"This servant obeys." The head eunuch hurriedly nodded and shouted, "Prepare the carriage for Jingren Palace."
After the time it took to burn a stick of incense, the head eunuch announced, "Your Majesty has arrived at Jingren Palace." The group of people arrived at a magnificent palace.
Wang Changsheng directly walked in. When the eunuchs and palace maids saw Wang Changsheng, they all knelt down, not daring to raise their heads.
"Your servant welcomes Your Majesty." A beautiful woman in a palace dress knelt in front of the door.
The woman in the palace dress looked to be in her twenties. Her skin was white as snow, her face was oval, her lips were cherry, her eyebrows were curved, and her figure was graceful. She was a great beauty.
Wang Changsheng only glanced at the woman in the palace dress and said, "Rise! I heard that my beloved concubine is proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. I want to hear my beloved concubine play a song. "After saying this, Wang Changsheng walked into the room.
Li Guiren sat to the side and took a deep breath. Her jade fingers began to move smoothly on the guqin. A beautiful sound slowly flowed out. Sometimes it was as slow as a spring, sometimes it was as fast as a waterfall, sometimes it was as clear as pearls falling on a jade plate, and sometimes it was as low as a whisper.
Wang Changsheng did not know how to play the guqin, but when he heard Li Guiren's song, he nodded to himself.
Wang Changsheng lay on the bed comfortably, eating the fruits from the Western Region and listening to the beautiful sound of the guqin. He was very happy.
But this was all an illusion. He was actually observing everyone around him. What surprised him was that everyone's face was unusually respectful, and there was no change.
"Okay, okay, stop! My beloved concubine. "Wang Changsheng waved his hand, indicating for Li Guiren to stop.
"What is it, Your Majesty? Did I not play well?" Li Guiren heard this and immediately stopped. She said nervously.
"No, you played very well. I want to ask you a question."
"Your Majesty, ask away! I will tell you everything I know. "Li Guiren nodded and said respectfully. [△. ai

"Tell me, is there really anyone in this world who can live for ten thousand years?" When he said this, Wang Changsheng stared at Li Guiren in front of him, trying to figure out something.
"There is! The Lord of Ten Thousand Years will live for ten thousand years, "Li Guiren replied with a smile.
Wang Changsheng stared at Li Guiren for a while, but didn't find anything unusual. Only then did he withdraw his gaze.
"Wow …" Wang Changsheng kept staring at Li Guiren. Li Guiren's face blushed and shyly lowered her head. She looked very charming and made people want to protect her.
"Zhen still has government affairs to deal with. My beloved concubine, rest well." After saying this, Wang Changsheng got off the bed and walked out.
"Farewell." Li Guiren was a little disappointed when he heard this. He watched as Wang Changsheng left.
Walking on the road, there were all kinds of tall and magnificent pavilions and palaces. Along the way, when the palace maids and eunuchs saw Wang Changsheng from afar, they all knelt down.
"Your Majesty, do you want to go to Suiyu Pavilion and ask Wu Cairen to perform the Rainbow Feather Dress Dance for you?" The head eunuch seemed to see that Wang Changsheng was in a bad mood, so he carefully suggested.
"How many years have you been with me?" Wang Changsheng glanced at the head eunuch and said indifferently.
"Your Majesty, it has been 21 years." The head eunuch answered honestly, but he felt a little uneasy.
"21 years. What do you think of me as the emperor?"
"Your Majesty is diligent and loves the people. You are wise and powerful. Yao Shun and Yu Tang can't compare to you."
"Diligent and loves the people? Wise and powerful? " Wang Changsheng's lips curled into a mocking smile. He glanced at the head eunuch and said with a cold expression, "Come on then! Take this traitor down and execute him on the spot. "
"Your Majesty, this servant is innocent! Innocent! "The head eunuch hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
Since the emperor had spoken, the guards naturally didn't dare to be negligent. They quickly grabbed the head eunuch and dragged him away.
Seeing this scene, the palace maids and eunuchs around Wang Changsheng were terrified. They were afraid that they would be the next unlucky one.
After a quarter of an hour, the guards came to report that the head eunuch had been executed on the spot.
Seeing this, Wang Changsheng nodded with satisfaction. According to his guess, the eunuch who had been with him for 21 years was most likely an illusion created by the formation core. Now that he had killed him, he estimated that he would be able to leave here in another quarter of an hour.
However, Wang Changsheng had waited bitterly for half a day, and he was still here. Obviously, Wang Changsheng had killed the wrong person. The head eunuch wasn't an illusion created by the formation core.
"Where do I usually rest?" Wang Changsheng asked a young eunuch.
"Your Majesty, you usually rest in Yangxin Palace Hall and take care of government affairs," the young eunuch replied respectfully.
"Good, then let's return to Yangxin Palace Hall. In the future, you will replace the person who just died and lead the way."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Hearing this, the young eunuch's face lit up. He hurriedly knelt down to thank him and then quickly stood up to lead the way.
After a quarter of an hour, the young eunuch led Wang Changsheng into a grand and magnificent palace.
The interior of the palace was elegantly decorated. There were many calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls. At a glance, one could tell that they were made by famous artists.
"Your Majesty, these are today's memorials. Scholar Li and Marquis Dingbei's memorials are at the top." The young eunuch led Wang Changsheng to a table full of memorials and introduced them.
"These memorials all need to be approved today?" Wang Changsheng looked at the memorials that were half the height of a person. His eyebrows twitched as he spoke.
"That's not the case. Your Majesty can approve them whenever you want. However, I suggest that you give priority to Scholar Li and Marquis Dingbei's memorials. Otherwise, they will cause a ruckus outside the palace. Last time, they invited the empress dowager and caused a ruckus for a long time. Thus, you specifically instructed me to place their memorials at the top so that it would be convenient for you to approve them."
Wang Changsheng nodded and sat down behind the table. He picked up the two memorials at the top and began to read them.
After a quick glance, Wang Changsheng wrote the word "approved" on each of the memorials. He handed them over and said, "The approval is complete. Quickly distribute the memorials!"
"Your Majesty, you still haven't used the seal?" the young eunuch reminded.
"Seal? What seal? "Wang Changsheng's face was filled with confusion.
"The imperial jade seal! Without the seal of the imperial jade seal, these two memorials are invalid. "
"You're saying that without the seal of the imperial jade seal, all written orders are invalid?" Wang Changsheng had a thoughtful expression.
"Yes, the imperial jade seal is placed in the wooden box on the table," the young eunuch said as he pointed at an exquisite square wooden box.
Wang Changsheng opened the wooden box and took out a jade seal. There was a five-clawed golden dragon carved on it. Below the seal were the words "Emperor's Treasure."
Wang Changsheng carefully played with the imperial jade seal for a while. He then ordered the young eunuch, "Bring a brazier over. The bigger the fire, the better."
Although he didn't understand what Wang Changsheng wanted to do, the young eunuch didn't dare disobey. He turned and walked out.
Not long after, the young eunuch came back again, followed by two young eunuchs. They carried an iron frame and came in. On top of the iron frame, there was a brazier that was burning red. Inside the brazier, there was a lot of charcoal, burning with crackling sounds.
Once the brazier was brought in, the temperature in the room suddenly increased.
Under the shocked gazes of the three eunuchs, Wang Changsheng threw the imperial jade seal into the brazier.
"Quickly put out the fire, quickly put out the fire. Don't burn the imperial jade seal." The young eunuch didn't care whether Wang Changsheng did it intentionally or not. He quickly ordered his two companions.
Hearing this, the two young eunuchs went to find water to put out the fire.
"Everyone stop. Don't move. If anyone dares to put out the fire, I will kill their entire family," Wang Changsheng loudly shouted. His eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness.
Hearing this, no one dared to move. They could only watch as the imperial jade seal slowly melted under the high temperature.
"Jie Jie, I didn't think you would see through it so quickly. The best part is yet to come!" The brazier let out a laugh. Then the imperial jade seal flew out of the brazier and turned into specks of light before disappearing.
Seeing this, the three young eunuchs were stunned.
Seeing this, Wang Changsheng couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. He had guessed correctly. This time, the eye of the formation was not the people around him. It was the imperial jade seal that represented the identity of the emperor.
So what if they were ministers! Concubines! They were all used to confuse him. Even if he killed all of them, he was still the emperor. Only by destroying the imperial jade seal that represented the identity of the emperor could he break this formation.
The most dangerous place was the safest place. Who would have thought that the imperial jade seal that had always been on the emperor's desk was the eye of the formation?
This test not only tested his desire for power, but also his wisdom.
Wang Changsheng found the tests of the Taiqing Palace to be quite interesting. The first test tested one's reaction time. If one's reaction time was too slow, they would be eliminated. The second test tested one's strength. If one's strength was too weak, they would not be able to pass the second test. The third test tested one's beauty. If one's mind was not firm enough, it would be easy for them to fall into the trap and be unable to extricate themselves. The fourth test tested one's strength and wisdom. The giant ape was nimble, agile, and powerful.
"I wonder what the next test will be?" Wang Changsheng was looking forward to the next test.
After a quarter of an hour, Wang Changsheng only saw a blur in front of him. The eunuchs and the palace all disappeared.
