Chapter 403: Longtan Tiger's Den
At this time, a subordinate hurriedly entered the temple, looking left and right, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped.
"It's okay, it's all henchmen here, and they have something to say. The prince said with a big grin.
"Yes, Your Highness, the villain's spies in the county lord's mansion have reported, and the county lord has woken up!"
"How is it possible, shouldn't a person who has been bitten by a seven-colored needle snake die in a coma?" the prince was puzzled.
"I heard that it was a Shannan monk who made a move and caught the seven-colored needle snake. "Humanity.
"Shannan also has such talents, it's interesting, what is the situation of the county lord now?" a purple-eyed woman behind the envoy surnamed Feng said with a smile, as she spoke, her long, pointed nails gently scratched the back of the chair, and her sharp and high-pitched voice shook everyone's hearts, but no one dared to say anything.
"Holy envoy, I heard that the county lord has fully recovered, and he is talking with the hibiscus fairy and others, I don't know what he is plotting!" replied.
"Nonsense! My seven-colored needle snake is extremely poisonous, even if it is barely saved, how can there be nothing at all?!" The purple-eyed woman's smile suddenly disappeared, and her face was instantly filled with evil energy.
At this time, I heard a scream, and the man fell to the ground, and then colorful blisters appeared all over his body, and the flesh rotted, and then turned into a puddle of pus and blood.
Originally, the purple-eyed woman's side was the emptiest, and when the other subordinates saw this terrifying scene, they were even more frightened birds, hiding far away, and the purple-eyed woman was empty within ten zhang of her body.
This purple-eyed woman is full of earth-shattering poisonous skills, I heard that the seven-colored needle snake was ordered by her, so easily poisoned a monk, she didn't even know what means to use, and she was moody, it was really terrible, how could the prince's subordinates dare to approach.
"Lu Wenxia, why did my subordinate offend you, and you want to kill him?" The prince frowned slightly, and asked a little angrily, the life of a subordinate is nothing, but this woman kills people in front of the prince, it is too faceless, which makes the prince very unhappy.
"He's talking nonsense, naturally damn it, the county lord was bitten by my seven-colored needle snake, it can't be completely fine, even if it's good, he will be half a waste in the future. Lu Wenxia resumed her laughter, as if the bloodstained corpse on the ground did not exist.
Two envoys came to Fengyimen of the Great Zhou, the main envoy Feng Qianning and the deputy envoy Lu Wenxia.
The core disciples of Fengyimen will change their surnames to Feng, in order to show their loyalty and selflessness to Fengyimen.
Feng Qianning is higher than Lu Wenxia in terms of status and cultivation, but in this palace, I am afraid that everyone is more afraid of Lu Wenxia.
"Anyway, my beautiful sister is not dead, and I have to ask the two messengers for what to do next. The prince said.
"It's good to break into the county lord's mansion directly and kill everyone, I think I'll meet the Shannan monk who dares to capture my snake. Lu Wenxia's face was cold.
"No, if you do this, the prince will lose the hearts of the people, and it will be unjustifiable to ascend the throne in the future, and it is not yet this step. Feng Qianning shook her head and said.
Listening to Feng Qianning's words, the prince nodded slightly, Ji Mingyue has a very high reputation in the Xuanwu Kingdom, and her cultivation and governing ability are far superior to herself, if it weren't for the status of the prince, he would have no chance of winning the competition with Ji Mingyue, for this sister, he was really a little jealous, and he didn't want to openly tear his face.
"If you don't let you fight, it's impossible to poison it, but you have an idea?" Lu Wenxia said.
"Prince, can you ask the emperor to issue an order to arrest Ji Mingyue?" Feng Qianning thought for a while, her address to the prince and the emperor was simple, without any respect, and the prince was not surprised, you must know that in the Great Zhou, Fengyimen is a behemoth far superior to the Xuanwu Kingdom, and as an envoy of the Shangzong, it is natural not to take a small country like the Xuanwu Kingdom in his eyes.
"Impossible, my father loves my sister very much, and I can't convince him. The prince said without thinking.
"You don't even have the ability to influence the emperor, you're so useless. Lu Wenxia said unceremoniously.
"Envoy Lu, how can you talk to the prince like this?" Even the strong man who had been putting on a flattering face was flushed, and he couldn't listen to it anymore, so he accused Lu Wenxia of saying.
The prince's face turned pale at first, and then he laughed twice and said, "Lao Qiang, don't you need to say more to her, do you Fengyimen know that I'm useless? That's right, I'm useless, otherwise, you wouldn't have supported my shrewd and capable sister before." ”
"It's just that I don't understand, why did you abandon your sister and support me instead?"
The prince's face was puzzled, and his tone was a little gloomy, seeing that the people of Fengyi Sect were so domineering, even if he finally ascended the throne, I am afraid that there would be no fun at all.
But he had no other choice but to go all the way to the dark.
"Because she rejected matrilineal clan reforms. Feng Qianning said lightly.
"Just for this?" the prince was shocked, he never imagined that this was the reason.
The so-called matrilineal clan reform is to restore the ancient maternal clan society, where the family respects women, such as children and mother's surnames, and women have exclusive inheritance rights.
When the prince heard Feng Yimen's request, he didn't think about it, and agreed casually.
In the prince's opinion, for the sake of the throne, this is not a matter at all, and the most affected by this reform are those ordinary people and lower-level monks, and the middle and upper-class monks will not be affected, after all, although Fengyimen is powerful, it can't manage every monk's family affairs.
"Is Mingyue pumping her brain, isn't she also a woman, why do you refuse the reform of the matriarchal society?" the prince wondered.
"Ji Mingyue wants to learn from Xiguo, engage in martial arts, everyone is equal, and allocate cultivation resources according to the exam. Feng Qianning's eyes also showed a bit of pity.
"Hahahaha...... "The prince laughed loudly, "Mingyue is too naïve, what kind of exam, who does well in the exam is not up to the imperial court, Fengyimen's matriarchal reform, returning to the simple and peaceful ancient society, is the right path." ”
Feng Qianning, who originally had a cold face, listened to the prince's words, although she knew that she was not sincere, she also showed a slight smile.
Carrying out matriarchal social reform has always been the lofty goal of Fengyimen, and Feng Qianning, as a core disciple of Fengyimen, naturally takes this goal as his own responsibility.
Although Feng Qianning was not very satisfied with the prince, after all, the prince was a man, but from another point of view, the prince was more obedient than the county lord, and Fengyimen would be able to control the Xuanwu Kingdom more conveniently, but it would be better.
As for the gender of the crown prince, it is also easy to solve, choose one of his daughters to join the Fengyi Sect, and wait for the crown prince to ascend the throne after his death.
"If Mingyue doesn't solve it, it's a big trouble after all. The prince sighed and said.
"I have a way to get her into the palace, and then I'll let us knead it. Feng Qianning said.
"Let her enter the palace, how is it possible, the palace is the Longtan Tiger's Den for her, as long as she has a little brain, she will not enter the palace. The prince shook his head.
Feng Qianning smiled without saying a word, a confident light appeared in her eyes.
The prince wondered, could it be that Feng Qianning really had any clever plan?
Feng Qianning's words next made the prince's face change greatly, his body trembled, and he almost couldn't stand steadily.
It's terrible, this woman is terrible!
