Chapter 591 Orange and Xu Tianran
Mingdu, Sun Moon Empire Palace, back garden.
The wheelchair slowly moved on the wide bluestone road in the back garden. Plants of various shapes and forms were neatly scattered throughout the garden. Every design was unique. The small waterfall in the rockery, the royal pattern with clusters of flowers, and the tall trees. The entire Sun Moon Empire Royal Back Garden felt like entering a beautiful forest.
"How is your Majesty?"
Now the Crown Prince Xu Tianran of the Sun Moon Empire is sitting in a wheelchair, with his eyes closed, a thin blanket covering his legs, and a faint sense of leisure.
The one pushing him is a stunning girl with long black hair, about seventeen or eighteen years old, a pair of smart big eyes with a calm temperament, and long eyelashes drooping slightly, covering the sharpness in her eyes, making her look somewhat harmless.
The most eye-catching thing is her skin, which is so tender that you can't see any pores, and you can squeeze out water with a pinch.
She wore a goose yellow dress, which set off her tender white skin, noble and elegant.
"Your Majesty's body may not be able to hold on any longer. The imperial physician said that your Majesty has been in a coma and lost consciousness in recent days." Ju Zi said softly.
Xu Tianran still closed his eyes, as if the old man in his twilight years mentioned by Ju Zi had nothing to do with him at all.
"Father worked diligently all his life without seeking merit, but only seeking no mistakes. How many great opportunities have he missed! In the future history, he can only be a mediocre emperor. Now that the Soul Master Competition is about to be held, what will Jing Hongchen do in the academy?"
Ju Zi said: "Some time ago, the head of Jing Hongchen went to the Soul Pagoda and cooperated with the Soul Pagoda. Now, many first-tier cities in our Sun Moon Empire have built statues of gods, and many soul masters can enter the Dream God Realm. In addition, the souls of the Soul Pagoda are also open to us, but most of them are open to students in the academy."
"Do you know what price he paid?" Xu Tianran asked.
Ju Zi shook her head slightly, "I don't know. In addition, I heard that Jing Hongchen's granddaughter Meng Hongchen has always been obsessed with the master of the Spiritual Pagoda, Huo Yuhao, and wants to marry him."
When mentioning Huo Yuhao, Ju Zi's eyes flashed with brilliance.
She had a happy childhood. She was born in a small town on the border of the Xing Luo Empire. Her father was the best chef in the town, her mother was the most beautiful woman in the town, and the family lived a peaceful and happy life.
However, when she was nine years old, the White Tiger Duke Dai Hao started a war on the border for military merit. Her father was forcibly conscripted to the front line and eventually died in battle.
When she was twelve years old, her mother also became seriously ill due to excessive grief and eventually left her.
After her parents died, her family was looted by soldiers and bandits of the Xing Luo Empire. She lost her last home and could only wander outside.
At that time, she swore that she would make Dai Hao pay for his blood debt with blood, and the Xing Luo Empire, and the hatred would not be eliminated until the country was destroyed.
Later, she met Xu Tianran, who was not yet disabled at that time, so he took her in and trained her to study at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, becoming one of Xuan Ziwen's four proud disciples.
When Xu Tianran was attacked during the palace coup, she was stabbed twice in the back to protect Xu Tianran, and almost died. Only then did she initially gain Xu Tianran's trust.
According to her original plan, she would rely on Xu Tianran to climb to the top of the power of the Sun Moon Empire step by step, and then use the powerful army of the Sun Moon Empire to completely kill the White Tiger Duke Dai Hao and destroy the Xingluo Empire.
However, she didn't expect that when her plan just started, someone killed her enemy, and it was the kind of extermination of the family.
Although she was a little regretful that she couldn't kill her enemy, the death of her enemy still made her extremely happy and relaxed. She still remembered that she cried and laughed all night when she confirmed that the White Tiger Dai family was exterminated and Dai Hao was killed.
At that time, the name Huo Yuhao was completely imprinted in her heart. She was very curious about what kind of person the other party was.
Xu Tianran smiled when he heard Juzi's words. This smile was so cold that when Juzi saw this smile, her heart felt as cold as falling into an ice cellar. Because she knew very well that whenever Xu Tianran showed such an expression, it was when he decided to kill.
"Mirror Hongchen, the Spiritual Tower, huh, it seems that our Hongchen Hall Master may have other little thoughts." Xu Tianran said with a smile. "But there is no hurry. When I ascend to the throne, some people and some forces must be cleansed. The Dream God Realm is a good thing, and the soul is also a good thing. They cannot be controlled by other forces."
Juzi's delicate body trembled, her eyelids drooped, and her long eyelashes covered the emotions in her eyes.
Xu Tianran looked back at Juzi and said, "Juzi, don't be so reserved between you and me. You are the person I trust the most. When I ascend the throne, the first thing I will do is to make you the queen. You are the mother of the country. You are always so reserved, which makes you lack the grace of the queen."
Juzi shook her head and said, "Your Highness, you know. Juzi is not following you for any position. Juzi has only two wishes, one is to stay by your side forever. The other is to destroy the Xingluo Empire."
Xu Tianran nodded gently and said, "Both of your wishes will come true. You are now a disciple of Xuan Ziwen and have entered Mingde Hall. After dealing with Jing Hongchen, Mingde Hall can be handed over to you to lead."
"Thank you, Your Highness." Juzi hurriedly knelt down beside Xu Tianran's wheelchair.
Xu Tianran raised his hand to support her and said, "I've already said that we don't need to be so polite. If you hadn't saved my life, I would have been dead long ago. There are many capable subordinates around me, but you are the only one who really makes me feel at ease."
Juzi's beautiful eyes were full of gratitude, but Xu Tianran didn't notice that deep in her eyes, there was a sense of indifference.
After Dai Hao's death, her thoughts on destroying the Xingluo Empire faded a lot, but at that time, she was already in a quagmire and could not get out.
Originally, according to her own plan and Xu Tianran's intention, she was going to join the military to control the army, but just because of this little emotional difference, she was arranged by Xu Tianran to be an undercover agent in Mingde Hall.
She knew Xu Tianran's character too well. This prince is really powerful, wise, forbearing, and ruthless.
However, since he broke his legs and lost his male ability, his personality has become increasingly cold, and he doesn't trust anyone, including her. Otherwise, she wouldn't be working undercover in Mingde Hall now.
"The preparations for the competition are almost done, right? How many people have come from the Spiritual Tower and Shrek Academy?" Xu Tianran continued to ask.
"It's almost done. There are many people from the Spiritual Tower and Shrek Academy, and almost all of their young geniuses have come." Ju Zi said.
Xu Tianran nodded with satisfaction: "This time, I hope they will be more sensible and choose the right tree to live in. Speaking of which, I also want to thank the two people from the Holy Spirit Church. They helped us solve the foundation of Shrek Academy. Now Shrek Academy and the Spiritual Tower can be included in the empire after we unify the continent. If they hand over the Dream God Realm and the Soul, they will become the holy land of the empire. Otherwise, it would be a pity."
Ju Zi was silent.
Xu Tianran continued, "There was also a huge battle in the Tiandou Empire a year ago. We also need to find out what happened. I have given this matter to you for a year, but you still haven't found anything."
"Please punish me, Your Majesty!" Juzi half-knelt on the ground.
Xu Tianran smiled and said, "The matter involves the gods. It's not your fault if you can't find out. I will acquit you. By the way, go and ask Mr. Zhongli to come and tell him that I have something important to discuss with him."
"Yes." Juzi withdrew. She knew that Xu Tianran was knocking her again.
Xu Tianran looked at Juzi's back with a dim gaze until the other party disappeared completely.
At this moment, the sky was suddenly rendered blue like an ocean, and at the same time, another fiery red figure soared into the sky, blocking the blue field.
Xu Tianran looked at the scene that seemed like a natural disaster, his pupils shrank slightly, and his heart was terrified.
