Yuwen Zhiji was confused and could only reluctantly say, "Wait a moment, brother. I'll go ask."

After a short while.

Yuwen Zhiji led a naughty boy who was only four or five years old over and said, "Brother, this is Prince Yang Yan of Yan. The others were all taken out by their furious father. This child is the youngest, and his father didn't have time to take action yet."

Yu Wenzhi was overjoyed, and quickly pulled Yang Yan out, saying: "Everyone, listen to what I have to say. Whether it is Qi Wang Yang Jian or Yue Wang Yang Tong, they have both become wise. After what happened today, they are not qualified to be the emperor of the Sui Dynasty. It is better for Yan Wang Yang Yan to take over..."

In the palace, Yang Guang's death became a trivial matter.

As for the safety of the imperial palace, the order of Luoyang City and so on, they are also managed, maintained and rectified by the dependents among the aristocratic families.

A group of high-ranking officials of the Sui Dynasty began to compete fiercely over the issue of the throne.

In a sense, this is not just a court struggle, but also a preemptive move for the upcoming struggle for hegemony in the chaotic times. It is also an opportunity for all parties to place bets and take sides.

However, no one knew about these ambitious people in the Sui Dynasty.

At this moment, in the Yuan Dynasty and Ming Dynasty, tens of thousands of miles away, there were also blood demon puppets with a gleam in their eyes, spreading the news of Chiyou's blood cave within their respective spheres of influence.

Chapter 662: Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youjian

Ming Dynasty, capital of Nanjing.

It is different from the magnificent and majestic scene of the Sui Dynasty.

The prosperity of Jinling City is no less than Luoyang of the Sui Dynasty, Chang'an of the Sui Dynasty, Bianliang of the Song Dynasty, etc., but it is strangely intertwined with a contradictory atmosphere of historical innovation and decadent conservatism.

The Ming Dynasty has been in existence for hundreds of years, making it the second oldest of the six great dynasties.

It is different from the Qin Dynasty, a country where wise rulers emerged in large numbers and generations of people engaged in farming and fighting.

In the present Ming Dynasty, whether in the court or in the underworld, there are frequent appearances of reformers, while the conservative forces are still extremely large.

If it weren’t for the profound foundation of the Ming Dynasty Zhu family.

As early as two or three hundred years ago, the Ming Dynasty would have been swallowed up by the Daqing Dynasty, where evil spirits abounded.

This is different from the original trajectory of moving the capital to Yanjing.

In the Ming Dynasty, although it was still Zhu Di who seized the throne from his eldest nephew Zhu Yunwen, at the critical moment, the old Zhu Yuanzhang, who had long been buried in the imperial mausoleum, jumped out again, beat his son and grandson with fifty strokes of the stick each, and then passed the throne to Zhu Di and took Zhu Yunwen into the imperial mausoleum.

Since Zhu Yuanzhang was still alive, Zhu Di naturally did not dare to move the capital without permission.

However, after being beaten with a stick, Zhu Di was still not convinced and insisted on surpassing his father's achievements. He spent his whole life fighting in the grasslands and made Yanjing his secondary capital.

After Zhu Di retired, his descendants moved the center of the dynasty back to Nanjing.

The Zhu family did not have much background and foundation in northern places such as Yanjing, and their descendants were far less brave and invincible than Zhu Di. It would be safer for them to stay in the city of Nanjing.

Hundreds of years of development have resulted in the city of Jinling becoming a place where innovation and decay are intertwined and the atmosphere is strange.

But today.

All the reformists and conservatives gave up their previous party struggles, exercised great restraint, and came to the Golden Palace early, waiting for the emperor's arrival.

At the beginning of the fifth watch, the sound of whips was heard.

Zhu Youjian, the twelfth emperor of the Ming Dynasty, quickly entered the court under the protection of the powerful eunuchs around him.

"Open~morning~"

"All officials are here to meet you!"

"Long live my emperor!"

"Be flat!"

"All officials, dress in uniform, if you have something to report, otherwise leave the court!"

Unlike the relatively relaxed court environment of the Sui and Song dynasties, the court of the Ming Dynasty was extremely complicated with various rigid systems.

In essence, this is a manifestation of decadence.

But this system was set by Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Regardless of whether the princes and grandchildren of successive generations wanted to reform it, the fact that old Zhu was still alive was a huge deterrent.

Fortunately, Zhu Youjian was a typical wise ruler of the Zhu family, and was quite similar to Old Zhu.

Rigorous, disciplined, and diligent for more than ten years.

Zhu Youjian had long been accustomed to, or rather numb to, this almost harsh system.

The process is completed.

Zhu Youjian glanced at his ministers, waiting for the start of a new day of work.

However, what surprised Zhu Youjian was that all the disputes, quarrels, trivial matters, etc. that occurred in the court in the past did not appear today.

"Big companion!"

Zhu Youjian felt something was not right and glanced at the eunuch Wang Chengen next to him.

Wang Chengen understood instantly.

"If there is something going on, go ahead and leave if there is nothing going on!"

A powerful and loud voice rang out again in the Golden Throne Hall.

However, all the civil and military officials in the hall were like deaf and dumb, and no one said a word.

Zhu Youjian was already beginning to feel angry and was about to lose his temper.

At this moment, the crisp sound of galloping war horses was heard outside the hall.

"Eight hundred miles of urgent traffic, please report immediately!"

"Eight hundred miles of urgent traffic, please report immediately!"

The extremely clear voice of the order was transmitted into the Golden Throne Hall from afar.

Not long after, a messenger with a disheveled figure and covered in sweat ran into the hall. More than ten meters away, he slipped and knelt, and came across a sealed letter with wax.

"Report, Your Majesty, the Great Sui spy has sent a secret report, please review it!"

It was said to be an express delivery of 800 miles.

In fact, each of these dynasties has its own means of information transmission. If the Martial Saint is used to break the void, ten thousand miles a day is nothing more than that.

It can be said that this so-called 800-mile express message had spread throughout the Sui Dynasty court as early as last night.

Looking at the messenger in the hall.

Zhu Youjian was stunned for a moment, and then he casually took the secret letter into his hand.

After opening it, I quickly glanced at it.

Zhu Youjian's expression quickly became strange, and at the same time, he began to feel uneasy.

The urgent report sent over eight hundred miles had some similarities with the secret report Zhu Youjian received last night, but there were also some differences.

As early as the first time that Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty used the blood demon puppet to spread the news of Chiyou's blood cave.

Zhu Youjian had already received the secret information.

However, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty Zhu family who entered the Chiyou Blood Cave had the Dragon Soul Lamp in the imperial mausoleum, and there was also a great supervisor at the level of a Martial Saint who was specially guarding it.

The dragon soul lamp has not gone out, which means the ancestor is fine.

Therefore, Zhu Youjian regarded the information deliberately spread by Yang Guang as false information.

But it can be done in today's 800-mile express.

In addition to the information about Chiyou's blood cave, there was also information about Yang Guang's death in the Sui Dynasty Palace.

In this way, Zhu Youjian understood why all the officials in the court remained silent.

This has always been the case in the Ming Dynasty.

Because the Ming imperial family was too powerful, only trivial domestic matters were handled by court officials in the court, and the real major events concerning the dynasty were decided in the Ming imperial mausoleum.

But Yang Guang died and the Sui Dynasty fell into chaos.

Obviously, this kind of thing is beyond the scope of the Ming Dynasty court.

Zhu Youjian glanced at the ministers in the court with disdain, waved his hand, and left.

It was not until this time that a young eunuch under Sun Chengen's command shouted loudly for the court to leave.

After retiring from court, Zhu Youjian took the secret letter in his hand and reported to the emperor. He brought only Sun Chengen with him and hurried to the Purple Mountain behind the Ming Palace.

"Your Majesty, are you free today? Are you here to meet the ancestors?"

"You Jian, I meet with Supervisor Cao."

"You are so polite. Your Majesty, please come in."

"Well, my dear companion, you can stay here to chat with Cao Dajian for a while and reminisce about the past."

"Your Majesty, please slow down!"

At the foot of Zijin Mountain, a cave entrance that looked like a barrier quickly opened up. Zhu Youjian strode forward, passed through the barrier, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

It was not until this time that Cao Zhengchun made a hand seal and closed the barrier again.

Then, Cao Zhengchun looked at Sun Chengen with a smile and said, "Chengen, the current emperor is a rare and capable ruler in the imperial family of the Ming Dynasty. You are my only disciple, so you need to intensify your practice of Tiangang Tongzi Gong."

Sun Chengen nodded honestly and said, "Master, Chengen will not dare to slack off in the slightest..."

Chapter 663: Purple Gold Secret Realm, Furious Zhu Yuanzhang

There are twelve generations in the Ming Dynasty. Although not every emperor has made great achievements, with the suppression of the Ming royal family, many talents emerged in each generation.

Among these talents, in addition to some well-known knights in the outside world, the majority are eunuchs from the imperial palace.

In the original trajectory, many eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty became extremely powerful and treacherous because of the emperor's inaction.

But in this Ming Dynasty.

Even if those eunuchs were given ten times the courage, they would not dare to act so presumptuously.

It is precisely because the Ming Dynasty had royal ancestors and the suppression of many eunuch masters that the Ming Dynasty was able to maintain its undefeated national fortune for hundreds of years amidst the various turbulent historical waves.

And almost all of the heritage of the Ming Dynasty is hidden deep in the imperial tombs of Purple Mountain.

To the east of Jinling City is Purple Mountain, where a tiger leaps from the deep mountains and a dragon comes from the Yangtze River, creating a natural situation where a tiger crouches and a dragon coils.

At the beginning, some people also wanted to occupy the Feng Shui treasure land of Zijin Mountain.

Unfortunately, the Feng Shui of this place is too overbearing and precious. Even the Martial Saint and the immortals on earth cannot control such Feng Shui.

It was not until the emergence of Zhu Yuanzhang, with the help of the boundless fortune of the imperial capital, that the Purple Mountain was completely subdued. After hundreds of years of nourishment, feedback, and construction, the Purple Mountain Imperial Mausoleum has been transformed into a secret place similar to a small world.

However, this secret realm is still located in the Nine Provinces, just with the void overlapping.

Unlike the Tianmen World, the Xianmen World, etc., it has become an independent world.

In a sense, the paradise that Yang Su pursued all his life is similar to the Purple Mountain Imperial Mausoleum of the Ming Dynasty.

However, the real cave world is anchored in another dimensional void of a certain Kyushu thing. All the vitality, spiritual charm, etc. have become an independent entity and are replenished from the void.

The secret realm of the Purple Gold Mountain Imperial Mausoleum is formed by folding and hiding the void where the Purple Gold Mountain was originally located, and it still belongs to the Jiuzhou world.

It is different from the imperial tombs of the Song Dynasty which are like the Yinshi Cave Heaven.

After entering the secret realm of the Purple Jin Mountain Imperial Mausoleum, there is a stretch of mountains and rivers. The main peak is towering like clouds. This is because of the purple jade dragon pond on the mountainside. The pond is deep and the clouds are steaming, making the entire sky filled with purple air, making the whole secret realm look like a fairyland.

Zhu Youjian’s cultivation was not weak. Although he was only in his early forties, he had already reached the peak of celestial cultivation.

In this not particularly large secret realm, Zhu Youjian walked very quickly, and in a short while, he arrived at the Righteousness Pavilion next to the Purple Jade Dragon Pond.

In the Zhengqi Pavilion, two old men in plain clothes were seen playing chess.

One of the old men had a majestic appearance, and he had a heroic and domineering aura that made it difficult for people to look directly at him.

The other old man, on the other hand, had an ethereal and mysterious aura.

When Zhu Youjian saw two people playing chess, he didn't dare to disturb them.

After waiting for quite a while, I saw the two old men stop playing chess and drink tea leisurely.

Zhu Youjian just stepped forward and said, "I, your descendant Zhu Youjian, greet my great grandfather and my uncle Chengyi."

These two people were Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and Liu Bowen.

Hear Zhu Youjian's words.
