Chapter 43 Come up and let me take a look
Xiao Qiu looked at Xiao Yi, who looked like she had lost her parents, and continued:
"Sixth Prince, please wait here with me. Once His Majesty has seen the Crown Prince, he will make a decision on the matter."
Not only did he fail to teach Gu Fangchen a lesson, he also got himself into trouble...
Xiao Yi was like a wilted cabbage and immediately lost his confidence, but he was still puzzled.
Why?
It was clearly said a few days ago in the court that it had been verified on the spot that the top scholar Zhang Yuandao was the biological son of the King of Zhenbei.
Moreover, even Gu Fangchen’s biological father has been found and tortured. How come it has been three days and Gu Fangchen has not been convicted yet?
hateful!
Xiao Yi stared at Gu Fangchen's back.
This must be another conspiracy of the Demon Cult. Even someone as wise as him fell into it. The Demon Cult should not be underestimated!
Xiao Qiu clapped his hands, and immediately a Blood-Clothed Guard in dark red tights appeared from the darkness, carefully examined the broken sword on the ground, and put it away.
The kind-looking eunuch looked at Gu Fangchen's back with a flickering gaze.
But overnight, he went from a useless person to a seventh-grade...
This prince is really good at hiding things.
…
Gu Fangchen raised his head. The huge Ziji Palace stood majestically. He could not see the end of it. It was even more shocking than the scenes in the game.
There are many spectacular buildings in Wei, among which the three main cities are the most famous:
The sun blocks out the sky, the golden scales are ingenious, and the pagoda is made of divine craftsmanship.
The Central Plains Huangtian City, which symbolizes the pinnacle of Wei's power, the Jinlin City, which guards the northern border, and the Futu City, a Buddhist kingdom in the south of the Yangtze River.
Jinlin City is where Gu Yuye's Xuanhuang Army is stationed. Flags with the word "Gu" on them are everywhere in the city, and it is also the territory that he truly controls.
Futu City is a Buddhist kingdom on earth built by the Galan Temple. There are 480 temples in the city, and there is also a giant Buddha statue that is 100 meters tall, looking down at the people in the world.
These three cities are the places where players like to check in and take photos the most.
Of course, reaching the best scenic spots in these three cities is not easy...
But it doesn’t matter, SL’s method is invincible.
Although this crappy game only has three save slots, players who focus on strategy will be extremely cautious, but casual players don't have this worry.
Thinking of those players shitting on the roof of Ziji Palace, well... Gu Fangchen thought about the saddest things in his life and couldn't help laughing.
“Ahem…”
He coughed twice, climbed the stairs, and walked into the Ziji Palace under the watchful eyes of the guards.
The Ziji Hall is very large, but also very empty.
The hall, which is usually filled with civil and military officials during court sessions, is now empty. You can hear a pin drop. It seems quiet, eerie and depressing.
Looking up, all one could see was the long black banners embroidered with gold dragon patterns draped down from the end of the stairs, with the outline of the tall dragon throne faintly visible behind it. Not even the figure of Emperor Yong'an could be seen.
Gu Fangchen took a deep breath.
Only he knew that what he would face next would be the final boss of the entire game.
At this moment, here and now.
Just before he traveled through time, he had just defeated it and saw it with his own eyes as it turned into ashes with a loud laugh.
Emperor Yong'an Xiao Ding held the highest power in the Wei Dynasty for 170 years.
Or, should I call him——
[The Lord of Hengchang Dao, the First Emperor of Ancient Times].
That’s right, Emperor Yong’an Xiao Ding is the master of the “Heng Chang Dao” among the Ten Daos of the Demon Cult.
The reason why most players cannot reach the true ending is that they fail to uncover the identity of the true final boss.
Whether it was killing Emperor Yong'an Xiao Ding or killing the "Hengchang" Taoist Master "Hu", it was only killing one of his identities.
Moreover, under these two identities, Xiao Ding has another hidden identity.
If the player cannot uncover this identity, all efforts will be in vain. Therefore, when Gu Fangchen finally released the video guide, he asserted that the other endings were fake endings!
Only [Six Dusts Return to Truth] is the only true ending!
According to the history of "Mirror in the Dust", there have been five dynasties that have ruled the Central Plains since ancient times.
Zhou, Qi, Xia, Ning, and Wei.
Gu Fangchen sorted out a large number of clues and combined them with the previous five endings, only to discover that the founding emperor and the last emperor of each dynasty were actually the same person.
Similarly, this also includes...Da Wei.
Thirteen hundred years ago, he made an alliance with the Confucian sages and established the founding emperor of the Wei Dynasty with high spirits. He is the same person as the Emperor Yong'an who is now clinging to power and refusing to let go.
The tyrant who started the chaotic times was also the emperor who ended it.
Dynasties changed again and again, good and evil clashed again and again, some rose and some fell, but it was always imprisoned in the hands of one person.
This is the constant.
Gu Fangchen can still clearly remember the shock he felt when he arranged all the clues in order and finally came to such a conclusion.
The tingling sensation on his scalp at that moment is still fresh in his memory.
This is also one of the reasons why he still felt uneasy after reaching the ending. He always felt that even with the ending of [Six Dusts Return to the True Self], there still seemed to be something missing.
Can the new order he established really get rid of such a shadow that is like a thorn in the flesh?
The protagonist who came back...is he really still the protagonist?
Previously, all players including Gu Fangchen thought that Emperor Yong'an was just an emperor who was good at playing power games and focused on balancing the forces in the court, but his own achievements were unremarkable.
The ability to sit firmly on the throne depends entirely on the blessing of national fortune and one's own political tactics, which allow all forces to check and balance each other.
But precisely because of his excessive pursuit of power, Emperor Yong'an sometimes even appeared a little foolish and weak.
For example, in order to elevate the status of Tara religion and enable it to compete with the Galan Monastery, he bathed and burned incense to show respect, which gradually changed the public opinion of Tara religion.
Most players also scoff at Emperor Yong'an.
In the previous endings, killing Emperor Yong'an was not a difficult task. As long as the situation became chaotic, Emperor Yong'an's head would fall off soon.
It was only later that Gu Fangchen discovered that this guy was actually a big onion.
The vest is peeled off layer by layer.
Gu Fangchen's memory flashed back in an instant. He pinched his sweaty palms and walked forward.
He hesitated for a moment, felt that saving his life was more important, and was about to kneel down.
Emperor Yong'an's interested voice suddenly came from behind the curtain of long banners, echoing in the empty Ziji Palace, almost distorted.
"Come up and let me take a look."
What are you looking at?
Gu Fangchen was stunned. When he reached the steps, he didn't hear Emperor Yong'an speak, so he continued to walk up until he stopped in front of the heavy black banner.
It would be impolite to go any further.
He stood there, feeling the gaze behind the long banner quietly observing him, and doubts arose in his heart.
Without talking about his identity or Gu Yuye, what does Emperor Yong'an want to do?
etc……
A piece of secret about "Master Hengchang" that could only be considered gossip suddenly flashed through Gu Fangchen's mind.
"The Master of Hengchang Dao" represents immutability, and therefore should not have descendants. However, due to a discussion of Dao, this immutability was once broken.
It should be noted that this secret belongs to "Hengchang Daozhu" rather than Emperor Yong'an.
And there is only this one in the entire game.
The meaning of this gossip secret is that "Master Hengchang" had a descendant, but then disappeared.
Gu Fangchen felt a little strange.
He thought of the origin of his original body.
This guy was replaced by the Demon Cult, and the groom was also a member of the Demon Cult.
Could it be that the gossip says—
Is it him?
