Heroes of the Fantasy World

After the trial, the crown prince Gao Yang went to the palace non-stop to report on his duties that night. On the surface, this matter attacked Empress Gao, but in fact it took away the root of Taipingdao.

The Xianbei witch, the legendary person, the blood of immortality...

Obviously, this is also a top priority that is directly related to the survival of the high-line royal family.

However, it has only been three days since the regent, and the frightened and unstable Empress Gao didn't care about this. All she cared about was whether the Zhongwei General Baifeng had been dealt with as he should.

"Mother..." The crown prince bowed his body and respected each other, standing at the foot of the hall to comfort the people in the tent, "General Baifeng is not an assassin, he saved you from the flames."

The two maids waited beside the white gauze tent with palm-leaf fans held high. Empress Gao recuperated on the couch for a while, but she still didn't seem to wake up.

"I want you to tell me, did he get any punishment?"

The crown prince replied: "My minister came here formally to discuss this matter. Now General Baifeng is still detained in Dali Temple and has not been punished."

"What?" The queen angrily said, "He almost killed me, but you let him go back safe and sound!"

The prince said: "Mother, there is another story about this matter!"

"What's the inside story?" Empress Gao suddenly walked out of the tent, her eyes were foggy and her expression was gloomy: "He is just a mere moth, for my brother's sake, I personally conferred titles on him, Bai Feng not only has no heart. Thank you, you still want to threaten me with your dead brother?!"

Empress Gao angrily kicked over the low table beside her, and the official memorials on the table were scattered all over the floor in an instant.

"Queen, calm down." The maids on the left and right, and the maids waiting in front of the door immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.

"This son has not been cut into pieces, it is already a great tolerance." After Queen Gao finished speaking, the prince pondered and did not answer.

After a while, the emperor arrived, and his voice came first.

"See you, Your Majesty." The maids came in groups of three or four, and they all wanted to go up to greet them.

The emperor said, "Let's all go out."

"Yes." All the maidservants echoed in unison, and the leading aunt, like a water bird on patrol, led a group of youngsters to form a line, and then walked out of the house neatly.

After the gate made of mahogany was gently closed, Empress Gao became even more domineering, calling out Bai Feng by name and saying: "Does the emperor still want to keep this mothfly with a different surname? At the beginning, I gave up all my family business and followed the emperor all the way." , is it just to be insulted by him today!"

The old emperor watched Jiefa's wife shed tears of embarrassment and indignation, and couldn't help lamenting: "Gao Zhu could have personally accepted all this, why did he choose to leave?"

"emperor?"

"It's nothing more than the fear of being liquidated in the future, which will cause the Gao family to suffer catastrophe—his greatest wish is to keep his relatives, or the entire Gao family army, the Gao family army founded by Gao Zhu, originally existed to preserve the Gao family lineage. The old emperor looked at the crown prince Gao Yang, and continued: "In that case, why don't we preserve his bloodline as a favor? Although Gao's army is nominally affiliated to the imperial court, in fact, Gao Ang and Gao Xijun rely on the reputation of the former Beizhen We need this kind of power to calm down the country."

Gao Yang echoed, "Father's words are wonderful!"

"We let Baifeng enjoy the glory and wealth, and at the same time we are gradually restraining his hands and feet, Zhaojun, do you still remember how you entertained your brother?" The old emperor suddenly talked about the past, with a smile on his mouth: "Baifeng and the Xianbei witch There is a close connection between them, Sima Guoshi finally got the 'witch's blood', our Gao clan's eternal dream is about to begin, Zhaojun, how can you ruin a big event because of a moment of anger?"

Empress Gao was at a loss for words for a while, and could only try her best to think of all kinds of sharp accusations to convince the other party: "But... Your Majesty, that Baifeng is really an assassin! If you dare to enter the palace to threaten me today, you will dare to rebel tomorrow!"

"Mother's queen." Gao Yang reiterated again: "General Baifeng is really not an assassin! Mother's queen was overly frightened and made a misjudgment."

"Shut up!" Empress Gao stepped forward and slapped the prince across the face, and said, "Do you dare to disobey your own mother?"

The old emperor was as steady as Mount Tai, and silently reached out his hand to stop Empress Gao, and said, "My heart is like a mirror, and I see everything in my eyes. General Baifeng's 'remonstrance' is a loyal word, so you must pay attention to it. As for offending the emperor, he should be punished." , but the most urgent thing now is the matter of the witch, first find the Xianbei witch, and discuss other matters later. Anyone who wants to falsely say that General Baifeng is an assassin is disrespectful!"

And so, the dust settled.

The crown prince breathed a sigh of relief - after a night's rest, he went to Dali Temple early the next morning to tell Baifeng the good news, without concealing his admiration for the young hero.

He asked the jailer to open the cage and let him in, but the jailer didn't dare, but said, wouldn't it be better to let Bai Feng out?

Gao Yang laughed at himself: "You're right, I was too complacent and almost lost my sense of proportion... If I go in, wouldn't it mean that I'm protecting General Baifeng?"

Amid extremely restrained laughter, Bai Feng dragged the shackles to the interrogation room. There are all kinds of torture instruments here, but none of them will be used on him today.

"You know that Xianbei witch... ah, it's your wife, where was she taken?"

Bai Feng's emotions that had been aroused just now suddenly sank down again, and he replied: "If I knew, would I still believe General Huangfu's words and do such stupid things?"

"Hahaha, that's right." Gao Yang took out the famous snacks he brought, presented them in front of Baifeng, and boasted, "I didn't expect General Baifeng to be a lover..."

"Like me, I also hate Taipingdao!"

"Eh?" Bai Feng just picked up the round and thick meat bun and took a bite, before chewing a few times, he fell silent.

"They are different from you. They have no conscience, and they will do anything for the 'great cause of cultivating immortals'." Gao Yang also picked up a bun and ate it: "If General Baifeng knows the whereabouts of Mrs. Bai, please tell me. If Madam Bai made a mistake, I will make Taiping Dao pay for it!"

Bai Feng swallowed the bun and asked seriously: "His Royal Highness, don't you want to live forever?"

"Hmph! Immortality?" Gao Yang quoted the scriptures and said carefully: "In the past, the first emperor Yingzheng sent Xu Fu to the fairy island in order to seek longevity, and searched for people's fat and people's anointing to build altars and temples. This is an unjust act! With the flesh and blood of the people As the rubble and bricks on the road to immortality, are they really reliable? Those who are unrighteous will be punished by righteousness."

"General Baifeng, I have always sympathized with you."

The young man was eating the meat buns, nodding his head in gratitude, under the humility on his face, he had already found out the prince's tricks.

"Don't you just want to be emperor as soon as possible? If the old man lives forever, you will be the prince forever." (End of this chapter)
