Chapter 1061: Meet again(2/2)
After entering the city and the post house, Lu Guan waited for the emperor's summons, while Shang Yi and Ruan Yushu found an excuse to visit their old friends and went to the street together.
On the way, Ruan Yushu said something casually:
"That was finger-twisting just now!?"
Shang Yi nodded and said:
"Yes, in a world of reincarnation, I learned it from an old monk who was half-stepping on location. In addition, I have already understood the third form of "Tathagata Divine Palm" - "Nianhua Finger".
Its power is even stronger than that of Shaolin Temple in the real world!"
Ruan Yushu took a deep look at Shang Yi and said:
"He is worthy of being a 'Son of Buddha'."
The streets of the capital intersect in a chessboard shape. The Xiaoxiang Tower is far away from the post house. However, Shang Yi can see the location of Meng Qi and others with his clairvoyance, so he does not need to ask for directions. He takes Ruan Yushu and spends a cup of tea to get there.
Xiaoxiang Tower.
"The reputation of the Sword Immortal has spread throughout the capital, and there are really no empty warriors under this great reputation."
He and Ge Huaien stood by the steps of the restaurant, as if they were waiting for them.
Immediately, Meng Qi said:
"There are many people here, let's talk after we get in."
Shang Yi nodded and silently followed Meng Qi and Ge Huaien through the lobby of the restaurant, across the small bridge and flowing water, and arrived at an elegant and quiet courtyard at the back.
"As soon as you entered the city, I received a reminder from the Lord of Six Paths of Reincarnation."
After closing the door and carefully checking the surroundings, Meng Qi opened his mouth to explain.
This is how collaborative tasks should be…
At this moment, the cold and distant voice of the Lord of Six Paths of Reincarnation sounded again:
"The second main mission begins. Help Lu Guan regain the emperor's trust and command his troops. If successful, he will be rewarded with 400 good deeds. If he fails, the corresponding good deeds will be deducted."
"Regain the emperor's trust..."
Shang Yi's expression remained unchanged, while Ruan Yushu frowned slightly and looked at Meng Qi:
"Xiao Meng, your main line 'Mission One' should be related to this, right?"
Meng Qi nodded and pointed to the table full of food and wine: "Let's talk while we eat."
Ruan Yushu seemed to be impatient, completely forgetting that he had just asked Meng Qi, and already picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started eating elegantly.
"The Western Pirates were victorious. They stationed troops in the upper reaches of the Pei River and sent envoys to negotiate. The conditions were harsh. The emperor was so angry that he suffered a stroke and fell into a coma."
Meng Qi said calmly:
"Our main task one is to gain the trust of a certain prince and temporarily prevent the peace talks. Now it seems that if we can help the prince we support ascend to the throne, main task two can be successfully completed."

"Who do you support?"
Meng Qi smiled slightly when he heard this and said:
"We now support the fourth prince. Although he is the main militant, he can also see the situation clearly. He helped us temporarily stop the peace talks when Lu Guan did not arrive, and completed the main task one!
Moreover, after I created a reputation as the ‘Shocking Sword’ in the capital, the Sword Emperor came to test me. He is the fourth prince’s teacher, and he wanted to exchange swordsmanship with me and use him to meet the fourth prince!”
Shang Yi smiled and said:
"Where are the other princes?"
"The prince is the orthodox one. He has the national master, the Ruyi monk, and many courtiers behind him. The fourth prince is a disciple of the Sword Emperor and is quite popular in the world. There are many important officials in the court who secretly communicate with him. The seventh prince is the most trusted by the emperor.
, full of poems and books, skilled in bow and horse, but has no foundation in the world of martial arts. Originally, the Left Chancellor of the Political Hall wanted to belong to him because of his relationship with the emperor, but now that the emperor is in coma, I don’t know if there is a chance to wake up, and he has alienated him again. "
"However, now he seems to know his shortcomings. He knows how to communicate with courtiers and secretly recruits masters. I suspect that the Queen has secretly entered the capital and is living in the Seventh Prince's Mansion."
"The Sword Emperor's strength is definitely half a step outside. If there are no masters in the imperial city or court, this kind of character can completely influence the political situation, and anyone who refuses to accept it can be assassinated."
"However, the Confucianism of this family is strong, and there are countless rituals, music, and imperial books. Those who can be called great Confucians are not weak, such as the Right Prime Minister Wang Derang, the "Reincarnation Star King", and the half-Confucian and half-Taoist Imperial Master.
Master Changle, they all insist on distinguishing the elder and the younger, reject heretics, and despise those who abuse force. If they want to assassinate the emperor and the prince, even the Demon Queen and the Sword Emperor have to plan for a long time to find an opportunity."
Shang Yi nodded when he heard this and said:
"It seems that the prince is now the most powerful and has the best chance of succeeding to the throne!"
Meng Qi smiled confidently:
"The emperor has been in office for many years, and as he gets older, he is wary of the prince. He is very unhappy and suppresses him repeatedly. If it were not for the protection of the imperial master, I am afraid that the prince would have been deposed. Therefore, if there is an emperor's decree, the same goes for other princes.
There is a possibility of ascending to the throne, but after the emperor fell into a coma, the right minister, who was always loyal to the emperor, stayed in the Taiji Hall at night, not giving anyone a chance to tamper with the will."
Shang Yi sighed and said:
"It seems that I may not be able to wait until the time for the imperial edict to be read out smoothly.
The prince is not stupid. He knows that the emperor will not pass the throne to him, so he can only take it by himself! Maybe the prince is already planning to kill the king and seize the throne!"
Meng Qi was shocked when he heard this and said:
"Why didn't I think of this level!?"
Ruan Yushu swallowed the food in his mouth and said with a smile:
"Isn't this our opportunity? Once the prince kills the king, we will have reason to support the fourth prince in seizing the throne! Then it won't matter what the edict is! Even if the Imperial Master and the others want to support the prince, they can't!"
Shang Yi nodded:
"That's right! So during this period, our focus should not only be on the fourth prince, but we should also pay close attention to the palace, lest we don't know about the emperor's death and be at a disadvantage!
