Longevity: Never leave the mountain until you are invincible

"Respectfully report to the master, one month ago, I found a hollowed-out mineral vein somewhere in the Barbarian Grassland. The mineral vein is very deep and goes straight into the ground. In the deepest part of the mineral vein, I found these four crystals."

"The crystals look ordinary, but wearing them can relieve fatigue and treat old injuries."

"I think this crystal is extraordinary and suspected to be a fairy thing. I hereby present it to the master."

This is the content of the letter left by Wanyan Shilie.

"Hollowed-out mineral vein, spiritual stone vein?"

Chu Chen's eyes condensed, and he quickly reacted to the content mentioned in the travel notes of Jinhua Taoist.

The mineral vein found by Wanyan Shilie is likely to be a spiritual stone vein that produces spiritual stones.

It's a pity that it has been hollowed out.

"However, there are traces of spiritual stone veins in the Barbarian Grassland. Perhaps there are still small spiritual stone veins somewhere in the Barbarian Grassland. If I can find them, it can help me practice."

Chu Chen was thoughtful.

Geographically speaking, the Barbarian Grassland is closer to the interior of the Tianhuang Continent than the Great Yan Kingdom, and there may be spirit stone veins.

He immediately sent a letter of divorce, asking Wanyan Shilie to search for the traces of the spirit stone veins, and attached a reward of spirit stones for Wanyan Shilie to offer, a top-notch marrow refining technique.

Chu Chen promised in the letter that if Wanyan Shilie could find the spirit stone veins, he could come to the Great Yan Kingdom, and he would personally cleanse his marrow and veins and change his bones.

After doing this, Chu Chen no longer cared about it.

The search for spirit stone veins could not be completed in one day, and it still needed to wait slowly.

With his promise, I think Wanyan Shilie would do his best to search for spirit stone veins.

…

Hongguang thirty-fifth year, March 11, evening.

Yangxin Palace.

The rich smell of herbs filled the entire hall, and a few slight coughs came from the emperor's couch from time to time.

Emperor Hongguang was lying on the bed, with a emaciated body and a pale face. Two masters from the East Factory kept sending internal energy into his body, barely maintaining his life.

"Boom~"

The heavy door of the palace was pushed open, and Prince Wu, dressed in a white shirt, walked into the hall.

He bowed and said, "Son, I greet my father."

"Wu'er, you are finally back. Come forward and let me take a good look!"

Hearing Prince Wu's voice, Emperor Hongguang was shocked and reluctantly raised his right hand.

"Father."

Prince Wu did not dare to neglect it and stepped forward to hold Emperor Hongguang's hand.

It was like the hand of a dead tree, without a trace of warmth, only a piercing cold.

Prince Wu was shocked. Before entering the palace, although he heard his mother mention it, he never thought that Emperor Hongguang's condition was so bad.

If it were not for the masters of the East Factory who forcibly used internal energy to prolong Emperor Hongguang's life, I am afraid that Emperor Hongguang would have died long ago and buried in the imperial mausoleum, and it would be impossible for him to hold on until he returned to the court.

"Wu'er, you really didn't disappoint me. You led the army to pacify the northern border and drove the barbarians out of Dayan. You have accomplished something that I have not accomplished. You are worthy of being my son!"

Emperor Hongguang's face was flushed. When he was excited, he couldn't help but cough violently.

Prince Wu hurried forward and injected internal energy to calm Emperor Hongguang's breath: "Father, don't be excited. I was able to pacify the northern border only because of your merits.

If it weren't for the foundation accumulated by your father over the years, I would not be able to pacify the northern border."

"Don't comfort me. I know my own abilities. I am just a mediocre talent. I relied on my mother, your grandmother, to ascend the throne in the past."

Emperor Hongguang shook his head with all his strength.

"In terms of imperial power, I am not as good as my eldest brother; in terms of marching and fighting, I am not as good as you, my son, nor as good as my second brother; in terms of handling government affairs, I am also not as good as my third brother.

Therefore, after ascending the throne, I have been diligent and have not dared to be negligent, fearing that my Great Yan Dynasty would fall. Fortunately, you, my son, can make me feel at ease."

Emperor Hongguang's eyes were filled with reminiscence, and he muttered to himself, his eyes seemed a little distracted.

"Father!"

Prince Wu was immediately shocked and hurriedly increased the speed of transmitting internal energy.

"Wu'er, my ability may not be as good as yours, but there is one thing that I am better than you, and it is also the last thing I want to teach you."

Emperor Hongguang was stimulated by his internal energy and forced himself to cheer up. He shouted in a deep voice: "Come in."

The door of the Yangxin Palace was opened again, and an old eunuch in a gray robe with gray hair and a hunched body walked into the Yangxin Palace.

"Eunuch Yun."

Prince Wu recognized this old eunuch in a gray robe. He was the eunuch in charge of the seal beside Emperor Hongguang.

It is said that he has been following Emperor Hongguang since he was a child. He has achieved great success in his marrow refining and is only half a step away from breaking through the Xiantian realm and becoming a master.

"Royal brother?!"

When Prince Wu's eyes fell on the person held by Eunuch Yun's right hand, his expression suddenly changed.

The person held by Eunuch Yun was none other than his half-brother, Prince Fu.

"Father, what are you doing?"

Prince Wu was startled and looked at Emperor Hongguang on the imperial bed.

"While you were leading troops to pacify the northern border, Prince Fu secretly contacted a group of court officials with the intention of subverting the court. You should know about this, right?"

Emperor Hongguang did not care about Prince Wu's shock, but stared at Prince Wu and asked.

"This... is."

Facing Emperor Hongguang's gaze, Prince Wu's expression was a little unnatural.

He naturally knew what Prince Fu did. Every day someone would advise him to take action against Prince Fu.

But he didn't want to do it, and he was unwilling to do it.

No matter what, Prince Fu is his younger brother.

"Wu'er, you must remember that as an emperor, you are the only one who can rule the country. You must not be lenient or you will suffer endless troubles. This is the last thing I will teach you!"

Emperor Hongguang said word by word.

Said.

He used all his strength to raise his right hand and waved it down hard.

"No!"

Prince Wu was horrified and wanted to stop him, but it was too late. He saw Eunuch Yun twist his right hand, and there was a sound of bones breaking, and King Fu made no more noise.

Seeing this scene in front of him, Prince Wu widened his eyes with a look of disbelief on his face.

"Father, why?"

Prince Wu looked at Emperor Hongguang and wanted to ask Emperor Hongguang why he did this.

However, at some point, Emperor Hongguang had closed his eyes forever.

The two Dongchang masters who were trying to save Emperor Hongguang's life also committed suicide by taking poison and knelt down in front of the emperor's bed.

"In the thirty-fifth year of Hongguang, on the night of March 11th, Prince Wu returned victorious and talked with Emperor Hongguang all night long. However, King Fu had evil intentions and colluded with two masters of Dongchang to assassinate Emperor Hongguang and the prince.

Fortunately, with the help of Yunsheng, the eunuch of the palm seal, King Fu and the two masters of Dongchang were killed. Emperor Hongguang was so furious that the prince conspired to rebel, and he died suddenly on the emperor's bed. "

Eunuch Yun walked up to Prince Wu and said, "What happened tonight will be recorded in the history books."

"After today, His Highness the Crown Prince will be the new emperor of the Yan Kingdom. Please bear in mind His Majesty's last words."

Say it.

Eunuch Yun suddenly looked back and shouted: "Come quickly, there are assassins!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the palace was shaken.

Xu Shi Hongguang Emperor had already given the order, and what happened next, just as Eunuch Yun said, the matter of Prince Fu's rebellion was quickly concluded without anyone questioning it.

Prince Wu watched the whole process blankly, like a puppet on strings.

When he wakes up, surprising changes may occur.

But whether this change is good or bad, who can say for sure?
