Chapter 482: Shocking the Capital

Chapter 482: Shocking the Capital
The lights were still on in the imperial study of the palace.

The Holy Emperor was not asleep, and neither was Gu Changsheng.

The two were talking about something.

Everyone knows that this Holy Emperor is diligent and often works all night long for government affairs.

Of course, most of the time, that person is Prime Minister Zhang.

It is said that Zhang Shoufu felt guilty towards his wife because he seldom went home, and gradually he gained the reputation of being henpecked.

But tonight, it was Gu Changsheng who changed.

Suddenly.

Gu Changsheng raised his head, surprised at first, then smiled and bowed: "Congratulations, Your Majesty."

Just finished.

The Holy Emperor also felt something and smiled knowingly.

Li Rui wants to break through the celestial phenomena.

"It is indeed a happy event. Ten years and three days of phenomena are a sign of the great prosperity of the country. I am very pleased."

"Lord Li is truly my lucky star."

Thinking that the person who was going to survive the tribulation was Li Rui, the Saint Emperor became even more interested.

He immediately pulled Gu Changsheng out of the imperial study.

The two raised their heads and looked at the calamity clouds that were covering the capital city not far away. Besides the two of them, countless people in the capital city were awakened by the thundering sound of the calamity clouds. They came to the streets one by one, craning their necks, and watched in fascination.

"Yes, yes, the six-color thunder is the same as Jiang Aiqing."

About an hour later.

The calamity clouds then dissipated.

It’s six-colored real thunder again.

The Holy Emperor laughed heartily: "Changsheng, how come I remember that it wasn't long since Li Aiqing broke through to Tongxuan."

Gu Changsheng: "Twenty-one years."

When he heard the number twenty-one years, surprise flashed in the Saint Emperor's eyes.

There are really not many things in this world that can surprise the Lord of Dragon Court.

Holy Emperor: "Isn't it only one year behind Dingting?"

Gu Changsheng nodded: "Yes."

"Changsheng, how many years did it take you?"

Gu Changsheng replied: "Thirty-seven years."

The Holy Emperor's eyes brightened: "Having Lord Li is a blessing for Dayu."

Turning to the eunuch Zheng beside him, he said: "Looking for Zilu, I want to grant amnesty to the whole world."

"A celestial phenomenon?!"

Zhou Tong, who had already left, looked at the gradually dissipating six-colored true thunder with a complicated look in his eyes.

This is such a coincidence.

Li Rui actually broke through the celestial phenomena and achieved the second grade.

A powerful person in the celestial realm.

That was no longer something he could control, not even the prince could do that.

It is not just a question of strength, but also a question of the Holy Emperor's majesty.

That is a forbidden area that cannot be touched.

He understands.

I'm afraid Li Rui's name will be crossed out from the list of candidates in that booklet.

"stop."

"pity."

Of course he knew that it actually took Li Rui only twenty-one years to break through the celestial phenomenon, a speed only slower than that of Yuan Dingting.

Such a natural talent.

If the Fifth Prince could obtain it, he would have a real chance of becoming a first-class prince.

But in the end, I missed the best opportunity.

Zhou Tong made a prompt decision and decided not to go there anymore.

The whole person disappeared into the alleys of the capital.

"call"

Li Rui exhaled slowly.

The calamity clouds dissipated.

Yuan An then came over, his eyes shining: "Master."

Li Rui smiled and nodded at Yuan An.

Ning Zhongtian and Tan Hu both went out to carry out their missions, and apart from the servants, Yuan An was the only one left in the room.

It can be said that Yuan An witnessed the celestial tribulation at close range.

Such an opportunity is extremely rare.

'Astronomical phenomena.'

Yuan An was so excited that he was about to tremble.

Although he inherited his mother's appearance and looked like a weak scholar, deep down he still had the strong heart of his father Yuan Dingting.

There were many celestial phenomena in the Annan Marquis's Mansion, and he was already accustomed to them.

But today, observing the power of the celestial phenomena so closely made him extremely excited and his heart was agitated.

Li Rui stood up slowly.

Not bad.

He just survived another tribulation.

He had gone through a calamity in his body before, but in fact that was the calamity of the immortal path, and Li Rui actually has two avenues.

The immortal path has been crossed, but the Qingxuan path has not yet been crossed.

Today's thunder was brought about by Qingxuan Dao.

He had planned all of this long ago.

Li Rui turned his head and looked in the direction Zhou Tong left.

Use power to repel evil.

Zhu Qian was spying on him, but little did he know that he was also secretly investigating the prince.

So he has been paying attention.

And set up formations around the house. If he was in Tongxuan, he might not be able to detect Zhou Tong coming to the mansion, but he was a celestial phenomenon. So when Zhou Tong came to the side of the house, Li Rui had already noticed Zhou Tong's presence.

Killing a close minister of the prince is undoubtedly stupid.

Moreover, this is the capital city, and there are too many powerful people watching.

So Li Rui chose to directly attract the thunder again.

In order to deter foreign enemies.

Otherwise, being watched by a prince all the time is not a good thing.

Moreover, he has now established himself in the celestial phenomena, and ordinary celestial phenomena are really no match for him.

He was just waiting for the right moment.

Zhou Tong's appearance made him make up his mind.

Showing 40% of your abilities is wise, but if you hide everything and make others feel that you are easy to bully, then the gain will outweigh the loss.

Just like Zhou Tong, he was frightened away by his celestial aura.

A celestial phenomenon is enough to make a prince hesitate.

In Yuan An’s delighted eyes.

Li Rui was about to go back to the house.

Then there was a knock on the door.

At this time, the servants had been awakened and the doorman was about to open the door.

Li Rui said, "Go to sleep, I'll do it."

After saying that, he pushed the door open by himself.

Gu Changsheng, Jiang Linxian.

"Congratulations, Brother Li."

As soon as I opened the door, I heard Gu Changsheng congratulating me with a smile and a fist.

Once you enter the celestial phenomenon, you will be congratulated.

This is quite a grand ceremony.

If other people knew about it, it would be a good story.

I heard that many storytellers in various places model themselves after Li Rui. If you know this material, it can add a lot of color to it.

"Owner, Brother Jiang."

Different from Gu Changsheng.

Jiang Linxian knew Li Rui's situation.

He was confused.

Li Rui has clearly broken through the celestial phenomena, so why can he still attract thunder now?
But he didn't ask.

Everyone has his own secrets. Li Rui is willing to tell him the secrets because it is a brotherly relationship. He will tell it when he wants to. But if he asks, it will break the rules between brothers.

Just believe it.

And when it comes to secrets, how could he be lacking in them?
"My brother is an extraordinary person, so he should do extraordinary things."

Jiang Linxian firmly believed in her judgment back then.

And now it seems that Li Rui may be even stronger than him.

Gu Changsheng looked at Li Rui with a smile:

"Brother Li, don't worry, His Majesty already knows about the breakthrough, and I will take care of your promotion from now on."

Subsequently.

A piece of news that shocked the world spread in Dayu.

Emperor Yu wanted to grant amnesty to the entire nation.

It was said that this was because there were people who achieved enlightenment in the celestial realm one after another in the capital, an event that had not happened in three thousand years and was a sign of the empire's great prosperity.

As for Li Rui's official position.

This needs further discussion.

I heard that it was mainly because Gu Changsheng was competing with Prime Minister Zhang for people, and the Holy Emperor was also in a dilemma about this.

A courtyard in the imperial palace.

"I see."

The fifth prince Zhu Qian did not look happy, he just nodded slightly at Zhou Tong.

Li Rui breaks through.

Three candidates became two.

In fact, his favorite target is Li Rui, not only because of Li Rui's identity, but also because he has a feeling that the secret of Li Rui may be bigger than he imagined.

The unknown is the most attractive.

Unfortunately, it is no longer possible.

A strong man in the Celestial Realm was no longer someone he could move.

If the Holy Emperor knew that he had killed a minister of astronomy, he would probably have no chance of inheriting the throne even if he became a first-rank official.

Only the palace coup remains.

Unless he is crazy, he would not do such a thing.

Zhou Tong also spoke up at this time: "Your Highness, Li Rui has already made a breakthrough, let's choose another target."

"Mr. Zhou is right."

Zhu Qian nodded.

Even though he was a prince, there were some things he could not do, otherwise even his uncle would not be able to protect him.

He still knows clearly about this kind of thing.

After Zhou Tong left.

Zhu Qian went back to the window and picked up the fallen scroll.

Turning it over in his hands.

But his mind was completely elsewhere.

An hour passed.
