Chapter 2000: Yun Luofeng Was Tricked (6)

What awaited him inside the Tianqi Kingdom was a harsh round of interrogation.
The atmosphere inside the imperial study was heavy. The Emperor sat on his imperial throne while Noble Consort Lin stood beside him. Qi Ling and Qi Yu were below them.
“Qi Ling, I heard that you obtained three jade seals during the Four Kingdom Tournament this time?” the Emperor openly asked, getting right to the point. “Your third imperial brother is the leader of the four kingdoms prophesied by the state preceptor. It’s useless for you to possess the jade seals, you should give them to your third imperial brother instead.”
After saying this, the Emperor gave Qi Yu a look. “Why aren’t you going to retrieve the jade seals already?”
“Yes, Imperial Father.” Joy entered Qi Yu’s heart and he gleefully walked towards Qi Ling.
Qi Ling, so what if you obtained three jade seals? In the end, don’t you still have to hand them to me?
“Second Imperial Brother, why aren’t you handing the jade seals over already? Could it be that you want me to search your body?”
Qi Ling’s figure was straight as a ramrod. “Everyone knows who the winner of the Four Kingdom Tournament is. You repeatedly claim that Third Imperial Brother will be the leader of the four kingdoms, so why didn’t he obtain first place?”
The Emperor frowned, clear impatience seeping out of his eyes.
“Zhen merely wants you both to walk fewer detours. Don’t you know how powerful the state preceptor’s abilities are? How could his words be false? So what if you can make the four kingdoms listen to you right now? You still have to return it to your brother eventually. Wouldn’t it be better to give him this power from the start?”
More importantly, Qi Yu was much more obedient than Qi Ling. If he really allowed Qi Ling to become the ruler of the four kingdoms, he was afraid that even he would have to do as he said despite being his father.
The Emperor did not wish for this to happen no matter what!
“The state preceptor said this?” Qi Ling glanced at the Emperor. “Then this only shows that the state preceptor has problematic eyesight! That’s why he would think a trash like Qi Yu can rule the four kingdoms!”
“What impudence!”
Hearing his response, the Emperor’s face drastically transformed and he angrily shouted, “You dare to disobey zhen’s orders already. When you become the ruler of the four kingdoms, wouldn’t you completely disregard zhen? Zhen is telling you, you are handing the jade seals over whether you want to or not! Immediately hand it over!”
A sneer turned up on Qi Ling’s mouth. He was about to say something when the door of the study was abruptly pushed open.
A man in white stepped through the doorway.
This man was unrealistically pretty. When he walked, people could vaguely see an immortal mist behind him. He held a jade flute in his hands, and his steps were light and barely discernible.
The kingdom’s civil and martial ministers all trailed in after the man, they clearly heard everything that was spoken inside the study just now.
If Yun Luofeng was here, she would be able to immediately discern that this man was the one playing a song in the forest previously.
He was Jueqian’s reincarnation!
“State Preceptor!” Seeing the man’s appearance, the Emperor immediately stood up. “I still remember you once said zhen’s third imperial son will rule the four kingdoms in the future. Zhen clearly remembers this.”
The man faintly smiled. His smile was beautiful beyond this world. The prettiest color in this world could not compare to this smile of his.
However, his smile was different from Ji Jiutian’s egotistical smile, and Chen Yuqing’s gentle smile, nor was it like Yun Xiao’s deeply loving smile. A coolness emanated from his smile, making people’s heart ache.
“I did indeed say that...”
The Emperor relaxed. But before he could say anything, the man spoke again, “However, I was teasing you. Didn’t you realize?”
