Chapter 522 Is this fate?

Emperor Jingde's eyes were deep and dark, burning with rage. His expression remained relatively calm, but the bulging veins on his forehead silently testified to his unease.

He knew it! How could someone with crippled legs travel all over Jiangnan for years? The people he sent either didn't come back or couldn't find him. It turned out that his guess was correct.

Is this fate?

Emperor Jingde closed his eyes helplessly, recalling what the Imperial Astronomical Bureau had said many years ago: his most beloved son was a scourge to the country, who would not only seize his throne but also kill him!

The hall remained silent for a long time. Qi Lang and Fan Zizheng quietly glanced at Yang Jinfan.

They knew more or less about the fact that the Sixth Prince knew kung fu, but they hadn't seen it with their own eyes and weren't sure.

"Send someone to invite the Sixth Prince over."

Yang Jinfan was not surprised. The battle that day was sudden, and Yao Ge's martial arts skills could not be hidden. Even his senior sister would be exposed to everyone's eyes.

But this is for the best. No matter what the outcome, if the disciples trained by Guihun Valley don't have the ability to handle the situation, they can ask to leave the valley on their own.

As always, Feng Yiyao wore a mask to conceal his face, leaving only his captivating peach blossom eyes blooming among the orchids.

What he saw was a filthy world and filthy people. The demon who sat in a high position and killed indiscriminately was actually his father!

He struggled to drive the wheelchair with his hands, and when the attendant behind him tried to push it forward, he stopped him.

Emperor Jingde superimposed his stubborn and arrogant appearance on the figure in his memory. This child was born amidst his and his beloved's high expectations. Xi Lan gave birth to him very well, and he always had the shadow of his mother in him.

Whether it's personality or appearance.

Especially those eyes...

The wooden rollers stopped turning, and the person on the stage snapped out of his thoughts, his eyes regaining their previous cold, ruthless expression.

So what if they are their children?

He has more than one child. His wolfish ambitions and deception are a provocation against him!
"I wonder what brings Your Majesty to summon me here?"

"How's your leg...?"

Feng Yiyao frowned slightly: "Thanks to the Emperor, at least I can still serve as a decoration. However, there are many toxins in my legs, so I'm afraid I won't be able to stand up."

Emperor Jingde ignored his arrogant and sarcastic attitude and just wanted to know how he could learn martial arts despite being crippled in both legs and suffering from multiple poisons.
Or is it that his leg has actually been healed?
A thought of doubt flashed through his mind for a moment, but Emperor Jingde quickly dismissed it. The Imperial Physicians would come to check on the emperor's pulse every so often, and the physician who checked the sixth prince's pulse was someone he had specially arranged; there was no way he would lie to him.

"I heard you know martial arts?"

Feng Yiyao looked up and, after many years of not looking directly at the emperor's face, he finally saw the person in front of him clearly. He chuckled inwardly when he noticed the graying hair in the man's hair.

They thought that now that the other person had the throne, they would be so happy that they couldn't sleep every day, and their energy would be as good as before.

So, we do get old!

"Yes, I know a little."

He answered decisively. Since he had been summoned to the Golden Palace, he could guess what had happened. It must have been that those two scoundrels, Feng Yijin and Shen Caian, had said something in the hall. The emperor was suspicious, so naturally they had pointed the finger at him, the cripple.

Upon hearing Feng Yiyao's answer, Emperor Jingde gritted his teeth, wishing he could immediately draw his sword and kill this rebellious son with his own hands!

The Lu father and son both felt dizzy; Lu Qianhong nearly lost his footing, and Lu Sheng fared no better, instinctively wanting to help his father but restraining himself due to the court's presence. "And what is your relationship with the manager of Zuixianju?"

"She is the one I love, and I am in love with her."

sweetheart?
The sixth prince was raised in the deep palace from a young age and suffered humiliation and framing, which led to his stubborn personality of not liking to see people or talk. Yet, there were people who could catch his eye.

Unbelievable!

Emperor Jingde paused slightly, only then realizing that the child before him, whom he had intentionally neglected, had already reached marriageable age. If Xi Lan were still alive, she would probably have been worrying about the child's marriage long ago.

"Since you are in love with her, why don't you tell me?"

Feng Yiyao chuckled self-deprecatingly, concealing the desolation in his eyes: "How could someone like me be worthy of the bright moon? My legs are already crippled, so there's no need to hold that girl back."

"Why are you unworthy? You are of noble birth, my son, the sixth prince of the Northern Wind Kingdom. Even with your illness, you are still someone many can only dream of. She is just a commoner, so what's wrong with that?"

Feng Yiyao's face flashed with impatience, and he wanted to ask him, "A rat that can't be seen in the gutter is a rat, but a rat hidden deep in the palace isn't a rat?"

He has the title of prince, but he lives worse than a beggar on the street. Who could possibly want to be with him but can never reach him?

"Your Majesty need not concern yourself with my personal matters. You summoned me here to ascertain whether I have deceived the Emperor. Now that you know the answer, proceed!"

Feng Yiyao spread his hands, closed his eyes, and looked completely indifferent, which made people feel suffocated.

"Very well, since you don't care, then I'll grant your wish! Guards, the Sixth Prince has deceived the Emperor and defied the imperial decree by forcibly entering the capital. Send him to the Imperial Prison and execute him on a chosen day!"

The Lu family father and son realized that something was very wrong and quickly slid to their knees in the center of the hall. "Your Majesty, this is absolutely not right! The Sixth Prince was just confused for a moment. Over the years, people in the palace have been fawning on the powerful and bullying the weak. Although the Sixth Prince is a prince, he has no maternal family to protect him and has suffered a lot of bullying."

"He has a physical ailment, and even if he knows some martial arts, it's probably for self-defense. Your Majesty has always been magnanimous, and the Sixth Prince is still young; we can teach him properly!"

Without the protection of a maternal clan?

Emperor Jingde had initially felt a trace of guilt, but now it had vanished. How could such a maternal clan raise an obedient and docile person?

They're all incredibly stubborn; the whole group is defying the emperor. What's the point of keeping them around?

"My dear minister, there's no need to persuade me any further. I cannot tolerate any injustice in my eyes!"

The words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat, and Lu Qianhong almost couldn't breathe.

He had fought with that old guy Song Che for most of his life; they were enemies and friends at the same time. Now, he couldn't even protect the only bloodline of his family. What face would he have to go to the underworld to see the Song family after he passed away?

Some people in the court smiled slightly, relieved that the Song family was still no match for them. Even the only surviving useless prince was on the verge of death, while their Qiao family was rising steadily and enjoying good fortune.

Just thinking about it makes it hard to suppress the smile on my lips.

"Your Majesty, please reconsider. While the Sixth Prince is indeed at fault, it is the rebels who deserve to be punished! The Sixth Prince was merely misled by treacherous people and couldn't distinguish right from wrong, which led him astray. We beg Your Majesty to show mercy and punish the Sixth Prince leniently!"

As for the rebels and traitors, it goes without saying.

Yang Jinfan's lips twitched slightly. Which old man was cursing her?

Looking at him sideways, she saw a cunning-looking old man with an unremarkable appearance. She seemed to remember him; in the official clan information sent by Lanpingxuan, he should be the one who had resigned from office and then rose several ranks after re-entering service.

The person who delivered early spring West Lake Longjing tea to Shen Cai'an!
My darlings, I'll update whenever I have time~
To be honest, this book has taken too long to finish, and it's my first million-word book. Many details were not handled well, and the plot was a bit off track. But as I said before, I will persevere and finish it!
Thank you all for your continued support and love!
