Li Chengfeng and Zhao Feiyue both looked at the unconscious Crown Prince in silence, as if they were looking at a huge trouble.
After a while, Li Chengfeng said bitterly, as if he was chewing yellow lotus in his mouth: "Shouldn't His Highness be in the palace in Shenjing? Why are you here?"
Zhao Feiyue looked at the prince with complicated eyes and said: "Third brother has been in charge of the country for six years, and he has been absent from the court for three years..."
Li Chengfeng said in shock: "If he doesn't sit in the hall, then where else will he go? Play around?"
Zhao Feiyue shook his head and said: "Since my reincarnation, if I admire someone from the bottom of my heart, apart from the palace master, there are only two people in the world, and one of them is the third brother. Although he is a prince, he is dignified and upright. He loves his people like his own son and is the most upright and righteous person in the world."
Li Chengfeng was silent when he heard this. He had heard of the reputation of the Crown Prince as wise, but Cheng'an City was too far away from Shenjing. It was at the northernmost border of Da Qi and too close to Lingshan. Therefore, although the Crown Prince's wisdom spread to Here, it didn't really attract Li Chengfeng's attention.
In his opinion, this was nothing more than praise and advocacy. Moreover, even though Zhao Feiyue said this, Li Chengfeng still had deep doubts in his heart.
Li Chengfeng is a person who is easy-going and approachable on the outside, but is as firm as iron on the inside. He only believes in his own eyes and ears. He is dubious about any description and judgment of people and things. He has to rely on his own observation and Judgment will lead to a conclusion that you believe in your heart.
Li Chengfeng said: "So, he came here to provide disaster relief?"
Zhao Feiyue thought for a while and said: "Not necessarily, because the disaster here happened too suddenly, and the third brother may not be able to rush here so quickly. If he can really rush here so quickly, then if the assassin can follow him so quickly..."
Li Chengfeng said: "Since you dare to attack the prince, then this person must be a big deal! You probably know him too!"
Zhao Feiyue was silent for a while and said: "It should be fourth brother..."
Li Chengfeng's heart sank suddenly, and he said bitterly: "I knew it..."
Zhao Feiyue whispered: "My father has five sons and two daughters. Among them, the eldest son, the eldest brother, died in his early years, and the second brother was only born when my father was in his forties. It is natural for my father to have a son in his old age. I am overjoyed and favored in every possible way. Although I have never met the second brother, I heard from the third and fourth brothers that he has outstanding talents and noble conduct. He has shown the appearance of a saint since he was a child, and his ability and talent are far superior to the two of them. , very respected and worshiped by them.”
Li Chengfeng looked solemn and said, "But I heard that the second prince died very early, didn't he? I heard that he died of a sudden illness?"
Zhao Feiyue shook her head and said, "No, it's... the second prince wants to change the palace."
Li Chengfeng was shocked and said: "Is he going to rebel? Can't wait any longer? How can he still be noble and noble like this? Can he return to the status of a holy king?"
Zhao Feiyue looked at Li Chengfeng, seriously and solemnly, and said almost word for word: "No, he wants to overthrow the Qiankun Divine Sect!"
Li Chengfeng was speechless: "Qiankun Divine Cult?! Him? A prince? Is he crazy?"
Zhao Feiyue nodded and said: "The struggle between the royal family and the divine religion has lasted for hundreds of years. Most of the time, the royal family lost and the divine religion won."
Li Chengfeng's heart moved, he looked at the prince and said, "Is it possible... that someone from the Qiankun Divine Sect is chasing the prince?"
Zhao Feiyue thought for a while, shook his head and said: "It's unlikely. Now the Qiankun Divine Sect has unprecedented control over Shenjing and the royal family. There is no need for them to kill the prince. Although the third brother has always disliked the Divine Sect, they are not afraid of this at all. Because they know that no matter who sits in that position, they must respect them, otherwise... their throne will not be stable!"
Li Chengfeng thought for a moment and then said, "Then why does your fourth brother want to hunt down the prince?"
Zhao Feiyue sighed: "Because they are competing for the throne..."
Li Chengfeng was stunned for a moment, then said with a wry smile: "Yes, I am stupid. Apart from that, what other reasons could there be?"
As the saying goes, the Tian family is merciless, father and son are at odds with each other, and the feud between brothers has been happening again and again for thousands of years. For the sake of the throne, they fought one after another with blood like oceans and mountains of bones, but they never regretted it.
It's just... The fourth fucking prince is fighting against the crown prince for the throne, why the hell do you want me to get involved too? !
Li Chengfeng cursed loudly in his heart, and said bitterly to Zhao Feiyue: "Then is it too late for me to leave him and run away now?"
Zhao Feiyue looked at Li Chengfeng seriously and said: "Palace Master, Feiyue rarely asks you for anything, but today Feiyue really hopes that the Palace Master can protect the safety of His Highness the Crown Prince."
Li Chengfeng also said seriously: "Why? As far as I know, you don't have much feelings for this so-called royal family."
Zhao Feiyue said with complicated eyes: "Yes, it is not so much a palace or a home, but a place where I am imprisoned. But... the third brother is different. He has treated Feiyue very well since he was a child. Moreover, if the prince dies... The world must be in chaos!"
Li Chengfeng said in confusion: "If the prince dies, the throne must belong to the fourth prince, so the turmoil will be reduced! Could it be that the fourth prince is a bastard?"
Zhao Feiyue shook his head and said: "No, the fourth brother is also a person with extraordinary talents and outstanding moral character."
Li Chengfeng was confused: "Why is there so much chaos in the world?"
Zhao Feiyue looked at the prince and said: "Daqi looks like a flower, but in fact it is in turmoil. The people are struggling to survive, but not many people have risen up to rebel. Do you know why?"
Li Chengfeng's heart moved and he asked, "Because of the prince?"
Zhao Feiyue's eyes showed reverence: "Yes, the prince is wise and has spread far and wide. The people regard him as hope. The prince has been in charge of the country for six years and has been implementing new policies and refreshing the government. The people's lives are getting better day by day. , although they are still very sad, they all feel that there is hope. If the third brother dies... then the hope in the hearts of the people will be gone, and they... will definitely go crazy. "
Li Chengfeng smiled bitterly and said, "How unpopular is our emperor?"
Zhao Feiyue showed a slight look of disdain and said: "My father has been in power for more than forty years. Except for working hard in the first few years, the rest of the time he was idle and lazy. He was obsessed with beauty all the year round. He didn't go to court in the morning. So big He has made the people of this country miserable and in decline! If it hadn’t been for the third brother to clean up the country in the past few years, I’m afraid there would have been wars everywhere!”
Li Chengfeng and Zhao Feiyue were daringly criticizing the emperor and the royal family in this wilderness. If other people had heard it, they would have been frightened out of their wits.
But one of these two people is the reincarnation of Xingjun, and the other is not only the reincarnation of Jinxian, but also the princess of the Daqi royal family. Naturally, they have no respect for the so-called royal majesty.
Li Chengfeng thought for a while and then said: "Since your third brother has determined the position of prince and is so virtuous, why does the fourth prince still want to compete with him for the throne? Isn't this courting death?"
Zhao Feiyue's eyes showed strong indignation and said: "Because this is my father's arrangement!"
Li Chengfeng suddenly realized: "The emperor was afraid that the prince would be too powerful and threaten his throne, so he arranged an opponent for him?"
Zhao Feiyue nodded and said: "That's right! The current battle between the crown prince and the fourth prince was arranged by my father! The only person in the world who has the reason to chase and kill the third brother is the fourth brother!"
Li Chengfeng nodded and said: "I understand, I understand everything!" As he said that, he looked at Zhao Feiyue seriously and said: "Feiyue, do you think my little arms and legs are involved in the prince's affairs?" Can you bear it in the battle for the right to inherit the throne? Or, in fact, do you think I abandoned you in my previous life, and you are here to take revenge in this life?"
Zhao Feiyue wanted to laugh and pursed her lips, but she didn't laugh. She said, "So, are you going to abandon him?"
This sentence really stumped Li Chengfeng. He really didn't want to get involved in such a terrifying power struggle.
Although he is a cultivator, if he is involved in the royal family's battle to seize the heir, even if he is a great cultivator, he will be turned into powder in minutes!
Haven't you seen who are the people who are chasing the prince
The top ten demons are out! !
But if you just leave it alone, it completely goes against Li Chengfeng's principles and intentions, and will leave a big gap and flaw in his mind in the future!
Thinking of this, Li Chengfeng was in a dilemma.
To save or not to save, this is a matter of life and death!
