Chapter 399: So afraid!

Tang Fei knew the purpose of Zhong Tianque asking him to come here, and he naturally had an answer in his mind.

He repeated the version of the story he told Yan Wenli, then looked at Zhong Tianque with a firm look and said, "I'm not sure whether there will be a war, but I think the military minister will not be able to swallow this breath, so he will definitely seek revenge from other places."

"Shen Wuxiang has entered the palace." Zhong Tianque felt the need to share the latest information with his confidants, and said aloud: "He challenged the king to a war on the grounds that the Lu family was barbaric in resisting the law and intended treason, and he was determined to raze Luban Mountain to the ground."

Intent on treason?

Tang Fei sneered in his heart.

Anyone they want to kill will be charged with such a serious and heinous crime.

This is true for the Tang family and also for the Lu family.

Because only such a crime can kill and destroy such a large family that has made countless contributions to the country and the people.

Only with such charges, when they are killed, there will not be any backlash but instead there will be cheers from the people.

Tang Fei looked at Zhong Tianque in astonishment, and said incredulously: "The king agreed?"

"He made the request in the name of the Military Commission, saying that it was the result of a discussion among all members of the Military Commission, and that it was difficult for him to refuse even if it was his father."

"Such a big thing. Isn't the impact too bad?"

"The Lu family has been caught by them in this matter. Shen Wuxiang is now holding high the banner of justice, so naturally he wants to remove this thorn in his side."

"Why does Military Minister Shen Wuxiang hate the Lu family so much?"

"Hehe, where there are interests, there will naturally be conflicts. The nine major families were united in fighting against the royal family, but as independent individuals, they fought against each other, biting each other and fighting to the death."

"What's more, the Shen and Lu families have been at odds for a long time. When the Shen family put down the rebellion and killed the Tang family traitors, the Lu family made trouble for them."

Tang Fei felt extremely uncomfortable, his heart felt like it was being stabbed with a knife.

The Tang clan they were talking about was their own Tang family.
The parents hugged each other tightly in the fire, and the baby in their arms.
I woke up from my sleep countless times because of the burning fire and the crying baby.

Not only were their bodies destroyed, but their reputations were also dragged out and whipped from time to time.

Traitor, traitor, conspirator, careerist
A general with brilliant military achievements ended up dead and his clan was destroyed, bearing the infamy for generations. Is there still justice? Is there still law?

There must always be a place to reason, and there must always be someone who can explain the truth clearly.

We must tell the world that Tang Li is not a traitor, he is a hero.

"Come to think of it, Director Tang's surname is also Tang." Qian Taian added at the right time with a sinister smile.

"."

Tang Fei was filled with hatred and thought, sooner or later I will chop off your head.

Zhong Tianque then remembered that Tang Fei also had the last name Tang, so he smiled and explained, "I'm talking about Tang Li from 20 years ago. He commanded the three armies, was arrogant and domineering, did whatever he wanted, and even ignored the royal family. Although you all have the last name Tang, this has nothing to do with you."

"How can I get involved with such a person?" Tang Fei quickly expressed his true feelings and said with a smile: "Such a traitor who has no king, no country, and no respect for his superiors deserves to die."

Zhong Tianque nodded, very satisfied with Tang Fei's attitude, and said: "The Shen family has always felt that the Tang family has not been completely eliminated. The descendants of the direct lineage generals who depended on the Tang family fled in large numbers because the Lu family provided them with convenience."

"So, the two families have been fighting each other for years. One is in charge of the army, while the other controls the core technology. It's not easy to deal with them."

"However, the Lu family has fallen behind in recent years, and there are almost no big names in the military and political fields. Even if the royal family wants to use the Lu family, they will not have an easy life with the interference of the Shen family and several other families."

"It is only with the support of Lu Dongsheng that we are able to properly make our voice heard in the center of imperial power."

"Luckily, their technology is really good and Luban Mountain is a mysterious place, so no one really wants to fight with them."

"If that's the case, why does Shen Wuxiang want to declare war on the Lu family now?" Tang Fei asked pretending to be puzzled.

"Who knows?" Zhong Tianque's eyes wandered, and he was obviously unwilling to discuss this issue in depth with Tang Fei. "Maybe they can't wait any longer?"

"Who should we support then?" asked Tang Fei.

"Sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight." Zhong Tianque said with a smile: "For the royal family, a wounded tiger is a good tiger."

"Yes, I understand."

Zhong Tianque looked at Tang Fei and said meaningfully, "I heard that you have a good relationship with the young lady of the Lu family?"

Tang Fei looked at a loss for words and said, "Teacher Sheng asked me this question just now, and I told her what the military minister said."

"Oh? What did the Prime Minister say?"

"The military minister said that in the face of family interests, things between men and women are not worth mentioning at all."

Zhong Tianque laughed loudly and said, "The military minister hit the nail on the head. He is a wonderful person."

Tang Fei also smiled.

He knew that Zhong Tianque was still doubting him.

At this moment, a confidential secretary walked over quickly and said, "Your Highness, Shen Wuxiang has sent people to surround Luban Mountain."

唯！
Zhong Tianque's eyes lit up and he stood up suddenly.

“A fight really broke out.”
-
Zhong Tianyi walked to the entrance of Taiji Hall, looked at Chen Fenglei and asked, "Manager Chen, is the king in there?"

"Your Highness, the king is looking at some information inside." Chen Fenglei said with a smile.

"Could you please inform him that I need to see him for something?"

"I'll go ask for His Highness." Chen Fenglei said with a smile, "I don't know if it will work or not." "Thank you, Chief Steward Chen."

"Your Highness, please don't say that. This is the duty of us servants." Chen Fenglei bowed slightly, then turned and entered the hall.

Soon, Chen Fenglei came out and said with a smile: "Your Highness, the King invites you in."

"Thank you, Mr. Chen." Zhong Tianyi said humbly and politely.

"Your Highness, please come in."

The two smiled at each other, and Zhong Tianyi stepped into the Tai Chi Hall.

Ever since he was imprisoned, he no longer went out and rarely had the opportunity to come to the Tai Chi Hall.

Even though the Phoenix Palace is my home since I was a child, there are some places that require permission to enter.

For example, the Taiji Hall where the national host presides over the ceremony and rests.

Zhong Daolong was sitting at his desk reviewing documents, as if he didn't hear the footsteps outside.

Zhong Tianyi walked to his side quietly and called softly, "Father."

Zhong Daolong took off his glasses and said with a smile, "Is God's will here?"

"I came to see you." While speaking, Zhong Tianyi took the initiative to pick up the teapot on the table and poured him a cup of tea.

"Chen Fenglei said you wanted to talk to me about something, what is it?"

"I heard that the Shen family and the Lu family are having some unpleasant things. I'm afraid that your father will be upset, so I came here to see if there is anything I can do to help you."

Zhong Daolong laughed loudly and said, "It's good that you have this thought. If they want to make trouble, let them make trouble. If it rains, my mother wants to get married, let them do as they please."

"So why don't we do something?"

"Don't worry, I'll have someone keep an eye on it, nothing bad will happen."

"Father is always at the forefront of the situation and is always victorious from afar."

"Are you here to flatter me?" Zhong Daolong seemed to be in a good mood, not affected by the outside world. He said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen. Phoenix has been established for hundreds of years. What kind of storms have they not experienced? What's the big deal about this little thing?"

After a pause, he asked again, "How have you been reflecting on your recent awakening?"

"Father, I think a person should do things according to his ability. I want to start my own sports car club and tennis team. If possible, I hope I can become a racing driver or a tennis player."

"Well, now that you've thought of it, let's do it." Zhong Daolong said, "Go out more when you have nothing to do. Staying in the small yard all day will make even a good person sick."

"Thank you, father." Zhong Tianyi was ecstatic, he knew that his father had lifted the ban on his confinement.

Zhong Daolong waved his hand and said, "Okay, go and have fun. I have a few documents to look at."

"Yes, father. You should also take care of yourself and don't get tired."

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

After Zhong Tianyi left, Chen Fenglei walked in quietly.

"The second brother wants to share my worries. Do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?"

"Of course it's a good thing." Chen Fenglei responded without hesitation: "The Second Prince is worried about the King and wants to serve his father. He is a filial child."

"It's a good thing, but also a bad thing. It depends on how you look at it." Zhong Daolong fiddled with the electronic pen in his hand and said, "The fact that he took the initiative to come here proves that he is selfless. If he was still interested in that position, he wouldn't show it so obviously."

"What's the bad thing?"

"If he is still interested in that position, he came here to ask for military power and to test my attitude towards him."

"."

Chen Fenglei didn't dare to respond.

Everything has two sides. Which side do you see?
Zhong Daolong glanced at the tea that Zhong Tianyi had just added for him and said, "The tea is cold. Let's change it to a hot cup."

Chen Fenglei's heart trembled, and he quickly picked up the teacup and said, "Okay, I'll go get another cup."

It is said that serving a king is like serving a tiger, but a king is much scarier than a tiger.

If you encounter a tiger, just beat it to death with your fists.

However, when encountering a monarch, one can only be cautious.

It's chilling to see such fear between father and son.
-
Luban Mountain.

The leader of the Fire Fox Brigade, Zhao Wenxuan, looked up at the dark and deep mountain in front of him, which seemed to be hidden in a black veil. He waved his hand and shouted, "Go into the mountain."

Rumble!
In the sky, the stars are shining.

Countless artillery shells were fired towards the heart of Luban Mountain.

On the ground, the chariots roared.

Hundreds of shark tanks advanced towards the tunnel entrance.

The Phoenix Empire had been at peace for eighteen years when a local war broke out like thunder throughout the human world.
