Unfortunately, no one dared to help him.
Lin Chengzhi was extremely frightened and yelled at the officials and guards around him.
"A dog that eats royal food but doesn't do royal business!"
"If I raise a dog, I will be more sincere than you!"
"Stop him quickly!"
"ah!"
Lin Chengzhi suddenly screamed in pain, and it was Lin Feng who grabbed his hair and lifted him up.
The cold sword blade touched his neck.
The stimulating touch stirs up goosebumps.
Lin Chengzhi wanted to struggle, but he was trembling all over and refused to obey his orders: "Master Lin Immortal, I am your uncle. As long as you don't kill me, I will give you glory and wealth!"
Lin Feng's face was stern: "Worldly wealth is like dung to me. Only your life can relieve the depression in my heart. Okay, you can go die."
"No!!"
Lin Chengzhi screamed and wanted to struggle.
But Lin Feng moved too quickly, as if killing a chicken, and directly wiped the sword on Lin Chengzhi's neck.
He was thrown to the ground, left to struggle in pain, and bled to death.
Blood spurted out from the wounds on his mouth, nose, and neck.
Lin Chengzhi was panting heavily, kicking his legs and looking up at the sky.
"how come..."
"I...I am your...uncle..."
Lin Chengzhi took his last breath, and the memories in his mind were fixed on the prosperous scene when he ascended the throne.
"I am not willing to..."
"Unwilling..."
Lin Chengzhi is dead, and he will never die in peace.
Lin Ya was stunned, the complicated emotions in her heart outweighed the fear of the dead.
"Brother Royal!"
Lin Hongyuan threw himself on Lin Chengzhi and hugged his body, feeling sad and angry.
"Uncle and nephew kill each other, and the family is unlucky!"
"I--"
"I won't live either!"
He shouted and rushed towards Lin Feng's sword.
It's normal for Lin Hongyuan to have such feelings. After all, just because Lin Feng doesn't have feelings for Lin Chengzhi doesn't mean that he doesn't have feelings for Lin Chengzhi.
He and Lin Chengzhi had the same mother and they grew up together.
Now that my brother was killed by his own son, how could I not feel sad and angry?
Especially in Lin Hongyuan's deep-rooted concept, the emperor's order is the truth. If Lin Ya goes to get married, he will be heartbroken, but he will not oppose Lin Chengzhi.
Seeing that he was about to commit suicide, Wu Min quickly stopped him.
When the officials around him saw this, a group of people looked at each other and stepped forward to comfort him.
Lin Hongyuan burst into tears and was so sad that he couldn't help himself.
Suddenly, a yellow robe appeared on his body.
"Gah?"
Lin Hongyuan was stunned, looking at Su Degui who put on a yellow robe on his face with surprise on his face.
Su Degui knelt down very seriously: "Emperor Cheng is dead. The country cannot be left without a master for a day. Among the many princes, no one can take on the important responsibilities of the country. Only you are the one whom everyone hopes for!"
Lin Feng was dumbfounded on the side.
At this time, Su Degui quietly winked at him.
You wink at me.
Lin Feng was about to speak, but was interrupted by Lin Hongyuan: "Nonsense! The emperor's body is still cold, and you want me to become emperor?"
Su Degui nodded honestly, with a sincere expression: "You have both political integrity and talent, and a noble character, which makes people feel like a spring breeze. If you don't claim to be emperor, I will have trouble sleeping and eating."
"Oh, that's enough!"
The sudden appearance of a yellow robe completely disrupted Lin Hongyuan's thoughts.
He didn't want to be the emperor, firstly, he didn't have this ambition since he was young; secondly, Lin Chengzhi had just returned to the West, and he had no shame in it.
Before returning to the palace, Lin Hongyuan looked at Lin Feng quietly.
The joy of reunion, the anger of being beaten, the sadness of killing each other, complex emotions were mixed together at this moment.
After a long time, he said with red eyes.
"You go away, I will pretend...that I never gave birth to you."
-
Lin Feng rented a small courtyard outside the palace and temporarily lived with Lin Ya.
Wu Min and Lin Hongyuan are in charge of the overall situation in the palace and are said to support the crown prince's ascension to the throne.
Since that day, Lin Feng and Lin Hongyuan have never said a word or seen each other again.
The fact that things developed like this was indeed beyond his expectation.
But he has no regrets.
Letting Lin Ya go to Yanwu Kingdom as a marriage tool was the most unacceptable thing for him.
To Lin Feng's relief, his sister was very obedient, just like a little cotton-padded jacket.
While living outside the palace, Lin Ya became very close to Lin Feng in every possible way. She would squeeze her shoulders, beat her legs, go shopping with him, and even give him a portrait.
Lin Ya also said that if her parents don't recognize Lin Feng, she won't recognize her parents either, and she will live with Lin Feng from now on.
What surprised Lin Feng most was that Lin Ya's current painting skills were simply incredible.
She drew a portrait for Lin Feng, and he in the painting seemed to come to life and jump out of the paper. Lin Feng was surprised, not expecting Lin Ya to be so masterful.
Sometimes when he looked at the paintings that Lin Ya drew for him, he could always feel a sense of familiarity.
That evening, he stood in the room again, staring at the painting.
In the painting, he is wearing the moon-white gown given by Yu Youxun and holding the sword of Jian Huashang. His facial features are lifelike and his expression is harmless and warm.
He is almost cut out of the same mold as him.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open.
Lin Ya ran in with a roar and hugged Lin Feng's arm: "Brother, the street is so lively. Please take me to play."
"What fun can there be on the street?"
"Go and take a look. Come on, come on, stop looking at the painting and come with me."
Lin Ya grabbed Lin Feng's arm and walked out.
Lin Feng held the painting without moving at all.
"Xiaoya, I always feel that this painting looks familiar. Have you painted it before?"
"The person in the painting is you, how could you not look familiar!" Lin Ya laughed, grabbed the painting and threw it on the table: "Let's go, I will draw two more for you in the future."
Lin Feng stopped being suspicious and followed her out of the courtyard.
When I walked out of the yard, I realized that the streets today were indeed busier than before.
People gathered together, merchants gathered, and officials and carriages came in an endless stream.
Lin Ya was curious and asked Lin Feng: "Brother, did something happen in the imperial city?"
Lin Feng shook his head. He was about to say he didn't know, but suddenly he saw a group of officers and soldiers posting a royal list at the street corner. He immediately changed his mind: "Go over there and have a look."
When the two walked in and took a look, they understood immediately.
[The new emperor ascends the throne]
It turns out that today is the day when the new emperor ascends the throne. No wonder the streets are so lively.
Lin Ya read the imperial list and stuck out her tongue: "I thought dad was going to be the emperor, but it turns out he is the prince. Brother, tell me what dad thinks. He won't even sit on the throne if given to him."
"Everyone has his own ambitions."
Lin Feng was not surprised that Lin Hongyuan did not become emperor.
Just seeing the incident of ascending the throne, he unconsciously thought of the third prince of Yanwu Kingdom.
The wedding reception team was all killed, and Qin Ce was nowhere to be seen.
Today is November 18th, and Yanwu Kingdom has not held any charges.
This shows that Qin Ce neither returned to Yanwu Kingdom nor came to the imperial capital of Xihua Kingdom.
"It's already the 18th..."
Lin Feng suddenly realized that he had been delayed in Xihua Kingdom for so long without paying attention.
It was time to go to Chaoxia Valley, but before leaving, Lin Ya was a little worried.
What if after he leaves, Lin Hongyuan asks Lin Ya to get married again?
