Chapter 216 The Frontier Prince Who Launched the Northern Expedition to the Capital
After seeing their disciple off, Uncle Nine, Qianhe, and Simu headed towards Renjia Town.
They chatted and laughed along the way, not in a hurry to get going.
If anything happens at the mortuary, Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai will send him a telepathic message.
If there's no sound transmission, then everything is fine.
This is one of the reasons why Lin Fengjiao is not in a hurry.
......................
And on the other side.
The underground palace of Empress Dowager Cixi.
At that moment, the frontier prince touched Empress Dowager Cixi, then got up from the bed with a smile.
He has been manipulating events these days, and it can be said that with the help of this dual corpse cultivation technique, his strength has increased by leaps and bounds!
They reached the peak level of the Flying Zombie Realm.
After all, Empress Dowager Cixi had plundered the Qing Dynasty's fortune to achieve her immortality.
He learned from Empress Dowager Cixi, which helped him improve himself. In addition, he was a prince of the royal family, so he had good luck and improved even faster.
"Oh dear, isn't the Prince coming?"
"No, no, even though my kidneys are stiff, I can't stand it!"
The royal prince shook his head and stood up repeatedly.
Empress Dowager Cixi smiled charmingly, then instructed the eunuchs to change her clothes.
Upon arriving at the main hall of the underground palace, Empress Dowager Cixi sat in the main seat, the prince sat below her, and the other zombies stood.
"Now that your strength has increased considerably, I suggest that you all follow me into the capital and retake the Forbidden City!"
These words caused all the zombies to roar out loud, clearly pleased.
They no longer wanted to remain confined in this underground palace; their strength had increased enough to allow them to fight their way back to the capital.
........................
"Dear father, godfather, I am willing to be the vanguard to conquer that brat Guangxu and bring his head to you as a chamber pot!"
Just then, a childish voice rang out.
He is none other than the Wild Zombie King.
That is, the little cub born to the zombie princess at that time.
He mistakenly entered the underground palace and ended up in Cixi's place.
Empress Dowager Cixi saw that he was a promising talent and adopted him as her godson.
Make him call her his biological father.
Of course, Emperor Guangxu also called her his biological father, which many people don't know and think the author made a typo earlier.
In fact, Emperor Guangxu was the son of Empress Dowager Cixi's younger sister, and also her nephew. This special kinship created a unique emotional bond and dependence between Cixi and Guangxu.
After losing her beloved son, the Tongzhi Emperor, Empress Dowager Cixi was in unbearable pain, as if her heart was being gnawed by a thousand poisonous insects. She longed to find solace in this special form of address.
Emperor Guangxu respectfully addressed her as "Dear Father," which felt like a gentle spring breeze, making her feel incredibly close to him, as if she had gained another son, thus satisfying her deepest emotional needs!
The way Emperor Guangxu addressed Empress Dowager Cixi actually contained his deep affection for his mother, and was not as complicated as it seemed. It was not "evidence of his strong desire for power" or "to show his nobility and dignity," but simply a unique Manchu tradition.
"Haha, wonderful! My son is excellent! You will serve as the vanguard alongside my great general to conquer the capital!" Empress Dowager Cixi laughed radiantly, overjoyed.
The little zombie in front of me was born with the supernatural abilities of invisibility and concealment of its aura. Now it has grown stronger and stronger, and has reached the peak of the hairy zombie realm.
They are only one step away from becoming flying zombies; how could ordinary people compare to them?
Otherwise, Wang Daoling wouldn't be in such a hurry to accept him.
..........................
"Thank you for your kindness, dear father!" The little zombie danced with excitement.
However, the zombie general standing to the side sneered, "Little brat, don't be impulsive. Although you have some abilities, the capital is full of hidden talents and extraordinary individuals. The Guangxu Emperor even has a Taoist priest assisting him, so his strength should not be underestimated!"
He truly envied this kid. He was born with the strength of a Black Zombie, and after a little growth, he had reached the peak of a Hairy Zombie. Given time, his achievements would surely be amazing!
Well, even though he himself is already a dead man!
"Taoist priest? Can we eat him?" the little zombie asked curiously.
"Hehe, it's delicious, but also hard to chew!"
"Hmph! How hard is it to chew?" the little zombie scoffed. [From now on, you shall be called the Wild Zombie King!]
"Heh, Taoist magic is naturally a counter to us. Tell me, is it difficult to deal with or not?" The Great General Fei Jiang crossed his arms, his face indifferent.
Although Dao Fa Ke is a zombie, his Great General is a flying zombie!
The Wild Zombie King immediately glared at the Great General Flying Zombie, saying, "Great General, do not underestimate me. Although I am young, I will surely kill the enemy and leave them with nothing but their armor and weapons."
After saying this, the Wild Zombie King hurriedly approached Empress Dowager Cixi and the frontier prince: "Dear Father, just wait and see. I will definitely turn that little Guangxu's palace upside down and let the world know that you, dear Father, are the true ruler."
"Alright, but son, you must be careful and lest you fall into the traps of those Taoist priests and monks," Empress Dowager Cixi cautioned.
The little zombie patted its chest and assured, "Don't worry, dear father, if those stinky Taoist priests dare to block my way, I'll make sure they die a horrible death."
He then made gestures as if biting his neck and tearing his hands and feet.
[For those who are unclear about why he called her "dear father," please refer to historical records for details on why Emperor Guangxu called Empress Dowager Cixi "dear father."]
