Outside the hall, the ministers were waiting for the news of Emperor Jianxi's death. However, what they saw was Emperor Jianxi coming out with his hands behind his back and telling them that he wanted to abdicate and asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to choose a good day and the Ministry of Rites to prepare for the coronation ceremony of the new emperor, the sooner the better.
He looks like he can't wait to retire and run away.
All the officials were confused until Zhao Ying came out and expressed some thoughts on taking office, and then used both kindness and force on Yang Taifu and Yin Chengxiang. Some people were just mean, and they said that Yang Taifu and Yin Chengxiang were given a slap in the face and a sweet date, and they were convinced and cried with gratitude, not daring to disobey them again.
Hengbi was not convinced and wanted to make a final effort. He looked at the divine beasts stationed at the four corners of the Forbidden City. Just as he was about to urge them to make a fight, he saw in the void that behind each of the four divine beasts stood a taller and more ferocious beast.
If not the four evil beasts, then who is it?
Taotie vs Azure Dragon, Taowu vs White Tiger, Hun Dun vs Suzaku, Qiongqi vs Black Tortoise.
The four divine beasts felt a chill on their backs and looked back, all of them were shocked.
The four ferocious beasts have long disliked the four divine beasts. Why are they treated so well when they are all beasts and are auspicious beasts, yet they are obviously a bunch of weaklings who can't withstand a punch from them!
The four ferocious beasts are ready to teach them how to behave like beasts!
Four Sacred Beasts: Can we compete in beauty instead of fighting?
That...of course won't work.
While the four divine beasts inexplicably felt a chill on their backs, Hengbi also felt a chill coming from his calves.
Just as he was about to turn around to look, he heard a sneaky child's voice, "Fifth Brother, what are you doing?"
"ah!"
Hengbi stumbled a step as if he had seen a ghost, then frowned and asked, "Junior Sister?"
Shangguan Qingyue raised an eyebrow and pursed her lips. [So Fifth Senior Brother is here... No wonder my uncle turned bad. It must have been that despicable and cunning Fifth Senior Brother who taught him...]
"Yes, it's me!" the little guy said crisply.
"What do you want to talk to me about?"
It has to be said that people with status and position are decent. Even if there is a life-and-death feud between them, they can still meet again without any red eyes or embarrassment.
Don’t care about life or death, just keep fighting if you don’t agree!
Shangguan Qingyue said obediently, "Yes, yes, I have something to tell you!"
"What's the matter?" Hengbi had a hunch that something bad was going to happen.
"Which one do you want to hear, good news or bad news?"
"It's bad!"
"It's just... your ghost path was destroyed and disappeared..."
"What?" Hengbi's chest tightened, and he forced himself to ask, "What's the good news?"
"It's not far away, it's in the sky!" As he said that, the little guy stretched out his finger and pointed to the sky.
Hengbi’s eyes almost popped out. The sky?
He covered his chest and said, "Can a ghost see the sun?!"
Wouldn’t this burn all of his ghost clan to ashes?
He gnashed his teeth and asked, "Who did it? Who did it?"
The little guy blinked innocently, then raised two fingers, "There's still good news and bad news."
"OK."
"It was Chao Li who did it!"
"Okay, okay! Bad?"
“…And me…”
Hengbi: ...
After saying that, the little guy turned around, twisted his little butt, and ran away.
Hengbi was left alone to go crazy.
But what made him even more crazy was that Shangguan Shu came to find him.
Without saying a word, he pushed him against the wall and said sinisterly, "Fifth brother, how are you?"
Hengbi didn't have time to be surprised. Seeing this, he frowned and asked, "Sixth brother, why are you doing this?"
"Shouldn't I ask Fifth Brother about this?"
Hengbi looked at Shangguan Shuru's dark eyes, and a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes, "What do you mean?"
Shangguan Shu let him go and sneered, "Since you've forgotten, I'll remind you, the storybook!"
Hengbi was struck by lightning and looked at him in disbelief, "You remember everything?"
"No, how could that be..."
Shangguan Shu sneered, his dark eyes flashing as he said contemptuously, "Big Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, Fourth Brother, you've all found your spiritual veins and returned to your positions. Fifth Brother, where is your true soul?"
Hengbi deliberately slowed his breathing, his expression unreadable, "I don't know."
"Why don't I tell you!" Shangguan Shu took out the River Map and Luo Shu, and out of thin air, he drew a wisp of blue-white energy from it and pushed it into Hengbi's body. Hengbi was shocked, and then he heard Shangguan Shu say in a deep voice, "'The princess flies gracefully, and the dog chases you', right? Hold on to your true soul!"
Heng Bi's handsome face wrinkled. The unpurified true soul entered his body, causing his breathing to become disordered.
Shangguan Shu ignored his discomfort, pulled out another strand, and inserted it into Hengbi's body. "Fifth brother, you still love writing these vicious books. No wonder Zhao Xi and Consort Gang suddenly appeared. Your pen is really powerful. What's the name of this book? Ah, 'The Princess Looked Back Only After the Prince Consort Died in Battle'?"
The smile on Shangguan Shu's lips was so cold that it made people shudder. "I asked you to write a story of mutual love, but you gave me this?"
Hengbi's face turned pale. He squatted down, clutching his aching chest, and said in a hoarse voice, "You said you would love her well in the Hetu Luoshu and repay her all the love you owed her, right?"
Shangguan Shu suppressed the urge to kick Hengbi.
Seeing his gloomy expression, Hengbi came to his senses and burped, his chest finally feeling better. "Now that you remember, you should know that I was also under the order of my father and had no choice."
"You secretly gave me a potion to make me lose my memory. Were you forced to do so?"
Hengbi said anxiously, "Sixth brother, I'm doing this for your own good! Are you really going to go against our father for her, willing to perish and scatter all your cultivation across the world? Don't forget, you still have a daughter! How can you bear to leave her to suffer alone?"
