High Heaven, Prince Zi Chen's Mansion.
Shui Wuhen returned to the mansion with a tired body.
"Royal Father, this child has something to say to you!" An extremely handsome youth said to Shui Wuhen.
"Little Fist, what's the matter?" Shui Wuhen asked doubtfully.
Shui Quan was Shui Wuhen's son. He was Shui Wuhen's favorite son.
"It's very important. It concerns my Shui Family!" Shui Quan said solemnly.
"Oh? Then follow me to the study! "Shui Wuhen was slightly surprised.
Shui Wuhen had always been busy with political affairs and lacked discipline for his sons. His son could be considered a hedonistic son in High Heaven, but he didn't cause any big trouble, so Shui Wuhen didn't pay much attention to him. Why did he suddenly change today? Discussing family matters?
When they arrived at the study, Shui Quan waved away all the servants and set up a soundproof array.
"Speak, what's the matter?" Shui Wuhen asked doubtfully.
"Father, I heard that the envoy of Tai Chi Holy Court was summoned by you today?" Shui Quan said excitedly.
"Yes, I killed him!" Shui Wuhen nodded.
"Eh, why? Did that person say something wrong? "Shui Quan said somewhat anxiously.
"Eh?" Shui Wuhen's face became serious and his eyes became sharp.
After more than a hundred years of accumulated prestige, Shui Wuhen's prestige was extremely terrifying. However, Shui Quan pretended that he didn't see his beloved son.
"Father, we can't surrender to Tai Chi Holy Court. That would be letting down the world and the people from the small thousand worlds!" Shui Quan said.
"En!" Shui Wuhen nodded.
"But now that the Holy King is dead, if we continue to delay, it will only bring a greater disaster to the people. Father, after more than a hundred years of leadership, many ministers are now on your side. Why don't you take another step forward? No one will blame you, father! "Shui Quan said quickly.
"Unfilial son, what did you say?" Shui Wuhen glared at him and a vicious aura surged out.
The powerful vicious aura made Shui Quan's heart tremble and his face turn pale. However, he endured it and said, "I want father to proclaim himself emperor. The Holy King is already dead, so what's the use of guarding the Daikon State? There will be fewer and fewer ministers, and in the end, there will be nothing left. Father, please proclaim yourself emperor. I beg you! "
After saying that, Water Fist knelt on the ground with a thud.
Shui Wuhen's surging aura soared into the sky, and immediately broke through the study's array.
"Unfilial son, I will chop you into pieces today!"
An explosive shout resounded throughout the entire Water Manor. Immediately, a large number of people from the Water Mansion gathered around.
"Master, master, don't!" Suddenly a woman rushed over and hugged Shui Wuhen. She wailed with tears in her eyes.
"Get out of the way! Today, I will chop this unfilial son into pieces!" Shui Wuhen said furiously.
"Little Fist, how did you offend your father? Hurry up and apologize to your father! "The woman turned her head and shouted at the Water Fist.
"That's right, Brother Fist. Hurry up and apologize to Father. Hurry!" The Water Fist's group of brothers shouted.
"I didn't do anything wrong. Father, you are too pedantic. You are blindly loyal. The Holy King is already dead. Millions of people have seen it, and there are records of it. Moreover, the heavenly luck is gone. Why do you still want to protect the Daikon State? As long as Father is willing, the ministers of the Daikon State will definitely support Father to become emperor. Father, I beg you! "Water Fist shouted loudly.
When Water Fist shouted, everyone fell silent. Clearly, these people all wanted Shui Wuhen to proclaim himself emperor. The Water Fist's brothers all looked on anxiously. Right now, he was only a prince. Once Shui Wuhen became emperor, he would be the crown prince!
The woman who was hugging Shui Wuhen also had a look of anticipation. Once Shui Wuhen became emperor, she would change from a princess to an empress.
"Rebellion? Rebellion? I said in the imperial court that if anyone dares to have thoughts of rebellion, their nine generations will be executed! Men, drag Water Fist out of the Southern Heavenly Gate and behead him in public. When the Holy King returns, I will apologize with my death! "Shui Wuhen said furiously.
When Shui Wuhen said that, everyone panicked. They knew that Shui Wuhen was blindly loyal, but they didn't expect him to be so stubborn and blindly loyal. He wanted to kill his own son?
"Lord, Lord, please don't! He is your most beloved son, Lord!" The woman wailed.
"Father, please spare Brother Fist!" The princes quickly begged for mercy in fear. At the same time, the thoughts that were similar to Water Fist's immediately disappeared.
Water Fist looked on dumbfoundedly.
"What are you waiting for? Behead him!" Shui Wuhen shouted to the two imperial guards.
"Yes!" The two imperial guards quivered.
Behead the princes? They could be considered to have gained some knowledge. In their hearts, they admired this Prince Zi Chen even more.
"Father, Father, I'm Quan 'er!" Water Fist finally knew fear.
"No matter who you are, rebel, die!" Shui Wuhen said angrily.
"Mother, save me! Brothers, save me!" Water Fist was now fearfully asking for help everywhere. He knew his father's character. He really, really wanted to behead him!
"Lord, you can't behead him! You can't behead him!" The woman immediately shouted.
"You also want to disobey me?" Shui Wuhen glared.
"No, no, the Holy King, the Holy King left behind a death-free gold medallion. When Fist was born, the Holy King came to congratulate him and gave Fist a death-free gold medallion. It can protect Fist from death! Lord, you can't disobey the Holy King, you can't! "The woman immediately cried.
"I have a death-free gold medallion, I have it!" Water Fist panicked and immediately took out a golden medallion.
On the medallion, the words' death-free 'written by Zhong Shan appeared. A few years ago, when he heard the news of Zhong Shan's death, he didn't take it seriously anymore. He had always thrown it in a corner of his storage bracelet. Now, he didn't expect it to save his life.
"Father, I was wrong, I was wrong!" Water Fist kept shouting.
Looking at the death-free gold medallion, Shui Wuhen took a deep breath. Speaking of which, Water Fist was his favorite son. However, the law of the country was as important as the heavens, but the Holy King's holy order was even more important. Death exemption, he had no choice. Shui Wuhen secretly sighed in his heart.
"Since it's a death-free gold medallion, you can avoid death, but you can't escape punishment. Send Water Fist to the World Peak and hand him over to Tian Lao. Let him open the Hundred Eras Paradise and suffer a hundred eras!" Shui Wuhen said.
Hundred eras? Those who knew about the Hundred Eras Paradise felt their hearts tighten. A hundred eras of suffering, how big of a torment was that? However, since their lives were saved, no one dared to say anything more.
Water Fist was sent to the World Peak!
The World Peak was the place where the Son Of Heaven and other experts of the Tian Family went into seclusion. After Zhong Shan left the High Heaven, Tian Lao had been living here. He never stepped into the political arena and never took action unless invited by Shui Wuhen.
After Tian Lao learned of the situation, he straightforwardly sent Water Fist to the Hundred Eras Paradise.
Seeing Water Fist enter, Tian Lao nodded and said, "Shui Wuhen, you have given a lot of thought. Hundred eras of suffering, I hope you can grow up after this!"
After sending away his son, Water Fist, no one in the Shui Residence dared to mention this topic again. Shui Wuhen's heart was very depressed. He returned to the imperial palace alone and stood in the Long Life Palace.
Looking at Zhong Shan's throne, it was as if Zhong Shan was sitting on the throne.
"Holy King, the Daikon State is in chaos, what should I do? After guarding for five years, I am physically and mentally exhausted. However, I will still persevere! "
"However, it's too difficult. The Daikon State's officials, soldiers, citizens, and the world's hearts are all in chaos. What should I do? Holy King, it's been five years. If you are still here, send me a message! "
… … …
… …
Shui Wuhen talked about the depression in his heart alone. The Daikon State was about to fall. Although Water Fist's words were very repulsive, it wasn't completely fabricated. Five years, there had been no news of the Holy King for five years. Everyone said that he was dead. However, Shui Wuhen had persevered until now because she hadn't seen his corpse.
"Holy King, before you left, you handed over the Daikon State to me. Give me an explanation … uh, an explanation?" The depressed Shui Wuhen raised his eyebrows.
"Shui Wuhen!" Zhong Shan shouted.
"Your servant is here!"
"Shui Wuhen, Daikon State's Fifth Army Commander. From today onwards, I confer upon you the title of 'Prince Zi Chen'. You are the first prince of the Daikon State to not have a surname. You are to guard the Daikon State on behalf of me. During my absence, you are to temporarily take charge of the Daikon State! Zhong Shan once again took out a purple seal.
"When you encounter difficulties that you can't face, ask yourself, 'What do I hope for!'."
The scenes from a hundred years ago once again replayed in Shui Wuhen's mind.
"Difficulties that I can't face? Isn't it now? What do I hope for? What do I hope for? "Shui Wuhen murmured.
"What I hope for is that the Holy King isn't dead! The Holy King isn't dead? "Shui Wuhen's eyes suddenly widened.
The Holy King isn't dead? The moment she came to this conclusion, Shui Wuhen was shocked. Could it be that the Holy King had predicted this and deliberately said it?
"Prince Zi Chen? 'Purple' means nobility, 'Chen' means house. The Holy King wants me to protect the Daikon State? Block all storms? No, no! "Shui Wuhen frowned.
She originally thought that the purpose of her title was to protect the Daikon State, but now it seemed that it wasn't that simple.
Prince Zi Chen? Zi Chen? Shui Wuhen quickly searched through her memories.
In an instant, Shui Wuhen thought of a person. When she thought of that person, Shui Wuhen sucked in a breath of cold air. Sure enough, it was too secretive.
Zi Chen? Grandmaster Zi Chen! In the past, when Zhong Shan was at the Golden Core stage, he had arrived at Wushuang City to help Shui Wuhen's father gain votes for the city lord. Among them, he had found an archery grandmaster, Grandmaster Zi Chen, and used his arrows to frame Shui Wuhen. At that time, Zhong Shan had come up with many schemes. Even if Shui Wuhen knew everything at that time, she couldn't tell which was fake and which was real. In the end, Zhong Shan won and defeated all the candidates in one fell swoop.
"The Holy King means that the real and the fake, the fake and the real, only by persevering to the end can the outcome be seen. In the end, the Holy King won, indicating the return of the Holy King?" Shui Wuhen's eyes widened.
"The Holy King is still alive, and he wants me to protect him until he returns? The Holy King will definitely return in the end! "Shui Wuhen said excitedly.
After figuring out Zhong Shan's riddle, Shui Wuhen's face immediately bloomed with excitement. Her originally tired face seemed to have relaxed a lot in an instant.
"Yes, the Holy King's mysteries can't be determined by the guesses of those ordinary people. Holy King, I will do my best to protect you until the Holy King returns!" Shui Wuhen respectfully promised to Zhong Shan's Nine Dragons Heavenly Throne.
PS: The first riddle, there are still two more! Everyone, guess! (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters. Support the author, support the original reading!)
