Chapter 613 Dying
Xiao Ruoling and the others' moods became lowered, and they followed the old eunuch with gray hair and childlike face as they walked inside.
Arriving at the back garden of the courtyard, in a small pavilion surrounded by flower beds, I saw a beautiful woman leaning on the imperial concubine's couch.
She wore a flowing cloud brocade palace dress with gold and silver threads interspersed in it, clinging to her graceful figure.
The hibiscus jade face is charming and dazzling, and there is a golden walking stick in the cloud-like hair on the temples.
A red hand supported her delicate and white chin, as if she was lost in thought, her dark eyebrows knitted together.
Hearing the footsteps, she cast her eyes over, stood up and sighed: "Junior sister, you are finally here."
"Senior sister, what happened?" Qin Ruolan asked in confusion.
She originally thought it was just her senior sister who missed her again. She hadn't seen her in two years. When she heard that she was out of isolation, she called her over to chat and gossip.
Concubine Hui sighed softly: "Zhao'er is probably going to die."
Qin Ruolan was startled and her face changed slightly: "Ninth Prince?!"
Concubine Hui sighed: "Well, he was playful and went to Xiluo City to have fun. He wanted to climb to the top of Luoshen Mountain and was seriously injured by the demon master."
"Where are the guards?" Qin Ruolan frowned: "How could the Ninth Prince be injured?"
"He ran away secretly. He wanted to visit incognito and fight in the martial arts world alone." Concubine Hui looked helpless: "I deliberately threw away the guards, and only two secret guards followed behind. The result..."
"Severely injured?"
"I've used the Great Bright Heart-Protect Pill, and it's lasted three days. Looking at the situation, I'm afraid I won't be able to save his life."
"The Great Light Heart-Protect Pill can't save you. How serious is the injury?" Qin Ruolan was puzzled: "Isn't he a master in the realm of gods?"
"The master of the demon clan's spirit transformation realm used treasures to activate the power of the master of the spirit transformation realm. Without the protective mirror, he would have died on the spot."
"How could this be so?" Qin Ruolan frowned and said, "The Ninth Prince is indifferent to the world, so there is no need to be like this, right?"
The Ninth Prince's mother and concubine died of illness when he was three years old, and he was raised by Concubine Hui.
At that time, Concubine Hui had no children of her own.
Three years later, Concubine Hui gave birth to the tenth prince, and then two princesses.
This Ninth Prince has been stubborn and stubborn since he was a child, and his aptitude is extremely dull. He also dislikes and resists practice. At the age of twenty-two, he is still wandering in the Qi Transformation Realm.
The secret method of the royal family is one of the top mental methods in the world. He has been practicing for twelve years and is still in the Qi Transformation state. He has poor qualifications and is too lazy to practice.
Although Concubine Hui was not his biological mother, she had the kindness to raise him, but he was not close to Concubine Hui.
To outsiders, it seemed as if Concubine Hui had abused him.
The current emperor has many children, twenty-eight princes and thirty-four princesses.
The Ninth Prince is a dispensable existence among the princes and princesses.
Among the princes, the top ten princes were all crowned kings.
He, the Ninth Prince, has not even been granted the title of the lowest county prince.
Some princes with high-born concubines were granted the title of prince at birth.
Princes whose mothers and concubines were from ordinary backgrounds were not given the title of king when they were born, but when they reached adulthood, they were often given the title of the lowest-ranking prince to open their palace.
Concubine Hui also tried to fight for him from the emperor, but because of his naughty temperament, getting into trouble from time to time, and his low cultivation level, he was disliked by the emperor and refused to agree.
Therefore, even though he has reached adulthood, his residence is still the prince's residence.
Such a prince is the easiest to kill, but there is really no need to kill such a useless prince.
It does not show the power of the demon clan.
Concubine Hui sighed: "After much thought, if it wasn't an unlucky coincidence, it would probably be because he was going to become the consort of the Phoenix Dynasty."
"Consort?" Qin Ruolan frowned: "Sister, what's going on?"
"Alas...Junior sister, you have been in seclusion for two years. A lot of things have happened in the past two years."
"What's the big deal?"
"Our army suffered a huge defeat and we sued for peace with the Phoenix Dynasty." "Junior sister, our army is not weak, so it won't be a big defeat, right?"
Although the Phoenix Dynasty's army was strong, the Yujing Dynasty was not that weak.
"The Phoenix Dynasty produced a genius general who defeated our army steadily."
Qin Ruolan's face changed slightly.
"Fortunately, the Yuanzhen Dynasty wanted to take advantage and took the opportunity to send troops. The Phoenix Dynasty took advantage of their great victory to deal with the Yuanzhen Dynasty. We tried our best to hold them back, so we were able to maintain a stalemate and obtain an armistice."
"Alas...the balance is still broken." Qin Ruolan frowned slightly: "Now we are in trouble."
The three dynasties were in a powerful position and fought with each other. Most of them were local conflicts. It was difficult for a war to break out if they were afraid of each other.
The Phoenix Dynasty gave birth to a genius general, breaking the balance maintained by the three.
Once the balance is broken, there will often be a fierce battle or even a national war to restore it.
Once the three major dynasties go to war, the battlefields outside the territory will be affected. If the demon clan invades the territory in large numbers, the world will be devastated.

"We want a truce, and one of the things we want to do is for the prince to join the Phoenix Dynasty and become the consort."
"The prince became the consort," Qin Ruolan shook her head: "He deliberately humiliated us."
Marrying a princess was already frustrating enough, but now that a prince was given as a consort, the whole Yujing Dynasty was even more embarrassed.
This is equivalent to marrying a prince, and the prince is also equivalent to a proton.
"To cease the war, we can only agree to this condition," Concubine Hui said: "Everyone in the court is holding their breath. They will eventually avenge this."
"Ninth Prince..." Qin Ruolan sighed.
Without asking, you will know why the Ninth Prince was chosen. Without asking, you will know how miserable the Ninth Prince's situation will be.
Concubine Hui sneered and said: "The twelve princesses of the Phoenix Dynasty have reached the age to marry the prince-in-law. Among us, there are only three who are suitable in age, the eighth, the ninth and the tenth. The eighth is a county prince, and the tenth has better qualifications."
Qin Ruolan nodded slowly.
Lao Shi is the biological son of Concubine Hui, and Lao Ba’s mother concubine is Concubine Xian.
And both of them were granted the title of county king.
The Ninth Prince, who is extremely stubborn and has dull qualifications, is naturally the best candidate.
"The demon clan suddenly took action to kill Lao Jiu. This is because they received the news and wanted to break the truce with sinister intentions."
"The Ninth Prince must not die." Qin Ruolan said.
Concubine Hui sighed: "I have tried all kinds of methods. The director of the Imperial Hospital has tried it, the worshipers in the palace have tried it, and even the emperor has personally treated his injuries, and he has also used the Great Bright Heart-Protect Pill."< br>
"One blow from the Demon Clan Spirit Master..." Qin Ruolan shook his head: "It's hard to save him. Didn't you ask the Four Spirit Masters of the country to take action?"
"The four spirit masters are all in deep sleep, how can they be disturbed by such a trivial matter?" Concubine Hui sighed heavily: "Oh! I've been worried to death these past two days!"
Qin Ruolan was helpless: "The Patriarch is also sleeping. Otherwise, please ask the Patriarch for help."
"That Demon Clan Spirit Lord is vicious. Even if the Patriarch wakes up, he may not be able to save Zhao'er." Concubine Hui shook her head: "He was born with a bad fate. Sometimes I think that if he just left like this, it wouldn't be a good thing for him. Not a good thing.”
"Junior sister, be careful what you say!" Qin Ruolan said hurriedly.
Concubine Hui snorted: "There is no need to be cautious. Anyway, my reputation as a poisonous woman has already spread all over the world!"
"...I'll go see His Highness Ninth Prince." Qin Ruolan showed a look of reluctance.
She came to Fuhui Palace frequently and met the Ninth Prince countless times.
The Ninth Prince was naughty, but he was very respectful and close to her, even closer to Concubine Hui.
Maybe it's because her appearance is somewhat similar to that of the Ninth Prince's biological mother.
Concubine Hui stood up: "Come with me, he is at his prince's residence."
