"Did the Divine Dragon Cult leak any information when they contacted the Empress Dowager?”
Hong Lie asked coldly.
It was as if he was questioning Eunuch Hai for hiding such an important matter from the Emperor.
With His Majesty's methods, if he knew that the Divine Dragon Cult had contacted the Empress Dowager, the entire Divine Dragon Cult might be destroyed by His Majesty.
"The Empress Dowager doesn't know about this."
Hai Dafu's reply stunned Hong Lie.
Suddenly, Hong Lie realized that Wu Yue really existed.
However, Wu Yue's existence concealed Wu Cong's real gender.
So, Hai Dafu didn't know that the mysterious noble was the real Emperor?
If I hadn't read the Huangji Sutra and had the habit of bringing in historical figures, I wouldn't have suspected Wu Cong.
They mistakenly thought that Wu Yue was the Eldest Princess and Wu Cong was the Emperor.
Hong Lie heaved a sigh of relief.
She also remembered that the late Emperor had only placed her under the Empress Dowager's name after she was eight years old.
It was obvious that the late emperor had already arranged everything.
In fact, even after the Prince of Zhongshan, he had fallen into the schemes of the late Emperor.
Wu Kuang was fake.
Wu Yue was the real one.
It was the true identity of the mysterious noble.
"I have never come into contact with the Empress Dowager. What do you want me to do?”
"Yang Pills can make one's appearance permanent. In the past, when the imperial family cultivated the Yang Pill Cauldron, they would usually have their intestines cut open. Then, they would use a special method to extract the Yang Pill and refine it into the Youth Preserving Pill.”
Hai Dafu revealed another shocking secret." The supply of Yang Pills has always been provided by the Yin Sunflower Sect. However, since the late emperor, he felt that this method was too cruel. In addition, the late emperor only had one son, the emperor. Therefore, the use of Yang Pills was prohibited in the harem.”
Hong Lie listened quietly.
His heart turned cold.
He only knew that the Yang Cauldron Art was a cultivation technique for human cauldrons.
However, there was never such an evil side to him.
As expected, the cruelest thing in the world was to pursue longevity and not age.
Especially the concubines in the harem. They would definitely go crazy over Rong Yan.
Not to mention the imperial concubines.
If it were any woman with low morals, they would use any means possible to obtain Yang Pills.
"Eunuch Hai, what are you trying to say?”
"The Empress Dowager is getting on in years. The pill that kept her looking is starting to lose its effectiveness. She needs Yang Pills.”
Hai Dafu's words were very decisive.
"Eunuch Hai, even if you find the 42 chapters of the scripture, even if you find the Art of Longevity according to the 42 chapters of the scripture, do you think you can escape His Majesty's pursuit?”
Hong Lie would reply Hai Dafu directly, but he would ask sarcastically.
"I've already lived a rotten life. So, Little Gui Zi, don't test my bottom line.”
Hai Dafu's entire body was emitting a sinister and poisonous True Qi.
The Melting Bone Soft Palm was indeed one of the most vicious palm techniques.
The cultivation of this technique used techniques to guide true qi. When the palm technique was cultivated to a high level, one's strength would naturally increase very quickly.
However, this insidious palm technique was extremely difficult to learn and cultivate, but it was extremely powerful.
Warriors of the same level might not be Eunuch Hai's match.
"But Lil 'Guizi didn't live long enough."
Hong Lie replied coldly.
He looked at Hai Dafu coldly.
He wanted to leave Hai Dafu time and time again.
However, the other party always had bad intentions.
In the past, it was only for the Art of Longevity.
Now, Hai Dafu had gone crazy for the Art of Longevity.
He was faced with two choices.
Firstly, he would continue to help Hai Dafu and repay the favor of saving Hong Lie's life.
Second, kill him to get rid of future troubles.
"Do you really think I can't enter the library?”
Eunuch Hai's hands were trembling as he tried to suppress the raging zhenqi in his body.
"You can try walking in, my Eunuch Hai.”
Hong Lie did not look at Eunuch Hai.
Instead, he looked behind Eunuch Hai.
At some point, a silver-haired eunuch carrying a sword stood behind Eunuch Hai.
Female eunuch?
Hong Lie was stunned.
The other party was wearing a eunuch's uniform.
Hai Dafu was silent.
He sighed faintly.
The moment she turned around, she bent her back even more.
Her wasted figure made people feel pity for her.
He knew that he had taken a wrong step and ended up in this state today because of a mistake in his mind.
However, if he had a choice, he would still choose to take this step.
No one could resist the temptation of longevity.
No one could resist the temptation of breaking through the void and stepping into the Heaven Gate.
The eunuch with the silver sword on his back had already disappeared.
Eunuch Hai also left the library.
Hong Lie shook his head.
He knew that Wu Kuang would take care of everything.
With Wu Cong's character, everything about him didn't go out of control.
This meant that Eunuch Hai was still under her control.
As for whether the Empress Dowager was a fake, did Wu Cong really not know?
During the Crown Prince's time, she had ruled the country for eight years, pacified the barbarians, suppressed the eight kings, eradicated the remnants of the seven countries, and suppressed the emperor of the martial arts world. She was even more terrifying than outsiders imagined.
She, who had already reached the peak, had ascended the throne for three years and suffered from a drought for three years.
It was not necessarily intentional.
She wanted to use the world as a chess piece.
He would stir up the world's power and attract those who were unfavorable to the Wuzhou Dynasty.
Leave the enemy room to grow.
It was not to make the enemy a great enemy.
Instead, it was to let the enemy attract all the unstable factors and then remove them in one fell swoop.
Once and for all.
Hong Lie thought.
Fortunately, my Wu Yue is different.
"I finally got a reply."
Jiang Yuyan exhaled.
Having given birth to the Second Prince, she had been recovering her weak body for the past few days.
After consuming the Wood King Pill, the deficiency in his son's body was also made up for.
His eyes flickered.
The corners of Jiang Yuyan's mouth curled up slightly, and her jade-like face was dyed with a thin layer of peach-red color.
She couldn't sleep at night while she was giving birth.
If it wasn't for her pride, she really didn't want to have children.
It wasn't that she was afraid of strangers.
It was because she was unhappy that she couldn't see the little bastard Hong Lie during the childbirth.
"If only I had you by my side.”
"Even if I have to escape from the palace, I'm willing to accept it.”
Hong Lie had once asked her this question.
She could not answer.
Now that Jiang Yuyan had become a mother, she could answer Hong Lie's question.
However, it was too late.
His Majesty will not allow us to leave the palace.
Jiang Yuyan's expression turned serious.
In the end, he gritted his teeth, got up, and left the bedroom to head to the library.
"Xiao Xian, why is the Ming Palace so lively?”
Halfway through, Jiang Yuyan stopped.
Her personal maid, Xiao Xian, said respectfully,"
"Imperial Concubine, the daughter of Master Huang of Peach Blossom Island has been sent into the palace today.”
Jiang Yuyan stopped in her tracks.
"Consort Xian?"
"Imperial Concubine."
Jiang Yuyan was silent for a moment before revealing a strange smile.
"It seems like His Majesty is going to use force against the Japanese.”
The Peach Blossom Island in the East Sea was located between the Nine Prefectures and Fusang Island.
His Majesty had always wanted to find an opportunity to attack Fusang.
In recent years, the Japanese pirates had wreaked havoc in the coastal area.
He had already incurred the wrath of His Majesty.
The relationship within the Nine Provinces was complicated.
It was not good to make a move for the time being.
However, why would he need to consider too much when conquering a small Fusang Island?
He could just destroy the country.
"Did the Peach Blossom Island Master send his precious daughter here voluntarily?”
"Empress, this subordinate does not know."
"Go and get more information."
The Peach Blossom Island Master was Huang Yaoshi, one of the Five Uniques.
His martial arts were top-notch, and he was one of the few existences in the martial arts world who had broken through the Connate Realm.
Such a person would never obediently send his daughter into the palace.
