"King Wu is the eldest prince of the Zhou Dynasty, and he does not hold military power, so how can he participate in such a thing?" Sheng Zhiyao looked puzzled.

"Hmph, it's not your turn to comment on this kind of thing." The guard scolded him coldly, then waved his hand: "Arrest him and take him to the Criminal Department for interrogation."

As soon as he finished speaking, the two guards came over with their swords raised.

Feng Yuanchen's quick eyesight and hands quickly pulled Sheng Zhiyao to avoid the attack.

With a "Bang!" sound, an arrow shot into the wall and was nailed to the door panel.

The guard stopped and immediately became alert.

At this moment, more than a dozen guards broke in, quickly occupied a favorable position, and surrounded everyone.

Feng Yuanchen and Sheng Zhiyao looked at each other, and they could see deep thought in each other's eyes.

"The prince has arrived!" Suddenly a loud voice sounded, and then a tall, handsome middle-aged man walked in. ap.

The middle-aged man wears a dark blue brocade robe and a jade belt around his waist, exuding a noble and domineering air.

"My subordinates bow to King Wu." Everyone knelt down on one knee to say goodbye. Their attitude was extremely respectful. Even the two sword-wielding guards gave up chasing Feng Yuanchen and Sheng Zhiyao.

"No courtesy." King Wu nodded slightly, glanced around, and said in a deep voice: "What exactly happened here?"

"Prince Wu, there is a group of thieves lurking nearby, trying to murder the prince." The guard from before replied respectfully.

King Wu squinted his eyes and glanced at Feng Yuanchen beside him, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.

"Uncle Huang, what a huge battle, allowing the imperial army to arrest suspects at will on the streets of the capital?" Feng Yuanchen snorted coldly, raising his feet and walking out.

"It turns out it's Yuan Chen!" King Wu laughed, stared at Feng Yuanchen with stern eyes, and said slowly: "What are you talking about Yuan Chen? How dare I let the imperial army roam the streets of the capital?"

Feng Yuanchen paused, looked sideways at King Wu, and said lightly: "Then I wonder why King Wu is acting like this?"

King Wu raised his eyebrows and wrote lightly: "Of course it's to arrest the assassin."

"Assassin?" Feng Yuanchen raised his lips and smiled, as if he had heard something interesting, and chuckled: "If he was an assassin, King Wu would probably be dead by now."

"Oh?" King Wu frowned slightly.

Feng Yuanchen continued to smile and said: "These guards just thought that this lady was an assassin, so they came to rescue her. Moreover, this lady has an old father and a young child. They said she was an assassin. I'm afraid she doesn't have eyes.

!」

As soon as these words came out, low laughter suddenly sounded in the surroundings, but due to King Wu's intimidation, they did not dare to laugh too obviously. They suppressed their faces and turned red, which was very funny.

"Oh? Is there such a thing?" King Wu's face was extremely ugly, and he turned to look at the guard on the side, a cold light suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"King Wu, I am humble..." The two guards panicked and fell to their knees with a plop.

When Feng Yuanchen saw this, he shook his head without any trace, a trace of sarcasm flashed in his eyes.

"You bastard!" King Wu shouted angrily, pointing at the guards kneeling on the ground. He then tore off his cloak and threw it on the ground, kicking one of them over.

"Pah! Pah!" Two crisp slaps sounded, and both guards' cheeks were swollen.

"Trash! They are all a bunch of trash!" King Wu gritted his teeth and glared at the two guards, "Is this what Qin Yi taught you? Don't you do things without any brains?"

The two guards were beaten so hard that they felt dizzy, but they still adhered to their duties.

"King Wu, please calm down." The captain of the guard endured the fear rising in his heart and said bravely: "I am willing to risk my life to protect you. This time I am definitely not delinquent and derelict in my duty."

"Oh, so I made the mistake of blaming you?" King Wu raised his eyebrows, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.

When the captain of the guard heard this, beads of sweat broke out on his forehead, but he did not dare to speak.

"Hmph!" King Wu sneered and said disdainfully: "You two dog slaves have been following Qin Yi for many years, but you are still so stupid. It's like your clothes are all in vain."

"I will obey King Wu's order. I will take the people away right now." The captain gritted his teeth and said immediately.

He winked at the other guards.

Seeing this, the remaining guards nodded and then ran away.

Feng Yuanchen had a slight smile on his lips, watching the changes.

"Huh!" King Wu snorted heavily, and then looked at Sheng Zhiyao: "The little princess is frightened."

"Thank you King Wu for your concern." Sheng Zhiyao felt blessed and replied indifferently.

King Wu's face stiffened, and then he laughed dryly and said: "Young princess, there is no need to restrain yourself. After all, my father never asked you to salute, let alone me."

After saying that, King Wu turned to look at Feng Yuanchen who was standing aside: "Yuanchen, are you accompanying the princess to have dinner today?"

"Exactly." Feng Yuanchen cupped his hands and said, "I didn't expect that Uncle Huang happened to catch up."

"Since we have met, why not come together?" King Wu invited.

Feng Yuanchen shook his head: "Zhiyao and I have finished eating. Let's have dinner with Uncle Huang tomorrow." After saying that, he said to Sheng Zhiyao who was standing aside: "Zhiyao, let's go!"

"Yeah." Sheng Zhiyao responded and walked out first.

Feng Yuanchen followed closely behind.

"Stop!" King Wu shouted, a stern look flashed in his eyes.

Feng Yuanchen didn't stop and asked: "Uncle Huang, what else can I do?"

A trace of anger appeared on King Wu's face, but it quickly dissipated.

"I have a few words to say to you. Can we find a secluded place to chat?"

Sheng Zhiyao frowned, turned to look at Feng Yuanchen, but stopped talking.

"Don't worry!" Feng Yuanchen smiled at Sheng Zhiyao: "Wait for me here first."

"Oh!" Sheng Zhiyao responded dully, turned around and left.

Seeing Sheng Zhiyao leaving, Feng Yuanchen stopped his smile and said calmly: "Uncle Huang, please tell me if you have anything to do!"

"Haha, Yuan Chen is indeed a cheerful person." King Wu chuckled, and then said seriously: "Yuan Chen, do you still remember that year when your grandfather's house was ransacked?"

"Yeah." Feng Yuanchen responded lightly without denying it.

Back then, his mother-in-law was forced to death by his aunt, the Qi family, and his grandfather was also investigated by Prime Minister Qi on trumped-up charges, which implicated the entire family and had their homes confiscated. The person who dealt with it was none other than the eldest prince, Feng Chongwu.

King Wu sighed and said with regret, "It's a pity, it's a pity. I was young and frivolous at the time and didn't understand politics, so I was taken advantage of by Prime Minister Qi, which eventually led to a tragedy."

"Yuan Chen understands." Feng Yuanchen nodded.

King Wu sighed and said with a hint of regret: "Although your father Feng Chongjun is my brother, I have always treated you well over the years. I hope you can understand my difficulties."

After Feng Yuanchen was silent for a moment, he slowly said: "Yuan Chen understands."
