Chapter 470 Candidate for the Crown Prince
In the Ice Luang Palace of the Imperial City of Beihan Kingdom, a ray of light flashed, and Li Muran and Mu Li appeared in front of everyone.
"Li'er, you're here at the right time." After seeing Mu Li, the King of Chu said happily: "Just just now, my father and all the uncles are talking about you to save the princes and protect the Dharma. You should tell me the situation at that time.
"Yes" Mu Li respectfully bowed to all the real body existences one by one, and then said loudly: "After entering the fourth floor of the imperial tomb space, I immediately discovered the aura of the space beast. After tracking, I discovered that strange ice palace. Later, I accidentally discovered that there was something strange about the ice palace, so..."
Mu Li talked endlessly about the words he had prepared in his heart, telling how he discovered the flaws of the demon cultivator, how he defeated those demon cultivators, and how he used the ice barrier talisman to rescue the prince's guardian when the demon cultivator self-destructed the formation.
The whole process almost involved Li Muran, but just said, "Protector Zhao also helped the younger generation kill the demon cultivators" and exposed it lightly.
This is also the request made by Li Muran. He does not want to be involved in the struggle in the Northern Han Kingdom. It is best to be an ordinary guardian who is unknown and has no attention.
Mu Li's statement is basically the same as the previous statements of Gauwei and others, but it is more detailed.
"From this point, it must be a super demonic sect in the Middle Earth power that was striking a trick." King Han said with a dark face: "I didn't expect that King You was actually an insider sent by the Middle Earth power. No wonder he didn't send his children into the imperial tomb, but sent his so-called adopted sons - it turned out that these adopted sons were simply dead men of the Demon Sect.
The Northern Emperor also looked solemn. He sighed lightly and said, "I arranged this trip to the imperial tomb to select outstanding children and make them crown princes. However, I unexpectedly gave the Demonic Sect of the Central Earth country an opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity. If it were not for the great nephew Chu Li's extraordinary achievements and rescued the prince's guardian, I am afraid that the Beihan Kingdom will lose a lot of talents. This is because I was not supervising and should bear the main responsibility."
"Why should I blame myself?" said the King of Chu: "No one expected that King You was actually an internal support sent by the Central Earth country. This is difficult to defend against. No wonder Lord Bei. Besides, this matter has been resolved now and there is no injury to anyone. Overall, it is still smooth."
The other kings also agreed to exonerate the Northern Emperor.
The Northern Emperor nodded and sighed: "Although I am the Northern Emperor, I have actually been unwilling to do things in the world for many years. If I can set the crown prince whom I hope for this time, it is time to abdicate and give way to the wise."
The kings persuaded each other a few more times, and the Northern Emperor waved his hand and said with a change of topic: "Are all the princes and guardians back safely?"
A Dharma King said, "Because of such an incident, we discussed the early end of the imperial tomb, and sent some juniors to the imperial tomb to convey information and recall all the princes and guardians. Now most of the princes and guardians have returned, and there are still the last few people, who should be on the fifth or sixth floor space, and they will be notified later."
"End the trip to the imperial tomb early?" Mu Li was stunned when he heard this: "How can the winner be decided in this selection of crown prince?"
"We have discussed it. This assessment will be invalidated. In the future, we will select outstanding children as candidates for the crown prince by other methods." Han Wang said with a smile.
The two princes and four guardians of the Han Palace were originally progressing smoothly, but they were trapped by the demon cultivator and returned early, so the proposal to be invalidated was first proposed by King Han and others; because there were many princes involved in this matter, many princes agreed with this proposal, and the Northern Emperor did not object.
Mu Li frowned and said, "But, the younger generation has entered the seventh floor and has also found the Ice Jade Chalcedony to complete the mission of this trip to the imperial tomb."
"What?" Everyone was shocked.
King Han asked in a daze: "According to the guardians of the princes, less than an hour ago, the nephew Chu Li had just rescued them in the fourth floor area. Did the nephew enter the seventh floor from the fourth floor within just one hour and immediately found the Ice Chopin?"
"It's exactly" Mu Li said, then took out a cold jade box from his arms and slowly uncovered the seal talisman on it.
Then, a cold light flew out of the jade box and turned into a transparent ice spirit, which was the ice chalcedony found in the seventh floor.
Everyone looked at each other, and they all showed suspicion.
King Han was shocked and suddenly sneered, "Brother Chu King is a good method. He must have found a piece of ice chalcedony in advance, and then let Nephew Chu Li bring it into the imperial tomb."
"There is no such thing." The King of Chu shook his head repeatedly: "Ice Jade Chopin was only born in the imperial tomb. What kind of virtue does Chu have? How can he get this treasure?"
"It's good that this piece of ice chalcedony is the one that Lao Chen puts in the seventh floor space," said Beidi seriously: "This piece of ice chalcedony has become spiritual, so it is easy to distinguish it from other ice chalcedonys. I won't miss it."
The King of Chu was overjoyed and said, "Haha, it seems that the dog has completed the assessment task of the trip to the imperial tomb, stand out from all the princes, and should become the candidate for the crown prince."
King Han shook his head and said, "Brother King Chu, we have clearly discussed and decided before. This assessment was abolished because of the involvement of the demon cultivator, which caused many princes to lose their qualifications for competition. This selection is not fair and cannot be counted."
The King of Chu snorted coldly and said tit-for-tat: "The Dogzi just saved two princes of Brother Han from the demon cultivator for life. Now the King of Han is dying and wants to deprive the dog of the dog of the right to win. I'm afraid it's a bit of kindness to repay the hatred. If I had known this, the Dogzi should have let the prince protectors die on their own. Why bother to rescue him?"
"These are two things," King Han said relentlessly: "I will offer generous gifts to thank you for your nephew Chu Li's life-saving grace in the future, but the selection of the position of crown prince must be fair and just to convince the public; otherwise, even if you forcibly ascend to the position of crown prince, you will not receive support from everyone."
Both sides have different opinions, and it is obviously difficult to compromise.
The Northern Emperor frowned, and there were also many internal conflicts among the Eighteen Kings of Northern Cold. If this caused huge differences, it would give the Central Earth great power a chance to take advantage of the immortal world.
"Let's do this," Emperor Bei interrupted the quarrel between King Chu and others and said, "For fairness, it is indeed necessary to hold a new assessment and selection. However, Chu Li's nephew first saved people first and made great contributions; then found Bing Yuchalcedony, successfully completed the task, and deserved to be the candidate for the crown prince. Lao I decided to set up a total of three candidates for the crown prince. The three of them followed Lao I for a period of practice, and then evaluated and selected again, and finally determined the position of the crown prince. Chu Li's nephew made great contributions, so he could directly become one of the three candidates for the crown princes, and the other two places would be decided in the next selection. I wonder if you have any objections to this proposal?"
The King of Chu knew that with his royal palace, it was difficult to beat the heroes, so he stopped arguing. He nodded and said, "Since it is the proposal of Lord Beidi, I should follow it."
King Han and others also knew that it was not possible to completely erase Mu Li's contribution to this trip. After pondering for a while, they all agreed.
Mu Li put away the ice chalcedony, and his expression was filled with joy and sorrow.
What is happy is that he has stood out and became one of the three candidate crown princes. One-third of the chances have been ascended to the position of crown prince, and the chances have increased significantly than before entering the imperial tomb; what is worry is that there will be two more candidates competing with him, and it is likely that they will be the children of several great palaces such as Han Prince's Mansion.
Not long after, all the princes and guardians returned from the imperial tombs. This trip to the imperial tombs ended.
Everyone discussed the origin of King You and the Demonic Sect. The Northern Emperor and the Kings also issued orders to imprison and arrest all the people in the King You's mansion. However, King You had already arranged it, and the core direct descendants had already left Beihan Kingdom. The remaining guards and guards were unaware of it, and it was probably difficult to find out what they were.
However, from today on, the Eighteen Kings of Beihan have lost one King of You, leaving only the Seventeen Kings of Beihan.
Many princes have empty magic powers and urgently need to be recuperated and recuperated, so they have to wait for a while for the next assessment and selection. The Seventeen Kings of Beihan and their disciples left the imperial city and returned to their palaces.
In the next period of time, the King of Chu's mansion was decorated with lights and celebrated. This time, Mu Li shined, won a lot of reputation for the King of Chu's mansion, and became one of the three candidates for the position of crown prince. The King of Chu was very satisfied with this.
The King of Chu called Mu Li, Li Muran and Gao Wei to the inner hall and said, "You two guardians help Li Er win, make great contributions, and each has its own reward."
"Thank you, Lord Chu" Li Muran and others respectfully thanked him, and then took the storage bag thrown to them by the King of Chu.
The King of Chu praised him a few more words and asked Li Muran and the others to leave, leaving only Mu Li.
"Li Er, you did not disappoint your father," said the King of Chu happily: "You have obtained the ice chalcedony, and you can refine it. This treasure will help you a lot when you refine it, and your father will personally help you."
"This..." Mu Li said embarrassedly: "To be honest, the child has decided to give this treasure to Protector Zhao."
"What" King Chu was shocked: "You gave such a treasure directly to your subordinates? Even if you want to win people's hearts, you don't have to take out such a treasure."
Mu Li shook his head and said, "This is not only a win over the hearts of the people, but also a promise from the Child to Protector Zhao. To be honest, the one who saved the prince this time was not the Child, but someone else."
"Is there someone else?" The King of Chu flew away from his seat after hearing this: "It's not you, is it the Protector Zhao in the middle stage of the Dharma Act?"
