Red Mansion Taoist

Chapter 293 Prince
Li Qiang came to the cabinet, which had just been filled with people.

"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince!" Academicians Tian and Deng arrived early. When they saw Li Qiang, they came forward and kowtowed.

"Please get up quickly!" Li Qiang stepped forward and helped the two cabinet bachelors up before they could kneel down.

Academician Tian looked at Li Qiang with joy. When he first knew that Li Qiang was the child of Prince Yi Zhong and inherited the throne of Prince Yi Zhong, especially after Emperor Jingwen's accident, he had thought about the possibility of Li Qiang taking over the throne.

He has worked with Li Qiang for a long time and knows Li Qiang very well.

Needless to say, Li Qiang's ability. With her own strength and without any background, she worked hard alone and became a first-class master of nine provinces. From a second-class cabinet bachelor, her ability has not been second to none in the past hundred years. .

The key is that Li Qiang was still able to calm down and study hard in the cabinet, rising from a cabinet minister to a cabinet bachelor.

Being versatile in both civil and military affairs, as well as being humble and courteous, this kind of emperor was so lucky for Da Qian.

"Master Deng, please ask for your order!" Academician Tian said to Academician Deng with a smile.

Academician Deng nodded and took out the edict from the box on the side.

When it comes to other emperors, no matter how much the Dragon of Luck is strengthened, the emperor is still an ordinary mortal. He cannot practice the methods of an immortal anyway, and increasing his body's ability to withstand energy has no effect.

This personal eunuch is of great importance and must be selected by Li Qiang himself.

Now he feels that the limit of this power attribute has disappeared. If he can find a new way to practice generals, he can increase his power again.

What the cabinet needs to do is to announce the contents of the imperial edict to the world, so that Daqian and even Daqian's neighboring countries know that Daqian has a prince.

If Li Qiang's previous body was a bowl of water, now his body is a large water tank, which allows his body to withstand more energy.

"Your Highness, are you feeling unwell?" University Scholar Deng asked with concern when he saw Li Qiang standing there for a long time.

This is the restriction imposed by heaven and earth on the emperor. An emperor who holds the power of a country cannot become an immortal by practicing Taoism and Buddhism.

His current strength attribute is 800 points, which is his current limit.

The strength attribute is like this, and the same goes for other attributes.

These matters do not need to be taken care of by the cabinet, and are handled by the Ministry of Rites and the palace together.

If Li Qiang were an immortal cultivating Taoism and Buddhism, the end result would be that under the erosion of the Dragon of Qi Luck, all the Qi cultivated in the body would be emptied, and the body would completely turn into a mortal.

The Dragon of Da Qian's Luck seems to be able to sense Li Qiang's strength, so the erosion of the Dragon of Da Qian's Luck in Li Qiang's body continues to increase, making her look like she will not give up until she succeeds.

He looked around at the cabinet members and found that they didn't seem to hear the dragon's roar.

Of course, everything is not that simple. Li Qiang also needs to move into the East Palace and customize the prince's dragon robe and corresponding clothing for Li Qiang. In addition, the prince's ceremonial guard, chariot, eunuchs, maids, subordinate officials, etc., there are many complicated things.

Even if there are no new general training techniques that can be practiced, one can still slowly grow in strength by practicing the 'Taixu Sutra'.

"I'm very good, very, very good!" he said with a smile.

"Personal eunuch, I haven't even lived in Prince Yi Zhong's palace, and I've only met the eunuch there once!" Li Qiang shook her head helplessly.

The sound of the dragon's roar was getting closer and closer, as if it was flying down from the sky.

Although he didn't know what the previous limits of his body's physical and mental attributes were, because he hadn't yet cultivated to the limits of these two items, his strength had been cultivated to the limit.

Although he did not use the 'Qi Watching Technique', he also knew that the dragon's roar came from Daqian's Dragon of Luck.

After Li Qiang finished listening to the imperial edict, he only felt a dragon roar coming from above his head.

He didn't expect that after becoming the crown prince of Daqian, he would actually break through his own bottleneck and suddenly increase his body's limits a lot.

It can be said that the personal eunuch is the most trustworthy person for the princes. When the prince becomes the prince or the emperor, the personal eunuch will naturally become the chief eunuch in the palace.

But there is no emperor in Daqian. In the induction of the dragon of luck in Daqian, Li Qiang is the ruler of Daqian. There is not much difference between the crown prince and the emperor.

I don't know how much time passed, but it seemed to Li Qiang that a long time had passed, but it seemed that in an instant, the dragon of luck left his body and flew into the sky again.

Not only was he not injured, but due to the long-term flushing of the Dragon of Luck in his body, his body underwent strange changes.

Li Qiang faintly saw a golden dragon passing through the roof of the cabinet, entering the room, and rushing towards him again.

Then he felt a strange energy in his body. This energy filled every part of his body and continued to travel through his body.

The most important thing is that since there is no emperor in Daqian, the prince's weight has been infinitely elevated, almost equal to that of the emperor.

But Li Qiang is different. What he cultivates is mana, a kind of energy that does not belong to this world, a special energy brought by the game panel.

Indeed, after the Dragon of Daqian's Luck wreaked havoc in his body, first of all, it was impossible for the Dragon of Daqian's Luck to cause damage to his body. The most it could do was to remove alien energy, so no matter how the Dragon of Daqian's Luck wreaked havoc, , his body did not suffer any damage.

After a long period of energy flushing by Daqian's Dragon of Luck, his body's ability to withstand energy has been greatly enhanced.

"Your Highness, you still need to choose a personal eunuch!" Academician Tian reminded him when he saw that Li Qiang was fine.

The Dragon of Great Qian Luck should be able to bear it only after gaining the throne.

He opened the edict and read out its contents in front of everyone in the cabinet.

Li Qiang had woken up at this time, and he first felt his physical condition.

But Li Qiang's body, after being strengthened by the Dragon of Luck, had increased his limit many times.

Li Qiang's situation is very special. Compared with other princes, every prince has been accompanied by a personal eunuch since childhood.

He didn't feel any malice, and just when he was hesitating whether to dodge, the golden dragon's momentum was extremely fast, and it rushed into his body at once.

Therefore, even if the Great Dragon of Luck continued to wash through his body, it would not affect his mana at all.

Since there was no emperor, the imperial edict was read out in the cabinet, which meant that Li Qiang was the crown prince of Daqian from now on.

"All the original eunuchs in the East Palace have been killed. Now a new batch of eunuchs have been replaced. Go over and see if you can find a suitable one!" Academician Tian had no choice but to think about it and suggested.

"Then go and have a look!" Li Qiang said as soon as she heard that this was a good idea.

After leaving the cabinet, he saw a bunch of eunuchs kneeling outside. These eunuchs were all wearing official eunuch robes, and Zhang Yi, the eunuch in charge of the imperial horse eunuch, was among them.

"Slave, please come to see the prince!" the eunuchs said in unison.

"Everyone, get up!" Li Qiang waved her hand and said.

The eunuchs stood up. Even if they stood up, they were still bowing. "I recognize some of you, please introduce yourselves first!" Li Qiang almost guessed the origins of these eunuchs, he ordered.

The eunuchs began to introduce themselves one by one. Here are the eunuchs in charge of the 12th, 4th, and 8th bureaus.

Of course, something happened to the eunuch like Shangshan, and a large number of eunuchs were arrested. A lower-status eunuch came, and the other eunuchs from each family came.

"Zhang Yi, you stay and everyone else goes about their own business!" Li Qiang waved his hand and ordered.

All the eunuchs looked at Eunuch Zhang Yi with envy, and they all regretted not contacting Li Qiang in advance.

The reason why eunuch Zhang Yi was treated differently by Li Qiang was not because Huang Ming had been in contact with Li Qiang several times.

The eunuchs retreated carefully. Although they did not receive as much attention from Li Qiang as eunuch Zhang Yi, this meeting made the eunuchs feel at ease.

At least Li Qiang has not shown any dissatisfaction with the eunuchs who are now in power, so there will be no change in their positions.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Eunuch Zhang Yi came to Li Qiang's side excitedly and said.

"Go to the East Palace with me. You will be more familiar with the palace. I need you to help me with my eyes!" Li Qiang said with a smile.

"Slave, I will do my best!" Eunuch Zhang Yi bowed his head and promised.

Eunuch Zhang Yi took the initiative to lead the way. Although Li Qiang knew the East Palace very well, she still let him go.

After passing a door, there is a square in front of you.

It was here that Li Qiang blocked hundreds of White Lotus cultists and saved Emperor Jingwen.

Unexpectedly, when I came here now, I would become the new owner of the East Palace.

"Your Highness, the eunuchs and maids of the East Palace are waiting in front!" Eunuch Zhang Yi reminded softly.

Li Qiang looked up and saw a group of eunuchs and maids kneeling in front of the East Palace Gate.

These eunuchs are all very young, none of them look older than twenty. The same is true for the palace ladies, they are all young palace ladies.

"The eunuchs in the East Palace were killed once by the former deposed emperor, and then a new batch was changed. Because the deposed emperor was involved in the crime of treason, all the eunuchs in the East Palace were killed again. At that time, there was no news that you became the prince, so the older ones No eunuch is willing to come to the East Palace!" Eunuch Zhang Yi had no intention of hiding anything and explained why the East Palace was currently filled with young eunuchs.

The most important thing for him at this time is to please Li Qiang. With this, he can get along well in the palace.

When Li Qiang heard about the eunuch of the East Palace, she couldn't help but feel that the eunuch of the East Palace was getting more and more unlucky.

Killing a palace eunuch at every turn does not take the eunuch's life seriously.

But considering the status of eunuchs, that is, slaves serving the royal family, even slaves from wealthy families can be beaten to death if they commit crimes, let alone the royal family.

"There are no eunuchs in charge of the East Palace yet. These eunuchs and maids are only responsible for the cleanliness of the East Palace!" Zhang Yi explained when he saw that none of the eunuchs and maids spoke, just kneeling.

If it were a normal situation and there was a eunuch in charge, there would be a eunuch in charge welcoming Li Qiang on his behalf at this moment.

"It's okay if you don't have it!" Li Qiang said with a smile.

He looked at these young eunuchs and maids, thinking that they had gone through two East Palace purges. The eunuchs and maids who could come here were either newcomers or were not welcomed in other places.

"You, you, you, and you, the four of you will be responsible for cleaning up the hall from now on!" Li Qiang casually pointed at the four young eunuchs and said.

The four young eunuchs were surprised and happy, and kowtowed hurriedly to express their gratitude.

"You work hard, and the eunuchs in charge of all levels of the East Palace will be selected from among you!" Li Qiang continued.

This time, it was the other eunuchs' turn to have bright eyes. These little eunuchs had no chance of success elsewhere, but they didn't expect that they would have hope when they came to the East Palace.

Li Qiang didn't care if there were any spies among these eunuchs. Anyway, he planned to use the 'Fengyue Baojian' to forcibly bind 100% loyalty to the eunuchs who had the right to enter the main hall.

Even Eunuch Zhang Yi was a little envious of these young eunuchs, especially the four who could enter the main hall.

Living with Li Qiang every day, under such convenient conditions, as long as he gets Li Qiang's approval, his identity is like a carp leaping over the dragon gate, and he suddenly becomes the highest status among eunuchs.

Eunuch Zhang Yi could almost imagine the regrets of those eunuchs outside.

I originally thought that the East Palace was just a big pit, but I didn't expect that Li Qiang would become the prince. The East Palace suddenly became the center of power. In the future, these little eunuchs would become the emperor's minions.

Even though Eunuch Zhang Yi was a palm eunuch, in terms of status, there was no way to compare with the eunuchs who were close to the emperor.

Li Qiang entered the main hall of the East Palace and looked at the familiar furnishings. He couldn't help but think of the days when he spent time with Emperor Jingwen here.

"How is Emperor Jingwen doing now?" Li Qiang asked Eunuch Zhang Yi.

Eunuch Zhang Yi heard Li Qiang's question, especially when Li Qiang said the title Emperor Jingwen, and wanted to correct him, but considering that Li Qiang was the prince, he did not dare to say anything.

"The deposed emperor is now locked up in the cold palace!" He thought for a while and replied.

"Leng Gong?" Li Qiang shook her head and said.

"Xia Shouzhong has been executed, and now the deposed emperor is served by a deaf-mute eunuch. This is the emperor's special request!" Eunuch Zhang Yi said again.

Li Qiang thought of Xia Shouzhong and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Xia Shouzhong was indeed loyal, but he didn't expect to end up like this.

However, Li Qiang only had some thoughts caused by the death of a familiar person, and he would not interfere in Emperor Jingwen's handling of the matter.

Emperor Jingwen was the son of the Supreme Emperor, and the Supreme Emperor had his own ideas on how to deal with it.

"Hey, why is the jade seal still here?" Li Qiang suddenly saw something on the dragon case and couldn't help but be surprised.

He came to the dragon case, reached out and picked up the jade seal, and confirmed that it was the seal of Emperor Daqian.

"This slave doesn't know!" Eunuch Zhang Yi almost lowered his head under the dragon table at this moment, he mumbled.

He also did not expect that the seal of Emperor Daqian would be in the East Palace.

This matter was definitely arranged by the Supreme Emperor, and only the Supreme Emperor had the authority to do so.

Although the imperial edict of Daqian, even if it has the seal of the Emperor of Daqian, it still needs the seal of the Supreme Emperor. The problem is that now that Li Qiang is still the prince, he has been given the same power as Emperor Xingwen before. This is really So unexpected.
