Time flies, and the day Liu Yuanshan mentioned comes. In the early morning, he sits in a rocking chair in his small courtyard and waits.
Judging from Liu Yuanshan's attitude of asking him for help even after beating around the bush, as long as the fake prince comes, Liu Yuanshan will definitely be brought to him.
And even if he was anxious, it was Liu Yuanshan who was anxious. What he had to be anxious about was that drinking was more important.
"Huh?" Chen Qing took the wine gourd and poured it towards his opponent's mouth. However, he found that the wine had been finished and he couldn't help but smacked his lips in disappointment.
"Girl, please help me fill up this gourd. I want bamboo leaves and green leaves, thank you." Chen Chen waved the wine gourd towards the maid not far away.
"How about you drink it?" A gentle male voice sounded.
The maid who originally wanted to agree was startled and quickly bent over and knelt down.
In the morning, I looked in the direction of the sound and saw a handsome young man in a purple robe and jade belt walking in with a smile, carrying a jar of wine.
Her long black hair was meticulously gathered on top of her head, bound by an exquisite golden crown, and she had a pair of beautiful red phoenix eyes that were very similar to Lin Cheng's.
He is wearing a well-fitting purple robe. Although it is a robe, it is more like a training suit. It is slightly tight and the corners of the robe are sealed with gold thread.
He wears a pair of water-patterned black trousers on his lower body, and a pair of gorgeous embroidered cloud-stepping boots on his feet. He makes no sound when walking, which also means that this person has relatively high martial arts skills.
"The donor is..." Ling Chen narrowed his eyes and asked knowingly. Not only that, but he never got up and showed off his airs.
"Master Three Burials, I am Lin Xiang, the crown prince of Zhenshan." The young man stopped and bowed his hands in front of Chen Wen. At least on the surface, he didn't have any qualms about not getting up to greet him in the morning.
"Is that you? Your Majesty, please sit down." Ling Chen sat up straight and extended his hand to motion for Lin Xiang to sit down.
"Thank you Master Sanzong. You all go down and don't let anyone in." Lin Xiang bowed again and said to the servants around him.
"Here." The maid's servants responded in unison and walked out quickly, leaving only the two of them in the small courtyard.
"Is Mr. Liu not here?" He asked after seeing everyone had left in the early morning.
"Mr. Liu said that he would not come, so he asked me to come alone to ask for advice." Lin Xiang put the wine jar on the small table, picked up the hem and sat on the other side.
"Haha...it saves him trouble." Ling Chen couldn't help but sneered when he heard this.
Of course, this sneer was intentional in the morning, to show that although he respected Liu Yuanshan, his status was not below Liu Yuanshan. If Lin Xiang couldn't even hear this, then there was no need to waste his time.
"What Master Sanzong said is that Mr. Liu really doesn't dare to come. After all, he tricked you, didn't he." Lin Xiang smiled gently after hearing this.
Hearing this in the early morning, he frowned slightly. Liu Yuanshan's trust in Lin Xiang was much higher than he thought. Even telling Lin Xiang such a thing seemed a bit ridiculous what he just said.
"He's very nice to you. He even told you such things." Ling Chen smiled and joked.
"Mr. Liu is very kind to me. He even taught me how to practice martial arts. To me, Mr. Liu is no less than my father." Lin Xiang explained.
Hearing this, Chen Qian raised his eyebrows. Is Lin Xiang ordering him? Do you want to tell him that Lin Xiang is not an outsider and can be trusted?
But it's a pity that Lin Xiang was wrong. He was really an outsider in the early morning, at least for a long time. He agreed to help this time because he couldn't see Lin Cheng's behavior, that's all.
"Really? That's good. So what's wrong with you?" Ling Chen twitched his lips and abruptly changed the subject.
Lin Xiang was stunned when he saw this. This was different from what he thought when he came here. Even after talking about it, why was this Third Burial monk still so cold?
But since everything was asked, he couldn't say anything else. Lin Xiang took a deep breath, and then looked at Ling Chen seriously.
"Master Three Burials, is what I want to do right or wrong?"
"When this sentence comes to your mind, don't you already have the answer?" Ling Chen asked.
"This... is true, but..." Lin Xiang hesitated, as if he didn't know what language to use to describe his thoughts.
"Look at that." Chenchen pointed at the ground not far away and said.
Lin Xiang heard the sound and looked in the direction that Chen Chen was pointing, and found a small group of ants fighting with a beetle. Lin Xiang looked at Chen Chen with some confusion.
"The poor monk asked you, which one of them is wrong?" Ling Chen asked as he watched the group of ants and beetles fighting.
"This... is correct." Lin Xiang thought for a while and answered truthfully.
"Yes, they are all right, but why are they trapped in this life-and-death fight?" Chen Chen continued to ask without even looking at Lin Xiang.
"For... to live?" Lin Xiang frowned and asked tentatively.
Snapped!
"Smartness is all about living." Chen Chen said, snapping his fingers.
Lin Xiang was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously looked at the place where the ants and beetles were fighting. Looking at it, he seemed to see the fight between him and his hypocritical father.
"High-ranking people need to be ruthless. Too much emotion is detrimental to their rule. From an absolutely rational point of view, there is nothing wrong with your father Lin Cheng's approach, and it is even very correct." Ling Chen's words were shocking.
"You!" Lin Xiang stood up suddenly and pointed at Qing Chen angrily. He seemed to want to say something, but he didn't say it. His expression changed for a while and then he sat down again.
"What? You don't agree? This is normal, but as you said, Liu Yuanshan, the so-called Yafu, do you know his identity?" Ling Chen asked with calm eyes.
"I know, people from Bone Spirit Sea." Lin Xiang's face darkened, but he still answered.
"Yes, that's right, but if he is an important figure in the Bone Spirit Sea, will he be sent out? If there is a problem with the cooperation with you, he will definitely be the first to die. Do you believe it?" Ling Chen asked.
Lin Xiang's expression changed for a moment when he heard this, but he didn't speak, because he knew that what he said in the early morning was right. What kind of big shot could he be running errands outside?
"What do you want to say!?" Lin Xiang asked impatiently.
"I just want to tell you that no matter how much you think about it, it's useless. Other people's opinions are not important. What's important is your own thoughts. If you think your father is wrong, then it is wrong."
"The fact that you came to this poor monk to discuss this issue shows that you are hypocritical. You want to find a peaceful reason for killing your father." Ling Chen looked at Lin Xiang indifferently and said.
"But, just like what Lin Cheng did, it doesn't matter whether it's right or not. What's important is that he did it. For you, this thing is a harm, but for others, it's just a small thing."
"This matter can even be said to be a harmless thing, do you understand? But if you think he is wrong, and you want to survive, then you have to bear the charge of patricide, even if no one knows!"
Chen Xiang's words shocked Lin Xiang into a daze. He felt that all his clothes had been taken off by Chen Chen, and all his thoughts were revealed.
He really wanted to find a legitimate reason to reduce the impact of his father's murder and make him feel better.
But now, I came here to ask for advice, but it had the opposite effect, and I got sprayed with blood.
