Volume III Chapter 42

Qin Lingfeng looked at the roof of the dormitory with blank eyes, and his thoughts had already drifted back to that sleepless night seventeen years ago.

As the saying goes, the eldest brother is like a father, and he has that feeling, as long as his brother is there, even if the sky falls, he is not afraid.

At that time, my brother was already the king of Longines, although 20 years ago, my brother invited the enemy general into the palace to fight to the death, and was hit hard, although he left a dark disease, but later he was still able to go to the court to manage political affairs, and he was also at ease to be a thousand years old, and he had no worries about food and clothing.

The elder brother advocates martial arts, and once swore that the woman would not marry, and his repeated persuasion and guidance were fruitless, so as the lord of a country, he did not marry and have children, and the elder brother once said that in the future, the throne of the king will not be passed on to himself, or to his son.

But who would have expected that seventeen years ago, that woman actually came to the palace with her belly, and her brother overrode public opinion, insisting on accepting that woman as the queen, and soon after, she gave birth to a child, but the problem is that this child is not my brother's.

The child's background is extremely secret, and it is estimated that not many people in this world know except for his two brothers and his brother's younger brother, that is, the old man in the black robe.

The position of the monarch can only be the bloodline of the Qin family, and it must not be the bloodline of outsiders, which is a matter of principle for him. However, when he thought of facing his brother directly, he was shaken again.

On that day, the Nangong family in the capital sent Nangong Yu to the Chitose Mansion, secretly showing the support of the empire and instigating themselves to launch a coup d'Γ©tat. At night, at the instigation of Nangong Yu, he finally made a decision that he regretted for the rest of his life and usurped the throne.

In this matter, his brother's younger brother also stood on the opposite side of him, joined forces with himself, and finally succeeded in usurping the throne, but at the cost, his brother was accidentally buried in the fire, his heart was broken by the assassin, and the only three-year-old son was also assassinated, unfortunately, the murderer was pursued for more than ten years but is still at large.

Fortunately, the palace concubine of Xinna gave birth to a son in the second year, which is now His Royal Highness the Prince, so that he has a heart, for more than ten years, he has been extremely worried, and finally held on until now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very sensible and competitive, and he has not disappointed himself.

Originally, I wanted to wait for him to turn eighteen years old to pass on the throne, alas, it seems that I can't wait, God is going to collect people.

Qin Lingfeng felt a cramp in his heart, straightened his legs, opened his mouth, didn't make any sound, slowly closed his eyes, and exhaled the last breath of his life.

A dignified generation of lords, life is over.

The black-robed old man took His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and walked towards the deep mountains and old forests behind the palace.

The two were silent all the way, and finally came to a deserted mine, a figure flickered in the surrounding forest, and the black-robed old man waved his hand, and the figure disappeared.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince only knew that there was a team of elites hidden in the back mountain, which was arranged and directly managed by his father, where it was, how many people there were, I didn't know anything, is it here?

There is a large mine cave at the end of the mine, and there is a fence at the entrance of the hole, and there is a sign next to it, which reads, "Idlers stop, bear the consequences" in eight large red characters.

Not long after entering the cave and walking inside, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince found that there was no way ahead, and there was only a vertical deep hole under his feet.

The cave is extremely deep, and it took a long time for the blue to touch the ground, and there are many glowing soul cores embedded in the walls of the cave on both sides, and the light will not be dim.

After getting off the hanging blue and walking forward for dozens of meters, the front suddenly opened up, and an empty space appeared, and the cave wall and the ground were made of square stones piled up and paved, giving people a cold feeling.

There was a thin woman sitting on the ground, her face was very pale, her hair was unkempt, her clothes were neat, but she kept muttering in her mouth, which made it difficult for people to hear clearly.

When the thin woman heard someone coming, she immediately stood up, rushed to the two of them, and kept shouting loudly: "Give me back my child!

The thin woman only rushed a few steps and could not go any further, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince realized that the woman was wearing a cold iron chain on each shoulder and foot, and the roots of each chain had been submerged in the stone wall.

The thin woman was actually locked firmly at the bottom of the cave by iron chains! I don't know how much of a heinous disaster she committed to get such treatment, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was speechless for a moment.

The black-robed old man stared at the thin woman for a long time before he slowly spoke, "Senior sister, how are you doing lately?" Listening to that tone, there was a feeling of concern.

As if she hadn't heard, the thin woman still said to herself, "Give back my child, give me back my child... The voice became quieter and quieter, and he slowly sat back on the ground, ignoring the two of them again.

The black-robed old man didn't care either, and continued.

"Although Master did not recognize me and my brother as her true disciples, and only became a registered disciple, we still regarded her as our own master. ”

"The gap between us is getting bigger and bigger, you are extremely talented, your heart is higher than the sky, so you naturally don't look down on the two of us... ”

The old man in the black robe said a lot, at first, the more he talked, the more excited he became, and later, the more he talked, the more desolate he became.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has heard some of the truth.

The old man in the black robe and his senior brother both had a crush on this thin woman, but this woman married her senior brother with a big belly and gave birth to someone else's child for her senior brother, what a mess, the more His Royal Highness the Crown Prince listened, the more confused he became.

Later, the old man in the black robe was angry, and took refuge in his father's door, and dealt with the senior brother and the woman with his father, and fought in a room, unfortunately the fire candle fell to the ground, and the fire soon spread, and finally both sides were defeated, and the old man in the black robe only had time to rescue the woman, and the house collapsed, but the senior brother died in the fire. . . Wait, Father, how did Father get involved?

"Who is your senior brother?" and who is she?" the black-robed old man muttered to himself, chattering for a long time, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finally waited for a rare pause and asked.

"My senior brother, he is your uncle, the last monarch. She, hehehe, she is the famous savior of the Longines country, the national teacher Mo Chuya. The words of the black-robed old man were like a thunderbolt from the sky, which shocked His Royal Highness the Prince's scalp and stood stunned on the spot, unable to speak for a long time.

There are too many legends about the deeds of the national teacher, and it has become the pride of the people of Longines and the idol worshiped by His Royal Highness the Prince, but I never thought that the national teacher was a woman, and I had never heard of others.

At this time, the thin woman in front of her couldn't match the tall image of the idol in her mind, and her faith collapsed like a cracked eggshell in an instant.

In the impression he was instilled in since he was a child, the uncle had no heirs, the old disease recurred and died, his father inherited the throne as a matter of course, and after the idol national teacher and the first master of the empire fought at the peak, he finally relapsed and died, but, how could this be?

"Isn't the national teacher very powerful? ”

"No matter how powerful a woman is, she is also the weakest when she has a difficult birth, aren't we despicable?" Senior brother has an old disease, and his skills have been greatly reduced, as for the junior sister, if in normal times, ten of them are not the opponents of the junior sister, but in that battle, the junior sister faced dystocia, and the skill was no longer one in ten, but in the end, the senior brother and the junior sister joined forces, and they still lost both with themselves.

As for the past history, he did not personally participate, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could not comment.

Later, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also basically figured it out, it is said that two fierce men came, one rescued the child of the national teacher Mo Chuya and the two maidservants who served on the side on weekdays, went straight to the single-plank cliff, and fell into a desperate situation, and the other killed into the chaotic army, and went straight to his father, after paying the price of being shot blind in one eye, he broke his father's heart, thinking that his father would definitely die, and then turned back to kill the Chitose Palace, and fled to the sea after the extermination was full, although he has been wanted for many years, but he has not been arrested so far.

A day later, the army of the king of Zhennan pressed the border, and the history is strikingly similar, after the city gate was broken, the last army killed the front gate of the palace, all the way to the single cliff, and saved everyone.

Under the coordination of Nangong Yu of the Nangong family, everyone finally reached a compromise, and for more than ten years, the two sides were basically peaceful.

For the common people, the usurpation is not unacceptable, it is a matter of other people's families, how to live their own lives or how to live, therefore, what happened that night was quickly submerged in history.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince understood, no wonder his father kept telling him not to mess with the people in Longines Restaurant, the reason was this, in the past, the two sides only maintained peace and quiet on the surface, but in fact, the hatred is difficult to resolve, and he only learned the truth today.

At this time, another old woman came down from the hanging blue, carrying a bamboo basket, and there was food in the bamboo basket, which was quite rich, and the old woman opened her mouth to say "ahhh

The national teacher who was imprisoned here was taken care of by his mute mother-in-law for three meals a day, and he did not starve to death. It's just that the national teacher looks crazy, as if he is crazy.

It is difficult for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to describe his feelings at this moment.

Grief, pity, anger, joy?

It seems to have a little bit.

Some things in the world are like this, it is difficult to say which is right and which is wrong, standing in their own positions, there seems to be nothing wrong with it, and in the end you can only rely on yourself to ask yourself.

Back in the palace, a bigger thunderbolt struck His Royal Highness the Prince, making His Royal Highness the Crown Prince almost collapse in a mess.

My father is dead!
