He has been away from the palace all day, what happened?
"Hey! Let's go, let's go!"
Changsun Wuji didn't care to say too much at the moment, so he grabbed Xu Fenglei's sleeve and ran out.
"Let's talk on the way, let's talk as we go!"
Xu Fenglei could only let him pull him and left Datang Academy.
Inside the room, Li Chunfeng looked at Yuan Tiangang.
"Brother Yuan, is there really a way?"
He looked a little suspicious and said,
"How come I've never heard of it?"
"Tell me and I'll help you identify it."
Yuan Tiangang shook his head.
"What's there to say? There is no way to live as a normal person, but there is always a way to become a living dead."
"It's just that most of the living dead can't wake up, so it's no different from being dead. It's just to miss your relatives and friends more, so that they can accept it easier."
"His Majesty and the principal can always accept this method, but in the end it is all in vain, so I just said that this is self-deception."
Li Chunfeng suddenly realized.
"So that's it."
"What I'm saying...it turns out to be turning people into living dead."
"However, the average living dead only live for a few months, and it is rare for them to live for more than a year. It is too troublesome to care for them...it will only increase the suffering of their loved ones."
Yuan Tiangang nodded.
"That's right, but as the empress, with hundreds of people waiting on her, there is no problem if she wants to survive for a few years. Don't forget that there is also Master Sun, who is a true Taoist doctor! With the power of helping others, The abilities of living people are far superior to ours.”
He responded,
"However, when I was about to speak my mind just now, I was interrupted. This is because of God's will."
"Perhaps God really wants to take the Queen away..."
Speaking of this, Yuan Tiangang couldn't help but sigh.
Those who engage in metaphysics and mystical cultivation do not dare to defy heaven, because if you defy heaven for a moment, how can you continue to defy heaven?
If you fail for a moment, you will lose everything.
So it is said - it is easy to know the nature, but difficult to defy the nature.
"Then why did you arrange a meeting between the principal and Master Yuan?"
Li Chunfeng said with some doubts,
"Does he have other options?"
Yuan Tiangang waved his hand.
"Who knows, that old guy might be able to make a few pointers with his nagging talk."
He hummed softly,
"Everything happens because of the convergence of causes and conditions, so when discussing the life and death of the Queen, we may not necessarily focus on her."
"The old guy always has a tricky and weird way of looking at things. If you try to squeeze him, you might get something unexpected."
Li Chunfeng: "..."
"You are really rude to your uncle."
Yuan Tiangang rolled his eyes.
"What do you know? We have a good relationship! He and I... are just like you and I, we make jokes, there is no distinction between superior and inferior."
"Come on, let's go. If you're hungry, go to the cafeteria to eat. I heard that fried chicken is very popular in Chang'an recently. It's very delicious!"
With that said, he was about to take Li Chunfeng out.
"Fried chicken? Can everything be fried now?"
Li Chunfeng was a little confused and was dragged out of the principal's office by Yuan Tiangang.
…
Tai Chi Palace.
Xu Fenglei's face darkened as he listened to Changsun Wuji's words.
"I do not believe."
He snorted coldly,
"Chengqian can't have such thoughts! Even provocation is impossible!"
"It's not that he doesn't have the courage, but it's absolutely impossible for him to be so stupid! How could such a stupid idiot become my apprentice?"
You want to say that Li Chengqian secretly cultivated his confidants and took advantage of the chaos of Li Yuan's death and the queen's illness to lead troops into the emperor's palace and launch a military coup.
Then he might still believe it, after all, this is still a bit clever.
But Li Chengqian actually shot an arrow into Li Shimin's palace?
What does this mean?
Why don't you just play rap here and show your attitude?
Xu Fenglei absolutely did not believe that Li Chengqian could do such extremely stupid and confusing behavior.
If it was true...then he could find a wall and hit him to death.
"I don't believe it either!"
Changsun Wuji said helplessly,
"But His Majesty is so angry right now. He just thinks that the Crown Prince is up to no good and wants to do bad things!"
"So... I have no choice, so I came to move you as a reinforcement."
Xu Fenglei nodded.
"What did Cheng Qian say? What happened to him?"
he asked again.
Changsun Wuji's expression turned even bitter now.
"I have also been to Tianyao, but His Highness the Crown Prince refused to say a word to me, even if I asked him."
"He either lowered his head or stared at me with a sullen face, which made me feel very scared."
"well……"
After all, he is also Li Chengqian's uncle, but the nephew and uncle are not close to each other.
At this time, he couldn't even get Li Chengqian to speak... he could only come to Xu Fenglei for help.
In this world, the only person in this world who can make Li Chengqian speak is his sister, who is lying on the hospital bed, and this master.
Xu Fenglei frowned.
"Master, should we go to His Majesty first or to the Prince first?"
Changsun Wuji asked cautiously.
"Of course, go to the prince's place and ask the matter clearly first."
Xu Fenglei quickly made arrangements,
"Your Majesty is a kind-hearted person, but when you have a bad temper, you will not be recognized by your relatives, and you will regret it later."
"So, let him take it easy first and calm down his emotions. By then we will understand the whole story and be confident in persuading him."
Changsun Wuji nodded repeatedly.
"Master, it's so easy to see the bottom of it!" he praised.
"Okay, stop flattering me!"
Xu Fenglei patted Changsun Wuji on the shoulder and said,
"Let's go to the prison!"
…
Punishment Department, Tianlao.
Since the emperor ordered the Tianlao to be renovated, the originally dark and damp Tianlao with a musty smell has now really changed its appearance.
Corridors and aisles are all clean and tidy.
There are also special ventilation holes in the row of cells to ensure the circulation of fresh air.
The most amazing thing is that an imperial doctor carrying a medicine box actually walked into the cell in front at this moment to examine the body of the condemned prisoner.
"This treatment is luxurious enough!"
Xu Fenglei smacked his lips and said,
"It seems that we don't have to panic when we commit crimes in the future. We can treat it as if we are eating national food, including three meals a day and medical care."
"I suggest that this treatment should be extended. Maybe one day we will get in."
Changsun Wuji; "..."
"Grandmaster is really good at joking." He smiled awkwardly.
This place... no matter how luxurious the decoration is and how considerate the service is, he doesn't want to come!
"I am serious."
Xu Fenglei patted his shoulder and said,
"Let's go inside."
The two walked through the long and narrow corridor and went down to another level.
Ta-ta, tap-ta.
The sound of footsteps came.
In the first cell at the entrance of the corridor, the condemned prisoner sat against the wall, his hair disheveled, looking slumped.
But when he heard a familiar voice, his eyes suddenly opened!
Wow!
Even the chain was dragged along!
He quickly held down the iron chain and lowered his head.
"Which room is it in?"
"The last room is quieter over there. It's quite noisy here on weekdays."
"Alas! You can be so cruel. The prince is the prince after all. How could he be like this?"
"..."
Three voices intertwined.
They walked forward and did not even notice that the death row prisoner here was looking directly at them.
To be precise, he was looking at one of the thin and tall figures.
"Xu...Feng Lei."
Hou Junji's throat surged. He had not spoken for so long that the sound he made was very vague, like a wild cat purring.
Xu Fenglei naturally didn't notice Hou Junji at this moment. His thoughts were all on Li Chengqian.
Wow!
The jailer quickly stepped forward and opened the cell door.
Xu Fenglei stepped into it and saw Li Chengqian half-slumped on the haystack, his eyes dull and dull.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince."
Changsun Wuji stepped forward quickly, saluted briefly, and said,
"Master, he's here!"
"If you have anything to say or any grievances you have, just say it and don't keep it in your heart, okay?"
"It's very... hard for us to feel like you and His Majesty are like this!"
Although they are nephews, Li Chengqian and Changsun Wuji are not very close.
Therefore, Changsun Wuji did not dare to entrust him to the throne. The prince was the crown prince and he was a minister, so he naturally showed the courtesy that a minister should have.
However, Li Chengqian ignored him and still stared blankly at the dark bluestone above.
Changsun Wuji smiled bitterly and was about to greet Xu Fenglei, but he saw Xu Fenglei walking up and kicking Li Chengqian's butt.
Snapped!
"Get out of here."
Xu Fenglei said calmly,
"What does it look like?"
Changsun Wuji: "..."
So casual?
However, Xu Fenglei just kicked him, and when Li Chengqian saw it was him, his eyes regained some sparkle!
He touched his butt and stood up quickly.
"Teacher...Master."
His tone was a bit timid and stuttering.
Changsun Wuji: "???"
Is the Grand Master so awesome? A kick or a curse, and His Highness the Crown Prince will behave like a child?
To be honest, he was really envious.
If the prince becomes emperor in the future, Xu Fenglei, the 'Prince and Grand Master', will definitely be promoted to 'Grand Master'!
Based on their relationship as master and disciple, how powerful will the Grand Master be in the future?
Just thinking about it makes people envious and jealous!
"what happened?"
Xu Fenglei doesn't talk much and speaks concisely and to the point.
"Please tell me clearly. If there is a misunderstanding, my teacher will naturally seek justice for you."
"If you did it on purpose, then I will beat you until your skin is bruised, and then I will go and suffer for your father."
"Say it."
Li Chengqian looked at Xu Fenglei, pursed his lips, and then looked at Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji stepped back a few steps knowingly, not to disturb the conversation between master and apprentice.
This retreat made him feel a little sad.
Obviously he is the prince's biological uncle, but the relationship between the two parties is not close at all.
On the contrary, Xu Fenglei, who was not related by blood, was regarded as his biological father by the prince...
But think about it.
The Lord of Heaven and Earth is his teacher, and his teacher is also his father, so there is nothing wrong with the prince seeing Xu Fenglei as his second father.
puff!
Li Chengqian suddenly burst into tears, stepped forward and hugged Xu Fenglei fiercely.
"Wow wow wow..."
"Master, my child... I just want to pray for my mother! My child really just wants to pray for my mother!"
"That arrow was not shot on purpose...wuwuwu...to hit my father on purpose..."
He cried loudly and told Xu Fenglei the whole story intermittently.
Xu Fenglei also hugged him and patted his back gently to show comfort.
"Okay, okay, I knew you were wronged. How could we, Cheng Qian, be so stupid..."
"Don't cry, don't cry...men don't shed tears lightly, be strong."
He whispered comforting words.
To Xu Fenglei, Li Chengqian was like his own flesh and blood.
He put too much emotion and effort into this child.
Naturally, I couldn't bear to see him cry so sadly...
Changsun Wuji, who was on the side, also understood at this moment.
"Then it's really a misunderstanding!"
He suddenly said,
"Think about it! How could His Highness do such an appalling thing?"
"But...is there any necessary connection between praying for mother and shooting wild geese?"
Changsun Wuji looked at Li Chengqian with a confused expression.
Li Chengqian stared at him, turned away, and buried himself in Xu Fenglei's arms again.
Only then did Changsun Wuji realize that he had made a mistake. He smiled awkwardly and remained silent.
"He had no other option."
Xu Fenglei nodded and said,
"If I can shoot the goose and achieve this promised victory, I will feel better."
"Many seemingly meaningless things are actually of great significance to the parties involved."
"Really, Cheng Qian?"
Li Chengqian said "Yes" and cried silently.
He held Xu Fenglei's waist tighter.
Master can still understand him.
"That's it..."
Changsun Wuji quickly followed suit and agreed with Li Chengqian.
"Okay, okay, Chengqian, you are no longer a child."
Xu Fenglei gently pushed Li Chengqian away and said softly,
"Don't cry, you are a man. Don't cry when something happens."
"Have you ever seen your father cry when something happened? Have you ever seen your master cry?"
"For a real man, it's okay to cry when you are deeply in love, but you must never cry because of weakness and grievance!"
"Understand?"
Li Chengqian wiped his eyes, sighed heavily, and indeed stopped crying.
But his eyes were still red and swollen, and his nose was still twitching.
Changsun Wuji smacked his tongue again!
This is so effective! Why can the Grand Master have such high prestige among the Prince?
Don't you cry if you don't want to cry? Just do whatever you say you want to do?
He had doubts at first, but he was cleared up in the next second.
Because he saw Xu Fenglei grabbing Li Chengqian's shoulders and walking out.
"Walk."
Xu Fenglei said coldly,
"Go and settle the score with your father!"
Before they finished speaking, the two of them had already broken out of the cell! Just ignore the jailer!
Changsun Wuji stood there for a moment, then quickly followed after a few seconds, already understanding in his heart.
The Taishi's determination to settle accounts with His Majesty and seek justice for the Prince is something that no one else can possess!
At least, he couldn't.
Therefore, I can’t even envy you...
