Yuan Pengkun and others were naturally extremely nervous.
The prince also smiled, and even hugged a few people and said, "I want to thank you..."
After a few casual greetings, the prince said again: "Wait a moment, you can go to the prince's mansion. You have helped my people, so I won't let you work in vain. I will let someone arrange the gifts!"
"Thank you, Your Highness, Prince!" Feng Boshe and Yuan Pengkun were each more excited and nervous than the other.
After saying that, the prince turned around and left.
Chen Fan also smiled and nodded at the escorts, and then got on the chariot.
Chihu pulled the chariot and walked on the wide road, and soon disappeared from everyone's eyes.
Wait until the prince's chariot has driven away.
Mr. Lu's whole face turned red, he slowly exhaled, and looked at the group of escorts in front of him with a strange expression, "You actually know the prince?!"
Grandmaster Yuan also had a strange expression and smiled bitterly: "We have only dealt with the prince's friends... we can't say we know each other."
Mr. Lu's expression changed slightly, then shook his head, but said in a gentle voice:
"You said that my steward tricked you, what happened? If it is true, I will definitely give you an explanation!"
Grandmaster Yuan was stunned when he heard Master Lu's words, but then he looked ecstatic.
As long as Mr. Lu lets go, everything will be settled easily.
And his expression also became a little strange. The change in Mr. Lu's attitude was just a few words from the prince...
…
For the prince, being gentle and polite would not cause any harm to him, appear approachable, and gain Chen Fan's face, which would naturally be a win-win for him.
And it has to be said that even though he knew that the prince was deliberately selling his face, Chen Fan still felt very useful!
It is quite rare for a country's crown prince, the prince of a martial arts dynasty, to do this.
And after a day of traveling.
Chen Fan also followed the prince back to the prince's residence.
The Prince's Mansion is magnificent, extremely luxurious, and covers a huge area. It covers an area larger than the martial arts academy where thousands of disciples in Qinghe County live together!
Comparable to an ordinary small town!
"This Prince's Mansion was my father's former residence. After my father ascended the throne, he moved into the palace. Each brother was assigned a new residence, so this Prince's Mansion was given to me. Unfortunately, I don't have the grace of my father.
, it can’t attract many talents to join, and most of the Prince’s Mansion is very deserted at this time!”
Of course, this is the prince's humility.
Wen Siyuan alone is more important than a hundred geniuses!
"I have ordered someone to arrange a separate courtyard for you, Chen Fan. Chen Fan, you can stay in my prince's residence while you complete the mission of Xiuyi Building!"
Afterwards, Cheng Caiying resigned and continued to heal her injuries.
The prince even withdrew and invited Chen Fan into the study room alone, where they talked in secret.
In the luxurious and comfortable study room, Chen Fan and the prince sat opposite each other, with a teacup in front of each of them.
"Chen Fan, are you wondering why I value you so much?"
The prince looked at Chen Fan with a smile and went straight in.
Chen Fan shook his head: "I don't know..."
But I had already made some guesses in my mind.
It should be related to the gift of Yuan Shou!
Chen Fan had long heard Cheng Caiying say that all the princes were recruiting geniuses, not just the prince.
Today I heard the seventh prince mention several times about the Yuan Shou ceremony in three years' time, and he might have a battle with Wu Tianjiao!
The prince sighed slightly, nodded and said:
"If I say that I only do it because I cherish my talents, I will not only lie to you, but also to myself."
Chen Fan was startled and his expression was a little strange.
I have to say that what the prince said was very sincere.
If he really said that he cherishes and loves talents, Chen Fan would never believe it.
The prince eloquently said:
"My father ascended the throne, and his cultivation level has also improved rapidly. He has already broken through the tenth level with the help of Tianzi Qi. In the future, he will have the opportunity to break through to a higher level and live a long life. But I... may not be able to live that long..."
"Now I am the prince, but a hundred years from now, who can survive until then is the key! No matter how fierce the competition is now, it is useless. The only way is to improve your cultivation, be promoted to the tenth level, and ensure that you will survive until my father abdicates.
The essential!"
When Chen Fan heard this, countless strange thoughts emerged in his heart.
In the martial arts dynasty, the emperor's practice will be helped by the luck of the country, so unless the talent is too poor, it is extremely easy for the emperor to break through the tenth level.
But in this case, it was the prince who suffered.
It will take a few princes to die before the throne of the dynasty can change...
The previous emperor was extremely domineering and had unparalleled cultivation, but he died early. For the current emperor, in a sense, it is a great good thing...
He suppressed his weird thoughts and said quickly: "The prince has been blessed by the national destiny. He will break through the tenth level in the future and live forever."
Of course, this is just Chen Fan deliberately saying nice things.
Even the Emperor Daqian may not be able to be promoted to immortality, let alone the crown prince.
I'm afraid breaking through the tenth level will be a big hurdle!
The royal practice of true skills relies on the Qi of the Son of Heaven to practice, which has great advantages, but due to talent limitations, it may not necessarily mean that one is better than other geniuses.
The prince shook his head and said:
"There are two keys to the martial arts practice of our royal family. One is one's own talent, and the other is the Emperor's Qi! I can't change my own talent, so the only thing I can do is compete for as much Emperor's Qi as possible!"
Chen Fan was also stunned when he heard this.
Could it be that the ceremony of Yuan Shou is also a special ceremony for the royal disciples to compete for the emperor's power?
The prince narrowed his eyes:
"As the prince, I do have slightly more emperor's energy than your brothers and sisters, but my talent is not the highest among the brothers. I may not be able to compete with anyone in the future... Even if I can break through the tenth level in the future, I will live to
Hundreds of years later, it will still be difficult to ascend to the throne of God!"
Chen Fan frowned: "I wonder how to obtain the Emperor's Qi?"
The prince nodded:
"First of all, the way to gain more blessings from the Emperor's Qi is through prestige. How to improve prestige? In a martial arts dynasty like ours, naturally the strength is stronger. The stronger the subordinates you recruit, the more reliance and recognition you get.
The more Emperor Qi you will harvest!"
Chen Fan was also stunned when he heard this, and then nodded!
"The world is huge and there are many masters. Chen Fan, you should know the relationship between the Zhao family and me, right?"
Chen Fan also nodded.
The prince is the son of the current Queen Zhao, and he is also half of the Zhao family!
"When the late emperor was alive, there were many restrictions on the Zhao family... Since my father ascended the throne and the Zhao family became more powerful, the emperor's grandmother is from the Zhao family, and my mother is also from the Zhao family. Only for me, the crown prince, to have the status and strength I have now, all of which are necessary
Rely on the Zhao family!"
"People like Teacher Wen would succumb to my crown prince's residence precisely because of the Zhao family!"
Chen Fan was also startled when he heard this: "Senior Wen, is he also from the Zhao family?"
The prince nodded: "Teacher Wen is so powerful that I can't give him orders. Not to mention me, my father, the queen, and the queen may not be able to give him direct orders. Only grandma Huang..."
When it comes to the royal grandmother, the prince's expression is also a little subtle. It is obvious that this person is not a simple person.
As he spoke, he shook his head.
"As the crown prince, I am also half of the Zhao family. Although I receive a lot of preferential treatment, I am also tabooed by other families because of the Zhao family's support for me..."
The Zhao family is so dominant that many people even call the Queen Mother Zhao the Demon Queen. In such a martial arts dynasty, even those who are loyal to the royal family may not be loyal to the Queen Mother Zhao!
"Although the emperor is dead, there are many die-hard ministers, and there are also many who look down on the Zhao family. It would be fine if they were neutral, but some families instead support and support other princes. I can get the emperor
The blessing of Qi will inevitably become less..."
