How I Became the Emperor - Chapter 592

[592. Chapter 592: Confrontation between the king and his ministers in prison]

is over.

What should I do if I speak ill of the emperor behind his back and the emperor hears me on the spot?

Lu Qian’s heart skipped a beat, his whole body trembled, his eyes blinked, and he suddenly woke up and bowed his hands: “Wei Chen, thank you for your life-saving grace! Just now, Wei Chen was possessed by the evil spirit in prison, and he spoke indiscriminately. , If Your Majesty had not arrived in time, I am afraid that Wei Chen would not have escaped! Your Majesty saved Wei Chen’s life again!”

The white-bearded old man: “…”

The square-faced man: “…”

The middle-aged scribe: “… …”

This is the first time they have seen such a shameless person.

Then, the three of them bowed together and saluted Zhao Xuanji: “The guilty minister pays homage to Your Majesty.”

“Excuse me.”

Zhao Xuanji walked outside the cell door, waved slightly, and his majestic eyes fell on Lu Qian: “Lu Qian “Qian, you rebelled first and then slandered me, which is a heinous crime! But I think you have made many contributions. You can choose a way to die. Should you be quartered on five horses or beheaded?”

“This…”

Lu Qian said with a face. He froze and asked tentatively: “Your Majesty, can Wei Chen choose another more comfortable way to die?”

Zhao Xuanji said: “Say.”

Lu Gan showed a friendly rather than embarrassing smile: “Wei Chen chooses to die of old age.

” As soon as the words came out, the three people next to him immediately cast strange looks.

This man dared to tease His Majesty. Was he afraid that he would not die quickly enough?

“Huh?”

Zhao Xuanji raised his eyebrows and his expression darkened: “Come here, pull Lu Gan, the traitor who is so treacherous and deceiving the emperor, out of the Meridian Gate and behead him in public!”

⊙▃⊙

Lu Gan was stunned on the spot.

It’s off this time!

“Yes!”

At this time, Tantai Palace beside Zhao Xuanji responded, opened the cell door, and walked in: “You three, you can be released from prison. His Majesty pardons your innocence, and you will be reinstated tomorrow.”

Bai The three old men with beards were stunned when they heard this, and then they all raised their hands: “Weak minister, thank you for your grace!”

After the others left, only Lu Qian and Zhao Xuanji were left in the cell.

Zhao Xuanji walked like a tiger, raised his hand, and the light and shadow in the space around the cell were chaotic, distorted as if the light was refracted by water, apparently isolating the space.

“Sit down.”

Zhao Xuanji sat casually on the bench.

“Thank you, Your Majesty.”

Lu Qiangong cupped his hands and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He sat down, put a new jade cup on Zhao Xuanji, and poured half a glass of wine.

Zhao Xuanji raised his glass and drank it in one gulp, and asked casually: “How does it feel to be in the prison?”

“It’s pretty good.”

Lu Gan smiled and said: “Everyone here is talented and speaks nicely. After entering the prison, he just followed him back. It’s as comfortable as home. I’m still thinking about staying here for a few days. “

Oh?”

Zhao Xuanji’s eyes became serious.

Lu Gan’s expression straightened: “This world belongs to your Majesty. I have neither the merits to rule the world nor the force to suppress the sky. If I get the throne for no reason, I am afraid that all the civil and military officials will not accept it, and the people of the world will not accept it either. Since ancient times, true love has You can’t keep it, and the routine won people’s hearts. So, Wei Chen thought it was better to follow the routine.

“What routine?”

Zhao Xuanji was a little curious.

Lu Gan replied simply and neatly: “It’s just a few things. Auspicious things coming from the sky, brocade handkerchiefs hidden in the belly of fish, white snakes being killed, foxes barking, auspicious beasts appearing… these are all repeated. Then, when your majesty kills me, there will be another one On the second day of the birth, all the Buddhas in the city will move together, and all the saints will sing! Such a vision will definitely arouse the people’s suspicion.”

In this way, the rumor of the reincarnation of the destined son will spread, and it will be easier to take over the throne.

“Your ideas are good, but they are not enough. Civil and military officials and the people of the world recognize my bloodline. You are not my heir. No matter how much you do, it may not work. What else can you do?”

Zhao Xuanjirao asked with interest.

Lu Gan raised his eyebrows: “Isn’t this enough? It seems that we can only use the last resort!”

Zhao Xuanji asked: “What is that?”

Lu Gan took a deep breath, his eyes were as sharp as lightning, and he spat out sixteen words: “The imperial mausoleum was shattered! The ancestors appeared! This way, everything is safe!”

Silence.

There was an eerie silence in the cell.

Zhao Xuanji narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Lu Gan: “The last move is to blow up my ancestral grave and dig out my eighteen generations of ancestors? Let them fake their corpses? Lu Gan, are you too brave? “

Ahem

.”

Lu Qian smiled bitterly: “This is just a little whimsical idea of mine. I can’t take it seriously.”

“Huh,”

Zhao Xuanji said calmly. I’ll give you the throne tomorrow at the court, so there’s no need to go to such trouble.”

Huh?

Lu Qian was stunned when he heard this.

The surprise came so quickly that he couldn’t react.

Then, Lu Gan frowned and asked: “Your Majesty, passing on the throne so hastily may cause shock to the government and the public, and the world will talk a lot! Now is another troubled time, Zheng Yiyi Alliance, the Wuji Heavenly Thieves, and the person in the secret realm of the Yuanshi Mine Immortal Stone Fetus, undercurrents are surging, are you a little too hasty?”

“That’s why I quickly let you succeed,”

Zhao Xuanji said something unexpected.

“Please give me your Majesty’s advice!”

Lu Qian looked solemn and asked for advice.

Zhao Xuanji’s eyes were slightly cold: “This Zhengyi Alliance is not a peaceful place free from worldly conflicts. In fact, the secret fighting and fighting here is more powerful than the Taishang Demon Sect, even worse! Back then, The Zhengyi Alliance is an alliance formed by the breakup and reorganization of dozens of sects. After so many years, the forces of these sects have not disappeared, but exist in another special form. “

The mountains are full of trees!

Four words immediately popped into Lu Gan’s mind, and he immediately frowned: “Your Majesty, what have become of these many sects and forces now?”

“Chamber of Commerce!”

Zhao Xuanji’s eyes flashed sharply: “In the midst of an alliance, , large and small chambers of commerce, their influence penetrated into every corner. In order to resist the invasion of the Taishang Demon Sect, the Zhengdao Alliance joined forces. Before they started fighting with the Taishang Demon Sect, the Taoist Alliance fought for their respective sects. The interests were fought to the death, and finally the three major chambers of commerce were formed, and the Zhengyi Alliance was able to operate and develop. Later, small and large chambers of commerce were established one after another, and eventually it became the three major merchant alliances, the seven major chambers of commerce, and the ten major trading houses. The situation. The Zhengyi Alliance is not so much a sect, but a huge business alliance.

“Isn’t this a business gang?”

Lu Gan frowned, surprised.

One of the three top forces in the Immortality World is actually a business gang?

“The emergence of the Zhengyi Alliance was a last resort from the beginning. It is not surprising that it eventually twisted into a huge and complex force bound by interests.”

After Zhao Xuanji finished speaking, he poured a glass of wine and drank it slowly.

So, there are three oligarchs, seven giants, and ten giants in the Zhengyi Alliance?

Are they secretly controlling the huge Zhengyi Alliance?

It feels very inconsistent and weird when I think about it.

Lu Gan was digesting it secretly, and suddenly thought of something: “But the Zhengyi Alliance regards itself as the right way, and takes it as its duty to kill demons. Is this just a slogan?”

“That’s right.”

Zhao Xuanji nodded coldly: “This is indeed just the right way. The alliance pulled a fig leaf for itself, but they actually only spoke one word. “

What word?” Lu Gan asked immediately.

“Money.”

Zhao Xuanji said one word calmly: “This is one of the reasons why I want you to succeed. You are a traitor, greedy for money, and you are even better at using money to deal with people. You are hanging around in the Zhengyi Alliance. That’s like being in a pack of wolves, like a fish in water.

“…Your Majesty, why do I feel like you are scolding me?”

Lu Gan raised his eyebrows.

“No, I am praising you.”

Zhao Xuanji shook his head and said coldly: “The alliance moved the small world and paid a huge price. It was not because of kindness, but because it wanted to get three things. My Assistance, magical skills that transcend the heavenly level, and… the luck of the small world!”

The last few words seemed to have a hint of cold murderous intent.

Lu Gan looked stern and frowned: “Your Majesty is now a guest minister of the Zhengyi Alliance. He has indeed become a helper of the Zhengyi Alliance. What is going on with this magical power that transcends the heavenly level and Daqian’s luck? ? Did your Majesty just hand over the Sun Moon Starlight Acupoint Refining Technique? “

There is no doubt about the power of the Sun Moon Starlight Acupoint Refining Technique.

Zhao Xuanji had trained millions of acupuncture points, and within a few months he had reached the peak of human immortality. When he beat the human immortals of Taishang Demon Sect in Daluo Holy Land, he was like a father beating his son, and everyone was beaten.

If it weren’t for the Six Paths Demon Emperor, the leader of the Taishang Demon Sect, the number one expert in the Immortality Realm, Huangfu Wutian and others would have been killed by him alone.

This magical skill that transcends the heaven level is simply terrifying to the extreme.

At this time, Zhao Xuanji said coldly: “The sun, moon and starlight refining skills were exchanged, and I got eight magical skills that surpassed the heaven level. Unfortunately, they are of no great use to me. As for the luck of the Daqian world, it is also very It’s easy to understand. Daqian is the place where I am a human being, and my luck is prosperous. In the alliance, there are people who want to occupy the magpie’s nest, and then use Daqian’s luck! Breaking through the peak of human immortality!”

“Huh?”

Lu Qian’s expression suddenly turned cold.

Someone wants to steal his dynasty luck?
