Chapter 38: The Endless Forest
"Haha, I was just joking, and everyone believed it!"
Ye Feng laughed, breaking the silence.
He really has no interest in the position of the crown prince, even if he gives him the position of emperor, he is equally indifferent.
What he said just now was just a temptation for him, if in the future, the crown prince Ye Yu was no longer the prince, what would be the reaction of these officials.
Everyone has their own way, the way is different, the goal is different, the way that Ye Feng is looking for is not here, not limited to one country, let alone the position of the prince.
"Hehehehe...... I'll just say, how could the fifth child want to be the prince, it turned out to be just a joke, it's ridiculous!"
The second one to laugh out loud was Emperor Ye Ying.
His eyes were slightly confused, faintly, observing the facial expressions of Ye Feng and Prince Ye Yu.
"That's right, the fifth prince is usually cynical and free, how can he be interested in the position of the crown prince!"
"A joke, it must be a joke, the old man almost took it seriously just now, haha!"
"I scared the baby to death, I thought it was real!"
......
Some officials, in order to get the Trauma God Anointment, began to temporarily defect and stood on Ye Feng's side.
"Hmph, the fifth prince doesn't have the guts!"
There were also those present who were not convinced, such as Prime Minister Wen Song, Commander Huang Sanwolf and others, who spoke coldly to Ye Feng.
"Alright, alright, everybody be quiet!"
In the end, Emperor Ye Ying waved his hand, stopped everyone's discussion, and announced: "Everyone must stay, they all know that I am ready to enter the Endless Forest, and now that the people have arrived, they can start!"
He couldn't wait, and he was bent on catching demon beasts as soon as possible, especially high-level demon beasts like Qianli Eagle.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Everyone bowed, looked for their formation, and set out to the west.
It's still the same as when they entered the Red Leaf Forest, no one wants to be on a team with Ye Feng, although they want to get the trauma ointment from Ye Feng, but they know in their hearts that being with Ye Feng is equivalent to being an enemy of the prince.
In order not to offend the prince, let go of the matter of the divine anointing of the wound for the time being.
"If one person gains the Tao, the chicken and dog ascend to heaven, and one person loses power, the chicken and dog are restless!"
Ye Feng is indifferent, he acts, he likes to rely on himself, not on others.
Just imagine, the crown prince is a big celebrity around the current emperor, the future successor, powerful and powerful, naturally everyone is willing to follow, and he, the prince of the bare pole, has no soldiers and no power, who is unlucky with whom.
From the other party's point of view, if he is one of those people, he will also choose to follow the prince.
Ye Feng originally planned to walk at the back of the crowd like last time, but what he didn't expect was that he was recruited to the front by the emperor and sent a good horse in parallel with the other three generals.
In this way, the original position of General Huwei was replaced by Ye Feng.
......
Endless Forest.
Located on the western edge of the Leaf Country, it is not regulated by any country, so this forest is borderland.
It is rumored that there are some powerful demon beasts resident in the forest, which feed on people, make enemies of people, and do not contact other places.
Often, pedestrians would rather take a long detour than enter the forest and lose their lives in vain.
But there are also special circumstances, for example, the emperor chose to march into the forest in order to hunt demon beasts.
"There's the Endless Forest ahead!"
A team of thousands of people, including Ye Feng, finally arrived at the exit of the forest after a long journey of a day and a night.
"Your Majesty has a decree, all the soldiers, you are tired of traveling and driving, you will be stationed here, stay overnight, and set off tomorrow to enter the forest!"
A white little father-in-law ran in front of everyone, proudly announced, followed, and slowly left with the emperor's carriage.
Soon, the crowd dispersed and began to set up makeshift tents one after another around the area.
Most of the officials arranged some soldiers and retinues outside the tent to prevent them from being attacked by people like last time.
"What a big forest!"
Ye Feng rode on horseback, looked up, and saw a vast green in front of him, boundless.
Even if you use your divine sense, you can only detect the tip of the iceberg in the forest.
"Let's find a place to rest!"
Ye Feng is also a human being, and if he is a human being, he needs to rest.
So, turn the horse's head, stay away from the crowd, find a relatively quiet place, and stay and station.
At this time, there is an endless forest in front of you, and you don't know anything else, and you can only know everything inside when you enter the forest tomorrow.
In a moment, one tent was built and one person settled in.
Ye Feng sat in the tent, spread the mat, and was about to lie down when he suddenly sat up again.
"Who?"
Spit out a word, and Ye Feng stared at the entrance with his eyes intently.
Divine consciousness caught three figures, coming this way.
"Five princes, the villain has something to meet!"
Three dark shadows stopped at the door, and a man's voice came out.
The voice, hot and cold, carried a hint of sincerity.
"Please come in!"
Ye Fengjian's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and for a while, he couldn't guess who was outside.
Listening to the voice, it doesn't look like it is malicious.
"Meet the Five Princes!"
The tent was lifted, and three men walked in.
The leader is a white-bearded old man, who looks like nothing but an ordinary official uniform, and it is expected that the official rank in Ye Zhiguo should not be high.
To the left and right are young men in their twenties, thin and dark-skinned, with black robes, as if walking in the crowd, the kind that can be forgotten at a glance.
But these two have a lot in common, their eyebrows, nose, mouth, etc. are very similar, as if they were carved out of a Mozi.
They are twins.
"...... you?"
The first time Ye Feng saw the old man in front of him, it seemed that he had seen it there, but when he thought about it, he couldn't remember it for a while.
"Fifth prince, you have forgotten that the old man once had a relationship with you in the Royal Weapons Shop!"
The white-bearded old man arched his hand and spoke kindly.
"You, you're ...... Guan Fei, Guan senior!"
Ye Feng was stunned for a moment, and immediately had an impression.
A few days ago, he and Zhao Xiaoyue went to the royal weapons store to buy bows and arrows, and the boss there was the old man in front of him.
At that time, Ye Feng and the prime minister's grandson Wenyang competed for the white bow, and there was a stalemate, and it was the shopkeeper Guan Fei in front of him who broke the siege and bought the white bow.
I haven't had time to thank people yet.
"Hehe, the seniors don't dare to be it, as long as the five princes still remember to be there!"
Guan Fei smiled, and then, his face became serious, and he said solemnly: "Disturbing in the second half of the night, there is actually an important matter, I want to ask the fifth prince for help!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he bent his legs and knelt on the ground.
"Ask the five princes to be the masters for us!"
The twin brothers, too, made a 'porphy' sound, and their legs were bent to the ground.
"Everyone, please get up, what are you doing!"
Ye Feng was stunned and hurriedly went to help.
These people, as soon as they enter the account, they have something to ask each other, what is it, and they need to communicate in the way of 'kneeling'.
Let him have some, and he can't ride his sister.
