C694 The Fifth Prince Who Was Behind All of This!
The deeper he spoke, the deeper he spoke, "Furthermore, he has a stubborn look on his face. I'm afraid that it's impossible for us to bribe him. Otherwise, the Right Prime Minister would have succeeded!"
"We can't say things so absolutely." The young prince said, "All the people in the world come for the sake of profit. All the people in the world come for the sake of profit! The reason why we can't bribe him is because the price we offer isn't high enough!"
"This time, this king personally came to bribe him, giving gifts first before sending troops. Even if I fail, I can still kill him on this king's home ground! I must not let him report the accurate information to Royal Father!"
The Right Minister nodded and shook his head. "I feel that this is not appropriate. What if we fail? Or is it that Wang Ziqi has already sent the information to the Holy Emperor? "
"That is why we cannot put the eggs in one basket!" The young prince said, "We have to do it both at the same time! Uncle Yue King, immediately gather all your soldiers and hide in the surroundings of the Imperial Palace."
"Right Prime Minister, you will lead your men to surround the palace and stop the other officials from prying."
"I will also inform the Devil Clan to prepare for the attack. I will use all my strength to prepare everything. If anything happens, we will launch an attack with all our might and bring the matter up in advance!"
Ji Chen spent the entire night interrogating General Yue Xiao in the prison. The next day, he came out early in the morning and a Thousand Households of Blue Bird Guard came to report to him, saying that there was a eunuch waiting for him.
When Ji Chen arrived at the guest hall, he saw an old eunuch with snow-white hair waiting for him. When he saw Ji Chen, he immediately went forward to greet him.
"Our family greets Lord Marquis. My master invites you to meet him. Please come to the manor to have a chat." The old white-haired eunuch said to Ji Chen. Although the etiquette was very proper, he did not show the slightest respect.
Ji Chen scanned with his Divine Sense. This man was also a Martial Saint Layer 10 expert. It seemed like he had lived for more than 50 million years. He was an absolute old monster, and even in the Imperial Palace, he was a chief steward.
"Your master? Eunuch, may I ask who your master is and why he came to invite me?" Ji Chen asked in surprise. Only the Imperial Palace and the Imperial Palace could use eunuchs, but it was obvious that this was not the Imperial Palace's eunuch.
"Haha, Lord Marquis really likes to joke around. Didn't you already know?" The white-haired eunuch gave Ji Chen a sinister laugh before leading the way. "Lord Marquis, hurry up and leave. My Mistress dares to wait anxiously."
Ji Chen did not say anything else this time. It was obvious that the one who invited him this time was not Yue King, but the prince hidden in the depths. At this moment, the mastermind was finally going to reveal himself.
As soon as Ji Chen stepped out of the door, he sat on a luxurious carriage and walked along the wide and straight road. The old eunuch personally drove the carriage, clearly not giving Ji Chen the chance to escape.
Of course, Ji Chen didn't care about running away. He just let the old eunuch drive the carriage. Soon, they arrived at their destination. A magnificent building complex appeared in front of Ji Chen.
Ji Chen followed the old eunuch into the mansion through the back door. After passing through the winding corridors, they passed through the fake mountains and cultivated bamboo, and arrived at the beautiful back garden.
There were all kinds of beautiful flowers planted here. Under the cluster of flowers, butterflies fluttered up and down. They were gorgeous and lovely. There was the fragrance of flowers that refreshed one's heart and mind. There were faint neon lights, and the clouds and mist were scattered. It was a beautiful sight to behold.
On one side of the garden, there was a cool spring water, and a natural top-grade spring water spurted out a foot tall spring water.
Beside the spring water, there was a soft beast skin. Upon closer inspection, it was actually made from the beast skin of a Martial Immortal level demon. Within the fur, there were dense symbols interweaving. It could be seen that it was luxurious and extraordinary.
On top of this beast skin cushion sat a handsome young man. He had a tall figure, a jade-like face, and wore a purple Flood Dragon King's robe. His long black hair was casually tied behind his head with a wooden hairpin, giving him a carefree feeling.
This young man was in the middle of preparing the spring water for tea. When he saw Ji Chen, he immediately burst into laughter. "I just got a kilogram of Dao Tea from Great Dao Holy Land. Valiant Marquis, come over quickly. Let's drink some tea and have a chat."
The old eunuch stood respectfully at the side. However, Ji Chen didn't show any politeness. He just laughed and sat opposite of the young man. "The Fifth Prince is really elegant. He's so quiet and free. I'm envious of others!"
That's right. The prince who invited Ji Chen here was the current Fifth Prince. He was also the last person behind the rebellion this time.
Truth Holy Emperor had countless heirs, but only six of them had the ability to fight for the throne. The Crown Prince of Truth was naturally ranked first, not only was he the youngest. He was the rightful heir to the throne. The Crown Prince.
However, as long as he had not inherited the throne, everything was still possible. Even if he had already inherited the throne, he could still overthrow it, right? Therefore, the competition between the princes was extremely intense.
Apart from that, there were also five princes with strong armies. For example, Seventh Prince, who wanted to recruit Ji Chen, and the Fifth Prince, who was plotting a rebellion!
The Fifth Prince was a lot bigger than Seventh Prince, and he was thirty thousand years older than the Crown Prince. Although his talent was not as good as the Crown Prince of Truth, he was much stronger than the Crown Prince of Truth, which was why he was so ambitious!
The Fifth Prince smiled and said, "Not bad. Valiant Marquis is young and talented. Now that he has the support of the Divine Family, he has indeed gone through a lot of trouble to investigate a major rebellion case."
"I have nothing to say about what the Crown Prince said." Ji Chen took the tea from the Fifth Prince. The Dao Sense Tea was a famous tea in Great Dao Holy Land. At that time, Ji Chen had drunk a lot of it.
That was because he was a Golden Tyrant Body, and had a close relationship with Great Dao Holy Land. However, it would be difficult for others to drink it. Even Sacred Lords and Holy Emperor had to be saved. That was why the Fifth Prince took it out to entertain Ji Chen.
Ji Chen wasn't afraid of poison, so he picked it up and drank it. The tea was bright and fragrant, and there was also the taste of anemic iron in the bitter taste. It made people want to taste it, but they couldn't stop themselves.
"Prince, you called me here today, so it shouldn't just be a bar." After Ji Chen drank a cup of tea, he said with a deep meaning, "The Emperor brought me here before I met His Majesty, it should be because he has something important to discuss."
The Fifth Prince was stunned at first, then he smiled and said, "Talking to smart people is simple! That's right, I do have something to discuss with Lord Marquis! I wonder how the investigation of Lord Marquis's rebellion is going? "
" The truth has been revealed. " Ji Chen said proudly, "Including the prince behind the scenes, you, Yue King, and the Right Prime Minister. The rest are also related to more than a dozen grandmasters and dukes. I have a lot of Great Generals, Great Generals, and hundreds of Merit Points. "
"The marquis is really good." The Fifth Prince poured another cup of tea for Ji Chen. "Then may I ask if Lord Marquis will not report this matter to His Majesty? Or should I change it?"
"What the Prince means is that you want me to collude with you?" Ji Chen had a profound smile on his face.
Seeing that Ji Chen didn't refuse, the Fifth Prince was overjoyed. "It depends on who said it. When we win and I take the throne, it won't be called 'colluding with each other' anymore, it will be called 'splitting the sky and earth'!"
"Then what benefits can Your Highness give me?" Ji Chen said matter-of-factly. "Don't let me be so loyal. I won't do anything without benefits."
"Of course. Whether it is wealth, status, or beauty, I can give them all to you!"
The Fifth Prince said seriously, "I can promise Master Hou that once we succeed, we will give you 50 billion Emperor Grade Spirit Stone, three Emperor Grade Medicinal Herbs, and ten Martial Immortal Grade Great Alchemy Pills!"
"In addition, Master Hou's seat will also be moved up. The Blue Bird Guard Great Commander that was granted special permission by the Emperor and was issued after the execution should be surnamed Wang!"
"Also, once the matter is done, how can a mere Valiant Marquis be worthy of Brother Wang's title? The title of King must be conferred to a prince! What do you think, Brother Wang?"
"Aiyo, not bad. Once the rebellion starts, I can be conferred the title of King. At that time, my violet gold treasure chest mission will be completed!" Ji Chen cursed in his heart. He almost had the impulse to agree on the spot.
However, he still forcefully cut off this impulse. Although rebellion could obtain the greatest benefits in the shortest time, the risk was really too great. It could be said that he would die without a doubt!
Although the Fifth Prince had already established a connection with the Devil Clan, Ji Chen knew how terrifying Truth Holy Emperor was. This man might not have the strongest cultivation base, but he had the backing of the old ancestor, divine weapon, and divine formation!
Conquering a coup at this time was akin to courting death. It was obvious that the Fifth Prince's ambition was too great, and he had yet to see through this barrier.
There was no problem in fighting for the crown prince among the princes, and the Emperor would enjoy the benefits. However, if they wanted to fight for the throne with the Emperor, they would have to face a merciless strike.
Seeing that Ji Chen didn't say anything, the Fifth Prince wasn't in a hurry. He was enjoying his tea. Although his attitude was relaxed, his heart had already tensed to the extreme. Once Ji Chen said no, he would make a move immediately!
Finally, Ji Chen said, "The benefits promised by His Highness are indeed good. I, Wang, am not a person who doesn't know what's good for me, but I still have to let Your Highness down because I'm not optimistic about Your Highness's great cause."
"Oh? Do you think I will lose?" The Fifth Prince's eyes revealed an extremely dangerous glint. "That means there's no room for negotiation. Attack!"
A light screen appeared in front of the Fifth Prince. This light screen turned into a sphere and wrapped around Ji Chen.
"Wang Ziqi, you really don't know how to appreciate favors! Since that's the case, I can only kill you. If you don't work for me, you must die for me!"
The Fifth Prince stood up and looked down at Ji Chen disdainfully. "Master Hou, don't think about struggling anymore. This grand formation is a super grand formation in my prince's mansion. It is a grand formation at the peak of the Martial Immortal realm!"
"Even an ordinary Martial Immortal will be trapped once trapped in it. It will be slowly refined in the end! When you die into nothingness, this king will be able to call himself Zhen!"
The Fifth Prince swaggered off. A faint smile had unknowingly appeared on Ji Chen's face. He didn't say anything, but looked at the powerful formation.
The ball of light gradually changed, turning into a furnace that trapped Ji Chen and refined him. The combined trap and killing formation was really powerful. A perfect Martial Saint warrior would die instantly!
It seemed like the Fifth Prince attached great importance to Ji Chen. He knew that Ji Chen had a precious treasure that could protect him, which was why he activated the formation. However, Ji Chen didn't care about him at all. He immediately hid in Fire Emperor Palace.
Not even a Martial Saint could see through the light screen of the grand formation. Therefore, the white-haired old eunuch who was guarding the formation didn't know what had happened. He was still smiling complacently.
