Turning misfortunes into good fortune starts with seizing the direct descendants in Kowloon

Chapter 23 Monitoring the harem, the carp crosses the dragon gate (please read it!)
  Lu Mingyuan had been tinkering with the little bloody man for a long time, and it took him a while to figure out how to use it.

First of all, there must be no way to help him practice for the time being. After all, the villain's body does not have meridians and Dantian, but it can swallow things, control its walking, and whatever it eats can eventually be fed back to the main body.

The second function is that he can use the immature blood glutton clone as a moving eye, just like a camera, which can observe the villain's perspective and hear sounds.

However, the range is limited and can only be effective within one mile, which is about five hundred meters.

He has already controlled a blood gluttonous clone and arrived at a carved building and jade pavilion outside the cold palace.

In the courtyard, one could hear the laughter of the concubines and the whispers of the palace ladies coming and going, including all the gossip of the harem.

"The imperial guard in front of Guanglong Palace is so strong. He was really happy at midnight last night."

"Really? But I passed by this morning and I didn't see anyone."

"It seems something happened and he went to the military camp."

Lu Mingyuan's brows furrowed as he listened in the distance. He didn't expect these palace ladies to be so imprudent in their private lives.

But if you think about it carefully, it's no wonder that after being locked up in the harem for decades, there are always people who can't control their lust and want to satisfy their physiological needs.

Controlling the Blood Glutton clone, he moved towards other places. He didn't take the main road for fear of being discovered. It was okay if there was no one around. When he met someone, he could only move little by little against the corner.

Soon they came to a luxurious hall, and there was a mournful sound coming from the window.

"The Holy One hasn't been to my place for more than half a year. I'm really anxious!"

"Sister, don't you know, this month, apart from going to the Queen's, the Holy One has hardly been to any other concubines."

"Could it be that the Holy One wants to make the eldest prince the crown prince?"

"Shh, don't dare say nonsense."

Lu Mingyuan, who was far away in the Qingzhu Palace, could clearly hear the conversation between the two nobles and talented people inside the vermilion palace wall.

He rolled his eyes and thought slightly.

In the past month, state affairs have been busy, and the father did not have time to waste time in the harem, but he only went to the queen's palace.

Could it be that we really want to make the eldest prince the crown prince?

Soon, two Imperial Guards on duty passed by and walked along the path, chatting:
  "There has been a war recently. Brother Liu has the idea of ​​joining the army?"

"It is said to be some kind of island country in the east. Maybe you can go and get some credit."

"My Great Yan army has never been defeated. Your Majesty will conquer the enemy personally this time, and we will definitely be able to defeat the enemy and return!"

Are we sending troops again? Is it because of what happened in Changle Palace?

Lu Mingyuan thought to himself, very puzzled.

Why is my father so crazy? He wants to destroy an island country to the east and go out personally. The sixteen generals of Great Yan Yong'an are all seventh-level warriors at least at the Grand Master level, and there are many top fifth-level warriors among them. But Use it as a handsome talent.

During the Yong'an period, Emperor Dayan's army of military commanders expanded to an unprecedented level. There were as many as seven princes. For the first time, a Zhenbei King appeared. Even his own nine Both sons only have the title of county king. This shows how important and inevitable the emergence of this throne is.

Lu Mingyuan remembered that the King of Zhenbei only had one daughter, and she was married to the eldest prince. The royal family's marriage with her was naturally for the sake of the stability of the political power, and the two families were married to each other.

Perhaps it was because he had no male heirs that his father was willing to give him a royal title.

Thinking about it this way, maybe it is really possible that the eldest prince will inherit the throne.

Lu Mingyuan didn't know what kind of aircraft Emperor Yong'an was working on.

Since last night, there has been no sound of pursuit in the palace. This guy Lu Mingkong was assassinated. Is this incident just over?

Lu Mingyuan inquired all afternoon, but did not hear any useful information.

However, the ability to monitor is a big help, as it allows you to know what is happening in the outside world at intervals.

After practicing martial arts in the morning and monitoring the harem in the afternoon, Lu Mingyuan returned to the main hall exhausted both physically and mentally. He lay on the bed and relaxed his mind. He felt dizzy and didn't know day or night.

When I woke up again, it was already dusk outside.

The capital city in the evening was filled with the smell of human fireworks, and smoke rose over the imperial kitchen, preparing to start cooking.

Lu Mingyuan got up from the bed, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a beautiful woman beside him.

Yun Qinghe sat on a chair, leaning on the table with his elbows and supporting his chin in his hands, carefully flipping through a copy of "The Great Flame Illustrated Chronicle" with curious eyes and blinking eyelashes from time to time.

"woke up?"

Suddenly, Yun Qinghe closed the book, turned his head and raised his eyebrows.

"Where's Ziyun?"

Lu Mingyuan pinched his eyebrows, looking like he hadn't woken up.

"Go to the imperial dining room and line up. I heard that you are very good at eating. Can you eat ten times a day?" Yun Qinghe asked curiously, holding his jade-like chin.

Lu Mingyuan did not answer her question, but said calmly:
  "Miss Yun, how is your recovery from your injury? When will you leave?"

Yun Qinghe frowned upon hearing this, with a black line on his face.

"I've only been here for a day, and you're going to drive me away?"

Lu Mingyuan sighed and said, "I'm afraid something will change if I stay here. Your whereabouts make me very worried."

He felt that although this woman's hair was long, her knowledge was relatively short, and she lacked some of the worst plans to deal with the evil in people's hearts.

If it weren't for the silence of Liuyao Turtle Armor, he really suspected that one day a group of people would suddenly enter the cold palace and hack him to death. As a Taoist disciple, Yun Qinghe would be fine, but he did not feel safe. So far, he has not understood where the Taoist door mentioned in the hexagram is.

Yun Qinghe said in a rather joking tone: "Are you so afraid of death?"

"It's not that I'm afraid of death, it's that I'm cautious." Lu Mingyuan said seriously.

Yun Qinghe obviously knew something inside, and said with a faint smile:

"Don't worry, even if I am exposed, your father will not do anything to you, just like you don't hate Emperor Yong'an. Aren't you curious as to why your father didn't take any action against the Taoist sect?"

When Lu Mingyuan heard this, he frowned and asked, "Why?"

Yun Qinghe took a step back and said in a leisurely tone: "This is a secret, I can't tell you."

Lu Mingyuan was a little speechless. He felt that sometimes this Taoist nun was like a child who had not grown up. She liked to tease him when nothing happened, and sometimes she liked to show off.

By the way, shouldn’t those who practice Taoism should have a pure nature, without sadness or joy?

Seeing his depressed look, Yun Qinghe put a smile on his lips, then coughed again and said seriously:
  "It's true that you and I have similar positions, but you are the son of Emperor Dayan after all. We have different positions on some things. Naturally, I can't tell you. You can know so much now because I am confident and hope You know that."

Lu Mingyuan shook his head secretly in his heart, feeling that the other party had placed his position too high. He thought for a moment and responded: "Originally, I couldn't figure out why my father didn't attack the Taoist sect. After you did this, I figured it out."

"true and false?"

Yun Qinghe looked unbelieving.

Lu Mingyuan smiled faintly: "It's nothing more than a conflict between the interests of my father and the three religions, especially your Taoist sect. He doesn't dare to provoke you."

Combined with the previous hexagram information, there are disputes among the three religions and suspicion among Taoists.

He seemed to have vaguely guessed it.

It was probably due to the pressure from the Taoist sect that Emperor Yong'an did not dare to act rashly for a while.

Based on what he heard during the day, he vented his anger on Xiao Guo.

Yun Qinghe was secretly shocked when he heard his explanation.

Unexpectedly, the sixth prince was much more flexible than expected.

After a day of wandering around the palace, she realized that the sixth prince was a dandy who was addicted to beauty, and his reputation in the palace was not good.

But looking at it now, it doesn’t quite fit.

Perhaps, indulging in beauty has nothing to do with the quality of the brain itself?

However, the internal affairs of the royal family have nothing to do with her. As long as she recovers from her injuries and completes her mission, she will almost be able to go back.

"what."

Yun Qinghe accidentally discovered that Lu Mingyuan's realm had changed, and his expression was surprised: "Have you broken through to the third realm of marrow cleansing? It's quite fast."

But she wasn't too surprised, she just felt a little strange. Her spiritual consciousness quickly swept over Lu Mingyuan and asked:
  "Your qualifications are not too bad. Why haven't you practiced Taoism since you were a child?"

"Why practice Taoism?"

Lu Mingyuan asked in response, after reading "Dayan School Army Seven Realms Martial Art", he had a basic understanding of the seven martial arts realms, but he really didn't understand other ways.

Yun Qinghe stared into his eyes and explained seriously: "There are so many martial arts cultivators in the world, and it's not without reason. Compared with Taoist cultivators, Confucian cultivators, and Buddhist cultivators, it is a line that is less demanding on qualifications, so there are many people who practice it, but Most of the realms are not high, and a large part of the reason is because martial arts are very limited, and many martial artists are stuck in the Dragon Tribulation, unable to take another step forward."

"What is Dragon Tribulation?"

Lu Mingyuan looked confused.

Yun Qinghe stretched out his palm, and a wisp of cyan gas appeared in his palm, forming a scene of a sea of ​​clouds and a sky gate, with a goldfish swimming under the huge gate.

"Dragon Tribulation, the full name is 'Carp Leaps over the Dragon Gate'. If a warrior in the world wants to break through the ninth level of the Dragon Gate, he needs to survive this calamity and reach the fifth level of the Dragon Gate. The spiritual energy in the Sea Viewing Realm gradually condenses and sublimates, and begins to feed back to the physical body. , the abundant spiritual energy deposited in the Dantian finally condenses into an essence breath, flowing upstream in the body, like a carp jumping over a dragon gate. If it succeeds, it will turn into a dragon, if it fails, it will be covered with bruises.

If the monk fails to pass the level, he will fall back to the realm of Guanhai. If he succeeds, the martial artist can live longer. Ordinary ninth-level martial artists can live up to 500 years old, comparable to Taoist cultivators. But as far as I know, 90% of martial artists can live longer. Stuck in this realm, only 10% of warriors can break through the shackles and successfully jump over the Dragon Gate.

This is also the reason why most martial arts cultivators are so short of lifespan. If they cannot cross the Dragon Gate, then the awe-inspiring King Kong body behind them, the feathers that cross the void, and the heavens and humans stopping at the end, are all just a dream. "

Lu Mingyuan was confused and shocked after hearing this.

The sea-viewing realm, the dragon gate realm, the vajra realm, the ascension realm, and the heavenly and human realm.

Every realm in the middle fifth level is like a natural chasm, completely different from the lower seven realms.

After talking so much, Yun Qinghe felt much better. He suddenly changed his tone and smiled slightly: "But Taoism is different. Nature is in harmony with the aura of heaven and earth. All it takes is to overcome the calamity and condense the elixir. Although it is not easy, there is a chance At least it’s better than the 10% chance of martial arts.”

"At your current age, you have missed the best period of cultivating Taoism. It is too late for you to cultivate."

"I walked around the palace. The commander of your imperial army is an eighth-level martial artist in the sea-viewing realm. He failed to cross the Dragon Gate, so he may be like this for the rest of his life."

Yun Qinghe suddenly thought of what happened in Changle Palace, put away his smile, and said solemnly: "However, there are still top experts in your palace. This is beyond my expectation."

She didn't care whether Lu Mingyuan really understood or not. She sat on the chair and glanced at him:
  "That's pretty much the level of martial arts. In your case, I feel that it's enough to reach the level of master. If you reach the level of master, it will be very difficult to go further."

"You haven't said anything about going to the third level yet."

Lu Mingyuan reminded.

Yun Qinghe shook his head: "It's useless to talk too much. The upper three levels are called the realm of immortality in Taoism. They are usually Taoist Buddhas, Confucian temple saints and other legendary figures. Their lifespans can last for thousands of years."

"But you don't have to be discouraged. Manpower is limited after all, even saints are no exception. Living every day well is more important than anything else."
