I, the villainous eldest prince, will suppress everything!

It's no wonder that Emperor Xuan couldn't hide the anger in his eyes; it's because Emperor Xuan had long seen the discord between the brothers Qin Li and Qin Feng, having noticed it as early as the court meeting when the two brothers argued over who should go to the border.

Therefore, even if he had to break his promise this time, he would still change the imperial edict he had issued before and make an exception to send Qin Feng to the border.

The purpose was to incite infighting between the two brothers, and to have Qin Feng deliberately sabotage Qin Li's campaign at the border.

Who would have thought that one of the two coffins Qin Li had Wang Hu bring was actually Qin Feng's.

What does this mean? It means that the brothers' discord was a pretense, and that they had been putting on an act all along!

Qin Feng lied to him!

good good!

Emperor Xuan was so angry that he laughed instead.

He even dared to lie to Qin Feng!

He remembered!

He will remember this painful day of betrayal forever!

Seeing that Emperor Xuan was getting angrier and angrier at him, Qin Feng became anxious.

But there was nothing they could do; they couldn't just deny it outright.

If they really did that, Emperor Xuan's anger would not lessen in the slightest; instead, it would cause even more gossip among the officials, making it a thankless and arduous task.

Therefore, Qin Feng had no choice but to admit it publicly, forcing himself to clasp his hands and say, "Your Majesty, there is indeed one of these two coffins containing my own flesh!"

"Your subject is willing to follow my elder brother. If we cannot win this battle, I am willing to die for my country!"

Upon hearing Qin Feng's words, Emperor Xuan was furious. He gripped the pure gold dragon throne's armrests with both hands until they were almost deformed.

In a fit of anger.

Emperor Xuan was still terrified!

Needless to say, all of this was Qin Li's scheme.

Qin Feng was just a pawn in this game.

Qin Li actually has such a ruthless and vicious scheme!

As the emperor, he failed to see through it from beginning to end this time.

Is this still available?

If Qin Li were to return victorious from the border...

Don't say that the position of Crown Prince belongs to Qin Li.

It seems that the dragon throne beneath his buttocks now belongs to Qin Li.

Realizing that the Xuan Emperor had completely misunderstood him and regarded him as an enemy from then on, Qin Feng cried out in his heart that he was wronged and could not defend himself.

Qin Li was the one who started all of this. Qin Feng couldn't help but turn his head and glare fiercely at Qin Li beside him, even having the urge to kill him.

"Seventh Brother, what kind of look is that?"

Qin Li asked the question knowingly, a slight smile playing on his lips.

But inwardly, I couldn't help but sigh:

Little brother, you've been tricked, haven't you?

You're still too green to fight me, your older brother.

Since things have already escalated to this point.

Then let's make you even more wronged.

Thinking of this, the next moment, under the gaze of Emperor Xuan and all the civil and military officials, Qin Li put one arm around Qin Feng's shoulder, raised the other hand in a fist, and shouted in a booming voice:

As the saying goes, "When brothers are of one mind, their strength can break metal!"

"Today, my brother and I will lead this army in coffins, and we will not return until victory is achieved! Great Zhou will surely triumph!"

For a long time after Qin Li finished speaking, the city gate was completely silent; you could hear a pin drop.

But soon, someone in the crowd echoed this sentiment and raised their fist:

"We will not return until we win; Great Zhou will surely triumph!"

With one person taking the lead, the others gradually clenched their fists and began shouting, "We will not return until we win! Great Zhou will surely prevail!"

"We will not return until we win; the Great Zhou will surely prevail..."

As time went on, more and more people joined the ranks of those clenching their fists and shouting.

Not only did the sound get louder, but it also became more and more synchronized.

The voices of countless people converged into one, soaring straight to the sky!

Especially among the generals and soldiers present, their morale soared higher and higher with each shout.

Before even heading to the border to fight the Northern Barbarians, they seemed to see the dawn of victory right before their eyes.

In the end, even Emperor Xuan on the imperial carriage was moved and thought that winning this battle might not be impossible.

But soon, Emperor Xuan shook his head and came to his senses. In the end, reason prevailed over emotion!

This battle cannot be won, absolutely cannot be won!

If he wins, he'll have to hand over his throne to someone else!

Thinking of this, Emperor Xuan stood up from the Dragon Throne Mountain and pressed his hand down towards the overwhelming, orderly roar of the surroundings.

After the sound gradually subsided, Emperor Xuan couldn't help but glare fiercely at Qin Feng!

Although Qin Li was the mastermind behind all of this, logically he should be the one hating Qin Li.

But over the years, this emperor has been defeated by Qin Li more than once or twice.

This time, he didn't hate Qin Li as much; this time, it was just Qin Li performing as usual.

Right now, the Emperor Xuan hates his youngest son, Qin Feng, the most!

He even felt indebted to his youngest son.

Not only was he granted a residence, but he was also betrothed to Hongying, a female guard from the Jiangmen Tiger Guard.

This is how Qin Feng repaid him!

They accept his benefits on one hand, and oppose him on the other.

This boy deserves to die! He deserves to die!!!

Sensing the murderous intent in Xuan Di's eyes, Qin Feng's face twitched twice, not understanding why things had developed to this point.

He was clearly very grateful to Emperor Xuan for giving him the opportunity to go to the border!

He also knew that over the years, Emperor Xuan, as the father, had been no match for Qin Li, the son.

He planned to work diligently at the border for a few years, develop his own power, and then wait for an opportunity to return to the capital, help Emperor Xuan eliminate Qin Li, and repay Emperor Xuan's kindness.

Who knew that now the Xuan Emperor was even thinking of killing him!

Just then, Emperor Xuan spoke, saying to the crowd, "I am deeply gratified, I am truly gratified!"

"I am not only the Emperor of the Great Zhou, but also an ordinary father to our Great Zhou!"

"The border is in dire need of attention, and the Northern Barbarians are coming on strong. Do the First Prince and the Seventh Prince, who are my two sons, have the confidence and ambition to defeat the Northern Barbarians?"

"As the emperor, I am gratified for these two ministers; as their father, I am even more proud of these two sons!"

"Someone come here!"

At a command, someone quickly brought over two imperial horses, one black and one white, with glossy coats.

Emperor Xuan stepped down from his imperial carriage, took the reins of the two horses, and personally handed one horse to each of the Qin brothers, Qin Li and Qin Feng.

"These two imperial horses were purchased by me from Persia at great expense. They are exceptional Akhal-Teke horses, capable of traveling a hundred miles a day!"

"Now, I bestow these upon you two, hoping that with their assistance, you brothers will be divinely aided and victorious in every battle on the frontier!"

"Thank you, Father Emperor!"

The two of them thanked the person together, thinking it wouldn't be a waste not to accept the favor.

"Seventh Prince, you are the one I worry about the most."

Emperor Xuan walked up to Qin Feng, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "You have been weak since childhood, never handled swords or spears, and never been on the battlefield. In fact, your best destiny is to stay in the capital and be a leisurely prince. You proved this a few days ago."

"I have been reading those three poems frequently these past few days and I am filled with admiration. My son truly deserves the title of 'Poet Immortal'!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng was visibly taken aback.

Those three poems?

Which three poems?

The Poet Immortal?

What poet immortal?

What was the Xuan Emperor saying? Why couldn't he understand?

Beside him, Qin Li tried to keep a straight face and be serious, but he couldn't hold back his laughter and almost burst out laughing.

Qin Feng, of course, couldn't understand what the Emperor Xuan was saying, because he had no idea what had happened at Tianxiang Tower a few days ago, nor did he know that the name of the Seventh Prince Qin Feng was already a household name in the capital.

Since his confinement period had not yet expired, Qin Feng was locked up in his mansion again after returning from Jiuyi Mountain, until today when he went on the expedition.

Under Qin Li's deliberate manipulation, Qin Feng, who was imprisoned, was like a deaf person, like a blind person, and no news could reach his ears.
