Infinity Throne

"You are so old, yet you are making such a fuss."

Yi Lin looked at Jian Nanchun's astonished expression. As he spoke, he put his hand on the other wrist of the Empress Dowager without hesitation.

No wonder the empress dowager had to send the maid away in advance. The majestic empress dowager, the wife of the late emperor, was being swayed by two grown men at this moment. If other people saw this, it would be a serious crime of disobedience that would be punished by the Nine Clan.

Of course, not many people can kill the two leaders of the Golden Core cultivators.

As soon as Yi Lin sent a few rays of true energy into the Queen Mother's body, she knew the reason for Jian Nanchun's shock.

I saw that the meridians in the Empress Dowager's body were withered. She looked like a young body, but there was an aura of decay everywhere, like an old man in his dying years. It turns out that the Empress Dowager's weakness was not an act, but something was wrong with her body.

The two looked at each other and retracted their hands at the same time. Even without communication, they reached a conclusion at the same time based on their own experiences.

This empress dowager could never be a monk.

Jiannanchun is okay,

Yi Lin was even more puzzled.

Above the spiritual sea in the hub, two legendary items were still shaking.

But the trembling amplitude was far less severe than the one in front of Chang'an Palace last night. But Yi Lin was certain that it was the connection between the legendary items left behind by Xiao Xi, and there was absolutely nothing wrong with it.

But isn’t this contradictory?

For a moment, this logical contradiction made it difficult for Yi Lin to deduce a reasonable explanation.

Or is it that this legendary item is special and can only be controlled by a dying person?

According to Xiao Xi's routine, this is not impossible.

the other side.

Xia Xiaoman had already finished reading the letter left by his brother. He opened his mouth wide, squeezed out a few tears from the corners of his eyes, and murmured to himself: "Impossible! How is it possible!"

Junior sister is very emotional right now, and if you ask her, she probably won't be able to figure out the reason.

So Yi Lin took matters into her own hands, snatched the letter from Xia Xiaoman's hand, and read it for herself.

The entire letter seemed literate and infuriated, making it difficult for Yi Lin to imagine that this was an autographed letter from a Daqian emperor.

There is a lot of nonsense in the article, some of which are greetings for Xia Xiaoman's health. After removing the nonsense, the general content of the letter is as follows:

To put it simply, Emperor Ji Sheng has been depressed and under great pressure since he ascended the throne. He believes that he cannot manage the Daqian Dynasty well. As the conflicts left by the previous generation became increasingly fierce, bandits were raging, demons were rampant, and troubles continued. All these troubles made Emperor Ji Sheng depressed.

Yes, although Emperor Ji Sheng did not say that he was depressed in his letter, Yi Lin felt that he should be depressed.

Otherwise, it would never be possible for a powerful leader to write in a letter such depressing words as "I have done nothing in my life."

too weak.

Why did Emperor Xia Yuan pass the throne to the youngest and most useless Xia Jisheng?

Moreover, what made Xia Jisheng most mentally and physically exhausted was that after he came to the throne, he did not obey his father's secret order and deal with his brothers. His brothers had long been dissatisfied with Xia Jisheng, and several princes planned several assassinations. Although Xia Jisheng escaped in the end, the fratricide in the royal family made Xia Jisheng frustrated and aggravated. of his depression.

Later, the late emperor left an orphan, three sons and three daughters. Except for Xia Jisheng and Xia Xiaoman, the other two princes went to the vassal king respectively and planned to seize the throne with the help of the vassal king's troops.

As for the second princess, she married the lord of Lumenguan City and lived a happy life; the third princess gave birth to a son and was lured by her bloodline. She said that she was the orthodox of the Xia family and imitated the other two princes to join the weakest King Pingxi. Bo Bo wants his son to win the throne.

Looking at it from the beginning, Yi Lin finally understood the whole story of the civil strife in the Daqian Dynasty.

All in all: your circle is really chaotic.

If Xia Jisheng had been more ruthless when he came to the throne, so many bad things wouldn't have happened.

At the end of the letter, there was an unexpected turn for Yi Lin.

Xia Jisheng knew that he was useless, but he could not just watch the prosperous dynasty passed down by the late emperor collapse in his hands, so he made a bold decision.

In the name of "asking for help", he took the initiative to deliver himself into the hands of Zhennan King Xia Xingchen, so that Xia Xingchen could legitimately raise troops, quell the rebellion, and re-enter Qingdu. Although Xia Jisheng had no famous quotes, Yi Lin could read Xia Jisheng's thoughts between the lines.

Xia Jisheng actually wanted to take the initiative to give up the throne and let his imperial uncle, the extremely ambitious King Zhennan, ascend to the throne of Daqian in a legitimate and legitimate manner!

As early as four years ago, Xia Jisheng was no longer in Qingdu. All the internal affairs of the dynasty were actually controlled by the empress dowager in front of her.

Xia Jisheng was originally a puppet emperor. He was dispensable. Whether he could leave or not would have no impact on the operation of the entire dynasty. So far, except for relevant figures within the court, the people outside had no idea what was going on in the deep palace. , there is no such person as "Emperor Daqian" at all.

"I see!"

Yi Lin returned the letter to the distraught junior sister and looked at the calm empress dowager: "Whose side are you on?"

The Empress Dowager sighed softly: "Daqian Dynasty cannot be without a king. The letter left by Ji'er has been sent to Zhenping by the Ai family. Chaos is coming. All these are human affairs. I hope the two immortals will not interfere. deep."

After saying that, the Empress Dowager let out a violent dry cough.

The maid outside heard that the Empress Dowager was feeling unwell and walked in in a panic. She quickly protected the Empress Dowager who was coughing violently and sent her back to Chang'an Palace.

Yi Lin squinted as she watched the empress dowager's back disappear from sight, until after a long time, the tremors from the legendary items finally subsided.

After the Empress Dowager left,

Yi Lin started to have a headache and secretly regretted getting involved in these royal affairs.

The life span of a monk can easily reach hundreds of years, which is really unnecessary.

Yi Lin looked down at Xia Xiaoman, who was emotionally unstable, and sighed softly.

"Junior Brother Lin, what do you think?"

Jian Nanchun asked.

Yi Lin chuckled and set up a barrier: "Brother Jian, do you know what the highest level of lying is?"

"You?" Jian Nanchun glanced at his junior brother expressionlessly.

"...Ahem," Yi Lin ignored the question and continued: "That is, if taken apart in a paragraph, each sentence is true, but when put together, it is false."

When Jian Nanchun heard this, he secretly thought it made sense. He began to try to take apart, combine and analyze what Concubine Shu said in his mind.

"But the Queen Mother's words are in the second realm," Yi Lin turned around and said, "What she said should be true, but she should be hiding something."

Yi Lin was referring to the legendary items.

He didn't believe that the Empress Dowager was really a weakling. If that was the case, when he was detecting the breath just now, he had already started to grab the legend, so why stay still for so long.

Yi Lin always felt that this "temptress" was not that simple.

Hearing this, Jian Nanchun rolled his eyes. Translating Junior Brother Lin's words seems to be: I am the highest state of lying.

Yi Lin asked Jian Nanchun to comfort her junior sister first.

Since the Empress Dowager took the initiative, Yi Lin responded by saying, it's no big deal.

At present, Yi Lin still could not guess the purpose of the Empress Dowager. After thinking for a while, he decided to first find the clue about Emperor Qing Xia Yuan and follow the clue about Zen Master Ku Ye.

The long-lost mystery sparked Yi Lin's fire again. He suddenly felt like he was back in the mysterious and changeable trial world of the past, competing with others in battles of wits and courage.

…

At night.

Tianxuan Academy.

All the students and teachers had gone to rest, and Yi Lin secretly came to Tianxuan Academy.

"History books...history books...history books..."

While there was no one around, Yi Lin arrogantly snapped his fingers and placed a "Lighting Technique" in the library. He placed all the 375 ancient books related to "history" that he had worked so hard to find. In the corridor between the bookshelves, I opened them one by one.

"call……"

Yi Lin took a deep breath and said in one breath: "Start work!"

After saying this, Yi Lin's wrist lit up with the light of freedom, and she patted her chest, feeling out of body.

moment,

The speed of time passing in front of her eyes suddenly slowed down. Like a ruthless computer, Yi Lin quickly scanned the contents recorded in 375 ancient books into her eyes.
