Three days later, in the Southern Barbarian Land, at the Grand Prince’s Mansion.
As the residence of a prince, the eldest prince's residence is not luxurious, but rather exudes a simple atmosphere. Unlike the other two princes' residences which are magnificent, the expense of the plaque outside the gate alone is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Deep in the courtyard, beneath the willow trees, a man in dark black clothing, his hair crowned like jade, held a spear in hand. He was graceful and powerful, his posture erect, his steps steady. Sometimes he thrust the spear forward, sometimes he swung it behind him, agile and endless.
His forehead was covered in sweat, his face was rosy, and the veins on his arms and neck were slightly bulging, but his breath was still frighteningly steady.
Outsiders all say that the current emperor dotes on the third prince Jun Yan. In order to ensure that he can be successfully appointed as the crown prince, he did not hesitate to send Jun Mu, who has no martial arts skills and only has some achievements in writing, to the southern barbarian land.
On the surface, it was to intimidate the barbarian who intended to provoke a war, but secretly it was to warn him not to covet the supreme position.
But they didn't know that the eldest prince Jun Mu had concealed the fact of his martial arts competition for decades, and never revealed even a hint of it. Even the soldiers who had taken over for half a year were unaware of this matter.
The soldiers in the army have always looked down on these weak princes, especially those who are unable to protect themselves but want to interfere in military affairs.
He only regarded the eldest prince Jun Mu as a poor prince who had no imperial power to rely on and was exiled to suffer. He only respected him on the surface, but actually felt dissatisfied in his heart.
If today's scene were seen by the soldiers, many of them would probably be shocked.
On the side path, a servant in black was holding something in his hand and was rushing towards the man who was playing with the spear in a panic.
Looking at the master who was practicing in front of him, Ji Feng did not go forward directly, but stood to the side, bowed slightly, and said slowly after a salute:
"Your Highness, there's a letter from Rongping."
Upon hearing this, the man called "Your Highness" paused his movements and stopped, then threw the spear to the side. The servant standing next to him caught it quickly and put it aside.
Jun Mu looked at the bamboo tube for delivering messages in Ji Feng's hand. He first took the cloth beside him to wipe his hands, and then dismissed the other people present, leaving only Ji Feng alone.
Seeing this, Jifeng handed the bamboo tube in his hand a few more times, then lowered his head slightly to avoid sight.
Jun Mu reached out and took it, slowly pulling out the silk from the bamboo tube. After seeing the contents clearly, his brows slowly relaxed, and he sneered again:
"It seems that my third brother is really impatient. He can't wait to establish his connections in the court before he even becomes the crown prince."
When it came to poaching people, he didn't know whether he should praise his third brother for his good eye for talent or scold him for being stupid. He explained such a big plan to everyone he met in detail.
However, if the good father knew that his beloved son was secretly plotting to seize his throne and even secretly raised private soldiers, I wonder what kind of expression would appear on his face.
I think it should be extremely beautiful, but I don’t know whether the throne is more important or his good son is more important.
Thinking of this, Jun Mu took out a fire starter from his arms, waited for it to rekindle, and then set the silk on fire, completely destroying the corpse.
Ji Feng didn't dare to speak, but just stood there quietly waiting for Jun Mu's instructions.
"Did the secret guards who stayed with him convey any message?" Jun Mu frowned a little more when he thought of the person who delivered the message to him, and he still had some doubts in his heart.
