Dachun came to deliver food and wine just in time for his return
Lin Jiufeng's.
He did not know that Lin Jiufeng had come out. He delivered the items as usual and started to tell Lin Jinfeng about some things
what happened in the imperial capital.
"Something big happened in the imperial capital
in the last few days. Is Your Majesty
heard it?" ask Dachun.
"You are my only source of news, from
who else can I hear?" Lin Jinfeng's
shaking his head.
"Nine Great Martial Sapons joined in
to come to the Forbidden City to kill Emperor Yuan so that he would stop trying to get rid of the followers ..."
"But they were killed by a mysterious man with a sword attack that shocked the world." Dachun clicked his tongue, envious of the strength the mysterious man showed.
How impressive is that?
He beheaded nine Martial Sage with just a single sword blow.
It was just an eye opener.
Lin Jiufeng drank her wine and ate meat while listening to Dachun.
He smiled calmly without saying much.
Other than Emperor Yuan and Lin Tianyuan, who else knew that Lin Jiufeng was the person behind the scenes? Even the Dachun who spoke the most with Lin Jiufeng would never have guessed that the mysterious man was Lin Jiufeng.
He knew that Lin Jiufeng had a subordinate Martial Sage.
But he also knew that he gave the subordinate to Emperor Yuan.
After Dachun told Lin Jiufeng all
all he knows is, he continues. "It seems like Emperor Yuan is on the verge of death. He had chosen his successor, and he made his decision known to the world."
Lin Jinfeng said nothing. He knows that too.
Lin Tianyuan's.
"It was not some prince that everyone kept talking about, but an illegitimate son who joined the court as a court official. Emperor Yuan actually made an exception and promoted him to a member of the royal family and directly appointed him as the next emperor."
Dachun was once again very envious.
It was a huge jump in status.
Lin Jiufeng laughed. "Why do you sound like you're jealous?"
"Who is not jealous? But I'm just a little envious. If I were to truly become emperor, I would definitely become a foolish and self-indulgent emperor."
"It is rare even for the sons of the royal family to be wise rulers when they become Emperors. Instead, they usually end up being fools."
"However, according to a detailed investigation. Emperors do not usually fall into depravity that quickly. On average, it takes an emperor-five years after their ascension before they become ignorant and indulge."
"After those five years, more than 90% of the emperors will become depraved."
“If I want to become an emperor, I don't need five years. I only need five days to fall into depravity. Anyway, I know my own limitations. "Dachun laughs.
Lin Jinfeng could not help but smile.
“You know yourself enough."
"Humans - even if without – skills should at least know their limits." Dachun nodded and said.
Lin Jinfeng handed the empty dishes and wine jars back to Dachun.
"Your highness. I'll come back and deliver the food to you next time." Dachun packed the empty plates and turned to leave.
"See you soon, seven days later."
Lin Jiufeng returned to her courtyard.
After exploring the outside world, Lin Jiufeng longed for the Cold Palace, especially the place
the ice jade slumber. Although his bed was not very useful for his cultivation today, lying on it was still soothing.
It calms one's mind and makes one not easily angry.
Liu Jinfeng lay on it. He closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
He had run around, unsheathed his sword, and killed his enemies for the past few days without a blink to sleep.
From south to north, Liu Jiufeng never stopped for a moment.
He was tired physically and mentally.
After all, he had to visit nine different places, running back and forth.
Seven sleepless days along with the intense expenditure of his True Qi. Lin Jiufeng might be a Martial Sage, but she reckoned that even if her True Qi became similar to the universally available water. He would still find it difficult to continue at such a pace without a break.
Lin Jiufeng fell into a deep sleep on the ice jade bed, resting quietly.
Half a month passed in an instant.
Lin Jiufeng's body finally returned to its peak state.
However, the plan is still the same.
He planned to continue his routine of entering inside the Cold Palace.
At this moment - the Crown Prince of the Yuhua God Dynasty - Lin Tianyuan, came to his door.
"Uncle." Lin Tianyuan pushed open the door of the Cold Palace and shouted respectfully.
"You have to deal with the affairs of the country and familiarize yourself with the process of dealing with them at the moment, why did you come to my place?" Lin Jiufeng asked, surprised.
"Uncle. Fathering... Father could not hold on any longer, "said Lin Tianyuan sadly.
"Didn't he have a month to live?"
Only twenty or so days have passed since then.
There are eight or nine days left.
"Dad personally taught me how
handling state affairs day and night. Him
stay up every night and do everything
which he can endure. But this morning, she ended up in a coma and has not woken up since then,
"said Lin Tianyuan sadly.
"The imperial doctors tried to take care of him, but they all said that he was at the end of his life."
"I came to ask Uncle to see Father one last time," Lin Tianyuan knelt down and said, depressed.
He knew that his father wanted to see his own brother before he took his last breath.
Therefore, he had come personally to invite Lin Jiufeng.
"Go back and clear the hall for me. I'll be leaving soon."
Lin Jiufeng said after a moment of silence.
At his brother's last moments, Lin Jiufeng did not want anyone to bother the two of them.
"All right, I'll take care of everything." Lin Tianyuan nodded and left respectfully.
He knew that Lin Jiufeng preferred a quiet environment with fewer people around, so he went back to clean the hall.
The Great Hall of the Council!
This was where Emperor Yuan fell into a coma.
He taught Lin Tianyuan how to handle the affairs of the country until his last moment of awakening.
He always remembered the words he had said
his brother to him..
Ruling a country is like cooking a little fish!
A small problem involving hundreds of millions of people would eventually be a shocking one to look at.
Hence, he did not dare to be rash.
He worked like a horse until he collapsed inside this Great Hall of the Hall.
Lin Tianyuan understood his father's character. This was why he did not distract Emperor Yuan.
In the final moments of Emperor Yuan's life, he planned to let him die quietly in the place he was most familiar with.
The people in the Great Hall Hall were disbanded and told to stand quietly outside the hall.
Three layers of security inside and outside.
Everyone's face is serious.
And in the hall, the dim lights were tenaciously shaking in the darkness.
Just like Emperor Yuan.
He tried as hard as he could - so he could see his older brother one last time before he was no more.
Da da da!
The sound of steady footsteps resounded in the Great Hall of the Council.
Lin Jinfeng looked at the haggard Emperor Yuan. He came forward to cover it with a blanket.
When they were young, this was how the older Lin Jiufeng took care of the Yuan Emperor
younger.
In the last moments of his life...
Emperor Yuan grabbed Lin Jiufeng's hand and said with hope in his eyes.
"Sister, have I fulfilled my position as Crown Prince?"
"I didn't let you down, did I?"
In the end, what Emperor Yuan cared about was whether his elder brother was disappointed in him or not.
After all, he had inherited his elder brother's position as Crown Prince and then became Emperor after that for a short ten years. He tried to eliminate the followers, but his elder brother still had to help him finish everything.
He was afraid of disappointing his brother.
That's what he's most afraid of.
Therefore, he held Lin Jiufeng's hand very tightly.
So tight that his green veins were visible under his wrinkled skin.
But he himself seemed not to notice it.
In his eyes, there was only Lin Jiufeng.
Lin Jiufeng smiled gently.
He leaned his body closer to Emperor Yuan and whispered. "Sister, brother is proud of you."
"You never let me down – not even once."
Hearing that, Emperor Yuan smiled and slowly withdrew his hand.
Then, his hand slowly lost its strength and drooped...
Yuhua God Dynasty, Yuan era, Fifteen years.
Emperor Yuan is dead.
