Da Feng: From copying golden entries to becoming an immortal in the mortal world

Chapter 212, a high-energy chapter: The capital city is once again embroiled in internal strife, a battle for supremacy between two powerful figures! Updated! Read now:

The capital of the Great Feng Dynasty was no longer as prosperous as it once was, but fortunately, most of its people were safe and sound.

However, it went through several battles between extraordinary experts and the destruction of the Dharma body by a first-grade supreme expert.

In particular, nearly 90% of the buildings in the Imperial City, the very heart of Beijing, were reduced to ruins.

Even 30% of the buildings in the inner city were affected, but the outer city escaped large-scale destruction.

But what terrifies the people of Beijing is that December is about to end and the cold winter is approaching in January.

The coldest time of the year is in the twelfth lunar month, when the ice is three feet thick.

Regardless of the dynasty, winter is always a headache for the high-ranking officials of the Great Feng Dynasty, especially now that the entire capital of the Great Feng Dynasty is leaderless.

If we are not careful, hundreds of thousands of the millions of Beijing residents could die or be injured this winter.

"When my father was alive, I was bestowed the title of Crown Prince at a young age!"

"More than twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye!"

"After Father's death, the only one who can inherit the throne is me!"

Crown Prince Yongxing, holding the Emperor's Sword, excitedly stood up from his throne.

His eyes were bloodshot, and his brows furrowed with the rage of a dragon as he questioned the traitors below the Nine Dragon Stairs.

"Since ancient times, rebellion has been a capital offense punishable by the extermination of nine generations of one's family."

"You traitorous subjects, are you sure you want to rebel with the Fourth Prince?!"

"Don't forget, the Imperial Sister and Luo Chen are a match made in heaven by the Emperor."

"This was the imperial marriage bestowed by my late father, standing atop the Star-Picking Tower, in front of all the people of the capital!"

These words immediately amplified their deterrent effect.

But these officers were not so easily fooled; instead, they set their sights on one of the main figures in this struggle for the throne.

—The Fourth Prince.

The usually composed fourth prince no longer concealed his true intentions and directly confronted Crown Prince Yongxing with his sword in public.

"What are you, a worthless coward who borrows the tiger's power?"

"I am the Empress's son, the eldest legitimate son recognized by the Great Feng imperial family!"

"Leaving aside the struggle for the throne between us, just look at how your mother, Consort Chen, has framed and slandered the Empress on numerous occasions over the years."

Do you think there's still room for maneuver between us?

"Moreover, my father went to the northern border and perished, but returned in triumph with 100,000 iron-blooded soldiers."

"One of the Golden Gongs even fought to the death to break through to the third rank of Transcendent!"

"As for the relationship between Luo Chen and Lin An, I don't recall any emotional connection between them from childhood to adulthood."

"To put it bluntly, Lin'an is nothing more than a slightly prettier vase; does she really think she can tether a true dragon soaring through the heavens with just a marriage certificate?"

Speaking of it.

The fourth prince straightened his back, his handsome face filled with pride.

"On the contrary, Huaiqing is exceptionally talented and handsome. He not only befriended Luo Chen in his early years, but also managed the sales channels of the Astronomical Bureau's technical department."

"Which of the high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital, who wanted to acquire the advanced technological products from the Imperial Observatory, didn't require Huaiqing's personal approval for its sales channels?"

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly froze.

Prince Yongxing's face turned ashen, his eyes bloodshot, and he was speechless for a moment.

"If that's the case, then there's nothing more to discuss!"

"Men, come with me to suppress the rebellion!"

In a short while, tens of thousands of imperial guards in golden armor from the capital city surged into the Hall of Supreme Harmony from the square outside the hall.

Yongxing had been the crown prince for over twenty years, and Emperor Yuanjing was obsessed with cultivation.

Except for essential matters, Emperor Yuanjing needed to step forward and weigh the options.

Most matters in the imperial court were handled by the crown prince and his cronies.

The officials in the imperial court, especially the chief minister who was the head of all officials, were practically considered half the crown prince.

Even if, as the Fourth Prince said, he had Wei Yuan backing him up, and also had a good relationship with Luo Chen through kinship.

Even if these ministers wanted to switch sides, they were no longer allowed to.

"Kill the Fourth Prince and suppress the rebellion!"

Crown Prince Yongxing roared and even personally slashed at the Fourth Prince.

As long as the fourth prince is killed, he will be the sole heir to the throne!

The fourth prince was protected in the middle by members of the Da Feng imperial family, facing a large number of imperial guards.

A hint of panic inevitably appeared on his face.

"How could tens of thousands of Imperial Guards possibly be here?!"

"Weren't these people sent to repair buildings in the capital and prepare for the cold disaster relief?"

"Damn it! Yongxing, you dare to disregard the people of the capital for the sake of the throne!"

The fourth prince also drew his longsword and slashed at the Imperial Guards, engaging in a fierce battle to break out of the encirclement.

He added angrily, "Even if you sit on the dragon throne today, do you think you'll still be able to sit securely when your father returns and finds out about this?"

"Don't forget, in Luo Chen's eyes, the lives of officials are worth less than those of ordinary people!"

"Even Father Emperor is fooled by him... If he finds out, even if you hide behind Lin'an every day, you're doomed!"
