Chapter 174 The Old Eunuch Ascends the Dragon Throne! Little Stool is About to Break Through Again!
Chapter 174 The Old Eunuch Ascends the Dragon Throne! Little Stool is About to Break Through Again!
Night fell.
Heavy snow began to fall again over the imperial city.
There are less than two months left until the Lunar New Year!
Disturbed, Chen Fan got out of the bowl and started wandering around the palace.
With his mind preoccupied with weapon crafting techniques, he unknowingly wandered into the North Garden.
Ever since Ren Dahai was arrested by Chen Fan.
This place also became one of the places he frequented.
It's not because the place is big or the bed is warm.
Instead, there is a complete set of Zhou Tian Grand Array sand table here.
With the help of this large array sand table, Chen Fan was able to better comprehend the array patterns and improve his understanding of array formations!
It is faintly visible.
The North Garden was deserted, and there were many more withered leaves on the ground.
With the wind and snow raging, this place looked more like an uninhabited place.
After scanning the area with his divine sense as he gradually arrived, Chen Fan walked into the inner room.
After seeing the array sand table, he slowly began to understand it by hand.
From the array pivot located in the Ziji Hall of the Imperial Palace, to the array eye in the Jingshifang (Office of Imperial Affairs), and even the array patterns inside and outside the gates of the Imperial City.
Chen Fan touched them all with his hands.
Although it was just a sand table, he could truly feel the wonder of this Zhou Tian Grand Array!
This calmed his restless heart.
About half an hour has passed.
A glint of light flashed in Chen Fan's eyes.
After several visits to Beiyuan, he finally memorized the core of the Zhou Tian Formation, as well as the various array eyes and patterns!
If he were given some more time to go out and comprehend the array patterns, he would be confident in controlling this Zhou Tian Array!
Thinking of this, Chen Fan's lips curled up into a smile.
Without hesitation, he followed them out of Beiyuan!
After a while.
Beneath the dragon throne in the Purple Palace.
Chen Fan arrived here with his hands behind his back.
Looking at the throne surrounded by nine golden dragons, a smile appeared in his eyes.
It spanned the reigns of four emperors: Emperor Taiyuan, Emperor Hongwu, Emperor Jianwen, and Emperor Yongle.
Chen Fan was already tired of this position.
He wasn't interested in it, and wouldn't have come here if it weren't for the fact that the array pivot was here.
With his thoughts churning, Chen Fan walked step by step toward the throne on the steps.
The closer he got, the more he could feel a powerful force surging beneath the throne!
If someone is sitting on the dragon throne and controlling the formation at this moment, they can kill him!
With this in mind, Chen Fan began to form hand seals and pointed towards the dragon throne!
In an instant, the dangerous fluctuation disappeared!
After dispelling the protective power of the formation, Chen Fan finally arrived in front of the dragon throne!
He placed his hand on the dragon head armrest, then turned around and plopped down on the ground!
"Hmm...it's quite hard...but I can't lean it against my back yet..."
Chen Fan shook his head, muttering to himself, feeling that the dragon throne wasn't as comfortable as he had imagined.
Yet, many people are desperate to sit in this chair!
Even if it means forcing my father to resign and killing my brother to usurp the throne, I will still become the master of this chair!
Feeling a mix of emotions, Chen Fan shook his head inwardly and immediately channeled his divine sense into the array's core to perceive its internal structure...
……
The night passed quickly.
The third quarter of the hour of Mao (5:45 AM).
Chen Fan woke up on the dragon throne.
Sensing that a eunuch was approaching, he silently disappeared into the darkness!
Squeak...
Soon, the gates of the Purple Palace were pushed open.
Then several eunuchs from the Directorate of Ceremonial Affairs came in.
Holding cleaning tools in their hands, they started gossiping as they cleaned!
"Have you heard... His Majesty won the battle... He'll probably be returning to the palace soon!"
"I've heard... my father-in-law said that the Emperor is likely to take action against the Brightness Cult this time!"
"Hmph! Those traitors of the Church of Light are utterly ungrateful; they dared to assassinate His Majesty! They deserve to die!"
"Hurry up and clean... we still need to clean the other palaces..."
……
On the roof beams of the Ziji Hall.
Chen Fan, who was lying there, heard everything the eunuchs said clearly.
He remained impassive, but upon hearing that Emperor Yongle was about to withdraw his troops, a hint of melancholy appeared in his eyes.
Thinking to himself that the Eighth Prince sending someone to assassinate the Yongle Emperor was tantamount to a blatant declaration of war!
It's only been less than two years since the last fight between the uncle and nephew, and they're already starting again so soon!
It seems that things will get chaotic in Daeyu after the new year!
With these thoughts in mind, Chen Fan quietly left the Purple Extreme Palace!
As he walked along, stopping frequently, he noticed many eunuchs cleaning inside and outside the palace.
He also saw some eunuchs sneaking out of a concubine's room.
Chen Fan, unfazed by such occurrences, simply smiled.
They then headed straight for the Imperial Horse Stables.
On the way back.
Chen Fan also saw an acquaintance.
It was none other than Commander Ma of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
He appeared energetic as he led his men on patrols.
But Chen Fan noticed at a glance that his forehead was dark, as if he was about to suffer a bloody disaster!
Having dealt with him twice before, he didn't offer any advice.
After all, the other party was the high and mighty Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard!
He was just a eunuch who tended horses, and even if he told the other party, they probably wouldn't believe him.
Chen Fan, who did not meddle in other people's affairs, shook his head inwardly and followed the steps back to the Imperial Stables.
As usual.
The little stool is practicing its skills.
Since breaking through to the Iron Skin Realm, he has been practicing even more diligently!
"Godfather...you're here!"
As soon as Xiaodengzi saw his godfather arrive, he rushed forward to massage his back and shoulders.
Chen Fan nodded with a smile on his face.
They habitually sit in front of the stove to warm themselves by the fire.
"Godfather... after breaking through to the Iron Skin Realm, I feel that the circulation of spiritual energy in my body has become much faster..." Little Stool said with a smile:
"Especially after absorbing the spiritual energy from these spirit stones, I feel like I'm about to break through again!"
Ok?
Chen Fan's eyes flickered!
He glanced at the small stool with his divine sense and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
The eunuch's dantian was brimming with spiritual energy, clearly indicating that he was about to break through!
Keep in mind that Little Stool only broke through to the Iron Skin Realm a couple of days ago!
Why am I about to enter the Breaking Void Realm again?
Chen Fan, without showing any emotion, used his divine sense to take two more glances, but in the end, he still couldn't see anything!
He also knew that Xiao Dengzi was slow-witted and had spent almost half a year trying to break through to the Iron Skin Realm.
It's somewhat surprising that they're about to break through to the Void Breaking Realm one after another.
"Great achievements come from small beginnings..." His thoughts raced, and Chen Fan thought of a possibility:
"You hadn't broken through to the Iron Skin Realm for half a year, but now that you've broken through, it's like a flood that can't be stopped... This is a good thing!"
"I see..." Little Stool exclaimed excitedly after hearing what his godfather said.
"Godfather...this is wonderful! Little Stool is quite the expert now!"
Chen Fan nodded.
After Emperor Jianwen's reshuffling, there are now very few experts at the Acquired Realm in the palace.
As for experts at the Innate Realm, they are extremely rare.
A eunuch like Xiaodengzi, who can reach the Breaking Void Realm, can indeed be considered a master!
"Don't be arrogant..." Chen Fan cautioned.
"Keep a low profile... understand?"
"Yes, Godfather! Your son will follow your teachings!" Little Stool was filled with excitement!
Chen Fan nodded slightly.
Without saying anything more, he left with his hands behind his back!
After watching her godfather leave.
The little stool came out of the house.
Looking at the swirling snowflakes, his eyes welled up with tears as he said:
"Father, Mother... wait for your son... our family will be back soon to take care of you..."
