Emperor Chu was sitting on the dragon chair, and that beam of divine light that never went out shone on the throne of the dragon chair forever.
After Pan Qing received the order, he quickly walked into the golden palace. Emperor Chu on the dragon throne looked at him with a sneer.
After Pan Qing walked into the golden palace, he glanced up from the corner of his eyes and noticed the sneer on Emperor Chu's face. He couldn't help but feel stunned. It seemed that Emperor Chu had already known his purpose.
"Meet Emperor Chu."
Pan Qing bowed his hands and shouted respectfully.
Emperor Chu said calmly: "Pan Qing, I heard that Lin Bai was attacked by the remnants of the Nine Nether Demon Palace and was seriously injured and unconscious when he was sent back to the Tianshui Sect's palace?" When Pan Qing heard this, his face showed overwhelming anger.
"Your Majesty, I, the Holy Son of Tianshui Sect, Lin Bai, did things for the royal family, and that's why I provoked the remnants of the Nine Nether Demon Palace. Please strictly investigate the remnants of the Nine Nether Demon Palace in the city, and return Lin Bai to a fair life."
Tao."
He continued: "Jiuyou Demon Palace is so loud and arrogant, and dares to hurt people in the imperial capital. This is simply contempt for the imperial power, contempt for the royal family, and contempt for Emperor Chu!"
"Please also ask Emperor Chu to investigate closely!"
"If Emperor Chu doesn't investigate strictly, then I will do it myself."
Pan Qing's face was full of anger, his words were sharp, and he looked so ruthless that he wanted to skin and cramp the remnants of the Nine Nether Demon Palace.
Emperor Chu chuckled and said, "Okay, Pan Qing, stop pretending."
Pan Qing's eyes rolled slightly and asked: "I wonder what your Majesty means by these words?"
Emperor Chu narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Lin Bai didn't want to participate in the royal family's autumn hunt, so he deliberately found Chen Yule and Meng Qinxian put on a good show. Do you think I can't tell?"
Pan Qing's heart was pounding with fear, but he strongly denied it and said: "No, no, there is absolutely no such thing. Lin Bai was injured by the remnants of the Nine Nether Demon Palace. Your Majesty, please make the decision for Lin Bai."
Emperor Chu looked helpless, sat on the dragon chair and sighed.
Every year during the royal family's autumn hunt, those who are most interested are medium-sized families and small families inside and outside the imperial capital. They want to join the royal family and soar into the sky.
Only the top sects like the Five Families and Seven Sects of the Chu State were afraid of having any connection with the royal family, and they stayed away from the royal family Qiu Lie.
This was the case on weekdays, but now it happened that Emperor Chu was about to abdicate, and the two princes were fighting fiercely for the right to inherit the throne. The five families and seven sects of Chu State did not dare to send warriors to participate.
Emperor Chu sat on the dragon chair, sighed helplessly, and said: "Okay, I will let Zhao Xingsi investigate this matter."
"You should step back first."
Pan Qing nodded in agreement, and then said: "Your Majesty, Holy Son Lin Bai is seriously injured. I am afraid that he will not be able to participate in the royal family's autumn hunt in two months." A sharp light suddenly appeared in Emperor Chu's eyes under his sword-shaped brows, and the corners of his mouth raised.
A trace of ridicule: "Whether Lin Bai can participate in the royal family's autumn hunting depends on how his injury recovers in two months. If he recovers as before, then he will participate. If
If there is no recovery, forget it.”
After Pan Qing received this sentence, he smiled and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty. Then... I will take my leave."
Pan Qing turned around and walked out of the golden palace with satisfaction. In the empty golden palace, only Emperor Chu was left sitting in the beam of divine light.
Emperor Chu chuckled and said, "Pan Qing is still the same Pan Qing he was thousands of years ago. He never seems to hide himself."
He paused and then said: "Look at how happy he is with the smile on his face after he gets the result he wants."
In the darkness, a gloomy voice came: "He did not agree to your request to join the royal family ten thousand years ago. It was a wise move. If he joined the royal family, he would not live that long."
Emperor Chu nodded and smiled and said, "Yes, his character is not suitable for rolling around in the dynasty."
Emperor Chu suddenly changed the subject and asked: "You plan to test Lin Bai in the Royal Autumn Hunting. Now Lin Bai is unwilling to participate in the Royal Autumn Hunting despite all his efforts. What should you do?"
The man in the darkness said: "The temptation has begun. So far, I am quite satisfied."
Emperor Chu frowned and asked: "What do you mean?" The man in the darkness said: "It is a wise move for him not to participate in the royal family's autumn hunting. His Highness King Chen does not have any familiar princesses or princesses under his command. The only one he is familiar with is Nineteenth. Princess Chu Xi and Princess Leping, but these two people are obviously
I will not participate in the royal autumn hunt."
"The princesses and princesses who participated in the royal family's autumn hunt, Princess Miaofeng and Princess Xiangxian, are the people of His Royal Highness the Third Prince, and Princess Chu Tinghan and Princess Chu Tingxue are the people of His Royal Highness Prince Liang!"
"As the biggest prey in this royal family's autumn hunt, Lin Bai must be the target that the third prince and Prince Liang are competing to win over. If he really participates in the royal family's autumn hunt, I'm afraid he will part ways with His Highness Prince Chen."
"So he won't participate."
"And precisely for this reason, it is enough to prove that he is a smart man who understands current affairs."
In the dark hall, the gloomy voice echoed faintly.
Emperor Chu frowned and said, "But if he doesn't participate in the royal family's autumn hunt, you will never be able to test his true strength."
The man in the dark said: "This is your business. You have to find a way to let him participate in the royal autumn hunt."
Emperor Chu stared and exclaimed: "Me? I am choosing a son-in-law for you, how come I have to do all the work!"
The man in the darkness said: "Although you are choosing a son-in-law for me, he is my son-in-law, and he is also the son-in-law of Chu State."
Emperor Chu shook his head and sighed: "It seems that I have to find a way to let him participate in the royal family's autumn hunt." He was silent for a while, and then said: "I have handed over the case of Prince Hong's Mansion to Prince Chen. Your Highness has gone to investigate. Tomorrow morning, His Highness King Chen will submit new evidence to prove that Prince Hong’s Mansion and Miss Shen Xian have nothing to do with this matter.
.”
"At that time, I will restore Miss Shen Xian's status as princess, inherit your title, and allow her to start recalling her old troops!"
The man in the darkness said: "It's best this way. Prince Liang, Chu Tinghan, and Chu Tingxue should also arrive in the imperial capital tomorrow, just in time to give them a blow in the head."
Emperor Chu nodded and said: "You really don't plan to go back and have a look? Go and see your palace and your daughter."
As soon as he said this, the man in the darkness was silent for a long time, and then he said: "Now is not the time."
Emperor Chu sighed softly: "Hey, I have wronged you, brother emperor."
The man in the darkness laughed and said, "There is nothing to feel wronged about. It's all for the sake of the country of Chu."
"It's a pity that our generation cannot unify the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm. We can only wait and see whether the next generation can fulfill the long-cherished wish of their ancestors."
In the empty and dark hall, Emperor Chu was sitting in the divine light, seeming to be talking to himself. He seemed to be alone, but in fact there were many figures floating in the darkness around him.
Those figures are like the ghosts of Chu State, wandering within the territory of Chu State, and will never reincarnate. Even if they die, their souls will guard the tranquility of this world.
