Chapter 164: Don't bow your head, the crown will fall
When Xiao Changfeng's voice sounded, the entire imperial study room fell silent.
Even Emperor Wu didn't expect Xiao Changfeng's reaction to be so strong.
Even though he was easy to talk, he still chose to be so tough.
If this is a case of teenage madness, then so be it.
But he didn't see even the slightest bit of frivolity in Xiao Changfeng.
Like Eunuch Hong, he saw Xiao Changfeng's character like a stream of clear water.
Such people will not act recklessly or impulsively.
But such people also recognize a principle and will never look back.
This gave Emperor Wu a headache.
"I won't tell you more about the power behind the queen. It's right in front of you. With your thin body, how can you resist it?"
Emperor Wu decided to give some comfort.
"In the court, the influence of Duke Wei and the Empress spread throughout all departments and ministries. They are so deep-rooted that even I cannot eliminate them. It is very difficult."
"In the palace, the queen covered the sky with one hand, so she said that this time, even if I order to suppress it, Concubine Wen and Concubine Xia will still go to the queen." xdw8
"Furthermore, the boss is now practicing with his ancestors and has reached the level of Earth Martial Arts. Even if your talents are restored, your resources and teachings are still far behind. Can you really defeat him in one year's time?
?”
Emperor Wu seemed a little angry. He put his palms on the armrests of the chair and exerted slight pressure, causing blue veins to appear.
After a while, he suppressed his anger and spoke continuously, hoping to make Xiao Changfeng realize the reality.
The queen's power is too great.
It was so big that even Emperor Wu was deeply afraid of it.
In today's Dawu Dynasty, although he is still the emperor, there are some things that he cannot control himself.
So he hoped that Xiao Changfeng could understand his painstaking efforts.
Understand the power of the Queen.
Then he did as he said, hibernating, accumulating strength, and waiting for the day when the dragon soared for nine days.
Unfortunately, this was all his idea.
But his thoughts were not Xiao Changfeng's thoughts.
"Father, do you think you don't think so highly of me?"
Xiao Changfeng's eyes widened and he looked at Emperor Wu.
"It's not that I'm not optimistic about you. On the contrary, among my princes, you are the one I'm most optimistic about. It's precisely because of this that I don't want you to die young."
Emperor Wu shook his head, his eyes serious.
"There are hundreds of millions of people in the world. Although there is only one genius in a million, there are still some. But talent is just talent. This is a world where the strong are respected. Without power, no matter how talented or ambitious you are, you will not be able to achieve anything."
It’s just a flower in the mirror and a moon in the water.”
Emperor Wu sighed, as if something was involved, a glint flashed in his eyes.
"Father, there is something I must tell you in advance."
Xiao Changfeng suddenly spoke.
"What's up?"
Emperor Wu raised his eyebrows slightly.
"I... am not a person who is easy to control."
Xiao Changfeng grinned, his eyes like swords.
Returning this time, Xiao Changfeng never thought about dormant or accumulating strength.
Although he knew that both Mr. Lu and his father were doing it for his own good.
However, the road to immortality is to go against the will of heaven.
If even humans dare not disobey, let alone God.
In his eyes, the mere Dawu Dynasty was nothing more than a tiny place.
In his previous life, as the Immortal Emperor of the Immortal Realm, he led thousands of immortals, controlled hundreds of millions of stars, and countless worlds.
A secular country like the Dawu Dynasty was as dust in his eyes.
Let alone a mere queen.
Even if there is a god behind the queen, to him, she is nothing more than an ant.
As for the forces in the court and the power in the palace, in his eyes, they are even more vulnerable.
Emperor Wu didn't know all this, so naturally he didn't know what he was thinking.
However, Xiao Changfeng's words made his eyes slightly cold.
"I have never wanted to control you...even though you are my son."
"Everything I said today is for your own good."
Emperor Wu stared at Xiao Changfeng's eyes, as if he wanted to see some clues from his eyes.
But it's a pity that he couldn't see through Xiao Changfeng's state of mind at all.
In the end, he could only shake his head.
"That's all, I hope you really have the ability to face everything. There is a master of demon spirits in Duke Wei's palace. He is good at controlling ghosts and exorcising gods, and can kill people invisible. The queen is very likely to ask him to take action. You have to do it yourself.
careful."
Emperor Wu opened his mouth to remind.
However, he didn't know that Master Demon Spirit had already approached Xiao Changfeng.
But as a result, Xiao Changfeng's consciousness was severely damaged.
However, Xiao Changfeng would not tell Emperor Wu about this.
"Father, I will naturally be careful about these things, but there is one thing I hope my father can tell me."
Xiao Changfeng's eyes were dull. He already knew his father's warning.
"explain!"
Seeing Xiao Changfeng's persistence, Emperor Wu also sighed inwardly.
"Twelve years ago, a strange illness broke out in the palace, and then my mother disappeared. Father, do you know the news about my mother?"
Xiao Changfeng stared at Emperor Wu, hoping to get some clues from Emperor Wu.
However, it disappointed him.
"I am also guilty about your mother. You must know that your mother is not dead now, but I can't tell you the news about your mother yet."
Emperor Wu frowned and spoke solemnly.
"Is it because the people behind the queen are too strong?"
Xiao Changfeng stared at Emperor Wu.
Emperor Wu nodded and shook his head.
"This matter is very complicated and involves too much, but I know that even if I don't tell you today, you will find ways to investigate. In this case, we, father and son, will make a gentleman's agreement."
"There are still more than half a year, which is your one-year agreement with the boss. If you can win, I will tell you everything I know. If you lose, then listen to my words, hibernate and accumulate strength.
.”
"But you have to believe that I hope your mother can come back more urgently than anyone else."
After saying that, Emperor Wu looked at Xiao Changfeng intently.
"Okay, I promise you!"
Xiao Changfeng did not refuse and nodded, a gentleman's agreement was reached.
Seeing this, Emperor Wu finally smiled.
"I will not care about the second and third children's matters, but the extent to which I can suppress the queen is limited, so in the following days, you still have to rely on yourself."
After things were settled, Emperor Wu smiled more.
"Father, don't worry, I have my own means to save my life."
Xiao Changfeng smiled lightly, showing his confidence.
Emperor Wu didn't ask about this, obviously believing Xiao Changfeng.
"In that case, then go ahead and hope you won't disappoint me."
After the conversation ended, Emperor Wu knew that he could not discuss anything more with Xiao Changfeng for the time being, so he stopped detaining him.
But he is not worried. The days are still long and he still has time to observe more.
"In this case, I will resign!"
Xiao Changfeng didn't intend to stay any longer. He stood up and pushed open the gilded red sandalwood door without saluting.
"Oh, by the way, father, I have something else I want to say to you."
Xiao Changfeng paused and turned back to look at Emperor Wu.
"explain!"
Emperor Wu was slightly surprised.
"Don't lower your head, the crown will fall off!"
Xiao Changfeng smiled slightly, then strode forward and left with his head held high.
