Pluto's Golden Apple

"Huanrou, has His Highness Li Xun agreed to help you take revenge?" Jue Leng was always thinking about her, so that Jue Leng never thought of asking her why she appeared in Hades' palace earlier than himself.

Huanrou stared at her, as if she couldn't bear everything, but she collapsed at this moment, how could she be worthy of Pluto's sacrifice?Pluto seems to have thought about all this for a long time. Wasn't his last sentence telling Huanrou to keep this secret secret?Perhaps in this way, for Jue Leng, he would not lose two people he cared about all at once.

"His Highness Li Xun is a good person, and he can't understand the strength of His Majesty the Emperor, so he agreed to me." Huanrou smiled lightly. It was the first time she lied to Jue Leng, and she lied so calmly that it was impossible for Jue Leng to show any flaws. Didn't see it.

"His Royal Highness Li Xun is really a good person, Huanrou. I will officially succeed to the throne in a while. From now on, I will be Pluto. I promised you that I will avenge you. I will never forget this. With His Highness Li Xun , our strength should be stronger." Jue Leng held Huanrou's hand, but she was already very nervous, she was afraid that she would make a mistake later and make the gods laugh at her.

"Every minute Jueleng holds the scepter, he will feel unbearable pain." Huanrou stroked her cheek very lovingly.

Jue Leng lowered his head: "Well, it hurts every minute, but I will work harder to cultivate my divine power in the future, and try to make up for what I lost before. My time is still quite long, Huanrou, don't worry about me." He pulled out a smile coldly.

Huanrou stretched out her hand and helped her tidy up her clothes. It was a black palace gown embroidered with manjusawa. The palace clothes looked exquisite and gorgeous, not as cold as the one worn by Pluto.

"From now on, my Jue Leng will be His Majesty Pluto, but I am still so careless when I wear clothes." Huanrou smiled while helping her smooth out a wrinkle behind her, and Jue Leng smiled. After so many days, she still It was the first time I laughed so heartily: "It's okay, Huanrou will be by my side to help me in the future, so that I won't have to learn to tidy my clothes in my whole life."

Huanrou's heart was sour, tears rolled in her eyes, and she was about to flow out, but she was forced to hold back: "Okay, then I will keep tidying my clothes for Julen." But, can it really last?From the moment she made the choice to assassinate Pluto, she no longer dared to look at Jue Leng's passionate and clear eyes.Absolutely cold is still absolutely cold, but she is no longer her.

Before Pluto passed away, he said something in her ear, which terrified her greatly.Pluto said that the current sea emperor was changed by Huanbi, the fourth princess of the heaven, and the real sea emperor should have been imprisoned by the emperor.Tell Li Xun this information, Li Xun will definitely not sit idly by.

She didn't expect that Huanyun would come up with such a situation for the stability of her throne, and she did all these outrageous and unnatural things for the sake of power.That's right, she even dared to kill the queen mother, so why would she be afraid of a nominal husband?How vicious is her heart?

"Your Highness, it's time to go to the enthronement ceremony." Heiji walked in. Since the announcement of the will, he has become the new underworld minister, the seat that countless gods in the underworld yearn for.Heiji naturally understood what His Majesty Pluto had entrusted to him until his death, and he finally understood the last intention of the man who was his father.It turned out that what he said back then actually meant this.Naturally, he is loyal to His Majesty, that's right, because in the future, the prince of the underworld will become his majesty, and the king of the underworld wants him to swear his allegiance to Jue Leng to the death.Perhaps from then on, Pluto didn't plan to live much longer.When Heiji thinks of Pluto, he always feels extremely sad.These years of service made him regard Pluto as his father. How could a father not move him if he could plan carefully for his children?

"Got it." Jue Leng still had something on his mind.Even though the sadness in her heart has not been shaken, she still has to shake her teeth to take over the position of Pluto. This must be the scene her father would like to see the most.

"Huanrou, I'm a little scared, afraid that I won't do well." Jue Leng murmured.

Huanrou laughed: "Who says I can't do a good job with Jue Leng? Jue Leng is the heir of the Underworld handpicked by His Majesty Hades, and he is extremely intelligent. He will definitely make the underworld prosperous in the future."

When Jue Leng heard Huan Rou encouraging her, she became happy again: "Really?"

"En." Huanrou looked at her seriously, even though there were a thousand knives cutting her heart at the moment.

"Okay, then I'll go." Jue Leng smiled slightly, and couldn't help clenching his teeth the moment he picked up the scepter, and walked out of the bedroom slowly.

Today is definitely a big day for the underworld.The enthronement of a new king has always been more grand.Everyone is skeptical about whether the new Pluto can control the underworld well.Although everyone can agree that His Royal Highness Ming Chu is smart, but His Royal Highness Ming Chu's divine power... is really not flattering.If you want to be a good king of Pluto, you need to strengthen your divine power training.Pluto Shuyi is definitely a wise king. Under his rule, the underworld is prosperous like never before. It is not expected that the new king can surpass him, but as long as he can keep the prosperity at 01:30 for him, the gods will be satisfied.What's more, Jue Leng is still the queen, which makes the gods feel a little uncertain. The underworld has not had a queen for several generations, and the queen closest to the new king should be traced back to Jue Leng's great-grandmother.In short, Jue Leng felt uneasy, and so did the gods.

"Your Majesty, please wear the crown and receive the king's seal." Heiji presented an exquisite plate in front of Jue Leng, which contained an exquisite crown and a rather imposing king's seal. Only a huge Pixiu.

Jue Leng took a deep breath, took the crown and seal from Hei Ji, and slowly put the crown on his head.She was a little uneasy, she wanted to find Huanrou's sight, and sure enough, Huanrou was smiling slightly at her.She also saw her brother, who also smiled at her.These smiles gave her a little courage.

Seeing Jue Leng put on the crown, the gods hurriedly knelt down: "Long live His Majesty Pluto, long live, long live."

Jue Leng is actually very helpless in his heart, long live, but even if he is a god, who can live to [-] years old?No matter how you look at this ceremony, it looks as vulgar as the mortal world.Jue Leng said solemnly: "Everyone, let's live in peace. I succeed to the throne today, but I want to be blessed by my ancestors, not to become the greatest Pluto in the underworld, but to make no mistakes, and not let the shadow of my ancestors be ruined by the widows." In the future, if there is anything wrong with the widow, I hope you adults will forgive me a lot. I am young, and I hope you adults will give me more advice."

The gods felt a bit of comfort in their hearts. At least in terms of etiquette, their new king has done a good job. Jue Leng still has a certain ability to learn in this area, which she has shown outstandingly since she was a child.

"Your Majesty, the late king said that His Royal Highness and the princess should be moved out of Hades. I don't know how His Majesty plans to arrange it?" After all, Hei Ji still had a problem with Huanqing in his heart. He understood more and more why the late king made such an arrangement. I'm afraid that if the news gets out, Zefeng and Huanqing are not in the underworld, at least they will be safe.

"This..." Jue Leng frowned, how could she know her father's true intentions?She also thought that her father was too defensive, afraid that her elder brother and elder sister Qing and even the child who would be born in the future would threaten her throne.

"Confer Shu Zefeng as King of Hecheng, and let him stay in Hades for a while longer, and then assign him out of Hades after the child is delivered. After all, the child is a descendant of my Shu family, and the level of genius doctors in Hades is relatively high. Time will depend on whether it is the little princess or the little heir, let's leave after the birth and entrustment." Jue Leng can't disobey her father's will, even though she doesn't want her brother and sister Qing to leave, but she is helpless.

Shu Zefeng has been watching her with a smile all the time, Jue Leng has really grown up, after all his father did not entrust others to him.It's just that he doesn't understand his father very well. He and Jue Leng have always been good friends. He even gave up his own life for Jue Leng. I don't know why the father has to guard against him until death?Perhaps, being born in the royal family is so desolate, and if you want to go back to Hades to see Absolute Leng, you have to notify in advance.

Jue Leng only felt a strange feeling. She was sitting on the throne where her father once sat. Everything was so familiar yet so strange.She suddenly felt that Pluto's seat was really cold, so high above her, she suddenly understood her father's feeling. In the words of later generations, that feeling should be that it is too cold at a high place.

"Your Majesty, there is a man outside the palace asking to see him. He said his name is Li Xun." The ceremonial officer suddenly came in to announce.The ministers looked at each other, Li Xun?Isn't it the prince who was exiled in Penglai in the legend?How did he come?The relationship between the Underworld and the Sea Realm and Heaven Realm has been very delicate in recent years. Now that the new king has succeeded to the throne, even the Emperor of the Sea and the Emperor did not come to congratulate him. Why did Li Xun, who had disappeared from everyone's sight for so long, come instead?

Jue Leng immediately understood what was going on. His Highness Li Xun really knows how to choose time, but today is his succession, and the officials are rarely so concentrated. It is good to discuss the countermeasures with the officials. Anyway, sooner or later, he will attack the heavens. .Huan Rou and Huan Qing looked at each other, and both of them had a very strange emotion.

"Your Majesty, we have never had any contact with Penglai in the Underworld. His Majesty ascended the throne today, but His Highness Li Xun came here suddenly and did not notify in advance. I'm afraid it's not kind." An old official said.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I am also worried that he has no good intentions, and I hope that Your Majesty will be ready to meet the enemy." Another old fairy echoed.

"My loves, you don't have to worry. Rather than guessing here, we might as well invite that highness to know his purpose. I don't think he will be so reckless, otherwise why would he come here alone?"

The gods looked at each other and discussed for a while, but nothing came out of the discussion, so they had to keep silent, expressing that they would obey Pluto's arrangement.

Jue Leng smiled slightly, and said to the ceremony officer, "Please invite His Highness Li Xun in."

Li Xun came in and saluted respectfully: "Penglai Li Xun, see His Majesty Hades. Today, His Majesty Hades ascended the throne, and Li Xun is here to congratulate you."

"His Royal Highness Li Xun quickly exempts him from the ceremony. According to seniority, His Highness Li Xun is still my cousin." Jue sneered and asked Li Xun not to be too polite.

Li Xun raised his head, suddenly startled.He had never seen Absolute Cold before, but when he saw it now, he suddenly had the illusion of seeing his aunt who passed away.Like, so much like, that demeanor, that smile, almost exactly the same as when my aunt was young.Gu Guxian passed away for so many years, but he could never forget her appearance. He used to think that Gu Gu was the most beautiful fairy in the Three Realms.

Seeing Li Xun staring blankly at her face, Jue Leng couldn't help laughing, she had already guessed what was going on in Li Xun's heart, after all, even his father would sigh unconsciously when he saw him.

"I don't know if His Highness Li Xun came here today, besides congratulations, is there anything else?" Jue sneered and signaled Li Xun to make his request.Before coming, Li Xun asked Jiufan to inquire about the news, it seems that Jue Leng is still kept in the dark by Huanrou and Huanqing, she must not know that they forced the old Pluto to death.

When Shu Zefeng saw Li Xun, he was also stunned.Having not seen each other for so many years, the two of them are no longer the children they were back then, and I don't know if he still recognizes me.Apparently, Li Xun's gaze also stayed on him, and he even smiled at him.On such an occasion, Li Xun naturally couldn't recognize each other rashly, but Shu Zefeng confirmed that look in his eyes, and Li Xun still remembered himself.

"Li Xun came here this time to persuade His Majesty Hades to attack the Heaven Realm."

As soon as Li Xun said this, the officials looked at each other in blank dismay, and the hall became lively again.

"I don't know what His Majesty Li Xun's heart is. Our underworld has always been friendly with the sea and sky. Why are you trying to persuade her to attack the heaven just after our Majesty ascended the throne today?" an old fairy asked, stroking his beard.

Jue Leng frowned slightly, and looked at Huanrou's expression, but nothing could be seen in Huanrou's expression. There was a trace of coldness in her eyes, as if she didn't care much about this matter.Jue Leng was still a little puzzled, isn't this topic the most interesting to her?

Huanrou felt displeased, Li Xun did not choose a time, but chose this time, what does it mean?One is that he has eyeliner, he is very clear that Pluto has passed away, and the other is nothing more than to confirm and show off for himself.Jue Leng had just experienced the pain of losing his father, but he chose this inappropriate time to talk about war.I wonder if he feels better?Is he here to see the cold joke?Did he come to mock the old Pluto for finally passing away?

"Gods, please listen to me. I, Li Xun, have lived in Penglai for a long time, and I have never cared about the affairs of the Three Realms. The development of the Three Realms has nothing to do with me. It's just that since the emperor came to the throne, he has become more and more cruel. It is harmful. It is said that all the gods in the heavens are afraid of the emperor's high-handed rule at this moment. As gods, it is impossible for us to shirk our responsibilities without looking at it. Since the emperor took the throne, have you done anything beneficial to the common people in the world? She indulged in the desire for power all day long, and brought a lot of disasters to the world. I am afraid that the underworld has already noticed that since she succeeded to the throne, more and more human souls have come to the underworld. Is this normal? Didn’t the death of the former king also result from overwork to a certain extent? Does the underworld still dare to say that the heaven and underworld have nothing to do with each other?”

Li Xun's words aroused a lot of discussion among the officials. Everyone found that since the emperor came to the throne, the underworld had to deal with more and more mortal souls. Although they couldn't find any necessary connection with the emperor, they all It's the gods, and their every move and mishap will cause misfortune to ordinary people in the world.Thinking about it this way, it's not completely unconnected.

"But this may also be the reason of Haidi. In the past, Haidi was unwell and thought of a way to feed virgin boys and girls. Isn't the evil retribution on his head?" asked a courtier of the underworld.

Li Xun snorted coldly, Li Kun was indeed sinister and vicious, and he was lucky to have thought of such a damaging method.

"Haidi's illness has caused the sea world to be depressed for a long time. To be honest, I think His Royal Highness Li Xun has some truth in what he said. The current emperor lost his basic morality as a god, killed his mother and king to seize her throne, and imposed a high-pressure rule on the heaven. , making people panic." Jue Leng stepped down from her throne, and stood closer to the officials: "Everyone must know that she is still detaining the second princess Huanxuan until now, because she is afraid that Huanxuan will threaten her throne. The gods of the heavenly realm also dare not speak out. When the former kings were alive, they had always had good relations with the heavenly realm, and our underworld and the heavenly realm often communicate with each other. We cannot just ignore matters in the heavenly realm just because they are not from my underworld."

The ministers discussed again.

"At that time, the emperor intended to pass the throne to Princess Huanrou, so that Princess Huanrou was gentle, caring for his subjects, and could lay a good foundation for the prosperity of the heavens. In my Hades, how could the princess not repay me for teaching me magical arts back then? Moreover, the princess had made an agreement with the former king that if she helped her recover the heavens, she would make friends with my underworld when she became the emperor, and let the underworld To prosper together with the heavens, and the first king will suffer from illness later, perhaps this is his long-cherished wish that he has always wanted to fulfill, I hope you can seriously consider His Highness Li Xun's proposal." When Jue Leng said this, some courtiers did not dare to speak more, In fact, all these years, everyone knew it in their hearts. Although no one dared to say it clearly, everyone knew that the relationship between Pluto and Princess Huanrou was not simple.

"This······"

"Your Majesty has just succeeded to the throne, can you stabilize yourself before making plans?"

"Your Majesty still thinks that it is not the right time to attack the heavens, and I hope Your Majesty will think twice."

The voice of stopping was getting louder and louder, but Heiji didn't say anything. He wanted to see how the new king would deal with this problem, and he didn't know if the previous king was wrong.

Jue Leng smashed the scepter in his hand to the ground, and there was a loud bang, which made the gods stop daring to speak immediately.At this moment, Jue Leng has an aura that makes them dare not offend easily.Jue Leng realized more and more why he would not be really happy after becoming Pluto, because there was still too much helplessness. The first step was to learn how to intimidate the ministers.They still feel that they are too young, that's why they are so unscrupulous. Before they can finish their words, some people dare to jump out and object.

Jue Leng said with a straight face: "Dear loves, do you really think that the emperor is in charge and has no influence on my underworld? The situation in my underworld is tense these years, and the former king did not dare to relax his preparations for the battle. The reason is that the emperor and Haidi have another layer Husband and wife relationship. Now that the world of heaven and the world of sea are colluding with each other, and their influence is expanding day by day, if things go on like this, how can we have a stable day in the underworld? The emperor has made too many unreasonable actions, do we really have to bear it?"

Heiji heaved a sigh of relief, it seems that the new king has worked hard, since she came back to live, the previous king has been ordering Ming Fu to teach her homework and knowledge, it seems that there are still some benefits.In fact, the previous king also foresaw that this war would come, but at that time he had no intention of going to death, and tried to protect the new king for a few more years.The more he thinks about the former king, the more sad Heiji becomes.

But there are still some courtiers who are unwilling to attack the heavens. They always believe that this matter has nothing to do with the underworld.These courtiers are generally old gods, more stubborn and conservative.

Jue Leng frowned, there were gods in the court who agreed, and there were gods who objected, she didn't know what to do for a while, everything was chaotic.She laughed at herself in her heart, how uncomfortable it would be for her father to see her like this.She suddenly wanted to hug her father, and to tell him how hard it is to be King of Pluto.But she would never see him again, never see his smile, never get his comfort.

"My lords are all right, but I wonder if I can listen to Huanrou?" Huanrou walked out and stood among the officials.The officials stopped arguing and looked at her intently.

"Huanrou was destined to be the last person to see the late emperor. Before his death, the late emperor told Huanrou that the current sea emperor in the sea palace is not His Majesty Li Kun, but my fourth younger sister Huanbi in disguise. If the late king said What I said is true, I am afraid that the current situation is quite unfavorable to the underworld. If it is true, the emperor must want to use Huanbi as a puppet to realize the situation where she rules the two worlds. When she really realizes, the underworld Do you still have the ability to resist?"

As soon as Huanrou's words came out, the officials were speechless, but then they immediately started discussing, how could this happen?The former king never mentioned this matter. If it is true, it will cause endless troubles for the underworld.

"However, His Highness hoped that the underworld would fight like this. None of us have heard the former king say so, so how can we prove it?" Some old officials still didn't believe it. They still didn't believe that Huanyun could make such a big wave.

"My lords, I can prove it." It was Heiji who spoke, and he really knew about it, but Huanrou did not lie: "When the former king was alive, one day Ao Gang from the sea world came to look for the first emperor, Ao Gang He is the son of Ao Yuan, Prime Minister of the Sea, and the ceremonial officials can testify to this. Ao Gang came here that day to ask the late king to investigate the matter thoroughly, because his ability was not enough to find out, so the late king sent us to protect Ao Gang on the one hand, and on the other hand Send someone to secretly investigate this matter. Many of us in the Ming Xun know the truth of this matter. Only the former king ordered absolute secrecy, so no news was leaked. This matter, the newly appointed leader of the Ming Xun, Yi Kuan, can also testify. If If you don't believe me, you can invite Master Ao Gang to face him."

"Your Majesty really knows about this matter, and this matter is true. The former king did expressly order to block the news, and those who disobeyed the order will be killed without mercy." Yi Kuan reported.

All the ministers looked at each other, and even Li Xun's expression changed, he only found out at this moment that he came here only to fulfill his promise, but after knowing this today, how could he have the heart to let the people of the sea world suffer?

Jue Leng sighed and showed a faint and imperceptible smile: "Then, Yi Kuan, you take someone to invite Lord Ao Gang, and tell us what's going on, and we'll make a decision."

Yi Kuan immediately knelt down and saluted, "I obey the order."
