The dozen or so ministers who became the king's confidants were unwilling to die. No matter how unwilling they were, they did not dare to resent the master who had killed them, let alone speak out.
Ningjun is the territory of the Xinhe Empire. The arrival of the new guardian of the longevity tree in Ningjun of the Xinhe Empire should have been a joyous event for the whole country to celebrate.
However, because of their dark plot with the king, the guardian of the sacred tree broke through their plan and ordered them to die to atone for their sins. If this news spreads, they will be criticized by thousands of people.
Fortunately, Ning County is far away from the capital, and the news cannot be transmitted for a while. They still have time to arrange their affairs before disappearing with dignity, and at least they can keep their name during their lifetime.
Paper can’t stop the fire. Even if the whole country knows about it in the future, all the participants will be dead by then, and the old things will naturally be forgotten.
The courtiers who became King Xin’s confidants had their minds turned over and over again, and they all reluctantly accepted their fate of being manipulated.
The ministers who accepted their fate gathered themselves, exited the study, and quietly went to their respective departments to perform their duties.
Huang’s wife sent away the monarch’s close ministers, collected the bodies of the prince and Princess Shu, and then waited on the monarch to handle government affairs.
Mr. Xin was calm on the surface but burning in his heart. He was greedy for the supreme power and the identity of the king, who could control life and death. He was extremely reluctant to give up his rights and life, and he did not dare to act disobediently because of fear.
Conflicted and entangled in my heart, where can I find my mind to deal with government affairs.
The absent-minded King Xin sat for nearly an hour without even reading half of the memorial. Distraught, he threw the political affairs aside and took the eunuch Huang to the private treasury.
His private treasury has a rich collection, which basically includes cultivation resources, concentrates and spiritual ores for refining weapons, as well as a small amount of spiritual gold ore, spiritual jade, spiritual stones, spiritual plants, elixirs, and There are various kinds of magic weapons.
Some of the items in his private treasury were the results of what he collected in various ways, and some were accumulated by successive monarchs and passed down from generation to generation.
Mr. Xin Guojun looked at the resources in his private treasury, and thought that he had worked hard to accumulate them for many years, originally for his own enjoyment, but now he would no longer be able to enjoy them, and his heart ached like flesh.
The Huang chamberlain followed the monarch with lowered eyes, silently acting as an invisible person.
The two royal Mahayana who protected the monarch did not follow him to the private treasury as before, but the royal Mahayana who stayed in the Ruyi House followed him in.
It was the first time for several members of the royal family to enter the monarch's private treasury. When they saw the dazzling array of cultivation resources, they were so angry that they almost wanted to rush out and strangle the monarch to death.
The monarch’s private treasury is so rich, why do he still want to covet the grain and silver from Ning County?
If the monarch had not been greedy for the small amount of grain and silver from Ning County and privately increased taxes, he would naturally not have caused a catastrophic disaster to the Xin royal family.
Due to the monarch’s selfish thoughts, the guardian of the sacred tree judged him as “a foolish monarch”, which also caused the Xin family to be judged as “a corrupt royal family”, putting the foundation of the empire in jeopardy.
The Mahayana people in Ruyi House were filled with murderous intent, but they still controlled their emotions and did not reveal their whereabouts.
When King Xin was admiring his collection in his private treasury, the queen of the country ushered in death.
In the morning, after the monarch took Huang Naijian to the morning court, Kun Palace also received the news immediately. After the queen accepted the greetings that the concubine must have every morning and evening, she also reported to the queen. In front of you.
When Empress Xin learned that Huang Naijian had returned to the palace, she arranged the palace for the monarch after having a meal.
She entered the monarch’s living palace. Since the monarch was not there, she did not dare to enter the main hall. She went to the main hall of the West Side Hall, preparing to wait for the monarch to come back from court to find Huang Neijian and ask where the prince and Princess Shu were.
She did not wait until the monarch came to court, but first waited for the royal guards to protect the Crown Prince Shu during her western tour. Before she had time to ask the Crown Prince about Princess Shu's situation, the royal family asked her to secretly send the gifted children to the Crown Prince's children and grandchildren. The best and cleverest descendants were summoned to the palace.
After hearing that the Mahayana Emperor of the royal family secretly summoned the prince’s outstanding children and grandchildren into the palace, Queen Xin intuitively understood that something big was going on. In order to allow her children and grandchildren to seize the opportunity or have the opportunity to stand out, she would not offend the monarch. Tired of this, the reason why the monarch summons the prince's children and grandchildren to the palace is to inquire about them in a roundabout way.
She hesitated, as if she was trying to get to the bottom of the casserole. Xin's Mahayana frowned: "Why do women ask so many questions? You don't want to just give up. The monarch's bloodline is not the only one. The children and grandchildren who have your son are gifted."
The Mahayana Lord scolded the monarch, and then said "you don't know good from evil" and walked away.
Not only was she lectured by the royal family, but she was also scolded for being ignorant. Empress Xin did not care about her shame, and immediately called the palace servants serving the monarch in the main palace to question her.
She first asked with concern about the monarch’s daily life, etc., and then the topic changed to the fact that the monarch sent people out of the palace to deliver the decree before and after he went to court today.
The people in the palace answered all questions as usual. To be honest, the king sent several eunuchs who had handed over their palms before he went to court. After the king went to court, those eunuchs left the palace to send messages. As for the They do not know who sent the message.
After listening to the words of the palace servants, and thinking of the previous behavior of the royal family Mahayana asking her to declare the crown prince’s children and grandchildren into the palace, Queen Xin thought about it. Huang Naijian and the royal Mahayana true monarch secretly returned to the palace, Xin The Mahayana family also asked him to announce that the prince's children and grandchildren would enter the palace, and heHe didn't cooperate and was scolded as "ignorant."
When someone scolds someone for being ungrateful, it naturally means that one has good intentions, but the other person does not appreciate it and instead treats the good intentions as a waste.
Therefore, it is naturally a good thing for the Mahayana elders of the royal family to invite the prince's children and grandchildren to the palace.
Reminiscent of the fact that the prince originally patrolled the city on behalf of his father, but one or two Mahayana and Huang eunuchs who were guarding the royal family hurriedly returned to the palace, and speculated that something great must have happened during the western tour. , the eunuch and the royal family quietly returned to the palace to report the news.
Why does the king summon outstanding children and grandchildren?
Visual inspection: Either the prince discovered a small secret realm in which county during his western tour. Huang Naijian and the royal family rushed back to take a group of talented children to experience it;
Or it may be that the high-level true monarchs of the Great Immortal Sect who were passing through the Xinhe Empire stopped in a certain county to wait for suitable disciples. The king gathered talented children to give to those true monarchs of the Immortal Sect for selection.
No matter what the possibility is, it is a good thing for the emperor's grandchildren who are still low in cultivation.
After thinking about it, Queen Xin was extremely anxious. The eunuch who was out must have sent a message to the children and grandchildren of the monarch's other sons to let them enter the palace!
The monarch did not send anyone to summon the prince’s children and grandchildren. He must have thought that the prince and Xin Shu were already present and had taken advantage, thus excluding the prince’s children and grandchildren.
Empress Xin didn’t know what to do, but she actually figured out some ways. She wanted to think about her children and grandchildren, and immediately asked her personal eunuchs to go to the Prince’s Mansion to recruit the most talented children and grandchildren into the palace.
The Xin family was seated in the east side hall, watching the chief eunuch beside the queen leave in a hurry.
The internal eunuchs around Queen Xin were very fast. In less than an hour, they brought the most talented, smartest and cleverest among the prince's children and grandchildren into the palace.
The prince has more than fifty sons. Among the mortals without spiritual roots, the oldest ones have long since passed away. Among the sons with spiritual roots, the oldest is over three hundred years old, and the youngest is over fifty. age.
The oldest of the grandchildren is over 300 years old, the eldest of the great-grandchildren is over 200 years old, and the youngest of the great-great-grandchildren is eight or nine years old.
There are more than 200 children and grandchildren of Prince Xin, of which only more than 30 have spiritual roots, and only eight or nine have good talents.
The internal eunuchs brought the emperor's grandsons with better talents into the palace. There were more than twenty people in total who were talented in cultivation and smart and intelligent people.
The eunuch led the emperor’s grandson to the queen.
Empress Xin was very pleased to see the children and grandchildren of a county. She gave instructions to the younger generations and urged her children and grandchildren to be filial to the monarch when the monarch returns from the court.
She earnestly asked her sonSun Shi, the royal family entered the West Wing Hall again, asked the palace people to exit the hall, and then opened a magic weapon to seal the hall.
The four Mahayana princes hiding in the Ruyi House also appeared together. One Mahayana prince captured Queen Xin before she could react, quickly destroyed the Queen's Dantian, and returned it to her. A blow of divine consciousness.
Queen Xin is also the True Monarch of Nascent Soul, but she is nothing more than a weak chicken in front of the True Monarch of Mahayana. What’s more, the Mahayana family of Xin suddenly attacked, and she was abolished before she even had time to resist. .
Several other Mahayana members of the Xin family also took action at the same time, each controlling several young monks with spiritual roots, and quickly shattered the young monks' Dantian and spiritual consciousness.
The young monks who had lost their cultivation and spiritual consciousness fell to the ground and howled.
After destroying the spiritual fields of the young monks, the Xin family’s Mahayana disciples used their spiritual consciousness to attack the heads of several children without spiritual roots without blinking an eye.
Those smart and clever children were attacked by their spiritual consciousness and became stupid and dull, and their clear eyes became dull and lifeless.
Empress Xin, whose Dantian was crippled, was attacked by her consciousness and her brain was dizzy with pain. She heard the wails and forced herself to sit up. When she saw her children and grandchildren lying on the ground, she was as angry as a head. Lion: "You are killing the prince's children and grandchildren, do you want to force the palace to rebel?"
"The queen is cruel and murderous, and is not worthy of being a queen. The king ordered the queen to be deposed, but the queen was ashamed and committed suicide in the palace." The Mahayana people of the Xin family deposed The children and grandchildren of the missing prince calmly checked to see if any fish had slipped through the net.
"Nonsense!" Queen Xin was so angry that she didn't even care about the pain on her body. She got up and faced the Xin family's Mahayana people: "You dare to kill my children and grandchildren before the prince returns. I will never I won’t let you go!”
“You don’t have to count on the National Rat to save you, your mother clan can’t protect itself.”
“You fart!” Queen Xin was horrified and glared angrily: "My mother's family is a practicing family, and your Xin family is not as powerful as my mother's family. If you Xin family dare to kill a donkey with a mill, my mother's family will definitely crush the Xin family!"
"It is indeed a wolf's ambition. , I am afraid that I have already had the intention of stealing the country." The Mahayana people of the Xin family looked at the queen coldly, and one Mahayana added: "Don't count on your children, they are already dead."
" No—" Queen Xin exclaimed: "Xin Shu is the lucky star of the empire. Anyone who dares to touch the lucky star of the empire is the enemy of the Xin Empire. You are talking nonsense. What on earth do you want to do?"
Facing the Queen When questioned, the Xin family Mahayana looked indifferent: "The new guardian of the Immortal Tree came to Ning County and happened upon Princess Xin Shu who was killing the people of Ning County. The guardian of the sacred tree killed Xin Shu and the prince.
The guardian of the sacred tree also learned that the courtiers had joined forces to oppress Ningjun, and wrote to the monarch with greedy words, offering suggestions to increase taxes on Ningjun.
Guardian of the sacred treeThe emperor ordered the punishment of those who participated in the attack on Ning County. Your mother's family was the most active in sending letters to the king. Therefore, it is difficult to say whether the family can maintain its bloodline.
The pair of sons and daughters you raised acted arrogantly, were murderous and cruel, angering the guardians of the Immortal Tree and bringing shame to the Xin family.
Today, the king has a righteous cause to kill his relatives, to give death to the queen, and to abolish the cultivation of the prince's children and grandchildren. "
"No, no, no, this is not true, this is not true..." Queen Xin's Dantian and consciousness were destroyed, but she still had the courage to fight against the Xin family's Mahayana people. After hearing that her children were dead, She could no longer stand and was on the verge of falling.
She shook, staggered a few steps, and sat down weakly. She felt regretful in her heart. The royal family asked her to secretly summon the prince's children and grandchildren into the palace. It turned out that in order to get rid of her quickly, I misunderstood the meaning and harmed all my children and grandchildren!
A Xin family Mahayana looked at the queen: "Back then, your mother's family and the monarch teamed up to murder the mothers of the previous queens. Clan, when you secretly killed the children and grandchildren of the former queen, you probably didn't expect that you would be here today.
Now you know what you need to know. At least you can die in peace. "
"..." Queen Xin's pained expression changed, and she smiled miserably: "They say there is a cycle of cause and effect, but it's really true! I am cruel, how can you and the monarch fare better? When I poisoned the children and grandchildren of the former queens, the monarch knew it, and so did you, but you didn't stop me.
I am not a good person, and you are not good people either. If I get retribution, you will get retribution sooner or later! "
Queen Xin stood up, wiped the blood that overflowed from the corner of her mouth, looked at the howling children and grandchildren on the ground, lifted up the heavy skirt of her palace dress, turned around and rushed towards a tree in the palace. Dazhu.
Her voice was sad and decisive: "I am waiting on Huangquan Road, waiting for you and the king! "
Several young people howling in pain saw the queen rushing towards the pillar, and their eyes widened in horror: "Mother -"
"Grandma -"
Amidst the screams, Queen Xin rushed forward decisively and hit her head on a pillar. There was a loud bang and blood splashed out.
She was determined to die. Half of his head was smashed, and his body slid down against the pillar, and he fell to the ground and died.
The Mahayana of the Xin family did not stop Queen Xin when she saw that she wanted to hit the pillar to commit suicide, and looked at the bloody woman. Woman, when she thought about the reaction of the monarch and herself when she heard that she was bound to die, she was so ashamed that she felt ashamed.
Empress Xin had a vicious mind and ruthless methods. She was not merciful when she harmed the prince and grandson. She faced the same situation He was decisive and fearless even in death.
The royal family remained silent and turned their attention to the prince’s children and grandchildren.
The princeThere was panic and fear in the eyes of the children and grandchildren, as well as another strong emotion - hate!
The Mahayana people of the Xin family communicated with their spiritual consciousness for a while and reached a consensus - these descendants of the Xin family cannot stay!
A group of people have become disabled, but it does not mean that they have reached the end of their road. The spiritual consciousness can be rebuilt, and the disabled Dantian can also be repaired.
Don’t underestimate a person’s hatred. Hatred can sometimes make a person successful or destroy everything.
There is hatred in the eyes of the prince's children and grandchildren. In order to take revenge, such people are most likely to go to extremes, such as being willing to be puppets, thereby destroying the Xin family's legacy.
He collected the corpse and used magic to remove the blood stains.
After cleaning up the place, except for the Mahayana of Xin family who showed up, the others entered the Ruyi House again.
Taking the royal family from Ruyi House out of the west side hall, he told the queen's eunuch that the queen would be in seclusion for several days without disturbing her, and asked the eunuch to lead the palace people back to the palace.
The inner prisoner was suspicious, thinking that the master and the emperor's grandson were in the monarch's palace, and it was absolutely impossible for anything to happen, so he took the palace servants back to the queen's palace first.
