BXBX NOVEL Chapter 105: The Ming Emperor.
“A red-clothed eunuch?”
The white robed man’s expression turned extremely ugly.
In the Imperial Palace of the Tang Empire, the eunuchs who can wear the red eunuch uniforms were basically Grade 1 Great Grandmasters.
Of course, there were exceptions.
For example, Eunuch Hong by Empress Li’s side. He is only at Grade 2, but he was still given a red eunuch uniform.
But such examples are relatively rare.
At this time, the white robed man could feel the six auras that enveloped the entire mansion were Grade 1 Great Grandmasters.
“I didn’t expect it to be a Town Ambassador of the Bright Gown Guard…”
The red-clothed eunuch recognized the white robed man’s identity at first glance.
Although the Bright Gown Guard scared the nations, the nations were not without resistance. Especially the Tang Empire, they clearly knew things, such as the high-level leaders of the Bright Gown Guard.
“Emperor Tang indeed has his ways…”
The white robed man laughed, his expression suddenly calmed down.
“Hmph! Want to commit s_icide?”
The red-clothed eunuch disdainfully smiled. He appeared beside the white robed man, lightly tapping him.
[Weng~]
The white robed man felt that his vision began to blur, and his heart, that was about to be shattered from his s_icide attempt, started to heal slowly.
“You?!”
The white robed man then fell unconscious.
…
East Palace.
In the Right Spring Square.
Su Qin was sitting cross-legged and his True Essence was circulating in accordance with the [Nine Yin Daoist Scripture].
Soon, Su Qin slowly opened his eyes.
Then suddenly, with Su Qin as the center and with several dozen meters in a radius, the temperature dropped rapidly.
“Hmm?”
Su Qin frowned.
At this time, the temperature that was originally dropping, returned to normal.
“This [Nine Yin Daoist Scripture] is interesting.”
Su Qin thought silently in his heart.
Compared with the [Nine Yang Divine Art], the [Nine Yin Daoist Scripture] was even more bizarre, and it was at the opposite extreme of the [Nine Yang Divine Art].
“But, isn’t this what I wanted?”
A smile appeared on Su Qin’s face.
“Within two days, I would be able to Cultivate [Nine Yin Daoist Scripture] to Great Accomplishment. Then I can start gathering Yin Power.”
Su Qin estimated in his mind.
If you are a common Martial Artist who wants to Cultivate the [Nine Yin Daoist Scripture] to Great Accomplishment, then you will not be able to do it without several decades and hundreds of years of constant practice. And this is based on the fact that your aptitude fits the [Nine Yin Daoist Scripture].
But Su Qin is different.
As an Arhat in the 3rd Heavenly Layer and the System, it was not a problem. Su Qin even felt that two days was long.
The next day.
Su Qin came to Cheng’en Hall.
“Third Brother, you are here.”
Crown Prince Li Sheng walked over with joy.
“After Yun’er drank the prescription made by Third Brother, her body improved. Even the Imperial Doctor was surprised…”
Crown Prince Li Sheng looked towards Su Qin with gratitude.
“Really?”
Su Qin didn’t mind it much.
The one he helped was his younger sister, Su Yueyun. Moreover, it took him basically no effort.
“That’s right…”
“Do you remember yesterday’s assassination attempt?”
Crown Prince Li Sheng suddenly thought of something, and then took a look around to see if there’s people.
“What’s wrong?”
Su Qin asked.
“In the morning, I went to see the Emperor, and I felt that the Emperor seemed to be in a good mood. It should be related to the assassination yesterday…”
Crown Prince Li Sheng said his thoughts.
Although Emperor Tang didn’t tell him explicitly at the time, he was nonetheless told some hints.
“So that’s how it is.”
Su Qin slightly nodded. It seems that the six Grade 1 Great Grandmasters who left the Imperial Palace yesterday, had caught the big fish.
Otherwise, based on Emperor Tang’s temperament, if there wasn’t any big gain, he wouldn’t act so happily.
Next, Su Qin chatted with Crown Prince Li Sheng for a while.
Actually, it was mainly Crown Prince Li Sheng talking, while Su Qin just listened.
Also, most of the things Crown Prince Li Sheng talked about, were about the Court. For example, which Minister came forward and wanted to impeach him…
Obviously, despite Emperor Tang’s insistence, his Crown Prince position was not very stable and even received many questions.
“What do you want to do if you become an Emperor in the future?”
Su Qin listened and asked casually.
Li Sheng carries nearly one-tenth of Tang Empire’s National Destiny. As long as he does not die, the throne will basically belong to Li Sheng.
But Su Qin also wants to know what Li Sheng has planned for the future.
“Third Brother, you must not say anything like this in the future, Father is getting better now…” Crown Prince Li Sheng said quickly.
When Su Qin heard this, he shook his head.
Su Qin couldn’t be clearer about the situation of Emperor Tang’s body. If it hadn’t been for a Peak Grade 1 Great Grandmaster willing to exchange his life, Emperor Tang would have died already.
But even so, Emperor Tang will not live for long. Even an Arhat or Legend has a limit to their lifespan.
So regarding Crown Prince Li Sheng’s “Father is getting better”, it was nothing more than temporary.
In half an hour, Su Qin returned to the East Palace.
“It’s almost there.”
“With the [Nine Yin Daoist Scripture] reaching Great Accomplishment and a burst of energy, I can transform my Body for the fourth time.”
Su Qin sat cross-legged, slowly closed his eyes, and started Cultivating.
…
…
At the same time.
Southern Ming Empire Capital.
Within the Imperial Palace.
The Ming Emperor was sitting high on the Dragon Throne and was looking at the papers in his hand.
“The assassination attempt failed?”
The Ming Emperor whispered to himself without any fluctuations in his voice, as if he was saying something that had nothing to do with him.
“Reporting back to Your Majesty.”
“In addition to the mission failure, the Bright Gown Guard that was placed in Chang’an City and the Town Ambassador were captured…”
The Bright Gown Guard commander had cold sweat on his forehead.
“Oh?”
“Not only did the assassination attempt fail.”
“Even the people were captured alive?”
The Ming Emperor put down the papers in his hand and looked at the commander.
“I seek Your Majesty’s forgiveness.”
“This one is deserving ten thousand deaths.”
The Bright Gown Guard Commander knelt on the ground and said with a trembling voice.
In the Southern Ming Empire, the three words ‘Bright Gown Guard’ were almost a taboo. Many fear it. Even the princes and Ministers in the Court were no exception.
But this commander knows that the so-called Bright Gown Guard is just a dog under the Ming Emperor.
If the dog is useful, then the Ming Emperor will naturally not be stingy with rewards.
But if the dog is useless, then he will change to another dog.
Perhaps the Bright Gown Guard will still continue to exist as an organization, but no one knows whether the position of commander would still be filled by him.
“This one will go to Chang’an City personally and prepare for another assassination attempt.”
The Bright Gown Guard commander touched his forehead and said quickly.
“No need.” After a long time, Ming Emperor’s voice sounded slowly: “Since the first assassination attempt failed, there is no need to try again.”
The Ming Emperor paused for a while and continued: “I remember, some time ago, a prince of the Tang Empire wanted to contact and cooperate with me?”
