In the main hall, Qingmin's figure appeared again.
"Here we go, I hope I can clear a few more levels this time so that I can return to my family early."
Qing Min stared at the magic screen in front of him.
In front of the wooden door, some people have already begun to try to climb the stone steps.
No matter what the reason is, you enter this ghost forest.
But if you want to get out alive, there is only one way, and that is to pass the trial.
These thousand people can survive the deathly silence of the Ghost Mist Forest, and their minds are naturally stronger than ordinary people.
Since you can’t resist, just accept it calmly.
Li Yu also stepped up to the first step.
Phew
The scenery in front of us changed rapidly.
"Huh? Illusion?"
The moment he stepped on the steps, he understood what the first test was?
Li Yu did not dare to be careless, gathered all his soul power, and kept his mind tight.
The Royal Palace of the Zhou Empire, in front of His Majesty the Emperor’s bed.
The old man with white hair and beard stood quietly.
The old man is about fifty or sixty years old, with a ruddy complexion and an elegant look.
He looked at the emperor lying on the bed and shook his head slightly.
The old man’s name is Li Yu.
He has numerous titles, including the Protector of the Empire, the Grand Marshal of the Empire's Arms and Horses, the Imperial Master, the number one martial artist in the Empire, and the Prime Minister of the Empire.
He is the real power of the Zhou Empire, one person is inferior to tens of thousands of people.
He is also the person whom His Majesty the Emperor trusts the most.
"Old...Teacher..."
His Majesty the Emperor spoke in an extremely weak voice.
"Your Majesty"
The old man's voice was loud and sad.
"Is there anything else you want to explain?"
"Teacher, the empire is suffering from internal and external troubles, and there are many vassals. If I die, the prince will not be able to control him. Ahem. ..."
Before His Majesty the Emperor could finish speaking, he started coughing violently again.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. Although the prince is young, he is smart and sensitive. With a little guidance, he will definitely become a wise king in the future."
Li Yu comforted him.
"Just be afraid, his uncles and uncles won't give him time."
His Majesty the Emperor shook his head and sighed.
He still understands his brothers and brothers.
After his death, the vassal kings from all over the country will inevitably rise up and force the prince to abdicate.
"Your Majesty..."
"Teacher, I'm afraid my time is about to come."
His Majesty the Emperor looked at the ceiling above the bed, feeling quite puzzled. Helpless and unwilling.
"Alas..." Li Yu sighed.
The emperor seemed to have finally made up his mind and suddenly said: "Teacher, I want to give you the Zen position."
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible." Li Yu was shocked.
"Teacher."
"My brothers and brothers only want to have fun and have no intention of governing the country."
His Majesty the Emperor seems to be Angry, but also like a flashback, his face flushed.
"If the empire falls into their hands, I am afraid that within ten years there will be wars all over the land and the people will cry."
"Your Majesty, I have no nostalgia for power. "
Li Yu sighed, and then said, "Although the prince is young, he is kind-hearted."
"After he inherits the throne, he will definitely care about the people, and the old ministers will do their best. I will do my best to assist the prince."
He glanced at the haggard emperor, and then said:
"As for those vassal princes, your majesty can rest assured that as long as the old minister is still there, They can't make any trouble."
"Teacher..."
His Majesty the Emperor also knows that with the temperament of the old man in front of him, it is impossible for him to inherit the throne.
He is just unwilling.
"Hey, let the prince come in"
Then the eunuch walked out quickly and announced that the prince had an audience.
Outside the palace.
Countless concubines, empresses, and nobles knelt down and sobbed softly. Behind them were Gege and Brother kneeling.
Outside the palace gate, civil and military ministers were lined up on the left and right, all with solemn expressions.
Everyone knows that His Majesty the Emperor has reached the end of his life.
With his death, the situation in the empire will change dramatically.

Winter of the thirty-eighth year of Yonghe
Emperor Zhao Jing of the Great Zhou Empire passed away, and the whole city was in mourning.
A month later, Prince Zhao Kuangzhou visited Dabao in the imperial capital, changed the country's name to Yong'an, and then named Li Yu the regent.
Li Yu was the first king with a different surname in the history of the empire, and no one dared to object.
Spring, the first year of Yong'an.
Li Yu led his army to attack the eighteen vassal kings. In more than three months, he conquered five kings and seven cities without defeating the enemy in a single battle.
The remaining thirteen kings were all shocked.
One after another wrote letters to plead guilty and voluntarily reduced the vassal state, and the empire realized centralization.
Autumn, the first year of Yongan.
The Jinsha Kingdom in the Northern Territory invaded the border. The border was thousands of miles away, mourning was everywhere, and countless people were displaced.
Li Yu, the regent, led an army of 450,000 in the Northern Expedition. It took only half a year to reach the coast of Jinhe River.
After crossing the Jinhe River, three hundred miles away is the capital of Jinsha Kingdom.
King Jinsha was shocked and wrote a letter asking for peace and willing to become a vassal country.
The regent rejected the petition, and within six months, the Jinsha Kingdom was destroyed, and the empire was thousands of miles wide in the north.
Winter in the third year of Yong'an.
People from the grasslands of the Western Regions are galloping eastward, disturbing the empire's western frontier and causing no peace.
The seventy-year-old regent once again wore armor.
He personally led the army in only three months.
Thousands of miles of grassland in the Western Regions belonged to the Great Zhou Empire.
After that, all the countries in the four directions submitted letters wishing to be called vassal states.
The territory of the Zhou Empire expanded several times, and the country became rich and the people strong.
The regent Li Yu's prestige and power reached its peak both in the Zhou Dynasty, in surrounding vassal states, and even overseas.
Whether it is the people or the court, whether it is civil servants or military generals, they all hope that the regent can ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.
Even Emperor Yong'an has repeatedly stated in public that he is willing to abdicate the throne to Li Yu.
Li Yu turned a blind eye and listened to all this.
Winter of the fifth year of Yongan.
Li Yu wrote a letter requesting to retire and return to his hometown.
The emperor refused.
Li Yu then submitted a letter to resign as Marshal of the Army, saying that he was ill and would not see guests.
The emperor had no choice but to agree.
In the same year, Li Yu wrote again, requesting to return to his hometown to take care of himself.
The emperor cried and agreed.
Winter of the Thirteenth Year of Yong'an
The Empire's Dinghai Shenzhen, Li Yu died of illness at home and resigned from all positions before his death.
He has been extremely powerful throughout his life, but he has not been blinded by power. He always sticks to his heart and does things worthy of the empire and the former emperor.
As Li Yu died in the illusion, Li Yu also woke up in reality.
"This illusion should be at the fourth level. Although it is a little rough in many places, it can be considered complete and real."
Li Yu lowered his head and pondered, understanding in his heart.
In the primary trial of the Dragon Clan, for low-level people like them, the fantasy level will naturally not be too high.
With the strength of Li Yu’s golden elixir-stage soul and his commanding position, he could see through the essence of the illusion at a glance.
But stones from other mountains can attack jade.
He wanted to know more about the illusion of this world, so he chose to sink into the illusion.
"The power I have is just fleeting. Only by adhering to your true heart can you be worthy of your heart."
Li Zi felt that his soul had been purified.
"It can be considered an unexpected surprise."
He smiled hoarsely and stepped up to the second step.
"Huh?"
The Qingmin envoy, who had closed his eyes and meditated in the main hall, was suddenly awakened.
"How could someone come out of the first level of illusion so quickly?"
Qingmin accepted the envoy and looked at the screen in the main hall.
"That child?"
"Haha, that's right. How can a child of this age understand the benefits of power."
Qingmin's invitation made him laugh. .
It has been here for a hundred years, but it is the only one as big as Li Yu.
Human ten-year-old children are generally simple-minded.
This illusion is designed for adults, but children are the easiest to pass through.
"Wait a minute, the largest number of people will be eliminated in the first level of illusion."
The Qingmin envoy said to himself.
