Heaven rewards those who work hard: There is no bottleneck in my martial arts

Chapter 94 Depression (23)

After Feng Dabao hesitated for a while in the room, he finally decided to tell Zhao Gongxu about it.

If something really happens as he expected later, then His Majesty should be asked to deal with it early, so as not to be too passive when being approached by Zhengmen.

Qianqing Palace.

"You said that the fifth child might have gone out of the palace to chase and kill Li Zhiwu?"

Knowing the judgment given by Feng Dabao, Emperor Jian'an was really surprised.

The elder of the Zhengyi Palace, even if he hurts others, he has some concerns, but he didn't expect that the fifth child would dare to do it directly.

He knew that his fifth son was a secretive person, and he probably had some intentions, but he didn't expect him to be so fierce.

"This is just the old slave's judgment. If the news of Elder Li's death comes later, it is likely to be the case." Feng Dabao said respectfully: "If Your Majesty wants to know immediately, His Highness Xuanwu can come directly. Ask in person."

Zhao Gongxu raised his hand and said, "No need. Regardless of Li Zhiwu's life or death, it must have nothing to do with the royal family of Wei State. Feng Banban, the ancestor of the Huo family is still serving as a guest servant?"

"Reporting to Your Highness, as far as this old slave knows, he is still in the main gate."

"Let the ancestor of the Huo family do his best. The many elders in the Zhengyi sect are not all in one iron bucket. Let him cover this matter up, and I will not treat the Huo family badly. I can also give some of the elders who have made good friends to them. Some benefits."

"The Huo family is not thinking right now, isn't your majesty fueling their flames this time?"

"I have found out that the ancestors of his family have not much lifespan, so let them be arrogant for a while longer."

Feng Dabao was stunned for a moment, understood Zhao Gongxu's plan to delay the attack, and hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty is wise, this old slave will do it now."

……

"Fifth brother, why do I feel that you have more guards here than before?"

The Eighth Prince Zhao Hongguang pulled a chair and sat down, then picked a grape and threw it into his mouth, swallowing the grape with the belt in one gulp.

After killing Li Zhiwu, Zhao Hongming stayed in and out for the next two days.

Basically, they lived in their own residences and Tibetan martial arts buildings.

After the eighth prince came back from the first gate, he ran to his side immediately.

Regarding the changes of some guards, Zhao Hongming knew it well.

This was all arranged by Emperor Jian'an, who silently strengthened his protection after his showdown.

Not only that, Emperor Jian'an secretly sent people to bring him a lot of pills and wishing stones.

All of the above are carried out secretly, and not many people know about it.

Zhao Hongming said casually: "It is probably because of the Korean assassins before. Father must have strengthened the palace's defenses on purpose."

The Eighth Prince Zhao Hongguang deeply agrees with this.

If it wasn't for these assassins happening in the palace, they wouldn't have gone to the main gate, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince died in the middle.

"Fifth brother, why did you come back one day earlier?"

"I really couldn't stay there. I came back immediately when I heard the news that my father was coming to pick us up."

"Fifth brother is still free and easy, so I dare not make my own claim." The eighth prince continued mysteriously, "Does fifth brother know that a big event happened at Zhengyimen on the day you left?"

Zhao Hongming asked curiously, "What's the big deal?"

"The daughter of Elder Li who was introduced to you as a wife died, and now I don't know who did it."

When Zhao Hongming heard the news, he showed a surprised expression and said, "There is such a thing? It is easy to confirm the murderer in Zhengyimen?"

At that time, when he went to see Li Shengnan, many disciples should have seen it on the way, and it should be easy to suspect him.

Why can't Zhengyimen be confirmed?
The Eighth Prince shook his head and said: "I don't know either, an elder from Zhengyi Sect has issued an order that no one is allowed to discuss this matter."

Hearing this, Zhao Hongming felt that some accidents that he didn't know about might have happened in Zhengyi Sect.

What he caused seemed to be suppressed by a pair of invisible hands.

This is good news for him.

Sure enough, the dead are of little value.

Perhaps the greatest value of a dead person is to be used by others for extortion.

Zhao Hongming thought that he had come down several times, but fortunately he did not make a mistake and made things develop in his favor. He replied: "This probably involves some struggles in the Zhengyi sect, which is beyond the capabilities of ordinary people like us. know."

The Eighth Prince Zhao Hongguang nodded in agreement: "From now on, let's be a happy prince with peace of mind, and leave these matters to the father and the others to worry about."

"Fifth brother, do you have a year left before you will build a mansion and become a king?"

"Almost. I just don't know where I will be sealed by my father in the future."

The Eighth Prince said: "Fifth Brother, if you become a king and go to the fiefdom, aren't the people around you a little too thin? I think you should ask Father more to send you more experts. After all, Fifth Brother, you Unlike us, without mother concubine and relatives, it will be very difficult to become king in the future."

After the Eighth Prince's reminder, Zhao Hongming fell into deep thought.

He felt that what Zhao Hongguang said made sense.

It's time to cultivate your own power.

Now his confidantes are also Chang Wubing.

Wu Qi and others who were newly assigned to him had been practicing in the camp.

The time they spent with each other was short, and he couldn't fully trust each other.

Before that, he had been concentrating on his own cultivation, and if he wanted to become king in the future, this was something he had to consider.

Zhao Hongming nodded and said: "The eighth brother is right, I have to find time to talk to my father about this later."

"If the father doesn't want to see you, then I can go talk to the concubine mother and let her speak nice words to the fifth brother in front of the father."

Zhao Hongming smiled silently in his heart.

Now that he wants to see Zhao Gongxu, Zhao Gongxu would be eager to summon him.

Strong strength gave him enough confidence.

He was no longer the little transparent prince in Emperor Jian'an's heart.

"Well, if the emperor doesn't want to see me then, I'll go find you again."

The Eighth Prince Zhao Hongguang picked another grape and threw it into his mouth, and said, "It's getting late, I'm going back. I'll come and play with Fifth Brother when I'm free."

"Okay. Eighth brother, go slowly." Zhao Hongming ordered: "Gao Yanshi, send the Eighth Highness off."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Gao Yanshi stood guard outside the door, bowed his head in response, and followed the eighth prince Zhao Hongguang step by step, showing the utmost royal etiquette.

Looking at the back of Gao Yanshi leaving.

Zhao Hongming became thoughtful.

He found that the little eunuch was not only smart, but also extremely motivated.

I heard that I have been reading and learning characters in private.

Now I was illiterate when I first entered the palace, and now I can finish reading some basic articles.

Right now, there are not many people available around.

Maybe I should give him a chance and spend more time cultivating him.
