Chapter 241: Border crisis, 4 countries and 5 regions join forces
"Second brother, what do you mean by that? As a prince, do you want to stop us like Minister Hou did?" Cang Wuya shouted, "Even if I agree, ask the ministers if they agree!"
"revenge!"
"revenge!"
"revenge!"
...
Hundreds of thousands of people shouted in unison, the sound was so loud that it shook the heavens. Many people outside Red Moon City couldn't help but follow suit and shout. Soon, the sound resounded across the sky from all directions.
Cang Xuanye's face was gloomy. He knew that no matter how much he said, he could not stop it.
He looked at some princes and ministers, trying to get some people to stop them, but he found that these people either stood on Cang Wuya's side or chose to remain neutral. Even Mu Wenxiang did not stand up.
"Damn it!" Cang Xuanye narrowed his eyes slightly, murderous intent surging in his eyes.
“Cang Xuanye, you must stop him, otherwise it will be dangerous!” Mu Tianjue appeared beside Cang Xuanye at this time and said with a sigh.
"I also know that there may be some way!" Cang Xuanye felt powerless for the first time. No matter how good his ideas were, they were useless at the moment and no one believed in him.
Several fellow disciples from the Shengyang Palace also stood beside Cang Xuanye with firm eyes, expressing their support for him.
"Second brother, I don't want you to come out and stop us, otherwise people will think you have bad intentions!"
Cang Wuya’s last sentence was impure and like an invisible sharp needle.
"My Lords, follow me and raise your troops!" Cang Wuya's eyes were filled with excitement. This was what he had been seeking for many years, to take control of the power. Although he had not yet truly sat on the throne, he was already very close. He believed that as long as he made a good plan this time, the position of the future leader would definitely belong to him.
Just when Cang Wuya was feeling proud and was about to leave, Feng Qingcheng blocked his way.
“Cang Wuya! No, he should be called His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince!”
Feng Qingcheng had been paying attention to the chaos since it began. Especially the conversation between Cang Xuanye and Cang Wuya, which made her realize all of a sudden that the young man in front of her had big plans.
"Oh, it's Fairy Feng. I'm paying close attention to you in this competition." Cang Wuya smiled faintly, his eyes fixed on the beauty in front of him.
"I know you want to enter the Emperor's Pavilion, but now the competition is gone and has been destroyed. I'm afraid your wish can't be realized!" Cang Wuya looked as if he felt sorry for her.
"Don't worry about it, Fourth Prince. Some things cannot be forced!" Feng Qingcheng emphasized the last four words, as if she meant something else.
Cang Wuya's eyes flashed, gradually turned cold, and said; "What? You want to stop me too? Aren't you afraid that you will be locked up in the sky prison?"
Cang Xuanye, Mu Tianjue and others stepped forward, stood behind Feng Qingcheng, and guarded her.
"Fairy Feng is indeed extraordinary. So many people treat you like a treasure. Tsk tsk." Cang Wuya sighed, then smiled mysteriously: "This makes me feel itchy, and I really want to invite Fairy Feng into the palace."
This sentence was very frivolous, but it was said through telepathy, so only the two of them could hear it.
Feng Qingcheng's eyes were cold: "How dare I stop you? If I am also accused of being a traitor, I can't clear myself of the blame even if I jump into the sea!"
Feng Qingcheng spoke sarcastically, and finally said: "But there is one thing that is more important than revenge. Everyone! The emperor just passed away, and even his bones have not been buried. Doing this is extremely disrespectful! I'm sure he won't rest in peace in his grave!"
When this was said, some people nodded, thinking it made sense, and soon most people agreed.
"Your Highness, the Fourth Prince, Fairy Feng is right. We should bury the Emperor first!"
"Yes, the emperor's body is still here, we can't let him down!"
Some princes and ministers said hesitantly.
"Fourth brother, our father still needs to be buried, otherwise it would be unfilial!"
Some royal family members stood up and expressed their desire to bury their father first.
Cang Wuya's eyes turned cold in an instant, with murderous intent hidden in his body. He didn't expect Feng Qingcheng to stand up and say something, which broke his original plan.
Let’s not talk about anything else for now, the word “unfilial” is enough. This is an insurmountable mountain. Once touched, it will cause collapse, which is definitely a dead end.
Cang Wuya and Feng Qingcheng looked at each other, sparks flew between them, and finally he showed a trace of kindness on his face: "Feng Fairy's reminder is very right, I almost got drunk!"
Cang Xuanye and Mu Tianjue breathed a sigh of relief. At least they could suppress it for the time being. The burial would take at least three days, so they could make long-term plans.
Everyone left, and only the guards stayed to clean up the scene.
This time, the turmoil seemed to have grown a pair of wings, and spread quickly throughout Lin'an City, and spread farther and farther. At the same time, a document was sent to the front line as soon as possible to inform the frontline troops to prepare.
Early the next morning, the city of Lin'an was already filled with white lanterns and everyone was wearing white mourning clothes.
The palace was now filled with people, including princes and ministers, generals from various departments, children of famous families, members of the royal family, people from the Holy Spirit Academy, and so on.
Everyone who could rank high in Lin'an City had arrived.
Cang Zhiheng's body was in pieces, but now it has been found and pieced together. He was dressed in a robe made of gold and jade, and placed in a bronze coffin with a huge jade in his mouth. There were also many priceless treasures as burial objects.
Then everyone mourned together. After kowtowed three times and bowed nine times, many ministers and royal family members cried loudly. They still couldn't believe that the emperor had passed away.
The funeral, which was originally scheduled to last three days, was scheduled to one day.
Then one hundred thousand people were buried with the coffin!
On this day, an army of 100,000 from Weinan City of Beidi State raided the border of Xuandu State and captured ten cities in succession.
Tens of thousands of elite troops from Xixialing of the Wu State crossed the dangerous mountains and captured thousands of miles of territory.
The army of the Five Realms Alliance marched eastward, fighting with the border army of Xuandu Kingdom and plundering endless wealth.
The Golden Wolf Kingdom's cavalry swept out, leaving corpses everywhere and the ground stained with blood.
For a time, the border of Xuandu Kingdom was in danger, and countless letters were sent to Lin'an City.
Cang Zhiheng was buried in the east of Lin'an City, where there was a magnificent mountain that had long been transformed into a cemetery.
The burial had just taken place and everyone was about to return.
Three guards arrived on fast horses, shouting loudly and looking terrified.
"It's bad! Something bad is going to happen!"
The three guards turned pale and fell to the ground when they finally dismounted from their horses.
"What happened!" Cang Wuya asked with cold eyes.
"Your Highness the Fourth Prince! Something terrible has happened. The border is in danger!"
Suddenly, everyone in the audience was in an uproar, and many ministers and generals were extremely angry.
"Shameless! They actually took advantage of this opportunity to attack. They want to start a war!"
"How abominable! How dare they do this when the emperor was still alive!"
Feng Qingcheng and the others were shocked. They had guessed that the other party would not be that simple, and sure enough, they took action the next day.
