Chapter 158 The Death of the Crown Prince The method of controlling the sword and the method of flying are only a part of this spell, but this part can be said to be all about controlling the corpse dog flying sword. That is to say, the remaining part of this spell has nothing to do with the Corpse Dog Flying Sword. Jiang Lin currently does not have the "authority" or "key" to view the rest. "Forget it, just leave it there." Jiang Lin didn't dwell on it too much. After all, the flying sword and the magic were given by the old man. In that case, what was there to worry about? However, it will take time to comprehend this magic formula. Jiang Lin had no idea of the grade of the Corpse Dog Flying Sword, but he could tell it was extraordinary just by looking at these two spells. Jiang Lin’s basis for determining whether a method is extraordinary is very simple. Those that you can learn at a glance are minor spells, or tricks, while those that require a little more attention are famous spells, such as shrinking the earth to an inch. As for the Divine Sky Method, the Northern Emperor Method, and the Tianpeng Method, one has to take out special time to comprehend them wholeheartedly in order to make progress. Naturally, they are the Great Method. The two spells of Corpse Dog Flying Sword belong to this category.
Unable to use the Corpse Dog Flying Sword's flying method for the time being, Jiang Lin could only settle for the next best thing and use the cyan gold feather given by Xiao Qingluan. This feather has now merged with Jiang Lin's Taoist robe and, to a certain extent, has become a magic weapon. It is worthy of being a fairy from heaven. A mere feather can be so magical. Jiang Lin sighed in his heart, activated the lapis lazuli patterns on his Taoist robe, and headed straight for Kyoto. ………… The Prince's Eastern Palace, the back hall, and the bedroom of the Crown Prince. "Sister Mei, why can't you stay with me?!" The speaker was a boy of about fifteen or sixteen. He was wearing a noble robe, and his features were four or five points similar to those of the prince. However, compared to the prince's elegance, the boy looked more anxious and confused. In front of him stood a woman dressed as a maid, who looked almost exactly like Zhou Mei. This is also the Sister Mei mentioned by the Crown Prince. "Shh..." Sister Mei panicked and signaled the Crown Prince to be silent. She said softly, "Your Highness, you are a royal noble. I am just a small maid. You cannot call me sister. If the teachers in the East Palace find out, they will definitely reprimand Your Highness." Hearing this, the crown prince showed a touch of emotion on his face. He waved his sleeves and said decisively: "If anyone dares to talk nonsense, I will pull out his tongue!" This prince's every move already shows a certain domineering air. If he can succeed to the throne in the future, I think he will be the best choice. However, at this moment, this domineering attitude was used in the wrong place. Sister Mei listened to what the prince said, lowered her head and sobbed, her shoulders shook, and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes. Upon seeing this, the crown prince hurried forward to support Sister Mei and said softly, "Did I speak too loudly and scare you, sister?" "No... I am just touched. Your Highness treats me so well. I am willing to go through fire and water for you..." Sister Mei sobbed and choked, "But, the order cannot be disobeyed, I can no longer serve Your Highness..."
"Why on earth? Whose orders?!" Upon hearing this, the Crown Prince became angry again, with a hint of bloodshot in his eyes. That red was so dark and strange. "It's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..." Sister Mei whispered, "Yesterday, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince saw me and called my name, asking me to serve in the Crown Prince's Palace." Hearing this, the Crown Prince breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I don't know the reason. It turns out that it was an order from father. Sister Mei, relax. Since we are all in the East Palace, there is nothing to be afraid of." "At most, I will do my homework earlier and go look for my sister later..." "Your Highness." Sister Mei interrupted the Crown Prince's consolation, raised her head, smiled sadly, and said, "Your Highness, you want me to serve you in the inner palace..." "What?!!" The prince's eyes widened, his heart was pounding, and anger filled his whole body. The Prince's Inner Palace, another name is the Prince's Harem! The maids there are all considered the prince's concubines! In other words, his father had taken a fancy to Sister Mei and wanted her to sleep with him! Although entering the prince's inner palace does not necessarily mean that the prince will take a fancy to her, but since she was specifically named, she will naturally be... Moreover, even if she didn't, as long as she entered the prince's inner palace, she would be the prince's woman in name... A huge mountain of etiquette and law suddenly weighed down on the Crown Prince's heart. But immediately, the prince no longer cared about anything else and looked at Sister Mei, who was in tears, and her charming eyes. When those eyes looked into the Crown Prince's, it was as if she was born to submit to him and should be his exclusive lover. And soon, Sister Mei will belong to another man... When he thought of this, endless anger surged in his heart. "Damn it!" The prince's eyes were red, and his whole body was shaking. Anger rose in his heart. He pressed Sister Mei's shoulders with both hands and gritted his teeth, "I won't let anyone take you away from me! Anyone!" After saying that, he suddenly lowered his head and kissed those tender red lips. The Crown Prince has always been polite and has never done anything out of the ordinary. This kiss was very unfamiliar and he even bit Sister Mei's lip. A hint of sweetness lingered in the prince's mouth, as if giving him great courage. He looked at the beautiful woman with charming eyes in front of him, and felt a sense of heroism in his heart. "wait for me!" "Tonight, you are mine!" After saying that, without waiting for Sister Mei’s reaction, he turned around and quickly left the room.
Sister Mei was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly chased after him and said urgently: "Your Highness, don't do anything stupid!" "boom!" However, what responded to her was the prince's resolute back and the sound of the door closing loudly. Sister Mei was locked in the room. Through the crack in the door, she could vaguely see the prince heading straight for the prince's bedroom. The original anxiety and charm in her eyes disappeared without a trace. "Tsk." Sister Mei licked the corner of her lips and swallowed the blood. Then she raised her hand to wipe it, and her plump and tender fingertips were also covered with a hint of bright red. "We are both young men, but even this royal noble who has been immersed in the emperor's dragon aura since childhood is not as good as you..." She sighed softly, her eyes blurred, and murmured to herself: "My little Taoist priest, I wonder if I will have a chance in this life..." "What if I let you eat me?" The Crown Prince didn't know that his beloved sister Mei was thinking about another man after he left. His mind was now clouded by anger, and he was inspired to be heroic by the beauty who was "surrendering" to him. Walking like the wind, he arrived in front of his father's bedroom. The door of the prince's bedroom was wide open. The prince was handling official business in the hall, but there was a sense of perfunctoriness in his writing. The prince has no time to devote himself to official duties now. He just wants to finish the tasks at hand quickly and then go straight to the backyard. "There are actually people in the world who are so similar..." The prince didn't know how many times he had stopped writing and uttered such a sigh. What was in his mind was no longer the political situation in the court, but the maid who looked 80% similar to Mei Mei. As early as two days ago, the emperor's father suddenly rewarded the crown prince with a maid. The prince was already a little curious, and after meeting her by chance yesterday, he was even more astounded by her beauty. Without even giving it too much thought, he gave the order, asking the maid to come to his inner palace to serve him. "It's just that one of my son's originally chosen concubines was interfered with by Jiang Lin, and father didn't even say anything..." The prince muttered to himself, his eyes flickering, and sneered, "Father, you want to push your son to the opposite side of the Taoist sect, but why do you use such a shameless method?" "The prince's mansion has lost face, but at the root, wasn't your marriage interrupted?" "It's just that my son has suffered so much and has been wronged for nothing. Now I have to take his maid away... Well, whatever, I will hold a garden party tomorrow to choose a concubine for my son." "Anyway, it's time to get married. There are so many noble ladies in Kyoto, let my son choose any one he wants." His words were filled with the father's sincere love for his son, but at the root, there was a sense of guilt and remorse for compensation. How could the prince not see that his son had some feelings for the maid, or even fell in love with her at first sight? But if it was any other woman, it would be fine, but that maid was too similar to Zhou Mei. Zhou Mei died right in front of the prince's eyes, and her blood even splashed onto the corners of the prince's lips. He had nightmares for two consecutive nights and woke up in the middle of the night several times. He wanted to avenge his sister Mei and mobilize the prince's palace to kill the Taoist priest.
But in the end, I still held back. The only black law wizard in the world, a direct descendant of the North Pole, holds a very important position in Taoism. Although normally, the major Taoist lineages would not respect Jiang Lin very much, after all, he is just a teenager. But if Jiang Lin died at the hands of the priests in the Prince's Mansion, it is hard to say how the Taoists in the world would react. So, since my father wants to see me confront Jiang Lin, I must endure it. No matter how big the matter is, it is not as important as that position. However, the most urgent priority is still the official business at hand. The sooner I finish it, the sooner I can "rest". "tread……" Just as the prince was thinking, he suddenly heard footsteps and looked up with some annoyance. It has always been my rule that I don't want to be disturbed by anyone when I am handling official business. However, it was his own son who came in. "Son, why are you looking for your father?" The prince suppressed his anger, put down his pen, and asked softly. He has always been a kind father, and now he feels that he has let his son down, so his attitude becomes even more kind. But the prince found that his son, who had never been rude to him on weekdays, was now disheveled, with a flushed face and angry eyes. This made the prince frown, and he could basically guess what the reason was that made his son like this. "Father, why did you take my woman away?!" Sure enough, the words spoken by the Crown Prince through gritted teeth confirmed the Crown Prince's guess. The prince's face turned cold, and he said, "How can a man be blinded by beauty?" "She's just a maid!" As the prince saw his son's body trembling, he softened his tone and said, "Tomorrow, I will prepare a garden party for my father. All the noble ladies of the right age in Kyoto will gather together. You can choose the one you like to be your second wife." "No!" As soon as the prince finished speaking, the grandson spoke decisively, then suddenly raised his head, with anger in his scarlet eyes. "I want Sister Mei! She is mine! You can't take her away from me!" The prince was stunned for a moment, as if he had not expected his son to speak to him like this. "presumptuous!" The prince slammed the table and stood up, scolding: "Have you learned the principles of loyalty and filial piety?!" "Who gave you the courage to disobey your own father?" "She is just a maid. I will leave if I want to. How can you speak to me like that?!" The prince did not realize that in his heart, he had already placed the maid in a higher position than his own son.
He didn't seem to think that there was anything wrong with his behavior of competing with his son for the maid. "Zhongxiao, Zhongxiao again!" The crown prince suddenly raised his hand and swung his sleeve, almost hitting the prince in the face. "I've had enough of these two words!" "From childhood to adulthood, I have always listened to you! I will do whatever you tell me to do!" "The lights are on at midnight and the rooster crows at dawn. It's the best time for a man to study. I did it!" "I can drive a chariot, ride a warhorse, and draw a bow and arrow. I can do that, too!" "The Eastern Palace instructor praised me for my talent in both literature and martial arts. You laughed heartily, but how much of your happiness was because of me?!" "I don't care about these! But..." The Crown Prince completely released the anger in his heart, and traces of blood appeared on his teeth. "Why, why did you take my woman away! She's not a maid! She's my woman! My sister Mei!" The prince's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. He had never seen his son like this before. Looking at his angry son in front of him, he knew that he should communicate with him calmly at this moment. But for some reason, the image of the maid appeared in my mind. If you want to appease your son, you have to give up the maid... When the prince thought of this, he became a little hesitant. "I am the prince, and I am also your father. It is not your turn to tell me what to do. That maid has already bewitched your mind, and she cannot stay by your side." The prince said these words almost subconsciously, seemingly considering his son's perspective, in order to prevent his son from being controlled by a mere maid. But at the root... "I said, give it back to me!!" There was a cold light in the Crown Prince's hand, and that cold light was directed at the Crown Prince. The prince recognized the object. It was a dagger that he had forged himself as a gift for his son on his fifteenth birthday. But now, his son is pointing this dagger at him! The prince felt extremely angry and humiliated. He looked straight at his son and moved forward instead of retreating. "How dare you! Do you want to kill your father?! Why don't you accept it..." "Pfft!" The prince's voice was interrupted by the dull sound of a sharp weapon entering flesh. His expression froze, and he lowered his head blankly, looking at his heart, where a dagger was stuck, and blood was slowly flowing out along the edge of the dagger. It was not until this moment that he felt the pain in his heart.
"You want to steal my sister Mei! You deserve to die!" As the prince spoke, he suddenly pulled out the dagger. "puff!" Blood spurted out from the prince's heart and splashed onto the prince's face. He could not stand and staggered to the ground. His vitality was fading away at a rapid speed, and the anger in the prince's eyes disappeared, replaced by confusion. What's wrong with you? Why would his son want to kill himself? I…… My thoughts stopped abruptly here. The prince's face was covered in blood. As he looked at the corpse in front of him, the blood in his eyes slowly faded away. "Father? Father..." The grandson stared blankly at himself and his fallen father. He...killed his father? The toothache is so severe that I can see my wisdom tooth coming out from the gap between my gums. I asked the doctor, but he said it can’t be removed because of inflammation. I don’t know how long I have to endure it… (End of this chapter)
