My God, I am the emperor, the lord of mankind.

Chapter 130 Good News
Zhu Houcong returned to Xiyuan.

He was in a complicated mood and ordered the imperial army to place all the spiritual plants and monsters brought back this time.

Because of Qiu Luan, Luo An was transferred to the southwest to lead the imperial army and Qin Tianjian to eliminate the demons in the territory.

By the way, he tried to repair the Southwest Dragon Vein for the use of the imperial court.

After Guo Xun returned to the capital for a few days to recuperate, he was sent to Central Asia to search for Genghis Khan's tomb and the fragments of destiny.

Currently in charge of the emperor's bodyguard work is concurrently held by Wang Zuo, the commander of the Jinyi Guards who served beside Zhu Houcong when he was in the palace.

At this time, he knelt down on one knee on the imperial steps in front of Zhu Houcong, like a stone statue, turning a blind eye to the grotesque and terrifying flesh ball in Zhu Houcong's hand, and buried his head deeply on the blue bricks in front of him, sinking in silence. asked in a voice.

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Industry has just sent a letter asking you if you want to visit the foundation laying ceremony of the Longevity Palace in person."

The Ministry of Industry moves quickly enough——

Zhu Houcong thought.

"It is decreed that the material transfer of the Ministry of Industry must be reviewed by the palace before it can be executed. Let Lu Fang and the Chief of Ceremonies keep an eye on it for me. Don't let those big rats steal it on my head."

"According to the order!"

Wang Zuo accepted the order and turned around and left in a hurry as if he had been granted amnesty.

As Zhu Houcong's strength grew, people around him unknowingly felt a kind of fear coming from biological instinct just by serving Zhu Houcong.

The palace door was carefully closed by the imperial guards who stayed behind.

Zhu Houcong took out the piece of human skin paper that recorded the skills from the Falling Sun Divine Art to the Nascent Soul Stage.

The Falling Sun Magic Technique, a top-notch fire-based skill passed down from the sacred monument, is a secret that has not been passed down from generation to generation of the Huang family.

There have been two major epochs in the Green Underworld. The first time appeared in the ancient times. It is said that the monks in the immortal world at that time were really able to ascend to the upper world.

Transformed into an immortal.

It is not comparable to the current idea of ​​​​the ancestor of the gods using the Immortal Cultivation Platform to break away from the shackles of the original world and sneak into the immortal world.

In ancient times, spiritual energy was abundant, and treasures of heaven and earth were said to be everywhere. The immortal cultivators of that era could really practice to the realm of Mahayana, and with the supreme realm, they could make meritorious deeds and speak back to the world.

When your virtues are perfected, the world will automatically send you to the fairyland.

At that time, it was said that real immortals would come to the world to teach the Dharma every once in a while, collect immortal seedlings, bring them back to the immortal world, and spread the Taoism in the lower world.

But later, as the various worlds circulated according to laws, the distance between the Qingming Realm and the Immortal Realm became farther and farther.

The connection with the fairy world also became weaker and weaker, which ultimately directly led to the first great decline of the world of cultivation.

At this time, the spiritual energy of the Green Underworld gradually declined, and Mahayana had already become a legendary realm that could never be touched.

Transformation into gods is the pinnacle of this world. If monks want to ascend, they can only stow away through the Immortal Ascension Platform.

Later, the Qingming Realm became farther and farther away from the True Immortal Realm, and even the Ascending Immortal Platform could not be reached.

Ascension has become a matter that can be called death.

No one can predict where the Immortal Ascension Platform, which in ancient times led directly to the True Immortal Realm, will send monks to today.

The problem of ascension has not yet been resolved, and the world of immortality has ushered in the second great recession.

That is, a demonic disaster.

One day, the monks of Tianji Pavilion suddenly discovered that a disaster called the Demonic Tide began to appear in the small thousand worlds surrounding the Qingming Realm.

The demonic tide spread so quickly that before Qing Ning World could send out help, the surrounding small worlds declared their fall one after another.

At this time, the Green Underworld experienced its first great decline, and its strength was no longer comparable to that of the Great Thousand World. According to the standards of the True Immortal World, it was at best the stronger Middle Thousand World.

On the contrary, the demon disaster spread to the Green Underworld. Many ancestors who transformed into gods could not resist the temptation. In order to explore a higher realm, they chose to accept gifts, transform into great demons, and join the demon disaster. Only then did Mahayana monks - or Mahayana monks - appear again in this world. Demon cultivator, the strength has returned to the ranks of the world.

And this magical skill of falling sun comes from the wordless sky tablet left by the god of gold price between the first great recession and the second recession.

It is said that it leads to the path to Mahayana ascension.

Zhu Houcong carefully read the exercises in front of him.

Among them, the method of forming pills is impressive.

Zhu Houcong directly glanced at those elixir prescriptions that were said to be beneficial to increasing the probability of elixir formation.

Anyway, I can’t do it now.

Is the final result of the Falling Sun Magic Skill a top-grade, first-grade True Yang Pill?

This elixir is accompanied by two magical powers.

One is the Three Yang Mysterious Fire, which has the ability to burn mountains and boil seas, and is the best at defeating weird and evil things.

The second is Xuanyang Breeding Flame, which has the ability to enhance the power of all fire magical powers.

As for the effect of the increase, it is unclear.

Zhu Houcong felt a little strange.

However, considering that this is a temporary manual transcription and not the original, the author said that this magical power is actually very powerful, but the place is too small and it is understandable that it cannot be written...

The higher he reached in his practice, the more Zhu Houcong admired the genius of the monks who mastered the calamity-resolving method.

It was as if he expected that one day the cultivation of immortality would collapse and people would no longer be able to refine elixirs and would have to rely on their own strength to break through the bottleneck.

Pity--

Such a genius is unknown in the Green Underworld.

Zhu Houcong examined the catastrophic power of his previous conquest of the southwest.

After breaking through to the late stage of foundation building, there are still some left, but there is still a long way to go to break through the core formation, the second natural chasm on the road to practice.

We must go out to conquer the sharks as soon as possible——

While Zhu Houcong was thinking, a weak fluctuation of consciousness suddenly came from the flesh ball in front of him.

"Hungry—hungry—hungry—"

With his mind connected, he heard the call of the meat ball.

"I'm so hungry! I'm so hungry! Father! I'm hungry!"

The two were connected by blood, and Zhu Houcong knew where its hunger and thirst came from.

The world of the Ming Dynasty has thin spiritual energy and poor resources.

It simply doesn't get enough nutrients from the air.

Can't grow up either.

On the other hand, if it is given enough nutrients, this child jointly created by Zhu Houcong and the female ancestor of the Wang family can be born directly without going through the ten months of pregnancy in the usual sense, and grow up at an extremely fast speed. aldult.

However, for the sake of safety, Zhu Houcong still thought it would be better to announce its birth through viviparous birth.

Let it adapt to this barren but dangerous world in advance.

The birth of a child is a ritual, an anchor, an oath that this thing is a human being, not something else.

Zhu Houcong cut open the palm of his hand and let the blood flow along the fist little by little on the huge meat ball in front of him, which was sucking greedily.

There is no doubt that as the only orthodox immortal cultivator in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Houcong is the most attractive treasure in the eyes of monsters and ghosts all over the world, far better than all the so-called treasures of heaven and earth.

And Zhu Houcong's blood was undoubtedly a great supplement to the meat ball in front of him.

The meat ball in front of me that was originally only the size of a fist expanded rapidly and soon became as big as a football——

Looking at the embryo in front of him that was licking its own blood hungrily, Zhu Houcong touched its body, sighed and said.

"Shrink down, otherwise your new mother will suffer -"

Just as Zhu Houcong was speaking, several excited shouts suddenly came from outside the door.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

At this time, Wang Zuo and Huang Jin ignored the etiquette and opened the palace door directly, announcing the good news to Zhu Houcong with excited expressions.

"Shu Fei is about to give birth! The midwife has just entered the Jingyang Palace! She said that with her years of experience, there is a high probability that it will be a boy!"

The emperor's first son was about to be born, which should have been a great joy.

Especially since the previous emperor had just had no children, the throne was inherited by a side branch, and the lesson of the annihilation of his mother's clan was still vivid in his mind.

It should have been a matter of universal celebration.

but--

With the light of the candles in the palace, Huang Jin and Wang Zuo saw the emperor through the palace door.

The lights swayed in the breeze.

Mixed with the cold moonlight outside the palace, it cast a dark and uncertain face on the face of the young emperor standing in front of the palace, facing the crowd.

Huang Jin was startled by the oncoming smell of blood in the palace, but Wang Zuo reacted quickly.He grabbed Huang Jin and knelt down in front of the earthly human god in front of him.

Although Wang Zuo moved very quickly, Huang Jin still vaguely seemed to see something flowing down bit by bit from the emperor's palm, hitting the furry, trembling blood-red ball on the ground.

Moreover, before coming, Huang Jin faintly heard voices coming from the palace, as if the emperor was talking to someone.

Is it—

Huang Jin stopped his suspicions.

Wang Zuo on the side still had the same expression of not seeing anything.

Kowtow.

"Your Majesty, there is good news from Jingyang Palace! Concubine Su is about to give birth!"

"God is really helping me -"

Zhu Houcong laughed when he heard this.

He picked up the one and worked hard to shrink his body. It had shrunk to a level slightly larger than the average baby's head.

Su Ziping?——

The daughter of Su Zhen, the chief military officer of Shandong Beiwa Road, is actually the daughter of his eldest brother who was exiled for his crimes.

The root bone is of good quality, enough to be of the first grade.

The most important thing is that this woman is thoughtful and knows what to say and what not to say.

Li Siyi is too naive and there is inevitably the risk of leaking secrets.

Although Yin Huaisu is equally thoughtful, she has a strong literary aura, and it is difficult to say what her true attitude is towards this thing that looks like a "monster" no matter how you look at it.

Will any drastic action be taken?

He looked at the meat ball in front of him that had drunk his own blood and was only one step away from being born.

Zhu Houcong was very excited.

Thousands of years of accumulation in another world!The direct path to Mahayana ascension!Especially - a top combat force who can immediately devote himself to leading the Ming court to fight in all directions and exorcise the demons!

"Summoning——"

Hear the emperor’s joyful words.

Huang Jin and Wang Zuo below lowered their heads even lower.

"Order Huang Jin, the Royal Horse Eunuch, and the imperial physician from the imperial hospital to go to Jingyang Palace and wait for orders. The Jin Yiwei will command Wang Zuo and recruit 200 people from the imperial army to follow him to guard the four sides in case of any eventuality."

Huang Jin felt a heavy meat ball being placed in his hand by the emperor.

The meat ball seemed to be alive, rolling back and forth in Huang Jin's hand.

Huang Jin even heard a cry of dissatisfaction coming from the meat ball.

Did you gain preliminary consciousness so quickly?
Zhu Houcong looked gloomy.

Wang Zuo on the side immediately closed the palace door.

The emperor's instructions after that were private and could not reach the ears of the fourth person.

"Huang Jin, you have been with me the longest. It's time to accept gifts like other former officials of the palace and have the ability to protect yourself-"

After hearing the emperor's words, Huang Jin raised his head and met the unfathomable pair of emperor's eyes, his expression was filled with surprise and surprise.

……

Midnight - Jingyang Palace.

"Why did the forbidden soldiers enter Jingyang Palace——"

With the news that the emperor is about to give birth to his first child since taking the throne.

Jiang Wan, who had just been woken up from bed by the Queen Mother and her adoptive mother, brought people to Jingyang Palace with mixed feelings in her heart.

After hearing the news that His Majesty's first child will be born in this world tonight, and it is very likely that he will be the eldest son who can inherit the throne, Empress Dowager Jiang's expression was not only joyful, but also slightly sad.

So much so that her attitude towards Jiang Wan became a little strange for a while.

"I'm going to have a grandson!"

After confirming the good news from Lu Fang's mouth, she stood up excitedly, but when she saw Jiang Wan in front of her, she realized that she had lost her composure.

She looked at the queen who had been appointed for her prince.

Look at her belly.

On this great day, there was no scolding, just a deep sigh.

Jiang Wan knew what this sigh meant.

Empress Dowager Jiang was a very capable woman, which can be seen from the fact that all the children of King Xingxian were born to her.

Since she wanted Jiang Wan to ascend to the position of queen, she would never give up easily.

"Let's go to Jingyang Palace and have a look——"

The Empress Dowager Jiang said to Jiang Wan with a complicated expression.

As the Queen Mother, when it was still uncertain whether her first child would be a boy or a girl, she could not leave her Cining Palace and easily make her attitude clear to the outside world.

Listening to the hurried footsteps in Jingyang Palace.

Gauze stained with blood, copper basin stained with blood.

Jiang Wan's mood was complicated.

She was originally a daughter of a branch of the Jiang family, and she was no longer five years old than the current emperor.

If the late emperor had not died suddenly, the emperor, the son of the vassal king, would have been carried into the capital by the ministers and became the emperor.

Jiang Wan, who has yet to find a suitable good match, is inevitably criticized by the world.

The noble family of officials looked down upon merchants, and Jiang Wan's parents also looked down upon the nouveau riche who were at the same level as themselves.

The dreamlike word "queen" was not supposed to have any intersection with her life as an ordinary daughter of a wealthy businessman.

Unfortunately, that's what happened.

The emperor ascended the throne and Jiang's mother became the queen mother.

He was quickly thrown into the army of drafts from various places by the fast horse sent by Jiang's mother in the palace.

Then as expected, he passed through the layers of screening and entered the palace.

She only served the emperor once, and was promoted to a concubine by the Empress Dowager Chiang without even needing to be pregnant or making any statement from the emperor.

Her mission is to give birth to a prince or become a queen to ensure that the wealth of the Jiang family will not be wiped out in an instant when the emperor is buried like the Zhang family in the previous dynasty.

It's a pity... Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the emperor's heart is with these three nobles in Jingyang Palace.

At least the emperor wanted people to think so.

Little Emperor, what kind of woman do you like?

Thinking of the three women with different appearances in Jingyang Palace, Jiang Wan was at a loss for a moment, like most of the women in the palace who were sent to the palace by the families behind them.

Just when Jiang Wan was thinking wildly, the maid next to her suddenly screamed softly.

Jiang Wan looked up and saw teams of Xiyuan Imperial Guards taking over the post of the original guards of Jingyang Palace.

Even General Qianhu, the Imperial Horse Guards Fourth Guard who was originally in charge of the Jingyang Palace Guards, had to stand aside respectfully when he saw any of these forbidden soldiers.

without him—

Because the soldiers in front of them are different from the nominal imperial guards, but the real guards of the emperor.

When the emperor fights in all directions, these soldiers must always be by his side and accompany the army in battle.

It is said that everyone has courage that cannot be matched by ten thousand men!

"Eunuch Lu, why are the forbidden soldiers here—"

Jiang Wan asked in a low voice beside her, the eunuch Lu Fang, whom the Empress Dowager Jiang specially summoned from the Chief of Ceremonies to accompany her.

This man took over Gu Dayong, one of the Eight Tigers of Zhengde, and performed well in the process of welcoming him. He was admired by the emperor and gained the emperor's trust. As soon as the emperor overthrew the Queen Mother, he was awarded the position of Chief of Ceremonies and Palm Seal Eunuch.

He is the real ruler of the inner court and the emperor's confidant.

However, when he saw the forbidden soldiers entering Jingyang Palace at this time, his expression became a little strange, his eyes were wandering, and he was obviously absent-minded about accompanying Jiang Wan, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

　Also, don’t rush
