vaguely guessed the other party's intentions, Lu Mingfei immediately fell into deep thought and sorted out the whole thing.

The matter of the attack was temporarily decided, and everyone dispersed one after another, Qu Xiaotian stayed in the Jin'an Palace to recuperate, and the second prince symbolically led people to check everywhere in the palace.

Empress Fengxuan was about to leave, but was stopped by Lu Mingfei, the two came to Lu Mingfei's room, Lu Mingfei asked with a little worry: "Mother, will you be there tomorrow for the Yishi competition?"

Empress Fengxuan smiled faintly and said, "Tomorrow is about the establishment of the crown prince, and I naturally want to go." ”

Lu Mingfei frowned, looking a little hesitant, and said after a while, "I'm worried that you will be in danger tomorrow." ”

Then he told Queen Fengxuan about his previous speculation.

When Empress Fengxuan heard this, she was more surprised than pleased, and looked at Lu Mingfei with satisfaction and said: "Don't worry, after all, this is the Great Jin Palace, not Nanxiang Mountain, and a few demons in Nanxiang Pavilion can still turn against the sky." ”

Lu Mingfei didn't want to say anything more, and Empress Fengxuan suddenly asked again, "Do you have any views on the position of the crown prince?"

Lu Mingfei didn't understand what Empress Fengxuan meant for a while, and said suspiciously: "Didn't my mother say before, the position of the crown prince has long been inseparable from the eldest prince, and now it seems that the attack is inseparable from the eldest prince, and it can confirm the collusion between him and Nanxiang Pavilion, no matter what, the position of the prince cannot be let fall on the body of the eldest prince, in this case, the position of the crown prince is naturally His Royal Highness the second prince, is it possible that it can be passed on to the third prince?"

"What about you? Now that you are also your mother's son, haven't you ever thought about the position of this prince?"

Empress Fengxuan's words were amazing, but they were very solemn, without the slightest hint of joking.

"Me?"

Lu Mingfei was frightened, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I can't, I didn't think about it, I ......"

He didn't understand that Empress Fengxuan was tempted or had other intentions, and categorically rejected such an outrageous proposal, and Empress Fengxuan said with some surprise: "You kid is also strange, do you know that the two princes have coveted the crown prince for a long time, and they don't hesitate to turn against their brothers, but I didn't expect you to look down on you, if you inherit the crown prince, I will be the master in the future to marry Miss Yu to you, this is a good thing that people in the world dream of." ”

Lu Mingfei smiled and said: "When the prince needs a person with both ability and political integrity, I am just a flat-headed person who grew up in Feng'an City, I have always been used to it, and I don't know anything about family and country affairs, even if I wear a dragon robe, it is nondescript, my mother still don't joke, the second prince is the orthodox prince, and you, the queen mother, can't turn your elbow outward." ”

"What is turning outward, and now the princes are not my own. ”

Empress Fengxuan glanced at Lu Mingfei, her expression was a little complicated, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Then he nodded and said: "That's it, that's it, since you don't want to do this, I won't force you anymore, after you're busy with the things at hand, you will leave this place as soon as possible." ”

Lu Mingfei always felt that Empress Fengxuan had a very heavy concern, and he wanted to ask but couldn't speak, so he simply withdrew his thoughts, and roughly discussed the arrangements for the next day, and Empress Fengxuan went back to the palace after a few simple words.

Perhaps because of the determination of the crown prince, the second day of the Yishi duel was arranged on the Golden Palace of the Imperial Palace, and the time was still in the evening, not as serious and grand as the usual court, but a banquet was set up in the Golden Palace, more like a grand dinner.

After a day of cultivation and the treatment of the imperial doctor Zhou's silver needle, Qu Xiaotian did not see any major problems on the surface, but was full of energy, looking like a dragon and a tiger.

Imperial Doctor Zhou Tianlu specially explained that before the competition, it was necessary to seal the blood veins of the wound with silver needles, so Lu Mingfei and Qu Xiaotian rushed to the Golden Palace early.

Lu Mingfei personally helped Qu Xiaotian put on the brocade robe sent by the eldest prince, and then handed the Soul Condensing Pill that had already been prepared to Qu Xiaotian's hands.

"I took it before this competition. ”

Lu Mingfei explained, but he had other plans in his heart, if the guess was not too different, this Soul Condensing Pill might not be useful, I wanted to explain the truth to Qu Xiaotian, but I was afraid that his personality would be upright and show flaws.

"With the Overlord Gun, even without this elixir, he may not lose to him. ”

Qu Xiaotian looked full of confidence, since he embarked on the path of cultivation, all opponents in his eyes were the same, and there seemed to be no difference between strength and weakness.

Imperial Doctor Zhou Tianlu was already waiting in front of the Golden Palace, and when he saw Lu Mingfei and the others, he hurriedly greeted him.

"Trouble Mr. Zhou, when will it start?"

Lu Mingfei greeted politely, Zhou Tianlu returned the salute with a smile, and then said: "Don't worry, you two, I have already arranged it, the silver needle sealing acupoint only needs a stick of incense time, and the old man will help Master Qu complete the treatment before the competition, so as to ensure that his strength will not be affected too much." ”

Lu Mingfei thanked the other party, and then looked a little careless, and after waiting for a while, he saw the second prince striding over with two guards.

No one dared to slack off in the slightest for such a grand event, and when the time came, the hall was already full, and no official of any size was late.

Qu Xiaotian followed the second prince to the seat that had been arranged, and Lu Mingfei came to the third prince's side, and the two muttered something, showing a close relationship.

With the arrival of the emperor and empress, the golden palace suddenly became much quieter, and the dinner party began.

Yu Yingxue and Song Yiyi came with Empress Fengxuan, and the seat was arranged on the left side of Empress Fengxuan, which suddenly became a beautiful scenery in this golden palace.

This time, it was the emperor who spoke first, and opened a few simple words

The scene does not have much practical significance, and it is still that expressionless appearance from beginning to end.

In the Great Jin Dynasty, Yishi belongs to a very special official position, there is no specific official function but it is above other officials, after experiencing this competition and duel, no matter whether it wins or loses, it will be officially sealed, and since then it has enjoyed a very high status treatment.

The first thing at the dinner was the competition between Qu Xiaotian and Ye Wuwu, before the emperor finished speaking, Qu Xiaotian was already eager to try, and he couldn't help it.

"Master Qu, please come with the old man. ”

Zhou Tianlu counted the time and came to Qu Xiaotian's side and shouted, Lu Mingfei signaled slightly, Qu Xiaotian also nodded, and followed Zhou Tianlu towards the back of the Golden Palace with the overlord gun.

Not long after, a wide arena had been arranged in the middle of the Golden Palace, and the eldest prince was also almost ready, this would make Qu Xiaotian not in the Golden Palace, and more eyes fell on Ye Wuwu.

Ye Wuwu wore the same delicate robe as Qu Xiaotian, and slowly walked to the ring, in comparison, his figure was much thinner than Qu Xiaotian.

The eldest prince stood up suddenly, and the two did not speak, but exchanged glances.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Wuwu untied the long sword he was wearing at his waist in his hand, and threw it casually, and the long sword drew an arc and accurately fell into the hands of the eldest prince.

"Yesterday, I heard that Brother Qu under the second brother was secretly attacked by gangsters, and he was also injured, and the king was also deeply saddened, but it is a pity that the period of the competition has already been set and it is inconvenient to change. ”

Looking at the eldest prince's coy appearance, Lu Mingfei couldn't help but feel disgusted, and he didn't bother to say anything more, just sneered and silently enjoyed the eldest prince's final performance.

After a while, Qu Xiaotian also slowly walked from behind the Golden Palace under the guidance of Zhou Tianlu, and when he entered the ring, he did not forget to cast a confident look at Lu Mingfei and the second prince, and the second prince and Lu Mingfei also smiled to show encouragement.

The surroundings gradually remembered bursts of cheers, Qu Xiaotian leaned the overlord gun in front of him, mighty, and stood with his hands in his hands, calm and calm.

Just wait for an order, and this high-profile competition will begin.

The Son of Heaven of the Great Jin slowly stood up, as if to announce the start of the competition, at this juncture, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the Golden Palace, and then a eunuch followed several guards and shouted with some urgency: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, there is an urgent military situation in Nanfeng City!"

All the officials present felt a little stunned, but they didn't expect that the military situation of Nanfeng City would come from this juncture, and looking at the eunuch's hasty appearance, it was obviously a matter of urgency.

After the emperor signaled, he listened to the eunuch continue: "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Qi Tianhou Yin suddenly led the army to defect, and now he has successively broken through several pass fortresses of our army, Bihu Villa has fallen, and Nanfeng City is in danger!"
