Cao Xiaobao's name appeared on the prodigy roll.
In the Land of the Nine Prefectures, both the Emperor and the commoners were enthusiastically discussing Cao Xiaobao's identity.
He could guess.
In the end, no one found any clues.
Cao Xiaobao's identity was revealed-he was the foster son of Cao Zhengchun, the supervisor of the East Chamber in the Ming Empire.
He was greedy, lustful, mediocre, and had no experience in the martial arts world!
He saw the information revealed on the Prodigy Roll.
Everyone in the Nine Provinces finally understood.
It turned out that Cao Xiaobao had never appeared in the game. No wonder no one knew anything about him.
Moreover, his character and aptitude were extremely poor.
He wondered how such a person managed to climb up the rankings.
"Zhang Han, how much do you know about Cao Zhengchun?”
In the Great Qin Imperial Palace.
Qin Shihuang asked slowly.
Zhang Han had the Shadow Secret Guards under him, who were in charge of gathering information from the various countries.
"Your Majesty, Cao Zhengchun is the supervisor of Great Ming's East Chamber.
At the same time, it was also the strongest force among the six forces under Zhu Houzhao.
He had countless strange people in Jianghu under him, and had many secret contacts with the Ming army.
According to the intelligence, Cao Zhengchun was submissive to Zhu Houzhao on the surface, but he had a different heart in the dark.”
Qin Shi Huang nodded.
"What do you think of Emperor Zhu Houzhao?"”
Zhang Han: " Zhu Houzhao is a grandiose and incompetent person. He is the most incompetent ruler in the history of the Ming Dynasty.”
Qin Shihuang was surprised.
As Great Qin and Great Ming did not share a border, he did not have a deep understanding of Zhu Houzhao.
Now that he heard Zhang Han's report, his heart was filled with curiosity.
He knew that Zhang Han had a calm personality and wasn't someone who would shoot arrows without reason. Since he said that Zhu Houzhao was the first fatuous ruler in the history of Great Ming, there must be a basis for it.
Perhaps, he could see something from Cao Xiaobao…
"Zhen wants to see how muddle-headed this Zhu Houzhao is.”
Qin Shihuang wasn't the only one curious.
The other emperors had the same feeling as him.
Even though the Great Ming Empire was one of the Eight Great Empires, Zhu Houzhao had kept a low profile these few years after he had ascended the throne.
And.
Inside the Great Bright Imperial City, there seemed to be an extremely powerful force secretly guarding it. It was very difficult for the various empires 'spies to plant in.
As a result, they did not know much about Zhu Houzhao. They only knew from some scattered information that Zhu Houzhao was not wise and could even be called muddle-headed.
"Hehe, Zhu Houzhao, zhen wants to see how muddle-headed you are and how you compare to zhen.”
Zhao Gou was very clear about his position.
He knew that he was an incompetent ruler.
However…
After being scolded for a long time, there was suddenly another incompetent ruler who was being scolded together with him. This feeling was still very good.
Cao Xiaobao's reason for being on the rankings was that he had a low-grade Heaven Realm cultivation technique, the Connate Qi Technique!
This cultivation technique cultivates the innate Qi in one's body. It is powerful and profound.
He had a rough understanding of the high-grade Earth-tier sword technique, the Long-distance Sword Control Technique!
This sword technique can be used to control the sword in the air. When cultivated to the highest realm, it can even behead people from a hundred miles away, comparable to a heaven-grade sword technique.
He had a rough understanding of the high-grade Earth-grade movement technique, Thousand Illusion Lotus Body.
When one's body technique was cultivated to the proficient realm, it could be extremely fast and transform into countless clones, making it impossible for others to distinguish between true and false.
He had a high-grade Earth-grade divine weapon, the Autumn Water Cold Flame Sword.
[This Divine Weapon can cut through iron like mud. It has an extremely strong cold air. When facing an enemy, it can be activated to freeze the enemy to death. If it's light, it can affect the enemy's movement and greatly reduce their strength…]
He looked at the explanation of Cao Xiaobao's reason for being on the prodigy roll.
Everyone in the Land of the Nine Prefectures was shocked.
They were previously curious about how Cao Xiaobao, with his mediocre talent, could get on the Prodigy Roll.
Now, he finally understood.
It turned out that the reason why this fellow could be on the rankings was all because of various top-grade cultivation techniques and the external force of divine weapons.
He couldn't help but feel disdain in his heart.
Even the emperors who wanted to recruit him shook their heads.
What was the point of recruiting such a greedy, lustful, and mediocre person?
"Sigh, Cao Xiaobao can be on the rankings because he has a good godfather.
If it were anyone else, who would give so many top-grade cultivation techniques to a person with mediocre talent?”
"Cao Zhengchun is one of the most treacherous officials of the Ming Dynasty. For him to be able to give so many top-grade cultivation techniques to an adopted son with mediocre aptitude, it can be seen that he has done many bad things behind Zhu Houzhao's back all these years.”
"Brother, I agree with what you said. I heard that the Great Ming Emperor Zhu Houzhao isn't even twenty years old yet. How could he be a match for an old fox like Cao Zhengchun?”
"Even if Zhu Houzhao is no match for Cao Zhengchun, he shouldn't be so foolish as to let Cao Zhengchun cheat him of so many top grade cultivation techniques and divine weapons.
I'm really curious, what method did Cao Zhengchun use to cheat Zhu Houzhao of these top-notch cultivation techniques?”
"I'm also very curious. No matter what, Zhu Houzhao is still the emperor of the empire.
Even a fool knew that they shouldn't give away their precious treasures so easily. Didn't Zhu Houzhao know?
Cao Zhengchun must have used a very despicable and brilliant method to cheat Zhu Houzhao of these top-grade cultivation techniques and divine weapons!”
The people and martial artists of the Nine Provinces discussed animatedly.
Although everyone did not know much about Zhu Houzhao, they knew that he was a youth who had not even reached the age of twenty.
Over the years, he heard that he had done some foolish things.
However, everyone was not too harsh on him.
There was even some pity.
After all, how could a young man who wasn't even twenty years old be a match for old foxes like Cao Zhengchun and Zhu Bujue?
"Presumably, the reason why he became a fatuous ruler was because he was helpless…"
Many people had such thoughts.
The emperors also thought of this.
It produced an extremely strong resonance.
Especially Qin Shihuang, Li Shimin, Liu Che and the other emperors.
Before they ascended to the throne, as well as when they had just ascended to the throne, they had also suffered a lot and done many things that they had no choice but to do. It was even more common for them to be misunderstood.
The Sons of Heaven Rankings had collected enough information.
The answers began below!
How did Cao Zhengchun get so many top-grade cultivation techniques and divine weapons from Zhu Houzhao?
Was Zhu Houzhao forced to give Cao Zhengchun the treasure of the empire?
Looking at the prodigy roll, it began to answer the questions in their hearts.
All the emperors and commoners were paying full attention to the updated content of the rankings.
They wanted to know if their guess was correct.
Since the answers to the two questions were deeply related, they were answered together.
The reason was simple.
Three years ago, Cao Zhengchun had adopted Cao Xiaobao as his foster son. When he entered the palace, he brought Cao Xiaobao with him, hoping to get to know Zhu Houzhao better.
Although Cao Xiaobao was mediocre, greedy, and lecherous, he was good at flattering others.
After meeting Zhu Houzhao, he praised him.
Zhu Houzhao was flattered, and under his great joy, he took the initiative to bestow a Heaven Rank low-grade cultivation technique.
One Earth-tier high-grade sword technique and one movement technique.
An Earth-Grade High-Rank weapon.
Looking at the answer given on the prodigy roll.
Everyone in Nine Regions was stunned.
Just this?
Just this?
Why was the answer so different from what they had imagined?
In their imagination, Cao Zhengchun must have used extremely sinister methods and spent a lot of effort to obtain these top-grade cultivation techniques from Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao must have been unwilling to accept this, enduring the humiliation and struggling for thousands of times before giving out the top grade cultivation technique.
But what was the result?
Cao Zhengchun did not use any tricks or schemes.
He just wanted to bring Cao Xiaobao to get familiar with him.
After being flattered a few times, Zhu Houzhao generously took the initiative to bestow treasures.
Cao Zhengchun was said to be sinister and cunning.
What happened to Zhu Houzhao being forced into a corner?
Why was the outcome completely different from what everyone had imagined!
"Hahaha! So Zhu Houzhao is a fatuous ruler who is even fatuous than me!!!”
In the Great Song Imperial City.
Zhao Gou laughed maniacally when he saw the answer.
He even laughed until tears came out of his eyes.
After being flattered a few times, he gave away several top-grade cultivation techniques that were considered the foundation of a country. If this kind of emperor was not a fatuous ruler, then what was he?
In fact…
He was countless times more muddle-headed than Zhao Gou!
