Chapter 266: The Empress Dowager???
Chapter 266: The Empress Dowager???
After thinking for a moment, he felt that such a scene was really an eyesore and a loss of dignity for a great country, and with a thought, a ripple of energy in the hall quickly spread to the entire hall, and the zombies that had originally had livid faces changed in the blink of an eye. The cyan color on their skin faded, and they turned back into the elegant literati they had been in life. At the same time, the gloomy murals on the originally dull walls began to gradually be dyed with colorful colors. Against the backdrop of these colors, the portraits with drooping faces also became "sunny". As the divine power swept through, the entire hall immediately became magnificent.
Zagreus really looked much more comfortable this time, and his "loving ministers" seemed to be more eager to work, and then they remembered their business.
"Someone go and invite the Empress Dowager and my fourth brother over. You should know where he is. She brought my younger brother with her. I want to see what extraordinary abilities this guy has that make so many people want to support him to take the throne."
The black-armored guards from before bowed and left the hall. They all had memories from before and naturally knew where the Empress Dowager was hiding.
"Okay, each of you should do your job. If you have any questions, just ask Wang Shun. From now on, he is the prime minister of our Nanzhao Kingdom. All matters should be reported to him!"
"Yes!" Those who had restored their appearance also became more human, and they started working like normal people.
Zagreus sat quietly on the dragon throne, looking at the memorials in his hand meticulously, but only Wang Shun who was standing beside him knew that the memorials in his majesty's hand had not been turned over for more than ten minutes. At this time, there were many scripts under his feet.
"The Empress Dowager has arrived!"
These were the servants who had problems in the palace before. Those without problems were released from the palace. However, now these people have been replaced in a strange way. They all have memories of their previous lives, so when they pass on information to the outside world every day, they pretend to be real people.
Zagrous looked up and saw an old woman in elegant clothes, holding the hand of a child who was less than ten years old, slowly walking into the hall. The child was very pretty and looked very smart. Even after entering the hall, he was not afraid. Instead, he looked at Zagrous arrogantly, as if he was the emperor of Nanzhao.
The Empress Dowager was also like this. Looking at the ministers sitting around her, especially the familiar faces, she thought that the Shuiyue Dynasty's plan had succeeded and she was just going through the motions.
"I heard that the new emperor is immoral..."
"I thought so. It turns out that you are not of Nanzhao bloodline!"
Zagreus interrupted the Queen Mother and looked at the child with interest. The child frowned and seemed to want to say something, but the Queen Mother clenched her hand and pulled the child behind her.
"How dare you! Even the late emperor didn't dare to speak to me like this, so how could I allow you to be so presumptuous? I think your majesty has had enough of being the emperor. The fourth prince is both virtuous and talented, and he is indeed more suitable to be the emperor than you!"
The Queen Mother's face turned pale as she finished speaking, staring at Zagros.
When Zagreus first saw this child, what should he say? There was a dragon lurking behind him, but this appearance was not the fortune of the Nanzhao Kingdom, and his blood was not the blood of the previous emperor. Although there was a dragon on his body, in terms of momentum, the entire Nanzhao Kingdom combined was not as strong as him.
Obviously, the fourth prince is not an ordinary person. Zagreus sees that his bloodline resonates with that of the Shuiyue Dynasty. Could it be that the person from the Shuiyue Dynasty cheated on the late emperor and planned to use the chicken to lay eggs, so that this dragon can transform into a dragon directly with the help of the national fortune of Nanzhao!
It seems that the Empress Dowager and the Wei family all have the blood of the Shuiyue Dynasty. They are also family spies. He said that Wei Yuan, that idiot, was able to guard the border of Nanzhao with such little strength. It was probably all because of the Shuiyue Dynasty cooperating with him to help him climb to the top step by step. No wonder the Shuiyue Dynasty sent so many people here this time, just to help the Fourth Prince ascend the throne. As long as he ascends the throne and then issues an edict, the Nanzhao Kingdom will change its master in an instant. What a good plan!
The Queen Mother saw that Zagreus had not spoken a word and was constantly looking at them. She looked even more unhappy. She did not notice the strange atmosphere around her and directly said, "Fengji, what do you mean by this? Do you even want to question the dead emperor?"
"Shut up right there, don't take advantage of your age in front of me. I am the late emperor, I won't fall for your tricks. I asked you to come here this time to ask you to hand over the Phoenix Seal. If you keep talking nonsense, I will just give you a decent punishment!"
Zagreus flashed and appeared beside the Grand Empress Dowager. He touched the Fourth Prince's head with one hand and probed his mind to feel it. "It is indeed the bloodline of the Shuiyue Dynasty. He has inherited the cultivation method of the Shuiyue Dynasty in his body. He is about to enter the Dao at such a young age. He has good aptitude at such a young age!"
At this time, Zagreus thought of his younger brother Fengqi. Although his qualifications were also excellent, he was much weaker than the fourth prince. There was no way around it. This was an advantage determined by his natural bloodline.
"you!"
Queen Mother Wei immediately tried to knock Zagros' hand away, but Zagros dodged and carried the fourth prince back to the throne.
At this moment, the fourth prince immediately mobilized the pitiful amount of spiritual energy in his body and shouted loudly: "Let me go, you bitch..."
Before the Fourth Prince finished his curse, his eyes rolled up immediately. Zagreus directly traced back to the imperial city of the Shuiyue Dynasty through his bloodline. At this moment, through this bloodline, he saw the Shuiyue Emperor sitting in the fortune of the dynasty. At this moment, he was swallowing up the huge fortune of the dynasty. Zagreus was delighted. This was obtained without any effort. He simply noted down the direction, but then the Shuiyue Emperor's eyes suddenly opened and kept scanning the surroundings.
"Who are you? Get out of here!"
As soon as he finished speaking, waves of energy spread out in the Shuiyue Dynasty. Zagreus' eyes blurred and he was instantly shocked back to reality. He was fine, but the bloodline of the Fourth Prince only had such a limited effect, and was finally shattered by the Shuiyue Emperor.
At this time, the Fourth Prince's eyes rolled up completely and his whole body twitched continuously. Zagreus was afraid that he would pee on him again, so he threw him directly to Queen Mother Wei.
"You, what did you do to Ji'er? Do you know that he is..."
"Of course I know. Isn't it the bloodline of the one from the Shuiyue Dynasty? He has so many sons and grandsons, so this one won't make a difference. So, you, hand over the Phoenix Seal quickly. I have other things to do!"
