Qingyun Dao Sect.
Xiao Muxue drank the wine, her eyes full of doubts.
She was curious about why the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty would come to such a place.
But in an instant, she guessed something.
"Tenth Prince?"
A hint of curiosity appeared in her eyes.
However, immediately afterward, Xiao Muxue gulped down a mouthful of wine and couldn't help but mutter to herself.
"Is Su Changyu really the Tenth Prince? If that's the case, things will get interesting. "
Xiao Muxue thought to herself.
But in the next moment, she couldn't help but shake her head.
"However, it doesn\'t matter whether Changyu is the Tenth Prince or not now. The matter of the Immortal King relic is the most important. I hope that others won\'t take the fruits of our labor."
Xiao Muxue muttered to herself. After a while, she walked toward the sect without saying a word.
Not long after.
Xiao Muxue arrived at the Qingyun Dao Sect.
Xiao Muxue was slightly taken aback by the drastic change in the Dao Sect.
In particular, when she saw Daoist Tai Hua giving various commands, Xiao Muxue couldn't help but feel even more bewildered.
"Mu Xue, you're here too? Let's see how our sect is doing. "
Daoist Tai Hua was a little surprised to see Xiao Muxue appear. He then walked over and pointed at the buildings excitedly.
"Sect Leader, be honest. How much silver did you borrow?"
Xiao Muxue asked.
In an instant, Daoist Tai Hua's face turned sullen.
How much silver did he borrow?
Am I, Taihua, that kind of person?
Seeing the look on Daoist Tai Hua's face, Xiao Muxue didn't continue to dwell on the topic.
"Is Junior Brother back?"
Xiao Muxue asked.
"He's back. Why are you looking for him?"
Daoist Tai Hua asked curiously.
"Yes."
Xiao Muxue did return this time to look for Ye Ping because there was something that she had to ask Ye Ping to do.
"Then I advise you to stop looking."
Daoist Tai Hua said meaningfully.
"Why?"
For a moment, Xiao Muxue was curious.
"When Ping 'er came back, I helped her read her fortune. I found that Ping' er might be in trouble soon."
"Don't tell me you want him to go out? If that's the case, I'll be the first to object. "
Daoist Tai Hua said with an extremely serious expression.
"Disaster?"
Xiao Muxue frowned slightly.
"That's right. I've given him a piece of luck. The divination shows great misfortune. I've been trying to think of a way to help him resolve this divination."
Daoist Tai Hua nodded and said so.
Xiao Muxue heaved a sigh of relief.
Obviously, his matter should be in the bag.
"Mu Xue, what are you doing? Don\'t go and look for Ping\ 'er. You don\'t return to the sect often and you\'re probably stirring up trouble outside. Don\'t bring Ye Ping along with you. "
At this moment, before Daoist Tai Hua could finish speaking, Xiao Muxue had already left, making Daoist Tai Hua a little anxious.
Ye Ping really had an inauspicious divination. If he really brought it out and got into trouble, who would be responsible?
However, Xiao Muxue ignored Daoist Tai Hua and simply left the place.
At the rear cliff of Qingyun.
Xiao Muxue walked over slowly.
She looked at Ye Ping who was on the rear cliff with a bewildered expression.
It was because she really couldn't understand what Ye Ping was trying to do.
However, Xiao Muxue didn't disturb Ye Ping. Instead, she sat at the side and watched quietly.
She actually came over this time to ask Ye Ping for help with something.
Instead of saying that he was asking Ye Ping for help, it would be better to say that he was giving Ye Ping an opportunity.
The ruins of an Immortal King were about to appear.
This was a relic that even the five dynasties dreamed of.
Initially, the discovery of the Immortal King's relic had nothing to do with Ye Ping, but when they discovered that the Immortal King's relic contained an ancient Spirit Locking Array.
After stepping into the ruins, no matter how strong you were, your cultivation would be suppressed to the Golden Core Realm.
Because of this, the five dynasties and the major forces were doing their best to nurture Golden Core elites.
There was still a year's time before the opening of the Immortal King Ruins.
Xiao Muxue came over this time precisely to bring Ye Ping through hellish training.
It was because she believed in Ye Ping's strength.
At this moment, Xiao Muxue was staring at Ye Ping who was not far away. Her eyes flickered with golden light as she instantly saw through Ye Ping.
"His Qi and blood are like a true dragon, and his Dao technique is like an ancient bell. What cultivation technique is Junior Brother cultivating?"
"Be it his physical body or his Dao techniques, they are both unbelievably strong."
"Even if he is an elite, generally speaking, he won't be able to reach Junior Brother's level if he specializes in one."
Xiao Muxue was shocked.
Be it his physical body or Dao techniques, Ye Ping was extremely strong.
It was incredible, and she could even say that he was a freak.
The only thing that made Xiao Muxue a little silent was why Ye Ping was constantly picking up and putting down his sword.
'What is he doing? '
'He can comprehend the Dao too? '
Her eyes were full of curiosity.
Just like that, a full four hours passed.
At this moment …
In the Great Xia Dynasty Palace.
Crown Prince Xia Qian was seated in the main hall.
Under the main hall, a eunuch was standing below and speaking respectfully and obsequiously.
"Congratulations Crown Prince, congratulations Crown Prince!"
The eunuch knelt on the ground, looking extremely excited.
"Oh? Eunuch Li, what's the big news? Is it worth you coming to see me? "
Hearing this, Xia Qian couldn't help but stand up and look at Eunuch Li in front of him.
His eyes were full of curiosity.
Eunuch Li was a guard eunuch in front of his father. Although he wasn't a popular figure, he was at least someone in front of him. Since he came to congratulate him, he definitely had something to say.
"Crown Prince, a few days ago, His Majesty asked the people of the clothing factory to rush to make more than ten sets of robes."
"They were all made according to His Majesty's specifications. I thought to myself, who else in this world can make clothes on such a scale apart from His Majesty?"
"After thinking about it, I feel that only the Crown Prince is worthy of it."
Eunuch Li chuckled and said that he had come to congratulate the Crown Prince.
As soon as he said that, Xia Qian couldn't help but be overjoyed. Although he had the power to supervise the nation, he obviously didn't know about the dynasty's clothing manufacturing.
Now that he heard Eunuch Li's words, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
However, Xia Qian couldn't help but speak hesitantly.
"Father might have asked someone to make the clothes for him, but why do you think it must be for me, Eunuch Li?"
The Crown Prince was a little curious. Making clothes wasn't something strange or strange.
He was a little curious as to why Ye Ping had to say that it was for him.
"Your Highness, you might not understand this, right?"
"I'm always by His Majesty's side. Putting aside the fact that His Majesty doesn't need to add any more clothes, even if His Majesty wants them, he doesn't have to ask. Every year, the Four Seasons Clothing Factory will prepare countless new clothes for His Majesty."
"Besides, if His Majesty wants to make clothes, why does he need to give the order personally?"
Eunuch Li's words made Xia Qian even more delighted.
However, he was still a little curious.
"But why does Father want to reward me with new clothes?"
Xia Qian continued to ask.
"That must be because His Majesty is touched by the hard work of supervising the nation, Crown Prince. Hence, he specially asked the clothing factory to make clothes for you."
Eunuch Li smiled.
As soon as he said that, Xia Qian couldn't hide the smile on his face anymore.
"Hahaha, since that's the case, thank you very much, Eunuch Li."
As he spoke, Xia Qian waved his hand, and in an instant, a jade appeared in Eunuch Li's hand.
It was a Psychic Jade that was specially used as a reward for the nobles of the Great Xia Dynasty.
The Psychic Jade was an exclusive item of the royal family. It was not extremely rare, but there weren't many either. It could speed up the cultivation of cultivators and was naturally precious to those who were not part of the royal family.
To the royal family, it was best to use it as a reward.
"Thank you, Your Highness. Thank you, Your Highness."
After receiving the benefits, Eunuch Li naturally beamed and bowed to the Crown Prince.
"It's just a small token of appreciation. Eunuch Li, you have to put in a good word for me in front of my father."
Xia Qian said politely.
That was his way of life. He almost never made an enemy of anyone because in his eyes, as long as it wasn't a great feud, he would basically not take the initiative to provoke others.
His goal was to become the emperor, so he was very clear about what he wanted to do and what he didn't want to do.
He could please a servant for the sake of the throne, but he knew that as long as he ascended to the throne, all the pleasantries would be worth it.
At most, he would just kill these people. Wouldn't that be enough?
Eunuch Li left with a smile.
Xia Qian also sat in his seat with a smile. He didn't care about this matter at all.
It was just a few pieces of clothes. Even if his father had made them for him, he wouldn't feel anything.
As long as he didn't give them to others, he wouldn't care.
The reason why he gave them to Eunuch Li was entirely because Eunuch Li came to look for him as soon as he got the news.
Since he had such intentions, it meant that Eunuch Li supported him.
Since he supported him, he didn't mind giving him a Psychic Jade.
After all, it didn't matter how many things he gave him now.
As long as he ascended to the throne, the entire Great Xia Dynasty would belong to him.
No matter how much he gave, it was nothing compared to the treasury of the entire Great Xia Dynasty.
Five minutes later.
In the Heart-Nurturing Palace.
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty put on a black dragon robe and his aura changed drastically.
Sitting in the main hall, he was like a divine mountain that would make one feel inexplicably fearful.
At this moment, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was the true emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.
He was the majestic emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.
"Li Gui."
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty's voice sounded in the main hall.
Soon, Eunuch Li walked over.
He stepped into the main hall, looking extremely nervous.
No matter how many times he met the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, he would always get nervous. After all, he was the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.
However, despite his panic, Li Gui still slowly walked over and knelt on the ground.
The difference was that Li Si did not need to kneel down when he met the Crown Prince, but when he met the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, he had to kneel on the ground. That was the biggest difference between the Crown Prince and the emperor.
"Has the matter of Shangyi Textile been settled?"
In the Heart-Nurturing Palace, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was sitting on his seat and reviewing the memorials without even looking at Li Si.
"Your Majesty, Shangyi Textile is expected to complete the work within three days. When the time comes, I will have someone send it to the Crown Prince's residence."
Li Gui knelt on the ground, speaking like this, not going overboard in the slightest.
However, as soon as he said that, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty couldn't help but say indifferently.
"Who said anything about sending it to the crown prince's residence?"
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty asked Li Si calmly.
Hearing this, Li Gui was instantly stunned.
Not for the Crown Prince?
Then who was it for?
There was one more thing that he did not tell the Crown Prince, and that was the clothes that the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty had ordered were more youthful. Hence, he concluded that it was for the Crown Prince.
However, he didn't expect the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty to say that it was not for the Crown Prince.
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty, I deserve to die. I was too presumptuous, please spare my life, Your Majesty."
Li Gui knelt on the ground and shivered in fear.
Looking at Li Gui who was on the ground, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty remained emotionless. However, in an instant, he saw the Spiritual Jade in Li Gui's spatial ring.
Soon, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty had a look of disgust in his eyes.
There was a deep sense of disgust.
What did emperors hate the most?
They hated it when people tried to rope in the people around them.
However, what did they hate more? What they hated more was that the people around them would be roped in.
However, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty understood that he was about to abdicate, so his subordinates naturally had ulterior motives. If it had been twenty years ago, Li Gui probably wouldn't have accepted it even if the Crown Prince gave him many benefits.
Now that he dared to accept the Crown Prince's benefits, he obviously wanted to side with the Crown Prince.
However, that was not the reason why he was disgusted.
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty wouldn't be disgusted by such a trivial matter.
It was mainly because he thought of Su Changyu, his ten sons who could take Gu Jianxian in as a disciple without saying a word. Unknowingly, he could even become the Senior Brother of the big shots of the Supervisory Academy.
'Look at my son, he even wants to please a eunuch. '
'It's really disgusting. '
"Send all the clothes made by the Shang Yi Textile Factory to Taishang Xuanji. Just leave the items to Taishang Xuanji. Go and call the Crown Prince over."
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty said in an emotionless tone.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Li Gui stood up and then hurriedly walked out of the hall. His heart was pounding, and he felt like he had survived a calamity.
However, at this moment, Li Gui also knew that he was too anxious.
He was really too anxious.
Although the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was about to abdicate, he still had at least ten years to go. In the eyes of the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, he was like a traitor.
Fortunately, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty didn't care about that. Otherwise, he would have already died thousands of times.
At this moment, Li Gui completely understood why the ministers of the Great Xia Dynasty didn't dare to participate in the battle of succession.
Fifteen minutes passed.
Xia Qian appeared outside the Heart-Nurturing Palace.
"Father."
Xia Qian's tone was calm and neither humble nor arrogant as he shouted towards the hall.
"Come in."
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty said indifferently.
At that moment, Xia Qian slowly walked into the Heart-Nurturing Palace.
Stepping into the main hall, Xia Qian's heart was calm. As the Crown Prince, there was nothing for him to be afraid of.
"On the second day of the first month, the Fiendcelestial Cult raided the Li Nation and there were countless casualties."
"On the 15th day of the first month, there was a disaster in the Sea of Heavenly Luck and 20 treasure ships were destroyed."
"On the 19th day of the first month, there was a small victory in the border conflict."
In the Heart-Nurturing Palace, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty's voice was extremely calm and his words echoed in the main hall.
After hearing those voices, Crown Prince Xia Qian couldn't help but fall silent.
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty stopped speaking.
In the next moment, he swept the memorials on the table onto the ground.
In an instant, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty stood up with unconcealable anger in his eyes.
"Xia Qian! Do you know what you've done wrong? "
His thunderous voice frightened Xia Qian so much that his face turned pale.
He took a deep breath and clenched his fists, hoping to calm himself down. However, standing in front of the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty and his father, Xia Qian couldn't calm down at all.
"I know my mistake, please forgive me, Father."
Xia Qian knelt on the ground with his head lowered, his heart thumping wildly.
"Know your mistake? Tell me what you've done wrong then. "
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty's voice became calm again, but the calmness was even more frightening.
As soon as he said that, Xia Qian spoke slowly.
"I didn't supervise the nation properly and caused a series of disasters in the Great Xia Dynasty."
Xia Qian said.
"You didn't supervise the nation properly?"
"Hah, you didn't supervise the nation properly."
"You really won't shed a tear until you see your coffin."
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty sneered, making Xia Qian's face turn even paler.
"Ever since I made you supervise the nation three years ago, you handled everything properly in the first year."
"However, in the second year, you changed. You used your responsibility to check the memorials and gain insight into business opportunities. You even made a fortune during the crisis."
"I tolerated you back then."
"I know that as the Crown Prince, you have a lot of things to do, and I know that you need to win people over. I also know that your expenses are huge."
"However, in the third year, when you saw that I didn't care about you, you became even more greedy and even started to take advantage of me."
"However, you know what? Even if you do that, I won't be angry. "
"Because you're the Crown Prince and you need money, you might have affected some people by doing that, but no matter what, it doesn't affect the entire Great Xia Dynasty."
"Do you know what exactly you did wrong?"
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty stated clearly what Xia Qian had done.
However, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was not angry at all.
The reason being, the Crown Prince, Xia Qian, was only accumulating wealth, but to the Great Xia Dynasty, the wealth that the Crown Prince had accumulated was not much at all.
What really made him furious was something else.
"Father, please enlighten me, I really don't know."
Knowing that the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was not angry at him for accumulating wealth, Xia Qian somehow panicked even more. He didn't know what else he had done wrong.
"Enlighten me?"
"Okay, I'll enlighten you."
"In order to stabilize your position, you took the initiative to befriend the Great Ze Dynasty."
"However, what you shouldn't have done is actually inform the Great Ze Dynasty about the non-poisonous pill formula."
"This item involves the foundation of the Great Xia Dynasty!"
"Besides, you're the Crown Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, yet you're so respectful to the Great Ze Dynasty?"
"You've really thrown the face of the Great Xia Dynasty."
"Even though the current Great Xia Dynasty is indeed inferior to the Great Ze Dynasty, both of them are dynasties."
"You're so respectful to the Great Ze Dynasty today, but after you ascend the throne tomorrow, are you going to make the Great Xia Dynasty a subsidiary state of the Great Ze Dynasty?"
At this point, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty's voice was thunderous.
The Crown Prince was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground.
His face was filled with astonishment.
The reason being, he could guarantee that his father would definitely not know about the deal with the Great Ze Dynasty.
However, he didn't expect his father to actually know about it.
'This … this … this is unbelievable. '
At this moment …
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty's voice sounded again, making Xia Qian freeze in shock.
"You're acting so recklessly. Do you really think that I don't dare to replace the crown prince?"
His voice sounded.
The hall fell into a deathly silence in an instant.
