"Father, we came here with great fanfare, are we going to go back to Shouchun City like this?"

King Huainan has stayed in Chang'an City for a long time.

Even though the Empress Dowager urged him to return to Shouchun City, he still insisted on staying in Chang'an City.

But as time passed, the strange atmosphere in Chang'an City became more intense, and many people thought that King Huainan wanted to rebel.

Rebellion was a major crime against the Nine Tribes. It was something that could not be discussed easily, but his attitude of staying at this time undoubtedly proved that King Huainan did have other thoughts.

"What about the mountains and hills?"

The main hall of the Royal Palace is the home court of King Huainan. He does not worry about being eavesdropped when he speaks here. It is difficult for anyone to rely on Yang Soul or other abilities to eavesdrop on him.

The person who asked the question was his daughter Liu Ling, but King Huainan did not directly reply to Liu Ling's words, but asked about Liu Ling's related matters.

"They didn't find the orb that my father mentioned in the tomb. They only found a long arrow with a golden arrowhead and red tail feathers!"

Dashan and Xiaoshan's names are as ordinary as farm brothers, but these two are among the most skilled masters in the Huainan Palace, and are particularly proficient in the art of escaping and digging.

Although Yangling was occupied by Taoist Ran Deng, after the Taoist left, Dashan and Xiaoshan finally entered Yangling, and also conducted an extremely careful and careful search in Yangling.

Those who should search had to search, but the two people who shouldn't move didn't dare to move.

After nearly half a month of searching, the two men were covered in malignant sores, and the search also yielded a final result.

"Someone got in before us!"

King Huainan took a deep breath and felt that he was still a step late in arriving at Chang'an City.

He sent Jinchang to do things early, and even Jinchang brought Huainan's luck. However, Jinchang, who had high hopes from the King of Huainan, suffered a big setback in Yangling.

"Get that arrow!"

King Huainan ordered in a low voice, and Liu Ling quickly left the palace.

Just a moment later, King Huainan had already seen the feather arrows brought out from Yangling by Dashan and Xiaoshan.

The arrowheads of the feather arrows are light golden, the tail feathers are fiery red feathers, and the entire shaft of the arrow is reddish gold.

Seeing the feathered arrows, King Huainan could already imagine what this kind of feathered arrow looked like when it hit someone, and what kind of person could use this kind of feathered arrow.

It was this vicious arrow that seriously injured Jinchang.

But this arrow was probably not specifically aimed at Jinchang. Jinchang was struck by pure bad luck.

There are very few people who can greatly suppress Jinchang's luck and bring such great misfortune to his opponent.

King Huainan has guessed the owner and controller of the feather arrow.

"Keep this arrow safe, and let the mountains and hills fill the tunnel back." King Huainan said: "I will return to Shouchun City tomorrow!"

"Father?" Prince Liu Qian asked anxiously.

"Qian'er, calm down." King Huainan comforted the young prince Liu Qian, then turned to Liu Ling and warned: "You are usually alert and smart, and you know how to act. You stay in Chang'an City and see if you can find out who is taking the throne." Get that bead!"

"What kind of beads are they?" Liu Ling asked.

"That orb is called the Suihou Pearl." King Huainan said after thinking about it: "This is the most precious treasure that can control ghost objects. It is different from ordinary treasures. The Suihou Pearl can control the ghosts that become the souls of top cultivators after they die. I originally wanted to It's only natural to use this orb for some purpose and let Liu Qi's ghost come to court to claim my throne, so that I can claim the rightful name, but I didn't expect that someone would take this orb."

"It's a pity, if we had been earlier..."

"It's too late." King Huainan shook his head and said: "If you want to succeed, you must at least turn Liu Qi into a ghost. There are seven or forty-nine days of soul-raising period. If you take the Sui Hou Pearl early, it will be useless. If you take it later, it will be taken again. This is the luck of the times."

"Why didn't the person who took the orb use this object?" Liu Ling said.

"Not everyone can use this bead!"

King Huainan shook his head. After the ghost of Emperor Jing is charged, he can help the King of Huainan and let the other party's king pass to him, giving him a legitimate opportunity.

But the ghost of Emperor Jing was controlled by others and was useless.

If the cultivation level is low, it will be difficult to control the ghosts. If the cultivation level is high, it will be difficult to control the ghosts and inherit the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty.

Only princes and kings like them who have strength and the possibility of ascending to the throne can bring out the maximum use of the Sui Hou Pearl.

If the strength is weaker, the body may be invaded by the yin energy of Sui Houzhu, resulting in more losses than gains.

And when it becomes difficult to replenish the Sui Hou Pearl, even if there is the ghost of Emperor Jing in the Sui Hou Pearl, the other party will decline and disappear.

If it can be found, King Huainan hopes that Liu Ling can find this orb in the next few years.

If he couldn't find it, there was nothing the King of Huainan could do.

The longer the time goes by, the lower the effect of Emperor Jing's ghost will be, and the further back he goes, the harder it will be to control him.

This time the opportunity was lost, and he could only wait until the people of the Han Dynasty were suffering from civil strife and fighting endlessly before he could take the lead.

If the new emperor is unable to bear the heavy responsibility, he may be pushed to the forefront again.

King Huainan was also glad that he did not announce anything when he came to Chang'an City this time, but only communicated the contents of these plans with the queen and children.

After repeated warnings, he allowed Liu Ling and others to leave the palace.

"Your Majesty, we have brought almost all the elite retainers of Shouchun City to Chang'an City, and His Majesty has gone out of the city to pay homage to his ancestors. Isn't it possible to cause trouble under such a good situation?" the Queen asked in a low voice.

"Liao Tu, you underestimated the one from Anle Palace," King Huainan replied in a low voice.

"The Empress Dowager seems to be ill. I went to Anle Palace earlier..."

"Then you want to bet?"

Before Queen Liao Tu could fully explain her reasons, King Huainan asked directly.

"bet?"

"We won the bet. We defeated the Empress Dowager and took the throne forcibly, risking a big crime, and then were rebelled by the princes and kings of the world." King Huainan said: "We lost the bet, and our whole family was beheaded at Simamen!"

"This……"

"This is the disaster of not having justifiable inheritance. I cannot accept the outcome of winning or losing the bet," King Huainan said: "The best policy is not to bet. We are still kings, and we can still wait for opportunities!"

The King of Huainan came with great fanfare, but returned to Shouchun City in despair. This may seem cowardly but it is the best choice.

Whether he wins or loses the bet, he will be in dire straits.

Only by not gambling can he still be the king of Huainan and continue to sit firmly in his position and wait for opportunities.

It was very expensive to come to Chang'an City before, but King Huainan also showed a familiar face and even won over some high-ranking officials of the court.

If there is any reliable information, it will definitely be convenient for these people to summon him.

After careful calculation, King Huainan felt that he was not at a loss.

He has taken out all his money and given it away, but he cannot be asked to get it back.

After soothing himself, he felt better.

But the King of Huainan could not help but gnash his teeth with hatred for the person who took away the Sui Houzhu, feeling that the other party had ruined his important affairs.

He was just a little bit away from the throne of the Han Dynasty.

This step is the distance that it is difficult for him to climb even if he rebels.
