fake prince

禁宫
The heavy rain poured down, like an endless river of heaven pouring down into the world.

In the dimness, the face was completely black, and lightning occasionally fell. Looking up, the gray sky was covered with dense gray clouds, as if connecting countless silk threads.

The sound of drums and the sound of killing gradually approached, making people panic and uneasy.

Hou's guards in the corridor, dressed in unarmored clothes, sat down with their halberds on their halberds, remained silent and brought some comfort.

"His Majesty."

Kneeling on the cold floor tiles, a eunuch is reporting the battle on the front line.

"Things didn't go very well. Master Liu went. Although the altar was set up, His Royal Highness Qi Wang personally beat the drums, and the pile of soil has already piled up to one foot, and he is about to step on the wall."

"Hu Shaojian (Hu Huai'an) resisted desperately. He was hit by two arrows. The gatekeeper suffered a lot of casualties, but he was still able to resist."

The emperor snorted coldly, but he didn't react at all to Hu Huai'an's arrow. He just pondered and asked, "How is the water situation in the canal?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, it has been raining continuously for days, and the water of the three rivers has flooded. It has submerged the Dingshui Monument, crossed the Wu Bridge, and divided the turtles."

Although the names of these three places are different, they have similar functions. They all have water level lines to prevent rainstorms from causing waterlogging.

The emperor frowned and pondered, speechless for a long time.

Since the beginning of the nightmare, he had a feeling of palpitations, and as time passed, this ominous feeling became more intense.

This made him more and more irritable.

It's all this rebellious son!

And the damn monsters!
"Okay, draw all the water from the three rivers, and take the water from my imperial river, and let me flood it hard!"

"Yes!"

Seeing the eunuch delivering the order running out, the emperor felt a little relieved and returned to the imperial desk. However, he was restless and thoughtful. He picked up a book and glanced at it.

"Zhang Dai didn't die, did he retreat before the battle?" The emperor couldn't help but sneered, "I thought he wasn't afraid of death!"

"And the grandson..." The emperor suddenly had a flash of inspiration, as if he had grasped something, but he couldn't find it after thinking about it.

"Zhang Dai is afraid of death, so he is reluctant to deal with his grandson, but..."

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a loud noise. He hurriedly took a few steps to look, and saw the sound of killing and black smoke rising from the direction of Yuque Gate.

"what happened?"

"Why is there a change in the Yuque Gate?"

Just as the emperor said sharply, an eunuch rushed over and shouted: "It's not good, the guards at the Yuque Gate have reported that the grandson has rebelled!"

"What, nonsense, the grandson is checking accounts hundreds of miles away, how could he appear at this time?" The emperor snapped his head and snapped.

"Slaves, how dare you speak nonsense, Li Xiang sent someone to report this urgently!" As he said that, the eunuch who made the report nodded repeatedly, with blood on his forehead.

The emperor was in a trance, as if he couldn't hear clearly, he gritted his teeth and stared at the Yuque gate, suddenly turned his head, quickly flipped through some memorials, and for some reason, the emperor's hands trembled, and he murmured: "Is it so? "

"Ming Xiu plank road, dark Chencang?"

Although many key points are still not clear, it seems that a bright light flashed and connected many things together, and the emperor couldn't help grinning.

"Okay, about the King of Shu, about the King of Qi, about the King of Lu, how many ups and downs... Even I was deceived!"

"I have been playing with eagles all my life, and finally I was blinded by eagles pecking...haha" the emperor grinned grinningly, his eyes glowed gray, and before continuing to speak, he heard a loud bang, shaking the hall.

The emperor raised his head subconsciously, just in time to see the tiles and wooden bricks, which roared and fell.

"emperor!"

The hall shouted in unison, most of them failed to react, and a few did, but they were far away.

Zhao Bingzhong got close and tried to move forward, but his grandson's face flashed before his eyes.

The earthquake continued, the dust filled the air, blocking the view, and the bricks, tiles and wood decorations all fell to the throne.

Involuntarily, his feet slowed down a little.

It was just the slightest difference, a few eunuchs suddenly appeared behind the screen, and with only one swipe, only a few puffs were heard, and all the things that were thrown at the emperor were slid over.

A brick was turned back, and no one stopped it, and it fell heavily on the head of the eunuch who had just reported. Suddenly, he fell on his back, and scarlet blood flowed down his cheeks.

"His Majesty!"

No one cared about this eunuch, he kept shouting and was about to get closer.

"Stop, no one is allowed to move. Anyone who comes near will be killed!" a eunuch screamed. There was a little eunuch who seemed to have lost his head. He was still rushing around headlessly. There was a snap, and the figure flashed. This little eunuch With a muffled sound, he was hit in the chest by a palm, flew out, landed on the ground, and stopped moving.

"I dare not move rashly, even if the emperor is close to me, there are still this group of people!" Seeing this, Zhao Bingzhong bowed his head deeply.

The emperor didn't have such thoughts, and ordered: "Quickly pass the decree, let Meng Lin quickly go to the Yuque Gate to check the truth, and then report to me!"

"Yes, slaves obey!"

Pixiang Palace

Although the sound of killing came from afar, the palace was still relatively safe, with maids and officials standing outside, and even Xinping was beating his mother's legs.

"Do you know what medicine is used to make alchemy and prolong life?"

Concubine Wu closed her eyes and listened quietly without saying a word.

"A monster absorbs inspiration, and its core can be a great medicine... This is a secret, but there are so many alchemists in the world, and they all kill demons and make alchemy, and it will not be a secret for a long time."

"Xinping, since I entered Taoism, I have read extensively and have a little understanding of alchemy."

"And there is a saying that the medicine of longevity must be obtained from the exquisite heart with seven apertures. This is the real top secret."

"Mother and concubine, my daughter was just a little bit... eaten by the father." Xinping's eyelashes trembled like cicada wings, obviously frightened.

Concubine Wu sighed, without opening her eyes, her tone was warning: "Xinping, you grew up in the palace, don't talk nonsense, you have to know the seriousness."

"My daughter is not talking nonsense. When I first visited Lufang, it was to investigate the inspiration to enter the Tao. There were many people who had experienced it along the way. My daughter tried her best to hear the news."

"He gave me this bracelet to cover it up and actually saved my daughter's life." On Xinping's slender and tender wrist, there was a black bracelet with no appearance.

"Now that the King of Qi has launched an army and has broken through the palace wall, why is Mother and Concubine still hesitating?"

"Father is seriously ill, and the alchemy is unsuccessful. In the future, I will know that my daughter has a delicate heart. I wonder if I will let it go?"

Concubine Wu was silent, and Xinping persuaded again: "Father can eat the crown prince, so can't he eat Xinping?"

These words touched Concubine Wu, but she saw that the beloved concubine opened her eyes slightly, and the mother and daughter looked at each other for a long time, but in the end they were speechless.

Xinping felt the unspeakable vicissitudes from the eyes of his mother and concubine.

"Xinping, stop talking."

"You, are too naive."

"What a disappointment to my mother-in-law. What do you think this is, a player's house?"

"You can intervene in this kind of thing?"

Seeing that Concubine Wu's voice was all serious, Xinping didn't speak, and took out a piece of black jade, and the jade fingers moved lightly with a certain rhythm, and the jade body trembled suddenly, sparking a gleam of light.

At the same time, her slim curves also revealed a faint brilliance, like moonlight, like white gauze.

Snapped.

The jade split open immediately, losing its light, and Xinping grunted, taking half a step back in pain.

Although it was only a short moment, Concubine Wu still saw it and couldn't help standing up.

"You have light on you?"

"Mother, I'm telling the truth, but you don't believe me."

"The exquisite heart with seven orifices is the heart that enters the Tao!"

"After I first entered the Tao, there was light coming from my heart, like a baby's afterbirth, and it has not completely faded until now."

"Mother, don't hesitate any longer. Do you still remember about Concubine Wei?"

The low voice was like the wind blowing through the treetops, filled with sadness.

"Being given death just because of no reason, how better are you and me than Concubine Wei?"

"But that's not the reason for your intervention." Concubine Wu still couldn't understand.

Xinping smiled, his bright eyes were moist, as bright as water in autumn.

"That's right, the emperor didn't say anything, the king of Qi was tyrannical, colluded with evildoers, and dared to kill the emperor, but I am a woman, so there is no need to kill me."

"But, concubine mother... I'm already pregnant with his child." She lightly pressed her abdomen with one hand, stroking and smiling slightly.

"what?!"

Concubine Wu was so shocked that she was almost numb. Her own daughter actually did something shameless?
"Xinping...you...you're not what I think, are you?"

"it's him!"

With his chin raised, Xinping bites to death with one bite.

But inexplicably happy in my heart.

This cruel person has not come to see me until now, and wants me to help you.

I buckle a black pot!
Not too much, right?
