"Tell me, why did you come back without permission?"
Lin Feng and Fa Xuan chatted as they walked. The guards outside the imperial gate sensed that something was wrong when they saw Lin Feng and Fa Xuan walking together.
"If Chu Li knows Mu Feng and Mu Feng is so strong, if Fa Xuan takes advantage of this opportunity, he might be able to make a comeback." Said an elder in surprise as he watched Lin Feng and Fa Xuan walk towards the Universal Palace.
"You're exaggerating. No matter how strong Mu Feng is, he's just a god. If he was a god emperor, he might be able to make the old emperor change his mind, but he's just a god. No matter how strong he is, he won't be able to change Fa Xuan's fate."
"That might not necessarily be the case. Having a person by your side to help you can determine a lot of things. Once Fa Xuan does something shocking, the previous emperor might pay attention to him. If he pays attention to the Third Prince, it might be an opportunity for the Third Prince."
"Don't forget how the old emperor ascended to the throne. Without Fa Duo and the Imperial Tutor's help, he wouldn't have been able to become the emperor."
"Shhh, don't let other people hear that. Do you want to die?"
… …
Lin Feng followed Fa Xuan to the Palace of the Universe. During that time, Lin Feng also heard why Fa Xuan had come back to the Imperial City. The Sun Empire hadn't distributed food to the disciples of the Imperial City for three months. The border was already in a state of chaos. If they didn't distribute food, the Sun Empire would take advantage of the chaos and invade the Imperial City.
Therefore, Fa Xuan had unknowingly chosen to leave the border in the middle of the night. He wanted to go back to the imperial palace and ask the old emperor for food.
Lin Feng and Fa Xuan had already arrived in front of the Palace of the Universe. That palace was a hundred meters high. It was shining with a golden light. Lin Feng could feel the pressure from the depths of his soul. Inside the palace, there was a commotion. All the geniuses from the various clans and empires were already there.
But Lin Feng and Fa Xuan didn't want to go in. First of all, Lin Feng didn't care about the banquet and Fa Xuan didn't know how to face the old emperor. If they broke the atmosphere, he knew what would happen.
"What do you plan to do?" Said Lin Feng while pointing at a corner of the Cosmos Palace. There was a long and narrow corridor there, nobody was passing by. Lin Feng and Fa Xuan entered the corridor and started talking.
"I don't know either, but I must return to the frontier before tomorrow morning, or there will be unrest there." Fa Xuan was distressed and did not know what to do. Although he had the strength of a High-Level Ultimate God, he could not suppress so many disciples.
"Why don't you think about why the Imperium hasn't paid you for months? Is it possible that someone is behind all this?" Lin Feng had been thinking about a very practical problem. When he saw that Fa Xuan was confused, he finally decided to tell him.
As expected, when Fa Xuan heard Lin Feng's words, his facial expression changed again but he didn't dare believe it. Was there someone in the Imperial Court who was plotting against them? How could this be? This was a matter that concerned the rise and fall of the country, and it could not be careless. Who would be so careless as to interfere in such a matter?
"That's impossible, right? How could they make a fuss about the army's pay?" Fa Xuan did not believe it. He did not want to believe that there was someone in the Imperial Court who was arrogant and despotic to such an extent. If this was the case and the momentum continued, the Faran Empire would eventually perish.
Lin Feng smiled and shook his head. He could only say that Fa Xuan had not been in the Imperial Court for a long time and was probably not clear about the trickery. However, Lin Feng had experienced Xue Yue and many other empires when he was young, so he more or less knew about it.
"No matter which Empire it is, it will always exist. They don't care about the survival of the Empire at all. They only care about whether their interests can be maximized. Even if the Empire perishes one day, only the Monarch will be killed. As for the Imperial Family, they will be pushed out by the Royal Family of the new Empire. They will be the witnesses and the people will willingly submit to them.
"So don't be naive and think that everyone has the same thoughts as you on this matter. Don't forget, if you really do that, you'll be infringing on other people's interests, and it won't benefit you at all."
"Third Prince, you're already in a very dangerous situation, so for your own sake and for your mother's sake, it's best that you endure a bit more. You shouldn't have come back. Even if the borders can't be held and there's chaos, you should still be happy."
"Let me tell you something, when something accumulates for a long time, it will change. If you can't keep it under wraps, people will know about it. That's the best time for you to fight back."
"When the border is in chaos, the Monarch will definitely ask you the reason. At that time, you should tell him the truth. You haven't received any pay for a few months. You are a smart person, you should know how the Monarch will react." Lin Feng was carefully analyzing the situation with Fa Xuan, trying to figure out a solution.
Fa Xuan was also listening attentively, but he couldn't give up the border that he had protected for so many years.
Lin Feng understood what Fa Xuan was thinking, so he smiled and said, "I didn't ask you to wait until the border is in chaos. Right now, you are still in control, right?"
"Indeed, for the time being, they still trust me." Fa Xuan nodded, he looked solemn.
"That's right, so go back immediately and bring them to create a fake disturbance. I'll spread the news that there's trouble at the border, and at that time, your father will definitely summon you. Come back at that time and explain everything to him. He'll forgive you and investigate this matter."
"At that time, your father will definitely feel sorry for you, even if he doesn't like you. Since you can't be his son, you should be his best official."
"If you show even a little bit of light, he will think that you can still be molded."
"Emperors are heartless, but they also recognize talent. The Faran Empire has been standing tall for so many years and is becoming more and more prosperous. That's enough to prove that your father is a wise emperor. It's just that because of your poor background, he instinctively rejected you."
"Go, do this well, and you will have a chance to make a comeback."
This was the first time Lin Feng had spoken so much since he had arrived in the Faran Empire. Besides, Lin Feng wanted to help the prince.
When Fa Xuan heard Lin Feng's plan, he raised his head and looked at Lin Feng in admiration. He hadn't thought that Lin Feng would be so smart.
Lin Feng smiled indifferently. He had fought against the imperial book for a long time, and after being influenced by Xu Qian and Jestan, he had become more intelligent. Lin Feng was able to come up with some ideas for such a simple matter.
"Thank you, if it succeeds, I will buy you a drink." Said Fa Xuan while smiling at Lin Feng. He was very happy, he didn't feel depressed anymore.
"Haha, third prince, do you know that the first prince, Fa Chun, gave me a wooden stone to recruit me? The second prince, Fakh, gave me a dragon belt and the fourth prince gave me an ice eye as a gift. Haha, you want to give me a bottle of alcohol?" Said Lin Feng while smiling at Fa Xuan. He looked like he was amused.
When Fa Xuan heard Lin Feng, he felt embarrassed and his face turned red. He didn't have many treasures, he couldn't be like the other princes who were so generous.
"Alright, I'm just teasing you. To tell you the truth, I would rather take your bottle of wine than take their treasures. But since they gave it to me, if I didn't take it, I would be too embarrassed, wouldn't I? Haha. "
Said Lin Feng while laughing and patting Fa Xuan's shoulder. Then, he slowly walked towards the Universal Palace.
Fa Xuan looked at Lin Feng. He suddenly felt that Lin Feng was very mysterious, but at the same time, he admired him. Very few people liked to talk to him, especially when they talked so much. He really admired Lin Feng and was grateful to him.
"I hope I can survive this calamity. Obviously, some people want to harm me."
"Let me borrow your move and see if it works."
As Fa Xuan spoke, he immediately left the Imperial Palace. He did not stay for even half a step. The Elders guarding the Imperial Palace were astonished. Wasn't the Third Prince here to look for the Old Emperor?
"Sigh, the third prince is so pitiful. If the old emperor doesn't know that he's back, we don't need to report it."
"Alright, I also agree."
"Elder Fa Duo really likes the third prince, let's not go too far."
… …
When Lin Feng entered the Universal Palace, he realized how gigantic it was. The first floor was a few hundred square meters and the floor was golden. In the middle, there were two tables filled with people. They were all old men, probably the elders of the Faran Empire.
There was a staircase in the corner that led to the second floor. Lin Feng saw Chu Li, Garuda, Fahe and the others.
Lin Feng entered and attracted many people's attention. Everybody was looking at him.
