Chapter 3: Don't think about the concubines

Five Elements Golden Body Technique!

It is the top-level body-refining skill and also the highest level of body-refining skill of the Daning royal family. It can be said to be the strongest in the dynasty.

The skills, combat techniques, secret arts and the like in this world are divided into three levels: mortal, spiritual and divine.

It is further divided into four small realms: low, intermediate, advanced and top level. The Five Elements Golden Body Technique is also among the top-level divine techniques.

In order to obtain this body-refining magic skill, the Daning royal family spent decades of national treasury savings and paid a lot of extra costs, which even included some treasures passed down from the ancestors of the Daning royal family. Only then did they purchase this Five Elements Golden Body Sutra from those divine dynasties.

The physical training method that Ning Zhongyu practiced was the Five Elements Golden Body Technique, so a copy of the Five Elements Golden Body Technique was left in the imperial study.

Originally, Cao Wen Zheng wanted to take them away, but when he thought about how Ning Zhongyu often browsed through these martial arts books in the imperial study, it would easily arouse suspicion if he took them away.

After some consideration, he decided to keep copies of these martial arts books.

After all, the original owner had very poor talent and aptitude, and his body was crippled. Even if he had been rehabilitated, he would not be able to practice, and they would not let the original owner live to leave the palace.

This top-level magical skill is just right for Lu Changjing at the moment.

If the original owner had not become Ning Zhongyu's substitute, he would never have been able to come into contact with a magical book of this level in his lifetime.

I started to read it carefully, prepared to write it down, and then practiced according to the contents.

The first stage of martial arts is body training, which is divided into ten levels. Levels one to three are the Qi and Blood Realm, levels four to six are the External Forging Realm, levels seven to nine are the Internal Forging Realm, and the tenth level is the Earth Gate Realm.

This is the so-called tenth level of body refinement, corresponding to warriors from the first to the tenth level.

Martial artists in the Qi and Blood Realm are called low-level martial artists, and people like to respect them as third-rate masters; martial artists in the Outer Forging Realm are called mid-level martial artists, and people like to respect them as second-rate masters.

Martial artists in the Inner Refining Realm are called high-level martial artists, and people like to respect them as first-class masters; martial artists in the Earthly Gate Realm are called top-level martial artists, and people like to respect them as top masters.

The next level up is the tenth level of meridian forging, which nurtures internal strength and forges spiritual veins. This is called the master.

Grandmasters are also divided into ten levels, namely low-level grandmaster, middle-level grandmaster, high-level grandmaster and top-level grandmaster, and the top-level grandmaster is also called grand master.

Imperial Concubine Rong Xiyao's father, the King of Southwest, is a grandmaster of the tenth level of meridian forging, and is one of the best among the grandmasters. This makes Rong Xiyao confident in the palace.

Cao Wenzhen is also a grandmaster of the tenth level of Meridian Forging, but his combat power is slightly weaker than that of the King of Southwest.

Lu Changjing has not even entered the Qi and Blood realm yet, and is a mortal who is powerless.

However, after his physique doubled, although he was still a mortal, his physical fitness was already close to that of a first-level warrior.

Although the Five Elements Golden Body Technique is practiced by body-building warriors, it has a total of thirty levels and can be practiced to the level of the tenth level of meridian forging and above.

Fortunately, the original owner came from a wealthy family and knew how to practice cultivation. The improvement of his physical condition also subtly increased his memory and comprehension.

It only took more than an hour to memorize all the contents corresponding to the tenth level of body refining, and I was able to basically understand it.

He then quickly put away the Five Elements Golden Body Technique and began to read the memorials on the table.

He was not qualified to review memorials, as they were mainly handled by Cao Wenzhen, while unimportant ones were handed over to Prime Minister Tang Zhongzhi.

Lu Changjing’s main focus is to understand. It is enough to know these things so that when you meet outsiders, you won’t be clueless when they ask you questions.

"Brother Emperor, what are you doing in there? Why don't you let me in?"

Before he had read a few pages of the memorial, he heard the voices of the concubines coming from outside again.

If the original owner's memory is correct, the one who dared to speak to the emperor like this should be Concubine Duan Lin Yixin. The other party's parents had a good relationship with his father. Since childhood, Lin Yixin often came to the Crown Prince's Palace to play with him, and when she grew up, she married Ning Zhongyu.

This made their relationship somewhat unusual, and Lin Yixin was somewhat casual when treating Ning Zhongyu.

"General Manager Cao has ordered that His Majesty is practicing secret techniques in there, and no one is allowed to disturb him."

"It's not just for Concubine Duan, it's for all the concubines."

……

The explanation from the palace guards came from outside, but it did not dampen Lin Yixin's determination to enter the imperial study.

"So what if it's Chief Steward Cao? I want the emperor to explain it in person before I listen to him."

"Emperor brother, are you in there? Open the door quickly, or there will be chaos outside."

……

Listening to Lin Yixin's noisy voice, Lu Changjing felt helpless. He didn't dare to open the door.

If there is anyone in the palace who knows Ning Zhongyu best, Lin Yixin would definitely be among the top few.

The original owner had only been trained for more than a month, and had memorized many things in a hasty manner. If he was not careful, Lin Yixin would easily find any flaws.

Now that Cao Wen Zheng is not here, for safety reasons, he should pretend to be in seclusion and practice hard. He doesn’t know what is happening outside.

"Brother Emperor, why don't you open the door? The surrounding countries are all laughing at our Daning Dynasty because you have no offspring. You should stop practicing the art of hiding your yang."

"You have been practicing that secret technique for more than ten years, but you haven't even mastered it yet. Why do you want to continue? Do you really want to be a monk for the rest of your life?"

"No, you must go to my bedroom tonight. I will wait for you there. We must give birth to a princess or prince this year to show everyone that there is nothing wrong with being the emperor."

……

Hearing this, Lu Changjing was stunned. The concubines here in the harem were so direct. The scene of the original owner meeting Lin Yixin for the first time emerged in his mind.

Her eyebrows are like a crescent moon, her eyes are like autumn waves, her eyelashes are like wings, she has a beautiful nose, white teeth and pink lips.

Her face was delicate and flawless, and her skin was as soft as porcelain, which made people unable to take their eyes away.

Her dark hair fell like ink, draped over her shoulders and spread over the lavender silk dress, adding a touch of elegance.

What’s even more amazing is that when she just smiles at you, you feel as if a field of lavender flowers are blooming before your eyes. They are not precious, but as soft and clear as moonlight.

He wanted to go to the bedroom, he wanted to consummate his marriage with Concubine Duan, but Eunuch Cao would not allow it!
With a bitter face, Lu Changjing suppressed the throbbing in his heart and continued to read the memorials, gaining a deeper understanding of the Daning Dynasty.

Seeing that there was no response from Lu Changjing for a long time, Lin Yixin finally despaired, turned around and left the imperial study, and did not forget to remind him again before leaving.

"Brother Emperor, although the Hidden Yang Technique can awaken a man's special talents, you are already so powerful that you don't need this at all."

"You'd better favor the concubines as soon as possible and give birth to more princesses and princes. The whole world is waiting for you."

……

Hearing this, Lu Changjing's eyes lit up. Could the Cang Yang Technique have such an effect? ​​Should he practice it?
"Yes, you handled it well just now. Don't try to take advantage of the concubines. You should do the same in the future."

Just as he thought of this, he heard Cao Wenzhen's voice ringing in his ears. It was the sound transmitted by internal force, which made Lu Changjing feel cold all over.
