Chapter 517: Palace secret

Han Yun drank a large sip of water. Although he said he hadn't heard much useful news, there were many things worth mentioning, all of which were related to the top ten sects.
"Emperor Chu is critically ill, and the imperial physician in the palace is helpless. The conclusion is that Emperor Chu has been overworked over the years, and his whole body has been suffering from dark diseases.
"The lifeline is damaged, and there is no cure. You can only replenish it day and night with a tonic. There is no other way."
"The outside world is circulating. The news in the palace says that Emperor Chu's complexion is extremely bad and his breath is weak. The remaining lifespan may only last for one or two years."
Gu Zhong: "..." It seems to be a palace drama.
"Since Emperor Chu’s lifeline was damaged and he was bedridden, the royal family was filled with smoke. Crown Prince Chu Linchen began to beat Chu to pass the throne to him as soon as possible, while Empress Yi wanted her son to be the second prince. Chu Yicheng ascended to the throne, and at first it was just a secret fight between the two."
"But with the escalation of the struggle, it turned to the well-known Mingdou in the capital. The prince has the strength to support him for many years, and the mother of Queen Yi cannot be underestimated. Both sides have always been evenly matched, and no one can completely suppress. Who passed."
"Originally, this kind of throne dispute was normal in the royal family. Almost every new emperor will have such a prologue before he succeeds. The emperor has always let it go."
"It's just these years that the prince has actually begun to win over the top ten sect forces, among them..."
Having said this, Han Yun paused, glanced at Gu Zhong and continued: "Among them, the Cangshan School and the Neon Palace have already surrendered to the Prince."
"Since the Cangshan faction took office as the head of the White Master, the Cangshan faction has been suppressed by the Luoyun Sect, and the Luoyun Sect has always supported the existence of the Chu Dynasty. The combination of imperial power and influence has made Da Chu have no borders in these years. Because of this, Luoyun Sect has also obtained the special status of the only four-liu sect in the entire Da Chu."
"Tsk tusk tusk, all the emperor is taking the princes to make the princes, and they are mixed up."
The ancient bell about how the four-stream sect came from is probably understood in the book. It is written that the Falling Cloud Sect stabilized the status of the great Chu imperial family and provided the convenience of trade in the Hongsheng Empire, so Hongsheng’s father gave it to Lost Cloud Sect's reputation as a four-liu sect.
To put it bluntly, this fourth-rate name came from licking, but whoever said that the dog licking fell into nothing at the end is different from the Luoyun Sect of others, and it has everything in the end.
Having enjoyed ten years of transcendent status in Da Chu, it is not an exaggeration to say that he controls the world.
The Cangshan faction surrendered to the prince, it is estimated that they were forced to go nowhere.
"The Cangshan faction wants to help the prince seize the seat?"
Han Yun nodded: "It seems that this is the case."
"It's just that Empress Yi is not a vegetarian. Under her various methods, Heavenly Secret Mansion and Great Sword Sect have also been put under her command."
"However, Emperor Chu was furious after knowing these things, but it was too late, because at that time, whether it was Prince Chu Linchen or Empress Yi, their power had spread all over Beijing.
"If it weren't for the Falling Cloud Sect who was still holding it, I'm afraid the old emperor would have been killed by them long ago."
"Hall Master, didn't you say that there is no useful news? I think you know, it's not a lot at all."
It was the first time that Gu Zhong knew these secrets of the capital, and for a while, he had a sense of unreality like reading a novel.
"Ham, these things are already known to everyone in Upper Kyoto, I will know when I just inquire..."
"But there is another interesting thing, I think you should be interested in the head."
"what?"
"It's about Mu Yuefeng's identity."
"Mu Yuefeng? Isn't she the young master of the Qing Dao faction?"
"No, no, Mu Yuefeng has another identity, Chu Di's niece."
"The daughter of the former princess, Princess Yuefeng."
"what??"
"It's just that the former eldest princess and the consort left early. Mu Yuefeng has been raised by Emperor Chu since he was a child, and Emperor Chu has only two sons in his life, so he has always raised her as a daughter.
"It's not an exaggeration to say it's a princess."
"Er..." Gu Zhong did not expect that Mu Yuefeng still had such a heavy identity.
The princess, the princess, seems very awesome. No wonder it's so crazy.
"So in the early years, Emperor Chu sent Mu Yuefeng to the Qing Dao Sect to practice, so that one day, Princess Yue Feng could become the head of the Qing Dao Sect and protect Da Chu.
The Qing Dao faction also liked this little princess very much, and used her as an heir to train her.
"In these years, Emperor Chu has been lying in the palace all the year round, and it has been almost forgotten. Only Princess Yuefeng is the only one who is really attached to him and accompanying him. If it weren't for Princess Yuefeng to be a daughter, he has a clean way. Send support behind her."
"I am afraid that the prince will be persecuted long ago."
After hearing so much, Gu Zhong probably understood it, meaning that the situation in Beijing is now in chaos, and the relationship between the ten major sects is also a mess.
Originally, Gu Zhong didn't want to participate in these messy power struggles, but unfortunately, the ten major sect round election was only three days later, in order to complete the task, he had to participate.
"This time the conditions for participating in the round of elections have been relaxed. I heard that it was the Prince's attention."
"I'm afraid this round of elections will not be that simple."
Han Yun secretly looked at Gu Zhong's eyes, but Gu Zhong remained unmoved, as if he was determined to participate.
"Do you know who the man in the warehouse is?"
"Huh? Who?"
The head suddenly asked a question unrelated to the topic, Han Yun was a little dazed, and replied subconsciously.
"Second prince, Chu Yicheng."
Han Yun: "..."
The jade pendant with the word "Yi" engraved on it is enough to prove his identity. Reminiscent of the man in black who chased him that day, holding a spirit tube, he was not the prince. Is it someone sent?
Han Yungang also wanted to say that going to Beijing is too chaotic. Let's develop it in the Black Mountain City. The head of the school destroyed his idea with a word.
One of the protagonists of the royal conspiracy he talked about before-the second prince... was locked in their warehouse for two days and two nights...
You said it was a coincidence...
...
"Head, someone from Shangjing sent two posts."
Han Yun and Gu Zhong looked at each other, both of them smiled helplessly; they came in time.
Gu Zhong took the two invitation letters and quickly read them.
The wording of the two invitation letters was very polite and sincere. First, he praised Gu Zhong for a while, praising him as the only disciple under the seat of the White Sect to inherit the mantle of the White Sect, and cultivate a group of outstanding disciples for the Cangshan School.
After hearing that he and his disciples had achieved the results in the Cangshan School disciple competition, I was impressed and eager to see his style.
