Chapter 331: advance by retreat
Chapter 331 Retreat as Advance
The voice was obviously far away, but it seemed to be very close in an instant. The man in black frowned, and suddenly raised his head to look up the high slope. When he caught a glimpse of a piece of bright yellow clothes, his expression changed, and he understood everything in just a moment.
He stared at Feng Shuo, and finally said the first sentence: "It seems that you know more than I expected!"
On the other side, Jing and Di were walking in front of the tent with their hands behind their hands. Cui Lingling with a big belly walked over, saluted and said:
"My wife would like to invite your Majesty to go to a place."
If someone else said this, Jing and Di would definitely refuse with a smile. Or suspect what purpose the other party has. But this is Cui Lingling, the saint of the Red Lotus Sect, and she is pregnant again. Jing and Di are inevitably a little more tolerant.
He didn't ask much, just nodded with a smile, still holding hands behind his back, letting Cui Lingling lead the way.
Of course, it is impossible for the emperor to travel without someone to follow. On the dark side, a pair of elite imperial guards are secretly followed by several hidden guards.
Cui Lingling relied on tracking Gu to lead Jing and Di to turn around in the forest, and estimated the progress based on the length of tracking Gu's stagnation. This journey was really hard.
Just this little city is not enough to look at in front of the emperor. Jing and Di can guess what she is going to do at a glance, and don't expose her, just follow along with interest.
He thought it was some kind of trick to catch **** again, but when Cui Lingling finally stopped and looked down the high slope, he almost fainted from fright.
On the slope, a man in black robe wearing a ghost mask was raising his hand as if he was about to grab Feng Shuo's neck. The murderous intent around him could be felt from such a distance,
Jing and Di's pupils shrank, and they exclaimed in surprise: "Hurry up and take him down!"
The moment the voice fell, more than a dozen imperial guards drew their swords and rushed towards the man in black.
At this time, Qin Yan also rushed over, and he subconsciously looked at Cui Lingling who was standing beside Jing and Di.
Cui Lingling blinked at him, as if to say, "How is it? I'm sure I've got enough timing!"
Qin Yan nodded helplessly, looked at the men in black robes surrounded by the forbidden army, and breathed a sigh of relief.
In any case, their plan is half successful.
Qin Yan originally thought that the man in black would try his best to break out of the siege. After all, with the opponent's martial arts, he could still get away with serious injuries.
However, the black-robed man was easily taken down by the imperial army after only ten moves.
Cui Lingling looked at Qin Yan and Feng Shuo, blinked in disbelief,
Didn't you say that the other party is very powerful? That's it!
Jing and Di walked down the high **** slowly, looking down at the black-robed man who was kneeling on the ground:
"Who are you? Why do you want to kill a child like this?"
The man in black lowered his head silently, his back was a bit lonely.
Jing and Di squinted their eyes. They were far away just now. Now that they got closer, they felt that the back was inexplicably familiar. He had an ominous premonition in his heart, but he still said in a deep voice: "Take off the mask!"
The imperial army pressing down on the man in black was about to make a move, but he raised his head and said shyly:
"No need. Come alone."
When the guards present heard the voice, Qi Qi froze.
This voice...Prince!
Jing and Di were also shocked, looking at the prince who took off his mask.
Jing and Di Meng took a step back, pointing at him with trembling fingers: "You...why are you..."
The crown prince lowered his head and smiled bitterly: "Father wants to ask, why did my son kill a child like this! Because my son is unwilling!"
Jing and Di seemed to have guessed what he was going to say, his eyes were complicated for a moment, but he still asked: "You are a prince, why are you unwilling!"
The prince raised his head and smiled desolately: "Prince, heh! It will be gone soon!
I knew since I was a child that I am inferior to my elder brother in everything. No matter where my elder brother goes, he is always the focus of the crowd. And my talents are limited, no matter how hard I try, I can't seem to catch up.
At that time, I felt grievances occasionally, but more of it was my admiration for my elder brother. I thought it would be good to hide behind the wings of my elder brother for the rest of my life and be an idle prince.
Later, my eldest brother suddenly had an accident, and I was promoted to the position of prince. Only then did I know how difficult it is to be a good prince. I was panicked and worked hard secretly, for fear that if I could not do well, I would be laughed at by the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs.
Whenever I feel tired, I always think of my elder brother, how wonderful it would be if my elder brother is still alive!
As the years passed, I gradually got used to my current life and how to be a good prince. But at this moment, Shuo'er appeared!
From the conversation between the father and the queen, I guessed that Shuo'er is actually the eldest brother's child, although I don't understand why you and the little emperor are keeping it from me. But I am still happy for my elder brother who passed away. But I didn't expect..."
He looked up at Jing and Emperor, with grievance and sorrow in his eyes:
"I didn't expect that my father wanted to change Shuo'er as the crown prince? I also know that the position of crown prince belongs to the eldest brother, but... for some reason, I just can't be reconciled!"
After finishing speaking, he pulled the corners of Jing and Di's robes, and said in a choked voice: "Why, my son is obviously working so hard, but the father can't see his son!
Yesterday at the dinner party, Er Chen saw his father doting on Shuo Er so much, he got angry for a moment and did something wrong. Now that things have failed, if you want to kill or kill, you have to listen to your father and emperor! "
Jing and Di were very angry and disappointed at first, but after listening to the prince's words, they looked at the grievance and desolation in his eyes.
Until the end, Jing and Di couldn't help being touched.
Over the years, because the eldest son is too good, he has indeed neglected the second son.
In his impression, the second son has always been a gentle and well-behaved child, always sitting behind others without fighting.
He also knew that it would be unfair to Qi Yu if he wanted to make Shuo Er the crown prince again.
From Qi Yu's standpoint, it seems reasonable that he would do such a thing.
Born in the emperor's family, if he were Qi Yu, he might have acted even more decisively.
pity! The prince is not an object, it is related to the country and the country. Compared with Qi Yu, Feng Shuo is more suitable to be an emperor.
Feng Shuo looked at this scene in disbelief. Everything today was planned in advance by them, in order to force the prince to do it himself, and then bring Jing and the emperor over,
He originally thought that the prince would surely break through, and they had already arranged a backup. As long as Jing and the emperor saw the prince's martial arts with their own eyes, all the plots would be self-defeating.
But now, with just a few words from the prince, Jing and Emperor's expressions eased.
Although Feng Shuo is extremely smart, he is only six years old after all, so naturally he doesn't understand these complicated human relationships.
Seeing that Jing and the emperor were about to help the prince up, he couldn't help but stepped forward, staring at the prince with a stern face:
"No, you are lying, obviously you killed my parents!"
Anyway, the face has been torn apart now, and when will these words not be said.
The prince was stunned for a moment, turned his head to meet Feng Shuo's cold phoenix eyes, and smiled wryly:
"I admit that I want to kill you, but there is nothing wrong with wanting to commit a crime. My elder brother is so kind to me, how could I do anything to my elder brother? Besides, I was only fifteen years old at the time, and I stayed in the hospital all day long. Imperial Palace, how can you kill Big Brother!"
Feng Shuo was unmoved, and still looked at him steadfastly: "I saw you kill my mother with my own eyes."
The prince sighed helplessly, as if he didn't want to argue with a child, and said casually: "You say yes! But you are young, so you must not listen to Zen words. After all, you must pay attention to evidence in everything."
Feng Shuo wanted to say something, but was stopped by Qin Yan, who silently shook his head at him.
