Dingtianfu.

As the Kyoto of Daqing, Dingtianfu has always been very stable, whether it is people's livelihood, climate, or public security, it has been the same for decades.

In the same way, there is also the daily pastime of the people - lace gossip.

No one dared to spread the news about the affairs in the palace, and the affairs of the Gaomen compound could not be reported, and it was all trivial between the neighbors.

It's so bland and tasteless.

But this day is different.

"Have you heard? The Chengguo Mansion was in a state of silence, and I don't know who died. ”

"I have heard that I have just passed by far away, and as for who died...... Who else could there be besides Lao Chengguogong? ”

"Indeed, Chengguo Gong has a life span of nearly eighty, right? It's time to die, too. ”

“……”

News like this kind was quietly spread in private, and even some small aristocratic families were involved, and there were constant discussions.

Chengguo Mansion, main hall.

The 'damned' Chengguo Gong Duan Rufeng sat on the main seat.

Just sitting like that, the tall and majestic body has its own majesty.

It's just that his eyes are closed, his face is calm, and there is no sadness or anger in it.

In addition to Cheng Guogong, there is also a middle-aged man with a simple face, who is Duan Yuanyang, the eldest son of Cheng Guogong.

This honest-looking man roared with great anger at this time.

"Bold, bold!"

"Innocent, how dare he do such a thing?"

"That's his father after all!"

"What misunderstanding between father and son cannot be eliminated?"

"Do you have to get to the point of cannibalism?"

"If it spreads, where will we put the face of the Chengguo Mansion?"

"Father, where should you put your face?!"

"Pity my wise and martial second brother, who is about to break through the realm, and in the future, he may even let the Duan family have two dukes...... He died like that! ”

"This Seed ......"

Duan Yuanyang's beard was all open, he trembled with anger, and he scolded for half an hour before stopping, and hugged his fist towards the head, "Father, the child is not talented, and he is willing to lead the Chisong Army to catch that evil seed back!" ”

"You ......"

Duan Rufeng slowly opened his eyes, "Are you so happy?" ”

"Open...... What did my father mean by that? ”

Duan Yuanyang's face was sluggish, "The death of the second brother has made the child's heartache unbearable, how can he be happy?!" ”

"Because you think that the second brother is dead, and your nephew has done such a thing, I will definitely not pass on the position to him."

Duan Rufeng explained for his eldest son, "Is that right? ”

Poof.

Duan Yuanyang knelt down directly, trembling, frightened and angry: "Father is wronged!" A child can swear to God, never so! ”

"Oh? Is it? ”

Duan Rufeng's tone was always calm, "Then let me ask you, is there any Xiangyi, how do you plan to find out the innocence?" ”

"This kid has a plan!"

Duan Yuanyang straightened up and said confidently: "We know the true face of that evil seed, as long as we write his name on the sky net, it is useless to let him escape to the ends of the earth!" ”

"Skynet?"

Duan Rufeng's tone rose slightly, "You mean, let me, at my age, with a shy old face, go to borrow a Taoist device from the red skin to deal with our own family's family affairs?" ”

"This ......"

Duan Yuanyang lowered his head, his eyes flickered: "The child knows that the ugliness of the family cannot be publicized, but the death of the second brother can't be concealed at all, even a few of Zhang Hua's petty officials can guess the head of the evil seed, and this matter will ...... one day sooner or later."

Syllable!

Before he finished speaking, Duan Yuanyang was slapped and flew out, rolling more than a dozen times before stopping.

"A mouthful of evil seeds, a mouthful of evil seeds."

Duan Rufeng appeared in the position where Duan Yuanyang knelt down before, with a violent expression: "Take 10,000 steps back, the innocent is your second brother's son, and your second brother is also my species!" ”

“…… Children know their mistakes! ”

Duan Yuanyang got up, didn't care about wiping the blood stains on the corners of his mouth, and kowtowed again and again.

It's just that the eyes at the bottom are so resentful that they are a little crazy.

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking."

Duan Rufeng smiled disdainfully, "You just want this matter to spread as widely as possible, and it is best for Your Majesty to issue an order to reprimand you, so that Wuxian will never have a chance to be the head of the family, right?" ”

"This ...... The child has no intention of doing so! ”

Duan Yuanyang raised his head, his face full of horror: "The child has no talent and no virtue, it is not enough to support the position of the prince of the country, I have never dared to hope for it, if my father doesn't believe it...... If you don't believe it, you don't need Skynet, as long as you use the same life lock, the child can find him! And this is not afraid of being known at all! ”

"The eponymous lock?"

The disdain on Duan Rufeng's face became even stronger, "Yes, if you use the same life lock, you can indeed find innocence, but what about after finding him?" What are you going to do? Suppress his power with the Death Lock, and then kill him on the spot, right? ”

"Child......

"Shut up!"

Duan Rufeng scolded, directly interrupting Duan Yuanyang's quibble, "I've heard too many lies from you in my life, and I've heard enough of it a long time ago." ”

Duan Yuanyang was excited, but he honestly closed his mouth and didn't dare to say anything more.

"I don't object to you being ambitious, even if you are despicable, shameless, obscene, and have no bottom line, I can accept it."

Duan Rufeng turned around and walked towards the main seat, saying as he walked, his tone was low, lonely, and helpless.

"If you can rely on conspiracy to kill your second brother, kill your nephew, or even kill me, not only will I not have the slightest sense of blame, but I will even show off to my ancestors and ancestors underground...... Because my son is stronger than theirs! ”

"But what about you?"

"You've lived most of your life, have you ever done anything?"

"If there is no small mistake in being an official, a big mistake will be made."

"Marrying a daughter-in-law will be played to death by you...... That stepping horse is your daughter-in-law, the daughter of the Ministry of Rites, not the Oiran of the Qinglou! ”

"Even if you give birth to a child, you can't give birth to a handle."

"That's right, it has been inherited by the elders since ancient times, and our Duan family is the same."

Duan Rufeng sat down on the main seat and looked at Duan Yuanyang with hatred, "But you can ask yourself, can I rest assured that such a big family business is in your hands?" ”

"The child knows his mistake, and the child disgraces his father......"

Duan Yuanyang lowered his head, and the resentment in his heart was so strong that it was beyond measure.

"Alright."

Duan Rufeng waved his hand weakly, "You are indeed the mud that can't support the wall, but now, the position of this Guogong can only be done by you." ”

"What?!"

Duan Yuanyang suddenly raised his head, his face in disbelief.

Obviously, everything has been said about this, and the maintenance of Duan Wuxian has also reached this level, he should no longer have any hope of sitting on the position of the head of the family, why did he suddenly reverse?

Don't...... The old man was hit by the death of his second brother and went crazy?

Thinking of this, Duan Yuanyang was overjoyed and immediately went to see Duan Rufeng's eyes.

This......

Duan Yuanyang was stunned for a moment, and then immediately lowered his head again.

He could see it very clearly, Duan Rufeng's eyes were tired and weak, but they were clearly still awake, and there was no sign of chaos.

It's not like you're crazy at all.

So if you're not crazy, why do you say something like that?

Duan Yuanyang couldn't understand.

At this moment, Duan Rufeng gave the answer.

"The lock of the same fate has been broken."

Duan Rufeng slowly closed his eyes.

"What?! Broken?! ”

Duan Yuanyang was shocked, and fell back uncontrollably, from kneeling on the ground to sitting on the ground.

The same life lock is not a very high-grade treasure, at best, it is at the level of a magic soldier, and it is mainly used to cultivate the outstanding descendants of the family.

But this kind of unique magic soldier is extremely rare, even in the capital where the nobles are everywhere and there are many officials like dogs, few can afford to use it.

It has only one function, which is to link the lifesources of the two together.

This life-origin link does not mean that if one person dies, the other person will definitely die.

Its real effect is on the martial arts - as long as either of the two makes progress in the martial arts, the other will get feedback.

Only when both of them are dead will the lock of the same life be broken.

So......

The second child and his evil seed are all dead?!

Duan Yuanyang came back to his senses and began to try his best to suppress the corners of his mouth and not let it rise.

"Even if the lock of the same life is not broken, I don't believe that it was Wuxian who killed your second brother."

Duan Rufeng continued to speak, "You may think that Wuxian is afraid of waiting too long to become the head of this family, so he will kill your second brother, but you don't know that Wuxian doesn't want to be a prince of Chengguo at all...... He prefers to hide in the shadows and enjoy the feeling that no one knows him all day. ”

"What's more, now the lock of the same fate is broken."

"It is very likely that the innocent death will be much earlier than your second brother."

It's possible......

Duan Yuanyang gradually calmed down from his excitement and nodded thoughtfully.

"Now, you are the only candidate for the position of national prince."

"But, if you want to be the prince of this country, you must do one thing."

"If I can't do this, I'd rather go into the palace to face the saint and ask Your Majesty to cut off the title, and never leave it to you!"

Duan Rufeng's eyes widened angrily, and the aura of iron and blood rose brilliantly, enveloping the entire main hall.

"Can you hear me clearly?!"
