The whole world is cultivating qi, only I am cultivating the body

The civil servant walked out of the tent in a daze. He knew that if Xin Wenyuan could withstand the attack of the other four princes, he would probably never be able to enter the core in the future. He was thankful that he could still stay with Xin Wenyuan.

Watching the civil servant leave, Xin Wenyuan called the prince's guard who was guarding outside the tent into the tent and whispered a few words in the prince's guard's ear. The prince's guard nodded and left, and soon disappeared.

The barrier above the heads of the people in the square no longer broke with the blessing of a large number of spirit stones. Looking at the stabilized barrier, the originally somewhat turbulent mood of the poor people in the square also stabilized. They were afraid that Xin Wenyuan would abandon them, but now it seems that they are lucky, and the prince did not abandon them.

The sky was getting darker and darker, and even the barrier that had been stabilized again was half buried by the snowflakes in the sky. The consumption of spirit stones used to maintain the stability of the barrier was increasing, and Xin Wenyuan had fewer and fewer spirit stones in his hands, and they were about to run out.

Listening to the news reported, Xin Wenyuan kept calculating how long the spirit stones he brought could last. But after he finished calculating, he found that the barrier above his head might only last for an hour. By then, he would have to reduce the supply of spirit stones. Once the supply of spirit stones was reduced, the barrier above his head would leak wind and snow, and the temperature here would become lower and lower, and where the snowflakes fell...

Thinking of this, Xin Wenyuan couldn't help but sigh. He also wanted to protect everyone in the barrier, and he didn't want anyone to be injured or killed. However, he didn't have enough spirit stones, and he had no way to protect everyone. Just as Xin Wenyuan sighed, someone suddenly broke into his tent without being summoned.

It was Commander Zhao who broke into the tent. He had an anxious look on his face. "Your Highness, there are a lot of soldiers around us, and I also saw the city guards and the Imperial Guards. It seems that they are all coming for you. We can fight against ordinary soldiers and city guards, but we can only hold out for a while against the Imperial Guards protecting the inner city. Your Highness, please take the Crown Princess and the others and go first. We will block the Imperial Guards and the city guards for you from behind!"

Looking at Commander Zhao who was full of anxiety, Xin Wenyuan slowly sat down on the chair: "Run? Where can we run to? We are surrounded by the city guards and the imperial guards. After we leave the barrier, the spiritual energy in our bodies will be stagnant because of the snowflakes. There is also heavy snow around the imperial city. Where can we run to?"

"Your Highness! Let's go, Your Highness! We are willing to sacrifice our lives to help Your Highness tear open a gap. As long as Your Highness leaves, even if all of our Prince's Guards die, we will have no regrets!"

Xin Wenyuan looked at Commander Zhao steadily. He knew Commander Zhao was not joking and would die for him if he said so. But he didn't want to leave. He had followed the new emperor in battles for so many years and now had to guard against his younger brothers after being confined to his house. This kind of life was too tiring for him and he didn't want to continue living like this.

"Alright Commander Zhao, I know you're doing this for my own good, but I can't run away this time. You've been by my side since I followed my father into battle. You've always been there to cover my retreat and saved me from danger countless times. I've long considered you a brother, and now you're trying to persuade me to leave? I really don't want to leave now. Instead of running away, why don't we fight to our heart's content, even if we die here!"

"Your Highness! It doesn't matter to us, but Your Highness, you are worth a lot of money..."

"Commander Zhao! I was not born into my current position. My father led his troops from a poor peasant to the current emperor of the Great New Kingdom! How can I be superior to others? Where did I get the body of a millionaire you mentioned? So stop trying to persuade me!"

"..." Commander Zhao looked at Xin Wenyuan sitting in his seat in silence. Seeing the resolute look on Xin Wenyuan's face, Commander Zhao finally sighed softly, "Alas, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has made such a decision, how can we hold His Royal Highness the Crown Prince back! The Crown Prince's Guard will do its best to protect the Crown Prince. No matter how many people come today, if they want to touch the Crown Prince, they must first step on the corpse of the Crown Prince's Guard!"

"Commander Zhao, that's not right. I will fight with you! I want to let the Third Brothers know that I, Xin Wenyuan, fought my way out of a sea of ​​blood and corpses! Princes like them who were born in peaceful times cannot compare to me!" At this point, Xin Wenyuan drew the sword from his waist. "My sword is still sharp. I refused to draw it before because I didn't want the blood of my new country's soldiers and civilians to stain my sword, and because I didn't want to stain the blood of my loved ones. But now that they have forced me to this point, I will no longer hide my edge!"

"Your Highness! We are willing to follow Your Highness into battle and to die with Your Highness!"

"Pass the order! Sound the war drums! Everyone put on armor! If one person from the East Palace retreats, he will be killed! If everyone retreats, then all those who retreat will be killed!"

"Yes!"

Commander Zhao took the order and left Xin Wenyuan's tent. After a while, the sound of war drums rang out from outside the tent. As the sound of the war drums became louder and louder, Xin Wenyuan walked out of his tent. He looked at the Prince's Guards who had gathered in the square, and at the Crown Princess Youruo who was wearing armor next to them, and he laughed out loud.

"It just so happens that the New Country is facing a powerful enemy. My father is personally fighting the enemy outside, but there are people in the Imperial City who want to cause chaos. The Eastern Palace naturally has the responsibility to quell the rebellion. As the crown prince, I should naturally rush to the front without any hesitation." Xin Wenyuan raised the sword in his hand. "Now the Imperial City Defense and the Imperial Guards are participating in the rebellion. All the people in the Eastern Palace will follow me to kill them all! Wherever the sword points, it will be invincible!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!..."

A murderous intent emanated from the Prince's guards, all of whom shouted "kill". Then they followed the prince to the border of the barrier and looked coldly at the soldiers outside the barrier.

"I didn't expect that the Crown Prince would have such courage?" Zeng Wenyu looked at Xin Wenyuan who was with the Crown Prince's Guards, "Xiang Lan, if your elder brother has such courage, why was he still confined by your father?"

"That... I don't know either. As far as I can remember, the Crown Prince has always been a very gentle person. But I once heard from an old man in the palace that the Crown Prince fought his way out of the battlefield with my father, so..."

"Is that so? That's correct. Anyone who can survive the battlefield is definitely not a simple person." Zeng Wenyu turned to look at Mu Zhi. "What do you think, Sister Mu Zhi? Can you help me?"

"Okay, then I'll help. My first impression of this Crown Prince is quite good. Xiang Lan, you can also participate in the next battle. Now that you have taken action, you must completely suppress all the negative voices!"

After the three people finished talking, Zeng Wenyu's figure disappeared first. Then Mu Zhi waved his hand, and a faint pink color began to spread quietly among the soldiers outside the barrier. Then there was a loud roar, and a black dragon beast suddenly appeared.
