God of Nine Realms

Chapter 296
"The great prince of the Great Chu Dynasty, Chu Hanmin!"

"What! He is the eldest prince!" Hu Feng was taken aback.

He didn't expect that the person he had talked with for a long time just now would be a member of the royal family, and he was also the eldest prince.

"Brother Luo, take a step to speak!" Hu Feng was a little worried, and hurriedly left the Crane Terrace with Luo Ming, and opened a room at "Unbelievable Price" again.

In the room above Tianzi, Hu Feng kept pace.

"I didn't expect the eldest prince of the current dynasty to be such a weak person, but his talents and knowledge are indeed extraordinary. In terms of conversation, he is much better than other princes."

"Of course, the Eldest Prince is the most respected among all the princes. When the Eldest Prince is mentioned in Huajing City, no one gives a thumbs up." Luo Ming continued, and couldn't help but gossip at the end.

"It is said that the Eldest Prince was very weak when he was born, and he almost died. His Majesty King Min should have placed high hopes on him as a new father, but seeing that his physique is so weak, he couldn't help but shook his head and said, 'I don't want him to be green, just look at him The second prince, on the contrary, showed extraordinary roots when he was born, King Min once said, "I hope he will forge ahead and show his sharpness", so he was named Hanmang."

"And this allusion?" Hu Feng couldn't help laughing, and then began to think again.

"The Crane Terrace should belong to the second prince's power, why would the eldest prince wait for me inside? Could it be that he also took refuge in the second prince?" This was a difficult question for Hu Feng.

"Brother Hu, I think you are worrying too much. Although the eldest prince is weak, he is very kind to the princes. Although he has no martial arts skills, most of the other princes have been taught by him and respect him very much. No prince really dares to flirt with the eldest prince."

"So that's the case, but I still can't figure out what he wants to do when he talks to me today? Could it be that the eldest prince also wants to recruit me? Doesn't it mean that he is over 30 years old and has no qualifications to fight for the king?"

"Hey, it's a pity for the eldest prince. Such an outstanding person has no chance of being on the throne. In fact, many people in the capital secretly support the eldest prince. Even the state religion Qingxuan Sword Sect sent experts to escort the eldest prince. This is King Min. The treatment that His Majesty has never enjoyed. It’s just that His Majesty Jiang Wang believed in Jian Tiansi’s prophecy, said something new should be revealed, and said that the king must be under 30 years old, so he directly excluded the eldest prince.” When it was mentioned here, Luo Ming couldn't help but sigh again.

"A prince with such a reputation, does he really have no ambitions for the throne?" Hu Feng was somewhat disbelieving.

"Maybe it's because of the fact that an imperial doctor has calculated for the eldest prince that his body won't survive the age of 40. Maybe it's because of this that the eldest prince devotes himself to learning and doesn't care about the throne. His illness is really serious. Ordinarily, if you look at his face, he looks younger than the Seventeenth Prince, and it is said that his blood is impeded and his skin grows slowly." Luo Ming explained.

"That's how it is. When I first saw him, I thought he was a young man with a weak crown. I never thought that he was the eldest prince who was over [-] years old."

Speaking of this, Hu Feng couldn't help staring at Luo Ming, and suddenly asked: "Brother Luo, I'm afraid Brother Luo is not an unusual person to know so many hidden secrets of the royal family. You already know my identity, but I haven't Knowing who you are, it's not fair."

Luo Ming smiled awkwardly when he heard the words: "Actually, it's nothing, I just don't want to spread it around. In fact, the commander of the imperial guards, Luo Meng, is my father."

"So that's the case. I never thought Brother Luo would have such a prominent status."

Luo Ming couldn't help curling his lips: "What's so prominent? We warriors are all very old. It's normal for a family like ours to pass the throne from generation to generation. I'm over forty years old, and I'm still unknown in Huajing City. On the contrary, my eldest son, who was young and lightly entered the recent hot youth master list, although he is only in the [-]s, but the old man treats him more than me, and the position of Patriarch in the future will definitely fall on him. "

"Inheriting the throne from generation to generation, it is true that warriors have a long lifespan, which is somewhat different from the inheritance of ordinary people."

"No, His Majesty King Min was in his prime, and this generation of princes has no chance. Who knew that Jian Tiansi's prophecy gave these little guys a chance. Besides, what's so good about being king? Listen to His Majesty Jiang's order?"

As soon as Luo Ming opened the chatter box, he couldn't stop. Hu Feng listened silently, occasionally interjecting a few words.The two talked for several hours, and through Luo Ming's mouth, Hu Feng also had a good grasp of the general situation in Beijing.

……

The literary test for the battle for the throne began soon, and the Seventeenth Prince looked a little dignified when he came back.He passed the literary test this time, but it also meant that he was officially involved in this turmoil.

Among King Chu Min's sons, the youngest one to participate in the battle for the throne was Prince Nineteen, who just turned 20 this year, and his cultivation was only in the middle stage of confluence.

The essay test was not too difficult, and apart from the eldest prince, there were also a few princes who were always in poor health and did not come.In the end, there were only ten candidates who passed the essay test.

In the Qinghui Temple in the suburbs of Beijing, the eldest prince Chu Hanmin stood on the highest altar and looked into the distance.

"The mountains and rivers are picturesque, but it's a pity that this painting is too decayed. Only by being reborn from the ashes can it be rejuvenated!" Chu Hanmin mused.

At this moment, the second prince, Chu Hanmang, came all the way on a majestic fire lion, and stopped near the altar.

He got off his horse and came to the eldest prince, and asked: "Brother, why did you come to this kind of place? Is there anything you can't tell the mansion? Why did you call me here?"

Chu Hanmang turned around, walked up to him, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Hanmang, you will not be easy during the martial arts test. The greater your chances of winning, the more difficulties you will encounter."

"I know this in my heart. Don't worry, big brother, I will do my best! This time the throne belongs to me!" Chu Hanmang said confidently.

"No, no. I don't want you to win. On the contrary, I want you to lose. When you encounter difficulties, just let go after resisting. It's useless to fight for this throne."

"What, brother, what do you mean?" Chu Hanmang was taken aback, he didn't expect Chu Hanmin to say that.

"You don't need to know what it means, just do what I say. Don't you even trust me?"

Chu Hanmang took a deep breath and said, "Without Big Brother, I would not be where I am today. How could I not believe what Big Brother said? I listen to Big Brother!"

A smile appeared on Chu Hanmin's face, and he said: "Don't worry, I won't let you be wronged as a brother. You keep this secret letter, and open it when you arrive at the martial arts test. It contains my plan, you Just do it, be careful, no second person should know about this matter, after reading it, you must burn it immediately!"

"Okay, I see. Brother, is there anything else?"

"I'm going to Qingxuan Mountain, and there is another important matter to discuss."

"Let me see you off."

"You have your business, go back first. I'll go alone."
