with a louder voice."Natural disasters, man-made disasters!""Since I was named Crown Prince, I have never interfered in state affairs. It was only over a month ago that I became Regent. The court off...Chapter 1099: Immortal of the Land Kills
A simple heart.
The name rang a bell, making Li Chen feel somewhat uneasy.
"To dare use the imperial character in your name, you're quite bold." Li Chen said.
All names, from the common people to high officials, must be carefully chosen to avoid taboos.
The words "Huang" (皇) and "Di" (帝) are absolute taboos.
Those who are strict, all imperial posthumous titles and national titles are not allowed.
If the pronunciations are the same, then you should immediately change the name.
Otherwise, it would be a great disrespect.
There are also taboos against using the names of elders, a custom that has persisted to modern times without change.
In the Qin Empire, things were relatively relaxed. At least no one would pursue the previous emperor's temple name or the defunct national title. However, no one dared to use the character "di" (emperor) in their name.
"Just a name, Your Highness worries so much"
“This is not worry, it's the rules.”
Li Chen raised his hand to take the bowl of medicine, drank it in one gulp, then took a pastry and put it in his mouth. He then signaled Wan Jiaojiao to leave for now.
Emperor Jian's heart was that of a genuine Earth Immortal expert. Not to mention the Three Treasures were gone, even if they were here, Li Chen wouldn't allow anyone else to stay and risk further danger.
Although Wan Jiaojiao sensed something was amiss, she was obedient and well-behaved.
Yingying curtsy to Li Chen, and Wan Jiaojiao, who would make even a Land Immortal kneel, turned her head and left.
"Aren't you averse to the palace atmosphere How did you come to the Xizheng Hall" Li Chen said lightly, "I still came uninvited."
"Your Highness did not call me here, did you" Jian Di replied in his heart.
"I summoned you to come here so that you could go to the East Palace, follow protocol, and be formally presented. Only after I had summoned you would you be allowed to enter. Since I haven't summoned you, your unauthorized entry into the Hall of Governance is a crime." Li Chen said.
Chuckling softly, Emperor Jian didn't take Li Chen's words to heart at all. He said, "Your Highness, you and I are both intelligent people, so why go through this charade"
"Even if you didn't tell me to come see you, there isn't a place in this world I couldn't go to."
Jian Di's words were filled with arrogance and self-importance.
This arrogance is not without reason.
He truly has reached the pinnacle of martial arts, a realm known as "Land Immortal." There is no place on land he cannot reach.
Li Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.
He disliked Jian Di Xin's arrogance very much.
I don't know who the protagonist is
Only I can be a show-off.
Then Li Chen raised his hand and threw the medicine bowl to the ground.
The porcelain bowl collided with the ground, shattering into pieces with a loud crash.
Most importantly, there was that sharp sound.
In an instant, footsteps outside the hall sounded like a raging storm. The palace gate of Xizheng Hall was flung open, and dozens of guards who were protecting outside Xizheng Hall rushed in, armed with weapons. Over half of them carried firearms, their muzzles pointed directly at Emperor Jian's heart.
In just a few breaths, the previously empty Xizheng Hall was packed with people. Emperor Jian was surrounded in the center, all weapons pointed at him. As long as he moved slightly, or Li Chen said a word, these guards would immediately attack Emperor Jian without hesitation.
Emperor Jian stood with his arms folded, motionless.
Not even an eyelid did he lift.
"Pretty fast, quick response."
Jian Di's heart surprisingly gave an assessment, then chuckled lightly: "But I can kill them faster."
"With that, he also asked Li Chen: “Your Highness, do you want to see how terrifying it is for a Land Immortal realm cultivator to kill”"o Rui's hand, then strode into the room.Zhao Xuanji followed closely behind.This was the first time Zhao Xuanji had spoken to Zhao Rui since her defection."Did you wake the emperor up by bowing to him...
