Donghuang Ziyou had a photographic memory since she was young. In less than two hours, she had read thousands of important books.
Unfortunately, she gained nothing.
Donghuang Ziyou put down the book in her hand and felt that there was still time. She would come in again when she had the time.
“Huh?”
She glanced at the row of books in the corner from the corner of her eye and acutely sensed an abnormality.
On that shelf, there was the famous “Thirty-seven Strategies of the War” of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.
The corners of this book were wrapped in golden foil. The foil was shiny, like new.
Following a strand of sunlight that seeped into the library, Donghuang Ziyou saw that the sunlight reflected a ray of light on the golden foil, and the other end of the light landed on the distant wall.
The corners of Donghuang Ziyou’s mouth couldn’t help but curl up. “At noon, a light happened to shine on the golden foil. This is definitely not a coincidence!”
“The light reflected should be pointing at a mysterious mechanism.”
When she was eleven years old, she had already memorized most of the mechanisms in the world.
As soon as she saw the scene in front of her, she immediately determined that this was actually a mechanism.
She walked gracefully to the wall pointed at by the reflected light.
Donghuang Ziyou tapped her finger a few times and heard an empty sound.
She took out the brick and indeed saw a secret compartment inside.
All sorts of confidential documents about Dongyuan Heaven were hidden in the secret compartment.
Among them, there were letters from Dongyuan’s emperor, Kong Qingcang, and the other worlds when he was alive. It was worth noting that there were letters from the Nine Furnace Heaven, the Silent Heaven, and the South Mystic Heaven.
“Nine Furnace Heaven’s emperor, Silent Heaven’s emperor, South Mystic Heaven’s emperor… You guys never have thought that when you joined forces with Dongyuan’s Emperor to overthrow North Mystic Heaven, you let me seize Dongyuan Heaven instead, right?”
“Now that Dongyuan Heaven is in my hands, your good days will be numbered!”
Donghuang Ziyou’s beautiful eyes flashed with coldness.
If not for these people joining forces to pressure North Mystic Heaven, how could her father have passed away so early?
They were all enemies. They had to pay the most painful price to comfort her father’s soul in heaven!
“This is…”
The next letter made Donghuang Ziyou tremble.
This was a letter from Kong Qingcang, the Heavenly Demon Realm, and a very mysterious force in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.
The contents of the letter were about Kong Qingcang inviting the Heavenly Demon Realm and Ji Tian to join the plan to suppress North Mystic Heaven. It included the plan to assassinate Donghuang Ziyou after forcing her father to his death and prevent her from taking over.
“Demon Alliance, Ji Tian. So it was you guys!”
Donghuang Ziyou’s beautiful eyes were filled with killing intent.
This letter revealed the information about six quasi-Emperor Realm assassins, which made Donghuang Ziyou slightly excited.
After tracking them for so long, she finally solved the mystery.
Now that she knew who were enemies were, she felt that she could do more.
“It seems like I was right to take down Dongyuan Heaven as soon as possible. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to clarify the relationship between Kong Qingcang and these factions in such a short time!”
Donghuang Ziyou revealed a satisfied expression and put away the letter.
At this moment, a black light flashed behind her and Ruo Ying bowed. “Your Majesty, something happened!”
Donghuang Ziyou slowly turned around. “What is it?”
Ruo Ying said, “The son of the chief military advisor, E Yang, killed the crown prince of Dongqing, Yan Yuqi, with a punch.”
“At this moment, the king of Dongqing, Yan Hongzhi, is kneeling in front of the Heavenly Origin Palace and begging Your Majesty to make a judgment!”
The son of the chief military advisor?
Donghuang Ziyou frowned slightly.
Er Qing was an elder of Dongyuan Heaven’s five dynasties and was one of the “three dukes”.
He was extremely prestigious and powerful in Dongyuan Heaven.
How to deal with this matter would have a very profound impact on Dongyuan Heaven’s future governance.
“Let’s go take a look!”
Donghuang Ziyou flicked her sleeve and left.
Ruo Ying followed behind her. She felt that this domineering empress would definitely do something that would shock Dongyuan Heaven today.
…
At the entrance of the Heavenly Origin Palace.
Dongqing’s king, Yan Hongzhi, was kneeling on the ground with a resentful expression.
Today, his son was killed by a punch because he had an argument with the son of the chief military advisor, E Yang.
He was originally afraid of Er Qing’s power, so he didn’t dare to pursue the matter.
However, after inquiring with some officials of the Heavenly Origin Palace, they accidentally learned that the Heavenly Origin Palace was now under Donghuang Ziyou’s control and that Donghuang Ziyou would be attending court in the Heavenly Origin Palace today.
Thinking of the rumors about Donghuang Ziyou, he decided to personally come to the Heavenly Origin Palace to complain.
When they saw that Yan Hongzhi actually brought this matter to the Heavenly Origin Palace, the many ministers who came to court shook their heads.
“A monarch of a small country dares to come here and complain about the son of a military minister? He’s really courting death!”
“Lord E is an elder of the five dynasties. He has worked hard for Dongyuan Heaven. It’s impossible to do anything to his son!”
With Yan Hongzhi’s lowly status, he was worlds apart from Er Qing.
Many ministers felt that Yan Hongzhi was giving himself trouble.
A minister with a righteous expression walked out of the crowd. His name was Zhao Si, and he was the minister Donghuang Ziyou had transferred from North Mystic Heaven.
He said loudly, “Her Majesty is upright and enforces the law strictly. No matter who broke the law, she won’t let them off!”
Many of Dongyuan Heaven’s original ministers shook their heads silently.
The empress was domineering and straightforward, but this was Dongyuan Heaven. Furthermore, Er Qing’s identity was too special and noble.
If the empress went against Er Qing, it would definitely affect the entire Dongyuan Heaven’s government.
After all, the reason the empress had left behind the original ministers of Dongyuan Heaven was to maintain the stability of this place.
It made no sense to offend a top-notch noble like Er Qing for an unimportant person!
Everyone guessed that Donghuang Ziyou at least wouldn’t offend Er Qing openly.
When he heard everyone’s discussion, Yan Hongzhi’s heart skipped a beat.
With so many people skeptical about him being able to do anything to E Yang, this doubled the pressure on him.
Gritting his teeth, Yan Hongzhi decided to fight to the death.
“If even Her Majesty can’t help me, then I’ll accept my fate!”
He thought to himself.
At this moment, someone shouted, “Lord E, you’re here!”
Chief Military Minister Er Qing appeared in front of everyone with his son, E Yang.
Facing the admiration of the many ministers, Er Qing and E Yang were smug.
The two of them stopped when they passed Yan Hongzhi.
E Yang narrowed his eyes at Yan Hongzhi and said in a low voice, “You’re courting death!”
After all the ministers entered the Heavenly Origin Palace, Donghuang Ziyou walked to the golden phoenix throne from the side door of the palace.
“Greetings, Your Majesty!”
The ministers hurriedly bowed.
Donghuang Ziyou, who was looking up at the throne, seemed as beautiful as a goddess, but she had an imposing aura.
Donghuang Ziyou waved her hand to signal everyone to stand up and said, “Let the king of Dongqing in.”
Everyone’s expressions changed.
According to the rules, someone of Yan Hongzhi’s status was unqualified to enter the Heavenly Origin Palace.
Donghuang Ziyou had specifically invited him in to help him resolve the problem.
Er Yang couldn’t help but look at Er Qing, who gestured for him not to panic.
As an elder of the fith dynasty and the chief military advisor, how could he not be able to deal with the king of a small country?
