Han Feng stepped forward with his broad body and once again stood in front of Zhu Hongyi, facing the pressure from the prince and others.
"gentlemen!"
Zhu Hongyi was worried and stepped forward to protect Han Feng.
However, Han Feng put a hand on his shoulder, making him stand still.
At the same time, a voice came into Zhu Hongyi's ears.
"Your Highness, from now on, you must have the courage to fear no one in the world. But you must also remember that you can always stand behind me!"
When Zhu Hongyi heard this, he was shocked. He looked at Han Feng's back and was in a daze.
In the long years to come, he will often recall Han Feng's words today and be deeply moved!
At this moment, looking at Han Feng who took the initiative to walk in front of him, a cold smile finally appeared on the prince's face.
Immediately, his chin raised slightly, as if waiting for Han Feng to bow his head and salute him.
Unexpectedly, Han Feng, who walked up to him at this moment, had a stern look on his face and stood with his hands behind his back.
"Your Highness, you may salute me now!"
The words came out, making the prince and others on the opposite side stunned.
Immediately, the prince's expression changed, and Shangguan Yang and Feng Muyun on the side yelled at the same time.
"Han Feng, you are so presumptuous!"
The prince also said in a gloomy tone: "Han Feng, this is at the foot of the imperial city, how dare you be so indifferent and offend me!
Where do you place the law of the land? Where would you place your father Long Wei? Do you want to rebel? "
The prince's cold voice echoed through the east gate of the palace, placing the "big hat" of unpardonable sin directly on Han Feng's head.
On the side of Shangguan Yang, the chain of laws loomed on his body, and he was already trying to catch Han Feng, a madman with no superiority.
The eighth prince was also extremely worried and held Han Feng's sleeve tightly.
The atmosphere just below the tower was tense, reaching a point of tense situation.
Han Feng, who was standing with his hands behind his hands, frowned and shouted softly: "Your Highness, when you see me, why don't you show me the courtesy of teacher and student first?"
"What!"
"Young master?"
The prince and others were all stunned.
Han Feng stretched out a hand lightly, and with a flash of inspiration, a scroll made of "golden brocade" appeared in his hand.
"Imperial decree!?"
Everyone shrank their eyes and recognized at a glance that this was an imperial edict.
Han Feng looked at the prince with a playful smile.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry. Your Majesty has just made me a young master. Although it is a false title, I can now be regarded as the teacher of the prince, princes and princesses."
"This...how is this possible?"
The prince had a look of disbelief on his face, thinking this was too much of a coincidence.
Han Feng, on the other hand, directly wrapped the imperial edict with energy, floated to the opponent and unfolded it, almost striking the prince in front of him.
"Your Highness, please read carefully. This is an imperial edict issued by His Majesty himself. The ink is still wet!"
Looking at the imperial edict unfolding in front of him, the prince's expression became stiff at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Han Feng looked at Feng Muyun, the Minister of Rites, with a smile.
Mr. Feng, you are the Minister of Rites and are familiar with the imperial etiquette. According to the etiquette, what should the prince do when he meets the young master?
"Uh, this..."
At this moment, Feng Muyun's old face trembled slightly, and he hesitated before speaking.
"Our Qianlan Empire values respecting teachers. According to etiquette, even if the prince sees the young master, he should bow three times as a student, and then the young master should pay homage to the prince."
With one sentence, the prince's face became extremely gloomy and his expression became completely frozen.
But Han Feng casually took back the imperial edict, raised his head, and sneered: "Your Highness, you are so disrespectful!"
Seeing the mocking look in Han Feng's eyes, the prince's face turned frighteningly gloomy.
"Han Feng...so what if I don't worship you?"
Han Feng heard this and said with a smile: "Your Highness, this is the etiquette of the empire. This is under the imperial city. Do you want to openly violate the etiquette established by your ancestors?
Where does this move place national law? Where to place His Majesty Long Wei? Your Highness...you don't want to rebel, do you? "
Han Feng returned the three questions to the prince intact.
At this moment, the prince felt his face burning, as if he had been slapped three times.
For a time, all the pressure was on His Royal Highness.
The prince clenched his fists quietly, feeling a little regretful in his heart.
If he didn't want Han Feng to bow his head to his face today, he wouldn't be able to get off the stage if he didn't mention the salute.
Although he felt unwilling to do so, he knew that if he openly violated the ancestral etiquette in the imperial city, he would definitely be criticized and it would be like shooting himself in the foot.
After careful consideration, the prince finally suppressed the anger and shame in his chest, clasped his hands into fists and gritted his teeth.
"I... salute the young master!"
With that said, the prince was about to bow and salute. Unexpectedly, as soon as he bent down, Han Feng raised his hand to stop him.
"Your Highness, there is no need to salute, I am still injured on my waist.
If you salute and I don't return the salute, it won't make sense, so let's just call it even. "
The prince was stunned for a moment when he heard this, while Han Feng took the eighth prince directly out of the palace gate and walked away.
After a long time, the prince finally woke up and looked at the direction where Han Feng's back disappeared, his face distorted.
"Han Feng!"
The other people's faces didn't look very good either.
Among the crowd, only Deng Ai had an expressionless face, but there was a trace of surprise and uncertainty in his eyes.
Recalling Han Feng's calmness and composure when he faced Shangguan Yang's pressure just now, Deng Ai murmured in his heart.
"Why is this kid so different from half a year ago? Even I can't understand his cultivation. How did he do it?
But in just half a year, no matter how talented he is, how much improvement can he make? "
…
At the same time, Emperor Wu in Huangji Hall looked in the direction of the east gate of the palace.
He said to himself: "This kid Han Feng is really a troublemaker, but he is also a smart man and he knows how to advance and retreat.
However, the prince is still too young and has an impetuous temper. It would not be a bad thing to let a boy like Han Feng temper his temper. "
After that, Emperor Wu seemed to have thought of something again, and said to himself in surprise: "I can't tell that this kid Hongyi has such a strong and brave side."
…
At noon, Han Feng returned to the Bachelor's Mansion with the Eighth Prince. As for the Earl's Mansion, which was rewarded by Emperor Wu, it was still under construction.
Recalling today's confrontation with the prince and others under the imperial city, Han Feng's eyes were slightly chilled.
Today, he finally let the prince go. It was not that he wanted to let him go, but that he was lecturing his son under the nose of his father. Han Feng felt that he was somewhat disrespectful to Emperor Wu.
Thinking back again, the two True Yang realm powerhouses I saw today were Shangguan Yang and Deng Ai.
Han Feng could sense that Shangguan Yang's aura was similar to Shangguan Rui, the supreme elder of the Shangguan family. Both of them should be in the early stages of the True Yang realm.
However, Han Feng was unable to clearly sense Deng Ai's aura. The other party seemed to be more complicated than he imagined.
But now that the empire is in a special period, even Emperor Wu has come forward to mediate, so Han Feng can only avoid confronting them head-on for the time being.
However, Han Feng knew that when the situation in the empire stabilized, he, the prince, the Shangguan family and the Feng family would not be able to give up.
He recalled the conversation Emperor Wu had with him today and the warning he gave him.
Han Feng thought for a long time and made a decision.
Han Feng has never been a passive person, especially when fighting with others.
Since it was unavoidable, he had to take precautions and not only win, but win completely!
After calming down all his thoughts, Han Feng looked at the Eighth Prince who returned to the Bachelor's Mansion with him.
His eyes softened and he said: "Your Highness, your energy and blood are much stronger now. It seems that you have practiced a lot since I left the imperial capital."
The Eighth Prince nodded sheepishly and said: "Sir, you said that I should not be discouraged and be a brave person.
I couldn't absorb spiritual energy to practice, so I asked my aunt to ask someone to teach me the horizontal training method to improve my physical strength and become stronger in the future. "
Han Feng nodded appreciatively and said, "Yes, as long as you have the will to become stronger. You performed very well in front of the prince today."
Hearing Han Feng's praise, the eighth prince rubbed his hands and lowered his head, a little shy but also a little happy to have received his husband's approval.
However, Han Feng suddenly said something else abruptly.
"Your Highness, you are actually much better than the prince!"
This sentence made the Eighth Prince stunned for a moment, but then he shook his head hurriedly.
"No, no... Sir, the prince is much stronger than me. He is already a moon-level spiritual warrior. In front of him, I am nothing at all."
When Han Feng heard this, he smiled meaningfully, did not continue the topic, and turned to talk.
"Your Highness, when I left the imperial capital this time, I obtained a secret technique that can unblock the muscles and bones, stimulate the power of qi and blood, and help improve your physical body. Do you want to learn it?"
The Eighth Prince was overjoyed when he heard that it could improve his physical strength.
"Really, sir?"
Han Feng smiled mysteriously.
"Sit down cross-legged. I will first open up a few acupuncture points on your body and slowly guide you to practice. In addition, this secret method must not be known to outsiders."
"Well, sir, I won't tell anyone else!"
