Xianzong walked out of the room, looked at the untrimmed flowers and trees in the courtyard, and said to his son-in-law and two younger brothers: "It seems that I can't go on like this..."
Gu Xinglang didn't dare to answer, but the two princes were very brave. Prince Yu immediately said, "Your Majesty, what do you want?"
Prince Rui curled his lips and smiled. Fourth Yu was lucky in this life as he had a strong mother. So even if this guy got the throne, it was the queen who used all her scheming and fought her way to the throne. This guy had no other abilities except playing with women and eating, drinking and having fun.
Xianzong stood in the corridor, took a deep breath, and said, "I must survive."
Prince Rui and Prince Yu just thought that this guy had been drawn again.
Emperor Xianzong turned his head to look at Gu Xinglang, thinking about the daughter who betrayed her father in the room. Emperor Xianzong straightened his waist, which had shrunk a lot, brushed his sleeves, and said to the two princes: "Let me make it clear in advance. I know a little about the methods of Mo Wen, the bald donkey. If any of you two want to get involved with Mo Wen, I will never let you off easily."
Prince Yu said, "Your Majesty, how could we, your humble servants, get involved with Mo Wen?"
"The throne," Xianzong said two words.
Prince Yu's expression froze.
Xianzong looked at his two younger brothers and said, "If you kill me, you will only be puppets in Mo Wen's hands."
Prince Rui then straightened his attitude and said to Emperor Xianzong, "Your Majesty, I will never be deceived by Mo Wen."
"Oh," Xianzong smiled and said, "Don't pretend to be a good brother to me now."
Prince Rui's cheeks trembled twice and he said nothing more.
Prince Yu opened his mouth to say something, but finally closed it.
Gu Xinglang was bewildered as he watched from the side. How could something be going well for them and then this guy started to quarrel again?
"Although I have paid tribute to Mo Wen every year, at least we can make the decisions on Fengtian's affairs," Xianzong said in a low voice, "If Mo Wen were to become our Fengtian's family, I would rather destroy this country than leave it to him."
Prince Yu said, "Your Majesty, things have not come to this."
"I am telling you two the ugly truth," Xianzong said, "You two are not born loyal. You are honest princes only because the cost of betraying me is high and the gain is small. Don't ask if you can set your heart right if that bald donkey promises you the throne. I have no confidence in you."
As soon as Emperor Xianzong said this, Prince Rui and Prince Yu both knelt down. These words were so heartbreaking that they had no choice but to kneel.
"The fifth prince will go east, and the ninth prince will go south of the Yangtze River." Xianzong did not let the two princes stand up, but stood with his hands behind his back and said, "I will take care of my nephews."
"I obey your order," the two princes said.
"We can have family affairs behind closed doors," Emperor Xianzong thought about it and reminded the two princes, "If anyone colludes with outsiders to deal with our family, don't blame me for not recognizing you as my brother."
"I dare not," the two princes bowed their heads to the ground.
"Get up," Xianzong said, "and follow me to meet the court officials."
Gu Xinglang watched the two princes stand up, and then followed Xianzong. Xianzong glanced at the two princes who were far away from him and his son-in-law, and then whispered to Gu Xinglang: "You have kept your father's affairs to me."
Gu Xinglang didn't understand what Emperor Xianzong meant. Was he going to make his father never see the light of day again? "What does the emperor mean?" Gu Xinglang asked his father-in-law.
Xianzong said, "What is a medicine man? Linglong's brain is growing grass, is your brain also growing grass?"
Gu Xinglang..., he really couldn't keep up with his father-in-law's ideas.
"When the war starts, Mo Wen will definitely release the medicine man he keeps," Xianzong said to Gu Xinglang, "If more people die at the hands of the medicine man, what do you think people in the world will think of him?"
Gu Xinglang pursed his lips.
"Do you think that bald donkey will still pretend to be a saint in front of the world when the swords are drawn?" Xianzong whispered, "The medicine man will definitely become the target of public criticism. What will happen to your father then? We know that he is not a medicine man, but can the world believe him? I want to gain the trust of the world. Should I keep your father or not?"
The expression on Gu Xinglang's face became increasingly ugly.
"You are so used to fighting with Linglong that you don't know how to use your brain anymore?" Xianzong sighed as he looked at Gu Xinglang. "Linglong is good at fighting, but no matter how good she is, can she kill everyone in the world? You don't understand what the public opinion means, do you?"
Gu Xinglang said: "I understand."
"Don't blame me for not letting your father see the light of day," Xianzong said, "The dead should return to dust and earth to earth."
"I dare not blame Your Majesty," Gu Xinglang said, "I and my brothers will discuss and come to an outcome regarding my father's matter."
"What's the point of discussing the results?" Xianzong said, "Don't you see that Linglong doesn't want to send your father off again?"
“Your Majesty…”
"Debts, these are all debts!" Xianzong said angrily, "I didn't worry so much about raising my son!"
"Is Fourth Master Yu determined to become a wise ruler?" Prince Yu looked at the father-in-law and son-in-law who were walking and talking in low voices in front of him, and asked Prince Rui.
Prince Rui had a gloomy face and said nothing.
Prince Yu took a look at the Fifth Brother's face and whispered, "No way? Did Mo Wen really come to see you?"
Prince Rui rolled his eyes at Prince Yu and said, "Do you want me to die?"
Prince Yu asked, "Who are you showing this face to?"
"We can see that chaos is coming," Prince Rui whispered, "If Yu Lao Si continues to think about playing with women all day, he won't have to sit on the dragon throne in the Golden Palace."
Prince Yu staggered.
Prince Rui gritted his teeth and said, "I would rather help Linglong become the empress than let Yu Laosi lead me to death!"
Prince Yu..., it seems that this father and daughter are a pair of scumbags, right? Fifth brother, how did you know that their eldest niece is better than Yu Lao Si?
Inside the room, the footsteps of Master Chengguan and other Xianzong and others faded away. Only then did he look at Master Fenglin and said, "I didn't expect that Master would come."
Young Master Fenglin took off his hood once again and sat down beside the bed.
"Did you see it?" Yu Xiao: "Master, your hair has grown longer."
Master Fenglin said unhappily, "Living people naturally grow hair."
Yu Xiao: "Then how should I say this?"
"Keep your hair," said Master Fenglin.
"Keep your hair," Yu Xiaoxiao said to Master Chengguan.
The corner of National Master Chengguan's mouth twitched. The last time these two met, they seemed like mortal enemies, but now they looked like good friends who had known each other for many years.
"Tell the Imperial Master about your situation," Yu Xiaoxiao said to Master Fenglin, "Even if you stare a hole through my father, he won't wake up."
Junior Master Fenglin glanced at National Master Chengguan.
Yu Xiaoxiao glared and said, "What do you mean? Do you still look down on our national teacher?"
Junior Master Fenglin had no choice but to tell his story again to National Master Chengguan.
"National Master," Yu Xiaoxiao said to National Master Chengguan after Junior Master Fenglin finished speaking, "I think you are a very lucky person to be able to escape from the Eternal Life Temple so early. You are a favorite of God."
