Eunuch Emperor Wu, sweeping the floor in the cold palace for 100 years

Chapter 12 Qi Huang lost his backing, immortal body

In a blink of an eye, more than two months have passed.

The door of the eunuch hall, which had been closed all along, was finally opened.

It does not open from the inside.

Instead, it is opened from the outside with a special key.

Inside the palace, stood three figures.

Emperor Qi and two old eunuchs in python robes.

They all looked at a figure sitting on the stone bed in front of them.

It was the old eunuch Wu Gong who was sitting in the palace.

The hair is gray and loose, and the skin on the whole body seems to be dehydrated, looking like a corpse.

There was no life left in him.

"Hey, Mr. Wu didn't take that step after all."

Qi Huang sighed quietly.

With Wu Xu sitting down, he will lose a Dinghaishenzhen that he can rely on.

It was this Dinghaishenzhen who once allowed him to secure the throne, completed his personal administration in a huge crisis, rectified the court program, and established the majesty of the emperor.

"Your Majesty, we are disabled people after all. It is too difficult to cross that step. Originally, Mr. Wu was the most hopeful, but we still haven't crossed it."

An old eunuch standing on Qihuang's right had a hint of sadness in his tone.

Even Wu Gong couldn't cross it, let alone them.

Although the two of them were ranked among the python-robed eunuchs with Duke Wu, in fact, Duke Wu's seniority was several generations higher than them.

"Your Majesty, now that Duke Wu has been resigned, once the news gets out, I'm afraid the three families and four factions will be ready to move."

The old eunuch on the left thought about other things.

"The news is blocked, and the news of Mr. Wu's death must not be allowed to spread."

Qi Huang said in a deep voice.

In this world, the only one who can control the general situation is the Grand Master of Celestial Phenomena.

The Daqi royal family lost the astronomical grand master to sit in command, and also lost their deterrent power against the world's great forces.

In the past hundred years, it was because of Wu Gong, the great master of celestial phenomena, who sat in the imperial palace and deterred the world, so Daqi did not have great chaos.

But even so, it is almost impossible for the government orders of the Daqi court to come out of Zhongzhou.

In the thirteen prefectures of Daqi, the three families and five factions each occupy a fertile land in one prefecture, almost like the emperor of the earth, and almost all the government offices here are controlled by these eight prefectures.

In the remaining border states, there are also major warlord towns and separatists.

"Old slave obeys the order."

The two old eunuchs in boa robes hurriedly bowed down and said respectfully.

After Wu Gong's death, they are the only remaining two python-robed eunuchs.

They are all masters of the peak diamond realm.

Unfortunately, stuck at this step, unable to enter the level of astronomical masters.

From Vajra Realm to Celestial Phenomenon Realm, it seems that there is only one difference, but it is a world of difference.

Otherwise, there will be no celestial phenomenon, and they will all be ants.

It is also because of this that the imperial court lost its deterrent power to the world without the Great Master of Astronomical Phenomenon sitting in charge.

Qi Huang's majesty will be greatly reduced.

into the night.

The moonlight is clear.

In the cold palace, it was very quiet.

But the other palaces and gardens outside the cold palace were brightly lit, and there were still many court ladies and eunuchs busy.

Kunxi Palace.

The place where the queen lives.

"Your Majesty, this old slave got the news that Mr. Wu may have passed away."

Wei He, the eunuch who was in charge of the official seal, said in a low voice.

"Eunuch Cao, really?"

There was a touch of excitement and excitement on the empress's beautiful face.

It was this old eunuch Wu Xu who had always made her very scrupulous, unable to completely control the harem.

She even protected her original enemy, Concubine Xu.

With Concubine Xu's crimes back then, it is possible for Concubine Xu to be executed by the furious Emperor Qi, not to mention being thrown into the cold palace, but it was the old eunuch Wu Xu's intercession that saved Concubine Xu from death.

Old eunuch Wu Xu, as a python-robed eunuch, has a detached position, how could he plead for Concubine Xu Gui?

The reason is very simple. When Concubine Xu Gui, who was very much loved by the Qi Emperor, gave birth to the little prince Li Jing, there was a dystocia, and everyone was helpless. And the little prince is safe and sound.

With this level of involvement, it is normal for the old eunuch Wu Xu to intercede for Concubine Xu.

It was also because of this that the empress hated the old eunuch Wu Xu deeply, but there was nothing she could do.

Now that the old eunuch may have melted away, she is definitely applauding.

Moreover, she saw an excellent opportunity to get rid of Concubine Xu and the evil species.

Once the old eunuch Wu Xu died, Emperor Qi would definitely divert his attention from Concubine Xu Gui and the evil species.

Although she and Qi Huang can't be said to be in the same situation, they have long since lost half of their affection as husband and wife.

The main reason is her status.

She is the daughter of the Pei family in Qingzhou, one of the three families and four factions.

The Pei family in Qingzhou is a super family of martial arts that has been passed down for thousands of years.

The ancestor of the Pei family is a prestigious master of astronomical phenomena.

Moreover, the Pei family has a special inheritance, which can ensure that the Great Master of Tianxiang will not be cut off.

That is to say, even if the previous generation of astronomical grand masters is close to life, a new generation of astronomical grand masters can be cultivated.

This ensures the continuity of the family.

Not only the Pei family in Qingzhou, but also the other two and four schools have similar inheritance.

This is also the magic weapon for the three schools and four factions to survive forever and stand firm.

Even the current Daqi royal family, who have ruled the world for hundreds of years, cannot do it.

If it hadn't been for the birth of the top astronomical master, the old eunuch Wu Xu, in the palace, the world would have been in chaos when the last astronomical master of the Daqi royal family fell as early as more than 100 years ago.

Now that the old eunuch Wu Xu is sitting down, the queen's waist is straightened.

Because standing behind her is Qingzhou Pei's family.

"Your Majesty, although I can't be 100% sure, with Mr. Wu's age and his body as a eunuch, if you forcefully break through the Martial Saint Realm, you will definitely fail."

Wei He said with certainty.

"Okay, this old man is finally dead."

The empress was very happy.

From now on, the harem will be her world.

With Qingzhou Pei's family as a backer, Qi Huang must be afraid of her three points.

Moreover, if Emperor Qi wanted to ensure a great Qi in the world, he had to rely on her, relying on the Qingzhou Pei family behind her.

In this way, her son's crown prince will be as stable as Mount Tai.

Similarly, the Pei family in Qingzhou will definitely support her son's enthronement as emperor.

"Okay, Eunuch Wei, you go down first, continue to keep an eye on the eunuch's palace for me, and report as soon as you have any news."

The empress nodded and said.

"Yes, ma'am."

Wei He bowed slightly and said.

He was also very excited in his heart, once Wu Gong died, the empress's position in the harem would become more and more stable, and he, as the first one to join the empress, would definitely benefit greatly.

In the future, it should be no problem to seal a boa-robed eunuch.

After Wei He left respectfully, the empress suddenly said, "Come out."

Soon, a figure came out from behind like a ghost, it was an old nanny.

"Miss."

The old nanny said respectfully.

"Tell this news to Qingzhou."

said the Empress.

"Yes."

The old nanny turned around and disappeared.

As a queen, there are naturally confidantes and eunuchs by her side.

Especially the old maids and nuns who were martial arts masters she brought from the Pei family in Qingzhou.

The cold palace, within the cave on the ground.

Ye Cheng slowly opened his eyes, revealing a touch of emotion.

The power of life pill in the body has been completely exhausted.

This means that Ming Dan's effect on him is basically over, and what is left is the cultivation experience and realm that can break through to the Martial Saint.

For the next practice, he will have to consume cultivation resources.

"It's still a little bit close to reaching the level of the peak astronomical master."

Ye Cheng felt the connection between Qihai Dantian in his body and the outside world.

It is far stronger than when it broke through to the astronomical grand master.

If we say that when we first entered the sky, one piece of true energy can only leverage more than a dozen pieces of the power of heaven and earth.

So now, a piece of true energy can almost leverage nearly a hundred of the power of heaven and earth.

The gap is very large.

It is equivalent to a collection of more than a dozen astronomical masters, and a collection of nearly a hundred astronomical masters is not at the same level at all.

Whoosh!
Suddenly, a black shadow appeared on the window lattice.

It's Black Crow.

Ye Cheng glanced at it and said with a smile, "Xiao Hei, what did you get this time?"

Now one person, one bird, has formed a tacit understanding.

If Xiao Hei doesn't fly in, it means that he entered the world of silence and got nothing.

But if it flies to the window, it must be rewarding.

Some time ago, Xiao Hei still got a few things.

It's just a little bit of bad luck, once appeared in the wilderness, once in a village where ordinary people lived, and once in a boundless sea.

After the black crow enters the different world, in addition to the limited time to stay, the range of activities is also very limited, and he cannot leave the place where he appeared too far.

So these three times, I only took one thing back at random.

The only good time, I got a strange robe.

According to Xiao Hei, this cassock was worn on a dead bone, and some evil spirits fought for it.

When Ye Cheng saw this strange cassock, he felt creepy, as if something bad would happen if he put it on, so he didn't dare to put it on at all, and directly threw it into the storage ring.

"Master, this crow has gone to the same place as last time again this time."

said the crow.

"and then?"

Ye Cheng asked.

"There is no one there anymore, only a dry bone is left, so this crow brought the dry bone back."

The crow said a little embarrassedly.

A black line appeared on Ye Cheng's forehead.

Dry bones?

Just the dead bone wearing the weird cassock last time?
That cassock is so weird and evil, let alone withered bones.

The crow opened its mouth and spat out, and a black light suddenly emerged, turned into a dry bone, and fell to the ground.

This dry bone is a bit weird, unlike ordinary human bones formed after death, the bones of this dry bone look much thicker and fuller.

So it looks like a bone corpse.

Moreover, the color of this dry bone is black all over, with a black jade-like feeling.

The strange thing is that this dry bone does not have the strange feeling of the vestment, but it feels ordinary.

Ye Cheng carefully looked at the dead bones and used his mental detection, but was unexpectedly stopped by an invisible force.

He even vaguely sensed the flickering of strange runes in the black jade-like dry bones.

His complexion gradually became brighter.

Because he thought of a possibility.

In the storage ring he got last time, there were jade slips inside, and he had checked them one by one.

Among them are detailed introductions about the world of cultivation, various treasures of heaven and earth, secret books of magic skills, strange beasts and strange things, etc.

Some of the characteristics displayed by this dry bone are a bit like the body of a heavenly man.

But the body of heaven and man should be complete.

Because the body of the celestial being is formed after the celestial being sits and transforms, even if the celestial being dies, the body can remain immortal for thousands of years.

And the dead bone in front of him is only a skeleton, and the skin, muscles, organs, etc. are all gone.

Therefore, he was not sure.

He had seen a saying on a piece of jade slip that the body of a celestial being had a mark of martial arts, and if he could extract it and integrate it into himself, he would have a chance to gain a little power of a celestial being.

I don't know if it's true.

However, the strange runes faintly flickering from the bones are likely to be a mark of martial arts.

If it can be extracted and has a trace of the power of heaven and man, then the improvement of strength can be imagined.

After looking at the skeleton for a moment, Ye Cheng took a deep breath, knowing that he was not yet capable of extracting any marks of martial arts.

Let's wait until he reaches the martial saint level.

At least he can't even enter the bones with his spirit now.

So, with a wave of Ye Cheng's hand, his spirit moved, covering the whole skeleton, and the next moment, the skeleton disappeared.
