Chapter 50 Blood Jade Illusion
Jiaofang Division.
Zhao Mu was packing his luggage in the room, preparing to leave the capital.
The demon blood jade and the body of the queen mother have been obtained.
He plans to find a secluded place and spend time studying it, so he probably won't be returning to the capital in the short term.
Suddenly, a voice came from the door: "Are you leaving?"
"Well, I have to leave for a while. If you need to see me for anything, go to the Fulin Shroud Shop on Banyue Street and ask them to send me a message."
Zhao Mu did not look back and said in a casual tone.
Zhou Yue walked in and sat on the chair: "Why, don't you pretend now?"
"Haha, I just don't pretend in front of you. I believe you won't reveal my secret."
Zhao Mu also walked over and sat down, smiling.
"Hmph, that's not possible. Maybe tomorrow I will tell everyone that you are the poisonous doctor who deceived the emperor and the queen mother."
Zhou Yue snorted lightly and stared at Zhao Mu angrily: "You are really good at lying. I thought you were not high in cultivation. I didn't expect that you have already entered the realm of a master. Tell me, why?" Compensate me?"
"What kind of compensation do you want, what kind of compensation do you want to give me?"
"roll!"
Zhou Yue struck with a fist: "It won't take long for me to break through to the Grandmaster realm. Do you want to compensate me? Then have a good fight with me then and let me see how powerful you are?" "
What a violent woman!
Zhao Mu shook his head and asked: "Have the results of the discussions in the past two days been reached? Do the ministers want the eldest prince to directly ascend the throne, or do they want the prince to supervise the country?"
The eldest prince is the bloodline of the royal family that was brought back from the Prince's Palace in Qingshan County by the Queen Mother.
Since Emperor Ming Yuan fell into coma, the Imperial Hospital has been diagnosing and treating him.
Recently, they had the results. Like Zhao Mu's diagnosis, they also believed that Emperor Ming Yuan would not be able to wake up in a short time.
But the country cannot be left without a master for a day, otherwise the entire court will become a mess.
So these days, the courtiers have been discussing, who should the future court respect?
"The results are there. They are planning to establish the eldest prince as the crown prince to supervise the country."
Zhou Yue hummed: "But the eldest prince is only a seven-year-old child after all, and has no ability to supervise the country at all, so they are planning to push Sister Yuwen out, listen to the affairs behind the curtain in the name of the queen, and handle the government affairs on behalf of the eldest prince."
"Listening to politics behind the curtain?"
Zhao Mu turned back to look at her: "Is he a complete puppet, or does he have some real power?"
"how to say?"
Zhou Yue paused for a moment: "Sister Yuwen actually has no interest in power at all. Her wish since childhood was just to travel around the world and see the beautiful scenery in the world."
"However, she couldn't bear to see the Jin Dynasty's waste of money and people over the years, so she negotiated terms with my master and Prince Su."
"She said that she could listen to the government behind the curtain and stabilize the situation of the court, but she requested that the court must start to recuperate, stop the war against the Great Jinlun Kingdom and the Five Poison Sects in Southern Xinjiang, maintain the current border position, and not launch another attack in a short period of time."
"In addition, in the country, in addition to necessary construction, all large-scale construction projects must also be stopped, and taxes must be reduced or reduced to give the people of the world a chance to breathe."
"Both Master and King Su agreed to this, because they also believe that it is time for the world to calm down."
"As for power..."
Zhou Yue shook her head: "Sister Yuwen said that from now on, the master and King Su will make the final decision on matters in the court. She just pretends to listen to politics behind the curtain and has no interest in getting involved."
Zhao Mu smiled and said: "That sister of yours is very wise. Today's ministers in the court actually obey Duke Wei and Prince Su, and no one else can get involved, so it is better to give up voluntarily and save yourself the trouble. "
…
Zhao Mu left and went to the valley where he once rejuvenated.
The location of the valley is extremely remote. Almost no one would show up, and no matter how big the noise is, no one will know about it.
Not long after Zhao Mu left, the court appointed a prince.
The eldest prince, who was only seven years old, took the position of Prince Supervisor, while Queen Yuwen Piaoxu began to listen to politics behind the curtain.
After that, the imperial court began to implement the national policy of recuperation.
The war stopped.
Various large-scale construction projects also gradually stopped.
All kinds of heavy taxes that weighed on the people were also canceled one by one.
The entire Jin Dynasty got a chance to breathe.
The chaos outside has nothing to do with Zhao Mu.
In the valley, there was still that simple cabin.
A corpse covered with green feathers was lying quietly in front of the wooden house.
Zhao Mu squatted nearby and studied the Queen Mother's body carefully.
He found that the Queen Mother's corpse was completely different from that of an ordinary person.
Not only is his body filled with demonic energy, but more importantly, his body structure has become hugely different from ordinary people.
For example, the bones all over the Queen Mother's body have become almost hollow, very similar to the bones of birds.
In addition, its body is covered with feathers.
Obviously, the demon blood jade should be made from the blood of some kind of bird monster.
"This corpse has turned into a demon corpse. If it is buried in an evil place and continues to absorb the evil spirit, it may not be long before it turns into a zombie."
Zhao Mu said to himself.
He took out the small box from his arms and took out the demon blood jade.
Immediately, the demonic aura emitted by the demonic blood jade echoed the demonic aura in the Queen Mother's body.
Buzz!
Strong demonic energy vibrates.
The next moment, a power that disturbs people's minds spreads.
The valley disappeared.
Zhao Mu looked around and found that he had come to a huge lake.
There are lush vegetation around the lake, and two beautiful mandarin ducks are playing on the lake under the clear blue sky.
The breeze blew slowly, making people feel as if the two mandarin ducks had transformed into human forms, dancing like lovers on the lake.
"Is this...an illusion?"
Zhao Mu was surprised.
After all, he is a master at the master level, with a firm and strong will in martial arts, and he can still distinguish between reality and illusion.
He should still be in the valley now, but the power of the demon blood jade allowed him to see this illusion.
"Could this scene be the remaining memory in the demon blood jade?"
"Could it be that the pair of mandarin ducks have become spirits and are just monsters that have condensed the demon blood jade?"
Zhao Mu secretly guessed, but the answer to this question may be difficult to figure out.
After all, everything in front of you is just an illusion. Who knows where the real bodies of the pair of mandarin ducks will be now?
Or are they already dead?
Zhao Mu's heart moved, his sword intent swept out, and all illusions suddenly disappeared.
Bodies, cabins, and valleys all reappeared.
He lowered his head and looked at the corpse of the Queen Mother: "Very good. Since the demon blood jade can react with the corpse, we can start the next step of research."
"I hope this demonized corpse can really help me purify the demonic energy of the demonic blood jade, so that I can absorb more spiritual energy."
