Chapter 703: Life and Death Are Difficult
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 long while, Li Chengfeng was extremely bitter, as if he was chewing a yellow lotus in his mouth, and said, "Shouldn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince be in the palace of Shenjing? Why is it here?"
Zhao Feiyue looked at the prince with complicated eyes, and said, "The third brother has been in charge of the country for six years, and he has not been in ......the court for three years."
Li Chengfeng was stunned: "If he doesn't sit in the hall, where else will he go?"
Zhao Feiyue shook her head and said, "Since I was reincarnated, if I admired someone from the bottom of my heart, except for the palace master, there were only two people in the whole world, and one of them was the third brother. Although he is a prince, he can be dignified and square, love the people like a son, and be an upright and righteous person in the world. ”
Li Chengfeng was silent when he heard it, he had heard of the reputation of the prince's sage, but Cheng'an City was too far away from Shenjing, it was the northernmost border location of the entire Great Qi, and it was too close to Lingshan, so although the prince's sage spread here, it did not really attract Li Chengfeng's attention.
In his opinion, this is just an advocacy of praise for merit, and although Zhao Feiyue said so, Li Chengfeng still had deep doubts in his heart.
Li Chengfeng is an easy-going and amiable person on the outside, but firm as iron on the inside, he only believes in his own eyes and ears, and he is half-convinced of any description and judgment of people and things, and he has to come to a conclusion that he believes in his heart through his own observation and judgment.
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 catch up so quickly." If they could have come so quickly, how could the Assassins have come so quickly......"
Li Chengfeng said: "Since you dare to attack the crown prince, then this person must be extraordinary! You are very likely to know each other!"
Zhao Feiyue was silent for a while, and said, "It should be the fourth brother......"
Li Chengfeng's heart sank suddenly, and he said bitterly: "I know ......"
Zhao Feiyue whispered: "My father has five sons and two daughters. Among them, the eldest son, that is, the eldest brother, died at an early age, and the second brother only got it when his father was in his forties. Although the second brother I have never seen, I heard the third brother and the fourth brother say that he has outstanding talents, noble conduct, and has shown the appearance of a saint since he was a child, and his ability and talent are far above the two of them, and he is very admired and worshiped by them. ”
Li Chengfeng's face was solemn, and he said, "But I heard that the second prince died very early, and I heard that he died of a violent illness?"
Zhao Feiyue shook her head and said, "No, it's ...... The second prince wants a palace change. ”
Li Chengfeng was stunned and said: "He wants to rebel and rebel? Can't wait? So he still has a noble character?
Zhao Feiyue looked at Li Chengfeng, serious and dignified, and said almost word by word: "No, he wants to overthrow the Qiankun Divine Sect!"
Li Chengfeng opened his mouth and stammered: "Qiankun Divine Sect?!He?a prince?Is he crazy?"
Zhao Feiyue nodded and said, "The struggle between the royal family and the Divine Sect has lasted for a long time in the past few hundred years, and most of the time the royal family loses and the Divine Sect wins. ”
Li Chengfeng's heart moved, looked at the prince, and said, "Is that possible...... Is it the people of the Qiankun Divine Sect who are chasing and killing the crown prince?"
Zhao Feiyue thought for a while, shook her head and said, "Unlikely." Now that the Qiankun Divine Sect has unprecedented control over Shenjing and the royal family, there is no need for them to kill the crown prince, although the third brother has always disliked the Divine Sect, but they are not afraid of this at all. Because they know that whoever sits in that position must be honored or ...... Their throne will not sit securely!"
Li Chengfeng thought for a while, and then said, "Then why did your fourth brother chase and kill the prince?"
Zhao Feiyue sighed: "Because they are competing for the throne......"
Li Chengfeng was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "That's right, I'm stupid, what other reasons can there be?"
As the so-called heavenly family has no affection, father and son turn against each other, and the matter of brothers' walls has been staged again and again for thousands of years, for that throne, they have succeeded one after another, blood is like ocean, and the bones are like mountains and they will not regret their death.
It's just that...... Fucking the four princes and the crown prince to grab the throne, why the fuck are you involved in the master?!
Li Chengfeng scolded in his heart, and he said bitterly to Zhao Feiyue: "Then I will throw him away now, is it too late?"
Zhao Feiyue looked at Li Chengfeng seriously and said, "Palace Master, Feiyue rarely asks you for one thing, but today Feiyue really hopes that the Palace Master can protect the safety of His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
Li Chengfeng also said solemnly: "Why? As far as I know, you shouldn't have too much affection for this so-called royal family." ”
Zhao Feiyue said with a complicated gaze: "Yes, it's not so much that it is a palace or a home, but that it is just a place where I am imprisoned." But...... The third brother is different, he has been very good at Feiyue since he was a child. Moreover, if the prince dies...... The world is bound to be in chaos!"
Li Chengfeng was puzzled: "If the crown prince dies, then the throne must be the fourth prince, so the turmoil will be reduced!
Zhao Feiyue shook his head and said, "No, the fourth brother is also a talented and moral person. ”
Li Chengfeng was confused: "Why is the world in chaos?"
Zhao Feiyue looked at the prince and said: "Daqi looks like a lot of flowers, but in fact it has been stormy, and the common people are about to be unable to live but they have been gritting their teeth and holding on, but not many people have been rebelling, do you know why?"
Li Chengfeng's heart moved, and he said, "Because of the prince?"
Zhao Feiyue's eyes showed reverence: "Yes, the prince is virtuous, and he spreads far and wide, and the people regard him as hope." The crown prince has been in charge of the country for six years, and has been implementing new policies and refreshing the rule of officials, and the people's lives are getting better and better day by day, although they are still very sad, but they all feel that there is hope. If the third brother dies...... Then the hope in the hearts of the common people is gone, and they ...... It's going to go crazy. ”
Li Chengfeng smiled bitterly: "How unpopular is our emperor?"
Zhao Feiyue showed a slight disdain, and said: "My father has been in power for more than 40 years, except for the first few years of hard work, all the other times he is lazy and lazy, obsessed with beauty all the year round, and does not go to the early dynasty.
Li Chengfeng and Zhao Feiyue were in this wilderness, and they dared to criticize the emperor and the royal family, if they let others hear it, they would have been terrified.
But one of these two people is the reincarnation of Xingjun, and the other is not only the reincarnation of Jin Xian, but also the princess of the Great Qi royal family, so naturally there is no respect for the so-called royal majesty in his heart.
Li Chengfeng thought for a while, and then said: "Since your third brother has decided to be the crown prince and is so virtuous, why does the fourth prince still want to compete with him for the throne?
Zhao Feiyue's eyes showed strong indignation, and said, "Because this is my father's arrangement!"
Li Chengfeng suddenly said: "The emperor is afraid that the crown prince is too powerful to threaten his throne, so he arranged an opponent for him?"
Zhao Feiyue nodded and said, "That's right! The current dispute between the crown prince and the fourth prince for the succession was arranged by the father! The fourth brother is the one who has the ability to hunt down and kill the third brother for reason in the world!"
Li Chengfeng nodded and said, "I understand, I understand!" As he spoke, he looked at Zhao Feiyue seriously and said, "Feiyue, do you think that my little arms and legs can stand it when I am involved in the battle for the heir of this prince?" Or do you actually think that 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 throw him away?"
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, he is involved in the battle for the royal family's succession, even if he is a great cultivator, he will be twisted into powder every minute!
Didn't you see who was chasing and killing the prince?
The top ten devils are out!!
But if you just throw it away, it completely violates Li Chengfeng's principles and intentions, and it 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!
