The heavens are kings, starting with Qing Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 143 Arrow Finger
The quiet and depressing atmosphere lasted for a long time, neither Emperor Qing nor Li Chengqian spoke, as if whoever spoke first would lose.

The old god Li Chengqian was there, and in his deep black eyes, there was no trace of tension or fear, only peace.

Emperor Qing couldn't hold back anymore, he felt angry and helpless, but he knew that at this moment he could certainly use his status to suppress others.

But it can't change the fundamentals of the situation.

He already knew that Ye Liuyun swaggered out of the city to the north early in the morning, and Ye Liuyun's status as the guest minister of the Eastern Palace seemed to be known to all.

The two great masters stood behind the crown prince, unless he wanted to fight to the death, otherwise, he would have to make a certain compromise.

Of course, he can also try, at this moment, directly kill the prince here.

A slight killing intent surged up, but quickly dissipated.

He could kill the crown prince, but there would be no chance of peace between Qingguo and that Li Gaoming.

Hong Sixiang died, and so did the envoy of the temple.

Judging from the traces of destruction on Niulan Street, the strength of this young grand master may have exceeded his expectations.

Since Li Gaoming is the prince's man, Hong Sixiang's identity cannot be hidden.

Even if he put all this on Li Yunrui and used Li Yunrui to counteract the anger of a great master, it would be difficult for him to succeed.

If Li Gaoming had a very good relationship with the crown prince, once the crown prince died, Qingguo, or the relationship between him and the young grand master would be endless.

If this person went to Dongyi or Northern Qi, he would never have the possibility of unifying the world in his lifetime.

What's more, he knew Ye Liuyun's character very well.

Being able to handle Ye Liuyun as an undercover under Li Yunrui for many years was not based on friendship.

If he didn't have the force of a great master himself, how could a great master like Ye Liuyun be willing to go undercover for many years and be a minor under Li Yunrui's hands?

Is it really as easy to handle as the great master and strong man who can support Dongyi and Beiqi?

Therefore, since Ye Liuyun dared to rebel openly, joined the East Palace and became a guest minister, he must have seen a stronger strength than him in the East Palace.

From this point of view, the strength of the Eastern Palace is probably far from being as simple as a great master Li Gaoming.

Such a young great master, was it really taught by that idiot Si Gu Jian?

It's not that he doesn't recognize the abilities of the disciples of Sigu Sword Sect, only Dongyi can show dozens of Ninth Grade disciples.

But the gap between the great master and the ninth grade is like clouds and mud.

Even Si Gu Jian's strongest disciple, Yun Zhilan, is still a long way from the grand master.

Even life is difficult to have a chance to break through.

Although the Overwatch Council and the inner court have checked Li Gaoming's origin many times, and it seems that there is no problem, but he just doesn't believe that the great master can cultivate so easily.

At that time, he also had a narrow escape to become a great master.

He still doesn't want to recall the pain of being unable to move up and down, which is no different from paralysis.

Therefore, he is almost [-]% sure that there must be someone behind Li Gaoming.

He also saw Li Chengqian's changes in the past two years.

It would be understandable if Li Chengqian and Li Gaoming were behind the same person.

Being able to train such a young grand master, it seems that it is not difficult to change the temperament of the prince.

He had some doubts now, whether there was someone like Ye Qingmei behind Li Chengqian secretly supporting him.

Thinking of Wuzhu, and the sharp weapon that used to be like the punishment of God, easily took people's lives from thousands of meters away, he felt a chill in his heart for no reason.

At this moment, he unexpectedly felt the taste of fear once again.

The next second, he got up suddenly, picked up the longbow on the table beside him, bent the bow and set an arrow, and pointed it at Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian's gaze flickered, and he raised his head slightly, his face looked extremely calm under the arrow's edge.

He was not ready to fight to the death with Emperor Qing, but if Emperor Qing wanted to do something, he would never show mercy.

The royal family has no family ties, what's more, although his blood comes from Emperor Qing, his soul comes from another world.

Killing a nominal biological relative did not put too much psychological pressure on him.

However, the reason why he didn't plan to take action for so long was that besides not wanting to fight to the death with Emperor Qing, he felt that he was not yet ready to take over the throne.

As an ordinary person in the previous life, within two years, he suddenly rebelled and became the emperor. He was in a hurry and didn't mention it. The emperor might not be able to do a good job.

As his power and strength grew day by day, the throne was getting closer and closer to him, and he also felt an unprecedented burden.

To wear a crown must bear its weight.

Although the emperor is the most noble existence in this world, he can bear far more responsibilities than the so-called great masters.

A country is so big that the political affairs that are dealt with every day can pile up into mountains.

Let's not talk about whether he has the ability to handle these political affairs in an orderly manner.

As far as he knows, there are not a few emperors who died early because of diligent administration in history.

Although he has the body of a great master, he may be able to withstand such consumption.

But it is not his pursuit to be trapped in the deep palace hall to deal with political affairs every day.

He prefers to share the tedious affairs, and only make decisions and influence in the general direction.

But to achieve this, he needs countless capable ministers and officials.

As far as the current situation of Qing Kingdom is concerned, most of the officialdom is already rotten, and the only ones under him who can take action are Guan Zhong and Luo Guanzhong, which is really weak.

Moreover, they all have important responsibilities now.

As the scale of banks and newspapers continues to expand, one of them controls the world's money, and the other controls the world's mouthpiece.

If they were included in the imperial court, let alone whether they could help him revitalize Qing's officialdom, who should he give these two extremely important positions to?

Zhao Yun or Gao Lishi?
So he was more inclined to let Emperor Qing stabilize on the throne first.

When he has a lot of talents under his command and has drawn enough famous officials from history, or in the past few years, when the schools he sponsored in various places develop and can provide him with a steady stream of talents, it will be his chance to rise to the top.

While thinking about it, Emperor Qing loosened his fingers, and with a whoosh, the arrow flew towards Li Chengqian.

Eunuch Hou turned pale with shock, Your Majesty wants to kill the prince himself?impossible!

But Li Chengqian came back to his senses, watched the arrow approaching, his eyes flickered slightly, but he was unmoved.

In the next second, the arrow passed by his ear impartially.

With a ding, it landed on the iron armor a few meters away behind him, and fell powerlessly.

Eunuch Hou heaved a sigh of relief. If the crown prince was shot to death by Emperor Qing, let alone the follow-up result, he, a witness, would surely die.

Emperor Qing threw the longbow in his hand and said with a smile, "As expected of my son, he has the guts." The voice changed, and he asked aloud, "I wonder what the crown prince thinks about the Niulan Street case?"
