So much had happened in the palace last night.
Everyone felt a bit depressed during the banquet tonight. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen in such a joyous day?
The king's face darkened. Who was the mastermind behind this?
Who exactly was that Vice Commander serving? Could it be that another wave of power was growing?
This question not only troubled His Majesty, but also the Old Prince and Chu Xiaotian.
The scene from years ago, when the king's power was about to be overturned, uncontrollably appeared in the emperor's mind once more.
At that time, when the Son of Heaven was still young and he had just ascended to the throne, he had no power whatsoever.
In the end, the situation became even worse. The Prime Minister actually raised his army to rebel.
At that time, there was no one close to the emperor.
He still remembered how touched he was when the soldiers went on a rampage and a young eunuch stood in front of him.
At that time, the young eunuch had already transformed into the current steward of the king with a shake of his body.
At that time, the young Emperor was extremely afraid. Facing the fear of death, how many would not be afraid?
He remembered crying when the soldiers surrounded him, when he was twelve.
He remembered the wild eyes roaming over him, the mocking laughter echoing in his ears, and then he was desperate.
Just as the blade was about to hack at him, a mighty general rushed in from outside. His face was covered in blood, and the youth in white beside him was also covered in blood.
The soldiers were stunned by the scene, and it was at this moment that the Son of Heaven was saved.
The moment General Wu had appeared, he had dealt with the soldiers surrounding His Majesty.
Then, he shouted, "Ming Fan, bring His Majesty away first!"
The moment he turned around, he saw the mighty general getting shot by an arrow. At that time, the youth in white's eyes suddenly turned red, and in the blink of an eye, he had rushed in front of the general and asked, "How is it?"
"It's fine. Hurry up and take his Majesty away."
The general was almost furious. The youth seemed to have noticed something. When he looked out the window, his face darkened and he muttered, "Father, protect His Majesty. Let me do it."
The general looked at the youth with some worry, but seeing the confidence in the first year's eyes, he walked up to the king with his hands covering his chest. His mighty body shielded the king tightly.
At that moment His Majesty felt that he was no longer alone, no longer afraid.
He didn't know how that youth had managed to do it, but he could hear miserable cries coming from outside.
Finally, when everything returned to peace and quiet, the public square outside was littered with corpses.
That youth was also leaning on his sword as he stood there, appearing extremely exhausted. In the end, he actually fell down.
Seeing the horrifying side of the man, the king could not help but hold the mighty general tightly as he muttered to himself, "Third uncle, I'm afraid, I'm afraid."
The general patted him gently on the shoulder and said, "Everything will pass. Everything will pass."
"Come, Your Majesty asks this old official to toast you." A genial voice sounded from the wine table.
Under Old Wang's lead, the atmosphere clearly became a lot better. A faint smile appeared on everyone's faces.
It was already dawn. There was only light. The sun could not be seen. Chu Feng walked out of his room and looked to the sky. His gaze became firm.
Then he walked towards his grandfather's room.
"No, how can I do that? Stop talking, I won't agree." A loud shout came from a woman.
Chu Feng looked at his grandfather with a pleading gaze.
His grandfather shrugged helplessly. His meaning was clear, he would settle his own problem by himself.
After Chu Feng saw it, he turned his gaze to his grandmother.
The madame was furious when she heard her grandson say that he was going to wander around. She had already lost a son, so how could she lose her only grandson?
Thus, when Chu Feng suggested this idea, he rejected it immediately.
"Grandma, it's really okay, I promise." Chu Feng said in a swaggering manner.
The old lady didn't even look at Chu Feng. If she understood that, then don't even think about it. There was no discussion about it.
"Feng'er, what happened yesterday?" Chu Xiaotian recalled the final question that the three brothers discussed last night, and could not help but raise it.
Chu Feng pretended to be in a group and asked, "What do you mean, what happened? Grandfather, what are you doing! "
When Chu Xiaotian heard his grandson's words, his expression turned sour. He had never thought that his beloved grandson would still keep secrets from him. For a moment, his heart ached.
"Grandfather, you mean the soldiers from yesterday?" Chu Feng said with a puzzled tone.
When Chu Xiaotian heard Chu Feng's question, he was a bit happy. He didn't understand what Chu Feng meant just now and was still randomly thinking. He smiled and nodded his head to show that Chu Feng was that matter.
"I was angry when those people tried to arrest us yesterday, but I didn't do anything." Chu Feng stopped.
His grandfather doubtfully asked, "He didn't make a move?"
Chu Feng said a bit bashfully, "When the guard wanted to chop at me, Steward Wang stood in front of me."
Chu Feng said with a bit of disagreement.
When Chu Xiaotian heard this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He didn't think that there would be such a good servant. When he thought about how Steward Wang didn't bring up this matter, he felt guilty.
Chu Feng saw his grandfather's puzzled gaze and continued saying, "I thought that Steward Wang was quite nice, so I knocked down those soldiers and left them on the ground."
Chu Xiaotian heard Chu Feng's words and stood up. He looked at Chu Feng and asked, "Did you beat up all the soldiers?"
Chu Feng firmly nodded and said a bit embarrassedly, "If it wasn't for my lack of strength, I wouldn't have stood up with those people outside."
When Chu Xiaotian heard his grandson's discontented tone, his heart was filled with sweat. You're strong, and that courtyard is at least a hundred meters long. How could you instantly … Chu Xiaotian was speechless, he could only nod his head.
"Grandma, Grandpa agreed." After Chu Feng said those words, Chu Xiao finally woke up from his contemplation. He looked at Chu Feng with a bewildered expression, as he had agreed to something.
For a moment, he was lost in thought.
At this moment, the old lady who had been caught in her surprise regained her senses. She had been surprised by what her grandson had said about yesterday. She did not expect such an unremarkable grandson to be so capable.
Now that he heard his grandson's joyful voice, he looked at the old man with a puzzled expression. The old man had clearly asked, "Old man, what did you promise him?"
Chu Xiaotian rolled his eyes and shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he did not know either.
Chu Feng joyfully said to his grandmother, "Grandma, I'll go back and pack up. I'll set off tomorrow."
The old mistress asked doubtfully, "I will leave tomorrow. Where are we going?" We still need to stay in the capital for a period of time! "
Chu Feng excitedly said, "Just now, grandpa already promised to go out and search for the peak of the dao."
When the old mistress heard this, her initially joyous expression darkened. She was about to reject him.
Chu Feng already spoke first, "When I was young, father often told me that as a man, it would be hard for one to chase after the words of another. Grandfather, you won't go back on your word right?"
Chu Xiaotian heard Chu Feng's playful voice and felt a bit helpless. He never would have thought that this little guy would talk to him about being a man.
He didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. In the end, he nodded and said, "That's right. Since we've already said it, we can't go back on our word."
Hearing that his grandfather had agreed to it, Chu Feng ignored his grandmother and ran outside while skipping.
The madame was about to say, "I haven't agreed yet!"
Chu Feng had already walked out of the room. In the end, he had to vent his anger on Chu Xiaotian.
He drank a cup of water and muttered, "That's true. My grandson has such a great ability, I'm afraid he won't be any worse than his father in the future. How could a small city trap him?
When Chu Xiaotian heard those words, he had the urge to spit out blood. He never would have thought that even after so many hours of suffering, she still agreed to let Chu Feng go out for adventure.
Thinking about how he had been framed by his grandson and had been taught a lesson by his wife for such a long time, he felt a bit depressed.
Thinking about how he hadn't been to the training field for a long time, he couldn't help but want to go there to relax and relieve his nervousness.
That night, the soldiers in the barracks complained incessantly, "That mighty general is really strong and experienced. His training is not sloppy at all."
For a moment, many soldiers lamented: Life is really hard.
Chu Feng returned to his room and felt a bit dejected. He muttered, "I'm sorry, grandfather."
Chu Feng's heart ached when he saw the gloomy expression on the old man's face. He did not expect that he would accidentally hurt his beloved grandfather, and in the end, it was still him who quickly turned his head around, feigning confusion as he asked occasionally about the matters of the soldiers yesterday.
Thinking to that point, Chu Feng couldn't help but begin to blame himself. Exactly what had happened to him? Could it be that even his grandfather could not believe him?
At that time, Chu Feng was blaming himself for thinking about it.
Finally, he let out a sigh of relief and murmured, "It's good. I have to deal with it quickly or my grandfather would be hurt."
Chu Feng paced back and forth in the house. After he finished packing his clothes, he walked into the room where the girl was staying.
"Xiang, pack up. I'll send you home tomorrow."
After hearing the boy's words, Wu Chengxiang couldn't help but tremble. There was joy and sorrow in his voice.
Chu Feng was able to see that the woman was injured. Thus, he grabbed the girl's waist and whispered into her ear, "Rest assured, I will not abandon you."
After listening to the boy's words, Lu Chengxiang felt even more uneasy.
From her point of view, boys were doted on by thousands of people. How could they be compatible with ordinary girls like her?
Thinking of this, the girl's heart ached.
As Chu Feng spoke, he hugged her tightly.
The more Chu Feng acted this way, the more uneasy he became. In the end, the girl shed a single tear.
However, Chu Feng did not understand why the tear fell.
"It's okay, I'll definitely come find you." Chu Feng promised the girl again.
Perhaps it was because of Chu Feng's firm tone, that Ah Chengxiang started to believe it. In his heart, he couldn't help but silently anticipate the day they would meet again, hoping that they wouldn't come too late.
"Yes." Lu Chengxiang said in a low voice.
Chu Feng held the girl's hand and said, "Let's go and take a walk outside. We'll be leaving tomorrow."
Lu Chengxiang nodded and agreed with his suggestion.
The palace seemed to have quieted down, obviously not as busy as yesterday.
Today, without Steward Wang following them, the two of them walked down the path hand in hand.
No one knew what Chu Feng said, but they kept hearing the incessant chuckles of He Chengxiang that caused the quiet courtyard to shake.
At this moment, a well-dressed youth stood on a tall building in the distance. Looking at the two of them, his eyes showed a trace of fear. The boy holding the girl's hand was too terrifying.
He was originally drooling over the girl's beauty and had a crooked idea in his head. He planned all of yesterday's events. Fortunately, the guard commander had now become an idiot. Otherwise, he was afraid that he would … The more the well-dressed youth thought about it, the more afraid he became. In the end, he couldn't help but feel lucky.
If he was discovered, even if he was the son of the concubine doted upon by His Majesty, he wouldn't be able to escape his doom.
In the instant he saw Chu Feng backstage, he was stunned. He never would have thought that it was the old man's grandson.
If he were to be discovered, it would still be a question whether the emperor would speak up for him.
All sorts of thoughts rose up in the well-dressed youth's mind. Finally, he made a decision in his heart: I can't be so reckless in the future.
This youth's lecherous act had provoked a variety of self-examination from the well-dressed youth. He had unexpectedly laid the foundation for becoming a Monarch in the future. Everything was unpredictable!
Who would have thought that the once lecherous and obscene youth would have such accomplishments in the future?
