Chapter 624: Recognize the Thief as Your Father! The Tiger Eats Its Own Cubs!
Ji Changsheng's face was full of complex expressions. He would never have thought that his always dignified queen mother would secretly have an affair with an outsider. The key is that the person's identity is a complete rebel!
For a moment, he really couldn't accept it.
"Sheng'er, the matter has come to this, and so does the Queen Mother." Seeing the look of disbelief on her son's face, even the experienced Empress Xue could not persuade Ji Changsheng as calmly as she faced Patriarch Xue at this moment.
The surrounding atmosphere gradually began to change.
Ji Changsheng's face became more and more ugly. At this moment, he finally understood why Jiang Che suddenly changed his attitude after he came to the door aggressively.
It turned out that the queen mother did not persuade Jiang Che, but convinced him to sleep.
The key is that at that time, he seemed to be still standing guard outside the door.
Moreover, he later specially asked his mother to persuade Jiang Che to support him. Now that he thinks about it, everything seems to be clear. His mother was clearly having an affair with Jiang Che at that time.
It was he who took the initiative to invite his mother to go.
When he thought of this, he felt as if he had eaten maggots.
Of course, Ji Changsheng's discomfort was not entirely because his mother was committed to Jiang Che, but because he hated himself for being such a waste, if he had not been caught by Jiang Che in the first place.
These things simply don't happen.
For him, the queen mother paid too much after all.
Why should he criticize his mother's dedication?
"Sheng'er, this is all the queen's fault, I..." Xue Baichi hesitated to speak, but couldn't say anything.
"Queen mother, please stop talking. I understand everything. I just want to know, how does that thief Jiang Che treat you? Does he just want to take advantage of your identity, queen mother?"
At this point, Ji Changsheng could only accept it even though he was resentful in his heart. After all, the two of them had already had an affair and had in fact betrayed the court and his father. What's more, he also knew that since his father was obsessed with the way of immortality, he and his mother had already been together. They are a formal couple.
The queen mother just made the same mistakes that all women make.
Ji Changsheng comforted himself in his heart.
"He is very good to me, don't worry."
Seeing that Ji Changsheng seemed to have figured out these relationships by herself, Queen Xue breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly talked about Jiang Che's kindness to her. Of course, most of it was made up.
After all, she and Jiang Che didn't actually have any deep feelings so far. To be precise, she felt that Jiang Che didn't have much affection for her.
Maybe he just uses her more and likes the queen status in her.
It's just that these words cannot be said out loud.
"Since Jiang Che treats the queen like this, why didn't he take you away with him?" Ji Changsheng suddenly thought of this key point. Judging from the current situation, once the affair between the queen and Jiang Che is exposed.
The entire Xue family and him would die miserably.
When I think about it now, I am even more scared than the current danger.
"At that time, Ancestor Xue had not returned to Beijing. If I left, too many people would be implicated. Even now, the Queen Mother cannot leave. I am the queen, and Ancestor Xue is here.
As long as this matter is not exposed, Ji Wenhao will not do anything to me. "
"What, Queen Mother, are you not planning to leave the capital?"
Ji Changsheng became more and more shocked. He originally thought that his mother confessed to him that she wanted to leave with him, but he did not expect that the other party was not ready to leave, and he suddenly felt anxious.
"After you left the capital, the queen mother was relieved. I can't leave now." Xue Baichi comforted her for a while before Ji Changsheng had to accept this reality.
Then he asked very awkwardly:
"If the child goes to the south and meets Jiang Che, how will he deal with him?"
The thought of calling a former friend Yafu made him uncomfortable.
He regarded the other party as a friend, but the other party regarded him as his son.
Even just thinking about it makes me feel uncomfortable.
"Now that things have happened, there is nothing to hesitate about. He is now gaining momentum, and even Patriarch Xue has acquiesced in the relationship between his mother and him, just to seek a good relationship in the future.
When you meet him, you only need to call him "Father", and the relationship between you will naturally be settled. Otherwise, you, a prince of an enemy country, will definitely be in a bad situation. "
Xue Baichi warned.
"I understand, kid, when will I leave?"
Ji Changsheng nodded after a moment of silence. The mother's intention was acquiesced.
"Right now, I will send you to the Forbidden Army camp immediately and ask Patriarch Xue to send you away." Xue Baichi also has a resolute character and is not prepared to hesitate for too long.
"Before I leave, I hope my mother will ask my ancestor to leave a restriction in my mind." Ji Changsheng suddenly said again.
At present, the emperor has an extremely terrifying intelligence network. Even ancestor Xue may not be able to send him away safely. Once he is captured, he must protect the relationship between his mother and Jiang Che.
Otherwise, he really couldn't imagine how furious his father would be if he was cheated on.
Xue Baichi took a deep look at Ji Changsheng and nodded heavily:
"good."
Imperial City, Taihe Palace.
Inside the lonely hall, a huge blood pool has been piled up at this moment. You can clearly see the pipes extending from all directions.
What comes in is the condensed essence of blood.
Every drop means a life.
The entire empty Taihe Palace was reflected in a bloody color.
Beside the blood pool, three figures in black armor stood, like puppets, guarding the blood pool of Taihe Palace. Each of them had the power comparable to that of a martial saint.
They were puppets built by the Ji royal family with countless resources. Although they were not very intelligent and had many defects, they were also extremely important to the Ji family.
As for the blood pool, there was a naked figure sitting cross-legged, with a thin body and tiger eyes and a dragon face. It was none other than the Great Zhou Yuankang Emperor Ji Wenhao, and around him.
There were bones whose blood and qi had been extracted.
As for the identities of these bones, they were naturally the royal descendants of his lineage, including his eldest son Ji Changqian, who had now become the sacrifice of the blood and soul of all spirits.
As the great uncle said, with the royal blood priest, the speed at which he condensed the blood and soul of all spirits was rapidly increasing, and he was just soaking in the blood pool.
They all clearly felt that the shackles on their bodies seemed to have disappeared without a trace. If he continued to practice here, his speed would definitely be much faster than that of normal warriors.
Of course, there is another reason, that is, the dragon vein has been lost.
It was not until Jiang Che took away the dragon vein of the dynasty that Ji Wenhao realized that his shackles had been greatly reduced. It can be said that Jiang Che's taking away the dragon vein also indirectly helped him.
However, he was not grateful for it.
In his premonition, in about a month or so, his Wanling blood soul would be almost able to be refined, and then it would be the day for Ji Wenhao to become a saint.
Of course, the premise is that he needs to sacrifice more blood.
But at this moment, he has no scruples, even if he kills all his sons and daughters, he will not hesitate at this moment!
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Ji Wenhao, who had been resting with his eyes closed, felt the trembling of the Emperor's Sword. Suddenly, his eyes moved to the distance, and a trace of suspicion and coldness flashed in his eyes.
"Which Taoist friend is here? Why don't you show up?"
"Hehe, I can't believe that the king of a country, the emperor of the current dynasty, actually used such a magic method. Tsk tsk tsk, your Ji family has really reached the end of the road."
Ripples appeared in the void, and the five-foot-tall old ancestor Ku Rong, holding a cane, condensed his true body, overlooking Ji Wenhao in the blood pool, with a little strangeness in his eyes.
"Who are you? Are you here to assassinate me?" Ji Wenhao's face sank, and his thoughts moved. In the void, a faint sword sound was heard.
The three figures guarding around the blood pool also quickly blocked in front of Ji Wenhao.
Patriarch Ku Rong frowned slightly, and immediately raised his head, sensing that he had been locked by a great force, with a little surprise in his eyes.
Emperor Sword? !
He had naturally heard of this once famous and powerful holy weapon, and had even seen the owner of this sword, the Ji family's great ancestor.
What really made him frown was that he sensed a dangerous aura from the Emperor Sword, as if it was a sword that could forcibly injure him, and he immediately became alert.
As for the three martial saint puppets around him, he ignored them directly.
Not to mention three puppets, even if the three real martial saints were here, he would not be afraid at all.
"Literary masters, please don't be too polite, this is the reinforcements I invited." In the back, Ji Nantian, the ancestor of the Ji family, who had been hanging by Patriarch Ku Rong, finally arrived here and hurriedly explained.
"Reinforcements, could this be him?" Ji Wenhao's eyes flashed with joy, but then he thought of the blood pool he was in at the moment, and his face suddenly looked unhappy.
However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Ji Nantian:
"This is the old ancestor Ku Rong who was once famous all over the world. His strength can be said to be the best in the spiritual domain today."
Then, Ji Nantian told Ji Wenhao about the old ancestor Ku Rong's understanding of the power of rules, and emphasized the power this person possessed. As for the matter of the Confucian Saint, he also told Ji Wenhao about it.
Ji Wenhao's face was first pleasantly surprised, and then changed slightly, but soon recovered again, although the Confucian Saint refused to help because of his blood refining of the blood and soul of all spirits.
Maybe a powerful person who has comprehended the power of rules came, which is also a pleasant surprise.
Because in Ji Nantian's narration, he told him in detail the strength of the old ancestor Ku Rong, who could at least match the Burning Dust Bodhisattva of Buddhism, and was a real powerful person.
With such a strong man here.
Why worry about the instability of the world?
As for the accumulation of one-third of the resources in the treasury, although he was very distressed, the current situation of the court had reached the most dangerous time, and he could no longer care about so much.
As long as he could invite the strongest, he would be willing to give up everything.
"It turned out to be Senior Ku Rong. I have heard of your great name for a long time." Ji Wenhao forced a smile on his face. In order to show his respect, he quickly came out of the blood pool and put on a dragon robe.
"Okay, I have lived for thousands of years. I'd better not flatter you like this. As long as Your Majesty can give me what Fellow Daoist Ji promised, I can help Da Zhou once this time.
But it is limited to once. Your Majesty should be clear about this."
Ancestor Ku Rong chuckled and didn't give the other party much face.
When he was traveling around the world, not to mention Ji Wenhao, even the Great Zhou Taizu had not been born yet. He was completely a junior among juniors.
"Of course, what my uncle promised is what I promised, and I will never violate it." Ji Wenhao didn't care and expressed his attitude generously.
"Just now you said that I might be someone else. Why, did your Ji family invite other old monsters?" Ancestor Ku Rong suddenly asked.
"Don't get me wrong, Daoist friend Ku Rong, before..." Ji Nantian immediately explained.
"Forget it, I don't care about it. Where is the treasure house? I will go to select a batch of treasures first, and then sign a contract with your Ji family." Ancestor Ku Rong said casually.
"I'm sorry to bother you, uncle."
Ji Wenhao looked at Ji Nantian with a smile.
"Daoyou, follow me."
Ji Nantian nodded slightly and quickly left with Ancestor Ku Rong.
After both of them left, Ji Wenhao put away the smile on his face and returned to the blood pool again.
The tension on his face had dissipated this time. With the presence of the old ancestor Ku Rong and the already agreed Xumire Bodhisattva, the court now had two human immortals in charge.
His breakthrough was basically stable.
When he breaks through, the court will have three human immortals. By then, he will have a decisive battle with Jiang Che. Although he will not have the advantage, it will definitely be much better than before.
If Ji Nantian can also break through, the court will be completely stable.
About half an hour later, Li Chengzhong entered the Taihe Palace with a solemn face and reported the departure of the third prince Ji Changsheng from the capital.
Ji Wenhao opened his eyes, and a little coldness flashed in his eyes:
"It seems that Sheng'er has already sensed the danger."
"Your Majesty, do you want to bring the third prince back? If the blood sacrifice is spread out, I'm afraid that time will come." Li Chengzhong asked carefully.
Ji Wenhao glanced at Li Chengzhong from the corner of his eye, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, but then it disappeared again as if nothing had happened:
"The news that I have sacrificed the blood and souls of all spirits is about to spread in the martial arts world. It doesn't matter if Sheng'er spreads it. As for Sheng'er, forget it and let him leave the capital.
But the rest of the royal family of the Ji surname will be imprisoned from now on. No one is allowed to leave the capital without my order. Anyone who dares to leave the capital privately will be arrested immediately."
Ji Wenhao finally had a trace of kindness and decided to let Ji Changsheng live. After all, no one could predict what would happen next. If he lost to Jiang Che, with Ji Changsheng around, his bloodline could continue to be passed on.
Of course, there was another reason, which was that he was concerned about Xue Pingzu, who controlled the imperial army.
He didn't plan to do things too radically.
Li Chengzhong bowed slightly:
"Yes, I obey your command." (End of this chapter)
