Chapter 356 Death Sand Sea
After the incident was over, everything became clear to the court.
The general's mansion and his subordinates were all purged, and the prince was demoted and imprisoned.
The military power was returned to the hands of the emperor, and at the court the next day, all the grievances that had occurred in the Prime Minister's Mansion over the years were naturally revealed.
Just when everyone thought that the prime minister would be the only one in charge of the speeches in the court from now on, the prime minister took the lead and directly asked for leave to return home.
"After this incident, I am already exhausted, not to mention my old age. I am no longer able to bear such heavy responsibilities. I hope Your Majesty will grant me permission."
Hearing this, not only were the officials in the court shocked, but even the emperor's eyes flashed with surprise, and he spoke,
"My dear minister, you worry too much. You have worked hard and made great contributions over the years. We still need you to take charge of the court."
Unexpectedly, Prime Minister Xiao seemed to be determined. He took off his official hat and knelt on the ground to beg for mercy.
So the King of Qin had no choice but to give up.
Little did he know that only after the person at the top agreed did Prime Minister Xiao breathe a sigh of relief. All of this was the advice written in Mr. Luoying's letter.
The current King Qin is very suspicious, not to mention the previous incident at the General's Mansion, his doubts are probably even greater.
If he knew what the Prime Minister's Mansion was planning behind the scenes, he would probably feel resentful and might find an opportunity to take action against the Prime Minister's Mansion.
This coincided with what Prime Minister Xiao had in mind. After all, Qin Sheng was now the candidate for the next crown prince, so it was wise for him to protect himself.
After this incident, he understood the emperor's psychology even more clearly. The more he planned, the more difficult it would be to seize. The way to win was to retreat in order to advance.
As expected, although the emperor removed many of the positions of the Prime Minister's Office when he was rectifying the mess, he also retained some of them, allowing the Prime Minister's Office to have a certain say.
At the same time, a few days later, he sent someone to invite the prime minister to Yunzhang Academy to study and give lectures.
Although he was not the prime minister, as a university scholar of the Royal Academy, he taught high-ranking officials and had a very high status.
At this time, Qin Sheng was old enough to study at Yunzhang Academy.
Little Pidun has grown up and is almost ten years old. He has stayed in the ancestral home in the south for a long time and is finally able to return to the palace with Concubine Zhao.
Finally, it is time for Luo Diandian to change her identity. The little brat has grown up and many things are no longer easy to deceive.
After all, she is a man in the eyes of others, but a woman in his eyes. If this continues, she will be exposed.
Moreover, under her influence, the little brat was not affected by her mother's obsession. Instead, she grew up healthily and happily. She no longer had aversion to books and could find fun in them on her own.
The key is the change in his temperament. He has changed from the arrogant child to a good child who gets along well with people around him and has compassion.
These were not easy for Luo Diandian, who had spent a lot of effort to cultivate him.
At this time, the two were walking on the ordinary streets. Luo Diandian bought him his favorite candied haws, and finally touched his head.
"Xiao Sheng, you will be returning to the imperial capital tomorrow. When you enter the academy, you will have better teachers to teach you. After all, I am not very knowledgeable and can't teach you anything."
She was still good at enlightening children, but for those profound and convoluted ancient theories, it depended on her personal practice.
"Sister, won't you go with me?" Qin Sheng raised his chubby face, which was no longer round, and looked at her in a daze.
Luo Diandian shook her head. "Sister has her own things to do and can't accompany you for the time being. We will meet again when there is a chance in the future."
Qin Sheng lowered his head slightly, and even the sweetness of the candied haws in his hand faded a little.
After all, Luo Diandian has been by his side for so many years, and with her care for him, he has long regarded her as his own sister.
But I didn't expect that the two of us would be separated like this.
“Separation and death are very normal things in this world. If you are sad, just move forward with the hope of another person!”
This is also what Luo Diandian has felt over the years. She was really sad at the beginning, but thinking that they would meet again one day, her fighting spirit was rekindled in her heart!
Hearing this, Qin Sheng nodded thoughtfully, and he and Luo Diandian took one last look at the bustling night scene in front of them.
After one night, there was no news of Mr. Luoying behind the scenes, and he seemed to have withdrawn from the world.
Luo Diandian knew that when Qin Sheng became emperor, Mr. Luo Ying would return.
By then, what he was plotting was no longer the throne of the King of Qin, but the common ruler of the world!
…
In the world of immortal cultivation, Xizhou is called the Death Sand Sea.
The north wind blowing from the dark sea in the far west never stops all year round, stirring up billions of kilograms of yellow sand, like a dragon breaking free from its shackles, rushing across the sky and earth.
At this time, in the endless sand and dust, a person was walking slowly forward, and the footprints he just stepped out were instantly buried by the yellow sand.
What's strange is that there is a barrier around her body, which isolates her from the erosion of yellow sand.
“Ohh…”
When will I find it...
The little fire above his head complained in a dry and unbearable manner.
So Luo Diandian took out a water bottle from the space bracelet and gave it to it, feeling a little confused. "I don't know. I feel like the star map is useless here."
The reason she came to Xizhou was because she had previously returned to the world of immortal cultivation and wanted to use the remaining time to find some secret places to improve her cultivation.
But she didn't expect that when she went to Xinglan to see the development of the Wu clan, Wu Hong learned of her idea and, after hesitation, suggested that she go to Xizhou.
Luo Diandian was a little confused, "Xizhou?"
"That's right. In fact, in the beginning, our Wu clan's ancestors came from Xizhou. Not only the Wu clan, but also many humans migrated from Xizhou to Nanzhou."
"It's just that the environment in the western continent is too harsh and no longer suitable for human survival, so we have no choice but to move to the three neighboring continents."
There are powerful monsters and spiritual creatures in Xizhou that can adapt to the environment and survive. There are countless secret realms and there may even be ancient battlefields.
"A small part of our Wu clan's heritage is still in Xizhou. The Wanxiang Star Disk can just sense the existence of that place, and the Sky-Eclipse Vine comes from the Western Ming Sea." Wu Hong said slowly.
Luo Diandian was a little surprised, "Erosion Vine?"
Wu Hong went on to explain, "Indeed, our ancestors obtained the Sky-Eroding Vine from the Western Nether Sea long ago. Moreover, they only took a small branch."
The Western Ming Sea is a world of spiritual creatures, but it is also an extremely dangerous existence. Only the strong can survive.
There is a reason why Xizhou is called the most dangerous continent.
Spiritual creatures, demonic beasts, natural forces, and even some extremely vicious monks, in order to avoid being hunted down by the Immortal Alliance, chose to flee to Xizhou and set up camp regardless of the danger to their lives.
But this is also where crisis and opportunity coexist.
After all, many powerful inheritances cannot be taken away and have been stationed there with the help of the power of storms and sand seas, and are buried tightly in the underground world of endless yellow sand.
The reason why it cannot be moved is that the inheritance has not been fully obtained, so Wu Hong can say with certainty that the resources inside are enough for Luo Diandian to break through to the Void Refining Realm.
But the prerequisite is that she needs to survive there.
Although he really didn't want her to take any risks, seeing the desire for strength in Luo Diandian's eyes, Wu Hong still said it and pointed to the place where the Wu clan used to be.
After hearing Wu Hong's instructions, Luo Diandian hesitated for a moment before clasping his fists and bowing.
"Thank you, Master Hong. I've decided to go to Xizhou!"
