High in the sky.
Three figures stood in three directions, staring at each other silently.
Prince Qian's eyes were filled with contempt, disdain, disgust... and so on.
After a while, Dou Tianyuan couldn't stand it anymore and said helplessly: "If you have something to say, just say it. If you have any questions, just ask them. Why are you imagining nonsense?"
"Oh, it seems that the rumor is true?"
Prince Qian curled his lips and asked, "Dou Tianyuan never married in his life , is it because of the old lady of the Hua family?"
“…”
Dou Tianyuan's hair suddenly blew up, and he said with a red face: "What nonsense are you talking about? Don't think that I won't beat you just because you are the clan leader or the prince!"
King Qian looked at him quietly, and after a moment he said, "You are anxious."
"ha?!"
Dou Tianyuan laughed angrily and looked at Old Lady Hua, "Listen, is what he said human language?"
"Don't hide it. I've always known your feelings."
Old Lady Hua sighed and shook her head, "It's a pity that the daughter of the Hua family only recognizes one person in her life."
In an instant, Dou Tianyuan seemed to be strangled by the neck, and his face turned blue and white.
The three of them were silent again.
However, after this incident, the atmosphere between the three of them was obviously much more relaxed.
Prince Qian spoke first, saying, "You want to use Taizu's legacy to continue the Hua family's power, but I don't agree."
"This is a mutually beneficial matter. Not only will Taizu's descendants not suffer any loss, but they can also benefit from it. Why would Prince Qian obstruct it?"
Old Lady Hua said calmly.
"This king is not trying to obstruct, but I just don't agree with it."
King Qian shook his head and said, "Hua Nong Yue is not talented enough, but the other one is pretty good."
"King Qian, are you talking about Yourong?"
Old Lady Hua frowned slightly, "Indeed, Yourong's talent is unmatched in the entire history of the Hua family, but her realm is still low after all. It will take at least five years to reach the ninth level of cleansing... I can't wait that long."
"This is not something that the king needs to consider."
Prince Qian said expressionlessly, "Whatever level Xu Chong is at, your Hua family must be at that level."
As soon as she finished speaking, Old Lady Hua's expression turned ugly.
If nothing unexpected happens, Xu Chong's Zifu cultivation should be about to succeed.
But even if it was just a breakthrough of Yin Shen, the Hua family couldn't find a woman of the corresponding level...
Those who are of high enough level are already married, while those who are still waiting to be married are not of high enough level.
Even the flowers and the moon are not enough...
After thinking for a while, Old Lady Hua laughed, "Those two are in love with each other now. If Prince Qian insists on breaking them up, I can do nothing about it."
Dou Tianyuan has already discovered the whereabouts of the Hua family, and it seems that there is indeed no room for negotiation.
But it does not mean that we have no chips at all.
The fact that Prince Qian personally took action alone shows how important Xu Chong is to Prince Qian.
Under such circumstances, it is impossible for King Qian to ignore Xu Chong's thoughts at all.
But Xu Chong has Hua Nong Yue in his heart.
Old Lady Hua believed that this was enough to impress King Qian.
However, King Qian shook his head: "When did I ever say I wanted to break them up?"
"Well ……"
Old Lady Hua was stunned.
"If one level is not enough, then add two together."
Prince Qian smiled and said, "As the descendant of our great ancestor, your Hua family is still the one that has taken advantage."
"impossible!"
Old Lady Hua's face changed and she flatly refused, "Nong Yue and You Rong are aunt and nephew, how can they serve the same husband?!"
"What aunt and nephew? You don't have household registration in Daqing."
Prince Qian looked disdainful, "Or do you mean that you are rebelling against the rule of the imperial court, but you agree with its ethics?"
“…”
Old Lady Hua's face froze, not knowing how to refute, so she could only shake her head stiffly and refuse: "In short, this is not feasible."
"Then there is only one other way."
Prince Qian didn't seem surprised. He flipped his palm, took out something and threw it to Old Lady Hua.
Old Lady Hua was extremely alert and caught it by wrapping it in a cloud of gas.
But when she really saw the object clearly, her whole body trembled violently and her face was filled with shock.
It was a pitch-black crystal shaped like a water droplet, emitting an extremely cold and chilly aura.
"This small drop of Holy Yin Water is the betrothal gift prepared by the royal family for Xu Chong."
King Qian raised the corner of his mouth.
"bride price……"
Old Lady Hua murmured.
The Holy Yin Water is the holy object coveted by everyone in the Hua family, or in other words, everyone who practices Yin-Cold Kung Fu.
It is no exaggeration to say that an ordinary person with no qualifications for cultivation can become a cultivation genius once he takes the Holy Water of Zhiyin.
However, the Holy Yin Water is too scarce, and no one knows how it is formed or how to obtain it.
The ancestors of the Hua family once obtained such a drop, so there are related records.
At that time, the Hua family was undoubtedly the first family of the Taiping Dao.
It can be said that the entire Taiping Dao is dominated by the Hua family.
Even the Taoist master is from the Hua family.
If Hua Nongyue took this drop of Holy Yin Water and then combined with Xu Chong...
Thinking of this, Old Lady Hua was not happy but frightened, and waves of chills surged into her heart.
It turns out that this is King Qian’s real plan!
What disagreement, what two women serving one man, are all pretenses!
Prince Qian never thought of obstructing this marriage!
He even wants to use this marriage to plan for the entire Hua family!
Because the Holy Yin Water is not so easy to digest!
Once Hua Nong Yue takes the Holy Water of Yin, she will be completely frozen for more than three years!
Three years...
A bitter taste rose in Old Lady Hua's mouth.
She could sense that she only had five years left to live.
Even if Hua Nong Yue breaks out of the ice after three years and his qualifications are greatly improved, it is impossible for him to grow to the point where he can carry the Hua family within two years.
At that time, as long as I die, the Hua family will only have two choices.
1. Become a training tool for other families.
Second, surrender to the imperial court, or to King Qian...
"Don't forget, this is a betrothal gift."
King Qian reminded again meaningfully.
Old Lady Hua remained silent.
She understood what King Qian meant.
This drop of holy Yin water can only be used for Xu Chong's wife.
If she dared to give the Holy Yin Water to Sun Yourong and let Hua Nongyue and Xu Chong get married normally according to the original plan, then no matter how justified the reason was, it would tear up the tacit agreement.
At that time, King Qian will definitely send troops to take down the Hua family.
"Of course, you can also keep it and not give it to anyone else."
King Qian shrugged and spoke again.
"King Qian has figured out everything, why do you still tease me?"
Old Lady Hua smiled sadly.
How can we leave such a treasure unused?
This is the only thing that can help the Hua family restore the glory of their ancestors!
What's more, she was sure that if she really didn't use it, King Qian would definitely spread the news that the Hua family had the Holy Yin Water.
Apart from anything else, the current Taoist master definitely does not want to see another figure like his ancestor emerge from the Hua family.
By then...
"I will not keep you two."
Old Lady Hua no longer had any interest in saying anything more and floated down from the clouds.
Dou Tianyuan, who had been watching from the sidelines, spoke only after he could no longer see the figure: "I just thought you had changed your personality, but I didn't expect..."
To be honest, Dou Tianyuan had no choice but to ask King Qian for help.
Only the royal family can practice the Zhengyang Jin technique, and among the royal family, only Prince Qian recognizes Xu Chong.
However, the position of clan leader has always been the one that hates the Taiping Dao the most.
Dou Tianyuan originally thought that after rescuing Xu Chong, Prince Qian would immediately take him back to Beijing and mobilize people to take down the Hua family.
But I didn't expect that King Qian's methods were far more terrifying than this.
This is to take down the Hua family without bloodshed!
"It's strange to see something new."
Prince Qian looked relaxed and nonchalant, "Managing the royal family is much more difficult than managing the world. It's just a Hua family, it's easy to capture."
"What are you going to do?"
Dou Tianyuan asked, "Once the old witch dies, will you recruit the Hua family?"
"Recruitment?"
Prince Qian shook his head in disdain, "If you want to recruit us, you can do it now. Why wait so long?"
"So what do you mean..."
Dou Tianyuan was puzzled.
"I just want to train my wife, the descendant of my great ancestor, to become the leader of the Taiping Dao."
Prince Qian slowly raised the corners of his mouth.
Cultivate to become a Taoist master? !
Dou Tianyuan was shocked.
The guy named Hua Nong Yue, with the help of the Holy Water of Zhiyin, is very likely to break through to the highest realm of the ninth level of Dharma in the future!
It is really possible to become the leader of the Taiping Dao.
The leader of the Taiping Dao is the wife of the descendant of Taizu. This...
etc!
Dou Tianyuan suddenly remembered something and asked, "If we don't recruit them, can the Hua family survive until that girl grows up?"
"Whether you can hold on depends on Xu Chong."
Prince Qian said calmly, "You want to get a Taiping Dao for free without doing anything? There is no such good thing in the world... I'm not his father."
“…”
Dou Tianyuan was speechless for a while.
"Okay, there's no need to worry about Xu Chong anymore."
King Qian waved his hand and said, "We should go back."
“…”
Dou Tianyuan stared at King Qian for a long while, then stroked his chin and said, "I always feel like you have some deeper conspiracy."
"have."
King Qian nodded, then smiled, "Are you sure you want to know?"
"Then you'd better stop talking. It's sure to be bad for me."
Dou Tianyuan immediately became alert and reached out to push the door as he spoke.
The two of them took steps one after another and returned to the capital.
This time, Dou Tianyuan did not do anything bad, and even opened the door directly to the clan residence.
As soon as Prince Qian came out, he went to his study.
And Dou Tianyuan also disappeared.
"call……"
King Qian slowly exhaled a breath of foul air, then quickly walked towards the wall on one side and walked through it as if it was nothing.
When he reappeared, he had arrived in a strange space.
A blank.
There is no sky, no earth, no mountains, no rivers.
There were only six huge spheres hovering in the air, emitting six different colors of light: gray, white, green, purple, silver, and gold.
The golden sphere stood proudly on top, with the other five hovering horizontally below.
"Dou Tianyuan is at the ninth level of the Golden Body, and I am at the seventh level of the Dharmakaya. I cannot modify his memory. Moreover, those people from the Taiping Dao do not have household registration, so I cannot modify their memory either..."
King Qian pondered for a moment, then flashed to the purple sphere, "Then we can only cover up for Xu Chong and change the perception of these people."
"I don't know if that kid can react."
"Never mind, it's good enough to have achieved this."
"Having the blood of the great ancestor, but being able to cultivate the Dao in the Purple Palace..."
"The descendant of the great ancestor?"
"It's better if Taizu is still alive!"
King Qian was shocked and reached out to touch the ball.
