The Empress Dowager leaves seclusion.
"One year later, we will fight! How domineering, how heroic. This Ye Fei isn't simple at all. "
In the Imperial Palace of the Kingdom of Zhao, the Emperor sat on the Dragon Throne, reading the information sent back from the Taixuan Holy Land. His face flashed with a touch of passion and nostalgia.
Once upon a time, he was also this high-spirited and full of heroic spirit. However, this passion, this heroic spirit, along with the passage of time, along with the old empress dowager's stubbornness, along with the dictates of the court, all of the Emperor's heroic spirit was buried in memory and also buried in the passage of time.
"It's all that old witch's fault. If it wasn't for her, Zhao Qianjun wouldn't have turned into an evil spirit, Zhao Ji wouldn't have practiced evil arts, and most importantly, Concubine Zeng wouldn't have died because of this."
"Everyone says that the Emperor is the supreme ruler of the world. He is second only to one person and above tens of thousands of people. But in the world of martial artists, I, as the Emperor, am too vexed, too wronged. Why? Imperial Uncle Zhao, back in the day, you were a peerless genius who could dominate an army of a thousand. Why did you only imprison her and not kill her?"
"Consort Ceng, do you know how much we want to personally avenge you? But we can't. We're just a good-for-nothing. Even if we secretly cultivate day and night, we're still unable to summon the Phoenix bloodline bestowed by our ancestors!"
The Emperor sat paralyzed on the Dragon Throne, drinking jar after jar of fine wine. The wine flowed down the Dragon Throne, flowing all over the floor and onto the steps.
An old eunuch quietly knelt there. He was deaf and mute, so he couldn't hear what the emperor was saying. However, he understood why the emperor was sad and why the emperor was crying.
The old eunuch didn't say anything. He unfolded his sleeves and knelt on the steps. He also knelt in the wine and kowtowed. The deaf-mute eunuch kowtowed very hard. It seemed that this was the only way he could persuade the Emperor to be careful with his words and actions. Seeing this, the Emperor laughed loudly.
"Little Chun, how many years have you been following me?" The Emperor smiled and asked the kneeling old eunuch. In fact, the old eunuch was not old. He was about the same age as the Emperor, but the years of suppressed fear in the palace had crushed him, making him look like an old man. His behavior was timid.
Raising his head, the old eunuch stretched out three fingers with great difficulty and gestured with his mouth. Then, he stretched out his palms and shook them.
"Thirty years! That's right, it's been thirty years. Back then, you weren't like this. You were the number one expert in the Imperial City, I was the most promising prince of the Imperial Family, and Consort Zeng was your most beloved woman. " The Emperor drank his wine and didn't seem to realize how much of a psychological impact his words had on the old eunuch.
The old eunuch lowered his head in fear and did not speak. He could not speak either. He could only understand the Emperor's meaning through the Emperor's lips.
Not caring about the old eunuch's fear or whether he could still hear, the Emperor hugged the wine jar and suddenly said with hatred, "I know you like Consort Ceng. I can also see that Consort Ceng likes you the most, but the heavens play tricks on people! Who told me to be a prince? I absolutely cannot lose her. Even if she doesn't love me, I will use my entire life to love her! "
"But the Empress Dowager, that vicious old witch, she ruined everything. We clearly agreed that Zhen would be her puppet and she would let Zhen and Consort Ceng live happily together, but she lied to Zhen and you! She killed Zhen's most beloved woman. She turned Zhen's best brother into what he is now! "
"Lu Chun, tell Zhen, do you still hate her? Are you still willing to join Zhen to take revenge on her? Don't think that Zhen is really a puppet and I don't know what's going on around me. Zhen knows that you are not really deaf and your martial arts are still there!"
Boom!
The Emperor's words deeply shocked the old eunuch. He raised his head and looked at the Emperor in shock. He looked at his former good friend, who was now the Emperor's minister. The Emperor also looked at him, and an inexplicable light flashed in his eyes.
"Why?" The old eunuch no longer looked humble, and his eyes revealed a questioning look.
"Because Zhen's daughter has grown up. In the Holy Land, with her bloodline, she will receive the best protection from the Holy Land. Now, Zhen has nothing to worry about. Eighteen years ago, Zhen endured humiliation and submitted to the Empress Dowager, that old witch. Eighteen years later, Zhen has nothing to worry about. Naturally, Zhen will complete the feat that Zhao Qianjun did not dare to complete!"
The Emperor coldly hugged the wine jar and stood up from the Dragon Throne. A shocking aura was released from Zhen's body, causing the Dragon Throne to creak as it could not bear the weight.
The old eunuch looked at the Emperor's rising aura in shock. It rose from Martial Ancestor Realm Level 1 all the way to Martial Ancestor Realm Level 10. The Emperor's hidden cultivation was actually so terrifying. Even the old eunuch, who had served the Emperor for 30 years, did not know about this, let alone the Empress Dowager.
"Have you really made up your mind?" The old eunuch suddenly trembled.
"Yes!" The Emperor did not hide anything from his former good friend, who was now his only trusted minister. He stood straight and was filled with sharpness.
"Bang!"
The old eunuch suddenly knelt down and kowtowed to the Emperor again. His eyes were filled with regret and fear as he silently retreated to the side. When he reached the bottom of the stairs, he silently knelt down and faced the door. His body began to tremble.
The Emperor suddenly had a bad feeling. He took a few steps forward in shock, and the wine jar on his body shattered on the ground.
"Lu Chun, you betrayed me! I trusted you for 30 years, and you betrayed me for 30 years! "The Emperor saw four old eunuchs walking in through the door of the palace.
After Eunuch Zhang died, they took over Eunuch Zhang and became the Empress Dowager's new eyes and ears. Before they appeared, the Emperor did not even know that there were such people in the Imperial Palace.
It was as if they appeared out of thin air and became Half Step to Martial Honorables. The four old eunuchs did not speak. They held horsetail whisks in their hands and stood respectfully on both sides.
Then, a trembling palace maid walked in step by step, supporting a noble woman who was wearing a phoenix robe and riding on a colorful cloud.
"Emperor, you have disappointed me!" The noble lady looked at the Emperor coldly, as if she was the one who ruled the world.
"Empress … Empress Dowager? Impossible, you old witch. Back then, Zhao Qianjun used a sword array to trap you in the Vermilion Bird Palace. Unless the power of the ancestor's sword is exhausted, otherwise … "
Suddenly, the Emperor thought of something terrifying.
The Empress Dowager also laughed coldly. "Emperor, you've finally thought of it. Qian Jun, that child, trapped me with the power left behind by Zhao Shenjian to suppress your Imperial Family's Dragon Vein. However, no matter how strong the Dragon Vein is, it will eventually dry up. Similarly, no matter how strong the Zhao Family's ancestor was, he will eventually fall in these thousand years."
"No, that's impossible. The strength of the ancestor of the Zhao family is comparable to the Holy Lord. How could he fall so easily?" The Emperor could not believe it.
But the fact that the Empress Dowager had come out was an ironclad fact. The Emperor suddenly felt a great sense of fear. Back in the Vermilion Gate, the Empress Dowager had already suppressed the State of Zhao to the point of suffocation. Now that her real body had come out, just how big of a change would the State of Zhao undergo?
"Empress Dowager, who are you? What do you want after hiding in the Zhao family for so many years?" The Emperor suddenly calmed down and asked in a deep voice.
