With magical powers, I can quietly meditate on sutras for hundreds of years and become an immortal.

Chapter 97 The end of an era
  In the eleventh year of Shengong, it is the third day of the first lunar month.

This was an ordinary day.

But from then on, it became no longer ordinary.

on this day.

The empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty completely withdrew from the stage of history.

She has been in power for thirty years.

He once saved the country from danger and helped the building to collapse.

She fights externally and changes internally.

She slashed and removed the carrion.

To revive an empire that had long been in decay.

no doubt.

In her life, her merits far outweighed her faults.

But talking about all this now is meaningless.

Zhao Qing's life as emperor has ended.

Although many people find it difficult to understand and accept it.

However, this is an indisputable fact.

All I can do now is mourn her passing.

As for the rest of the merits and demerits.

Let’s leave it to future generations to comment.

It started to rain lightly in the capital and the sky was hazy.

The entire city has been under martial law for a long time and is controlled by the forbidden troops in the city.

Every household also spontaneously hangs white silk silk, which is a piece of plain silk.

A heavy bell sounded from the temple in the city.

Penetrating the rain curtain and falling into my heart.

Holding an umbrella, walking on the street.

Li Zhen looked calm and indifferent.

What is covered up are thoughts that are difficult to sort out for a while.

It’s not that you can’t accept someone’s death.

The laws of heaven are impermanent, and life and death are determined by destiny.

If you are born in this world and do not live forever, everyone will die.

He has always looked at the world so plainly.

The same is true, treating the life, old age, illness and death of all those who are familiar with him in a distant manner.

However, what puzzled him was.

What kind of change happened.

Will let an emperor of the current overlord country who has become a great master of martial arts.

At such an age that should be the peak of spring and autumn.

Suddenly, he died.

If there is nothing fishy in it.

Li Zhen probably wouldn't believe it.

Assassination?

impossible.

No one in the world could assassinate Zhao Qing without alerting him and Zhao Shenyue.

Even if her strength is promoted by national luck, she is a little bit watery.

And apart from this only external factor, there is only one possibility left.

This is most likely a scene she directed and acted in!

as to its purpose.
  "Ha ha."

"Using your body as bait is a good move."

"However, I want to see what kind of big fish you and Zhao Shenyue are fishing for."

The fog in my mind cleared little by little.

Recall that in recent years, Zhao Qing frequently went to Xianming alone to find out about Zhao Shenyue.

Although I don't know what her purpose is.

But Li Zhen is basically certain.

Zhao Qing herself is definitely not dead.

However, her status as the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

It seems uncertain whether he can be brought back to life again.

And maybe, this might not be her original purpose.

After so many years, the emperor got tired of it.

I want to take advantage of this opportunity and fake my death to escape.

Are you ready to change your identity and your life?
  Judging from Li Zhen's many years of acquaintance with Zhao Qing and his understanding of her.

This unconventional woman.

It is really possible to do such a thing!

"Tsk!"

"You can't really let me get it right!"

A strange color appeared on Li Zhen's face.

The more I think about it, the more it sounds right to me.

After being said by Zi Zi just now, the thoughts that made me a little dizzy gradually became clearer.

His steps were a little faster and he walked towards the palace.

After the news of the death of the Empress of the Zhou Dynasty came out, the palace's response was swift.

First, the palace was sealed off and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

Then the imperial army was mobilized and the capital was under martial law.

Finally, it was urgently announced that King Anping had arrived in Beijing.

Before he returned to Beijing, all affairs in the capital were suspended.

This step by step. Who would believe it if Zhao Qing had not made arrangements in advance?

Combine these.

Li Zhen believed that his guess was getting closer to the truth.

The whole day today was full of accidents.

The news of the death of the Great Zhou Empress was surprising enough.

However, Li Zhen was the highest in the palace and could see farthest.

He met another person who was beyond his expectation.

Ji Donglai, whom I haven't seen for a long time.

This old man wanders around the world, collecting stories from everywhere.

Now, it's actually collected in the palace?

Li Zhen looked at him with a strange look.

"Boy Li, what's that look in your eyes!"

"I'm telling you, don't think blindly."

Ji Donglai came to Li Zhen's side, his tone a little wary.

Then, he asked with a somewhat strange expression:

"Are you here to see the fun too?"

"lively!"

Li Zhen shook his head.

If someone else dies, there will definitely be something to eat, which is quite a lively event.

But the emperor died.

It would be really lively if the palace was bustling.

"Hey, it seems like you don't know yet."

Ji Donglai smiled mysteriously.

Without waiting for Li Zhen to ask further questions, he couldn't wait to speak:

"Speaking of this little girl, the Emperor of Zhou, she is really amazing."

"Her Sansi is just like digging out the roots of those old cans."

He said with great joy.

When he rises up, he also raises his thumbs from time to time.

Old can?
  There was a strange color in Li Zhen's eyes.

But he did not interrupt his narration and continued to listen.

"Sect inheritance, sect inheritance!"

"Without the sect and the inheritance, how can they survive if they survive?"

"They didn't dare to take action when this girl was the emperor, but now."

"Hey, just wait and see, there will definitely be fun again today."

Ji Donglai was obviously very excited.

For him who does not seek to break the void, but only seeks to live a life of freedom in the human world.

Everything is false.

Perhaps, Lezicai is his true nature.

Listening to his words, Li Zhen seemed to understand.

But for some reason, he suddenly thought of the old events when Emperor Qian collapsed and the world was in chaos.

Inexplicable feeling, somewhat similar.

Such thoughts passed through my mind for a moment.

For a moment, he was temporarily suppressed in the back of his mind.

Don’t rush to watch the fun for now.

He needs to go first and take a look at Zhao Qing.

Meet the old friend he has known for the longest time in the world.

If she fakes her death, look what she is doing.

If she is really dead, then burn incense to her and wish her a happy journey.

Tongji Donglai said goodbye.

He also kindly reminded me that this is someone else’s palace, so be careful.

Li Zhen avoided people all the way and entered Qianning Palace.

The palace is deep and dark, and candles are always burning.

Before he could get deep inside, a strange cold hit his face.

In sight, there is a huge one.

The coffin, which was completely carved out of ice, was placed in the center.

His steps were light and he didn't make a single sound.

Look down through the lid made of polished clear natural crystal.

Zhao Qing, with a rosy complexion, was lying peacefully in it, as if she were a stranger.

No breathing, no heartbeat.

The majestic and domineering aura of the past seemed to have disappeared.

But in Li Zhen's perception.

But there is a vigorous and vital seed of true energy.

It slowly took root in her body.

"This is some kind of unique martial arts practice!"

In an instant, Li Zhen noticed her current state.

The somewhat sad feeling in my heart suddenly disappeared at this moment.

But he didn't show it, while he sneered in his heart.

In a sad voice, he slowly said:
  "At the beginning of the eleventh year of Shen Gong, the Great Zhou Dynasty lost its emperor."

"Her era has come to an end."
