's strength was also powerful, comparable to the seventeenth authentic descendant, but he was not Xiao Yuanxiang's opponent.
Dou Changsheng glanced at Xiao Yuanxiang. The other party attacked to protect the third prince.
Dou Changsheng saw clearly that he was afraid that he would attack with hatred and directly take the life of the third prince.
Dou Changsheng looked at the third prince who climbed up from the bluestone ground outside. The other party rushed up again with a roar. It was obvious that this scene was too shocking for the third prince to accept.
But this time he was not lucky. Wu Junyi held him down directly. His head touched the cold stone slab. Even so, the third prince still stubbornly raised his head. His mouth was covered and he made a humming sound.
Dou Changsheng looked at the third prince who could not accept it for a while, sighed, and then slowly said: "Don't have this attitude, we are a family now."
"Now the emperor hates me and Xiao Fei. You can't escape this hatred."
"He hates you to death too."
"He must be the first person in the world who wants you dead."
"But it's different for me. Our interests are aligned now."
"If you want to live a good life and be rich in the future, you have to count on me."
"Take him down and let him calm down. I believe the third prince will figure it out in the end."
"Whatever the emperor cannot give him, I can give him."
"These vast mountains and rivers are destined to be his."
Wu Junyi took the third prince and left. Concubine Xiao, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke: "Is this true?"
Dou Changsheng looked at Concubine Xiao, stretched out his hand and pointed to Xiao Yuanxiang beside him and said: "She is now my wife, and the Lanling Xiao family and I are already a family."
"I am determined to become an immortal and don't care about power, so the person who will be entrusted to Da Qian in the future must be the third child who has the blood of the Lanling Xiao family."
"After all, others will liquidate after taking office, but the third child will definitely not liquidate the Lanling Xiao family."
Concubine Xiao looked at Dou Changsheng's expression, and there was no trace of falsehood in these words. They were all Dou Changsheng's words from the bottom of his heart.
But Concubine Xiao was suspicious, thinking that the other party was trying to stabilize her and win over the Lanling Xiao family.
Dou Changsheng was sincere and had no intention of having a son to become the emperor.
This throne is really too hot for me.
By the time he had the ability to help his son ascend to the throne, he would have become an immortal, otherwise he would definitely not be able to do so.
Now that he has become an immortal, what does this emperor mean?
After all, he is not the emperor's son. If he ascends the throne, the country will be destroyed.
The emperor can endure it now, but when that day comes, the emperor will definitely expose all this, and Emperor Taizu will intervene.
Being an emperor is a dead end, but Lao San can do it. The emperor cannot accept it, but Taizu can accept it.
Xiao Wangzhi and the others kept leading them towards a dead end, but Dou Changsheng had already begun to prepare a retreat.
This is not a retreat, just a means of delaying time.
Don't give the Daqian clan a chance to go crazy.
As long as you give yourself time, you will become an immortal.
The time traveler is the self-confidence of confusion.
Regardless of whether Concubine Xiao believed it or not, Dou closed the door directly with his hand, then lay down directly, hugged the two of them and continued to sleep.
After so many years of hard life, I still can't be carefree and unrestrained.
The laughing monk watched the third prince being tied up and then still in the woodshed like a maggot.
Watching this scene calmly, the laughing monk sighed in his heart.
Let Concubine Xiao leave the palace.
It turned out that Dou Changsheng was not being arrogant and unruly, but was just trying to force the emperor.
How could the emperor let Dou Changsheng go after suffering such a shame and humiliation? He would definitely urge the prince to go to Luojing to kill Dou Changsheng.
The prince had no room to refuse, and this time the killing was successful.
Luo Jing is dangerous, so we have to find a way not to go.
