Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

His Highness King Chen opened his eyes quietly and saw a young monk making tea.

Seeing the monk's appearance, he gradually felt relieved and stretched out comfortably.

The two of them didn't say much, and the young monk handed the brewed cup of steaming tea to His Highness King Chen.

He reached out to take the tea cup, first put it to the tip of his nose and sniffed it gently, then raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

When the young monk saw this, he frowned slightly, and his eyes seemed to show some concern.

"After all, I have the cultivation level of Taiyi Daoguo realm. This little bit of scalding water can't hurt me."

His Highness Prince Chen understood the concern in his eyes, so he smiled and explained: "Besides...you and I have drank the most scalding water, how can we care about the temperature anymore?"

The smile on the young monk's face gradually solidified, and there was a hint of brightness between his eyebrows.

His Highness Prince Chen stared at him and said calmly: "The seizure of the legitimate title is over. It can be said that everything is over. You don't need to blame yourself too much for what happened back then, and you don't need to practice 'shut-up' anymore." ?”

The young monk remained silent, ignored His Highness King Chen, and started making tea again.

His Royal Highness Prince Chen said silently: "You should be very clear about the rules of the royal family. Before the crown prince is established, the ancestors of the royal family allowed the princes to compete with each other for power. Once the crown prince is established, the princes can no longer be disloyal."

"This is the rule of the royal family."

"I have become the Crown Prince, Brother Three Emperors has admitted defeat, and what happened back then is over."

Hearing His Highness King Chen mention the third prince, the young monk frowned slightly and his eyes instantly became sharp.

His Highness Prince Chen felt the anger in his heart, patted his shoulder gently, and said: "Although the deaths of the eldest prince, the second prince, and the twelfth prince are inextricably linked to the third prince."

"But this is all a matter of heirloom."

"The third prince has already admitted defeat. Even if I want to kill him to avenge the two royal brothers, my ancestor will not allow it."

Hearing this, the young monk closed his eyes in grief, and the palm of his hand holding the tea cup couldn't help but tremble.

With a snap, he unconsciously exerted force in his hand, and the teacup shattered in his palm.

His Highness King Chen sighed bitterly and said: "I know that you disagree with the rules of the royal family, but there is nothing you can do about it. It is precisely because of the existence of these rules that the royal family of Chu can continue to exist for hundreds of thousands of years."

"You can think about it carefully... without this seemingly ridiculous rule, what would have happened in the end for the Chu royal family to seize the throne?"

"The prince who has no chance of winning will make dangerous moves, win over the courtiers, collude with the military king, and then raise an army to rebel."

"The Chu Kingdom is in chaos, and countless people in the demon world will be happy."

The young monk closed his eyes and frowned deeply.

After a while, he seemed to have figured it out, and seemed to have put it down temporarily. He let out a sigh and continued to make tea.

Upon seeing this, His Highness King Chen also gave a wry smile, took the tea cup handed from the young monk, and continued to drink tea.

In the Daci'en Temple in the imperial capital, a silent monk made tea and a powerful prince drank tea.

The surroundings seemed to be seeing something down, no noisy streets could be seen, and the wailing coming from the battlefield could be heard.

"Do you know that the Nine Nether Demon Palace colluded with the Northern Territory warriors to abduct the top sect's saints and ancestors outside the imperial capital?"

After His Highness King Chen explained what happened to the third prince, he suddenly asked him about it.

Hearing this, the young monk looked at His Highness King Chen with doubts on his face, and then nodded slowly... indicating that he already knew about this, but he was confused as to why the Nine Nether Demon Palace would do this?

His Highness Prince Chen was also upset about this. He was holding a teacup in one hand and rubbing his eyebrows with the other, murmuring: "Originally, the Zhaoxing Division and the Forbidden Army sealed this matter very well, but someone deliberately spread it out. .”

"But the royal family didn't show any indication. It's obvious that the royal family did this deliberately behind the scenes."

The young monk looked at His Highness King Chen in confusion, as if asking him... Why would the royal family do this?

His Highness King Chen explained: "They moved too fast and left no clues. We don't even know who did it. That's why the royal family used this to lure snakes out of their holes. Otherwise, we would not even have colluded with Jiuyou Demon Palace and the Northern Territory." Don’t know anything.”

The young monk suddenly understood. He raised his head and looked at the sky, with a little reminiscence in his eyes.

He seemed to remember Emperor Chu's methods, and then he couldn't help laughing contemptuously.

His Highness King Chen continued: "The sect masters and family heads of the sect families whose saint son and ancestor were kidnapped have already left for the imperial capital. They will arrive in the imperial capital in about seven or eight days!"

"Father has already ordered me to prepare for the reception."

The young monk looked at His Royal Highness King Chen, his piercing eyes showing a sharp edge.

He seemed to be telling His Royal Highness King Chen... This would not help at all. The best way was to rescue those saint sons and ancestors.

His Highness King Chen understood the meaning in his eyes, and smiled bitterly: "According to the calculations of the royal family, the kidnapped Holy Son and Ancestor may have been sent out of the Chu Kingdom by them, and they are no longer even within the Eastern Territory. ”

The young monk was suddenly enlightened. No wonder Zhao Xingsi and the Forbidden Army jointly investigated, but no trace of the Holy Son and Ancestor could be found.

His Highness King Chen said calmly: "My father's intention is... to wait for Beiyu to take the initiative to come over and make conditions, or for them to make moves. Now we can only take a step and see what we can do."

The young monk suddenly thought of something, and he suddenly took out a waist badge belonging to Zhao Xingsi from his arms.

He stared at the badge with a strange expression.

His Highness King Chen suddenly frowned, looked at the young monk and asked, "Are you thinking...why they can send people out of the Chu Kingdom under the eyes of the Zhaoxing Division?"

The young monk nodded slightly and pressed Zhao Xingsi's belt card on the table.

His Highness Prince Chen narrowed his eyes and murmured in a low voice: "That's right, how did they send people out under the eyes of Zhaoxing Division?"

"How did they avoid the intelligence system of the Zhaoxing Division?"

The young monk looked directly at His Highness King Chen, who raised his head and met his eyes.

In an instant.

His Highness King Chen understood the situation and whispered: "There is a mole in the Zhaoxing Division, and he is a mole in a high-level position. Otherwise, they would not be able to send people out of the Chu Kingdom so easily!"

"Who is this person?"

"Or...who could these people be?"

His Highness King Chen sighed softly: "Nine Nether Demon Palace spent a hundred thousand years to make a comeback, and its manpower has penetrated into the top forces in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm. Unexpectedly, they even have their manpower in the Zhaoxing Division. "

After pondering for a while, His Highness King Chen patted the young monk on the shoulder and said: "Since you are back, please stay for a while. Even if you don't want to go back to your own mansion, you can just live in Da Ci'en Temple."

"I'm going to get busy."

The young monk did not stop His Highness King Chen and allowed him to leave.

He knew that now that His Highness Prince Chen had become the crown prince and encountered such a difficult matter, he must have a lot to do.
