But Chi Feng's attitude made him cautious again, and in the end he only gave the "goddess" the title of Golden Sparrow Priestess, and did not give her the title of Princess. Because at that time, not only this girl, but also a special "goddess" appeared in the sword fight in Chilou. This made the emperor have to think carefully about whether there was a connection between the goddesses. If the negotiations were too in-depth, would it reveal that he had imprisoned Chi Feng?

Therefore, the emperor did not stop Loran Hill from traveling on the sea.

But the development of things is like two parallel lines that deviate slightly. At first, the crack is invisible, but as time goes by, the crack becomes bigger and bigger.

In order to prevent the news of the imprisonment of Chi Feng from leaking out, the emperor had to silence many of the Fire Feather Maids on Yuzhang Mountain. Moreover, the top Red Sparrow Dragon Riders in the dynasty were also treated coldly by the emperor. He focused on supporting the Golden Dragon Armor Army directly under the royal family, and urged the subordinate agencies of the Four Seasons Officials to develop new firearms and weapons.

After telling one lie, you have to tell countless lies to cover it up.

In the past, he thought he could do it, until the day when his most beloved youngest son accidentally broke into the Ailong Palace.

The prince was overly pampered in his daily life and was not afraid even of the blades of the Shuolong guards. He knew that these people did not dare to kill him, so he rushed in just to satisfy his curiosity.

The seal in the Ailong Palace was broken. In order to prevent Chi Feng from escaping, the two masters who stayed behind had to take action. In the chaos, Chi Feng died. The prince, who didn't know what he had done wrong, complained to the emperor with an innocent look, saying that he was scared.

Unfortunately, this time he was no longer facing a kind and tolerant emperor, but a cold and ruthless king who even laughed in anger. The noble concubine Yaoxin, who came from a prominent family, was sentenced to death that night, and the once beloved prince was also secretly beheaded.

After the Red Phoenix disappeared, the dragon veins of the world soon became disordered. It was not until then that the emperor realized that even though he had imprisoned the Red Phoenix, he had always maintained the stability of the dragon veins. After losing this phoenix, all his methods began to fail.

In the blink of an eye, five years passed. Even though the emperor tried to suppress and cover up the incident, it was gradually becoming too late.

The dragon vein disaster is imminent, and people from all over the world come to ask again and again, asking about the whereabouts of the Red Phoenix and the root cause of the current dragon vein problem.

Faced with this unsolvable situation, he dragged his frail body up the mountain again and knelt in meditation and worship in the Shenlong Hall.

A confession of guilt, a letter of apology.

In the edict, the emperor confessed his guilt, the king lost his way, the dynasty fell, and the sacred artifact changed hands.

At this point, the emperor abdicated, the Five Phoenix Kingdoms were redivided, the dragon vein was cut off, and the dynasty came to an end.

…

At present, only a few people in Shenlong Palace know the content of the edict in the dynasty, but they have different ideas about whether to make it public.

"Your Highness Zhaolong, you absolutely cannot do this. If this decree is announced, the world will collapse in an instant, and Your Highness, as a member of the royal family, will immediately become a criminal, suffering humiliation and will never be able to turn over a new leaf." A close minister wearing a green square hat knelt on the ground. He was the eunuch in charge of the seal in the palace and the person closest to the emperor on weekdays.

"But, if I don't announce it, how can I deal with this situation?" Prince Zhaolong sighed and shook his head, then his expression was depressed.

"Your Highness, chaos is inevitable. Whether it's announced or not is of little use. The key lies in how to restore peace to the world."

"The only solution so far is to return to the ancient times and cut off the dragon veins, breaking them into pieces so that the priestesses can control them."

"As for the matter of Chifeng...now we can only attribute it to a natural disaster. It is said that Chifeng had been ill for many years and has passed away. There is nothing we can do."

"No immortal from all over the world would agree with such a reason." Xiao Yubing, who had been silent for a long time, turned around, and the elegant princess shook her head.

"I have a lot of interactions with disciples from major sects who come to visit me. They won't easily believe this explanation."

"Oh, so what if you don't approve? Do you want to openly rebel? There are more than one family coming to you. There will always be people loyal to the dynasty." The minister's voice turned cold and he spoke in a gloomy and decisive manner.

"Now, I don't seek universal approval, but as long as I have the Dynasty's Red Sparrow Dragon Riders, I can sweep across the world again, just like I did hundreds of years ago."

"Don't be afraid of natural disasters, don't be concerned about what people say, in extraordinary times, we should do extraordinary things!"

"Your Highness, the imperial edict is here. Seeing it is like seeing the emperor. It is like holding great power and being incomparably honored. If the imperial edict is no longer available and the power falls into someone else's hands, Your Highness, will you remember what happened to Prince Zhaolong?"

Prince Xinglong was a figure who lived three hundred years ago. At that time, the emperor passed the throne to his younger brother and ordered him to bring the army to protect him. After the emperor ascended the throne, more than three years later, he rebelled and executed Prince Xinglong.

If Prince Zhaolong did not seize the opportunity and wait for the matter to be leaked, or if Prince Dai and Prince Huainan arrived, his fate might be similar to that of Prince Xinglong. This is the metaphor of the minister.

Hearing the minister's words, Xiao Yubing frowned deeply. She was the daughter of King Huainan, and it was not easy for her to say much at this moment. She could only turn her gaze to Prince Zhaolong beside her again.

Sure enough, the young prince hesitated.

Although he was favored before, everyone knew that the successor to the throne would be Prince Dai or Prince Huainan, so he did not have too many thoughts. But the situation is different now. If he gives up this opportunity, at best the dynasty will cease to exist, he will lose his royal status and become a criminal, at worst he will be suspected by his two brothers and be killed directly based on charges.

"Zhaolong." Xiao Yubing came over and looked directly at the prince.

Looking at this scorching gaze, Prince Zhaolong subconsciously avoided it and took half a step back.

"Do you want to be the emperor?" Xiao Yubing asked directly.
