The prince is very cruel

In ancient times, carrying baggage was not the same as swords and knives. Carrying baggage was a capital crime, a capital crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of the family.

What do they want to do with all this stuff?

Zheng Congwu looked unhappy.

Finding these things would be equivalent to finding the first weight to overthrow the Zheng family, but Guan Ning was in trouble at the moment. Neither the baggage nor the chariots could be transported out by him.

It would be a joke to go out with a piece of armor and want to overthrow the Zheng family.

At this moment, his eyes flashed, and he suddenly noticed that there was a high platform not far away. There were twelve steps alone, and it seemed that something was stored separately on the top.

So much gold and baggage could only be piled up randomly, and this was the only thing that was treated separately, which quickly attracted Guan Ning's attention.

Guan Ning approached quickly.

"What's on this?"

Zheng Congwu was being held hostage, his eyes filled with doubt: "This... I don't know either."

Guan Ning could see that he was not pretending, and there was no need to pretend. After all, it had come to this point. This made him even more curious, and he quickened his pace and walked up.

There is a bronze tree on the high platform, quietly placing a box made of golden nanmu. The exquisite craftsmanship is eye-catching, full of simplicity and grandeur.

Guan Ning took a deep breath and opened it gently.

Even Zheng Congwu, the third most important person in the Zheng family, didn't know what was going on and just stared at it intently.

When the box was opened, a square jade was seen quietly placed inside. It looked very grand and precious, and there were some lifelike animals carved on it.

"This is..." Zheng Congwu murmured.

Guan Ning frowned, feeling as if he had seen it before, but couldn't put his finger on it.

He reached out and picked it up subconsciously. The moment the jade left the box, some mechanism at the bottom seemed to be activated. With a click, the entire dungeon erupted with a roar, as if something was opened.

"Not good!" Guan Ning was shocked, his whole body tensed up, and he was ready to avoid the mechanism in an instant.

Zheng Congwu was so frightened that he sat on the ground.

But the imagined assassination did not happen, and after a loud bang, everything returned to calm.

a long time.

Guan Ning breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the square piece of jade again. Suddenly, his eyes focused. Why did the carving on it look so much like... a dragon?

He sensed something was wrong, his face changed slightly, and he quickly looked towards the bottom. There was an inscription of "Mandate from Heaven, May You Live Long and Prosper!"

The eight characters are written in a majestic and powerful style, as if they possess some kind of magic power. From ancient times to the present, they have driven countless kings, princes, generals and ministers crazy!

Guan Ning was horrified on the spot, his facial expression uncontrollable, his eyes filled with disbelief: "The Imperial Seal!!"

"Why are you here?"

Hearing this, Zheng Congwu's eyes widened, and he looked at everything in front of him blankly. He knew all the secrets of the crypt, but he really didn't know about this jade seal: "How is it possible..."

At the same time, outside, the entire Xingyang was alarmed.

The ancient Zheng family's complete form has revived, like a sleeping dragon.

"The Patriarch has ordered a blockade of the entire city! Blockade the entire city!"

"No one is allowed to enter or leave!"

"quick!"

Shouts and torches rang out as a large number of Zheng clan members picked up weapons and rushed towards the Tower of Longevity.

"We come to see the head of the family!" Outside the Longevity Tower, there was already thunder and lightning, and it was surrounded by heavy enemies.

"Master, Master, I don't know what's going on..." A middle-aged man in brocade clothes was kneeling on the ground begging.

"You do not know?"

"You don't know, then our Locking Dragon Well is open? Why?" Zheng Yuan roared. The Zheng family's boss, who was usually scheming and serious, was furious at this moment.

The Suolong Well is connected to the underground cave, which is connected to the biggest secret of the Zheng family in Xingyang. Once it is opened, it means that the place has been found.

How could Zheng Yuan not be excited?

boom!

He hit the middle-aged man's head with a stick, causing blood to ooze out on the spot.

"what!!"

Hearing the screams, all the clan members around were shocked. Lord Zheng Tong was the nephew of the head of the family and was responsible for the security inside and outside the Changsheng Tower. Even he was punished like this, which showed how serious the matter was.

Standing behind, Yan Qing, dressed in gray, had a flickering look in his eyes. Could it be that Brother Ning had discovered the secret?

Immediately afterwards, his palms couldn't help but sweat. What he saw was that the ancient Zheng family had been completely alarmed. All the masters came out, and the clansmen blocked all the important roads. Even ordinary people joined in. How could he escape with such a situation?

Even someone as strong as Yan Qing began to feel a little scared.

"what!"

"Master, no, no!"

"I really don't know anything. There was nothing unusual in the Tower of Longevity tonight. Only the Third Master was here, the Third Master was here!" Zheng Tong fell to the ground wailing. His head was broken and bleeding, and he was shouting with all his might at this moment.
