The reborn prince's little palace maid in the apocalypse

In the dark cell, An Yi and An Jiu listened to An San's explanation of the technique Ren Gu was currently practicing called [Swallowing the Sky].

Because An Jiu has been practicing for more than two years, he has always believed that this is a Taoist method of cultivating the mind and maintaining health.

I didn't expect that this was a skill, and it was nothing if it didn't have moves. An Jiu looked at An San puzzledly.

An San took out two more books, opened a page in each, and said to An Yi and An Jiu: "Although it is an unofficial rumor, these books have mentioned this technique. The Taoist nun's name is no longer available. Yes, it is said that by practicing this skill to the seventh level, she can increase her own skill by ten or even dozens of times."

"Wow! So powerful? Then I want to be the best in the world!" An Jiu felt as if he had found a treasure.

"Shut up! An San, go on." An Yi thought that this was wrong. There was nothing so cheap in the world, and the look on An San's face was wrong.

An San ignored An Jiu at all, but sighed, and continued: "It is true that it can improve one's skill, but it consumes one's life. Every time you use it, you can see aging visible to the naked eye, and you can clearly feel the passage of life. "

An nodded and said: "That's it. All things in the world are harmonious with yin and yang, and there is a cycle of cause and effect. Only by giving up can you gain. How can the creation of heaven and earth be easily used by mortals."

"So this technique can only be used once after being practiced? Will you die if you use it?" An Jiu scratched his head: "Brothers, can this technique be disabled? If it is practiced, what will happen if I accidentally use it? manage?"

An Yi didn't know either, so he looked at An San, who shook his head.

"Kung Fu cannot be abolished, but your martial arts can be abolished. Without Kung Fu, there is nothing to increase your skill."

"How can that work? It's better to let me die after using it once!"

"Okay, let's go further. Let's hear what your third brother has to say." An Yi saw that Xiao Jiu and An San were getting further and further apart, so he quickly brought the topic back. "An San, please continue to talk about this [Swallowing the Sky] technique."

"When the Taoist nun saw that she had created such a set of skills, she thought it was ominous, so she sealed it up. However, she didn't expect that some of her descendants would want to avenge a bloody sea of ​​​​blood, so she practiced this skill, hoping to take her life with her. Changing lives, the blood-sword enemy, but didn't want to practice to the eighth level. He found that he could absorb the lives of others and replenish his own life. After he took revenge, he didn't want to practice this skill anymore, but he didn't want to stop. This skill It moved on its own in his body, and all those who came close to him were sucked out of life by him and died. In the end, he also went crazy and committed suicide. This technique became a forbidden technique and was boycotted and destroyed by martial arts people. Later, I don't know how this book fell into the hands of a person from outside the territory. The man had red hair and blue eyes and came across the sea. He believed that if he could practice to the last level, he would be immortal, so he founded a sect called Tuntian. , during the previous dynasty, the court and Jianghu recognized it as a cult and exterminated it. But I don’t want to see this technique again now.”

"Why is such a powerful technique in Ren Gu's hands?" An Jiu asked

Well, An San looked at the book in his hand and said: "It is said that this mental method is not difficult, and it is the introductory method of the Swallowing Heaven Sect. That sect only has this method, and everyone who joins the sect has a copy. . It’s just that in this early stage of cultivation, it is really just a Taoist mental method of cultivating the body and Qi, and there is nothing special about it. It is necessary to practice to the seventh level or above to increase the skill. For sucking the lives of others, it is said that one has to practice to the eighth level. Except for the suicide Except for people, I have never heard of anyone who has practiced to the eighth level. The Tiantian Sect was wiped out when they promoted this technique. The old eunuch was a remnant of the Tiantian Sect, and he got this skill by accident." An San pointed at Rengu inside and said, "Want to use him to verify the efficacy of this technique? Otherwise, why do we need to regularly check how far he has practiced it?"

An Jiu listened to An San's story like a story, and asked casually: "Since it won't be useful until the seventh or eighth floor, I'm not in a hurry. By the way, do I still need to purify myself?"

An San was shocked when he heard An Jiu's words, "What kind of body do you want to clean up?"

An Yi learned from An San about this boy's strange ideas.

An San glared at An Jiu: "The forces behind the old eunuch have been found out. You can only see him two or three times and avoid him. Your Highness will deal with him soon, and he may not have a chance to get close to you. "

An nodded and looked at An San and An Jiu, then said to An Jiu: "You have been sorting it out in the past two days, and you will be on duty with His Highness the day after tomorrow. Remember to remember all the threads on Rengu's body clearly, so as not to damage His Highness. matter."

Then he pointed at the dead Ren Gu and said to An San: "Burn this clean, others will find the flaw."

An San nodded, opened the fence and went to dispose of the body.

An Jiu was at the table, smearing in front of the mirror on the table. He made the disguise on his face look more natural, and then said to An Yi: "Brother, don't worry. Brother Six has newly prepared the potion for me. I don't have to take it off once for ten days and a half if I wear it."

An Yi then asked An San to watch An Jiu carefully and not let him do anything unreasonable. Just left the secret prison.

An Yi came to the study room in the East Palace and reported to Yan Sinian about the Tuntian Sect.

Yan Sinian, who was reviewing the memorial, thought for a while. He didn't know about the Tuntian Sect in his previous life, nor had he heard of anyone from this sect around Yan Hongyang. Of course, it's possible that no one told him.

An Yi also found out one thing, that is, the old eunuch from the cold palace, everyone called him Eunuch Xiang. His surname was Wu before he entered the palace. It is said that in the Tiantian Sect, anyone who joins the sect must change their surname to Wu. So An Yi doesn't know if this is a coincidence or if he is the remnant of that cult.

"So in addition to being a member of the imperial concubine, Eunuch Xiang may also be a member of a cult organization in the world?" Yan Sinian asked.

"There is no evidence, but it cannot be ruled out." An Yi replied.

Yan Sinian thought for a moment and did not dwell on the issue. Instead, he asked, "How far has Xiaojiu's technique reached?"

"It's the fifth floor."

"I have practiced to the fifth level in more than two years!" It seems that this forbidden technique is quite simple.

"The original Rengu has reached the peak of 40%. Xiaojiu has worked harder to catch up with his progress. In addition, he is a prodigy in martial arts and has a foundation in kung fu, so he is faster than ordinary people." Those in the Tuntian Sect would be so angry that they would faint when they heard An Yi's words. It's easy to get started with that technique, and you can master the first three levels as long as you have some patience. But the further you go, the harder it gets. Talent, character, and endurance are all indispensable. It can only be said that An Jiu is the kind of person that God chases after him to feed him, and he is still as good as he is when he feeds him.

"Look at him and stop practicing. This doesn't sound like a good thing." Yan Sinian asked An Yi to stare at Xiao Jiu. Those who can become good friends with Xiao Ba are the same kind of people. They are not afraid of anything. Don't be afraid of the earth, you will have a taste of everything.

"Nuo" Even if His Highness didn't tell him, An Yi would still watch Xiao Jiu and not let him practice this technique.

"As for the old eunuch named Wu, check again. If he only has contact with the imperial concubine and the prime minister, and has no collusion in the world, just hand him over to Eunuch Feng. When you arrest him, you can take Xiaoba with you. ." Yan Sinian was afraid that Eunuch Feng had a political background, so he asked An Yi to bring Xiao Ba to help.

Yan Sinian thought for a moment and added: "Ping Qi has soy beef and ham, if she didn't take them away."

"Nuo" An Yi's voice contained a hint of helplessness. But it’s okay, Xiaoba can work first and give him food later.

"It's been hard work these days. Now we're just waiting for the New Year's Eve banquet." After hearing the prince's words, An Yi bowed and left.

A trace of interest flashed across Yan Sinian's eyes, and a bloodthirsty light surged deep in his eyes. A sneer appeared on his lips, he picked up the cinnabar-stained brush and continued to review the memorials on the table.

┏ (゜w゜)\u003d?I have passed the nine-day dividing line

Nine days have passed, but His Majesty has not left seclusion. Su Laiguang issued a decree saying that His Majesty would discuss scriptures and Taoism with the eminent monks of the Imperial Temple and Taoist Lin Jiu of Tianji Temple. Before sealing the throne at the end of the year, the government affairs would be handed over to the prince.

In the harem, the Queen was also ill. In the past few days, the imperial concubine has taken over the affairs of the palace banquet, and even invited the queen mother out to communicate with the prince. She couldn't let her go to the Prince's East Palace as a concubine, let alone call the Prince to her Yuhua Palace, so they could only meet and discuss it in the Queen Mother's Ci'en Palace.

Maybe the imperial concubine was a little excited about organizing such a big event. She actually wanted the ladies of the second rank or above in Kyoto and the families of officials to bring their legitimate daughters to participate.

It happened that the prince regretted rejecting the emperor before. At that time, his reason was that he was afraid that the queen would be tired. Now that the concubine is in charge, the prince took the opportunity to agree.

The Queen Mother looked at the concubine who was busy jumping up and down, and thought of the eighth prince who died at the beginning of the year, and nodded in agreement.

Abbot Deji and Yuantong of the Imperial Temple, as well as Master Lin Jiu of Tianji Temple, accompanied the emperor and had stayed at the astrological platform of Qintian Prison for nine days. But the emperor has no intention of letting them go yet.

The emperor has also been hesitant these days, not knowing how to deal with this matter.

He originally wanted to be willful once and let everyone bear the wrath of the emperor and the bloodshed for thousands of miles.

But the Master of Tianji Temple persuaded him and said: "What your Majesty asked for has actually been obtained, but the process is different from what your Majesty thought. The result is the same. Your Highness is now the prince."

Emperor Jingtian always felt that there was something wrong with what the viewer said, but he couldn't fault it. If at the time of the incident, he could have gone his own way, but now that his status has been determined, if it were revealed again, he would really have nothing to do to make trouble. But if he didn't say it, this matter would never get around the hurdle in his heart.

He said to Taoist Master Lin Jiu: "You know what happened before. Over the years, I always thought that the queen didn't like Xiao Shiyi because of the name I gave him. But I thought about their mother-son connection, and I thought that in her heart It's a little awkward, but I won't hate the child in the end." At this point, the emperor sneered: "She is worthy of being a queen taught by a century-old family. She is so scheming, so Shenfu, and has good tricks. She deceived me so hard. . I'm sorry... Si Nian!"
