Heaven rewards those who work hard: There is no bottleneck in my martial arts

Chapter 207: Conspiracy, the Seventh Prince’s Treason

The fourth prince, Zhao Hongli, had a look on his face. He lowered his voice and asked carefully, "Where did Mr. Huo get the news?"

Huo Zhi smiled and did not answer Zhao Hongli's question directly.

He said unhurriedly: "His Royal Highness the King of Thailand should know that in the past few years, your Majesty has been following the tradition of the Wei State and refining the weapons of gods and demons to increase the power of the royal family."

"Of course I know this. The birth of the God and Demon Weapon caused a sensation back then. Many warriors from various countries came to Daliang and were killed by my father in one fell swoop, which caused dissatisfaction among many people." Zhao Hongli saw that Huo Zhi deliberately avoided his question, and he was very sensible. Without asking any more questions, he took the opportunity to ask: "What happened now?"

It is no longer a secret that the Zhao family of the Wei State has been refining the weapons of gods and demons. Most of the martial arts forces in the Wei State know about it, let alone him in Daliang.

That day he saw the power of that weapon with his own eyes.

However, as far as he knew, the god-demon weapon had not been completely refined and was still partially incomplete.

The real weapons of gods and demons should be equivalent to the magic weapons before the collapse of heaven. They can be perfectly mastered by their royal family with the destiny of the country, and they are truly great weapons.

It is a pity that in order to deal with the Palace Master of Chihe Palace in Chu State, this divine and demonic weapon was used by my father as a bargaining chip with the Bi Daoshou of the Zhengyi Sect at the expense of no longer refining the divine and demonic weapon. It's time for Bi Dao to take action.

After Zheng Yimen Bi Lingjun used the God and Demon Weapon to repel the Chihe Palace Master, the God and Demon Weapon disappeared from everyone's sight, and no news about this object was heard again.

There are rumors among the people that the God and Demon Weapon has been sealed by Bi Lingjun and is under her supervision.

Wei's century-old plan collapsed halfway.

It was hard for Zhao Hongli to imagine that his father, Emperor Jian'an, would restart the refining of the gods and demons weapons under such circumstances.

Huo Zhi nodded and said: "There are some changes. I can tell His Highness that we are sure that Your Majesty has restarted refining the God and Demon Weapons."

"What about the seal that Bi Daoshou blessed on the God and Demon Weapon?" Zhao Hongli asked: "Father, if the emperor restarts, can Bi Daoshou not know about it all the time?"

Huo Zhi sighed, looked at Zhao Hongli and said: "Your Majesty, the world is full of wonders. Even though Your Majesty does not have the world-beating military power of other warriors, his imperial skills are first-rate and he can mobilize countless skilled craftsmen. A Human power is limited, but ten people, hundreds, or thousands of people will always find a solution.”

"In fact, Your Majesty, it took him several years to find a way to continue refining the weapons of gods and demons without breaking the seal, and he easily deceived everyone."

King Zhao Hongli of Thailand was shocked.

When he heard the news, it was as if his father, Emperor Jian'an, stood in front of him and slapped him.

Tell him that this is the emperor's method of hiding things from the sky.

The cover-up methods he used to fight for the crown prince were not even worthy of carrying his shoes in front of him.

However, this feeling is fleeting.

On the contrary, Zhao Hongli became more competitive.

It is said that a tiger father has no dog son. If my father could do it, if I were in his position, I would definitely be able to do it, or even do it better than him.

The reason why he is not doing things carefully now is because his father did not give him the position of crown prince and he does not have enough resources around him.

Thai King Zhao Hongli sat up straight and said, "Then what does this have to do with the seventh brother?"

Huo Zhi stared at the fourth prince and smiled without saying a word.

Thai King Zhao Hongli's mind changed rapidly, and he quickly thought of something: "Master Huo, do you mean to spread this news and then frame it for your seventh brother?"

"Your Highness is wise!" Huo Zhi cupped his hands, complimented with a smile on his face, and continued: "Concubine Yuan is from the Yunhua Sect. The sect is very powerful and has high hopes for King Rui. And Concubine Yuan It is a well-known fact in the palace that the empress is very popular with His Majesty. If we really want to overthrow King Rui, I am afraid it will not be that easy."

Huo Zhi picked up the teacup, filled a cup of tea, and said, "But what if the Seventh Prince leaks the story of the God-Demon Weapon and intends to force His Majesty to abdicate?"

"Hiss..." The fourth prince took a breath of cold air.

Huo Zhi took a sip of tea and said: "The matter of the God and Demon Weapon is very important to His Majesty. If it is leaked, Long Yan will be furious. By then, King Rui will not be able to save it even if he has a great background."

At some point a beetle as big as a fingernail flew on the table.

Huo Zhi reached out and flicked the beetle away, and Youyou said: "At this point, His Highness King Rui will be the first to be eliminated, and we can concentrate on dealing with King Wu."

King Zhao Hongli of Thailand was silent after hearing this.

Although the imperial family is the most ruthless and the fight for the throne has always been cruel and ruthless, when he really wanted to experience it himself, there was a trace of hesitation in his heart.

Because he knew that once he did this, King Zhirui would die.

At the same time, it was equivalent to thoroughly planning the situation that my father had finally built up and putting him on the fire.

From now on, no matter whether they succeed or not, he and King Rui will fight to the death.

Can you bear such consequences?

But if you want to get the throne, this is a step you must take.

Zhao Hongli picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea to cover up the struggling emotions in his heart.

After a while, he seemed to have made up his mind, put down the tea cup and said: "Master Huo is indeed the queen of General Huo, and he has a lot of troubles in his chest. But overthrowing King Rui is just the beginning. There will be King Wu behind him. It is said that there is a leader in the world beside him." A martial artist of ten is not that easy to deal with."

Huo Zhi knew that the fourth prince Zhao Hongli was already interested and said: "Compared to King Rui, King Wu has a big disadvantage."

"What disadvantage?"

"He's not in Daliang."

The fourth prince Zhao Hongli raised his head and looked at Huo Zhi.

Huo Zhi explained: "After eradicating King Rui, and then find a way to confirm your title, Your Highness can justifiably mobilize General Feng and our Huo family's troops, which is conservatively estimated to be 30 troops. King Wu's division is unknown, We will definitely be defeated militarily. As for the leader of the Ming Cult, the Sword Making Villa standing behind us also has a way to deal with him."

"As far as I know, Zhujian Villa is only a second-rate martial arts force. Even if it has developed rapidly in recent years, it is not capable of dealing with the top ten martial arts in the world, right?" Fourth Prince Zhao Hongli's eyes moved slightly, and he asked with deep meaning.

"Your Highness may not know something. The Sword Making Villa is no longer the original Sword Making Villa. Their strength is far beyond His Highness's imagination. Otherwise, our Huo family would not have spent so much effort on them over the years."

The fourth prince Zhao Hong paused for a moment. Seeing Huo Zhi's determined look, the last trace of doubt in his heart was eliminated. He said with a smile: "Young Master Huo has considered it so carefully. It would be too unreasonable for me to remain indecisive."

He picked up his teacup.

Huo Zhi understood and also picked up the teacup.

The two tea cups touched each other lightly, and then each drank a gulp, then looked at each other and laughed.

"By the way, has there been any response from Miss Huo recently?" Fourth Prince Zhao Hongli asked.

Huo Zhi knew the meaning of the fourth prince Zhao Hongli's words, so he hesitated and said, "Your Highness didn't tell me, but I forgot about it. I wonder if Your Highness will be free tomorrow?"

"I have been fine recently." "That's right. I'll bring my sister-in-law over tomorrow to bother His Highness. I wonder if His Highness will welcome her?"

The fourth prince looked happy and said, "I welcome you most."

He is getting closer and closer to the Huo family, and there are many secrets involved between them.

Just because of the current relationship, the fourth prince Zhao Hongli has always been unsure. He feels that the relationship with the Huo family must be stronger.

The best way is to marry. If the marriage fails, it is best to have a blood tie between the two parties to strengthen the connection between them.

Obviously Huo Zhi also knew what the fourth prince Zhao Hongli was thinking.

He also had the same concerns as Zhao Hongli.

So after returning from the Thai Prince's Palace, Huo Zhi found Huo Xianshui without stopping.

At this time, Huo Xianshui was immersed in practicing. She was wearing a black tight-fitting training suit, which perfectly highlighted her graceful figure, and her long legs were even more beautiful.

"Xiao Shui, come here. Second brother has something to tell you."

Hearing Huo Zhi's call, Huo Xianshui hurriedly stopped what he was doing and walked over: "Second brother, did you call me?"

Huo Zhi said straight to the point: "Get dressed up tomorrow and come with me to the Prince of Thailand's Palace."

Huo Xianshui frowned and said with a bit of dissatisfaction: "Second brother, haven't I told you many times that I am not interested in people from the royal family."

She was about to lose her temper, but what Huo Zhi said next made her stand on the spot.

"The longevity of our ancestors is about to run out."

Seeing Huo Xianshui's pretty face turning pale, Huo Zhi couldn't bear it. He couldn't help but let out a long sigh and said: "You know what the death of our ancestor means to our Huo family. My eldest brother and father did not miss this either." Ben busy, you are no longer a child, it’s time to contribute to the family.”

Huo Xianshui's face turned a little ugly.

"We missed King Wu because of the Korean assassins before, but this time we must stabilize the King of Thailand, and we must support him as a dragon. My father and I both agreed that the King of Thailand seems to be quite resourceful, but in fact he is brave and foolhardy. He ascended to the throne. The position is of great benefit to us.”

After a long time, Huo Xianshui suddenly sneered, raised his head and said, "Okay, I will go with you to see His Royal Highness the King of Thailand tomorrow, but if you want to go further, I will not agree."

"Of course you don't need to say more. I know the importance of your second brother."

Huo Xianshui's tone gradually became colder: "Second brother, is there anything else going on? If nothing happens, I will continue to practice."

"You go ahead and practice. I will ask my servant to prepare Bazhen soup for you. It will be good for you to practice your Qi."

Huo Xianshui didn't respond, and there were only fists and wind blowing in the courtyard.

Huo Zhi knew that Huo Xianshui was unhappy, so he stopped disturbing him and left silently.

On the second day, Huo Xianguo dressed up and went to Prince Tai's Mansion with Huo Zhi.

Not long after that, news came out in Daliang City that Emperor Jian'an had broken his promise and secretly refined the weapons of gods and demons.

The matter of the gods and demons' weapons that had been silent for a long time reappeared in everyone's sight.

This matter has even alarmed the Zhengyimen, making Emperor Jian'an furious.

"A rebellious son, really a rebellious son."

In the Palace of Wei and Qianqing, the Jian'an Emperor Zhao Meixu glared at the man in front of him with a murderous look on his face.

"Father, you are wronged, you are wronged." Zhao Hongsheng, the seventh prince of King Rui, knelt in the main hall, shaking like chaff: "It's really not me."

"At this level, you still want to quibble?" Emperor Jian'an's face became extremely gloomy: "Now the whole Liang Dynasty is saying that I am dishonest, arrogant, secretly refining weapons of gods and demons, and that I am a treacherous villain. , and some even said that I am not worthy of my position and should abdicate in favor of others."

"Do you know which one you want me to give way to?"

The Seventh Prince Zhao Hongsheng lay on the ground without saying a word.

Emperor Jian'an roared angrily: "Let me give way to you, His Highness Prince Rui, who has read all the books of sages!"

"Ah!" The Seventh Prince Zhao Hongsheng was so frightened that he felt like he was dead: "Father, my son doesn't know, there must be some villain who framed my son."

Emperor Jian'an snorted coldly: "At this point, you still don't admit it? Wang Aiqing, tell me what you found."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Above the main hall, a Dali Temple official wearing a splendid official uniform stood up and said: "The humble position has been confirmed after many investigations. This news came from Prince Rui's palace, and the source was a Confucian master under Prince Rui's family. When we went to arrest him, this man refused to plead guilty, and finally shouted "Long live King Rui" and cut off his heart and died in front of everyone."

"Impossible." Zhao Hongsheng, the seventh prince, defended: "Master Chen is full of knowledge and would never do such a treasonous and unethical thing. There must be a misunderstanding in this, father. I ask my father to take a closer look."

Emperor Jian'an closed his eyes slightly, and after a long time he said: "Eunuch Feng, which part of Wei is more suitable for King Rui to establish a vassal state at the moment."

Feng Dabao hurriedly stood up and said: "Reporting to your Majesty, Beiyuan County is now rich in products and is a geomantic treasure land."

"Then let Prince Rui take control of Fanbeiyuan County from now on."

"Yes, the slave obeys."

As for the vassal, it means being completely eliminated.

The Seventh Prince Zhao Hongsheng stood up and protested: "Father, there must be a misunderstanding here. There must be a misunderstanding. My son is innocent and he will never do such a thing, Father!"

However, Emperor Jian'an remained unmoved no matter how the seventh prince explained, and he waved his sleeves and left the hall.

Other ministers did not dare to stay for a long time and left separately.

He was left alone in the main hall crying and screaming for injustice.

In the Thai palace, it was learned that the seventh prince Zhao Hongsheng had been expelled from the capital, and the fourth prince Zhao Hongli and Huo Zhi celebrated.

"Beiyuan County is a bitter and cold place. Now King Rui will never recover. Even if Concubine Yuan concubine pleads for mercy later, it will not help." Huo Zhi said happily: "Prince Rui is really as we expected. Like, out!"

"This is all due to you, Mr. Huo. I never thought that you would place such a special dead man in Prince Rui's Mansion so early." The fourth prince Zhao Hongli sighed and said, "Otherwise, everything would not have gone so smoothly. .”

"Hahaha, these are just appetizers." Huo Zhi said with a solemn expression: "His Majesty will definitely be exhausted when facing Zhengyimen. We must be prepared for the next step. One is for Your Majesty, and the other is for King Wu cannot tolerate any mistakes, otherwise..."

The fourth prince Zhao Hongli's face also became serious. He knew that he was on the pirate ship now and could not get off, so he opened his bow without any arrow to turn back.
