Zhu Youde ignored King Yan, but looked up at everyone and asked, "Have you caught those assassins last night?"
"Your Majesty, those assassins are extremely cunning. They had already escaped when the Royal Forest Army arrived."
Zhou Heng on the side quickly stepped forward and spoke.
Zhu Youde frowned slightly, seemingly dissatisfied: "The Royal Forest Army is not too far away, so why haven't they come yet? Those assassins have been chasing us for at least an hour."
Hearing this, Zhou Heng had a little guilt on his face.
"Your Majesty, after the banquet last night, King Yan said that he wanted to return to Prince Yan's Mansion, so part of the Royal Forest Army was dispatched by King Yan."
Zhu Youde's eyes briefly rested on King Yan.
Then it came back to Zhou Heng: "Death penalty can be avoided, but living crime is difficult to forgive. I will be fined three months' salary. Do you have any opinions?"
Zhou Heng nodded repeatedly when he heard this.
After all, this matter is big or small, and it can be regarded as dereliction of duty.
Moreover, there is actually some connotation in this matter, and Zhou Heng did not say it in front of everyone...
"Then let the sacrifice to heaven begin."
Accompanied by his guards, Zhu Youde changed into a dragon robe.
An hour later, the genius ceremony was finally over.
Zhu Youde also led the civil and military officials back to the palace.
Just after returning to the palace, Zhou Heng, who had been punished by himself before, asked to see him.
From Zhou Heng's previous attitude, Zhu Youde could sense that Zhou Heng must be hiding something.
At this time, in the imperial study room, Zhou Heng was kneeling on one knee.
"Your Majesty, last night King Yan falsely conveyed an edict, saying that your Majesty wanted to escort the Royal Forest Army to him, so we did not inform you in advance."
After all, as a prince, you should know the dangers of falsely preaching the Holy Edict.
If this matter had been revealed in front of all the civil and military officials before, it would undoubtedly have caused a rift between Zhu Youde and King Yan.
Zhu Youde knew that now was not the time to break up, as the cavalry in King Yan's hands was a little too powerful.
If you really break up, you won't gain anything.
What's more, Zhu Youde's idea was very simple. He not only wanted to capture the King of Yan, but also wanted to capture all the 100,000 Northern Liang troops.
As long as one hundred thousand Northern Liang troops are acquired, most of the current foreign troubles will be solved.
In this regard, Zhu Youde will indeed have a headache for some time.
"You should step back first. Don't let others know about this matter for the time being."
Zhu Youde waved his hand, and Zhou Heng naturally nodded in agreement after hearing this.
Just as Zhou Heng left, Luo Xian ran in holding up her skirt from outside.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."
Seeing that Luo Xian was not staying well in the harem, Zhu Youde ran over and was equally puzzled.
He stood up and greeted Luo Xian: "What's the matter with my beloved concubine?"
"The elixir we obtained before..." Luo Xian said as she took out the jade box and said, "It is the legendary Great Return elixir."
Zhu Youde looked at the sky outside and saw that the sun was setting. He simply returned to the palace with Luo Xian.
In the bedroom, Zhu Youde was holding the Huangji Jue he had obtained before and was still flipping through it.
"After practicing this Emperor's Jue, not only will your strength greatly increase, but it will even have the effect of prolonging your life. It's really miraculous."
This secret book is divided into nine levels, and nine is the ultimate number.
After reaching the first level, your strength is already stronger than that of ordinary people.
Once you reach the third level, you will be comparable to a third-rate master. If you reach the seventh level, you will be comparable to a first-rate master. As for the ninth level, it is not mentioned in the book.
But if you think about it carefully, if you really reach the ninth level, wouldn't you be the legendary land god?
After thinking of this, Zhu Youde was equally excited.
In addition, this secret book also has a function that makes Zhu Youde very excited.
It can enhance the time and ability of applause and reduce the subsequent sequelae.
As the emperor, Zhu Youde was in worse health than ordinary people because of his indulgence in the past few days.
It's just some medicines that have no effect at all.
Now that this secret book has been obtained, Zhu Youde has solved this problem.
Of course, it is not that simple to practice. Zhu Youde still needs to learn some basic knowledge.
Zhu Youde also began to learn these things under the guidance of secret books.
Zhu Youde's memory itself is quite good, but it took him only half an hour to memorize some basic pulse gates clearly.
Practicing something like this is not something that can be accomplished in a day.
But Zhu Youde has the Great Returning Pill, which is equivalent to saving ten years of practice time.
After watching Huangji Jue once, Zhu Youde swallowed the Great Return Pill in one gulp.
The Great Returning Pill melts immediately at the entrance, like a stream of clear water, pouring into Zhu Youde's limbs and bones.
Zhu Youde closed his eyes slightly and began to slowly digest the power of the medicine in his body.
When he first started practicing, Zhu Youde felt as if all the limbs and bones in his body were about to break.
But this is also a relatively normal thing.
After all, the power of Da Huan Dan is extremely powerful, and Zhu Youde's previous body could be described as weak.
Now it can be regarded as a process of breaking the old and establishing the new, so that my body can better accommodate the internal strength of cultivation.
After a period of physical pain, a feeling of comfort slowly began to spread again.
Zhu Youde felt as if his body had been reshaped.
Two hours passed slowly, and it was now the ugly hour.
The moonlight outside the window slowly shone in, and Luo Xian was always accompanying Zhu Youde.
When Zhu Youde opened his eyes, he immediately felt a stench coming from him.
Only then did he realize that his body was already covered with a thin layer of black dirt.
Zhu Youde has never eaten pork, nor has he ever seen pigs running away.
These black dirt should be toxins excreted from your body.
Although it was already midnight, Zhu Youde felt very energetic.
"Your Majesty, the hot water over there has been put for you. I know that your Majesty will need it after practicing."
Luo Xian said happily when she saw Zhu Youde waking up.
Zhu Youde nodded, stood up, and stretched his muscles a little.
At this moment, he had a feeling that he might be able to kill a cow with one punch.
Glancing at Luo Xian next to him, Zhu Youde hooked his hand and said, "Don't be in a hurry to take a shower..."
After saying that, he shouted out the window: "Wang Banban!"
"Your Majesty, this old slave is here..."
"Let's try a palm strike," Zhu Youde said to Wang Zhonghou.
"This... Your Majesty, isn't it good?"
"There's nothing wrong with it. I'll use all my strength, but you should save some strength." Zhu Youde shook his head and said.
Now, he has cultivated internal strength in his body, and of course most of this is the effect of the Great Return Pill.
After hearing Zhu Youde's words, Wang Zhonghou nodded slowly and slapped lightly.
Zhu Youde also raised a hand, used his inner strength, and struck out with a palm.
