Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 379
In the Canglong Hall, Liang Jixiong sat silently in the main hall with his eyes glazed over.

The prince made a glass of wine and brought it to Liang Jixiong: "Old Ancestor, if you drink a glass, it will be considered as a promise to me.

I will move here tonight, and I will be the Canglongwei from today onwards, please find some time to take me to swear to the True God Canglong, that I will not marry, not be appointed, and not be an official, I will memorize all the oaths,

Old Ancestor, you just want to say something, I am determined to be the Canglongwei, so please help me..."

Liang Jixiong didn't say a word.

The prince looked at Xu Zhiqiong and said, "Zhiqiong, you can also say something for me."

Before Xu Zhiqiong could speak, Liang Jixiong raised his head and stood up abruptly, knocking over the prince's wine glass: "Be the Canglong Guard, you will be the Canglong Guard! Who cares about Daxuan's country!"

The prince lowered his head and said nothing.

Xu Zhiqiong persuaded from the side: "Second brother, don't get angry, let's think about it..."

"Where did you go!" Liang Jixiong yelled at Xu Zhiqiong, "Tai Bu sent the head of that stupid king three days ago, where have you been these three days? Such a big thing happened, you Let me talk to someone!"

How did Xu Zhiqiong answer?

I went to the Yincao Difu and sent the crimes of Liang Daguan's family to the Hall of Yan Luo?

Can you explain this clearly?

Liang Jixiong looked up and sighed: "I'm a waste, I'm sorry to my ancestors! My old bones, what's the use of living to this day!"

What happened?

Someone is competing with the prince for the throne.

Who is this person?

Is it He Fang?

No.

It was King Jin Liang Huaiyu.

Apart from Canglongwei, among the royal family members in the capital, King Jin Liang Huaiyu was the only male who escaped the blood sacrifice in Liangfenyuan.

On the day of the blood sacrifice in Liangfenyuan, he was the only member of the clan who was not present.

Why is he not there?
Because he found a suitable reason, he said that he was old and seriously ill and couldn't get out of bed.

Emperor Zhaoxing just let him go?

Really let him go, because King Jin Liang Huaiyu is the only clan member who does not pose any threat to Emperor Zhaoxing.

Liang Huaiyu is from the Huai generation, and is the uncle of Emperor Zhaoxing. He is eighty-six years old this year. Because of his poor talent, he has no cultivation in his life. At this age, there is basically no possibility of competing for the throne.

Moreover, Liang Huaiyu himself has no interest in the throne. He is only interested in one thing in his life, and that is women.

There are hundreds of women in Liang Huaiyu's main wife, concubine, and outer room, but he is physically defective, unable to bear children, and has not left a single offspring. This old prince really does not pose any threat to Emperor Zhaoxing.

But now, he poses a threat to the prince.

Knowing that Emperor Zhaoxing passed away, Liang Huaiyu sent two suggestions to Canglong Temple:
First, the stupid king deserves to die, and a new one should be established as soon as possible.

Liang Jixiong listened to this suggestion like a fart. Among the clan, Liang Jixiong looked down on Liang Huaiyu the most, so it was not his turn to worry about it.

Second, the crown prince is not qualified to succeed to the throne. His cultivation has surpassed the seventh rank, so he should be appointed as the Canglong Guard in the Canglong Palace. Among the clan, only he himself is qualified to succeed to the throne.

Liang Jixiong was furious when he heard the news. If the members of the clan were not about to die, Liang Jixiong would have liked to have killed Liang Huaiyu on the spot.

In order to eradicate Emperor Zhaoxing, how many people paid a price?How can we allow this bird to come and pick peaches?
But Liang Huaiyu proposed to test his cultivation in public.

Liang Jixiong only regarded this old man as a rumor, pointed at Liang Huaiyu's nose and said: "You are deceiving the public and stirring up chaos in the court, and you will be cut off from the king, and you will be sent to prison!"

Who would have thought that Liang Huaiyu didn't give in, but the crown prince did, so he didn't dare to test it!
Having been a prince for decades, although Liang Huaiyu never got involved in government affairs, he still had a few cronies in the court, and he encouraged these courtiers to ask the prince for an explanation.

The prince had no choice but to secretly tell Liang Jixiong the truth.

Knowing that the crown prince has been promoted to the sixth rank, Liang Jixiong immediately panicked.

Clan members who have passed the seventh rank must enter the Canglong Palace. This is the rule established by the founding emperor Taizu. Liang Jixiong cannot break this rule.

There are only two paths left for the prince, one is to publicly test his cultivation and prove his innocence.

The second is to withdraw from the battle for the throne and serve as the Canglong Guard in the Canglong Palace.

The prince has no way to prove his innocence, so he can only choose to be the Canglongwei.

Liang Jixiong was not reconciled, he was unwilling to hand over the throne to Liang Huaiyu anyway.

But he couldn't help this matter. Just this morning, Liang Huaiyu brought people to the Canglong Hall and made a fuss all day, forcing Liang Jixiong to give him an explanation.

Liang Jixiong had no choice but to agree, and three days later, he summoned all the civil and military officials to test the crown prince's cultivation.

This is just a tactic to slow down the troops. If the prince really proves the sixth-rank cultivation after three days, not only will he have no hope of succeeding to the throne, he will also be unable to gain a foothold in Daxuan in the future.

In order to preserve his last dignity, the prince decided to join Canglongwei tonight.

Xu Zhiqiong listened to what had happened and pondered deeply.

Liang Jixiong looked at Xu Zhiqiong full of expectation, this was his last hope.

After waiting for a while, Xu Zhiqiong finally spoke:

"After a whole day of trouble in the Canglong Palace, King Jin's body is quite strong!"

"What are you talking about!" Liang Jixiong was disappointed.

Xu Zhiqiong was very serious: "I have to talk about this matter. On the day of the Liangfen Garden sacrifice, King Jin said that he was seriously ill and couldn't get out of bed, so he went to the Canglong Palace to make a fuss today. Don't you think this matter is strange?"

Liang Jixiong sneered and said, "You don't need to ask, this old man lied before, he doesn't want to go to Liangfen Garden to sacrifice!"

"Why doesn't he want to sacrifice?"

Liang Jixiong said impatiently: "If you go, you will die. Does he want to die?"

Xu Zhiqiong continued to ask: "How did he know that he would die if he went there?"

"He..." Liang Jixiong was stunned, this matter was really ignored by him.

After returning to the capital, he sent Canglongwei to investigate the matter, and learned from the palace servants that the royal clan members had the intention of rebelling first, and wanted to support King Rong as the emperor, and Emperor Zhaoxing got the news, so he summoned the clan Go to Liangfen Garden to offer sacrifices.

Xu Zhiqiong listened to the cause and effect, and said thoughtfully; "King Rong is very popular, and the clan is united in supporting him as the new king."

Liang Jixiong sighed: "Xianjun does have some prestige, but the reason why the clan is so united is because they received the oracle."

"What oracle?"

"All the relatives of the royal family in Beijing had the same dream. They dreamed that the True God Canglong issued an oracle, saying that it was Zhao's rise and fall, and that King Rong was established. They also saw King Rong sitting on the throne and rewarding him for meritorious deeds."

"Did you have the same dream?" Xu Zhiqiong was deeply suspicious of this.

Liang Jixiong said: "This matter should be true. According to what the servants said, several princes talked about this dream together when they were having a banquet. Zong personally formed an alliance with this, and that faint king was also motivated to kill."

Xu Zhiqiong pondered for a long time, and asked, "Second Brother, have you ever had this dream?"

Liang Jixiong shook his head and said, "I was not in the capital at that time."

Xu Zhiqiong asked again: "The prince has not had this dream?"

The crown prince shook his head and said, "I'm not in the capital either."

Xu Zhiqiong asked again: "Has the Canglongwei in Beijing ever had this dream?"

Liang Jixiong shook his head and said, "No one in Canglongwei has ever had this dream. They can't compete for the throne, and presumably the true god won't send an oracle to them."

Xu Zhiqiong was silent for a long time, then suddenly smiled.

Liang Jixiong frowned and said, "Why are you laughing?"

Xu Zhiqiong said: "Liang Yuming recruited the Yuan Xing, which almost touched the foundation of Daxuan, but the true God of Canglong didn't pay attention to it.
Emperor Zhaoxing practiced Taotie's evil way for many years, and even brought the outer body of Taotie to the mortal world.
Now, the True God Canglong suddenly issued an oracle to remind the clan to establish a new monarch, and even thought about the candidate for the new monarch.
Moreover, the scope of Tuomeng is very accurate, those who are not in the capital cannot receive it, and those who do not participate in the battle for the throne cannot receive it.

Not to mention the true god, even the star officials don't care about mortal affairs, this time the true god entrusted the dream, it is too hard! "

Liang Jixiong blinked his eyes, realizing that there was indeed something strange about this matter.

After the death of King Huai, he and Liang Gongping reported to Lord Dunnian Xing together. After waiting for a long time, they only waited for a four-word reply: What are you doing to me!

King Xing doesn't care about mortal affairs, how could the True God Canglong put in so much effort to organize a usurpation of power?
Even if the behavior of Emperor Zhaoxing made the True God intolerable, and the True God could kill Emperor Zhaoxing by simply moving his fingers, why bother?
Liang Jixiong muttered to himself: "If this dream didn't come from the True God Canglong, who would it come from?
Why did King Jin not participate in the sacrificial ceremony in Liangfen Garden, and who did he hear from?

How did he know that the prince's cultivation had reached the sixth rank? "

After thinking for a long time, Liang Jixiong raised his head and said, "Let's think about it later, Zhiqiong, the most urgent thing is to deal with the prince's cultivation."

Xu Zhiqiong said: "Second brother, you once abolished Liang Yuming's cultivation, and you also abolished the cultivation of Tunu General Nie Gulai, but you can't let the crown prince's cultivation drop by one level?"

Liang Jixiong sighed and said: "It's good to completely abolish your cultivation base, but if you just want to drop down to a rank, I can't control the heat.
When selecting scholars last year, all the civil and military officials knew that the crown prince was a high-ranking official. If I abolished all the prince's cultivation bases, it would make the officials suspicious.
What's more, the matter of abolishing the cultivation base will cause great damage to the prince. I dare not do it unless it is absolutely necessary. "

Xu Zhiqiong said again: "Since that's the case, let's do something on the Ruiming Pagoda. We just need to discuss this matter with Tai Bu."

Liang Jixiong frowned and said, "I don't want Tai Bu to know about this."

Xu Zhiqiong said: "Tai Bu knew about it a long time ago. How could King Jin hide it from Tai Bu by making such a fuss? It's better to tell him the truth."

Liang Jixiong hesitated for a while and said: "It's okay to tell him, but Tai Bu is usually cautious, so he may not be willing to do such a big matter."

Xu Zhiqiong stood up and said, "I'll go persuade him."

Liang Jixiong nodded; "Alright, if you can't persuade him, I'll discuss it with him again."

If he really couldn't persuade Tai Bu, Xu Zhiqiong also stayed behind.

In addition to Tai Bu, there is also Zhong Shen, who can fake Liang Xianchun's cultivation, so naturally he has a way to help the prince.

But the crown prince may not be able to accept tattooing on his body, so he should first find a solution from Tai Bu.

After Xu Zhiqiong left, Liang Jixiong stared at his back for a long time.

"Strange, I always feel that there seems to be something extra on Zhiqiong."

The prince's pupils were filled with blood, turning into a pair of red eyes, he nodded and said, "I also find it strange, as if someone has been following Zhiqiong."

……

Emperor Zhaoxing died, and Tai Bu secretly moved the Yin Yang Division back to the capital. Xu Zhiqiong came to the Yin Yang Division and asked his disciples to pass it on.

The doorman went away for a while, and replied, "Tai Bu has an invitation."

Xu Zhiqiong arrived at Tai Bu's room, as usual, Tai Bu was still sitting under the green lamp with a peaceful expression.

"Kangsheng, your cultivation level has increased!"

Nothing can be hidden from this old man, Xu Zhiqiong didn't pick up the words, and said directly: "This junior is here for the succession of the crown prince."

Tai Bu nodded and said: "I already know the matter, the crown prince has reached the sixth rank, King Jin wants to fight for the throne on this ground."

Xu Zhiqiong said: "The crown prince will definitely become a wise king of the generation, and please help Taibu in this matter."

"It's easy to say, after I have dealt with Ruiming Pagoda, the measured cultivation base is still seventh grade."

Tai Bu agreed very happily!

Xu Zhiqiong clasped his fists in thanks and was about to say goodbye.

Don't talk nonsense at this moment, if you agree to something, you will be recorded in the "Iron Words Book" by Taibo.

"Kangsheng, don't rush away," Tai Bu stared at Xu Zhiqiong for a moment, "Not only has the judge's cultivation base increased, but the Yin and Yang cultivation base has also increased!"

Xu Zhiqiong was not too surprised when Tai Bu directly said the word judge, but according to what Tai Bu said, his yin and yang cultivation seemed to have reached the seventh rank.

This is a good thing, it should be the effect of the elixir.

"Kangsheng, you know the seventh grade of yin and yang, what skills do you have?"

The sun is coming out from the west, yet Tai Bu is willing to take the initiative to give me advice?
What is he trying to do?

Want to draw me into the Yin Yang Division again?
No matter what the purpose is, let's take advantage of it first, and don't agree to anything else.

"This junior doesn't know the seventh-rank skills, so I sincerely ask the Taibu for guidance."

Tai Bu Dao: "The skill of the seventh grade of yin and yang is called the two powers of good and bad, and the meaning of balancing power is the technique of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages. , I am in a good mood today, and I will teach you the method of astrology first."

After finishing speaking, Tai Bu waved his hand, and the astrology disk appeared in front of Xu Zhiqiong.

"Do you know where the twenty-eight constellations are?"

Xu Zhiqiong didn't know anything about astrology, so he explained them one by one to the astrology disk.

After talking about the twenty-eight mansions, Taibo caressed the stars and said: "In addition to the stars, there are also outstanding stars among the stars. Look here,

This place is where the Shengke double star is located, and it is the root of my Yin-Yang Taoism. Its light is only one step away from the main star of the constellation. "

Xu Zhiqiong stared at the astrology disk for a long time, but saw nothing.

"Tai Bu, forgive me for being stupid, but where are the birth and countering twin stars?"

"It's gone!" Tai Bu stared at Xu Zhiqiong with wide eyes.

"It's gone?" Xu Zhiqiong was surprised, "How could it be gone?"

"It's gone! Hahahaha!" Tai Bu laughed loudly, "My Taoist gate is about to collapse!"

Too crazy!
