Li Zhu and Murong Niannian chatted for a long time, and seeing that it was getting late, Li Zhu prepared to leave...
He went through every single word Murong Niannian said from beginning to end and found no loopholes, which made him trust Murong Niannian even more...
This situation startled him. If all of this was just a facade, then what was the truth? Why did Murong Niannian appear so suddenly? She clearly possessed the power to overturn everything, so why was she deliberately getting close to him?
She could have crushed him like an ant, yet she humbled herself to get close to Li Zhu, which makes it even more incomprehensible…
Why didn't he kill me?
Li Zhu's mind was in turmoil; the situation was becoming increasingly complicated...
What exactly is the other party's purpose? This is what Li Zhu finds hard to believe...
Li Zhu took a deep breath and said reluctantly.
"Little brother, this will make things difficult for you..."
"It's my wish to protect my brother, and I don't feel wronged at all..."
The two chatted for a while longer, and finally both smiled...
After leaving Murong Niannian, Li Zhu gradually calmed down. Regardless of the other party's purpose, he only needed to observe the situation and let things play out for a while...
"Fire has broken out..."
A sudden shout startled Li Zhu awake. He looked up and discovered that his palace was on fire again…
Upon seeing this scene, Li Zhu could only think of two words: Holy crap!
"Who on earth is this person? How could they be so ruthless and insane?"
Li Zhu roared in anger. The palace was almost fully repaired, and now it had been burned down again. How could Li Zhu not be furious? He thought to himself, "Why don't you just build a different one? It was just finished, and now it's like this again..."
However, Li Zhu soon realized a problem: Xun Daoren knew that he already knew about the underground palace...
So they planned to use this passage to set Li Zhu on fire...
This was a warning to him, and also a demonstration. He wanted Li Zhu to understand one thing: in the Central Plains, even if the New Tang Dynasty was the new ruler, their Heavenly Alliance was the true descendant of the Son of Heaven, supreme and unparalleled…
Having figured all this out, Li Zhu's anger was understandable. No matter what, he was the Crown Prince of the new Tang Dynasty, and to be ridden on and humiliated like this was an absolute disgrace...
If this had happened in the first few days after he transmigrated, he would have accepted it. But now that he has survived several brushes with death, how could he possibly back down like this?
Li Zhu found it hard to swallow this insult. They say a gentleman takes revenge even after ten years, but he didn't consider himself a gentleman, so revenge had to be taken as soon as possible…
Where is Wang Yanzhang?
Li Zhu roared, and then saw Wang Yanzhang rushing over with a long spear in hand, replying excitedly.
"Your Highness, I am here. Who is the enemy? Let me choose him..."
Li Zhu's lips twitched. He thought to himself, "Couldn't it be a little less bloody?" But he needed bloodshed right now; otherwise, how could he wash away such humiliation?
"Go and gather five thousand Imperial Guards. We're going to help put out a fire tonight."
Wang Yanzhang was stunned for a moment, looking at the fire in his own Crown Prince's palace with some bewilderment. Why would they go to help put out someone else's fire instead of their own? And there were no other fires in Luoyang, were there? Even if there were, it wouldn't require five thousand people to put out, would it?
"Your Highness, are you sure you're taking five thousand Imperial Guards to put out a fire, and not to kill people?"
Wang Yanzhang looked at Li Zhu with a puzzled expression. His menacing demeanor clearly indicated he wanted to kill someone, whoever it was, as long as he had a gun, he could just pick on the target…
"Of course we should put out the fire! We are civilized people, let's not resort to violence all the time, that's rude!"
Wang Yanzhang rolled his eyes at him. I'm rude, but who's the one who keeps yelling "Cut him down" all the time?
However, he didn't continue to refute, but instead harbored a grudge, he turned around and went to summon the Imperial Guards...
Li Zhu then turned and went to the room where Zhu Yeqing was. After speaking with Zhu Yeqing for a while, he instructed it to do as he was told…
Where is Zhao Feng?
"Your Highness, is this subordinate here?"
Zhao Feng was still a little resentful. Li Zhu had just called Wang Yanzhang but not him, which meant that Li Zhu subconsciously thought Wang Yanzhang was more important. However, he did not express these feelings. He had only been following the Crown Prince for a short time, and he believed that it would not be difficult for him to gain Li Zhu's favor with his own abilities.
How far can your arrows travel?
"Within fifty paces, it's a perfect shot; at a hundred paces, it can still hit a target; and beyond a hundred paces, it can still kill..."
Zhao Feng hesitated for a moment, then said very conservatively!
"Hmm, indeed a master archer. Today I'll give you a chance to shoot an arrow. Whether I can get revenge for my palace being burned down depends on you..."
Li Zhu looked at Zhao Feng seriously and said!
Zhao Feng paused for a moment, his gaze falling on the still-burning palace. This was the second time his palace had been set on fire since he began serving the Crown Prince…
As the crown prince of the new Tang Dynasty, this was not only a shameful thing, but also a great blow to the prestige of the new Tang Dynasty...
Put yourself in his shoes. If he were the crown prince, and his palace had been burned down repeatedly, he would have accumulated unimaginable anger. At this moment, Li Zhu may appear calm, but he is definitely a volcano that could erupt at any moment...
These thoughts flashed through Zhao Feng's mind, and an unimaginable pressure welled up inside him. But a scholar would die for one who understands him; Li Zhu valued him so much and had given him this opportunity. Whatever he did, he had to do his best. With this in mind, Zhao Feng said firmly.
"Your Highness, I swear to complete this mission, even at the cost of my life!"
"You won't die, but you only have one chance. Otherwise, once you're discovered, you're truly dead, because they won't give you a chance to escape..."
Thinking of how terrifying Xun Daoren was, Li Zhu still felt lingering fear. Although this plan was hastily made, it was all aimed at Xun Daoren, so it was not an exaggeration to be extremely cautious...
This made Zhao Feng's gaze even more resolute. He felt that since the Crown Prince had said so, his role must be very important, so he couldn't let the Crown Prince down. He couldn't afford to make a mistake, even if it meant death...
"Your Highness, rest assured, with me here, everything will be resolved with a single arrow..."
"Haha... Alright, go prepare a rocket. Don't light it yet. I'll tell you what to do when I need to..."
"I will obey His Highness's orders!"
Zhao Feng withdrew to prepare, and as time passed, the fire in the palace was extinguished. News of this serious matter quickly reached the ears of the Imperial Study and Nangong Qing. Both had a bad feeling, but had no idea how to stop it…
