This is your world

The night is getting late.

Deep in the palace, in the health palace, there is a peaceful atmosphere.

Sandalwood surrounds and fills the hall, like a fairyland.

Emperor Zhao sat cross-legged on the futon in the center of the hall, closed his eyes tightly, and stood with his hands on his knees. He looked pious, as if he was performing some mysterious ritual.

Not far in front of him, the three Taoist priests sitting there also closed their eyes tightly. Their immortal and Taoist temperaments seemed particularly earthly, and they really looked like living immortals.

These three people were outsiders who were invited by Emperor Zhao from a fairy cave in a remote mountain after searching all over the world.

These three Taoist priests have powerful spells and are very specialized in the practice of immortality. In terms of alchemy, the elixirs refined by these three Taoist priests also have miraculous effects.

Over the years, Emperor Zhao has been living on elixirs. This elixir relieves his hidden illnesses and helps him practice immortality.

Immortality?

This is a very ridiculous thing.

Everyone in the world wants to live forever, especially those who have reached a certain status and have no longer pursued external things. For these people, they are afraid of death.

They will do anything to extend their lives!

Especially since ancient times, countless emperors have been pursuing the illusory immortality.

Is there really immortality in this world?

Emperor Zhao doesn't know!

There are too many rumors, and no one knows whether they are true or false. There are rumors that every once in a while, there will be a group of immortals in this world who will become immortals and enter the fairyland to live forever.

But in fact, no one has seen it.

For Emperor Zhao, he did not believe that he would live forever.

If you want to live forever, you must become an immortal. If he wants to become an immortal, he must give up everything he has now.

If so, what's the point of becoming an immortal?

He doesn't believe in immortality, but he wants to live!

This is also a problem that he has been trying to study for many years.

…

Time passed slowly, and the entire hall fell into silence.

The Imperial Guards guarding the door were still in full formation. Even in such a silent night, they did not dare to relax.

The entire palace seemed to have fallen into an eerie silence.

Not far from the Health Palace, two eunuchs were leaning against the wall and yawning.

"Father-in-law, it's almost time tonight. When should we go back to rest?"

"Rest? Your Majesty is still in the Health Palace, how can we practice?"

"But……"

The younger eunuch couldn't help but yawned again, with a tired look on his face: "But I'm really sleepy!"

"Hold it, His Majesty hasn't rested yet. If you dare to rest now, do you believe that His Majesty will take your head?"

As soon as these words came out, the younger eunuch suddenly became excited and was no longer sleepy!

The thing about losing your head,

Don't be careless.

After the little eunuch woke up, he felt a little bored again. He looked up outside the eaves and saw that it was still raining heavily. I don’t know when this rain will stop, but it looks like it won’t stop in the next few days.

"Father-in-law, can I ask you something?"

"What's the matter?"

"It's about the eldest princess..."

As soon as the words left the little eunuch's mouth, they were covered by the old eunuch.

"Shut up!"

The old eunuch had a look of horror on his face, and he stopped the young eunuch with a harsh scolding.

At the same time, he looked around with vigilant eyes, and after making sure that no one was nearby, he relaxed slightly, then turned back, glanced at him, and reprimanded seriously: "You want to lose your head?!"

The little eunuch then realized that he might have said the wrong thing and quickly covered his mouth: "I was wrong..."

The old eunuch looked around again in surprise, then walked to a corner.

After I was sure that no one would find out, I was relieved.

Then he looked at him fiercely: "In the future, you are not allowed to mention this kind of thing in the palace, do you understand?"

"oh!"

The little eunuch nodded in understanding: "But..."

"There are no buts. If you want to survive in the palace, you must keep some things in your heart and never say them out."

The little eunuch nodded and whispered: "But, didn't I just tell you, my father-in-law? I would never tell anyone else..."

"Even if it's me, you have to be careful!"

The old eunuch said seriously: "Be careful, the walls have ears!"

"oh!"

At this time, a bit of sadness appeared on the old eunuch's face.

He has been in the palace for many years, and he can vaguely have a premonition of something.

There seems to be some instability in the palace recently. I don't know what is going on, but it always gives him an aura that something is wrong.

It feels like something big is going to happen!

Thinking of what happened recently, the worry on the old eunuch's face became more and more obvious.

The eldest princess was assassinated, and the news had already spread in the palace. They, the eunuchs around His Majesty, naturally heard some rumors in the palace.

When the eldest princess was assassinated, His Majesty was furious and put His Royal Highness under house arrest in the palace.

What does this mean?

The person who assassinated the eldest princess was His Highness the Crown Prince? !

This news is both surprising and reasonable.

What was unexpected was that His Highness the Crown Prince would kill his own imperial sister. What was reasonable was that everyone knew about the conflict between the eldest princess and His Highness the Crown Prince.

Therefore, nothing seems surprising.

But the old eunuch was worried about more than that. Recently, he also noticed that the imperial guards in the palace seemed to have undergone some changes.

Some of the familiar faces were gone, and there were more new ones.

Although the normal change of guard was normal, at this moment, it gave the old eunuch an uneasy feeling.

"Walk!"

The old eunuch walked outside.

The little eunuch followed behind and asked strangely: "Where are we going?"

"Go back and guard. If His Majesty comes back and you and I are not at our posts, and His Majesty is angry, both of us will suffer!"

The two of them braved the rain again and returned to the palace gate. Just as they were slapping the rain off their bodies, they planned to rest for a while.

Two cold swords were pressed against their necks.

Immediately, several figures appeared behind them and controlled the two of them.

"You, who are you?"

The old eunuch's eyes suddenly shrank, with a look of horror on his face.

Are there assassins? !

This was a thought that came to his mind.

An assassin broke into the palace late at night. What were the imperial troops doing and eating?

"Don't make a sound, otherwise, you will die!"

Behind him was a cold and murderous voice.

At this moment, the old eunuch's years of experience told him that something was wrong.

However, after being held hostage at this moment, he did not dare to move.

"You guys, do you know where this place is?!"

"What do you think?"

The cold reply made the old eunuch's heart sink.

The other party knew where this place was and was so confident. It was obvious that he was well prepared.

What are they... going to do?

Just when the old eunuch was stunned, several more figures appeared in his sight.

More than a dozen black-clothed figures silently leapt away from his sight, followed immediately by several heavily armed figures.

When he saw these people, the old eunuch's pupils suddenly shrank.

these people……

It's the forbidden army in the palace! !

But, but why are they here?

Also, why did they turn a blind eye to these men in black who broke into the palace.

What's going on?

Just as the old eunuch was horrified and shocked, another figure appeared in his sight.

When he saw that figure, the old eunuch's face suddenly became panicked.

Unbelievable.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness?!!"

Zhao Jing's figure slowly appeared in the old eunuch's sight.

He walked in step by step and came to the front of the two eunuchs.

"General Manager Xu!"

Zhao Jing looked at the old eunuch and said calmly: "You're fine!"

"Your Highness, you, what are you..."

From the moment he saw Zhao Jing, the old eunuch felt that something was wrong.

Isn’t His Highness under house arrest by His Majesty? Why are you here at this time?

And these forbidden troops, these men in black...

In an instant, a shocking thought appeared in his mind.

Could it be that His Highness is thinking? ! ! !

"Father, is he in the Health Palace?"

Zhao Jing looked at the old eunuch in front of him and spoke calmly.

This old eunuch has been with Emperor Zhao for many years. He knows everything about Emperor Zhao's daily life and living habits.

However, at this moment the old eunuch figured this out and looked frightened: "Your Highness, you, do you know what you are doing?"

"Do you know the consequences?"

"I don't need to worry about the consequences, but Mr. Xu will worry about it more!"

Zhao Jing squinted his eyes slightly and glanced at him coldly: "What Manager Xu should be worried about now is his own life!"

The old eunuch trembled slightly. He understood His Highness the Crown Prince's ambition and his purpose.

"Crazy, you're crazy!"

"Drag it down!"

Knowing that the old eunuch could not get any useful information from his mouth, Zhao Jing waved his hand and looked back at the other young eunuch next to him.

At this time, the little eunuch was frightened!

He looked at the scene in front of him blankly, feeling a little at a loss.

Your Highness, Your Highness, what is he going to do?

"what's your name?"

Zhao Jing looked at him.

"Go back to your highness, my name is Liu Shun..."

Zhao Jing nodded slightly and glanced at him again: "Where is your Majesty now?"

There was a trace of hesitation on the little eunuch's face.

"Um?"

Zhao Jing gave him a cold look, and this look made the little eunuch tremble all over.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, he is practicing with several Taoist priests in the Health Palace!"

"Practice!"

Zhao Jing narrowed his eyes slightly: "How many forbidden troops are there over there?"

"this……"

At this moment, no matter how stupid the little eunuch was, he finally realized something.

mutiny!

Your Highness, is he going to...rebel?

At this moment, the little eunuch suddenly trembled all over. This news almost made him unsteady.

What a blast!

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I, I..."

The little eunuch stammered and was speechless for a moment.

Zhao Jing was no longer patient. He waved his hand and the people next to him dragged the little eunuch directly. The little eunuch was frightened and wanted to shout, but someone covered his mouth and nose.

After a while, there was no more sound.

At this time, another black shadow appeared in front of Zhao Jing and said: "Your Highness, the person outside the Health Palace is probably the personal soldier beside Your Majesty. Its strength cannot be underestimated. If we attack by force, there may be an accident!"

"If we delay for too long, when reinforcements arrive, something big may happen!"

"I know!"

Zhao Jing narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly: "Go ahead as planned!"

"I have my own way!"

…

Late at night.

The rain is still falling.

Outside the Health Preservation Hall, there was silence.

Dozens of forbidden troops guarded the outside of the palace, wrapping the palace tightly.

In the silent night, it seemed particularly forbidding.

These forbidden troops are all the top elites in the palace, and they are also the personal soldiers around Emperor Zhao.

Back then, since Li Wushuang broke into the palace, he almost threatened Emperor Zhao's life. After that, Emperor Zhao secretly trained countless masters and built the deep palace with copper walls and iron walls today.

However, he probably never imagined that the iron wall he thought he had would one day gradually collapse from within.

The heavy rain was still falling, and the rainwater hit the bluestone floor with a loud pattering sound.

On the occasion of the heavy rain, several figures suddenly launched a surprise attack from all around the Health Palace.

In the night, murderous intent suddenly appeared.

Countless black shadows approached outside the health palace, murderous intent struck.

"The enemy is attacking, there are assassins!!!"

Almost at the moment when the man in black approached, the imperial guards near the palace noticed someone approaching.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Suddenly, the sound of countless swords being unsheathed was heard.

These forbidden troops are well-trained and are all the elites among the elites. They did not panic in the face of the sudden sneak attack and began to respond to the enemy in an organized and disciplined manner.

In an instant, when the swords collided, the two groups started fighting.

In an instant, the originally silent night was broken.

The swords collided, and screams continued. What was originally late at night instantly became a killing ground.

Countless shadow people are heading towards the Health Palace, with extremely murderous intent.

At the same time, the Imperial Guards at the door were equally well prepared.

"There are assassins protecting His Majesty!!"
