Chapter 264: The Second Prince's Conspiracy!
Cangxing Martial Academy!”Li Xuan Yin let out a disdainful laugh and said, "He's not worthy!"Although Yun Hao just cut off Liu Ling's arm, he did it with the help of an array formation.And this forma...If we talk about the richest place in the Qing Dynasty's collection, it is undoubtedly the imperial treasury.
As the biggest beneficiary of the entire imperial dynasty, the royal family possesses resources that far surpass those held by forces like Qingfeng Martial Academy, Cangxing Martial Academy, and Baodan Pavilion. Both in quantity and rarity, their resources leave all other forces in the dust!
Chu Xin Yue didn't care at all about her status as a princess. She was straightforward and genuine, brave in love and hate, she directly grabbed Yun Hao's hand and, under the dumbfounded gazes of the palace maids and eunuchs, headed towards the royal treasury.
The royal treasury, resplendent and magnificent. Even from the outside, it radiates with jewels and glitters, exuding an aura of mystery.
The treasury was guarded by a large number of Imperial Guards, and the treasury itself was protected by an extremely powerful formation.
Chu Xin Yue stood beside Yun Hao, blinking and whispered, "Wood, don't be foolish and say you'll take three things just take three things. Take more, don't be afraid, I said so!"
Yun Hao:：“……”
Chu Xin Yue's smile was very innocent, her two dimples radiating the youthful and charming loveliness. Her dark and bright eyes
Twinkling with a cunning light.
She dragged Yun Hao toward the treasure vault entrance and walked briskly forward.
"Princess, please wait."
Suddenly, a figure of an old man appeared like a ghost, blocking the two people's path.
Yun Hao looked at the old man. His aura was faint, as if present and yet absent. Even though it was midday, the old man stood in the sunlight and still gave off a feeling like a ghost in the night.
This is a master of unity!
"I brought Yunhao into the treasure vault to collect his reward. This was what Father promised, so get out of the way!" Chu Xinyue said with a stern face and a serious tone.
The old man’s face was expressionless as he said, “Your Majesty's orders, this servant has received, but Your Majesty only said to let Yun Hao go in, not the little princess.”
Chu Xin Yue: "This is the royal treasury, it's mine,"
I'm entering my own family treasure vault, it's only natural. My father emperor didn't say no, doesn't mean he forbids me from entering. Let me pass!
But the old man was stubbornly rooted to the spot like a wooden stake.
Just then.
A palace maid rushed over.
"Princess"
The Empress summons you.
The current Empress is not actually Chu Xin Yue's biological mother. Ten years ago, the Empress died for unknown reasons. The current Empress was installed later.
Whatever people may say, since the Empress has summoned her, Chu Xin Yue cannot refuse. Not going would be a grave disrespect. In such a royal environment, it's very easy for this to become a handle that others can use against her, leading to all sorts of trouble.
"Go." Yun Hao said.
Chu Xin Yue hummed in response, saying: "When you come out from the treasure trove, remember to wait for me. I still have a lot of things I want to tell you."
Yun Hao nodded.
Chu Xin Yue took three steps back, reluctantly parting.
The old man guarding the treasure vault's entrance stepped aside.
Yun Hao walked forward.
"Boom!"
The formation of the treasure vault triggered, a layer of ripples shimmered as a light curtain appeared. Yun Hao's expression remained unchanged, his figure passing through the light curtain and entering the royal treasury.
………
"Second Prince, His Majesty summoned Yun Hao for a private conversation. As for what they discussed in detail, no one knows. After the conversation, His Majesty sent the young princess to take Yun Hao to the treasury."
A eunuch stood before the second prince, reporting.
This is the second prince of the Qingfeng Dynasty. He has a burly frame, sword-like eyebrows, and exudes an awe-inspiring aura.
The present Queen is his own mother!
And the previous generation's Heavenly Master was his grandfather!
The second prince, Wen Tao, was brilliant in both literature and military strategy. He possessed extraordinary talent and had even served on the battlefield. Leading an army of 30,000, he turned decay into magic, repelling the invading iron cavalry of a hundred thousand enemies. It can be said that he wielded his troops like a god.
Whether in the imperial court or among the common people, this second prince's reputation far surpassed that of the current crown prince.
The Second Prince's eyes flickered as he said, "Father wanted to bring Han Qian Shan into the palace back then, but Han Qian Shan refused. Father didn't care too much at the time, but when Han Qian Shan's martial arts grew stronger and stronger, Father regretted not offering enough benefits to persuade him."
Now, Yun Hao is renowned for possessing the talent to surpass Han Qian Shan. The Emperor must have offered him substantial rewards to entice him.
But Yun Hao ultimately went to the Treasure Vault. It was obvious that he had refused his father emperor, so the emperor let him choose some things from the Treasure Vault as a reward for his accomplishments in Beihang County.
Based on mere snippets from eunuch reports, this second prince analyzed the situation with remarkable insight. He smiled and looked at the eunuch before him, saying, "Thank you for your hard work, go claim your reward."
"Thank you, Second Prince."
The eunuch happily withdrew to collect his reward money.
"Ye Qi, come in!" the second prince shouted.
Suddenly, a tall man with twin swords on his waist appeared before the second prince.
"Your Highness!"
Ye Qi bent down and bowed.
"Go and tell Huang Yu's faction the news that Yun Hao has entered the treasure vault," the second prince ordered.
"Your Highness, Huang Yu lost face in Beichang County because of Yun Hao and bears a deep grudge. If Huang Yu knew Yun Hao's whereabouts, he might cause trouble...
"
Could it be that Your Highness is using Huang Yu to target Yun Hao, and at the crucial moment, Your Highness will lend a hand to Yun Hao"
The man named Ye Qi, apparently the Second Prince's confidante, was surprisingly bold.
The Second Prince sneered coldly, "Although Yun Hao has immense potential, this man is useless to me. As for the reason, you needn't know."
You've been by my side for many years, you should know what to say and what not to say. This time, you spoke out of turn. I won't hold it against you, but don't let it happen again.
Although his tone was flat.
Ke Ye Qi was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
The Second Prince never showed his emotions on his face. Ye Qi had been by his side for many years and could tell the Second Prince's thoughts from subtle cues.
Just now.
The second prince clearly showed murderous intent.
!
"Your Highness, I know my mistake. I will never again dare to guess your thoughts!"
"
"
The second prince waved his hand and said, "Go do your business."
………
The arrangement in the royal treasury is quite humane. Various items are recorded in catalogs according to their functions.
There is no need to spend time identifying each item individually. Each category of items has a specific storage location and detailed effects listed in the catalog.
Martial arts techniques, Yun Hao didn't need them, so he skipped over them.
Ready-made pills are also ignored directly.
Weapons of that sort were not within his purview.
His goal was very clear: either items that could assist in refining the spiritual body, or natural treasures of heaven and earth!
Soon, Yun Hao chose a piece of Chikun Stone. This thing contained abundant earth attribute energy and belonged to innate spiritual materials. It could be used to refine the spleen and earth heaven. The energy of the Yin Xuan Pearl alone was not enough to fully refine the spleen and earth heaven. With the addition of the Chikun Stone, it should be almost enough.
Besides that, I also chose a piece of gold. It's three times larger than the one used to repair the Xuxin Sword before. Once the spleen and earth refinement is complete, the next step will be refining the lung and earth, which will allow me to absorb the metallic substance within the gold!
As for the last item, Yun Hao had not found what he wanted. Just as he was about to settle for something else, his eyes caught sight of a book lying in the corner, covered with a thick layer of dust...ed to go and have a match tomorrow.Although it's possible to win.But the Qingfeng Dynasty would pay a heavy price for canceling the engagement, a price so high it would shake the dynasty's foundation...
