Traveling through the Gaowu Tang Dynasty, Li Kuan and Li Shimin became the second sons of the Prince

Although the King of Chu has always been good at using passionate speeches to bewitch... um... inspire people, unfortunately, the Queen Mother has never been someone that His Royal Highness the King of Chu can win over with just a few words.

then……

The Ganlu Palace, which had just been cleaned up by the palace servants, was once again raining "chicken feathers"...

"Xuan Ce, you don't know, now that I am in the palace... I am going from bad to worse... Even my mother... Sigh!" The next day, when His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was having a "secret meeting" with his trusted retainer Wang Xuance in a restaurant in Chang'an, the unscrupulous head of the family who had previously threatened to throw the other party to the ground now had a tragic look on his face: "Speaking of which... it's all my father's fault, that incompetent monarch! He's always thinking about stabbing me in the back..."

“Your Highness…” Wang Xuance now had a deep understanding of the King of Chu, so he would definitely not be fooled by such a false appearance: “If you can usually avoid making His Majesty angry, I believe you won’t…”

“Xuan Ce, you still don’t understand…” Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu shook his head, then sighed softly: “My father is a person… sometimes it’s hard to describe him in words…”

"..." Wang Xuance was already tortured by the nonsense literature of His Royal Highness the King of Chu and didn't want to talk anymore. But in order to prevent the patriarch from continuing to talk about this dangerous topic, he thought about it and immediately said, "Your Highness the King of Chu, should we go see Feng Ang now?"

"Feng Ang..." After being reminded by his retainer, His Royal Highness the King of Chu finally remembered the purpose of his leaving the palace this time: "Yes! Feng Ang... Well, Lord Feng is the backbone of the court and the pillar of the country. We should go and pay him a visit!"

“Your Highness… you want to scold Feng Ang, right?” Although His Highness the Prince of Chu was a man who was rarely serious, Wang Xuance had long been accustomed to it: “You can scold him if you want to. It’s just Feng Ang. He can’t cause any trouble.”

"Alas! Xuan Ce, you are such a person..." Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the King of Chu placed a hand on Wang Xuance's shoulder and began to hug his good retainer: "Some things can only be understood, not spoken, do you understand?"

"I understand..." Wang Xuance smiled and nodded. At this moment, he couldn't help but think of an interesting story about His Royal Highness the King of Chu that other retainers had mentioned to him before: "Your Highness... This is called 'blank space', right?"

"Well! Not bad! This young man is teachable!"

-------------------------------------

Half an hour later, in Feng Ang's mansion.

"Mr. Feng! I haven't seen you for a long time. I really miss you!" - In the hall, His Royal Highness the King of Chu had not yet taken his seat, but he had already started to talk nonsense: "Mr. Feng, why don't you return to Lingnan? Are you blinded by the wealth of Chang'an? Can't help wanting to die here?"

"Your Highness, I..." Feng Ang's understanding of His Highness the King of Chu had risen to a new level through his "going north to capture the thief" this time, so no matter what the other party said, he did not dare to feel the slightest anger in his heart: "I am old now, and the prosperity of this world is actually nothing to me. My greatest wish is to return to Lingnan as soon as possible and live out my life in peace..."

"Ah?" When His Royal Highness the King of Chu realized that this provocation was useless, he immediately blinked: "Mr. Feng, your answer... really surprised me..."

"Why are you surprised, Your Highness?" Hearing this, Feng Ang raised his brows slightly and began to counter the question: "How do you think I will answer, Your Highness?"

"Hmm..." Seeing that the other party had thrown the problem to him, His Royal Highness the King of Chu said without hesitation: "I thought Lord Feng would tell me that 'the emperor is angry'. After all, for you, Feng Ang, Lingnan is your kingdom, isn't it?"

"Your Highness!" As soon as His Highness the Prince of Chu said this, Feng Ang began to feel uneasy: after all this fuss, this living ancestor didn't just want to make the Feng family suffer, but wanted to make the Feng family die!

As soon as he thought of this, Feng Ang immediately stood up and knelt in front of Li Kuan: "Your Highness, the King of Chu! I swear that I have no such intention! Lingnan is the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and I am a subject of your majesty and your highness! Please understand clearly, Your Highness!"

"Is it interesting?" His Royal Highness the King of Chu looked at Feng Ang who was kneeling in front of him. He first calmly took a sip of the teacup beside him, then said indifferently: "Mr. Feng, I want to discuss a business with you. It concerns the future of the Tang Dynasty and your Feng family. I wonder if you are willing to take this deal?"

"Your Highness, please speak!" Feng Ang knew that what was supposed to come had finally come.

"No, what I am asking now is whether you are willing to take over this deal. You have to answer this question first, and then I can tell you what kind of deal it is." - It must be said that His Royal Highness the King of Chu's talent for business is definitely not as good as his talent for being a bandit.

"Your Highness..." Feng Ang was really embarrassed now: "Why don't you tell me first..."

"I can't say." Li Kuan's expression was extremely serious at the moment: "If you agree, I will promise you that the Feng family will last for thousands of years. If you don't agree, I will leave immediately without saying anything."

"Your Highness..." Feng Ang was still struggling: "It's not that I don't want to agree to your request, but you should at least make it clear in advance..."

"Mr. Feng, it's hard to make this deal clear in advance." At the critical moment, Wang Xuance finally stood up and made a perfect assist for His Royal Highness the King of Chu: "The world is in chaos, and the Feng family is not qualified to be an outsider and open the curtain."

"..."At this moment, Feng Ang looked at His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu and his good retainers in front of him. The old man had only one thought in his mind: His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu...is planning to rebel!

As soon as this thought came to mind, the small flame of ambition in Feng Ang's heart gradually began to spread like wildfire.

In the end... he made up his mind and decided to bet the entire Feng family on it. After all, according to that bastard's logic, if he said he didn't agree at this time, he would most likely be "suppressed".

And if he agrees, then His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu, who currently has only a 55% chance of winning, will see his chance of winning increase by at least 10%!

With this thought in mind, Feng Ang finally stopped hesitating: "Your servant Feng Ang is willing to lead the entire Lingnan Feng family to die for His Majesty the King of Chu!"

Once the words are spoken, the oath is made!

It’s impossible to regret!

"Very good!" His Royal Highness the King of Chu looked at Feng Ang in front of him, his eyes flashing with admiration: "Mr. Feng, from today on, I will treat you as my confidant. Don't worry, I am a bit of a jerk outside, but I am always kind to my own people!"
