Hall of Rongyuan.
Lian Yanqing, Lian Yanfu, and the three marquis waited outside the hall for an audience. Only when Feng Degui sent out the order for them to enter the hall did they withdraw their gazes, seemingly lost in thought.
As he entered the hall, he saw that the Sixth Prince, Feng Yu, and the Eighth Prince, Feng Ye, were already there.
Lian Yanfu and Lian Meng both went forward and knelt down. "Long live the Emperor."
Zhou Cheng Di revealed the happiest expression he had ever shown in his life as he looked at his hand sign and said, "Alright!" Good! On the day you came to ask me to make an order for you to go to the mountain customs, you told me that you wanted to build a new career before coming back. You didn't go back on your word, you really came back to me with your chest puffed up!
Yanfu, your nephew is like you, a warrior who has rendered great service to the imperial court. I am very gratified.
"Thank you, your majesty!" Both uncle and nephew stood up.
When Lian Meng raised his head, Zhou Cheng Di looked at his face and his gaze suddenly became serious. He leaned closer and said, "Is your face really as scarred as they say?"
"Father, speaking of this scar, this is the incantation's medal." Feng Ye stood forward and took the initiative to give a vivid description of how the Lian Fu had bravely infiltrated the enemy's camp, beheaded the enemy's leader, and set the enemy's grain on fire. He gave a generous compliment to Lian Fu.
When Zhou Cheng Di heard this, he nodded his head and waved towards Lian Fu. "Lian Fu, come over here. Come to my side."
Lian Fu was stunned and couldn't help but look at Lian Yanfu.
The smile on Feng Ye's face stiffened slightly. His gaze moved to Emperor Zhou's and Lian Fu's bodies.
"Yi'er, the emperor is calling for you. Go over there." Lian Yan Fu said as he nodded towards Lian Meng.
Naturally, even Yan Fu was unable to understand the feelings that were running through his mind. Finally, he took a few steps forward and arrived in front of Zhou Cheng Di.
"Your Majesty …"
Zhou Chengdi looked at the man before him carefully, then he secretly clenched his fists. In his heart, a voice was telling him that this was his father, his biological father.
Zhou Chengdi said, "I remember when you left, you were still an ignorant youth. Kneeling before the Hall of Rongyuan, he asked me to bestow an imperial edict on you to send you on a long journey.
Lian Xiang, you've given birth to a good son! "
Lian Yan Qing hurriedly kneeled on the ground and said, "This humble subject is terrified."
Zhou Cheng Di waved his hand and shouted, "Men, spread the word of the Emperor!"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Feng Degui stood in front of the palace with an imperial edict in his hand, and said loudly:
"In the early years of the Zhou Dynasty, the border was in turmoil. The right assistant minister of the military ministry, Lian Yanfu, was stationed at the mountain customs for five years. He did not disappoint us in the end.
Even the direct descendant of the Lian Family, a talented youth, has bravely charged into the enemy camp. His achievements are outstanding, and he was bestowed the status of a Grade Three Spirit Demon General, from First-grade to Duke Ming An. "
Once the imperial edict was issued, not only were the princes Feng Ye and Feng Yu stunned, even Yan Qing and Yan Fu were stunned.
Subsequently, even Yan Qing couldn't help but laugh. His Lian Clan actually had a duke, and that was even higher than the Xiao Clan's Xiao He's position back then.
That Feng De Gui held the Winged Crown of the Good Wings in both hands, wore a brown python robe with five claws, carried a jade belt, and thick boots with black soles, walked in front of Lian Fu, and said while bowing:
"Duke Ming An, please accept the decree."
Lian Meng knelt down on one knee and raised both his hands to receive the imperial robes. He said, "Long live the Emperor."
"What did you say?" Even his technique was sealed as a duke? " Feng Qianyue, who had been waiting in the Moon King Manor the entire time, revealed a surprised expression when he heard this news.
"There's another piece of bad news, Your Highness …" Ying Kong revealed a worried expression.
"What?" Feng Qianyue asked in a tight voice.
"The Emperor bestowed upon the Eighth Prince, but the Eighth Prince took the initiative to submit to the Emperor. He sent troops to attack King Lu Shang of Anping, the Emperor …" It's time for the concert. The eighth prince will be leading the troops to war in a few days' time. " After Ying Kong finished speaking, he raised his eyes to look at Feng Qianyue.
"…" When this duke and the Ninth royal brother were fighting to the death, he put on a nonchalant look and withdrew his desire and ambition. That day, when the Duke of Xu was in the imperial court fighting with Ye Lang, this duke knew that Xiao Zhenhai had fallen, so he took the opportunity to kick him in order to completely wipe out this duke's power! Today, you have taken the initiative to submit when royal father is feeling happy. That would be the end for this king! "
"Your Highness, what should we do now?" Ying Kong asked.
Feng Qianyue walked in front of the window and raised his head to look at the horizon. A crow was resting on the roof opposite him, and he emitted a wave of desolate sounds — —
The sun was setting in the western mountains. Could it be that once Xiao Zhenhai fell, his anger would be completely gone?
"Ying Kong, how is royal father's investigation into the whereabouts of the Eleventh Princess?" Feng Qian asked after a long time.
"According to what this lowly official knows, we're still looking."
"Can this girl escape to the ground?" Why is it so hard to find? " Feng Qian pondered as a bright light flashed through his mind. "If I can't find her, then I can only force her to show herself."
"Forced her to take the initiative and show herself? I don't really understand. " Ying Kong was puzzled.
"Eleven. Although she is not Ben Wang's blood sister, Ben Wang still knows her. She has a pure personality, not as cunning as Thirteen. She's easy to trick. Let's think of a way to trick her and make her take the initiative to appear." Feng Qianyue's indifferent gaze revealed a trace of cruelty.
"But, how should I deceive him?"
"That depends on what she cares about the most." Feng Qianyue's hand slowly fell on the side of the window as he spoke in an unhurried tone that carried a trace of chilliness.
"The most important thing?"
"Think about it. She escaped from This King's hands, but she did not find Lian Rue Yue, the person who could best protect her. Why is that?" Feng Qianyue laughed coldly, "Because she's afraid that she'll implicate Ru Yue and cause trouble for Lian Ru Yue. This means that Lian Ru Yue is someone that weighs a lot in her heart."
"So, Your Highness means …" Ying Kong seemed to have understood something.
Feng Qianyue patted Ying Kong on the shoulder, and said, "Think about it carefully, and create some rumors that are even like the moon."
"Yes, this lowly official will go right now!" Ying Kong understood what Feng Qianyue meant.
Winter Palace.
The jade pot beside her fell to the ground. With a pale face, she asked, "What did you say, your majesty? Did Emperor Feng Lian Fu become Duke Ming An's son from the First-grade?"
The man nodded and said, "Empress, yes, the imperial edict has been issued. Young Master Lian Fen, oh, no, it should mean that Prince An, that Duke Ming, already wearing the imperial edict and wearing the crown uniform bestowed upon him by the Emperor, has returned to the Prime Minister's Estate."
