"Hmph, what do you know? If His Highness the Crown Prince wants to successfully succeed to the throne, he not only needs to defeat all the princes, but also has to face the oppression of the Sword Sect. The Sword Sect's nod is the most important thing. Now that the critical moment has been reached, how can His Highness the Crown Prince do that? Let these uncertain existences have a little surprise!"
"Yeah!" The two farmers behind nodded.
"Remember, pay attention to the abnormalities that occur in the imperial capital. This time, the prince does not want any accidents to happen. If it succeeds, we will be the heroes!"
"No!" The two people behind him saluted and left quickly.
Imperial Palace,
A middle-aged man who looked somewhat similar to the fourth prince slowly closed the door and looked at the two people waiting outside. "What you mean is that the fourth brother caused trouble on the street again. It took the imperial guards to arrest the young man." Take it?"
"Reporting to His Highness the Crown Prince, I saw with my own eyes that it was the Imperial Guards led by Captain Lu who captured him!"
"Captain Lu?" The prince frowned, "Send him here!"
Outside a mansion, a prison car stopped slowly. Several guards dragged Lu Chen in the prison car into the mansion. In the distance, two figures also flashed away.
"Are you looking for death? You really treat him as a prisoner!" As soon as he entered the mansion, the fourth prince's face was gloomy and he slapped him twice.
"Your Highness, aren't we doing this to be more realistic?" Several guards looked aggrieved.
"How dare you speak so harshly!" The fourth prince was about to slap his hand away, but was stopped by a hand.
"Forget it, there are a lot of people watching outside!" Lu Chen glanced outside the door. Along the way, there were many pairs of eyes staring at the prison car.
If you are not careful, your life will be on the line!
"Hmph, Brother Lu is being generous this time. Be careful next time!" After saying that, he took Lu Chen's hand and walked towards the depths of the mansion.
As he went deeper, Lu Chen discovered that the secret guard force was becoming more and more powerful, and he even noticed two powerful people in the Spirit King realm.
The Spirit King Realm is already the highest-end combat power in the Daluo Dynasty. I never thought that two of the most destitute princes would be hidden in the backyard of his mansion.
"Fourth Prince, are you really ready to rebel?" Lu Chen looked surprised.
The most ruthless emperor's family, the so-called father's love and brotherly love are sometimes like a piece of paper, which can be broken with a poke.
I, Lu Chen, would not be surprised if the figure in front of him really wanted to rebel against him. However, for the figure in front of him, it was just the first time that he had met. Rebellion was a serious crime of beheading, and no one dared to leak it out easily.
"Haha, Brother Lu is joking!" The fourth prince smiled, dismissed his entourage, and pulled Lu Chen into a pavilion. "Brother Lu, how much do you know about the royal family of the Daluo Dynasty?" The fourth prince stared at the young man in front of him.
Lu Chen shook his head, not to mention knowing the Da Luo royal family, even if it was his first time to visit the Da Luo Imperial Capital.
"My father is dying. According to the old man's wishes, I should inherit the throne. Unfortunately, many years ago, due to some things, there was a gap between my father and the Sword Sect. Since then, my father's physical condition has suddenly deteriorated. Everyone I know it in my heart, but there is nothing I can do. The old man can only dethrone me as crown prince and let me learn to disguise myself in order to save my life!"
A cold light flashed in the fourth prince's eyes, he looked at the mountains on the horizon and clenched his fists.
"Is Jian Zong already so powerful?" Lu Chen looked surprised, and became more and more afraid of Jian Zong. He had never underestimated Jian Zong, and now it seemed that Jian Zong was even more terrifying.
The news he heard was not like this. The Jianzong was indeed the top existence in the Daluo Dynasty, but that was in the field of monks. After all, the Daluo royal family was orthodox, had an army, and had more ways to obtain various resources than the Jianzong. easy.
In comparison, the royal family and the Jianzong were equally generous, and the Da Luo royal family would not tolerate the poisoning of the king of a country.
"Brother Lu doesn't know. If a war really breaks out, the Daluo royal family may not be afraid of the Jianzong. After all, the Daluo royal family can compete with the Jianzong with the power of the whole country, and most of the Jianzong are monks. However, the relationships within the dynasty are complicated. Our family is just trying to balance this relationship. In addition, the two principalities in the northwest are eyeing the war with the Jianzong. The two principalities will definitely be at war.
When the military suppresses the country, it is always the ordinary people who suffer! "
The fourth prince sighed, looking helpless.
"The Da Luo royal family is affiliated with the Tian Luo Empire. Is the empire just ignoring it?" Lu Chen frowned.
"Haha, Tianluo Empire?" The fourth prince sneered, "The two principalities also belong to the Tianluo Empire. They just want to occupy the Daluo Dynasty, so that they can go to a higher level and call themselves a dynasty. For these vassals of the same empire, Country, many empires turn a blind eye!"
Lu Chen nodded. After all, the army in the empire cannot truly grow without experiencing the baptism of blood.
The Tianluo Empire will not launch wars at will. The way to sharpen the combat power of its affiliated armies is to attack each other. In this way, they can consume each other and stabilize the rule of the Tianluo Empire.
Secondly, it also sharpened the armies of the subordinate countries. If there is a war between empires in the future, these armies will be under the unified control of the empire.
"Where is your ancestor?" Lu Chen thought over and over again before asking. He is the ancestor of the Daluo royal family. This is the heritage of the royal family. Even the fourth prince was a little surprised when Lu Chen asked so directly. This is a taboo.
The fourth prince smiled bitterly, "Brother Lu, are you too direct?" The fourth prince muttered in his heart, couldn't you be more tactful when asking about other people's background?
"The Fourth Prince has already said that we are in the same group. You have even told me about rebelling against the Nine Clans. If you keep hiding it and choking, won't you make the Fourth Prince a joke?"
Lu Chen smiled, and the words he spoke once again made the figure in front of him stunned.
"Brother Lu, can you speak so grandly when trying to find out other people's background?" The fourth prince rolled his eyes, and the young man in front of him made him unable to recover.
"My ancestor had some problems with his cultivation. He has not interfered with the affairs of the country for many years. At his age, cultivation may be his lifelong pursuit!"
Lu Chen nodded, and naturally understood what the fourth prince was referring to. The improvement of cultivation brought about an increase in longevity. If he wanted to survive, he could only try every means to improve his cultivation.
"In that case, I wish us a happy cooperation!" Lu Chen said with a smile.
The fourth prince smiled and brought the young man here to show him his preparations. After all, he was planning a coup involving the entire dynasty.
The current prince is not him. After the coup, he will be a thief of the country and will be infamy for the rest of his life. In the future, he will be sentenced to death under the iron pen.
"Brother Lu, don't you want to go in and have a look?"
The fourth prince looked at the young man in front of him and smiled. He was indeed different from ordinary people. Hearing that he had rebelled, there was not even a trace of fluctuation. At the moment, the other prince did not seem to care about his background.
"No need, that's the fourth prince's heritage, not that of me. It's just that you have to have a good reputation. The fourth prince has to think carefully and try to leave a good reputation!" Lu Chen warned.
"Haha, I have indeed seen the right person. Brother Lu, don't worry. If this happens, the Lu family in the isolated city will have a place for the Lu family in the capital of the Great Luo Empire as long as I reign for one day!"
"Well, thank you to the fourth prince!" Lu Chen still looked calm, as if the promise made by the fourth prince was normal.
"Brother Lu, are you dissatisfied with my arrangements?" The fourth prince's expression condensed.
The young man in front of him was so calm that he couldn't see any emotion. He was like a piece of eternal ice, so calm that his heart trembled. Such a person was too scary.
Such people are either scheming or too confident.
"Your Highness, the Lu family from the isolated city has moved to the capital of the Great Luo Empire. Hasn't the Lu family become a concern for me?" Lu Chen smiled.
When the fourth prince heard this, his expression suddenly changed, "Brother Lu, that's not what I meant. I can make an oath..." The fourth prince looked anxious and was about to make an oath on the spot, but was stopped by Lu Chen.
"Fourth Prince, cooperation is naturally a good thing. After all, we have a common enemy. As for the relocation, it is left to the tribe to make their own choices. I just want to tell the Fourth Prince that cooperation is cooperation, don't cross the line!"
Lu Chen chuckled, took a sip of tea from the stone table in the pavilion, and stared at the distance. For a moment, the four emperors
Zi felt that his entire body was no longer his own, as if everything around him had stopped.
It was only a moment, but it made his back wet. Looking at the back of the young man who gradually disappeared in the backyard, there was only deep fear in his eyes.
"What's going on?" the fourth prince said suddenly, but there was no one around.
Not long after, two figures appeared and stood quietly in front of the fourth prince. "It was very powerful. For a moment, I couldn't see him. It was like he disappeared out of thin air. It was at that moment that I had a feeling. The illusion of being seen through, I don’t know where it comes from!”
"You actually have the same illusion as me!" Another figure exclaimed.
The three of them looked at each other and looked at the disappeared figure, with even more fear in their eyes.
"What level of cultivation do you think he has reached?" The fourth prince frowned.
"I don't know, it's unfathomable. According to my guess, if he had taken action just now, not to mention saving His Royal Highness, everyone in the entire courtyard would have died!"
Hearing this, the fourth prince couldn't help but gasped, "Is he so strong?"
The other person also nodded.
"So, this prince has found a treasure!" The solemnity on the fourth prince's face disappeared, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Fourth Prince, people like this are uncontrollable. If they rebel, everyone will die!" one of them warned.
In response, the fourth prince just waved his hands and looked in the direction where the figure disappeared, "It doesn't matter. Since I know that I won't be able to reach his level in the future, why not take care of the relationship now? It's better to provide help in times of need than to add icing on the cake!"
"But..." Another person was about to speak to dissuade him, but the fourth prince raised his hand to stop him, "Send the order and withdraw all the hidden stakes monitoring the Lu family in the isolated city. If the Lu family is in trouble, we will help at all costs!"
