"Young prince! Be careful with your words!"

Zhengjun Duncan hurriedly reminded him, and at the same time looked inside and outside, fearing that there were ears on the other side of the wall.

Discussing the life and death of the emperor privately is a crime of disrespect.

If it is spread by someone with ulterior motives, it will be troublesome to ruin your reputation.

"Uncle Duncan, don't worry. This is West Lucozia, not Stonia. No matter what you talk about, you can speak freely without any scruples." Thorian Rhys smiled faintly, not caring at all.

It's a well-known thing. What's wrong with saying a few words? If you don't say it, you don't have to die?

It's really confusing!

"Ahem... It seems that I worry too much." Zhengjun Duncan laughed awkwardly.

Although he knew that what the other party said was true, he was cautious and didn't dare to discuss the emperor's right and wrong.

"Uncle Duncan, to be honest, a lot of people have come to West Lucozia recently, and there are still a bunch of people standing outside the door. Their goal is the same as yours, to find out whether the West Lucozia Palace has any ambitions and whether it will interfere with the decision of Stonia." Thorian Rhys took a sip from the teacup and paused deliberately.

"Oh? Did the young prince respond?" Zhengjun Duncan asked tentatively.

"What, a response?!" Thorian Rhys curled his lips: "I don't care about those people outside. Who are they? Are they qualified to test our Rhys family?"

After saying this, Zhengjun Duncan couldn't help but look embarrassed.

"Of course, Uncle Duncan, you are different. You are a distinguished guest of our Rhys family. Those guys outside are nothing compared to you." Thorian Rhys changed the subject again.

Zhengjun Duncan didn't know how to respond except to laugh awkwardly.

"Uncle Duncan, let's get back to the point. Whoever becomes the emperor in Stonia has nothing to do with our Rhys family. Even if Stonia is in chaos, it won't affect West Lucozia, so we don't want to meddle in other people's business." Thorian Rhys said.

The Rhys family's roots are in West Lucozia, which is completely different from Stonia. The two sides have not interfered with each other for many years, which has become a tacit rule.

"That's the truth, but the big tree has a trick. Even if the West Lucozia Palace doesn't do anything, it will still attract attention. Those people outside are the best example." Zhengjun Duncan said.

Many times, many things, even if you don't want to do them, will be pushed to do them by various forces and people.

"Speaking of this, I'm a little curious. What does the Duncan family think about this turmoil?" Thorian Rhys suddenly asked back.

"Ah? Duncan family?" Zhengjun Duncan was slightly startled.

He didn't expect that the person in front of him would throw the problem to him.

After a little contemplation, Zhengjun Duncan finally said: "To be honest with you, my Lord, we in the Duncan family are also having a headache about this matter. We really can't make a decision. As the saying goes, one wrong step will lead to a complete loss. We dare not gamble at all."

At the end, he couldn't help but sigh.

Being in the vortex and without the power to control the overall situation, we can only take one step at a time.

"I understand."

Thorian Rhys nodded and said meaningfully: "You came to West Lucozia this time, hoping that our Rhys family can show you a way out, right?"

"Young Prince is wise!"

Zhengjun Duncan quickly stood up and saluted: "If the young prince can give us some advice and help our Duncan family out of the sea of ​​suffering, our Duncan family will be grateful!"

"It's not that I can give you some advice, but it's okay to discuss with each other."

Thorian Rhys smiled slightly: "In fact, your Duncan family don't need to be nervous. As the saying goes, when the boat reaches the bridge, it will naturally straighten itself. If it really comes to that, there will naturally be a noble person to help you solve the difficulties."

"Noble person?" Zhengjun Duncan was stunned and asked in a strange way: "I don't know who the young prince is referring to?"

Looking at the whole Stonia, there are very few people who can dominate the situation. Who will be the noble person of their Duncan family?

"The secret cannot be leaked. When the time is right, Uncle Duncan will naturally understand." Thorian Rhys deliberately kept it a secret.

These words made Zhengjun Duncan feel itchy.

Thorian Rhys seemed to have said a lot, but it seemed that he had said nothing.

He came to solve the problem, but after talking for a while, there were more problems.

"Okay, Uncle Duncan, stop looking so sad. Stay in the palace today and relax. I'll go back to Stonia with you tomorrow morning." Thorian Rhys suddenly said.

"Ah? Little Prince, you're going to Stonia too?!" Zhengjun Duncan was shocked.

"Of course, it's boring to stay at home all day. I'll take this opportunity to go to Stonia for a stroll."

Thorian Rhys smiled and said, "Besides, my uncle the emperor is almost dead. As his nephew, I have to go and visit him."

His mother was the eldest princess, so the emperor was naturally his uncle, but the number of times they met was very few.

It's nonsense to say that they have a deep relationship.

Of course, thanks to this identity, he can go to Stonia openly.

"So that's how it is." Zhengjun Duncan nodded in understanding: "But now Stonia is in turmoil, the young prince should be careful after he goes there."

"What? Does Uncle Duncan think that someone will harm me?"

Thorian Rhys hooked his lips jokingly: "I really hope there is such a stubborn person, otherwise, how can my hundreds of thousands of West Lucozia cavalry have a chance to show their prowess?"

Zhengjun Duncan coughed twice and didn't dare to talk back.

This kid is really not shy at all.

He just needs to write "great achievements shock the master" on his face.

But on second thought, it's not wrong.

At this juncture, anyone who dares to harm Thorian Rhys will have to bear the wrath of hundreds of thousands of West Lucozia cavalry. - Ton

Interception

Li Guanglong’s fingers gently stroked the ornate box, the chill of its silken surface seeping into his fingertips, yet it could not mask the damp sweat pooling in his palm. He glanced at Murong Xue, who was locked in a drinking contest with Batu. Murong was tilting back his head, draining a large bowl of amber-colored liquor. His Adam’s apple bobbed as he swallowed, and in the corner of his eye he cast a fleeting glance toward the copper kettle in the corner of the igloo. That was where they had hidden the prepared knockout drug --- brewed from a poisonous herb of the icefields that gave off a sweet aroma. Once mixed into strong liquor, it was nearly impossible to detect. “Leader Batu truly has a mighty capacity for drink!” Murong Xue slammed his empty bowl down on the table, sending ice shards scattering. “This ‘ice-burn’ liquor cuts like a blade. Ordinary men collapse after three bowls, yet you remain unshaken. Truly worthy of being called the eagle of the snowfields!” Batu r...

Frozen Wasteland

The ice sculptures shimmered with a cold light in the biting wind, the soldiers’ twisted faces sealed inside the crystalized frost, as if still crying out from the agony of being frozen alive. Li Guanglong stared at those figures, his Adam’s apple rolling a few times as he forced down the tremor in his chest. He raised a hand to rub his still-stiff arm. The spot that had been swept by the white mist earlier was still faintly bruised with purplish-blue, the chill seeming to seep deep into his very bones. “Your Highness, that spirit deer carries a poisonous cold beyond imagination.” Wan Zhong leaned on his blade as he walked over, the wound on his lone arm having split open again from the cold. Blood seeped through the bandages, dripping scarlet dots onto the snow. He gazed toward where the deer had vanished, his eyes full of dread. “We’d best hold our camp steady for now, and not recklessly provoke the creatures of this island again.” Li Guanglong nodded silently. His earlier ...

Seeking Medicine for a Father

When Li Weimin’s decree was issued, reactions across the factions varied. At that moment, Li Wenxing was in his study, weighing the pros and cons of the recent trip to Southern Frontier. Although he hadn’t stood out much, compared to Li Guanglong and Li Juntang, he was still the more capable one. But this minor advantage clearly wasn’t enough to change the overall outcome. Just then, Qian Jin rushed in and reported, “Your Highness! A message from the palace --- His Majesty’s condition has worsened, and he has only a short time left. He has issued a special decree: any royal family member who can journey to Penglai Island and retrieve the elixir will become the future crown prince!” “Future crown prince?” Hearing this, Li Wenxing’s spirits lifted immediately. But soon after, he frowned. He had, of course, heard of Penglai Island --- but only in legends. Whether it truly existed in the East Sea, and whether it held any elixir that could extend life, remained unknown. ...
