Chapter Five Hundred and Ninety-Seven Extremely Pleasure Begets Sadness!
At this moment, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is celebrating happily in the palace.
It has been several days since the second prince died, and the murderer has not been caught until now. In fact, not only has he not been caught, there is no whereabouts at all, and not even the most basic clues have been provided.
But, whether he was caught or not, whether there were clues or not, it didn’t matter to the prince!
The only important thing is that the second prince is dead, so dead that he cannot be dead anymore!
In other words, his biggest rival for the throne is gone!
And because that opponent's reputation is already so bad, who can compete with the prince's wisdom and martial prowess in disguise?!
From now on, you can really sit back and relax!
How can the prince be unhappy?
As for my brother’s death…
Humph, who still recognizes him as my brother? Just that guy with a national reputation?!
"Since ancient times, there have been no relatives in the Heavenly Family!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince praised this sentence very much: "What kind of biological brother, bullshit! He died well! He died wonderfully! He died like a croak! He really died at the right time!"
That night, His Royal Highness held a secret banquet in his residence.
Although he didn't admit in his heart that he was his younger brother, in fact, no one could deny it! Including the prince himself.
If your younger brother is dead and you still hold a big banquet... then if others find out, it will be a big mistake, not a big mistake!
Therefore, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very happy in his heart, on the surface, he does not dare to celebrate blatantly and has to look sad. But in private, it is better to gather some die-hards, have a few drinks, and be happy.
It's harmless.
At this moment, he was toasting with a smile on his face: "Mr. Guan, it seems that our last step is no longer needed."
Guan Zhengwen also had a bit of a smile on his fair face.
General Ye, who was most afraid, did not find himself; now that all the powerful enemies were gone, even the last step was spared, and he was just waiting for the death of His Majesty the Emperor, who was seriously ill, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to ascend the throne; he, the most solid, loyal and
The ministers of Conglong who share a secret with His Highness the Crown Prince will not be treated badly, right?
Prosperity and wealth are just around the corner, so how can you not be happy?
"When I come to rule the world, I will never forget that you all are together today." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince used the last words with a smile on his face to end the drinking party that lasted until midnight.
Guan Zhengwen walked leisurely, his clothes were fluttering, and as he walked on the road, he felt that his body was in a state of elation, and he was so selfless.
The anesthesia of alcohol put his nerves in an extremely excited state, but what excited him the most was the promise of His Highness the Crown Prince.
"Guan Qing's hard work and merit are outstanding, and he is above all others. I will never forget him. When he aspires to be the king of the court, Guan Qing will be able to take charge of his own affairs!"
These words were spoken by His Royal Highness to Guan Zhengwen in private.
However, whenever he thinks of these words, Old Master Guan becomes excited.
one side?
Stand alone?
I definitely couldn't hope for an official position with the old emperor.
But...as the saying goes, once an emperor, once a courtier! I finally caught up with His Highness the Prince's train.
Previously, three princes competed for the throne. Among them, the crown prince and the second prince were the strongest and most powerful, and they were at loggerheads with each other. However, the third prince was nothing more than a sidekick.
Now that the Second Prince's side has completely collapsed, he has even lost his life, and his reputation has become notorious in the streets. The Third Prince's power is weak, how can he resist the rising Crown Prince?
It is a certainty that the throne belongs to His Highness the Crown Prince.
In this case, wouldn't my own fate and future, and the fate and future of my whole family, be... certain?
His son...grandson...
As the saying goes, when one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. This sentence is equally suitable when used to describe officialdom.
And as long as the following three generations can gain a foothold in the court, then your family will basically be a new official family.
Once a family is formed, as long as nothing major happens, it can basically stand firm from then on.
Children and grandchildren will benefit from it.
It lasts forever and can be expected for hundreds of generations!
With his achievements in cultivation, it is definitely not a problem to persist for another fifty or sixty years. With a mainstay like himself and the Dinghai Shenzhen, even if the Guan family does not want to prosper or stand still, it will not work!
As soon as he thinks of the infinite glory in the future, Guan Zhengwen feels a wonderful feeling in his heart.
Even the dim night and hazy night fog at this moment actually felt extraordinarily lovely.
In the sky, the moonlight shines palely. Although the moon is in the sky, the brilliance of the moonlight is almost invisible.
The fog is really too thick.
Guan Zhengwen's interest at this time has not diminished. He turned through the alley in front of him as if he were taking a leisurely stroll. As long as he turned another corner, he would reach home, that warm place.
Guan Zhengwen's fair face showed a warm smile subconsciously. This good news must be shared with his family as soon as possible. Over the years, he has secretly done a lot of bad things for His Royal Highness, but it was all worth it.
Even if you have a guilty conscience, as long as your family has a stable future, you will not regret it!
Guan Zhengwen turned into the next alley with increasingly brisk steps.
However, the moment he turned into the alleyway, his body stiffened suddenly.
The eyes almost bulged out of their sockets, almost bursting out of their sockets.
In the narrow alley, in the thick night fog, a person stood in front of him, quietly waiting for his arrival.
"You're here, you're coming so slowly." The man's clear voice sent ripples through the night fog.
When Guan Zhengwen saw this, the hairs all over his body stood up.
This person was clearly standing here, so why didn't he notice any signs of his existence? He didn't know the other person's existence until he caught a glimpse of him. Also, even though it was just a glimpse just now, he had already seen that person's victorious appearance.
Dressed in snow white, with a long body, his back is facing to him. However, the distance between the two parties is already so close. With his own cultivation, even if the other party's back is turned to him, how can he not be able to sense the other party's true appearance? Since he cannot sense the other party
Doesn't it mean that...
"May I ask who you are? Are you here specifically to wait for someone to be imprisoned?" When Guan Zhengwen was speaking, he had fully mobilized all the spiritual power in his body. He had already realized that this time, he might be
It was the most dangerous battle in my life.
Perhaps, as long as one carelessness or carelessness is needed, the soul will disappear and die!
Although the man in white did not reveal the slightest trace of murderous intent.
But the fact that he is waiting here at this time is enough to explain too many problems.
As he spoke, the man slowly turned his body sideways, letting the dim moonlight shine on half of his face, intentionally or unintentionally.
Guan Zhengwen's pupils shrank immediately, then bulged violently, almost popping his eyes out, and he said in a voiceless voice: "Ye Xiao!?"
The person opposite has a tall figure, handsome face, elegant demeanor, deep eyes, and a faint smile lingering on his lips.
This person is none other than the general’s son, Ye Xiao!
