Longevity: Never leave the mountain until you are invincible

After decades of accumulation, Chu Chen's chess pieces were scattered all over Dayan. Some of them were lost due to various reasons, but he still had dozens of chess pieces in his hand.

There is no shortage of chess pieces that have good character, good talent, and are expected to break through to the innate realm.

Select a few chess pieces that are loyal to him, let them eat the Seven Eclipse Poison Pills, and then give them the corresponding pills.

The chess pieces used in the training of the outer body will be given Qi and Blood Pills; the chess pieces used in the inner Qi training will be given the Inner Qi Pill and Qi Condensing Pill.

Of course, not all the chess pieces accepted Chu Chen's kindness, and two chess pieces rejected him.

Chu Chen didn't force them, there was no need.

In the end, including Lin Xuan, a total of six chess pieces accepted Chu Chen's kindness.

"Six chess pieces, if they can all break through the Xiantian realm, they will be useful."

Chu Chen was very satisfied with this result.

The six innate masters joining forces are enough to fight against the King of Inanimate Ones.

Even if he gave these six people some flying sword talismans, divine power talismans, and light body talismans, they might not be able to fight against the old monk at the sixth level of Qi training.

Leaving aside victory or defeat, at least he has the strength to fight.

As long as no hidden old monster appears, this force is fully qualified to sweep across the Great Yan Kingdom.

then.

Chu Chen returned to the imperial capital with satisfaction.

…

Xuande six years.

June.

The situation in Dayan becomes increasingly chaotic.

Emperor Xuande did not show the same ability as Emperor Yuan Zheng to eliminate all the ills of the Yan Kingdom and reorganize the country, as many scholars in Wenyuan Pavilion said.

On the contrary, most of Emperor Xuande's energy was involved in his relatives Qian, King Duan and King Wu.

With the support of Duke Weiyuan and many great scholars of Wenyuan Pavilion, Emperor Xuande took control of the imperial guards and had a certain degree of autonomy.

But that's it.

The army in the imperial capital is not only the Imperial Guards, but also the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division and the City Guards.

The Military and Horse Division of the Five Cities was controlled by his relative Qian, the City Guards were controlled by King Duan, and King Wu controlled the major gangs, martial arts schools and other forces in the imperial capital.

Under this situation, a situation was formed in the imperial capital where four forces were divided.

Emperor Xuande was considered the most powerful party because he controlled the imperial guards and Dongchang.

Several forces fought with each other, attacking and confronting each other in court and privately, which made the Yan court a mess. From time to time, some Yan court officials were imprisoned or died at home.

The atmosphere in the entire imperial capital became visibly tense, and the people were uneasy all day long.

If this is the case in the imperial capital, one can imagine the situation in other parts of the Yan Kingdom. Northern Xinjiang, Prince Kang's Mansion, Prince Jin's Mansion, and Wusheng Sect took this opportunity to develop rapidly.

For Emperor Xuande, most of the Yan court officials and people initially had great hopes.

As time goes by, everyone has only one evaluation of Emperor Xuande, which is exaggerated.

The so-called reincarnation of Emperor Yuan Zheng is just a flattering statement by the Wenyuan Pavilion bachelor.

"He is indecisive, his methods are inferior to those in the city, and he has no appearance of a ruler."

Shopkeeper Zhu of Yunxi Tower commented disappointedly on Emperor Xuande while chatting with Chu Chen.

Shopkeeper Zhu has always been a staunch supporter of the Dayan royal family, but now he has completely lost confidence in Emperor Xuande, which shows how disappointing Emperor Xuande is.

"The person in the imperial palace had several opportunities to break the current deadlock in the imperial capital and integrate the power of the entire imperial capital, but they were all wasted because of that person's indecision."

Shopkeeper Zhu said with hatred that iron cannot become steel.

Emperor Xuande had a soft temper, and he missed his family very much, and did not want to break up with the Queen Mother and others.

for example.

Emperor Xuande had the opportunity to uproot his cousin Qian's family before. After receiving the news, the Queen Mother went to Yangxin Palace in person and begged Emperor Xuande to spare his uncles.

As a result, the emperor agreed.

When the news came out, those who supported and did not support Emperor Xuande fell silent for a while.

"really."

Chu Chen smiled and responded to Shopkeeper Zhu.

Then, shopkeeper Zhu talked a few more words about state affairs and left the pawnshop angrily.

"The emperor can hardly stay in the capital anymore."

After closing the pawn shop door, Chu Chen rubbed his brows.

Emperor Xuande and others were fighting openly and secretly, making the situation in the imperial capital increasingly treacherous.

It even affected ordinary people in the imperial capital.

In the struggle among the high-level officials of the imperial capital, ordinary people and small figures were like ants, being crushed to death without anyone paying attention.

Although the transfer pawn shop will not be like this, it will inevitably attract the attention of all parties.

Because of the existence of Grandmaster Jealousy, Emperor Xuande and others focused on the transfer pawnshop and Chu Chen, hoping to win over Grandmaster Jealousy through Chu Chen.

If you can win over an innate grandmaster, it is likely to change the current situation of the imperial capital.

Emperor Xuande and others sent people to the pawnshop one after another to express their goodwill to Chu Chen and promised him various benefits, ranging from gold and silver beauties to high-ranking officials and generous salaries, which annoyed him.

"That's all, there are too many flies. Let's go to the Yunwu Mountains to avoid the limelight for the time being."

It happened that Chu Chen planned to go to the Yunwu Mountains to practice the fireball technique, in order to let the fireball technique break through the Xiaocheng realm.

He broke through the sixth level of Qi training and practiced fireball and healing techniques for some time.

The healing technique has already broken through to the Xiaocheng realm, but because the fireball technique was inconvenient to practice in the imperial capital, it failed to break through to the Xiaocheng realm.

At the same time, Chu Chen can also refine elixirs in the Yunwu Mountains, achieving many things in one fell swoop.

In order to train his chess pieces, he had consumed all the elixirs he had refined over the years, and was in urgent need of replenishing a wave of Qi-Blood Pills, Inner Qi Pills and Qi-Condensing Pills.

In order to cultivate innate masters in the future.

After thinking this, Chu Chen no longer hesitated, immediately packed up his things, took the mouse with him, and left the imperial capital.

Chu Chen's departure was just a small splash in the huge lake of the imperial capital. Although Emperor Xuande and others regretted missing the opportunity to win over a congenital master, they did not care too much.

After all, even if Chu Chen was won over, it might not be possible to pull the master of hatred into their own camp.

The seventh year of Xuande.

January.

Emperor Xuande was assassinated, but fortunately, the masters of the East Factory fought to protect him, and fortunately he was not seriously injured.

The assassin was captured and wanted to commit suicide by taking poison, but was stopped by the masters of the East Factory. He was taken to the East Factory prison for interrogation and forced to find out the identity of the assassin, who was a worshiper of the Prince Duan's Mansion.

As soon as the news came out, the imperial capital was shaken.

Emperor Xuande was furious and mobilized the imperial guards to surround the Prince Duan's Mansion.

Prince Duan wanted to mobilize the city guards to protect the Prince Duan's Mansion, but the former commander of the city guards, who was nearly 90 years old, was asked by Emperor Xuande to stop the city guards' actions.

All the people in the Prince Duan's Mansion were directly captured and thrown into the sky prison.

Emperor Xuande followed the royal family law of Dayan, stripped Prince Duan of his title, demoted him to a commoner, and exiled him to the frontier.

As for the rest of the group, they were all killed in the rage of Emperor Xuande.

Afterwards, there was a rumor that the incident at Prince Duan's Mansion was the result of Emperor Xuande's calculations.

For a time, many people in the court of Dayan who were loyal to Emperor Xuande were excited, thinking that Emperor Xuande had finally woken up and was no longer indecisive, and could revitalize Dayan.

However.

Reality soon proved that they thought too much.

Emperor Xuande was still Emperor Xuande. Facing his foreign relatives Qian and King Wu, he still acted with hesitation and worries.

Everyone then realized that Emperor Xuande's assassination might have been caused by Prince Duan, not by Emperor Xuande himself.

The turmoil in the imperial capital and Dayan continued, and there was no sign of stopping.

But these had nothing to do with Chu Chen. After returning to the cave in the Yunwu Mountains, he immersed himself in the great cause of cultivation.
