Chapter 458 Kyoto, Dragon Struggle

Kyoto, in the palace that never falls, suspended above the sky.

Even though it was already late at night, the eldest prince was still burning the midnight oil, constantly reviewing memorials sent from various places.

He didn't care much about Beidi. He knew that his third brother and he would maintain a certain tacit understanding, and there would be no problems in Beidi during this period.

What he focused on was the memorial in Jiangnan, especially about the real dragon and the missing Yamata norochi snake.

Of course, what I care about the most is the Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake.

After all, he was not born with the body of a true dragon. Although he supervises the country on behalf of his father, he still has some unjustified reputation over the years, even though many characters have already acquiesced that he will be the successor of the next generation.

But if one of the many princes is outstanding and rises suddenly, there will still be risks.

Especially if a person with the body of a true dragon appears among many princes, then there will basically be no suspense in the competition, and there will be no suspense in the competition for a pure true dragon body.

And the method of cultivating the body of a true dragon the day after tomorrow was really earth-shattering. He would never be able to watch it fall into the hands of others immediately.

After all, if any of the princes of his generation cultivated the body of a true dragon, he would definitely claim that he was born from birth, not the so-called acquired body.

Under such circumstances, no one can judge or argue.

That was something he couldn't bear.

A lot of information is quickly summarized and then browsed quickly.

On a light screen in front of him, various information flashed rapidly, and then he briefly reviewed it.

This is a unique creation created by Tiangongwu. It can input the text on each memorial into it as quickly as possible, and then it will process it uniformly. After clicking OK, it can be processed quickly.

Moreover, there will be special markings on key events and urgent documents, either in red or with enlarged and bold fonts, making it much easier to deal with things.

What needs to be processed the most now are the memorials and articles about Jiangnan, and the articles about Jiangnan are most marked with red text.

Even with the eldest prince's master-level cultivation, browsing so much information day and night would still make him feel tired.

But thinking of the Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake, the eldest prince, who was a little tired at first, could not help but regain his energy and took a sip of ginseng tea blended with centuries-old blood spirits.

The eldest prince felt energetic again, and then he looked up and found that most of the information was messy and unsystematic.

Even though it had been sorted out, it still looked a bit messy, which made him sigh.

"The aura comparison has been completed. It has been confirmed that the dragon king in the Dragon Palace on the lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the true dragon that overcame the tribulation on the East China Sea are the same existence. The auras of the two are exactly the same - Sun Mo, the commander of the Jinyi Guards."

The eldest prince nodded, and after this memorial, there was another detailed information.

"Nine Phoenixes - Yamata no Orochi, originated from the alien species of heaven and earth during the period of the First Emperor of Great Xia at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China. It is born with nine heads. Unless all nine heads are regenerated in sequence at once, the cycle can be repeated, and there are nine lives.

.

"Eight hundred years ago, the First Emperor sat down with his first alchemist, Chi Tai'a, and beheaded one of his heads. He was subsequently missing. The Nine Phoenixes and the Eight-Qi Serpent."

"Picture of the true dragon crossing the East China Sea."

"Above the East China Sea, a picture of the battle between the real dragon and Yamata no Orochi."

Seeing this latest memorial report, even the eldest prince's expression became strange.

Comparing several patterns, it was found that the Yamata-no-Orochi was exactly the same as the pattern left over eight hundred years ago, with no difference, even the ninth missing head was exactly the same.

What this represents is very intriguing.

The person who investigated the incident did not give any guesses, but just reported the situation truthfully.

As a member of the royal family, the eldest prince has already investigated the initial relevant situations and files from Daxia over the past few days, and knows more about the situation.

"Immortality...Xu Fu traveled eastward to the sea and obtained the elixir of life..."

The eldest prince's heart was filled with endless waves, not just because it involved the elixir of life.

He also thought about the second successor who appeared after the First Emperor of Great Xia disappeared.

The successor was unknown before, but inexplicably used an ancient sword named Qingshuang in the wilderness to kill a dragon that was about to become a real dragon.

At this point, it seems that the destiny belongs to him, boiling and rising all the way, and no one in the world can rival him.

In just three years, he swept the world and completed the unprecedented great cause of unifying the world. If we only talk about his talent and ability, few people in ancient times can compare with him at this step.

After all, even the First Emperor was a remnant of Fen Sixth Generation and was able to unify the world.

Before the First Emperor, six consecutive generations of top emperors with unparalleled strategies and strategies only lived for just a few decades. During this period, they worked hard and pushed the difficult-to-pace areas of this land step by step.

flat.

Killing powerful demon emperors one after another, and destroying strange places one after another, only in this way can the First Emperor establish the world.

And this later successor, in just three years, unified the world on his original basis, and even the overlord who was said to be unparalleled in domineering and brave in the world since ancient times died under his hands.

The rise of Zhao Chuhan is still a legend. No one knows why he suddenly possessed the body of a true dragon.

But now, combining the legends from ancient times with the present, the eldest prince's heart suddenly felt inexplicable.

"The dragon appears and undergoes the nine transformations of dragon and snake. After the dragon becomes a true dragon, it then competes with the terrifying Yamata no Orochi on the sea.

"Could it be that that person back then also obtained the complete copy of the Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake, so he forged the body of a true dragon, and with the power of the dragon, he soared into the sky and swept across the world."

The First Prince has already read the complete book of the Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake, and has read it many times. He knows that the key to practicing the Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake is the most special map among them.

Of course, there are some shortcuts, which is to use the dragon's inner elixir or blood essence to correct the bloodline step by step, so that one can become a true dragon faster.

Both can be done at the same time and are not contradictory.

Thinking of the dragon eight hundred years ago and the real dragon today, the eldest prince felt an inexplicable sense of urgency in his heart.

"Is there some mysterious connection between this? Is it the same as I guessed?"

No one could answer his question. No one dared to ask the eldest prince about speculation in this regard.

Obtaining the complete copy of the Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake can be said to be the common interest of all top aristocratic families and nobles, and everyone wants to obtain the complete copy.

But at the same time, almost everyone doesn't want others to get the cost of this, and they don't want others to know the deeper secrets involved in the Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake. There is no way to communicate in this regard. This is a dark forest.

Even the members of the royal family who had the closest relationship with each other in the past were unable to have any discussion in this regard, because after the emergence of the Dragon and Snake Nine Changes, all the royal families became competitors, and they all had the opportunity to board the platform.

The highest position.

Putting all the memorials in this aspect aside for the time being, the eldest prince rubbed his head and felt a little pain in his head.

He looked at another piece of information. This piece of information was not marked in red fonts, but in bold black fonts. This showed that this piece of information was somewhat important, but not very important.

"Patent? Drawing?"

The eldest prince looked at it twice and suddenly became interested again, because the drawings in this area were very delicate and detailed.

As for the benefits and various situations of the patent described by the other party, the eldest prince understood the truth at a glance, but he had no desire to actively promote it.

The obstacles are considerable. It is easy to supervise patents, but it is difficult to impose certain penalties on relevant personnel.

Jinyiwei and Liumen both have the ability to monitor the world, and they really have the strength to do it.

But whether these people will report truthfully is a question, especially - eh? The land of Jiangnan?

"But, Jiangnan?"

The eldest prince glanced down and discovered that the patent application came from Jiangnan, and it came from the person who had invented hybrid rice.

Seeing this, his eyes couldn't help but move.

It has always been difficult for the royal family's power to penetrate deeply into the land south of the Yangtze River. Now, through the Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake, there is a faint tendency to change this situation.

But the eldest prince is still considering what to do next.

Now that another patent has been mentioned to him, he feels that he can do something about it.

"The creator of fairy seeds applies for patent protection, just like protecting fairy seeds before. This is a good way to create income."

The eldest prince fell into deep thought. The patent was submitted to the so-called Patent Office, which is the Ministry of Industry. From then on, as long as the formal application is published, the insurance can be granted to any region in the world, and officials from various places provide certain

The money can be used.

Most of the money was collected in Kyoto, and a small amount was sent to the inventor who granted the patent.

The inventor of a patent often only gets one to five percent.

The imperial court benefited greatly from this.

The eldest prince had already tried the benefits of patents before. Now that he saw that there were new patents coming, and they were from Jiangnan, he became interested.

"It can be supported, but just relying on the prestige of the inventor of fairy seeds is not enough. These two patents are too few."

The eldest prince pondered for a moment, many people would give a little face to the inventor of the fairy food. After all, he really made it possible for hundreds of millions of people in Great Xia to have a mouthful of food.

Yes, it’s a bite of rice, not a full meal.

Except for the area in Jiujiang County that can be properly resettled, many people in other areas will still be charged heavy taxes.

The excess grain was still collected by local aristocratic families and the government.

Their condition will be a little better than before, but not much better. They will just be able to eat one more mouthful of food.

"To really let Jinyiwei and Liumen take action, there must be a more legitimate reason."

The eldest prince thought for a while and ordered the eunuch beside him who was specifically serving him.

"How many elixir formulas are used specifically for spiritual practice among the royal family?"

"Back to Your Highness, there are one thousand eight hundred and sixty-two elixir formulas used for marrow cleansing and blood exchange before entry. Among them, eight are specially provided to the royal family and are the most effective. They are all the most special elixirs developed over the years.

formula."

"Select one of them to use a lot of ingredients, and most of the ingredients are controlled by my royal family."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"What about the True Qi Mirror and True Yuan Realm?"

"There are so many formulas for elixirs that I can't count them all at once."

"Just like before the marrow-cleansing and blood-changing realm, we select the two most effective elixirs. The master realm must also have..."

After a pause, the eldest prince continued: "Is there a secret code for sanctification? Prepare a copy and enter it into the patent office together."

When the eldest prince heard this, his body was trembling, but he still bowed his head respectfully: "Yes!"

“Just do it!”

The eldest prince waved his hand, and his confidant immediately bowed and retreated. In this palace suspended above the sky, the eldest prince closed his eyes tiredly.

"Chaos is also an opportunity. I want to see who dares to use my royal family's patent!"

In the past, the eldest prince would never have done such a thing, but the emergence of the Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake gave him a huge sense of crisis.

Once the complete version of the Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake is disseminated on a large scale, and he has not determined the identity of the successor to the throne before then, there will be too many changes in the future.

"I must have made enough big moves before that, and I must have made enough achievements!"

The eldest prince's eyes became a little cold in such an environment. In the past ten years, he did not need to do too many actions. He only needed to remain elegant and easy-going. In this way, he could naturally gain the support of many civil servants.

You can achieve victory by maintaining this state gently. Now that the situation has changed too much, it is no longer possible to stick to the original rhythm. Changes must be made.

"The Land of the Rising Sun!"

The heavy bead curtains covered the face of the eldest prince. He looked towards the area along the southeastern coast, his eyes becoming very cold.

Other figures in the court may not have noticed much yet, but with a lot of information gathered to him, the eldest prince already had some guesses.

The Land of the Rising Sun should contain the secret of immortality left by the First Emperor, and may also possess the complete copy of the Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake.

The information has not yet been fully disclosed, so it will not have much impact.

When such news spreads, everyone in the court will react, and the final result will be only one, and only one war.

The eldest prince knew this clearly.

In the army, the most prestigious figures are basically from the side of the third prince.

This was a method used by his father to balance the situation.

Originally it wouldn't have much impact, after all, there haven't been many wars over the years.

The third prince's side is close to the military forces, but it will not cause too much trouble.

But now, something unexpected happened.
