Chapter 372 Visit
He really wanted to meet Her Royal Highness the Eighteenth Princess.

Regardless of whether their methods are thorough and rigorous, just the decisiveness of their actions shows that women are just as capable as men.

Chu Zhiyuan couldn't help but admire how amazing it was.

He has mastered the three secrets of stability, accuracy and ruthlessness.

The assassination was carried out quickly before the night banquet in the palace so as not to embarrass Emperor Dajing.

This way, there is a buffer on both sides, and the situation does not become a huge uproar and a mess.

"You young people..." Chu Qingfeng sighed and said, "You are really different."

If it were me at that time, I would not hesitate to sacrifice my marriage for the sake of the court.

But look at Chu Zhiyuan and then look at Cheng Miaozhen, neither of them is someone who would sacrifice themselves for the court.

Someone who seems quiet may be planning something bad.

One of them took action directly.

There is really no compromise.

I can only sigh that people’s hearts have changed. Today’s young people are completely different from my generation.

"Uncle, how is it different?"

"You only care about yourselves, not the court or the world."

"...That's exactly what Uncle said."

Chu Zhiyuan strongly agreed with this statement.

But there is nothing we can do about it. The situation is different and people’s hearts are naturally different.

"Alas... I didn't expect that the Eighteenth Princess..."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Uncle, you said earlier that Princess Eighteen is a good girl."

"...Alas, I really don't know what to say." Chu Qingfeng smiled bitterly: "I can only say that it's a pity that you didn't marry her home."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Uncle, you made a mistake this time."

"I've made a mistake." Chu Qingfeng shook his head: "She is usually demure, gentle and pleasant, but once something important happens, she becomes a different person. A girl like this is really not to be trifled with."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "After this incident, Dazhen should be able to calm down and stop forcing me... Dazhen insisted on relying on me. Was it Wen Tianya's idea?"

"Hmm——?" Chu Qingfeng frowned.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Knowing that I didn't want to, they insisted on forcing me to marry them, using all means to force me, from Dazhen to Huangye, it seems that they think highly of me and favor me, but in fact, they want to defeat me, right?"

Chu Qingfeng's face turned serious.

He never thought of it that way.

Because I never thought that marrying another woman was a big deal.

After all, as a prince, it is impossible for him to marry only one woman, no matter how beautiful Xiao Ruoling is.

Like Chu Minghou and Bai Ningshuang, their circumstances were special and they were sealed into royal palaces.

Otherwise, Chu Minghou would have at least three women by now.

One main hall and two sides are the basic configuration of a prince's palace.

As a descendant of the Chu family, it is your responsibility to strengthen the Chu family's population. Having a small population is a sin.

The more people there are in the Chu family, the greater the possibility of a genius emerging.

We don't expect everyone to be a genius like Chu Zhiyuan, but people like Chu Zhiting and Chu Zhichuan are also good.

No matter how fertile a woman is, her fertility is limited, and more women are needed.

Therefore, as for the lustful Prince Huai, he was only scolded and warned from time to time, but no one opposed him taking more concubines.

Chu Qingfeng had never thought about it from this perspective because he underestimated Chu Zhiyuan's arrogance and personality.

At this moment, after being reminded by Chu Zhiyuan, he was suddenly shocked and his face became solemn.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Uncle, ask Tianya if he can do such a thing?"

"Too powerful!" Chu Qingfeng snorted while gritting his teeth.

Chu Zhiyuan asked: "Didn't Grandfather have any doubts at all?"

Chu Qingfeng hurriedly said: "My brother may know, so he has been protecting you."

The emperor's wisdom is as vast as the sea. How could Wen Tianya's tricks be hidden from the emperor's brother?

The emperor's brother is most likely...taking advantage of the situation.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "Grandfather Huang was probably fooled. He didn't think about this. He thought Dazhen looked at me differently. After all, when I was not famous, Dazhen wanted to marry the princess to me."

"Impossible." Chu Qingfeng shook his head: "If you can think of it, how could my brother not think of it!"

He flatly denied it.

In his eyes, the emperor was wiser than anyone else in the world.

No matter how wise Chu Zhiyuan is, he is not as wise as the emperor.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "If you really want to know, why did you agree to Dazhen?"

Chu Qingfeng said without hesitation: "My brother should have expected that His Majesty the Eighteenth Prince would act this way."

Chu Zhiyuan laughed.

Chu Qingfeng snorted, "Don't think you're the only one who's smart! You're far inferior to my brother!"

"Okay, okay, Uncle, I want to visit the Eighteenth Princess, is that okay?"

"You--?" Chu Qingfeng murmured.

Chu Zhiyuan's identity is too sensitive now, especially when the wedding has to be cancelled, the relationship between the two is even more awkward.

Under such circumstances, if the two met...

Chu Zhiyuan said, "After hearing that the Eighteenth Princess was assassinated, should I just ignore it? That would be too rude."

Chu Qingfeng asked: "If you are not her future husband, why would you go to visit her?"

Chu Zhiyuan groaned: "How about I go as the Left Minister? After all, I was the one who received her."

Chu Qingfeng said: "I will tell my brother first and see what he says."

"Then we will wait for the Emperor's order."

Chu Zhiyuan clasped his fists towards the Fengtian Hall where the emperor was.

-

Sitting on the bed in Tingtao Courtyard, Chu Zhiyuan put a Phoenix Blood Pill to his mouth, concentrated for a moment, and then swallowed it.

He has always been on guard against Li Hongzhao.

After he no longer sensed danger, he took a Phoenix Blood Pill with peace of mind.

After taking a pill of Phoenix Blood Pill, in the blink of an eye, patterns began to appear on the skin, becoming clearer and more complex, and light passing through it seemed to be real.

Chu Zhiyuan then took another Phoenix Blood Pill to continue improving his scale refining realm.

Just as he was about to take the third pill, Zou Fang whispered outside, "Prince, Chief Steward Huang is here with a message, asking you to go visit the Eighteenth Princess on behalf of the Emperor."

Chu Zhiyuan opened his eyes: "I understand."

The emperor finally agreed.

Chu Qingfeng would definitely convey his words to the emperor.

What I said should work. Since this might be Wen Tianya's conspiracy, why doesn't the emperor change his mind?

-

When Chu Zhiyuan arrived at Sifangguan, the streets of Sifangguan were heavily guarded.

As he walked in, he saw Huang Shirong and the other two girls who were inside.

Huang Shirong clasped his fists from a distance and said nothing more.

Wen Qianqian and Xu Mengyu were also contrary to their usual joy. They had tense faces and clasped their fists towards Chu Zhiyuan without coming over.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled at them and walked without stopping until he arrived outside Dazhen Hall.

A group of guards stood outside the Dazhen Hall, all of them with a solemn and cold expression, and would not allow anyone to approach.

When they saw Chu Zhiyuan and his companions appear, they had no intention of giving way.

Guo Chi snorted, very dissatisfied.

The four of them concentrated their minds, and the formation gathered their strength and pushed it outwards.

Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand.

The twelve guards were being pushed back, but as Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand, they stood firm again, their faces grim and ugly.

Zou Fang opened his mouth and said slowly, "Please tell everyone that the fourth prince of Dajing has come to visit the eighteenth princess on the order of the emperor."

His voice was soft and unhurried, yet it spread steadily and slowly throughout the Dazhen Hall and into everyone's ears, fully demonstrating the master's perfect cultivation.
