C601 Guests and Prisoners

But it was precisely because of this that he was unable to release the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Now, it seemed that the benefits he obtained from it were much more than from the books.

"Big Brother, Father was actually just saying it to you. Actually, everyone knows that in Father's heart, the one who values the most is Eldest Brother."

Fu Lin decided not to continue this topic. His father had passed away. He knew that his father once had such a thought. It was fine if he kept this feeling and true feelings in his heart. However, there was no need for him to reveal it too much. Because he was born in the Emperor's family, and he had just happened to encounter such a chaotic situation. There was really no need for him to panic. After all, everything was built on the basis of safety. And to ensure safety, one could not jump out and become a direct threat to others. For so many years, he had long understood such a simple principle.

When Hagrid saw that his expression had quickly returned to normal, he did not say anything else. However, the smile on his face today always made people feel that there was a profound meaning behind it.

"Alright, Big Brother doesn't need to be so long-winded anymore. Look, I only stayed with you for a short while. I almost got infected by your illness. Is there a saying in the Han people that goes, 'Those who are close to the vermilion, those who are close to the vermilion, those who are close to the vermilion, those who are close to the ink, those who are close to the ink, those who are dark'? Haha, this really makes sense. That's right, you still have a great merit this time. I heard that you have captured Zhang Jingxuan, who is equally famous as Lee Hongji in the Southern Dynasty. That's good news. Holding this kid in his hand, it would be a good opportunity to hold Lee Hongji back. It was said that his reputation was not bad, and he might be able to use him as a puppet in the future. After saying that, I became a little curious about this kid. Come, come, bring him out for me to take a look."

Although Zhang Jingxuan, who was in the sedan, was already prepared for such a situation and scene, after all, although he seemed to be a distinguished guest, he was actually a prisoner. The boundary between these two was actually very subtle.

However, he didn't expect that this moment would come so quickly and so unexpectedly.

Whatever, what should come will come eventually.

The outside and inside of the sedan fell into silence at the same time. The only difference was that some people had to choose, while others did not have the right to do so.

The leader did not speak, so the others naturally did not say anything. This scene suddenly became somewhat strange. Meanwhile, Old Eleventh Borg, who was watching from the side, was anxious. He wanted to say something to resolve this awkwardness a few times. On the one hand, he didn't know what to say. On the other hand, he saw that his big brother, Hagrid, was looking at him. Obviously, he did not want to get involved, so he could only swallow his words back into his stomach.

Zhang Jingxuan couldn't see anything outside in the sedan, so he felt even more suffocated. Just as he was about to lose control and want to shout, he heard Fu Lin speak at this moment.

"Big brother, although I really don't want to reject your offer, but regarding this matter, please forgive this little brother for being unable to comply. In my heart, I respect you, big brother. In this world, I'm afraid that only my father is worthy of respect. This Cult Master Zhang is a guest of my little brother, and at the same time, a hero. Now that he was seriously ill, it was not a good time to meet his elder brother. First of all, his big brother's body was worth thousands of gold. It would not be good if it infected his big brother. Second, Cult Master Zhang's current body could not withstand the wind from our Northern Territory. What do you think?"

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Hogg's words.

"Hahaha! I say, Old Nine, don't think of so many reasons. I'm so tired of being long-winded. Sigh, I'll talk to you for a while. I'm afraid I'll lose a few pounds of good meat! Since it's not convenient to see you today, I won't force you. I'll talk about it in the future when I have the chance. Let's not stand here anymore. I have to go back and get some tendons to nourish my body. You should go and see your mother too."

After saying that, Hogg mounted his horse and rode on the reins. His horse took the lead and left in a trail of dust. The iron guards behind him immediately followed him like a shadow, neither too far nor too close. Even if they moved quickly, they would not deviate in the slightest.

Seeing that his big brother was neither angry nor happy, leaving so suddenly, Fu Lin frowned slightly. Bormu Bogor smiled at him, winked at him, and then left as well.

The welcoming group also left in a hurry, which made Fu Lin feel that he did not know what was going on. Most of the time when he did things, he would plan and make decisions. He wanted to make contributions first. And the current situation caused a wave of uneasiness to arise in his heart. Moreover, for the sake of his own safety, his mother was on this trip. However, the facts proved that he had brought all of his important people with him. This was also reasonable. Otherwise, Monk Kuiguang would have schemed to ambush him. It might bring him even greater danger.

There were always pros and cons to everything. His own safety was guaranteed, but the strength he had left in Shengjing was much weaker. If Yun Da were to oversee the Shengjing, the situation here would definitely be much better. The world was always in a dilemma. At this moment, Fu Lin deeply felt that although there were many top figures by his side, he still had a lot of helpers. But it's still too little. Of course, he was just a prince who wasn't outstanding. To put it nicely, he was a prince. To put it bluntly, it was just a royal family that was very likely to be suspected by the new emperor in the future.

Fu Lin knew that this was not the time to think about these things. He decided that he would not care about these things. He would first go and see his mother before talking about the rest.

Entering the interior of the Imperial Palace, even though he was a prince, he could not just casually ride his horse. He quickly entered the Qing, bypassed Chong Zheng Palace, and then passed the Phoenix Building. He could enter Qing Ning Palace and see his mother whom he often missed. At this moment, Fu Lin really felt the urgency to think about his family.

But when he saw a person standing in front of the Phoenix Building with a smile, he could only stop his footsteps and bow. He said, "Greetings, Uncle."

The figure seemed to have been standing there for a long time. The wind outside the pass made his clothes flutter. However, his body did not budge. He was like a human-shaped granite boulder. The uncle that Fu Lin was talking about was none other than Abahai's younger brother. Dorgon.

Dorgon was forty-seven years old now, and he was still in his prime. His eyes were like a deep canyon. An elusive light. At this moment, his eyes seemed to be filled with a strange and loving light.

Fu Lin might not dare to take it seriously. This was because no one could figure out who this uncle was. Except for his father, Abahai, no one could suppress him.

Ever since Abahai was injured by the arrow and was careless, causing his illness to become incurable, rumors had spread in the outside world many times. Dorgon wanted to imitate Song Taizong and attack his brother's position. These rumors were probably not baseless.
