Chapter 95 The Real Borer of Daning

Under normal circumstances, Jin Longyu would never give his spiritual defense magic weapon to others.

But the one who asked him for it was the Emperor. As a subject, shouldn't I allow the Emperor to use his Soul-Fixing Bell? It's not like he's leaving and won't give it to him.

Moreover, if His Majesty the Emperor insisted on asking for his Soul-Fixing Bell, he would probably have to give it up reluctantly if he had no choice.

Jin Longyu was not worried that the test would damage his Soul-Fixing Bell. His Majesty the Emperor would not be so inconsiderate.

Although he had never experienced such a thing before, he did not have too many doubts, and he never thought that His Majesty the Emperor would deal with him.

Even if we really deal with him, he is a grand master, and it is impossible for Your Majesty, a mid-level grand master, to get away with him.

As for Cao Xiuyuan, he was also only a mid-level grandmaster and was not taken seriously by Jin Longyu at all.

"Why, Jin Qing, are you afraid that I won't return it after using it?"

Lu Changjing's words made Jin Longyu no longer hesitate. He quickly took down the Soul-Fixing Bell, the most powerful spiritual defense weapon, and handed it to Lu Changjing respectfully: "How dare I? Your Majesty, please forgive me."

A hint of joy flashed across the depths of his pupils. Lu Changjing took the Soul-Fixing Bell with a smile and took out the Soul-Shocking Spear at the same time, as if he wanted to test the power of the Soul-Shocking Spear.

When Jin Longyu saw the Jingshen Spear in Lu Changjing's hand, he felt it looked familiar and couldn't help but look at it carefully.

"Soul-shaking!"

At this moment, Cao Xiuyuan, who was behind him, suddenly made a move, causing Jin Longyu's face to change as he did not have the Soul-Fixing Bell to protect his spiritual sea. However, he still ejected a top-level talisman in time to protect his spiritual sea.

"Shocking thorn!"

"Shocking disaster!"

……

At this moment, Lu Changjing's Shocking Soul Stab combined with the Shocking Eyes Tribulation defeated the top-level talisman with unstoppable force. At the same time, Lu Changjing's roar rang out in the imperial study.

"Jin Longyu, do you want your entire clan to be exterminated?"

Jin Longyu, who was about to take out his next trump card, was shocked and hesitated for a moment. Just that moment was enough for the soul-picking technique to take away a wisp of his soul.

"This this……"

Jin Longyu quickly understood what had happened and looked at Lu Changjing in disbelief. He was shocked at being ambushed by the Emperor, but also at the powerful strength Lu Changjing displayed.

Such powerful strength is probably comparable to that of a grand master. Isn't His Majesty the Emperor only a mid-level grand master? How could he have such power?

What's going on?
Looking at Jin Longyu's stunned face, Lu Changjing smiled faintly and said, "Commander Cao, tell Minister Jin what's going on."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Cao Xiuyuan immediately pulled Jin Longyu aside and told Jin Longyu about how Cao Wenzhen, Zhao Jintian and others had imprisoned and coerced the Emperor.

After hearing what Cao Xiuyuan said, Jin Longyu couldn't help but exclaimed repeatedly.

"What? Cao Wenzheng actually dared to put His Majesty under house arrest. That sissy guy was actually capable of such a bold thing."

"You actually saw Cao Wenzheng teach His Majesty a lesson with your own eyes. Even if he is His Majesty's trusted minister, he should not be so rampant."

"It turns out that most of the memorials submitted to the court were not decided by His Majesty, but by Cao Wenzheng, Zhao Jintian and others. No wonder Zhao Jintian's brother was promoted to the governor of Yinshan County."...

After understanding the cause of the incident, Jin Longyu was greatly shocked. He did not expect that Cao Wenzhen, Zhao Jintian and others, who were also important officials in the peace negotiation faction, would do such lawless things.

Seeing that Jin Longyu still didn't believe it, Lu Changjing took the jade seal next to the dragon case and threw it over: "If Jin Qing doesn't believe it, you can check whether this jade seal is real or fake."

"This... I am terrified." Jin Longyu took the seal and examined it carefully for a while. He was soon shocked: "How could your Majesty's seal be fake? Where is the real seal?"

Lu Changjing smiled bitterly: "Where else could he go? Of course he went to Cao Wenzheng's place."

"Cao Wenzhen is too bold. Isn't he afraid that the late emperor will come out and grind him to dust?" Jin Longyu no longer had any doubts, but the next sentence caused an uproar.

Lu Changjing was stunned by these words, and he immediately used the soul-stealing technique to find out the reason. Fortunately, without the protection of the Soul-Fixing Bell, Jin Longyu, whose spiritual cultivation was only at the third-order grandmaster level, could not resist his theft at all.

Soon Lu Changjing was stunned by the truth. He never expected that there was such a secret behind the death of the late emperor.

Cao Xiuyuan next to him also looked confused. He didn't quite understand what Jin Longyu meant. It was obvious that he didn't know the truth of the matter.

Lu Changjing quickly asked him to leave and closed the door of the imperial study.

Jin Longyu also realized something at this time, and bowed and apologized with some regret: "I accidentally leaked the secret of the late emperor, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

According to Jin Longyu's memory, the old emperor Ning Tianbao was not dead at all, but had been hiding in the Daning Xiaoling Mausoleum to practice in seclusion, trying to break free from the shackles of gods and demons.

It turned out that several years ago, the old emperor had reached the perfection of a grandmaster and had the opportunity to break through to a higher level. At the same time, he began to secretly collect magical objects to assist in the breakthrough.

However, they did not expect that this matter would be noticed by some surrounding dynasties, and they began to sabotage it. They did not want the Daning Dynasty to have another god-devil emperor.

Even some divine dynasties do not want to see this happen.

Faced with such a crisis, Ning Tianbao decisively faked his death and escaped, thus escaping the disaster.

After this lesson, Ning Tianbao acted more cautiously. Except for Ning Zhongyu, Cao Wenzhen, Jin Longyu... a few people who knew about this matter, no one else knew about it.

Even the important ministers of the peace faction, the Minister of Punishments, the Minister of Personnel, and the Minister of Rites, did not know about this matter. As far as Jin Longyu knew, only Ning Zhongyu, Cao Wenzhen and he knew about this matter from the peace faction.

Ning Zhongyu is the old emperor's son, so it is natural for him to know about this matter.

Cao Wenzhen was mainly responsible for negotiating with demons and monsters and obtaining various magical items for the old emperor, so he knew about this matter.

The reason why Jin Longyu knew this was naturally because he was the Minister of Revenue, in charge of the Daning treasury. The old emperor needed to raise resources and treasures through him in exchange for what he wanted.

As for whether there are other people who know about it, according to what Cao Wenzhen said, there may still be some old monsters left over from the previous royal family in the Daning Xiaoling Mausoleum who know about it and are secretly protecting Ning Tianfa.

Others didn't know, but the reason why the Daning National Treasury and the Royal Secret Treasury became empty was mainly because they had prepared relevant sacred objects and resources for the old emperor, which led to their use up.

It turns out that the real borer of the Daning Dynasty was not Ning Zhongyu, but the old emperor Ning Tianbao.

Ning Zhongyu can only be regarded as a small termite at most, while the big termite is Ning Tianbao.

After learning the truth, Lu Changjing was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that there was such an inside story.
