Chapter 276 Xu Tianran wants to have his own bear biscuits (page 12)
A piece of news jumped from the southern seaside over the Jingyang Mountains, across the fertile plains, and arrived in Mingdu.
Prince Regent's House, Tea Room.
"Former Crown Prince Xu He?"
Xu Tianran's gloomy eyes raised slightly, and this name brought back bad memories for him.
"What's wrong with this guy?"
Zhong Liwu asked at the same time, putting the tea utensil at hand under his nose and sniffing.
Xu Tianran slowly explained.
Many years ago, Xu Tianran's father was not the Emperor of the Sun and Moon, but at that time, Xu Tianran's father was just like Xu Tianran now, ambitious and unscrupulous.
The emperor at that time had few heirs and gave birth to seven daughters in a row. At that time, Xu Tianran's father still thought that he would succeed to the throne as the emperor's younger brother in the future.
Because Xu Tianran's father was the best and most powerful prince at the time, and at the same time, it was not a woman's turn to take the position of Emperor of the Sun and Moon.
Until the old emperor was forty-eight years old, he had a son.
The old emperor couldn't bear it anymore, so he immediately named him Xu He and made him the prince.
After all, the current emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire is He Caitou's uncle.
Xu Tianran's father was naturally dissatisfied when he found out.
So when Prince Xu He was nine years old, Xu Tianran's father suddenly led his army to Mingdu and flanked the Qing emperor.
After a series of great purges, Xu Tianran's father assumed the position of emperor with an iron fist as the sole heir to the royal family.
It was announced that the emperor, queen and three unmarried princesses died suddenly of "food poisoning".
but……
Prince Xu He,
On the contrary, it has never been found.
The former prince became a source of worry for Xu Tianran's father.
It's not that I'm afraid of him, it's just that he looks disgusting.
"Prince Regent, don't you think this so-called Prince Xu He is fake?"
Zhong Liwu said calmly:
"Although the nobles of Haiyue City have expressed their support, they are talking empty words. This kind of statement is also deceiving the ignorant people."
"Of course I know." Xu Tianran gently stroked the paper with his fingers, "Even if it is true, is there anyone else in Mingdu who will follow Xu He and rebel?"
Xu Tianran's father had been on the throne for so many years, and there had been a purge that year. How could anyone be so stupidly loyal to Xu He anymore?
"However, Xu He's identity is not recognized, and it is said to the outside world that it was a trick directed and performed by Xue Bei." Xu Tianran said.
"The key is to look at the Emperor Dragon Soul Mentor Group." Zhong Liwu looked at the regent, "According to the spies, Xue Bei has a close relationship with Chi Douluo. I plan to follow him."
Xu Tianran smiled calmly. Chi Douluo could be said to be a serious problem for the Holy Spirit Sect. Last time in the Mingdu Mountains, Ye Xishui was seriously injured.
"can."
The matter was settled in a few words, and the powerful never had to discuss it with others.
Xu Tianran talked about another thing and said, "Master, I wonder if the elixir is ready?"
Ye Xishui knows how to refine human elixirs, and Zhong Liwu can do the same.
"It's still missing the main ingredient."
When Zhong Liwu heard Xu Tianran ask about this matter, a wicked smile appeared on his face, "I just don't know which highness has this blessing."
The method of human elixir requires people to combine heavenly materials and earthly treasures to refine the elixir, which can not only replenish vitality, but also improve one's own cultivation qualifications.
However, this person is not chosen casually, but must be a blood relative.
Asking for Rendan is tantamount to forcing people to kill their relatives.
But Xu Tianran didn't care at all. Several figures appeared in his mind, but he said: "I wonder if the National Master has anything to recommend?"
Zhong Liwu tried jokingly: "The closer the relationship is with the person Rendan needs, the better. Why don't you let Your Majesty come and make this main medicine?"
Emperor of the Sun and Moon: ...Okay, okay, father is kind and son is filial, right?
Xu Tianran waved his hand. Although he was ambitious, he was not a madman. He absolutely did not want to do such a treasonous thing as patricide.
"No." Xu Tianran refused.
"That's Xu Tianhe. He and His Highness the Regent are cousins by blood, which can be considered a great complement."
Zhong Liwu said another name.
Xu Tianran was a little moved, but after feeling the feeling of emptiness in his lower body, his face turned dark.
Damn...
If you still have...
"No." Xu Tianran still refused.
"Ok?"
Zhongli and Wuxin said that you were playing with me and wanted me to refer to it, even if you said two things in a row, you wouldn't be killed.
"If Your Highness is kind-hearted, then use some other tonics. Human elixir is not suitable for Your Highness."
Zhongliwu said sarcastically.
"None of them are suitable." Xu Tianran said, another person flashed in his mind.
Xu Tianzhen.
"His Majesty is already old, and it is indeed filial piety for the Regent to want him to enjoy his old age.
But although Xu Tianhe and the regent were cousins, he was lazy in cultivation and had noble blood.
This Xiaoyao Prince,
It is a good material for making a human elixir. "
Xu Tianran stared at Zhong Liwu, "He can't do it precisely because his cultivation level is not high and his bloodline is noble."
Although Zhong Liwu is an evil soul master who has cultivated himself to be neither human nor ghost, but from a physiological point of view, Zhong Liwu is still a healthy person, so he does not understand Xu Tianran's difficulties at all.
Of course, Zhong Liwu was also an honest man, and he didn't think at all about Xu Tianran having to find someone to borrow seeds when he needed the prince.
"Xu Tianzhen doesn't know what to do?"
"Princess Xu Tianzhen, doesn't His Highness usually dote on her the most?" Zhong Liwu couldn't say he was surprised.
The emperor's royal family was ruthless, but Xu Tianran was usually nice to Xu Tianzhen, so Zhong Liwu wouldn't mention the little princess at all just now.
I didn't expect that Xu Tianran did.
"I really can't bear to part with it," Xu Tianran said, "It's just that among the people with a similar bloodline to me, she is the only one who makes medicine, so it won't have any major changes to my future plans."
Xu Tianran is now the regent, and will almost certainly be the emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire in the future.
Therefore, Xu Tianran considers things from a long-term perspective.
Patricide and regicide are of no help to Xu Tianran. He is now the regent, almost like the emperor. Xu Tianran is now in charge of the Sun and Moon Empire.
On the contrary, if Xu Tianran really did this, he would give others an excuse if the incident came to light.
As for Xu Tianhe, if Xu Tianran becomes emperor in the future, he will definitely need to find a successor.
Before Xue Bei traveled through time, someone joked that I was barren and my family had no throne to inherit.
But the Xu Tianran family really wanted someone to inherit the throne of the Sun and Moon Empire and the empire that Xu Tianran had built.
If the emperor has no heirs, his later years will inevitably be filled with turmoil between the government and the public.
So no matter who the queen is, Xu Tianhe will be the seed bank in the future.
It won’t be too late to kill him then.
The only person left who has a similar bloodline to Xu Tianran is Xu Tiantian.
Although Xu Tianran usually dotes on her and can tolerate this little princess's unruly and willful ways, in the final analysis, she is just that.
