C852 Advising Strategies and Strategies!
At this moment, Gu Ying suddenly stood up and shouted at Old Country Master, "Senior, the Ancient Bone Clan still has some matters to attend to, so I will take my leave."
With that, Gu Ying also left the Universal Hall as fast as he could and disappeared.
Lin Feng looked at Gu Ying's back and wanted to laugh in his heart. The Ancient Bone Clan and the Lunbi Empire had already secretly formed an alliance. It was likely that today's matter was to deal with the two of them playing a double act.
Gu Ying quickly urged the three princes to find a suitable genius, then ignored the other geniuses. After that, Chu Li went out to rope in the neglected genius, and in the end, he also left the Falan Empire.
That's the pattern.
When Old Country Master saw that Gu Ying had also left the Universal Hall, he immediately understood, but it was already too late.
The atmosphere became more and more oppressive, but the Five Experts of Ancient Soul Clan sat calmly on their chairs. Since they had decided on the Falan Empire, they naturally wouldn't change their minds.
Jia Louluo did not mind. This time, he did not get any position from the Ancient Beast Clan. In other words, he could choose the Lunbi Empire or the Falan Empire.
"Little friend Mu Feng, from today onwards, you are a distinguished guest of the empire. You can enter and leave the Imperial Palace as you please without asking for anyone's permission."
The Old Country Master spoke, and at the same time, he fiercely glared at the three princes. These three people had all given their most precious treasures to Mu Feng, but none of them had invited Mu Feng. They were almost pulled away by Chu Li. The old man was very angry about this, so he immediately decided to spend a large sum of money to keep Lin Feng.
Lin Feng looked at the old man in surprise, but he couldn't help but laugh out loud in his heart. Unknowingly, he had obtained the permission of the Old Country Master to enter and leave the palace as he pleased. If that was the case, the possibility of him seeing Yan Ranxue would be much higher. He was confident that he could save Yan Ranxue without alerting anyone.
"Thank you, Senior. Mu Feng is very happy." Lin Feng looked at the old man and said a sentence of thanks in a hypocritical manner.
Old Country Master nodded his head in satisfaction and laughed out loud. He was very happy.
Elder Fa Duo's face was also full of smiles. To be able to keep a genius like Mu Feng, it would only bring benefits to the development of the Falan Empire. He was sure that Mu Feng would break through to the Legendary Realm, which was the Divine Emperor, without any problems. As long as the Falan Empire had a Divine Monarch, it could be said that it could change everything.
Although the banquet ended on bad terms, in reality, the Falan Empire did not lose much. To be able to keep the Five Experts of the Ancient Soul Clan and Jia Louluo, and most importantly, to keep Lin Feng, was the most important thing.
The banquet ended very quickly, and Lin Feng was also left behind in the palace. Elder Fa Duo even personally arranged a luxurious palace for Lin Feng. This palace, including the courtyards and the lotus pond, was as big as half of the prince's mansion.
It was clear how important the Falan Empire was to Lin Feng.
Apart from First Prince and Fa Chun, Second Prince, Fa He, and Fourth Prince all left the palace after being scolded by the Old Country Master.
Jia Louluo and Five Heroes From Ancient Soul Clan were naturally left behind in the Imperial Palace for the time being, but they were not like Lin Feng, walking around the Imperial Palace without telling anyone.
That night, Lin Feng stayed obediently in the great hall that was prepared for him. He did not go out. He was not in a hurry to save Yan Ranxue. Since he had already arrived at the Falan Empire, he did not mind spending a few more days. More importantly, Lin Feng could not let the Falan Empire suspect him and think that his purpose for coming here was not pure.
The next morning, Lin Feng opened the door and took a deep breath of fresh air. The pale yellow sun slowly rose in the sky, and the earth was covered with a layer of golden light.
However, a piece of news that alarmed the royal family also came to the palace as the sun rose. Lin Feng received the news at noon, and of course, everything was under his control.
Fa Xuan's actions were indeed unsatisfactory. In a single night, they had united. All the sons of the frontier had caused a rebellion, and Fa Xuan had appeared in the palace, severely wounded and exhausted.
In the beginning, Old Country Master was extremely angry that Fa Xuan had returned without his permission, but when he found out about everything, his anger turned into a trace of heartache.
The decree lasted until the last moment, but the disciples on the border still revolted. The Sunlight Empire took the opportunity to seize eight hundred miles of land, and the decree led a group of people to fight to the death and hold the land for a thousand miles.
And the fuse for all of this was that the border had not been paid for more than half a year, which made Old Country Master's anger reach an irrefutable level.
By the time Lin Feng arrived at Hidden Dragon Palace, Old Country Master had already lost his temper several times and investigated the matter thoroughly. In the end, he found out about a person that he could not believe the most. When the First Prince, Fa Chun, was in charge of the salary, but in the past six months, Fa Chun did not give any of the royal family's salary to the borderland.
Fa Xuan's injuries had already been treated by the Old Country Master, and Fa Xuan had already been arranged to rest in a certain courtyard. Forget about this matter for the time being, these were the exact words of the Old Country Master.
When Lin Feng arrived at Hidden Dragon Hall, he met the Old Country Master. He did not ask anything about the Dharma Announcement. After all, Lin Feng did not want the Old Country Master to feel that he was biased towards the Dharma Announcement. Lin Feng did not even mention anything about the Dharma Announcement. He only asked questions about the Imperial Palace.
Old Country Master patiently explained the structure of the palace to Lin Feng. Apart from some secret places, Old Country Master did not have much to worry about. He also drew a map for Lin Feng, which included the location of the Cold Palace.
The Cold Palace, in the Falan Empire, was specifically used to lock up some of the royal concubines that were no longer favored, but this was the first time Crown Prince's Wife had been locked up.
Lin Feng told Old Country Master in advance that he might take a stroll. He hoped that the royal family wouldn't mind. Old Country Master naturally had to pretend to be magnanimous.
Lin Feng remembered everything in his mind. After leaving Hidden Dragon Hall, Lin Feng headed east. He passed by an imperial garden, an artificial lake, and then arrived at the Dharma Declaration's resting place.
There was no one here, and it looked rather desolate. It seemed that although the declaration of the Law had attracted the attention of the Old Country Master, it was still not valued. As usual, it did not consider the declaration of the Law as its own prince, just as it had done with the poor.
Walking into the courtyard, Fa Xuan's figure entered Lin Feng's line of sight. When Fa Xuan saw Lin Feng walk in, he immediately stood up with a surprised expression.
"You're here." Fa Xuan looked at Lin Feng with a sincere smile. His face was still a little pale, and his breathing was unstable. His arm was also injured, and it was not light either.
Lin Feng sized up Fa Xuan, and couldn't help but grin: "It seems that you have given up your life."
"Not exactly. I was just doing what I had to do. As for your suggestion, I only followed half of it." Hearing Lin Feng's teasing, Fa Xuan's face was a little embarrassed and apologetic.
Lin Feng was a little surprised as he looked at Fa Xuan, waiting for his next words.
"I did discuss it with my men and prepared to pretend to be ill, but I didn't expect that there would be a traitor among our people, causing the Sunlight Empire to know that our morale was low, so they attacked us at night. Fortunately, we prepared in advance and fought a bloody night with hundreds of our men dead. Less than five hundred of our men escaped, but in the end, we managed to hold the land for a thousand miles."
Speaking up to this point, Fa Xuan's face revealed a hint of heartache. These subordinates were all old friends that he had followed since he was young, yet they were all killed just like that. His heart ached and he was even more furious. The First Prince's scheme had caused the deaths of so many people.
But now, it was obvious that the First Prince was siding with him, so how could this matter end just like that? The Old Country Master did not want to pursue the matter any further. If this continued, the hundreds of people would have died in vain.
Fa Xuan shook his head, unwilling to let the matter end there.
"I want to make it clear to Royal Father that we must seek justice for them." Fa Xuan thought about it for a long time and finally decided that First Prince must pay with his blood.
When Lin Feng heard Fa Xuan's words, he shook his head, which made Fa Xuan a little surprised and puzzled.
"You don't agree?" Fa Xuan looked at Lin Feng and asked.
"Of course. You have already succeeded halfway. Why do you want to destroy your future? You Royal Father can say that he has taken a liking to you and has a good impression of you. If you rush out at this time, it will definitely cause your Royal Father's good impression of you to disappear."
"Hehe, to be honest, if that time comes, it might not be First Prince who will be punished, but you who will be punished."
"You clearly know that the Old Country Master is biased towards the First Prince, yet you still take the initiative to provoke the bottom line that the Old Country Master doesn't want to touch in his heart. It will only have the opposite effect."
Lin Feng analyzed the secrets of the sermon. It was true that the sermon had its merits, but it was impulsive when it came to its own affairs, and its personality was too straightforward. Such a person was not suitable for the royal family.
The scripture listened to Lin Feng's words carefully, but he was still unwilling to give up. How could hundreds of disciples die just like that?
"I understand how you feel, but this is definitely not a showdown. This is just the beginning."
"You had better go to your Royal Father now and ask him to return to the frontier immediately. Although this is a bit risky, you must express that you cannot let the frontier fall so low. You must take back the lost land from the hands of the Sunlight Empire."
"But you can't mention the secrets inside. Only in this way will the Old Country Master value you more and more, and he will even be moved and angry about what happened to you. As long as the anger in his heart towards the First Prince increases, there will be a day when the First Prince will collapse, and you can also rebuild the light, and your subordinates can also rest in peace."
Lin Feng continued to advise and strategize. In fact, these were not difficult schemes, but the teachings were too straightforward, so he could not think of any of them.
When Fa Xuan heard Lin Feng's words, he immediately felt his eyes light up again.
"Thank you. I'll treat you to a drink the next day." As he spoke, Fa Xuan ran out of the courtyard with an excited face and quickly disappeared from Lin Feng's sight.
"You haven't treated me to this meal yet." Lin Feng laughed bitterly. He could only express his helplessness towards a prince like Fa Xuan.
"It seems that our little friend Mu Feng has found a suitable prince."
Suddenly, a playful voice came from behind Lin Feng, causing Lin Feng's expression to change.
Turning around, Lin Feng saw an old man standing behind him and looking at him with a smile.
