Chapter 264: Chapter 223: The Palace Coup_3
Who knew that Liang Hong had the unique skill of sleeping while standing!
He actually managed to outlast both of them!
This left the two men in agony.
It’s not like the princes can just leave without the eunuchs clocking out first, right?
It’s just watching a door, is there really a need for such competition?
In the end, Liu and Zhang really couldn’t take it anymore, so they tried to report Liang Hong’s situation to the Eunuch Steward inside the room.
The Eunuch Stewards couldn’t decide what to do and could only wait to report to Liang Heng when he returned.
“He has been waiting at the door for more than ten days, what exactly does he want to do?”
The Rites Steward hurriedly said, “Replying to Your Ancestor, our people went to inquire about it. It is said that Prince Chu has found an Evil-Expelling Talisman and wishes to offer it to the Emperor of Liang to eliminate evil from His Majesty’s body.”
After hearing this, Liang Heng said, “At least he has some filial piety. But his father has long passed away, I don’t need it; send him away.”
The Judicial Steward said, “Replying to Your Ancestor, Prince Chu did not say he comes to seek an audience with His Majesty, nor did he say what he wants to do, he just stands at the door. It’s inconvenient for us to just send him away directly.”

Liang Heng wondered, “Who taught him this trick? Why does it feel so familiar?”
Nobody answered.
“Nevermind, have him send the talisman in, and then please escort him out.”
“Yes.”
Sending things into the sleeping quarters had precedent, so when Liang Hong’s talisman was sent in, nobody found it strange.
However, as the talisman entered the sleeping quarters, Liang Hong, originally to be sent away, was urgently retained and invited inside!
Liang Hong became the second individual to enter the Emperor’s sleeping quarters after Jiang Cheng!
Liu and Zhang showed looks of surprise, but Liang Hong himself was not surprised.
Jiang Cheng had said, “It’s more useful than sending a communication talisman,” so wasn’t it only natural for his father to invite him into the sleeping quarters because of this?
In the sleeping quarters, Liang Hong saw his father again after many months, but he always felt his father’s demeanor was off.
This inexplicable feeling was also the motivation for Liang Hong’s insistence on having Jiang Cheng make the Evil-Expelling Talisman.
Liang Heng tossed the Electro-Purification Talisman in front of Liang Hong and said, “You call this an Evil-Expelling Talisman?”
“Replying to Father, this is precisely the talisman that your son had someone especially draw up for you.”
Liang Heng burst out laughing.
“Do not think that I am ignorant; this talisman is clearly a weak Healing Talisman, it couldn’t possibly have the effect of expelling evil. You have been deceived by someone.”
Liang Hong said, “Father, Jiang Cheng would not deceive me.”
“Jiang Cheng? Why would you trust him? That boy has been swindling everywhere with a Blank Imperial Decree; he is the least trustworthy.”
But Liang Hong had great confidence in Jiang Cheng. After all, during this time, Jiang Cheng’s words almost always turned into reality, leaving a deep impression on him.
“Father, Jiang Cheng would not deceive me, not to mention that he is also the designated choice by the Void Venerable.”
What kind of nonsense is this Void Venerable?
Liang Heng looked down at Liang Hong and could roughly understand why the Emperor of Liang had been so hesitant to establish a Crown Prince.
Not a single useful son among them; how could he choose?
Liang Heng no longer wanted to argue with Liang Hong, “Enough, I’ll give you a chance to prove it. If this talisman has no effect of expelling evil, you will be punished by being forbidden from the palace for ten years.”
Liang Hong was overjoyed and immediately took the talisman and used it on Liang Heng.
A faint healing effect appeared on Liang Heng’s body, and then there was no other movement.
Liang Heng waved his hand, “Send him… Hm? Who among you is going to undergo Foundation Establishment? Wait, it seems to be myself!”
Liang Heng was shocked.
He was undergoing Foundation Establishment? Did the Heavenly Dao make a mistake?
He was a Divinity Transformation cultivator, and today he was suddenly targeted by the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Tribulation?
Could it be that the tricks he played during his breakthrough to Divinity Transformation were discovered?
Was the Heavenly Dao forcing him to dissipate his cultivation and start over?
How else could one explain the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Tribulation?
Though Liang Heng was of Divinity Transformation cultivation level, getting to where he was today indeed involved a lot of luck. If he had to start over, he had no confidence that he could reach his current status again.
“This is bad! The Heavenly Tribulation is coming! I must not be struck by it!”
Liang Heng took a step and appeared on the edge of the Capital.
However, the Heavenly Tribulation seemed to have a lock on him and chased after him directly.
Liang Heng kept moving, and the tribulation kept following!
With one man and one cloud in pursuit, the skies over Liang Kingdom were clear for thousands of miles.
In the palace, Liang Hong pondered; his father was nimble in form, which must mean the expelling of evil was successful, right?
Isn’t the throne secured for him now?
Listening to the Void Venerable was indeed correct.
