The prince looked at Zhao Wuyou in disbelief. He did not expect that Zhao Wuyou would have such great pain in his heart. But then he thought about it, a fourteen-year-old bastard, in a large family with a large number of people and complex family members,
Naturally, he would endure a lot of hardships, not to mention that he had not been cared for by his mother since he was a child. Under such circumstances, one can imagine the state of his life in the Zhenguo Palace.
Even so, as the prince, he still had to take care of his subordinates, so he looked at Zhao Wuyou with a smile and said:
"For you, the things done in the Zhenguo Palace were not good enough, and many things were not handled fairly. I will tell your elder brother about this matter.
However, I don’t want you to continue making trouble like this in the future. If things get bigger, it will be you brothers who are embarrassed."
Zhao Wuyou looked at the prince's enthusiastic and hypocritical look, but he still lowered his head in embarrassment.
Life is like a drama, it all depends on acting skills. When two drama stars compete with each other, they are also testing each other's thoughts.
Immediately afterwards, the prince changed the topic, and his eyes towards Zhao Wuyou changed from the caring and sympathetic look before to becoming more fierce.
"How are you doing with the Phoenix Clan? Have they not contacted you recently?"
The previous ones are all nonsense, until this point, it’s the real deal.
Zhao Wuyou pretended to think, and shook his head in confusion:
"The Phoenix clan hasn't sent anyone to contact me recently, and I can't contact them. Seeing that it's time for me to take the antidote again, they must have forgotten this matter."
After saying these words, the prince frowned slightly, but he quickly asked:
"Do you know how many people there are in the Phoenix clan? Do you know where they live?"
Shaking his head, Zhao Wuyou really didn't know this time, and Huamei had never told him about it.
"Huamei is very mysterious. She never talks too much about herself. She just wants me to help her pay attention to major events in the capital. Now she has not sent anyone to ask about such a big thing as the competition between the Fengming Empire and the Shenlong Empire. I am even worried about them.
Did something happen to the Phoenix clan?"
"Um?"
The prince's brows furrowed even deeper. His trust in Zhao Wuyou was very low. Even if he had deliberately curried favor and dedicated the Supreme Dao Sutra to him, this was just fulfilling his promise.
But when he said something happened to the Phoenix clan, the prince couldn't help but feel shocked.
The prince already knew that there was civil strife in the Dark Temple, and that rebellious man had mastered the harmony of dragons and phoenixes. If he wanted to completely eliminate the master of the Dark Temple, he might send someone to eliminate the Phoenix clan, and by the way, cultivate a group of special people with the power of the Phoenix.
figure.
Worried in his heart, he fell into thinking. What he wanted most now was to find the Phoenix clan as soon as possible and refine them into Phoenix essence, so that he could become a special person with immortality.
"Ahem!" Zhao Wuyou pretended to cough to wake up the prince who was deep in thought. He didn't want to see the prince in a daze here.
"Well, Zhao Wuyou, if you get the exact news about the Phoenix clan recently, remember to report to me as soon as possible. This matter is very important and even related to the safety of the Fengming Empire. Remember not to be careless."
Seeing the serious look on his face, Zhao Wuyou wanted to slap him to death. This guy was really good at acting. He couldn't wait to raise the butcher's knife against the Phoenix clan, and he spoke so righteously about the Fengming Empire's comfort.
, simply too shameless.
"Prince, don't worry, I will definitely do it. As long as there is news about the Phoenix Clan, I will inform you of their news as soon as possible."
Zhao Wuyou's response was neither fast nor slow. After all, he was not trusted by the prince. His answer was too quick and straightforward, which turned out to be false. His answer was too slow, and it seemed insincere and too selfish.
The prince on the side was not happy when he saw Zhao Wuyou's answer, but he also knew that Zhao Wuyou was not his subordinate. It was normal for him to be a little selfish. He wanted Zhao Wuyou to do good things for him.
Then we have to win over them carefully.
The two pretended to chat for a while, and the prince got to know Zhao Wuyou better. He secretly thought that Zhao Wuyou was a smart man who neglected discipline and had a deep hatred for the government.
The playboy.
And Zhao Wuyou knew the prince better. In addition to being hypocritical and a master of power, he also had more of a pursuit of desires.
The two people were smiling and talking, but there was not much truth in the conversation. Suddenly, the prince started to draw his sword again.
"Last time you were in Jingzhao Yin Mansion, who was the person who rescued you?"
"This?" Zhao Wuyou looked very embarrassed.
"Haha, you don't have to worry. I know who he is. I just want to know why he left the Fengming Empire and why he suddenly betrayed the Fengming Sect."
The prince laughed loudly just to reassure Zhao Wuyou so that he could speak out boldly.
Seeing that Zhao Wuyou was still silent, the prince didn't care about being angry at this time and started his performance again.
"Ten years ago, I went to Fengming Sect to practice. The person who received me at that time was Cao Yunfei. He was a very nice person and I sympathized with his plight. But, alas, things happen to people."
When Zhao Wuyou heard what he said, the tension on his face instantly relaxed. This was exactly what the prince needed.
"After Cao Yunfei rescued you that day, did he explain where he was going, or did he explain anything to you?"
The prince's problems always revolved around Cao Yunfei, and Zhao Wuyou also knew that if he didn't talk about it, it would be difficult for him to get through this.
So he said cautiously:
"Your Highness, you should know the inside story of my master back then, but I don't know. I only know from a few words that what happened back then had a great impact on him.
This also caused him to be autistic and rarely talk to me. Even during his daily practice, he rarely spoke.
After he rescued me last time, he just said he wanted me to take care and leave the capital, a place of right and wrong."
"That's it?" The prince didn't believe it, but what Zhao Wuyou made up was so similar, and Cao Yunfei was really as he described, taciturn and rarely spoke to others, which made him have to believe it.
Unwilling to let it go, the prince frowned and tried:
"Do you know where Cao Yunfei is going? Didn't he tell you what he was going to do? Or, did you do anything for him?"
Under the guidance of the prince, Zhao Wuyou said hesitantly:
"Well, he didn't ask me to do anything specifically. He just asked me to leave the capital. He said there were too many bad people in the capital and I, a fourteen-year-old, couldn't handle it.
Then he said he wanted to go to the south, but I didn’t know exactly what he wanted to do.”
"South?" The prince lowered his head, pondered for a moment, and made his own judgment in his mind.
This time, Zhao Wuyou's performance satisfied him, and to a large extent, it proved the prince's judgment on some things. However, the prince did not care too much about Cao Yunfei. He only cared about the Phoenix clan now.
"Zhao Wuyou, we had a great chat today. I will go see your eldest and second brother in a while and try my best to tell you everything.
As for you, stay well in the capital, and if you have any news about the Phoenix clan, you must report it to me first."
The prince finished speaking and ended today's conversation.
The two of them walked downstairs together again, chatting and laughing. At this moment, the prince seemed to be a caring and warm man, while Zhao Wuyou was as well-behaved as the boy next door. This chapter has been completed!
