Too much fruit

Chapter 346 The Gift of Impunity

The rain is still falling and is gradually getting faster.

A carriage drove out from the relatively remote north gate of the imperial city, passing mansions at a constant speed. After exiting the city gate in the upper city, it stopped in an alley in the inner city.

The driver of the car was wearing a cloth suit and a bamboo hat, and was very low-key.After stopping the carriage, he entered the carriage and saluted the second prince who was sitting upright.

"No need to be polite, just tell me the news." The second prince waved his hand.

The reason why he left the imperial city at this time was to hear the news.

In the imperial city, even if he knew that the emperor was only sensitive to certain words, the second prince did not dare to say more. Even if he replaced it with words such as "Your Majesty" and "Father", he was afraid that the emperor would find out.

After all, that person is one of the six most powerful people in the world. Even without the induction of the Emperor's Dao Fruit, his divine consciousness alone can cover the entire city of God and sense various qi.

If it only covers the imperial city, then everything in the imperial city cannot be hidden from the emperor.

The second prince is not a third-level powerhouse like Gongsun Qi and Zhang Zhixuan. In the imperial city, he is cautious about his words and deeds, and considers every word carefully.

"Yes," the eunuch responded in a low voice, and then said quickly, "His Majesty sent Nantian Si Wan Dingtian to Tianlao to take Yang Chen's life, and then handed Yang Chen's Dao Fruit to Grand Duke Cao Lin, who delivered it in person. Arrived at Yunming Pavilion."

Regarding Yang Zhen's death, the emperor did not cover it up.Everyone in Nantiansi went to Tianlao in the open. Someone must know their whereabouts and explore in this direction.

In this divine city, there is no shortage of people spying on other people's whereabouts.At this juncture, the gods in the city are even more densely aware, and there are ears and eyes from all sides. It can be said that there is a mixed bag of fish and dragons.

Covering up the trip to the Heavenly Prison seems to be a cover-up. It would be better to release the news of Yang Zhen's death to cover up another truth.

Moreover, it can also let others see the power of the emperor, which has the effect of knocking mountains and shaking tigers.

But in this way, it may also make people think about why Yang Chen was killed?

The second prince immediately noticed this blind spot, "Could it be the Taiping Sect..."

Before he finished speaking, he choked his voice in his throat and forced it to stop. He couldn't hide the horror in his eyes.

Could it be that the news in recent days was secretly fueled by the Taiping Sect?

After this news spread outside the palace, I believe many people will make such conjectures.

Then, some people may think, could the rumors be true and the emperor is trying to live forever?
Some people may also think: The Taiping Sect is acting like a monster again and spreading rumors.

There is no way, the Taiping Sect has a criminal record.After experiencing the Yongzhou Incident, many people regarded the Taiping Sect as potential rebels.It is not surprising that such rebels try to disrupt Chao Gang.

This was also the emperor's intention in beating Zhang Zhixuan.

It is completely normal for an anti-thief to slander the emperor. Don't be anxious or panic. The emperor is definitely not thinking about immortality. Those rumors are all false. Everyone continues to play music and dance.

As for the second prince, he belongs to the former.

Being in the palace, the second prince was very sensitive to the changes in the atmosphere in the imperial city.There has indeed been a bit more turmoil in the imperial city recently, and the security in the palace has become even tighter.

If this precaution had not been made openly, the second prince might not even be able to leave the palace.

Thinking of this, the second prince became more and more shocked, and at the same time he felt deeply unwilling.

If the emperor lives forever, what will happen to these princes?Keep waiting?

Although his lifespan is sufficient, it is not a problem to live for another hundred years without accommodating the Emperor's Dao Fruit.But he has been working hard for the throne of emperor for decades. He is already in his fifties this year, and he will be sixty in a few years.

"Is there a prince who has been 60 years old in this world?"

A voice suddenly came from outside the carriage, expressing the second prince's heart.

"Sorry, I forgot that you are not a prince yet, you are just a prince. You are not certain to ascend the throne." The person outside the carriage paused and said in a clear and strange voice, "In this case, will the second prince feel better? Even if my father-in-law Even if you are not dead, you may not be able to ascend the throne.”

The word "Emperor" was also not mentioned in his words, so he obviously had some understanding of the Emperor's path and fruit.

And the second prince could only remember one person making this weird voice.

He stretched out his hand to stop the eunuch, shook his head slightly, and then said in a cold voice: "You kill the brothers and sisters, and then you dare to show up again, with impunity. You are really brave!"

The last time he met this person, the second prince never expected that the other person was so bold and dared to kill the emperor at his feet.

At that time, he judged that the other party was a madman with no taboos, and he was actually right.

And this time, impunity appears again...
The second prince's heart was full of vigilance, his powerful skills were ready to go, and light yellow lines quietly appeared on his calm and powerful face.

The eunuch on the side had hidden murderous intentions and a cold air.

Both of them were ready to take action.

Just when the second prince was on alert, the carriage moved again.

Accompanied by the crisp sound of horse hooves, the carriage moved slowly. Judging from the direction, it seemed to be heading to the outer city.

The people outside the carriage chuckled and said, "If you're not bold, how could you dare to take such a name?"

"Moreover, if I, a madman, hadn't killed the fourth prince, how could the second prince have benefited? There are many things left by your siblings that have been advantageous to you."

Before the death of the fourth prince, the second prince chased him and beat him, so he was the first to share the cake after his death.

Jiang Li only took the fourth prince's belongings, but didn't take any of the other belongings.

This statement was quite ironic, and made the fourth prince's brothers feel angry, and then relaxed.

Because listening to the other party's words, it seemed that he had no intention of attacking the prince again.

That's it.

Even though he thinks that his level of strength is higher than that of his opponent, he is so weird that it makes people unconsciously vigilant.

"What do you want to do?" the second prince asked solemnly.

"I don't want to do anything, I just want to give the second prince some good gifts."

The people outside the carriage chuckled and said in an understatement: "Yang Chen was not sentenced to death, but was assassinated."

"I killed it."

Even in the city where the second prince heard this, his heart was churning, and his level of shock was no less than when he had guessed the emperor's intention before.

He forcibly suppressed the ups and downs in his heart, suppressed the fluctuations in his voice, and said: "Yang Chen is locked up in the sky prison!"

"So I sneaked into the sky prison, killed him, and then escaped before your father's eyes came to him." Jiang Li said calmly.

His tone was as indifferent as if he was talking about how to put an elephant into a refrigerator. It was quite simple and unpretentious.

The second prince and the eunuch almost couldn't help asking, but they didn't know how to ask.

The voice outside the carriage continued.

"I don't think I need to say anything more about what this means. Second Prince, this is an opportunity."

That voice was like the devil in Buddhist mythology, which aroused the ambition in the heart of the second prince and ignited a wildfire.

The emperor is old, he is anxious, he has become weak.People who realize this can break the awe and obedience to the emperor in their hearts and see an opportunity.

It may seem like just a piece of news, but at certain moments, it can give the second prince an advantage and greatly increase his chances of ascending to that throne.

The premise is that the second prince is willing to believe this news, which sounds absurd and unruly.

"Why do I believe you?" the second prince asked.

"When you said this, you were already trying to believe it. All you need is a reason," Jiang Li sneered and said, "Moreover, coming out of the palace at this juncture, in your heart, Do you have some expectations?"

Moments like this are about taking the lead. Whoever dares to take the lead will face liquidation afterwards.

The other princes were still hibernating and staying in the imperial city, but the second prince chose to leave the city.In his heart, he may have already made some guesses about the emperor's situation, and he has some faith in the rumors circulating among the people.

"The reason you need is already in your heart."

The laughter rose, and the words pierced into the heart like a sharp sword, "You want to be on the [-]th Five-Year Plan, is this enough reason?"

enough.

Compared with any explanation or persuasion, this reason actually touched the second prince's mind more.

If you want to reach the [-]th Five-Year Plan, you must seize every opportunity.Even without the news from Jiang Li, the second prince might have taken action.

There seemed to be a fire burning in my heart, burning out a fiery heat.

His ambition has been completely aroused by Jiang Li.

Of course, there are also some small operations involved, such as using the secret sword of the inner demon to induce thoughts...
Jiang Li can guarantee that he really only acted as a therapist for a while, and he definitely did not add fuel to his ambition. His Secret Sword of Inner Demons has not yet reached this level.

He is only responsible for lighting the fire, not adding firewood.

It can be ignited only because of the other party's ambition.

At this time, the carriage had a tendency to gradually slow down.

The second prince and the eunuch looked at each other and saw the other person silently spit out two words - "Inner City".

Along the way, they kept their spiritual consciousness out and were always vigilant about their surroundings to avoid being ambushed and plotted.Therefore, when the carriage was about to stop, the second prince knew the location of the carriage clearly.

Of course, these two people also thought about detecting the madman outside the carriage, but no matter how they used their spiritual senses to detect, they couldn't get any feedback.

There seemed to be no one outside the carriage, not to mention a physical form, not even the vaporized form from last time.It was as if the horse moved on its own and took the two of them all the way to this place - the inner city.

The other party didn't seem to have any intention of driving the carriage out of the capital, which prevented a conflict between the two sides.

If the carriage drove out of the divine capital, the safety of the second prince would be somewhat difficult to guarantee.Although the second prince is a fifth-grade prince and has various magical and Taoist weapons on his body, his life-saving ability is definitely not bad.

But outside the divine capital, it is still not as safe as the divine capital.

Because in the capital of the gods, if the second prince is in a desperate situation, he can still shout "Dad, save me"...

The carriage gradually slowed down and slowly walked to a mansion.

The plaque above the main entrance appears in Perception.

——Shen Mansion.

"Your Highness, this is the residence of Shen Yuan, the Zuo Neishi of Jingzhao Mansion in charge of the outer city." The eunuch said via message.

"It's him..." the second prince suddenly said.

Shen Yuan, the left-hand internal historian of Jingzhao Mansion, the last time he met with the lawless people, the other party mentioned Mr. Shen, who was kind-hearted and hated beggars.

The second prince at that time took note of this person out of public concern, and later investigated.

Jingzhao Mansion manages Shendu and its surrounding thirty counties. Although it sounds like a very unlucky official to serve under the emperor, his position is quite crucial.

This is the capital of the gods, the capital of one dynasty, and every position can play its role.

Especially at the stall where the emperor is about to visit Bintian...

Whether it is public or private, the two princes will investigate it.If there is a clue, then find a way to subdue him, or directly change and reach into Jingzhao Mansion.

The impunity drove the carriage here, so what did he want to do...

······
······
The invisible sword light wandered through Shen's mansion, passing through the main hall and going straight to the main room.

The kind-hearted Lord Shen is currently staring in deep thought in the study room of the main house, twirling his beard with one hand and stroking it from time to time.

The city of God is in turmoil, and various rumors are now appearing in the public. In recent days, some people are testing him and starting to win him over.

For Shen Yuan to become an official in the Jingzhao Mansion, he must pass the test of the emperor. In theory, he is undoubtedly an imperialist and on the side of the emperor.But who said Mr. Shen is kind-hearted?

Mr. Shen, who can say "I can't see beggars suffering", will naturally not stick to one side's position.

As the saying goes, good birds choose trees to roost in, and those who know the current affairs are heroes. Shen Yuan asked himself if he could sit in the history of Jingzhao Mansion, he could definitely be regarded as a hero.

Of course, you can't just jump back and put your eggs in the same basket. Maybe His Majesty succeeded?

"Everything is for the country and the country." Shen Yuan stroked his beard and smiled.

"Then for the sake of Jiangshan Sheji, please die."

An inexplicable sound suddenly broke in, and the wooden window of the study suddenly opened, letting wind and rain pour in.

A sword light suddenly flashed, seemingly tangible, seemingly invisible, as bright as the light of the sky, as dark as the abyss of the ocean.

Different colors were reflected in Shen Yuan's eyes. On one side was the clear and flawless sword energy, which was as vast and invisible as the sky. On the other side was the gloomy and ghostly light and shadow, turning into countless ferocious and strange shadows.

The pupils seemed to be cut in half by the sword light, and a sword mark clearly separated the two.

At this moment, he seemed to have seen both heaven and hell.

"Boom-"

The standing body fell onto the Grand Master's chair, making a dull sound like a dead thing. Shen Yuan's head drooped, and his face seemed to be divided into two different halves, one side was pure and indifferent, while the other side was as ferocious as a ghost.

He died for the country.

With a flash of sword light, he exited the study, and at the same time the wooden window closed automatically, and everything was as before.

Outside the Shen Mansion, the second prince thought of some possibility and immediately opened the carriage and was about to get out.

At this moment, someone seemed to hear a dull noise in the study and hurriedly broke into the study and saw Shen Yuan's body at a glance.

　Four thousand words.

　　Still stuck, I'm so stuck.
