Chapter 694 The Day of Succession
"Four seniors... you have such a high level of cultivation, why do you have to obey others?
Why don't you follow us and leave? We can give you countless spirit stones and other opportunities, how about it?"
He didn't want to be imprisoned here, so he came up with this idea.
As long as these four guys can rebel, they will have a chance to leave.
Ning Wang Lu Jin also understood Zhang Ke's plan, and hurried to Zhang Ke, looking at the four Tiger and Leopard Camp elites at the door and said:
"Yes, this king can give you a lot of resources. This is my storage ring. There are a lot of spirit stones in it. I will give them all to you, as long as you let me leave."
Zhang Ke also immediately took off his storage ring and handed it to the four Tiger and Leopard Camp elites with both hands.
At this moment, they didn't want anything, they just wanted to leave here, leave the imperial capital, and escape to a place outside Daqian.
As for everything else, they didn't want to think about it.
However, facing the storage rings handed over by the two of them, the four Tiger and Leopard Camp elites just looked at them coldly, with a trace of disdain and ridicule on their faces.
Looking at the disdainful and mocking eyes of the four elite soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Camp, Lu Jin and Zhang Ke felt their faces burning.
They had never seen such eyes before, nor had they experienced them, but now they experienced it personally.
Facing such eyes, they only felt endless shame and humiliation.
Their face and dignity were trampled underfoot.
But they could not change anything at all.
They could feel the extremely terrifying aura from these four elite soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Camp, and they were definitely strong men in the Soul Condensation Realm.
Facing four strong men in the Soul Condensation Realm, they were completely powerless and could only stay here and be slaughtered.
Of course, if they chose to commit suicide, it would be fine.
But they didn't have the courage, and they didn't want to commit suicide, they wanted to live.
Although it was very humiliating to be imprisoned like this, at least their lives were not in danger.
With such thoughts, Lu Jin and Zhang Ke sat down in the front hall powerlessly.
The two looked at the roof of the front hall with empty eyes, and their hearts were dead.
This situation also happened in Prince Yu's Mansion, Prince Wei's Mansion and Prince Qi's Mansion.
Prince Yu, Prince Wei and Prince Qi were all imprisoned in despair and were specially guarded by the elite of the Tiger and Leopard Camp.
...
Ordinary cultivators had no idea what happened in the mansions of Prince Ning and the four people and Zhao Fangde and others.
The civil officials and generals who were not involved in this matter and other forces in the imperial capital did notice something wrong.
However, they did not dare to investigate it deeply. They summoned all the members of their forces back and did not dare to let them stay outside.
Because the imperial capital now looks calm on the surface, but in fact there are undercurrents, which makes them feel very uneasy.
The intelligence personnel of the Red Sun Holy Church and the spies of the East Factory are spread all over the imperial capital, monitoring all the forces and important personnel in the imperial capital.
All their actions will be summarized and sent to Cao Zhengchun and Tong Tian.
At this moment, Cao Zhengchun, Tong Tian and others have returned to the East Palace.
Originally, they wanted to report today's situation to the lord, but after learning from Shi Ji that the lord was in seclusion, they gave up the idea.
Anyway, these things were arranged by the lord, and they were all done, so there was nothing to worry about.
And the things that happened just now were also known by Lu Zheng and Lu Shaoqing.
At this moment, the two were playing chess in the Yangxin Palace.
After listening to Jing Yi's report, Lu Shaoqing smiled and said: "This stinky boy is straightforward. When he succeeds to the throne, the imperial capital will probably have many heads and rivers of blood."
Hearing Lu Shaoqing's words, Lu Zheng shook his head helplessly: "Daqian has been silent for too long, and all kinds of flies and rats have mixed in. It's just right for Fan'er to succeed to the throne."
Since he has decided to pass the throne to Lu Fan, there will be no changes.
Although Lu Fan has no blood relationship with him, in his eyes, Lu Fan is the same as Ning Wang Yu Wang and others.
Since more than 20 years ago, he has treated Lu Fan as his own son.
That's why he was so determined to make Lu Fan the crown prince and pass the throne to him.
Of course, Lu Fan himself was excellent enough and could not be compared with the four people of Ning Wang and Yu Wang.
Especially this time, the four people of Ning Wang and Yu Wang joined hands with Zhao Fangde and others to rebel and force the palace, which made him extremely disappointed.
So he did not stop Lu Fan's actions.
As for the safety of Ning Wang and Yu Wang and the other four, he was not very worried, because he knew that Lu Fan would definitely take care of it.
...
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
In the early morning of the third day, fourteen consecutive deafening bells rang from the palace and spread throughout the imperial capital.
With the sound of fourteen bells, all the cultivators in the imperial capital were in an uproar and discussed in shock.
Nine bells represent the death of the emperor, and fourteen bells represent the meaning of the emperor, which also means that the old emperor abdicates and the new emperor takes the throne.
Because of this, all the cultivators in the imperial capital were extremely shocked.
"What's going on? Why is Emperor Qian abdicating? Is there something wrong with him?"
"It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is going to take the throne... Hahahaha, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very powerful, and it will be a great joy for us Daqian if he succeeds to the throne."
While all the cultivators in the imperial capital were discussing, the civil and military officials who were not suppressed and controlled all packed up and rushed to the inner city of the imperial palace.
They had known about Emperor Qian's abdication and the succession of the new emperor by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince two days ago.
And today is the succession ceremony, the day when the new emperor ascends the throne.
For a while, carriages entered the outer city of the imperial palace from the imperial capital and headed straight for the inner city.
The carriages stopped outside the gate of the inner city, and all the civil officials and military officers walked to the Qiankun Hall where the court meeting was held.
In the main hall of the East Palace's backyard.
After three days of seclusion, Lu Fan slowly opened his eyes. The moment he opened his eyes, two rays of light flashed in his eyes.
Feeling his current state, Lu Fan nodded with great satisfaction.
Although he was in seclusion for only three short days, he gained a lot in these three days.
His cultivation did not improve much, but his state of mind improved a lot.
The restless and boring negative emotions three days ago disappeared without a trace.
And as his state of mind improved, he clearly felt that his combat power seemed to be stronger.
The improvement of state of mind seemed to have no big changes, but in fact it was not the case.
Whether a cultivator can exert greater combat power depends largely on his state of mind.
If cultivation is compared to a sword, then the state of mind is equivalent to a person.
The power exerted by a child holding a sword and an adult holding a sword is naturally different.
The same principle.
With the same cultivation, the strength of the state of mind is different, and the power exerted is naturally different.
If the state of mind is not strong enough, it is impossible to exert the full power of one's own cultivation.
In fact, most cultivators cannot really exert the full power of their own cultivation...
