Han Feng fell into a long silence when he heard the words.
King Ying and Zhang Dingnan didn't speak, they both quietly waited for Han Feng to make his own choice.
However, a moment later, Han Feng picked up a large glass of spirits in front of him and downed it in one gulp, and immediately a smile appeared on his face.
King Ying couldn't help but push his elbow against Zhang Dingnan and whispered: "Old Zhang, did I say too much, brother Han can't stand the stimulation..."
However, at this moment, Han Feng laughed boldly and said, "Your Highness King Ying, brother, that day at the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, I thought I was bound to die, but I didn't expect to save my life.
Three years later, if I die in the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, I will earn my life for three years, and I will not lose any money, but what if I win?No matter how slim the chance is, it is still there!
As long as Nian Xue is still waiting for me, three years later, I, Han Feng, will fight Hu Yan, and there must be a battle! "
Both of them were taken aback when they heard the words, and Zhang Dingnan couldn't help bursting out with a dazzling look in his eyes, and raised his glass to Han Feng.
"Well said, brother, as the saying goes, 'the brave are invincible', if you believe in you, you will surely be able to create miracles!"
King Ying on the side looked at the two people who suddenly had a high temperament, couldn't help but widen their eyes, and murmured: "Oh my god, why did I become friends with two lunatics?"
Having said that, he also raised the wine in his glass, and the three of them drank with their heads up under the moonlight!
That night, the three of them drank an unknown amount of wine, and none of them used their spiritual power to dissolve the alcohol. In the end, all three of them got drunk, and they just lay down on the top of the mountain and fell asleep soundly. .
At the moment before he passed out from drunk, Han Feng looked at the bright moon in the sky, his originally blurred eyes suddenly became extremely bright.
Three years!
In three years, to defeat an existence who is stronger than his elder brother and has the hope of stepping into the realm of martial arts, this matter is comparable to reaching the sky.
However, Han Feng was able to go all the way to the present, in his own opinion at the time, wasn't it also as difficult as reaching the sky?
What is impossible for others may not be impossible for you.
For the promise to Nian Xue, even if there are ten deaths and no life, I have to give it a try!
With a firm belief in his heart, but the drunkenness flooded in like a flood, Han Feng's eyes gradually blurred, and finally fell into a deep sleep.
……
In the early morning of the next day, a ray of light flew into the sky from the forest in the west of the northern border province.
Immediately, at an incredible speed, it disappeared at the end of the sky in an instant.
This escaping light is naturally Zhang Dingnan, Ying Wang and Han Feng.
With Zhang Dingnan, the top powerhouse in the empire, leading the two of them to flee, the speed is naturally ridiculously fast.
In just over an hour, the three of them were already in Xichuan Province.
As soon as he entered Xichuan Province, several figures had already fled from mid-air to greet him.
This is Prince Ying's personal guard. After receiving the summons from King Ying, they had already rushed to the border of Xichuan to welcome him back to his residence.
So King Ying parted ways with Zhang Dingnan and Han Feng first.
Before parting, King Ying repeatedly invited the two of them to go to his Ying City to enjoy life and feel the happiness of Ye Yu's ten daughters.
After being rejected by the two, King Ying blamed the two for not knowing how to enjoy life, and agreed that they must have a drink with the two again in the future, and then bid farewell to the two and left with some reluctance.
But Zhang Dingnan and Han Feng headed west, and after fleeing together for nearly ten thousand miles, they were about to part.
In the void, Zhang Dingnan said to Han Feng: "My dear brother, I have to go back to the governor's mansion first, and then I have to go to the imperial capital to meet His Majesty. I will say goodbye today. I don't know when we will see each other again. What are your future plans?" ?”
When Han Feng heard the words, he pondered for a while, but looked at the southern sky and said, "Brother, I want to go back to the academy first, and then set off...to the coastal battlefield."
"Oh...my brother is going to the coastal battlefield."
Han Feng nodded. He had already made this plan early this morning.
Originally, according to Han Feng's previous plan, he wanted to practice steadily in the academy and break through the star realm, but now this plan has to be changed.
Han Feng only has three years, he can't spend too much time to break through the star realm, he must achieve breakthroughs and upgrades faster.
And if you want to quickly improve your strength, the coastal battlefield is naturally perfect. Although it is the most dangerous place in the empire, it is also the place with the most opportunities and the fastest strength improvement.
Zhang Dingnan obviously saw Han Feng's thoughts, and couldn't help but nodded: "My dear brother, since you have already made a decision, my brother will naturally not stop you."
As he said that, Zhang Dingnan casually threw a jade slip to Han Feng and said: "My dear brother, this jade slip is a detailed introduction about the coastal battlefield. Before you leave, you should take a good look at the content, it should be helpful to you." help."
Han Feng took the jade slips, clasped his fists at Zhang Dingnan and said, "Thank you, brother, let's stay here!"
Zhang Dingnan nodded with a smile, and said in anticipation: "Brother, I hope that next time I see you, I can see a stronger you."
"must!"
Immediately, the two brothers separated in the void.
Zhang Dingnan turned into a fright and disappeared into the void in an instant, while Han Feng stepped on the ark and flew towards Tiannan College at a very high speed...
7 Chapter Eighty
When Zhang Dingnan and Han Feng parted ways.
In the main hall of the Qianlan Empire Palace, all the officials have retreated, and the door of the palace is closed.
At this moment, after Emperor Wu sat on the dragon table, his face was expressionless, and there was a fair middle-aged man standing bowed in the hall, wearing a first-grade official uniform, with a slightly dusty look on his face.
At this moment, he was facing the dragon case, and bowed to tell Emperor Wu everything that happened in Zhenbei Palace during this trip.
When it was finally heard, the marriage between King Zhenbei and King Zhennan was postponed until three years later.
Emperor Wu, who had lowered his eyes and closed his eyes to rest his mind, began to breathe evenly.
Immediately, he opened his eyes suddenly, his gaze was as sharp as a blade!
"Bold!"
Emperor Wu suddenly uttered an angry reprimand, and slapped his palm on the dragon case. A violent wind swept across the hall, and the pen, ink and memorials on the dragon case were directly lifted up and scattered all over the hall!
Seeing that Emperor Wu was angry, Shangguan Qingfeng, who had just rushed back to the imperial capital from Zhenbei Palace, hurriedly knelt down.
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
On the left and right of the dragon case, the prince Zhu Hongyu, who was standing beside him, and the eunuch "Yuan Lu", the supervisor of ceremonies and Bingbi, also knelt down at the same time.
When Emperor Wu got angry, the temperature in the entire palace hall instantly dropped to freezing point, and the three of them were silent.
After a while, Emperor Wu looked at Shangguan Qingfeng again, and asked in a cold voice: "Shangguan Qingfeng, who is that madman who disturbed the engagement ceremony of King Zhenbei?"
Shangguan Qingfeng hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this person's name is 'Han Feng'. According to the investigation, he is an intermediate disciple of Tiannan College."
"Han Feng!"
When hearing this name, the expression of the prince who was kneeling beside Emperor Wu suddenly changed.
Even Emperor Wu was slightly taken aback when he heard the name.
The old eunuch Yuan Lu on the side reminded at the right time: "Your Majesty, what Lord Shangshu said should be the one who designed the 'Zhuge Liannu' a year ago, and made meritorious service in Beiyangguan half a year ago, and was conferred the title of 'Viscount' by you." youth."
"It's him!" Emperor Wu focused his eyes, but then he said angrily: "A mere viscount dares to destroy the marriage of two princes. I really don't know how high and earthly it is. Shangguan Qingfeng, have you ever captured this person and brought him back?"
"Uh……"
When Shangguan Qingfeng heard the words, his eyes flickered slightly, and he muttered: "Your Majesty, forgive me...incompetent, I dare not arrest this person."
"Oh...?" Emperor Wu's eyes flashed when he heard the words, and he keenly sensed that there was something in Shangguan Qingfeng's words.
"Why don't you dare?"
Shangguan Qingfeng said with a look of embarrassment: "Return to Your Majesty, after this person arrived at the Zhenbei Palace, His Highness King Ying and Zhang Shuai took good care of him.
Although the old minister intends to bring this son back to the imperial capital and hand it over to His Majesty, there is nothing he can do if those two stand in the way. I hope His Majesty will forgive me. "
When Emperor Wu heard the words, he became even more furious, and said again, "How unreasonable is this? Are Zhang Dingnan and King Ying trying to do something wrong to me? How dare they protect this daring lunatic!"
Seeing this, the prince Zhu Hongyu at the side saw his pupils flicker, and said involuntarily: "Father, my child is willing to go to Xichuan Province, capture Han Feng and return to the imperial capital, and obey Father's orders."
Emperor Wu heard the words, glanced at the prince next to him and said: "The prince is willing to share my worries, I am very relieved, but it is related to Zhang Dingnan and King Ying, even if you are sent to Xichuan, it will not help.
I have to make a personal decision on this matter, and the relevant people must be severely punished! "
As soon as these words came out, the crown prince bowed his head and couldn't help showing joy, but Shangguan Qingfeng, who was kneeling in front of the hall, frowned indiscernibly.
Immediately, Emperor Wu spoke again: "Shangguan Qingfeng, how many people know what happened at the engagement ceremony of King Zhenbei?"
Shangguan Qingfeng hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, when King Zhenbei was betting against Han Feng, he blocked the sky, and the only people who saw the whole process were a dozen governors and several princes and nobles in the inner courtyard.
However, before returning to the imperial capital, the old minister had already discussed with them, asking them to keep this matter a secret and not to spread it to the outside world, and make a decision after the old minister gave a report to His Majesty. "
Emperor Wu nodded slowly, "Well...you did a good job, and this matter is indeed not suitable for spreading."
After speaking, Emperor Wu pondered for a while, and couldn't help stretching out his hand to rub the center of his brows, showing a little tiredness and said: "Aiqing, you must be tired after traveling all the way, so go back and rest first, I will reward you later.
As for how to deal with this matter, I have to think about it carefully. "
Upon hearing the words, Shangguan Qingfeng hurriedly bowed and bid farewell: "In that case, the old minister will retire first!"
Emperor Wu nodded, and said to Zhu Hongyu who was at the side: "Prince, go see your teacher off."
The prince quickly responded, and personally sent Shangguan Qingfeng out of the palace gate, and the two of them walked towards the palace gate all the way.
On the way, the prince finally couldn't restrain his joy and said in a low voice: "Teacher, this time Zhang Dingnan and the others are finally going to be unlucky!"
Hearing this, Shangguan Qingfeng, who is also the Minister of the Ministry of Officials and the Prince's Shaofu, did not have the slightest joy on his face. Instead, he frowned and muttered: "Prince, you are too happy."
The prince was puzzled when he heard the words, "Why did the teacher say that? Didn't you see how furious the father was in the hall just now?"
Shangguan Qingfeng shook his head and sighed: "Prince, what kind of person is Your Majesty, how can he easily express anger.
Furthermore, if Your Majesty really wants to vigorously punish Zhang Dingnan, why didn't you summon me in front of all the courtiers, instead of summoning me alone after the court was over? "
Hearing this, the prince couldn't help but change his face slightly, "Teacher, what do you mean..."
Shangguan Qingfeng bowed his hands to the prince, and said goodbye: "Your Highness does not need to send you far, the old minister has resigned, and His Highness must never get involved in this matter."
The prince stood on the spot, his eyes flickering, thoughtful.
……
But in the main hall, not long after the crown prince sent Shangguan Qingfeng out of the hall, an eunuch came to report.
"Your Majesty, the Eldest Princess is seeking an audience outside the palace."
"Oh... is it Sixth Sister?" Emperor Wu couldn't help showing surprise when he heard the words, and immediately refused to call, but got up in person and went out of the palace gate to greet her.
At this moment, in the corridor on the left side of the main hall, beside the fence carved with white jade, there was already a slim figure standing and waiting.
This is a woman with a tulle mask, her temples are like clouds, black and soft, she wears a hollowed-out phoenix hairpin pinched with gold thread on her head, she wears an ivory white long skirt, and is covered with a palace gauze embroidered with gold and silver silk. .
Even if the woman wears a veil, but the pair of unpainted but black willow eyebrows, the clear and calm eyes like clear spring water, and the snow-white skin like cream can make people think that under the veil of this woman, there must be A stunning face that can overwhelm the country and the city.
Seeing this familiar figure, Emperor Wu couldn't help speeding up his pace, with a friendly smile on his face, he took the initiative to say, "Sixth sister, why did you come to the palace today."
Facing Emperor Wu, the woman bowed slightly to salute, her movements were noble and generous, and her voice was as soft as "a sinking fish is heard".
"Qing He, I have seen Brother Huang."
It turned out that this woman was the sixth daughter of the first emperor, "Princess Qinghe", known as the most beautiful woman in the empire.
After Emperor Wu succeeded to the throne, he named the younger sister of the same mother as the "Eldest Princess" of the empire, which is also the highest rank among princesses.
Seeing Princess Qinghe, Emperor Wu rarely showed a gentle smile, stepped forward to support her personally and said: "Sixth sister, I have already said that I promised you not to worship me, why do you have to be so polite."
Princess Qing He's eyes were quiet and elegant, and she said softly: "Brother Huang is now the Son of Heaven, how can Qing He lose his courtesy."
Emperor Wu smiled helplessly, and said: "Qing He, you haven't been in the palace for a long time, why don't you accompany me to the Imperial Garden for a walk today."
Princess Qinghe nodded, and then the two brothers and sisters went to the imperial garden together.
The imperial garden was full of flowers and beautiful scenery. Emperor Wu and Princess Chang walked through it, chatting casually, talking about trivial matters of their parents, and the interesting experiences of living in the palace when the two were young.
Most of the time, it was Emperor Wu who was talking, while the eldest princess just listened quietly from the side, sometimes nodding in response.
The two walked for a while, Emperor Wu was talking about an interesting incident when he was young, when he lowered his head, he suddenly saw that the eldest princess was holding a manual in his hand.
Emperor Wu couldn't help being a little curious, "Sixth sister, what classic book are you holding in your hand?"
The eldest princess replied: "A collection of poems, an excellent collection of poems."
"Oh... a collection of poems?" Emperor Wu suddenly became interested.
"Sixth sister, I remember that you said before I ascended the throne that although there were many literati in the Qianlan Empire, there were not many who could catch your eyes with poems and articles.
But even so, I have never heard you use the word "excellent" to evaluate other people's poems. I don't know if this collection of poems is written by any great Confucian in the empire? "
The eldest princess smiled and said two words softly.
