Chapter 523 I am myself
Until now, he still couldn't believe what happened.
He would personally lead people to capture his beloved nephew and lock him in a black iron cage.
His uncle's question, which he couldn't believe, was like a hammer weighing tens of millions of pounds, hitting the softest part of Jincheng's heart.
He sniffed and walked to the cage: "Uncle, I'm not playing. The competition is real, and the cage is real. I have been planning this day for a long time."
The string in Luo Jingfeng's heart broke.
His eyes were red, but he still shouted unwillingly: "Who is it! Who instigated you? Tell me, was it Zong Zhao or Chu Heng? Did they instigate you?!"
Luo Jingfeng looked around angrily, but didn't see any suspicious figures, not even Zong Zhao, who was as close to him as a father and son.
Jin Cheng shook his head and said with tears in his eyes, "It was me. From the beginning to the end, it was all my idea. No one gave me advice, no one helped me make a plan, and no one helped me implement it. I just wanted to defeat you by my own strength."
Luo Jingfeng was stunned and shocked. He suspected that he had heard wrongly and asked in disbelief, "Defeat me? You use this method to defeat me? What on earth do you want to do?"
Jin Cheng trembled his lips and said, "I want military power."
"Military power?" Luo Jingfeng found it ridiculous. What the late emperor had been thinking about for more than ten years was, in his opinion, just a guarantee to protect his family from being bullied.
Cheng'er has a popular prince like Chu Heng by his side. It is impossible for him to hand over the military power when his child is still young. However, Cheng'er doesn't think so. He wants the military power.
He wanted military power.
The reason he wanted military power was because... he didn't trust his uncle.
Luo Jingfeng figured out everything and came up with the answer, but he still couldn't accept it. He held the iron cage tightly, like a wounded lion, and used up his last bit of tenderness to ask in a hoarse voice: "Are you jealous of me?"
Jincheng's eyes were red, and the words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat and he couldn't utter them. His silence seemed like tacit agreement, which stimulated Luo Jingfeng to the point of losing all his rationality.
He laughed loudly, wildly, but also sadly, until tears came out of his eyes, and he kept muttering: "Jealous of me, jealous of me...jealous of me? I cleared the obstacles for you, helped you ascend the throne, expanded the territory for you, and ensured that you sat firmly on the throne. Which uncle in the world can be so good to his nephew? I am sincere to you, how do you treat me? Ah? Chu Jincheng - you are jealous of me, jealous of me, hahahaha... Good, good, good! You are worthy of the surname Chu, you and your father are the real father and son! You are more cruel than him, and your father can't catch up with you!"
Luo Jingfeng was completely crazy.
The nephew he loved most in the world dealt him a severe blow, shattering all his rationality. He said the most cruel words in the world. He wanted everyone to experience the pain of being burned by fire with him!
Luo Jingfeng's screams made Jin Cheng feel the same way. He cried and said, "Uncle, I don't want to come to this point. You always make decisions for me and treat me like a puppet, a doll, a decoration. I can't stand it anymore. I've had enough. I don't want to be hurt by you again and again, so I designed all this. I don't want to kill you, I just want to lock you up and make you listen to me carefully, carefully..."
"Shut up!" Luo Jingfeng yelled back at him, frightening Jin Cheng so much that he trembled and fell to the ground.
If it were in the past, Luo Jingfeng would definitely worry about whether he had fallen or not, but now he knows that his nephew is not that fragile, and may even be pretending!
"Put away your hypocrisy! What do you mean by locking me up? You can kill me if you want. Would I, Luo Jingfeng, be afraid of you?!" Luo Jingfeng looked down at him with contempt, his calm eyes showing madness. "Come on, kill me, kill your own uncle, and let me see if you are ruthless enough as an emperor, and how hard-hearted you royal family members are!"
Jin Cheng stepped back on the ground, covering his ears with his hands.
Because he found that every word Luo Jingfeng said made his heart hurt, more painful than when he was hurt by his uncle again and again.
It turns out that hurting others will really hurt yourself.
Luo Jingfeng was still screaming in despair: "Come on, kill me! How can you be the emperor if you are not ruthless? Isn't this what you want? Come on, kill me!"
Buyan was also very distressed watching from the side.
He went over to help the little emperor up and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, where is the Protector of the Country?"
Ministers who made mistakes would generally be imprisoned in the Dali Temple or the Ministry of Justice, or in death row awaiting execution, without exception.
Jin Cheng said, "Isolate him in my bedroom."
Bu Yan and all the guards were very surprised.
I have never heard of such a solution.
Luo Jingfeng said sarcastically, "Oh, why don't you dare to kill me directly? Are you afraid that the Luo family will rebel after my death? You are so smart, won't you give me the title of dying in battle to protect the king? Why are you still hesitating!"
Jin Cheng looked into his uncle's crazy eyes and told him seriously: "I am not you, nor am I His Highness, nor am I the late emperor. I am an independent person with my own ideas. I will not act according to the wishes of any of you."
Luo Jingfeng laughed sarcastically at this.
He doesn't listen to anything Jin Cheng says now.
Because he thinks it's all fake.
This little liar is full of sweet words and lies.
Bu Yan followed Jin Cheng's instructions and carried the entire black iron cage into his bedroom. Since the cage was only big enough to fit next to the bed, he ordered people to put it there.
After Eunuch Huang arranged the Cuju players, he hurried back, but he didn't expect to see this scene.
My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!
The relationship between uncle and nephew broke up, but it was not the end.
Bu Yan told him, "The emperor went to change his clothes. He said: From now on, the Duke of Huguo will temporarily stay here. Eunuch Huang will take care of his food, accommodation and transportation. No one else is allowed to do it."
Eunuch Huang said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I will obey your order."
It was time for lunch, and Eunuch Huang brought the food over. Before he could put it down, Luo Jingfeng passed through the gap in the cage and kicked the tray away, saying coldly, "Get lost!"
As soon as Jincheng came in, he saw the bowls and plates were broken into pieces.
He was not angry, but calmly arranged: "Eunuch Huang, clean up carefully and bring a new meal."
"Yes, yes, I'll do it right away." Eunuch Huang cleaned the floor and went out again to prepare new meals.
Luo looked up in surprise and saw that he had changed into purple uniform.
It's that identical uncle and nephew outfit.
When he first saw this set of clothes, he just thought that Cheng'er was getting close to him, but it turned out to be a conspiracy, a means to make him relax.
Now he appears in this outfit again, is he mocking his past stupidity?
Luo Jingfeng said to him coldly, "Get lost."
Jincheng never thought that one day, his uncle, who was cruel to outsiders but kind to him, would say these words to him.
But after thinking about it, it was expected.
He pursed his lips, sat on the edge of the bed, and looked at Luo Jingfeng straight in the eye: "Uncle, I once didn't understand why His Highness didn't kill me. Even if he couldn't do it that night twelve years ago, he still had more than ten years to do it. Keeping someone of my status alive, isn't it nurturing a tiger to harm yourself? This doubt made me think about it for a long time and I couldn't understand it. Until now, when the matter fell on you and me, I suddenly understood, I knew what His Highness was thinking. So I also want to give you a chance, can you learn from me and try to be a good person?"
