From Joy of Life, the Tian Gang is reversed

Chapter 8 Roulette Speculation

Chapter 8 Roulette Speculation
Li Chengqian walked out of Minghu Palace, and before he had taken a few steps, he saw another young eunuch hurrying over.

"Your Highness, the Queen has summoned you."

This is also expected.

However, when he thought of his mother, Li Chengqian felt a headache.

Back then, this queen was also a prominent figure. Her mother's family was powerful, and she was the queen. Even Her Royal Highness the Princess had to avoid her when she met her.

But since the queen's family power was wiped out five years ago, her temperament has changed drastically. Since then, she has been hiding in the deep palace, and she doesn't even ask much about the affairs of the harem, and places all her hopes on him.

Emperor Qing was satisfied, but he was miserable.

It is precisely because of this that the predecessor feels suffocated by being controlled.

It was precisely because of this feeling of oppression that he had a conflict with the eldest prince three years ago. This was because he was controlled too strictly, which led to a rebellious mentality.

Otherwise, how could an eight-year-old child think of competing with his older brother for a maid?
Now that the maid is still in the East Palace, he doesn’t know what to do.

Following the eunuch to the back hall, before entering the main hall, I saw Her Royal Highness the Queen pacing back and forth in the hall, looking a little uneasy.

"Your son greets the Queen Mother." Li Chengqian stepped forward and bowed.

As a fully mature person in terms of thinking, he would never allow anyone to catch him in any way when it comes to etiquette.

"Cheng Qian, what's wrong with you?

Why did you treat Master Gu like that?
Who told you to do that, Li Yunrui? Or the Queen Mother?

A series of questions came out of the queen's mouth like a machine gun.

Li Chengqian's expression remained unchanged, but he was smiling in his heart.

So, Li Yunrui should be having a headache now, right?
Although what happened in Guangning Palace today was his spur-of-the-moment decision.

But, he is the prince!

The Queen Mother also said that he should be cautious in his words and deeds, and no matter what he does, there will be many people helping him interpret it, and great scholars will help him debate the scriptures.

He had just had lunch in the Empress Dowager's palace at noon, and the eldest princess Li Yunrui was also there.

In the afternoon, Gu Qing, a well-known tutor among the scholars, was expelled.

There is no way an eleven-year-old child could do this.

You can't help but make people think too much.

"Mother, what's wrong with you? I'm just an editor in the Imperial Academy..."

"You're just a Hanlin editor? You're so arrogant!
Do you know who Gu Qing is?
He was the eldest disciple of the dean of Qishan Academy, the face of his generation at Qishan Academy, the top scorer in the imperial examination, and a clear-cut figure in the literati circle.

You humiliated him today, and you humiliated not only him but also the entire Qishan Academy.

There is also the Hanlin Academy, and even all the upright officials in the court..."

"Mother, you are the Empress, the head of the harem, and the mother of the nation. How can a mere number one scholar make you lose your composure like this?"

"Didn't you hear me? He's not just an ordinary top scholar, he's...!"

"I know the reputation of Qishan Academy." Li Chengqian looked at the Queen and said word by word, "The prince's tutor is a very important position. Although Gu Qing is the top scholar, his qualifications are too shallow. Logically speaking, it is impossible for him to become a tutor, but in the end, he was forced in.

There must be some force behind this.

The purpose is to use him to exert influence on us princes.

I know all this.

I kicked him out because he wanted to improve too much, was eager to show himself, and was eager to influence me. I didn't want to be influenced by him or the people behind him.

I don't want to get involved in court affairs at this time." "Cheng Qian, you...!"

"Mother, my father is in the prime of his life." Li Chengqian stepped forward, walked in front of the queen, and whispered something. The queen's face suddenly froze.

Li Chengqian then took a few steps back and said loudly, "Father will make the final decision on this matter. You should not get involved. In the future, don't get involved with those ladies of high rank either. They are not ordinary women. Each of them has different officials and families behind them, and they all have different standpoints. If you always listen to them, you will suffer."

The Queen seemed to have thought of something. The corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and her expression changed instantly. She was silent for a long while before she said with a worried tone, "Cheng Qian, I'm just worried about you!!"

"There's no need for that, mother. I'm still a child. Who among the bigwigs in the court would bother with a child?" Li Chengqian said.

"What if someone really cares?"

"They are courting death. Father will take care of them."

※※※

The moon is at its zenith, frost falls on earth

It's midnight and I'm dreaming
Inside the East Palace bedroom
Li Chengqian sat quietly in front of the window, looking at the full moon outside. His expression was clear, but his mind was full of thoughts.
Just now, he received information from the Wheel of Heavens again.

Six of the chosen ones died, and one fell into a state of near death.

The Wheel of Heavens opened the call for conscription again, but this time Li Chengqian was not summoned
But the information from the two times and his own experience in the Hunter x Hunter world have already given him a preliminary judgment on the Roulette of the Heavens.

First, he is not the only one who possesses the Wheel of the Heavens. In fact, he is just one of the many chosen ones in the world of the heavens, so he is not the destined protagonist.

Second, the selected ones may have different permissions. Jack in the Hunter x Hunter world should have higher permissions than him because he seems to be able to interact with the roulette and initiate conscription, while he is just passively receiving messages from the roulette. It is also possible that the conscripted ones will have this permission when they are in a state of certain death. Everything remains to be confirmed.

Similarly, when talking with Jack, he had some thoughts. Judging from the other party's reaction, it can be judged that there may be a competitive relationship between the different selected candidates. The other party may subconsciously think that he is eliminating competitors, so he launched an attack on himself regardless of everything and ended up trapping himself.

Third, the Roulette of the Heavens may have some wisdom, but its IQ is not high, and it is also unable to monitor all the chosen ones, otherwise he would not have been forcibly recruited last time.

Fourth, the Roulette of the Heavens has the ability to travel through the world, and one of the ways is through conscription. This can be seen from the last forced conscription. In addition to this, there may be other ways, so you can't be careless just because the world you are in now is safe.

Fifth, not all of the chosen ones are the protagonists, otherwise there would not be news of deaths from time to time.

Sixth, the purpose of the Wheel of Heavens is unclear. It is not ruled out that there is a bigger black hand behind the Wheel of Heavens manipulating it in secret, but these are not something he can access now.

Now he is just a little Karami.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the world he lives in is not very dangerous.

Especially someone of his status.
As long as you stay safe and sound, there is basically no danger.

In my mind, the sound of the Wheel of Heavens disappeared with a "ding" sound.

Li Chengqian straightened up, took a stance, raised his fists, and moved his feet like a strong bull.

'Bull Demon's top corner', 'Bull Demon's hooves', 'Bull Demon's carrying of leather'.

Slowly, the Bull Demon's powerful punch was unleashed, the movements were slow but extremely focused.

As he moved, his muscles gradually arched, and a strong energy and blood were steaming around his body. If someone was present at this moment, they would find that Li Chengqian's body at this moment was like a furnace, emitting a violent heat of energy and blood.

This was his first time practicing the Bull Demon Fist. Since there was no other place, he could only practice it here.

The East Palace, the East Palace, is his residence in theory, but in fact it is like a sieve, and his every move is in the eyes of others.

Fortunately, this Bull Demon's Powerful Fist only has three moves, and it is a training method that does not make much noise when practicing. In addition, with the blessing of the "Heaven Rewards Hard Work" entry that he got for free, after a few exercises, he has basically mastered this boxing style. As long as he persists, this boxing style will surely be perfected.

But he didn't dare to practice too much. After all, he was still a child and was still in the growth and development period. What if he practiced too much and didn't grow taller?
What's more, he is not in a hurry. He is only eleven years old now and is already a third-grade warrior.

 Sigh, in order to improve efficiency, I used voice input first and then modified it. Because my Mandarin is not standard and I didn't pay attention when modifying it, there may be some typos. Please forgive me.
