A life of two souls traveling through time

As night fell, the banquet was drawing to a close. Yan Zong, slightly drunk, glanced at Hui Feng and Si Yao with a mocking sneer, then put down the wine glass in his hand and sat up straight, his lazy drunken state transformed into his former majesty:

"After three rounds of wine, I have prepared another main course for you all."

Most of the people below were drunk, but they sobered up immediately after hearing the prince's cold and majestic voice, and looked at each other in bewilderment.

Sanxiu looked at Mr. Fan opposite him with a puzzled look, but at this moment Mr. Fan was deliberately avoiding his gaze.

"Serve."

Without waiting for everyone to react, Yu Cheng suddenly appeared next to Yan Zong and shouted. Several men in different clothes, tied with iron chains, were escorted into the banquet by some black-clad guards.

Upon seeing this, Sanxiu lost all interest in the banquet and became immediately furious: I knew this kid had bad intentions!

The officials' faces changed drastically when they saw the prisoners being escorted up in front of them. What was this prince going to do during the New Year?

"Prince, this..." Just as Situ Ting was about to ask, he was interrupted by Sanxiu before he could finish his question:

"Does the prince want to kill people on New Year's Eve? If so, then I will not accompany you at Sanxiu Pharmacy. We doctors only save people, not kill people, and we cannot stand by and watch people die!"

Sanxiu stood up angrily and walked out the door after finishing his words. Xiuming and Siyao followed suit, but several black-clad guards appeared outside the hall and blocked the exit.

"Mr. Sanxiu, don't get me wrong. Today is New Year's Eve, and the New Year will be here in a few hours. There is no need for me to add to the killing at the beginning of the new year." Without waiting for Sanxiu to get angry again, Yan Zong picked up the wine glass on the table and walked down from his high seat. His eagle-like eyes stared at Huifeng, who was still sitting in his original position, as if he was looking at prey.

Following the prince's gaze, everyone nervously looked at Huifeng, who was now shaking all over, with veins bulging on his forehead.

"During the Laba Festival's anti-epidemic ceremony, I was assassinated and poisoned. Fortunately, Mr. Huifeng detoxified me in time. I should be grateful, but when I learned the truth about the assassination, I was puzzled." Yan Zong stood in front of Huifeng and asked in a condescending manner: "Mr. Huifeng, no, to be precise, the former Prince Xuanyao of Feng State, can you help me solve my doubts?"

Everyone was confused at first, but when they heard about the former Fengguo Crown Prince Xuanyao, they were shocked. Especially the officials in Mucheng, led by Situ Ting, broke out in a cold sweat. This Huifeng was actually the former Fengguo Crown Prince? It turned out that he was going to assassinate the Zongwang. There was such a dangerous rebel hidden in Mucheng. It seemed that the Zongwang had already bypassed Mucheng and secretly sent people to thoroughly investigate the assassination.

"Huifeng, what is going on?" The people at Sanxiu Pharmacy had already noticed Huifeng's abnormality. Now upon hearing the truth, Mr. Sanxiu looked at Huifeng at a loss and asked anxiously.

"Master, senior brothers, I appreciate your care for Xuan Yao over the past three years, but I'm sorry, I lied to you and everyone at Sanxiu Pharmacy." Hui Feng felt relieved when his true identity was exposed in public. He sat up, bowed solemnly three times to Mr. Sanxiu and Xiu Ming, and then said calmly.

This sentence is undoubtedly telling everyone that Sanxiu Pharmacy was deceived by him and that they were not his accomplices, and what he did had nothing to do with the people in the pharmacy.

Sanxiu looked at his little disciple, whom he had always been proud of, with grief, and couldn't hold back the tears that burst out of his eyes. Xiuming, who also had red eyes, held tightly to his staggering master. He was heartbroken but could do nothing. His little disciple was a rebellious son and now he had tried to assassinate the prince. Even if the entire Sanxiu Pharmacy was destroyed, he could not be saved.

"Prince Zong, I have failed in my duty and I deserve to die..." Situ Ting, who had already been frightened out of his wits, suddenly knelt down behind Yan Zong and cried out in pain.

When the other officials saw the county magistrate kneeling, they naturally did not dare to stand and knelt down one after another.

Yan Zong said nothing, turned with a cold face and looked at the Mucheng County Magistrate who was kneeling at his feet. At the same time, Huifeng suddenly pulled out the dagger from his sleeve and stabbed Yan Zong in the back.

"Your Highness, be careful!" In the emergency, no one reacted in time. Fortunately, Yu Cheng beside Yan Zong was very vigilant and kicked Huifeng several feet away. Huifeng groaned and spurted out large mouthfuls of blood. The two black-clothed guards quickly controlled him.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" The men who had remained silent since being escorted in finally couldn't help but speak up when they saw Huifeng injured.

Si Yao subconsciously wanted to go forward and help Huifeng up but was stopped in time by Xiuming who was standing beside her. Only then did she realize that Huifeng was a rebel at this moment and anyone who approached him might be suspected of being an accomplice.

“Miss Si Yao is really patient. She can keep silent even when seeing her ally in danger. But it doesn’t matter. After all, it’s all about profit. When disaster strikes, of course you should protect yourself first.” But at this moment, Yan Zong suddenly drew the sword from Yu Cheng's hand, turned around, pointed it at Si Yao and sneered.

Everyone sighed again and cast suspicious looks at Si Yao who was standing frozen in place.

"Your Highness, Sister Yao can't possibly..." Upon seeing this, Arnold rushed forward to plead for Si Yao, but before he could finish his words, he was pulled aside by Yu Cheng.

"What does Prince Zong mean? Si Yao was confused." Yan Zong's cold words and the long knife pointing at her made Si Yao feel as if she had fallen into a deep pool of freezing cold.

“Hahahaha…” Before Yan Zong could speak, Hui Feng, who was lying on the ground, suddenly laughed out loud: “I never thought that the arrogant Zong Wang would resort to such despicable means as framing someone.”

"Are you trying to accuse me?" Yan Zong looked at Si Yao with a smile.

"Yan Zong, the person you want to arrest is me. Si Yao is innocent. After learning that she was recommended to Sanxiu Pharmacy by you, I thought she was your person so I found an excuse to get close to her, trying to find more opportunities to kill you through her!" Hui Feng, who was lying on the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, sat up with difficulty, looked at Si Yao with guilt and continued.

Hui Feng's words made Si Yao even more desperate. It was ridiculous to think that she was being plotted against by two people at the same time without realizing it and yet she thought she was lucky to have met a noble person.

"I don't understand this. You clearly had a good opportunity when I was poisoned. Why didn't you take action?" Yan Zong naturally didn't believe Huifeng's words completely, but he still threw the knife in his hand back to Yu Cheng, and then looked at Huifeng and questioned him.

"I was caught off guard by Si Yao's request to rescue you that day, so you should be grateful to Si Yao." Hui Feng said as he gave Yan Zong a sarcastic smile and continued, "Killing you is indeed my only goal in life, but that night I went to rescue you as Hui Feng from Sanxiu Pharmacy... I didn't want to implicate Sanxiu Pharmacy." He didn't dare to look at the people from Sanxiu Pharmacy, he also knew that his master must be extremely disappointed with his disciple at this moment.

"You don't implicate innocent people. You are responsible at such a young age. You are much better than your useless father." Huifeng's honesty surprised Yan Zong, but he still wanted to kill him.

"Don't curse my father, you bastard, executioner, every undead soul in Feng Kingdom will not let you go!" Hearing his respected father being teased by his enemy, Huifeng instantly pounced towards Yan Zong with a ferocious face, but was held down by the black-clad guards beside him.

"Okay, I'll be waiting." Yan Zong looked at Huifeng with a provocative look and sneered.

"Take him away and keep him under strict guard!" Yu Cheng gave an order, and Huifeng and other accomplices were taken away.
