C818 I'm Not Convinced
Ji Chang shook his head, "Let's not talk about this for now. I have a request for mother."0
Highest-Ranking Imperial Concubine Ji said, "What's the matter?"
Then he heard Ji Chang say, "Your son told you about the alliance with the Huns. Your son planned to go into closed-door training with Ninth Brother, but he didn't expect it to be over so soon. The Huns' messengers are here, we can't delay any longer."
Highest-Ranking Imperial Concubine Ji said seriously: "This matter is related to whether or not you can become the Cabinet. We need to be careful immediately, what is there that we can help with?
Ji Chang said: "In two days, at the same time, Grand Assembly will be transferred to mother's palace, and mother will be the one to decide the marriage. Then, Wang Zhaojun will be sent away as quickly as possible, and another palace maid will be gifted to you, I presume royal father will not care."
This was the plan that he and his trusted aides had come up with. There were three levels of insurance.
The first insurance kept Shen Muqing in the dark; the second insurance kept even the mother from knowing about it when the assembly was in session; and the third insurance kept the core location in the harem of Highest-Ranking Imperial Concubine Ji's palace. Not even the mother would dare trespass.
Highest-Ranking Imperial Concubine Ji said, "The Huns are also a member of the Barbarian. I don't dare to imagine that after we form an alliance, the Huns will be beneficial to you. We will do as you say, and even if we are punished by the Human Emperor, we will be fine."
Ji Chang said emotionally, "Thank you for understanding."
"Alright, it's not early yet. I should go back now. Right now, the empress's attention is focused on Shen Muqing's mansion. If I drag things out any longer, she might get suspicious."
With that, he took a step forward and disappeared into the void. This was the Void Magic of the Ji Clan. It left no trace behind and directly split open the void.
Inside the Imperial City's Prince of Qin's Mansion, Ying Zheng sat on the study desk and stared at the void, observing the images within Shen Muqing's mansion, especially the golden paper that appeared in the River of Destiny. Even with his knowledge from such a long distance, he could still feel the slight pressure that was pressing on it.
After a long time, Ying Zheng retracted his gaze and said softly, "Mother is right, there is definitely a terrifying existence behind Ninth Brother. This piece of paper should be a gift from his ancestors, and it should be able to help him practice the Ancient Code of Cultivation. What a big gift, and it would be an ancient treasure. Who exactly is this person?"
But soon, Ying Zheng revealed a nonchalant smile. No matter how strong his mother's bloodline was, how could she compare to Emperor of the Desolate Heaven , who had opened the Ancient Desolation Heavenly Court?
During the Ancient Desolation, Emperor of the Desolate Heaven supported the human Clan by himself, allowing it to stand above all other races. As Emperor of the Desolate Heaven 's successor, he had the pride of his bloodline.
The Golden Book Family's elixir of life? Letting him cultivate the Ancient Code of Cultivation, you are f * cking willing to give it away, ah. "The Human Emperor looked at the golden paper in the center with a displeased expression." He is very unhappy, we are both Shen Muqing's elders, yet you suddenly gave out such a precious gift, what should I do as his father?
Not giving anything in return would be too face-smacking. Other emperors did not want face, so the Human Emperor was not convinced with Shen Muqing's ancestors' gift, the golden paper.
The other emperors also needed face. Even he had reached this level and needed face in front of the Human Emperor. It seemed like Shen Muqing had provoked him with the golden paper in the River of Destiny. What should he do?
