Late at night, the candles in the Banque Embassy were still burning.
When the moon disappeared, it began to rain in the capital.
Although the sound of rain covered up some of the sounds of weapons and dispersed the faint smell of blood in the air, it still could not hide everything.
The female captain of the guards, Donna, had been sitting by the window, holding a long sword in both hands, looking out through the window with an extremely solemn expression.
Fu Jun stared at her for a long time and wanted to stand up.
Donna looked over and asked, "What are you going to do?"
Gongzi Yun replied politely, "You've been standing by the window for nearly two hours. Why don't you take a break? I'll go check on you."
Donna shook her head: "Forget it, just stay here."
Fu Yun thought the other party was underestimating him, so he straightened his back and prepared to defend himself: "Although I am a prince, I have always been good at riding and shooting, and I have also learned sword techniques and boxing."
Ah Si, who was hiding in the dark, felt helpless.
He had followed Fu Yun since he was a child, so he naturally knew the worth of his own young master.
Riding and archery are good, but they are at best a way to strengthen the body. At best, they are just fancy moves that are not worthy of being put on the stage.
However, since the young master said so, he must want to show his masculinity. In addition, there are many secret guards deployed nearby, so the safety factor is high enough, so there is no need for me to go over and expose it.
So Ah Si didn't say much and just stayed in the dark.
But Donna still refused: "No, don't come over."
Fu Jun was puzzled: "Why?"
Donna said seriously, "You look so thin and tall, like you could be blown down by the wind. It's so cold tonight, what if you get sick?"
This posture clearly shows that he treats the Seventh Young Master as a paper man that can be broken with a single poke.
Ah Si laughed in his heart, thinking that the young master would definitely not accept this reason and would always want to show his manliness.
Unexpectedly, Fu Jun actually sat back down, even took the heater beside her, and said obediently, "Okay, I won't go over. Donna still cares about me."
Ah Si: ...
Where is the masculinity you promised?
Where is the manliness you promised?
Can you really put your whole brain into love?
But at this moment, the rain outside gradually stopped, and even the sounds of fighting subsided a lot.
A black-clad secret guard knelt outside the door and spoke through the panel, "Sir, we have fulfilled our mission. The palace is now safe. The king is unharmed, and the palace servants have only suffered sporadic injuries. The criminals who attempted to break in have been subdued, and the thieves who attempted to assassinate the king have also been apprehended."
Fu Jun's warm smile towards Donna faded.
He put the heater aside, raised his eyes slightly, and said in a cold voice: "How is it outside the city?"
The secret guard replied, "The Third Young Master has already gone with the Tiger Talisman. After killing the judge, we will secure the barracks and await your instructions."
Fu Yun knew that she had won.
As long as the city is stable and there is no major chaos, whoever controls the military power will have the initiative.
Now, as long as he gave the order, the third son Fu Dan would lead his troops into the city. Not to mention the position of crown prince, he could even threaten the King of Qi to abdicate and let someone else take over.
But Fu Yun didn't want to do that.
After all, there are immortals in the city, and I still have to save my face. It would be good if I could do it with justification.
He tapped his fingertips on the table and said quickly, "Go tell Third Brother not to act rashly for the time being. Have everyone stay put and make a decision after daybreak."
The secret guard responded and left quickly.
Fu Yun straightened his clothes and stood up leisurely.
Before leaving, he looked at Donna, the ice and snow on his face melting away, and a warm look appeared on his face: "Will you come with me?"
Donna knew that the other party was going to enjoy the fruits of victory, and tomorrow morning, this person should become the crown prince of Qi.
In the future, he will be the king of the most powerful country on this continent.
And he is pleased with himself.
Donna's eyelashes trembled, but she didn't nod. She just said, "No, I'm sleepy. Please do as you please."
After saying this, he stopped looking at him and went into the inner room with his sword in hand.
Fu Yun didn't chase after him, but just shouted from behind: "Don't go out tomorrow. After the morning court, go to ask father for permission to marry us!"
Donna paused slightly, and the next second she disappeared from his sight as if escaping.
The Seventh Young Master achieved great success in both his career and love life in one night. He couldn't hide the smile on his face and was extremely happy in his heart.
And this good mood did not diminish in the slightest until they reached the dark dungeon.
This allowed him to maintain a gentle smile and a lively voice when he saw his brothers who were about to rebel: "This happened suddenly and we were unprepared. I ask you brothers to rest here for a while. After I report to my father tomorrow, I will find a good place for you to stay."
No one said a word. Only the Second Young Master raised his eyes. Even though he looked embarrassed, he still spoke with sarcasm: "Wouldn't it be simpler if you just said confinement?"
Fu Jun seemed to be completely oblivious to the subtle meaning behind his words: "If Second Brother thinks so, then he's not wrong."
The second young master was furious: "Are you here just to laugh at us?"
Fu Yun nodded obediently: "Yes."
...Fuck!
The second young master grabbed the chain in his hand and tried to stand up.
Unexpectedly, before he could make any move, the jailer outside took a thin steel rod, stretched it through the gap between the iron bars of the dungeon, and hit the second young master's knee mercilessly.
"ah!"
With a cry of pain, he collapsed.
Fu Yun's smile remained unchanged, and her voice was as gentle as usual: "I advise brother to be honest. If you are sent to captivity in the future, I am afraid there will be no one to serve you. Everything depends on self-sufficiency. If your leg is broken, I am afraid you will starve to death."
The second young master was in so much pain that his teeth were clenched and cold sweat was dripping down his face. He wanted to scold him, but all he could do was cry out in pain.
Fu Yun continued, "The reason I came here is to ask you brothers, who was it that sent people to Fengwei Mountain to assassinate me?"
After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
They looked at each other, no one admitted it, but neither of them looked calm.
Fu Yun knew what was going on when she saw this.
Without further questioning, the Seventh Young Master stood up and said calmly, "Actually, I want to thank all of you brothers. If it weren't for that near-death experience, I wouldn't have been able to enter the Langyun Fairyland, and none of the things that followed would have happened. So, brothers, don't worry. I will always remember your kindness in encouraging me, and I will definitely spare your lives in the future."
The second young master, who had recovered from his shock, heard this and gritted his teeth, saying fiercely, "You are neither the eldest nor the legitimate heir, yet you forcibly seized the throne. You will not be able to hold on for long! I look forward to the day when I will go to hell with you... Ah!"
Before he could finish his words, Ah Si had already raised his hand and struck him with the hilt of the sword.
It hit the second young master's cheek accurately, giving him a big slap that made his mouth bleed.
He coughed a few times and two white teeth fell out.
Fu Jun was also stunned when he saw this, and then he laughed.
Giving Ah Si a look that said "well done," he walked forward and said through the bars to the young men inside, "Go to hell on your own. I won't accompany you." As he spoke, he smiled again, "I have rights now, I have a lover, and I'll have children in the future. I've even chosen their names. I won't die. I'll live well."
The second young master knew that he had no hope, so he wanted to curse a few times to gain the upper hand.
Unexpectedly, when I opened my mouth, there was a burst of air leaking out...
Fu Jun glanced at it and then looked away, as if she couldn't bear to look at this horrific scene.
But his voice was still gentle. "I will not let you die. This is my promise. I want you to live and see how good a king I can be. And see how bright my future will be."
The young masters knew that they had been defeated and it would be better not to provoke the other party.
But he was still a royal family after all, and he was very upset about his sudden fall.
Then someone said coldly: "But I will die. I will make you bear the infamy of killing your brother, and you will never be able to maintain your innocence!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Yun pulled out the knife from the jailer's waist and threw it in.
A "clang" sound silenced the young men who were originally shouting again.
Then Fu Yun's voice came slowly: "Although I don't care about your life or death, but are you willing to die? If you have this courage and bravery, how could you lose to me? My dear brother, the knife is for you. Take it and cut your neck. It will be quick. I will bear any blame. Take it!"
At the end of her speech, Fu Yun's voice suddenly rose, which scared the embarrassed people.
The young man who had just shouted that he wanted to commit suicide shrank back in fear, not daring to even look at the knife.
Fu Jun seemed to have discussed this result a long time ago. A sneer and indescribable contempt appeared on his face.
But he didn't stay too long. He came here just to have fun, and now that he was done having fun, he turned around and left with his people.
When I walked out of the dungeon, it was already dawn.
There was light between heaven and earth.
However, for the people of Langyun, this night that could change the world line of Qi State did not have much impact on them.
At most, you wake up the next morning and see a new message pop up on your phone.
[Shock! The Qi royal family undergoes a major reshuffle, and he is the one who takes the throne!]
Many people were confused and clicked in to check.
Kun Jingming, who knew all the inside story, commented: "It seems that the system has indeed accumulated enough points and energy to exchange information with the original world."
Teacher Bian asked, "How do you know?"
Kun Jingming deadpanned, "He's mastered all the techniques of the shock department. He's perfected the headline-grabbing technique."
These words made Ji Liang, who was on a video call with Teacher Bian, laugh on the other end of the phone.
Kun Jingming heard the voice and took a look: "It's so early, is there something you want to talk to Ji about?"
Teacher Bian smiled and nodded. "I gave the barbarian a solar-powered listening device before. He seemed to have given it to Queen Banqui as a treasure from the fairyland." He looked at Ji Liang and said, "Find a time to take this thing out. I'll give you the relevant app installation package later. You can use it to determine the location of the object."
Ji Liang was curious: "Is there any other use?"
Teacher Bian replied, "After all, we'll need Ban Kui's cooperation in many areas in the future. As a partner, we should not engage in surveillance. After all, we have to save face."
Ji Liang seemed to understand but nodded.
Kun Jingming read the shocking news at a glance and said, "Although the official decree hasn't been issued yet, Fu Yun should have been confirmed as the crown prince, and there will be no other competitors. Our future mission in Qi should be much smoother."
After hearing this, Ji Liang was a little puzzled. "Why? I've heard you say before that the Seventh Young Master is very intelligent. If you ask him to do something, he will definitely get to the bottom of it. Compared to people like Ban Kui or other small countries who do whatever they are told, Qi State shouldn't be able to carry out its mission so smoothly."
Kun Jingming said calmly, "What I like about him is his intelligence, because only smart people know how to do what's best for themselves."
Ji Liang: "Aren't you afraid that he will destroy the bridge after crossing it?"
Kun Jingming: "By that time we had already returned to our original world. Were we going to destroy the bridge across dimensions?"
Ji Liang thought about it and felt that it was right.
Teacher Bian added lightly, "Most of the time, so-called trust or faith is unreliable. Only by leveraging each other can we achieve the most efficient results."
Kun Jingming raised the corner of his mouth: "Teacher Bian is absolutely right."
Ji Liang: ...In high-end games, I couldn’t understand and chose to mute the microphone.
At this moment, the King of Qi sent an envoy, saying that a banquet had been set up and invited everyone from Langyun to come.
Kun Bian and the other two knew that they were going to establish a crown prince, so they were invited to watch the ceremony. They did not refuse and went with them.
After hanging up the phone, Ji Liang prepared to pack up and start a new day.
He wanted to use this time to teach the Banqui people the basic techniques of building greenhouses and maximize their farming talents.
But at this moment, Ji Liang saw that the phone showed that the new app had been installed.
He was stunned for a moment before he realized that this was the control program of the monitoring device that Teacher Bian had just sent over.
So Ji Liang clicked it and prepared to check the location.
It turns out this thing has plenty of power and has obviously been getting plenty of sun exposure.
And it keeps working.
Ji Liang pressed the button casually, and heard a familiar voice: "I've made up my mind. The child's matter needs to be put on the agenda."
This voice...the Queen?
Ji Liang had already opened the door and was about to go out, but when he heard the noise, he stopped and closed the door.
But after he sat back in his chair, he realized that eavesdropping was not a good idea.
Just as I was wondering whether to turn it off, I heard another voice over there: "Is the King getting married?"
The Queen quickly replied, "Having children has nothing to do with getting married."
This one sentence made Ji Liang imagine the noble smile on the queen's face when she said this.
Well, you are worthy of it.
Then the Queen's voice was heard again: "The Immortal Lord is right. I am a mortal, not a statue that feeds on incense. I want an heir, but the father of this child must be chosen carefully."
"Has the king chosen someone?"
After a moment's silence, the Queen did not answer directly, but said, "Our ancestors have said that our Banque royal family is descended from the gods, and the people believe it. However, you and I both know that this is not true. We are just mortals, no different."
"Your Majesty..."
"But since there's this legend, why shouldn't I make it come true? Giving birth to a son of God would be a blessing for me, Bankui."
This sentence not only stunned the queen's confidants, but also made Ji Liang's eyes widen.
Son of God, as the name suggests, is the child of God.
And in this world, the only one who can be considered a god is Lang Yun...
Just when Ji Liang was stunned, his confidant hurriedly asked: "The immortals of Langyun can control lightning, so it's not easy for the king to use force!"
Ji Liang shuddered.
Use force?
This...the queen is the queen, so direct.
The Queen laughed and said, "Of course not. Everything should be done with mutual consent. Besides, how dare I force a god to do something? I'm afraid they might be too old to do it. But nothing is impossible in this world. I can always try my best."
"It sounds like the king has already made up his mind."
"What do you think, Immortal Lord Ji?"
…???
Ji Liang, who was happily waiting to hear the gossip, almost fell off his chair.
He held the phone in a daze until the sound went silent, then he reacted.
What does this trend mean?
Did you eat the melon yourself?
Just as he was stunned, someone came over. From the sound of his voice, it was the Queen's confidant. "Is Immortal Lord Ji here? My king wants to go to the greenhouse to check on the progress today. He has prepared a carriage. Would you like to come with me?"
Ji Liang panicked and said directly: "I'm not here!"
After hearing this, his confidant was dumbfounded, and Ji Liang also felt that he might have a serious illness.
He hurriedly made up an excuse to send the man away, then locked the door, took out his cell phone tremblingly, and called Teacher Bian back in a panic.
Teacher Bian is currently in the palace of the State of Qi. In front of him are various dishes, most of which are made according to the recipes passed down by Lang Yun. They are absolutely delicious in color, aroma and taste, and one look at them makes one's mouth water.
Just the smell is enough to make you unable to miss it.
But Ji Liang was in Bankui, which was definitely a critical place. So even though Teacher Bian was hungry, he still put down his chopsticks, leaned slightly, answered the phone, and said in a gentle voice: "Student Ji, it's me. Is there any progress on the mission in Bankui?"
Unexpectedly, what I got was a series of indistinct grunts.
Ji Liang was obviously hesitant, his face flushing and whitening, his eyes red. It took him a long time to squeeze out a sentence: "The mission has not progressed, I am about to be progressed."
……ah?
Teacher Bian was stunned for a moment, then thought something had happened to him again. He frowned and asked, "Tell me what happened slowly. Are the barbarians causing trouble again, or is it some country trying to rob us?"
Ji Liang shook his head repeatedly, looked up, and made sure the door was still properly guarded. Then he whispered, "Teacher, I want to do the mission somewhere else. I don't want to do it in Bankui anymore. Tomorrow... No, I want to leave today."
Teacher Bian was surprised: "The oil is almost done, and we can go back soon. This place is where you can earn the most points right now. Why are you still thinking of leaving?"
Ji Liang wanted to cry but couldn't. After all, he was still young and it was his first time to encounter such a thing. His words were incoherent. "No, according to the current situation, I'm sixteen years old, still a minor, and protected by the law! The other dimension is not a lawless place!"
Teacher Bian: ...
After Ji Liang panicked and told Teacher Bian what he had just heard, Teacher Bian had a complicated expression.
At this time, Kun Jingming noticed the movement here, and tilted his head slightly and asked, "What's wrong?"
Teacher Bian didn't know what to say for a moment.
After thinking for a moment, he said softly, "These days, boys have to learn to protect themselves when they are outside."
Kun Jingming: ???
