It made sense for Fang Lin to let Cheng Jinhai guard outside.
In just one day, several groups of people came one after another to visit Fang Lin, including people from all walks of life.
There are some people from the Alchemy family, including older people and younger people.
In addition, there were some so-called big shots from other forces in the Upper Three Kingdoms who wanted to visit Fang Lin, but without exception, they were blocked by Cheng Jinhai.
If it were in the past, Cheng Jinhai, the little master of Henglong Mountain, would not dare to talk to them when he saw so many big guys from all sides.
But now, Cheng Jinhai was able to stop them very forcefully and told them that Master Fang was resting and no visitors were allowed.
Those who came to see Fang Lin also had no temper at all. You can't get angry at a gatekeeper if you don't see Fang Lin, right? This is too low.
Besides, it didn't matter if he couldn't see Fang Lin, but if he made trouble outside Fang Lin's yard, he might cause trouble.
Nowadays, no one in the Nine Kingdoms knows that behind Fang Lin is the behemoth of the Tiantian Palace. Even the royal family of the Three Kingdoms probably would not dare to provoke Fang Lin.
Moreover, even if Fang Lin does not have the Tiantian Temple behind him, just based on Fang Lin's past reputation, not everyone can be offended.
Although Cheng Jinhai was guarding the door for Fang Lin, he felt very proud at this moment.
"I didn't expect that I, Old Cheng, would be where I am today. Those big guys from various parties probably didn't take a serious look at me, Old Cheng, when they saw me in the past. Now I, Old Cheng, won't take a serious look at you either." Cheng Jinhai was secretly proud.
As dusk approached, another group of people entered the post house and wanted to meet Fang Lin.
This group of people is really well-established. The leader is wearing a purple robe with a winding and soaring golden dragon embroidered with gold thread.
In this Tang capital, only the royal family's children are qualified to wear this golden dragon and purple robe.
It was obvious that the young man headed by this man was definitely a member of the Tang royal family, and perhaps one of the contemporary Tang Emperor's princes had arrived in person.
The young man in the golden dragon and purple robe looks to be in his twenties, with clear features, red lips and white teeth. He is very good-looking, but at first glance he does not look masculine and looks a bit weak.
Behind this young man, stood four middle-aged men in green clothes. These four people had restrained auras and sharp eyes. Just standing there was enough to intimidate people.
As soon as Cheng Jinhai saw these people coming, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Especially when he saw the four middle-aged men in Tsing Yi, he felt frightened.
Although Cheng Jinhai is only the mountain master, he still has good eyesight. The young man who looks completely naked is probably a member of the royal family, and the four guys standing behind this young man are probably sent by the royal family to protect him. Master.
Cheng Jinhai looked at the four middle-aged men, thinking that he might not be able to defeat any of them.
"Excuse me, old man, does Master Fang Linfang live here?" The young man came closer, his attitude seemed approachable, and he asked Cheng Jinhai with cupped hands and fists.
Cheng Jinhai did not dare to neglect, and returned the salute with clasped fists: "Master Fang does live here, I wonder who you are?"
The young man smiled slightly: "My Excellency, Li Zhongxin, came especially to pay homage to Master Fang Linfang."
When Cheng Jinhai heard the name Li Zhongxin, his expression suddenly changed. The reason was that the name of the second prince of the Tang Dynasty was Li Zhongxin.
"It turns out to be His Highness the Second Prince. I, Cheng Jinhai of Henglong Mountain, am here to pay my respects to His Highness." Cheng Jinhai saluted quickly, not being as impatient as he was with other people.
After all, Cheng Jinhai’s Henglong Mountain is still within the territory of the Tang Kingdom and is subject to the jurisdiction and restrictions of the Tang royal family. He is the dignified second prince of the Tang Kingdom. If you, the owner of Henglong Mountain, dare to be so presumptuous in front of this prince, , it is estimated that Henglongshan will be suppressed by the royal family the next day.
Moreover, Cheng Jinhai also knew that His Royal Highness the Second Prince Li Zhongxin was extraordinary among the many princes of the Tang Kingdom.
The contemporary Tang Emperor has eleven sons. The eldest prince, Li Jianwu, has now been canonized as the prince. He is also a rare martial arts genius. He is only in his early forties, and he already has a small immortality. He is highly regarded by the Tang Emperor. Therefore, He was conferred the position of crown prince early. In the opinion of many people, after the Emperor of Tang abdicates in the future, Prince Li Jianwu will basically inherit the position of Emperor of Tang, take charge of the huge Tang Kingdom, and become the person with the highest status in the Three Kingdoms.
But in recent years, Li Jianwu had made many mistakes one after another, and was reprimanded by Emperor Tang. Once, Emperor Tang was so angry that he even wanted to depose Li Jianwu as the crown prince.
Of course, this is just the meaning in the words, and it does not really abolish Li Jianwu's position as prince.
At this time, the second prince Li Zhongxin, the seemingly weak young man in front of Cheng Jinhai, suddenly exerted his strength. Although his martial arts strength has not caught up with his eldest brother Li Jianwu, he is well-known in other aspects. Many talented people in the Tang Kingdom People of high status were full of praise for Li Zhongxin.
There are also some rumors that the contemporary Tang Emperor once asked the old Prime Minister about the successor of the Tang Emperor when he was talking to the old Prime Minister who had abdicated.
The old prime minister even commented on the eleventh son of the Tang Emperor. Except for the tenth and eleventh princes who were too young to inherit the throne, the other princes had opportunities.
Among them, the old prime minister focused on the second prince Li Zhongxin. Although he did not make it too clear, the old prime minister obviously meant that he was more optimistic about Li Zhongxin, not the prince Li Jianwu.
Although the rumors are not credible, at least among these princes, Li Zhongxin does have the capital to compete with Prince Li Jianwu.
Cheng Jinhai felt a little uneasy, because the Second Prince standing in front of him might very well be the Supreme Emperor of the Tang Dynasty in the future.
In other words, the person in front of Cheng Jinhai is the future Emperor of Tang Dynasty. How can this not make Cheng Jinhai uneasy
"Master Cheng Shan, you are so polite. Could you please inform Master Cheng that I would like to visit Master Fang." Li Zhongxin said with a smile.
Cheng Jinhai was in a bit of a dilemma now. Fang Lin had told him not to see anyone who came to visit him.
But he was the second prince of the Tang Dynasty, and he was very likely to become a big figure in the Tang Dynasty in the future. Cheng Jinhai definitely did not dare to refuse.
"Your Highness, please come in." Fortunately, Fang Lin's voice sounded from inside in time, making Cheng Jinhai breathe a sigh of relief.
"Your Highness, please come in." Cheng Jinhai opened the courtyard door and welcomed Li Zhongxin and his party in, while he remained outside.
Fang Lin was still lying on the bamboo chair. When Li Zhongxin and the four guards came closer, Fang Lin still didn't get up.
The four guards all frowned, with a bit of anger on their faces, but Li Zhongxin was calm and not dissatisfied at all.
