Daqian Palace, Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Emperor Qian Lu Zheng was playing with a communication jade slip in his hand, with a look of surprise and relief in his eyes.

"Could it be that this stinky boy really failed to hide his incompetence before, and even I was deceived by him.

I want to see what big surprise you, a stinky boy, can bring me."

He smiled and muttered to himself, and the communication jade slip in his hand turned into powder.

At this time, footsteps were heard outside the hall, and then the voice of the eunuch came in.

"Your Majesty, Prince Yu, Prince Qi, and Prince Wei want to see you!"

Lu Zheng raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and shook his head with a little disappointment: "You are still impatient."

"Let them in."

"Yes!" The eunuch in front of the emperor saluted outside, and after the ceremony, he announced the decree loudly.

"Announce Prince Yu, Prince Qi, and Prince Wei to enter the hall for an audience!"

A moment later, Prince Yu, Prince Qi, and Prince Wei, wearing stone blue python robes, entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony and bowed down in front of the dragon case.

"Your son kowtows to you, father!"

"No need to be polite!"

"Thank you, father!"

After kneeling and bowing, Prince Yu, Prince Qi, and Prince Wei stood up.

The three who stood up looked at each other, and no one wanted to speak first, so they used their eyes to signal each other to speak.

Seeing the three people like this, Lu Zheng, who was already a little disappointed, became even more dissatisfied, and immediately said lightly:

"If there is nothing else, then go back to practice, don't waste time here, and live a short time!"

After saying this, Prince Yu Lu Heng looked at his two younger brothers with a slightly gloomy look, and then clasped his fists and said:

"Father, your son and my two younger brothers came here, in addition to paying respects to you, you also want to ask your father's opinion on something."

Lu Zheng raised his eyebrows and said nothing, but looked at his three sons with a calm expression.

Such an attitude made Lu Heng and the other two extremely nervous.

But thinking of the news they had just received, Lu Heng immediately gritted his teeth, knelt on one knee and said:

"Father, the crown prince is out to take up his post to help you solve your worries and difficulties. Although I am not talented, I also want to share some of your responsibilities."

After Prince Yu Lu Heng finished speaking, Prince Qi Lu Lin and Prince Wei Lu Huan also knelt on one knee and said:

"Your sons are willing to share your worries and difficulties like the crown prince, please grant me your permission!"

Before, they did not take the crown prince Lu Fan who was exiled to the northern border seriously, but he was just a waste.

But with the decree to confer Lu Fan, and after Lu Fan's actions in Pingchuan City, they could not sit still.

They had the same guess as Lu Zheng, and they all felt that Lu Fan was hiding his incompetence before.

Although it was true that Lu Fan could not practice, they still could not stay in the imperial capital calmly.

With their father in the imperial capital, they would never make any big waves.

Everyone was the same before, so it didn't matter.

But now the useless prince is in charge of the position of county governor, has the power of 5,000 personal soldiers, and is in Pingchuan City to punish evil and promote good to win the hearts of the people.

This made them instantly aware of the sense of crisis, and naturally did not want to sit and wait for death in the imperial capital.

"Haha, good, very good... You are thoughtful, and you can take the initiative to think about sharing my worries."

After Lu Zheng said this with a smile, Lu Heng and the other two trembled and said hurriedly:

"Father, sons and ministers..."

"Okay... Since you want to go out, then I will give you a chance."

As soon as these words came out, Lu Heng and the other two looked up suddenly, and an expression of disbelief appeared on their faces.

"Father, you..."

"I will give you half a year, and return to the imperial capital to participate in the Tianjiao Competition after half a year.

If you can shine in the Tianjiao Competition, I will grant you the power to command troops, take charge of your own fiefdoms, and travel freely in the imperial capital."

As these two sentences echoed in the hall, Lu Heng and the other two suddenly became excited and flushed, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.

They didn't expect that the father actually agreed, and even gave them such a promise.

It was completely beyond their expectations.

"Your sons kowtow to thank you, father!" Lu Heng and the other two knelt down and kowtowed to thank you with great excitement.

"Don't be in a hurry to thank you, I haven't told you the consequences of failure yet... If you lose in the Tianjiao Competition, you will stay in the imperial capital honestly and cut off those messy connections!"

At the end, Lu Zheng's face was extremely serious, and the meaning of the knock was self-evident.

Lu Heng and the other two were shocked, knowing that everything they did was under the control of their father, and the ecstasy in their hearts instantly turned into fear.

However, without waiting for them to explain, Lu Zheng waved his hand and said, "Go down, and leave the capital immediately when the decree arrives."

"Your sons obey the order!"

The frightened Lu Chen and the other two kowtowed and saluted, then stood up and walked out of the hall.

Just as the three were about to walk out of the hall, Lu Zheng's voice came again.

"You three, remember this. Daqian is our Lu family's Daqian, and we will never allow outsiders to get involved.

No matter how you fight, the bottom line cannot be touched. This is my advice to you... I also hope that you will not disappoint your father."

After all, it is his own child, Lu Zheng sighed helplessly in his heart.

After hearing this advice, Lu Heng and the other two were shocked and walked out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony with their heads down.

Watching the three people leave, Lu Zheng shook his head and picked up the government jade slips on the table to read.

The three Lu Hengs who walked out looked back at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and their faces showed inexplicably complicated expressions.

None of the three spoke, and they looked at each other and left, like strangers.

...

Qi Wangfu, the front hall.

Lu Jin sat cross-legged on the mat with his eyes closed, practicing with his body surrounded by spiritual energy and blood gushing out of his head.

Zhang Ke walked into the front hall and saw this scene, so he stood by and waited quietly.

After a while, Lu Jin opened his eyes, opened his mouth and exhaled a breath of turbid air, gathered his spiritual energy and blood and stood up.

"What's the situation? Were my three brothers scolded and driven away by my father?"

"Your Highness, His Majesty not only did not scold Prince Yu and the other two, but agreed to their request and allowed them to go to their fiefdom."

Lu Jin, who was originally smiling, suddenly changed his face when he heard this: "What did you say! Did my father...he agreed?"

"Yes, Your Highness, there will be an order soon."

After receiving Zhang Ke's affirmative answer, Lu Jin frowned and walked to the main seat with an uncertain look.

"Tell me in detail."

"Yes, Your Highness!" Zhang Ke nodded respectfully and sat down on one side, and told in detail the news he had just received from the eunuch in front of the emperor.

Lu Fan didn't know anything about what happened in the imperial capital.

After leaving Pingchuan City, the team of more than a hundred people continued to rush towards Hanyang City in the northern border.

In the carriage of the beast cart, Lu Fan sat cross-legged, thinking about how to proceed step by step after arriving in the northern border.

At this moment, the sound of shouting and fighting came from not far ahead, which immediately woke Lu Fan up from his thinking state.

"What's going on? Is there another assassin attack?" Lu Fan frowned, with a puzzled look in his eyes.

Before, he didn't have many people around him, so assassination was fine.

Now he has more than a hundred people around him, and he dares to assassinate, isn't this looking for death?

Just when he was about to ask, Qin Qiong's voice came in first...
