Situ Zhen was dressed in hardcover, tall and tall, with a solemn appearance, his hands were clasped around his chest, his eyes were like torches, staring at the direction of Changle Palace, and he said meaningfully: "The Eternal Palace is here, I don't know who my father will take to go." Brothers, what do you say?"

Situ Tian smiled lightly: "Naturally, Brother Wang is the most suitable, and we can't compare." I wish Brother Wang a smooth journey, and he will be able to get the favor of the immortals as soon as possible, and he will forever control my Beiling Empire. ”

Situ Yun said lightly: "I think what the second brother said is very true, as the crown prince, Brother Wang is naturally the best candidate." ”

Situ Bing smiled kindly: "I think all of you brothers have a chance, after all, our father's mind is meticulous, and we don't know it." ”

In the distance, I saw a figure coming, and that person was a little eunuch, and he was also the person they had specially sent to inquire about the news.

When he came closer, the little eunuch bowed and saluted, wiped the beads of sweat that came out of his forehead, and said with some trembling: "Prince Qiyu, princes, the monarch has no choice of anyone, let the princes go back!"

"What?" Prince Situ Zhen's face tightened, a little displeased, and the same, a little incredulous: "How could my father not choose to follow alone, isn't it, my father is going to go to the Eternal Palace alone to meet the immortals?"

Situ Tian didn't care: "Brother Wang doesn't have to worry, my father will definitely choose Brother Wang, why rush for a while!"

Situ Yun was a little in a trance: "Doesn't my father really bring a royal brother, is it true that the position of my father in his heart ......?"

Speaking of this, he didn't continue to speak, I believe that several people can understand what he means, if he says it too clearly, it will hurt the harmony.

Situ Bing had no objection, after all, this was what his father meant, who dared to be disobedient, and comforted: "Brothers don't worry, my father will definitely have a choice." ”

"Hmph!" Prince Situ Zhen snorted coldly, then raised his steps and walked outside: "Father doesn't take me there, can't I go by myself!"

Situ Yun followed closely behind and agreed: "That's true, my father can go to the Eternal Palace, and so can I." ”

Situ Tian's eyes narrowed slightly, watching a few of them leave, and he was not far behind: "You have to meet the immortals, my father can go, and I can do the same, but the speed is a little slower." ”

Situ Bing continued to stay where he was, looking at the direction of Changle Hall motionless: "Father, what the hell are you doing, is this a test, or do you not care about us at all?"

Seeing that Situ Bing was staying where he was, the little eunuch couldn't help but ask, "Fourth prince, the other princes have left, do you want to stay here?"

Situ Bing was stunned for a moment, and then gave an order: "Come on, drag him down and slaughter him, this king's affairs are also something that a small eunuch can intervene in!"

The little eunuch immediately knelt on the ground in fright and trembled, and kept begging for mercy: "The prince spares his life, the slave deserves death, please spare the slave's life, the slave will never dare to ...... again"

"Hehe, since you yourself know that sin deserves death, then go to death, and come to beg for mercy, is this king such a foolish person!" Situ Bing smiled, waved his hand, and shouted: "If you drag it down with a thousand cuts, who dares to intercede for him will be punished for the same crime." ”

In this way, in the voice of the little eunuch begging for mercy, he was dragged down by the Praetorian Guard, and the voice became smaller and quieter, and in the end, it was no longer audible.

It was only at this time that a smile appeared on Situ Bing's face, and his cunning color flashed away, and he said meaningfully: "Father is worthy of being his father, or the original father, let this little eunuch come back, the same, borrow a knife to kill, my father is really not old, and his demeanor is still the same!"

At this time, another eunuch came over, it was Li Zhongxian, the righteous son of Li Changqing.

came to Situ Bing's face, first saluted respectfully, and then conveyed Situ Lanfeng's will: "See the four princes, the king has a decree, please invite the four princes to enter the Changle Hall to meet you." ”

After standing up straight, Li Zhongxian made a gesture of please: "Fourth prince, please, the king is still waiting for you in the Changle Palace!"

"I'm tired, let's go. Situ Bing treated it indifferently, strode towards the main hall of Changle Palace, and during the period, he said softly: "Sure enough, it is a test, but fortunately, this king is witty and did not leave." ”

Thinking of the departure of the three royal brothers, he could be sure that his father, Situ Lanfeng, must have secretly arranged for someone to watch, or personally watched this scene happen.

He stayed here, but he wanted to meet his father, not to go to the Eternal Palace to meet the immortals, but about the fiefdom, but unexpectedly, he actually beat the right way, intentionally or unintentionally, passed the test, and got the opportunity to meet.

"Since my father is like this, I also have to seize the opportunity, the eternal palace of the immortals can be described as a miracle, and this king must have a glimpse of the whole picture. Situ Bing said in his heart, the matter of the fief has been forgotten indefinitely, compared to the matter of the fief, the eternal palace is the turning point to change the fate.

As he walked, he was a little excited in his heart, but also a little worried and in a trance: "I don't know, can this king be able to get the favor of the immortals, and from then on, he will be able to rise to the top?"

Walking and walking, I came to the main hall of Changle Palace, Situ Lanfeng is standing in front of the hall, like a Mount Tai, not angry and self-imposing, his eyes are like torches, and the direction he points to is the direction of the Eternal Palace.

"The sons and daughters pay homage to their fathers. Situ Bing bowed and saluted.

"Hehe, you surprised Lonely, the person who stayed was actually you, and your three royal brothers left like this?" Situ Lanfeng smiled, as if he was happy, with a lot of surprise.

"The son did not know that this was his father's test, and thanks to his father's test, otherwise, the son would not have had the opportunity to meet his father. Situ Bing didn't dare to have the slightest presumptuousness in front of Situ Lanfeng, and replied respectfully.

"Bing'er, you don't have to worry, Lone won't blame you. Situ Lanfeng's face suddenly became gentle, amiable, as if he had returned to the role of a father.

"Thank you, father. Situ Bing saluted again and gradually straightened up.

"Bing'er, what do you see?" Situ Lanfeng raised his hand, stretched out a finger, pointed in the direction of the Eternal Palace, and asked.

Situ Bing was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and then replied tremblingly: "Father Qi, the son has seen the endless map of mountains and rivers. ”

Situ Lan's face did not change, his finger still pointed in the direction of the Eternal Palace, and asked repeatedly, "Bing'er, what did you see?"

"Enlightening the father, the son saw the sky that could soar for nine days. Situ Bing was stunned for a moment, strange that Situ Lanfeng would repeat this question, and couldn't help but be puzzled. Although curious, I still had to answer. It was already obvious in his heart, and he shook his head gently: "Father, what is this going to do, the same question, is there any difference? Is this another test?"

As soon as he thought of the test, he could get a chance to be appreciated by his father if he passed, he couldn't help but get excited, this was an opportunity close at hand, and it was very likely that the continuous test was the one who decided whether he could follow Situ Lanfeng to the Eternal Palace.

"This is my father's king? This is a generation of kings? Is this my father's means?" Situ Bing was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but admire Situ Lanfeng: "I was not in my father's sight originally, but this time I have been appreciated, and it is very likely that I will receive great resources to cultivate and become a candidate for the new crown prince."

This time my father taught me the means, and it was a test of my judgment, and my ability to think, and a supplement to my insight, can I let my father look at me sideways?"

This time, Situ Lanfeng smiled and continued, "Bing'er, what did you see?"

Situ Bing was not irritable, but excited, energetic, and gradually adapted to the same direction, the same place, and the same problem.

The Eternal Palace was originally the former site of Wushuang City, which was occupied by Shangxian Chu Heng, Situ Bing immediately changed the direction of his answer and said, "Father Qi, Erchen has seen the mountains and rivers of the Beiling Empire. ”

Hearing Situ Bing's answer, Situ Lanfeng smiled again, his finger continued to point in that direction, and the question remained the same: "Bing'er, what did you see?"

"Father, Erchen saw the immortal palace of Shangxian, which is located within my Beiling Empire. Situ Bing no longer flinched, and gradually, he had a plan and answered truthfully.

Situ Lanfeng's smile became even thicker, and the same question came out of his mouth: "Bing'er, what do you see?"

Situ Bing was stunned, he couldn't figure out how many times Situ Lanfeng had to ask, this test was inevitably too difficult!

Is this to rack your brains?

"Since I am not satisfied with my father's answer, then continue to change my perspective, I don't believe it, my father will never be satisfied with my answer!" Situ Bing was bound by this same question, and had to think hard, and he was about to rack his brains, which was really a little miserable, and he felt a little irritable, but he didn't show it directly, and continued to endure it.

"Father, my son, I have seen thousands of people in my Beiling Empire. Situ Bing beeped the dog in his heart, thinking of how the mountains and rivers and sheji changed, they were all inhabited by thousands of people, and he couldn't help but answer from this perspective.

"Good. Situ Lanfeng finally said a word, and then, the same question came out of his mouth: "Bing'er, what do you see?"

"Huh?" Situ Bing finally heard Situ Lanfeng's tone be different, and couldn't help but feel a little excited: "Answer from a different angle, you can get a compliment, it seems that this question is not as simple as it seems on the surface." No matter what the father wants, in the end, it is not for the existence of the Beiling Empire. In this way, it is based on the entire Beiling Empire, which is the true essence. Looks like I'm still a long way off!"

The eternal palace of the immortals, the sky soaring for nine days, the endless mountains and rivers, and thousands of people, these have all been answered.

Situ Bing felt that he didn't seem to be so stupid, nor was he as stupid as he imagined, and he still had some thinking and judgment, but what he saw was the surface, not the real substance.

"Father Qi, Erchen has seen countless resources and wealth, which can make my Beiling Empire more powerful, and it is not impossible to surpass the Qinling Empire. After all, no one can survive without resources, even as the king of a country, he is not exempt from vulgarity.

"Hehe, good. Situ Lanfeng smiled, like a spring breeze, stared at Situ Bing, and said meaningfully: "Bing'er, what else did you see?"

Hearing Situ Bing's answer, Situ Lanfeng became more and more happy, it seems that this son is not as useless as rumored, and there is still some merit. muttered in his heart, quite expectant: "I hope, you don't let Gu down!"

"Huh?" received another compliment, which was both expected and unexpected, and Situ Bing thought that his father would not be satisfied.

came so quickly, he was a little overwhelmed, no, he couldn't bear it, and he wanted to ask: Father, what do you want?

For more than ten years, he hadn't received a single compliment, not to mention that this time it was two compliments, which made him feel incredible, as if he was living in a dream.

"Father, son, and son also saw that the kings of the Six Kingdoms were not far behind, and wanted to annex my Beiling Empire and replace it as a new region. Situ Bing replied patiently.

"Good. Situ Lanfeng praised again, the problem was still the same, as if it was an endless waterfall, and said from his mouth again: "You can see this, it can be regarded as some insight, but this is not enough. Bing'er, Lone asks you again, what else do you see?"

Hearing such a tone, Situ Bingdu was almost shocked and confused, unprecedentedly dignified, this time he asked, it seems that this is the last time.

Father's tone changed, and probably, this was the last time he asked himself. The test is about to end, Situ Bing frowned, his heart was heavy, and he kept telling himself: This time you must consider carefully, you must treat it carefully, you must answer carefully, it is very likely that after passing this test, you will become the new prince, and the position of the prince of the Beiling Empire is only one step away from you.

My father has been in a high position for so long, what has he seen, and how much can I see when I am so young?

How can I satisfy my father?

Thousands of thoughts, flying like rain, stunned in a daze, the direction of the Eternal Palace is so far away, and so close at hand, his heart trembled!

"Qiyu's father, the sons and daughters have seen it, the immortals exist, and the Beiling Empire has been for thousands of years. Situ Bing gasped, his expression was firm, and he said in a sonorous tone.

"Great goodness!" Situ Lan was like a spring breeze, raised his footsteps, and walked into the distance.

"What's the matter, isn't my father still satisfied?" Situ Bing watched Situ Lanfeng leave in the distance, his expression changed drastically, and he chuckled in his heart, as if he had lost something precious, and he was empty.

When Situ Lanfeng was about to leave the range of Changle Palace, an irreversible majestic voice came: "Bing'er, yes, you are the next monarch of the Beiling Empire." On the trip to the Eternal Palace, you will accompany you alone!"

Before Situ Bing could be happy, Situ Lanfeng's prestige sounded again: "By the way, when the time comes, you will call your seventh brother." ”

"Am I the next Beiling Jun?" Situ Bing couldn't believe it, the position of the king of a country was as simple as that?
