Li Chen looked at the talented man in front of him who was already a fourth-rank official at a young age, with a calm expression, "Are you also my second brother?"

Tong Kaiwen was slightly startled, but he quickly answered accurately, "This official is from the Holy Dynasty."

Li Chen pointed at Xiao Qi and asked seriously: "What if I say, I want to take him away?"

"Your Highness Ninth Highness." Tong Kaiwen spoke out, calling him "Your Highness" with a sarcastic expression, "This slave is now a repeat offender. According to the iron laws of the Tang Dynasty, he should stay in Dali Temple. Even you have to do things according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty.

"

"Your Highness, I'm fine." Xiao Qi said at this time, while shaking his head vaguely to Li Chen.

Li Chen understood what Xiao Qi meant. This is Dali Temple after all, and it is a very important place for the entire temple. If he crashes into Dali Temple today, he will be in trouble in the future.

Li Chen took a deep look at Tong Kaiwen, turned around and left Dali Temple, and told the coachman, "Go to the second prince's house."

The carriage drove quickly out of the long street. Behind him, Tong Kaiwen looked at this scene and turned around and said: "Expedited interrogation."

After passing several long streets, the carriage stopped steadily.

Li Chen knocked on the door of the second prince's residence, and without waiting for the servant who opened the door to ask, he opened the door and walked straight in.

The housekeeper hurried over after hearing the servant's call. When he saw it was Li Chen, he stopped and dispersed the people who had gathered.

Li Chen asked: "Where is my second brother?"

The housekeeper said: "His Royal Highness is in the study at the moment. You have to wait for me to go and report it."

Li Chen didn't say a word, and followed him all the way to the outside of the study, then asked: "Are you a witness from Dali Temple?"

The housekeeper seemed to respond respectfully, "I did let you go to Dali Temple. I just told you what you saw and heard, and I don't know what happened."

It's full of impeccable human essence, and will never leave anything to say.

Li Chen nodded, pushed open the study door, and saw the second prince who was practicing calligraphy.

When the second prince raised his head and saw Li Chen, his expression froze for a blink of an eye, but he soon regained his composure and said with a smile: "It turns out that the ninth brother is back. I said that I have been having such good dreams recently. Come here quickly. I have been here for more than half a year."

I’ll copy everyone’s books and see if my calligraphy has improved?”

Li Chen didn't intend to go around in circles with him. He didn't even glance at the copybook on the table with interest, and said bluntly: "Let Xiao Qi go."

The second prince was still pretending, "Ninth brother, what are you talking about? Who is Xiao Qi?"

Li Chen looked at him coldly, as if he were looking at a dead person. When he left Kyoto, he and the second brother in front of him had already broken up with each other. Now that Xiao Qi's safety was involved, he no longer wanted to show off.

Went down.

The room was quiet for a few breaths, until the atmosphere became increasingly solemn.

The enthusiasm on the face of the second prince Li Zheng slowly dissipated, and he threw the pen aside, "Ninth brother, your attitude is not to ask for help."

"You must first understand that I am not here to beg you." Seeing that he finally got down to business, Li Chen stared at the second prince and said: "I just want to tell you a few things and a truth. The first thing is, I know

There are many people in the court who were arranged by you, and I also know that Xiao Qi’s matter must be your handiwork. Even if you want to pass the law of the holy court, let me become a prisoner like Xiao Qi. Give you some time.

And preparation is not impossible.

The second thing is, I know that there are people of yours on Yunmo Mountain, so you should know that I killed the monsters in the Wangyou Realm with one sword on Yunmo Mountain that day, not just to spread rumors. Then you should understand even more that in this world, forgetfulness

Under the circumstances of sorrow, I dare to call myself invincible.

So, have you ever thought that I can kill you at any time, right now, or tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow. After killing you, no matter whether I escape Kyoto or not, at least you will be the first to die.

The third thing is, you are now the most likely person to sit in that seat, so, second brother, please don’t force me.

The truth I want to tell you is that I have the means to kill you at any time, and I also have the courage to overturn this chessboard for inheritance. What about you? As the person most likely to sit in that position today, do you have the courage?

?”

While he was talking, he suddenly grabbed the second prince's arm. The second prince groaned in pain and screamed. He gritted his teeth to prevent himself from making any sound, but the veins on his cheeks popped out and he stared at Li Chen closely.

Li Chen calmly asked again: "Or, second brother, do you dare to take a gamble? Starting from Xiao Qi, from this moment to every breath in the future."

There seemed to be silence in the study for a long time, but in fact it was only for a moment. The second prince said hoarsely, "I'll let the butler take you there."

Before walking out of the study, Li Chen stopped, without looking back, and left a message, "You actually did a good job this time. I do care about the lives and deaths of those people in the house, but you should know the fate given to me by Taishi Yuan."

Approval, so although I care about their life and death, I never deliberately want them to live, because I already know their ending. From the day I know my personal fate, what I really care about and consider is how to avenge them.

.”

Until Li Chen and the housekeeper left the door, the second prince sat slumped on the chair in a daze. He had to admit that at that moment, he was indeed unspeakably frightened towards this ninth brother. Until this moment, he felt great humiliation.

He got into his heart and cursed several times, "Madman! Madman!"

After leaving the study room, there were dozens of people outside the door, including three or five people from the other side, who should be the strong men that the second prince had recruited in the past six months.
