Chapter 929 The Sick Prince

The Crown Prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty is a strange man.

There are three strange things about him.

First, his status is strange. He has been the Crown Prince for thirty years. This is the longest in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Especially for such a long time, he could have ascended the throne but did not. He is the first in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Second, his physique is strange. The Crown Prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty has been known for his talent since birth. However, he suffered from injuries and illnesses in the later period. Even if he was protected by the dragon energy of the imperial way, he should have died long ago in the eyes of ordinary people. But not only did he not die, he has survived to this day. The most interesting thing is that the more seriously ill he is, the higher his cultivation level is. Anyway, according to rumors, he has reached the peak of the Great Saint in his thirties. I am afraid that few people know what his cultivation level is now.

Third, his character is strange. He was born in the royal family and was born at the peak. However, facing the throne and the hegemony of the world, he seems to care nothing. Others are happy to take power in the court, but he is good. He will push it if he can, and find a way to push it if he can't. He is best at pretending to be sick. If we talk about what he cares about, it is family affection, which is the last thing the royal family needs. It is well known that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has only one wife, who is always with him, and only one son, who died young, but he misses her every day. He is definitely a perfect husband and a perfect father. However, no one dares to say that he is a good king, because he has never governed the country.

Now this Sanqi Crown Prince is wrapped in a thick fur coat, holding a fishing rod and fishing in the Crown Prince's Mansion.

Yes, people find a beautiful place by the river or by the lake to fish. And this one, it is said that due to his poor health, simply let someone lead a stream into the hall, gather it into a pond in the center, and then drain it from another exit to use it as a fishing pond.

Of course, the hall with a pond is also very impressive, with a height of five feet and a radius of one hundred feet, but it is strange that this hall is completely built with cold jade, and there is no heating stove or anything like that. The hall is cold and chilly.

Jiang Fan couldn't help but wonder, isn't this person ill, why does he have to build such a cold jade palace? Is he afraid that his physique is not weak enough? By the way, if you are not afraid of the cold, why are you wrapped in a big fur coat? I can't figure it out.

But with this appearance, you can't tell that he is a crown prince. The prince's name is Ji Zongyi. It is said that he is extremely talented. In the past, people praised him for his wisdom and martial arts, and he had the appearance of a saintly emperor. But in front of him, he is clearly a weak and sick person with a sluggish breath.

Rumor has it that His Royal Highness the Prince often sits in this hall to fish. But he never eats the fish he catches, and he shares it with the servants. But he likes to cook, and he always grills or cooks it himself.

The terrible thing is that His Royal Highness the Prince's cooking skills are really terrible. The food he makes makes people sad and dogs cry.

But after all, he is the prince. Do you dare not eat the reward given to you? So, over time, the old servants in the Prince's Mansion almost lost their sense of taste. Newcomers often eat with tears in their eyes and vomit when they return to their rooms.

However, apart from this hobby, the prince is still a pretty good person. Although he doesn't like to talk and is sickly, he has a very good relationship with people.

When Jiang Fan saw him, he was swinging the rod, and his technique was very unprofessional. Master Jiang shook his head inwardly.

Zeng Chun, the prince's tutor, asked Jiang Fan to wait, and he walked over quickly.

"Your Highness, the King of Zhenxi wants to see you."

The prince was wrapped in a fur coat, and even his face was deeply sunken in it, so his appearance could not be seen clearly. It took a long time before a sickly voice was heard saying, "Da Zhou, where is the King of Zhenxi..."

Zeng Chun hurriedly said, "Your Highness, you have lived in the deep palace for a long time, you don't know, a month ago, His Majesty ordered me to go and bring in a young hero, and conferred him the title of King of the West to protect the country."

"Hmm... there is such a thing... he disappeared, it's fine as long as my father decides, why do you want to see me..."

Zeng Chun sighed helplessly, "Prince, the King of Zhenxi is one of the four kings, you should see him..."

The prince suddenly coughed violently, it was so heartbreaking that Jiang Fan was worried that he would cough out his lungs from a distance.

Zeng Chun seemed to be used to it. After he finished coughing, he handed over a silk scarf: "Your Highness, the person is here. Why don't you take the time to meet him? His Majesty specifically instructed that if you don't meet him, I can't report back."

The prince said, "Since you are embarrassed, then just meet him."

Jiang Fan couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He was afraid that his subjects would be embarrassed. This person was really as easy-going as the rumors said.

"But, just meet him. Let's not talk about state affairs. I'm not strong enough..."

Zeng Chun smiled and said, "Thank you for your understanding, Prince. But you are good at fishing, and you and the King of Zhenxi have the same hobbies. You may have a common language."

"Oh?" The prince seemed to be a little interested: "Well, ask him to come forward. It's right here. Oh, by the way, go and get another fishing rod."

"Yes, yes, Your Highness, wait a moment."

Zeng Chun then led Jiang Fan closer.

"Your Highness, this is the new King of Zhenxi, Xiqin Jiangfan."

"Xiqin?" The prince seemed to be stunned for a moment, twisted his body, revealed his face from the fur coat, and looked at Jiang Fan.

At this time, Jiang Fan also saw the appearance of the prince.

At one glance, even Jiang Fan could not help but be stunned on the spot.

And the prince was also stunned at the same time.

There was no other reason, the two looked too similar, except that the man was obviously older and a little sickly thin, Jiang Fan almost thought it was himself in middle age.

The prince was also stunned on the spot, and the two stared at each other, the scene was very strange.

Zeng Chun seemed to have expected this result a long time ago, and coughed lightly: "Your Highness, Your Highness, I will take my leave first."

The two were awakened by him. Before Jiang Fan could say anything, the prince suddenly jumped out from the fur pile, pressed Jiang Fan's shoulder, and looked at his face carefully, as if he wanted to see into his bones.

Zeng Chun hurriedly said: "Your Highness, Your Highness, this is the King of Zhenxi, Jiang Fan..."

The prince ignored him at all. Zeng Chun had no choice but to look at Jiang Fan deeply, bowed and retreated.

Jiang Fan was extremely shocked at this moment. It turned out that what the booklet said was true. He really looked too much like this person. How could it be 70% or 80%? If he was older, it would definitely be 90%.

If there is only one difference, Jiang Fan is a little whiter and more handsome than him.

The prince pressed Jiang Fan's shoulders tightly with both hands, his face was abnormally red, and his expression seemed extremely excited. Jiang Fan knew that his heartbeat was several times faster.

At that moment, Jiang Fan's heart couldn't help but beat a few times faster.

The prince's lips trembled a little: "Is it you, is it you..."

Jiang Fan hurriedly said: "Your Highness, I am Jiang Fan, I greet Your Highness."

The prince seemed not to hear what he said at all: "You are back? You are so big..."

Jiang Fan hurriedly said again: "Your Highness, Jiang Fan, I greet Your Highness!"

The latter was stunned and stared at him. Suddenly, a hot current emerged from his palm, suddenly passed through Jiang Fan's body, circulated a circle, and then was taken back from the other palm.

However, the prince was shocked, "This... How is it possible, how could this happen!"
