Ye Jianqiu

"How is my family?"

"It's safe and sound, the surveillance people have withdrawn."

"How did you do it?"

Naruki frowned the feathers on his forehead.

How did you do it?It can't be said that Lu Yanyu charged the family members of other criminals in the same prison with an unnecessary crime of robbery, and then heroically wiped out the other party, and finally made meritorious service and was rewarded, right?

"You can rest assured."

The other party didn't want to talk about it, so Ye Jianqiu wisely didn't ask.Since Ming Qi was able to rescue him from prison, he would naturally be able to settle it.

Ming Qi raised his head, eyes shining like golden stones: "Ye Jianqiu, is this cave okay?"

Ye Jianqiu said unhappily: "Perfect!...just not popular."

Ming Qi smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, no matter how beautiful a place is, it's useless if there are no people."

So you know it all!Ye Jianqiu secretly rolled his eyes.

"Ye Jianqiu, have you ever seen a strange sunset?"

"I've seen it, it's breathtakingly beautiful and picturesque."

"Do you know why that is?"

"I don't know."

"That's what my royal family surnamed Zhao did."

Ye Jianqiu opened his mouth wide in surprise.

Ming Qi nodded affirmatively, and slowly said: "After the prince surnamed Zhao awakens his abilities, the phoenix feathers will take on many colors. Fire red, pure white, indigo, sapphire blue, and even seven-color phoenix tails. They fly in the sky with their wings waving to their heart's content , under the personal teaching of the father, they trained the prince's abilities. During the day, they flapped their wings and flew towards the sun, absorbing the heat of the fire and turning it into a stronger force. At night, they rushed to the bright and cold moon to soothe the wounds on their bodies Pain, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon... Every time they fly over, the sky will show bright scratches..."

——The sky has not left traces of wings, but I have flown.

"Great, beautiful!"

Ye Jianqiu admired it sincerely.

"Unfortunately, they are almost dead..."

"why?!"

Ye Jianqiu stood up vigorously: "But, but now there are still beautiful clouds in the sky?"

Looking at the sky in the evening, the sky is still covered by red clouds, as if the sky is about to be burned red by flames.

Ming Qi's golden eyes dimmed: "Now there are only three royals surnamed Zhao who can fly in the sky."

One is the imperial sister Zhao Zhen. After obtaining the precious drop of blood of the earth, she became the first royal princess in Qingluan's history with supernatural powers.She incarnates as a red crane, whose attribute is fire. Its color is crimson, and its shape is like a crane. The area it flies over will show a brilliant red glow that covers the sky and covers the sun.

And Zhao Chun is a fire phoenix, the essence of fire, and his whole body is full of pride.The golden light shines where it flies, and the gorgeous clouds inlaid with golden borders dye the sky red.

The last one is Zhao Hao.

He has all kinds of colors, and the sound of eight winds, his image is the closest to his father.If Zhao Hao flies, the sky will show colorful rays of light, like the most gorgeous brocade silk, and among the princes, the most gorgeous one when flying.

There are only the three of them who used to look down upon the world with supernatural powers of the royal family Zhao, and two of them have lost their vitality. Now only the imperial sister Zhao Zhen is nourished by the pure blood of the earth, and can live in the sky without any worries. Show off your phoenix glow without worry.

Ming Qi was actually very tired.

If he hadn't had the opportunity to obtain those two precious drops of blood of the earth, he could still save his life and turn into a half-phoenix body, otherwise, the descendants of the male royal family with supernatural powers would really be on the verge of extinction.

After all, Yingtou Mountain, the source of spiritual energy, has been destroyed.

The country cannot be lost, and the Zhao family cannot perish...

——The royal family with the surname Zhao bears the supreme glory, and at the same time bears the darkness brought by the glory.

Thinking of this, he secretly sighed, and the story began again.

The Black Sparrow back then was actually Suzaku, one of the legendary Four Spirits of Heaven and Earth.

Suzaku knew very well that his awakened bloodline was very noble, but this noble bloodline didn't have any fairy spirit at all!Moreover, this country was brought down by the joint efforts of the four back then. If he was the only one, it would have been very difficult.

Now he can't even open the burrow of the mother of the earth, let alone immortal cultivation and ascension!Except for a peculiar appearance and abilities, he will slowly die like a normal person.

It turned out that he was right afterwards, and Suzaku would not live to be 40 years old.

——Those who took advantage of it paid a heavy price.

During his lifetime, Suzaku built a royal ancestral temple above the entrance of the mysterious cave that had been completely sealed off on Yingtou Mountain.

The vicinity of the original cave entrance was already covered with towering trees. The closer to the cave entrance, the more vigorous the plants were. The biggest tree could only be embraced by 20 people.

Since this land was opened, no matter how tightly sealed it is, there is still a trace of aura leaking out.

There were even secret reports that nearby animals and villagers occasionally became alienated.Suzaku ordered that all alienated people, whether human or beast, be killed!

Since then, Suzaku will bring his royal descendants to worship every year.

Behind the superficial form of worship is actually the bloody prince elimination system.

According to Tai-zu Suzaku's will, the royal family can only have one outstanding person with supernatural powers.

When the throne is stable and passed on within the royal family, theoretically all male descendants of the same ancestor have the right to inherit, and the order of succession will be based on seniority and age, and they will be awarded titles respectively. Generally speaking, it is the eldest son inheritance system.But here in Qingluan Country, something changed.

This very confidential and obscure selection of princes was carried out by the late emperor's personal secret guards.They put the princes into the ancestral temple for several months, each living in a separate room, and patiently waited for the alienated prince to appear.

The number of alienated princes is very rare, maybe only one in a few years.Therefore, during the 20 years of the first emperor's reign, except for the princesses who could not be selected, among dozens of princes, big and small, only seven people with supernatural powers were selected.

Due to the special identities of these seven princes, they all followed the late emperor to teach them personally.

When the time is right, until the position of the Eastern Palace is finally determined, the other eliminated supernatural beings will be given the special secret medicine Xixin San by the late emperor himself, and will be quietly sent to the royal tomb for a deep burial.

The other princes who originally belonged to the grace of the Creator turned out to be the biggest threat to the throne.Therefore, when they faced the ruthlessness of the real emperor, they had no choice but to die.

— This is really a tragedy.

The cruel succession tradition of the royal family surnamed Zhao has been passed down from generation to generation, until Zhao Chun's generation.

After Zhao Chun lived with a dozen other princes for a few months, none of them grew feathers, which disappointed his father.

In fact, the five-year-old Zhao Chun is a supernatural person, but he has a precocious mind. When the fine red feathers grow on his body, he is very disgusted and disturbed. He carefully observes his own situation every day. When, quietly dialed.The fine feathers on the back are not easy to remove, so the skin and flesh are deliberately injured so that they cannot grow.

Therefore, Zhao Chun returned to the concubine's side safely and soundly.

Zhao Chun lived an ordinary life in the palace, watching with cold eyes the batches of princes happily leaving and coming. Of course, the princes who came back were princes with the same physique as ordinary people, and those who left would almost never come back. coming.

In the end, there were two princes with supernatural powers, one Zhao Yuan and one Zhao Hao.

This is the first time several generations of emperors have left behind two powerful princes.

The older Zhao Yuan was listed as the East Palace.

Although Zhao Hao was not listed in the East Palace, he was kept by his father's side and loved him very much.

The specific reasons are very specific.

The other princes will only alienate after absorbing the aura of Yingtou Mountain, and the number is very small.

Only Zhao Hao was covered in soft feathers when he landed. Except for his face and limbs, which were the same as those of a normal baby, his body was like a wet chick that just broke its shell.

According to legend, when Zhao Hao was about to be born, purple air came from the east, and a strange fragrance lingered inside and outside the palace, which lasted for a long time.After receiving the report, the first emperor immediately moved to the delivery room, ready to personally welcome the arrival of the emperor's heir.

After hearing that a phoenix chick was born, the emperor's father was overjoyed. In order to protect Zhao Hao, he killed all those who knew, including his biological mother and concubine.

——It is really unlucky to kill people at birth, so God destined Zhao Hao to be the protagonist in the tragedy.

Although the prince has supernatural powers, he can't change easily, because every time he transforms, it will cause damage to his body.Therefore, their safety still mainly depends on the Royal Secret Guards or the Royal Guards of the Imperial City.The first emperor had to carefully protect Zhao Hao, who was born with auspiciousness for the first time since the founding of the country.

If it wasn't for the formal system of selecting princes, the late emperor would have drafted an edict immediately to list him as the master of the Eastern Palace.

——In fact, fate is a prankster who always plays cards against common sense.

Once, Zhao Hao followed the first emperor to hunt in Yingtou Mountain.

Zhao Hao, who was sitting in his father's arms on horseback, was playing and playing with his father's beard. Suddenly, a group of killers attacked the two of them. Amidst the startled horse neighing, Zhao Hao struggled and jumped down without hesitation. One jumped at the killer to save the emperor's father.

Those killers were actually alienated villagers.They were gathered together and prepared to be executed in secret. Unexpectedly, a few powerful beast-shaped people among them broke out of the cage and decided to kill the emperor as a last-ditch effort.

The situation was critical, the first emperor turned into a white phoenix, rescued Zhao Hao, and killed those alienated one by one.

The first emperor was furious, and he ordered to intensify the strict inspection of the surrounding villages, and to execute the whole family if there was a slight alienation.These alienated people are not only a threat to the royal family, but will also destabilize the foundation of the royal family, and must not be tolerated.

No one thought that due to the attack, Zhao Hao was seriously injured.

Zhao Hao was only four years old at the time.

The first emperor was hit hard. Originally, according to the law of ancestors, such a crippled prince with supernatural powers was to be executed, but the emperor was moved with compassion and thought that this child was loyal and filial. Even if he grew up, he would not treat Zhao Yuan is threatened.

For this reason, for the first time in the selection of the East Palace, two people were retained.

In fact, Zhao Hao is the best among the princes.

His abilities are very powerful, and there is no opponent who is so strong, but it is a pity that he has a fatal flaw, which is an injury that is so painful that it cannot be described.

Although all the imperial physicians and insiders who treated him at the beginning were killed, as he grew older, Zhao Hao gradually understood what happened to him.

It turned out that the father left him only because he was pitiful!

He growled like a beast inside!But the angrier he was in his heart, the calmer he appeared on the surface, and the less he spoke.

Zhao Hao often beat the maids and eunuchs around him to death for no reason. Whether he was walking on the street or in the palace, whenever he saw someone making eye contact or being accompanied by a man and a woman, he would kill them on the spot, and even dug out their internal organs and threw them by the river Or three days of violent corpses on the street, the corpses are not allowed to be collected!

He loves and hates the eunuchs around him even more. When he loves, he can't wait to lift those eunuchs to the sky, and when he hates them, he can't wait to smash their bones to ashes. The collision of ice and fire is vividly displayed on him.

The most egregious time, Zhao Hao killed his father's favorite concubine after drinking, and the reason was because that concubine's eyes were too charming, she looked like a seductress to anyone!

These things were all tolerated by the first emperor—his poor Zhao Hao!

The more he pitied Zhao Hao, the more angry Zhao Hao became.

When Prince Zhao Yuan got married, Zhao Hao got drunk and flew to the top of Yingtou Mountain alone.

Yingtou Mountain is the place of his engraved hatred!

He wanted to fly to the sun, even if he was burned to ashes, he didn't want to stay in this Qingluan country that made him have no love for life.

He exerted his supernatural ability, screaming and rushing towards the sun. He flew higher and higher, getting hotter and hotter. Like a big fireball, two suns appeared in the sky at the same time!The snow tops of the Eagle Head Mountains melted rapidly, and the lives of the people nearby were devastated.

In the end, Zhao Hao, whose phoenix feathers were all burned, fell from the sky and landed hard on the dry Yingtou Mountain...

When the late emperor learned about this, he looked at Zhao Hao, who was covered in scars and knocked his head dripping with blood, looking desperate to die, so he could only sigh, "That's all..."

This child, after all, is what he is because of him—how pitiful!

Father didn't know, the more pity he looked at Zhao Hao, the more hatred Zhao Hao's heart felt, and he wanted to tear out father's loving eyes!

Later, Zhao Hao, after being baptized by the sun, became more powerful. After becoming stronger, he became even stronger. As long as he was in a bad mood, he would go to the top of Yingtou Mountain to lay down thunder and fire, set off a violent wind and sandstorm, and finally Yingtou Mountain was no longer alive.

The lifeless Yingtou Mountain can be regarded as cutting off all the thoughts of the royal family.

The one who hates Zhao Hao the most is Prince Zhao Yuan. Only he knows what Yingtou Mountain means to him!With Yingtou Mountain destroyed, it is impossible for his future successor to have supernatural powers to appear again!

Originally, the former emperor wanted to train Zhao Hao to be his right-hand man, but Zhao Yuan was a little afraid, such a person was a cold-blooded killer, and his relatives would not recognize him!But Zhao Yuan was afraid of the former emperor. The older the emperor became, the more confused he was, and he doted on Zhao Hao without a bottom line. If the old man didn't die for a day, he couldn't compete with Zhao Hao.

Unexpectedly, the cruel Zhao Hao likes to play with the cold-faced Zhao Chun who talks less.

Zhao Chun is the prince of a concubine who has fallen out of favor, and it is common for people in the palace to praise the red and despise the white, so the three of them, mother and son, live in the cold palace with no one to curry favor with.

In the future, Zhao Chun will only have the title of a prince at most. He will be supported by the royal family all his life. His descendants will gradually lose their titles and family property. The royal family who is not as good as the next generation is more uncomfortable than death!

The royal family - is the most noble and least valuable status, it is not as good as a child of a family with real power!

Zhao Chun slowly waited for the opportunity, and Zhao Hao was willing to get close to him, so he would go along with it.

On the day when Zhao Chun was named King of Qi, Zhao Hao came to celebrate, and he finally had a showdown. He had already discovered that Zhao Chun had leftover feathers on the wound when he was injured.

Now that the words were broken, the two of them didn't hide and planned big things together.

When the first emperor was dying, Zhao Hao and Zhao Chun started to join forces. Together they killed the prince Zhao Yuan who had turned into a blue phoenix bird, and then killed the old emperor who turned into a white phoenix bird on the bed. , and finally the two began a formal duel.

Zhao Hao is a phoenix with colorful feathers, with jet-black chest, snow-white neck, red beak, golden claws, and fire-breathing mouth; while Zhao Chun is a fire phoenix that shines like gold, with elegant air when flying. The phoenix feather sprayed out thousands of meteor-shaped golden-red fireworks, and the dazzling sparks flew wildly in the air like snowflakes, illuminating the night sky, almost illuminating the entire Linyue City!

I saw the phoenix singing like a flute and a sheng, the sound like a bell and a drum, the phoenix feathers shining like a brocade, showing off the imperial color, and fighting fiercely!

The two screamed in the air, but Zhao Chun lost to Zhao Hao. Zhao Hao not only had an innate advantage, but also had been trained by his father for many years.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhao Chun ran away immediately.Zhao Hao chased after him, breathing fire in the air to catch him, and they both came to Yingtou Mountain.

The scene from more than 100 years ago reappeared.

Zhao Chun was completely devoid of the phoenix feathers burned by Zhao Hao, and was unable to resist, lying on the ground curled up in a ball with his claws facing the sky.

Unfortunately, when he was about to catch Zhao Chun, Zhao Hao was exhausted and fell to the ground and turned into a human form.

No one expected that the dead prince Zhao Yuan secretly manipulated him, and the poison hidden in his body finally began to explode at this critical moment.

Zhao Hao is actually a smart person. He knows that his violent temper is the devil of his heart, so in order to cultivate his character, he practices calligraphy every day to meditate.It's a pity that someone added a colorless, odorless poison that corrodes the lungs to the ink. Although the dose of the drug was extremely small, day after day, year after year, people slowly damaged his body unconsciously.

History always has a dramatic scene.
