Chapter 1262 The First Prince Regents!
Chapter 1262
Wang Chong needs all the information related to the Divine Martial Realm to investigate the situation of the Holy Emperor. In this aspect, the folks are far inferior to the imperial palace. Therefore, Wang Chong invited the fifth prince Li Heng in the imperial palace. Regarding Wang Chong's request, Li Heng has always been serious, so he mobilized almost all the resources in the palace.
Even Li Jingzhong was sent out by him to be at Wang Chong's disposal.
"Understood! I will call you if something happens!"
Wang Chong said calmly.
"Yes, the old slave will leave first. If the lord has anything else to do, just ask. In addition, His Highness told him that if there is any discovery or progress, I hope you can tell him as soon as possible. Your Highness is very filial to his father, and he is very kind to His Majesty." care."
Li Jingzhong said, bowed to Wang Chong, and quickly left the room.
When Li Jingzhong left, he was the only one left in the room. Wang Chong put down the classics in his hand, looked out the window, and couldn't help but sigh deeply.
Today, with the status of Wang Chong and the help of Fifth Prince Li Heng, there are few people in the world who can access the classics. However, I stayed up all night and read countless volumes, but still found nothing. The only information I found about the Divine Martial Realm only mentioned that it is very dangerous to attack the Divine Martial Realm. Once it starts, it cannot be interrupted in the middle. It did not mention that if you fail to attack the Divine Martial Realm, you will definitely go crazy and your martial arts will continue to degenerate.
But when I think about it carefully, in my previous life, all the news I knew about the Divine Martial Realm and the Holy Emperor came from the legends of later generations and the speculations of everyone.
——Looking at the world, there are very few people who can touch the Subtlety Realm and know the existence of the Subtlety Realm. Even the generals who are as strong as the empire hardly know anything about it, let alone the Divine Martial Realm on the Subtlety Realm.
If it wasn't for the sake of the Holy Emperor, I am afraid that many people would never know that there is such a state.
Although Wang Chong was victorious in almost every battle and was hailed as the new generation of war god in the Tang Dynasty, even Qu Dibo died in his hands, and countless generals of the empire would flee in front of him. However, the more he investigated and understood the Divine Martial Realm, the more Wang Chong felt that there was a huge gap between him and the Holy Emperor.
Even if the Holy Emperor failed to attack the Divine Martial Realm and his strength was greatly weakened, his cultivation was still unfathomable. With Wang Chong's current cultivation base, it was still impossible to guess how powerful the Divine Martial Realm was.
But thinking about the situation of the Holy Emperor in the palace that Yang Zhao said, and the chaos in Middle-earth China after the Holy Emperor left, Wang Chong felt that he should do something to stop all this,
Even if there is only a ten thousandth hope.
...
Just as Wang Chong was actively searching for various classics, trying to find information about the Divine Martial Realm, an unexpected thing happened the next morning.
"Following the heavens, the emperor ordered:
As the eldest son of the eldest son, the eldest prince Li Ying is very humble, kind and courteous, and sets an example for all the princes. Therefore, I have decided that the eldest prince Li Ying will act as the agent of the government, and together with the prime minister and the King of Song, he will be in charge of all affairs of the court. This is my admiration! "
In the court hall, the huge dragon chair was empty, and the Holy Emperor was nowhere to be seen. On the contrary, Gao Lishi, the head of the court, Gao Lishi, with a whisk in one hand, and the imperial decree in one hand, strode forward and read aloud to the courtiers. "
...
Boom, as soon as Gao Lishi's voice fell, it was like a heavy bomb falling in the hall, causing a huge shock. The Holy Emperor has been in power for so many years, and it has never happened that he failed to go to the early court and let the eldest prince replace him as regent. And according to the rules of the Tang Dynasty, the regent will only appear when the Zen throne is ready to be handed over to the virtuous, and the future prince is ready to go to court.
But His Majesty is in the prime of life, and his martial arts are world-class. This sudden order made everyone feel uneasy.
"Eunuch Gao, what happened? Where is Your Majesty? Why don't you see Your Majesty?"
"That's right, what's wrong with Your Majesty, why is the eldest prince acting as the government?"
...
In an instant, a group of courtiers rushed forward, shouting loudly.
"Eunuch Gao, what happened to Your Majesty?"
Wang Chong said suddenly.
He has been investigating the failure of the attack on the Divine Martial Realm, but he never expected that the Holy Emperor would directly withdraw from the court so soon, and hide behind the scenes, with the eldest prince handling it on his behalf. This made Wang Chong feel very bad. The situation of the Holy Emperor was even more serious than he expected.
"Buzz!"
The moment Wang Chong opened his mouth, the entire courtroom became silent. Countless courtiers looked in the direction of Wang Chong and Gao Lishi. As the foreign king of the Great Tang, especially after going through a series of events in the recent period, Wang Chong's tough image has been deeply imprinted in everyone's minds.
In the court, Wang Chong already possessed extraordinary weight, becoming one of the leaders in the court like the King of Song.
Gao Lishi frowned, waved the whisk in his hand, and was about to speak when he heard a voice from outside the hall:
"Let me answer this question for you!"
The sudden sound attracted all civil and military officials and everyone's attention. Even Gao Lishi followed the voice and looked over. Just at the tall gate of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, a golden figure, majestic and majestic, wearing a four-clawed dragon robe, crossed the threshold and came up from behind.
Great Prince!
Seeing that familiar figure, Wang Chong's face changed slightly, and a thought flashed through his mind.
The eldest prince, Li Ying, stared at him disdainfully, walking slowly from outside. In the hall, the officials saw this and quickly bowed their heads in salute:
"Your Highness!"
"Your Highness!"
...
Li Ying didn't speak, but held his head high, waved his hands slightly, and motioned the officials to stand up.
"You don't need to be too polite. Father has occasionally felt unwell recently. In addition, everyone knows that father's skill is the best in the world. He must have made a breakthrough recently. Therefore, he decided to retreat and hand over Li Ying as the regent and prime minister. Uncle Emperor, Lord Prime Minister, I will trouble you to help me a lot in the future!"
As Li Ying spoke, his gaze swept across the prime minister and King Song in the hall.
"Your Highness is being polite!"
Prime Minister Li Linfu stroked his beard and smiled, but beside the Panlong Pillar, the King of Song was terrified in his heart and said "Don't dare".
"Everyone, I will give you more pointers in the future!"
Li Ying glanced across the main hall.
"Don't dare!"
"The Eldest Prince is wise and mighty, His Majesty's decision will certainly not be wrong! What needs our advice!"
...
All the ministers quickly lowered their heads.
According to the rules of the past dynasties, once the eldest prince is in charge of the government and starts to be a regency, it means that the eldest prince is likely to be the future prince, the next holy emperor of the Tang Dynasty. At this moment, all the ministers were filled with awe.
With his hands behind his back and his head held high, the eldest prince walked forward, step by step towards the dragon chair above the hall. At this moment, the First Prince was full of high spirits, full of awe-inspiring aura, but just as he passed by Wang Chong, the First Prince paused and stopped suddenly:
"Hehe, King of Foreign Lands, we meet again!"
Hum, this small move immediately attracted everyone's attention. Countless eyes gathered where the two of them were. One is the son of the Holy Emperor, the future heir, and the other is the king of a foreign land who has returned from victory and is unparalleled in the current dynasty. The atmosphere suddenly became subtle
And before that, there had been rumors in private that the First Prince tried to win over Wang Chong, but he seemed to have been rejected.
"The eldest prince is too polite!"
Wang Chong said calmly.
At this time, he was the only one with a calm and calm expression. With his hands behind his back, Wang Chong was fearless even in front of the First Prince.
"What a pity, you really shouldn't have rejected me that day in front of the palace gate!"
Suddenly, a sound as thin as a mosquito came into his ears. Wang Chong's heart was shocked, and he raised his head suddenly, only to see that the first prince was looking at him, with a smile that was not a smile. His lips squirmed, but no sound came out. , but it used the skill of sound transmission and encryption. In the distance, at the same time, King Qi's body moved slightly, as if he heard something, a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Before Wang Chong could speak, the First Prince smiled, and immediately passed Wang Chong, walking towards the top of the hall.
"Brat, in the end, your Wang family still lost!"
At the same time, in the distance, King Qi smiled darkly, and performed the skill of transmitting sound into secrets. A ray of voice also echoed in Wang Chong's mind. Even though he was defeated by Wang Chong and the Wang family several times in a row, and even this time the Holy Emperor arranged for the First Prince to be regent, King Song was included in the list of First Prince Zuozheng, but he was not there, which made King Qi extremely annoyed.
But in the end, Wang Chong and the Wang family still lost. He and the eldest prince have always been close. When the eldest prince ascends the throne, the royal family will definitely fall out of favor. Wang Chong put in so much effort, but in the end he still lost.
"Oh! My lord, don't laugh too early!"
Wang Chong gathered his energy into a bundle, smiled lightly, and replied in the same way.
"you!"
King Qi was furious, but at this time, the eldest prince had already walked up to the hall and sat on the dragon chair of the holy emperor. It's not convenient to talk about it at this time.
Wang Chong smiled casually, and did not continue to argue with King Qi.
The eldest prince cannot sit on the throne of the emperor, Wang Chong is sure of this. The First Prince and King Qi still laughed too early.
"Wang Chong, the current situation is not good. Your Majesty is hidden in the palace. It is very difficult to get close without summoning us. Moreover, the eldest prince is now in charge of the country. Everything has been handed over to the first prince and Li Linfu. Our side also Only King Song has the ability to participate in politics, discuss affairs, and make decisions. Moreover, the eldest prince has never been too close to us. This time, His Majesty let him supervise the country, which also means that he has a probability of more than 50% to become the crown prince. This is not very good for us. Wonderful."
At the end of the court meeting, Zhangchou Jianqiong, Song Wang, Wang Chong, and Wang Gen were all squeezed into a large carriage. Zhangchou Jianqiong lowered his head slightly, frowning.
When Zhangchou Jianqiong was still the Chief Protector of Annan, the Eldest Prince tried to win him over, but was rejected by Zhangchou Jianqiong, and Wang Chong and King Song also had gaps with the Elder Prince, and the relationship between the three of them was not very good. Sample. Now that the eldest prince is in charge of the country, it is by no means good news. In the future when the eldest prince succeeds to the throne, the situation of the three of them will be even worse. One can imagine the worries in Zhangchou Jianqiong's heart.
