I'm the one running the game

"Your Highness, I have to trouble you again."

In the middle of the night, after finishing his official duties, Master Gongjing came to the dungeon where the crown prince was imprisoned.

He did not abuse him. Apart from restricting his activities, his food and drink expenses were all in accordance with the original specifications.

The crown prince raised his eyes slightly. This time he was very calm and did not say a word.

Seeing this, Master Gongjing did not make any extra movements and took blood again.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for the blood." Master Gongjing smiled. Wouldn't it be better to wait for death earlier? He didn't have to toss so long before.

"Your Dragon Pill, you have refined it."

Master Gongjing was about to leave when the crown prince suddenly spoke.

"Your Highness, you are joking. How can this Dragon Pill be refined so easily?"

"I just gathered all the medicinal materials." Master Gongjing said.

When these words came out, the crown prince's pupils shrank. Wasn't there a large gap in the medicine before? How come it has been gathered now?

"Your Highness will ascend the throne in two days, so I, the old Taoist, will have to speed up."

"But before dawn, Your Highness may be able to smell the fragrance of the Dragon Transformation Pill." Master Gong Jing did not hide anything.

In his opinion, there was no need to hide anything. How could the Crown Prince escape?

When the dust settled, everything would be fine.

"You...you will not die well!" The Crown Prince was broken and cursed directly.

The medicine of the Dragon Transformation Pill was enough to ruin his reputation.

How could he not know that Master Gong Jing was mobilizing power in the capital in the name of the Crown Prince.

Even if he did not die this time, he would not be able to be the emperor if it was exposed later.

The matter of the Eight Kings has not been resolved yet. Although they escaped, it was like letting the tiger go back to the mountain. If they enter the capital next time, it would be to purge the emperor.

And it was a reasonable purge.

As for covering up the matter, it could be covered up before, but now it is impossible.

If you want to blame someone, blame Gong Jing, the Imperial Master, for preparing for the dragon transformation and not caring about the public opinion.

He felt that his good situation was defeated by Gong Jing.

"Your Highness, your opinion is good." Gong Jing, the Imperial Master, ignored the insults of the Crown Prince, and then said, "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."

"Your Highness, you should not see my old face in the next two days."

After saying this, Gong Jing, the Imperial Master turned and left.

'Does he really dare to kill me? ? ? '

After Gong Jing, the Crown Prince had only this sentence in his mind.

The other party's meaning was very clear, that is, to let him enjoy the rest of his life.

The time of ascending the throne was the time of his death.

Obviously, he was also part of the other party's dragon transformation plan.

Originally, he thought that the other party was just thinking of using his ascension to the throne as a help for the dragon transformation. Now think about it again, it is not a help, the biggest possibility is a sacrifice.

If he was just helping, he would still have a way out. Even if he couldn't kill him afterwards, he would still be the Emperor of Dazhao and could mobilize the world's cultivators to launch a siege against Master Gongjing.

Even after the Five Turbidities and Evil Times were over, he could announce it to the heaven and earth, and let the immortals and gods kill him and execute him.

But now, everything has become a cloud.

His idea was based on the fact that he was alive. If he died, even if Master Gongjing was liquidated in the future, what would happen? He couldn't see this ending and wouldn't get any benefits.

"No, I have to leave this place!" The Crown Prince looked terrified.

Just looking at the chains that bound him again, he had thick arms, not only his limbs were bound by chains, but also his waist, neck and other places.

And these chains were melted by magic and merged with the ground. Unless he had the power of regret, he couldn't think of pulling these chains out of the ground.

As for cutting the chains, this is even more absurd. Not to mention that the materials used to make the chains are all kinds of rare gold and iron, they are indestructible after being refined into magic weapons.

Even if he succeeded, this is only the first step. The dungeon he is in is covered with arrays and talismans, and he cannot open the door even if he comes out.

The dungeon is made of gold and iron, and its door is made of dragon-breaking stone. Only Master Gongjing can open it.

How can a mortal like him escape?

If the dynasty's protection is still there, then with his status as the crown prince, it is naturally no problem for him to get out.

However, since Master Gongjing prepared to transform into a dragon, the dynasty's protection disappeared. It was not destroyed by Master Gongjing, but because Master Gongjing's transformation into a dragon consumed the Great Zhao Dynasty itself, making the Great Zhao Dynasty unable to protect.

Outsiders only thought that it was caused by the dispute between the one crown prince and the eight kings. Even at the beginning, even the crown prince thought so. Unexpectedly, the mastermind behind the scenes would be Master Gongjing.

Of course, even if it was really caused by the dispute between the one heir and the eight princes, they would not stop and make the world suffer. The treacherous people would bear the blame.

This is the throne, no one can give it up, not to mention that it is just a few deaths. It is nothing to the one heir and the eight princes. It is not as important as their power and status.

If there was no dispute over the throne, it would not be so easy for Master Gongjing to succeed.

"The death of my father..." A gleam of light suddenly flashed in the eyes of the prince. At this time, he finally understood why his father died so strangely.

The only person who can take action is Master Gongjing, the old centipede.

Only he could instigate the actions of the other eight princes, making him stuck in the process of ascending the throne.

If Master Gongjing was not ready to transform into a dragon, then naturally no one could ascend the throne.

Even the evil ways and demons in the capital could act so recklessly in the capital, and Master Gongjing was behind it.

With this thought, the crown prince completely pushed his responsibility away, saying that he was a white lotus, and the one who was wrong was the treacherous Master Gongjing.

In fact, Master Gongjing was just a pusher. The culprit who could make such a mess must not be anyone else, but the first and eighth princes and the dignitaries in the capital.

Master Gongjing just calculated their ambitions, and then turned their ambitions from plans into implementation.

The whole process had little to do with him.

"Your father's death was not caused by Master Gongjing, was it?"

A voice fell into the ears of the crown prince, which frightened him. As soon as he moved, the chains collided with each other and made a clanging sound.

"Who? Who are you? Get out of here!" The crown prince instinctively yelled, and then he regretted it.

He should have been better, otherwise how could the other party be willing to save him.

It was just that the other party scared him, so he subconsciously said this.

He was used to it in the past, but now he has changed his identity suddenly, and he has not adapted to it yet.

Although he was locked up in the dungeon by Master Gong Jing, he was only subjected to cold violence, and was not tortured at all.

"Please forgive me, Taoist priest, I have been imprisoned in the dungeon by this evil way for a long time, and I can't help but feel resentful in my heart, and I think Taoist friends are the evil way."

"Please come out and see me, Taoist priest, I am the crown prince of Dazhao."

He apologized sincerely first, then found a reason, and then revealed his identity. The whole process was smooth.

He didn't know whether he could make up for what he said just now, but he had already made amends, and success or failure depends on fate.

As long as the one who came was not an evil way, it was actually easy to say.

All the cultivators are good people who do good deeds and accumulate virtue. When they encounter such things, they will definitely not stand by and watch someone die.

In this regard, the crown prince is still confident.

"Again, was your father's death caused by Master Gongjing?" The voice came again, this time with a warning: "Tell the truth, don't talk nonsense, otherwise you will die in here."

The crown prince's eyes condensed, thinking about who this person is.

"If you want to talk about the beneficiaries here, he is the only one."

"First, cause chaos in the capital, and then do the act of turning into a dragon." The crown prince naturally couldn't tell the truth. If he really told the truth, he didn't have any evidence, it was all speculation.

If he could leave, he might be able to find evidence to prove it, but now it's too late.

"Master Gongjing turned into a dragon, what did he turn into?" The voice came again.

"Karma, evil dragon."

"Once Gongjing, the old centipede, successfully transforms into a dragon, even if immortals and gods enter the world, they will not be able to kill him, but can only suppress him." The crown prince said in a deep voice.

"Tell me in detail." The other party's voice was full of curiosity.

This made the crown prince feel relieved.

Finally, he hooked the other party up. He was not afraid of the other party's curiosity, but he was afraid that the other party had other purposes and he could not use them.

Therefore, he told everything he knew, and described Gongjing, the national teacher, as a bad person.

He also emphasized the legitimacy of himself as the crown prince, implying that as long as the other party was willing to save him, then the next national teacher position would be yours.

But he was dry-mouthed, but the other party did not move at all.

"Master, are you still there?" After the crown prince finished speaking, he hurriedly asked.

He was afraid that the other party had left, and then he was really finished.

In fact, he also had a bad premonition in his heart, what exactly did the other party come for.

If he came for Master Gongjing, he still had a chance of survival. If he came for something else, he really had no chance of survival.

Creak~

The door suddenly opened, and Master Gongjing was seen leaning over.

"Friend Lu, I didn't expect you to sneak in quietly. This transformation technique is the best in the world."

"It's a pity. Does this idiot really think I don't know anything?"

"If he hadn't delayed you, how could my Dragon Transformation Pill succeed smoothly?"

Master Gongjing's eyes fell on the crown prince. The so-called pill was completed at dawn, which was naturally a lie.

Nine truths and one lie not only frightened the crown prince, but also made Lu Xingshi misjudge the time.

In the capital, Lu Xingshi was the only one who could become his confidant and patient.
