Chapter 157
Inside the envelope, there was a letter to Lu Hao, an edict to prove his identity to Lu Hao, and a final edict from the emperor.

Murong Yuan confessed in the letter that Lu Hao should assist the Crown Prince Murong Yao until he takes charge of the throne to prevent the Queen Mother from monopolizing power.

In addition, he told Lu Hao that the jade seal was in the secret compartment under his pillow, and that the edict proving his identity and the edict needed to be stamped with the jade seal to take effect.

Obviously, he knew that Eunuch Yan was from the Empress Dowager, so he didn't take out the jade seal and seal it at that time.

The general content of the imperial edict was to let Lu Hao wield the Emperor's Sword, eliminate the rebellious parties, uphold the orthodoxy of the royal family and support the crown prince's ascension to the throne.

When the emperor takes charge at the age of 16, he will need to assist Murong Yao to regain the power of the empress dowager.

To be honest, there was no need to support Murong Yao. With the support of Dugu Shenyong, Concubine Yi, and the Empress Dowager, he was not needed at all.

However, Murong Yuan finally mentioned that if Lu Hao was asked to track down the murderer who murdered him, he would definitely help him take revenge.

Lu Hao looked at the unconscious Murong Yao, holding the letter in his hand, and the corners of his eyes suddenly became wet, and he couldn't help but shed tears quietly.

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry for you!"

Lu Hao blamed himself for a while.

Although he already had the evidence of Yu Wenji and Yu Qian's crimes, he knew in his heart that even if it was handed over to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother would not arrest Yu Qian.

She has just taken over the power now, how can she hand it over so easily?

Of course, if Yu Qian is captured, not only will the court be in chaos, but Yu Wenji, the Minister of War, will definitely mobilize people to resist, and then there will be chaos.

Do we really want to draw chestnuts from the fire?

Murong Yuan had been treating him well, and at the last moment, he wanted to help him prove his identity.

It is true that when a person is about to die, his heart is also kind.

Lu Hao sat in front of the bed, feeling sad and crying.

Suddenly, a figure appeared next to him, which made him tremble suddenly.

An old man wearing a black robe, with white beard and hair, kind-faced eyes, looked amiable.

"You...you are..."

Lu Hao said in surprise.

"Xiao Liuzi, why are you crying? Are you reluctant to leave the emperor? Or are you worried about the emperor?"

the old man asked.

"The emperor was killed by a traitor. Xiao Liuzi hates himself for being incompetent and failing to catch the murderer behind the scenes and avenge him!"

Lu Hao wiped away his tears and responded in a deep voice.

"How warm and cold the relationship is! You are the first person to shed tears for the Emperor in such a long time!"

The old man was filled with emotion.

"I wonder what the old man is called? How did you get in?"

Lu Hao asked curiously.

Eunuch Yan, who is a ninth-grade master, is on duty outside. How could he let a complete stranger in?

What if this person plots to kill the emperor?However, there shouldn't be any malice in his appearance.

"Alas! Xiao Liuzi, the emperor's poison has penetrated deep into his bones. Even if we catch the murderer behind the scenes, there is no way to save him!"

The old man sighed.

"What? Didn't you say that catching the person who poisoned you can detoxify him?"

Lu Hao was shocked.

"That was in the early days. Now there is no cure for the emperor's poison. Even if he is cured, he will probably still be in a vegetative state!"

The old man explained.

"What? A vegetable?"

Lu Hao was stunned.

"It doesn't matter if the emperor dies. Anyway, the prince has been appointed. When the prince ascends the throne, the Murong family will still rule the Great Yan Empire."

"Originally I wanted to end his life with a slap, but seeing you so sad made me, ancestor, feel compassion and temporarily spare his life!" The old man was filled with emotion.

"Ancestor? Whose ancestor?"

Lu Hao blurted out and asked.

"Of course he is the ancestor of the Murong family, otherwise what do you think?"

Ancestor Murong responded calmly.

"Ancestor, please save the emperor, Xiao Liuzi is kowtowing to you."

Lu Hao quickly knelt down and kowtowed.

"Oh! Get up, it's useless to kowtow. The ancestor is not a god, so there is no way he can be saved!"

Ancestor Murong shook his head and sighed.

"Are you going to watch the emperor die?"

Lu Hao asked sharply.

"Gu poison is equivalent to a kind of witchcraft, or evil magic. Once poisoned, the more suppressed it is, the stronger the rebound will be. If it is not suppressed forcibly, you may be able to live longer."

"It has been suppressed three times now. If it is suppressed forcefully again, once it breaks out, the emperor will definitely die!"

Ancestor Murong explained in detail.

After Lu Hao heard this, he froze on the spot and was completely desperate.

Even if he catches Yu Qian, even if he kills another Gu insect, he may not be able to save Murong Yuan now.

"Xiao Liuzi, your zhenqi is very confused. Someone should have helped you use the Dago initiation method. Seeing that you are loyal to the Murong family, my ancestor will help you straighten out your zhenqi."

Ancestor Murong comforted him.

"No need! Slave..."

Lu Hao was heartbroken and collapsed on the ground.

The ancestor looked at his appearance and shook his head.

He stretched out a finger and gently touched Lu Hao's eyebrows, and a powerful internal force swept over him.

Lu Hao, who was immersed in grief, found that his true energy was flowing faster and his whole body was slowly floating.

"You are not suitable for martial arts training originally. The emperor must have found someone to perform the enlightenment technique on you. However, this method of improving your martial arts in a short period of time will cause damage to your meridians and body."

"Once you practice to a higher level, the sequelae of this kind of injury will become more prominent. Seeing your loyalty, our ancestor will give you a great gift to help you repair these meridians and help you advance your martial arts to a higher level."

Ancestor Murong said while casting spells.

He is now a top master at the grandmaster level, and can be regarded as half a land immortal. In the entire Qianyuan Continent, he can't even hope to find a few people who can compare with him.

Logically speaking, as long as the empire is not in danger of collapse, he will not take action.

However, as the emperor of the empire, Murong Yuan was harmed by an adulterer, and he still couldn't sit still.

In so many days, he was the first person to shed tears for Murong Yuan, so the ancestor felt compassion and gave him a chance.

Lu Hao was floating in the air, with solid internal energy surrounding his whole body, like a huge furnace, burning every one of his meridians.

"Ah ah ah..."

Lu Hao screamed in pain, but there was nothing he could do.

Suddenly, he couldn't bear it anymore and passed out.

When he woke up leisurely, he found that his ancestor had long since disappeared. He felt the changes in his body and was secretly surprised.

Now, his strength has risen to at least two levels, and the meridians modified by his ancestor are obviously wider, and the speed of the flow of true energy has been significantly increased.

A seventh-grade warrior?Belonging to the upper third-grade warrior, this level is considered among the masters in the entire continent.

Moreover, after advancing to the seventh level, you can strengthen your soul power, and your mental power and perception can be greatly improved.

Lu Hao quickly took out the jade seal, stamped two copies of the edict, and then put the jade seal in.

Seeing that Murong Yuan was about to die, Lu Hao was ready to take a risk and go to the Prime Minister's Mansion in person to see if he could find another Gu insect?
