Douluo: Man is in peerless world, resurrecting angel

Chapter 276 Xu Tianran wants to have his own bear biscuits

A piece of news jumped from the southern seaside over the Jingyang Mountains, across the fertile plains, and arrived in Mingdu.

Prince Regent's House, Tea Room.

"Former Crown Prince Xu He?"

Xu Tianran's gloomy eyes raised slightly, and this name brought back bad memories for him.

"What's wrong with this guy?"

Zhong Liwu asked at the same time, putting the tea utensil at hand under his nose and sniffing.

Xu Tianran slowly explained.

Many years ago, Xu Tianran's father was not the Emperor of the Sun and Moon, but at that time, Xu Tianran's father was just like Xu Tianran now, ambitious and unscrupulous.

The emperor at that time had few heirs and gave birth to seven daughters in a row. At that time, Xu Tianran's father still thought that he would succeed to the throne as the emperor's younger brother in the future.

Because Xu Tianran's father was the best and most powerful prince at the time, and at the same time, it was not a woman's turn to take the position of Emperor of the Sun and Moon.

Until the old emperor was forty-eight years old, he had a son.

The old emperor couldn't bear it anymore, so he immediately named him Xu He and made him the prince.

After all, the current emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire is He Caitou's uncle.

Xu Tianran's father was naturally dissatisfied when he found out.

So when Prince Xu He was nine years old, Xu Tianran's father suddenly led his army to Mingdu and flanked the Qing emperor.

After a series of great purges, Xu Tianran's father assumed the position of emperor with an iron fist as the sole heir to the royal family.

It was announced that the emperor, queen and three unmarried princesses died suddenly of "food poisoning".

but……

Prince Xu He,

On the contrary, it has never been found.

The former prince became a source of worry for Xu Tianran's father.

It's not that I'm afraid of him, it's just that he looks disgusting.

"Prince Regent, don't you think this so-called Prince Xu He is fake?"

Zhong Liwu said calmly:

"Although the nobles of Haiyue City have expressed their support, they are talking empty words. This kind of statement is also deceiving the ignorant people."

"Of course I know." Xu Tianran gently stroked the paper with his fingers, "Even if it is true, is there anyone else in Mingdu who will follow Xu He and rebel?"

Xu Tianran's father had been on the throne for so many years, and there had been a purge that year. How could anyone be so stupidly loyal to Xu He anymore?

"However, Xu He's identity is not recognized, and it is said to the outside world that it was a trick directed and performed by Xue Bei." Xu Tianran said.

"The key is to look at the Emperor Dragon Soul Mentor Group." Zhong Liwu looked at the regent, "According to the spies, Xue Bei has a close relationship with Chi Douluo. I plan to follow him."

Xu Tianran smiled calmly. Chi Douluo could be said to be a serious problem for the Holy Spirit Sect. Last time in the Mingdu Mountains, Ye Xishui was seriously injured.

"can."

The matter was settled in a few words, and the powerful never had to discuss it with others.

Xu Tianran talked about another thing and said, "Master, I wonder if the elixir is ready?"

Ye Xishui knows how to refine human elixirs, and Zhong Liwu can do the same.

"It's still missing the main ingredient."

When Zhong Liwu heard Xu Tianran ask about this matter, a wicked smile appeared on his face, "I just don't know which highness has this blessing."

The method of human elixir requires people to combine heavenly materials and earthly treasures to refine the elixir, which can not only replenish vitality, but also improve one's own cultivation qualifications.

However, this person is not chosen casually, but must be a blood relative.

Asking for Rendan is tantamount to forcing people to kill their relatives.

But Xu Tianran didn't care at all. Several figures appeared in his mind, but he said: "I wonder if the National Master has anything to recommend?"

Zhong Liwu tried jokingly: "The closer the relationship is with the person Rendan needs, the better. Why don't you let Your Majesty come and make this main medicine?"

Emperor of the Sun and Moon: ...Okay, okay, father is kind and son is filial, right?

Xu Tianran waved his hand. Although he was ambitious, he was not a madman. He absolutely did not want to do such a treasonous thing as patricide.

"No." Xu Tianran refused.

"That's Xu Tianhe. He and His Highness the Regent are cousins ​​by blood, which can be considered a great complement."

Zhong Liwu said another name.

Xu Tianran was a little moved, but after feeling the feeling of emptiness in his lower body, his face turned dark.

Damn...

If you still have...

"No." Xu Tianran still refused.

"Ok?"

Zhongli and Wuxin said that you were playing with me and wanted me to refer to it, even if you said two things in a row, you wouldn't be killed.

"If Your Highness is kind-hearted, then use some other tonics. Human elixir is not suitable for Your Highness."

Zhongliwu said sarcastically.

"None of them are suitable." Xu Tianran said, another person flashed in his mind.

Xu Tianzhen.

"His Majesty is already old, and it is indeed filial piety for the Regent to want him to enjoy his old age.

But although Xu Tianhe and the regent were cousins, he was lazy in cultivation and had noble blood.

This Xiaoyao Prince,

It is a good material for making a human elixir. "

Xu Tianran stared at Zhong Liwu, "He can't do it precisely because his cultivation level is not high and his bloodline is noble."

Although Zhong Liwu is an evil soul master who has cultivated himself to be neither human nor ghost, but from a physiological point of view, Zhong Liwu is still a healthy person, so he does not understand Xu Tianran's difficulties at all.

Of course, Zhong Liwu was also an honest man, and he didn't think at all about Xu Tianran having to find someone to borrow seeds when he needed the prince.

"Xu Tianzhen doesn't know what to do?"

"Princess Xu Tianzhen, doesn't His Highness usually dote on her the most?" Zhong Liwu couldn't say he was surprised.

The emperor's royal family was ruthless, but Xu Tianran was usually nice to Xu Tianzhen, so Zhong Liwu wouldn't mention the little princess at all just now.

I didn't expect that Xu Tianran did.

"I really can't bear to part with it," Xu Tianran said, "It's just that among the people with a similar bloodline to me, she is the only one who makes medicine, so it won't have any major changes to my future plans."

Xu Tianran is now the regent, and will almost certainly be the emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire in the future.

Therefore, Xu Tianran considers things from a long-term perspective.

Patricide and regicide are of no help to Xu Tianran. He is now the regent, almost like the emperor. Xu Tianran is now in charge of the Sun and Moon Empire.

On the contrary, if Xu Tianran really did this, he would give others an excuse if the incident came to light.

As for Xu Tianhe, if Xu Tianran becomes emperor in the future, he will definitely need to find a successor.

Before Xue Bei traveled through time, someone joked that I was barren and my family had no throne to inherit.

But the Xu Tianran family really wanted someone to inherit the throne of the Sun and Moon Empire and the empire that Xu Tianran had built.

If the emperor has no heirs, his later years will inevitably be filled with turmoil between the government and the public.

So no matter who the queen is, Xu Tianhe will be the seed bank in the future.

It won’t be too late to kill him then.

The only person left who has a similar bloodline to Xu Tianran is Xu Tiantian.

Although Xu Tianran usually dotes on her and can tolerate this little princess's unruly and willful ways, in the final analysis, she is just that.

To put it nicely, Xu Tianran dotes on Princess Xu Tianzhen just because Xu Tianran wants to feel the blood and family affection for a while. It is no different from raising a cat or a dog.

All provide emotional value.

"This is your first time making alchemy. Your Highness, there is no need to be impatient. Just choose something similar."

Zhong Liwu looked at Xu Tianran's expression and knew what he was thinking, and said: "Princess Xu Tianzhen, Your Highness should keep it."

Zhong Liwu said this not because he wanted to keep Xu Tianzhen, but because this was his first time refining human elixir. Although this method was proven to be feasible, it was still the first time for Zhong Liwu to use it.

If the refining is not done well, Xu Tianzhen is thrown into the elixir furnace and cannot be saved.

What would Xu Tianran think?

I used my dearest sister to practice for you, but the result was a furnace of dregs?

Although it remains to be verified whether she is the closest sister, Zhong Liwu can still imagine Xu Tianran's angry look, and the Holy Spirit Sect may be suppressed by Xu Tianran again.

"Yeah." Xu Tianran was reluctant at first, but now Zhong Liwu spoke, so he naturally borrowed the money from Poxiadonkey.

"Then let's choose Tiancan County Lord."

Since he no longer paid so much attention to the distance of his bloodline, Xu Tianran quickly decided on a candidate.

"Yeah." Zhong Liwu nodded.

The mayor of Tiancan County is Xu Tianran's sister, but the relationship is a bit distant.

Although they are considered a member of the royal family in normal times, they are high-ranking in the eyes of common people, and their family background is extraordinary in the eyes of nobles, but here in Xu Tianran, it is just a matter of words.

……

……

The outskirts of Mingdu.

Although Mingdu is a metropolis with soul-guiding technology, the suburbs should be wilderness, just wilderness.

Although it is a cold winter day, the people who forage in the fields still have to make a living.

Lao Huang is such a common man. Although he lives at the foot of the emperor, he still does not live well. Early in the winter, he has to carry a pole to the mountains outside the city to pick wild vegetables. It is so painful.

It was still dark, so Lao Huang took a puff of smoke and felt a little warmer, so he walked to the mountainside to pick wild vegetables.

There was a war between the Imperial Front and Douluo Continent. After the war, the entire price of goods went up. This was all Huang could do to support his family.

Lao Huang doesn't understand those war things, he just hopes that this day will get better soon.

It was getting brighter and there were more people in this mountain area. Old Huang straightened up and took a look, oh, the neighbors are all here.

In this Ming capital, not everyone is a nobleman, most of them are ordinary people who cannot afford to buy vegetables and can only go to the wild to pick them.

"It's hard. It's hard."

Lao Huang packed up his things and did not go down the mountain. The warm winter sun came out, so he squatted down for a while to rest.

Why not sit down?

There was snow on the ground and my pants were wet.

Lao Huang thought, since he is getting old anyway, and there is no servant of the younger generation, so he is alone, and he is not in a hurry to go home.

Suddenly there was a sound of horses whining and neighing.

The neighborhood leaders ran down the hill one by one in fright.

Lao Huang was also shocked. It turned out that the nobles from Mingdu came out to hunt.

Soul masters in Mingdu generally don't do this. Only those idle aristocratic children will imitate what they did in Douluo Continent, riding horses and hunting with bows.

Alas, noble people really have a lot of trouble.

Anyway, with Lao Huang's knowledge, he didn't understand what fun it was to ride a horse and hold a bow in this winter.

If it were him, he would stay at home and never come out.

Only when they got closer did Lao Huang see the appearance of these noble children.

Most of the servants look the same, they are groveling, and the leader, a man and a woman, is the master.

The man is young and handsome, dressed luxuriously, and the woman has a peach-shaped face, beautiful in the sky and beautiful in the country.

Lao Huang carried the pole, lowered his head and lowered his eyebrows to avoid them.

It turns out that these ordinary people have always had innate skills, which made the nobles subconsciously ignore them.

But this time, Lao Huang didn't know what was going on, but he was stopped by this noble man.

worse.

Lao Huang thought, he stopped where he was, neither walking nor kneeling.

"come over."

said the man.

Lao Huang sighed, lowered his head and walked a few steps.

"Whoosh-"

An arrow was stuck in the ground, just a few steps in front of Old Huang.

"This..." Lao Huang was dumbfounded. How dare the Emperor dare to commit murder under his feet?

"Old man, it's winter and there's no prey out there. My sister finally came out to experience hunting today. She can't let the fun be spoiled, can she?"

The man smiled at Old Huang, showing his big white teeth, which made Old Huang dizzy.

"Villain, villain..." Old Huang couldn't say anything for a long time.

"Old man, just be the prey and play with us." The man looked at Old Huang and threw out a few more gold soul coins.

Lao Huang stayed on the spot, unresponsive, and did not dare to bend down to pick up the money.

The woman shot an arrow at Old Huang, and it landed tremblingly next to Old Huang.

"Run! Old man!" the woman cackled.

He didn't dare to pick up the gold soul coins on the ground, and he didn't dare to take the wild vegetables carried on the pole, so he ran away.

"Wrap it with a cloth, it won't kill anyone if you shoot it."

The man wanted to wrap the arrowheads in the woman's quiver with cloth, but the woman dodged him.

"I have my own sense of proportion."

As she spoke, the woman laughed loudly, mounted her horse as if teasing her, and shot an arrow at Old Huang crookedly.

"It's my first time hunting today, and I'm taking people as prey. It's novel! It's really novel!"

The servants of the woman's family, one after another, chased the county master's horse, fearing that their master would fall.

The man was not upset and chased the county lord with his horse laughing loudly.

There were arrows flying behind him. Old Huang was panting heavily and exerting his strength. Sweat was pouring from his forehead in the winter.

But he was still tired from running. As an old man, he had no strength to compete with the horse, so his speed slowed down.

The county master's archery skills are a mystery. Lao Huang can't shoot accurately. I don't know if she deliberately misses the shot, or if she is just a master of strokes.

Although the arrow missed, as soon as Lao Huang slowed down, the county leader did not rein in the horse's reins. With a snap, the horse and the man collided directly with each other.

Lao Huang felt like he was flying into the sky, and then landed heavily on the ground. He felt a pain in his chest with a click, and almost fainted.

"County Lord!"

The horse was fine, but the county master's riding skills weren't very good and he fell on the ground.

A nobleman like the county master fell off his horse, which frightened Old Huang.

The man led the horse's head over, and the county lord also got up from the ground.

"it's okay no problem."

The county leader fell on the ground, but didn't care. He waved his hand and looked at Lao Huang on the ground, "Hey, old man, why did you slow down suddenly?"

At this time, Lao Huang was gasping for breath with pain in his chest. He was afraid that a few bones were broken and he did not speak.

"That's all." The county master threw out a bag of gold soul coins from the soul guide. There were probably as many as a hundred gold soul coins. "These are for you. You really won't have a lot of fun."

"Thank you...thank you."

Lao Huang endured the pain and slowly huddled up from the ground, making a kowtow gesture.

"gone."

A group of people got on their horses and went to have fun elsewhere.

Lao Huang's nose and tears froze together. He looked at the bag of gold soul coins and smiled happily, but a mouthful of blood foam came out of his throat.

Ignoring the wild vegetable pole, Lao Huang carried the bag with the gold soul coins and limped toward Mingdu, leaning on a tree branch.

Without taking two steps, he fell to the snow with a thud and never got up again.
