“He knows how to adapt, and knows how to advance and retreat.”
“This little virtuous man is a person worth cultivating.”
Princess Qionghua couldn’t help but nodded with satisfaction after looking at Jiang Yuan’s three choices.
"Wuxian Fist" and "Nine-Star Reflecting Moon Sword" are more suitable for Yaoguang's practice.
Although the "Nine-Star Reflecting Moon Sword" is not that suitable for Jiang Yuan, the top-level boxing technique of "Wuxian Fist" is enough for him.
Furthermore, he also chose the "Eight Heavenly Dragon Breathing Techniques", the top one in the Imperial Court's arsenal, for himself to use. He did not suffer a loss, but he really considered Yao Guang when choosing martial arts.
In the following days, Jiang Yuan's life continued as before, spending two hours every afternoon teaching Princess Yaoguang "Wuxian Fist" and "Nine-Star Reflecting Moon Sword", and instructing Princess Yaoguang to practice "Innate Guidance Technique".
Princess Qionghua does not often come to the Martial Arts Palace. She also often goes in and out of the imperial court. It is said that she is helping His Royal Highness to win over all parties.
Prince Yang Wu recognized the Queen as his legitimate mother, and Princess Qionghua was regarded as Yang Wu's half-sister.
Whether it is from a ritual or emotional point of view, Princess Qionghua should lend a helping hand to Prince Yang Wu.
This is also in line with the core interests of the queen and the eldest princess.
Autumn of the twelfth year of Jinglong.
The fight for the rightful son by the nine kings became more and more intense, and Emperor Jinglong's health was getting worse day by day. Prince Yang Wu gradually stabilized the situation with the help of the eldest princess.
All forces within the imperial court were fighting each other. Eunuchs and maids were killed with sticks almost every day, and people in the imperial court were panicked.
Only Jiang Yuan is in the Yaoguang Palace, teaching Princess Yaoguang martial arts practice quietly, sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, watching the storm.
Today's Princess Yaoguang is completely able to practice independently. She has already completed the "Innate Guidance Technique", and has also started to learn "Wuxian Fist" and "Nine-Star Reflecting Moon Sword".
Now Jiang Yuan spends most of his time practicing martial arts. He only goes to the Martial Arts Palace every now and then to give instructions to Princess Yaoguang, or to discuss with her and answer her doubts about her practice.
As for Her Royal Highness the Princess, she has become increasingly busy. Jiang Yuan has not seen her for more than half a month.
The winter of the twelfth year of Jinglong.
Emperor Jinglong, who had not been in court for a long time, suddenly began to go to court, and then began to use thunderous means to rectify the forces behind the prince who wanted to seize the throne.
Jin Wang Yang Yi's grandfather was beheaded and his house ransacked, his mother-in-law was given a glass of poisoned wine, and he was demoted to a commoner by Emperor Jinglong and exiled to Yunzhou, but died suddenly on the way.
The uncle of King Qin Yang He was removed from his post and investigated, his mother and concubine were thrown into the cold palace, and he was forced to surrender. From then on, he was not allowed to enter the imperial capital without an edict.
Yang Heng, the king of Chu, was reprimanded by Emperor Jinglong for being without a king or a father, with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and no appearance of a king. He began to be in panic all day long, and was actually scared to death in his palace.
Yan Wang Yang Zhen's three uncles were demoted, removed from their posts, and had their homes confiscated one after another for various reasons. Yang Zhen immediately petitioned for his resignation. Emperor Jinglong readily agreed and sealed Yang Zhen in Yanbei County, a subordinate county of Yanyun County.
At the end of winter in the twelfth year of Jinglong.
King of Zhao Yang Mu, King of Chen Yang Lu, and King of Shu Yang Ke were executed by Emperor Jinglong on the grounds that they colluded with courtiers and intended to rebel. All the relatives behind them were uprooted, and their mothers and concubines were first demoted to the cold palace and then sentenced to death.
Historically speaking, "Emperor Jinglong killed three sons in one day"!
Now the only ones qualified to compete for the throne are King Yang Zhen of Qi and Prince Yang Wu!
Jiang Yuan, who was hiding in the deep palace, finally broke through from a third-level warrior to a second-level warrior at the end of the year. After half a year of hard training, Princess Yaoguang was also promoted from a ninth-level warrior to an eighth-level warrior.
It is said that Her Royal Highness the Princess also broke through to the third level warrior not long ago.
Originally, with her qualifications, her breakthrough speed could be faster, but now she is busy with many things and is really too busy, which greatly shortens her training time. However, she still achieved her set goal.
Become a third-level warrior before the age of twenty!
"The King of Qin Yang He, the King of Yan Yang Zhen, the King of Qi Yang Zhen, and the Crown Prince Yang Wu."
"Nine kings have seized the throne, but five of them have died in just half a year. King Qin Yang He and King Yan Yang Zhen have also been eliminated early. They are really lucky to survive."
“I don’t know how many eunuchs and maids who once followed them have died in the past six months, and almost all of their confidants have died. Those marginal eunuchs and maids have also been demoted one after another, and have become eunuchs and maids at the lowest level of the imperial court. . ”
“Xiao Liangzi took refuge in Jin Wang Yang Yi, left Leng Palace and went to Jin Palace. Later Jin Wang Yang Yi was demoted to a commoner, exiled to Yunzhou and died, and he was also liquidated and brutally killed with a stick. "
"Because Xiao Dengzi treated a concubine in the cold palace harshly, as soon as the concubine left the cold palace, she sent someone to break one of his legs. Now he is still in the cold palace."
"Xiao Hanzi took refuge in Zhao Wang Yang Mu. After Zhao Wang Yang Mu was killed, he was also beheaded and buried with Zhao Wang Yang Mu."
"Eighteen eunuchs who were once in the cold palace are now dead, injured, and disabled. I feel sorry for Mr. Li Li Qing."
"He reminded us with good intentions, but in the end he was reported by the villain and his property was confiscated. He was also sentenced to have his tongue cut out, and I don’t know if he is still alive today. "But I saw Xiao Liangzi, Xiao Dengzi, and Xiao Hanzi's faces flashing that day. Maybe the informer was among the three of them. Now they are. He also received retribution and repaid the karma he owed. "
"Emperor Jinglong was definitely a qualified emperor. He knew that his life was not long, so he allowed the princes who wanted to compete for the throne to jump out and fight. "
"He wants to see which princes have ambitions and which forces want to get involved in the change of imperial power. When these princes and the forces behind the princes surface one by one, he will start to swing the butcher knife."
"He is clearing all obstacles for the new emperor to ascend the throne, but he killed five sons in just half a year, but he is so cruel!"
"There is still one King of Qi left, maybe he is hesitating whether to choose the prince or the king of Qi!"
"The King of Qi is eighteen years old, and the prince is sixteen. Even if Emperor Jinglong can survive this winter, I am afraid it will be difficult to survive until the next winter."
"The successor to the throne is too young to be able to suppress the ministers. King Yang Zhen of Qi is two years older than Prince Yang Wu. These two years are really fatal!"
Jiang Yuan felt the turmoil inside and outside the imperial court and thought in his heart.
But all this has nothing to do with him. The innate warriors in the imperial court are aloof. As long as there is no chaos in the imperial court, he will not take action.
As long as he doesn't take action, my strength will only be lower than that of a first-grade warrior. Even if there is a life-and-death fight, it is still unclear who will live and who will die between me and a first-grade warrior!
He now has a certain confidence to deal with this unknown storm.
It's just that he is also worried now, because the eldest princess supports the prince Yang Wu. If King Qi ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor, the eldest princess may be liquidated.
Even though King Yang Zhen of Qi was afraid of the Xiao family, a thousand-year-old martial arts family behind the eldest princess and the empress, and would not kill them, he would not necessarily forgive them, the eunuchs and maids of Qionghua Palace.
Qionghua Palace.
Fenghua Palace.
Prince Yang Wu, dressed in a golden four-clawed python dragon robe, was pacing in the palace. Her Royal Highness the Princess was sitting on the main seat, quietly sipping fragrant tea.
"Sister Huang, what do you mean by your father?"
"Didn't you say that he killed so many people in the past six months to clear the way for me to ascend the throne?"
"But why did he keep King Qi?"
“The King of Qi should have surrendered two years ago, but he refused to let the King of Qi surrender. He not only rewarded the Prince of Qi with a palace, but also gave him the right to open a palace, and also allowed him to live in the Tianwu Palace. That was before his father ascended the throne.居住的寝宫。」
「你说父皇他到底是什么意思？」
「他是要废了我的太子之位，立齐王为太子吗？」
Prince Yang Wu frowned, looked at Princess Qionghua, and spoke anxiously.
