Thousands of years ago, the life and death of Emperor Li Qing is still a mystery. At that time, the Tang Dynasty was so powerful that the Tang Dynasty was everywhere. Wherever the Tang Dynasty flag went, the four barbarians were in power. Emperor Li Qing was in power for 60 years and was 96 years old. But what shocked the court officials and the vassal states the most was that the emperor's appearance seemed to have never changed much since he ascended the throne. Even in the last year of his reign, the 96-year-old emperor still looked only over thirty years old.

Birth, old age, sickness and death are normal, but the traces of time do not seem to leave any precipitation on the emperor. Before the emperor ascended the throne, he was already a master of martial arts. He was in power for 60 years and no one had ever seen the emperor take action again. No one knew how far the emperor finally reached.

What's most strange is that in the last month, it seemed that the Emperor had been preparing something, as if he could accurately predict that he was about to leave this world.

All the files on the night when the Emperor passed away were gone, and the guards and palace maids who accompanied the Emperor disappeared mysteriously after that night.

There is no file to check, no insider can ask, only the abnormal celestial phenomena that were passed down from word to word. More than a thousand years later, these legends have been beyond recognition and are so magical that it is hard to believe.

More than a hundred years ago, the Cao family usurped the throne and Chang'an changed drastically. More top-secret files were either disappeared without a trace or destroyed by war, making many things even more confusing. After Cao's successful takeover, he has been exploring the secrets of that night for hundreds of years, but he has never gained nothing.

But unlike the world, they still control Chang'an after all, and still hold many files from that year. Although they are incomplete, they can see some clues from it. The most valuable one is some notes left by the eldest son of the emperor.

Based on these notes, the Emperor should not have died, but went to another place, which was called a different time and space by the Emperor's eldest son.

But this inference was too shocking, which made the Cao family, who successfully seized the throne, always worried and half-believing. If the emperor really did not die, it would be a catastrophe for the Cao family who seized the throne. For hundreds of years, the Cao family has been tirelessly chasing the Li family's children. In addition to the thousand-year legend, they also wanted to pursue this secret from the Li family's children who fled that year. Hundreds of years have passed, and although it has faded, there are still a very small number of people who have doubts about it. Cao Chong is one of them.

Cao Chong, the martial arts genius of the Cao family, entered the ranks of martial arts masters under the age of forty. He should have inherited the throne of the Great Qi Dynasty, but he was obsessed with martial arts and thought he was not a good emperor, and his mind was not above governing the country at all. What he wanted to pursue was the path that Emperor Li Qing had taken back then.

What is above the master?

In recent years, Cao Chong has realized that he has stood at the peak of the martial arts master. No matter how hard he tried, he has no reason to make progress. However, based on many of the remaining robbers left by the Tang Palace back then, he clearly knew that the power of the emperor was far above him. There must be another way out above the master.

The confused Cao Chong quietly made a big move a few years ago and sneaked into the tomb of Emperor Li Qing alone. Even after the Cao family successfully took office, the tomb of Emperor Li Qing was still the most sacred place in this world. No one dared to disrespect him. Cao Chong quietly broke into the tomb, but he found nothing in the tomb of the emperor.

The golden coffin was empty, without the remains of the emperor.

This made Cao Chong even more convinced that after breaking through the shackles of the martial arts master, the emperor must have reached a new realm and had no nostalgia for this world, so he abandoned his throne. Otherwise, he would not be able to explain the incredible secrets of the past.

This excited Cao Chong.

After years of exploration, no progress was made, which forced him to find some fellow practitioners to study together. However, there are only a handful of people in this world who can compare with him to discuss the Tao. After all, there are only two or three people, and the Weizhuang of Yueguo is one of them.

He also believed that as long as Wei Zhuang and him began to explore this secret, all the worldly affairs would no longer move him. Without Wei Zhuang, Yue Kingdom would lose a big tree to protect, which would also be beneficial for the unification of the Great Qi world. Why not do good things that can win two birds with one stone?

After falling into a trap, Weizhuang, who had no choice but to follow Cao, could no longer care about Yue Kingdom. The Qi army commanded by Cao Yun captured Zhaoguan within ten days. Luo Yishui, the general of Yue Kingdom stationed in Zhaoguan, led only hundreds of personal guards to break through. After Zhaoguan lost, Yue Kingdom opened its doors, and Qi Kingdom's 100,000 troops were scattered. In the remaining months, they occupied half of the territory of Yue Kingdom. It was not until this time that Yue Kingdom finally organized a decent counterattack and stabilized the battle.

At this time, Qin finally barely sent an army to the junction of Qi and attacked Qin to relieve the pressure on Yue. However, the poor domestic economic form made Qin fierce and cowardly.

In Chu, there was endless debate over whether to send troops to attack Qi. The pro-war faction led by Cheng Wuben, the general who returned to the court, strongly advocated that the eastern border army would attack with all its might at this time and protect Yue. However, another faction led by Ma Xiangdong believed that Qi was no longer able to advance into the depths of Yue. At this time, Chu should first stabilize the domestic situation and calm the sequelae of the Western border army's defeat, and not benefit the new war. If the eastern border army was defeated again in the battle with Qi, it was afraid that the country would be in chaos.

The two factions argued endlessly, but the new emperor Min Ruoying, who had succeeded to the throne for only more than a month, remained silent. In response to this, Luo Liang, the new commander of the Eastern Conference who had always advocated that he should launch a large-scale attack on the East Qi Dynasty, also remained silent.

The attitudes of these two people basically show the current policy and policy of Chu, which is to watch Qi and Yue fight. Yue Chu does not have a border, but Yue Qin has a very long border line. Once Yue and Yue are not protected, Qin will fall into the semi-encirclement of Qi. Therefore, the most anxious thing is Qin. What Chu wants to see most is Qin to provide a large-scale assistance to Yue, which will cause a stalemate between Qi and Yue Qin.

Of course, the failure of Chu to send troops does not mean that it cannot aid Qin. Therefore, the final solution is to provide Qin with a large amount of food, weapons, etc. so that Qin will not be too ineffective in this battle to aid Vietnam.

Peng Wu walked on the vast streets of Shangjing and had been back to China for several months. After being reviewed by the inner guard, he was reassigned his position. Of course, his identity had been exposed and he married a woman from Qi as his wife. He could no longer serve in the inner guard. However, as the first person to discover that the princess followed Princess Zhaohua to return to China, he was assigned a good position, the warden of the imperial prison. The former warden, who was involved in the Western Frontier Army case, had been deprived of his official position for dereliction of duty and was waiting for the prison to be held accountable.

The warden of Zhaozhu is a good position. Although there is not much extra money, because the imperial prison of Chu was empty for most of the time. Even if someone was imprisoned, he still disdained to bribe the prisoners. However, the salary of ordinary prisoners can be as high as that of the fifth-rank official. The salary of the warden can be comparable to that of the second- and third-rank officials. This salary has already made the fat man Peng Wu very satisfied. In the seven or eight years in Luoying County, he has also saved a lot of wealth, enough to allow him to live a decent life in Shangjing.

But now his heart was filled with haze. In Zhaozhu, he met an acquaintance, the Qin Feng and Qin Captain who was flattered in Luoying County.

The situation in Qin Zhengwei is extremely bad now. In Peng Wu's opinion, he struggles on the brink of life and death almost every day. After reading some case files related to Qin Zhengwei, Peng Wu's first reaction was that he did not believe it.

The scene where Princess Zhaohua was rescued was the closest insider. More importantly, Qin Feng was on the verge of death at that time. Peng Wu could not believe it because he said that Qin Feng was a spy from Qin.

But he didn't dare to say more, and even dared to look at Qin Feng. After being an inner guard for so many years, he knew how deep the water was. He was a small warden and was simply insignificant. Not only did he ignore what he said, he could even put himself in.

Walking on the street, he felt a little painful. Qin Feng and Captain Qin were a good guy, but being thrown into prison like this seemed to be almost forgotten.

The court's verdict had already been delivered, and Ling Chi was executed. It was just that because the old emperor passed away, the new emperor succeeded to the throne, and then Qi invaded Vietnam, and the world was in chaos. The court had not had time to pay attention to this matter for a while. Or, the court wanted to make this matter colder and colder, and when no one paid attention to this matter, Qin Feng would be executed.

But can Qin Feng really last until that time? Peng Wu expressed his doubts. In his opinion, Qin Feng, who is in prison, may die anytime and anywhere. He has been with Qin Feng for almost two months, and he also knows a lot about Qin Feng's physical hidden dangers.

Perhaps it would be a better choice for Qin Feng to die after his injury. He thought in his heart.

Stopped suddenly, he looked up at a magnificent building ahead.

Princess Zhaohua’s Mansion.

That is Princess Zhaohua's mansion. If there is anyone who can save Qin Feng now, it is only Princess Zhaohua. Princess Zhaohua and Qin Feng are Jiji and me in Luoying County. Peng Wu can be said to be the clearest. Could it be that Princess Zhaohua really ignores Qin Feng and lets him die like this inexplicable?

He hesitated for a moment, and finally walked towards Princess Zhaohua's mansion.
