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

Chapter 208 It’s time for King Wu to return to Daliang
"Mr. Huo, what do you plan to do next when we take our father's step forward?" the fourth prince Zhao Hongli asked Huo Zhi.

"Does Your Highness know how to drive away wolves and swallow tigers?"

"Appreciate further details."

"Speaking of which, when I saw His Majesty refining the weapons of gods and demons, the most nervous person was the Zhengyi Sect." Huo Zhi said eloquently: "I am afraid they have been dissatisfied with Your Majesty for a long time and intend to support the new monarch. Their goals are the same as His Highness's. Natural consistency.”

"That's right." The fourth prince Zhao Hongli immediately reacted and said excitedly: "I remember that your ancestor of the Huo family has a certain status in the Zhengyi sect and has close friendship with many elders in the sect. I wonder if you can bridge the gap for me. Wire?"

Huo Zhi shook his head.

The fourth prince's face immediately turned cold: "Why, aren't your Huo family even willing to put in this little effort?"

Huo Zhi said with a smile: "I mean there is no need. The ancestor has already said hello, and the elders of the Zhengyi sect will assist His Highness soon."

"That's great. I didn't expect Mr. Huo to be so thoughtful." The fourth prince Zhao Hongli was immediately overjoyed. He noticed something in Huo Zhi's words and asked: "Since the elders of the Zhengyi Sect will assist me, then Where is Bi Daoshou? She is a martial artist at the ninth level of martial arts, so it will be safer to take action with her."

Huo Zhi said disapprovingly: "This time, more than half of the elders in the main sect will help. It's just a matter of forcing His Majesty. There is no need for Master Bi to take action."

As he spoke, Huo Zhi's eyes moved slightly, and when he saw that the fourth prince Zhao Hongli didn't ask any more questions after hearing this, the strange look gradually dissipated.

In fact, the ancestor said in a letter that Bi Lingjun, the master of the first sect, had differences of opinion with the elders.

Bi Lingjun felt that he only needed to take back the God and Demon Weapons that were being forged, while the elders believed that not only should the God and Demon Weapons be taken back, but also Emperor Jian'an should be replaced once and for all.

The two sides couldn't come to an agreement, so the elders left Bi Lingjun aside, concealed the matter, and acted with them.

As long as you know the secrets here, it's not worth telling Zhao Hongli in detail.

He heard that there was something wrong with Bi Lingjun's practice and that Wei Guo Guo Yun needed to suppress it, but it was always difficult to determine whether it was true or not.

But now it seems that it is probably true.

Otherwise, there shouldn't have been such a big difference with the elders of Zhengyi Sect.

……

The Imperial Study Room of the Imperial Palace of the Wei Dynasty.

Emperor Jian'an Zhao Meixu pushed the door in with an angry look on his face.

Behind him, the palm eunuch Feng Dabao followed closely, then drove out many servants in the study and closed the door.

Only Emperor Jian'an Zhao Meixu and Feng Dabao were left in the imperial study.

Emperor Jian'an paused, turned to look at Feng Dabao behind him and asked, "Have you found out? Who is it?"

Although his tone was a bit chilly at this time, the anger in the hall had subsided a lot, and the whole person seemed to have regained his senses.

"Your Majesty, forgive me. I am incompetent. I hope your Majesty will give me some more time." Faced with Emperor Jian'an's question, Feng Dabao showed a bit of panic and doubt on his face. He almost knelt on the ground in response, without even turning his head. Dare to lift.

"Three days, I only give you three days. If nothing is found out in three days, you can come and see me." There was no emotion in Emperor Jian'an's tone, as if he was talking about something insignificant.

But when it fell into Feng Dabao's ears, it was like falling into an ice cellar.

He had followed Emperor Jian'an before he ascended to Dabao. Over the past few decades, he had already seen the cold temperament of the Emperor of Wei before him.

If I don't have any clues for three days, I really have to raise my head to see him.

Feng Dabao quickly agreed: "I obey the order."

This time, what happened to the Seventh Prince was so strange that the rumors spread so fast that even the Imperial City Department had no time to react.

No matter the fourth prince or the seventh prince, the energy of the two of them is not enough to achieve this level. It is obvious that there are other people involved behind the scenes.

Jian'an Emperor Zhao Meixu continued: "In addition to finding out the driving force behind this, it is more important to find out how my refining of the God and Demon Weapon became known to outsiders."

"You should know that you and Chen Shangshu are handling it from beginning to end. Those craftsmen are all under your surveillance, and outsiders have no way of investigating."

"Now that the news has leaked, either there is something wrong with this group of people or you, the Imperial City Division, or the other party has used special means to sense the changes in the gods and demons' weapons."

"No matter which one, it is extremely disadvantageous for us. Moreover, the incident happened suddenly, and the other party was obviously prepared. I am worried that King Rui's matter is just the beginning."

"The slave understands."

Feng Dabao was kneeling on the ground, with layers of cold sweat on his forehead. He felt as if a dark cloud was rolling in from the sky, and a storm was brewing inside.

Emperor Jian'an Zhao Meixu glanced at Feng Dabao and said, "Who do you think will benefit the most if the seventh prince is expelled from Daliang?"

Feng Dabao already had the answer in his mind, but he didn't dare to say it in front of Emperor Jian'an. He had a troubled look on his face and stammered: "Slave... I am stupid and can't figure out... who will benefit the most."

"Hmph, are you afraid to say it or you really don't know?" Emperor Jian'an glanced at Feng Dabao and said with a sneer.

Feng Dabao pressed his forehead tightly against the ground, dripping with cold sweat and said: "Report to your Majesty, I really don't know."

Jian'an Emperor Zhao Meixu sat on the throne and said word by word: "I heard that the fourth child's relationship with the Huo family is very secret. Is this possible?"

Feng Dabao replied: "That's true. The King of Thailand seems to have a good impression of Miss Huo. He has a deep love for her and has never given up."

"Hmph, deep love and righteousness are false, but wanting my throne is true, right?"

Reminiscent of the fact that the Seventh Prince took the lead in attacking before, the fight between the two officially moved from secret to the stage.

Apparently the fourth prince had a better move and kicked out the seventh prince first.

Even if others didn't say anything, Emperor Jian'an still saw everything.

The battle for the throne is not as gentle and courteous as treating guests to a meal, but a thorny road full of blood and cruelty, and someone is destined to pay the price.

The Seventh Prince was not as skilled as others, so he naturally pushed him away from Daliang.

But in the eyes of Emperor Jian'an, these were nothing but trivial matters.

What really concerned him was the God-Demon Weapon.

This is a major event related to whether the royal family is strong or not, and whether the Zhao family can survive in Wei.

He had to pull himself together.

This time, the gods and demons' weapons have become more perfect after their polishing and refining, but they are still far from perfect.

This process can take at least three or four years and can take up to ten or 20 years.

It takes a long time, but as long as you keep doing it, you can still see hope.

Jian'an Emperor Zhao Mixu also knew that it was unrealistic to keep it secret for so long, but he spent so much effort to leak it so quickly.

It was something his own sons had done. How could he not be angry or furious?
At this time, for some reason, Emperor Jian'an suddenly thought of Zhao Hongming.

I just feel that he is a good son who can really take care of me.

Emperor Jian'an glanced at Feng Dabao, who was lying on the ground silently. He knew that there were many sensitive matters in the royal family and he couldn't say anything about it. He said in a gentle tone: "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Feng Dabao wiped the sweat on his forehead and said with thanks on his knees.

Now that the news about the God-Demon Weapon has leaked out, Zhengyimen and some martial arts forces will definitely ask him to give an explanation.

The crown prince position that he had been waiting for could just come in handy.

It's time for King Wu to return to Daliang!

He kept the fourth prince and the seventh prince in Daliang in order to let the former attract the attention of martial arts forces and gain treasure on them.

Zhao Hongming was far away in the fiefdom and was not noticed by the martial arts forces. If he succeeded to the throne later, he would be able to go into battle lightly, which would be of great benefit to the Wei royal family.Only with proper operation can we not only take advantage of the opportunity to survive this crisis safely, but also allow the future heirs to land safely.

Emperor Jian'an Zhao Meixu said: "Eunuch Feng, please draft an edict to summon King Wu back to Daliang."

Feng Dabao was shocked.

In these years, when he was with Emperor Jian'an, he heard Zhao Meixu mention more than once that he had the idea of ​​letting His Highness King Wu inherit the throne.

Is it finally time to take action?
Feng Dabao's expression was serious and he said sternly: "I obey the order."

a few days later.

Zhao Hongming, who was thousands of miles away from Daliang, was unaware of the series of major events happening in the capital at this time.

These days, he has been concentrating on martial arts training.

After breaking through to the sixth level of martial arts, Zhao Hongming discovered that the combat methods he could now use were more mysterious than before.

To some extent, there is already a shadow of Xianwu.

The reason why Xianwu Gongfa is called Xianwu Gongfa is because it can condense the true meaning, and condensing the true meaning means efficient use of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which is several levels higher than the efficiency of the flow of true energy.

This is consistent with certain cultivation methods of ancient immortal ways.

According to the ultimate vision of those immortal martial arts techniques in the world, those who practice the immortal martial arts techniques to the highest level can truly achieve immortality through martial arts.

It's a pity that since the collapse of Heavenly Dao, no one has ever truly reached such a state, and no one has been able to confirm and verify the authenticity of these martial arts assumptions for thousands of years.

In the past, when Zhao Hongming had not yet broken through to the sixth level of Wu Dan, he had always had a vague understanding of these mysterious and mysterious concepts.

Now after breaking through, I feel the strangeness of controlling the wind and controlling the rainbow, and controlling things in light, and I realize the extraordinary power of Xianwu Kung Fu.

Even the Eight Desolations Eternal Age Kung, which is known as the "Health Preserving Kung Fu", is very impressive and is not as embarrassing as the world makes it out to be.

It was purely because they had some qualifications and could not improve in practice that they ruined the reputation of the Eight Desolations Immortality Kung Fu.

Tee, Tee, Tee.

There was a knock on the door outside the practice room.

Zhao Hongming, who was suspended in mid-air, opened his eyes and sensed Gao Yanshi standing outside the door.

He said softly: "What's the matter?"

Gao Yanshi said in a sharp voice: "Your Highness, something happened over there in Daliang."

"Huh?" Zhao Hongming had an idea, and the door to the practice room opened in response: "Come in and talk."

Gao Yanshi looked slightly startled and walked in quickly with his head lowered.

And just after he entered, the door to the practice room slammed shut, making him startled.

Fortunately, his mind has matured a lot and he didn't do anything rude.

Zhao Hongming finished his work, stood up with his hands tied and said: "What happened over there in Daliang that made you come here to report it in such a hurry?"

Gao Yanshi lowered his head and said, "It's about His Majesty and Prince Rui."

"My servant inquired about the news that His Majesty broke his promise and secretly refined the weapons of gods and demons in Daliang City a few days ago. People outside said that His Majesty was a villain who broke his word and was unworthy of his moral character, which aroused the dissatisfaction of many martial arts forces. "

Zhao Hongming was shocked and said in a low voice: "Did Lao Qi do this?"

"Back to Your Highness, I have verified it through various means in Dali Temple and found that it was done by a Confucian master in Prince Rui's residence. The news also leaked out from Prince Rui's residence."

"This Confucian master also chose to commit suicide during the pursuit."

"Suicide?" Zhao Hongming's face turned gloomy: "It seems that the matter is not that simple. How did my father handle it in the end?"

"When His Majesty found out, he was furious. In front of the civil and military officials of the court, he expelled Prince Rui from Daliang and ordered him to go to Beiyuan to become a vassal."

Zhao Hongming stood there thoughtfully.

In his opinion, the seventh prince would not do such a stupid thing.

Because once that kind of news was released, he couldn't get rid of the relationship at all. He plunged into the quagmire, angered Emperor Jian'an, and couldn't get any benefits.

As the saying goes, some people do the business of beheading, but no one does the business of losing money.

The Seventh Prince has studied the books of sages for so many years and would not make such a stupid mistake.

He could think of it, and so could Emperor Jian'an.

But in the face of the facts, the seventh prince could not retract his confession, and Emperor Jian'an could not protect him even if he wanted to. It was the best way to drive him away from Daliang and join the feudal clan.

After the seventh prince left Daliang, the fourth prince Zhao Hongli was the only prince left in Daliang.

He benefits the most.

Zhao Hongming had a vague feeling that Thai King Zhao Hongli had something to do with the seventh prince's matter.

He didn't feel it before, thinking that the royal family was at best unkind and unjust, with not much blood kinship.

Now competing for the position of prince, Tu Qiong saw the dagger, but he felt the cruelty of the competition between princes for the throne.

The kind without blood.

Compared to the quarrel between the fourth prince Zhao Hongli and the seventh prince Zhao Hongsheng, he was more concerned about Emperor Jian'an secretly forging weapons of gods and demons.

His father was really brave.

If he remembered correctly, after the battle between Bi Lingjun and the master of Chihe Palace, the God and Demon Weapon would be sealed.

Now Emperor Jian'an would rather continue to forge despite the name of treachery, which shows his obsession with the weapons of gods and demons and the enhancement of the royal power.

After this matter was exposed, both the main sect and other martial arts forces were afraid that they would have objections to Emperor Jian'an and ask him to give an explanation.

I just don’t know what means Emperor Jian’an will use to break this situation.

Zhao Hongming did not think about it any further.

After all, he was thousands of miles away from Daliang, so he couldn't participate in these things, and it didn't do him any good.

He would not comment as long as it does not affect him for the time being.

"Is there anything else?" Zhao Hongming said casually.

Gao Yanshi shook his head and said, "No more."

"Continue to pay attention to the situation in Daliang, and let me know if there are any changes."

"The slave obeys."

Gao Yanshi did not stay in the practice room any longer.

However, he had not left for a long time before he left and returned again, saying hurriedly: "Your Highness, your Majesty's edict has been delivered!"

Zhao Hongming looked puzzled.

Emperor Jian'an sent him an edict at this time. What was the purpose?
