The Uncertain Crown's Heir Chapter 4

At first glance, Fu Chonglin didn't take it seriously. His knowledge of Fu Yuanzhou's martial arts mostly came from rumors. How could Fu Yuanzhou have the courage to attack him? Now that he saw that he didn't even know about the sword he always kept with him. He smiled disdainfully and said, "You have no weapons, what can you do?"

"Sometimes, does it matter whether you have weapons or not?" Fuyuan Zhou slowly stood up straight. His blue embroidered three-claw pattern dragon gown and black hair were gently rolled by the cold wind blowing in. He raised his hands and feet. Chinese style and martial arts coexisted, and the scornful attitude of dragons and phoenixes. He obviously had no sharp weapons and was obviously working alone. But when he raised his head and looked directly at Fu Chonglin, with a gentle and skillful look, endless coercion rolled over him.

Fu Chonglin's heart trembled, and a trace of sweat broke out from his hand on the sword at his waist. He just got carried away for a moment. This third brother is simply not like a normal person. His literary talent and martial arts are all top-notch. Now that he has broken his face, Eli can no longer maintain his hypocritical skin. Just by looking at his whole body, he can tell that he is the number one in the court. The master's praise is true. If the other party is really treacherous and drags him to be buried with him, how can he escape unscathed?

However, the more this happened, the deeper the resentment in his heart became. He was the queen's son, and the royal family was orthodox. However, he had an eldest brother who was of humble origin but had the spirit of founding a country and establishing borders. He had an elder brother who was both civil and military and had the ability to protect the country and secure the country. The third younger brother of Cai Cai, they were the most favored by his father and the emperor and the civil and military officials. The jealous queen was not favored. He was caught in the middle and could neither be civilized nor military. In the battle for the throne, he was repeatedly suppressed by the two parties--- ---How can you not hate it! ?

"For a lost dog, you are very dignified."

"You are not as well-dressed as the Second Emperor Brother."

They looked at each other, one with resentment and the other with pride under the heavy shadows.

Fu Chonglin gritted his teeth and said, "I'm going to invite my third brother to go to the Criminal Department with my brother. Of course, my brother should dress up and be ready."

King Yongning's eyes darkened and he said, "I'm afraid Yuanzhou doesn't dare to obey."

Fu Chonglin sneered: "Third brother, you are so treacherous that you colluded with Tessa Concub!ne in an attempt to kill your father and seize the throne. Are you still planning to fight with all your might?!"

"Killing one's father to seize the throne... is such a big crime," Fu Yuanzhou curled up his lips, his smile did not reach his eyes, but his tone was impeccably sincere, "I really don't know who wronged Yuan Zhou. , I hope the emperor will take notice."

"I'm afraid I have disappointed my third brother. The Reed Eunuch next to Tessa Concub!ne has confessed that it was you who brought the poison into the palace and gave it to your mother and Tessa Concub!ne. The evidence is conclusive. How can you let the imperial brother find out?" King Gongsu said with a look of regret.

Reed Eunuch? What Reed Eunuch? Fu Yuanzhou was thinking a lot in his heart, but he shook his head helplessly, "It seems that Yuanzhou has hired the wrong person. The eldest brother is in charge of the punishment department, and the second brother... seems to have no say."

The words hit a sore spot, and Fu Chonglin's eyes filled with anger, and his deliberately lowered voice was still sharp and harsh: "Do you think that the Emperor's brother will save you when we get to the Ministry of Punishment? Don't be too naive, third brother, the emperor's family is ruthless, and the throne is more important than anything else." Everything is important. "Fu Yuan Zhou is so talented, how could the prince tolerate his existence?

Fu Yuanzhou's eyes were slightly dark.

King Gongsu sneered, beckoned the Imperial Guards to surround the study with chains, and shouted: "The guilty minister Fu Yuanzhou colluded with Tessa Concub!ne to poison his father. He must be punished for his crime. If he does not surrender quickly, he will be killed on the spot!" "

There were many bows and arrows all around, and the cold light flickered. In such a dangerous situation, Fuyuan Zhou seemed to ignore it and said calmly: "I want to see my father."

"I'm afraid it's not up to you, third brother." Fu Chonglin had no intention of taking him to the Ministry of Punishment for trial, so he was determined to force him to resist so that he could eradicate the problem openly and honestly.

Fu Yuanzhou's eyes deepened - Fu Chonglin was not prepared to let him walk out of Yongning Palace alive at all, he wanted him to die...

The vigilant King Gongsu exited the study, said no more, waved his hand and ordered: "Take down King Ning!"

The swords were clanging, and the murderous intent of the imperial army and the palace guards spread instantly. Eli held down the soft sword at his waist. If there was any chance of using all his strength...

"Slow------" At the moment when the swords were at stake, a high-pitched sound mixed with internal force drove into the two groups of people. Everyone was stunned, and Fu Chonglin and Fu Yuanzhou subconsciously looked towards the entrance of the courtyard.

There, two rows of silver-clad iron guards with ice-cold armor cut a passage through the layers of Forbidden Army. The one who started to shout at the soldiers was none other than Chang An, the valet next to the Crown Prince. After stopping the imminent move of the Forbidden Army, he turned sideways and bowed respectfully. Give way to the person behind you.

Winter has not yet passed, the chill is deep into the bones, and the cold wind is blowing. A pair of white silk-covered shoes with silver chi pattern and upturned toes step on the ground with a little snow. Then what is reflected in front of the person is a thick snow fox fur of the same color, made of plain satin. The white court clothes he wore were surrounded by soaring four-clawed golden dragons. The tall and straight man was very young and not very tall. He just walked in slowly without saying a word. He was so powerful that he stood out from the rest. The double dragons He clenched the beads and hit the crown with a crisp jade sound. His face was frosty white, his eyes were as cold as cold stars, his lips were plump and firm, his godlike face was full of solemnity, and the corners of his eyes were filled with vermilion tears, which was clearly dyed with a hint of charm. Leng Li, when he looked at her, felt blood all over her body and shuddered. No one dared to look directly at his face.

------The current crown prince, Bennett Fu.

King Gongsu's face suddenly became ugly.

"Brother Emperor." Seeing Bennett Fu's arrival, Fu Yuanzhou felt very complicated. He couldn't tell whether he should be worried or relieved. Bennett Fu behaved seriously and would not just let Fu Chonglin shoot him to death with thousands of arrows. However, the battle for the throne was close at hand, and even if it fell into his hands, it might not be a good thing, especially in the past few years, Bennett Fu had been Very distant from him...

The young prince glanced at the handsome third brother. The scene in his dream a few days ago flashed through his mind, making his eyelashes flutter slightly, and he quickly moved his eyes to the other brother, "Chonglin."

The cold and majestic voice was neither high nor low, but it made King Gongsu's hair stand on end involuntarily. When he raised his head, he unexpectedly met a pair of amber eyes, which were sharp, sharp and calm. Even though he had been on the battlefield for many years, these eyes were still... His oppression has never been less.

"Can you mobilize the imperial army to guard the important areas of the palace?" Standing still in the courtyard, Bennett Fu asked calmly but the target of his question was not Fu Yuanzhou.

Fu Chonglin was startled and argued: "The third brother harmed my father, and I am here to arrest him..."

"In his position and in charge of his government, I have always been in charge of the Clan House and the Xing Department. The matter of the third brother should also be handled by me. Chonglin was so impatient that he overstepped his authority and interfered." Feng Dong was a little anxious, but the man in white clothes and frost was calm. The ground is covered with fox fur, and under the long narrow eyes, the cinnabar is blood-red, extremely cold and charming, and thrilling, "Where are you going to put me?"

His tone was light, his words were heavy, and his eyes seemed to penetrate all the secrets, forcing Fu Chonglin to clenched his fists suddenly, lowered his eyes and said: "Brother, the emperor's words are serious, I have no disrespect, brother, the emperor is the prince." You have a lot to deal with every day, and I just want to share some of it with you. "

As if he really believed in his brother's good intentions, Bennett Fu turned his attention away from him and said: "As long as you have this intention, it is better for me to handle such important matters personally. Retreat, Chonglin."

After falling short, Fu Chonglin reluctantly said "yes". The matter of Fu Yuan Zhou should be handed over to the Clan Mansion that governs the royal family. Even if he had the Forbidden Army Tiger Talisman, he could not interfere with the affairs of the Clan Mansion and was not eliminated in time. Fuyuan Zhou, what a mistake...

Fu Chonglin's face was hidden in the shadows, and when he looked at Bennett Fu, half of his resentment seeped out of his pupils - this man was always like this, stepping on everyone with his own power, as if he was born to be in his position. And supreme.

Bennett Fu looked at Fu Yuan Zhou, who had been on guard since he appeared, and said calmly: "Yuan Zhou, do I personally invite you to go to the clan mansion, or do you go by yourself?" His tone was as if it was just a matter of time. It's as simple as asking him to go to the East Palace to talk.

"My brother, I have something to say..."

"Do you want me to invite you?" The amber eyes flew over, and they were iron-blooded and cold to the bone.

All the words that he wanted to see his father were stuck in his throat. Fuyuan Zhoufeng frowned slightly and considered the stakes in his mind before saying, "I don't dare to bother my brother."

"Then follow." Bennett Fu said nothing more and turned around to leave.

When he saw this scene, Fuchong became anxious: "The third brother is very powerful in martial arts. Now if we capture him without shackles, wouldn't it be like letting the tiger go back to the mountain? Brother, please think again!"

Bennett Fu didn't even look back, "Yuanzhou, what use are the shackles to you?"

Fu Yuanzhou changed his mind and said calmly: "It's nothing."

Fu Chonglin's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he could only watch two figures, one white and one blue, leaving Yongning Palace.

He was also filled with doubts. What was Bennett Fu's attitude? If you want to win an ally, why not let Fu Yuanzhou go to see the emperor to clarify the matter of Tessa Concub!ne's poisoning? If you want to eliminate dissidents, why don't you join forces with him, but have a vague intention to protect Fuyuan Zhou?
