Originally, the people from Moqiu s who were caught and brought back admitted their misfortune. Although they were imprisoned, after eating and drinking everyday, everyone was still together. As a result, this group of people from Moqiu was not overly dispirited. Even the young spies who had been infiltrated were treated as their friends and children.

It was not that the people from Moqiu was stupid, it was that the youngsters who had been raised in an environment like Luo Family were too shrewd. Even though they were only in their teens, they possessed shrewdness and deceptive methods that far surpassed ordinary people. Under these circumstances, their childish faces served as the greatest cover for their deceit.

In the eyes of this group of people from Moqiu, these children were merely children caught by Fire Phoenix Army to take care of themselves. The children had come here in the first place, every day to buy vegetables, cook, chop wood, and fetch water, all doing the work of adults. After an entire half a month, they finally began "intentionally" contacting the people from Moqiu.

Through this slowly building up trust, a majority of people from Moqiu s who only had one brain had already been tricked to the point that they didn't know where it was south, south, or north. Holding the hands of these children, they chatted about what happened to Mo Qiu, what happened to Beast God, and some were even afraid that these children couldn't understand their own dialect, and would teach them a few words from time to time. After a while, this group of children had become extremely familiar with Mo Qiu, and had completely reached the standard needed to execute the Prince's plan.

After two to three years of hard work to achieve such an achievement, the Prince was naturally unable to contain his joy, and opened a banquet to invite everyone to drink. However, he had overlooked one point. No matter how mature a child was, they were still children. His mental maturity did not mean that his body had matured as well. In the eyes of the Prince and the Chen family hall master, their alcohol consumption was already a little too much for this group of children. That night, when they went back to pack their things, the children who were too drunk to care less. people from Moqiu who came over to greet them kindly overheard their conversation and found out their true identities.

They had finally made a group of people from the Fire Phoenix Nation as friends. Originally, he thought that these children were innocent, he never thought that the ones who cheated him the most and swindled him the most would be these little brats. Not only that, this group of brats also wanted to penetrate deep into Mo Qiu and overturn their Moqiu. If this matter did not come to an end, they would be the biggest sinners of Mo Qiu!

The deceived people from Moqiu vented their anger with their wooden sticks and machetes. Over a dozen of Luo Family's young men, who had lived with them for two to three years, were chopped into pieces and smashed into meat paste. Not only that, they had even set fire to the house they lived in before the defenders rushed in and used the fire to risk their lives to rush out of the house that had imprisoned them for a long time.

When they rushed out, this group of people from Moqiu were completely dumbfounded. When had they ever seen such a big city in their lives?

Although the Moqiu City was the capital of Mo Qiu, the Lord Messenger of God was calm, and the monks had trained tirelessly without demand. The entire Moqiu City was a very peaceful and small city, and only the Tiger King Conference would be bustling with noise and excitement. With Moqiu City acting, the other Tiger King s did not dare to build their own capital too extravagantly. It did not matter if they lived in a palace full of splendor, but in terms of face, they could not be too far away from the Lord Messenger of God.

But the size and majesty of the city in front of them had already exceeded the imagination of people from Moqiu. Compared to the city, the Moqiu City was like a small broken village!

Actually, what surprised them the most had yet to happen, because it was already late at night when they had escaped, so they couldn't see very far. If it was day time, just the densely packed restaurant, restaurant, restaurant, song, and song, as well as the silk shop alone was enough to make them feel dizzy, let alone other things. This was because this was no other than the imperial city that had the reputation of the continent's number one city, Fire Phoenix Empire!

In order to more easily mobilize resources and inspect the progress, the Prince chose a side courtyard located in the outskirts of the imperial city as the place to imprison the people from Moqiu. However, he never expected that people from Moqiu would have ran away, and that was after igniting the fire. The people from Moqiu did not know the way, and in the middle of the night, they were running around like headless flies, but unfortunately, they were heading towards the center of the imperial city, where the imperial palace was!

Therefore, the citizens of the imperial city were out of luck. They had a good night's sleep, and suddenly, a group of evil people with knives and sticks came in, snatched away the food and clothing, and ran away. When the knowledgeable people in the imperial city recognized that these people spoke with the accent of Mo Qiu, half of the capital exploded.

"I heard that last night, a group of Moqiu Army snuck into the imperial city and headed straight in the direction of the imperial palace?"

"That group of people are really amazing. Just one person was enough to beat the head of the family of Old Zhang, who's next door to me, half to death! "You've already planned this, right?"

"Isn't that so? This group of people are especially powerful! He even burned the house! "I heard that they've already reached the entrance of the imperial palace …"

"..."

Various unreliable rumors began to spread among the citizens of the imperial city. Although very few people had seen this group of "Moqiu Soldier", the huge smoke pillar and the soldiers who were running around and setting up roadblocks in the northwest had indirectly proven all of this.

Three days. It took a total of three days before Prince and Hall Master Chen led their troops to kill the last people from Moqiu who was scurrying around the imperial city. However, this matter had already shook the imperial city, and caused Her Majesty to become even more furious. This was not a simple matter of the people of Moqiu City, but rather, the Prince had started doing something right under the feet of the Son of Heaven in the capital that even the Son of Heaven did not know. Not only did the Luo Family not stop or inform the Emperor, it even had a branch that helped him wholeheartedly. This matter had already been raised to the level of 'murdering one's father for power'. If he didn't make some great sacrifices, then no one would be able to end the situation.

In the end, the Prince kept his title and head, but he was strictly ordered to keep his feet sealed, and to withdraw from all the civilian and military departments. He had thought about his crimes silently, and without the Her Majesty's written orders, he was not allowed to step out of the Crown Prince's Palace!

The most miserable one was Hall Master Chen. Now, not only did Her Majesty hate him, the rest of the Luo Family hated him as well. Because of this matter, the Her Majesty had to thoroughly investigate all the branches of the Luo Family and definitely could not allow the Luo Family to carry out any activities in private when she was unaware! When she spoke of this matter, Her Majesty said a very meaningful sentence, "We want to know, in the end, just how many things has Luo Family been done. I want to know if this world still belongs to me!

"

These words were extremely heavy, to the point of almost saying that Luo Family was planning to rebel. Luo Family were naturally anxious to prove their innocence. They cut off more than half of the various powers and relationships they had cultivated over the years, cleared out a few branches of the hall, and carried out a thorough inspection of the existing hall's entrance. This action greatly injured Luo Family but the most important thing was that he could preserve his life. Relationship could be rebuilt, information could be regathered, but Luo Family could not be destroyed! In the end, over seventy of the Great Master of the Chen family were beheaded in public. Even after dying, he didn't return to his original surname, Luo, or enter the ancestral hall, but was instead treated as a foreigner that was never mentioned again.

The only survivor of the main bloodline was his only six year old son, Chen Chu. Prince felt guilty. He had promised this child a harsh condition that he would never enter the Luo Family, which was the reason why he used an ordinary peasant child to exchange for Chen Chu the night before the execution.

After going through so much suffering, even though his Luo Family had been greatly weakened, and he had completely fallen to the bottom of the three great families, he had still managed to preserve his family's bloodline. Although the Prince had protected Chen Chu, from the beginning, his entire being's essence, energy, and divine suffered a huge blow. From then on, he lived in seclusion, no longer caring about political matters. It could be said that after these two to three years of suffering, the only thing they had gained from it was Moqiu State.

Actually, Chen Chu knew that there was another beneficiary behind this incident, and that was Huo Yanrann.

Due to losing trust in anyone, Prince treated Chen Chu as his own son. Actually, at that time, he already had an only daughter, and that was Huo Yanrann. At that time, Huo Yanrann was only two years old. Even though she was destined to be the empress of the Fire Phoenix Empire, she was still a child after all, and didn't attract too much attention. And because of Chen Chu's existence, some people had teased him and said that he was the Prince Consort that had prepared a childhood friend for his daughter in advance.

Chen Chu had followed beside Prince for many years, and slowly understood some of the inner workings. In fact, the Prince did not really like her daughter, but the reason was because of her mother.

To the clan of the Fire Phoenix Empire, bearing children was a mission, a mission that had to be completed. The successive generations of Fire Phoenix Empire's princes were also completing this mission. However, everyone's attitude towards this matter was different, because everyone knew that the crown prince did not have the right to choose the Crown Prince's consort. Regardless of whether it was the Queen or the Crown Princess, they would pass away soon after giving birth. Some princes were cold to their princesses and treated them as tools to continue their bloodline. Some princesses had a deep relationship with them, so many years later, they would still cherish them.

However, after Huo Yanrann was born and the princess consort passed away, his disappointment, sadness, and sadness all transformed into a type of anger. She even felt that if it wasn't for Huo Yanrann's birth, the princess consort wouldn't have passed away.

Even though he was extremely stubborn, what was the point in having such an extremely sad Crown Prince? On top of that, the Li family hall master's plan had failed, so the mood of Prince was extremely low right now. He was forbidden to step foot deep into the palace every day, and not only were there no guests, he didn't even see Huo Yanrann. He only grabbed Chen Chu and used all of his strength to teach him how to read and write, to teach him martial arts.

In such an environment, Chen Chu, as the son of a sinful subject, obtained the best possible royal education, and smoothly entered the Imperial Military Academy at the age of sixteen, with almost excellent results. In the eyes of outsiders, after he graduated, the Prince would have already ascended the throne and become the emperor. At that time, Chen Chu might even be able to revive the Chen Family and become the Empire's new aristocrat.

However, Chen Chu knew that all of this was impossible. The reason the Prince taught him was entirely because of his guilt towards his own father and his family, as well as because he didn't like Huo Yanrann, but because of the misplaced love he had with her. And most importantly, the condition that the Prince agreed to back then was to no longer ascend the throne and become emperor, and instead pass down the position to Huo Yanrann!

This condition that others could not understand was actually the action taken by the Her Majesty in order to protect the three great families. He understood her son's personality, and also understood the importance of the three great families. If he ascended the throne of the emperor in the future, she might even make a move against Luo Family. Although the old emperor did not like Luo Family either, because Luo Family involved many things, he had done a thousand years of meritorious service for the empire. However, if this Prince Hong Wu calls him emperor, with his personality, it would be hard to say. On the surface, it was still a Prince. Actually, there was no longer a throne to sit on, and it directly made Huo Yanrann, who was only two years old at the time, the biggest beneficiary.

This condition was agreed to by him in order to protect Chen Chu at first, and he used his imperial throne to exchange it for a friend's bloodline. This kind of thing that was unfathomable in the eyes of the bystanders, was a little unexpected in the hands of the Prince, and just by thinking about it, he could deduce one or two things about his attitude towards Huo Yanrann.

It was also because he knew about this that Chen Chu kept a very low profile within the Imperial Military Academy. He never paid attention to the teasing of his classmates about "Prince Consort Horse" and "Aristocratic Families", and only studied and trained extremely hard every single day. As long as there was a mission that allowed him to participate in a battle, he would not hesitate to sign up for one. Although he had left a haughty and eccentric impression in the eyes of others, his heart had never wavered. He was working hard not for himself, but for his dead father and Prince.

In Chen Chu's heart, there was even a hidden thought that he could not tell anyone: One day, he will use his own strength to return the Prince to the throne!

Just as Chen Chu was walking step by step towards his goal, the Prince suddenly died. This accident changed Chen Chu's entire life and it also let him know some secrets about the Fire Phoenix Empire and the Mo Qiu Empire that no one knew for hundreds of thousands of years.

For example, Qiong Qi s.
